Chapter 192: Fall of the Blood Wolf Gang

The news of Yue Shan's assassination blew across the scene like wind. The Blood Wolf Gang troop's will to fight practically vanished in an instant, together with their previous ferociousness. In their place, was an endless panic.

Everyone knew that with the loss of Yue Shan, it would be difficult for the Blood Wolf Gang to establish themselves in Yan City again. Furthermore, under the furious counter-attack of the Thousand Gold Association, it was likely that the former would be completely cleaned out from Yan City.

This top faction which had towered over Yan City for about a dozen years was now completely defeated, and the one who had caused this change was merely a youngster who was not even twenty years of age…

As they gazed at the halberd wielding figure which slowly landed on the ground, everyone could feel the solemn aura from his body. Shimmering in his eyes, was a heart palpitating and icy glint.

On his own, he could fight against three perfect Yuan Dan stage practitioners. With such strength, even in this entire Yan City, who could hope to match up against him?

While Lin Dong's body landed, most of the Blood Wolf Gang troops had already started to flee for their lives, with the exception of a few resisting famed elites.

Naturally, the Thousand Gold Association would not give up this opportunity to chase them down. Their battered main entrance suddenly jutted open, as a large group of infuriated Thousand Gold Association troops gushed forth like a tidal wave. Full of killing intent, they hunted down the Blood Wolf Gang troops that were now fleeing for their lives. Some of these obstinate fighters were directly drowned by this tidal wave.

Yue Shan's death very clearly demonstrated 'defeat by a landslide'. That seemingly invincible Blood Wolf Gang was quickly decimated in mere minutes, suffering major casualties due to the Thousand Gold Association's efforts.

With regards to hunting down the remaining Blood Wolf Gang members, Lin Dong was not too interested in it. After all, these matters would be deftly handled by the Thousand Gold Association. He slowly walked towards Yue Shan's body, which was lying in a pool of blood, as he stared at the man, who was once a tyrant in Yan City, with calm eyes. He clearly understood how vicious this man was, hence, this time around, he could not afford to let him live. Else, he would encounter more problems down the road.

While Lin Dong was staring at Yue Shan's corpse, the rest of the Lin Family members swiftly huddled over. They stared at that ice-cold corpse, as a look of awe flashed across their eyes.

"Dong-er's abilities have far surpassed us."

Lin Zhentian stroked his beard as he looked to his side at Lin Dong. The expression on his face could not be described by mere words. He had painstakingly worked for a good part of his life in order to establish his Lin Family in Qingyang town. However, once Lin Dong sprung up, in mere two years, their Lin Family had already managed to establish such a position for themselves in Yan City. Previously, this was something that he could not have imagined.

To one side, Lin Ken and the rest nodded their heads, before they said with a smile: "It seems like Dong-er has benefited substantially from the trip to the old tomb."

Lin Dong chuckled. With a wave of his palm, he kept the Ancient Heavenly Scales Halberd into his Qiankun bag. Tilting his head towards Lin Zhentian and Lin Xiao, he mumbled to himself for a while before he said: "Grandpa, Father. This time, after the Blood Wolf Gang has been taken care of, I shall leave Yan City for a period of time."

"Leave? Where to?" When they heard his words, Lin Zhentian and the rest were stunned.

"I will go to a place that will allow me to become even stronger." Lin Dong was silent for a moment before he spoke. If it was not for the trip to the old tomb, perhaps he would be content to stay here and wait for the clan gathering, however… at that time, he would still be an ant in Lin Langtian's eyes.

Even if the him at that time challenged Lin Langtian, the result would likely be similar to Lin Xiao in the past.

This was not a sight he wanted to see. After he saw how his spirited father was reduced to such a sorry state by Lin Langtian, defeating that latter had always been a goal in his mind. The matters that happened in the old tomb only served to amplify his desire to accomplish this goal.

In fact, in some ways, Lin Dong should thank Lin Langtian. That was because the latter led him to understand that there was still a huge distance between the two of them. Sometimes, it's not terrible to learn that there is still a gap between you and your opponents. Rather, it's scary when you only learn it after it's too late.

Thankfully, Lin Dong managed to discover the gap between him and Lin Langtian. Hence, this gave him the opportunity to play catch-up!

Furthermore, he once swore to defeat Lin Langtian!

