#396 - Chapter 396 Lin Zhong

Lin Xiong was stunned, a trace of disbelief flashing in his eyes.

Of course, he remembered that his uncle, Lin Zhong, was one of the most outstanding martial artists of the Lin family when he was young.

But after venturing out and returning, he fell into a slump.

But even if his realm declined, his uncle was still at the Blood Refinement Completion stage, just one step away from the Bone Forging realm.

It was just that the years were unforgiving, and Lin Zhong's body gradually weakened, and he gradually withdrew from the stage of cultivation.

"Uncle, you…" Before Lin Xiong could finish speaking, he saw Lin Zhong sway.

His originally hunched body instantly straightened like a pine tree.

The wrinkles on his old skin seemed to have been smoothed out.

A powerful surge of blood energy emanated from his body.

The old man, who had difficulty even maintaining the Blood Refinement realm,

now had an aura comparable to Bone Forging.

No, it was even stronger than the Bone Forging martial artists Lin Xiong had seen.

"Patriarch, I also had opportunities when I went out.

Now that I know my choice was a mistake,

then I will pave the way for the family, risking this old bone of mine!"

Lin Xiong was moved and was about to say something when Lin Zhong smiled brightly.

"Haha, Magistrate Liu, one person does something, one person takes responsibility.

I was actually deceived by you back then, causing my Lin family to suffer losses.

Then today, I will let you see the true strength of my Lin family!" Lin Zhong laughed loudly, his figure as fast as lightning, instantly pouncing towards Magistrate Liu.

The soldiers guarding Magistrate Liu were no match for Lin Zhong.

Seeing this, Magistrate Liu's face changed drastically. He never expected Lin Zhong to still have such strength.

Seeing Lin Zhong about to get close, he hurriedly waved the long sword in his hand, trying to resist Lin Zhong's attack.

But Lin Zhong's strength after taking the medicine was too powerful.

Every move he made contained terrifying power. Magistrate Liu could only barely resist and had no power to fight back.

Seeing this, the Lin family disciples cheered. They saw hope and the dawn of victory.

Magistrate Lin was exasperated: "Old thing, you're just taking forbidden medicine.

You'll be dead and your blood will be gone in a quarter of an hour. What's there to be proud of?"

Lin Zhong laughed: "Dying in the right place, dying in the right place!"

Smiling on his face, the moves in his hands became even more ruthless.

The Lin family's Fire Yang Palm, when used by Lin Zhong, doubled in power.

The burning sensation brought about by burning one's own blood energy was enough to incinerate the enemy's body.

Looking at the vigorous figure of his uncle Lin Zhong, Lin Xiong's heart was filled with mixed feelings.

This sudden change shocked and worried him.

Every move Lin Zhong made seemed to be telling of the past glory,

the power that had once been almost forgotten by the years, now erupted like a volcano.

"Uncle, why are you doing this!" Lin Xiong murmured in his heart, but did not dare to interrupt this determination.

Lin Zhong's actions were for the family, to wash away the shame of the past, and even more for that heavy responsibility.

On the battlefield, the confrontation between Lin Zhong and Magistrate Liu became more and more intense.

Lin Zhong's Fire Yang Palm was as hot as the scorching sun, each strike carrying a destructive power, burning the surrounding air and distorting it.

Although Magistrate Liu's swordsmanship was exquisite, he seemed more and more powerless in the face of Lin Zhong's absolute power.

"Ah!" With a scream, Magistrate Liu was finally hit by Lin Zhong's palm,

and the whole person flew out like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground, spitting blood, obviously seriously injured.

Seeing this, the Lin family disciples cheered even more enthusiastically. They seemed to have seen the moment when the family would regain its glory.

A trace of worry flashed in Lin Xiong's eyes. Although his uncle Lin Zhong had temporarily gained the upper hand, that power was maintained by forbidden medicine. Over time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Quick, don't let the elder's efforts go to waste, keep up with the team and retreat."

Sure enough, after a while, Lin Zhong's aura began to become chaotic.

His face was pale, and beads of sweat on his forehead rolled down like soybeans, apparently approaching the limit.

The reason why forbidden medicine is called forbidden medicine

is because it stimulates the flow of blood energy in the human body, bringing a brief burst of glory.

During this period, the user naturally needs to endure the pain of the body being burned.

After the blood energy is burned out, the user's life will also disappear.

But even so, Lin Zhong's eyes were still firm, and he continued to grit his teeth, insisting on the final battle with Magistrate Liu.

Seeing that Lin Zhong's body had visibly shrunk by half,

Lin Xiong couldn't bear to look anymore, waving the long knife in his hand, fighting to find a way out for the Lin family.

He chopped at people when he saw them, and his attacks became heavier and heavier, gradually losing his rhythm.

And Lin Zhong only had the enemy in his eyes. He didn't dare to look at the Lin family members behind him anymore.

Once again, he gathered the strength of his whole body, preparing to launch the final blow.

His old bones had little time left, and there was only so much he could do for the family.

He was deceived by the enemy when he was old, which was ridiculous.

Fortunately, he still had a backup plan.

"Sacrificing my remnant body will surely win a way out for the Lin family."

Lin Zhong seemed to recall the difficulties and obstacles of the Lin family's rise.

His body was crumbling due to overexertion,

but his eyes were surprisingly bright.

Magistrate Liu was terrified. He knew that he would probably not be able to escape unscathed today.

At this moment, a loud sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded, and a black shadow broke through the front line and stood in front of Lin Zhong.

Lin Zhong took a closer look and saw that the person was an old man wearing a hood and a black robe, with an unfathomable aura.

At least, much stronger than himself who had taken forbidden medicine.

Seeing the person coming, the fear on Magistrate Liu's face disappeared,

and he sneered at Lin Zhong: "Hmph, Lin Zhong, do you think you can win today?"

Then he got up and said to the black-robed old man: "Sorry for the trouble, Elder Liu."

The black-clothed old man did not speak, but just looked at Lin Zhong indifferently.

Magistrate Liu didn't take it seriously and was used to everything about the black-robed old man.

Lin Zhong was shocked. He didn't expect Magistrate Liu to have such a powerful helper.

He was not afraid at all, and with the idea of ​​desperately fighting, every move was a life-threatening style.

He launched a fierce battle with the black-robed old man.

Lin Xiong took the opportunity to direct the Lin family disciples to continue attacking Magistrate Liu's army, trying to break through a path in one fell swoop.

Lin Zhong's self-damaging killing moves only landed on the opponent a few times.

But the black-clothed Elder Liu moved quickly, and his whole body was like refined iron.

Even if he was hit, he only shook slightly before recovering.

He quickly entangled with Lin Zhong,

and Lin Zhong's aura became more and more sluggish.

The appearance of the black-robed old man made the battle situation once again confusing.

Lin Xiong was extremely anxious.

Today's matter is related to the life and death of the Lin family.

He must try everything possible to buy time for his uncle and win the hope of victory for the Lin family.

But, where is the way out? ?
