The Strongest System - Chapter 325
Chapter 325: Trouble From The Past
p>”Finally here.”
After several days, Lin Fan was standing atop a mountain peak, looking at the Xuanjian Sect in the distance.
The first time he caught sight of Xuanjian Sect, he was somewhat stumped. Xuanjian Sect was built on top of the surface of a gigantic long sword. This sword seemed to have descended from the skies, plunging onto the surface of the Earth at a 45-degree angle. This sword’s mighty size was astounding to behold.
A dense and thick Sword Will was being emitted from that sword.
Sharp. Honed.
Because of this, Xuanjian Sect was filled with vigor as well.
This was indeed a sight of a land from a fairy tale on Earth.
Looking at it, Lin Fan was feeling tinges of envy. It was a women’s sect indeed. They definitely knew how to enjoy life.
Thinking back on his own sect back at home, he could not help but sigh exasperatedly. How it paled in comparison!
Intimidating. Tender. Beautiful…All of these qualities were blended together in a perfect package.
Lin Fan presumed that the Grandmaster of Xuanjian Sect should be hundred plus years old right now; a granny caliber woman. If she were younger, Lin Fan might not have minded having a more intimate form of contact with her for future purposes.
Shaking his head at the thought, Lin Fan made his way down to collect what he came for.
…
“Hold up there. This is the Xuanjian Sect. No random outsiders are allowed here.” A pretty good looking girl stopped Lin Fan in his tracks.
This girl glared at Lin Fan with caution.
“Young girl, I’m not just any outsider. I’m here to discuss some matters with your Grandmaster.” Lin Fan had intended to break his way through inside. However, looking at the disciple with only the cultivation base of a precelestial middle level, Lin Fan could not bear to do it.
He was the strongest person within Glory Sect right now. He could not bring himself to commit such acts of bullying the weak…
And most importantly, his purpose here was to request for something. Things would get a little sticky if he injured anyone.
“Insolent! Who are you?” Looking at the man before her being so brash, the girl called out angrily while pulling out her long sword.
Lin Fan shook his head. Ignoring her, he walked straight through ahead.
“Hold up…!” Looking at how the other party disregarded her, the girl rushed at him in anger.
“D-despicable man! If you dare to continue forth, don’t blame me for being rough!” This girl had been in the sect for quite some time, but this was the first time she had met with something like this.
Even though Xuanjian Sect was not any major sect, nobody would come around to create trouble usually. Therefore, the girl was at a loss towards her next course of action.
Lin Fan did not reply her and continued walking forth quietly.
At the same time, he grumbled in his heart. ‘Why did all these sects have to make the barrier of entry into the sects so damn bloody high!’
“Despicable man! Take my sword!” To think that this man would totally ignore her warnings. The girl was so enraged that she pierced in the direction of Lin Fan’s arm.
‘Clang…!’
“How could this be?” Looking at her long sword which had shattered into pieces, the girl’s eyes turned red as she stood rooted where she was in shock.
“M-my sword…!” After a long time in the sect, this girl had finally built up some contributions to the sect and exchanged them for this longsword she had set her sights on for a really long time now. But to think that it would be broken in just a few days’ time!
Looking at this girl who was bawling on the spot, Lin Fan could not help but shake his head. He picked up the shards on the floor and began smelting them for a bit.
A long sword with an intimidating aura was pierced into the ground.
“Alright. This is your compensation. I have something to discuss with your Grandmaster.” Lin Fan did not want to ask anything from her and just made his way forward.
The girl who was wailing her eyes out looked at the longsword pierced into the ground in shock. She then moved forth and touched it.
Light Grade Middle Weapon…!
“Thank you, Senior!” The disciple instantly knew that the man before her was a Senior. To think that he could craft a graded weapon with just mere shards! What horrifying strength he had!
Lin Fan couldn’t be bothered with anything else other than a legendary weapon.
From time to time when he was bored, he would try his hand at crafting random stuff again in hopes of obtaining yet another legendary weapon. But reality was cruel. He got jacksht.
…
Along the way, Lin Fan attracted the gazes of many female disciples. After all, it was strange for a male to suddenly appear here. Some of the disciples ran off secretly to inform the Elders of the sect of this man’s presence.
Reaching the top of the sword where the top of the sect was, Lin Fan let out a grin.
There were already people from Xuanjian Sect awaiting him there.
“Who is this sir here? What do you seek here at Xuanjian Sect?” The person who spoke was a normal Elder of the sect.
“Lin Fan from Glory Sect requests an audience with your Grandmaster.” Lin Fan disregarded her question and declare his identity. Even though his voice wasn’t extremely loud, it permeated the entire Xuanjian Sect.
Within the Grandmaster’s Hall…
The Grandmaster of Xuanjian Sect was in the midst of a discussion with some of the Senior Elders of the sect. Upon hearing this voice, she was shocked. Exchanging glances with the other Senior Elders, she rushed out immediately.
Things outside were a little tense. Lin Fan’s calm demeanor had led the Elder who spoke to him to be in a fit of anger.
No one had dared to be so impertinent in the few thousand years of Xuanjian Sect’s history.
Regarding Glory Sect, she naturally knew about them. But no matter how she looked, Lin Fan did not resemble someone who would be from that sect.
“Take down this man!” The elder ordered in extreme displeasure.
…
“Stop!”
Those people who were surrounding Lin Fan right now turned around upon hearing this voice to their utter shocks.
“Greetings, Grandmaster!”
“Senior Elder…!”
Following behind the Grandmaster, Xuan Yunxian’s beautiful eyes found themselves looking at Lin Fan who was standing there. Her face changed into a look of disbelief.
She had not expected that it was him!
The scene back in Fiery Hell flashed through her mind once more.
He didn’t die! Yes! That was great!
But…why was he here?
Could it be that he was here for her?
Xuan Yunxian started fantasizing in her mind right now. Those last words of this man to her on that fateful day were still etched deeply in her heart.
She would feel that same numb stinging feeling in her heart daily, secretly hoping that this man could still be alive. But she told herself that it was impossible.
After all, that sea of flames in the Fiery Hell was something that even she could not have escaped from.
But to find this man standing before her once more, Xuan Yunxian’s heart which was gradually beginning to find peace was once again crashing like the raging seas.
Just as Lin Fan was about to speak his mind, his heart skipped a beat. He had discovered a gaze locking onto him. And when he saw who the owner of that gaze was, his balls felt a sting as well.
‘Holy fck. Shit! This is a problem!’ Lin Fan exclaimed in his heart as he recalled what happened in the Fiery Hell once more.
Unable to control his itch to act, he had put on a big show and had even made a heartfelt confession at the end of it.
But from this gaze, Lin Fan was certain that this person definitely remembered his words. And also, she seemed to have been truly moved by him!
Steady…He needed to keep steady now!
Lin Fan warned himself to stay calm and continued.
“Grandmaster Xuan, I am Lin Fan from Glory Sect. I seek a favor from you.”
Chapter 326: Lin Fan’s Love Story
p>Looking at the young man before her, Grandmaster Xuan was a little bewildered. No matter how she looked at it, she could not sense any form of aura nor make out his cultivation state. Yet, he gave off an air of superiority.
The thought of him being a mere commoner had not crossed her mind. That left only a single possibility: the man before her must be really strong.
Just as Grandmaster Xuan was about to speak up, she was beaten to the chase by Xuan Yunxian who was beside her.
“Is it truly you?” A look of anticipation took over Xuan Yunxian’s beautiful face. The moment Xuan Yunxian spoke up, everyone from Xuanjian Sect was stunned as well.
Was Xuan Yunxian acquainted with this man?
Lin Fan was equally stumped as well. Just what sort of scenario was this leading towards?!?
He had thought up of all sorts of possibilities, but definitely not something like this!
Even if Xuan Yunxian recognized him, she would not call him out on it right in front of her Grandmaster, right? She would have definitely waited for the night to come where no one was around and snuck her way into his room to ask him about it!
But now…this was practically holding him at a knifepoint! It was as though she wouldn’t let this thing go unless he clarified things right here and now!
“Yunxian, do you know him?” Grandmaster Xuan asked by the side.
But Xuan Yunxian could not even take in her Grandmaster’s words right now. She just continued with her question once more.
“Is it truly you?” Her heart was flustered right now. She could not really believe this and was waiting for his response.
Lin Fan stood there without budging a single inch or replying to the question. He was really stumped by this question.
He truly had not considered this option.
Looking at the anxious look on Xuan Yunxian’s face, Lin Fan wished he could give himself a tight slap in the face right now.
Bloody hell! Why did he have to be itchy to put on an act back then! Now, he had brought about this whole mess right on himself.
Thinking back, he could recall the very words he told her back then.
‘To be able to pass on the hope of living to a beauty like you is an honor of mine. Ever since I first caught sight of you, I was captivated by your grace. I hope that you do not forget about me ever…’
‘Do not speak any further. To be able to just stare at you like this before I die is a lavish demand to the Heavens. Farewell.’