During the clan gathering, he will defeat this legendary figure famed throughout the entire Yan Dynasty in front of everyone. Hence, in order to accomplish this, he was prepared to pay a huge sacrifice and work extremely hard!

"Dong-er, what happened? Did they slight you during the trip to the old tomb?" As Lin Dong's father, Lin Xiao evidently understood Lin Dong very well. His gaze flashed, as he furrowed his eyebrows and inquired.

"Father, I am fine. It's just that Yan City no longer suits the current me."

Lin Dong smiled as he replied. Right now, he had already grown up and should handle some issues on his own. Even if he spoke of his conflict with Lin Langtian, other than making Lin Xiao and the rest enraged, there was little else that it would accomplish.

Lin Xiao stared at Lin Dong. Moments later, his palm heavily patted the latter's shoulder, as he slowly said: "Regardless of your decision, we will not object. However, do not forget this, wherever you are, and no matter what you have been through, as long as you return here, this is always your home. We may not be as powerful, however for you, we will do anything."

As he looked at the solemn expression on Lin Xiao's face, Lin Dong's heart warmed a little. Promptly, he nodded his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry dad, In two year, I will return in time for the clan gathering."

"At that time, I will avenge the humiliation that you suffered!"

He did not say the last sentence out loud, rather it sounded out inside Lin Dong's heart. On that day, he would let all the Lin Clan members, who ridiculed his father, know that the son had came to repay his father's debts!

To one side, when Lin Ken and the rest heard of Lin Dong's plan to leave, they were somewhat saddened. However, they did not object, but rather patted the latter's shoulder and said a few touching words. Even though their family was not yet as powerful as some other families, they had a strong sense of camaraderie that other factions lacked.

"Little brother Lin Dong!"

While Lin Dong chatted with Lin Xiao and the rest, Xia Wanjin led several high ranking members of the Thousand Gold Association and hurriedly walked over, before they bowed solemnly at Lin Dong.

"Brother Lin Dong, we are in your debt. You have helped our Thousand Gold Association tremendously. In the future, if you require assistance from my Thousand Gold Association, we will throw our full weight behind you without question!" Xia Wanjin's face was especially serious as he declared.

In the past, Lin Dong's abilities and potential clearly demonstrated that he was an asset worthy of investment. However, right now, based on Lin Dong's abilities, he had already reached a stage where Wanjin would look up to the former.

Fighting against three opponents alone, killing one and even severely injuring the other two!

This result caused his heart to skip a beat. After all, he clearly remembered that when he first met Lin Dong, the latter was merely at the Heavenly Yuan stage. However, with Lin Dong's current abilities, even if he wanted to dominate Yan City, it would not be an impossible feat!

"Haha, chairman Xia is too kind. Initially, I received much help and assistance from the Thousand Gold Association and big sister Su. If your association encounters any troubles in future, Lin Dong will be surely do his best to help out." Lin Dong gently smiled as he replied.

Behind Xia Wanjin, a wide smile was plastered to Xuansu's beautiful face. The reason why the Thousand Gold Association was able to establish close ties with Lin Dong was mostly thanks to her efforts. Right now, the latter's ability and attitude did not disappoint her at all.

"Chairman Xia, after this matter, I may leave Yan City for a while. At that time, I hope that you can look after my Lin Family."

"Oh? You are leaving?" Upon hearing these words, Xia Wanjin was taken aback. Slight reluctance was contained in his eyes, however he did not comment. Solemnly nodding his head, he replied: " Don't worry, as long as my Thousand Gold Association is around in Yan City, we will be Lin Family's closest ally!"

At this stage, no one would doubt Lin Dong's potential. Even if he left Yan City, he would eventually return one day. At that time, his strength would have probably grown tremendously again. Therefore, for their Thousand Gold Association, this was a massive hidden ally!

"Yue Shan is dead. The Blood Wolf Gang now only exists in name. However, a dying camel is still larger than a horse, if one is negligent, one may leave behind several potential problems." Lin Dong gently smiled, glancing at the corpse and the floor as he spoke.

"Haha, little brother Lin Dong, don't worry. The remnants of Blood Wolf Gang will never appear in Yan City again!" Xia Wanjin was a wise man. He knew that since Lin Dong was going away for a while, he would naturally worry about his Lin Family. Now that he had destroyed the Blood Wolf Gang, the Blood Wolf Gang remnants would definitely harbour a grudge and may attempt to ambush the Lin Family. Hence, he immediately patted his chest as he reassured Lin Dong with a smile.

