Chapter 418: Winner Of Life

Lin Fan was feeling especially emotional right now. He stepped up and patted Qu Xiang Ge's shoulders, lamenting in a deep tone, "Oh, Little Qu, I can understand your pain. I truly hadn't thought things through properly back then. To think that it would result in such calamity for you."

As a man, Lin Fan must naturally acknowledge his mistakes.

Looking at how melancholic Qu Xiang Ge was, it would be really not right of him to mock this guy.

At the start, Qu Xiang Ge had thought that this was doomed to be his fate for the rest of his life. However, upon catching sight of Lin Fan here, his heart thumped furiously.

The thought of clashing with Lin Fan for revenge did cross his mind. However, he knocked it off quickly.

Back when he was a happy bandit, he was ambitious and lustful towards a high cultivation state. However, now that he had reached the cultivation state he wanted and had been through so many things, Qu Xiang Ge had truly let go of many things.

The only wish he had right now was to turn back to be a true man.

"No, Senior, this is not your fault as well. At the start, I was indeed pretty excited about this. However, having been through so many things in life, I've thought things through. All I want now is a peaceful life to pass by." Qu Xiang Ge replied with a pitiful look in his eyes.

"Little Qu, are you really willing to let go of your powers right now?" Looking at how badly Qu Xiang Ge wanted to return to his previous self, Lin Fan did feel a slight tinge of reluctance. After all, it was difficult finding powerful beings. If he could recruit this person under him, that would be a pretty decent choice.

"Yes, I can let go! I definitely can!" Qu Xiang Ge replied hurriedly.

Right now, his only wish was to turn back to before.

Look at how he was right now! What did they call this again?

Other than that power that he possessed, he was neither male nor female! With a man's figure, he possessed the specific parts of women.

This was just a tranny freak!

In fact, Qu Xiang Ge would even wonder at times whether he was a he or a she!

Even though Lin Fan's face was deep and mysterious right now, his inner heart was in turmoil. To think that the body of Yin and Yang that he had created could be this powerful! In fact, this might not even be the ultimate form that someone who possessed this body could achieve!

But now that the other party wished to turn back to normal, there was no way Lin Fan could refuse that.

"Alright then. Since things had come to this, I'll turn you back then." Lin Fan replied calmly.

"Thank you! Senior!" A smile beamed across Qu Xiang Ge's face.

He was simply overwhelmed with joy!

Lin Fan had Qu Xiang Ge stand properly. Since this fella had changed due to Twisting Heaven and Earth, the trick should be to use Twisting Heaven and Earth once more.

"Prepare yourself. After you turn back, your cultivation state will be gone and you'll become a normal human from then on." Lin Fan continued.

"Yes, I'm prepared." Qu Xiang Ge nodded his head anxiously. He had waited for this outcome for a long, long time now.

Before that, Lin Fan made sure to retrieve all of Qu Xiang Ge's energy grid line chains. Even though there were only 10 chains, it was still worth a little something.

Looking at the crotch of Qu Xiang Ge, Lin Fan took in a deep breath. The atmosphere seemed pretty damn weird, gosh!

He took out a glove from his storage. After all, personal hygiene was the most important to Lin Fan.

"Prepare…"

"Yes, Senior! I'm totally prepared!"

"I'm coming…"

"Yes, Senior! Please come now!"

Suddenly, the skies changed color as though something incredible was about to happen.

'Twisting Heaven and Earth.'

Yin and Yang switched positions as a tuft of black and white mist appeared in Lin Fan's palms. This was the ultimate meaning of the world, the energy of both Yin and Yang.

The reason why Lin Fan could possess a power as such was all because of the skill.

BOOM!

Within that instant, Twisting Heaven and Earth was successfully employed.

Something was changing within Qu Xiang Ge's body. A tuft of mist was swirling within his body, changing it rapidly.

Curling his finger, a bright light shot out from Qu Xiang Ge's body.

This was the unique power that was cultivated through the body of Yin and Yang. Normal human beings would not be able to contain this power. However, now that Qu Xiang Ge's body was changing back, this power was no longer suited for his body.

If this power were to remain within his body, his body might not be able to withstand the energy and just implode from within.

By the time the light dissipated, Qu Xiang Ge had turned back into a normal human being.

"Senior, I've succeeded!" Qu Xiang Ge looked at his own body. Feeling that familiar yet foreign feeling of that thing in his crotch once more, he was so emotional he could cry right now.

Finally, the past two years of being neither a man nor woman had disappeared entirely!

"Yes, you're back." Lin Fan nodded his head.

Twisting Heaven and Earth was truly a sick move. But it didn't matter. Lin Fan did learn one thing from this incident as well: Not everyone in this world sought power.

"Now that your cultivation state is gone, you need to be careful in the world from now on." Lin Fan advised him sincerely.

Qu Xiang Ge was a bandit back then, enjoying life carefreely. However, ever since he had met with Lin Fan the devil, his life changed entirely. Now that his life had returned to him, Qu Xiang Ge was elated beyond anything else.

"Yes, Senior! Don't worry! I've accumulated a number of objects in these past two years! I believe that as long as I work hard, I'll definitely become strong again one day!" Qu Xiang Ge did not hide anything in front of Lin Fan.

Even though Qu Xiang Ge had suffered plenty in the past two years, with his decent cultivation state, he did manage to gather quite a number of valuable treasures.

While his cultivation state was gone, he still had the treasures. There was no guarantee that he might be able to return back to that original power level with these treasures, but at least he wouldn't have issues defending himself.

Looking at Qu Xiang Ge, many thoughts were flying through Lin Fan's mind right now.

This man was a winner of life!

Even though he had undergone a sex change, he did have a great boost in cultivation state that brought him around to see the world. At the same time, that allowed him to collect all sorts of valuable treasures. Even though his cultivation state was gone now that he had returned to his normal body, all the experiences and wisdom were still retained in that mind of his. As long as he didn't die prematurely, Qu Xiang Ge would definitely be a big winner of life one day.

"Go on…" Lin Fan gestured, allowing Qu Xiang Ge to leave.

After thanking Lin Fan profusely, Qu Xiang Ge scampered away and ran off from this place.

Lin Fan came before the Heavenly pillars.

The nine great sect's Grandmasters, Yan Emperor, and Fang Han were leashed up on them.

A series of tragic cries rang out across the skies.

Wang Xiaoliu and the others, who were hiding in the sect, could not help but shiver at the sounds of these cries.

When the ground trembled and the skies changed colors as tilting day and night, they were filled with fear.

"LET ME GO…!" Each and every one of them was screaming out with a look of beseech on their faces. They had not expected this to be their outcome.

"Let you guys go? Do you really think that's possible?" Lin Fan chuckled.

"Senior Brother Lin! Please let me go! Your Junior Brother knows his mistake now!" Fang Han cried out amidst tears and snot.

Everyone had seen the battle that had happened with their very eyes. That was not a fight of humans anymore. That was not something they could hope to resist.

Even if they were in their peak forms right now, they were definitely no match for Lin Fan.

Tossing a dirty glance at Fang Han, Lin Fan chuckled once more and let Chicky out of his storage. The moment Chicky came out, he cried out loudly at the situation. However, looking into the distance, he was stunned as well.

Even though he did not know what had happened, he could tell from the destruction of the entire place that sh*t must have hit the roof.

"Chicky, go and get me their storage rings." Lin Fan ordered.

'Cuckoo…!' Upon hearing these orders, Chicky's eyes lit up. These were the type of errands he loved the most.

Seeing this bunch of people, Lin Fan knew that trash must be recycled to their fullest potential. Even though he didn't have many expectations from the items within their storage rings, the quantity should make up for the quality.

Looking at these Grandmasters, they hadn't made much of an improvement in cultivation state over the past two years. In fact, they weren't even comparable to Qu Xiang Ge. What trashes!

But on second thought, Qu Xiang Ge possessed the help of the Yin and Yang body. That speed of cultivation was not something that these guys could hope to overtake.



Chapter 419: Glorious Return Home

Looking at the items inside the eleven storage rings, Lin Fan did not spot anything spectacular. Seemed like these were probably every single last bit of worth of these poor f*cks.

"Lin Fan, let us go! If you don’t, you will cause the entire Cangling Continent to go into chaos!" The Grandmaster of Wind Sword Sect hollered. There was a deep fear within his eyes. He had not expected that even with this many people, they weren’t a match for this lad.

Just what sort of trials had this lad undergone?! Why the hell had he turned this strong in just two years? This was just unbelievable!

Looking at these Grandmasters, Lin Fan let out a cold laugh.

"Chaos or not, cut your bull. I’ve already made my words clear from the start. No matter who arrives, no one shall bail you guys out."

Lin Fan took out the two tablets of his senior brothers and placed them on the ground.

"My two dearest senior brothers, you guys must watch this carefully. Your junior brother shall avenge you guys today." Looking at these tablets, Lin Fan’s mind was filled with memories.

Even though his cultivation state wasn’t that high back then, these two senior brothers had been extremely caring towards him.

Even though it all started with him sneaking an attack on them for the sake of his own experience points, they were simple people. Just because he crafted a sword for each of them, they were already overwhelmed with joy and forgave everything he did immediately.

Where else could he find such senior brothers who could care for him as such?

But, everything was destroyed. Right now, the only way left for him was to become stronger so that he could continue protecting those who were important to him.

However, everyone’s hearts shuddered the moment they caught sight of Lin Fan’s frosty gaze. They had a really bad feeling about this. From his gaze, they could sense the killing intent.

Were they really going down right here today?

"I had a good mind about leaving you guys to torture. But, I’m starting to gain a new realization. Allowing you sh*ts to live in this world for yet another second is in fact a form of clemency for you guys. All of you can go to Hell." With a single tremendous slap, the void ripped apart as it dragged on everyone with it.

‘AHHHHH…!!!’

BOOM!

Flicking his robes, Lin Fan tossed all of them into the smelt.

‘Smelt…!’

Trash was meant to be recycled. It was best to retrieve all their energy grid line chains.

‘Ding…congratulations on smelting.’

’35 energy grid line chains.’

"What the?! These guys are truly trash…" Lin Fan kept all the energy grid line chains. He had 105 energy grid line chains now. This should be quite enough to start summoning the Heart Demon Emperor for some essence blood!

"Big bro…!" Wang Xiaoliu ran over from a distance.

Lin Fan looked at Wang Xiaoliu and the others, thinking of the course of action he should take.

"What do you guys intend to do from here on forth?" Lin Fan asked the masses.

Everyone looked at Lin Fan and went deep into thought.

"I’ve left my hometown for a few years now. I wonder if the place is even still around."

"Me too. I want to head back home for a look."

...

Listening to everyone, Lin Fan gathered that all of them basically just wanted to head home. It seemed as though they had lost all hope towards the path of cultivation.

As long as they were even alive, they were more than glad.

"What about you, Xiaoliu?" Lin Fan looked at Wang Xiaoliu and asked.

Everything he had ever promised Wang Xiaoliu, he would definitely fulfill it. The only thing now was to see what Xiaoliu himself wanted.

If Xiaoliu wanted to carry on with the path of cultivation, Lin Fan would take him back to Glory Sect.

"Big bro, I want to go home. I’ve been away for 4-5 years. My wife and mum are still waiting for me back home." Wang Xiaoliu had already lost all hope towards the path of martial arts. After being tormented in Qiankun Sect for so many years, he was only grateful for being alive right now. He no longer wanted to carry on with this path. All he wanted was to get back home to his family.

"That’s fine as well. Let me send you guys back then." Lin Fan nodded his head. Flicking his robes, he took everyone with him into the void.

Right before leaving, he took one last glance at Saint Devil Sect.

This was a place he would return to one day. Once he could break through both continents, he would definitely shift Saint Devil Sect back home.

After Lin Fan left with everyone else…

A figure appeared in the void of that now quiet battlefield of Saint Devil Sect.

This figure was evil, horrifying, and sinister.

It was a type of sinister feeling different from the Grandmaster of Infinite Devil Sect. It was also a different from the Yan Emperor.

Yet, the aura that he emanated was way stronger than any of them.

If Lin Fan were still around and caught sight of the figure, he would definitely be in for a shock.

Wasn’t this fella Mo Yixuan?

This was one of the two powerful beings that Lin Fan had once robbed. In the end, he was forced into a void and was devoured by a mysterious dark abyss.

In fact, Lin Fan’s current Faceless Sky Demon was stolen from this guy!

"Father, to think that you’re already dead. But it doesn’t matter…" In that instant, the void rippled as Mo Yixuan left the place.

...

Lin Fan traversed through the void while searching for the hometowns of his punching bag gang. He then let them out and return home on their own.

Given their current strength, if they had to return home from Saint Devil Sect themselves, they would probably be devoured whole by beasts along the way, or even lose their lives to bandits.

Along the way, Lin Fan conversed with them.

When they heard that Lin Fan had taken over the post of Saint Devil Sect’s Grandmaster, all of them revealed a bright beam on their faces.

They knew their places, hence, none of them were even jealous in the least bit.

In fact, Wang Xiaoliu was especially happy. To think that even the Grandmaster would be trained in his family’s technique. That alone was the pride of the Wang Family!

Wang Xiaoliu was all smiles along the way. That was enough to explain the amount of happiness and bliss he had in his heart.

"Everyone, I shall drop you guys here. From here on forth, I shall rebuild the Saint Devil Sect. Once we become strong once more in the future, please come back and take a look." Lin Fan said bye to the last batch of punching bag gang members.

"Yes, we definitely will!" Being able to leave that horrifying Qiankun Sect, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

Once upon a time, they were brimming with hope to tread on the path of martial arts. However, reality had dealt all of them a tough blow.

Now that they were able to rejoin with their families once more, that was the happiest thing they could ever wish for.

"Take all these valuables. It’s time for me to send Xiaoliu back." Lin Fan had taken all these valuables from the other Grandmasters, but had no use for them.

...

After Lin Fan’s figure disappeared into the void once more, everyone waved into the distance exuberantly.

"Actually, I do feel like returning to the sect. However, having been through all of these, I don’t think I’m too cut out for this path."

"Me too. I know that if we return to the sect, Senior Brother Lin would definitely take care of us and no one would dare to bully us. However, right now I really want to head home first."

"Hais, let’s not think about it anymore. If we ever get the chance, let’s send our kids there in the future."

"That’s right. Even if we can’t make it, we must definitely make sure our kids pave a glorious path for our families."

"Haha…"

...

Everyone was filled with joy as they headed back towards the city, arms on one another’s shoulders.

The events of these past few years were something that they wouldn’t forget for the rest of their life. But, these years weren’t wasted. No matter what, they did get to learn the Titanium Grade Demon Body.

Even though their powers might not be that high, they would have no problem defending themselves.

Besides, with the amount of money that Senior Brother Lin had given them, they would definitely be able to start a small business or something. Life would definitely be easy and carefree.

...

"Xiaoliu, what’s wrong." Looking at the nervous look on Xiaoliu’s face, Lin Fan chuckled.

"Big bro, I’ve left my hometown for a really long time now. I wonder if they’re still around." A look of worry streaked through Xiaoliu’s eyes. He had wanted to bring glory to his ancestors. Therefore, despite the pleas of his family, he had left them to join a sect no matter what.

But now that so many years had passed without a single achievement to his name, Xiaoliu was feeling some regrets.

"It’s alright, let’s go..."



Chapter 420: Such A Great Opportunity

Heaven Mountain City…

This was an extremely ordinary city within Cangling Continent. While it was considered standard, there was a lot of land within its boundary with extensive resources.

Within Heaven Mountain City was a tall mountain. Many structures were built on this tall mountain. Most of them were grand in sight. This was the place where the rich and famous lived.

The rest of the commoners were scattered down the base of the mountain. This was the exact reason for the name of the place, Heaven Mountain City.

"Xiaoliu, do you remember where your house was?" Floating in the endless void, Lin Fan looked down at this unique landscape curiously. Even though he had not gone down personally, with his current strength, he could take in the entire place thoroughly through his senses.

It was evident that the ruler of the Heaven Mountain City was at the peak of the mountain below.

With luck coiling all around and an auspicious purple cloud along with it, that was the most decent place in the area.

In the eyes of commoners, this should be a pretty formidable character.

But to Lin Fan, he was only so-so.

Taking Xiaoliu as an example, his luck was immensely high right now compared to the low level it was before. And the reason for that was because he met a benefactor of his life who could change his fate.

That was none other than Yours Truly.

"It’s been a long time since I’ve returned. Even though there have been some changes, I suppose that it should still be down there at the foot of the mountain." Wang Xiaoliu’s face was eager and anxious. He couldn’t wait to catch the sight of his family.

Looking at Wang Xiaoliu, a sense of enlightenment overwhelmed Lin Fan.

Men of humble backgrounds had wishes and desires.

From this day forth, he should really refrain from killing too much. But of course, if they were enemies, there was no excuse. One palm to take them down as always.

"Alright, let’s go down and take a look then…" Grabbing hold of Wang Xiaoliu, Lin Fan jumped out of the void and headed in the direction which Xiaoliu mentioned.

With Lin Fan’s current strength, no one could notice him at all. Therefore, even those so-called powerful beings on the mountain peak did not even realize Lin Fan’s arrival.

They landed…

Wang Xiaoliu got pretty emotional, and at the same time, there was a look of disbelief.

"Big bro, I remember this place! Back when I left my hometown, this was the path that I had taken!"’ Wang Xiaoliu commented excitedly.

Lin Fan nodded his head silently. That had better be the case. Hopefully, his hopes and dreams would not end up being empty.

The moment Lin Fan and Wang Xiaoliu landed on the ground, they naturally attracted the attention of commoners. However, these people refrained from communicating with them. Instead, they went into hushed whispers.

They didn’t know who these people were.

Wang Xiaoliu had already left his hometown for a good 4-5 years. Therefore, he wasn’t recognized by anyone naturally.

...

Just then, Lin Fan and Wang Xiaoliu stopped in their tracks. There was a group of children who were bullying a single kid up ahead.

"You’re a b*stard child! You don’t even have a father!"

"That’s right! Your mum’s even working at my place as a maid! If you dare to get me riled up, I’ll ask my father to fire her!"

"The next time you see us you better give us some respect! Otherwise, I’ll have you looking for your teeth all over the floor!"

...

"Big bro, what’s wrong?" Wang Xiaoliu wondered why his big bro had stopped walking.

"Nothing much, just taking a look." Looking at the kid who was being bullied, Lin Fan’s lips curled into a smile.

"Big bro, these are common stuff after all. Back when I was a kid, I was often bullied as well, and would always return with a bruised face." Looking at the bunch of children, Wang Xiaoliu chuckled.

"Alright, let’s go…" Looking at the bunch of children scatter, Lin Fan chuckled. "Xiaoliu, you must make sure you raise your kid up well and not let him get bullied often."

"Naturally, big bro! Don’t worry! I’ll definitely have my kid be the king of kids! But right now, I don’t even know if they’re around." Wang Xiaoliu’s heart was thumping furiously. His face was fraught with worries as well.

After all, he had already left the place for 4-5 years. Back then, there was only an aging mother and his wife back home. In those past years, he hadn’t even come back once. He didn’t know if his mother had passed away or whether his wife had remarried.

Along the way back, Wang Xiaoliu had already made mental preparations. No matter the outcome, he would bear it all within his heart.

...

As they walked, the number of people that followed behind Lin Fan and Wang Xiaoliu increased. To these curious people, they were naturally wondering what these two were here for.

"Big bro! Take a look! That’s my place!" Wang Xiaoliu pointed to a house in front excitedly.

Raising his head, Lin Fan let out a long sigh. This place was pretty big indeed with a large garden yard. However, it was a little derelict.

At the same time, the plaque at the front of the house was a pretty worn out.

‘Wang’s Residences.’

Seemed like Wang Xiaoliu was right. This used to be a pretty prosperous household in the past. But it had since fallen. No wonder Wang Xiaoliu would leave his house to seek out a sect. He was probably hoping to regain his house’s glory one day.

"What’s wrong? You’re not heading in?" Wang Xiaoliu was touching the wooden doors with his hands trembling. Looking at his actions, Lin Fan smiled and asked.

"Big bro, I-I’m nervous." Wang Xiaoliu said a little unnaturally.

"What are you afraid of...?" Lin Fan pushed gently and nudged Wang Xiaoliu through.

Everything within looked like how he had left it to be, except that they were more tattered and worn out.

Within the courtyard…

A young woman was pulling onto a young child. At the same time, she was applying some sort of medicinal oil on the young child while chiding about something.

This young lady looked to be in her twenties. However, perhaps it was the toll of labor on her body that she looked considerably aged than she should be.

The moment Wang Xiaoliu stepped in…

The young woman and her child looked at the door squarely. At the same time, the young child took up a wooden stick and glared at Wang Xiaoliu cautiously, protecting his mother in front.

Silent.

Unusually silent.

There were no words.

Looking at this young woman, it was as though Wang Xiaoliu was completely stumped. Without saying anything, Lin Fan stepped out quietly. Closing the door, he stood in front of the door.

Suddenly, a massive aura erupted out from within him.

There was one last thing he needed to do.

He needed to fulfill that promise back then.

"If the day comes where I rule over this world and you’re still alive, I’ll definitely make sure you rise and lead a life of glory."

...

The residence was filled with cries. At the same time, an elderly voice came along, followed by more weeping.

Lin Fan let out a smile. This was indeed the perfect ending.

At the point where he noticed the kid earlier on, he had already known that that was Wang Xiaoliu’s child. After all, there was a mysterious connection within one’s bloodlines that were connected. While ordinary people might not be able to tell, Lin Fan could.

Time passed by the second and minute.

The doors of the Wang Residences opened up.

The family of four walked out. Wang Xiaoliu had used the time to explain his circumstances over the past few years to his family. Knowing that Wang Xiaoliu’s big bro was still waiting for him outside, his mother and wife hurried out to welcome him.

As for Wang Xiaoliu, they would naturally deal with him later on.

However, the moment they opened their doors, they were dumbstruck.

The ruler of Heaven Mountain City had arrived. At the same time, all the leaders of the great families of Heaven Mountain City had all arrived. All of them were waiting right outside their doorsteps.

Lin Fan turned around. Looking at Wang Xiaoliu, whose face was all puffy and swollen from crying, Lin Fan chuckled. At the same time, looking at the elderly woman beside him, Lin Fan cupped his fists together and greeted.

"Elder, I’ve sent Xiaoliu back home. He’ll never leave his home like that ever again." Lin Fan smiled.

"Good…good…" The elderly woman was befuddled as her speech stuttered.

"Xiaoliu, this is your son? What’s his name?" Lin Fan asked.

"Big bro, he’s called Xiao Ming! Son, hurry and call Uncle!" Wang Xiaoliu was almost brought to tears. He had not expected his son to be so big after coming back home.

And this was definitely his son for sure!

The five-year-old Xiao Ming looked at Lin Fan nervously. He then called out anxiously, "U-uncle!"

The moment Wang Xiaoming said those words, that empty luck that was floating above his head immediately skyrocketed and pierced through the Heavens.

"Good kid, good kid." Lin Fan patted his head and smiled.

"Sir, may I know who you are?" The ruler of Heaven Mountain City took a look at Lin Fan, his heart thumping furiously.

All of them had felt the burst of aura just now. It was so strong that they didn’t even have a single bit of resistance.

Lin Fan looked at everyone from Heaven Mountain City present and addressed them, "It doesn’t matter who I am. All you need to know is that, if anyone from the Wang Residences suffers even a single bit of harm from this day forth, none of you shall exist any longer."

Everyone from Heaven Mountain City were shocked. Some of them were the leaders of great families in the city! Since when had they ever been threatened as such?

"Sir! Aren’t you being a little too overbearing?!" The ruler of Heaven Mountain City was enraged.

Lin Fan ignored them completely and called up to the Heavens, "Heaven’s Will, come out…!"

BOOM!

Instantly, the void rumbled as a tremendous aura appeared up in the skies.

Now that the Heaven’s Will had been completely trained up by Lin Fan, he was more obedient than anyone else. Upon hearing Lin Fan’s voice, how could he not obey this call?

"Heaven’s Will!?" Everyone from Heaven Mountain City was stunned this scene. They had not seen the Heaven’s Will before. But this aura was simply way too formidable!

Vast, boundless. No one could even fight this at all!

"From this day forth, you shall take care of everyone in this Wang Family. If anyone, ANYONE, dares to be insolent to them… Kill." Lin Fan’s voice was calm.

"Yes…" Heaven’s Will nodded his head gently. Raising his fingers gently, two thunderbolts shot down from the Heavens, changing along the way. They landed down and formed 2 Qilin Stone Lions that stood on each side of the entrance of the Wang Residences.

"These are the Heaven’s Will’s protection, and will be able to guard against any offense." Heaven’s Will continued.

"Good." Lin Fan nodded his head, entirely disregarding all the shocked faces of everyone from Heaven Mountain City. He then turned to Wang Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, it’s time for me to go. Fight on and take care from here on forth."

"Big bro..." Looking at Lin Fan, Wang Xiaoliu was almost touched to tears.

Lin Fan patted his shoulders, "We’ll meet again if we have affinity in the future."

Now that there was the protection of the Heaven’s Will, no one in this world should be able to threaten Wang Xiaoliu. His promise had not gone empty.

After giving them such a great starting opportunity, if the Wang Family still didn’t rise to prosperity in the next 100 years or so, then there would truly be nothing that Lin Fan could do.

Lin Fan then drew out a gap in the void and disappeared within.

He left behind a bunch of people who stood there, dazed at all that had happened.

...



Chapter 421: Arriving At The Doorsteps Himself

Ever since Lin Fan left the Heaven Mountain City, it was as though his entire spirit had been given a great booster. Perhaps this had something to do with that promise back then.

In the past, when he had laid down the promise, he didn’t think too much about it himself either. However, the stronger Lin Fan grew, the more he realized that promises as such were nudging him in his heart consistently. Perhaps, the shackles of the hearts could only be undone once he had fulfilled his promises.

After he had settled down Wang Xiaoliu’s family situation properly, he finally felt relief. Seemed like he had to take extra caution not to just promise that easily anymore.

For someone such as Yours Truly who was always true to his words, promises were never things to be taken back.

With that, Cangling Continent no longer had any attachments left for Lin Fan.

Everything that mattered to him right now was in Dongling Continent. For now, he would go and look for those students of his in the past. After that, he would leave this place and head back to Dongling Continent once more.

Damn it! He wondered when the bloody hell this Beast Spirit World would begin their invasion. These guys should at least give them some time to prepare, man!

There were only two worries on Lin Fan’s mind right now. First was the issue of the Beast Spirit World, and second the so-called Heaven’s Will.

BOOM!

Just then, Lin Fan sensed a loud explosion coming off from a distance.

There was an immense blood aura that surged through the skies in the distance, spreading out rapidly.

‘That’s weird. How could a place so unseemly like Cangling Continent cause such a huge ripple? Could something be wrong?’ At this moment, Lin Fan was dubious.

Suddenly, his face changed. Wasn’t that the place where Cao Tianjiao had sent out the signal?

Lin Fan had passed an object to Cao Tianjiao. Once he was done looking for all his classmates, all he had to do was crush the object and his location would be transmitted over to Lin Fan.

Evidently, that was the location where something was happening right now.

Even if Cao Tianjiao had received some sort of guidance from Lin Fan in the past, in the face of such an immense power, he was practically nothing but ants!

Lin Fan hastened his speed immediately…

"FUSHU, WHEN’S OUR TEACHER COMING!!!" Within a gorge somewhere, a group of people were huddled together tightly. Looking at the sight before them, they were so scared they were about to wet their pants.

The moment they heard that their teacher was arriving, all of them were excited beyond words. With that, they gathered at the gorge happily awaiting their teacher’s return.

However, before their teacher had even arrived, they seemed to have attracted a BOSS.

They were seated down together, engaged in conversation happily. After all, it had been two years since they were apart. Now that they were finally reunited, they had a lot of tales and stories to share.

But just then, the void suddenly tore apart right in their faces. At that point of time, they did not know what was within that gap at all.

But as they took a closer look, they were completely stumped.

They had traversed across the lands and seen all sorts of beasts. However, this was indeed the first time they saw something like this!

They could not even tell the end of its body! With a massive aura, this was practically a king amongst demons!

And just as they wanted to escape, this thing which had referred to itself as the Heart Demon Emperor blocked the path of everyone around. They were thus trapped.

"How would I know! All I did was crush the object that my teacher gave to me! It shouldn’t be too long before he’s here, I suppose!!!" Cao Tianjiao was practically on the brink of tears right now. Why the hell had things turned as such?

They had better not be crushed to death by this so-called Heart Demon Emperor before their teacher even arrived!

"Brother Xiao, what should we do!" A girl who was standing beside Xiaoze looked warily at the Heart Demon Emperor who was emerging out of the void slowly. Her heart was filled with fear as well.

This girl was none other than Liu Shuishui. Back in the classes, Liu Shuishui had already taken a liking to Xiaoze. Ever since the incident of the Great Yan Dynasty, all of them had escaped into the wilderness. Xiaoze and Liu Shuishui had stuck together to face the world. After two years of being together, they had since become a couple.

"Don’t worry…d-don’t worry!" Xiaoze gulped down his saliva. Even though he was asking her not to worry, his heart was thumping furiously in nervousness.

"Senior Brother Xiao, we’ll let her leave first! Us men will hold the fort later on!" Standing at a corner, Zang Tianhao spoke up.

"No, we’ll all definitely leave together." Dressed in green robes, this refined-looking Han Mengmeng’s face was resolute. While she was terrified as well, fear should not stop them from making their way out together.

Zang Tianhao and Xiaoze could be considered love rivals. However, they had made up after that. After all, things could be easily resolved once people faced it together.

"Zhu You, what do you intend to do about your Missy?" Cao Tianjiao asked Zhu You, who had gotten even plumper.

"Tianjiao, I’m not called Zhu You! I’m Zhu Di!" This rotund Zhu Di tried explaining.

"Alright, no one cares. After our teacher arrives, you’ll still be called Zhu You!" Cao Tianjiao threw her a single glance.

Zhu You could be considered a winner in life. Ever since the great escape from the Great Yan Dynasty, she was wandering around the roads like a vagrant. By a stroke of luck, she was adopted by a Missy of a rich family. With that, she became a guard of the Missy and was living a really good life.

Upon hearing Cao Tianjiao’s notice that their teacher had returned, Zhu You naturally couldn’t wait to see her teacher once more. At the same time, her Missy insisted on tagging along to take a look at her Zhu You’s teacher and find out who he was.

"Junior Sister Han, Brother Zang is right. You girls should leave first." Zhui Mo who had remained silent all the while spoke up as well.

Zhui Mo’s parent was a servant in one of the four great families of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Yun Family. Ever since that incident, he had escaped out into the wilds as well. Because he was a man of tenacity, he was able to endure all sorts of hardship, and his cultivation state had improved as such.

Even though he was nowhere near a top tiered powerful figure within Cangling Continent, for someone his age to have that sort of cultivation state was something pretty decent as well.

"Zhu Di, what should we do?" The girl who was being protected by Zhu Di was young with snow-white skin. One look at her exquisite features and one could tell that she belonged to a distinguished family. Therefore, the moment she caught sight of this mysterious creature that had emerged from the voids, she was totally scared witless.

As a Missy of a great family, she had seen all sorts of things. However, she was totally in thorough shock in front of this Heart Demon Emperor.

That violent aura coiled around the Earth. Everyone felt as though they were a little boat in the face of a tsunami, where they could be overturned and sink at any moment.

"Missy, don’t worry! Zhu Di will definitely ensure that you get away safely!" Zhu Di looked at the Heart Demon Emperor precariously. Her heart was filled with worries, wondering if any of them could even make it out alive.

"Eh? Guys, take a look! Look at that position of the Heart Demon Emperor!" Just then, Zhui Mo pointed out at the Heart Demon Emperor anxiously.

The moment everyone heard this, their gazes turned in unison. At the same time, they could not understand what he was talking about, "Brother Zhui, what do you mean?"

Looking at them, Zhui Mo could not help but sigh out exasperatedly, "Do you guys really not remember the skill that our teacher had taught us?"

Suddenly, everyone jerked alert. They then clamored excitedly, "Brother Zhui! Do you mean…MONKEY STEALS PEACHES?"

"That’s right. What else could it be? After all these years, I suppose everyone’s pretty familiar with the skill?"

"That’s right! This skill that teacher imparted to us is definitely strong!"

"Yes, yes! I met with trouble quite a few times. It was through this skill that I was able to get out unscathed."

"But, that guy’s thing is so huge! Can we do it?"

"Stop right there. Whether or not it works, we’ve got to try it out! Otherwise, by the time this guy comes out of the void fully, we’ll definitely have no more chance!" Zhui Mo took in a deep breath with worry.

"Alright then, let’s give it a shot. Everyone, take care of your safety! Lets’ go…!"

Everyone took a look at one another. Nodding their heads, they rushed out together towards that Heart Demon Emperor…



Chapter 422: A Combined Strike Of Monkey Steals Peaches

Between the Blood World and the Cangling Continent, there existed a barrier. For the Heart Demon Emperor to be able to break down the barrier was something that was supposed to be impossible.

Perhaps all of this had to do with the Blood Kill Sect.

The Heart Demon Emperor was an overlord of the Blood World, an existence that ruled over many. Just the Heart Demon Emperor alone would practically be enough to take down the entire Cangling Continent.

Unless Heaven's Will appeared and subdued the Heart Demon Emperor, no one else would be his match.

"Brother Zhui, what level have you reached for Master's Monkey Steals Peaches?" Cao Tianjiao was attacking all the way with nimble movements.

"Oh, I'm not talented. I'm only at Level 5." Zhui Mo replied calmly.

"Holy sh*t! Brother Zhui, you're too sick, aren't you? There's only a total of 6 levels to Monkey Steals Peaches, and you claim that you're not talented? Even after all these years, I'm only at level 4!" Cao Tianjiao wanted to puke blood.