Thinking back to these two sentences, Lin Fan was totally about to cry right now. Lavish demand your mother, you stupid Lin Fan!
Back then, he felt so damn good after putting on that act. But right now, he just felt like an absolute fool. The trouble was real big right now.
He was especially careful with his facial expressions back then. He was so certain that his act would have been able to touch even the coldest of hearts.
But little did he know how deep of an impact these words had on Xuan Yunxian.
Having spent her entire life in Xuanjian Sect, Xuan Yunxian did not have any form of interactions with any strangers of the opposite gender. Even though she was an old virgin at the age of 30, her heart was still filled with teenage fantasies like that of a little girl.
These words were like seeds that were planted in the heart of Xuan Yunxian, blooming as time went by. Every night, she would stare at the moon and fall deep into her thoughts.
Because of that, her disposition had mellowed down much more from the past as well.
At this point, Grandmaster Xuan and the other Senior Elders looked at one another in the eyes. Something seemed to be wrong.
As for the disciples that were surrounding Lin Fan right now, their faces were frozen in shock as well. They could sense the deep longing within that sentence…
As they looked at one another in the eyes, a single thought crossed their minds.
Could Elder Xuan Yunxian have some sort of relationship with this man…?!?
Thinking back at Elder Xuan Yunxian’s usually cold and haughty look on her face, it was hard to believe that any man would be able to capture her heart.
Right now, Lin Fan was feeling uncomfortable. Extremely uncomfortable. This feeling was too damn repressing!
Before he had transmigrated to this world, Lin Fan was a young and innocent virgin boy. Even though he had studied through countless AV films, his inner heart was as pure as a piece of white paper.
To a man with that much research, women were just the fairer sex in his eyes.
But the main reason for that was because he had yet to experience a woman who had revealed such deep emotions to himself.
And that single sentence filled with deep emotions of Xuan Yunxian was causing Lin Fan to feel really unnerved. No matter how strong he was in terms of cultivation base, he was at a loss for actions right now.
“Is it truly you?” Xuan Yunxian took a step forward. Her peerlessly flawless face could not wait to obtain an answer from him.
Lin Fan retreated backward accordingly, his eyes darting left and right as though he was trying to avoid being devoured by Xuan Yunxian’s passionate eyes.
Yes or no?
Lin Fan wanted to deny that question. But when he saw Xuan Yunxian’s look of longing, he hesitated.
‘Bloody hell, Lin Fan! What are you afraid of? Even if you acknowledge it, so what? It’s not as though she’s going to devour you whole, right?’
“Hi, long time no see.” After taking in a deep breath, Lin Fan finally forced out a smile on his face, trying his best to regain his usual self. Raising his hand, he waved hi to her as a reply.
But just then, not even in his wildest dreams…
A fragrant aroma swept into his nose.
A shadow had leaped into his embrace.
“I knew it! I knew it was you! How could you die, right…?” Xuan Yunxian had pounced into Lin Fan’s arms with a weeping tone.
Lin Fan truly wanted to weep as well. What the hell was going on right now?
That day…that day! Hadn’t he just said a few extra words because of his itchy mouth?
But Yours Truly hadn’t done anything to you…!
Lin Fan was utterly flabbergasted right now. His awkward hands in midair had no place to rest on anymore.
He truly did not know what to do at this moment.
Everything came so suddenly that he wasn’t even in the least bit prepared.
Grandmaster Xuan stumbled backward aghast. Her face was filled with disbelief.
All the other Senior Elders were equally shocked. Xuan Yunxian had always been groomed and seen as the next successor to the sect. But now that something like this was happening, what were they to do?
Amongst the disciples who witnessed this, some of them were touched. The others were in equal shock as their Grandmaster and the others.
How could an elder of Xuanjian Sect behave as such…!
A disciple suddenly ran off into the distance.
Recently, Liu Linfeng had been feeling a sore ache in his heart. Seated in front of his mirror, he was fiddling with his fingers and caressing his cheeks gently.
Even looking at the rouge on his makeup table, he didn’t have the slightest bit of interest.
It was too lonely…
He was missing someone.
BAM!
Suddenly, his door was slammed open. Liu Linfeng’s face turned into one of displeasure immediately. How were disciples these days so rude? He had to teach them a good lesson definitely.
“Senior Brother Liu! This is not good! Your master is in an embrace with someone outside of the Main Hall!” The female disciple exclaimed anxiously.
“The fck…!” Liu Linfeng’s voice was sharp. Upon hearing this, he stood up in an angry huff. “Are you certain of what you said?”
“That’s right! They’re still there!” The female disciple replied hurriedly.
Suddenly, Liu Linfeng’s eyes flashed with a murderous intent. Just which bstard was it who dared to vie for his master’s attention?
…
Chapter 327: Daddy…!
p>Mother of sweet chickens…!
Lin Fan did not want to say anything anymore. What could he do now? He couldn’t just push her away, neither could he allow her to continue hugging like this!
If he pushed her away, that would be akin to him telling everyone that he was just making a fool out of her, and for her to not take it to heart.
But that didn’t sound right the more he thought about it. How heartbreaking would that be?
‘Forget it. Yours Truly’s body, she can hug as much as she wants to then. It isn’t worth much money anyways.’
But wow, wasn’t Xuan Yunxian plentiful to the max? Lin Fan had not noticed carefully from the start. But the moment she started pressing her body against his, he could clearly feel 2 tender and soft mounds pressing against his chest.
Just then, Xuan Yunxian leaned her head on Lin Fan’s shoulders and asked tenderly, “Won’t you hug me too?”
The moment he heard this, Lin Fan’s body shuddered momentarily. ‘T-this woman’s request is…is too much!’
“This…What sort of sinful act is this?” Looking at this outrageous scene before her, Grandmaster Xuan was filled with anger.
She had to bring a break to all of this! Xuan Yunxian was the disciple she had painstakingly groomed to be the next Grandmaster! How could she be flirting around with a man right here?!
No matter what, even if Yunxian would hold a grudge against her, she had to do it!
“Grandmaster, do not get angry. I’ve already had a disciple go and fetch that kid, Liu Linfeng. As long as he doesn’t agree to this, I’m sure Yunxian would spare a thought for him.” One of the Senior Elders said.
“Seems like that’s the only way.” Grandmaster Xuan nodded her head, placing all her hope on that kid, Liu Linfeng.
She knew that Xuan Yunxian had an extremely close relationship with Liu Linfeng. This kid had been brought up since she was a child by Yunxian, and he had always regarded her as a mother. If Linfeng disagreed to this, Yunxian would definitely spare a thought for him. They would then sit down for a good talk, and hopefully be able to change Yunxian’s current thoughts.
…
“Senior Brother, just in front!”
“Yes. I have to see just what sort of bstard would dare to dirty my master!” Liu Linfeng was enraged right now. To him, no other man in this world was more befitting for his master than himself.
Even if there were any man, it could only perhaps be that man who had whipped him into shape.
But to this day, that man had abandoned him, and Liu Linfeng had no idea where that man had disappeared.
“Senior Brother, take a look! It’s that man!” The female disciple pointed ahead.
Looking at the crowd of people, Liu Linfeng wanted to pull out his blade and slice this man cleanly into 2. But just as he caught sight of the man’s face, he was stumped.
“Grandmaster! Look! Linfeng that kid is here, and he looks as though he’s ready to pick a fight with that person!” One of the Senior Elders remarked.
“Yes. What a kid, Linfeng, what a kid! Seems like we haven’t wasted our efforts doting on him.” Grandmaster Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. Seemed like there was still a strand of hope.
“Yunxian is very bothered about the emotions of this kid, Linfeng. As long as this kid objects, everything will be fine.” Another Senior Elder replied.
“Seems like you made the right decision in allowing Yunxian to adopt this kid all those years ago, Grandmaster. To think that he would come in useful right at this moment.”
“Alright, it’s all up to this kid, Linfeng now!” Grandmaster Xuan’s face finally let loose a smile after everything.
“Daddy…!”
Liu Linfeng, on whom everyone had placed their hopes, rushed towards Lin Fan with an excited look. Along the way, he was so rushed that he even landed on his knees and was practically gliding towards Lin Fan, in front of the dumbfounded looks of everyone watching.
“Daddy…!!!” The moment Liu Linfeng arrived by Lin Fan, he hugged Lin Fan’s thighs tightly in tears. Those tears flowed down from his eyes, as if they were free like tap water.
And just then, the entire world fell silent.
Grandmaster Xuan’s jaws dropped apart. Just what the fck was this?
All the Senior Elders were so shocked they could not stop trembling.
All the disciples were rooted frozen solid on the spot.
What the fck? Could someone explain everything to them?!?
Wasn’t it agreed upon that Liu Linfeng would object this?!? Why was he so emotional upon meeting this man then? In fact, even calling him daddy?!?!
Grandmaster Xuan could not figure out for the sake of her life. The indignance was swelling so badly in her heart that she could just die of a heart attack right now.