After hearing these words, Lin Dong gently nodded his head. With a smile, he said: "In that case, I am sorry to trouble chairman Xia. With regards to the two individuals from the Black Python Mountain, I hope that they can be cleanly taken care of…"

When he heard Lin Dong's casual words, Xia Wanjin's heart slightly shuddered. He could hear that Lin Dong was clearly unwilling to let Han Sheng and Han Zong escape.

"I will handle this matter." Xia Wanjin's eyes slightly narrowed as he softly said.

"Thank you. Now that this matter has been resolved, it's time for me to return home. If there are any further complications, you can find me at the Lin Family."

Lin Dong chuckled, not wanting to linger on in this chaotic area. Cupping his hands at Xia Wanjin and Xuansu, he led the Lin Family as they slowly departed. As they walked, the surrounding crowd swiftly made way for them. Right now, none of them dared to underestimate this Lin Family, which had only recently established themselves in Yan City…

The shocking strength displayed by Lin Dong today had definitely knocked several of them out of their wits.

"Let's go. The Blood Wolf Gang is finished…"

On a distant building, the middle-aged man with jade-white skin softly chuckled, before he turned to leave. As he took a few steps, he suddenly paused.

"In future, interact more with the Lin Family. This Lin Dong holds tremendous potential and his accomplishments in the future will be astounding. A mere province or even an empire will not tie him down!"

When they heard this middle-aged man's evaluation, a little awe surfaced in Ziyue and grandmaster Yan's eyes.

Chapter 193: Eruption of Yin energy

Yue Shan's death and the destruction of the Blood Wolf Gang undoubtedly became the hottest topic in Yan City during this period. No one had expected that the faction which had stood strong for about a dozen years, would completely fall apart in less than a month.

Of course, as news of this spread, word of the main protagonist of this story, Lin Dong, spread like wildfire. Taking on three opponents by himself, plus, his opponents were extremely famous in Yan City and its vicinity.

However, even if this was so, the former still managed to kill one and injure the other two. With this kind of battle record, even when an ordinary person talked about it, he would feel the blood in his body start to boil a little. Such boldness truly caused one to be subdued. Moreover, when they heard that this person was not even twenty years of age, that subdued feeling would transform into a loud gasp of admiration. In the last hundred years of Yan City's history, this kind of talent had never appeared before. The Lin Family was truly lucky to have such a descendent.

In the following half a month, the previously rather famous Blood Wolf Gang gradually faded like smoke under the Thousand Gold Association's merciless counter-attack. Not one of the stronger practitioners in the gang was let off, as they were directly cleaned up by the Thousand Gold association. When some of the ordinary factions saw this, they quickly made themselves scarce like frightened birds and animals. Furthermore, the factions which had some ties with the Blood Wolf Gang previously hastily denied any relation to the latter, afraid that they would be implicated in this extermination.

As the Blood Wolf Gang was exterminated, the reputation of the Thousand Gold Association in Yan City also soared like the sun. Of course, compared to the unbounded Thousand Gold Association, the Lin Family were much more low-key, and did not show off or spread news of this matter, as they continued their regular daily activities. Of course, after this matter occurred, most things proceeded extremely smoothly for the Lin Family in Yan City, and there were no longer any factions which dared to obstruct them. After all, everyone knew that the biggest reason why the Thousand Gold Association were able to turn defeat into victory against the Blood Wolf Gang was due to Lin Dong of the Lin Family.

With regards to their top-class practitioner, even the Thousand Gold Association was unable to match up to the Lin Family which possessed this kind of heavyweight like Lin Dong. Who else would dare to offend them, wouldn't that be courting death?

Thus, although the Lin Family's overall power was most likely unable to reach the same level as the Thousand Gold Association, after the Blood Wolf Gang had been wiped out, the Lin Family had already become the new and genuine top faction in Yan City!

While Yan City was abuzz due to the purge of the Blood Wolf Gang by the Thousand Gold Association, Lin Dong did not take even half a step outside. Over this period of time, he stayed in the Lin Family because after the Lin Family younger generation knew that he would be leaving, many of them hastily tried to make the best use of their time to ask him for guidance in martial arts. In response, Lin Dong welcomed all of them. After all, if the Lin Family's power could grow even a little, he would worry just a tiny bit less.

"Boom!"

