Chapter 12542
In comparison, although these people had been infected for a longer period of time, in Fang Taichu's eyes they were at most just a bunch of scraps.
Now they are all dispirited and their strength has declined significantly, while Lin Yi is completely unharmed.
What's the point?
What no one knew was that Lin Yi had deliberately kept this a secret.
If it were to unleash its full power, it would no longer be a four-zhang Dharma form, but rather a pseudo-three-zhang Dharma form.
However, if that were the case, Lin Yi was afraid of frightening Emperor Sheng and alerting him.
Regardless of the circumstances, while everyone was puzzled, they were mostly pleasantly surprised.
After all, from their perspective, Lin Yi was the last hope of the entire village. Whether he lived or died today depended entirely on whether Lin Yi could salvage the situation.
At this moment, they would naturally hope that Lin Yi would become stronger!
Lin Yi did not disappoint them.
The four-zhang-tall Dharma Image was unleashed, and a Black Star Explosion immediately surged upwards, striking the giant golden hand on its head.
The giant golden hand shattered on the spot.
The whole scene was almost identical to the last time.
However, Emperor Sheng did not retreat.
If you're only forced to back out once, you can explain it away as not taking it seriously, being too lazy to get serious, and there are a bunch of excuses you can make up for.
If this happens again today, then there will be absolutely no excuse left.
Where does the dignified leader of the Five Saints put his face?
After the golden giant hand collapsed, all the power of the Dharma body immediately reconverged and instantly condensed into a humanoid phantom, vaguely resembling the appearance of the Emperor Saint himself.
The next second, the humanoid phantom swept across a hundred feet of void and swooped down directly in front of Lin Yi.
Golden light flashed in his hand as he launched a heavy attack from above.
However, before the heavy blow could land, Lin Yi's butterfly knife appeared in his hand, and he launched an attack first.
As he unleashed his first strike, he leaped upwards at an incredible speed, almost like teleportation.
"The Three Styles of the Ephemeral Flower?"
Someone blurted it out immediately.
The Three Forms of the Ephemeral Flower are usually performed bare-handed, and very few people use them in combination with weapons like Lin Yi.
After all, this secret technique is extremely difficult to master. Most people can't even master the basics, let alone combine it with weapons, making it even more difficult.
But it was obvious to anyone with eyes that Lin Yi's first strike was the first move of the Three Styles of Ephemeral Flower.
boom!
It was like Mars colliding with Earth; the shockwaves swept across the entire area in an instant, leaving the scene in complete disarray, with only a handful of people managing to stand firm.
"how's it going?"
Before they could regain their footing, everyone hurriedly checked the results.
Immediately afterward, Lin Yi unleashed another slash in mid-air, dismantling all of the opponent's defenses and launching them into an excellent position.
The second form of the Epiphyllum!
Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but exclaim, "The ability to counter the Three Styles of Ephemeral Flower is indeed powerful!"
To be precise, what's truly powerful is the judgment of the first move of the Ephemeral Flower.
It is a major taboo to fight someone of lower skill level than someone of higher skill level. Even if the opponent is a master of the same skill level, it is easy to be suppressed and unable to raise your head.
As a result, Lin Yi not only did not suffer any loss, but also used this opportunity to control his opponent. While the second move of the Ephemeral Flower was launching the opponent into the air and positioning him, the third move had already completed its preparation.
He slashed out with a single stroke.
The entire world seemed to darken for a moment in everyone's eyes.
The third form of the Epiphyllum!
The humanoid phantom then completely collapsed.
This time, the terrifying killing intent that had been hanging over everyone's heads since earlier finally dissipated completely.
After a long while, someone finally couldn't help but blurt out a comment.
"The Emperor Saint has been killed?"
The people around were dumbfounded: "How is that possible? That was just a Dharma Avatar of the Emperor Saint. How could the leader of the Five Saints be so easily killed?"
Even so, the scene before them still left them utterly shocked.
Even if it's not the Emperor Saint himself, it's still just a phantom of the Emperor Saint's Dharma form. Looking across the entire Heavenly Prefecture, there are very few people who can defeat this phantom.
Moreover, Lin Yi appeared so relaxed throughout.
This wave of Emperor Shengming arrived with obvious anger, and even if he wasn't there in person, he certainly wouldn't hold back in the slightest.
As a result, he was instantly killed by Lin Yi's three-part "Ephemeral Flower" technique.
Such a shock could not be comprehended by anyone other than the locals of Tianjun and the powerful families who knew the terror of the Emperor Saint.
"Awesome! Senior is awesome!"
One of the most powerful figures in the family couldn't help but shout it out.
The people around quickly chimed in, "They said before that Tianjun was going to change, and I didn't believe it. But after seeing it today, I realize I was an idiot. If it doesn't change now, when will it?"
"So much for being the leader of the Five Saints! He's nothing but a nobody in front of you, senior!"
"That's right! From this day forward, let's stop talking about the Five Sages of the Aristocratic Families. The era of the Five Sages of the Aristocratic Families is over!"
"Senior, I'd like to join the Termination Society. Could you accept me?"
"Me! Me! Count me in!"
"I want to join the Termination Society too!"
In an instant, the vast Cloud Peak Manor was transformed into a recruitment site for the Termination Meeting, and the key point was that every single one of these people was a well-known and influential family tycoon.
After all, someone who could be targeted by Fang Taichu could not be an ordinary person.
Such people are usually impossible to invite.
It should be noted that even among the powerful families of Tianjun who are on good terms with the Termination Society and share considerable common interests, very few of their patriarchs personally join the Termination Society.
Usually, at most, they would send one or two scions of prominent families.
Ultimately, we still have to consider the impact.
To put it bluntly, they were wary of the Five Sages of the aristocratic families, wondering if they would develop a negative view of their own family.
From their perspective, while the End Society is indeed thriving, in terms of overall strength, it still cannot compare with the Five Saints of the Aristocratic Families.
Even with multiple bets, they still believed that the Heavenly Palace was their core base.
But it is different now.
The Emperor Saint has openly declared his intention to kill them. Unless they are willing to die, they must join the End Society, even if it is only for their own survival.
Now, the only thing that can protect them and their families is the Termination Society.
To be precise, it was only Lin Yi.
Even Emperor Sheng himself probably couldn't have imagined that today's actions would force the creation of an unprecedentedly large corporation.
From this moment on, the Termination Society is no longer the same Termination Society.
With the addition of these powerful families, the End Society underwent a miraculous transformation overnight, becoming a massive force that reigns supreme over the entire Tianjun County.
After today, the End Society will be able to stand up to the Heavenly Palace head-on!
Lin Yi was somewhat surprised by this, but naturally he wouldn't turn people away.
He knew exactly what these people needed.
Even if they don't sincerely support the end of the association, even if it's just for self-preservation, they are still natural allies.
"Tianjun is indeed due for a change of fortune."
Lin Yi, true to his nature of keeping a low profile, did not want to reveal too much before truly revealing his hand.
But that doesn't mean we don't do anything at all.
Such groundwork is a necessary preliminary step. Even if there is no opportunity, we should actively create one, let alone when it has already been presented to us.
