After being chased after my engagement was broken off, my Iron Shirt skill instantly reached max lev

Chapter 56 Instant Absorption, Wails of Anguish Everywhere

Ok?

When he saw that Li Xiuyuan had bypassed him with one sword and then pierced through him with another, and that Li Xiuyuan was even more ruthless than him, he was shocked.

It was obvious that they were aiming for a fatal blow, but at this moment, Shen Lin couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

Although Li Xiuyuan had cultivated true qi, it was obvious that his application of true qi was still very rudimentary. He had no idea that he had now spread true qi throughout his body, forming protective true qi, and had begun to integrate some of his own consciousness into true qi.

Facing Li Xiuyuan's fatal sword strike, Shen Lin did not dodge at all. His long sword trembled violently, and his violent true energy transformed into sharp sword energy, which landed on Li Xiuyuan's shoulder.

With a "whoosh," Li Xiuyuan's lightning-fast sword stopped at Shen Lin's throat.

Li Xiuyuan's gaze sharpened.

The sword strike, imbued with his own powerful true energy, was blocked by a layer of transparent true energy armor.

He could not make any further progress.

At that very instant, Shen Lin's sword pierced through the iron shirt covering his body, the sword energy tearing a gash in his black robe and leaving a deep sword mark on his shoulder.

Fresh blood gushed out instantly.

Li Xiuyuan took a few steps back and immediately channeled his true energy to the sword wound.

This minor injury didn't have much of an impact on Li Xiuyuan, but it did make him realize that once his cultivation reached the fifth rank, he had condensed a protective armor of true qi, making it difficult for ordinary swords and blades to break through.

This is equivalent to an invisible iron shirt.

However, just as that sword was blocked at his throat, Li Xiuyuan also sensed something: his Absorption Technique could absorb that protective true energy from a distance.

"Li Xiuyuan, I'll give you one more chance. Hand over that technique, and I'll spare you some pain. Otherwise, I can't guarantee I won't sever your arm next... then your legs, and finally..."

Li Xiuyuan, who was standing there, heard Shen Lin's words, looked at the guards and Shen family disciples who were gradually surrounding him, and sneered.

Before Shen Lin could finish speaking, he immediately flashed away.

"Pfft... Ahhh!"

Almost instantly, Li Xiuyuan rushed into the group of guards and Shen family members.

With a flick of his longsword, the guards and members of the Shen family who had no time to dodge were instantly pierced through the chest and had their hands and feet severed.

Screams immediately erupted one after another.

"Li Xiuyuan, you beast, stop right there!"

The sudden turn of events sent a shiver down the spines of Shen Lin and the remaining three sixth-rank elders.

Shen Lin looked at the severed arm that flew in front of him and immediately roared.

A chilling true energy emanated from the longsword in his hand, transforming into a sharp, icy sword aura that slashed down towards Li Xiuyuan.

But Li Xiuyuan didn't stop at all, and accelerated his movements even more!

Since Shen Lin had previously said he would cut off his hands and feet, Li Xiuyuan naturally had to comply with the demands of this Shen family patriarch.

Now that Li Xiuyuan is alone, he has nothing to lose and is not afraid of those who are wearing shoes. Not to mention that he was originally unscrupulous and had planned from the beginning to wipe out the Shen family of Yunzhou City at worst.

Naturally, he showed no mercy to the guards and members of the Shen family who had been searching for him throughout the city not long ago.

With a flash of sword light, another burly member of the Shen family had his arm severed.

Amidst a scream of agony, Li Xiuyuan swiftly dodged Shen Lin's sword strike, then grabbed a sixth-rank elder whom he had just severely injured.

Grasp with five fingers.

"Ah... my true energy, Li Xiuyuan, you..."

"Snap!"

Before the sixth-rank elder could finish speaking, Li Xiuyuan had already crushed his neck.

Although Eagle Claw Kung Fu is only a ninth-grade martial art, Li Xiuyuan, now at the sixth grade, uses it very smoothly.

"You little beast, you're going to die!"

Shen Lin's sword missed its mark. He turned around and saw that Li Xiuyuan had killed another elder. His eyes were almost bloodshot.

