Martial Master

In the illusion, Qin Chen and Fang Mu Ling quickly intertwined. With every intertwining, a shocking impact surged, stirring the void around them.

Using poison to counter poison!

Qin Chen had experienced many illusions. Sometimes, breaking through an illusion didn’t require one to forcibly remain awake; one could also completely immerse oneself in the illusion while keeping a clear mind, causing the illusion to collapse on its own.

Thus, since Qin Chen determined that Fang Mu Ling was born from this illusion, he chose to plunge directly into the illusion, hoping to use it to escape.

Boom!

Qin Chen unleashed a fierce attack on Fang Mu Ling.

However, what Qin Chen did not realize was that as he and Fang Mu Ling merged time and again, strange abyssal powers surged around them. This abyssal power exuded a chilling aura, far stronger than before, radiating a cold light.

An invisible force was released, causing Qin Chen's pupils to turn pitch black, interfering with part of his consciousness.

Around them, the entire Cosmic Sea Path felt as if it was being corroded, teetering on the verge of collapse.

“Ugh!”

Under Qin Chen's ferocious assault, Fang Mu Ling felt her entire body heating up and let out a muffled groan.

After all, she was still inexperienced, and this was her first attempt; she had never experienced such violent impacts before. At that moment, she felt like a weak sheep, constantly rising and falling on a tumultuous sea, enduring layer upon layer of impact.

Yet within her body, a trace of the abyssal origin's aura formed, merging with the power from Qin Chen during their intertwining, creating a special and strange force between them.

This force was very subtle; neither Qin Chen nor Fang Mu Ling noticed it at all.

In the outside world.

Fang Mu Ling stood there in a daze. To outsiders, she showed no signs of abnormality, but in reality, her body and soul were enduring endless impacts, and a special aura slowly emanated from her.

“What is this…”

Suddenly, Tuoba Ancestor sensed something, his brows furrowing as he looked towards Fang Mu Ling.

“Senior Tuoba, what’s wrong?” The Abyssal Manor Lord couldn’t help but glance over.

“Something is off.” Tuoba Ancestor frowned, feeling a strong sense of crisis rising within him, as if doomsday were approaching.

“Swish!”

Tuoba Ancestor's figure flickered and suddenly appeared in front of Fang Mu Ling.

“Senior Tuoba, what are you doing?” The Abyssal Manor Lord's expression changed, quickly stepping in front of Fang Mu Ling, his expression tense.

Right now, Qin Chen was undergoing a trial, and Tuoba Ancestor was undoubtedly the strongest person present; with a snap of his fingers, he could destroy the Abyssal Manor Lord.

“Move aside!”

Tuoba Ancestor glared at the Abyssal Manor Lord, looking extremely displeased, his gaze passing through the Abyssal Manor Lord and fixing on Fang Mu Ling.

The Abyssal Manor Lord's heart sank as he frowned, saying, “Senior Tuoba, my daughter hasn’t offended you, has she? Isn’t it a bit excessive to target a junior like this?”

At that moment, the Abyssal Manor Lord cursed inwardly.

Damn it, this is against the rules of martial ethics! Fang Mu Ling was the strongest trump card between his Abyssal Manor and the Tuoba Family, the main link to Qin Chen. Could it be that Tuoba Ancestor wanted to harm his daughter while Qin Chen was still undergoing his trial, to solve the biggest headache for the Tuoba Family in the future?

Tuoba Ancestor was instantly taken aback by these thoughts.

What is this guy thinking?

But his expression didn’t relax; he focused and said, “Your daughter is acting strangely.”

“My daughter is acting strangely? Senior Tuoba, you must be joking!” The Abyssal Manor Lord’s face darkened.

Tuoba Ancestor’s expression was serious, “I’m not lying to you, nor do I need to. Your daughter seems to be emanating a special power. Even I can feel a sense of foreboding from it. Although I don’t know what has happened, I know something is definitely wrong with her right now.”
