WU DONG QIAN - KUN
Chapter 133: Cao Zhu

Staring at the smiling-looking expression on Lin Dong's face, a cold light flashed across the white-clothed man's eyes. He looked at Lin Dong and coldly spat out the word: "Junk!"

The moment the word came out of his mouth, the atmosphere in the square suddenly became tense. Everyone knows that today's problems will not end well.

The seta street

sir, Zi Yue also quietly sighed in relief. He had not expected that Lin Dong had such a temperament. A moment before, he had actually turned around and planned to leave, he had no doubt that if not for the last few words of the other party, Lin Dong would have thrown it away without turning around.

"I'm interested in discovering what makes you so special that the teacher respects you so much ..." Zi Yue stared at the figure in the square while muttering to herself. Even though he had managed to grasp a portion of Lin Dong's abilities in their exchange earlier, he still couldn't believe what grandmaster Yan had said: that he was inferior to him.

As one of the famous figures among the younger generation of the Symbol Master of Yan City, Zi Yue always had a certain level of confidence. Currently, he had reached the peak of the second stage Master Symbol seal and was only one step away from reaching the third seal. This kind of achievement was already outstanding among his friends.

Although he had heard about Wei Tong's defeat at Lin Dong's hands, Zi Yue felt that the biggest factor that led to his victory was his Yuan Power strength. With regards to the fact that Lin Dong was able to advance to the early stage of Yuan Dan at such a young age, he was indeed a little amazed, yet, that was the limit of his astonishment. No matter how strong one's Yuan Power was, it was useless in the Symbol Master Tower. There, only powerful Mental Energy would be one's greatest shield.

Plus, most of the clashes between Symbol Masters were based on Mental Energy, therefore, as long as Lin Dong exchanged blows with that white-clothed man, Zi Yue would be able to sense his true abilities.

In the plaza, Lin Dong looked at the man in white clothes who sneered. He knew that this person was deliberately challenging the Symbol Master of Yan City.

"You're planning on becoming a pioneer to test the Symbol Master of Yan City?"

After hearing Lin Dong's words, the white-clothed man's eyes narrowed slightly but he did not reply. Instead of sneering and saying: "Son, stop the nonsense, if you don't dare to fight then get lost and let the more capable person from your side out."

Although he sneered in his mouth, the white-clothed man was somewhat worried in his heart. Although he had a haughty personality, he was not stupid. Naturally, he would not come to the territory of another faction and become arrogant for no reason. The reason why he did it was exactly as Lin Dong had said, he was under orders to find out what kind of talent this younger generation member of Yan City possessed.

“Because so... Then, let's do.” Lin Dong chuckled before taking two steps back as he casually replied.

“Huh, brat, I am Cao Zhu from the Sky Fire City Symbol Master Guild. You better remember this name!”

The white-clothed man snorted as he spoke, however, he was clearly a sneaky person because before his words could fade, he was, several ice lights suddenly shot out from his sleeves and quickly flew towards Lin Dong.

“Ding ding!”

Faced with Cao Zhu's surprise attack, Lin Dong did not move, his finger lightly flicking a few black shadows also came out from his sleeve and easily blocked Cao Zhu's attack.

After blocking Cao Zhu's attack, the spectators discovered that the ice light was three sharp short swords. The short swords were all white, so much so that they seemed to emit a hint of coldness. Furthermore, when Yuan Lin Dong's Fractional Sect made contact with the short sword, in astonishment, he discovered that the Mental Energy he had covered the Yuan Fragment was stung by the cold, cold, it caused him to feel tremendous pain.

“Mysterious Ice Metals”

Lin Dong glanced at the three snow-white short swords covered with sharp saw teeth and managed to identify them. Mysterious Ice Metal was an unusual and rare metal that only formed in an extremely cold place. It had an extremely cold Qi which could be dangerous even to Mental Energy.

Lin Dong did not expect that Cao Zhu actually possessed a treasure like this, no wonder he dared to be so arrogant.

However, even though Lin Dong suffered a little at the hands of the cold Qi, Cao Zhu was even more worried in his heart. At the moment when the two sides were split apart when they collided, he surprisingly discovered that the Mental Energy he was covering with the Mysterious Ice Sword was unexpectedly nearly dispersed. Evidently, the former Mental Energy was stronger than his!

"Since when has such a powerful individual appeared among the younger generation of Yan City?" Cao Zhu muttered in his heart. Immediately after, the cold light in his eyes shone even brighter as the three Mysterious Ice Swords suddenly danced in the air, it turned into a sword image that emitted a powerful cold Qi as they cunningly shot towards Lin Dong.

From the looks of it, Cao Zhu seemed to be an expert at attacking by using Mental Energy to control objects. The complicated trajectory plus the additional cold Qi on the sword would be difficult to deal with even for early stage Yuan Dan practitioners.

However, this did not pose the slightest threat to Lin Dong. He raised his palm as ten Yuan Fractions burst forward, blocking Cao Zhu's three Mysterious Ice Swords with a 'ding ding dang dang' sound', so they were unable to encroach on the area within a few feet of Lin Dong.

Cao Zhu's Mental Energy control level was clearly lower than that of Lin Dong. Although Cao Zhu relied on the cold Qi power of the Mysterious Ice Sword, he was still unable to break the seemingly small defense of the Yuan Shards.

