Chapter 486: High-Grade Pure Yuan Treasure: Flaming Feather Sword
Whoosh!
Lin Langtian's attack was exceptionally swift, while Sha Li was momentarily sluggish due to the internal backlash from their earlier clash. Hence, he could only stare in fear at Lin Langtian's murderous charge.
Finally, Sha Li understood how ruthless this young man truly was.
"Junior, you dare!"
However, just as Lin Langtian's flaming feather was about to pierce Sha Li's skull, a thunderous roar echoed from behind, shaking the surroundings.
Two shadowy figures appeared in a flash beside Sha Li. One of them thrust out two curled fingers fiercely.
Swoosh!
An immensely powerful Yuan Power condensed between his fingers, surrounded by layers of deathly black qi.
"Elder Mo Sha!"
Lin Langtian's eyes sharpened instantly, recognizing the powerful aura, particularly the familiar death qi surrounding it. It was Elder Mo Sha, the Death Profound Realm Great Completion expert he had previously encountered.
Despite his attack being blocked, Lin Langtian's killing intent surged even stronger. Without retreating, the fiery feather in his hand collided head-on with Elder Mo Sha's deadly finger strike.
Bang!
Under this direct clash, Lin Langtian's attack crumbled instantly, pain jolting through his palm. Yet, his dark eyes flickered dangerously. Enduring the pain, he swung his right leg in a fierce arc, smashing directly into Sha Li's chest like a blade.
A violent shockwave erupted as Lin Langtian and Sha Li simultaneously flew backward. Lin Langtian grunted softly, while Sha Li let out a scream, spitting blood.
A petite figure quickly appeared behind Lin Langtian, pressing a small hand gently against his back, using blue energy to halt his momentum. Liu Da and his two brothers quickly moved forward, vigilantly eyeing Elder Mo Sha.
"Brother Langtian, are you alright?" Mu Lingshan asked anxiously.
"I'm fine," Lin Langtian shook his head, shifting his gaze forward. Beside Sha Li now stood not only Elder Mo Sha but also another elderly man.
This newcomer was thin and gaunt, with sunken eyes and gray hair. On his cheek was a red shark tattoo, clearly marking him as another Blood Demon Shark Clan elder.
Both elders stood side by side, staring at Lin Langtian with sinister expressions.
"That's Elder Mo Sha and Elder Xue Sha! They're infamous powerhouses from the Blood Demon Shark Clan. Who would've thought both would appear at once?"
"Two Death Profound Realm Great Completion experts... the Blood Demon Shark Clan is really pulling out all stops to seize that black token!"
"Haha, this is going to be interesting!"
The surrounding crowd immediately began whispering upon recognizing these two infamous elders from the Blood Demon Shark Clan.
Meanwhile, on the stone pavilion above, Ao Xuan wore an ugly expression, his earlier words now coming back to haunt him.
"It seems your prediction was off. Sha Li's Demon Shark Scales were indeed broken by Lin Langtian," Tang Xinlian remarked lightly, her beautiful lips curving gently.
Ao Xuan's face darkened, his gaze fixating on the flaming feather in Lin Langtian's hand. "I underestimated him. I didn't think he'd possess such a treasure."
Ao Xuan understood that without this feather sword, Lin Langtian wouldn't have easily broken through Sha Li's defense.
Tang Xinlian smiled quietly, not bothering to debate further. In her eyes, a weapon was also part of one's strength.
Watching Lin Langtian again, a spark of interest flickered in her fiery eyes.
Ao Xuan noticed her attention toward Lin Langtian, jealousy rising within him. He coldly sneered, "This brat is overly arrogant. Even if he defeated Sha Li, he's finished now that Elders Mo Sha and Xue Sha have appeared."
Tang Xinlian remained silent, curious about how Lin Langtian would handle this crisis. After all, even she wasn't entirely confident against a Death Profound Realm Great Completion expert, let alone Lin Langtian, who was merely Half-Step Death Profound Realm.
Meanwhile, on the stone-paved street below:
"You shameless old turtle, resorting to sneak attacks!" Mu Lingshan angrily glared at Elder Mo Sha, unreservedly scolding him.
Elder Mo Sha glanced coldly at Mu Lingshan, then turned to Lin Langtian with a sneer. "Junior, you truly have a ruthless heart. Killing the Four Mad Shark Generals wasn't enough; you even tried to finish off Sha Li."
"What, does your Blood Demon Shark Clan think it can kill me, but I can't strike back?" Lin Langtian retorted sarcastically. "You don't have that kind of strength."
