I started with Emperor Armor and conquered Infinity.

Chapter 173 Seeing and hearing the domineering power

Lin Yao plummeted from mid-air like a broken-winged eagle, his feet slamming heavily onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

His body swayed slightly, and he felt his true energy flowing away like a flood breaking through a dam.

A deep sense of fatigue swept over me instantly, as if every muscle was protesting.

Despite possessing an incredibly resilient body made of fire, he still felt somewhat fatigued after fighting his way through the journey.

However, beneath that tired face, Lin Yao's eyes gleamed with excitement.

Looking back on the battles of these past few days, they were completely different from when he killed Nascent Soul Realm experts in the past.

Now, he relies entirely on his own strength to dominate the battlefield, keeping the power of the Emperor's Armor hidden deep within its sheath.

Every battle is a test of his skills, and his methods become increasingly diverse. He constantly refines his combat techniques and becomes more capable of dealing with unexpected situations.

Looking around, Lin Yao knew he was still in the center of a dangerous vortex.

Fortunately, he was currently inside the formation, and the flames around the formation were constantly spewing out surging heat waves, making it difficult for hostile cultivators to get close.

If it weren't for the protection of this formation, given his current exhausted state, he would probably have been in a rather sorry state if he had been ambushed.

"That's enough. I've already killed a late-stage Golden Core expert in today's fierce battle, so I can consider it a great success. Let Yun Tong and the others finish off the rest of the fight."

Lin Yao muttered to himself. He knew that one should not be greedy in everything, and that being overly assertive would only lead him to his doom.

Besides, he has already gained a lot from this battle, so there is no need for him to take unnecessary risks.

Having recovered somewhat, Lin Yao took a deep breath and began to carefully clean up the battlefield, leaving no corner unchecked, searching for any possible hidden loot.

Finally, amidst the chaos, he discovered a uniquely designed weapon, left behind by a reincarnator named Lin Li.

Just as he bent down to pick up the weapon, a crisp system notification suddenly rang in his ears.

[Ding, faction mission complete. Kills are calculated accordingly, and faction bonuses, item bonuses, both sides' strength bonuses, and drop item bonuses are applied. Random ability selection is then performed.]

Lin Yao's heart tightened suddenly. He held his breath and waited quietly for the extraction result.

[Draw complete. Obtained two B-rank story points, 2230 reincarnation points, and the new ability "Observation Haki".]

"What? Observation Haki!"

Lin Yao's eyes widened, his face full of surprise.

"This is an incredible ability from the world of One Piece! It's unbelievable!"

Deep in Lin Yao's memory, Observation Haki was an extremely powerful and mysterious force.

It can act like an invisible net, keenly sensing the aura, emotions, and strength of the creatures around it.

It can even accurately predict the direction and intent of the enemy's attack before the enemy makes a move.

Just like Luffy, who, in those perilous battles, relied on his Observation Haki to narrowly evade the enemy's deadly attacks time and time again.

It can also accurately sense the location of distant enemies on the vast ocean, leaving them nowhere to hide.

Powerful individuals like Katakuri and Fujitora have honed their Observation Haki to an unparalleled level.

Being able to foresee the future in an instant allows one to seize the initiative in battle and control the overall situation.

Lin Yao closed his eyes, trying to sense the mysterious power he had just acquired.

In an instant, he felt as if he had entered a completely new world, where everything around him became exceptionally clear and vivid.

You can feel the gentle breeze brushing your cheeks, hear faint sounds coming from afar, and even detect tiny fluctuations of spiritual energy hidden in the shadows.

He understood that this Observation Haki was not simply a form of energy, but a deep exploration and ultimate application of his own perception.

This perfectly compensated for his long-standing weakness in perception.

"However, apart from becoming more sensitive to the surrounding environment, no other significant changes have been observed so far."

He wanted to perfectly integrate this domineering power with his own cultivation system.

It seems that further exploration of Armament Haki and the even more powerful Conqueror's Haki will require a long period of time and tireless effort.

Lin Yao thought to himself that it wouldn't be long before he would shine brightly on the path of cultivation.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, Yun Tong was embroiled in a fierce battle.

Dressed in white, she resembled a white lotus blooming on the battlefield, beautiful yet deadly.

Originally, her plan was to first wipe out all the Foundation Establishment cultivators below the Golden Core realm, and then concentrate on dealing with the remaining dozen or so Golden Core realm experts.

However, when she encountered the powerful formation formed by the dozen or so Golden Core experts and Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, she chose to retreat temporarily.

Of course, this wasn't because Yun Tong feared these enemies, but because she had a longer-term perspective.

Once a prolonged battle ensues with these Golden Core experts, time will be relentlessly dragged out, which will undoubtedly have an adverse impact on the outcome of the entire battle.

She needs to wait for the perfect opportunity, a chance to turn the tide of the battle.

However, Yun Tong's retreat gave those Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators a misconception.

They mistakenly believed that Yun Tong was afraid of their strength, and that the latter's strength was nothing special, so a strange sense of arrogance welled up in their hearts.

Like a shark that has smelled blood, it tightly entangled itself around Yun Tong, hoping to achieve the feat of fighting across ranks.

However, an accident occurred.

Lin Yao unleashed a powerful formation, successfully altering the terrain of the battlefield and indirectly bringing all Foundation Establishment experts below the Golden Core stage under control.

Exclamations arose from all around.

At that moment, Yun Tong keenly caught this fleeting opportunity, and her eyes instantly turned icy cold.

With a flash, she streaked across the sky like a white lightning bolt and instantly charged into the ranks of the Foundation Establishment experts.

The magical weapon in his hand shone with a dazzling light, and every swing carried endless destructive power.

Those Foundation Establishment experts were like fragile ants in front of her, utterly vulnerable.

In an instant, shouts of battle rose from the battlefield, and the light of magical artifacts intertwined, illuminating the entire night sky.

Yun Tong's attacks poured down like a storm, each move precise and fierce, mercilessly reaping the lives of her enemies.

Those Golden Core experts who had been smugly pestering her before finally witnessed her true strength, and a look of fear appeared on their faces.

"You guys, you've been so arrogant in harassing me before, now it's time for you to pay the price!"

Yun Tong's voice was like a judgmental tone coming from the deepest hell, cold and majestic.

As the pride of the Longyuan Dynasty and even the entire Northwest Continent, she is by no means undeserving of her title.

Under Yun Tong's fierce attacks, the Foundation Establishment experts fell one after another, and the battlefield was soon covered in blood.

The dozen or so Golden Core experts were also intimidated by Yun Tong's aura. Their hearts were filled with fear, and they wanted to turn around and run away.

But how could they escape Yun Tong's grasp?

Yun Tong snorted coldly, and the magic weapon in her hand once again emitted a dazzling light, attacking the enemies.

Under her powerful attacks, those Golden Core experts fell one after another.

When the last enemy fell, the entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence.

Yun Tong put away the magic weapon and took a deep breath.

"They're really strong."

On the other side of the battlefield, Lin Yao quietly watched Yun Tong's heroic figure on the battlefield, secretly admiring her.

With the battle over, Lin Yao and Yun Tong led the group to clean up and organize the battlefield, collecting the magical treasures, pills, and various precious cultivation resources dropped by the enemies.