The skill was really incredible indeed. However, the method of usage was a little vulgar.

"Hoho, you really think I'm powerful? Let me tell you, I'm pretty damn sure that junior sisters Liu Shuishui and Han Mengmeng are at level 6 itself. Don't you think so, Brother Xiao and Brother Zang?" Zhui Mo's knowing smile was targeted at the two of them.

"Brother Zhui, what are you talking about? I've only gotten to level 4 after working so hard. How can our two junior sisters be at a higher level in the skill than us?" Cao Tianjiao replied in disbelief. However, his brain finally realized the hidden meaning behind Zhui Mo's words as he sniggered, "Oh, your mind's really dirty now, Brother Zhui."

Xiaoze and Zang Tianhao looked at Zhui Mo, stumped. Just what had happened in the past two years for their usually quiet Zhui Mo to turn as such.

"Alright, victory shall be decided in this one strike." Zhui Mo's face was focused as his eyes sparkled. His past two years of hard work shall finally be shown right here and now.

"What are they trying to do?" Zhu Di's Missy was looking at all these people in bewilderment, unable to comprehend their actions.

"They're going to unleash the scariest skill known to mankind." Han Mengmeng was now blushing thanks to those words by Zhui Mo.

"Really?" Zhu Di's Missy was filled with anticipation. Scariest skill ever! How strong could it be?

...

"I've never seen such a humongous one. I wonder if Monkey Steals Peaches would work out?" Cao Tianjiao commented worriedly.

"No idea. We'll know once we try. You guys steal the front portion, I'll go from the back." Zhui Mo started allocating the job scope. This donger of the Heart Demon Emperor was simply way too huge, such that one person could not possibly steal his peaches alone.

"Alright…wait, no. Brother Zhui, YOU go from the front, we'll take the back." Zhu Di had wanted to agree with the arrangement. But she realized something was wrong.

Looking at everyone, Zhui Mo eventually nodded his head, "Fine…"

In the blink of an eye, these ants in the eyes of the Heart Demon Emperor had all lunged towards his crotch area. He was puzzled, wondering what these ants were up to.

'Monkey Steals Peaches!'

Suddenly, the skies changed color. The palms of everyone present glowed brightly, as though they possessed an unspeakable power.

This was a power that could disrupt the Heaven and Earth itself. Even though it was weak on its own, in the hands of a human, this was a heaven-defying power.

BOOM!

Dozens of people gripped out together at different sides of those peaches. At that instant, those bright flashes of light covered the entire world.

"So…piercing!" Zhu Di's Missy covered her eyes with a hand. That bright light was piercing like needles, causing one to barely be able to open their eyes.

"Did we do it…?" Zhui Mo and the rest were elated. They could feel a sense of surrealism.

BOOM!

In that instant, that gigantic massive object of the Heart Demon Emperor jerked. A typhoon appeared in the skies, sending everyone flying.

"Ants! How dare you guys try to humiliate your majesty!" A holler of rage rang through the skies. It was so strong that the shockwave had everyone's blood rumbling, making them spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"How can this be?" Everyone was thoroughly shocked. They had failed.

"Seems like we still can't do it. This guy is simply too big!" Zhui Mo could only feel the blood energy within his body surging as though they were about to implode. He was quite fearful, "Just how strong is this Heart Demon Emperor? To think that a single vibration could almost take us down!"

"This fella is simply too strong! If not for the fact that we possess the Titanium Grade Demon Body, we would definitely be just a slush of meat right now!" Cao Tianjiao looked at the body that was coming through the void in fear.

Everyone struggled to stand up before retreating gradually.

"Brother Xiao, are you alright?" Looking at the bloodstains at the side of Xiaoze's lips, Liu Shuishui asked in worry.

"I'm fine. But if we don't get out of this place in time, we'll definitely all die. Just what sort of a being is this Heart Demon Emperor? How is he so strong?" Xiaoze's heart was filled with fear. This wasn't something that they could handle at all.

"Teacher, just where are you!" Cao Tianjiao was on the brink of tears.

Why the hell did he keep bumping into these type of sick sh*ts? Especially someone who could be immune to that ultimate technique of Monkey Steals Peaches. Wasn't this way too much?!

Back when he was a postcelestial, he could even take down a lesser celestial with this move alone! But now that there was so many of them, how could there be no effect at all despite them unleashing it all at the same time?

Surreal! Everything was surreal!

"Tianjiao, we've really been f*cked by you, man. Of all places, why did you have to choose this place!"

"How would I know? This gorge looked like it could provide some shelter from the rain and all! To think that this kinda sick sh*t would appear here!"

"What should we do now?"

"I've got no idea! This fella has already sealed up the entire place!"

...

A red light suddenly glowed out and surrounded the entire gorge.

It was as though there was some sort of horrific existence that was hidden behind this red light as it howled malevolently.

"HAHA…! Your majesty's finally out!" Once the Heart Demon Emperor came out of the void completely, he reared his head up into the skies and howled wildly.

"Oh, the aura of humans…! This is definitely the best form of nutrients for me, the Heart Demon Emperor!" The Heart Demon Emperor's towering figure stood tall between the Heaven and Earth, as he gazed down at Cao Tianjiao and the others with pitch black eyes.

The Heart Demon Emperor was a demon of the hearts. He could lurk within the souls and recesses of any living beings while sapping at their negative energies and emotions continuously.

He had long had enough of the Blood World. The world of humans was truly the place where he was most suited.

Using the greed and lust of their hearts to lure these humans, he would then bring out every single last bit of their inner demons.

Cao Tianjiao and the others had given up completely.

Strong... Way too strong!

Just the aura of the Heart Demon Emperor alone was enough to cause them to want to give up.

"Zhu Di, I don't want to die…!" Looking at the malicious face of the Heart Demon Emperor, the Missy was pale with fright. Zhu Di's big fat body was trembling as well. Since she was about to die, she should just let loose of her inner self. She hugged her Missy tightly and comforted her, "Don't worry. I'll be here for you even if the skies topple down."

Missy looked at Zhu Di in shock. She had never expected that Zhu Di would ever hug her!

"Hais, seems like it's really a tragedy this time round. We didn't manage to wait for the arrival of teacher, but we have to face the arrival of this thing instead. I'm so sorry everyone! It's all my fault for choosing this sh*thole of a place!" Cao Tianjiao was reproaching himself.

"It's alright, Tianjiao. We don't blame you. Teacher will definitely avenge us!"

"Hais, what do you guys say? Shall we commit suicide or let this thing kill us?"

"I think we had better commit suicide. I don't want to get eaten by this thing!"

"Well, so who's gonna start first?"

"You of course! Since you suggested it, you should give us an example!"

...

"HAHAHA…! Silly humans! You want to die in front of your majesty? Not so easy! I'll have control over your bodies!" The Heart Demon Emperor laughed maniacally. These ants in his eyes could definitely cause him no troubles at all.

And just then, a bright, brilliant voice boomed through the air.

"Alright, alright, alright! Not bad! Seems like this guy's brought himself to my doorsteps…!"

Everyone's gazes turned towards the skies. With that look, Cao Tianjiao was the first to exclaim.

"TEACHER…!"

"Guys! It's alright! Teacher's here…!" Cao Tianjiao called out excitedly.

After staring blankly for a moment, everyone started screaming out.

"SAVE US, TEACHER…!!!"

...



Chapter 423: The Emperor Whose Embarassment Turned Into Rage

At times, life would work in the strangest of ways. The more one would try and scheme at obtaining something, the more it would elude him. But, once one let loose of that chase for just a little bit, things would appear and happen right before him.

Upon sensing the presence of the aura, Lin Fan thought that something major had happened. But the moment he heard this fella proclaiming himself to be the Heart Demon Emperor, he burst out laughing immediately.

To think that he had sought after this for so long, yet this Heart Demon Emperor was howling madly right in front of him.

And to think that he came all out on his own accord!

Lin Fan had roughly calculated. For him to be able to summon this Heart Demon Emperor slowly, he would need at least a minimum of 100 energy grid line chains.

Now that this Heart Demon Emperor had come out all by himself, what sort of a great encounter was this!

Discovering these types of essence blood gold mines, Lin Fan would definitely not kill the opponent. As the saying went, one could only catch a big fish if one let out a long rod. He definitely had to take the chance to grind out everything he could from these beings.

But, something bothered Lin Fan. How could this Heart Demon Emperor come out from the Blood World all on his own? Could the barrier between the Blood World and Xuanhuang World have been broken?

But it was alright, Lin Fan did not bother to confuse himself with such things. If the barrier was indeed broken, then all the merrier for him.

"Teacher…!"

Looking at these students of his, Lin Fan was pretty emotional.

Two years had gone by just like that. To think that all these kids, who were once deemed as trashes, had all grown up now.

And of course, Lin Fan felt proud. After all, these were his students!

Lin Fan placed the Heart Demon Emperor out of his mind momentarily. To him, the energy of the Heart Demon Emperor that had sealed the entire place was as thin as paper, something he could rip apart easily.

"Not bad, guys! To think that you can even survive up till now in the presence of the Heart Demon Emperor! And I even saw that gutsy move to attempt a Monkey Steals Peaches together at the Heart Demon Emperor! You guys are worthy to be called my students indeed. Not bad, not bad!" Lin Fan chuckled.

"Teacher, you're finally here! If you still hadn't arrived, we would have been doomed!" Cao Tianjiao heaved a sigh of relief. With their teacher around, what was there to be afraid of? Couldn't everyone tell how calm their teacher looked right now?

After wandering outside for the past two years, there was one thing they were certain of. The calmer a person was in the face of adversity, the stronger the power of that person was as well.

Looking at how their teacher was so calm that he practically even ignored the presence of the Heart Demon Emperor, none of them could match up to this state of a mental frame of mind.

The closer that figure approached, the more emotional everyone got.

Two years...

It had been a whole two years. To be able to see their teacher once more, the sort of feelings that were welling up right now were not something that they could express through mere words.

They were once looked down upon as trashes with worthless potential by others. Coupled with the fact that most of them came from poor backgrounds, they were practically dregs. Luckily, the Heavens took pity on them and accorded them with such a wonderful teacher.

"You're Zhu You! How are you so fat now? You're so fat that I can barely even recognize you!" Looking at the fatty before him, Lin Fan exclaimed in shock.

Zhu Di looked at her teacher excitedly. At the same time, she wanted to redeem herself, "Teacher, my name is Zhu Di…'"

"Zhu Di? I don't know who that is. I only know of a Zhu You. Are you Zhu You? If you aren't, teacher here must have recognized the wrong person then." Lin Fan replied nonchalantly.

Everyone around sniggered.

"Yes teacher, I am Zhu You." Zhu Di shrugged her head and replied helplessly. Seemed like there was no chance at all.

"Zhu You, of course you are what teacher says you are. Why must you insist on changing your own name?" Liu Miaomiao sniggered from the side.

Zhu You's Missy was stumped right now. This young man was their teacher?!

That couldn't be right, could it? Wasn't he way too young?

"Oh, two years no see and you've become quite the beauty, eh, Liu Shuishui?" Lin Fan looked over at Liu Miaomiao and commented. This used to be his most faithful student. But, ever since she met Xiaoze, she betrayed him and talked back to him. That hurtful incident was something that Lin Fan could definitely not forget.

"HAHA…Liu…Shuishui…HAHAHA…" This time round, it was Zhu You who burst out laughing.

"Teeeeeeacher! I'm called Liu Miaomiao, not Liu Shuishui! If you call me that, others would laugh at meeeeee!" Liu Miaomiao stretched her voice in a flirty tone in hopes that Lin Fan would change the name over.

"Who would dare to laugh at you? Your name IS Liu Shuishui…!" Lin Fan replied righteously. There was no way he would let these guys correct him.

The words of the Xuanhuang World were really flabbergasting. Just what sort of characters were these?

But of course, as a teacher, how could he acknowledge his mistakes? Naturally, he had to be wrong all the way and have their brains washed towards his ideals. They had to understand that there was only one simple fact in this world.

'Teacher is never wrong. All of you are wrong.'

But, looking at them carefully once more, his heart was filled with all sorts of emotions and pride. These were the students that he had trained properly indeed. Amongst all of them, the lowest cultivation state was at a pericelestial.

He was especially proud of Zhui Mo and Xiaoze. To think that they were both lesser celestials as well.

The speed of their growth was simply unbelievable.

Back then, he had not raised their potential by a significant amount. For them to make such a remarkable leap in cultivation states with that potential, they must have put in a lot of hard work diligently.

The Heart Demon Emperor came into this world with absolute dominance, bent on wreaking all sorts of havoc in this world. However, the sight before him had him totally infuriated. To think that these ants would dare to ignore him!

'ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…!' The Heart Demon Emperor howled, "Ants, how dare you not prostrate right in front of me as your majesty arrives in this world?"

Lin Fan continued to ignore the Heart Demon Emperor. It was time to rile him up for a little longer first. Seemed like there was definitely hope for his Blood Sea to reach level 9 today.

Rebirth through blood... That overpowered BUFF… He could finally fulfill it!

"Teacher, that guy seems to be really mad! Is it really alright for us to ignore him?" Cao Tianjiao had been observing the situation with the Heart Demon Emperor keenly. Looking at how wildly the Heart Demon Emperor was howling right now, he could feel a skip in his heart.

"It's alright. Let him jump about for a little longer." Lin Fan waved his hands dismissively.

With that, a strange mood set in the entire place. Lin Fan was happily in conversation with his students over casual affairs of the past two years, while these students were tossing glances at the Heart Demon Emperor from time to time.

All of them had a single question in their heart they wanted to ask.

'Teacher, can we really do this?'

...

The Heart Demon Emperor was thoroughly incensed right now. He stood there, rearing his head into the skies and howling continuously. Illusory mental demons floated and danced around him continuously, as he vented out the anger in his heart.

How dare these ants be so brazen?

He was an overlord in the Blood World! Even the Blood Demon Emperor did not dare to act so insolently before him! To think that he would be given such a nonchalant attitude after arriving in the Xuanhuang World!

This was absolutely intolerable for the Heart Demon Emperor.

"Ants! You shall pay the price for ignoring your majesty! Your majesty shall use my mental demons to take over your hearts and rule over all of you guys for all eternity!"

BOOM!

With a single stomp of the Heart Demon Emperor, the Earth shook violently. That massive force that erupted threatened to destroy the entire world.

"Ants! To force the arm of your majesty is to cause the entire world's destruction! All of you shall know fear beyond your world! You have completely riled your majesty, someone none of you can afford to offend!"

"You've simply gone too overboard! TOO MUCH, YOU ANTS…!"

'Hais…'

Lin Fan sighed, expressing his exasperation. Was this Heart Demon Emperor truly an idiot? Why the hell was he nagging all day all night over there? Couldn't he just rush at him and strike out? Just force a fight or something man.

Was it because he was bored silly in the Blood World and he was looking for people to chat with?

Looking at the state the Heart Demon Emperor was in, Lin Fan was startled. To think that he was not even comparable to that Blood Demon Emperor. No matter what, at the very least, the Blood Demon Emperor had found something to cover his groin area with. But, this Heart Demon Emperor had come out completely nude! Wasn't he afraid that he would scare people off like that?

"Alright, Heart Demon Emperor, stop howling now. Since you can't wait for it that badly, Yours Truly shall entertain you then." Lin Fan spoke up.

The moment everyone heard this, they heaved a sigh of relief.

No matter what, the pressure on them was immense, with the Heart Demon Emperor close to them.



Chapter 424: Extremely Violent and Gory

"HAHA…!" The Heart Demon Emperor started laughing out manically at this point. Those pitch-black claws that ripped through the void pointed at Lin Fan, "Your majesty has traversed over all of the Blood World, and yet no one has dared to be so insolent towards me. Ant, who gave you the guts to act so impertinently in front of your majesty!"

"Cut the crap. Just come at me first." Lin Fan disappeared from where he was instantaneously and darted towards the Heart Demon Emperor.

"Do you guys think that teacher can win?" A student asked.

"Isn’t that obvious? Look at how calm teacher is. If he weren’t confident, could we have chatted all the way till now?" Cao Tianjiao tossed him a side glance.

"That’s true. If teacher had no confidence, he shouldn’t have been so relaxed."

"Watch and learn. This battle is something that we’ll probably be hard-pressed to find in an entire lifetime. This will be helpful for our future growth." Xiaoze said with a focused gaze. This was the most anticipated battle for him. A battle between powerful beings would definitely provide a ton of useful experiences to learn from.

"Seems like this should be a battle of the titans." Zhu You’s Missy suddenly spoke out.

"Missy, you can tell too?" Zhu You asked.

"Yes. Even though my cultivation state isn’t that high, no matter what, I’m the Missy of a great family. I’ve got some general knowledge about stuff like these." Missy said calmly. That panicked look on her face from earlier on was no longer existent.

"Missy is a smart person indeed. My thoughts are the exact same as yours. This battle will definitely be a battle of the titans." Zhu You nodded from the side.

After being her Missy’s bodyguard for two years, there was no way Zhu You could disagree with her Missy. At the same time, she knew of her Missy’s character. She definitely had to agree with her Missy’s words. Otherwise, the latter would definitely get mad.

"It’s been two years. Finally, I’ve got the chance to see teacher go at it. I’ve got to watch seriously and not miss out even on a single bit."

In the eyes of everyone present, their teacher’s battle with the Heart Demon Emperor would definitely be a battle that would rip the world and Heavens apart.

But they had already prepared themselves mentally to take heart into learning. They would be certain to keep the memories of this battle deep in their hearts, so that they could recall it from time to time. That would definitely be beneficial.

...

"Heart Demon Emperor, your little brother Blood Demon Emperor was beaten to a pulp by Yours Truly. And YOU alone dare to come to be so insolent before me right now? I’ll make sure you regret ever stepping foot into this place today." Lin Fan replied naturally. That calm gaze of his dazzled with a sparkling brilliance.

The Nine Five Legendary Brick appeared in his palms stealthily.

"HAHA! Ant! How dare you even continue to be so insolent even at this very moment? You truly don’t know what it means to die. Today, your majesty shall show you the horrors of aggravating someone like me!" The Heart Demon Emperor sent out a massive punch after being enraged by Lin Fan’s words.

This punch was boundless like the seas and covered the entire sky. Mental demons danced all over the skies, as though the entire world was devoured by this single punch.

Lin Fan’s students were finally shaken.

"Take a look! The Heart Demon Emperor’s punch is way too strong! Could this be the mental demon that’s mentioned in the legends?"

"It’s too strong! Just that aura alone leaves one completely defenseless!"

"Teacher is teacher indeed! To think that he still has no fear in the face of such a punch! Eh? What’s that red colored object in teacher’s hand?"

"That object looks pretty strange. There’s no aura from it at all! But anything that comes from our teacher must definitely be extraordinary! Seems like teacher’s finally ready to get serious and deal with the Heart Demon Emperor!"

"Should we go up and help? Wouldn’t it be too dangerous to let our teacher go alone?"

"Go up? Are you out of your mind? More like we’ll just create more of a mess for him!"

"That’s right! This is teacher’s way of giving us an experiential learning! If we miss this opportunity of a lifetime, you’ll definitely regret it forever!"

At this moment, Lin Fan’s students all gathered their attention and glared unwaveringly at the situation up ahead. In their eyes, this battle would definitely benefit them a lot.

...

Lin Fan looked at the Heart Demon Emperor and his lips curled into a smile. If this were a year ago, this might have been quite the challenge. However, something like this could come to him and get smacked down any day now.

There was nothing unusual about that Nine Five Legendary Brick in his hand. Without even a glow on it, it just looked like any other normal object.

The Heart Demon Emperor did not pay any heed to Lin Fan. His malevolent face curled into a grin.

‘ROAR…!’

With that roar, his punch took down an entire mountain.

‘A brick to the head!’

In that instant, the Heart Demon Emperor’s face changed. Lin Fan had disappeared from the spot! But when he reappeared once more, he was right beside the head of the Heart Demon Emperor!

BAM!

Just as the Heart Demon Emperor was about to retaliate, he felt that red thing slapping on his head.

BOOM!

There was not even a single bit of defense, nor was there a single bit of preparation. In that instant, the towering colossal figure of the Heart Demon Emperor collapsed down onto the floor.

‘Hais…time to work.’ With that, Lin Fan summoned his Faceless Sky Demon and tossed to it his Nine Five Legendary Brick.

"Alright, listen up! Slap his head after every one minute!"

The Faceless Sky Demon floated beside the Heart Demon Emperor’s head gently and nodded its heads blankly.

...

At that moment, the entire sky fell silent.

Those students who had made their preparations to observe were now dumbfounded. That insanely strong Heart Demon Emperor was done for just like that?!

"That…who was the one who said that this would be a battle of the titans?" Cao Tianjiao asked with a stumped look.

Xiaoze, who had focused all his attention, blushed as he turned his gaze around at everyone else. Zhu You and her Missy felt an invisible hand slapping at their faces thoroughly.

"General knowledge of a Missy of a great family indeed... the battle of the titans indeed..."

Holy f*ckamoly! Victory was practically decided in a single second!

No one was prepared for this at the least bit!

"I didn’t say it!" Zhu You shook her head immediately. How could she have said something as such?

"Zhu You, weren’t you the one who declared that at first?" Missy turned her head around and glared at Zhu You.

"Yes..." Zhu You was stunned before she acknowledged reluctantly. Seemed like she was the scapegoat once more. They had thought it through really thoroughly earlier on. Most people had thought that this would be a battle of the titans. But reality had taught them a great lesson.

What sort of a battle of the titans was this? This was practically their teacher just having fun of his own!

...

Lin Fan stood on the body of the Heart Demon Emperor at this moment and rubbed at his own chin. He then took out the Eternal Axe from his storage.

"Heart Demon Emperor, you can’t blame me for your bad luck today. After all, one cannot refuse gifts that are sent right to their doorsteps." Lin Fan said calmly before slamming down the Eternal Axe at the five limbs of the Heart Demon Emperor.

Left and Right Arms.

All three of his legs.

Even chopping the head off of this guy shouldn’t kill him.

...

"Guys, what’s teacher doing!" Everyone looked into the distance and saw their teacher chopping down at the body of the Heart Demon Emperor with his axe.

"Isn’t our teacher dismembering him?! That’s too scary!" Cao Tianjiao’s face was stunned.

"To think that our teacher would have a fetish as such. Seems like it’s definitely anyone’s misfortune to be our teacher’s enemy!"

"Hais, I can’t even bear to look at this! The way the blood is spraying out… Holy f*ck…"

Everyone was stunned right now. The scene before them was way too violent and gory. But to Lin Fan, this was the happiest moment ever.

Seemed like he was going to feel real good this time round!

Hehehe, that level 9 of Blood Sea would be going nowhere…



Chapter 425: The Extremely Cruel Lin Fan

Lin Fan had not expected this to go this easily. After all, the Heart Demon Emperor was much stronger than the Blood Demon Emperor, with superior abilities as well.

In the hearts of every living being, the mental demons sapped and devoured them from within, before eventually luring men towards that dark, dark abyss.

"All of you, come over." Looking at that raised up the crotch of the Heart Demon Emperor, Lin Fan was just about to chop it off when he recalled something.

At times, the process of recycling trash had to be complete.

"Teacher’s calling us...!" Looking at their teacher beckoning towards them, all of the students were bewildered.

They wondered what their teacher was up to.

But as long as their teacher was around, they naturally doubted nothing and scurried over.

"Teacher, what have you called us over for?" Looking at the fallen body of the Heart Demon Emperor and their teacher standing on its body imposingly, everyone asked courteously.

"What levels are your Monkey Steals Peaches at?" Lin Fan asked.

Was being a teacher an easy task for Lin Fan? Definitely not. But when he was having fun, he should definitely take his students along for the ride.

Everyone looked at one another, not understanding the meaning of their teacher’s question.

"Teacher, I’m on level 4." Cao Tianjiao started with a little pride in his answer.

"Level 5." Zhui Mo replied casually. There was nothing to be proud of. After all, he couldn’t even compare with the levels of his junior sisters. What was there to be proud about?

"Level 3." Xiaoze shook his head in embarrassment. At the same time, he was being drawn in slightly by the body of the Heart Demon Emperor.

Now that he was so close to the Heart Demon Emperor, he truly realized how massive the Heart Demon Emperor was. Even standing at a side, he could feel the horrific aura that was emanating from the Heart Demon Emperor.

"Teacher, I’m at level 6!" Han Mengmeng replied.

Lin Fan nodded his head as they replied one by one. However, after hearing the levels of Han Mengmeng and Liu Shuishui, he was shocked, with a look of disbelief.

But soon after, he gave off a knowing smile. In that instant, his mind had finally understood what was happening. Of course, these two would be at max level after stealing peaches day and night.

The moment he cast those knowing gazes to Xiaoze and Zang Tianhao, both of them lowered their heads in embarrassment. Seemed like their shameful acts had been…exposed.

"Alright, other than Han Mengmeng and Liu Shuishui, the rest of you head up to the dong of the Heart Demon Emperor and give it a good tug! Tug till you reach your utmost potentials!" Lin Fan gave off the orders.

The skill that he had imparted them, Monkey Steals Peaches, was a skill that couldn’t be trained using normal methods. It wasn’t something that could level up if one worked hard at cultivating. This was a skill that required actual combat experience.

And of course, the tougher the opponent, the higher the mastery one could obtain.

Now, other than the two girls present, none of the others had reached the peak level yet. Now that the chance was right in their faces, it would be such a waste to give up such an opportunity.

"Teacher, are we really going at it?" Zhu You’s face was stumped.

Taking a closer inspection, the dong of the Heart Demon Emperor was simply too huge! It was so big that it was almost disgusting!

"Of course, DUH! With such a good set of training materials here, if you were to miss it right now, you’d definitely regret it!" Lin Fan replied.

"I’ll start first…!" Xiaoze who had always wanted to turn stronger struck first.

‘Monkey Steals Peaches!’

A straightforward move without any nuances to it…

At the same time, Xiaoze could feel some energy surging through his Monkey Steals Peaches, as though it was about to breakthrough its bottleneck at any moment.

"Me too…!" Cao Tianjiao followed up.

"Me three!"

One by one, under Lin Fan’s heartened gazes, they continued on this ruthless path of cultivation making use of the Heart Demon Emperor.

And course, with a mechanical timing, the Faceless Sky Demon slapped down on the head of the Heart Demon Emperor every single minute without a second more or less.

‘Hais…’

Seeing this, Lin Fan could not help but sigh helplessly. What a sad life this Heart Demon Emperor was leading. Not only was he being trained up the moment he came out, he was being mutilated and tortured badly.

"Teacher, I’m at my peak level!"

"Me too…!"

...

By now, everyone had mastered their Monkey Steals Peaches to their highest possible level. This was absolutely the best feeling ever!

"Alright, that’ll do! All of you, head to one side. Once this Heart Demon Emperor wakes up, he’s definitely going to go ham." Now that all his students had mastered their Monkey Steals Peaches, Lin Fan waved his hand and dismissed them off.

After all of them left, Lin Fan took up his Eternal Axe and heaved in a deep breath. He then aimed it at the groin of the Heart Demon Emperor and slammed down.

‘PSCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!’

A gigantic ‘heavenly pillar’ flew up into the air. In fact, it even twitched for a moment.

Sweeping his robes, Lin Fan kept that particular part into his storage.

‘Smelt…!’

As the Heaven and Earth opened up, Lin Fan tossed in everything. Both arms, both legs, that ‘heavenly pillar’, the head... Everything was thrown within.

‘Ding…congratulations on smelting.’

‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining Heart Demon Emperor’s Essence Blood. 15 drops.’

‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining Heart Demon Emperor’s Essence Blood. 20 drops.’

‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining Heart Demon Emperor’s Essence Blood. 13 drops.’

...

Hearing these notifications of the system, Lin Fan was more than elated. Seemed like the level up was set in stone this time round for sure!

‘Devour…’

With that, Lin Fan tossed all the essence bloods into his tummy and started churning his Blood Sea. Instantly, the essence blood turned into a warm source of energy that made its way into his body slowly.

‘Ding…congratulations on leveling Blood Sea.’

‘Ding…Blood Sea Level 8.’

‘Soon…soon! Give me more!’

Lin Fan churned the essence blood of the Heart Demon Emperor relentlessly. The blood within his body was repeatedly boiling right now, as though it was a fiery dragon that was about to burst out. This was a sign of it shedding its skin.

Ever since the Firmament Blood had entered Lin Fan, he had not felt or sensed anything unusual about it. Hence, he had practically given up all hope on it. However, right now, he could sense an unknown energy that was rumbling up the Firmament Blood as well! He was definitely elated right now.

Even though it was just a little bit of presence, it gave Lin Fan infinite hope.

BOOM!

The blood dragon within his body that was formed by the blood aura had slammed itself against an internal door in his body, causing that loud booming sound. However, that door only shook gently, without anything being followed up.

"Holy sh*t. Must it really be so ruthless? To think that I would be stuck in such an awkward position even after using up so much essence blood of the Heart Demon Emperor!" Lin Fan frowned with displeasure.

This situation was similar to when someone was on the edge and was about to shoot, yet someone would use a rubber band to give the head a tight grip, preventing the shoot. One would have no choice but to hold it back in.

"Just what sort of skill is teacher cultivating?"

"I’ve got no idea, but that aura was simply way too fearsome!"

‘Teacher is teacher indeed. That state he’s in is definitely something that we can never hope to achieve.’

...

Upon opening his eyes, a blood glow shimmered and disappeared as Lin Fan’s brows creased.

"It’s not enough. Seems like it’ll be hard on you now, Heart Demon Emperor." Looking at the body of the Heart Demon Emperor, Lin Fan could not help it either. He wondered how much more essence blood could be stored within the body of this Heart Demon Emperor.

If he still couldn’t succeed after this, then he would have to think of some other way to do it.



Chapter 426: I Know What I Must Do

Looking at the Heart Demon Emperor, who was being skinned by him like a piece of roast pork, Lin Fan did feel a little guilty, and could barely do it anymore. But oh well, one might as well forget it. Since the Heart Demon Emperor would still continue to deem him as an enemy no matter what from this day forth, what harm would it do to just chop off yet a few more parts. No problemo!

After all, the Heart Demon Emperor was an overlord of the Blood World, and his sustenance depended on demons of the heart.

That made him practically immortal. As long as there were demons in the hearts of living beings, the Heart Demon Emperor would never cease to exist.

The Blood World was a place filled with sinister and devious beings. As such, the heart demons had already been laid out all across the entire Blood World. This was the Heart Demon Emperor’s first visit to the Xuanhuang World. Hence, he had yet to plant any heart demons within the souls of the humans here.

Therefore, if Lin Fan were to kill the Heart Demon Emperor right now, the Heart Demon Emperor could not revive within the Xuanhuang World, but he would reappear within the Blood World instead

By now, the portions that Lin Fan had chopped off were shrouded by a black mist, slowly regenerating.

In fact, this ability was similar to Lin Fan’s Rebirth through Appendages right now. Both of them made use of one’s innate energy source to regenerate the defects of one’s body.

Lin Fan wondered if the Heart Demon Emperor still had any essence blood left. At the same time, he wondered how much essence blood these regenerated limbs would provide.

At this moment, the body of the Heart Demon Emperor was perfect as new once more.

Lifting the Eternal Axe, the brilliance of the axe gleamed through the skies. The poor Heart Demon Emperor had his limbs completely severed once more.

‘Heaven and Earth Smelt, smelt!’

‘Ding…congratulations on smelting.’

‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining Heart Demon Emperor’s Essence Blood. 5 drops.’

‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining Heart Demon Emperor’s Essence Blood. 4 drops.’

...

"Holy sh*t! Seems like I truly shouldn’t bear too much hope! This Heart Demon Emperor has really been squeezed dry!""

The collection this time round only amounted to a bit more than twenty drops of essence blood. Was this enough to break through that bottleneck barrier?

Lin Fan was silent for a moment. Suddenly, his eyes sparkled. ‘That’s it…!’

It had been an entire year.

The Blood Demon Emperor must have healed up quite a bit by now! If he were to pull that guy out for a good chopping this time round, perhaps that might stand a greater chance!

At the thought of this, Lin Fan chuckled.

Seemed like it was almost a crime for one’s brains to be this smart.

Patting his storage, the Blood Gates came out. Floating in the air, those doors scrawled with blood symbols gave off a frightening feeling.

The students who were standing at a distance were shocked by the appearance of this thing. The Blood Gates gave them a chilling sensation.

"What’s that stone door! That aura that’s emanated is extremely creepy!"

"No idea, but teacher brought it out so I suppose he’s going to do something with it?"

"Aiyo! Teacher is teacher indeed! Even the things he takes out are things that we can never understand!"

If these students had not met with their teacher once more, they might be feeling pretty proud of themselves. After all, they had made quite a substantial improvement within these two years. Some of them obtained opportunities, while others had experienced things that most would not have seen in their lifetime.

However, every single last bit of pride they had right now was totally smashed. Compared to their teacher, they were still like frogs in a well.

‘Tribute!’

‘Come on out, Blood Demon Emperor!’

Instantly, the energy grid line chains flew out of Lin Fan’s storage one by one. They coiled around in the skies before swimming into that abyssal underworld like a dragon.

At times, Lin Fan wondered who it was that was actually receiving these tributes. But he knew that it was not the Heaven’s Will for sure.

BOOM!

In that instant, those gigantic doors slammed open. Within that blood red Blood World, a bone-chilling aura was emitting outwards.

"Who is it that summons me, the Emperor?"

Before the Blood Demon Emperor had even appeared, that mighty and imposing voice was ringing out through Cangling Continent. From those Blood Gates, a gigantic scaly leg stepped out from within. The size of this leg was comparable to that of the Heart Demon Emperor.

Lin Fan’s students could only watch everything with a stunned look.

