Chapter 668: Stealing the chicken but losing the rice
Under normal circumstances, Yang Yinghai can deal with most opponents by relying only on this method.
Now in order to deal with Lin Tianming, he also used the bottom-line method without reservation, just thinking about opening up the situation as soon as possible.
However, looking at Lin Tianming's appearance, it seemed that he had gotten rid of his undermining tactics without much effort.
Such a result really shocked Yang Yinghai once again.
Moreover, Yang Yinghai had no idea how strong Lin Tianming was.
The more this happened, Yang Yinghai's self-confidence became lower and lower at this time, and his momentum began to decline.
Looking at Lin Tianming opposite, after he stabilized his figure, when he looked at Yang Yinghai opposite, he felt equally worried.
You must know that under the blow just now, Lin Tianming felt uncomfortable from the inside out.
After all, what Yang Yinghai activated was spiritual magic. The number of thousands of sword qi was so huge that it almost covered most of the space inside the entire sword formation.
Moreover, the power of each sword energy is very strong. Even if Lin Tianming has five-color eyes, he will be under great pressure to deal with it.
In the end, although he successfully survived this round of attacks, he also suffered some trauma. This was technically the first time he was injured since he participated in the Liang family's war.
Although the injury was not serious, the impact on his strength was almost minimal.
But this result is enough to show that Yang Yinghai's strength should not be underestimated.
Especially Yang Yinghai's trump card is very powerful and fully capable of posing a fatal threat to Lin Tianming.
Based on these, we can also see the background of the Tianqing Sect and the background of Yang Yinghai as a veteran late-stage Jindan monk.
Because of understanding this, Lin Tianming was much more afraid of Yang Yinghai at this time than before the war broke out.
After calming down a little, Lin Tianming's sense of urgency became even stronger at this time.
In his opinion, Yang Yinghai was able to cultivate to the current level and reached this level very early. He must be proud of it.
In addition, Yang Yinghai is able to make a big name in Jinfeng Kingdom and the surrounding area, so there must be something worthy of praise for him.
Just like his weird defensive magic weapon, it has been able to improve his combat effectiveness a lot.
These conditions do exist objectively.
Now, the entire war has begun, and the competition between the two sides has reached a fierce stage.
Especially the battlefield between the two of them has begun to fight for their lives.
Next, Lin Tianming cannot waste time, he must defeat Yang Yinghai as soon as possible to avoid adding variables.
After all, the Earthly Evil Sword Formation has been formed and continues to shrink under his control.
Other than that, he still takes the absolute initiative now, and the next situation completely depends on his attitude.
Under such conditions, there was really no need for him to delay.
Under such circumstances, Lin Tianming has made up his mind.
So in the next moment, Lin Tianming took the lead in attacking.
At that moment, Lin Tianming jumped up and moved forward nimbly.
Still in mid-air, the Tiangang Sword in Lin Tianming's hand had already opened its bow left and right. In an instant, a large amount of sword energy burst out and rushed towards Yang Yinghai.
Seeing Lin Tianming so fast and attacking so decisively, Yang Yinghai couldn't help but look solemn.
As Lin Tianming made successive attacks, Yang Yinghai did not dare to delay, and immediately dodged left and right, trying to find a way to distance himself from Lin Tianming.
At the same time, Yang Yinghai is not far behind.
When he retreated, Yang Yinghai once again used several third-level attack talismans to distract Lin Tianming and delay time for himself.
Immediately afterwards, the long sword in Yang Yinghai's hand flashed with light, and the spears of ice were condensed.
After a series of actions by Yang Yinghai, these ice spears roared out and soon landed above Lin Tianming's head.
Yang Yinghai's shots are very fast and his momentum is very strong.
From a distance, Lin Tianming felt the cold and biting wind coming towards him, which made people shudder.
Feeling this, Lin Tianming knew very well that it was clearly the aura coming from the Ice Spear.
And such an attack is very powerful, even he must be careful to deal with it.
As time passed slowly, under the watchful eyes of Lin Tianming and Yang Yinghai, their attacks collided head-on.
"Rumble..."
At that moment, I saw fire in the sky, bursts of light shining in the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a wave formed, and finally spread in all directions.
