Cosmic Trading System-Chapter 713 672: Ten years east of the river, ten years west of the river.

"Boom——"

Soon, Lin Yun exchanged blows with Ironwood Ancestor. Most of Ironwood Ancestor's magical tools had been depleted, so they were now fighting hand to hand, causing explosions in the starry sky. Both bodies swiftly moved backward.

"So powerful!"

Lin Yun's face slightly changed, inwardly exclaiming.

The Ironwood Ancestor was severely injured and suppressed by Xia Qingqing's mental domain, which should have weakened his strength considerably. He felt the Ancestor was still stronger than Ao Hai.

If he hadn't been injured, or if he'd only been slightly injured, what then?

At that moment, Lin Yun slowed his attack speed, rapidly communicating with Xia Qingqing, and they coordinated their efforts.

Alone, he was not a match for Ao Hai. He had to rely on Xia Qingqing's mental attack.

"How is it possible? This man, is he not only at the mid-term realm of the twelfth level? His strength can almost rival that of a regular Half Step Super Warrior..."

The Ironwood Ancestor was astonished and couldn't believe what he saw.

The stronger one was, the harder it was to fight against higher ranks. A twelfth-level mid-term warrior with the strength of a Half Step Super Warrior was unheard of. What kind of genius was this? If this person were to advance to the late twelfth level, the peak of the twelfth level, or even the Half-Step Super Realm, what would happen then?

"Who exactly is this man? He can't possibly be an ordinary scion…" The Ironwood Ancestor thought, thoroughly shaken.

Dragons birth dragons, phoenixes birth phoenixes. It was extremely rare for a prodigy to be born of ordinary families.

At this moment, the Ironwood Ancestor began to doubt the information he had received.

Was such a talented figure really just a commonplace individual from the lower Civilization Star Domain?

On reflection... there were a lot of things that didn't make sense.

Even someone like Xiao Chong addressed this man as Master Lin and called him an honored guest. Was this really the treatment a "prisoner" deserved?

Lianshan and Huayang were quite well-known in the ninth-level Civilization Star Domain, and the Goddess of Life Emma White was just as famous. However, all these people willingly took action for Lin Yun... Was it really because they knew of Lin Yun's connection with the Bloodthirsty Sword?

A moment ago, when he attacked Lin Yun, the concerns in the voices of those people, were more than what they would express for a "captive".

Recalling everything, his suspicions grew.

After all, if Lin Yun was an ordinary person, how could he have a powerful artifact like the Bloodthirsty Sword?

Perhaps, there was a significant background he wasn't aware of!

It was this background that made Xiao Chong and six other Half Step Super Warriors treat him so courteously!

To make Xiao Chong and his six compatriots treat him so courteously and be willing to kill him without hesitation, breaking away from the Marvel Family. This kind of background could very well be one he couldn't afford to offend!

As he thought, the Ironwood Ancestor's complexion became even worse!

By that logic, everything he had done was all in vain. He was essentially seeking death!

However... the most crucial part... wasn't that...

The battle had already begun!

Lin Yun and his companions, were a lifeline he initially spotted!

Now, he realized that this wasn't a lifeline. It was a death trap!

His life was now in imminent danger due to this mistaken judgment!

Originally, the encirclement and attack rhythm of Xiao Chong and his companions were not fast. He could barely hold on till the members of the Marvel Family arrived. He had just directed his attack at Lin Yun and his companions and withstood many attacks, he thought that as long as he captured Lin Yun, he would be safe.

But he found out that Lin Yun's strength far exceeded his expectations.

He had already been wounded.

If Xiao Chong and his companions came over again, it would be difficult for him to deal with them.

"Run! Run! Run!"

Thinking of this, the Ironwood Ancestor turned around and fled, daring not to stay any longer.

"Thinking of fleeing? Stay there!"

A glint flashed in Lin Yun's eyes as he shouted.

Did he think he could come and go as he pleases? Was it that easy?

"Whirr——"

As Lin Yun spoke, Xia Qingqing's mental domain fluctuated, and she quickly unleashed a series of mental attacks.

Mental attacks were quick and would lock onto a target, making it very difficult to avoid. In an instant, they reached Ironwood Ancestor.

Ironwood Ancestor's body faltered slightly, slowing him down. His heart filled with shock and rage.

Whoosh——

At this time, Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing caught up, with him focusing on closing in attacks and Xia Qingqing on ranged attacks, they fought Ironwood Ancestor.

Although a lot had happened, in reality, from the time Ironwood Ancestor moved to Lin Yun's side, the chase, and the fight, was just a fleeting moment.

With the cooperation of Xia Qingqing, and as Lin Yun was only maintaining a fight and not focusing on heavy attacks, they almost matched Ironwood Ancestor after a few rounds.

"Master Lin's strength is so strong!"

"Doesn't he have the strength of a Half Step Super Warrior?"

"Miss Xia's mental attack is also not to be underestimated. Mental attacks are direct and straightforward, making them the hardest to challenge across levels. Yet, Miss Xia has unleashed such power!"

"If Master Lin and Miss Xia join hands, they might be able to compete with some powerful Half Step Super Warriors!"