In a courtyard deep in the Lin Family estate, a faintly golden glow flickered in the air. A golden platform floated in mid-air, emitting an extremely oppressive aura.

The golden platform appeared faintly golden in color and was about three meters large, giving off the sensation of being as heavy as a mountain. However, this square golden platform was not as compact as the one Wang Yan had displayed, but instead somewhat more illusionary.

"Bang!"

The golden platform flipped in mid-air, before slamming into the ground, directly turning a boulder to dust with a force so great that even cracks started forming on the ground.

As he observed this destructive power, Lin Dong only slightly shook his head, a little unsatisfied. The might of the Subduing Golden Platform Magic Palm he displayed clearly fell short of Wang Yan's

However, there was nothing wrong with this. The minimum requirement of the Subduing Golden Platform Magic Palm was that one needed to reach the Form Creation stage. Or else, one would be unable to create a golden platform, and the attack power would be rather limited, unable to bring out that strong and powerful aura.

Although the current Lin Dong had advanced to the perfect Yuan Dan stage, this was after all still a distance from the Form Creation stage. While using the Heavenly Scales Halberd technique, he was able to borrow the might of the Ancient Heavenly Scales Halberd to bring out its power. However, this Subduing Golden Platform Magic Palm needed the support of one's innate strength.

Lin Dong being able to compact the golden platform to such a stage at the perfect Yuan Dan stage was already a fairly decent achievement. If it was not for the aid of his Mental Energy, he would definitely be unable to manipulate Yuan Power to such an extent.

Simply put, the so-called form creation was one's level of control of Yuan Power. Only when one reached a certain degree of mastery would one be able to compact Yuan Power into various shapes, and possess the ability to greatly strengthen one's attacks. Lin Dong's Mental Energy was not weak, and was able to complement controlling Yuan Power rather well, helping him achieve a somewhat remarkable effect.

Of course, this kind of path where one cultivates both Mental Energy and Yuan Power was not unique to Lin Dong. Most practitioners would achieve a certain level of proficiency in both fields, however, one field would usually be deeper while the other shallower.

"Brother Lin Dong is great!"

While Lin Dong was deep in thought, a young girl's lively laughter suddenly sounded out. Upon hearing this voice, Lin Dong softly chuckled, as he lifted his head and gazed at the beautiful young girl in light colored clothings nearby. He promptly walked over, taking a look at Qing Tan's slightly pale face, as his eyebrows furrowed: "If you're unwell, don't run about too much."

Over this period, the breakout of Yin energy in Qing Tan's body had become increasingly difficult to deal with. However, Lin Dong was not anxious to immediately use the 'Extreme Yin Dragon Saliva'. This was because he still needed to wait for the time when the amount of Yin energy reached its peak in a month. This time arrived tonight.

Upon hearing this, Qing Tan happily laughed, making a face at Lin Dong, before tugging at the latter's arm. Her small and delicate face suddenly darkened a little as she said in a soft voice: "Brother Lin Dong is going to leave soon right?"

"To protect the people I want to protect, I need strength. My current strength is still not enough to protect all of you, thus, I require a greater strength, a strength that I cannot obtain in Yan City." Lin Dong tenderly stroked Qing Tan's fine hair as he replied.

"I also want to protect brother Lin Dong." Qing Tan pouted a little and suddenly declared.

"Haha, that will have to wait until you surpass me first…"

Lin Dong was delighted, soon after, he rubbed his chin and said: "If we are able to subdue the Yin energy in your body tonight, in the future you will slowly be able to control the Yin energy in your body. After which, your future achievements can only be described using the word terrifying. Surpassing me will then be a very simple matter."

"Really?" Qing Tan's limpid eyes shined as she joyfully asked.

Lin Dong softly chuckled as he nodded his head. He was silent for a moment before he continued: "However, some matters are a little dangerous, and even fatal…"

Brother Lin Dong, I am not afraid!" As if she sensed the hesitation in Lin Dong's tone, Qing Tan abruptly lifted her small face and declared without the slightest hesitation.

Upon seeing this, Lin Dong was once again silent, before he finally nodded his head: "Mm, you should go make proper preparations, tonight's matter is quite important!"

Qing Tan beamed as she heard this and repeatedly nodded her head. Her footsteps were quick and light as she fluttered away like a butterfly.