In the previous firelight, a large amount of sword energy activated by Lin Tianming was frozen by the ice spear, and finally dissipated.
As for the ice spear, it continued to attack Lin Tianming.
At this time, Lin Tianming also noticed this through the colorful eyes and felt such changes.
In this regard, Lin Tianming was very calm and was not affected by this change, let alone being flustered by it.
Seeing the ice spear getting closer and closer, Lin Tianming looked as normal and then stretched out his palm.
In an instant, after the elements in the air tumbled, an invisible big hand was formed.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Tianming waved his hand, and his invisible big hand directly grabbed the ice spear.
At this time, I saw the ice spear in the invisible hand shaking violently, as if trying to break free from the shackles of the big hand.
Seeing this situation, Lin Tianming's eyes flashed with light, and his expression was slightly distorted.
Then, he saw the ice spear trembling even more crazily.
However, Lin Tianming's invisible big hand firmly grasped the ice spear, and no matter how hard it struggled, it could not break free.
Just like this, it lasted for several breaths.
In the end, the Ice Spear seemed unable to withstand the violence of Lin Tianming, and finally began to slowly break apart.
In less than two breaths, the ice spear has disappeared, and the invisible hand has also disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Yang Yinghai looked solemn.
He knew in his heart that Lin Tianming used the terrifying power of the physical body again.
Only with such a strong body like his, he can be so calm and calm, and can neutralize this round of his attacks so easily.
In this regard, Yang Yinghai was a little helpless, and the feeling of fear in his heart became even stronger.
At this moment, the two attacks ended, and the sky temporarily returned to calm.
On the surface, the two of them had a back-and-forth with each other, and no one meant to take advantage.
But in fact, Lin Tianming's physical strength is powerful, and his true energy, mana, and spiritual consciousness are somewhat stronger than Yang Yinghai.
On this basis, Lin Tianming was doing two things, while dealing with Yang Yinghai, the Earth Evil Sword Formation was also continuing to narrow its scope.
Up to now, the Disha Sword Formation has shrunk to more than 200 feet, and the entire sword formation barrier has gained a certain degree of resistance.
If this continues, maybe within a few rounds, the range of the sword formation will be able to be controlled within a hundred feet. At that time, the effect of the Earthly Evil Sword Formation can be regarded as impregnable.
Even with Yang Yinghai's cultivation strength and the use of powerful methods, it is not that easy to break the Earthly Evil Sword Formation.
At this time, Lin Tianming was somewhat expecting such a result, and his whole body reacted a little faster.
So, he started to take action again, with no intention of stopping.
At that moment, the Tiangang Sword in Lin Tianming's hand flashed with light, and then turned into a long dragon and roared out.
In the blink of an eye, the long dragon had crossed a distance of tens of feet and arrived not far in front of Yang Yinghai.
Seeing this scene, feeling the breath coming from the long dragon, and the momentum coming towards his face, Yang Yinghai's expression was extremely solemn.
Next, Yang Yinghai stabilized his mentality and then began to counterattack.
In less than an instant, Yang Yinghai waved his sleeves, and a silver-white bead appeared in the palm of his hand.
Seeing this thing, Yang Yinghai showed a look of reluctance.
But soon, he threw it out and smacked it towards Lin Tianming.
At this time, Lin Tianming also saw a series of actions by Yang Yinghai.
When he saw the white bead appear, his expression immediately changed a lot, and he was obviously very afraid of this bead.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
Because this bead is called ‘Starlight Bead’, this bead has an extraordinary origin and is a three-level consumable.
Unlike other third-level consumable treasures, this starlight bead is said to be the inner elixir of a starlight beast.
As an adult, the Starlight Beast is a fourth-level monster. Its natal magical powers are extremely strange and its strength is extremely powerful.
Another key point is that the inner elixir of a starlight beast is usually very large and extremely powerful when it self-destructs.
At the very least, its power is more than doubled compared to the self-exploding inner elixir of ordinary monsters of the same class.
As for Yang Yinghai’s starlight bead, it has a good aura.
Based on these judgments, Lin Tianming concluded that this starlight bead should be the inner elixir of a late third-order starlight beast.
