Chapter 570 - 566: Void-Sealing Bloodline Secret Skill

Chapter 570: Chapter 566: Void-Sealing Bloodline Secret Skill

Tuoba Yangyu thrust a finger forward. Lin Hao tried to retreat but found himself trapped by a strange, restrictive power.

It only lasted for a moment, but in that instant, Tuoba Yangyu’s finger was already upon him.

Despite Lin Hao using an Emperor Art, the force of that single finger sent him flying backward.

PTOO!

Blood arced through the air.

Having landed his strike, Tuoba Yangyu did not give chase. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his icy gaze fixed on Lin Hao.

He was supremely confident, his disdainful gaze making it clear that he didn’t see Lin Hao as a threat in the slightest.

As he flew backward, just before landing, Lin Hao slapped the ground and flipped through the air, landing perfectly on his feet opposite Tuoba Yangyu.

Now, at least a hundred meters separated them.

A single finger from Tuoba Yangyu had sent Lin Hao flying such a distance. One could only imagine his terrifying power.

Lin Hao’s expression was incredibly grave.

That finger strike from Tuoba Yangyu had nearly pierced straight through his body.

Lin Hao’s physical body had already reached a terrifyingly resilient state, one that even ordinary Spiritual Artifacts couldn’t harm. He was astonished that a single finger from Tuoba Yangyu could possess such might.

Most importantly, Lin Hao could clearly sense that Tuoba Yangyu hadn’t even used his full strength in that attack.

’His finger changed color. He must have used a Bloodline Secret Skill...’ Lin Hao’s mind raced as he replayed the attack, searching for a way to counter it.

Just then, Tuoba Yangyu spoke. "I’ll give you five breaths. Use your Divine Soul, or die!"

"Five..." Tuoba Yangyu’s voice was frigid as he began to count down.

Lin Hao didn’t move.

"Four..."

Lin Hao remained motionless all the way until Tuoba Yangyu reached the final number.

Before the word "one" had even faded, Tuoba Yangyu was already in front of Lin Hao, striking once more.

But this time, just as Tuoba Yangyu’s finger was about to reach him, Lin Hao’s body abruptly vanished.

Immediately, Tuoba Yangyu’s figure flickered and vanished as well.

At the same time, Lin Hao’s form reappeared...

The next moment, the area was filled with a flurry of afterimages and the escalating sound of rushing wind.

They were moving so fast that an ordinary person wouldn’t have been able to see their figures at all.

It was a high-speed chase. Both fighters wanted to take down the other, but their speeds were so similar that neither could gain an advantage.

The stalemate lasted only for a moment before the very space around them seemed to distort.

It was Tuoba Yangyu, striking out with his finger!

Each of his finger strikes was aimed at Lin Hao. Although Lin Hao dodged them, the force of the attacks was driven into the empty air.

Or perhaps, that had been his ultimate goal all along.

For as he continuously struck out, a cyan circle began to form above his head.

The cyan circle, with Tuoba Yangyu at its center, enveloped an area dozens of meters wide.

Tuoba Yangyu stopped, a hint of a smile playing in his eyes.

Lin Hao also stopped, trapped within the cyan circle.

In the next instant, Tuoba Yangyu’s figure blurred, but instead of attacking Lin Hao, he was retreating.

A moment later, he had already appeared outside the circle.

The moment Tuoba Yangyu moved, Lin Hao moved as well, lunging after him.

Lin Hao was incredibly fast, but he was forced to retreat just as quickly.

BOOM!

Tuoba Yangyu escaped the circle. But as Lin Hao reached the edge to follow, the circle in the void shuddered. Lin Hao felt as if he’d been struck by lightning and was thrown back, unable to exit.

"Since you’re unwilling to use your Divine Soul, I’ll have no choice but to start Refining you." Tuoba Yangyu stared at Lin Hao as if he were prey, his eyes burning with a feverish light.

Lin Hao didn’t answer, simply throwing a punch.

However, the punch rebounded with equal force.

The cyan circle floated overhead. The space below it was empty, yet it seemed an invisible force had formed there. Not only was Lin Hao trapped, but he was also being repelled by that very force.

Lin Hao didn’t dare strike again. He moved like lightning within the circle, dodging until the rebounding force dissipated a few breaths later.

"What did you do?" Lin Hao’s expression was one of shock.

"My Bloodline Secret Skill seals the void, Lin Hao. You have no chance left. Oh, that’s right—if you use your Divine Soul, you might just have a sliver of hope," Tuoba Yangyu said with a smirk.

"Is that so?" Hearing Tuoba Yangyu’s words, Lin Hao smiled as well.

Tuoba Yangyu was startled. He then watched as Lin Hao’s body actually vanished from within the circle created by his Bloodline Secret Skill.

Another Martial Artist was also greatly shocked.

A Heaven-Breaking Pavilion disciple watching the fight saw this, and his eyes widened in utter disbelief.

His previously casual posture straightened, and he began to watch intently.

Back on the battlefield, warning bells went off in Tuoba Yangyu’s mind. Without a second thought, he slapped his palm toward a specific spot.

Lin Hao’s body appeared right there.

However, just as his palm strike was launched, the figure vanished once more.

BOOM!

A moment later, it was Tuoba Yangyu who was sent flying backward. At the same time, blood arced through the air.

Lin Hao’s attack had found its mark.

The young disciple who had been watching the fight so closely shot to his feet, his gaze fixed on one spot.

As for Tuoba Yangyu, he was absolutely seething.

He, an existence infinitely close to the Ninth Layer of Soul Gathering Realm, had just been wounded by a mere Seventh Layer Soul Gathering Realm Martial Artist. To him, this was an utter disgrace.

Furthermore, Lin Hao’s attack had been incredibly powerful. If he hadn’t detected it in the nick of time, he would likely be severely injured right now.

"Seal!" Enraged, the mid-air Tuoba Yangyu let out a thunderous roar.

The circle in the void, which had originally covered an area dozens of meters wide, suddenly expanded to envelop an area hundreds of meters wide.

His own body was now enveloped within it.

His backward momentum came to an abrupt halt, and Tuoba Yangyu’s body hung suspended in the air.

"If I’m not mistaken, that’s the legendary Avatar Secret Skill. It seems I’ve underestimated you." Tuoba Yangyu straightened his body, standing tall in the air. He glanced in one direction before fixing his gaze outside the circle.

Lin Hao was standing there, outside the circle’s perimeter.

Lin Hao followed Tuoba Yangyu’s gaze and saw a figure.

Ignoring the unspoken meaning in Tuoba Yangyu’s gaze, Lin Hao looked back with a noncommittal expression.

"So it really is the Avatar Secret Skill. This battle has been worthwhile." Lin Hao’s attitude confirmed everything. As Tuoba Yangyu spoke, his eyes suddenly blazed with intensity.

With that single glare, the space around them changed dramatically, filling with dense streams of cyan energy.

A massive hand materialized from thin air and lunged, trying to crush Lin Hao.

Tuoba Yangyu had attacked.

Within the cyan currents, Lin Hao once again felt that restrictive power.

This time, however, Lin Hao didn’t let Tuoba Yangyu have his way.

Because Lin Hao’s true body was no longer there.

The target of Tuoba Yangyu’s attack was his Primordial Body.

With a mere thought, the Primordial Body appeared in a different location.

The restrictive power was strong, but Lin Hao’s true body wasn’t inside it, and his mind was not bound.

A single thought could shift the Primordial Body’s position, effectively giving it the ability to teleport.

And yet, even so, the massive hand reappeared right alongside the Primordial Body, lunging for it once more.