In fact, some of the disciples with fertile imaginations were even coming up with horrifying faces. Could Liu Linfeng be the bstard child of this man and their Elder Xuan Yunxian?!?
Otherwise, why would she have fought so hard back then for their Grandmaster to take in Liu Linfeng?
But, what was even scarier was when they thought of Liu Linfeng’s age!
Did Elder Xuan Yunxian give birth at the tender age of 14?!?
If only Lin Fan knew what these girls were thinking right now, he would definitely puke out all his blood and die of blood loss.
…
But the people from Xuanjian Sect were not the only ones in shock. No one was in greater shock than Lin Fan himself.
Holy fck…! How was there even a son right now?!?
And looking at the person hugging his thighs, he recognized this person immediately. Wasn’t this the sissy he had tied up and whipped back then?!?
“Oi! Oi! Stop calling me anyhow as you like! Since when was I your Daddy?” Lin Fan was about to let loose his flood of tears right now. Why couldn’t anything be normal?!?
What sort of sins had he been committing to always bump into things like these?!?
“No! You’re my Daddy! I’ve always viewed master as my mum! Now that you’re with my master, you’re my Daddy!” Liu Linfeng refused to let loose of Lin Fan’s thighs.
“Master, do you think he’s my Daddy?”
Listening to her dear disciple’s words, Xuan Yunxian’s face flushed red. In the end, she nodded shyly.
“See, Daddy! Master nodded her head too!”
He was reminiscing about the event from before right now.
Because he was disobedient, he was dragged into the woods and given a good whipping by Daddy. That feeling was something he could never forget.
Even until now, he was craving for Daddy’s whippings of love…
…
If Lin Fan knew what was going on in Liu Linfeng’s head right now, he would definitely puke out all his blood and die all over again.
Based on his knowledge of ‘Trainer’, he thought that he could only have the other party be submissive towards him. To think that he would totally train up the mindset of the other party as well.
No matter the skill, as long as it underwent strengthening by the system, it would no longer be the skill it once was.
And since Lin Fan had not taken the time to really look through the system, naturally he did not know about this.
And right now, Xuanjian Sect was experiencing it’s most heartbreaking scene over a few thousand years.
It was also at this point that Lin Fan realized that he fcked up by coming to Xuanjian Sect.
“Let go first.” Lin Fan said to Liu Linfeng. He felt like he needed to have a good talk with these people.
Wasn’t he here just for the Supreme Being’s Token Shard?!? Was there a need for all of these? If he were someone with a weaker heart, he would have long died of shock by the scene before him.
“No, Daddy! I won’t let go!”
“Let go.”
“No, Daddy!”
“Let loose.”
“No, Daddy!”
…
“Let loose of Daddy’s leg!” Lin Fan was about to explode right now. His entire viewpoint of life had crumbled down to the core. Yours Truly was still a virgin! How could he have gained a kid so big so soon!
“Yes, Daddy!” The moment Liu Linfeng heard this, he let loose of Lin Fan’s leg and stood at the side happily.
“Yunxian, please let loose first. We’ll slowly hug more in the future.” Lin Fan had to diffuse this situation right now first. Otherwise, there was no way he would be leaving her today.
“It’s okay if you call me Xian Er…” Xuan Yunxian replied tenderly.
Lin Fan took a deep breath to soothe his flustering heart. He would rather have yet another duel with the Eternal Donger than face this situation ever again.
“Alright, Xian Er, please let loose first…” Lin Fan was extremely helpless right now. But so what if he was? This was all caused by his moment of acting.
And Lin Fan truly understood.
Bullshiting had its consequences. One ought to tread with care.
“To think that this day would come. My eyes are really peeled wide open to be able to witness such a scene! HAHAHA!”
Suddenly, someone ripped through the void above Xuanjian Sect. A few shadows stood and laughed maniacally at the sight below…
….
Chapter 328: Turn Into Dust
p>In the sky, five shadows were floating in the air right now. These five men were clad in robes of different colors. Each of them had a word embossed on their chest area.
Metal. Wood. Water. Fire. Earth.
The five elements?
These five people seemed to be linked with one another in one way or another. Even though their aura right now was meek, they seemed to hold in way more than this.
“HAHA! To think that the next Grandmaster of Xuanjian Sect would be in love with a man. What a sight!”
“And they both bore a sissy son as well! This is a scandal worthy of Xuanjian Sect’s thousands of years of history indeed!”
…
These five people seemed to keep no one in their eyes. Insults rained one upon another, as they tore down the image of Xuanjian Sect without any fear of repercussions.
The presence of these unknown enemies caused Xuanjian Sect to be on high alert. Xuan Yunxian’s forlorn face regained its usual cold demeanor as she looked at the five people in the skies.
However, each time her eyes made contact with Lin Fan, they were lovesick once more. This sent Lin Fan on a massive guilt trip. Did she really think he was the one?
“May I know who you guys are? What is your purpose here at Xuanjian Sect?” Looking at the 5 men in the skies, Grandmaster Xuan was filled with unease. None of these people seemed weaker than her from their aura. In fact, they gave off a really threatening feeling.
She could not remember any sect within the entire Dongling Continent that had clothing similar to theirs. Just what sect did they hail from?
Just then, the man with the word ‘Metal’ spoke up, “You’re not worthy of knowing who we are. The only thing you need to know is that we’re here for one thing.”
These people were not here with friendly intents.
Grandmaster Xuan cast a look at her fellow Senior Elders.
“What thing?” She then asked in a solemn voice.
“The core of Xuanjian Sect.” The Metal man replied coldly.
“Impossible…!” Grandmaster Xuan’s face changed and she rejected this immediately.
This gigantic sword right here was the core of Xuanjian Sect. Taking away this sword was as good as destroying Xuanjian Sect entirely. Something like this was impossible for them to accept.
“Oh? You don’t have the right to decide whether it’s possible or not.” The Metal man snorted coldly. “You guys have one incense’s time to leave this place, or you shall lay down your lives here as well.”
Suddenly, the ground they were standing on shook. The gigantic sword vibrated momentarily, and numerous Sword Wills shot out from it, encompassing the entire Xuanjian Sect.
“Hmph. Know your place. You guys think you can stop us with this mere Heaven’s Energy Sword Formation? The dreams that fools make indeed. You guys only have one incense’s worth of time. Once the time is up, all of you shall stay right here forever.”
The moment they finished this sentence, all five of them floated in the air without budging a single inch. Those cold eyes looked down with looks of joy, as if this was all was a game to them.
In their eyes, just a mere Xuanjian Sect was nothing for them to fear.
As for Xuanjian Sect, everyone was in a frenzy right now. They had no idea who these people who just popped out of nowhere were.
Lin Fan looked into the skies and was filled with questions as well.
These five were greater celestial full cultivation beings with 12 energy grid line chains to their belts. However, when the five of them stood together, their strength was far greater than that of just 12 energy grid line chains. Seemed like there must be some secret to their formation.
“Grandmaster, where did all these people come from? How about we get away to discuss for a moment.” One of the Senior Elders shouted out urgently.
Grandmaster Xuan’s face was grim. All five of their cultivation bases were higher than hers. And they only gave her time for a single incense to burn. How was that even enough?
As the Grandmaster and the others were discussing, a thought was forming in Lin Fan’s mind.
Perhaps, he could strike a deal with Grandmaster Xuan and the others.
Xuan Yunxian came before Lin Fan with a look of reluctance and said, “Please, bring Linfeng away with you.”
Xuan Yunxian was now a greater celestial lower level with a single energy grid line chain to her belt. Even though those people in the sky were keeping their aura to themselves for the most part, she could make out the terrifying power behind them.
She was certain that a big fight was about to break out. By then, she would have no spare attention to take care of them.
“Master, I will not leave.” Liu Linfeng replied.
Even though he was a sissy, when the time came to it, he was definitely loyal towards the sect.
“Listen to master and leave first. You can come back after the entire thing blows over.”
“No…!” Liu Linfeng shook his head furiously before turning to Lin Fan, “Daddy, please leave first!”
The moment Lin Fan heard the words Daddy, he cringed from head to toe. It was as if the word had a magical effect in Liu Linfeng’s mouth, which caused one to shudder uncontrollably.
Lin Fan did not reply to them. Instead, he came forth to the strategizing Grandmaster Xuan.
“Grandmaster Xuan, I’d like to make a deal. As long as you give me this item, I’ll help you kill all five of them.” Lin Fan took out a Supreme Being’s Token Shard.
Regarding this item, not many people within the sect knew about it.
Towards the battle back then, only sects with a history of tens of thousands of years would have some broken pieces of records and documentation about it. As for sects like these with only a few thousand years of history, they did not know about it at all. Therefore, the moment Lin Fan took it out, Grandmaster Xuan did not have much of a reaction.
“This thing…?” Grandmaster Xuan looked at the Supreme Being’s Token Shard, as if she was trying hard to recall about something.
This thing looked pretty familiar. Finally, she remembered.
