《Battling Records of the Chosen One》C247. Peak Duel under Full Attention (III)
Advertisement
The change of Huang Jianchen shocked the audience. They didn’t expect that Huang Jianchen had not shown his even after they had fought for so long.
But soon, many people were excited. This battle was so wonderful beyond their imagination that they had no time taking their eyes off the stage.
At this moment, the momentum of Huang had changed again. He was preparing for killing tactics which undoubtedly boiled the Arena up completely like adding fuel to the fire.
Witnessing this scene, Wen Mingxiu, Mu Wansu, Liu Qingyan, Chu Feng and others tightened their hearts. They couldn’t help worrying about Lin.
On the contrary, Qi Yunxiao, Yuan Shu and other people, as well as the disciples of the Forbidden City, were all inspired. They even wished to rush to the stage to cheer for Huang.
They all knew that if Lin Xun did not change his fighting, he would be doomed to fail.
In fact, at this moment, all the audience knew that Lin Xun was in a passive defensive situation from the beginning of the battle. He would have bad luck since Huang Jianchen obviously intended to use his deadliest attack and not give Lin a chance to reverse the situation.
However, Lin Xun seemed to be unaware of all this. Both his momentum and aura were the same flat as usual.
Lin Xun just asked Huang with some curiosity and confusion, "Dude, have you taken the wrong medicine? Why are you so excited?"
Huang Jianchen was stunned and thought Lin Xun was being sarcastic. He said gloomily, "When you are defeated, I'll ask you again what you meant by saying that."
As soon as his voice fell, the wisps of green flame suddenly lit up and danced wildly in the sky like transpiring ghost flames.
Crack!
As soon as his wrist waved, the green flames converged in the shadow of Evil-spirit Whip and shook fiercely in the mid-air.
Whining~
Suddenly, the wind whistled on the platform where the green fire burnt and raged, giving the stage a presence of hell.
In a trance, it even gave people an illusion that the whip was driving terrible ghosts to rush out of the hell and harm the world.
Originally the bustling Arena suddenly fell into silence. Seeing such a horrible scene, the audience were all frightened and froze.
“Ghosts’ Night!”
In the boxes, many big shots seemed to recognize this secret martial method of Huang. Their faces changed with complex emotions inside their heart and weren’t able to maintain their calmness.
“What’s this method, Granny Wind?”
Liu Qingyan was trembled.
“Child-mother Ghost Canon, an ancient secret method that has long been lost, has extremely harsh and unusual premises for cultivation. As far as I know, only those who condense rare ponds of spirit power like the Chains of Dark Prison or Sword of Night are qualified to inherit such a lost cultivation.”

Granny Wind’s mood was somewhat complicated. She did not think that the killing attack of Huang would be Child-mother Ghost Canon. Lin Xun was in danger right now. Even if he did not die, he would still suffer serious injuries in the end. Even worse, he might be depressed and sustain irreparable injuries!
She didn’t tell Liu Qingyan this fearing that she might worry about Lin Xun even more.
But Liu Qingyan was also smart. She knew that Child-mother Ghost Canon was a terrible secret method just by observing Granny Wind’s expressions.
“If something bad happens to Lin Xun, I will never forgive myself.”
Liu Qingyan murmured to herself in a low voice.
Granny Wind was instantly distressed and regretted whether she had done too much to Lin Xun. She just wanted to teach Lin a lesson, but Shie Yutang set Lin in such a dangerous situation which really made her out to be a narrow-minded person.
…
“It turns out that Huang Jianchen refused to enter Heiyao Shrine because he had already possessed the Child-mother Ghost Canon. ,Lin Xun will get in trouble this time…”
In another box, Shie Yutang was expressionless and thoughtful.
…
As the whole audience was reeling in shock, the ghost fire on the gloomy platform continued burning and swaying. It was about to submerge Lin Xun.
The scene was so creepy and frightening that many people were thrilled.
This was Ghosts’ Night, one of the killing methods of Child-mother Ghost Canon. Once put into action, it deterred people like summoning hundreds of ghosts from hell.
Lin Xun was doomed!
That was what everyone thought.
Huang Jianchen also believed so. This was the first time he had shown it to the public since he mastered the Child-mother Ghost Canon. He was confident that this attack was enough to defeat Lin Xun in one stroke.
“You should not regret for yourself. Your failure is going to glorify me.”
A proud smile spread on Huang Jianchen’s lips.
But at this moment, when Lin was almost overwhelmed by thousands of ghost fire, he showed a playful smile.
This made Huang Jianchen frown, and then shocked slightly as he heard a strange roar.
At first, it wasn't noticeable, but in the blink of an eye, it swept the whole platform like a raging thunderstorm.
Damn it!
As soon as Huang Jianchen constricted his pupils, he found Lin’s momentum changed as if a storm whirlpool rushed out of Lin’s body. It spun wildly across the air, creating a powerful force that could devour the world and disturb the regular balance of the earth!
What was it?