On the other side, Xiao Chong and his party were astounded at this scene, swiftly dodging to the side, their breaths hitching in shock.

Especially Qing Luo, Meng Black, and Emma White.

Xiao Chong, Lianshan, and Huayang had always known Lin Yun's group was not weak, but appear even stronger now.

Qing Luo, Meng Black, and Emma White had not for a moment anticipated that Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing, who were only in the Mid-Term Realm, could be this powerful.

Such mighty power at such a young age?

That was terrifying.

They gasped in awe to themselves.

At this moment, their belief in Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing having a formidable background was even stronger, and they felt even more out of their depth.

What kind of immense power nurtured such prodigious talents?

Whoosh—

The fight between Lin Yun, Xia Qingqing, and Ironwood Ancestor was a furious, fast-paced chase and they were quickly caught up by Xiao Chong's party.

"Boom—Boom—Boom—"

The powerful momentum released by Xiao Chong's party swiftly attacked the Domain Power radiated by the Ironwood Ancestor.

The brief combat earlier had enabled Xiao Chong's six-man party to coordinate better. Their Domain Power slightly combined and formed an even more formidable force, as crushing as a stampede, rapidly assaulting the Ironwood Ancestor's Domain Power.

"Miss Xia's Mental Strength Domain Power weakened Ironwood Ancestor's overall strength considerably, excellent!" Xiao Chong's eyes sparkled slightly. This underlined the importance of mental power masters. Not to mention the Ironwood Ancestor's injuries, their confidence in overpowering the Ironwood Ancestor grew with Xia Qingqing's aid, even if the Ironwood Ancestor was uninjured.

The Ironwood Ancestor had been injured just now, and now, his death would be even quicker.

"Boom—"

In the siege of the eight people, Ironwood Ancestor's released Domain Power was broken like bamboo, failing to hold after a while, completely collapsing.

Ever since then, Ironwood Ancestor was in a complete disadvantage.

The Domain Power released in a combat between warriors of this level was vital; it could not only affect others but also assist oneself. After losing the Domain Power, it was like a tiger losing claws and teeth, offered up for slaughter, losing most of their ability to fight back.

Unless he was a physical cultivator who could forcefully resist.

Unfortunately, Ironwood Ancestor wasn't a physical cultivator and his body wasn't vastly powerful.

"Bang—Bang—Bang—"

A barrage of powerful attacks landed on Ironwood Ancestor, creating large wounds on him, the most severe of which hacked off one of Ironwood Ancestor's arms. The starry space was covered with Ironwood Ancestor's blood.

For a while there, Ironwood Ancestor was in a pitiful state.

"You petty people dare to surround and attack me. You're courting death!"

"Have the guts to fight one-on-one!"

With long, disheveled hair and blood-soaked all over, Ironwood Ancestor hollered like a madman continuously.

"Ancestor!"

"Ironwood Ancestor!"

From a distance, people of the Marvel Family seeing this scene started screaming in horror.

Their family's pillar, Ironwood Ancestor, was losing!

And in such a tragic fashion!

Checking out the current circumstances, Ironwood Ancestor might likely perish there!

Some of them had just received a message from their family clan. Their half-step super warriors would take about seven to eight minutes to reach here!

However, considering the current circumstances, Ironwood Ancestor may not last seven to eight minutes!

On the other side, people from the Ouyang Family were equally stunned witnessing the scene.

In the beginning, they saw this group of people daring to provoke Ironwood Ancestor, never expecting this outcome.

Later, they saw the extraordinary power of Xiao Chong and some half-step super warriors, so they guessed Ironwood Ancestor would most likely lose and retreat... Only a few predicted or hoped that Ironwood Ancestor would perish there.

However, they were aware that the likelihood was slim.

Ironwood Ancestor was very powerful; even their Thunder Ancestor had mentioned that even if he moved against Ironwood Ancestor, he couldn't be sure of defeating him!

Now, these groups of people were about to do just that... How could they not be shocked?

"Haha! Serves you right! So, the Marvel Family dropped into a well, attacked us when our Thunder Ancestor fell! Now, your clan's Ironwood Ancestor is also going to perish. Very soon, your Marvel Family will end up in the same situation as our Ouyang Family!"

"For a decade in the east, a decade in the west, just a while ago, you were hunting us down, being so arrogant? I guess, you never imagined that your Marvel Family could fall to this point so quickly!"

Some people from the Ouyang Family quickly recovered, watching towards the direction of the Marvel Family happily.

The immense satisfaction and joy, the pressure they faced when the Ouyang Family, a former great power, collapsed instantly was immense. Now, watching the Marvel Family that hunted them going to meet a similar fate, how could they not be elated?

"Shut up! Shut up!"

A few people from the Marvel Family yelled in anger.

"Ancestor! Ancestor!"

"Ironwood Ancestor!"

Some people from the Marvel Family were fixedly looking at the battlefield, ignoring the Ouyang Family's mockery. They watched Ironwood Ancestor on the battlefield, putting up a desperate fight, continuously taking hits. Tears welled up in their eyes as their hearts filled with grief.