As he watched Qing Tan's leaving figure, Lin Dong's expression turned a little solemn. On his shoulder, Little Marten appeared and said: "I should remind you that if the Yin energy in her body completely erupts and she is unable to control it, she would at best be severely injured, and at worst, die on the spot!"

"Of course, if she succeeds, it would be extremely beneficial for her. In the future, as long as she forms a Yin Dan, her strength would definitely soar. At that time, even you will find it very difficult to beat her!"

"Although one has to go through trial after trial with this kind of physique, once the restrictions are undone, one will definitely become a favored child of the heavens!"

Lin Dong lightly nodded his head, he did not care if Qing Tan became strong. He would be most happy as long as she could happily live her life.

"Even if this is so, Qing Tan's body cannot endure for much longer. Hence, we might as well go all out and fight!"

Lin Dong had already mulled over this matter for half a month. Over this period, the frequency of the Yin energy in Qing Tan's body erupting became more and more frequent. If this continued, Qing Tan would at most last half a year before her body becomes unable to resist the corrosion of the Yin energy.

Since the final outcome was the same, they would fight!

"Phew…"

Deeply sucking in a breath of cold air, Lin Dong lifted his head and gazed at the gradually darkening sky, as he mumbled: "It will definitely succeed…"

Late at night, Qing Tan quietly sat on a stone platform in one of the inner courtyards within the Lin Family estate. Cold Yin energy slowly curled around her, such that even a thin layer of frost covered the stone platform.

The Yin energy in Qing Tan's body had yet to erupt, yet it already caused these changes in her surroundings. It was difficult to imagine how terrifying it would be when it really erupted.

Below the stone platform, Lin Dong lifted his head and looked at the night sky. As the bright moon gradually dimmed, the Yin energy around them also gradually became richer. He could even sense threads of Yin energy invading Qing Tan's body without her control.

Qing Tan's eyes were tightly shut. As the Yin energy gushed in, the terrifying cold Qi hidden deep in her body gave indications of appearing once again, while a chill quietly flowed out.

As this chill flowed out little by little, about half an hour later, Qing Tan's body suddenly started trembling a little. The Yin energy in her body was also triggered by the surrounding rich cold Qi.

"Humm humm!"

Yin energy gushed about in mid-air, and continuously poured into Qing Tan's body while emitting wind noises.

Lin Dong's eyes were tightly fixed on Qing Tan. When the Yin energy in the latter's body reached the critical point, his eyes suddenly turned serious, as he lifted his hand and a jade box flew out from his Qiankun bag.

When the jade box opened, a black elixir that emitted an exceedingly potent and pure Yin energy slowly floated out, before finally hovering above Qing Tan's head.

"Sui!"

Lin Dong's gaze flashed, as his fist suddenly clenched. The 'Extreme Yin Dragon Saliva' straightaway burst open, as an invisible pressure transformed it into deep black drops of viscous liquid that was filled with an inexhaustible cold Yin energy. They dripped onto Qing Tan's head, and swiftly invaded her body.

"Boom!"

As each drop of deep black cold Yin liquid entered Qing Tan's body, Yin energy suddenly swept out from Qing Tan's body like a hurricane!

In the face of this terrifying Yin energy, even Lin Dong was momentarily shocked!

Chapter 194: Black Yin Dan

The terrifying Yin energy were like huge dragons, as they frantically burst out from Qing Tan's body. In an instant, the courtyard turned biting cold, as if the flesh was being cut off your bone, while a ghastly chill filled the air.

"Ka ka!"

The stone platform where Qing Tan was seated was so chilled by the extreme cold that it emitted cracking noises, as a thick layer of frost swiftly spread outwards.

"To think that the Yin energy hidden in Qing Tan's body is this frightening…"

Lin Dong wore a solemn expression as he gazed at this sight. This was the first time he had seen such a frightening Yin energy. Under the corrosion of such a Yin energy, even he felt the blood in his body faintly start to solidify. Immediately, he urged his Yuan Power to wrap around his entire body. Only then did the ice-cold sensation weaken substantially.

"The Terminus Devil Body was originally the most Yin. Over these years, her body has been constantly absorbing the Yin energy from around her. After settling for more than a dozen years, this Yin energy had already become exceptionally powerful. If she is able to control it, she will possess a matchless cultivation foundation. In the future, her achievements will be limitless." Little Marten appeared on Lin Dong's shoulder, as it took a look at the cold Qi which filled the courtyard before explaining.

