Xiao Lin smiled when he heard what Nine Calamities said.

Then he entered into a fighting stance. And as he did so, he suddenly recalled when something similar to this happened back at Master Wu's Flowing Cloud sect. Then, he was a mortal who was facing cultivators with Movement Techniques and Battle Techniques. But now, things were different. He had two of the most fearsome deity-level battle arts in the cultivation world,which he had mastered a few brutally powerful moves from.

Seeing the stance that he entered, the fifteen bandits burst into loud, raucous laughter. They were bemused by what Xiao Lin just did.

How will someone at the 5th-layer Spiritual Ascendance stage fight them who were at the 9th-layer Spiritual Ascendance stage? They found it funny and totally amusing.

Xiao Lin had entered the 5th-layer Spiritual Ascendance stage from the 3rd-layer Spiritual Ascendance stage as he was serious with his cultivation of Spiritual Energy.

***

Not long, one of them suddenly rushed towards Xiao Lin using a Movement Technique to physically attack him, as he strongly felt that Xiao Lin wasn't worth him producing Spiritual Energy attacks to unleash at him.

Once he arrived before Xiao Lin and threw out his fist at him, Xiao Lin simply sidestepped to the left to evade the incoming fist attack.

Then as soon as he did so, he grabbed the fist of that bandit before the bandit could withdraw it. Then before the bandit could do anything else, Xiao Lin applied force with his powerful hand on that fist that he had grasped to wickedly crush it.

Craack!

A crack sound which signified the breaking of bones rang out, while the bandit screamed out in pain.

Arghh!!

Then still holding on to that fist with one of his powerful hands, Xiao Lin clenched his other hand into a rock-hard fist and then sent it straight at the ribs of the bandit.

Craack!

Argh!!!

Both the sound of cracking of bones and the heart-tingling screech of pain rang out at the same time.

And, still grabbing that crushed fist, Xiao Lin abruptly turned around 360-degree and viciously flung the bandit grasped by far away.

Bang!

The bandit crashed really hard into the earth of the training field many feet away, with blood streaming down continuously from his ears, mouth and nose.

Xiao Lin then dusted his hand and asked with a ferocious smile in his face "Who's next?!"

It was at this moment that everyone kept quiet with great shock and puzzlement in their faces. Even their breathing became irregular and intense.

The spectacle that they just witnessed was totally unbelievable, even after seeing it with their naked eyes.

Hahaha!

Clap! Clap! Clap!...

Nine Calamities who really enjoyed what he just watched, first laughed and then began to clap with intense amazement in his eyes. He was starting to like Xiao Lin day by day.

The other bandits who were to face Xiao Lin began to look at him with intensely cold and murderous gazes in their eyes, after a moment of being initially surprised that Xiao Lin could quickly, overpoweringly finish off one of them.

Then they rapidly switched their attack mode.

Now, they were going to launch Spiritual Energy attacks at him.

Xiao Lin knew this too, so he was ready to defend himself from their furious barrages of attacks.

Not exactly defend, he was going to attack them too.

He wouldn't wait for them to produce their attacks and unleash it at him. That was only what a moron or a crackhead would do, and he was no moron or crackhead. So, he would quickly unleash his own attacks to overwhelm them and win the battle.

Quickly employing the battle technique called Lesser Hundred Ominous Blades and following it description in the Myriad Chaotic Blood Armament art battle art, Blood Energy gushed out his from entire body in large amounts which then instantly transformed into thirty nine blades that were each four feet long and five inches wide.

Once these blood-colored blades that each emitted the power of sharpness to seemingly cut through virtually everything in the world abruptly formed in the air around him, Xiao Lin said "Go!"

Immediately after Xiao Lin gave that command, the blades shot out towards remaining fourteen bandits that surrounded him.

Noticing the perceptible, alarming power of sharpness possessed by each of the blades blazing furiously towards them, the fourteen bandits quickly discharged Spiritual Energy from their hands which then quickly condensed into blades of different colors that shot out at the same instant towards the incoming, sharpness-emanating, blood-colored blades to intercept them and possibly break or shatter them apart into fragments.

Bang! Bang! Bang!...

Bang! Bang! Bang!...

Once the multiple attacks clashed in the air, numerous bang sounds began to ring out, while small waves of tyrannical energies surfaced immediately after their heavy collisions.

When the bang sounds stopped a few moments later, nothing could be seen in the air again.

Both Xiao Lin's attacks and the fourteen bandits' attacks had been completely destroyed in their tyrannical clashes with one another.

"Wow!"

The bandits around who weren't partaking in the fight couldn't help but exclaim in shock.

They couldn't believe that Xiao Lin's attacks, the attacks of a 5th-layer Spiritual Ascendance stage cultivator could actually resist the damaging power of the attacks of fourteen 9th-layer Spiritual Ascendance stage cultivators and instead shatter them apart into fragments before exploding into bits a moment later.

What they thought was what actually happened.

Xiao Lin's attacks instantly reduced the formidable attacks of his challengers into thousands of bits upon their initial brutal collisions, before his attacks themselves suddenly developed countless cracks in their amazingly dense structures before shattering into smithereens and then dispersing away some seconds later, bringing calmness to the atmosphere around them again.

The bandits surrounding them couldn't understand how Xiao Lin's attacks possessed such ferocity and astonishing degree of solidness. Then they finally concluded that it has to do with the characteristics of his Spiritual Energy.

But they were totally wrong!

Xiao Lin didn't use Spiritual Energy in his attacks, as he hadn't yet studied and mastered battle techniques for the overbearing, dark-colored Spiritual Energy that he cultivated. What he used was Blood Energy, a fearsome unique energy that had been born in his dantian because of the dreadfully powerful, tyrannical evil art that he was practicing. Although the blood-red color that it possessed made all of them suspicious, they however didn't remain suspicious for long, as they felt that the color that it possessed was the inherent color of his Spiritual Energy.

Xiao Lin had thought all these through. So that was why he chose to use his cultivated Blood Energy.

However, only one bandit called Rainheart retained his suspicion for Xiao Lin, as he had always been wary about him. He didn't discard off his suspicion like the rest.

***

When their attacks totally neutralized each other in the air, Xiao Lin who always grabbed the initiative to attack first, quickly employed the Blood Wave Shattering Immovable Mountains battle technique.

Then following it description in the Blood Devouring Thousand Worlds battle art, he began to punch out at each of the fourteen bandits, firing off immense, tyrannical waves of Blood Energy from his fist at them to possibly shatter the bones of their bodies and win the match.