They had realized that yet another frightening existence was about to emerge from within those Blood Gates.

They wondered about the motives behind their teacher’s summoning of this terrifying existence from within the Blood World. Could it be that the Heart Demon Emperor was too strong, that teacher needed to summon this being to suppress the Heart Demon Emperor?!

This was the only reason they could think up of.

"It’s me, the Heart Demon Emperor! Long time no see, come on out!" Looking at the Blood Gates, Lin Fan sniggered.

"Okay…"

The Blood Demon Emperor had been living an easy life these days. Ever since he was tortured by that horrifying fella one year ago, he had understood the meaning of life.

One had better be a good and humble demon, keeping a low profile.

Therefore, each time someone summoned him through tribute, the Blood Demon Emperor would only just casually send out a single arm to take down everything, without putting on too much of a show.

Just as he was about to relax, he felt someone summoning him once more.

Of course, this had the Blood Demon Emperor pretty elated. After all, this was the type of life that he wanted.

Furthermore, this fella seemed to have provided a large amount of tribute this time around just to summon him. That made the Blood Demon Emperor especially excited.

There was finally another chance for him to experience the glory of the outside world once more. At the same time, he could finally show his glorious demeanor to the rest of the world.

He wanted the masses to revere and respect him!

Each time someone summoned him, those items would always be forcefully absorbed by the mysterious unknowns. However, this didn’t dampen the mood of the Blood Demon Emperor at all. Each time he exited the Blood World, he would enter a brand new world of experiences.

"Your majesty is here. Puny ant, where is your enemy?" The Blood Demon Emperor’s body had appeared out of into the Cangling Continent entirely. That towering colossal figure looked down upon the entire world. That mighty imposing look on his face revealed an intoxicated smile.

Indeed…the air outside here was fresh indeed.

The Blood Demon Emperor was extremely excited. He wondered what sort of enemy he would encounter this time round.

At the same time, how should he take down the enemy to show his true prowess? What should he do so that these puny beings would remember him deep within their hearts?

But at that moment, the Blood Demon Emperor heard a familiar voice. His heart skipped a beat. This voice was familiar yet foreign. It had been a long time since he had heard this voice.

"Hey, why aren’t you speaking, Blood Demon Emperor?"

That familiar and foreign voice rang out once more.

That resolute heart of the Blood Demon Emperor slowly recalled who this voice’s owner was. He began to break down…

"I-it can’t be, right...?" There was a void of ominous feeling within his heart right now.

In order to confirm the suspicions in his heart, the Blood Demon Emperor looked up into the skies. Taking in a deep breath, those contemptuous eyes slowly looked down.

And that single look was all it took.

That single ant-sized figure was waving to him.

"Heya! Blood Demon Emperor…!" Lin Fan was shouting and beaming brightly.

The Blood Demon Emperor raised his head once more. That imposing aura was no longer there anymore.

His expression was dazed.

Blood began to well up at the corner of his eyes.

A cold breeze blew by…

Two drops of blood tears dropped down onto the ground.

The Blood Demon Emperor knew what he had to do at this moment.

After all, he had already seen the tortured state of the Heart Demon Emperor lying at the side...



Chapter 427: A Wise Man Recognizes His Circumstances

"Why?" Looking up at the Heavens, the Blood Demon Emperor was filled with a sense of helplessness. Just what sort of sins had he committed to meet with this man once more?

Until now, he still couldn’t erase the scars of that traumatic incident a year earlier.

That was the saddest thing that had ever happened in his entire life. He thought that he would be spared from the torments after naming out the Heart Demon Emperor. But to think that it would be his turn once more after this terrifying man was done with the Heart Demon Emperor!

"Heavens…HEAVENS…! EARTH…! WHAT HAVE I EVER DONE TO YOU GUYS? WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO ME?" The Blood Demon Emperor was in tears. His heart was filled with sorrow.

If any being from the Blood World would have seen the state the Blood Demon Emperor is in right now, they would definitely be stunned. Was this still the mighty and imposing overlord of the Blood World? Where was his dignity? Where was his magnificence?

Was this still the Emperor they had feared and respected? Why the hell was he scared silly by just a puny human?

The Blood Demon Emperor took in a deep breath slowly. Sometimes, it was better for one to know their place.

Plop.

That mighty towering body had collapsed into a kneel on the ground. Those mighty kneecaps were bent right in front of Lin Fan. He had completely submitted and given in to Lin Fan.

That imposing, dominating demeanor wasn’t there anymore. All that replaced it was a sorrowful and melancholic look.

"Big bro…" The Blood Demon Emperor lowered his esteemed head. Those malicious eyes were trying their best to switch over to a gentle look as well.

In front of this human, the Blood Demon Emperor had given up completely. There was no need to resist at all.

The Blood Demon Emperor wasn’t someone who was afraid of a powerful opponent. In fact, death didn’t faze him either. If one could die easily, then he could accept it as well.

However, the main thing was that this man before him was simply a beast! He could definitely take him down easily, but nooooooo… he just wanted to torment him!

Chopping his head off!

Chopping his legs off!

Chopping his arms off!

Bloody hell!

He even chopped his groin off!

Who else in the world could be this ruthless and cruel?

Lin Fan’s students were entirely stumped by now.

To think that this powerful and frightening being would just kneel down before Lin Fan before their very eyes. Not only that, he was calling their teacher big bro!

Everything was way too surreal.

Just what sort of an existence was their teacher? How could such a horrifying being even submit before their teacher?

Respect…

The respect that these students had towards their teacher had now pierced through a whole new threshold.

This was the strongest backing they could ever hope for!

"Zhu You, your teacher is so strong!" Zhu You’s Missy’s face was already shocked earlier. However, upon the sight of this horrifying titan kneeling before Zhu You’s teacher, she was entirely flabbergasted.

"That’s right…" Zhu You was the same as well. She was deeply shocked by the scene before her, as though she could not believe everything before her very eyes.

Zhu You gave herself a good pinching to make sure that everything was real.

...

"Oh, Blood Demon Emperor…!" Looking at the actions of the Blood Demon Emperor, Lin Fan was speechless.

This was such an obedient attitude! He wasn’t even used to it!

If the Blood Demon Emperor had howled madly in anger, Lin Fan would have chopped down without hesitation. But now that the Blood Demon Emperor was behaving himself so nicely, Lin Fan did not even know where to start with.

After all, for an overlord of his position to be kneeling down before Lin Fan, wouldn’t it be overboard if Lin Fan were to just chop this guy apart just like that?

"Big bro, just call me Little Blood! That’ll do!" The Blood Demon Emperor’s heart was literally bleeding right now. No matter how many years it had been nor the events they had encountered, humans were just like puny lifeforms to them.

Even a greater celestial full cultivation being was nothing but a fat ant in front of them.

But to think that this human right here would be this strong... Way too strong! And not only was he strong, he was a sadist as well!

He was more of a demon than they demons themselves could be!

"Oh, Little Blood…!" Lin Fan intended to negotiate with the Blood Demon Emperor. After all, it wouldn’t be too nice for him as well to get nothing in return after summoning this fella out with all those tributes.

"Big bro, say no more. I understand…" The Blood Demon Emperor replied hurriedly. His body’s blood began to rumble as the essence blood floated up into the sky drop by drop.

"Big bro! These are offerings of your Little Blood right here!" The Blood Demon Emperor’s heart was clearer than anyone else. He knew that this guy was out for his essence blood.

Even though essence blood was precious, so what? Could he even refuse?

If he were to refuse, he would be chopped up. By then, not only would he be losing essence blood, he would be chopped for nothing as well. Looking at the tragic state of the Heart Demon Emperor right now, the Blood Demon Emperor was rooted in fear.

After contemplating for a moment, his best course of action was definitely to give up his essence blood.

Looking at the essence blood in the sky, Lin Fan’s face was stunned. Since when had the Blood Demon Emperor turned this tactful? To think that this guy would even understand his wishes before he had even made his request!

Indeed, a wise man submitted to his current circumstances.

After making a quick count, there was a total of 56 drops of essence blood.

Seemed like the Blood Demon Emperor had given it his all, not daring to hold back at all.

One year ago, the Blood Demon Emperor nearly suffered from anemia. Even though he had almost fully recovered after the entire year, how strong could he be?

Evidently, the Blood Demon Emperor truly gave it his all without withholding any single thing.

Floating in the air, Lin Fan’s tiny palms patted the shoulders of the Blood Demon Emperor.

"Hais, good lad. Good lad! Little Blood, seems like I wasn’t wrong about you! I promise you, I’ll never summon you out again. Also, if anyone dares to bully you in the future, let me know! I’ll summon him and take revenge for you!" Lin Fan felt that he shouldn’t go overboard right now. Since this guy was being so understanding, it would be unacceptable if he took too much advantage of this fella right here. Even he himself would despise himself by then.

"Big bro! I’m so grateful…! THANK YOU!" The Blood Demon Emperor broke down crying. These weren’t the tears of gratitude. This was a feeling of being released from captivity.

To the Blood Demon Emperor, that one single statement was more than enough: ‘I’ll never summon you out again’.

The Blood Demon Emperor was thoroughly touched by those words.

From here on forth, his life was finally safe!

He could finally live a peaceful life within the Blood World!

Sweeping his robes, Lin Fan kept all the essence blood.

"Right. Let me ask you... How did the Heart Demon Emperor come over here directly?" Lin Fan suddenly asked.

"That’s impossible, big bro! The Blood World is completely separate from this world! We can only come over if there are tributes. Even though the Heart Demon Emperor is strong, there’s no way he can break the barrier just like that."

"Oh…" Lin Fan nodded his head. Seemed like the Blood Demon Emperor didn’t know what was going on either.

"But that’s right, big bro... There WAS indeed something that happened within the Blood World recently. It seems as though someone managed to communicate through to the core of the Blood World. But for now, there doesn’t seem to be anything weird that’s happening because of it." The Blood Demon Emperor added hurriedly as he just recalled it.

Communicating with the source of the Blood World?

That was strange indeed.

"Alright, then I’ve got nothing for you anymore. Take this Heart Demon Emperor back with you as well. I’ll leave him in your care from now on. Don’t allow him to come out here ever again." Lin Fan ordered.

"Yes, big bro! Don’t worry! I guarantee that there’ll be no issues!" Upon hearing these words, the Blood Demon Emperor was elated beyond words.

He could finally leave this place!

To the Blood Demon Emperor, this place was simply way too dangerous!

The Blood Demon Emperor had not done anything after coming out other than offering his essence blood. What a misfortune that he had to lose so much essence blood at one go!

But if this could save him from the future torment, then everything would definitely be worth it!

...



Chapter 428: Peasants Are Always Plotting Against The Emperor

The Blood Demon Emperor dragged the decrepit remains of the Heart Demon Emperor out of the place. Once the Heart Demon Emperor woke up, the Blood World would definitely be filled with a tragic howl for sure.

And just as Lin Fan predicted, after the Heart Demon Emperor woke up and took a look at his pitiful state, he was entirely stumped. Not only was his body’s essence blood sucked dry, he didn’t even know what the hell happened! The more he thought about it, the more confused he was.

And with that, the Heart Demon Emperor, who was in charge of all the heart demons, had a heart demon spawned within his own heart as well.

Of course, that was Lin Fan’s fault, down to the very last bit.

...

Looking at the 56 drops of essence blood from the Blood Demon Emperor, Lin Fan’s lips curled into a grin.

This was an exhilarating affair!

The 9th level of Blood Sea, Rebirth through Blood, should definitely show its glory once more in the hands of Lin Fan!

‘Swallow…!’

These little droplets of essence blood contained a violent form of energy. All of these were the powers of the Blood Demon Emperor. At the same time, there were a ton of negative emotions that were mixed within.

If any normal person were to consume these, they would be overwhelmed by the power, and implode from within. Even if they didn’t implode, they would definitely be taken over by all the negative emotions and feelings.

After all, the Blood World was an evil and sinister place.

Even though the Blood Demon Emperor might have prostrated before Lin Fan, one would be a fool to take the Blood Demon Emperor as a wimp.

After all, any character that could be an overlord within the Blood World would definitely be far from ordinary. In fact, just that mix of negative energy would be enough to drag one into the depths of the abyss.

If not for the fact that he had the system, even Lin Fan wouldn’t dare to devour all the essence blood at one go. In fact, there was even the essence blood of the Heart Demon Emperor to be taken into account.

In that instant…

Lin Fan’s blood aura rumbled massively, as a tuft of blood colored mist spread out from his body. A massive surge of blood energy burst out from Lin Fan’s body, coiling around the world.

Streams of warm energy gathered together until eventually, they formed a massive ocean of energy.

‘Time to give it one more shot. It must definitely work!’

He could feel the door of entry towards the 9th level of Blood Sea being loosened! Once he could achieve the 9th level, he would definitely be truly immortal!

With this amount of essence blood, if he still failed to succeed, then he might truly have to spend some time accumulating further.

BOOM!

In that instant, a blood colored dragon coiled itself around Lin Fan’s body. The blood within his body had boiled to a maximum point, and was rumbling continuously.

BOOM!

The combined essence blood of the Heart Demon Emperor and the Blood Demon Emperor churned immensely, producing a massive amount of energy. This surge of energy slammed at the door repeatedly.

The doors started opening…

‘Yes…!’

Just then, the void around Lin Fan started to ripple. A black robed figure appeared, emanating a strong blood aura across the sky.

This aura was familiar, as though Lin Fan had felt it before somewhere.

But right now, Lin Fan did not have the time to bother about this other party. His body was at a limit where it was ready to breakthrough! He definitely could not waste this opportunity! Success depended on this moment!

At the same time, Lin Fan was relieved. He was almost very nearly misled by Blood Sea.

To think that the difference in leveling between 8 and 9 was so great!

If not for the fact that he had summoned the Blood Demon Emperor as well, he might not be able to get to this state with just the essence blood of the Heart Demon Emperor alone!

"Take your time and breakthrough. I am not an enemy." The figure that was floating in the sky told Lin Fan calmly.

Lin Fan shut his eyes gently and focused all his attention on the activity on hand.

BOOM!

A gigantic explosion imploded out from within Lin Fan’s body.

‘Complete…’

Lin Fan was overwhelmed with joy. It was as though the blood within his body had been given a thorough upgrade! With the infusion of the essence into his bloodstream at this moment, it increased the activity of his blood flow.

‘Ding…congratulations on leveling Blood Sea.’

‘Ding…congratulations on comprehending Blood Sea’s Rebirth through Blood state.’

...

At that moment, Lin Fan could feel an unspeakable joy within his heart. He had finally succeeded! With this, there was a greater sense of guarantee about his body from here on forth! At the same time, the thing that gave him an even greater sense of excitement was the fact that level 9 was not the final state of Blood Sea! Seemed like there was an even greater state that awaited him!

All of this served to demonstrate the unlimited potential of the system that he possessed…!

The figure in the void creased her brows. She could feel a terrifying source of power emanating from Lin Fan. This power was mysterious and strange. She wondered what sort of skill or art he was cultivating for him to produce such an incredible usage of it.

Lin Fan did not continue to delve into his state right now. He stood up and looked straight at the figure in the sky.

"Who are you?" Lin Fan asked.

"It’s been a long time since we’ve last met. Could it be that you’ve forgotten about me?" The black robed person pulled down her robe, finally revealing her true features.

"It’s you…!" Looking at the person before her, Lin Fan’s memory was jolted. Wasn’t this the woman who had paid his entrance fee into the Dead Demon City?

He could already tell that she was hiding her true abilities back then. To think that she was this strong?! Wasn’t this person in Dongling Continent? How the hell did she arrive at Cangling Continent?!

If not for the fact that there was only a single Supreme Being Token, he would have thought that she had a token as well!

"Well, allow me to reintroduce myself then. Blood Kill Sect’s 12th Level Master, Ye Han."

"Oh, so you’re from Blood Kill Sect. I do have some sort of a connection with you guys I suppose." Lin Fan chuckled. At the same time, he used his system to check it out carefully.

However, the results of his check had him creasing his brows.

"You broke through the barrier of Dongling Continent?" Lin Fan was getting warier by the second.

Dongling Continent had a barrier where no one could go beyond the cultivation state of a greater celestial full cultivation. However, this Ye Han before him had already broken through that limit and was an utmost celestial as well.

"Haven’t you broken through the Heavenly Barrier too?" Ye Han gave off an alluring and charming smile. However, the blood aura that was emanated from her was chilling and cold. This was definitely a ruthless person right here. She wasn’t someone to be underestimated.

"What do you want with me?" Lin Fan gave her a casual glance. He did not want to get too close to this person.

"I seek a cooperation." Ye Han smiled gently, giving off a feeble impression. However, all of this was a façade. If anyone would dare to look down on her…chances were, they wouldn’t even know how they died.

"Cooperation? I think not. I’m used to being alone." Lin Fan rejected her straight up.

"No, for the safety of Xuanhuang World, I THINK that you should cooperate with me. At the same time, I need a helper." Ye Han looked at Lin Fan.

"Wait…your body. You have the stench of the Blood World…" Suddenly, Lin Fan’s face changed. His sharp senses immediately picked up something off with this Ye Han.

Ye Han giggled softly, "You’re different indeed. To think that you could even sense that."

"Oh, I finally get it. You did not break down the barrier of Dongling Continent. You’ve entered the Blood World and communicated with the source. Using the power of the Blood World, you broke through the original cultivation state of Dongling Continent. At the same time, the reason why you’re able to come here is due to you traveling through the Blood World."

At this point, Lin Fan finally understood. This was the reason why the Blood Demon Emperor would say that someone had managed to communicate through to the core of the Blood World. It was all the doing of this Ye Han.

"That’s right. And I’m sincere about working together with you. Since you’ve already guessed most of it, I won’t continue with that. The current Heaven’s Will of Dongling Continent is no longer the original Heaven’s Will. That is something that I’m sure you can already feel. However, the reason why I’m here is to discuss with you about something that concerns Dongling Continent." Ye Han continued.

"Go on, I’m listening." Lin Fan replied.

Ye Han’s brows creased. This guy had no sense of danger at all. But they could just forget that. Right now, this was the only person within the entire Dongling Continent who could have the power to do something.

"One year ago, the Heaven’s Will had sought me out and struck a deal with me…" Ye Han began nagging in front of Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was filled with drowsiness. It wasn’t because the story was boring. It was because, after listening to the entire story…what the f*ck had it got to do with him?!

...

"Stop, stop…stop right there! Gosh, even after everything you’ve said, I’ve got no idea what the hell you’re even trying to express. Can you just get to the main point?" Lin Fan waved his hand.

Ye Han looked at Lin Fan a little bitterly. This was the first time she had spoken so much to anybody in so many years of her life. To think that this person wouldn’t even allow her to finish! She did feel a little dejected within her heart.

She then continued, "I think that there’s going to be a really big conspiracy that will be happening in the near future."

Lin Fan sighed. Here it was, yet another woman with a persecutory delusional disorder.

To put it simply, ‘There’s always a peasant that’s plotting against the Emperor.’

...



Chapter 429: To Think That You Can Still Tell After I've Hidden It This Well

"Do you doubt my words?" Ye Han’s brows creased. She was evidently displeased from Lin Fan’s reaction.

This was a grave matter, one that concerned the wellbeing of the entire Xuanhuang World. How could this guy not have any reaction at all? Could there have been an issue with the things she had been investigating?

"It’s not that I doubt them. But why do you seek to cooperate with me?" Lin Fan looked at Ye Han in disdain. It might be a little sticky for him to have to work with a woman with persecutory delusions.

Ye Han looked at Lin Fan. Those hurried eyes gradually darkened, as though she was reveling in her memories.

"Based on my investigation, I’ve found that you’re a pretty responsible and accountable man. Not only that, you’re someone with a sense of loyalty. Coupled with the fact that you’re a top existence within the entire Dongling Continent, there would definitely be a greater chance of success if we were to work together. Does this reason satisfy you?" Ye Han asked.

Lin Fan placed his hands behind his back and reared back his head. A gentle breeze blew past as his long locks flew in the air. All of this only served to have Lin Fan look ever more elegant, mysterious, and deep.

"To think that these wonderful qualities of mine that I’ve tried so hard to hide deep within me have been uncovered by you. I’ve got to admit, you’ve got a good eye and sharp senses indeed to discover them. This tells me that you’re an extremely meticulous person. Fair enough then! I’ll work together with you. This is all for the sake of Xuanhuang World’s inhabitants!"

"After all, if I don’t enter Hell, who would? Justice shall be served. Evil shall never triumph over the righteous! Of course, I’ve sensed the changes in the Heaven’s Will." Lin Fan swept his robes, showing an air of righteousness.

"Good. I haven’t made a wrong judgment of your character. It’s really rare these days to have someone as just as you." Upon hearing these words, Ye Han’s heart was filled with joy as well. She was secretly glad that she hadn’t misjudged Lin Fan.

"Oh, it’s nothing. Really nothing. After all, all of this is for the living beings of Xuanhuang World! To think that Level Master Ye could have such a cultivation state at such a young age. THAT is pretty impressive too!" Lin Fan praised Ye Han back without any bit of shame.

"Oh, it’s nothing noteworthy. What I have is the power that’s passed down from all the different generations of ancestors. It is also a great fortune that I am able to enter the Blood World to communicate through to the source with this coincidental power. How can I compare to someone like you who could break through the Heavenly Barrier with his own abilities?" Upon hearing the praises from the other party, even though Ye Han’s face was nonchalant, she was actually blossoming with flowers of happiness within her heart.

Lin Fan already had an idea in his mind. This so-called 12th Level Master of Blood Kill Sect seemed a little retarded. Furthermore, she was a nag! Could it be that she hadn’t had anyone to talk to for so many years?

And just like that, the both of them exchanged polite praises, wasting a huge ton of time rambling.

But in actual fact, Lin Fan was pretty on the spot. As the 12th Level Master of Blood Kill Sect, Ye Han was in charge of all the other 11 levels. Usually, she would be hidden under her black robes. Her words would be frosty and cold. Other than spending her time on cultivation, she would be spending her time on MORE cultivation. She basically had no one to converse with at all.

The power of her ancestors was passed down the generations one after another. She spent most of her time channeling these energies to be used as her own. With the right opportunity from the Heaven’s Will that sent her into the Blood World, allowing her to communicate with the core, she managed to become an utmost celestial in one fell swoop.

"Based on the meaning of the Heaven’s Will actions, he had intended to use me to open up the Blood World. He would then merge the Blood World and Xuanhuang World together as one. However, I do not know the motive behind that." Ye Han continued as she was filled with misgivings.

"Doesn’t matter. Things will sort themselves out when it comes to it. At the same time, within these three years, the Beast Spirit World will break through the barrier and invade the Dongling Continent. By then, not only do we have to deal with the Heaven’s Will, we’ll have to deal with the Beast Spirit World as well." It was only now that Lin Fan knew of Heaven’s Will’s plan to merge Xuanhuang World with the Blood World. However, since he did not know the complete situation, he did not elaborate further on it.

"The Beast Spirit World will invade Dongling Continent?!" Upon hearing this, those exquisite features of Ye Han let out a look of disbelief.

"That’s right." Lin Fan nodded his head.

"So, that’s the case. Seems like danger awaits us from all directions." Ye Han could not help but sigh.

"Yes." Lin Fan nodded his head. He then looked straight at Ye Han. There was a burning question in his mind, "Is there anything else?"

At the same time, Ye Han looked at Lin Fan blankly.

At that instant, the entire place was silent and quiet.

Awkwardness ensued.

Ye Han coughed gently, wanting to say something. Evidently, it had been a long time since she even had the chance to chat with someone. However, now that she wanted to gossip a little, she found herself not knowing what to say anymore.

This caused her to feel really awkward.

"Level Master Ye, would you want to return first?" Lin Fan asked.

"Then, our cooperation…"

"We’ll discuss that later." Lin Fan replied calmly.

"Later. Right, later." Ye Han understood Lin Fan’s meaning. He did not want to waste time talking to her any longer. Even though she could not help but feel a little sad about this, she opened up a gap in the void and entered the Blood World. Through the Blood World, she returned to Dongling Continent.

After Ye Han’s departure, Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief.

Better not to get too close with girls like these who had persecutory delusions. What if she went bonkers and stabbed him in the back one day instead? That’d be a total tragedy!

...

"Teacher…"

Lin Fan’s students twerked their bottoms and scurried over. They were thoroughly filled with respect towards their teacher’s domineering acts. He was so damn bloody cool!

"Teacher, you’re simply too strong!" Han Mengmeng looked at Lin Fan with admiration.

Lin Fan smiled gently, "Remain humble…"

"Not only is our teacher so strong, he’s also so humble! There’s really so much that we ought to learn from him!" Cao Tianjiao knew that the only way to life was to a*slick one’s superiors. Hence, he was licking up Lin Fan’s a*s with utmost fervor.

"Tianjiao, some things should just be kept in the heart. Once you say them out, it will become embarrassing." Lin Fan’s lips pursed into a smile.

Seemed like Cao Tianjiao truly understood Lin Fan.

"Teacher, are you going to take us away from here?" Xiaoze asked.

After Xiaoze’s question came out, everyone looked at Lin Fan in anticipation. All of them wanted to be able to follow their teacher day and night, listening to his teachings, walking onto the path towards the peak of their lives.

Looking at these eager looks of his students, Lin Fan went into deep thoughts for a moment before shaking his head.

"Not right now. A terrible calamity is about to befall Dongling Continent. There’s no point in me bringing you guys over. You guys just stay right here. Once your teacher is done with the affairs over there, I’ll relocate the sect over here."

These students of his did not have a terribly high cultivation state.

Even if they went over with him to Dongling Continent, they would be nothing but cannon fodder.

Lin Fan knew that the path forward wouldn’t be so straightforward.

In fact, chances were that things might even end in a bloodbath.

Cao Tianjiao and the others could not hide their looks of disappointment. But, they knew in their hearts that their cultivation states were too low. Even if they were to head over now, they’d be nothing but burdens. With that, they didn’t say anything anymore. All they could hope for was for themselves to continue working hard and improving their cultivation states, so that they might be able to share a little of their teacher’s burdens one day.

"All of you, head to the Saint Devil Sect first. Hide beneath the foot of the mountain. Once everything is settled over there, I’ll return here for you guys. It’s time for me to return to Dongling Continent."

...

Under the reluctant gazes of his students, Lin Fan tore through the voids and headed towards the Heavenly Barrier. Leaving these students had Lin Fan heaving a sigh of relief as well. At times, it must be really sinful to be this popular.

Remembering those unwilling looks on his student’s faces, Lin Fan truly knew how much he was adored by them.

If one could ever live with the popularity of Lin Fan, they should most definitely be satisfied with life.

But for Lin Fan, this wasn’t enough just yet. Seemed like he had to work harder!



Chapter 430: Crafting Success, But Here Comes Trouble

Ever since Lin Fan returned from Cangling Continent, he had not done anything at all. Even though the issue of the Beast Spirit World was on his mind, he didn’t know when they would actually strike.

If he were to live life daily with such pressure on his mind, wouldn’t that be a tormented life? He might as well just live life normally.

Regarding this issue, Lin Fan had already raised it up with Grandmaster Yan and the others. Even though the descent of the Beast Spirit World would definitely be a calamity for all the living beings of Dongling Continent, there was nothing much they could do about it right now.

After all, Dongling Continent was such a huge place! Just the population alone could be comparable to the number of stars in the sky. If the Beast Spirit World were to invade from all directions, there was no way Lin Fan could save everyone.

Therefore, for something so headache inducing, Lin Fan would rather hand it over to Grandmaster Yan and the others.

Hence, Lin Fan’s personal life was relaxed daily, focused on educating his two young disciples.

One month later…

Lin Fan wanted to craft a treasure.

This idea had already been planted within Lin Fan’s mind for a long time now. Now that a month had passed, Lin Fan had gathered a number of materials. Even though there was no guarantee for him to create it completely, he could definitely create a prototype at least.

Sweeping his robes, all sorts of treasures appeared before him.

Heavenly Supporting Mythical Wood, Deep Abyss Water, Dark Gold Dragon’s Stone et cetera…

The sorts of treasures that appeared before Lin Fan were things people would definitely duel to their deaths just to get their hands on any one of them.

‘Activate Weapon Crafting.’

Initially, the system’s weapon crafting skill required Lin Fan to select the ingredients he wanted. However, right now, he had invented a new way to craft weapons.

Using Lin Fan as a center, all the treasure arrays circled around him.

Beckoning with his finger, the Heavenly Supporting Mythical Wood floated over. The first task was to sculpt the general shape.

The Heavenly Supporting Mythical Wood was an extremely rare treasure. In fact, even Glory Sect did not possess it at all. This was something that Lin Fan had painstakingly found after making a personal trip to a forbidden ground.

Within a weapon crafting flame, the shape of the Heavenly Supporting Mythical Wood repeatedly changed before melting slowly.

‘Regroup.’

Lin Fan rinsed it with some Deep Abyss Water before adding in the Dark Gold Dragon’s Stone and dozens of other precious treasures. Lin Fan’s idea was to create a country of his own. The source of his inspiration was from that skill, Demon City in a Palm.

Under the smelting heat of the weapon crafting flame, the shape of a city began to form gradually.

Looking at this city that was floating before him, Lin Fan’s lips curled into a smile. This was the first small step to success. But, he was still a long way from completion.

The Heaven and Earth possessed the five elements. A city could be a world of its own. However, it could not be considered as completed unless it possessed all five elements.

‘Pseudo Five Spirits.’

Ever since Lin Fan had obtained these Pseudo Five Spirits, they had been in his storage doing nothing. It was time to give it a shot.

Upon adding the Pseudo Five Spirits into the mix, a strange phenomenon happened. The semi-finished object began to crack repeatedly, looking as though it could crumble into dust at any moment.

"Holy shit! Don’t tell me that it’s going to fail this easily?!" Lin Fan was stunned.

"Wait, that’s right. The five elements complement and repel one another. Perhaps it’s got something to do with my arrangement of them." With this thought crossing his mind, Lin Fan hurriedly rearranged them.

Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. Under the command of Lin Fan’s fingers, the Pseudo Five Spirits began to change positions repeatedly. Eventually, upon being seated in their respective suitable positions, that cracked treasure began to recover. Interlinking and coiling with one another, the five sources of energy began to complement and boost one another.

"Now’s the time for the final step. If this works, then this semi-completed treasure can finally be finished."

Even though the big ancient demon had already perished, the massive power that resided within its body still existed.

If not for that legendary weapon, Seven Realms, Lin Fan would truly not have been able to take down this big ancient demon. In fact, even the current him might not be able to guarantee victory against that demon.

‘Heaven and Earth Smelt, smelt!’

With that, Lin Fan tossed the colossal titanic body of the big ancient demon within the smelt.

‘Ding…congratulations on smelting.’

‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining Soul of the Big Ancient Demon.’

A soul of a sinister demonic aura floated gently before Lin Fan. This soul seemed to be in a daze. It was yet to awaken, and seemed as though it was within a state of chaos.

‘Fuse.’

Lin Fan was going to use the soul of the big ancient demon as the treasure spirit of the treasure.

No matter how high level the precious treasures of Xuanhuang World were, all of them were like dead objects. However, once a treasure possessed a treasure spirit, it would generate limitless potential.

The moment the soul of the big ancient demon fused into the treasure, the treasure seemed to have come alive completely. Lin Fan could feel a sense of life rumbling within the treasure.

Perhaps, the semi-finished treasure was truly going to be completed!

Looking at the treasure repeatedly swirling before his very eyes while giving off a series of demonic aura, Lin Fan was filled with glee. Communicating with the Mythical Parasol Tree, Lin Fan abstracted a strain of lifeforce and tossed it within the Demon City.

BOOM!

A bright light emitted out in all directions as a massive aura encompassed the Demon City.

‘Ding…congratulations on creating a semi-finished pseudo-Legendary Weapon.’

...

Everyone from Glory Sect were startled by this massive aura.

"What’s that lad up to again?" Grandmaster Yan had long sensed that the aura around that area was a little strange. At the same time, he was curious towards the object that Lin Fan was creating.

As for the other Senior Elders, they were equally astonished. However, they broke off into chuckles not long after. They were already used to this lad’s magical ways of things.

Recently, all of them had been busy trying to communicate with the other sects. Some of the sects agreed to cooperate once they considered the greater picture. However, while some other sects agreed verbally, Glory Sect knew that they did not really put the matter in their minds.

...

Lin Fan was exhilarated. From the system’s notifications, he knew that his hard work had paid off!

Semi-finished pseudo-legendary weapon?!

What the hell was up with this though?!

Not only was it pseudo, it was semi-finished! This…!

Lin Fan was speechless.

Thinking back to the Nine Five Legendary Brick and Seven Realms, both of them were made up of all sorts of motley materials! None of them could be compared to this Demon City.

But to think that this Demon City would still be considered a semi-finished pseudo-legendary weapon! Lin Fan was exasperated right now. Seemed like luck was a significant component of one’s performance as well.

But no matter what, this was just an experiment. And the experiment paid off.

One had to use their own creative juices to craft weapons.

Lin Fan would not allow his precious Demon City to just remain as such. He then started thinking of ways to improve on the strength and power of his Demon City.

‘Twisting Heaven and Earth!’

‘True Origins Crushing Kick!’

‘Biggra!’

...

Lin Fan had an idea to fuse all of these things within the Demon City as well. However, that couldn’t be achieved. Hence, he could only sigh helplessly.

Seemed like he had to take this the slow way.

Yet, another month later…

"HAHA…finally, I’ve done it!"

This day, Lin Fan pushed open the doors from his house and stepped forth. After multiple trials and errors, he had finally boosted the capabilities of his Demon City!

If he wanted to continue improving on the strength of this legendary weapon, the only way was to look for even more precious treasures. At the same time, he would need to search for the true five spirits and fuse them with it. With that, Lin Fan had the utmost confidence that he could turn this Demon City into the best pseudo-legendary weapon there was.