Lin Dong lightly nodded his head. He did not care how strong Qing Tan would become, as long as she was safe, he would be satisfied.

"Boom!"

While Lin Dong was watching with a serious expression, a pained look suddenly surfaced on Qing Tan's face. Her body violently trembled, as the Yin energy that erupted from her body showed faint signs of turning black. Moreover, that kind of Yin energy had also become much more potent.

"The Terminus Devil Qi has been drawn out!"

Upon seeing this, Little Marten spoke out in a low voice. This was the most terrifying thing in Qing Tan's body. If Lin Dong was infected by this Terminus Devil Qi, his Yuan Power would likely be straightaway frozen before completely shattering.

The thick black Terminus Devil Qi was like huge ropes which winded around Qing Tan. The Terminus Devil Qi tangled with each other, looking just like a humongous black storm which soared towards the clouds.

"Ah!"

As the Terminus Devil Qi endlessly gushed out from her body, black specks surfaced in Qing Tan's eyes, making her look extremely strange, while a pained and hoarse cry sounded out from her mouth.

"Tch!"

The Terminus Devil Qi curled around Qing Tan's lily-white hands, before ferociously smashing into a boulder in front of her. In the face of this power, the originally sturdy boulder had become as weak as toufu.

"Qing Tan cannot endure anymore!"

As he gazed at the Qing Tan's trembling body and her wildly dancing hair, Lin Dong expression started to change.

"The Terminus Devil Qi has erupted too violently, it needs to be suppressed!" Little Marten was deep in thought as it said in a low voice: "Use the Pure Yuan pills, this Terminus Devil Qi is exceedingly tyrannical, you cannot touch it, or else it will be very difficult for you to survive!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong did not hesitate at all. His palm lifted as an endless stream of Pure Yuan pills flew out from his Qiankun bag and floated closely together in the sky. From the looks of it, there were at least a thousand of them.

After drawing out a thousand Pure Yuan pills, Lin Dong's palm once again moved, as a faintly golden Yuan Power burst out from his palm.

As the Yuan Power spread out, the numerous Pure Yuan pills hovering in the air immediately showed signs of melting. In the end, they transformed into an extremely vigorous and pure Yuan Power.

"Go!"

Having transformed this one thousand Pure Yuan pills into pure Yuan Power, Lin Dong's sleeve waved, as the Yuan Power poured down like a river, before slamming into Qing Tan's body, and continuously infusing in.

"Ch ch!"

As the powerful Yuan Power poured in, the Terminus Devil Qi around Qing Tan's body emitted waves of black smoke, and the increasingly violent eruption was forcibly restrained.

Although the current Lin Dong found it extremely troublesome to deal with this Terminus Devil Qi, he had a considerable amount of resources to respond to it. This one thousand Pure Yuan pills was akin to the combined force of several perfect Yuan Dan stage practitioners. Hence, suppressing the unripe Terminus Devil Qi in Qing Tan's body was not impossible.

Surging Yuan Power poured down in torrents, as the pained look on Qing Tan's face lessened substantially. Just as she sighed in relief in her heart, Lin Dong's shout suddenly sounded out in her ear: "Qing Tan, concentrate and win over the Terminus Devil Qi. Only when you have compressed the Terminus Devil Qi in your body into a Dan, will you gain complete control over it!"

After hearing Lin Dong's shout, Qing Tan's became a little more clear-headed. She hastily concentrated and did her best to control the Terminus Devil Qi which filled her body, directing all of it towards her Dantian before compressing it.

As Qing Tan focused, the Terminus Devil Qi within her body started to scream, as it swiftly travelled through her body. Every time the Terminus Devil Qi passed through her channels, muscles and bones, it caused Qing Tan's body to tremble violently, as an acute pain like that of a knife cutting her spread out across her entire body.

However, although the Terminus Devil Qi corroded her body, and brought with it this intense pain, Qing Tan could feel that her body and organs were strengthening bit by bit under the pain…

This kind of strengthening would gradually allow Qing Tan to completely adapt to the overbearing Terminus Devil Qi!

As she felt this change, Qing Tan resolutely gritted her teeth and bitterly endured. She understood that if she managed to successfully endure this, her strength would definitely advance by leaps and bounds. This was what she needed, because she did not want to see Lin Dong carrying all the burdens of their family on his shoulders every time…

She wanted to help him and not be a burden to him. Hence, she also needed to become strong, and now…this was the most crucial step in becoming strong!

