Luo Yunshang had never imagined that, in a situation where she held the absolute advantage, things would suddenly turn out like this. But now, it was too late for her to reverse the tide. Looking at Lin Yun, it was clear he was fully prepared.
"I knew long ago that you weren't so easy to deal with, so I prepared many methods just for you. And now, I can finally bring all of them to bear upon you."
Lin Yun watched the expression on Luo Yunshang's face, the corners of his lips curling upwards. This was a complete, all-around suppression. No matter what method she used, she no longer had the ability to face him head-on. The gap between them had widened infinitely in that one moment.
Though Luo Yunshang's heart was filled with unwillingness, faced with such a bizarre opponent, even she was now helpless.
On the battlefield, the disciples of the Crimson Ghost Sect had been watching Luo Yunshang's every move. They had originally believed that she would be able to lead them to slaughter their way out of the siege and make these reckless fools pay the price. Who could have known that the great battle had only just begun, and Luo Yunshang had already ended up in this state?
Even if no one said it, they all understood. Luo Yunshang likely had no chance of survival. It was obvious that the opponent they now faced was far more difficult to deal with than they had ever imagined. In their eyes, she was now in a truly desperate situation.
Faced with Lin Yun's surging assault, coupled with that mysterious Mystic Netherworld Aberrant Flame, Luo Yunshang no longer had the confidence to continue this fight. She understood that no matter how she fought, it was unlikely to end well for her.
Having thought it through, Luo Yunshang naturally had no intention of staying. She turned and tried to flee. As for the mission this time, that was no longer something she could think about. Right now, she just hoped to escape this damned place as quickly as possible.
Lin Yun, watching her flee, didn't say much. He just quietly took his aim. Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone present, an arrow instantly caught up with the escaping Luo Yunshang.
A terrifying energy exploded. The sheer, overwhelming force of it, like a wind that withers away rotten wood, made everyone's jaws drop, unable to believe what they were seeing. They could never have imagined just how powerful Luo Yunshang was, but in this battle, she had been utterly and completely defeated. And after this defeat, she would never have the chance to return to this battlefield again.
Xun Zhesheng and Gan Botao had originally wanted to help her win the battle. But now, they had no other thoughts. They turned and prepared to leave this land of strife.
"I never would have thought that even an existence as powerful as the Saintess would be defeated," Xun Zhesheng said with a sigh. Even now, he still couldn't believe it. That arrogant and imperious Saintess, who had lorded over them all, had not even been able to last long before being defeated by Lin Yun. The terrifying power that Lin Yun had displayed throughout the process was something they could never have imagined.
After finishing off Luo Yunshang, Lin Yun immediately led his army to surround the tomb.
Some of the Crimson Ghost Sect disciples put up a futile, last-ditch resistance. Others, with the thought of embracing death, charged directly into the tomb.
It could be said that this battle had been far easier than Lin Yun had imagined. He had originally thought their losses would be severe, but after he had made his move, he had single-handedly reversed the entire situation. For now, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Fang Yu'er quickly came over to his side. She looked at Lin Yun, still in a state of disbelief. The Saintess's status in the Crimson Ghost Sect was immense. Everyone knew just how terrifying she was. No one had ever thought that they could one day defeat such a powerful figure.
But this time, Lin Yun had done it. And the power he had displayed in the process was truly worthy of admiration. Even Fang Yu'er had to admit, it was no wonder this man had achieved his current status. In the strictest sense, Lin Yun was truly terrifying.
At that moment, Lin Yun's lips curled up slightly, and he looked at Fang Yu'er with a smile. "You must have been worried before, wondering what you would do if I lost this battle. Although you did betray the Crimson Ghost Sect, it was all for the sake of survival. There's nothing to be ashamed of."
Now that Lin Yun had dealt with most of the Crimson Ghost Sect's trouble, the only ones left were hiding in the tomb. But he wasn't planning on rushing in just yet. What threats did this tomb hold? He couldn't be sure yet. And his own situation wasn't that great either, so he needed to make preparations before acting. If he were to run into some unexpected situation, he needed to be able to resist at a moment's notice.
Seeing Lin Yun's serious expression, Fang Yu'er just snorted from the side. "I did indeed think for a moment that you would be utterly defeated in this battle. If that had happened, I'm afraid I would have died along with you. But my luck is pretty good. You're actually trustworthy."
In a situation where everyone thought he would lose, Lin Yun had defeated Luo Yunshang. This was nothing short of a legend.
Seeing her serious expression, Lin Yun just smiled serenely. It was true, for many people, this was an impossible feat. But for him, who could see through his opponent's weaknesses, dealing with her was as easy as reaching out and grabbing something.
Just then, Fang Yu'er looked in the direction of the tomb and asked curiously, "Didn't you come here this time to find out what's going on? The answer is right in front of you. Aren't you going to go down and take a look?"
Lin Yun shook his head. He didn't even need to use his People Panel. Just by looking from a distance, he could feel an incredibly terrifying resentment. It was enough to show that the level of danger in this place was beyond what an ordinary person could imagine. Although Lin Yun was very confident in his own strength, he wasn't about to rashly gamble with his own life.
Fang Yu'er had thought that Lin Yun would charge in immediately. She hadn't expected him to be even calmer than she had imagined. Faced with this rather mysterious matter, he was always able to remain composed.
"You're an interesting one," she said with a sigh. "But since you've already come all this way, why don't you go in and take a look?"
Lin Yun shook his head. "The threats we see are not just the ones right in front of us."
After this battle, the disciples of the Crimson Ghost Sect had been driven into the tomb. Only a very small number had escaped, and they could no longer affect the overall situation.
Lin Yun's side, on the other hand, had received numerous reinforcements. Not to mention the support from the Beast Taming Sect, even that Prince had not disappointed him.