Suddenly, Grandmaster Yan and the Senior Elders rushed over from all directions.

"Everyone, I’ve done it!" Lin Fan beamed at them brightly.

However, upon looking at their expressions, his heart skipped a beat. Had something happened?

"They’re here…" Grandmaster Yan’s face was grim. To think that it had happened this quickly without any signs of warnings at all.

"So quickly?" Lin Fan pushed down the excitement in his heart, and his face turned solemn as well.

"Yes."

This so-called ‘They’re here’ could only refer to one thing.

The Beast Spirit World invasion had begun.



Chapter 431: A Fart To Shock The World

Dongling Continent, at a little village near the boundaries…

This was a village that was secluded from the rest of the world. People here were relaxed and at ease, far from the scuffles and conflicts of the outside world.

BOOM!

Just then, at a far end edge of the village, a rip suddenly appeared and tore through the void. A gap of a few thousand feet suddenly appeared in this village, which was secluded away from the rest of the world.

Within that gap, black mist rumbled ominously, as though countless demons and devils were about to emerge out from within.

All these simple villagers immediately let down every single thing they were working on and looked at this gap in shock.

They had no idea in the least bit what was about to happen.

‘ROAR!’

Suddenly, a series of roars came out from within, booming through the void.

Upon hearing these roars, these simple villagers were filled with horror. The color drained from their faces, and all the kids ran towards their parents to hide behind them.

"Finally, we’re out…!"

Just then, a bunch of massive beasts came out from within the void. These beasts were burning with pitch black flames on their bodies. Towering and imposing, they darted towards the humans.

"AHHHH…!!! MONSTERS ARE HERE…!"

"RUN!"

"HELP US…!"

All these simple villagers could only run around in terror. However, in the eyes of these beasts, they were like fishes on a chopping board.

"HAHA…! Human fruits are the best indeed!" An extremely malevolent looking beast had used his sharp fingernail to pierce through a person‘s head. Holding this person up like a barbequed meat, he devoured the body whole into his tummy.

All these villagers in this small village were eventually cornered. One by one, all of these malicious beasts glared at them with a thirsty look in their eyes.

"All of these humans are mine!" That malevolent beast from earlier glared over at these bunch of humans. Opening his wide mouth, he was intent on devouring all these humans in one mouthful.

BAM!

Suddenly, a gigantic flaming red hand slammed down on the head of that beast. Blood and meat splashed all over. That malevolent beast from earlier had died just like that.

"Whoever dares to consume any human beings shall die." A mighty towering colossal beast with exceptional aura howled into the sky.

If Lin Fan were around, he would have recognized this fella with a single look.

This was the Flame Overlord who was born from a mix of a human and a beast.

Under the mighty command of the Flame Overlord, all the other beasts quivered in fear, not daring to resist.

The Flame Overlord looked down at the entire place. He then looked into the distance. Sensing a familiar aura, he called out, "All of you, follow me."

BOOM!

BOOM!

The ground shuddered with every single step that these beasts took, as the massive group followed the Flame Overlord into the distance.

...

One by one, these gaps appeared in many places all around Dongling Continent.

Some of the villages were not as fortunate as that secluded one.

Wherever these beasts passed, nothing was left alive or intact. All of the humans were destroyed instantly by the rush of these beasts. In fact, they died extremely horrible deaths.

All of them were devoured whole.

There was a huge population in the Great Sheng Dynasty. This was one of the biggest dynasties in the entire Dongling Continent.

But at this moment, three gaps had appeared outside the Great Sheng Dynasty.

Everyone was stunned by the appearance of these gaps, from which, the roaring of beasts could constantly be heard.

Within an inn in the Great Sheng Dynasty…

Seeing this scene, a young man shuddered, and then appeared at the city walls of the Great Sheng Dynasty. Looking into the distance, he was astonished.

"So many mighty beasts! Could this be the end of the world?"

"I definitely can’t face them head-on. But, there’s no way I should let these beasts destroy this place! Since the direction of the wind is in my favor, seems like I have to use THAT move."

The young man leaped up onto the city walls. Upon seeing this, the guards of the Great Sheng Dynasty urged this young man to head down immediately. However, this young man did not heed their advice.

Suddenly, right in front of the gazes of everyone present, the young man turned around. Positioning his butt facing outside the city, he looked at the masses, "Guys, get further away. Just in case you guys suffer from any collateral damage!"

‘POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT…!’

In that instant, the skies boomed out. This sound shook through the Heavens and Earth, causing everything to vibrate violently. An unknown yellow gas spurted out from the young man’s anus rapidly, filling up the entire skies instantly.

"Done." Satisfied with his work, the young man clapped his hands together proudly.

Everyone looked into the distance. Seeing the scene before them, all of their jaws dropped apart in disbelief. To think that that massive army of beasts would all collapse under this single fart!

Just what sort of a fart was that for it to be this strong!?

Yao Wuxie was nonchalant towards the gazes of the audiences. He looked into the distance, "Brother Lin, seems like it’s time for me to look for you. This looks like something big is about to happen."

Yao Wuxie had undergone a massive change in these past one to two years.

Even though he was still afraid of death and lazy, his power had grown tremendously. At the same time, he had found a way to control his special body type.

In the hands of Yao Wuxie, his Doomed Poison Body could finally unleash its fullest potential.

...

Glory Sect…

Lin Fan was having a big headache right now. Seemed like the Beast Spirit World was really unscrupulous indeed. To think that they would appear in such a wide range of areas. There was completely no chance for them to save or rescue anyone like that!

"Look over there…!" Grandmaster Yan’s face changed as he pointed out into the distance.

From a location not too far from Glory Sect, a gap of a few thousand feet had begun to open up.

Within the gap, Lin Fan could sense a horrifying presence.

Not only was this presence strong, it was familiar.

Indeed, it was as he had expected in his mind.

"Grandmaster, have the disciples hide away first. This battle isn’t something that they can handle." Lin Fan said solemnly.

The beasts were uncountable. Besides, beasts were stronger than humans to begin with if they were on equal footing, way stronger. Unless one had a certain cultivation state or level, there was no way one could fight against a beast.

"Alright, have all of our disciples enter the secret chamber!" Grandmaster Yan pumped down the orders without hesitation.

"Let’s head over to check out the situation." Lin Fan continued.

"Alright."

Lin Fan and the others headed over towards the gap. Upon reaching the gap, they were dumbfounded by the sight before them.

Upon reaching there, mountains and mountains of beasts were pouring out of the gap densely. The moment they touched the ground below, nothing could grow in their vicinity.

"These beasts are different from the ones in our world. They’re much stronger in terms of power." Lin Fan frowned. He was concerned.

Of course, there was no issue that these beasts were appearing around the Glory Sect. However, the presence of these beasts anywhere else would definitely spell trouble.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that nothing would be left alive.

"This is a calamity of Dongling Continent." Suddenly, the void rippled, and Ye Han appeared from within.

"Level Master Ye, how’s the situation over at Cangling Continent?" Lin Fan asked.

"I’ve already headed over to check. Everything’s fine at Cangling Continent." Ye Han’s face was grim and serious as well. She had not expected things to turn out like this just months after parting from Lin Fan.

"That’s great." Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief. If both sides were facing the same situation, then there was practically no chance of salvation at all.

"Demon City!"

Now that his treasure had already been completed, Lin Fan had yet to have the chance to try it out. This was probably the best time for it.

"What’s that treasure?" Upon taking a look at Demon City, Ye Han was stunned.

"Just something I’ve crafted casually." Lin Fan replied calmly.

Focusing his gaze, he continued, "Suppress them."

BOOM!

Suddenly, the Demon City began to expand rapidly. Covering the entire sky, a boundless amount of demonic aura burst out from within, as it crashed down towards the ground.

‘Ding…congratulations on killing lesser celestial beast.’

...

The notifications from the system rang out like a phone call. Lin Fan muted it immediately. This was not the time to be bothered about these.

And just then, Lin Fan’s face changed as he jumped into the void.

"Level Master Ye, help me to take care of Glory Sect. I’ll be back in a jiffy." Lin Fan requested.

"Alright." Ye Han nodded her head without hesitation.

Other than Lin Fan, Ye Han was probably the strongest in the Dongling Continent right now. With her around to hold the fort, Lin Fan could be at ease.



Chapter 432: Let The Battle Begin

Ever since Lin Fan left, all of the old folks of Glory Sect remaining were a little unhappy. How could he ask a young girl to look after Glory Sect for him? Wasn't that just looking down on them?

Looking at these people, Ye Han's lips pursed into a smile.

She could tell that these people were definitely curious about her. With that, she opened up her arms and began conversing with everyone.

Once the conversation began, there was no end to it...

Everyone from Glory Sect were left stumped.

...

Ripping through the void, Lin Fan rushed towards Xuanjian Sect. He had felt the feedback of a powerful source of energy. That was the power that was reflected from the bracelet he had given to Xuan Yunxian.

Obviously, this meant that Yunxian must be under attack! Lin Fan wasn't that worried about that cheap son of his and Yunxian though. However, no matter what, Xuanjian Sect was Yunxian's sect. He had to head there to give her a hand.

If the losses were grave, Yunxian would definitely be heartbroken.

It was a good thing that Xuanjian Sect was located in a good place. They were located at the top edge of the 'Heaven Sword'. Therefore, even if the beasts wanted to rush up, they would need some time to do that.

Yunxian and the other Senior Elders were holding the fort against the onslaught of the beasts right now.

When the gap had opened up beside Xuanjian Sect, they were totally stumped. By the time they saw the beasts approaching, fear began to bubble within their hearts quickly.

These beasts bore a significant difference compared to the beasts that resided within Dongling Continent usually.

They were way stronger.

And the most shocking thing was the fact that there were even humanoid beasts within them.

In the records of the sect, humanoid beasts were one of the strongest types of beasts ever. They could cultivate just like any other human being. Also, they had the same intelligence as humans and they could adapt and think.

All the other Xuanjian Sect disciples were hiding at this moment. None of them could offer any help at all. Any one of these beasts could definitely kill them in a single shot.

"Grandmaster, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer!" After slaying a beast, one of the Senior Elders remarked out in worry.

"This is no small matter right now. If not for the fact that Grandmaster Yan had headed over to inform us about this possibility months prior, Xuanjian Sect may have already been destroyed!" The previous Grandmaster said.

Upon hearing the news that the Beast Spirit World might descend upon them months ago, all of them were shocked silly.

What sort of a place was the Beast Spirit World? To them, it was a place where all the ferocious and deadly beasts resided. Not only that, their population was huge. The sheer number of beasts in that world could even be comparable to the number of humans in Xuanhuang World.

'ROAR…!'

That maddened roar rang through the entire skies. Within the void, the beasts gushed out.

"The Hell race of the Beast Spirit World swears to flatten the entire Xuanhuang World!" Just then, a humanoid beast appeared at the entrance of the gap.

That malevolent and titanic body of his looked down at the world in disdain. There were three separate heads that were howling out wildly, bringing along with them an energy of thunder. It was as though a god of destruction had descended upon Xuanjian Sect itself.

"Not good. Someone strong has arrived." Everyone's faces changed. The powerful aura that was emanated from that humanoid beast caused all of their hearts to skip a beat.

Looking at that towering colossal figure, Liu Linfeng's face changed as well.

"Daddy, grant me strength!" Liu Linfeng screamed into the skies. He wanted to head up to help, but he knew that he was definitely no match for these beasts with his current strength.

"Senior Brother, it's useless…" One of the junior sisters beside him commented in a frightened tone.

"Your a*s! Who says that it's useless?" Liu Linfeng refused to believe that it wouldn't work and screamed out once more.

"DADDY, GRANT ME STRENGTH!"

...

"Hais, seems like it's really useless." As time passed, Liu Linfeng gradually began to give up as well. He then plopped his bum down onto the ground helplessly.

And just then, something happened.

"Grandmaster, watch out!" Everyone exclaimed in shock as that humanoid beast had sent a fist pummelling down.

Xuan Yunxian's face changed as well. She wanted to dodge, but it was too late. She had just slain a single beast earlier on, but the humanoid beast took this chance to send a fist flying her way.

BAM!

Xuan Yunxian awaited death. However, at that moment, she found a bright burst of light shielding her from the punch of the beast.

"He's the one who saved me." Xuan Yunxian reacted back immediately. Looking at the glowing beam on her bracelet right now that had deflected the blow, her face was filled with reminiscence.

"Human, let's see how long more you can hold on!" Upon seeing this scene, the humanoid beast of the Hell race reared his head up and howled into the sky. He then sent another fist with tremendous force pummelling down, determined to kill this human.

...

"INSOLENT…!" Just then, Lin Fan, who was tearing through the void, was thoroughly incensed seeing this scene.

"DADDY'S HERE…!" Listening to this voice, Liu Linfeng jumped up immediately and hopped in joy.

Upon hearing this voice, Xuan Yunxian's face was filled with excitement as well, as she looked into the distance.

Lin Fan's cultivation state was already beyond the world. As such, the speed at which he tore through the void was also horrifying as well. The difference between the speed of an utmost celestial and a greater celestial was like Heaven and Earth.

Even though the distance from Glory Sect to Xuanjian Sect was pretty far, it was practically just a short travel time for Lin Fan.

BAM!

Lin Fan had appeared right in front of Xuan Yunxian. Stopping the punch of the Hell race's humanoid beast with his single hand, Lin Fan turned around and grinned, "Don't worry. I'm here."

Just that simple assurance was enough to set Xuan Yunxian completely at ease.

'Nirvana Finger.'

A massive amount of energy surged out from within Lin Fan's body.

"How could that be…?!" The Hell's race humanoid beast tilted his head up and yelled. He could feel the destructive power of that skill. He refused to believe that a human could possess such formidable strength!

The energy surged through the body of the humanoid beast all over, wreaking havoc and tearing him apart bit by bit.

"NO…!" The humanoid beast of the Hell's race let out a final howl of indignance.

'Ding…congratulations on killing greater celestial full cultivation beast.'

'Ding…experience points +…'

Sweeping his robes, Lin Fan tossed the body of the entire humanoid beast into the Heaven and Earth Smelt.

'Ding…congratulations on smelting.'

'Ding…congratulations on obtaining 30 energy grid line chains.'

...

The beasts who had appeared out of the void were horrified to see their leader being taken down by this human being. With that, all of them scurried off in all directions, trying to make a break for it.

"Hmph, want to run? Dream on."

'Firmament…!' Lifting up his Eternal Axe and slamming down, the entire Earth split apart. That axe, which wielded enough force to destroy everything, cut through the entire place, killing all the beasts at once.

"DADDY…!" Looking at Lin Fan's heroic actions, Liu Linfeng was captivated, and started running towards him.

"Time is tight. All of you follow me back to Glory Sect." Lin Fan sent Liu Linfeng flying with a single kick. Given the current circumstances, he couldn't waste any time in letting this cheap son hug his leg anymore.

Looking at how his Daddy had treated him, Liu Linfeng plopped his bum down onto the ground once more, looking at Lin Fan with a sorrowful look, evidently dejected.

"Nothing must happen to you." Xuan Yunxian gripped Lin Fan's wrist tightly, revealing a look of deep concern.

Lin Fan looked at Xuan Yunxian and nodded his head, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Everything shall pass."

"Yes, I believe in you."

With that, Lin Fan swept his robes and brought everyone tearing through the void with him, towards Glory Sect.

The world was a huge place. Lin Fan was not a god. There was no way he could save everyone.

Furthermore, given the current situation, he was sure that there must be a big BOSS hidden somewhere in the depths, waiting for him.

...

Within a mysterious place of the Dongling Continent was the hometown of the girl whom Lin Fan had once mistaken as the Heaven Queen.

Four Elders were seated with their eyes closed.

Suddenly, they opened their eyes.

"Eventually, it has still returned."

"That's right. I'm here to retrieve my body." Above the coffin in the middle of the tribute altar, a black robed person floated.

Looking at the black-robed figure, all four elders shuddered in fear. They then yelled out, "Feixue, run!"

Ni Feixue, who looked exactly like the Heaven Queen, walked out slowly. She glared at the black robed person, "You shouldn't continue to create karma of killing."

"Hmph." The black robed person snorted coldly. With a massive surge of energy erupting out from the person, the entire islet was caged within.

...



Chapter 433: Stop Belittling Others!

"Not too good."

In this short period of time, Lin Fan had already rescued a number of sects and dynasties. However, Dongling Continent was such a huge place. Even these number of rescues was just like using a cup of water to try extinguishing a raging fire.

The Beast Spirit World’s invasion was worse than anything Lin Fan could have imagined. Basically, the entire Dongling Continent was shrouded within this darkness.

Countless people had died under the cruel claws of these beasts. Many sects had sent out righteous crusades against these beasts as well. However, against the sheer number of beasts, there was only a limited amount of help they could provide.

"Why is it that the Beast Spirit World is invading Dongling Continent? If we can find the reason behind it all and the source of it, then everything can be solved." Ye Han commented calmly.

"Lin Fan, what’s wrong? Could it be that you’ve thought of something?" Looking at Lin Fan frowning, Ye Han asked, knowing that something must have struck him.

Lin Fan did not reply. He had been pondering about something all this while.

He was around 80% sure that this entire thing had to do with the Ancient One.

The reason why Lin Fan had not smelted the Eternal Donger was because he didn’t want to use someone else’s dong. However, he realized that the Eternal Donger had been a little restless recently.

The only plausible reason for this must be that its owner had arrived. If that was truly the case, then this must be something extremely troubling for Lin Fan.

Who knew how strong the Ancient One would be.

"I’m asking you a question. Sometimes, there are issues that can’t be solved with a single person’s strength." Ye Han was displeased at Lin Fan’s silence.

There were many good things about this guy. But one bad thing was the fact that he liked to keep things to himself.

"Little Fan, Level Master Ye is right. If you’ve got anything in your mind, please speak up. We can discuss about it." Grandmaster Yan added on.

Some of the other Senior Elders felt the same way as well. At the same time, they felt that Little Fan was living a really rough life, keeping everything bottled up within himself.

"Little Fan, it can’t be that you think that we’re too old to help, hence your reluctance to tell us anything, right?" Senior Elder Wuya commented.

"No, it’s not that. It’s just that I don’t know how to say this out." Lin Fan was a little exasperated. If he were to tell them that it was the Ancient One right now, wouldn’t they just sh*t their pants?

Just a single Eternal Arm had 100 energy grid line chains to it, not to talk about the other parts all added together.

"It’s alright, you can start slowly…" Everyone echoed in unison.

Just then, the mountain base of Glory Sect rumbled. Zong Hentian and the others retreated back with a look of fright. "Grandmaster, Junior Master. The beasts from outside are attacking here!"

"What? There are more?" Grandmaster Yan’s brows creased upon hearing this.

Lin Fan on the other hand was a little riled up that some beasts would still dare to charge up here, not knowing their place.

"Boss…!" Suddenly, at the entrance of the peak, a small little rotund kid dashed over.

Hearing this voice and looking at the figure, Lin Fan’s face changed, "Don’t worry guys. These beasts aren’t here to attack us."

"Boss, I’ve finally found you! That fella has finally invaded Dongling Continent! I’ve brought all my people of my race over here!" The Flame Overlord reported.

"Little Fan, who’s this kid here?" Grandmaster Yan and the others were astonished, as they asked in bewilderment.

"This is the Flame Overlord. He’s one of the overlords of the Beast Spirit World." Lin Fan gave them a short summary.

Ignoring the confused looks on their faces, he continued asking, "How many of them are here this time round?"

"Boss, it’s really no joke this time round! The entire Beast Spirit World has come altogether! Even though I’m an overlord with my entire Flame race under me, we are still nothing compared to the combined strength of the entire Beast Spirit World!" The Flame Overlord had already been trained up by Lin Fan. Hence, he was more loyal than ever. Even if things were ominous right now, he was filled with no fear.

"Holy f*ck. This is annoying." Lin Fan shrugged his head, not knowing what to do.

Now that the entire Beast Spirit World had come altogether, who could stop them at all? In fact, no one here other than Ye Han could even keep their lives under an onslaught of the beasts!

Grandmaster Yan and the others checked out this kid keenly. The more they looked, the grimmer their faces got. Even though the aura was nothing to be alarmed about, there was a deep power hidden within, that was sending chills down their spines.

How could this kid be a living being of the Beast Spirit World!? That was totally unbelievable!

"Everyone, given the current circumstances, I guess we can only fight to our deaths. Also, unless anything unexpected happens, the leader who had brought the Beast Spirit World’s invasion should possess at least 500 energy grid line chains." Disregarding whether or not everyone could take the news, Lin Fan laid bare his guess.

"WHAT? 500?!" With that speech, everyone’s jaws dropped to the ground in disbelief.

Even the thought of 500 energy grid line chains was just crushing their spirits entirely!

At this moment, they finally understood why Little Fan had been withholding the information at the start. After all, an enemy like this wasn’t someone they could deal with.

But the main point was, did Little Fan have the confidence?

Ye Han could feel her blood running cold as well. Even though she was an utmost celestial being right now, she did not have that many energy grid line chains either.

"If the opponent only has 500 energy grid line chains, I have the confidence to duke it out with him. However, if there’s more than that, I’m afraid I can’t guarantee anything." Lin Fan commented with a worried look.

Furthermore, he knew that the Ancient One wasn’t the final enemy. His greatest concern right now was the Heaven’s Will. He was worried that even if he manged to take down the Ancient One, the Heaven’s Will might appear to clean him up when he’s weakened. That would be real trouble.

The moment Lin Fan’s words came out, the blood drained from everyone’s faces.

500 energy grid line chains and Little Fan could stand a chance still?!

"Little Fan, just how strong are you right now?" Grandmaster Yan asked while everyone else stared at Lin Fan blankly. To think that the lad they had saved back then had progressed to this state by now.

"Grandmaster, at this juncture, how strong I am is no longer the concern. What we should be bothered about is that the entire Beast Spirit World has descended upon us. Will we be able to hold them back?"

"This…" Everyone was speechless. That was a major question mark indeed.

Just as they were pondering, the void rippled once more and two figures walked out of it.

"Leave the Beast Spirit World to us."

"It’s you guys!" Lin Fan’s face changed.

‘To think that things would escalate as such. This was definitely out of my calculations."

The two people who had arrived were He Yuhan and Xia Youtian.

A year ago, Xia Youtian’s strength was not that great. To think that he had improved so drastically in just a single year’s time.

Greater celestial full cultivation state, with 135 energy grid line chains.

"Now that the Beast Spirit World has descended upon us, I can hold off the fort with him." He Yuhan replied with confidence.

Xia Youtian looked at He Yuhan. His face was unsettled. He felt like he wanted to say something, but he couldn’t get the words out. In this period of time, he had a feeling that his Sister He would just leave him silently somehow.

Lin Fan glared at He Yuhan warily.

She did the same, "Trust me. This is my home after all."

"Alright…" Lin Fan nodded his head eventually. Now that things had come to this, what else could he do?

Just with his strength alone, he didn’t have the confidence to settle the entire Beast Spirit World completely.

...

"Little Fan, what about us?" Grandmaster Yan and the others looked at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan looked at Grandmaster Yan and the others. He wanted to say, ‘You guys go and find a good place and take a breather first.’ But eventually, he couldn’t bring himself to say such words.

"Complement the two of them and hold off against the Beast Spirit World. Leave the leader of the Beast Spirit World to me." Lin Fan replied.

"Lin Fan, I can fight together with you." Upon hearing Lin Fan’s words that he was going to face the leader alone, Ye Han was a little disgruntled.

No matter what, she was an utmost celestial as well.

"Forget it. Just hold off the Beast Spirit World together with them. That leader isn’t someone you can handle. With just a single skill, he should be able to slay you." Lin Fan did not say these words to scare Ye Han. He was speaking the truth.

If the Ancient One truly had 500 energy grid line chains, even Ye Han, who had broken through to an utmost celestial, would be finger food for him.

"Can you stop belittling others!" Ye Han was riled. Wasn’t he just being condescending?!

"Level Master Ye, let’s just listen to Little Fan. Now’s not the time to act tough." Grandmaster Yan intervened.

"Hmph…" Ye Han snorted coldly and turned around, not wanting to have anything more to say to them.

"Then that’s settled. Everyone, go and make your preparations. Three days later, our reward for victory shall be staying alive. But if we lose, we all die.’ Lin Fan wanted to lighten up the mood.

But now that things were like this, that was really quite the wish to wish for.



Chapter 434: The Ancient One Strikes

Three days later…

A thousand miles away from the Glory Sect, on a continuous ridge of valleys…

Lin Fan stood on top of the valley. Looking far into the distance, he took in a deep breath.

‘Relax, relax! There’s nothing great about this at all! It’s just an all-out fight, isn’t it? I can definitely win this! If worse comes to worse, I will just drag him within the Heaven and Earth Smelt and perish together, that’s all!’ Lin Fan was consoling himself.

This was the first time he was feeling such nervousness after all these years.

"Chicky, you need to take care. Go ahead and join up with the rest of them." Chicky, who was standing beside his big bro, looked up. His eyes shone with unwillingness.

‘Cuckoo…’ Chicky cried out reluctantly. He did not wish to leave Lin Fan’s side.

It had been a number of years since he had been with Lin Fan now. The hearts of this chicken and man duo were pretty much connected in thoughts and feelings.

Chicky could feel the sense of unease within his big bro’s heart. He knew that the opponent this time around must be really strong. Otherwise, there was no way his big bro would ask him to go away like this.

"Stop cucking. The more you cuck, the more frustrated I’ll get." Lin Fan waved his hand, requesting for Chicky to leave.

‘Cuckoo…’ Chicky stood right there, not wanting to budge a single inch. His eyes were hesitant.

"Hurry up and get lost! Don’t get me angry! You know that if I were to get angry, even I would be afraid of myself!" Lin Fan raised his hand, wanting to slap Chicky.

Chicky lowered his head gently and shrunk it under his featherless wings, evidently looking really pitiful right now.

Sighing heavily, Lin Fan squatted down. He patted Chicky’s head gently, "Don’t be afraid, alright? No matter what, you’re the direct descendant of the Ancient Beast, Phoenix. Don’t throw the face of your big bro here, alright?"

‘Cuckoo…’ Chicky nodded his head obediently.

"Off you go then. If anything goes awry, just run. No matter what, you must ensure your chicken life."

Chicky glared at Lin Fan. He leaped forward into Lin Fan’s embrace. Using his small little head, he rubbed it against Lin Fan’s chest gently for a couple of times.

He then left. Every few steps he took, he couldn’t help but look back at this dear owner of his, until he eventually disappeared from Lin Fan’s sight.

Lin Fan gripped his fist tightly. He wondered if he could get out as luckily as before.

But no matter what the case was, he had to get rid of this Ancient One.

What was the worst thing that could happen? At most, he would just perish together with the Ancient One.

But of course, his heart would definitely be set at ease if all of this had nothing to do with the Ancient One. That would make things easier.

Lin Fan was just making preparations for the worst.

...

On the other side of the valley…

Grandmaster Yan, Senior Elder Wuya, Xia Youtian, He Yuhan, Ye Han, Flame Overlord, Zong Hentian, Jian Wudi, Meng Hao, Lu Yan, Mie Qiongqi and the others were all hidden in a dark corner.

Everyone’s faces were grim.

Battles were breaking out at every single last part of Dongling Continent right now. Each of the sects were busy helping out and fighting their own battles, ensuring the safety of their locations.

In these desperate and extreme times, the righteousness and evil of mankind no longer had any say in their actions. After all, both sides had a common enemy.

They knew that if they didn’t chase these beasts away from this world, Dongling Continent would cease to exist.

Even though the sects had suffered major casualties, the ones who had it the worst were the commoners after all.

Under the trampling of these beasts, be it dynasties or cities, all of them were destroyed instantaneously, without any chance of survival.

In the valley…

Lin Fan shut his eyes, standing tall between the Heaven and Earth. His white robes swayed along with the wind.

Suddenly, his eyes burst open. The moment he did so, his mental energy had reached its peak state. Along with a fervent fighting intent, his aura shot through into the Heavens.

‘Eternal Donger, come out!’

Slapping his storage bag, the Eternal Donger was released. If the hidden mastermind behind the Beast Spirit World’s invasion were truly the Ancient One, then the aura that was released by the Eternal Donger would definitely be enough to lure him over.

With a tremendous aura, the Eternal Donger was released.

Somewhere in a forbidden ground of Dongling Continent, a black-robed figure was burning with rage, looking at an empty secret chamber.

Suddenly, the black-robed figure moved. He had felt a familiar aura. This was something that belonged to him.

‘GRAURGH…!!!’

A voice that was neither that of a beast nor a human boomed across the Heaven and Earth. Suddenly, every single last beast within the Dongling Continent stopped moving. Looking into the distance, they suddenly burst out with an extreme speed.

Tearing through the void, the headed towards that appointed destination.

‘Seems like my guess was right. This is indeed the most unfortunate outcome.’ Lin Fan sighed heavily. This was bad.

At that moment, a long howl permeated over across the sky. It rumbled the entire Heavens and Earth. The Eternal Donger, which was floating in the sky above Lin Fan, struggled furiously, as though it wanted to break free and head towards the direction of the howl.

"Come back!" Flicking his robes, Lin Fan leashed the Eternal Donger back into his storage.

The system’s storage was completely disparate from this world. It would be a fool’s dream if the Eternal Donger wanted to escape from within.

But that long howl was leaving Lin Fan extremely unsettled. This was a powerful being.

From the distance, the sky darkened gradually as it approached, covering the entire sky with a black mist. There seemed to be a peerless demon that was hidden within that black mist, howling uncontrollably and malevolently.

Lin Fan’s hands were behind his back. He remained sturdy as he gazed into the distance.

He couldn’t back down right now. If he did, everything would truly be over.

The aura from the distance was getting stronger by the second. That black mist that was carrying a tremendous aura had already filled half of the entire Dongling Continent by now.

The Flame Overlord, who was in hiding, was breaking out in cold sweat as well, "It’s here. That terrifying aura…"

He Yuhan’s face tightened as well. Her smooth hands gripped tightly together, as waves began to surge in her heart. This aura was simply way too strong. This was entirely beyond He Yuhan’s calculations. Just who was that is able to possess such horrifying powers?

Chicky shrank his head. Those beady eyes looked into the distance as well, unable to hide the worry within his heart.

"Since you’re here, come on out. Stop with the antics." Lin Fan looked into the Heaven and said calmly.

This was Lin Fan’s most serious moment ever. Compared to even the big ancient demon from before, he had never been so solemn. This was because the aura from the big ancient demon was entirely different from the aura of this thing.

In that instant, the black mist began to concentrate together into a single point. Eventually, it turned into a black-robed man who floated in the sky gently. That serene gaze under the black robe glared straight at Lin Fan.

In that instant, the entire world seemed to have frozen over.

"You’re the one who has my body?" The black robed person’s voice was imposing. Every single word that came out of his mouth slammed down upon this world like a single mountain by itself.

"You’re the Ancient One?" Lin Fan’s eyes were fixed on this figure in the sky.

His cultivation state was incomprehensible. His entire body was lined with energy grid line chains. There was nothing that could be made clear about this person.

As for these energy grid line chains, Lin Fan could tell that there was something different about them. It was as though they were split apart.

"To think that there would still be someone who knows about me. Who are you?" The black robed person asked vehemently. That tremendously authoritative voice boomed out towards Lin Fan’s entire being.

Raising his hand, a sword glow lit up and sliced through that pressure that was incoming.

"Don’t resort to such trickeries in front of Yours Truly. And of course, I know all about you. Both your arm and donger are with me." Lin Fan glared at him straight in the eyes.

"Hand them back to me, and I shall spare your life." The Ancient One’s voice was sinister.

He could sense his very own aura emanating from this person before him. However, this aura had already broken its connection with him. It was as though they no longer belonged to him.

Upon this discovery, the Ancient One was filled with boundless rage. To think that this puny human would dare to occupy his own body?

But, how could that be as well?

His body was imperishable and indestructible! How could it have been converted over by a human?

BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!

At that moment, the ground began to shake violently. From the distance, dust clouds filled the air.

The beasts of the Beast Spirit World had finally arrived.

"Cut your crap. Since you dare to invade Dongling Continent, you shall stay here forever!" Lin Fan’s face was solemn. He couldn’t let this Ancient One interfere with those behind him and their affairs. With his strength, they would definitely not be able to fight against this Ancient One.

"Hmph…BRAZEN!" Looking at how this human dared to taunt him, the Ancient One snorted coldly.

…..

"The beasts are here. Everyone, prepare." Grandmaster Yan bellowed.

Everyone took in a deep breath. It was difficult to know if they would make it out of this alive.

All they could do was try.



Chapter 435: The Part Of The Ancient One's Groin Which Was Lost Forever

'Demon City!'

In that instant, Lin Fan's aura instantly erupted out. The semi-finished treasure floated gently in the sky. The boundless demonic energy that was being emitted culminated slowly within the skies.

In that instant, an illusory figure of the big ancient demon appeared between the Heaven and Earth. Rearing its head into a mad howl, it tore through the void and struck down towards the Ancient One.

"Eh? Demon King?" The Ancient One was stumped for a moment before he burst out laughing, "HAHA…! What a great joke this is! To think that the great demon king, who has conquered over all the ancient times, would be crafted into a treasure by someone! What a tremendous form of humiliation that must be! HAHAHA!"

Suddenly, the Ancient One's face changed, as his tone also turned sinister. Revealing a look of disdain, his black robes danced into the sky as he punched out, "With just you? You're far from qualified."

BOOM!

Lin Fan's face changed. The Ancient One was stronger than he had ever imagined, way stronger. To think that even the semi-finished pseudo-legendary weapon he had crafted couldn't even deal a single bit of damage! Not only that, it was nearly shattered into pieces with just a single punch from the Ancient One!