She must not fail!

A determined look flashed across Qing Tan's limpid and quick-witted eyes. Her lily-white hands tightly clenched, and with a flick of her mind, the Terminus Devil Qi curling around her body started to surge, before being directly absorbed into her tiny mouth!

"Humm humm!"

The black mist dragons which twined around her body started to swirl frantically. Joined at head to tail around Qing Tan's head as they screamed out, forcefully sucking in all the Yin energy in a three hundred meter radius.

"This..:"

When he saw this scene, Lin Dong was taken aback, as his body hastily retreated backwards. Even he dare not stay too close to this berserk Yin energy vortex.

"Although it is very late at night, this disturbance will definitely be sensed by some practitioners…" Lin Dong's gaze slightly flickered, as he lifted his head and gazed at the sky in the distance. He could sense the appearance of some Yuan Power undulations in that direction. Evidently, this disturbance had drawn the attention of a few practitioners.

"The current Qing Tan cannot be disturbed." Lin Dong's eyebrows furrowed, as a sword flickered below his feet. He swiftly floated into the air, grasping onto his Ancient Heavenly Scales Halberd. The halberd stamped in the skies as a powerful aura spread outwards.

In Yan City, the expressions of the practitioners, who originally intended to scout this disturbance, changed when they saw the young figure hovering in mid-air, as they conscientiously stopped in their steps. Lin Dong had a rather overwhelming reputation in Yan City now, such that quite a number of people called him the number one practitioner in Yan City. With him overseeing this affair, no one dared to rashly take a peek.

"The Lin Family is in that direction, this disturbance, it looks like someone is about to have a break through to the perfect Yuan Dan stage. This Lin Family has truly concealed many talents…"

"True, it is likely that the Lin Family will become the true leader of Yan City in the future."

"…"

In the night, some amazed whispers quietly spread about.

At the center of Yan City, a man with a jade-like complexion lifted his head and gazed in the Lin Family's direction. His expression was a little solemn, as he could sense the terrifying Yin energy in that area.

"This Lin Family…is truly extraordinary."

Leaving numerous practitioners in awe, Lin Dong looked down at Qing Tan. At this moment, black waves were rippling out from her body. These black rippled were extremely formidable and tyrannical, leaving behind a layer of black frost wherever they passed.

The entire courtyard was covered in black frost. Fortunately, Lin Dong knew the disturbance this time would not be small. Hence, he intentionally found a more remote area, or else, if this cold Qi were to escape, it would cause considerable damage.

"The Terminus Devil Qi in her body is becoming more and more frightening! This lass, her willpower does not lose out to yours in the slightest. To think that she is actually able to endure the pain from the Terminus Devil Qi corrosion!" Little Marten suddenly said as it watched Qing Tan.

"Bang!"

Just as Little Marten's voice sounded out, Qing Tan's eyes abruptly opened. Two strange black lights burst out from her eyes, and wherever the lights shined, countless black icicles would erupt from the ground with 'ka ka' sounds!

When she opened her eyes, the aura from Qing Tan's body started to soar frantically. Heavenly Yuan early stage, middle stage, late stage…

In a short few minutes, Qing Tan had already jumped to the Heavenly Yuan late stage. She was now only a single step from the Yuan Dan stage!

When her aura reached the Heavenly Yuan late stage, Qing Tan's small mouth slightly opened, as the black storm-like Terminus Devil Qi around her body immediately flew into that small cherry mouth.

The black Terminus Devil storm that was a dozen meters large completely entered Qing Tan's body in a few minutes!

"Buzz buzz!"

As the last bit of Terminus Devil Qi was sucked into Qing Tan's body, her long hair suddenly spread out. Qing Tan abruptly lifted her head, as a black light slowly rose out from her mouth!

As the black light rose, it was as if the Yin energy all around was being drawn in, and endlessly gathered towards the black light.

As more and more Yin energy was absorbed into the black light, the black light gradually grew brighter. In the end, it started to spin and slowly transformed into a deep black Dan that was about the size of a thumb!

This Yuan Dan was not large, and was covered in a deep black color. This kind of black looked as if it was able to gobble down one's gaze, an extremely strange sight.

Just as this deep black Yuan Dan formed, Qing Tan's aura once again crazily soared under Lin Dong and quite a few practitioner's astonished senses!

To think that the Terminus Devil Body would be so terrifying after its awakening…
