1856 Six Winds Monarch Technique

As Lin Mu continued to rise into the sky, the blazing winds destroyed the ground. 

But Feng Baxing wasn't going to let Lin Mu escape that easily. He gestured with the Shearing Hurricane Fan and made the winds follow his will.

~SIZZLE~

The very air itself sizzled while the moisture dried out. The hot air rose and left a flickering mirage which made it hard to see the topography behind it. Lin Mu was already about a kilometer up in the sky and the fiery winds were fast catching up to him.

Lin Mu felt the heat reach him and knew that he wouldn't be able to outrun this. As such he quickly used the ring and switched into a different set of clothes. Most people thought that he had changed into defensive clothes or something, but that was not the truth.

"Guess I'll just take this head on!" Lin Mu let Immortal Essence spread in his body and amplified his strength with it.

The ambient heat was high enough to burn normal people, but to Lin Mu, it was still something he could handle without any of his defensive skills.

A few moments later, the heat reached a level where he would need his True Gold Body forging Arts to defend against it. While it was a metal attribute technique and was weak against fire, it could still let him resist.

But when the blazing winds themselves hit Lin Mu, even his golden body was not enough to withstand it. His robes also ignited and were left in tatters. Thankfully, he had already expected his robes to get destroyed in this fight and had switched to normal robes instead of his regenerating robes.

Having compared them to Yao Changying's fight, Lin Mu knew that his regenerating robes might be able to recover as they wouldn't deal with that Grey energy, but if they were entirely burned or turned into shreds before that, the recovery ability would be useless.

~MOO~

It was at this time that Lin Mu finally showed his true prowess.

The Totem on his back glowed and released a great pressure. The Tyrannical Aura poured out of Lin Mu's body and coalesced to form the Tyrant Bull's figure in the sky.

The only thing was that the Tyrant Bull had no legs to speak off. All it had was a body, head and horns. But despite that it looked to be rather furious and let out a loud cry.

~Huala~

Lin Mu took this chance to amplify his arms with the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets and swung them downwards.

His arms enlarged at a moments notice and created a counter wind that pushed back against the Burning Prairie Gale. The Immortal Essence transformed and strengthened by the Tyrannical Aura protected Lin Mu's body and allowed him to withstand it all.

~SHALA~

A splitting sound was heard as the gust from Lin Mu's arms and the Burning Prairie Gale entered a stalemate. This lasted for a couple of seconds before the two attacks mutually repelled each other.

The Burning Prairie Gale was dispersed while Lin Mu's arms also returned to a normal size.

~huu~

Lin Mu let out a breath and checked the status of his opponent.

'Hmm… even with an attack that strong, his Immortal qi hasn't been drained much.' Lin Mu was now able to fully check how much Immortal qi Feng Baxing had.

Compared to the time when his robes had just been destroyed, Lin Mu reckoned the man had exhausted around 2% of his Immortal qi. 

Of course, Lin Mu didn't know how much Immortal qi the man had the start. It was likely to be even higher as the man had used a strong defensive skill too.

'Even if I take his current Immortal qi as the baseline, he has about 98% of his Immortal qi left… I got a while to go.' Lin Mu reckoned.

In his case, Lin Mu was at a similar state and hadn't expended much of his energy stores either. After all, Lin Mu had both Immortal qi as well as Immortal essence. 

With two types of energies at his disposal, even if he had used about 15% of his Immortal qi with the Second form of the Boulder Collapsing fist, he still had plenty to go. 

~TWANG~

Having assessed that, Lin Mu quickly drew out Wonder Seeker again and shot a flurry of fiery arrows.

~SHASHASHA~

"Humph! Mere fire arrows are a joke!" Feng Baxing was not pleased with his earlier attack failing and retaliated once more swinging the Shearing Hurricane Fan. "Six Winds Monarch Technique: Glacial Tundra Winds!" he made a different handseals, causing a freezing air to surround the fan.

A blue wind spread form the fan and froze everything in its path.

'Ice elemental Immortal qi mixed with Wind elemental Immortal qi now?' Lin Mu narrowed his eyes.

~HISS~

The fiery arrows disappeared into thin air when they were hit by the freezing wind. 

With Lin Mu's skill erased, the Freezing Winds were free to reach Lin Mu. Of course, Lin Mu retaliated against them with his arms again, using them as both defense and offense.

~WHOOSH~

The winds generated from his fists clashed against the Glacial Tundra winds, but it wasn't as effective as before. A thin layer of frost formed on Lin Mu's arms which he quickly shattered by flexing them a bit.

Of course, a chill also tried to invaded his body at the same time but was quickly eliminated by the Tyrannical Aura of the Tyrant Bull permeating his body.

'He can still withstand after that… that Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets body cultivation technique is as strong as the rumors say…' Feng Baxing thought in his mind but did not say it out loud.

After all, there was no way he would acknowledge someone who had insulted him.

Even if Lin Mu did know that, he wouldn't care much as Feng Baxing was an opponent he had to defeat.

"Try resisting this! Six Winds Monarch Technique: Desiccating Desert Breeze!" Feng Baxing used a different skill this time.