If not for the fact that the pseudo five spirits were boosting its strength by complementing one another, it would have definitely been destroyed by the Ancient One.

"Human, hand over my body, or you shall die!" The Ancient One hollered.

Disappearing into the void, he appeared right before Lin Fan instantly and threw out a punch.

"Hmph, dream on!" How could Lin Fan even let that happen? If the Ancient One were to fuse back with all his body parts, there would truly be no one who could deal with him at all!

BOOM!

As the two punches containing equally devastating power collided with one another, a dazzling brilliance erupted out from the clash. This light blinded the entire Heaven, as the immense energy surge produced from it rippled the void in its surroundings.

The Ancient One was startled as well. To think that a human could receive this punch of his! THAT was pretty unexpected.

Lin Fan's finger shivered, as a tremendous amount of energy coursed through his body. In terms of physical body state, Lin Fan was still slightly inferior compared to the Ancient One.

This arm was definitely not as simple as just 100 energy grid line chains. Even with just around half of his body fused together, the amount of power exerted out by the Ancient One was far from Lin Fan's imaginations.

If he allowed the Ancient One to fully fuse back with his Eternal Arm and Eternal Donger, that would have some unimaginable consequences.

"Hmph, to think that you're this strong, human. But, so what? Killing you would still be as simple as crushing a single ant." The Ancient One glared at Lin Fan. He had not expected this human to stand at par with him.

His body had been split apart thousands of years ago, and his strength right now was probably a mere 1% of his original strength. However, even then, it shouldn't be something a human could stand to oppose.

In fact, what Lin Fan did not know at this point was the fact that the energy grid line chains were the lowest form of power possible right now for the Ancient One.

However, ever since his body was split apart, each of his body parts could only cultivate on their own. Through the absorption of the power between the Heavens and Earth, energy grid line chains were the only things they could form.

However, if the Ancient One were to ever fuse together completely once more…that was the moment when one would understand the true meaning of fear.

...

On the other side…

"FLAME OVERLORD, HOW DARE YOU BETRAY OUR LORD?" Before being slapped to death by the Flame Overlord, a humanoid beast howled out in rage.

"Hmph." The Flame Overlord snorted coldly without replying much. That colossal body of his stood towering at the entrance, not allowing entry to any beasts.

Looking at that massive wave of beasts that was gushing down like a flood, Chicky's tiny heart could not help but pound rapidly. Turning around, Chicky saw the ripples in the sky due to the fight on the other end. Crying out loudly, flames burst out from Chicky's body as he transformed into a fiery red Phoenix.

Flapping his wings, Flames of the Nine Heavens burnt down below, covering the beasts in a blanket of fire.

'CUCKCUCKOOOOOOO…!'

Spreading his wings out to fly, a bright burst of red light filled the skies as he flew up. Those beasts who were covered in these flames could only remain caged until they were scorched into ashes.

"This pet of Little Fan is truly strong indeed." Looking at Chicky's majestic display, Grandmaster Yan could not help but sigh with reassurance.

Looking at how they weren't even comparable to a little bird, Zong Hentian and the others took in a deep breath before dashing out towards the beasts.

He Yuhan looked at the battle before her, her heart fraught with worries. Eventually, she could only shake her head helplessly, 'Seems like we can only do our best.'

...

Lin Fan was already fully held back by the Ancient One.

'True Origins Crushing Kick!'

Bam!

In that instant, Lin Fan caught sight of an opportunity and sent that kick flying towards the groin of the Ancient One. However, Lin Fan's face changed immediately.

He just recalled something. That portion of the Ancient One was still within his storage!

"INSOLENT…!" The Ancient One howled. Coiling up a surge of devastating energy, he burst it out towards Lin Fan.

BOOM!

Like a bullet, Lin Fan was sent flying into the ground below. Unable to withstand the impact, the ground nearby began to crack and crumble.

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +500,000,000'

...

Lin Fan spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. He wiped the sides of his mouth, not bothered in the least bit as he darted up into the skies and engaged the Ancient One in battle once more.

"Human, bow before me and I shall spare you!" The Ancient One hollered.

"Spare your mother!" Lin Fan had completely given up on defense. He was just striking out with every single last bit of offensive moves he had.

"Hmph, foolish." The Ancient One snorted coldly as his eyes flashed. In that instant, he gripped at Lin Fan's arm.

"This arm... it belonged to me, and IT SHALL BELONG TO ME FOREVER!" The Ancient One howled.

"THEN THIS ARM OF YOURS SHALL BE MINE!" With a maddened rage, Lin Fan gripped at the other arm of the Ancient One as well.

Both of them tugged hard. In that instant, meat and blood sprayed through the skies.

The Ancient One was gripping relentlessly on Lin Fan's right arm while Lin Fan was doing so to his left arm. And just like that, both of these formidable figures floated in the air, glaring at one another.

"HAHA…!" Suddenly, the Ancient One laughed maniacally. "Human, do you think that's all you need? My body belongs to me, now and forever! You shall never be able to have it!"

The Ancient One opened his mouth and devoured Lin Fan's right arm whole into his tummy.

Suddenly, the black robes he was wearing floated into the sky as Lin Fan finally caught sight of the true body of the Ancient One.

Glancing over, his face was stern. Indeed, it was as he had guessed.

The Ancient One was short of his right arm and that thing at his groin.

But at that instant, after the Ancient One had devoured Lin Fan's right arm, that missing right arm began regenerating.

'POWER REGRESSION…!'

In that instant, the sky changed colors. The entire body of the Ancient One was enveloped in a vortex. This typhoon was stronger than ever as it shot through the skies.

The left arm that Lin Fan had ripped out gave a massive jerk and broke free of Lin Fan's grip. It flew towards the Ancient One and fused back together with him, perfect as before.

Seeing this scene, Lin Fan could not help but grit his teeth. He had a really bad feeling about this. He definitely could not allow the Ancient One to continue as such.

Slapping out his storage, the Blood Gates appeared in the skies.

'Tribute! 300 energy grid line chains!'

'Tribute! Eternal Donger!'

'Blood World, descend down and suppress my enemies!'

...

Upon catching sight of that familiar portion of his body, the Ancient One, who was gradually recovering his strength, howled out.

"YOU B*STARD! RETURN ME MY BODY!" The Ancient One stretched out his arm, trying to snatch back his Eternal Donger.

But just then, a mysterious force of the unknowns appeared, repelling the Ancient One's arm away. It then confiscated all the items that Lin Fan had used for tribute.

"ARGH…!" The Ancient One howled with a pained look.

BOOM!

The skies rumbled as they were stained with the color of blood.

The Blood Gates burst open, as the Overlord of the Blood World came out from within slowly.

"HUMAN, YOU OUGHT TO DIE!" The Ancient One was thoroughly incensed. The mysterious powers of the unknown were not something that he could deal with. Thus, he could only vent all his frustrations out at Lin Fan.

"JUST THE BLOOD WORLD AND YOU DARE TO BE IMPERTINENT BEFORE ME? GO TO HELL!" With an enraged cry, the Ancient One sent out a punch.

Those wide opened doors of the Blood Gates shuddered momentarily before crumbling into dust instantly, and disappearing entirely from the world.

"How can this be…?!" Even Lin Fan was stunned by the power of that strike. To think that the Ancient One would be this strong even after it just retrieved a single arm!

"I'll definitely not let you fuse!"

Just then, the void rippled, and a bright light flashed out.

"ARGH…!" The Ancient One let out a howl of anguish once more as that regenerated right arm was severed yet again.

"Lin Fan, we must definitely not let him fuse!" A figure had suddenly appeared behind the Ancient One.

That right arm, which was floating in the sky, flew towards Lin Fan.

"MY ARM…!!!" Upon seeing this, the Ancient One howled in wrath.

...



Chapter 436: The Enemy's Too Strong! That's All I Can Do!

Looking at the person who had arrived, Lin Fan couldn’t help but be surprised! Thereafter, Lin Fan kept the arm within his storage without any hesitation.

The arm of the Ancient One that was ripped off was gradually regenerating back.

Sensing the connection with his arm lost once more, the Ancient One reared his head into the sky and howled. He turned around to the person who had arrived, "To think that you’re not dead yet!"

"How can I die if YOU are not dead…" Ni Feixue’s body was stained with blood. In fact, there was a gaping hole in her stomach. It was a mess of meat and blood, so gory that one would cringe at the mere sight of it.

Right now, a long sword was wielded in Ni Feixue’s arms.

Lin Fan looked at the sword and found that it looked quite familiar…Wasn’t that the gigantic sword that Xuanjian Sect resided on?! How was it in the hands of Ni Feixue?

"THIS SWORD AGAIN…DAMN IT!" Looking at the sword, the Ancient One’s face showed signs of fear.

"Haha, Ancient One! This was the sword that the Supreme Being and the God of War had used to sever your body along with the Eternal Axe! Are you finally feeling the fear?" Ni Feixue laughed out bitterly.

"B*STARD, AND YOU THINK I’D BE AFRAID…? You really still think you’re a match for me now that you’re just a single strain of consciousness?" The Ancient One was entirely riled up by now. Disregarding that severed arm, he sent a punch flying towards Ni Feixue.

Ni Feixue did not resist at all. Her fate was already determined.

"Lin Fan, you must definitely not let him fuse back once more!" Ni Feixue ignored the punch entirely as she cast her glance at Lin Fan, placing every single last bit of hope onto him.

BAM!

That single punch sent the entire Heavens rumbling. Under the massive impact of the Ancient One’s punch, Ni Feixue disintegrated into dust entirely. That single strain of consciousness no longer existed within this world.

That long sword turned into a beam of light as it shot away into the distance, disappearing from their sights entirely.

Seeing this, Lin Fan sighed. Just what in the world was going on?

Just what kind of stunts were these people from the upper world trying to pull?

"Human, return me my arm!" The Ancient One glared at Lin Fan in rage. He was thoroughly irritated by these ants by now.

"Ancient One, ARE YOU A RETARD? Do you seriously think I’m going to do that?" While Lin Fan was glaring at the Ancient One in disdain, his mind was in a fluster, trying to come up with ways to defeat this Ancient One.

His physical body state was at the Imperishable state right now. However, even though the Ancient One’s strength was barely 1% of his original state, Lin Fan was still struggling against his strikes nevertheless.

If he truly wanted to win this, he would have to bear till his physical body state leveled up.

"Come on, Ancient One! Yours Truly isn’t afraid of you!" Taking in a deep breath, Lin Fan darted out towards the Ancient One once more.

"Courting death." With a maddened howl, the Ancient One sent a punch flying out.

BAM!

‘Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +500,000,000’

"F*ck your mother! Is this all you’ve got?" Lin Fan wiped off the blood at the side of his lips. At the same time, the Firmament Blood within his body began rumbling.

At this moment, the massive amount of lifeforce provided by the Mythical Parasol Tree gushed out within Lin Fan’s body.

The level 9 of Blood Sea erupted out with immense power, as that massive blood aura surged through every last bit of Lin Fan’s body.

BOOM!

‘Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +500,000,000’

‘Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +500,000,000’

...

Strike after strike, Lin Fan was beaten down. Yet time and again, he rose back up and darted up against the Ancient One.

Lin Fan knew that the path of cultivation wasn’t an easy one. The stronger one became, the larger the amount of burden they had to endure on their body.

It was never as easy as he had always thought of it to be.

Far from a distance, Chicky caught sight of Lin Fan’s figure being struck down repeatedly. Seeing that, he cried out in rage. Flapping his wings, he swooped towards the Ancient One.

To Chicky, anyone who dared to bully his big old bro would have to pay with their lives!

Lin Fan finally knew of the true horrors of the Ancient One. To think that his strength and power did not decrease at all with every single punch he struck out. In fact, the Ancient One was getting ever stronger, as though he was gradually recovering his initial strength!

Seemed like it worked both ways.

While he was using the Ancient One to level up his physical body state, the Ancient One was using him to regain the power he had once lost!

And just then, a bright flash of red light burst over from a distance.

"Hmph, a small little descendant of that puny Phoenix and he dares to act so insolently before me? Yet another fool courting death." Upon catching sight of this red light, the Ancient One snuffed out in cold disgust. Sending out a single palm strike, he grabbed out at Chicky, who was flying over from a distance.

"CHICKY! YOU BETTER F*CKING GET THE HELL BACK! DON’T TELL ME THAT YOU’RE EVEN GOING TO DISOBEY MY WORDS NOW? IF YOU DON’T LISTEN TO ME RIGHT NOW, I’LL DISOWN YOU FOREVER!" Lin Fan was absolutely panicked as he howled out

Darting towards the Ancient One, Chicky’s heart was already blinded by hatred. By the time Lin Fan’s voice registered in his heart, he suddenly blanked out in the skies.

"GET THE HELL LOST…!" Seeing this, Lin Fan was at a loss for what to do. "ANCIENT ONE, YOUR OPPONENT’S ME!"

"Hmph, there’s no hurry…" The Ancient One was no fool either. Looking at how anxious this man was, he naturally knew that this little Phoenix hatchling must be something dear to him.

"CHICKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY…!"

At this moment, Chicky had finally come to his senses. But it was all too late.

That gigantic palm of the Ancient One that covered the entire skies had gripped Chicky within his hands. Just as Lin Fan was about to rush up, he halted immediately. His heart skipped a beat.

"Ancient One, let him go." Lin Fan told himself that he mustn’t panic right. That was right, Chicky was a Phoenix! He wouldn’t die just like this!

"Human, are you dumb? Do you really think that the Ancient One couldn’t tell how important this puny Phoenix is to you?" The Ancient One glared at Lin Fan.

"Oh, humans are complex ants indeed. Obviously, you guys try and plot to become the strongest ever, yet you let yourself be burdened with needless garbage things like emotions and the likes. With an attitude as such, you guys truly want to rule over the world? A fool’s dream indeed."

"Return me my arm, or else, this Phoenix shall…" The Ancient One laughed coldly while Chicky’s cries were getting louder.

"No…!" Upon hearing Chicky’s cries, Lin Fan’s heart was flustered for a moment. He immediately raised out his palm, indicating for the latter to stop.

Chicky was literally crying in tears from the tormenting pain.

‘Cuck…cuck…CUCKCUCKCUKOO!!!’ Chicky flung his small little head left and right as he looked at Lin Fan. It was as though he was telling Lin Fan, ‘Even though I’m in pain, it’s alright! Chicky won’t be afraid!’

"Chicky, no…!"

Just as the Ancient One was grabbing Chicky, he suddenly burst into a ball of flames. Within this ball of flames, an illusory figure of a Phoenix rose into the skies.

"Aha? The Phoenix’s Nirvana Rebirth? Do you even know the number of Phoenixes that had perished in my hands? Do you really think a small little hatchling of a Phoenix can succeed?" The Ancient One’s laugh was getting even colder.

With a single pinch of his fingers, the ball of flame which covered Chicky was extinguished immediately, as Chicky cried even loudly.

"My patience is limited. Return. Me. My. Arm." The Ancient One’s voice was frosty.

"Release him." Lin Fan’s breathing was starting to get hurried.

"Hmm? Oh, you really think you’re qualified to be bargaining with me right now?" With yet another cold snort, Chicky’s tormented state was deepened in the hands of the Ancient One.

However, at this moment, Chicky had already shut his own eyes. It was as though Chicky was trying his best to resist every single last bit of this unbearable pain without crying out.

Lin Fan’s heart was struggling incessantly. There were two voices within his head.

‘Give it to him! Chicky has been with you for so many years! He’s practically family! How can you let him die just like that?’

‘No! If you give it to him, Dongling Continent will perish! Furthermore, there’s no way he’s going to let Chicky off after that anyways!’

...

‘CUCKCUCKOO…!’ Chicky cried out.

Lin Fan looked over. However, all his saw was Chicky’s head shaking fervently. He did not want Lin Fan to save him.

Lin Fan lowered his head, his eyes blank.

"Chicky, there’s no way I wouldn’t save you."

Lin Fan had already made his decision. He would rescue Chicky before dragging the Ancient One together with him into the Heaven and Earth Smelt.

He had had a good long life after all.

He had the fun he had always wanted to have.

He even got himself a wife.

What else could he ask for…?

"Alright, I’ll give it to you…" Lin Fan raised his head and glared straight into the eyes of the Ancient One.

"HAHAHA. Good…" The Ancient One burst out laughing.

And just then, a voice boomed out from the skies.

‘HEAVEN AND EARTH SUPPRESSING FART!’

‘POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!’

In that instant, the dust clouds were unsettled as the Earth withered.

Upon hearing this voice and this familiar scene, Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy.

That yellow mist covered the Ancient One entirely.

"WHAT’S THIS THING? HOW IS IT SO SMELLY?!" The Ancient One’s face changed, unable to cope with this mysterious gas. With that, the arm that was gripping onto Chicky loosened up.

Seizing the opportunity, Lin Fan disappeared from where he was and caught onto Chicky immediately. Channelling lifeforce into Chicky, he then tossed the latter into the distance, "Grandmaster! Hold onto him for me…!"

"I am the fart god, Yao Wuxie! Thief, let go of that innocent barbeque chicken!" A man stood in the air imposingly, evidently proud of the outcome of his wondrous fart.

"B*STARD…!" The Ancient One broke out of his stupor. Looking at the person, he reached out to grab at him.

"HOW DARE YOU HUMILIATE ME! YOU DESERVE TO DIE!" The Ancient One howled.

Seeing this, Lin Fan was stumped. Just what sort of a situation was this!?

Just as Chicky was released, why was Yao Wuxie captured again?!

POOT!POOT!POOT!POOT!POOT!POOT!POOT!POOT!POOT!POOT!

But at that instance, Lin Fan’s jaws dropped agape.

To think that Yao Wuxie, who was captured just now, would fart towards the palms of the Ancient One repeatedly, repelling his arm away!

"This…!" Even Lin Fan was in some sort of disbelief right now.

Breaking free of the Ancient One’s arm, Yao Wuxie immediately escaped into the distance.

"Brother Lin! The opponent is too strong! That’s all I can do! You’ve got to depend on yourself for the rest of it! Your brother’s gonna make a run for it first!" In that instant, Yao Wuxie’s figure disappeared from the Heaven and Earth.

"Hahaha, to think that he’s still as cowardly as ever." Looking at the disappearing figure of Yao Wuxie, Lin Fan could not help but chuckle out gratefully.

...



Chapter 437: Ancient One's Attempt At Regrowing His Donger

Lin Fan had not expected Yao Wuxie to be THIS strong! There was nothing else he could use to compliment about that special body type, ‘One fart to stink up the entire world.’

And by the looks of it, it seemed that he was able to control it right now! Even though that heaven-destroying fart encompassed the entire place, the only one who suffered due to it was the Ancient One. That could be considered pretty much a tragedy for the Ancient One.

"B*STARD! FIRST YOU TRIBUTE AWAY MY DONGER, AND NEXT, YOU HUMILIATE ME! I SWEAR THAT IF I DON’T EXTERMINATE ALL OF YOU TODAY, I’LL NOT BE A…" The Ancient One was howling madly by now. He was close to the brink of imploding because of these ants. This was humiliation beyond words for the Ancient One.

"Swear that you’ll not be a…what?" Lin Fan’s mood was no longer as repressed as previously.

"Human, don’t you dare go overboard!" The Ancient One did not want to answer this question. This was because, actually, he himself didn’t know what he was.

This was a question that he had pondered on for a long time himself.

What was he? He was neither a demon nor a human. By the time the Ancient One had opened his eyes, he already existed as he did.

"Come on then! With just your d*ckface? Yours Truly can easily wallop ten of you at once!" Lin Fan mocked the Ancient One.

Seeing this Ancient One, Lin Fan could not help but recognize and acknowledge his strength. If this Ancient One were to fully recover, there would probably be no fight for sure.

But with the situation as it was, Lin Fan wasn’t afraid in the least bit.

What was the worst that could happen? Being forced to endure some whacking?

Thinking back at how Yours Truly started back then, he had actually made a name for himself out of being whacked!

BOOM!

With a single punch, the Ancient One’s aura shook the Heaven and Earth, as a tremendous force surged over. Lin Fan confronted this fist that was even larger than a punching bag without a single bit of fear.

‘Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +500,000,000’

...

"Ancient One, you want to kill Yours Truly with these feeble punches? Your bullsh*t is really getting out of hand, isn’t it?" Lin Fan was starting to get the picture.

Even if Yours Truly couldn’t take him down, he would wear him down. Lin Fan refused to believe that 300 rounds of fights couldn’t bring down this fella.

"INSOLENT FOOL!" The Ancient One was thoroughly riled. To think that this man could be so resilient!

"I’m proud of my insolence! Kill Yours Truly if you’ve got the guts to! This is what I absolutely love, the look on your face YEARNING to kill me yet you CANT... That HELPLESSNESS." Lin Fan swung his hips left and right while pointing a middle finger at the Ancient One.

How could someone as powerful as the Ancient One bear to allow a human to provoke him like this?!

"DIE!" The Ancient One had gone mad as he lunged out towards Lin Fan once more. This time around, the strength behind this punch was even greater than before.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!

The Earth cracked as Lin Fan was buried deep within by that single punch.

"HAHA! Human! Your pride has only served to enrage me. For that, your only path forward is death!" Looking at the situation below, the Ancient One’s lips curled into a smile.

That puny being should be proud of holding onto the battle till this point.

The Ancient One then turned his head into the distance. To think that those ants on the other end were actually managing to fend against the great army of the Beast Spirit World. How daring of them indeed!

But just then, a figure appeared right in the vision of the Ancient One once more.

"Ancient One, I take back my words from earlier. Your punch DOES pack a little strength." Floating gently before the Ancient One, Lin Fan curled his lips and grinned.

In reality, Lin Fan was thoroughly feigning through this right now. That punch from the Ancient One had nearly cost him his life. If not for the fact that he had the Mythical Parasol Tree and the Blood Sea’s boost from within him, he wouldn’t have been able to get back up again for sure.

...

On the other end of the battlefield, the masses who were fending against the massive army of the Beast Spirit World were having an easier time right now with the assistance of Yao Wuxie.

For Yao Wuxie, this was the most unbridled day of his entire life. The farts he had released in this day alone were already more than all those years combined.

Mie Qiongqi looked at this perverted looking fella. To think that he could kill this many with a single lift of his bottoms! There was a pressing question in Mie Qiongqi’s heart.

‘Doesn’t your anus hurt from all the farts?!’

...

Looking at all these beasts which disintegrated under a single fart of his, Yao Wuxie was filled with pride. At the same time, he looked over the distance and could only give it a good thumbs up.

‘Brother Lin is a true man indeed.’

In his eyes, Lin Fan was like a ball right now. Sent flying with every punch, he came flying back again once more. Repeating that feat over and over again, he was like an unkillable pesty cockroach.

...

"B*stard, how are you not dead?!" The anger within the Ancient One was burning so fierily that the flames were almost solidified. To think that this man would appear right before him after being sent flying time and again!

Even if the Ancient One was someone who was really patient, he was already on the brink of breaking apart from Lin Fan’s actions.

"Oh, I really want to die too, y’know? But, I wonder why I can’t do so. Perhaps if you would just add in THAT BIT more strength into your punches, I might REALLY get close to death?" Lin Fan replied with an apologetic look on his face.

"YOU…!" The Ancient One’s chest huffed up and down rapidly in rage. "Human, you have truly successfully riled me. Even if I were to regret this in the future, I’m going to make sure I will kill you!"

Suddenly, Lin Fan frowned. He could sense the aura of the Ancient One changing rapidly.

"ETERNAL BODY…!" The Ancient One howled as a tremendous amount of energy burst out.

A horrifying sight happened right before Lin Fan’s eyes.

The Ancient One’s Eternal Donger had already been tributed, hence that portion was in a castrated state.

"REGROWTH…!" The Ancient One howled. All the other parts of his bodies shared the burden together and began channeling a portion of their powers towards the groin area, trying to regrow that portion of his body.

The loss of that body part had caused the Ancient One to be in a shackled state for the entire duration previously.

"Human, you ought to feel proud of yourself." The Ancient One glared at Lin Fan coldly. Those malicious eyes shone with boundless brilliance.

By doing this, the Ancient One would never be able to regain his initial strength ever again. However, in order to take down this detestable human right before him, the Ancient One couldn’t care less at this moment.

To think that his big donger would have been tributed away by this human! There was no way he could find a new donger to replace the original one.

"HOLY SH*T…!" Lin Fan was stunned. This Ancient One was growing out a new donger!

"HAHA…HUMAN! TREMBLE WITH FEAR UNDER THE POWER OF THE ANCIENT ONE!" The Ancient One hollered furiously.

...

Lin Fan’s heart could not help but skip a beat at this scene before him. He could sense that something really bad was about to happen.

But at that moment, Lin Fan realized something else.

After losing the Eternal Donger, the Ancient One lost a myriad of skills that he could employ. However, for the sake of those skills, he had given up the potential of regaining his future strength in return to regrow this donger. This might be a blessing in disguise!

Lin Fan took in a deep breath.

Looking at that bare naked Ancient One, he was struggling within his heart.

So…disgusting! How could he bear to do it!

But as the wise ones would say, ‘It’s a dirty job, but someone’s got to do it.’

On doing this for the sake of Dongling Continent, he was sure that the future generations would not look down on him just because of this.

At that moment, Lin Fan made his move as he darted out towards the Ancient One.

"HAHA! Human, you wish to strike at me while I’m regenerating? That’s where you’re wrong! This is, in fact, the strongest state that I could be in right now! Your attacks at me would be nothing more than just tickles without any impact!" The Ancient One burst out laughing at Lin Fan’s naivety.

Even though he could not move at this moment, his defensive powers were at its definite peak. With energy coursing through his entire body, he was definitely way tougher than before.

Lin Fan looked at the Ancient One squarely. Blinking his eyes, he let out an exasperated look.

"Ancient One, don’t hold it against me. I didn’t wish to do this either."

...

"Huh?" The Ancient One was bewildered, not knowing what the other party meant.

But of course, it didn’t take him too long to understand…



Chapter 438: Whack You Till You Burst!

A single hand glowed with an abnormal radiance. Even though one might think that this hand looked weak and feeble at first glance, that was nothing but an illusion. It was as though with a single pinch by this hand, an entire world could be destroyed.

This hand was earnest and down to earth, filled with the sweat and tears of the common people. It was as though a country could have been nurtured on it, filled with life. Yet, it was canceled halfway through.

Now that there was Yao Wuxie assisting them, the people fending against the beasts in the distance could finally relax for a little longer. They could now spare some time to observe the situation over at Lin Fan's side.

"Eh? What's Little Fan up to?" Looking at the Lin Fan's figure in the void, Grandmaster Yan asked curiously.

"It looks like…it's that move…" At this sight, Zong Hentian's heart skipped a beat. He had once been subjugated by that single move. But, would it be effective against the Ancient One?

"Which move?" Everyone else asked curiously.

"The secrets of the Heavens shall not be revealed. You guys will know in a little while." Zong Hentian looked over at the distance in a daze. He had not seen his Junior Master Lin employ this earthshattering move for a really long time now.

Finally, it was time for his horizons to be broadened once more.

...

"Humans just don't know when to give up. Fair enough! I'll let you understand what giving up feels like in just a moment." Looking at how this human dared to charge at him without any regards for his death, the Ancient One laughed madly.

'Twisting Heaven and Earth!'

Lin Fan's hand stretched out. Facing that shimmering protective barrier of the Ancient One, Lin Fan's hand passed through it as though it was a harmless membrane, moving through without a single bit of resistance.

"How could this be…?" Seeing this, the Ancient One exclaimed in disbelief as his face changed.

How could this human penetrate his barrier?!

"Urgh…?" Suddenly, the Ancient One's face frowned. He had an unspeakable feeling.

"How about now?" It was a done deal as Lin Fan looked up at the Ancient One, wanting to see his expression.

"Human, you dare to humiliate me?" The Ancient One had thought that something terrible would happen to him. However, upon realizing that he was feeling nothing at all, he hollered out.

"I'll pinch…!"

"What about now?" Lin Fan raised his head to check on the Ancient One's expression once more. He wasn't too certain whether his move would work on the Ancient One. After all, he couldn't view the Ancient One the same way he as the other beings.

The body of the Ancient One wasn't something that could be nurtured from this world.

At this moment, the Ancient One did not reply Lin Fan. This was because the colour was slowly draining from his face. That pitch black face of his was slowly turning pale. Yet moments later, that pale shade was replaced by a blushing red.

'ARGH…!!!!!!'

A heavenly shattering howl rang out.

"LET GO…!" The Ancient One's body twisted. Those malevolent eyes changed slowly into cringing.

At this sight, Lin Fan's heart leaped with joy. Seemed like this move was working indeed!

He could only depend on himself right now. It was time to let these dirty hands of his cleanse the world into a state of purity.

"LET LOOSE…LET LOOSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" The Ancient One's voice no longer had the same authoritative tone as before. It was as though an important part of him was being controlled by the other party.

"I'LL PINCHHHHHHHHHHHHH…!"

"N-NO…! NOOOOOOOOOOOO! IT'LL BURST! IT'LL REALLY BURST…!!!" Those eyes of cringe were turning blank by the second as he broke out in cold sweat. He wanted to use his hands to support his crotch. However, the moment he let loose of both hands, he was overwhelmed by an unspeakable pain.

"Bloody hell! If I had known that this move would work earlier on, I would even have returned you the Eternal Donger! Goodness, you've truly caused Yours Truly to worry needlessly for a long time now!" Lin Fan sighed exasperatedly.

But it was true that he couldn't hedge all his bets on this one move.

After all, if it were useless, then his entire arsenal of moves might not work either.

"HUMAN, I'LL KILL YOU!!! N-NO…NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The burning rage of the Ancient One surged through the skies. However, his entire body shuddered immediately, as both his hands shook uncontrollably.

"DO YOU SUBMIT?" Lin Fan increased his grip strength.

"YES…YES I DO! YES!" The Ancient One was breaking out in cold sweat completely. He was the imperishable Ancient One, who had ruled over all of the ancient times! Since when had he ever been subjugated by anyone else? If this were just the pain, he could have severed that portion mercilessly without question. However, that wasn't the case right now.

This pain surged itself straight into his heart. No matter how hard he tried to suppress the pain with all the power in his body, nothing worked!

Just what sort of a move was this?! How is it so sick?!

"I'LL PINCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…!"

BAM!

"IT'S BURSTING…! IT'S BURSTINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG…!!!" The Ancient One's body was spasming intensely right now. It was as though he was undergoing some sort of full body attack.

'ARGH....!!!' That tragic cry was majestic, as it rang out through the entire sky.

"Hmph, Ancient One! Do you truly think that this is the end? Oh, we're just starting here!" Lin Fan's eyes shimmered. He had never felt so unbridled ever! If he were to let go of this chance right now, he might never be able to face such an opponent any longer!

'Black Tiger Steals Heart! GO…!'

Lin Fan gripped both of his fists as his eyes flashed with dominance.

BAM! BAM!

Lin Fan struck out at the Ancient One's chest. This massive strike sent a new amount of energies surging through the body of the Ancient One once more.

'ARGH…!' The Ancient One could not stop yelling. "HOW COULD THIS BE? MY CHEST…!"

Expanding…!

It was rapidly expanding!

'Ding…Black Tiger Steals Heart experience points +...'

Lin Fan was on a roll right now. Both of his arms were like Gatling guns, as he shot out at a rate of a few hundred times per second. By now, Lin Fan had already lost track of everything else. He even forgot how massive the chest of the Ancient One was becoming.

After all, the only thought on his mind right now was this, 'HAVE THEM BURST FROM BEING TOO BIG!'

"STOP IT…!!!" The Ancient One screamed out insanely. However, his body was no longer under his control. With pain surging from both ends of his body, the tormented Ancient One could barely even raise his head right now.

How was it like feeling pain for the first time in his entire life?

The Ancient One had never known the existence of pain. Even when he was severed into pieces, he had never once felt the sensation of even a stinging pain. But to think that even a simple move such as this could cause him to be in such a tormented state!

"I'LL WHACK…!"

Every single last bit of strength from Lin Fan burst out at this instant. Twisting Heaven and Earth and Black Tiger Steals Heart were completely bugged moves to begin with!

And the only person capable of enduring both attacks at one go was none other than the Ancient One.

If one were to ask what sort of sensation this was, even Lin Fan would be hard-pressed to give an answer. After all, the Ancient One should be the only candidate who could properly describe the arduous torment right now.

...

Those masses in the distance, who were fending off against the beasts, had long stopped everything they were doing, and were staring at Lin Fan's fight with agape mouths.

Those beasts, who weren't afraid of death, had stopped at that instance as well.

At that moment, the Heavens and Earth were completely silent.

"HOLY F*CK…!" Yao Wuxie was totally dumbfounded by the scene before him.

Zong Hentian had long known that these skills of his Junior Master Lin were strong, but he had never expected things to turn out as such!

To think that the imposing Ancient One from before was actually ballooning right now like a gigantic ball! If one had to use a word to describe how big this was, that would be… Erm…big… Very big... VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY BIG.

"Oh Ancient One, you truly mustn't begrudge me for any of this. After all, you've asked for all of it yourself. If you hadn't tried to regrow that donger, you wouldn't have given me this chance at all. Therefore, it's really all your fault, you know?" Lin Fan's fighting intent was unparalleled right now. He had not imagined that he could take down the Ancient One at all.

"I…!" The Ancient One wanted to speak up, but he was entirely overwhelmed by this ridiculous pain. He was repressed so badly that he couldn't even manage a full sentence.

Lin Fan wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead. Looking at this giganormous chest of the Ancient One, he was pretty speechless as well.

The Ancient One was not the Ancient One for nothing. Any other human being would have long exploded from this! To think that the Ancient One could balloon to such an extent without bursting apart! That was pretty amazing in its own sense.

...

