"Boom! Bang!"

Because he forcefully killed Nan Eternal and Aolai Minglang, four of the top Super Warriors, Lin Yun wasn't able to fully defend against the attacks of nine Saint-level warriors.

At the moment when Lin Yun killed Nan Eternal and Aolai Minglang, his defenses were hit by the nine Saint-level warriors, all his defensive measures collapsed instantly, and a powerful force struck his body, sending him flying backward.

"Pfft!"

In the starry sky, Lin Yun's body doubled over, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"Brother!"

"Lin Yun!"

As Lin Yun killed Nan Eternal and Aolai Minglang, Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and the others were looking on from behind. Seeing this scene, they all felt their hearts wrench and cried out in shock.

"Run!"

Lin Yun raised his head, looked at Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and the others in the distance, cracked a smile, and shouted lightly.

At this moment, Lin Yun, with his head slightly bowed, his black hair flying wildly, his face pale, his white robe torn and blood at the corners of his mouth, looked extremely miserable. This made Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and the others feel even more heartache and sorrow.

They knew that at this moment, Lin Yun was using his life to carve out a path of survival for them.

It's just that such a path of survival was one they rather not have...

At this moment, a tinge of regret emerged in their hearts.

Perhaps, they shouldn't have been so willful earlier, not heeding Modan's advice to leave this place, or else they wouldn't have become a burden to Lin Yun.

"Hmm?"

Just then, one of the Saint-level warriors noticed Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group. His brows twitched slightly.

It wasn't that he had only just noticed Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group at this moment, but rather, it seemed that he had just realized the importance of Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group to Lin Yun.

This made him momentarily consider whether or not to target Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group to affect Lin Yun's actions.

Thinking thus, his Domain Power also unconsciously extended toward the direction in which Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group were escaping.

"Do you believe I will use you as a cushion for my own falls if you dare touch them? And, do you really think I'm done for? If I don't die today, won't be long before you're the one dying—do you believe that?" Lin Yun suddenly raised his head and glared fiercely at the Saint-level warrior, shouting loudly.

"What?"

Seeing Lin Yun's reaction, that Saint-level warrior was startled.

He hastily retracted the Domain Power he had extended.

He had already witnessed Lin Yun's strength, and even though there were nine Saint-level warriors dealing with Lin Yun together, who could say for sure whether Lin Yun didn't possess any powerful means of escape? Take, for example, the technique Lin Yun had just used to evade their joint siege; it caught them all by surprise.

Perhaps Lin Yun really did have a method to safely leave, it wasn't certain.

Even if he didn't, the possibility that he had the strength to take one or two down with him as he died was not small.

Why should he bring such a risk upon himself?

"It's better not to target those people!"

"True, if we kill those people now, it could provoke Lin Yun to leave recklessly, and that would be counterproductive..."

Other Saint-level warriors were also taken aback, sending telepathic messages among themselves.

Some of the Saint-level warriors had also considered targeting Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group, but they quickly suppressed such thoughts.

However, though they wouldn't deal with Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group, they certainly weren't planning to let Lin Yun go.

They simply made a decision that they wouldn't strike at those around Lin Yun until they had killed him.

Actually, this was a very common situation in the universe.

If the person involved wasn't killed, their friends and family were actually the safest.

Because many people and powers feared retaliation. If the person's strength was great, provoking them would truly result in both sides suffering without any benefit.

On the other hand, once the person was killed, many would kick them while they were down, and the ending for the friends and family of that person would then be terrible.

"Boom! Boom!"

Seeing that no one else was dealing with Xia Qingqing, Lianshan, and their group, Lin Yun also settled down to battle against the nine Saint-level warriors.

However, the combined strength of these nine Saint-level warriors was too vast. Even though Lin Yun managed to dodge many of their attacks, he was still hit by even more, and his body continued to be injured.

"Hum!"

Suddenly, Lin Yun's body shuddered, and the aura on his body began to change rapidly.

It became stronger in an instant.

It was at this moment that the Bloodthirsty Sword, after refining a large amount of the essence blood of Nan Eternal, Aolai Minglang, and four top Super Warriors, finally allowed Lin Yun to break through to the second level of the Super Warrior realm.

Similar to previous cultivation stages, the gap in strength between the first and second levels of the Super Warrior realm was huge.

Lin Yun's power surged dramatically, which was undoubtedly like timely rain for his current situation.

"Boom! Boom..."

Lin Yun's resistance against the joint attack of the nine Saint-level warriors became much stronger.

"Lin Yun has made a breakthrough!"

"He has advanced from the first level to the second level of the Super Warrior realm!"

The nine Saint-level warriors exclaimed in surprise.

However, when saying this, they all felt somewhat strange.

Before this, they could never have imagined that they would be so concerned, so wary of a cultivator at either the first or second level of the Super Warrior realm.

At this moment, some of them once again became acutely aware that the Lin Yun they had been fighting had been only at the first level of the Super Warrior realm and had now just broken through to the second level.