Hearing this, those nearby gasped inwardly. Lin Langtian remained so defiant even against Elder Mo Sha. Was he truly confident or merely arrogant?
"Sharp-tongued brat!" Elder Mo Sha's eyes flashed murderously.
Killing intent surged around Elder Mo Sha as he turned slightly toward Elder Xue Sha. "Xue Sha, take care of those three. Leave this brat to me."
Elder Xue Sha studied Liu Da and the others, frowning. "Just three Small Success Death Profound Realm experts? You called me here for this?"
"Don't underestimate them," Elder Mo Sha warned. "They've mastered the Three Beast Yuan Transfer Technique. Combined, they're comparable to a Great Completion expert."
"Oh? So that explains it," Elder Xue Sha's eyes narrowed thoughtfully, interest rising in his expression. "Then let's see how formidable this ancient martial art truly is."
After this exchange, Elder Xue Sha charged toward Liu Da and his brothers, leaving Elder Mo Sha glaring at Lin Langtian, his grin sinister. "Junior, today will mark your end!"
"Many have said that to me before, yet they all ended up in hell," Lin Langtian countered coldly.
Swish!
With a flick of his sleeve, Lin Langtian summoned the fiery feather, which transformed into a massive flaming longsword suspended in midair, emitting terrifying energy waves.
"A Pure Yuan Treasure?" Elder Mo Sha's eyes brightened, greed filling his face. "To think you'd possess such a precious item."
With his sharp perception, Elder Mo Sha immediately recognized the flaming feather sword as a high-grade Pure Yuan Treasure, an exceptionally rare and powerful artifact. Even within his Blood Demon Shark Clan, such a treasure was considered top-tier. No wonder Sha Li's scales were easily pierced.
"Such a treasure shouldn't be held by a junior like you," Elder Mo Sha sneered greedily. "Let me keep it safe for you."
"Then show me if you have the strength to take it," Lin Langtian mocked coldly.
The flaming feather sword was no ordinary weapon. In truth, Ling Yi had casually crafted it from one of her ordinary feathers in the Great Thousand World. Despite being merely a feather, anything from Ling Yi, a divine beast, would be peerless in the Tian Xuan Continent. After being refined, its sharpness surpassed most treasures, reaching the level of a high-grade Pure Yuan Treasure.
Previously, Lin Langtian's strength was insufficient to wield it, but now, as a Half-Step Death Profound Realm expert, he could finally activate it. Ling Yi, aware of his predicament, had thus gifted him this powerful artifact.
Rumble!
The massive flaming feather sword hovered above, emitting powerful fluctuations that distorted space within hundreds of feet. The onlookers quickly retreated, astonished by Lin Langtian's display of strength. Clearly, even Elder Mo Sha wouldn't find this an easy fight.
"How can a mere Half-Step Death Profound Realm brat wield such terrifying power?" Elder Mo Sha muttered uneasily, staring at the sword.
Recognizing the threat, Elder Mo Sha swiftly resolved to strike first and eliminate Lin Langtian. But just as he moved, the flaming sword suddenly vanished without a trace, even eluding Elder Mo Sha's sharp senses.
"Impossible! It disappeared into the void!" Elder Mo Sha's eyes widened in shock. Before he could react, heat surged around him as countless fiery swords emerged, surrounding him like a deadly formation.
Swish!
Without hesitation, these swords stabbed rapidly toward Elder Mo Sha, forcing him into a defensive stance. Dark energy exploded from his body, forming multiple black shark shields to withstand the attacks.
Bang! Bang!
Sharp clashes rang out, dissolving both attacks into sparks. Elder Mo Sha breathed deeply, his face grave.
"Impressive reaction," Lin Langtian smiled darkly. "But how about this?"
He snapped his fingers, causing the flaming sword to tremble and split into hundreds of smaller feather swords, instantly encircling Elder Mo Sha again, forming a massive sword array.
Under Lin Langtian's control, the fiery sword formation rotated slowly, its temperature surging rapidly. Soon, within the array, a gigantic flaming feather sword over a thousand feet long took shape.
Observing this formidable weapon, Lin Langtian exhaled lightly. Even he was captivated by the sheer power displayed.
"Now, Elder Mo Sha," Lin Langtian sneered chillingly, "it's time to face your worst nightmare."
With those words, the enormous flaming feather sword trembled slightly before locking onto Elder Mo Sha's figure, instantly making the elder's hair stand on end with dread.
