Chapter 591: Chapter 298: Power of Thunder
The Medicine Immortal Pavilion was filled with a murderous atmosphere.
Dozens of Elders simultaneously surrounded Lin Beichen.
Outside the towering trees, gusts of powerful wind howled.
Lin Beichen’s figure flickered, like a dragon in the nine heavens, stepping upon the air.
"You all hold him off, the rest go find anti-aircraft cannons. I refuse to believe we can’t kill him."
Elder Sun yelled furiously.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately took action.
Those with aerial abilities attacked from the air, while those without went to the armory to find weapons.
Lin Beichen stood high in the sky, watching them coldly.
"Foolish people."
Lin Beichen lightly waved the twig in his hand.
A gust of wind whistled, instantly transforming into a sharp blade, sending it into the crowd.
Several Elders were restraining him, never expecting Lin Beichen to strike at them!
As the sharp blade sliced through, they only felt as if something had fallen off from their bodies; looking down, they found themselves split into two halves.
A casual sword strike from Lin Beichen bore such terrifying power.
"Brother!"
The elder beside roared in grief.
Though not blood-related, they had lived together day and night.
Decades of camaraderie, watching each other being killed right before their eyes, how could their hearts not ache?
"Give me back my brother’s life!"
A middle-aged man roared, tearing off his clothes.
His upper body revealed a faint metallic sheen beneath the skin.
His shoulders trembled forcefully, and the skin surrounding the metal suddenly cracked.
Steel bones burst forth, emitting a deep blue glow.
Electrical currents converged in his palm, under the power of dozens of compressed batteries, a laser beam surged from his palm, akin to a pulse laser gun!
As the laser concentrated, a scorched smell permeated the air!
The next moment, the man’s body emanated a bright blue light from beneath his skin and flesh.
This Elder had transformed his flesh into laser weapons.
The shock of his brother’s brutal death pushed him to break through the Death Gate barrier, becoming the second Death Gate expert of the Medicine Immortal Pavilion.
"Flesh is weak, machines transcend! Could Mr. Song’s theory truly work?"
Elder Sun exclaimed.
"Elder Song was highly talented in his early years, said to be even more gifted than Qi Tiankuang, but he never reached Qi Tiankuang’s realm due to accidentally inhaling poisonous gas. When he was sent to us in the Medicine Immortal Pavilion, Mr. Li Jiang specially treated his body, saving his life."
Hearing this, Elder Sun’s eyes gleamed with golden light.
Beyond the peak realm could not harm Lin Beichen at all, but the Death Gate realm was different.
Now Elder Song had broken through the realm; though it was merely a recent achievement and he was far from being a true Death Gate expert, he could still probe Lin Beichen’s true strength.
"Admirable spirit, let me send you off."
Lin Beichen’s expression remained calm, his sword once again swung.
The twig in his hand flashed with golden brilliance, as if this casually broken branch had transformed into a golden sword.
Under the starlight, powerful Qi tore through the air, suddenly erupting into boundless flames.
Elder Song’s steel body was instantly engulfed by the flames; his Death Gate realm’s power hadn’t even had time to unleash before being swallowed by the flames, turning into a puddle of molten iron.
Silence fell over the scene, deathly quiet.
Death Gate realm, mechanical transcendence?
No matter the concept, it seemed to lose all significance in Lin Beichen’s hands.
With a casual flick of a tree branch, Lin Beichen could easily kill them.
No matter what theories they researched, the realms they broke through, even those who abandoned countless human aspects to achieve them, in Lin Beichen’s hands, seemed to hold no meaning.
All the Elders took a step back, their hearts trembling.
Elder Song’s sudden breakthrough had pushed him to become the Medicine Immortal Pavilion’s top expert, second only to Mr. Li Jiang.
If even he couldn’t withstand Lin Beichen’s casual sword strike, was this siege even necessary?
"Why are you all standing there? This is our territory!"
Elder Sun roared.
Bullets tore through the sky.
Whoosh!
Two shells slid through the air, carrying a shrill howl, flying towards Lin Beichen.
If martial arts cultivation couldn’t deal with Lin Beichen, then use modern weaponry!
Numerous armed personnel emerged from the windows of various buildings of the Medicine Immortal Pavilion.
Holding assorted weapons, including assault rifles, sniper rifles, rocket launchers.
And at the top of buildings, others were controlling anti-aircraft guns and various high-danger weapons.
Some of these weapons were designed to combat tanks, some against ships; a few barrels were even larger than a person, one shell could severely damage a ship weighing tens of thousands of tons.
"Interesting."
Lin Beichen’s lips curled into a slight smile.
This was the battle he imagined.
Simply relying on the power of flesh and blood, what challenge did that pose to him?
He initially thought these ancient clans wouldn’t use modern weapons; now it seemed they hadn’t been driven to their limits.
Previously in Japan, Lin Beichen indeed feared these weapons slightly.
But having survived a volcanic eruption, Lin Beichen’s realm had reached a new pinnacle.
"Fire of the Five Elements."
Lin Beichen said leisurely, lightly tossing the twig in his left hand, a flame suddenly appeared.
The flame constantly changed colors, starting with fiery red, then deep blue, finally glimmering with golden sparks.
The flame enveloped him, gradually forming a 3-meter light loop.
Within the loop, it seemed even the air ceased to exist.