"Ancient One, take my attack!" But even after all this, Lin Fan's combo was not done just yet.

'TRUE ORIGINS CRUSHING KICK!'

BAM!

This earthshattering kick found its way towards the crotch area of the Ancient One.

'ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!'

The Ancient One's cries were sorrowful and appalling. The entire world shook along with it. Lin Fan, on the other hand, was overwhelmed with happiness.

Victory was right before him!

The chance was here!

"Ancient One, take the final burst of Yours Truly!" Lin Fan's disposition changed immediately at that moment.

...

"Trainer Mode: Activated."



Chapter 439: Let Loose, My Small Little Universe!

"What is Little Fan really trying to do?" Looking at the scene in the distant skies, Senior Elder Wuya and the others were absolutely befuddled. They could not understand just what was happening that was causing all the disturbances over there.

Zong Hentian shook his head…

Grandmaster Yan shook his head…

Amongst this group of people, there were only two people who could comprehend the situation. Mie Qiongqi and Flame Overlord were the only people here who had been trained by Lin Fan before.

Back when they were being trained, they had felt that it was a form of humiliation. However, ever since their training was completed, they had discovered a deep secret longing for that marvellous sensation.

The two of them glanced at one another with looks of reminiscence in their eyes. At the same time, they could not contain this bubbling jealousy and envy over the fact that the Ancient One could get to enjoy this training right now.

How pleasurable was that sensation back then? How wonderful! It was a feeling which left one intoxicated.

Ever since they had been trained up, they had always hoped that they would get to experience the same sensation once more. However, they never ever got the chance again.

"Ancient One, Yours Truly is going to train you up today! It’s time for you to understand that this place is not one where you can act so brazenly!" Lin Fan himself had gone into full brazen mode.

Right now, the Ancient One was like a fish on the chopping board, ready to be sliced into sashimi. If the Ancient One could endure through this, Lin Fan might as well uninstall his system and surrender. He could even stretch out his neck for the Ancient One to chop off or play as he willed.

But, with the Ancient One fallen right now without any room for resistance after receiving Lin Fan’s three grandest moves, this was the best scenario Lin Fan could ever hope for.

No matter how strong one was, they had better submit obediently under the three grand moves.

Lin Fan initially had intentions to smelt the Ancient One. However, he decided against it eventually.

If something weren’t his, it still wouldn’t be his at the end of the day.

The Eternal Arm, for example, had been smelted completely, yet the Ancient One could still manage to snatch if back from Lin Fan.

What if the mummy of the Ancient One turned up one day and said sh*t like, ‘The Ancient One was born from me and shall always be mine…!’

If something like that happened, then Lin Fan would be bloody shift*cked!

BUT, if the training were to work out and he could keep the Ancient One under his wings, then things would be really easy from here on forth.

The Ancient One was still howling terribly. Each time his eyes glared at Lin Fan, they were filled with extreme hatred, as though he could not wish to tear this person apart. But in that instant, those expressions had disappeared. In their place was a blankness and dazedness, as though he had lost every single last bit of hope towards this world.

A sense of melancholy began to emit from the Ancient One’s body, and encompassed the Heaven and Earth.

In that instant, Lin Fan’s eyes sparkled.

The final ultimate technique of training had pretty lofty requirements.

One’s focus needed to be at its utmost peak in order to properly unleash that final ultimate technique to its fullest potential.

With a long whip in his hand, an aura that depicted Lin Fan’s superiority in this world burst out from his body.

"Ancient One! Be prepared to enjoy the best moments of your life in this world! A single whip from Yours Truly would definitely bring you an immense pleasure! In fact, you may even start to doubt the meaning of life itself! However, you shall never get the same chance to enjoy this ever again!" Lin Fan burst out laughing as he struck a pose.

Pulling on the whip with both hands, he swung his arm.

‘One Whip To Rule The World!’

In that instant, Lin Fan danced in the air. To think that he would unleash the ultimate move straight away!

BAM!

As if it had a life of its own, that long whip covered the entire sky. Right now, it seemed that the sky was filled with only that dancing whip.

Seeing this, everyone on the other side of the battlefield were stunned. They had never seen a skill like this in their life! In fact, they didn’t even know what sort of a move Lin Fan was going to employ to destroy this Ancient One!

"DAMN IT…!" The Ancient One howled. But at that moment, the whip had landed on him.

Like an electric current surging out, it coursed its way through the Ancient One’s body.

‘AHHHH…!’ The Ancient One moaned. This voice alone had Lin Fan shrugging in cringe momentarily. To think that the Ancient One would make such an indecent sound!

PSCHHHHHHHHHHH! PSCHHHHHHHHHHHH! PSCHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

The dancing whips cracked as they landed on the body of the Ancient One repeatedly.

The Ancient One was being trained up by Lin Fan’s wanton whips. At the same time, the heart of the Ancient One was struggling with immense turmoil and resistance.

Coiling itself in the air, that whip spun repeatedly before coiling itself on that giganormous chest of the Ancient One tightly.

Lin Fan’s jaws nearly dropped apart. Since when did this move exist?!

But, Lin Fan was not in the state to ponder about this anymore. As long as he could train up the Ancient One completely, it was all worth it.

"INSOLENT…!" Even though the Ancient One was rendered helpless by that ridiculous pain, he was entirely riled by the way this human was humiliating him!

"Eh? You still wanna talk back? Seems like you’re not being schooled well enough. Time to turn it up a notch!" Looking at how the Ancient One still dared to be impertinent, Lin Fan was going to go all out.

After all, everything that Yours Truly was doing was for the sake of Dongling Continent! Lin Fan knew that the Grandmaster and the others would definitely understand his intent.

Lin Fan turned around and faced the masses on the other end of the battlefield. However, all he saw was everyone covering their eyes with a single hand. It was as though the show that they were watching was too blinding for their innocent eyes.

Yet, curiosity still got the better of them, as they were peeking out from the gaps of their fingers.

‘Hais…’ Lin Fan shook his head. How could they not understand him at all? While Lin Fan could not help but acknowledge that this WAS a little cringeworthy, it was all for the sake of justice!

Lin Fan then adjusted his mental frame once more as he focused all his attention on the training.

As he continued the training session, he was discovering new ways and methods to carry out the training as well.

The Dao of training was one that was varied and fluid. Filled with all sorts of difficult moves, every single one of those stances were unleashed to their fullest potential with Lin Fan’s Trainer ability.

In fact, Lin Fan could even bring in the knowledge of training from his previous life and employ it here and now.

Seemed like the effect wasn’t that bad indeed. After all, the Ancient One was howling repeatedly.

Even though he seemed enraged and riled by all of this, Lin Fan knew that the Ancient One must still be feeling really good about this on the inside. It was just that he had yet to come to terms with himself.

"Ancient One, you must face yourself! Slowly relish this feeling in your heart! Do not resist. The more you resist, the more shame you will feel unnecessarily." Lin Fan replied calmly.

"YOUR MOTHER’S FART…!" The Ancient One continued to holler. Yet, he did not have any bit of resistance left. In the hands of this detestable human, he was nothing more than a puppet to be tortured, humiliated, and whipped.

"Holy f*ck…! Ancient One, it’s alright. You don’t have to trust in the words of Yours Truly. Yours Truly will make you see the light!"

"And I WHIP!"

"And I BIND!"

"And I LEASH!"

"And I TWIST and TURN!"

"And I go for your ROOT!"

"And finally, I’ll show you the WAY! All the way DOWN!"

...

Lin Fan was giving it his absolute all. The strain on his body was huge as well when he used the Trainer skill. In fact, it was constantly depleting his True Energy from within. However, in order to tame this Ancient One, Lin Fan could use nothing but the strongest of skills.

No matter what, he had to break through the defenses of this Ancient One!

In that instant, the skies changed…

There was nothing but the cracking of whips in the air.

Of course, along with those tragic wails of the Ancient One.

Lin Fan’s eyes were absolutely cringing right now as well. However, for the sake of justice, for the sake of everything…no matter how cringeworthy this was, he had to carry on!

Looking at how the expression of the Ancient One was gradually changing, Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy.

The time was now!

‘ONE WHIP TO RULE THE WORLD!’

"Ancient One! Face yourself! This is the true you!" Lin Fan looked at the Ancient One, who was being whipped up, down, left, and right.

"I-I…I…!" The Ancient One’s breathing was getting hurried. He wanted to spit at this human.

Yet, the craving in his heart was getting ever stronger.

It was begging him.

‘No…’

‘Don’t stop…’

‘Please continue whipping me…’



Chapter 440: Heavenly Emperor Yuan

"The final whip…!" Lin Fan’s chest huffed. This was the toughest opponent he had to train up so far. But, no matter how hard it was, Lin Fan had to ensure that this Ancient One would submit completely under his whip of love.

‘Twisting Heaven and Earth’, ‘Black Tiger Steals Heart’, ‘True Origins Crushing Kick’ and ‘Trainer’ were the four truly great and devious skills that Lin Fan possessed right now in his opinion. Each of them was a boundless existence in their own rights.

But, if one really had to make a choice to choose the sickest of them all, it would undoubtedly be Trainer of course.

‘PSCHHHHHHHHH!’

Ripping through the void, the crack of the whip rang through the entire sky. The whip’s tail gleamed with a bright glow, landing on the body of the Ancient One, as though it was about to tear through the Heavens.

The Ancient One’s body shivered uncontrollably, as a heaven-shattering sound boomed out across the world.

"Seems like it’s finally done." Looking at the state the Ancient One was in right now, Lin Fan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

The Ancient One only had himself to thank for all of this. After all, if he hadn’t done himself in recklessly, Lin Fan wouldn’t have gotten this chance to make a comeback.

Even if he were able to survive under the mighty blows of the Ancient One and continuously improve the state of his physical body, there would still only be one remaining outcome: Both of them unable to take down the other.

But now, things were different. It was the uprising of the commoner right now. What an elegant and pleasurable feeling this was!

From this battle, Lin Fan was also enlightened about a deep meaning of life: ‘One must never push themselves to the edge recklessly.’ And of course, this Ancient One was none other than the Reckless King right now.

As the final whip landed on the body of the Ancient One, Lin Fan heaved a great sigh of relief.

It was all over.

"No…don’t stop…please go on…" Suddenly, the Ancient One’s voice groaned out. There was a hint of desperation in his tone, as though he couldn’t bear to leave this training session.

The moment Lin Fan heard this, he was stumped. However, he let out a long sigh right afterward, "Oh well, you’ve been such a respectable and admirable opponent. It’s good that you’re finally able to face your true inner self and become the true you you were meant to be."

PSCHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

In order to satiate the needs of the Ancient One, Lin Fan disregarded his own personal fatigue and continued whipping down one after another.

Between the Heaven and Earth, the sounds of the Ancient One were continuous and unbearable. That imposing and mighty figure was no longer existent in this world right now.

In its place was an Ancient One who was reborn, a new man who was true and honest to his own feelings and emotions.

Looking at how much enjoyment the Ancient One was deriving from this, Lin Fan could not help but wonder, ‘Was it really THAT pleasurable to be trained? It did seem a little tempting to be able to be trained up for a good round right now.’

But alas, it was a pity that he couldn’t employ the same skill on himself. What a tragedy!

...

Time passed by the seconds…

"Alright, the training shall end now. I’m almost dead beat right now." Lin Fan plopped his bum down onto the ground. Keeping the whip back into his storage, he breathed heavily.

‘Ding…Congratulations on training up the Ancient One whose strength is only at 1%.’

‘Ding…Experience points +5,000,000,000’

‘Ding…Congratulations on leveling up.’

‘Ding…Utmost Celestial Full Cultivation state.’

...

Upon hearing the announcement of his leveling up, Lin Fan was exhilarated. At the same time, he could not help but be reminded of how strong the Ancient One was with just 1% of his original powers. If this guy were to truly regain all of his strength, what a terrifying existence he would be!

He wondered how the Supreme Being and the God of War managed to sever this guy’s body apart back then.

The Ancient One glared at Lin Fan begrudgingly, evidently lusting for more pleasure. However, looking at those two giganormous lumps on his chest, he couldn’t help but sigh out, wondering when the swelling would finally go away.

"Everyone, come on over. It’s all over." Lin Fan shouted over to the distant battlefield in an exhausted tone.

Those who were in charge of fending off against the beast army were bewildered, not knowing the meaning behind Lin Fan’s words. The Ancient One was still alive and kicking right there! How could he say that everything was over?!

But just then, they realized that the Ancient One was laying there lifelessly. He no longer had that fearsome outlook from earlier on. With that, they set their hearts at ease and headed over to Lin Fan.

‘CUCKOO…!’ Chick,y who had recovered by now, was the first to leap over to Lin Fan’s side. He then hopped up onto his favorite spot on Lin Fan’s shoulders and rubbed his head against his Master’s cheek. Looking over at the Ancient One, he tossed his little chicken head, snorting coldly in complete contempt.

‘How dare you whack Your Chicky here! Look where you are now? Still subjugated by my big old bro obediently!’

...

"Little Fan, just what’s going on right here?" Grandmaster Yan asked in bewilderment.

"Oh, it’s nothing much. This Ancient One had never ever experienced the feeling of parental love since he was young, as he was an orphan. I have converted him over with the power of love. He now knows of his wrongdoings." Lin Fan replied.

"?!?!?" Grandmaster Yan’s face was stumped.

"Ancient One, do you acknowledge your mistakes?" Seeing the look of disbelief on Grandmaster Yan’s face, Lin Fan shouted over to the Ancient One.

"Yes, I do." The Ancient One was laying there silently, slowly reminiscing the pleasant feeling from before.

"Grandmaster, see that? I told you, I’ve converted him over. Do you believe me now?" Lin Fan replied with a straight face.

Grandmaster Yan could not keep his gaze away from those two giganormous lumps on the Ancient One’s chest. He then looked at Lin Fan and sighed eventually.

Only a dumbass would believe those words of his. But it was alright. Everything was fine now. He did not have to ask what went down exactly any longer.

"Brother Lin, you’re truly too cool! I, Yao Wuxie, have never submitted to anyone in my life before. But to you, I’m hands down with respect!" Yao Wuxie circled around Lin Fan and blew his horn.

Lin Fan chuckled, "Seems like you’ve gained quite a bit in the period of time I haven’t seen you, eh? I’m sure you know about the situation back home by now, eh? Don’t blame me. It was all for your own good."

"Brother Lin, don’t say that. I know all about it. If not for you, there wouldn’t be the me of today. Perhaps, I might still be lazying around at home, awaiting death." Yao Wuxie had already returned home and found out the truth about everything. As for the position of the Yao Family’s Head, Yao Wuxie had no intentions of taking over at all. All he wanted was a casual life. Furthermore, all those brothers of his were really chummy with him right now.

After he had his fill of fun here outside for a little longer, he would head back home and return to his life of lazying around and awaiting death.

"Little Fan, now that all of this is over, shall we head back?" Grandmaster Yan commented.

Lin Fan shook his head. "No, it’s not over just yet. There’s still one final person to deal with."

Everyone paused for a moment, apparently shocked and confused. Now that even the Ancient One had been subjugated, who else could there be?

"Heaven’s Will, come on out! After watching the entire show for such a long time, shouldn’t you show some manners?" Lin Fan hollered into the skies.

‘Heaven’s Will?’ Everyone was stunned for a moment, as the color drained from their faces. They had a really ominous feeling about this.

"He is not the Heaven’s Will." He Yuhan stood out with a solemn face, "Heavenly Emperor Yuan, come on out!"

...

BOOM!

Suddenly, the Heavens shook. Within the boundless void, lightning crackled and boomed as a massive resolute willpower pummelled down from the Heavens.

"HAHA…Entertaining... It was a really entertaining show indeed." The voice that boomed out shook the entire world.

"You despicable sh*t, Heavenly Emperor Yuan!" He Yuhan’s tone was frosty.

Back then, in order to receive his help to take down the Ancient One together, she had agreed to allow the Heavenly Emperor Yuan access into the inner cores of the Heaven’s Will. That move allowed him to access the limitless pool of energy between the Heaven and Earth, forcefully limiting the cultivation state of the Ancient One.

But little did she expect that once the Ancient One was severed into pieces, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan would take the chance to devour her! What a damned move that was!

"HAHAHA…! If not for the fact that the Supreme Being had discovered my scheme and stopped me earlier on back then, you wouldn’t even be talking right now. Alright, stop hiding yourselves now as well, Supreme Being, God of War, God of Battle, Reincarnation Emperor! All of you, get the hell out! I know that you guys have been keeping your consciousness alive to secretly live on ignobly for thousands of years. It’s time to put an end to all of that!"

Gradually, illusory figures appeared in the void one by one. Before long, those figures started materializing as well.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Fan was started to feel tense.

With that, a frightening scene occurred…



Chapter 441: All Of You Have Got A Point

Within that group of people…

Suddenly, a burst of an abstruse aura burst out from Mie Qiongqi and Meng Hao. This aura was full of vicissitude and was long drawn.

BOOM!

Thousands of miles away, the tribute statue of the Founder Ancestor of Glory Sect began shaking tremendously. A beam of light shot out from the Tribute Sculpture, all the way into the Heavens, tearing through every single layer of void it passed through. In the blink of an eye, it appeared right in the face of everyone right here.

Looking at the scene before him, even Lin Fan was astounded.

The God of Battle, Meng Hao.

The Reincarnation Emperor, Mie Qiongqi.

And to think that the Founder Ancestor of Glory Sect would be the God of War!

As for the Supreme Being…

‘Ving…’

Lin Fan realized at this moment that the Supreme Being Token was vibrating violently within his storage, desperately trying but unable to get out.

Lin Fan chuckled before taking out the token.

As a bright light flashed, the Supreme Being Token floated before everyone, as an illusory figure appeared gradually.

Lin Fan looked at the two illusory figures behind Mie Qiongqi and Meng Hao, shuddering within his heart at the same time. Just that aura alone was enough to raise everyone’s goosebumps.

At that moment, everyone awaited with bated breath. They were completely dumbfounded by the scene before them.

This feeling of shock was especially profound for Grandmaster Yan and Senior Elder Wuya. The moment they caught sight of the illusory figure of their Founder Ancestor, they had an urge to prostrate and kneel down in respect.

To think that their Founder Ancestor was lying within the tribute sculpture all this while!

And at this moment, Grandmaster Yan finally understood the reason why the tribute sculpture could continue to impart down skills and items. This was the very reason behind it.

...

"HAHAHA…! Look at the four of you living such miserable lives! Even the great Reincarnation Emperor, who was rumored to have an indestructible consciousness, couldn’t escape the eventual outcome of falling." Within the void, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan, who had devoured the Heaven’s Will, burst out into a wild laughter. He looked at the four of them in absolute mockery.

For a moment, there was a reminiscing look in his eyes. But that was replaced by those jeering eyes almost immediately.

"Heavenly Emperor, what’s your purpose with all this?" Even though the Supreme Being was only a single strain of consciousness right now, he looked up into the sky at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan with dominance.

"Purpose? Hope, of course! Look at all of you guys, submitting to a fate of living as cowards and wimps… Willing to live life eternally just like a bunch of spineless worms trapped in this world, only able to survive ignobly in secret!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan was extremely emotional right now.

"Heavenly Emperor, it’s enough…can’t you see the facts before your very eyes? Those are not existences that we can hope to fight against. We’ve fought through so many trials and tribulations just to make it back here from the Upper World and lay down all these restrictions and confinements. What was all of that for? THAT was to retain this last bit of hope we have!" The illusory figure of the God of War spoke out.

"SHUT UP! You have battled through eternity, never looking back even once. You were never someone who would bow down to adversities! But, look at you now! You’re not worthy to even carry the title of God of War any longer! You’re weak now... WEAK! You’re no longer the God of War I used to know! Today, my aim shall be to break through all of these confinements right here and now! I shall take the human race with me to re-enter the Upper World once more, so as to build a brand-new future!" The Heavenly Emperor glared at the four of them.

...

Lin Fan was totally stunned right now. He could totally catch any balls in this conversation these guys were having.

"ALL OF YOU GUYS SHUT UP!" Lin Fan just had to interrupt in. He was getting a big headache just hearing out these guys.

That holler surprised all five people who were arguing, as they stopped their conversation and cast all of their glances at Lin Fan.

"Junior, this is not an affair in which you can interfere." The Reincarnation Emperor looked at Lin Fan, his voice mighty and authoritative.

Having experienced the path of life, death, and reincarnation time and again, it was as though this man had already attained the peak of the Dao, and could understand every single logic within the Heaven and Earth.

"Forget it man. The four of you are just a strain of consciousness each, aren’t you? What do you guys want? This guy here has devoured the Heaven’s Will… DEVOURED. He’s a whole, full being right now. If he wants to kill you guys, you would be right in the palms of his hands!" The thing that Lin Fan hated the most was other people acting out bullsh*t right in front of him.

And to him, each and every one of these people right here was going overboard with their bullsh*t.

A God of War.

A God of Battle.

A Reincarnation Emperor.

A Supreme Being.

And one more Heavenly Emperor Yuan.

What the f*ck? Each of their titles was even more imposing than the other.

Thinking of how he didn’t even have a title for himself, Lin Fan was feeling a little sad. Seemed like if he had the chance, he definitely had to give himself a really cool title as well.

"HAHA…!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan laughed maniacally in the sky, "Look at the four of you! You can’t even see the facts as clearly as a single young man here! He’s right. All of you guys are just a single strain of consciousness each! None of you guys can stop me if Your Majesty wants to break through this world right here and now!"

"Young man, fight with me against the Upper World! The human race needs hope, and these guys here no longer have any bit of courage left. They’re wimps! They can no longer remain as the hope of the human race, nor are they the glorious saints that should watch over the human race any longer. These guys are pathetic worms who’re just struggling to protect their pitiful lives, sh*tty cowards who’re struggling in this world…" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan glared at Lin Fan fervently, his heart burning with anticipation.

"Alright…" Lin Fan replied calmly to the Heavenly Emperor Yuan.

"HAHAHAHA…! FINALLY! SOMEONE GETS ME! THERE’S FINALLY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS MY THOUGHTS! The four of you aren’t even comparable to a single young man right here! You guys have truly lived your hundreds of thousands of years of life for nothing! You fools…!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan reared his head back and laughed.

The four supreme beings glared at Lin Fan and shook their heads helplessly, "Do you know of the consequences of breaking through the barrier of this world? That means that if anyone were to break through beyond the greater celestial full cultivation state in the future, they would be able to enter the Upper World. That Upper World is the land which nightmares are made of! Humans are nothing but mere ants there! That place shall be the place where all humans are annihilated!"

"SHUT UP, YOU FOUR COWARDS! How could the fate of Xuanhuang World be controlled by sh*ts like you guys? Do you know why all the other races of the other worlds are able to head up to the Upper World repeatedly without being sealed off? That’s because they understand the true meaning of rebellion! They know that they’ve got to fight back! But, all you guys know is to avoid and hide! Look at all these other people here! They’ve all been shrouded in ignorance, unable to choose their own fates for all of their lives! The very reason for that is the selfishness of the four of you! How dare you impose your own ideals forcefully on all of these people?" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan yelled.

The four supreme beings gripped their fists tightly, "Heavenly Emperor, what you’re trying to do is to push Xuanhuang World into a treacherous abyss! Don’t you know that that will only serve to hasten the annihilation of Xuanhuang World?’

"Out of the multitudes of worlds out there, do you know how many worlds have been destroyed?! The Jingang World! Dragon World! Dancheng World…! DON’T TELL ME THAT YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT THE DESTRUCTION OF ALL THESE OTHER WORLDS AS WELL!?" By now, the Supreme Being was howling at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan in rage.

"Cowards are cowards. All of them have died with no regrets. That’s because they’ve died trying. THEY’VE DIED FIGHTING, while the four of you are playing with this world in your palms just because of your own selfish intents. At the end of the day, people here wouldn’t even know why and how they were destroyed! They would die in the dark without any single bit of struggle or resistance…!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan replied.

...

Lin Fan did not want to reply too much. No matter who was right or wrong, none of it mattered to him. No one could judge either of the two parties in a situation as such.

If Lin Fan truly had to choose, he felt that both sides had their own rights and reasons.

Fate was meant to be seized by one’s very own hands and not escaped from. If one were to be escaping fate continuously just to buy themselves a little more time, they might as well fight to their deaths and duel the fates.

However, the supreme beings had their case as well. If one knew that it was a dead end no matter what, why bother resisting? They should just let it end as such as well.

If he had to endure watching everyone close to him die tragically, Lin Fan could definitely not accept that fate either.

"That’s enough, Heavenly Emperor Yuan. Return the Heaven’s Will to me." At this moment, He Yuhan, who had remained silent all this while, had finally spoken up.

She was manifested from a single strain of the Heaven’s Will’s consciousness. There was no one else in this world who knew about Xuanhuang World better than her. In order to seize back the Heaven’s Will, she had purposefully chosen a man to be blessed by the Heavens. The reason for grooming him was all so that she could make use of his strength.

The Heavenly Emperor Yuan looked at He Yuhan, "Heaven’s Will, how have you fallen like this? For your own sake, you would rather choose cowardice along with these four people?’

"Polluting the Heaven’s Will is a crime punishable by death. Just that action alone would render every single last bit of your intents wrong." He Yuhan stepped forth, one step at a time.

She turned around and looked at Xia Youtian. That petite face of hers could not help but reveal an apologetic look.

"Brother Xia, I’m sorry. I hope you do not blame me for this." Suddenly, He Yuhan’s body rose into the air and turned into a bright glow of light.

"Sister Yuhan! What are you talking about…!" Xia Youtian could feel his heart wrenching right now. It was as though he could sense that his Sister Yuhan was about to leave him.

As though he was interlinked with He Yuhan, the energy from Xia Youtian began to leak outwards as well…

...



Chapter 442: The Shameless Lin Fan

"Brother Xia, I’m sorry…I’ve just been using you all this while…I’ve got my calling to follow…" Streams of tears poured down from both sides of He Yuhan’s eyes. However, even that did not stop the motion of her hands; she had to seize back the Heaven’s Will no matter what.

"No…I don’t blame you. Everything I have was given to me by you. No matter what you do, I’ll never ever blame you for it. BUT PLEASE, I’M BEGGING YOU, DON’T EVER LEAVE ME…!" Xia Youtian cried out towards He Yuhan. He could gradually feel an important part of his heart disappearing by the second.

It was as though once this portion had dissipated entirely, Sister Yuhan would disappear from his heart entirely as well.

"Brother Xia…" He Yuhan turned around to look at Xia Youtian’s heart wrenched face, and could not help but reveal a look of reluctance as well. Memories of their time together for the past tens of years began to scroll through her mind like a movie reel.

Bit by bit... Back from when they were kids all the way till now…

"Yuhan, after you leave, I won’t live in this world any longer either. I like you. I truly do. Have you ever felt the same for me?’ Xia Youtian was more of an oblivious guy when it came to matters of the heart usually. However, he was exceptionally sober right now. If he did not spill out his feelings right now, he had a feeling he might not get the chance to again.

Upon hearing these words, the tears began pouring down the beautiful face as she nodded repeatedly, "Liked… I loved you. And even now, I love you more than ever. It’s just that I..."

BAM!

Suddenly, something shocking happened.

Someone had punched the living daylights out of the emotional He Yuhan, sending her flying towards the side of Xia Youtian.

"Bloody hell! How f*cking touching was that? Even Yours Truly is nearly touched to tears by you lovebirds! Since you like him so much, then don’t bloody leave!" Lin Fan could not resist appearing right before He Yuhan and punching her towards Xia Youtian.

"What are you doing?!" Looking at the half swollen cheek on his fainted Sister Yuhan’s face, Xia Youtian hollered out to Lin Fan.

"Oh! It’s alright! Don’t worry about it! You don’t have to thank me for it! This is something I feel I ought to do! Just take care of her nicely… That’ll do for repayment!’ Lin Fan waved his hand dismissively. Of course, one should not harbour the need for gratitude when one did good deeds.

Looking at everything, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan let out a grin, "Indeed, you’re the man I have chosen."

Lin Fan took a look at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan. He then turned around to the four supreme beings.

"Well, I think all of you guys have got a point. Both sides have their reasons." Lin Fan said while standing in between both parties.

"Heavenly Emperor Yuan, you said that the four of them are cowards. But to me, that’s not the case. All of them are working hard and diligently in their own ways. Otherwise, why would they be grooming these future generations and descendants of Xuanhuang World, right? As for your stand, I agree as well. One should definitely fight for their own fates. Otherwise, I’m sure everyone would be indignant dying without even knowing the reason how or why they died."

"But, I’ve just got one thing to say. Lin Fan isn’t a man who would push those that he wishes to protect into the dangers of the abyss, and watch them struggle from within. Therefore, I am going to shoulder this burden on my very own and fight against fate. At times, quantity doesn’t matter. No matter how many people you bring along with you to the Upper World, it’s useless. All you need is a single peerless prodigy that the world might not produce even in a billion years to face it all."

"And of course, I’ve got to humbly admit that I am that peerless prodigy genius that even a billion years may not produce. Return them the Heaven’s Will. I shall follow you along to the Upper World and fight against this tragic fate." Lin Fan replied confidently.

Upon hearing these words, every single person’s jaws dropped entirely.

They had seen all sorts of shamelessness in their lives. But for someone to be this blatantly bullsh*ttingly shameless?! This was a first!

Even boasting should have a limit, shouldn’t it?!

A prodigy genius that the world might not even produce in a billion years…! This…!

The Heavenly Emperor Yuan stared at Lin Fan in absolute daze, then finally burst out laughing, "In-interesting…! INTERESTING INDEED! HAHAHA! But on what grounds am I to believe you?"

"Oh, on the basis that I, Lin Fan, alone, have tamed the Ancient One. Let me ask you… Without borrowing the strength of the Heaven’s Will, is the current you even a match for the Ancient One?" Lin Fan asked.

Heavenly Emperor Yuan glanced over at the Ancient One, who was behaving weirdly in the distance, before turning his head back to Lin Fan. His brows creased, as though he was deep in thought

"Heavenly Emperor Yuan, you don’t even have to think about it. Come, I’ll just let you have a bout with my Ancient One to let you understand. At times, the only way to resolve a dispute is through a good fight. You’re someone from the Xuanhuang World. Thus, I believe that your intents and actions are all for the sake of the Xuanhuang World as well. The only difference is your standpoint. This is just an issue of an ideological difference, that’s all."

"Furthermore, it’s been 10,000 years since you last entered the Upper World. I’m sure even you yourself would not know how the situation is like up there right now. Even if you break through the Heavenly Barrier right now, all you’ll be doing is sending everyone to their deaths needlessly. On the other hand, I, Lin Fan, am willing to head up there with you to check out the situation." Lin Fan continued.

"Ancient One, come here." Lin Fan beckoned over to the Ancient One, who was laying on the ground.

BOOM!

"Yes, Master?" Instantly, the Ancient One flipped his body over and leaped before Lin Fan, asking with a look of pandering.

Looking at how the terrifying Ancient One would bow down respectfully towards a human, Heavenly Emperor Yuan’s mind was riddled with thoughts, as his face could not hide his disbelief.

Lin Fan looked at the Ancient One before nodding his head in acknowledgment. Patting his storage, a large amount of Biggras flew out and entered the tummy of the Ancient One.

BOOM!

Instantly, that Biggras that entered the Ancient One’s body released their medicinal effects.

The initially calm Ancient One instantly turned berserk. That pitch-black skin of his was flushed tomato red right now. Even those eyes that were filled with flattery were now replaced with immense desire.

"HUFF…HUFF…!!!" The Ancient One breathed heavily and hurriedly before Lin Fan. Each breath was steaming hot.

Lin Fan was really pleased with the state of the Ancient One right now. After swallowing this many Biggras, his fighting strength should be doubled at least.

But under the effect of the Biggra, if he didn’t release this strength, the Ancient One might truly go mad.

"Okay, go and penetrate him…!" Lin Fan’s finger was pointed at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan in the sky, whose face was long petrified.

‘GRAWWWWWWWHHHHH…!!!’ The Ancient One howled out and shook his head fervently.

In the eyes of the Ancient One, that mighty and imposing Heavenly Emperor Yuan was nothing more than a deep, dark, boundless cave right now.

It was a really alluring and attractive cave, seducing one to enter at all costs.

In that instant, the Ancient One’s massive body leaped towards the Heavenly Emperor Yuan wildly. At the same time, those two giganormous lumps of meat at his chest swung left and right, slamming against each other and giving off a pleasant bouncing sound.

The fusion of sweat and water.

The clashing of strength and Dao.

This was going to be a moment of a HUGE RELEASE.

Looking at the state of the Ancient One, all four supreme beings let out a look of disbelief, unable to comprehend the scene at all.

As for the Heavenly Emperor Yuan, his heart could only pound furiously while looking at the rapidly approaching Ancient One.

...

Lin Fan turned his gazes towards the four supreme beings, "The four of you should calm down as well. There’s always a way to resolve issues. If you guys had really gone head-on with him just now, this battle might truly have been unavoidable."

"Reincarnation Emperor, God of War... The two of you are not thinking of taking over their bodies by leaving your strains of consciousness within them, are you?" Lin Fan chuckled while asking.

"What sort of beings do you take us as! We’re only grooming them. Once everything is settled, our consciousness will gradually dissipate." Upon hearing that question, the God of War spoke up immediately. He was the great God of War after all. How would he be doing such evil acts that veered off from the path of the righteous?

"That’s good then." Lin Fan laughed before looking into the distance.

The scene that was about to unfold would definitely be spectacular.

The Ancient One, who had popped down all those Biggras, no longer wanted to kill.

All he wanted to do was to poke someone.

Poke and pound harshly, releasing every last bit of desire within his heart.

Lin Fan wondered if the Heavenly Emperor Yuan could take it.



Chapter 443: A New Hope Or Despair

At that moment, a situation was unfolding over at the side of the Ancient One.