“I have one such thing in my possession. It may be a treasure, but it is able to suck up a person’s True Energy indefinitely. Therefore, it must be an evil object.’
Evil object? Lin Fan was puzzled right now. Even though Grandmaster Xuan might know that it was an evil object, as a greater celestial full cultivation being, she should have enough True Energy for it to suck as compensation. Why would she think that it was an evil object if that were the case?
Could it be that the token shard that Grandmaster Xuan possessed was different, such that even the True Energy of a greater celestial full cultivation being was not enough to satiate it?
Rummaging through her storage sack, Grandmaster Xuan then took out a token shard.
“You can have this. Please take all of my disciples and leave this place together.” She replied.
“The five of them are at the greater celestial full cultivation state. I wonder how many energy grid line chains they have in their possession. Any average disciple who remains would sure be sent to their deaths. Yunxian, take all of our disciples and leave this place. If we fail the defense, search for another place to continue the legacy of our sect.” Grandmaster Xuan continued to pass down the orders.
“Master…” Before Yunxian could continue, she was cut short by Grandmaster Xuan, who then turned to Lin Fan, “Regarding the affairs between you and Yunxian, us old fogeys here are unable to stop it the way things are now. I can only hope that you do not let down Yunxian’s sincere feelings.”
Lin Fan was stumped once more. He was here for a deal, not to take in all these bunch of people like orphans!
“No, Grandmaster Xuan. You give me that object and I’ll destroy all five of them outside. It’s a fair and even deal.” Lin Fan tried to explain.
Suddenly, all five of them who were outside broke into a wild fit of laughter as they heard Lin Fan’s words.
“HAHA! That’s the world’s biggest joke ever! That kid claims that he can take down all five of us!”
“Metal, why don’t we strike now? What are we still wasting time for?”
“That’s right! The Lord is still waiting for us!”
…
Grandmaster Xuan shook her head and handed the token shard over to Lin Fan, “Please take Yunxian and leave with the others.”
“Yunxian, listen to your master. Take the disciples and leave.”
Lin Fan sighed. No matter what he said, none of them would believe him.
Just then, the Heaven’s Energy Sword Formation began to shake. The five of them had begun their attacks.
“Hmph. I’ve given all of you the time of a single incense. Since you do not know how to cherish this, then all of you shall stay!”
“Take this down!”
Suddenly, the Metal man roared as a golden light filled with immense energy struck at the Heaven’s Energy Sword Formation.
BAM!
Instantly, the formation shattered, unable to even withstand a single blow.
Grandmaster Xuan and the others were petrified. To think that such a mighty sword formation would be destroyed just like that! How could that be!
“Hmph…!” All five of them snorted coldly as the void started trembling.
“Hurry up and leave! We’ll defend this…!” Grandmaster Xuan and the other Senior Elders rushed forth, a grim look on their faces.
Just a single strike was all it took to take down the formation! That wasn’t a power that they could hope to defend against. But even if they had to sacrifice down to their very last breath, they had to ensure that Yunxian could get the other disciples out safely!
“Alright, the deal is done. Time for me to fulfill my end.” Placing the token shard into his bag, Lin Fan could not help but be pleased with his luck. Just like that, he had three pieces now. It shouldn’t be long before he collected all of them.
Grandmaster Xuan and the others were utterly shocked, wondering what this man was up to. Could he not tell how strong those five people were?!?
Yunxian looked at Lin Fan with utmost worry as well.
Lin Fan’s hair were floating gently in the wind as he raised his head up at the five men in the skies. While grinning, he used his hand to beckon at them and taunt them.
“How dare you…?” All 5 of them echoed in unison. They had not expected this lad to dare to provoke them! They would be sure to let him know the true meaning of horror!
“What are you doing! You’re not their match!” Grandmaster Xuan shouted in shock.
Totally ignoring Grandmaster Xuan’s words, Lin Fan stood there, disregarding any form of danger.
He then said casually.
“A single palm strike and all of you shall turn into dust.”
“C-crazy! The kid’s insane!” Grandmaster Xuan yelled.
“Lad…! Go and die!” Suddenly, the Metal man dashed down from the skies. With the power of the Metal energy coiled around his arm, he rained down a punch onto Lin Fan.
And just as the Metal man was prepared to smite down Lin Fan, something astonishing happened.
The Metal man’s facial expression changed. He could feel an opposing force that was causing his heart to flutter. In fact, the force seemed to be unstoppable!
I-impossible! This was definitely impossible!
BAM!
And just like that, a bright ray of light covered the entire skies followed by a really loud boom.
Nobody could tell what was happening right now…
Chapter 329: Take Your Time, I’ll Be Waiting
p>That beam of light gradually dissipated. But the aura was enough to have everyone from Xuanjian Sect shocked beyond words.
“Eh?”
A gasp of shock came out from Lin Fan’s mouth. To think that the Metal man had escaped from the grasp of his palms! That was strange?
“This secret art of you five people is pretty interesting indeed. To think that you can manipulate your positioning as well.” Lin Fan chuckled while raising his head into the skies, forming a slight interest towards their fascinating skill.
As for the Metal man, his right arm had disappeared entirely. In its place was a mess of blood and flesh, as a large amount of blood was gushing out from him, raining down onto the ground as well.
Grandmaster Xuan and the other Senior Elders were aghast at the scene in the skies. They then turned their heads towards this calm man who was standing at ease in disbelief.
So strong!!!
They had not expected this unassuming man to be this crazily strong! The Metal man’s aura was boundless and powerful. Evidently, he was someone far from ordinary. Even they themselves might not be his match. But to think that this man could disintegrate the Metal man’s entire arm with a single slap. What frightening strength!
Grandmaster Xuan stole a glance at Xuan Yunxian and her heart wavered. If these two were truly in love, then that might be a really good thing after all.
But if Lin Fan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely puke out a mouthful of old blood and tell her that she was overthinking things.
“Daddy, that’s so strong!” Suddenly, Liu Linfeng screamed. That sissy high pitched voice of his was especially piercing in this tense atmosphere.
The calm Lin Fan shuddered as he cringed at the word Daddy once more. He pretended to have heard nothing.
“You bstard…!” The Metal man in the skies roared in furious rage, but at the same time, he looked at this horrifying man with wariness.
If not for the fact that the five of them possessed that special skill which allowed them to communicate with each other mentally and sense for one another, his outcome might have been just like his arm, disintegrated into dust.
“Just who are you?” Even though the five of them kept a low profile in Dongling Continent, they knew practically everything that happened within it. Yet, they had not heard of anyone this strong existing within it.
Even though the five of them had only accumulated 12 energy grid line chains, if they worked together, even the Grandmaster of Glory Sect might have to retreat under their combined forces.
“You guys are too weak for me to waste my saliva on.” Just then, Lin Fan lifted himself off the ground and leaped into the skies.
Lin Fan was prepared to carry out a good research on them and smelt them down. If he were lucky, he might even be able to smelt out the skill that they were using.
Metal. Wood. Water. Fire. Earth.
These were the five elements.
Even though Lin Fan had browsed through the records in Glory Sect, he had not come across any indications of a skill of this type. Furthermore, the origins of these five people seemed pretty mysterious. But, none of this mattered to Lin Fan. No matter where they were from, they would still be beaten to a pulp.
All of their faces changed immediately. They had not expected this man to strike before even giving them time to react!
None of them dared to hesitate as they immediately split into their elements.
‘Wood Bone!’
‘Metal Veins!’
‘Earth Muscles!’
‘Water Blood!’
‘Fire Qi!’
‘The five elements of life! Fuse!’
And with that, a massive force erupted out of all of them.
12 energy grid line chains coiled around each of them as a beam of light covered over all five of them within.
“Bstard! Today, I’ll let you understand the true meaning of horror!” From the bright light, a terrifying voice rang out.
Grandmaster Xuan and the other Senior Elders could feel the horrifying power of this aura. They could not help but look at the man in the sky with worried eyes.
The aura that was emanating from that mass of light was simply too powerful! Just watching from a distance was enough to have their hearts fluttering.
Xuan Yunxian’s face revealed a look of concern as well. The aura had created waves of fear within her.
As for the other disciples, all of their faces were pale with fright, as if some sort of monster were about to emerge from the light.
Lin Fan just floated there casually without a single concern. The more he looked at this, the more curious he was beginning to feel.
BOOM!
Just then, the light disappeared, as a five colored giant stood before Lin Fan.
“Die…!” The five colored giant let out a roar and sent a punch flying to Lin Fan’s face.
“Careful…!” Looking at the development, Xuan Yunxian panicked.
Lin Fan was not really bothered by this devastating punch. He just raised his right hand gently and slapped back.
BAM!
A palm strike with boundless power flew towards the direction of the five colored giant.
“How could this be?”
The giant’s face changed into one of fear. The power of that palm strike was causing them to feel a repressed feeling in their hearts.
Everything was being destroyed in the face of that incoming palm strike.
BAM!
