Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character

Chapter 106: Battle Against the Half-Step Nirvana Realm

"How can you possibly have such a powerful puppet?"

Ling Lie was momentarily stunned. With his experience, he could see right away that it was merely a soulless puppet. What truly shocked him, however, was that this puppet seemed even stronger than he was!

"I told you, taking you all down is something I can handle alone." Lin Langtian's cold voice echoed as he stepped forward from behind the fierce figure, his icy gaze fixed on Ling Lie.

Ling Lie's face twitched as he growled, "I didn't expect you'd have a puppet at the half-step Nirvana level. I underestimated you."

At this, Ling Long and his two brothers froze, unable to believe what they were hearing. A half-step Nirvana-level puppet? How was that even possible?

"Kill them!" Lin Langtian ordered, his voice cold as he pointed at Ling Long and his brothers.

With Lin Langtian's command, the puppet stomped the ground, turning into a blur as it charged at the stunned Ling Long, Ling Hu, and Ling Quan, the sheer speed of its movement creating sonic booms that made their hearts race in terror.

"Oh, so he's sent the puppet to handle the three of them?" Ling Lie's old eyes squinted in confusion.

"This is just to ensure that no one escapes," Lin Langtian replied calmly. "As for your half-step Nirvana strength, I'd like to try it out myself." Standing across from Ling Lie, Lin Langtian made it clear he intended to face the half-step Nirvana master alone.

"How arrogant!" Ling Lie's face darkened, torn between amusement and anger. If he could kill Lin Langtian, the puppet would lose its master and be rendered harmless—or perhaps even become a prize to be claimed. Yet, to have a mere junior act so dismissively toward him was infuriating.

"You'll regret your arrogance!" Ling Lie scoffed, stepping forward and summoning a silver thunder mace to his hand. Covered in intricate runes, the mace crackled with the sound of distant thunder—a powerful weapon, indeed.

With the puppet's appearance, Ling Lie couldn't afford to be careless against such a skilled and resourceful young opponent.

"Boom!"

Thunder mace in hand, Ling Lie stomped the ground, shattering the stone floor beneath him. In a flash, he sprang toward Lin Langtian, his mace arcing violently through the air in a storm of crackling lightning.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As the lightning approached, the sheer force of the attack shattered the ground around Lin Langtian before it even touched him. But Lin Langtian gripped his own weapon, the Crimson Flame Sky Spear, and with a flick of his wrist, he unleashed a series of spear techniques that intercepted the oncoming assault.

Clang! Clang!

The mace collided with the spear, creating a fierce surge of energy that sent sparks flying. Seeing Lin Langtian daring to clash directly, Ling Lie smirked and unleashed a surge of silver lightning from his mace, which spiraled up the length of Lin Langtian's spear.

Sssst!

The strange silver lightning clung to Lin Langtian's spear, hissing as it burned with a ferocity that seemed to consume any elemental energy it touched.

The sight made Lin Langtian pause for a moment. This old man's weapon was indeed formidable, able to generate this unique lightning energy. But then he smirked.

"Black Flame, ignite!"

For most people, this lightning would have been lethal, but Lin Langtian was an exception. In the blink of an eye, the terrifying black flame of the Black Flame Physique surged up the spear, devouring the silver lightning in its path. The black flame then spread outward, transforming into a torrent that rolled toward Ling Lie.

The black flames clung to him, and Ling Lie quickly sensed his own energy beginning to burn away. "What strange power!" Alarmed, Ling Lie rapidly retreated, only to realize he had lost a significant amount of his elemental energy.

Seeing the variety and effectiveness of Lin Langtian's techniques, Ling Lie's old eyes narrowed, abandoning the idea of prolonged combat. His own energy surged outward, and the silver lightning coalesced into the shape of a massive beast.

The lightning beast, resembling a tiger, crackled with silver bolts cascading over its body. It looked like a living embodiment of thunder, radiating an aura of wild energy.

"Sky-Thunder Tiger Strike!" Ling Lie shouted, fusing his thunder mace with the lightning beast. With an icy glare, he unleashed the combined force toward Lin Langtian.

Boom!

The energy surged forward, and Lin Langtian instantly recognized it as a formidable Transformation Realm martial technique. The power was indeed terrifying.

"Black Flame Physique!"

"Heavenly Phoenix Seal!"

Lin Langtian smiled calmly, and the markings on the furnace within his dantian glowed brightly. The fiery energy within him surged forth, filling his limbs and muscles, enhancing his already formidable physique. With the dual-pattern Black Flame Physique, his strength was far greater than before.

A powerful aura, like a reawakened dragon, burst from Lin Langtian, drawing even Ling Lie's wary gaze. As he sensed the full extent of Lin Langtian's power, Ling Lie's killing intent only grew.

Now resisting Ling Lie's pressure, Lin Langtian focused his energy, conjuring a radiant silver phoenix in front of him. With the ground quaking beneath his steps, he charged head-on into Ling Lie's thunderous assault.

BOOM!

At the moment of impact, fierce shockwaves radiated outward in a rippling circle. The ground around them shattered, crumbling into dust under the sheer force of the collision.

Thud!

After stepping back eight paces, Lin Langtian steadied himself. His arm trembled briefly, but the fiery energy flowing through his body quickly neutralized the residual force.

On the opposite side, Ling Lie, who had also been forced back eight steps, planted his thunder mace in the ground to regain his balance. Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he looked at Lin Langtian in utter shock.

This round had ended in a draw.
