The core was the most crucial point for cultivators. Once someone advanced to Golden Core Stage, they would condense their dantian to form a core. That core was the source of their entire body and cultivation.
If their core was damaged, they would not be able to advance further in their stages.
Worse, they might even lose their cultivation on the spot and become complete trash that would not have any place in this world anymore. Trashes received the worst possible treatment.
The lean man knew that his career would be over.
"You…!"
Lin Xiao noticed that the lean man started to initiate his own core. Now that he had lost, what he wanted the most was mutual destruction!
'Lin Xiao, stop him! You won't be able to face Golden Core Stage Cultivator's core destruction.'
It was the most fatal move that could only be done by Golden Core Stage or above. Below them, it was hard to even cause damage even if a cultivator were to destroy their own dantian as it would not give much effect.
But Golden Core Stage cultivator was ultimately different.
The destruction they caused was even more than enough to destroy the entire city.
'How?'
'Stab it with your sword, destroy it and I can then absorb the Qi as long as your sword is connected.'
Swish!
Appearing behind the lean man, Lin Xiao stabbed his sword. The lean man was completely covered in fire right now and just staying near him caused the heat to seep deep into Lin Xiao's body.
Lin Xiao paid no heed as he stabbed his sword right in the dantian area.
"You…" The lean man was about to grab Lin Xiao but at this time, Lin Xiao had already shifted to the side and stabbed him once more.
Stab!
The sword once more pierced through the dantian, crushing it.
Lin Xiao's eyes were cold. 'Lin Hu, you can absorb Qi from other people's dantian?'
'As a matter of fact, all dragons can but you won't be able to use this Qi.' Lin Hu scoffed. The Qi was of fire element, the complete opposite of Lin Xiao. There was no way Lin Xiao would be able to use this Qi for himself.
Lin Xiao didn't care as long as he could stay alive.
'But you really can.'
'I won't do so unless it's emergency. Also, this can only be done when the other party is initiating their own core for destruction because at that time, there won't be any restriction for me.'
"You…!" The lean man roared as his flames grew more intense, burning the entire arena along with him.
Lin Xiao was still staying with his sword pierced deep into the lean man's body. His eyes were cold as he watched the lean man did his wonder.
"This…" Princess Lan Yi Hua was scared out of her wits when she saw what had happened at the stage. Her eyes turned red as she bit her lower lips in worry.

"He's still alive…" Prince Lin San was not in any better situation. If only they were not fighting in the arena, he would want to rush in and help his twin brother. But… could he even defeat the guards?
The guards were all at Golden Core Stage 2!
"What should I do?" Princess Lan Yi Hua also wished to rush in but with her speed, she still couldn't defeat Golden Core Stage 2. It would be futile if she wanted to help Lin Xiao and yet couldn't even get close.
Her heart was panicking right now.
Beside them, Xia Ye was also clenching his fist. He felt that he was really weak as he couldn't even help his Master. Right now, he could do nothing but to stay at the sidelines and watched as everything unfolded before his eyes.
It was frustrating.
He had to get stronger! He wanted to be stronger so that no one would be able to hurt those who were close to him ever again!
Prince Lin Yan had calm expression but his back was covered in sweat. He knew that Golden Core Stage 1 Cultivator had a chance to self destruct. This was why he always aimed to kill them in one move.
That way, they would not have the chance to even self destruct.
The man who bet with Prince Lin Yan clicked his tongue. "If both of them died, it'll be even."
"Heh." Prince Lin Yan sneered. "Don't think that you'll be able to make me pay for you, Old Man."
The man snorted. He was not that low to ask Prince Lin Yan for compensation when his man was not capable enough.
Still, to think that a mere Foundation Establishment brat was capable of making his own men surrender to this extent. It was very interesting.
Bang!
The flames suddenly died down and a body fell down with a loud thud. There was no explosion that was expected from the destruction of Golden Core Stage 1 Cultivator.
All that existed was only that wall of flame.
But it had also died down. And when they all saw the figure that was standing on the arena, they were all filled with disbelief.
Silence.
The crowd was staring at the arena with disbelief as if they were seeing miracles. Right now, they were thinking that they were dreaming.
There was a method to stop someone from destroying their own core and killed that cultivator first?
Really?
They have never heard of such method. But right now, in front of them was someone who did that.
On the arena, Lin Xiao was standing with his hand holding his sword. His clothes were burnt in variety of degree, making him looked like a beggar. Blood was dripping on his back but his eyes were still filled with coldness as he stared at the lean man's corpse before him.
The fight just now had challenged him to the very limit, making it hard for him to survive.
Thankfully, he was still alive.
