Chapter 571: Chapter 567: Enlightenment in a Desperate Situation

Even Lin Hao was startled.

Tuoba Yangyu’s speed was simply unbelievable.

In that moment of surprise, the giant hand descended and snatched his Primordial Body.

Seeing his Primordial Body on the verge of being crushed, Lin Hao’s mind raced, trying to make it vanish.

However, to Lin Hao’s astonishment, he found he couldn’t do it.

Making a split-second decision, Lin Hao severed the connection between his mind and his Primordial Body.

At the same time, the giant hand clenched, and the Primordial Body, now disconnected from Lin Hao, was crushed before it could dissipate on its own.

’That cyan airflow must be a manifestation of Tuoba Yangyu’s Bloodline Secret Skill, imbued with its power. I’m normally not afraid of royal bloodlines, but Tuoba Yangyu’s Bloodline Secret Skill surpasses that of an ordinary royal body...’

Lin Hao’s mind spun as he tried to come up with a countermeasure.

But before he could formulate a plan, the cyan airflow had already expanded, missing him by a hair’s breadth.

The instant Lin Hao moved, Tuoba Yangyu’s large hand appeared in the spot he had just occupied.

The cyan airflow originated from the power of Tuoba Yangyu’s bloodline and was an inseparable part of him. Wherever the airflow was, he could instantly appear.

Lin Hao understood the source of Tuoba Yangyu’s speed.

However, this realization was of no help.

With a tremor in the void, the cyan gas enveloped the entire area.

PFFT!

Lin Hao’s body was immediately and heavily wounded.

Within the cyan gas, Tuoba Yangyu was omnipresent. No matter how fast Lin Hao moved, he couldn’t escape.

"Even with your avatar technique, you cannot escape my Bloodline Secret Skill." Tuoba Yangyu’s voice seemed to come from all directions.

Amidst the voice, Lin Hao lost count of how many punches he took.

At this moment, Tuoba Yangyu seemed to be attacking purely to vent his anger, using only a fraction of his power.

He controlled his strength with precision, ensuring Lin Hao felt pain without dealing a fatal blow.

The Godslaying Celestial Slash Skill activated automatically to counter the force, but it was useless.

Inside the cyan gas was Tuoba Yangyu’s personal world, and he was its absolute master.

Lin Hao coughed up mouthfuls of blood as his body was mercilessly assaulted.

Even so, Lin Hao’s eyes remained bright, gleaming with a brilliant light.

This adversity sharpened his focus, and the Dao Sound he had once heard began to resonate in his mind.

Lin Hao smiled.

Unleashing his Primordial Body and True Self Divine Soul together was his strongest attack, yet Lin Hao had intentionally held back his True Self Divine Soul. Although he had used the power of his avatar, he was still keeping something in reserve.

He was waiting for this very moment.

Attaining enlightenment in a desperate situation was Lin Hao’s goal for the day, and he was now close.

All he needed was to add a little more fuel to the fire.

Just as this thought arose, Lin Hao heard Tuoba Yangyu speak: "Lin Hao, this is your last chance! If you don’t use your True Self Divine Soul now, you will never have another opportunity to turn the tables!"

"Tuoba Yangyu, you coward. To think you want to use me to achieve your breakthrough. Do you have any idea how despicable your actions are? Like a wild dog snatching food from a baby’s hands," Lin Hao retorted.

PFFT!

Before he could finish his sentence, Lin Hao was struck by a heavy blow.

But Tuoba Yangyu still didn’t deliver a killing blow.

"Tuoba Yangyu, look around you! The disciples of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion are all looking down on you. Your Bloodline Secret Skill may fill this space, but you wouldn’t dare cross the line and let it touch them..."

"Shut up!" Before Lin Hao could finish, Tuoba Yangyu’s roar echoed.

In the next moment, the cyan airflow vanished. Lin Hao felt his body tighten, completely bound.

The cyan airflow, which could manifest all things, had transformed into cyan ropes.

"Lin Hao, since you’re so eager to die, I’ll grant your wish!" Killing intent flared in Tuoba Yangyu’s eyes.

He then pointed a finger.

At that instant, every hair on Lin Hao’s body stood on end.

The threat of death was overwhelming.

Even if he survived this finger strike, he would be left clinging to his last breath.

The Godslaying Celestial Slash Skill began to circulate at an unprecedented speed, and the True Essence inside Lin Hao’s body roared like thunder.

Not only that, but even his Lifebound True Blood began to glow.

In his Upper Dantian, his True Self Divine Soul strained to break free, but Lin Hao forcefully suppressed it.

For all these things to react so violently, one could only imagine the terror of Tuoba Yangyu’s finger strike.

In this moment, Lin Hao summoned the Dao Sound, letting it echo throughout his entire mind.

He had reached a truly desperate point. Lin Hao intended to comprehend the Dao Sound right now.

No one knew what Lin Hao was thinking, so all the Martial Artists who could witness this scene reacted.

Still gathered outside the mysterious Holy Hall of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion, the five elders’ eyes glinted as they peered through the void, watching the entire battle between Lin Hao and Tuoba Yangyu.

Previously, none of them had shown any reaction, but now, their eyes were wide.

Liu Bo was the first to lose his patience and made a move.

The other elders didn’t stop him, as they all understood the gravity of the situation.

However, his attack vanished like a stone tossed into the ocean, swallowed directly by the void.

Liu Bo turned his head, staring in the direction of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion’s Holy Hall.

He was a Spirit Transformation Realm Peak Martial Artist. On the Celestial Yang Continent, he knew without a doubt who could accomplish such a feat so silently.

The ancestor’s divine will was stopping him.

Liu Bo couldn’t understand why, nor did he have time to ponder it.

In the past, he would have simply let it go, but Lin Hao was different. He was quite possibly the hope of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion on the Celestial Yang Continent, perhaps even the hope of the entire continent. Liu Bo could not allow anything to happen to him.

His judgment clouded by concern, Liu Bo took a step forward, intending to rush over personally.

But at that moment, the Holy Hall trembled, and even someone as powerful as Liu Bo found his body frozen, completely unable to move.

"Don’t move. The ancestor has made a decision," Guan Zhengyang said, instructing the other elders to stand by and watch.

At the same time as the elders realized Lin Hao was about to perish, the surrounding upper-courtyard disciples of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion also noticed.

Seeing this, almost everyone shook their heads. Some watched with schadenfreude, others with disappointment.

As upper-courtyard disciples, they naturally knew the meaning of the bell that had rung today. That was why they had come to watch, to see what made this peerless genius, so highly regarded by the elders, superior to them.

But the result they were witnessing now was a disappointment.

While the combat prowess Lin Hao displayed wasn’t bad, it certainly wasn’t at the level of a peerless genius. Several of them believed that if they were at Lin Hao’s cultivation level facing Tuoba Yangyu, they could have done everything he did, and perhaps even better.

In their eyes, Lin Hao did not live up to his reputation.

They were especially disdainful when they saw him with his eyes closed, seemingly waiting for death.

But not all the upper-courtyard disciples of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion remained idle. Someone made a move.

Tuoba Yangyu thrust his finger forward. Lin Hao had gathered the Dao Sound in his mind, planning to achieve enlightenment in this desperate moment. However, just as he was starting to make some headway, the oppressive force vanished.

Lin Hao opened his eyes to see that Tuoba Yangyu’s finger had been stopped by a hand.