"Desire!"

Upon seeing Lin Dong running towards him, Cao Zhu was startled as his figure hurriedly retreated. Immediately after, a shock wave of Mental Energy quickly exploded from his Niwan Palace and ferociously attacked Lin Dong.

As he sensed the rapidly approaching surge of Mental Energy, Lin Dong's eyes flickered but he did not make any evasive maneuvers. Instead, he stretched out his palm, under his control, a Fate Soul Symbol appeared right under the layer of skin on his palm. Immediately, that Fate Soul Symbol wriggled as it turned into a Soul Symbol vortex.

“Chi-chi!”

Lin Dong's palm instantly grabbed the shock wave of Mental Energy, and what caused Cao Zhu to be shocked, was that the shockwave not only did not damage Lin Dong, it did not damage Lin Dong, it had even disappeared the moment Lin Dong grabbed it.

While Cao Zhu was shocked by this, excitement bubbled in Lin Dong's heart. This was because he had discovered that those Mental Energy shock waves were completely engulfed by the Fate Soul Symbol hidden within his palm.

"A cruel Soul Symbol, to think that it could even devour the attacks of other people's Mental Energy and assimilate it for its own use."

Lin Dong was surprised at once. This was the first time he had heard of such a cruel Fate Soul Symbol, he could not help but suspect; was this mysterious Fate Symbol really just a mere Soul Symbol?

The shock in his heart did not last long as Lin Dong quickly suppressed him. He raised his head and looked at the astonished expression on Cao Zhu's face and could not help but laugh. Lin Dong's body moved again and appeared before the latter, the Soul Symbol vortex on his right palm quickly grabbed Cao Zhu's head.

Upon seeing Lin Dong's hand swing towards him, Cao Zhu hurriedly retreated as his body emitted a surge of Yuan Power. However, since he was already no match for Lin Dong in Mental Energy, it was even more impossible to compete with Yuan Power. Therefore, before he could retreat, Lin Dong appeared behind the latter like a demon as his palm touched the latter's head.

Just as Lin Dong's palm was connected to Cao Zhu's head, the latter's body began to jolt violently. Horror quickly filled his eyes, as he discovered his disappointment, that the two Fate Symbols within his Niwan Palace began to tremble as streams of Mental Energy flowed out uncontrollably, before finally being sucked into Lin Dong's palm.

“Puchi!”

This strange difficulty caused Cao Zhu to become extremely desperate. Unable to deal with it, he forcefully turned his head as a blood arrow shot out from his mouth towards Lin Dong's throat.

Inside this blood arrow was an extremely powerful Yuan Power undulation. Clearly, this was Cao Zhu's last attempt and this move indeed caused Lin Dong to jerk his body backwards while Cao Zhu borrowed this brief moment to escape from Lin Dong's palm.

“Desir desire!”

Just as Cao Zhu was fleeing, Lin Dong's eyebrows shot up and with a flick of his mind, the powerful Mental Energy condensed before him into ten 'Toward Conceived Spirits'. In an instant, they appeared around the deathly pale Cao Zhu, the sharp tip of the needle sparkling with a cold light.

"Stop, I admit defeat, I admit defeat!"

As he stared at the long Mental Energy needles floating around him, Cao Zhu's body became stiff. Within a short few minutes of their exchange, he had been beaten so badly that he did not even have a chance to retaliate. Even the originally deadly Mysterious Ice Sword was easily deactivated. So, in order to avoid the physical pain, he immediately gave up as he shouted out loudly.

“Hss!”

Upon seeing this fellow admit defeat, the surrounding Yan City Symbol Master let out a hiss of disapproval. Many of them wanted to take revenge for the humiliation from before, they threw ridicule and ridicule at Cao Zhu, causing him to turn green with anger. However, before the threat of the Conferred Spirit Needle around him dispersed, he did not dare to open his mouth.

On the path, Zi Yue was also startled by this scene. To be honest, he was unable to make heads or tails out of this battle. No matter what, Cao Zhu was the second Seal Symbol Master and Lin Dong should not dominate the first.

Logically speaking, this should be so. If Lin Dong had used ordinary methods, he might have had to tangle for a while before finally defeating his opponent. Yet no one expected that Lin Dong's strange 'Soul Symbol Round' would be able to absorb most of the Mental Energy, within Cao Zhu's Niwan Palace, in such a short period of time. How could Cao Zhu retaliate?

Lin Dong smiled as he glanced at Cao Zhu, but did not immediately disperse the 'Toward Spirit Essence'. Instead, he beckoned with his hand and recalled not only the ten Yuan Fractions, but also forcefully retrieved the three Mysterious Ice Swords.

Upon seeing that Lin Dong had actually taken the 'Mysterious Ice Sword', Cao Zhu's cheeks began to tremble.

“Let this be my winning prize. Thank you very much."

Lin Dong chuckled, ignoring Cao Zhu's angry gaze as he stored the sword into his Qiankun bag. Lin Dong cupped his hands towards the latter as a thank you before withdrawing his gaze and casually glancing at Zi Yue. Without bothering to say anything, he turned out from the stage under the respectful gazes of the group of Symbol Masters of Yan City.
