The Peerless Emperor

At that moment, Lin Qian and Qin Feiyu faced off in midair, while the spectators around them were silent as sparrows. Qin Feiyu hailed from the Emperor Qin Dynasty, one of the foremost backgrounds among the many geniuses present. Moreover, among the geniuses there, his strength was also one of the most formidable, a fearsome presence. Otherwise, when Lin Qian spoke those words earlier, they wouldn't have believed him so readily. In their eyes, Qin Feiyu's previous sword strike, though swift in his fury seeking to hit Lin Qian, hadn't been delivered with his full strength, thus significantly reducing its power. Yet, even so, it wasn't something that someone at the Life and Death Body Realm could withstand. Even if one were exceptionally talented, facing such a strike from the Life and Death Heart Realm, even if they survived, they would be gravely injured. But what about Lin Qian? Through the tear in his chest robe, everyone clearly saw that Qin Feiyu's sword strike had merely left a white mark. Lin Qian was unharmed, not even a hair out of place. "What a terrifying physique, can the Tribulation of the Body really make one's physical body so immensely strong?" one of the young geniuses observing remarked, his eyes fixed on the figure under the crimson gold thunder. Another beautiful woman, with wide-open almond eyes, continuously expressed her amazement as she looked at Lin Qian in the sky, "What's truly unexpected must be his Soul Light, twelve layers of Soul Light, did he achieve them through twelve cycles of rebirth?" "That's absolutely impossible, ten cycles of rebirth are already the limit, there can't be twelve cycles," one person continuously shook their head, clearly unable to accept what was happening before him. Another person scoffed and looked scornfully at the skeptic, "The truth is right before our eyes. Soul Light might be concealed, but it can't be faked to increase." "Haven't you guys realized, he has an Ancestor Level Martial Soul!" someone gasped, looking at the Thunder Night Sword in Lin Qian's hands, unable to hide his shock. "We have to admit, this South Meeting seems to have brought forth an incredible individual from our Human Clan." Facing Lin Qian, Qin Feiyu also regarded his opponent intensely. He wasn't foolish, how could he not see the strength Lin Qian was displaying? Qin Feiyu even had to admit that his opponent's talent was not inferior to his own. In fact, it might even be stronger. What could he do even knowing this? Qin Feiyu was now in a dilemma and his eyes were filled with jealousy as he looked at Lin Qian. Why did his opponent have so much more talent than himself? He was the third Prince of the Emperor Qin Dynasty, of high status, and yet he still couldn't compare to some nobody? Moreover, if such a talented individual, only being at the Life and Death Body Realm, already possessed such formidable combat power, he feared that if Lin Qian truly rose to power, he might become a terrifying entity. His enmity with Lin Qian had now been established, and if he allowed Lin Qian to grow, it wouldn't just be bad for him, but potentially disastrous for the Emperor Qin Dynasty behind him. "I must kill him!" Qin Feiyu, previously proud as the third Prince of the Emperor Qin Dynasty, had now completely changed his mind, determined to kill Lin Qian here no matter the cost. Any threat that emerged must be nipped in the bud. "This guy has incredible talent, as I'm sure you both have seen," Qin Feiyu said directly to the princes of Wei Guo and Qiu Country after making up his mind. "If we don't kill him now and let him escape, our days ahead might not be so easy." The princes of Wei Guo and Qiu Country, who were allies of Emperor Qin, had a very good relationship among themselves. Upon hearing Qin Feiyu's words, both of them thought it made a lot of sense. When they looked at Lin Qian, their expressions were unfriendly, and a murderous intent surged in their eyes. Immediately afterward, Qin Feiyu transmitted his soul consciousness to the Five War Generals behind him: "This man must not escape. We must exhaust all means to kill him here." "Yes!" The Five War Generals, wearing golden masks, took the command and gradually started encircling Lin Qian from different directions. Unperturbed, Lin Qian quietly hovered in midair, letting Qin Feiyu lead the fifteen men from Qiu Country and Wei Guo to slowly form a surrounding circle against him. Seeing Lin Qian trapped, Fang Ziqian snapped his folding fan shut with a "snap'', and soul power gradually emerged from within him: "It's no good, his realm is ultimately much weaker. His combat might be stronger, but there are too many of them." "I need to make a move. If this young man really gets in trouble, I can't bear the wrath of that old man back home." However, just as Fang Ziqian's words fell, a snow-white spear suddenly stabbed towards him from the side, its force swirling his robes. Looking at the spear shaft blocking him, Fang Ziqian, with a puzzled face, looked at Zhao Long, clearly not understanding why the other was stopping him. "This is the Emperor's amusement, please do not interfere," Zhao Long's undeniable voice rang in Fang Ziqian's ears. Realizing what Zhao Long implied, Fang Ziqian knew if he wanted to help Lin Qian, he might have to fight with these men first. "What is this ridiculous situation, not even allowing someone to help?" Seeing Zhao Long's stance, Fang Ziqian could only reluctantly restrain his soul power. When he turned to look at Li Yunfeng and Yang Tianhao and asked uncertainly, "Don't you guys really worry at all?" Li Yunfeng and Yang Tianhao shook their heads at the same time. The former had been in contact with him so long, he obviously knew what Lin Qian was capable of. The latter had his life saved by Lin Qian and had seen with his own eyes how Lin Qian had single-handedly expelled the people of the Swift Hidden Clan from the void. For some reason, they just believed that Lin Qian could undoubtedly win against Qin Feiyu and the others with his own strength. In midair, Lin Qian looked at Qin Feiyu and the others approaching him and, seeing the undisguised murderous intent in their eyes, chuckled, "What, want to kill me?" After Lin Qian spoke, Qin Feiyu didn't bother to reply further, just stared at him and commanded, "Attack!" As soon as Qin Feiyu gave the order, the Five War Generals behind him sprang into action, brilliant golden soul power bursting out from them, all possessing the sharp gold attribute soul power. And their armed Primordial Weapons, like Qin Feiyu's, were all golden swords, with a sharp aura emerging on them, as if nothing could withstand their penetrating power. The five fully armed War Generals stood around Lin Qian from five directions, tightly surrounding him, their auras interconnected and forming a large net. This aura net enveloped Lin Qian from above, and with murderous intent in their eyes, the War Generals, holding their golden swords, charged at him. At the same time, a massive sword Qi condensed from gold attribute soul power also formed above Lin Qian's head, ready to strike down at any moment.
