Chapter 954 Powerful Lin Rusheng!

On the top of Zhongnan Mountain, as John Doe and Lin Rusheng woke up, the crowd around them, who had been waiting for a whole day, immediately focused on the two of them. They were holding their breath and waiting for the battle to begin.

In the field, the two, who had just woken up from their recuperation, looked at each other and slowly stood up.

“John Doe, are you ready?” Opposite Fang Qiu, Lin Rusheng waved his sleeve, lifted his eyes to look at Fang Qiu, and asked.

As Fang Qiu swept over Lin Rusheng, he found that after one day’s recuperation, Lin Rusheng seemed to be different. He no longer looked like an ordinary Taoist priest but made people vaguely feel like a towering mountain coming to this place.

His aura alone was enough to suppress Fang Qiu.

“This is my battle of ascension.” Before Fang Qiu could say anything, Lin Rusheng continued, “The night after the auction, I’ve been cultivating and adjusting my state to my peak here. I hope you haven’t forgotten your promise. Show me your full capacity!”

“Of course,” Fang Qiu said blandly.

“Don’t hold back in the slightest in this battle,” Lin Rusheng stared at Fang Qiu and continued. “I will try my best to restrain myself from threatening your life.”

Fang Qiu snickered as he heard that.

As soon as the auction ended, Fang Qiu already knew that the politeness Lin Rusheng showed on the Wulin forum was all an act when he issued a challenge in public. This man was quite narrow-minded.

Now Lin Rusheng’s words made Fang Qiu feel his arrogance again.

Fang Qiu wouldn’t deny that Lin Rusheng was powerful, but even Chu Ying had died after fighting with him. How could Lin Rusheng still make such a remark? It was obvious that he looked down on John Doe and felt that John Doe was no match for him at all.

Shaking his head with a smile, Fang Qiu said, “Same here. I’m not hostile to you. You need me to carry out this battle of ascension, and I also need to fight with you to get improved. So I hope you won’t hold back. As for life and death… it’s up to fate!”

Lin Rusheng’s eyes gleamed and he said, “Okay. I hope you won’t disappoint me!”

“What an aggressive boy…” In the distance, on the top of a mountain, the four patriarchs couldn’t help laughing, especially Diwu Mingchuan, whose face was full of appreciation for Fang Qiu.

In the center of the field, Fang Qiu stared at Lin Rusheng opposite him, who couldn’t wait any longer. There was a flicker of excitement in his dark eyes.

This was the strongest person he had encountered since he entered Wulin!

How far could this person suppress him?

His palm waved and lifted in front of his chest. He then clenched his hand in the air.

A long sword was swiftly formed!

At the moment when the long sword was formed, Fang Qiu waved his right hand. A gust of wind blew around him. The strong pressure of wind hit the ground, causing the lush grass on the ground to sway wildly.

“Divine sword!”

Lin Rusheng’s eyes narrowed and the corners of his mouth curved uncontrollably.

As for him, the stronger John Doe was, the better.

In the battle of ascension, the stronger his opponent was, the higher the chance that he could obtain the Ultimate Enlightenment would be. He yearned that John Doe could improve to the same level as him, even to the guru level.

“So this is the divine sword?”

“What a powerful sword aura. The might of that sword is actually that powerful?”

“How marvelous. This divine sword is actually able to be formed out of thin air, and it’s even a material object!”

“I heard that John Doe got a set of particularly powerful swordsmanship from the divine sword. It seems that we can have a feast for our eyes today.”

It was the first time for multiple people to see the divine sword, so everyone was thrilled and looking forward to it.

“I haven’t used a weapon for ten years. Today I’ll fight sword with a sword!”

In the field, Lin Rusheng let out a hearty laugh and reached for the sword at his waist with his right hand. It turned out to be a two-feet-long silver short sword. Although the short sword looked like an ordinary dagger, the blade of the sword was exceptionally sharp. It gleamed with a layer of bright cold light, which was especially frightening.

Did he want to fight his sword with a sword?

As he looked at Lin Rusheng, Fang Qiu’s expression gradually turned cold.

His grip on the divine sword became tighter and tighter.

As he clenched his fist, he abruptly took a step forward with his right foot.

“Boom!” A gust of powerful internal Qi burst out from his body in an instant, making the solid bluestone under his feet sink. Several cracks spread out in all directions with his feet as the center.

“Fight!” The sound of expectation and excitement was heard from Fang Qiu.

A trace of surprise flashed through Lin Rusheng’s eyes when he felt the powerful aura erupting from Fang Qiu. He then felt extremely thrilled.

What he wanted was such an expert.

Under the wide sleeve, he flipped his wrist.

The two-foot-long short sword suddenly burst out enormous sharp sword Qi from the tip of the sword in Lin Rusheng’s hand, making numerous deep cracks on the bluestone under his feet.

Meanwhile, a gust of Qi power which was more aggressive than Fang Qiu’s also burst out from his body like a whirling wind.

The place was silent.