Moreover, it has reached the third level, which is almost the limit.
Once such a starlight beast's inner elixir self-destructs, its power should soon match that of a strong man who is about to break through the Nascent Soul stage.
Because of understanding this, Lin Tianming looked solemn at this time and retreated in a hurry.
However, this bead came very quickly, and even Lin Tianming’s colorful eyes could hardly catch it.
Almost in an instant, this starlight bead collided with Lin Tianming's Tiangang Sword.
"Rumble..."
A loud noise was heard, and then a mushroom cloud was seen rising into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a huge wave centered on the collision place and spread in all directions.
Before this, Lin Tianming also saw everything that happened in the sea of fire.
In his sight, the Tiangang Sword was directly thrown away by the huge force, and finally fell to a corner in the sword formation.
The power of the starlight bead's self-destruction was too strong, and the air waves rolled up swept across, directly covering the entire space inside the sword array.
During this period, although Lin Tianming retreated quickly, he still could not break out of the sword formation in time.
Therefore, Lin Tianming still withstood the attack of the air wave.
As the air wave came, Lin Tianming felt as if his body had been slapped by a mountain.
Not only that, when the air wave hit, the Earth Evil Sword Formation shook wildly, hovering on the edge of being broken at any time.
If it weren’t for Lin Tianming’s mental connection, he would always be wary of these things, and hold his mind tight at the first moment, fully controlling the operation of the Earthly Evil Sword Formation.
Otherwise, the Disha Sword Formation is likely to collapse directly under this blow.
Fortunately, such a result could not be achieved, leaving Lin Tianming with a certain degree of initiative.
But this is only the situation on the sword array side. Lin Tianming's own strength is not weak at all.
When the air wave rolled in, his body flew out uncontrollably, and finally hit the sword array barrier heavily.
For a time, the energy and blood in Lin Tianming's body surged wildly, and some meridians almost went out of order.
When Lin Tianming came to his senses, his face immediately turned pale and his breath became sluggish.
Moreover, Lin Tianming couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, staining his chest red.
Finally suppressing the discomfort in his body, Lin Tianming's eyes were slightly red, and his murderous intention was even more intense.
And before, Yang Yinghai, who was opposite him, also felt uncomfortable.
After all, this starlight bead exploded by itself, but it attacked indiscriminately.
The only difference is that as the party using the Star Bead, he already knows the power of the Star Bead's self-destruction and can prepare countermeasures in advance.
As a result, Yang Yinghai took the lead in activating his defensive magic weapon and used its special function to offset and rebound most of the impact.
However, the self-destruction power of this star light bead is too strong. No matter which party it is, it must bear the power of self-destruction.
Although Yang Yinghai only had to withstand a small part of the power, he still felt huge power when the impact came.
At that moment, the blood in his body started to boil automatically due to the force of the shock.
Moreover, many meridians throughout the body were trembling, obviously suffering a strong impact.
Under such an impact, Yang Yinghai did not have the strong physical fitness of Lin Tianming.
In this way, even a small amount of power still made Yang Yinghai complain endlessly, and finally vomited a lot of blood.
At this moment, he couldn't help but regret that he had been too hasty. Not only did he use up powerful consuming treasures like the Star Beads, but he also lost a trump card that he could rely on.
In addition, he suffered a great deal of pain and suffered a certain amount of injuries, which made it even worse for him who was already at an advantage.
Especially when he saw Lin Tianming getting up from the ground, his face was calm and his breath was relatively peaceful.
It seems that Lin Tianming was not severely traumatized.
At least, Lin Tianming's condition is still at its peak, and it is obviously much better than himself, the person who activated the Star Bead.
And such a scene did not go according to Yang Yinghai's pre-conceived plan at all.
Looking back at himself, after spending such a high price, not only failed to seriously injure his opponent, but he also suffered more serious injuries.
So, Yang Yinghai's goal of this method was far from being achieved, and eventually he got himself into greater trouble.
Such a result is simply stealing the chicken but losing the rice.
When Yang Yinghai understood this situation, when he looked at Lin Tianming again, his inner thoughts were shaken, and his fighting spirit immediately dropped a lot.