The five colored gigantic arm which sent out the punch was being ripped apart bit by bit without any room for resistance.
“Please have mercy.”
And just then, a voice boomed across the skies. This voice penetrated through the entire void with a fearsome aura that was almost impossible to refuse.
“Lord, please save us…!”
The five colored giant begged in a frenzy the moment they heard this voice, as if their savior had descended upon them.
They had not expected the man before them to be this strong!
The five of them had exerted every last bit of their strength to form this five colored giant. But even the giant’s arm was being ripped apart helplessly. Since when did Dongling Continent have such a powerful figure within it?!?
“No f*cking body is going to be able to save you guys!” Lin Fan hollered out in anger. Taking out the Eternal Axe, he swung down towards the skies.
“Insolent…!” The figure within the void boomed out once more. As if he were entirely riled, a beam of light shot down from the skies.
Upon closer inspection, it was a turtle shell! This turtle shell had some runes inscribed on it, and was emanating an ancient aura. It then found its place in front of the five colored giant’s head.
“‘This is the Lord’s Heavenly God Shield! We’re saved!” Looking at the item on its head, the five colored giant’s heart leaped with joy.
The Lord was an invincible existence in their eyes. As long as they had the Lord’s protection, everything will be fine!
But their happiness did not last. They discovered in shock that their Lord’s shield that they had been viewing as a protection charm was destroyed with a single touch of the palm strike.
“NOOOOOO…!”
BOOM!
Heavens and Earth shattered as the five colored giant disappeared instantly.
‘Ding…congratulations on killing greater celestial full cultivation being Metal.’
‘Ding…congratulations on killing greater celestial full cultivation being Wood.’
‘Ding…congratulations on killing greater celestial full cultivation being Water.’
…
‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining Heaven Graded Upper-Level Skill: ‘Five Elements’.’
‘Ding…congratulations on leveling up.’
‘Ding…Greater celestial lower level.’
‘Ding…Activating the function of Energy grid lines.’
…
Lin Fan was overwhelmed with glee. What luck he had! Not only did he level up, he had acquired that skill as well!
Lin Fan did not care about how angry that man within the void would have been. Flying straight to the spot where the five of them died, he tossed all of their bodies into his storage immediately.
When he had the time, he would smelt their bodies and see what he could get out of it.
At this point, every single person within Xuanjian Sect was utterly dumbfounded.
They had not expected these terrifying five men to be killed with a single slap…!
And when they looked at how calm Lin Fan looked, they were even more unnerved. Just how strong was this man?!?
“Hmph…!” Suddenly, the voice boomed out from the skies once again. This voice was filled with immense wrath.
The edge of the skies crackled with thunder as it looked extremely ominous. It was as if someone were about to approach from the distance by ripping through the void.
Experiencing this aura, all of the relieved looks on everyone from Xuanjian Sect disappeared once more.
This aura was way stronger and boundless than those five men combined.
Lin Fan raised his brow up into the skies with naught a concern.
“No hurries there. Take your time, I’ll be waiting here for you.” He scoffed.
Hearing Lin Fan’s bold words, everyone from Xuanjian Sect was stunned once more.
And just as Lin Fan gently floated down to the ground, someone cheered for him excitedly.
“Bravo, Daddy! Bravo! You’re the best!”
Lin Fan decided to just keep pretending to ignore him. If he really took in this sissy boy as his kid, then this would definitely be a black stain on his impeccable life of being a champion of the world…
Chapter 330: Attacking Straight Up
p>Against this aura that could arrive at any moment, everyone from Xuanjian Sect was tense and concerned. They were no longer just fearful of this aura, they were downright panicking.
This was horrifying beyond words.
But to Lin Fan, even though this aura seemed strong, he still felt that it was manageable. After all, what should he be afraid of with the Eternal Arm?
And if he really pushed Yours Truly to the limits, Yours Truly could also take out the Eternal Donger to kill off this bugger with a good ‘Facial Shot’.
The only thing that made Lin Fan unnerved right now was Xuan Yunxian standing by his side consistently. He could feel that gaze of hers locking onto him constantly.
“Cough, cough. There may be a great battle later. You need to take care of yourself first.” Lin Fan’s meaning was in fact: Your gaze is causing Yours Truly to feel really awkward. How about you stand on one side first?
But to Xuan Yunxian, the meaning was totally distorted.
“Yes.” Her voice was as soft as a mosquito’s.
Xuan Yunxian could feel an immense amount of care from that single sentence. Was he afraid that she would come into danger?
Lin Fan snuck in a glance secretly and sighed helplessly. Seemed like Xuan Yunxian had misunderstood him once more.
This was a matter which was causing him endless headaches.
While others required all sorts of tricks and tactics to attract a chick, all Yours Truly did was put on an act of bullsht!
Lin Fan stared at the distant sky. Even though the aura was strong, there was still some time before it would reach him. Seemed like he was coming at a real slow speed indeed.
Lin Fan tossed the five bodies into the Heaven and Earth Smelt and started smelting.
‘Ding…congratulations on smelting success.’
‘Ding…obtained 60 energy grid line chains.’
‘Ding…obtained Pseudo five Spirits: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth.’
The moment Lin Fan heard this, he was puzzled. What in the world was Pseudo Five Spirits?
‘Pseudo Five Spirits: Created by man by gathering goblin spirits from different places. These are not spirits made by nature. Prerequisite for mastering ‘Five Elements’.’
Oh! Seemed like these Pseudo Five Spirits were just normal stuff and nothing good. If they were innate spirits, Lin Fan might not have minded fusing them into his own body.
Seemed like he should wait a bit before trying out this ‘Five Elements’.
Right now, Lin Fan had Seventy five energy grid line chains in his possession. But he already had a rough idea how he was going to make use of them.
The moment he knew that the Beast Spirit World would begin their invasion of Xuanhuang World within the next three years, he had the intentions of powering up his strength level at an immense speed.
Even though he had the Eternal Arm right now, this was still an external source of help. It was hard to say whether this was enough for him to deal with that Ruler of the Beast Spirit World.
BOOM!
Suddenly, the void rippled. A horrifying gap appeared from the sky as a deadly aura descended down from the skies onto the ground.
“You have to take care of yourself!” Xuan Yunxian said in a worried tone.
Lin Fan nodded his head silently before looking up at the massive gap.
This was a grand entrance, intimidating as well.
He wondered what the guy truly looked like.
Within the gap, lightning flashed, as if that was the only thing on the other side of the world.
For someone to be able to create such a formidable impact, his cultivation state must definitely be at a greater celestial full cultivation level. The only question now was the number of energy grid line chains he possessed.
The Eternal Arm had a hundred energy grid line chains to it. With that, Lin Fan could already see how frightening an existence it was.
And since the Eternal Donger was even stronger, Lin Fan presumed that it must definitely have a full 120 energy grid line chains.
Actually, one could not tell how strong it truly was just by looking at that donger. But that was where one must not judge a book by its cover.
Glory Sect’s Grandmaster had already been in the greater celestial state for hundreds of years. But even then, he had only managed to accumulate tens of energy grid line chains.
And to think that the Eternal Arm was just a part of the entire body. Lin Fan did not dare to imagine just how frightening the full body would be if it were all fused together.
Therefore, even after obtaining the Eternal Arm, Lin Fan did not dare to think that he was invincible just yet. He knew that everything he would face from now on would definitely not be as easy as he thought.
The most important thing was to get himself stronger. Who knew if all these external powers would turn their back on him and backstab him one day. Therefore, no matter what, Lin Fan only depended on them with care and caution.
Just then, a shadow appeared in front of the gap with lightning crackling and rumbling within it.
That shadow stood there peacefully. Clad in long robes, one could not make out anything about its facial features. In fact, one couldn’t even tell of its gender.
BOOM!
And just then, an impossibly strong aura erupted out from that shadow. This aura disrupted the voids and skies around it as it gathered into a torrential force and gushed at Lin Fan and Xuanjian Sect.
Looking at the force that was incoming like a storm, everyone from Xuanjian Sect’s faces were pale with shock. They did not even have any power to resist this.
As the smell of death wrapped itself around everyone from Xuanjian Sect, the only question they had was whether they would die just like this.
“Don’t come here and spout all this nonsense. Come at me if you’ve got the guts.” Lin Fan shouted as he threw out a punch. The punch was incredibly powerful, causing the torrential force to dissipate into nothingness.
Looking at how the torrential force was destroyed by Lin Fan with a single punch, he seemed to be a little shaken. But this shaken reaction disappeared as quickly as it came by.
“You’re strong. But you’re foolish as well. You should not have killed them.” Travelling through the void, the shadow reappeared above the skies of Xuanjian Sect instantaneously.
Even through his voice, no one could make out whether this was a man or a woman. It was a gender-neutral voice. Those eyes under those long robes seemed to be giving off a really sharp gaze.
Looking at how Lin Fan destroyed that torrential force with a single punch, everyone from Xuanjian Sect’s heart skipped a beat. Eventually, they could only place all of their hopes with him.