"JUST WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HAPPENING? WHY HAS THE ANCIENT ONE TURNED THIS WAY?!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan was yelling madly, trying his best to dodge fully. The current Ancient One was leaving the Heavenly Emperor Yuan in fear.

This was a complete beast here!

Why had the mighty Ancient One, who had conquered over the ancient times, become as such?!

BAM…!

With a maddened howl, the Ancient One slapped his palms together, trapping the Heavenly Emperor Yuan within.

"HAHA…! I’VE GOT YOU NOW… HEHEHE…!" Those burning red eyes of the Ancient One were sparkling brightly.

Like an agile snake, his tongue, which was filled with lust, made its way towards the cheek of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan. Ever so lightly, he gave it a gentle lick. But, this single lick was like a downpour of rain for the Heavenly Emperor Yuan.

The Heavenly Emperor Yuan was completely petrified right now. Since when had the Ancient One turned this sick?! He was practically a savage right now!

Within those burning eyes of the Ancient One, Heavenly Emperor Yuan could make out the boundless desire.

This was not good…! The Ancient One was definitely having stray thoughts right now!

Suddenly, a big lumpy object appeared before the eyes of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan.

"Mmm…!" The Ancient One had placed the head of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan in between those swollen lumps that were created by Lin Fan and, having him motorboating between them.

"HOLY F*CK…!" In the past 10,000 years, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan had yet to spout out any vulgarities. However, he was completely blown out of his mind by the situation right now.

VING!

The void vibrated as the Heavenly Emperor Yuan managed to slip out through a crack in the void. He glared at the Ancient One warily.

Even though the cultivation state of the Ancient One was far from its peak, his physical body state was still way too strong! So strong that it could disregard practically any attack!

"DON’T RUN! I WANT TO POKE YOU…!"

The Ancient One screamed as his tongue flickered in the air. He then leaped out towards the Heavenly Emperor Yuan once more.

...

The Supreme Being and the others were completely confounded by now. They could not bear to believe everything that was happening before their very eyes. This was way too piercing for their minds!

What happened to the Ancient One?!

That tongue of his, which was spraying saliva left and right, seemed to be filled with limitless seduction. To think that it would lick at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan despicably!

And what was worse was the fact that towering pillar at his crotch was totally erected. It was as though it was ready to wreak havoc on the bottom of Heavenly Emperor Yuan, poking the entire world out of his body.

...

Lin Fan was watching this spectacular and entertaining show with extreme interest. The Ancient One was the Ancient One indeed! To think that every strike of his would be like a tiger pouncing out with complete accuracy.

If not for the fact that the Heavenly Emperor Yuan was so good at running, he would have long been ‘pokey pokey-ed’ by the Ancient One.

"ASK HIM TO STOP! MAKE HIM STOP…!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan could take it no longer. The Ancient One was like a frenzied demon chasing him relentlessly from the back.

In fact, the most terrifying thing for the Heavenly Emperor Yuan right now was the object at the groin of the Ancient One. Like a wild animal, it had enlarged massively, and was striking out at him!

There were already a few close shaves where he was nearly poked by that gigantic object!

"ANCIENT ONE, DON’T YOU GO OVERBOARD!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan was howling madly right now.

"I WANT TO POKE YOU!"

"HOW CAN YOU DO THAT?!"

"I WANT TO POKE YOU! POKEY POKEY POKEY POKEY!"

...

"HURRY UP AND MAKE HIM STOP! I DON’T WANT TO FIGHT ANYMORE!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan was sweating bucket loads right now. Even though he had fused with the Heaven’s Will, the Ancient One’s attack style seemed to have gone so crazed that it was unfathomable!

"Do you believe that I’m a genius prodigy that even a billion years may not produce now?" Lin Fan asked up into the air at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan.

"Yes, I do! Yes…! Please hurry and make him stop!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan’s eyes shone with fear. Even though the Ancient One’s strength was definitely incomparable to his past self, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan was only barely able to dodge everything, even with the strength of the Heaven’s Will put into use.

"Hehe…!" Lin Fan chuckled. He then shouted over to the Ancient One, "Ancient One, that’s enough! Go and poke the ground yourself!"

The Ancient One, who was hot in the chase behind the Heavenly Emperor Yuan, was stunned for a moment. With a look of disappointment on his face, he went down to the ground alone and started humping up and down.

POKE! POKE! POKE! POKE! POKE! POKE! POKE!

This sound was like a woodpecker, loud and repetitive. The entire world shook under its tremendous force.

"This…!" Looking at the Ancient One, even the Heavenly Emperor Yuan’s eyes were fraught with disbelief.

This was one of the eight utmost beings of the Upper World. To think that it would be committing such a despicable act right now!

Let alone the Heavenly Emperor Yuan, even the supreme beings watching this scene were glad that their consciousness was not a physical entity. Otherwise, they would definitely spit out blood and die right now.

Lin Fan looked at everyone and started chuckling, "Alright, now that everything’s over, we can sit down for a good discussion. After all, this concerns the fate of Xuanhuang World. This isn’t something that can be easily gone through with just a couple of words."

"Heavenly Emperor Yuan, are you still insistent on your ideals?" Lin Fan asked him.

"That’s right." Finally able to calm his heart, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan replied.

"Supreme Being, God of War, Reincarnation Emperor, God of Battle… Are you guys still insistent on your beliefs as well?" Lin Fan asked them.

"That’s right. We’ll definitely not allow people from Xuanhuang World to send themselves to their deaths for nothing."

Lin Fan looked at the four of them, then at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan. He did not have too much of a reaction. After all, the final decision right now was on the Heavenly Emperor Yuan.

With the Xuanhuang World being split into two, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan had only devoured 3/4th of the Heaven’s Will of Xuanhuang World. However, Lin Fan believed that if the Heavenly Emperor Yuan dared to appear before them as such, this meant that he must have the confidence of tearing down the Heavenly Barrier for sure.

Thinking back on the deal he made with Ye Han, it was evident that he wanted to use the Blood World as a stepping stone to directly break through this layer of the barrier.

But, the fact that the Heavenly Emperor Yuan had not done so immediately and was willing to sit down for a proper discussion was evident of his intents to resolve this issue as well.

"If I had to stand on the side of the greater picture, I would agree with the four of them. However, if it were based on my personal selfish ideals, I would agree more with the thoughts of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan."

"If one did not fight, then what difference did one have from a dead fish? No matter how tough the road ahead may be, we must never shirk from the fear of danger, and be a cowardly tortoise. We must always be ready to head forth and duel the fate." This was the first time ever that Lin Fan had made such a fair speech.

Even though on the surface, Heavenly Emperor Yuan looked like the bad guy, Lin Fan knew that all this bad guy wanted was to release everyone from the shackles they were trapped with.

"You are different from them. At the same time, I understand your concerns. That’s the reason why I did not tear down the Heavenly Barrier straightaway and chose to place my faith in you." The Heavenly Emperor Yuan looked at Lin Fan. He then turned his gazes towards the four supreme beings.

"All of you no longer have the same hearts you had in the past. Back then, I was the weakest amongst all of you. However, even if all of you were to regain your full strength right now, you wouldn’t be my match at all. After all, power stems from the heart. Your feeble and cowardly hearts have caused all of you to be weak."

...

"You…!" The four of them glared at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan, speechless. Eventually, they gave a cold snort and refused to continue talking.

"Kid, the fairest thing we could do now is to actually tear down the Heavenly Barrier. That’s the only way to allow the entire Xuanhuang World to break free. Everyone should be able to train up and fight together against the Upper World. We shall break free from that fate of being trampled upon." The Heavenly Emperor Yuan continued.

Lin Fan shook his head, his expression grim. "No. Just like the Supreme Being and the others, I have my own selfish intentions."

"I have precious people that I care about deeply, and do not wish to lose. Even though I may release them of this shackled fate, that is nothing compared to their lives. I would rather see them keep their lives than to have them chase after that fate where the probability of death is nine out of ten."

"Even though that’s selfish, isn’t that the basic trait of all humans?"

"I can choose to suppress and take you down while you’re tearing down the Heavenly Barrier, but I will not do that. That’s because I know of the difficulties that lie ahead. In order to protect all of them, I’ve got to be stronger. I’ve got to get so strong that I can fend against all odds."

The Heavenly Emperor Yuan looked at Lin Fan before he burst out laughing, "HAHA…! Humans are indeed the most complex of all living beings. We were every bit like you back then, wanting to be strong in order to protect more people from suffering. However, we failed, and resorted to running away with our tails between our legs. But finally, I understand right now. One must depend on oneself. Back then, I had chosen to devour the Heaven’s Will, but right now, I’m choosing to place my faith in you. I’ve already waited for tens of thousands of years. I don’t mind waiting for one last hope."

"Thank you for your faith. Yours Truly has never let anyone down till now." Lin Fan beamed confidently. Even though his heart was in turmoil, he had to be resolute and firm.

"HAHA…!" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan reared his head into the skies and laughed out, tears streaming from both his eyes.

It was as though he was finally letting go of every single bit of resentment and emotions he had kept in all these years.

Was this a new hope or a new despair…?



Chapter 444: Ascend (End of Act 2)

"Release the Heaven's Will then." Now that everything was settled, Lin Fan was also obligated to head up to the Upper World.

How long did greater celestial full cultivation beings live for? Probably just a few hundred years.

If one did not break through to a higher cultivation state, then the end result would still be death after those few hundred years. The purpose of cultivation was to defy the Heavens, to steal life itself away from the fates. But to think that at the end of it all, the Heavens were sealed itself. Therefore, no matter how hard they cultivated, they would be met with a threshold.

Wasn't this just lying to oneself then?

In actual fact, Lin Fan's personal thoughts were in line with that of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan.

"Alright, I'll return the Heaven's Will to her then." The Heavenly Emperor Yuan had chosen to place his faith in Lin Fan. In this young man, he could sense a resolute and firm belief. He had an unwavering heart that was determined to duel against the fates itself.

"No, don't give it to her. If you give it to her, this physical self of hers that has manifested will no longer exist." Lin Fan remarked. Using his hand to tear through the void, he summoned over the Heaven's Will of Cangling Continent.

"This…!" Upon looking at this elderly figure before him, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan was stunned.

"He is the remaining 1/4th of the Heaven's Will." Lin Fan explained.

With that, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan frowned, "If I were to return to him the rest of the Heaven's Will, based on the ideals of the Heaven's Will, he would forcefully tear through the Heavenly Barrier as well."

"Relax. He has already been tamed by me. He wouldn't do something like that." Lin Fan assured him.

At this moment, Lin Fan was even more certain about the character of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan as well as his words.

Based on the personality of the Heaven's Will, who had complete disregard for human life, he would have definitely torn through the Heavenly Barrier set up by the Supreme Being. Knowing that the Heavenly Emperor Yuan was worried about this, Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief.

The longer one lived, the more lies one would tell.

But evidently, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan didn't seem to be someone as such. With that, Lin Fan had a newfound respect for this man.

Also, Lin Fan's mind could not help but wander over to the Seven Saints. Just where in the world had that fella gone to? Ever since he had found a new host, it was as though he had disappeared entirely from the rest of this world.

But it didn't matter. That old dog shouldn't be able to trample upon anything great.

Upon hearing the words of Lin Fan, everyone's face was dazed.

To think that he could even tame the Heaven's Will! What COULDN'T he tame?!

"Alright…" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan nodded his head. In that instant, a bright glow appeared within his palms. "This is the remainder of the Heaven's Will."

Lin Fan looked at that ball of light and nodded his head, "Heaven's Will, slowly absorb it in. Also, you're not allowed to destroy the Heavenly Barrier of this world."

"Understood." The elderly figure of the Heaven's Will nodded his head. Holding the ball of light in his palms, he began to take it in.

...

"How much time do I have?" Lin Fan asked.

"One day." The Heavenly Emperor Yuan replied.

"What?! So little time?!" Lin Fan was stunned on hearing the reply. To think that Yours Truly would have to depart after a single day! Wasn't that way too fast?!

"After a day, all of their consciousnesses are going to disintegrate. In order to breach a small gap through the Heavenly Barrier, we would need to make use of their consciousnesses." The Heavenly Emperor Yuan explained.

The four supreme beings looked at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan with a strange expression. Eventually, they sighed. "Forget it, let's forget about everything before. Heavenly Emperor, it's been 10,000 years since we've last been together. Let us cherish this last day that we have and enjoy a good chat, shall we?"

The four supreme beings have come to a state of acceptance. They could understand where the Heavenly Emperor was coming from as well. They wanted to use these final moments to reminisce about everything they once had together.

"Alright." Looking at the four of them, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan nodded his head.

...

Lin Fan sighed within his heart. He only had one day. How was that enough…?

Glory Sect…

Lin Fan arrived at Nameless Peak. Looking at everyone gathered around him, he could not help but feel a deep sense of melancholy within his heart.

"I knew it! Master is the best! Any sort of problems turn into no problems in the hands of our Master!" Zhang Ergou exclaimed while looking at Lin Fan with a look of respect.

"That goes without saying! Everyone has got to know whose Master he is. Right, Master…?" Cai Zhiqiao, that cute little brat, was hugging and sticking with Lin Fan tightly while boasting proudly.

Lin Fan smiled as he fondled Cai Zhiqiao's little head. He then burst out into laughter brightly, "Alright, since I'm in a pretty good mood and all our Saint Devil Sect disciples are gathered, Yours Truly have got some good news to announce as the Grandmaster of Saint Devil Sect!"

"What good news?" Xuan Yunxian looked at Lin Fan with an expression of happiness on her face.

"It's got something to do with you…" Lin Fan said mysteriously.

"Huh? With me?" Xuan Yunxian was startled for a moment before she grinned, curious about what was to come.

Mie Qiongqi stood silently on the sidelines. Looking at his Master, his heart was filled with grief. He wondered when the next time would be when he could even see his Master once more.

But of course, he was tactful enough to let it show on his expression.

Lin Fan held on to the tender hands of Xuan Yunxian and continued, "It's been tough on you. After all, I've never ever given you a name or a status. Let us get married today, right here on Nameless Peak. All my disciples shall be my witnesses."

"Huh…?" Xuan Yunxian looked at Lin Fan with a face of disbelief. She had not thought that it would be something like this! She then whispered, "What's wrong with you today? Why do you sound so different?"

"It's an affair that has to be done sooner or later. Besides, if there's someone who comes after you, wouldn't that make you the big wife then?" Lin Fan chuckled teasingly.

Upon hearing these words, Xuan Yunxian's face flushed like a tomato, "Tsk! There are kids around!"

Lin Fan held onto Xuan Yunxian's hands tightly and gently patted the back of her hand, "I've longed for a soulmate, and time shall never separate us. At times, fate is truly a strange thing indeed. Believe in me. I'll definitely protect all of you."

"Yes…" Xuan Yunxian had never once heard such words. With that, her gentle heart fluttered as she laid her head on Lin Fan's shoulder in complete bliss.

"OH…! MASTER'S GETTING MARRIED!!!" That little brat Cai Zhiqiao began hopping around excitedly.

His second disciple, You Jiuling, beamed happily, while hopping around with Cai Zhiqiao as well.

...

It was a simple affair without any guests nor grand stages. Everything was just plain and simple. But to Xuan Yunxian, all she ever wanted was that simple sentence to account for her... A promise.

Nightfall…

That in-depth interaction between her and Lin Fan before his final departure had left her tired, and thus, she headed off into bed early.

Lin Fan donned his robes. Looking at the sky and stars above, he disappeared from that place in the blink of an eye.

The next moment, Lin Fan had arrived at Jiuxiao Sect. He found Xinfeng, whose hair were getting whiter, and was busy handling the affairs of the Jiuxiao Sect.

Looking at the arrival of Lin Fan, Xinfeng was naturally overwhelmed with joy. Ever since he had known of Lin Fan's revival, he had been filled with emotions.

That night, those two men conversed deeply. Xinfeng was so excited about seeing his brother once more that he did not notice anything strange about his Brother Lin.

As dawn broke out, Lin Fan left the Jiuxiao Sect.

He then found his 14 Sand Bandits. These men had followed his absurdities of the Dao of robbery, and had insistently carried on his will. Looking at them, he could not help but sigh with a peaceful exasperation. He left a strain of his power, protecting and watching over these 14 fools.

Lastly, Lin Fan headed back to the Cangling Continent and conversed with those students of his. He imparted some skills over to them, and had them work hard on their own.

This was not the way Lin Fan had planned his script to turn out.

Towards this place, Lin Fan was filled with all sorts of reluctance. But what could he do about that? In order to take control of the fate from here on forth, he had to continue working hard by all means.

This was a responsibility as well as a personal pursuit.

...

Standing on a distant mountain peak, Lin Fan looked over the boundless mountains and seas of this world. For a moment, he had a strong feeling of unwillingness to leave this place surge into his heart. But he suppressed it within to the bottom of his heart.

"Are you ready?" The Heavenly Emperor Yuan asked Lin Fan.

"Yes, I'm done. You can begin now." Lin Fan took in a deep breath and nodded. He then looked over to a group of people, "Grandmaster, please take care of Saint Devil Sect from now on."

Grandmaster Yan looked at Lin Fan before heaving a long, deep sigh, nodding his head eventually.

BOOM!

The four consciousnesses of the supreme beings exerted their final burst of strength. This burst of energy surged through the entire Heavens and Earth.

Suddenly, Lin Fan's face turned pale. He noticed that even the Heavenly Emperor Yuan's lifeforce was gradually turning weaker!

"Heavenly Emperor Yuan, you…!" Lin Fan exclaimed in disbelief.

"Kid, you are the hope… And I have chosen to believe in this hope. Do not let me down." In that instant, the lifeforce of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan erupted out as well. That massive amount of energy pierced through the Heavens, as though it was paving a new path.

The sacrifice of his life was the so-called hope of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan. Towards this decision, he did have some regrets before. But, he managed to let them go.

After all, there was only a single hope. If he missed this opportunity, it might never come again.

Lin Fan looked at the Heavenly Emperor Yuan and the four supreme beings before nodding his head.

Just then, a small thin passageway appeared in the void. Even though it was minuscule, this passageway was practically the symbol of hope right now.

BOOM!

In that instant, Lin Fan's body entered that passageway and disappeared entirely…

The Heavenly Emperor Yuan's body turned into dust and scattered into the universe.

As for the consciousnesses of the four supreme beings, they had reached the threshold of their limits, and had dissipated completely as well.

Nameless Peak…

A lone figure stood with a forlorn look on her face, glancing into the distant skies.

"I've longed for a soulmate, and time shall never separate us. I'll await your return, definitely…"



The Strongest Gene - Chapter 445: A Bunch Of Bewildered Geniuse

"Just where is this place? Goodness, that passageway was seriously way too messed up! I was spinning so much, I’m totally nauseous right now." Lin Fan’s stomach was churning like the seas right now, as though he could vomit out the entire Han River from his mouth at any instant.

‘Sniff…sniff…!’

"This is the smell of air. And by the smell of it, it’s pretty fresh. This must be the so-called Upper World then. Eh…? There’s a sound beside my ear. Is there someone else here beside me?" Within that pitch-black passageway, Lin Fan’s vision was temporarily blinded. Therefore, he was struggling to regain vision facing this tremendous brightness upon leaving the passageway.

A few figures were moving about before Lin Fan. Even though it was blurry, they looked similar to humans. However, the aura seemed a little off.

Gradually with a bit of time, Lin Fan’s vision recovered.

"And you are?" Upon catching sight of the figures before him, Lin Fan was astonished. They were extremely similar to human beings, yet they were somewhat different.

A human with a single horn on his head.

A human with 3 eyes.

A human with wings behind his back.

While all of them looked exactly the same as humans, there was a demonic aura within their auras…

Just what sort of people were these?

Lin Fan’s heart was momentarily stunned, as he was bewildered. He surveyed his surroundings. He was in a dense patch of forest right now. Before him were some wild plains with valleys on both sides, leaving only a single path in between.

Within the skies, there were 3 layers of raging flames. However, Lin Fan could not even feel a slight bit of heat from them.

"Fellow brother there, did you just ascend in?" Just then, the single-horned man, who was completely nude, walked beside Lin Fan. Using his firm hands, he patted Lin Fan’s shoulders and asked.

"That’s right. And you are?" Lin Fan was trying his best to soothe his heart. This was not the moment for him to lose face and act like a country bumpkin. He needed to remain calm.

As for this single horned nude man, his aura was dense. The aura within his body was rumbling as well; he was definitely a strong person. Even though his system of cultivation might be different, if Lin Fan were to gauge him using the cultivation system of Xuanhuang World, this person should probably be a greater celestial full cultivation being.

"I am Jiao Niu from the Horn World. Greater celestial full cultivation state." Jiao Niu clasped his fist together and greeted with an upright stance.

"I am Lin Fan from Xuanhuang World." Lin Fan was wary of his surroundings. In this unknown Upper World, he had not let down his guard for even a single second.

Lin Fan continued the conversation in bits and pieces. At the same time, he was trying to pull out some information from Jiao Niu’s words to find out more about this world.

But to Lin Fan’s disappointment, Jiao Niu was just like him. He had zero knowledge of this world.

But there was something weird that he garnered from their conversation. The Upper World that Jiao Niu had heard about was totally different from the one that Lin Fan was told of.

Heaven on Earth? The holy grounds of cultivation?

This was the legend that was passed down to Jiao Niu from his world. This was the holy ground that everyone from his world was striving to arrive in.

But the Upper World that the Heavenly Emperor Yuan and the four supreme beings had described was a treacherous place where it was survival of the fittest!

What in the world was going on?

Lin Fan looked around and gauged the number of people around him. There was roughly hundred or so of them. Each and every one of them was a greater celestial full cultivation being. At the same time, they weren’t really old. The youngest amongst them should only be 17 or 18 years old while the oldest was only in their 30’s.

From what Lin Fan could tell, all of these people were the various geniuses of their very own worlds.

Just then, there was a disturbance within the group of people. Someone was suggesting that they should leave this place.

However, there was only a single path ahead of them, the path in between the valleys.

Lin Fan wanted to stay here for a little while more and wait out things while he figured out just what the situation was like in this world. However, there was a mysterious force from the unknowns that was forcefully pushing him to leave this place.

It was as if every single second they remained in this place would cause them to feel immense suffering and pains gradually.

"Why does it feel like it’s getting harder to breathe? No, I’ve got to get out of here!" The young man with a pair of wings said.

"I’m getting the same feeling!" Another girl, who had a tail behind her, commented. She was extremely gorgeous and alluring. However, the colour was gradually draining from her face.

In that instant, everyone began to get out of the place.

The moment Lin Fan stepped out of that patch of forest, that feeling disappeared immediately.

Stepping his foot on the firm mud ground before him, a sense of reality gushed up into Lin Fan’s heart. It was as though he had finally completed his transmigration into this world.

But, Lin Fan did not have the luxury to overthink things nor comprehend just what was going on in this world. All he could do was to follow the crowd.

"The Upper World is beautiful indeed! The aura of this world feels much denser than the one back in mine!" A young man remarked excitedly.

"HAHA! This world was definitely prepared for me! Even that bottleneck from my world seems to have been loosened at this moment!" Feeling a released form of energy surge through his body, yet another young youth burst out in happiness.

All of these people here were greater celestial full cultivation beings. Hence, they were extremely sensitive to the energy of their surroundings. As for Lin Fan, he was already an utmost celestial full cultivation being right now. Therefore, he wasn’t as sensitive to the surroundings as them. However, he could definitely feel the energy in the air around him being denser than that of the Xuanhuang World.

Just as everyone was walking on the path, a sudden ominous feeling burst out in Lin Fan’s mind.

"HAHA…! Not bad! Seems like there’s quite a number of people who have ascended up this time around!" Just then, a maniacal laughter boomed out from the void.

By the time everyone could react to this, a gigantic cage that covered the entire sky had descended upon them, trapping everyone within it.

"What’s going on?"

"Who’s there?!"

All of these geniuses, who had just ascended into the Upper World from all their multiverses and different worlds, were busy celebrating and feeling excited. But, this sudden change of things had them in a panicked state.

However, they had some talent to be able to reach their cultivation states, as their panicked hearts were only disordered for a split second before they managed to calm back down.

Lin Fan’s heart was thumping furiously though. Could it truly be the way Heavenly Emperor Yuan and the other supreme beings had mentioned? Was this so-called Upper World truly a Hell where everyone was doomed to suffer tragic trials and fates?

"HAHA…!" Just then, a bunch of figures appeared on the top of the valleys.

Lin Fan focused his gaze over and frowned. These guys were ugly beyond measures. At the same time, they had a berserk aura that seemed to be filling the world around them.

"May I know who you guys are? We have just ascended into this place. If there’s any way we’ve offended you guys, please pardon us." Jiao Niu was the first to step forth, clasping his fists together to apologize.

BAM!

Those bunch of people atop the valleys leaped down with tremendous force. Those violent eyes of theirs surveyed the masses in the cage as they smirked coldly.

Lin Fan observed this bunch of ugly people. Their attires were the same; there must be someone leading them.

And just then, a figure walked from behind this group of hideous looking people. That figure was towering and pitch-black, just like the Ancient One. However, his body was nowhere as strong as the Ancient One.

"All you bunch of fugly sh*ts! You had better let go of me! Don’t you know who I am?!" Just then, a man beside Lin Fan hollered out furiously.

"That’s right! I am the genius of the Fire World, the Great Flame Emperor! All of you fugly sh*ts had better let go of us, or I shall have you guys suffer the terrible torment of being scorched!" This red-haired man continued yelling.

Within the Fire World, he was the renowned Great Flame Emperor, who enjoyed the adoration of everyone else. To think that he would be captured by these fugly sh*ts after entering this Upper World! How could he tolerate that?

With that, the masses began to clamor out loudly as well, evidently dissatisfied with this treatment.

Standing at a corner, Lin Fan’s heart was filled with shock instead.

The reason for that was because he could see through the cultivation states of these hideous underlings. To think that each and every one of them was at the utmost celestial cultivation state!

As for that leader right there, his cultivation state seemed to be even higher than utmost celestial!

This bunch of fools around him were just courting death with their actions!

Lin Fan could not help but sigh exasperatedly in his heart. What sort of a damned world was this?

Why the hell did something like this happen the moment he came out?

Heavenly Emperor Yuan! Why hadn’t you explained things clearly before?!

Lin Fan was thoroughly exasperated…



The Strongest Gene - Chapter 446: Ancient Race

"Sir! We’ve captured a total of 98 ascended beings this time round!"

"Hmm… not bad... not bad. Round it down then. I’ll let you guys have the extra eight to share amongst yourselves." A cruel glint shone from the eyes of the leader.

The way he looked at Lin Fan and everyone else in the cage was as though he was looking at food.

"Hmph, what Great Flame Emperor and whatnot? How dare you act so brazen in front of me? I’ll eat you up first then!" The leader snorted coldly. As his pitch-black hand stretched out gradually, the entire void rippled.

"H-how come I’m unable to move? Let me go! LET ME GO!" The Great Flame Emperor, who was still hollering earlier on, was struggling right now. That so-called strongest flames of his were burning on the body of that leader. However, there was no impact on him at all.

As the arm of the leader reached out, the Great Flame Emperor, who was trapped within the cage, was lifted by his neck like a chicken.

"I AM THE GREAT FLAME EMPEROR! YOU FUGLY SH*T! HURRY UP AND LET GO OF ME!" The eyes of the Great Flame Emperor were filled with fear right now.

To think that those powers he was so proud of were absolutely useless in this situation!

"HAHA…! Genius of the Fire World? Not bad… not bad... You must definitely taste delicious!" The leader of the pack looked at the Great Flame Emperor and smirked coldly.

Opening his mouth widely, he chomped down on the body of the Great Flame Emperor.

‘ARGH…!!!’ A tragic cry rang out from the Great Flame Emperor. With his feet dangling above the ground, he repeatedly struggled to get out of the grasp that arm. But gradually, his aura grew feebler by the second as that burning body of his began to wither non-stop. Eventually, he turned into a dried-up corpse and was tossed aside by the leader.

"That’s a really pure taste! Succulent and smooth aftertaste!" The leader stuck out his tongue lustfully and smacked his lips. It was as though he had just enjoyed a scrumptious feast.

With that, every single genius who had ascended was left absolutely dumbfounded.

They had not expected such a situation to unfold!

Each and every one of them had witnessed the strength of that Great Flame Emperor earlier on! Even they themselves might not have been a match for him! But to think that he was gripped in the palms of this hideous creature with such ease and then devoured in a single bite!

That was the epitome of terror…!

Lin Fan felt his heart jerk for a moment as well. This was even more horrifying than what the Heavenly Emperor Yuan had described!

There was absolutely no chance of survival at all!

Even if one were to play a game, there ought to be a safe point or safe zone for preparation! However, ever since they entered this Upper World, there was no such place at all! They were doomed the moment they entered this place!

‘ARGH…!’

Just then, all sorts of tragic cries rang out from all directions.

Yet another seven people had been dragged out by those hideous and ugly creatures.

The seven of them tried running away, yet, there was no escape for them.

Each and every one of these people here were geniuses and overlords of their respective worlds. To think that they would be toyed around like helpless lab rats right now!

Looking at the everything, Lin Fan could only shake his head helplessly.

At this moment, Lin Fan truly wanted to help them out. But he couldn’t do anything.

The number of energy grid line chains that Lin Fan had gathered by now was already 500. He actually had zero regards for these feeble utmost celestial ants. In fact, even that leader, who had broken through beyond the utmost celestial state, wasn’t someone that could faze Lin Fan at all.

But herein lied the problem. If even all of these small little ants were utmost celestial, what would happen to him if he struck out and there was an even greater being that was camping nearby? Wouldn’t he be doomed?

"This is no Heaven on Earth! This is just Hell…! Tricked! I was tricked!" Out of those seven people who were dragged out, a young youth with wings reared his head into the skies and vented out his frustration. But those were his final words.

He had come to his place bearing expectations and hopes, only to find out that everything was different from what he had expected.

"ALL YOU B*STARD SH*TS! LET US OUT! EVEN IF WE MUST DIE, WE’LL FIGHT YOU TO OUR DEATHS!" The other 90 overlord level people who were trapped within the cages howled out. They could no longer bear to watch this scene any longer.

They used all sorts of powerful skills and tactics to strike at the cage that was cooping them in. However, it was useless. There wasn’t even a single scratch on the cage.

"Ants, don’t waste your strength anymore. The rules here are different from your worlds. Now that you’re here, you can barely even exert ten percent of your strength. You must be daydreaming if you think that you can break out of this cage." The leader laughed coldly as his eyes glinted in mockery, as though he was toying with them.

"Don’t come over…!" Amongst the seven that were selected, there was a single female who had a tail behind her. The moment she caught sight of one of those ugly creatures approaching her, she let out a high pitched scream.

She was a female empress back in her world, mighty and tall over the rest of the world. However, in front of this hideous creature, she had lost every single bit of image and was terrified.

"HAHA! What a beautiful body you’ve got. It’s been a long time since I’ve had such a tender body!" That hideous creature’s eyes shone with lust as he glared at that woman. It was as though he was having some really dirty thoughts in his head.

Lin Fan gripped his fist tightly as a flame of rage was burning within him.

Upon hearing the words of the leader, Lin Fan suddenly realized that even his own powers were restrained by this world.

Indeed, it was as he had mentioned. He couldn’t even use up ten percent of his original strength!

This…!

"BRAZEN…!"

Suddenly, a massive amount of energy burst out from the distant skies above.

Lin Fan squinted his eyes and looked over into the distance. His face turned gleeful. There were people approaching!

Pierced by a single ray of light, that hideous creature who had dirty thoughts about that female died immediately.

"Who’s there?!" Realising that something was off, the leader’s face changed.

"Ancient race, you guys are going overboard! All of you shall die here today!" Within the skies, tens of people appeared suddenly. Glaring at these ugly creatures with a furious look in their eyes, they proceeded to massacre these creatures.

‘Ancient race?’

Lin Fan carved this name into his heart. Could these hideous creatures be that Ancient race?

The Heavenly Emperor Yuan did mention that the Ancient One was one of the eight utmost beings of this Upper World.

Evidently, he must have some relation with this Ancient race as well.

A massacre was what happened. Out of those tens of people, none of them were humans. All of them were from different worlds. Furthermore, Lin Fan could tell that these people possessed immense strength.

His cultivation state was sealed by this place right now, and he couldn’t even exert ten percent of his original strength. But upon looking at these people, Lin Fan understood.

There must be some sort of way to bypass this. Otherwise, there was no way these people could be this strong.

In the blink of an eye, the leader of those from the Ancient race was killed by these people. At the same time, the cage that had shackled Lin Fan and everyone else within was broken apart by these people.

"This is a dangerous place. We shouldn’t linger around. Follow us." Those tens of people swept their robes and brought everyone to escape with them.

By the time Lin Fan and everyone else opened their eyes, the scenery had changed entirely.

There was no sky above them, nor was there the green Earth before them. It seemed as though they were in some sort of cave or something.

This cave was extremely huge, and was lit up by flames on the sides of the walls.

All of those geniuses that had ascended from the different worlds heaved out a sigh of relief. At the same time, they were filled with bewilderment. Just what in the world was going on?

Those hideous creatures… What were they?

Checking out his surroundings, Lin Fan also heaved out a sigh of relief. Seemed like they were safe for now. Although, he wondered how long this serenity and safety net would last.

Lin Fan’s priority, after all of this was settled, was to raise his power level immediately. Anything else meant nothing at all.



Chapter 447: The Strongest System, Initiate!

All of the rescued people were discussing fervently about this foreign world. They were totally lost and confused. However, right now, a new hope laid before their very eyes.

That hope was these people who had saved them.

More than 90 people, each of them geniuses of their very own worlds... Even though they were all pretty confused, they heaved a sigh of relief when they witnessed the strength produced by these dozens of saviors. This was proof that they could get stronger here.