As he roared in fury, a chilling aura emanated from his body, and he slashed down at Li Xiuyuan's head with his long sword once more.

Even from three zhang away, Li Xiuyuan could feel the extreme chilling killing intent emanating from this sword strike.

It seems that the true energy that Shen Lin cultivates is the Frost True Energy, and this sword technique is at least at the sixth rank!

After we wipe out the Shen family, we must thoroughly search their premises to see if they possess any powerful cultivation techniques.

Although he now possesses the heaven-defying Absorption Technique, which allows him to seize the power of others, he still needs the help of the system to cultivate it to the maximum level.

These techniques must be obtained by oneself before they can be entered into the max-level system.

Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan threw the Shen family elder, whose power had been drained and whose neck had been snapped, directly at Shen Lin.

Li Xiuyuan took a step forward, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he weaved through the fleeing guards and Shen family members.

The two seventh-rank guards who had just been standing at the door were terrified when they saw this scene. Without any hesitation, they ran to the tightly closed door and were about to open it.

"what!"

But just as the two of them placed their hands on the door bolt.

They immediately felt a terrifying suction force enveloping them.

Not only was he unable to move, but his internal energy felt as if it had been grabbed out of his body by a powerful hand and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The two screamed and collapsed at the doorway.

As soon as he looked up, a sword aura swept towards him.

In the blink of an eye, two heads flew several feet away.

Turning around, Li Xiuyuan grabbed at the air with his five fingers.

Instantly, all the hundreds of Shen family disciples and guards who were lying on the ground or trying to turn around and run away in the front yard were pulled towards Li Xiuyuan, who was standing at the door, by a violent force.

"what……"

"No, no, I don't want to become a useless person!"

"No... Ah!"

Screams, pleas for mercy, and curses rose and fell.

But Li Xiuyuan didn't care at all at this time.

Although it was internal energy, only two elders had their true qi enter Li Xiuyuan's body.

However, under the Absorption Technique, the massive amount of pure internal energy that enters the body quickly enters the empty dantian and qi sea, gradually transforming into one's own true qi.

Seeing this scene, Shen Changlong, who was standing far away in a corner of the outer courtyard, was completely stunned.

He trembled as he watched the agonizing cries of countless people, the flying sand and stones, and the continuous flow of pure internal energy into Li Xiuyuan's outstretched palm.

Shen Changlong couldn't help but swallow hard, his whole body covered in cold sweat.

At the same time, Shen Lin, standing amidst the flying sand and stones, quickly gathered all his true energy and abruptly plunged his long sword into the ground.

The icy true energy within his body surged wildly, causing the temperature around him to plummet and emanate chilling air...

Shen Lin cultivated the "Frost Art," which produced Frost True Qi. In addition, he also accidentally obtained a powerful soul cultivation technique.

At this moment, facing the mysterious technique that Li Xiuyuan used to absorb people's power, he dared not be careless in the slightest.

After all, just now, he could almost feel his protective true energy rushing wildly toward Li Xiuyuan's outstretched hand.

This startled him so much that he immediately took several steps back, and then quickly activated the "Frost Ice Technique" to freeze all his meridians and his entire body.

He even used that divine soul technique, merging it into his cultivated icy true energy, completely transforming his body's true energy armor into icy true energy, which quickly formed a layer of ice armor enveloping his entire body.

That was barely enough to block the terrifying absorption power.

Looking at Li Xiuyuan standing at the door, absorbing the power of hundreds of people from a distance, his heart was filled with shock!

He originally thought that even if Li Xiuyuan had cultivated true qi, this mysterious technique that could absorb the power of others would only be able to absorb sixth-grade power.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Xiuyuan had just absorbed the power of hundreds of people from a distance, including some Shen family elders who were at the sixth rank of martial arts.

Most of his protective true energy was absorbed. If he hadn't activated the Ice Heart Technique in time to transform his true energy into icy true energy, sealing his meridians and freezing his entire body, he would have been in serious trouble.

I'm afraid most of my true energy will be absorbed.

Looking at the guards, elders, and Shen family members who had been stripped of their power and turned into cripples, cries of agony filled the air.

Shen Lin was shocked.

This young man in front of me is terrifying!