“It’s none of your business who my Daddy wants to kill!” Suddenly, the person who adored and revered Lin Fan like no one else lashed out at the shadow in the skies.
“Linfeng, hush!” Xuan Yunxian’s face changed immediately as she dragged Liu Linfeng to one side.
This was not the time and place for them to make any noise. That figure in the skies gave off an extremely repressive aura, as if he could crush them with just a single finger.
“Hmph.” With a single cold snort, the figure sent out a sonic boom ripping across the void, as if he were determined to kill this kid who did not know his place.
The color drained out of Xuan Yunxian’s face.
But just at that moment, Lin Fan raised his hand and diffused the sonic boom.
“Don’t go overboard, or you won’t even know how you died later.” Lin Fan said in disdain. These were the type of people he hated the most, people who acted superior to everyone else.
‘Sure, you can act out all the bullsht you want… But if you want to act bullsht in front of Yours Truly, then you’re asking for it.’
The shadow no longer bothered with Liu Linfeng, and turned its head towards Grandmaster Xuan, “This gigantic sword was left behind by me. I am now going to take it back. Any problem?”
Everyone from Xuanjian Sect had been wondering about who this person was. But when they heard what the person just said, they looked at one another in shock.
“W-who are you?” Grandmaster Xuan asked in absolute disbelief.
She was the Grandmaster of Xuanjian Sword, so naturally, she knew about the secrets behind Xuanjian Sect.
“It doesn’t matter who I am. All I asked was, any problem?” The voice grew tenser, and the person’s power level seemed to increase as well.
Grandmaster Xuan was pale as a sheet as she stumbled yet another step back, not knowing what to do. She looked at the person in the sky and continued, “Do you have any proof to prove that this is yours?”
Suddenly, the person tossed a token down onto the hands of Grandmaster Xuan, “Do you recognize this token?”
Upon receiving the token, Grandmaster Xuan’s face changed even more terribly, “This…this…!”
She naturally recognized this token! It was inscribed in the sect’s secret records that back in the past when they were looking for a location to build the sect on, there were already people on this sword. However, that person ceded and allowed Xuanjian Sect to build their sect here.
Just as the person was leaving, the person tossed the Founder Ancestor a token, telling her that when they met this token once more, it would be the time to return the sword.
But she had not expected that it would be now!
Looking at the aghast look on the face of Grandmaster Xuan, Lin Fan garnered in his heart that the person was speaking the truth. But to Lin Fan, the truth could also easily be distorted in any way. If one were to live just by morals, how pitiful would that be?
“Quit your blabbering. I’ve now taken an interest in this sword. Do you have any objections?” Lin Fan stared straight at the person in the skies and demanded.
“How dare you…!” The person was evidently riled.
“Hmph. It’s survival of the fittest. Only the strong shall survive. Well, Yours Truly is telling you now that I’ve taken an interest in this sword. Even if it’s yours, I’m gonna snatch it over from your hands.” Suddenly, a massive aura erupted out from Lin Fan as well.
The cheap son, Liu Linfeng, was thoroughly bedazzled by this display of might as well.
“Hmph…!” The person snorted.
“Oh? You think that you’re the only person who knows how you to snort? Yours Truly can do it too! Hmph…hmph…HMPH!!!” Lin Fan snorted continuously in a taunting manner. ‘Who’s afraid of who? If he’s unhappy, he can come at Yours Truly for all he wishes.’
“You…!” The person’s aura was reaching a maximum point as the person’s robes danced around in the skies. And it was at this point that the face underneath the robe was finally unveiled.
Originally in a pretty decent mood, Lin Fan was completed petrified by who it was.
Heaven Queen…
Lin Fan could not pull his gaze away from this face. This was a face that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
This was one of the participants of Saint Devil Sect’s destruction. The Heaven Queen who he had bitten on the neck viciously.
It was her!
No one noticed the anger that was burning in Lin Fan’s eyes.
The domineering aura of the person in the sky came to a calm, “I do not wish to engage in battle with you. All I want is this gigantic sword…”
And everyone was shocked by the next scene.
‘YOU MOTHERFCKING HEAVEN QUEEN! YOURS TRULY WILL F*CKING KILL YOU!’
In a frenzy of rage, Lin Fan dashed up towards the Heaven Queen in the sky.
Chapter 331: Something Horrifying Has Happened
p>Grandmaster Xuan was at a loss for what to do, when she was stunned by Lin Fan who dashed up to attack the person without a second word.
Just what was going on? And who was this Heaven Queen that Lin Fan was talking about?
No matter what, they were just stunned right now. Everything that was happening right now wasn’t something they could control anymore. And even if they wanted to control, they had to have the capabilities to do so.
“Daddy! Good luck! Kill that darned person!” Liu Linfeng hopped on the spot and cheered Lin Fan without a single fear of death.
…
The person’s face turned frozen cold. A frosty expression spread through her beautiful face. The fact that this person struck just because they could not come to an agreement displeased her to no end. Even though she did not know who this Heaven Queen person the other party was talking about was, just his tone of speech alone was enough for her to want to kill him.
“DIE…!” Lin Fan roared in anger. With a single palm strike, a tear ripped through the voids as the devastating force locked itself onto the Heaven Queen.
Her beautiful face shifted as her eyes glinted brightly.
The energy around her curled without any wind. Stretching out her hand, all the surrounding True Energy of Heaven and Earth gushed towards her, as a massive aura erupted outwards, welcoming that oncoming palm strike.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
As these 2 massive forces clashed with one another, everyone from Xuanjian Sect struggled to maintain their balance. One by one, they collapsed onto the ground, sitting and staring at the sky in extreme fear.
To think that they couldn’t even withstand the aftershock of that impact.
“Hmph, trying to run? Stand still!” Looking at the Heaven Queen turning into a rainbow and streaking into the distance, Lin Fan snorted coldly before giving chase.
At the same time, he was caught in surprise by the power of the Heaven Queen. This was the first time anyone could receive a strike from the Eternal Arm.
After chasing for some time, the person came to a halt. Her eyes were filled with a frosty glare. The strength of this man before her was out of her expectations.
“You’ve been rude time and again, I shall kill you today.”
“Hmph, it’s not certain who will die just yet, you f*cking bitch. Today, Yours Truly shall let you know the true meaning of humiliation.” With a wrathful roar, Lin Fan leaped up into the skies with an explosive aura.
Eternal Axe on his left arm, his right arm was the Eternal Arm.
“Insolent…!”
This was the first time anyone had dared to be so impertinent in front of her. And, she already wanted to kill him after his rude insults time after time.
Suddenly, the surrounding air seemed to be extremely concentrated as one by one, energy grid line chains poured out from behind her. They ripped out through the voids. The sheer number of energy grid line chains was out of Lin Fan’s expectations, making him frown.
Just the energy grid line chains that appeared alone were forty. This was something that Dongling Continent had never seen before.
These forty energy grid line chains coiled around one another, as a massive force seemed to cover the entire Heaven and Earth.
“Die…!” Lin Fan rocketed towards her. His five fingers curled into a claw as he clawed towards the Heaven Queen. The Eternal Axe on his left arm was slicing through the layers of void as well. Lin Fan would not rest until he took this person down with his two-pronged attacks.
Looking at the intimidating aura being emitted by this person before her, a look of surprise flashed across her lovely face.
She had not expected such a person to exist within the Dongling Continent as well.
“Heavenly Screen…!”
With a crisp sound, the entire world seemed to have entered a state of glass. A gigantic web appeared before Lin Fan, as though it was bent on wrapping him within it.
This web was as tall as the Heavens itself, and was composed of energy grid lines.
“Do you think you can hold me in with these, Heaven Queen? How dare you destroy Saint Devil Sect! Today, I shall let you understand what true horror is!”
Instantly, Lin Fan’s aura expanded once more. Eternal Arm unleashed its strongest power, ready to rain down chaos on the entire world.
With a single swipe of his claw-like hand, the Heavenly Screen made up of energy grid lines was ripped apart instantaneously.
The person whom Lin Fan had mistaken as the Heaven Queen was equally flabbergasted at the scene before her. She no longer dared to hold back anything. Her robes fluttered in the air as her long hair flew out with the wind. That saintly yet elegant looking aura permeated the entire sky.
The moment Lin Fan saw this, he stopped for a moment, as though he was entranced by the aura as well. But he regained his composure instantly and began to strike down once more.
Opening her beautiful eyes, energy grid line chains appeared one by one and coiled above her head. All of her energy grid line chains came out full force to deflect this blow.
The clash of these two colossal blows once again seemed to be threatening to rip this entire world apart.
Even Xuanjian Sect, which was far in the distance now, could feel the impact of this clash.
They wondered what was happening over there. But at the moment, just the aftershock alone was enough to have them find it difficult to even breathe.
BOOM!
They could feel the entire ground trembling. Far in the distance, two beams of light shot up into the Heavens.
