Chapter 423 Charming Woman: Tuosen, you dare to tease me!

Lin Che's eyes flashed with indifference; without the slightest hesitation, he fully unleashed the rebound force from the seat. This power formed a torrent within him, gushing out through his fingers.

Lin Che's finger jabbed fiercely into Tuo Sen's chest. Golden power surged in like a tide, instantly scattering the black mist, and the wailing of the vengeful spirits abruptly ceased.

Tuo Sen's entire body stiffened, his thousand-zhang frame began to tremble violently, and the Ancient God star point in his chest gradually dimmed, clearly indicating damage to his core power.

"Exhilarating! With this method of proving the Dao through strength alone, you, Lin Che, are indeed worthy of being called an Ancient God!"

As Tuo Sen retreated, the alluring woman within the illusory net somehow reconstructed her physical body using an unknown divine ability.

Following an ethereal connection with Tuo Sen, she found her way here, just in time to witness the end of their fierce battle. Her expression drastically changed, murderous intent filled her eyes, and with a flicker of her figure, she was about to step into the net to help Tuo Sen kill Lin Che.

But just as the alluring woman's toe was about to touch the net, Tuo Sen, who had retreated close by, suddenly turned around. His right fist abruptly shot out, the force of the punch, imbued with the ferocity of Ancient God power, bore down directly on the alluring woman.

"Get out! How dare an outsider interfere in my clan's internal strife!"

The alluring woman had not expected Tuo Sen to attack her. In a hasty move, she quickly formed hand seals, and layers of pink silk ribbons instantly appeared before her, swirling like a tide to meet the sudden punch.

"Boom!"

A tremendous roar erupted. Already gravely injured, she instantly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, staggering back several steps. The seductive charm on her face vanished completely, replaced by ferocity and venom as she shrieked, "Tuo Sen! How dare you defy this concubine's will!"

Tuo Sen's eyes were filled with chilling light, and a cold sneer played on his lips. He raised his right hand again, Ancient God power coalescing into a storm in his palm, and slammed it towards the Immortal Concubine.

"Do you truly think this god is a reckless brute to be manipulated by anyone? If not for needing you to heal, how could this god tolerate your control! In this world, who is worthy of controlling this god!"

"You are merely a plaything of the Immortal Venerable, and you dare scheme against this god? Get lost!"

The roar shook the void. Tuo Sen's punch directly broke through the edge of the illusory net, forcing the already heavily injured Immortal Concubine to retreat further.

After she had retreated several thousand zhang away, Tuo Sen suddenly grabbed the edge of the net with both hands. Ancient God power surged into the net threads like a flood, forcefully pulling together the newly torn gap, resealing the net, and completely cutting off any possibility of the Immortal Concubine intervening.

All of this happened in a flash of lightning.

Tuo Sen shook his wrist, and as he turned around, his gaze once again locked onto Lin Che, battle intent burning fiercely in his eyes like a raging fire.

"Now, no one can disturb our battle."

At this moment, most of the stone platform had already crumbled, but as time ticked by, the inheritance countdown had reached the thirty-ninth breath.

The rebound force from the seat had long since reached the limit Lin Che could withstand.

Even though he was a Seven-Star Ancient God, with physical recovery far surpassing ordinary beings, and his two innate sources rapidly counteracting the impact, if he were to forcibly endure any longer, his physical body would inevitably collapse again, leading to his demise.

However, the more violent the seat's rebound, the more ferocious the inheritance aura contained within it became, surging into Lin Che's body like a breached dam.

On his brow, the vortex of the eighth Ancient God star point was visibly solidifying at a rapid pace. A faint golden halo circulated at the edge of the vortex, subtly showing signs of breaking through to eight stars.

Not only that, the Ancient Demon corpse beside him, which had not been damaged in the previous fierce battle, was now being frantically enveloped by a black demonic energy.

The demonic energy surged in through the corpse's right eye, and within Lin Che's perception, it actually manifested the second, third, and fourth demonic stars in succession.

Clearly, this ancient inheritance was not only nourishing his Ancient God power but also awakening the Ancient Demon innate source hidden within his body.

However, the gifts of inheritance always came with danger. As Lin Che actively accelerated the absorption of the inheritance aura, a tearing pain suddenly erupted in his left eye. Blood trickled down the corner of his eye, staining his cheek.

Lin Che's heart instantly understood.

This ancient inheritance originated from Ye Mo. Back then, Li Guang's arrow had blinded Ye Mo's left eye, leaving the inheritance incomplete. Now that he was forcibly drawing upon it, the incomplete innate source would backlash against his left eye, and the deeper he delved, the more intense the pain would become.

Just as Lin Che was enduring the excruciating pain in his left eye and desperately trying to balance the surging power within him, Tuo Sen, who had sealed the great net, had already taken large strides and was walking towards him.

The Demon God Tuo Sen suddenly raised his right hand to the sky, clenching his five fingers tightly. Amidst a rumbling roar, a hundred-zhang-long spear suddenly condensed from the void.

The spear was entirely dark gold, its shaft inscribed with ancient Ancient God runes. As the runes flowed, a heavy and domineering Ancient God aura surged forth. It was none other than the royal artifact left behind by Tu Si, the God-Slaying Spear!

"Lin Che! Take this spear of mine!"

Tuo Sen roared, gripping the God-Slaying Spear tightly in his right hand. He sharply angled his arm backward, and all the Ancient God power in his body surged into the spear shaft like a volcanic eruption.

The dark golden spear instantly erupted with dazzling light. Runes condensed at the spear tip into a golden spear light several zhang long, and the surrounding void was slightly distorted by this immense power.

In the next instant, Tuo Sen violently flung his arm forward. The God-Slaying Spear, like a bolt of lightning tearing through the heavens, shot towards Lin Che's chest with a sharp whooshing sound!

Wherever the spear wind passed, the shattered fragments of the stone platform were all swept up, forming a torrent of debris that followed closely behind the spear, its might utterly terrifying.

Lin Che's pupils contracted sharply. The intense pain in his left eye made his vision somewhat blurry, but the deathly pressure brought by the God-Slaying Spear instantly sobered him.

He dared not delay in the slightest. He slammed his left hand onto the remaining seat beneath him, pouring all his remaining Ancient God power into it.

Although the seat was mostly shattered, a trace of rebound force still remained at its core. He forcibly detonated it, transforming it into a faint golden energy barrier that blocked in front of him.

"Clang—!"

The God-Slaying Spear violently struck the energy barrier. The deafening metallic collision shook the entire palace, and golden sparks flew like a torrential rain.

The energy barrier instantly became covered in spiderweb-like cracks. Lin Che's entire body trembled from the immense force, his qi and blood churned, and his recently healed wounds tore open again, blood soaking his clothes.

But Lin Che did not retreat. He quickly touched his right hand to his brow, and the seventh Ancient God star point suddenly lit up. A pure Ancient God power surged along his arm into the barrier, barely supporting it to prevent it from completely shattering.

At the same time, despite the pain in his left eye, he stared intently at Tuo Sen, his mind rapidly contemplating a countermeasure.

Tuo Sen, wielding the God-Slaying Spear, had vastly increased his combat power. Directly confronting him offered no chance of victory; he could only rely on the power of the inheritance to contend with him.

Seeing that Lin Che had actually blocked the first strike of the God-Slaying Spear, Tuo Sen's eyes flashed with a hint of admiration, then his sneer grew even wider: "Still able to hold on? Then try this move again!"
