Lin Qian's words not only shocked Yun Menghai and the Yun family members on their platform but also surprised Yun Yunyan beside him.
For a long time, the Yuan family had held a transcendent position in the entire Central Region, known as the guardian clan.
Among them, the most powerful figure of the Yuan family, Yuan Supreme, was someone who commanded respect from all of humanity. Anyone who met him would respectfully address him as an elder.
And now, Lin Qian claimed that he could make such an outrageous declaration across the Central Region.
What a joke!
Upon hearing Lin Qian's words, the Yun family, including Yun Menghai, all thought that he was clearly talking nonsense.
Their disbelieving expressions were well within Lin Qian's expectations.
It didn't matter whether the Yun family believed it or not; the destruction of the Yun family in the Central Region was already an inevitable task.
His cultivation level would only continue to rise, and the power he could wield from the Huaxia Empire would grow stronger. Once his grandfather recovered from his illness, his strength would reach even greater heights.
From now on, Lin Qian could not only rely on the Huaxia Empire but also finally count on the support of his elders.
Paying no attention to the Yun family on their platform, Lin Qian suddenly pulled out several crystals, grinning as he turned to his father. "Father, are you ready to unleash your fury and get your revenge?"
"You cheeky boy, what are you up to now?" Emperor Lin asked, clearly annoyed, turning to look at his son standing on the platform above him.
Hearing his father's question, Lin Qian cast a glance at Yun Yi on the other side, his face showing a look of pity. He then crushed the crystals in his hands.
"Teammate Lin Qian has used a designated item: Secret Elixir of Joy. Emperor Lin's state has been restored to peak condition."
"Teammate Lin Qian has used a designated item: Impenetrable Defense. Emperor Lin's soul power defense has increased tenfold, effective only in the Joy Arena for the next half hour."
As the ethereal voice rang out, everyone except Lin Qian was stunned by the announcements.
Emperor Lin looked down at his hands, now glowing with a hazy green light that enveloped his entire body. He could clearly feel his injuries rapidly healing. In just the blink of an eye, the wounds that had troubled him were completely gone.
Not only that, but his depleted soul power had been fully restored as well.
Moreover, after all the running and recovering, his exhaustion was completely alleviated—he was now fully energized.
From the platform, Yun Yunyan could also see that her husband had regained his peak condition. His spirits were high, and his once pale face had regained its color.
The ethereal voice's claim of restoring him to peak condition was true.
Boom!
Scarlet-gold lightning erupted from Emperor Lin's body. After carefully assessing himself, he realized that his soul power had indeed become more solid, far stronger than before.
His soul power was naturally geared toward offense, and now that his defensive strength had increased so much, he no longer needed to worry about the reflection force from Yun Yi's shield.
In other words, from now on, Emperor Lin could launch attacks on Yun Yi without fear, knowing he wouldn't be hurt by the counterforce of the ice-cold shield.
The Yun family members on their platform could clearly see Emperor Lin's enhanced condition as well.
Yun Menghai slammed his fist against the invisible barrier, his face darkening with rage.
He had suspected that the other side wouldn't drag them into this place for no reason. Now he understood exactly what the so-called designated items were.
However, the Yun family didn't have a single one of these items, while the "bastard" on the other side had already used three.
The halftime break had given Emperor Lin, who was on the verge of defeat, a chance to recover.
Now, through these strange items, Emperor Lin had not only fully recovered but also reached peak condition. Judging by the soul power he was emanating, his defense had indeed increased tenfold.
At this point, Yun Yi no longer had any hope of winning!
Although Emperor Lin had only recently broken into the Transcendence Realm, he had been one of the prodigies of the Central Region thirty years ago—a force to be reckoned with.
"Mother, you should join in the fun and help Father too!" Lin Qian said, handing two more crystals to Yun Yunyan. "Go ahead, break them."
"Huh?" Yun Yunyan looked at the translucent crystals in her palm. One was a light green, with what seemed like swirling wind inside, while the other was vibrant and colorful, with tiny explosions happening within.
Curious about the unusual crystals, Yun Yunyan examined them closely before turning to Lin Qian with a puzzled expression. "Qian'er, these beautiful things… are we really supposed to break them? Isn't that a bit of a waste?"
"..." Lin Qian could only show a helpless smile at his mother's words. "Mother, I have plenty of these beautiful things."
"Oh!" Yun Yunyan nodded and whispered to him, "Well then, remember to save some for me later."
"Got it," Lin Qian replied with a chuckle. He had almost forgotten that his mother, Yun Yunyan, had a fondness for shiny and beautiful objects.
In fact, she had even once expressed a desire to build a house entirely out of soul crystals, saying it would look dazzling and beautiful.
Crack!
With a slight hesitation, Yun Yunyan finally crushed the two crystals. Lin Qian noticed a hint of reluctance in her eyes as she did so.
"Teammate Yun Yunyan has used a designated item: Featherweight Elixir. Emperor Lin's speed has increased tenfold, effective only in the Joy Arena for the next half hour."
"Teammate Yun Yunyan has used a designated item: Unlimited Power. Emperor Lin's soul power will no longer deplete, effective only in the Joy Arena for the next half hour."
After the two ethereal announcements, Emperor Lin stood frozen in place, clearly shocked by the second one.
Unlimited soul power? What kind of situation was this?
As green and rainbow-hued lights enveloped his body, Emperor Lin circulated his soul power at full strength. Testing his movements within the limited space of the barrier, he was amazed to find that it was all true.
His speed had indeed increased tenfold, and despite exerting his full strength, his soul power showed no signs of depleting.
A battle without soul power consumption—such an ability was utterly terrifying.
On the Yun family platform, Yun Menghai stared at Lin Qian in disbelief. Where did these strange items and this mysterious place come from?
But his expression soon turned pale, as he watched Lin Qian crush two more crystals and then saw two more materialize in his hands.
"How… how many of those things does he have?"