It was so quiet that only the sound of the wind could be heard.

“Don’t let me down.” Staring at Lin Rusheng, Fang Qiu murmured in his heart. Then he moved and took the lead in breaking the deadlock of competing with their momentum. He waved the long sword in his hand, moved his feet, and his body immediately turned into a black shadow. He tried to hit Lin Rusheng fiercely like a bullet shooting out of a gun.

“Ten years!” Lin Rusheng narrowed his eyes in the face of John Doe’s attack and growled in a low voice, “I’ve waited for ten years. It’s time to ascend!”

He moved.

Under the gaze of many people on all sides, he went straight to Fang Qiu.

Almost immediately, they crossed each other in a flash like the thunder in the dark clouds.

“Bang, bang, bang…” At the place where the two collided, rays of dazzling cold light flashed.

The deathly silence in the surroundings was broken in an instant!

As people took a closer look, the long sword in Lin Rusheng’s hand carried extremely terrifying Sword Qi and hit Fang Qiu’s sword at a blindingly fast speed.

As Fang Qiu requested, Lin Rusheng showed no mercy at all.

His terrifying strength and speed faintly suppressed Fang Qiu.

Fang Qiu raised his eyebrows as he felt the swish of pressure from the short sword in Lin Rusheng’s hand. He drew a perfect arc with his long sword and then slashed down!

“Whoosh!” Lin Rusheng moved his feet and retreated in an instant.

His movement was extremely light, and he could approach and retreat freely, which look much better than Fang Qiu, who could only be suppressed in the fight.

As the onlookers witnessed this scene, it also made them exclaim.

“So powerful.”

“I feel that John Doe has no chance of winning this time.”

“He is indeed the top one under the Guru Realm ten years ago. After ten years, not only did his strength not regress, but he also became stronger. No wonder this battle is called the battle of ascension. Lin Rusheng indeed has the power.”

“He’s incredible. I didn’t expect John Doe to be suppressed by him like this.”

“Hmph! Lin Rusheng is a figure of the older generation, and he rose to fame 10 years ago. Now, he actually has the nerve to exert all his strength to strike a young man. He’s truly shameless.”

“John Doe asked for it!”

The audience was shocked by Lin Rusheng’s formidable strength.

“Is Lin Rusheng actually so strong?”

In the crowd, Yun Yangzi was also stunned by the battle in the field, especially when he saw the attack that Lin Rusheng displayed. He couldn’t help but gasp and mutter, “With such a terrifying suppressive force, he did live up to the reputation as the chosen one of the older generation. The reputation of being the top one beneath the Guru Realm isn’t just a boast.”

“Are all the people from the old generation so powerful?” Diwu Qian was also astounded.

Both she and Yun Yangzi had personally fought with John Doe, so they had a certain understanding of John Doe’s strength.

However, compared to his strength when he fought with them, John Doe’s strength had improved a lot. But even so, in the battle with Lin Rusheng, John Doe was completely suppressed by him in terms of strength, speed, reaction, and moves.

Even though he was only slightly superior, this could decide the outcome of the entire battle in a fight between experts.

At the moment, even Diwu Qian and Yun Yangzi were sure that John Doe had lost.

Under such pressure, John Doe had no chance of winning at all.

“Lin Rusheng is truly sophisticated.” In the distance, Elder Zhan stared at Lin Rusheng in the battle, lightly nodded his head, and said, “To be able to achieve this under the guru level, his strength is remarkable. Mingchuan, that little fellow you root for is about to collapse.”

Diwu Mingchuan smiled and said, “It’s still too early to come to a conclusion. The thing I admire the most about this boy is his resilience!”

“Come on, Come on.” In the field, confronted with Lin Rusheng’s crazy attacks, Fang Qiu was so excited that he shouted secretly in his heart. He was so exhilarated that his hands and feet began to tremble as if he had been beaten by his opponent so seriously that he trembled.

He felt suffocated.

Lin Rusheng had suppressed him to the point that he was almost unable to breathe.

This kind of suppression was the strongest that Fang Qiu had never encountered. In the past, every time he was suppressed, he would use all his strength to seek a breakthrough.

But this time, he felt as if he was a seed buried in the ground. In the face of the huge pressure, no matter how hard he tried, he could not move at all.

But he didn’t give up.

He needed enough nutrients now.

The enormous pressure Lin Rusheng exerted on him was the nutrients he needed.

Holding his breath, Fang Qiu felt that he had been suppressed to the extreme. He even felt that he was about to knock down or even lose his defense.

However, his body was still resisting.

Fang Qiu knew that his potential was being stimulated. His body was absorbing the pressure that Lin Rusheng gave him because this was the nutrient he needed to take root and germinate if he were a seed!

It wouldn’t take long.

When enough nutrients were absorbed, there would still be a day when the seed sprouted and broke out from the soil even if it was buried underground!

While suppressing Fang Qiu, Lin Rusheng frowned and said, “Is that all you got? I’m so disappointed!”