…
Lin Fan did not expect the strength of Heaven Queen to be so strong. But even then, this was it.
Crack.
With a single swipe of his claw-like hand, everything in the world was destroyed. She had not expected this man to be so crazily strong. Even her strongest move wasn’t enough to defend against him.
As for that congealed defense of energy grid line chains, they began shattering under Lin Fan’s strike.
“Let me see just what else you have!” Fury was burning in Lin Fan’s eyes. The Mythical Parasol Tree within him was working extremely hard right now, churning as it absorbed the True Energy of Heaven and Earth rapidly and gushed it out.
BAM!
The skies turned quiet.
Lin Fan gripped on tightly to the Heaven Queen’s throat and lifted the latter into the skies.
“You did not see this day coming, did you?” He laughed coldly.
The beautiful face of the person who was caught in submission by Lin Fan gleamed with shock. To think that this man was this strong! This…this was far from her expectations!
And just then, the man’s aura changed and she shuddered as well.
“An…cient…!”
As she felt this aura, those eyes of hers gave off a hint of franticness. That initial unrelenting expression of hers now changed into a look of struggle.
She had a lot of things she wanted to tell this man before her.
But just as that happened, something that she did not expect happened once more.
“Hmph. Even if I kill you right now, it’ll be too easy for someone like you. Even though you’re a woman, I must let you understand what utter humiliation is.” So what if she was a woman? Back when she destroyed Saint Devil Sect, did she treat his Junior Sisters there as human beings?
TEAR.
A long robe was thrown up into the skies.
A beautiful and flawless body was exposed to the skies.
Even though it was alluring beyond words, Lin Fan did not care at all.
She was utterly stumped at this moment. But just then, a stinging pain lashed out from her back. A numb feeling found itself in her heart.
She wanted to cry out, but she resisted it.
Lin Fan was holding onto the whip with his right hand, infusing it with the power of the Eternal Arm.
PSSSSSSCH!
The boundless power was traveling through the whip. With a single lash, a streak of blood appeared on her body.
The girl who Lin Fan viewed as the Heaven Queen collapsed onto the floor. She was red with rage as she used both hands to cover her top and bottom area. She did not expect this man to do something like this.
“I am not the Heaven Queen you’re talking about!” Her voice was crisp and clear, but one could feel the wrath in her tone.
Just as he was about to strike down once more, Lin Fan stopped and laughed coldly at these words. Even at this juncture, she still wanted to lie to him.
But suddenly, he realized something was amiss.
He realized something horrifying.
Looking carefully, something was wrong indeed.
Did this mean…
Lin Fan did not dare to think anymore.
Chapter 332: None Of Your Business
p>Their features looked similar indeed. In fact, they were practically identical.
But it was at this moment that Lin Fan realized that the person before him had an entirely different disposition compared to the Heaven Queen, just like Heaven and Earth.
One was cold and acted as though everything was within her control. The other was saintly and elegant with a dignified aura.
Suddenly, Lin Fan felt a frosty feeling rising from the bottom of his toes all the way up to his head.
Did he bloody whack the wrong person?!?
Well, that wouldn’t be an issue normally. Wasn’t it just a fight? And he didn’t cripple this person as well.
But right now, it was an entirely different situation.
He had wanted to thoroughly humiliate this person. Hence, he tore up her clothes into pieces. But…wasn’t this just wrong?
S-steady now! No matter what, he wasn’t someone who could just turn back on anything he had done. He definitely couldn’t falter now.
Even if he were to admit his wrongdoing now, so what? What was done was done!
“Yes, I’ve made a mistake indeed. Hurry up and wear your clothes. Now that you’re out nude in the open, that’s some really indecent exposure by the way.” Lin Fan stood there commenting without a single bit of shyness.
The woman whose clothes were torn apart by Lin Fan stood there with rage burning in her eyes. Wasn’t he the one who tore up her clothes?!?
But right now, she could only reply coldly, “Could you turn your head around.”
Lin Fan frowned, “What? Turn around for what? You’re nothing but air to me. A body is nothing but a vessel. I’ve seen tens of thousands of women bodies. Even though you’re pretty decent, you’re not at the stage where you can move my heart.
The moment Lin Fan decided to bullshit, the Heavens could move and the seas could dry up. No one in this world could match up to that.
Looking at Lin Fan, the women bit on her lips gently before eventually pulling out a long robe.
But the moment she let go of her hand, Lin Fan shuddered within his heart and muttered out, “So fierce…”
This was it. Her eyes were totally flushed red with rage right now.
“Just a single ‘I’ve made a mistake,’ and you expect to let this tide over just like this?!?” She looked at Lin Fan filled with indignance.
She had reincarnated multiple times, but this was the first time she had encountered such humiliation. If he weren’t accountable for this, there was no way she could let this go in her heart!
Lin Fan’s heart skipped a beat. Goddammit! He should have known that women were petty. Although, he had to admit that this woman was the strongest being he had ever seen with a full seventy energy grid line chains under her name.
But despite that, a woman was a woman. She was going to bear a grudge until this thing eventually got explained.
But he was somebody who hated hassles. How could he have the spare time to argue with her?
“Then what do you want? I asked if you were the Heaven Queen, yet you refused to reply. Goodness, over the years, there have been tons of people who were mistaken and beaten to a pulp by me, but all of them accepted it willingly. This is the first time I’ve come across somebody who’s so petty about it! Gosh!” Lin Fan placed his hands behind his back and replied without a single bit of concern.
“You…!” This was the first time the woman had encountered someone who was this shameless! She wanted to ask: ‘Have you EVER given me a chance to speak from the start?!?’
“You what you! So what if I were mistaken? You sent people down to Xuanjian Sect to destroy them. Now that I am here talking to you nicely instead of taking your life is something you should be grateful for already! Don’t go overboard now!” Even though Lin Fan had no woman in his life, but could someone who was a vegan in their entire lives claim that they hadn’t seen meat at all?
Hence, Lin Fan knew that the way to deal with a woman was to show them who was the boss. Otherwise, she would get all over one’s head, gosh!
The woman was close to exploding right now. That elegant disposition couldn’t even begin to hide that amount of resentment that was boiling within her. Furthermore, that wound on her back still stung from time to time, causing her to feel that same pain.
And from the sound of it, it seemed like he expected her to thank him for everything!
“When have I ever mentioned destroying Xuanjian Sect?” The woman asked while holding in her wrath.
At this point, Lin Fan raised his palm and stopped the woman, “Alright, alright. Whether or not you want to destroy it is none of my business. The main point was that striking me is just asking for death.”
“Don’t be too much. No one has ever dared to speak to me in this manner.” Listening to this, she was thoroughly incensed.
“Oh, spare the crap, please. If you’re unhappy, then come at me, simple as that. No one has ever dared to give me that acting strong bullsht and still managed to live till now. You’re the first, so feel grateful for that.” Lin Fan looked her straight in the eye. He was determined to get the upper hand of this situation.
“You…!” The woman clutched at her chest. It was as if she had nowhere else to channel this rage. Opening her mouth, she spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Hmph, don’t try to play the victim in front of me. I’ve told you, you’re not at the state whereby you’re so beautiful that I would feel pity for you.” Lin Fan flicked his robes with a look of disdain.
“You…you…!” She was flushed entirely red. Finger pointing at Lin Fan, she couldn’t even continue speaking right now.
“Alright, alright. You can leave now. I’ll spare your life for today, but I hope that you keep your behavior in check from now on. Even though you’ve got seventy energy grid line chains, if I truly want to kill you, all it would take is a simple move.” Lin Fan said calmly.
The woman felt that her mental state was breaking down right in front of this man. She could barely restrain herself from acting like a wild beast and chewing this man to death.
“Alright, let me ask you. Why do I sense an ancient aura coming from you?” She asked after taking a deep breath.
Lin Fan was stunned momentarily. This was the first time he heard someone sense the aura of his Eternal Arm. This was curious indeed.
“None of your business.” Even though he was a little rude now, he just wanted to be rid of this woman. Everything that had happened today was exasperating enough.
First, he had gotten somebody who was falling head over heels for him just over a single act of bullsht. And then she even brought a son for him.
Just thinking about it was enough to give him blue balls.
Even though Xuan Yunxian was really pretty, this girl before him had her own merits in terms of features. But to Lin Fan, no matter what happened, there had to be an emotional foundation.
Otherwise, once they got to the stage of a more intimate form of interaction, he wouldn’t be able to unlock more stances with them due to the lack of connection. That would make things really boring now.
“Can you just talk properly? This concerns the future of the entire Xuanhuang World.” The woman was riled up once more.
“None of your business.”
“You’re going overboard…!”
“None of your business.”
“You…!” Before she could even finish, she was cut off.
“None of your business.”
“Urgh…!” She was so enraged with this ‘None of your business’ that she spat out another mouthful of blood once more.