What a terrible and violent wind.
The audience was shocked and lost their voice. They thought that Lin Xun was bound to lose. Who would have thought that in a flash, Lin Xun would show an incredible power?
Did he hide his real strength just like Huang Jianchen had done before?

Many bigwigs in the boxes could not sit still as their looks changed slightly. It was unusual for all of them to judge wrongly. Lin Xun’s hidden strength was no doubt a slap to all of them.
Before their new reaction, the battle situation on the platform changed dramatically. Under the storm, all the ghosts and fires were swallowed up and swept away as if they could not withstand a single blow.
Such scenes interpreted how tornado swept clouds perfectly.
Rolling
It didn’t occur to Huang Jianchen that there could be such a change. He was hit directly by the storm. His whole person was thrown up and smashed dozens of meters away. The blood in his body was in tumult and he almost coughed blood.
His face changed sharply. The ghost fire burning in his eyes was still fierce as he couldn't believe his Ghosts’ Night could be so easily destroyed in this way.
The result was unacceptable to him.
More importantly, he was fully aware of the fact that he had found out the details of Lin Xun and could suppress him at this time, but it never occurred to him that Lin Xun would suddenly break out!
Didn’t this prove that Lin Xun had never used his real power before?
At this moment, the whole audience was shocked stiff by this scene and finally confirmed that Lin Xun had reserved his strength, or otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to make such a strong counter-attack.
In the box, Qi Yunxiao, Yuan Shu and other people's exuberant look also immediately turned rigid. They widened their eyes with a dull look.
“Lin Xun is really shrewd!”
Shie Yutang, who never changed his expression, also turned gloomy at this moment. Beside him, the aristocratic sons from the Forbidden City had long been stunned by this scene like ducks pinched by the neck.
“A wrathful storm reverses the whole situation.”
Chu Feng clapped his hands and laughed. His nervousness and worries were swept away completely.
“Childe Lin is so patient. He must have been waiting for this moment intentionally.”
Liu Qingyan said in a grumbling voice, but a smile appeared on her beautiful white face.
“Humph! I know that little bastard has a lot of ideas. He not only did this by intention but obviously meant to embarrass those who despise him. He really has no good purpose!”
Granny Wind snorted, her heart also slightly shocked. Lin Xun’s strike was really terrible. It was difficult to imagine how his thin body could have such a huge strength.
“This guy is bad as a year before.”
Mu Wansu spat smilingly and recalled some past events with Lin Xun.
“I knew that…”
Wen Mingxiu couldn’t help sighing with emotions. Lin Xun was getting stronger and stronger. She even grew a feeling that he was far beyond to catch up with.
In the past, they were still trainees practicing in the same camp…
…
At this time, Lin Xun was surrounded by green and illusory gloss, which made him appear more detached.
Lin’s image was tinged with mystery in view of his previous appearance of ordinariness.
On the contrary, Huang Jianchen was fierce from the beginning. When Ghosts’ Night was shown, his astonishing power had reached its extreme.
But Huang was frustrated by Lin Xun at that critical moment. By comparison, Lin Xun seemed to be much more outstanding with an unfathomable and immovable demeanor.
The exclamation in the field and the amazed eyes of all the people made Huang feel shame like having been stabbed in his heart.
He couldn't accept all this.
He had been keeping a low profile for too long. He wanted to make full use of this fight to get fame, but he was suddenly confronted with such a change. How could he stand it?
“I admit that I underestimated you before, but I won't give you another chance!”
Huang Jianchen climbed up from the ground, his face cold. He squeezed out words from his teeth solemnly.
“You've been saying that since the beginning of the battle. I advise you not to do that again. Otherwise, if you lose, you lose your face too. It's embarrassing.”
Lin Xun said earnestly and sincerely.
Many people in the audience found it unbelievable when they heard this, but after careful consideration, they understood Lin Xun’s words. Huang Jianchen was arrogant and looked down on Lin Xun since the very start.
Now, it seemed strange to repeat the same words since he had been defeated by Lin.
However, if Lin Xun had given such a remark at some other time, it might be acceptable for Huang. But at this moment, it obviously gave a sense of ridicule.
What was more, Lin Xun was so sincere that people could not help laughing.
In the box, Liu Qingyan also smiled. She realized for the first time that Lin Xun was not nervous at all. Instead, he was still so clever and tricky.
When Granny Wind saw this, she grew nervous as Miss Yan became a little different after knowing Lin Xun. If she...
Aunt Wind shook her head at once and stopped thinking about it. If something unexpected happened, she would be the first barrier for the bastard to pass.
On the stage, as Huang Jianchen heard Lin Xun's words and looked at Lin Xun's sincere expression, a strong impulse rose in his heart to smash Lin Xun’s face with his fists.
It was absolutely abhorrent.
Huang Jianchen was so hateful that he gnashed his teeth, and his face became gloomy. “Does this guy really think that I can't defeat him?”
Thousand Ghosts Prison ahead.
