"Bastard! Flame Armor!"
Seeing the fiery projectile from Lin Chen, Wu Quanan did not dare to be careless.
He was most aware of the power of the Li Huo Bracelet, one of the treasures of the Blazing Fire Sect.
He had originally given this item to his grandson, Wu Tie, hoping to save his life.
He never expected that this item would now fall into someone else's hands!
If he didn't handle it carefully, and got entangled by this li huo, even he would likely lose a layer of skin!
"Who is setting up the formation! I am Wu Quanan, Supreme Elder of the Blazing Fire Sect. Can you show some face and open the formation?"
"I am willing to offer the position of Elder of the Blazing Fire Sect as thanks!"
After blocking a li huo projectile, Wu Quanan immediately turned to look at the grass beside him.
What truly trapped him now was this mysterious formation, which prevented him from exerting his full strength.
If the formation were removed, facing this mere early-stage Core Formation brat, he wouldn't even need to use both hands to defeat him!
Moreover, a cultivator capable of setting up such a sophisticated formation was undoubtedly a true talent.
Recruiting such a talent into the Blazing Fire Sect would definitely be a gain!
"Wu Quanan, don't waste your efforts. Sword Cleaves Stone!"
Seeing Wu Quanan trying to persuade Zhang Ying, who was setting up the formation, Lin Chen directly laughed.
The Blazing Fire Sect's disciples now had Wu Quanan, who had reached the half-step Nascent Soul realm. The position of an Elder of the Blazing Fire Sect was equivalent to the head of one of the five major sects or four minor families.
While this might be a great temptation for others, for Zhang Ying at this moment, it was simply a waste of breath!
As Lin Chen's voice fell, a giant sword instantly appeared above the formation and smashed down towards Wu Quanan within the formation.
"All of you, stop being stunned and attack the formation!"
"I refuse to believe that a formation set up by someone hiding their face can be that sophisticated!"
Looking at the giant sword overhead, Wu Quanan gritted his teeth and ordered the other elders, who were still stunned, to attack.
"Kill!"
With Wu Quanan's command, the other elders quickly reacted, each taking out their magical artifacts and attacking the formation.
However, these individuals had just lost some of their functions, and at this moment, they could not exert their full strength.
Therefore, these attacks on the formation's barrier were like scratching an itch, having no effect whatsoever!
"Youngster, I must admit, your formation is exquisite, and your moves are also very powerful."
"If you were at the late-stage Core Formation cultivation, perhaps I would truly be defeated by you. It's a pity that you are only at the early-stage Core Formation. Such exquisite swordsmanship cannot be fully utilized in your hands!"
Seeing the immense power of the swordsmanship displayed by Lin Chen, Wu Quanan was completely moved.
He could feel that if this swordsmanship were used by him, it would absolutely possess world-destroying effects!
This heavenly mountain giant sword, while appearing clumsy, actually concealed a divine sense attack!
Paired with his current cultivation, it would be a perfect match!
"Brat, I can overlook the origin of the Li Huo Bracelet in your possession."
"I can also overlook the fact that you crippled several of my elders."
"As long as you let me out, and hand over this swordsmanship and formation to me, I can also let you be an Elder of the Blazing Fire Sect. What do you say?"
Wu Quanan looked at Lin Chen, trying to persuade him gently.
There was no other way; he was truly captivated by the swordsmanship in Lin Chen's hands!
"Hehehe, Elder Wu, do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"
Upon hearing Wu Quanan's words, Lin Chen let out a scornful laugh.
Wu Quanan's personality was the same as his grandson Wu Tie's. If he had any sense of honor, how could Lin Chen, with his mere early-stage Core Formation cultivation, dare to confront Wu Quanan head-on?
"Hmph, you don't know what's good for you!"
"If that's the case, then don't blame this old man for showing no mercy!"
Seeing that persuasion was useless, Wu Quanan was furious.
"Blazing Flame Burns the Heavens!"
As Wu Quanan waved his hands, the entire valley was instantly bathed in red.
Countless blazing flames surged out from above Wu Quanan's head, quickly encircling the few people within the formation.
"Kill!"
Wu Quanan roared, and the aura emanating from his body rapidly ascended.
A fire dragon quickly formed and fiercely collided with the giant sword in the sky.
"Boom!"
Without any surprise, the giant sword was directly shattered, and the White Dragon Sword returned to Lin Chen's hand, as limp as a frost-beaten eggplant.
"As expected of a half-step Nascent Soul realm expert, at least four to five times stronger than the late-stage Core Formation experts I encountered before!"
Seeing the power of Wu Quanan's flames, Lin Chen couldn't help but sigh.
It seemed he had underestimated the power of a half-step Nascent Soul realm expert before.
Fortunately, he had his senior sister's formation as cover this time. Otherwise, if he had rashly attacked Wu Quanan, he would have been the one to suffer.
"Hmph, brat, it's too late to regret now! Blazing Flame Burns the Heavens, kill!"
Wu Quanan snorted coldly and directed the fire dragon to attack the surrounding formation.
He knew that once the formation was broken, this brat in front of him would be like meat on a chopping block, ready to be devoured at any time!
"Is that so?"
Lin Chen smiled coldly and directly took out a second-grade spirit recovery pill from his storage bag and swallowed it.
"Golden Dragon Transformation!"
As the spiritual energy entered his body, Lin Chen quickly performed the Golden Dragon Transformation, and his cultivation rapidly climbed.
Mid-stage Core Formation, peak mid-stage Core Formation, late-stage Core Formation!
"Sword Cleaves Stone!"
After reaching the mid-stage Core Formation, he once again injected spiritual energy into the White Dragon Sword.
At this moment, the White Dragon Sword's radiance was even more intense, quickly forming a giant sword in the sky, its scale even more than three times larger than before!
"This is a secret technique to temporarily enhance strength?"
"Elders, attack with me!"
Seeing the treasure sword in the sky, Wu Quanan's heart was slightly surprised.
No wonder this brat dared to attack him now; he actually had such a trump card!
"Raging Flame Dragon!"
Wu Quanan did not dare to be careless, and with his full attention, he controlled the fire dragon to charge towards the giant sword in the sky.
"Boom!"
The fire dragon and the giant sword collided, erupting in a burst of firelight.
The spiritual energy of both sides vanished in an instant.
This exchange ended in a tie!
"Hahahaha, brat, it seems your cultivation is only at this level!"
"For this attack just now, I only used eight parts of my strength."
After the exchange, Wu Quanan smiled slightly, looking quite satisfied.
Although the swordsmanship was exquisite, he had grasped the trick to this move.
It was absolutely impossible to kill him with this move!
Even for someone who used a secret technique to temporarily enhance their cultivation, it was definitely not enough!