“Alright, since this is the case, all I can tell you is to not assume that it’s a good thing having that ancient aura. You will definitely regret it. I won’t return to Xuanjian Sect, but I hope that the next time we meet, you’re able to maintain the same calmness.” The girl locked her gaze with Lin Fan before ripping the void up and prepared to leave.
“Oh, your boobs are uneven. One’s big and the other’s small. You’ve got to take care of it, man.”
“Urgh…urgh…!”
Right before the gap in the void closed, Lin Fan could see the woman puking out another few mouthful of blood. She was wobbling as though she could fall at any moment.
At this, Lin Fan swept his robes aside. Raising his head, he looked up into the distant sky and sighed.
In the past, Zhuge Liang could cause someone’s death by berating him, and in modern times, Lin Fan’s ‘None of your business’ could cause others to puke out blood as well.
No matter what aspect one challenged Yours Truly in, one would truly just lose out.
Finally, she was gone…
As the woman made her move, Lin Fan finally let loose a smile. But what he couldn’t understand was how this girl was so strikingly similar to the Heaven Queen. Was it truly just a coincidence or something more…?
And what did she mean by saying that it was not a good thing to maintain that ancient aura?
The reason why Saint Devil Sect was destroyed was due to that single drop of God Blood.
Even though that God Blood was already fused within his body, he had no idea what to do with it, or what it could do.
Even though Lin Fan knew that all these ‘Eternal’ items might not be that good, they were smelted by the Heaven and Earth Smelt after all. There really shouldn’t be any issues.
But Lin Fan still felt that it was of utmost importance to get himself stronger right now. Anything else could all wait.
The only way to ensure that he could protect everything was when he was invincible.
Chapter 333: Lin Fan: The Man With A Brain For Cultivation
p>On Dongling Continent, there existed an islet which was isolated from the rest of the world. This islet was shrouded in a mist of turbidity.
On this islet, a gap was ripped apart from the void as a shadow stumbled out of it.
This was the person whom Lin Fan had mistaken as the Heaven Queen.
The girl’s face was slightly pale, with bloodstains at the side of her lips. Even though she was filled with anger at what happened earlier, she was pressed with other stuff, so she did not bother staying.
An altar on the islet…
In the middle of the altar laid a stone coffin. There wasn’t even a single speck of dust on the coffin. Covered with runic markings, four old people surrounded the coffin on all sides. They sat cross-legged, as if they were rooted on the spot. Beams of light were being emitted from these 4 people onto the coffin, suppressing whatever evil the stone coffin contained deep within.
The girl went up the altar and came beside the four old people, reporting to them about some stuff.
Expressionless, all four of them sighed gently. Looking at the stone coffin in the middle of the altar, a look of worry spread through their faces.
Seemed like they had failed after all. The Ancient One was already out…
…
Within a forest…
Lin Fan shrugged his head. Now that he had leveled up, the system obtained a new function as well.
Opening up the panel, Lin Fan was pleased when he saw the function of the energy grid lines. At the same time, he frowned. Seemed like now that he was a greater celestial, he would have to place focus on gathering energy grid line chains as well.
Lin Fan sat down crosslegged, trying to feel and grasp the power of the energy grid lines between Heaven and Earth.
Suddenly, Lin Fan felt his consciousness seemingly leaving him to float between Heaven and Earth. Bright spots floated around him. Curious towards this, Lin Fan stretched out his hand trying to grasp at these light spots.
‘Ding…congratulations on discovering energy grid of Metal. Congeal it?’
‘Ding…congratulations on discovering energy grid of Water. Congeal it?’
…
Looking at these colourful spots, Lin Fan began to understand.
All of those energy grid line chains were made of these bright spots being concentrated and congealed together. And these bright spots varied in colors and shapes. It took time for one to slowly build them together.
‘Congeal energy grid of Water.’
‘Ding…congelation of energy grid of Water has begun. Progress 1%.’
Lin Fan could feel the different sorts of energy grids and bright spots moving towards him from all sorts of direction. Fusing together, that energy of Heaven and Earth surged within Lin Fan as well.
He frowned. The moment this energy of Heaven and Earth entered his body, they were rampaging within like beasts without an owner, colliding with everything else in his body vigorously. It seemed as though they were bent on breaking out of his body before finally being suppressed by the system.
A smile curled on Lin Fan’s lips. Seemed like it wasn’t so easy to form an energy grid line chain after all. This was because one had to slowly suppress all these different and varying energies even after they entered one’s body before even arranging them in order. It was like a DNA helix.
But to Lin Fan’s pleasant surprise, the system worked to suppress all these energy grid light spots as they entered his body, saving him a lot of time compared to everyone else.
Thinking back, even Grandmaster Yan and the others had to spend 100 years et cetera to only create tens of energy grid line chains. This was evidently not an easy task.
The strongest system was the strongest system indeed. Just this function alone was a heavenly defying existence.
One hour later…
Lin Fan opened his eyes with a weird look on his face.
‘Energy grid of Water, 5%.’
Wasn’t this way too fast?!?
Lin Fan was totally stumped by the speed of congealing. With just a single hour, the energy grid of water had progressed to 5%! If this were the case, then he wouldn’t need too long to create an energy grid line chain!
If he were to create one per day, he could end up with 300+ chains by the end of a single year!
Who the f*ck would still be his opponent? Everyone should just surrender right then and there!
Hais…
Lin Fan stood up and just felt these energy grid spots automatically. He didn’t have to work on it intentionally, and just let the congelation progress on its own.
What a life of cheating! He couldn’t even feel a single bit of satisfaction over a successful cultivation.
The only thing he could feel would be the eventual happiness of ruling over everything.
Having smelt a number of people, Lin Fan had a total of 75 energy grid line chains in his storage. He wanted to see if he could just absorb all of these but found that it was not possible.
But this fact helped Lin Fan feel fairer as well. If one were able to absorb the energy grid line chains of others, then why would he bother with cultivation? He could just kill to absorb their energy grid line chains to grow stronger.
Since he couldn’t absorb these 75 energy grid line chains, he might as well put them to good use.
‘Blood Gate, come out.’
Lin Fan took out the Blood Gate from within his storage. That mighty gate filled with blood energy floated gently in the skies.
On the gate, all those vengeful spirits howled bloodily, as if they were going to devour the entire world and end all life.
Looking at the Blood Gate, Lin Fan grinned, ‘I had thought that you were a useless object. But seems like it’s time for you to start being useful.’
‘Tribute 10 energy grid line chains.’
‘Blood Demon Emperor, come out!’
The 10 energy grid line chains coiled around one another and a sinister force from within sucked all 10 of them into the Blood Gate.
‘Creak…creak…’
The tightly shut doors of the Blood Gate opened wide. A red beam of light, as if was filled with a life of its own, coiled around the Blood Gate.
‘Who is it that summons me, the Emperor?’
“It’s Yours Truly. Hurry up and come out!” Lin Fan’s eyes glinted with anticipation.
BOOM!
A sea of blood seemed to rumble above on the skies as a gigantic red hand began to stretch out slowly from within the Blood Gate.
The five fingers of the arm were extremely sharp and huge, like small mountain peaks on their own. Just a single arm was enough to give off a devastating aura, so powerful that it could cause one to lose any will to even resist.
Within the Blood Gate…
Blood World…
The whole place was a sea of blood with no boundaries to it. The Blood Demon Emperor was born from this sea of blood and possessed an incredible power.
Right now, he was seated on this throne that was made up entire of blood from the sea of blood as well. That mighty and imposing frame of his was extremely domineering, as his bloody eyes looked down with contempt at the rest of the world.
Small little Blood Demons were coiled around his gigantic feet in the sea of blood.
The Demon Blood Emperor was one of the overlords of the Blood World.
Right now, he was feeling pretty excited over this mysterious force that he could feel summoning himself.
It had been a long, long time since he was summoned.
Although he was pretty pissed off that his arm was threatened to be ripped off the previous time he was summoned, he knew that he couldn’t fight against that level of strength of that person.
But even then, the Blood Demon Emperor still knew no fear. He had to let his name travel across the different worlds and have everyone bow down and serve before him, respecting him.
The tribute of 10 energy grid line chains was far from enough for the Blood Demon Emperor to present his entire body. But with just a single arm, he knew that he could suppress all other beings.
Looking at the slowly outstretching arm, Lin Fan was extremely excited as well. He took out his Eternal Axe immediately and began to sharpen it. This blood red arm was his prey!
“You puny human who dares to summon me, the emperor. What do you want?” The imposing voice of the Blood Demon Emperor boomed out from beyond the Blood Gate.
“Chop!!!” Just at that instant, Lin Fan gripped his Eternal Axe tightly and leaped into the skies, cutting down in the direction of the arm.
“What are you doing! Human!” The Blood Demon Emperor was furious when he felt the aura of the human who summoned him striking at himself. But he was bounded by the rules of the underworld that he could not attack the person who summoned him. Hence, he could only watch as this happened.
“Chopping off your arm, duh!” With a loud roar, Lin Fan’s aura exploded.
The Eternal Axe glowed brightly as it chopped down cleanly.
