The Mysteries mastered by Lin Chen, besides The Way of the Five Elements, include ice, thunder, wind, and five others.
Through that Great Dao insight, Lin Chen's mastery of these eight Mysteries has reached an extremely profound level.
However, Lin Chen, facing Liu Yong at this moment, did not want to reveal too many cards in front of so many people.
So, Lin Chen manifested the Mystery of Wind into his swordsmanship.
Whoosh—
A force capable of rending heaven and earth emerged, instantly transforming into an intensely sharp hurricane.
On Liu Yong's side, two water and fire dragons, along with a blade wind he slashed out, immediately collided with Lin Chen's unleashed Hurricane Sword Qi.
Boom—
The terrifying energy exploded instantly, causing the entire duel platform to tremble.
The powerful energy collision impacted against the defensive array surrounding the platform, causing countless ripples.
As if it could break through the array at any moment and extend beyond the platform.
Liu Yong stared at the Hurricane Sword Qi before him, utterly astonished, unable to believe that this attack was unleashed by the person in front of him.
He could feel that Lin Chen's comprehension of the Mysteries far exceeded his own.
This was simply astounding, after all, Lin Chen was only at the Fifth level of the Nirvana Realm, yet his mastery of the Mysteries surpassed his own, which was incredible.
Yet the evidence was right there, leaving him with no choice but to believe it.
Liu Yong glanced toward Lin Chen, his fists unconsciously clenched, his heart filled with conflicting emotions.
Lin Chen had a formidable physique, with a comprehension of the Great Dao far beyond his own.
Additionally, he possessed the ability to fight across levels, spanning several major realms.
Any one of these traits, placed on a martial artist, could forge a powerful Heavenly Pride.
However, all of these formidable qualities were concentrated in Lin Chen alone.
Using the term "unparalleled Heavenly Pride" to describe the Lin Chen before him was an understatement.
Even compared to the Heavenly Prides that appeared from Yunlong Heavenly Palace, the extraordinary one from a century ago, he was unparalleled.
Liu Yong, looking at Lin Chen, felt a tinge of fear rising within him.
Lin Chen was too monstrous, causing him to reconsider if it was worth antagonizing someone like Lin Chen.
Yet, this thought vanished as quickly as it came.
He had already made an enemy of Lin Chen, how could he waver?
Ever since he attacked Lin Chen and Zhang Hongying in the Secret Realm, Liu Yong was destined to be a mortal enemy of Lin Chen.
Facing a Heavenly Pride like Lin Chen, there was only one thing he could do, and that was to eliminate him before he fully matured.
A Heavenly Pride does not equate to a true powerhouse.
Before maturing, a Heavenly Pride is just that.
Only after maturing does a Heavenly Pride become a true genius.
With this in mind, Liu Yong's gaze toward Lin Chen was no longer tinged with fear.
Though Lin Chen's physical body was stronger, and his Mystical talent far surpassed his own.
Yet, in terms of realm, Lin Chen's cultivation was far lower than his.
Thus, Liu Yong immediately exerted all his strength, launching an attack on Lin Chen.
At this moment, he directly ignored the rules of Yunlong Heavenly Palace, intent on using all his strength to kill Lin Chen on this duel platform.
Lin Chen noticed this, a cold smile graced his lips, and he enhanced his released power.
Three different attribute Mystical powers continued to clash, releasing powerful energy ripples.
Beneath the duel platform, the observing disciples watched the battle between Lin Chen and Liu Yong in complete silence, all struck speechless by the breathtaking fight.
What shocked everyone the most was Lin Chen's strength, for being at the Fifth level of the Nirvana Realm, he could still fight Liu Yong to a stalemate.
On the duel platform, the battle lasted for a full hour, with both parties sustaining significant impact injuries.
However, Lin Chen's physique far surpassed Liu Yong, with injuries rapidly recovering.
Yet, judging by the current result of the fight, Lin Chen knew that without revealing other cards, defeating Liu Yong would not be easy.
Similarly, for Liu Yong, defeating Lin Chen would also be extremely challenging.
However, Liu Yong constantly believed that his cultivation was far superior to Lin Chen's, and that, as long as they continued to fight, he would eventually wear Lin Chen down.
After all, Lin Chen's spiritual power should be no match for his.
Moreover, Lin Chen's recovery from injuries would undoubtedly consume his vitality force.
Therefore, if they continued to fight like this, he would eventually be the winner.
But how would Liu Yong know that, due to Lin Chen cultivating the Primordial Transformation Art, his spiritual power was much stronger than average martial artists of the same level.
So his strategy was doomed to fail.
If they were to fight as Liu Yong expected, it would be Liu Yong who would ultimately exhaust his spiritual power.
However, Lin Chen did not intend to continue the battle any longer, as dragging it out was of no benefit to him.
Thus, Lin Chen swung his sword again, leaping towards Liu Yong to attack.
Liu Yong saw this, and swung his blade to counter.
However, just as his blade swung, and as the sword and blade clashed, Liu Yong felt his Divine Soul dizzying with the crisp sound of the clashing weapons.
"Not good!"
By the time Liu Yong reacted, it was already too late.
In a battle against Lin Chen, there could be no moment of distraction.
Although his momentary dizziness wasn't due to inattentiveness, but rather because his Divine Soul was attacked.
Yet in a duel of experts, a slightest miscalculation could lead to a colossal mistake.
In that fleeting moment of soul dizziness, his movements paused momentarily.
And in that instant of lapse, Lin Chen slashed down upon Liu Yong, sending him flying backward, blood spurting wildly from his mouth.
When Liu Yong's Divine Soul cleared, realizing the trouble, he felt excruciating pain envelop his body, particularly a stifling pressure on his chest, making it hard for him to breathe, and then Liu Yong fainted on the ground.
This battle, in the end, was won by Lin Chen.
Actually, during that final strike, Lin Chen withdrew his spiritual power, otherwise, Liu Yong would have died.
But as Lin Chen had just arrived and entered Yunlong Heavenly Palace, killing Liu Yong would surely result in punishment by Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
Lin Chen, wanting to avoid dealing with the Law Enforcement Hall, spared Liu Yong's life.
Watching Liu Yong faint, Lin Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