"Silence."

At that moment, a man with a single horn walked out of the darkness. His commanding voice filled the entire cave. With a repressing aura pressing down on everyone through that voice alone, everyone’s faces changed as they struggled to resist that aura.

Lin Fan frowned. This man’s strength was definitely much stronger than his own. Even at his peak power, he might not be a match for this person here.

But, this was nothing shocking for Lin Fan as well. This so-called Upper World should mean that this was a world above their own. Even though Lin Fan was an invincible force back in Xuanhuang World, he was already prepared for the fact that he might only be the weakest in this world.

Right now, his mind was only filled with questions and doubts, and nothing else.

After all, to Lin Fan, becoming strong was something extremely simple. All he required was effort.

He had no doubt that before long, he would definitely be stronger than anyone else here.

"Do not speak or ask anything. Everything shall be explained to you guys in due time. Now, when I start calling out the worlds, anyone who has ascended from those worlds shall come forth and receive a Teleportation Rock from me."

"Horn World."

Jiao Niu patted Lin Fan on the shoulders before heading up front.

Looking at Jiao Niu, that lone horned man nodded his head. He then handed over a sparkling jade crystal into the hands of Jiao Niu.

"This is a Teleportation Rock. Drip your blood on it, and it will send you over to the area where people of the Horn World are residing in. Someone there will update you on the situation here.’

"Fox World!"

The girl who was nearly ravished earlier by that soldier of the Ancient Race stood out.

Even though her face was still slightly pale, she had mostly recovered from the shock from earlier.

"Thank you, Senior."

...

After that, with the help of the Teleportation Rocks, all of the people left the cave, all except Lin Fan, who was the only one standing there looking bewildered.

What the hell?

"What about me?" Lin Fan asked hurriedly.

The lone horned man looked at Lin Fan as his brows creased. It was as though he was trying to recall something but he couldn’t no matter how hard he tried, "Which world are you from again?"

"Xuanhuang World, Human race." Lin Fan replied hurriedly.

"Xuanhuang World, Human race?!" The man was stunned, as though he was trying to remember something. But he shook his head, "There isn’t anything for Xuanhuang World…"

"How could there be no Xuanhuang World! You must have forgotten, haven’t you? There are tons of humans from Xuanhuang World over here!" Lin Fan was getting worked up right now. Were they going to dump Yours Truly here alone?!

He was totally foreign to this place. If he were to head out right now and bump into those from the Ancient race again, what was he supposed to do?!

And even if there truly wasn’t a place, they ought to give him some advice, shouldn’t they? At the same time, letting him know how he should settle the situation he was in right now should be their duty or something!

Goodness Christ! This sh*t about getting his cultivation state suppressed was no joke at all man! If he could find a way to break out from these shackles of the world, he might still have a shot at survival!

"The human race has long fallen. Because of that, naturally, there is no longer a sanctuary for you humankind." Just then, another figure appeared before Lin Fan.

"I…!" Lin Fan was entirely exasperated. He wanted to cuss out at them. But on second thought, he let go of that idea.

This must be the doing of those four supreme beings, sealing the ascension of humans from the Xuanhuang World. In the past 10,000+ years, there hadn’t been a single humankind who had ascended to this Upper World. Those humans who were living here previously must have known some sort of secret or something, and thus, they have stopped trying to receive anyone ascending from Xuanhuang World.

For a race as strong as the humans, there must definitely be no issue for them to reproduce and sustain their race here.

And in fact, if someone like him were to make his way over there right now, he might be a black sheep for them.

"Seems like I can’t help you with that. However, you’re the only person I’ve seen who has ascended over from the Xuanhuang World in all these years. I’m sure everything you want to know is within here. Your life and death from now forth depends on you yourself." With that, that man tossed a booklet over to Lin Fan. With a bright flash, he left the place with a Teleportation Rock as well.

"Oi…OI! I’M NOT DONE TALKING!" Lin Fan tried calling after the person. But it was too late. All of these damned people had left.

Lin Fan was the only person left standing blankly in that entire empty cave.

"Holy f*ck…! All you sh*tstains have no single bit of love or empathy within you!" Lin Fan sighed before plopping down on his bum. Looking at this sealed cave, he could only sigh deeply.

Where was the path from here on forth…?

‘No, there’s definitely no way I can just wait for death right here. I’ve got to pick myself up and take out that mighty disposition I had in the Xuanhuang World! So what if this place is fraught with dangers? Yours Truly shall use these iron fists of his to break a brand new world in this place. All of those people shall regret not befriending Yours Truly earlier!’ Lin Fan was cheering himself up inside his heart while laying down this grand promise at the same time.

"But, everything’s got to have a start. Let’s see what’s inside this booklet. Hopefully, it answers everything that I need to know." Lin Fan sighed once more. While he still had no idea about anything in the outside world, he should just obediently read through and understand the circumstances here.

This booklet looked a little aged, and even tattered at the sides. Each and every single one of those words was handwritten.

In that silent cave, the only sound was of Lin Fan flipping the pages.

Time passed by the second and the minutes. Lin Fan did not even know how many days had passed. By the time he had finished reading the booklet, he had an urge to commit suicide.

He was really f*cked this time around.

The name of this Upper World was called Ancient Saint World.

As for those creatures from the Ancient race, they were the indigenous people of this world. Vile, cruel and ruthless, they viewed everything other than their own race as food.

In fact, the dangers recorded within the booklet were not the Ancient race alone. There was a multitude of other ferocious, ancient beasts within this world.

These beasts were described to be extremely strong, so ferocious that they couldn’t possibly be dealt with by ordinary folks.

With that, Lin Fan started to get a slight understanding. At the same time, the booklet had described some random things to be taken note of. However, nothing was complete, and so, Lin Fan still had to depend on himself to discover everything else.

But the most pressing issue on Lin Fan’s mind right now was how he should assimilate into this world so that he wouldn’t be repressed any longer.

From the booklet, Lin Fan understood one thing. Among the many thousands of worlds out there, each of them had a different system of cultivation. The Heaven’s Will that existed in these worlds were different as well.

While the form of power that was harnessed in the Xuanhuang World was energy grid line chains, it wasn’t the same for the other worlds out there.

In this Ancient Saint World, for example, the power that was harnessed through cultivation was not energy grid line chains, but some sort of weird thing called Saint Spirit Qi.

"Sigh, forget it. Let’s take things one step at a time. Time to just convert these energy grid line chains first." Lin Fan shook his head as he couldn’t do anything else but accept the reality before him.

‘Ding…Too damned bloody troublesome! Initiating the Strongest module. Begin assimilation!’

‘Ding…Assimilation success!’

‘Ding…Energy grid line chains conversion success!’

‘Ding…Experience points numerical value exceeded. Rebooting calibration.’

‘Ding…Calibration successful! Strongest module assimilated.’

‘Ding…Your System is still the goddamned Strongest System. All you need to do is to slay sh*t to get experience points and level up. It is no longer a dream to head up the path to greatness and attain a lifetime of absolute dominance.’

...

Lin Fan was leaping with joy in his heart right now. To think that the system would suddenly just decide to solve every single last problem for him right now!

Seemed like the system was not failing earlier on. It was just in a state of assimilation. And by the looks of it, it had successfully done so!

Seemed like it was time to check out what was up with the system right now.

Just what kind of playing field did this strongest module have to offer?

Seemed like even the system itself could not stand all this cumbersome and bothersome nonsense and decided to go berserk on its own. Ha!

Translator's Thoughts
Lam Lam

HAHAHAHA. ‘TOO DAMNED BLOODY TROUBLESOME’. ‘YOUR SYSTEM’. IS THIS NOVEL EVEN FOR REAL NOW HAHAHAHA Im going to die laughing from this hilarity. Also, the author has decided to not be long winded. ‘Time to slay slay slay! Slay all the way till eternity!’ I’ll trust him on that haha.

And last but not least, I just have to add this in.

Ladies and gentlemen, you’re finally officially welcomed to the initiation of The Strongest System. Lets go!



Chapter 448: Cleaving Down Everything

‘Name: Lin Fan.’

‘Cultivation State: Utmost Celestial Full Cultivation State.’

‘Experience Points: (0/10,000).’

‘Physical Body State: Imperishable Full Cultivation State. (Fused with Energy Grid Line Chains).’

‘Physical Body Experience Points: (7,000/10,000).’

‘Potential: Unlimited.’

‘Bloodline: Upper Firmament Bloodline (Unactivated).’

...

Looking at the panel of his personal information on the system, Lin Fan’s lips curled into a bitter smile.

Even though his physical body state had improved from Imperishable Lower Level to Imperishable Full Cultivation state, it was only a farce. While it might look stronger on the surface, he had actually gone down in terms of toughness.

‘Bloody hell! System! Were you suppressed by the rules of this world that made you so submissive as well? What sort of ‘strongest module’ is this? This is a complete acknowledgment of defeat!’ Lin Fan was almost on the brink of tears right now. To think that he had believed in the words of this system! He was so thoroughly f*cked up to his granny’s house right now!

‘Ding…Congratulations on fusing 1 energy grid line chain of Xuanhuang World into your physical body.’

‘Ding…Physical body experience points +100.’

‘Holy sh*t…!’

Lin Fan’s face changed as the energy grid line chain he had gathered fused within his body. Didn’t this mean that he could level up automatically without being walloped?!

Lin Fan immediately pulled back the screen of his profile and took a closer look. The speed in which he gathered energy grid line chains was still as fast as ever!

He was only 3000 experience points away from leveling his physical body state once more. Given this current rate, that means that he would only require around 30 energy grid line chains!

He would be able to level by a month’s time!

‘Not bad, not bad…!’ Upon hearing that notification, Lin Fan’s lips grinned once more.

This was practically double insurance! To think that he could level up even without being whacked! This meant that given enough time, even his physical body state would grow to be unlimitedly strong! In fact, invincibility might not be out of the question as well!

"HAHA…!" With that, Lin Fan burst out laughing.

However, when he looked at how the billions of experience points required initially had now shrunk down to mere tens of thousands, he was a little not used to it. But, this was for the best as well. After all, this made things simpler to look at. The ‘lower’ amount of experience points required should serve as motivation as well.

At this moment, it was as though Lin Fan had regained his vitality. Those rules of the Ancient Saint World which were restricting him previously seemed to have disappeared as well.

Once again, he could feel the massive surge of his own powers returning to him.

Looking at his surroundings, Lin Fan beamed brightly once more, ‘Seems like it’s time to take a tour outside and chop down everything in this world!’

Upon knowing that he would have to ascend up here, Lin Fan had left Chicky behind in Xuanhuang World, because he did not know how things would be like up here.

If he were to meet with a strong opponent and fall here, that would be an absolute tragedy.

From the booklet, Lin Fan also found out about the cultivation states of this world and their increasing levels.

Utmost Celestial.

Earth Celestial.

Azure Celestial.

Desolate Celestial.

Divine Celestial.

But even then, Lin Fan knew that Divine Celestial wasn’t the end point of it all. That was because the Supreme Being and the others were Divine Celestials as well, yet they were whooped like dogs by the Ancient One.

Therefore, Lin Fan had to set his expectations straight, and keep a low profile.

Lin Fan had no idea exactly how long he had spent within the cave. But right now, he was prepared to head out there and give it a good massacre. He had to grow stronger!

The moment Lin Fan stepped out of the cave and faced the bright, clear skies was a moment of strong battle intent.

‘GRAWL…!’

As Lin Fan stepped out of the cave and re-entered the forest, the sounds of the surrounding beasts increased in frequency.

And just as he was warily surveying his surroundings, a massive object leaped down from the skies. This dark figure was so huge that it covered everything above Lin Fan’s head.

Lin Fan’s face changed slightly as he shifted his body quickly, side stepping to avoid being crushed by the massive creature.

Looking at the being before him, Lin Fan could not help but take in a breath of cold air.

What a mighty giant ape!

‘GRAWH…!!!’

That single-eyed giant ape howled into the skies. Using both arms, he repeatedly thumped on his chest, giving off dull thudding sounds.

That sole red colored swollen eye was filled with malice, as he glared straight at Lin Fan and roared.

‘Ancient Beast: Cyclops Giant Ape. Utmost celestial full cultivation.’

Lin Fan’s eyes squinted. All it took was a single look for all of this data to appear! This caused Lin Fan to be a little surprised.

Could this be the improved framework as a result of the system going berserk? Without even using his intent, he could observe and gauge everything automatically!

With that, Lin Fan took out the legendary weapon, Eternal Axe.

"Big chimp! Come at me!" Lin Fan taunted the giant ape and beckoned with his palm.

‘GRAWH…!’ The cyclops giant ape howled madly as he punched his chest repeatedly with the gigantic arms of his. It was as though he was infuriated by this puny little ant jeering towards him.

Just then, the cyclops giant ape lunged at Lin Fan with a fist of tremendous force. It was as though he was bent on killing Lin Fan.

"Heh, seems like you shall be the first beast Yours Truly kills after coming to this world." Wielding the Eternal Axe, Lin Fan slammed down at the fist of the cyclops giant ape.

‘Plop…!’

In that instant, the air was filled with a mess of meat and blood. That massive fist that the cyclops giant ape sent out was split into two by Lin Fan.

That mighty body retreated backward instantly. Within those malicious eyes shone a shimmer of fear. He then turned around and tried to run instantly.

"Heh, you think you can run after taunting Yours Truly? What a dream!" Lin Fan looked at the cyclops giant ape, took aim, and tossed out the Eternal Axe.

The Eternal Axe spun in the air as it sliced upwards from below, ripping the cyclops giant ape apart from his anus.

‘URGH…!’

Fresh, steaming blood sprayed into the skies and stained the ground all around it.

‘Ding…congratulations on killing cyclops giant ape.’

‘Ding…experience points +100.’

...

Lin Fan came before the body of the giant ape. Looking at the mess of blood on the ground right now, he grinned, "Little one, you think you can be insolent?"

Just as Lin Fan was about to leave, a notification startled Lin Fan.

‘Ding…Discovered demonic aura of cyclops giant ape. Absorb it within Demon City?’

This was a new phenomenon! Could this be a new effect after the system’s berserk as well?!

‘Absorb.’

Lin Fan did not know what it meant, but he just wanted to see what would come out of it.

In that instant, Lin Fan witnessed a green puff of demonic aura emanating out from the corpse of the cyclops giant ape. It was then absorbed by the system into his Demon City within his storage.

‘Eh…?’

Lin Fan suddenly realized that something was happening to that semi-finished, pseudo-legendary weapon, Demon City!

To think that this demonic aura could repair the Demon City! Could it be that these were just the things to allow the Demon City to evolve into a proper legendary weapon?

At the thought of this, Lin Fan was overwhelmed with joy!

"Cyclops giant ape, don’t blame Yours Truly! Yours Truly is a man who’s starting from scratch right now! I had intended to leave your corpse there entirely. But seems like I can’t do that any longer!" Lin Fan looked at both halves of the body that he had just cleaved. Waving his hand, he then tossed it into the Heaven and Earth Smelt and began smelting.

‘Ding…congratulations on smelting.’

‘Ding…congratulations on obtaining cyclops giant ape’s essence blood. 10 drops.’

‘Not bad! Seems like this place is quite the treasure trove! Apparently, there’s no hurry to leave. I should totally look for more ancient beasts.’ Lin Fan rubbed his chin and decided on his next course of action.



Chapter 449: A Mythical Pill Which Would Anger Both Humans and Gods.

In the guise of the darkness of the night, a pair of shimmering bright eyes darted around the forest.

The nights in the Ancient Saint World were way scarier than those back in Dongling Continent, with the howling of beasts running rampant throughout the night.

Lin Fan did not know where he was or the type of powerful forces that he was being surrounded by.

However, with the way his power level was right now, Lin Fan felt that he still better be careful about things. After all, his cultivation state was practically the lowest in the Ancient Saint World right now. Even if anyone else could tolerate this, this was absolutely intolerable for Lin Fan.

The next level up after utmost celestial was earth celestial. No matter what, he had to hurry and make his way up there to be an earth celestial!

Lin Fan was standing on top of an ancient tree at this moment, preparing to take a short break. However, a sudden rumble from the distance managed to catch his attention.

That was the sound of an Ancient beast. Furthermore, by the sounds of it, it seems like there was a fight going on right now!

Lin Fan’s heart was suddenly filled with hope! As the saying went, ‘ The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it.’ Lin Fan wanted to be that oriole!

To the current Lin Fan, any small fish in this world right now was like a gigantic whale of experience points for him to boost his power level! The Lin Fan who had gradually gotten lazier over time was finally starting to regain his initial diligence.

Entering Stealth mode, Lin Fan shiftily made his way over to the commotion.

The beasts in this world were exceptionally sensitive towards one’s aura. Since Lin Fan’s aura was hidden by the system, he couldn’t be sensed by these creatures.

However, one still had to take extra precautions nevertheless.

The closer Lin Fan approached, the louder the commotion got.

But this only served to make Lin Fan ever happier. By the sounds of it, both sides seemed to be pretty formidable! Could it be two high leveled beasts duking it out?

That thought alone had Lin Fan’s heart blossoming with flowers like Spring. This was indeed the sort of reaping that Lin Fan loved to come across the most.

Hiding on a big old tree, Lin Fan looked down at the scene below. But instead, what he saw nearly had him puking out blood.

A beast was riding on top of another beast, humping down rapidly.

And that commotion from earlier? Naturally, it was caused by these two.

To think that these two beasts would be conducting such indecent acts under the brilliant night skies!

‘Hais…’ Lin Fan gave off a long, exasperated sigh.

‘Ancient Beast: Vixen Beast. Utmost celestial full cultivation.’

‘Ancient Beast: Blue Eyed White Wolf. Utmost celestial full cultivation.’

...

"Forget it, two utmost celestial full cultivation beasts are better than nothing. Time to reap them up." Even though Lin Fan was a little disappointed, he took it in his stride. Even if this weren’t the perfect scenario he had visualized, so what?

Just as Lin Fan was about to take action, he stopped and let down his hands.

‘Hais, no matter what, I feel a little guilty for killing you two while you’re experiencing such great pleasure. Guess I’ll just wait for you guys to have your fill of pleasure before I chop you guys down." Lin Fan thought in his head and just waited.

After all, he was a compassionate man.

At that moment, the Blue Eye White Wolf was grabbing the butt cheeks of the Vixen Beast with his claws. He gave off a wild howl as his entire body shivered, like he was firing off billions of bullets into the enemy fortress.

‘RAWR…!!!’ The Vixen Beast howled. Within those eyes was an evident look of displeasure, as she used her hind legs to kick the Blue Eye White Wolf away.

The Blue Eye White Wolf didn’t get worked up over this kick. In fact, he was closing his eyes blissfully, as though he was reminiscing over that wonderful sensation. After that, he got up and left slowly.

Lin Fan did not know what was happening. But just as he was about to take action, his face changed once more. He could sense another Ancient beast approaching from the distance.

BOOM! BOOM!

The stomping of the ground with the wild run was getting closer, as yet another fou- legged Ancient beast made its way over.

‘Ancient Beast: Azure Ghoul Tiger. Earth celestial lower level.’

"Eh? To think that it’s an earth celestial beast!" Looking at this tiger whose entirely body was gleaming with an eerie glow, Lin Fan grinned.

He had walked through the entire area during the daytime, but he had yet to bump into an earth celestial beast! To think that he would meet one here. Now, this was worth waiting for!

Could it be that he had selected the wrong location to camp at, and thus he did not meet with any earth celestial beasts during the day?

Seemed like after he was done reaping these things, he would need to test things out further.

Just then, yet another shocking scene happened.

This Azure Ghoul Tiger wasn’t the same type of beast as the Vixen Beast. However, just like the Blue Eye White Wolf, it leaped up and began humping that same portion of the Vixen Beast’s body.

Lin Fan’s jaws fell as he gaped at the scene below with a look of disbelief.

‘Just what in the world is going on right now! Could there be the idea of bestiality even amongst beasts themselves?!’ Lin Fan felt his own perception of life being refreshed entirely.

This scene of discovery was filling Lin Fan with curiosity.

Under the clear night skies, Lin Fan was like a peeping tom. Silently hiding in the trees, he engaged in voyeurism the entire night.

As time passed, Lin Fan finally understood what in the world was happening. At the same time, the feeling of elation within his heart only grew deeper.

He had found a new method to slay these beasts!

Even though he did not know what sort of a beast this Vixen Beast was, he knew that she had a special skill that could attract all the surrounding male beasts in the vicinity to head forth and bang her.

Even while these Ancient beasts came and left happily, Lin Fan could tell the difference in the auras of these male beasts. It was as though some of their aura had been infused within the body of the Vixen Beast.

Seemed like this Vixen Beast was using their Yang to replenish her Yin!

Each time a male beast left, the Vixen Beast would stand there and howl once more. That single howl seemed to be the call of attraction for the nearby male beasts.

Entering Stealth mode, Lin Fan made his way slowly towards the Vixen Beast. The Nine Five Legendary Brick was ready in his hands.

He must definitely get his hands on this Vixen Beast! The rise of Yours Truly depended on this beast right here!

The moment Lin Fan revealed himself, he was discovered by the Vixen Beast as she gave off a furious roar.

"LIE DOWN, B*TCH!"

BAM!

With a single knock of the Nine Five Legendary Brick, she laid down obediently. But just at that moment, Lin Fan heard some noises from the nearby forest. Keeping the Vixen Beast in his storage, he snuck up the big tree once more.

Just as Lin Fan hid himself in the tree, a stimulated male beast was rushing over here happily. However, upon the sight of the empty clearing, the beast was filled with a deep look of disappointment.

The beast surveyed his surroundings and growled out a few times. However, upon receiving zero replies, it left this place dejected as ever.

‘Whew! That was close! I was nearly discovered!’ Lin Fan patted his chest as he heaved in relief, beaming brilliantly. He had only one thought on his mind right now. He had to start utilizing the special traits of this Vixen Beast!

Lin Fan rubbed his chin and lowered his head, deep in thought. Suddenly, his face blushed.

‘No, no! I can’t do that…! That’s really too evil!’

‘But this is the only chance to do so! Besides, no one else will know! It’s definitely going to work out!’

‘Aiyo! I am the mighty sixth Grandmaster of Saint Devil Sect! How can I do such a beastly thing!’

‘Forget it! If I’m a beast, so be it! No one will know anyways!’

...

At that moment, Lin Fan opened his storage and started searching for some suitable medicinal herbs.

He was ready to create it.

The most devious and evil pill in this world.

A pill which would cause the gods to feel wrath.

A pill which would cause all humans to feel ashamed.

A mythical pill.



Chapter 450: This Is Poisonous...!

With Lin Fan’s current standards of cultivating pills, he was extremely familiar with the effects of things like Xuan Yang Grass, Intense Yang Grass, and their combined outcomes. Therefore, there was no pill that Lin Fan could not create. The only limit was that of his imagination.

With Pills Through Thought, a single mythical flame burned on Lin Fan’s palms. He then tossed the medicinal herbs within and began cultivating.

Within that mythical flame, the herbs began to melt and fuse into a single liquid. They then began to regroup continuously, giving off the aroma of pills.

This scent was fragrant. Just the aroma of it alone could let one tell that this was a superb pill for sure.

However, Lin Fan was the only one who truly knew what sort of a pill this was.

‘Ding…congratulations on cultivating mysterious pill. Please name it.’

Lin Fan rubbed his chin and rolled his eyelids. What should he call it? Naming pills was a difficult task, that required deep knowledge and creative insight. The name itself could display the wisdom of its creator. However, it had to relate to the effects of the pill well.

‘Alright then, it’s decided.’

‘F*ck of Poison.’

‘Ding…congratulations on naming success.’

...

‘Hehehe…’ Lin Fan sniggered, as he retrieved the Vixen Beast from his storage. Right now, the Vixen Beast was unconscious, thanks to the wondrous effects of Lin Fan’s Nine Five Legendary Brick.

Lin Fan pinched the pill, which burst into a cloud of powder in an instant. This powder landed on the butt of the Vixen Beast.

Once everything was done, Lin Fan placed the Vixen Beast back where she was, and headed back up to the tree alone, camping in his Stealth mode, biding his time.

One minute later…

‘ROAR…!’ The Vixen Beast jerked up suddenly. Those eyes were filled with caution as she gazed at her surroundings warily. However, she was confused to find no one else in her vicinity.

The Vixen Beast then raised her head and turned around, checking if there were any wounds or damage to her body. There was nothing.

Eventually, she tossed her head in bewilderment as she could not understand what had just happened.

Anything these beasts couldn’t figure out would be just left to be. There was no point racking their brains over things like that.

‘RAWR…!!!’

The Vixen Beast howled up into the skies. This single howl permeated through the night skies.

Lin Fan watched the scene with bated breath and extreme anticipation. He couldn’t wait to tell if his drug had succeeded.

If it did, then this was going to be damn awesome, hehe...

STOMP! STOMP!

Just then, the racing sounds of a beast stamping on the ground from a distance rang through. Lin Fan’s face tightened. This Ancient beast was the first tester for him to find out if his pill would take this beast down!

Lin Fan turned over to look at the approaching beast. Immediately, he couldn’t hide his momentary disappointment. To think that this was just an utmost celestial middle-level beast! What a letdown!

But it didn’t matter. No matter what cultivation state this beast was, the most important thing right now was to find out if the pill had succeeded.

Upon catching sight of that Vixen Beast under the beautiful moonlight, the approaching beast pounced over in happiness. Sniffing the aura on the Vixen Beast up and down, he let out a drunken look of intoxication.

The Vixen Beast looked over at this new beast and snorted a few times. She was evidently looking down on this beast in disdain! If Lin Fan could understand the speech of beasts, he would definitely have his mind blown apart right now.

‘Your cultivation state is so low! Get the hell lost!’

‘One time, please! Just let me do you one time! Please, pretty please…!’ The beast howled pitifully a few times as he circled around the Vixen Beast, begging her for mercy.

The Vixen Beast then gave off a low gruntle, as though she had decided to take pity and agree with it.

Filled with happiness, the male beast leaped into the air! He then leaned on the body of the Vixen Beast with excitement in his eyes.

Lin Fan observed the entire show without losing focus, all the while muttering, "Go down…go down…go down…!"

This male beast was humping happily and excitedly when it suddenly stopped all motion. It retreated slowly on all four legs, its motion unsteady.

The Vixen Beast frowned and turned around to look at this male beast. Displeasure was written all over her face.

The eyes of the male beast were filled with disbelief, as his head started spinning into a daze.

BOOM!

Suddenly, the male beast collapsed onto the ground. The only last words on his mind were…

‘This f*ck is poisonous…’

...

‘It worked…!’ Lin Fan held his hands together excitedly. It had worked! Yes! Now was the time to patiently await the arrival of more beasts!

This pill’s effect could last for a long time! He could definitely knock out more beasts with this!

Looking at this male beast that was laying on the ground, the Vixen Beast roared at it repeatedly. She then gave this beast a good, strong kick.

It was her way of expressing, ‘How dare you come so hard on me when you don’t even have any bit of stamina? What a waste of time…!’

The Vixen Beast cast a look of contempt at this beast that was motionless on the ground. She then reared her head up and howled out once more.

Not long after, yet another beast had arrived for a new round.

This beast was an earth celestial lower level beast. Lin Fan was pleased with this, as he nodded his head repeatedly in acknowledgment.

The male beast came before the Vixen Beast. Looking at that collapsed beast on the ground, he began to sniff around suspiciously. Yet, he couldn’t find anything amiss about this situation.

The Vixen Beast growled to the male beast, as though they were conversing.

And just as Lin Fan expected, this male beast rose up to the occasion.

But not long after, this male beast gave off yet another cry. His body wavered as he collapsed to the ground with a loud thud as well.

The final thoughts of this male beast were the same as the guy before him, ‘This f*ck is poisonous…!’

Hiding on the tree, Lin Fan, who was observing this scene, was overfilled with glee in his heart. Two beasts down! This was a strong pill indeed!

But he wondered how strong this pill could get. What was the limit of beast cultivation that it could knock out?

Lin Fan lowered his head in contemplation. He could give this a shot.

After that, he disappeared from his position above the trees as he headed out to look for more beasts.

In the night time, many beasts were out, roaming actively. However, all of these ancient beasts had cultivation states that were too low for Lin Fan’s likings. Given his current circumstances, he needed to make good use of this opportunity.

‘Eh…there’s a BOSS!’ Lin Fan could feel a formidable aura appearing in the distance.

Under the guise of the moonlight, he shifted swiftly as he made his way over and soon arrived at the territory of this aura.

‘Ancient Beast: Single Arm Berserk Ape. Earth celestial full cultivation.’

Right in front of Lin Fan was a colossal ape who was resting in his own hideout, shutting his eyes and napping. Just a single look at that massive body was enough to send shivers down one’s spine.

If Lin Fan had to deal with this beast head-on, he was sure that he wasn’t a match, and might end up even losing his life to it.

The Vixen Beast’s howl was piercing in this silent night. However, it couldn’t attract this Single Arm Berserk Ape in the least bit.

Lin Fan thought for a moment. Suddenly, he sniggered.

‘It’s okay if you’re not interested. I’ll make YOU interested. The rise of Yours Truly depends on you… Hehehe.’ At that moment, Lin Fan took out a bunch of Biggras. He had the utmost confidence in his magnificent Biggras and their effects.

Lin Fan tossed the bunch of Biggras over to the Single Arm Berserk Ape.

Deep in his sleep, the Single Arm Berserk Ape suddenly jerked awake. He had sensed an intruder!

‘Burst…’

Suddenly, all the Biggras burst into a tuft of smoke, encompassing the Single Arm Berserk Ape within.

With a single breath, the Single Arm Berserk Ape breathed in all of the mist into its tummy.

‘ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’

Suddenly, that initially calm and reserved Single Arm Berserk Ape literally went berserk as his eyes shone with madness. His towering figure stood tall under the night skies. It was especially so for that gigantic object between his crotch that had gone berserk.

Once more, the cries of the Vixen Beast rang over. This time around, the eyes of the Single Arm Berserk Ape shone brightly in excitement. It was as though he had finally discovered something. With a single leap, he burst over in the direction of the howl.

‘HAHA…! Yours Truly is a genius indeed!’ Looking at that figure running off, Lin Fan could not help but snigger.

But just then, something suddenly struck Lin Fan! This Single Arm Berserk Ape’s body was so huge! Could the Vixen Beast withstand him?!

"HOLY SH*T…!" At the thought of this, Lin Fan suddenly had an ominous feeling as he darted over.

This Vixen Beast was his legendary weapon for seducing beasts!

Holy sh*t! Things would be bad if she was ravaged and toyed to death by that Single Arm Berserk Ape!



Chapter 451 I'll Slay, and I'll Slay, and I'll Slay, and...!

Right now, the Vixen Beast was feeling extremely bewildered. Looking at the beasts that were lying on the ground one by one, she was extremely confused. Just what in the world was up with these guys Why were all of them ‘second’ beasts!

Each and every one of these beasts collapsed after a few mere seconds! None of them had any stamina at all.

She hadn’t even sucked up any Yang energy from them yet…!

Could it be because she was way too beautiful Could they have all fainted over from her outrageous beauty

At this point, that was the only thought that the Vixen Beast could think of.

‘ROAR…!’

At that moment, the roar of a wild beast rang over. Looking at that tender body of the Vixen Beast, this new male beast’s eyes were filled with immense lust.

Looking at the arrival of yet another beast, the Vixen Beast called out loudly. Her call was filled with the seductive tones that a beauty like her should have.

Upon hearing this sweet, sweet melody, the male beast’s body shuddered momentarily. He then leaped over in a frenzy. He was determined to take this woman under his control!

Looking at how the large muscles of this beast compared to those from before, the Vixen Beast was excited beyond measure!

This time, this beast should be able to sustain for a much longer duration! If she did not collect enough Yang essence, her Master would definitely get angry at her!

The beast came before the Vixen Beast and sniffed around gently. He then stuck out his tongue and twirled it around with carnage lust, expressing the excitement in his heart.

And just as this beast was about to press down the Vixen Beast under his control, another wild howl boomed out from the distant forest.

The trees toppled down as the stomping from the footsteps got even closer.

BOOOOOOM!

A gargantuan figure had appeared before the Vixen Beast.

The Single Arm Berserk Ape’s breathing was haphazard right now. Each breath that he huffed out was steaming with heat, evaporating the moisture in the air before him into mist.

Sensing the explosive aura of this Single Arm Berserk Ape, that male beast from before was petrified right now.

However, he had to maintain his image of a man before this Vixen Beast. How could he bow down in cowardice just because of this aura from the Single Arm Berserk Ape

‘ROAR…!’ The male beast growled back at the Single Arm Berserk Ape.

It was as though he was informing him, ‘Follow the rules! No matter who you are, you’ve got to queue up accordingly!’

The Vixen Beast stared at this male beast in disbelief. To think that this weak little beast would show no signs of fear against the fearsome looking Single Arm Berserk Ape! Could it be that he was captivated by her beauty

BAM!!!

That single massive arm of the Single Arm Berserk Ape sent this male beast flying straight up into the skies.

Right now, the light in the Single Arm Berserk Ape’s eyes was bright and limitless. Even the Vixen Beast was starting to feel some fear right now.

‘RAWR…!’ With a single howl, the Vixen Beast started to run away!

This Single Arm Berserk Ape before her was simply way too massive! She was afraid that she couldn’t withstand him!

But of course, how could the Single Arm Berserk Ape allow this prey of his to just run away like this

There was a raging flame that was burning within his body, causing him to lose his sense of logic.

Release!

All he needed was an urgent release!

‘RAWR…!!!’ The Vixen Beast struggled, trying to break free. However, in the face of this Single Arm Berserk Ape, she was too small and puny.

...

Catching up from his chase, Lin Fan was stumped at the scene before him.

‘Shit, it’s over…!’

‘No one can save the Vixen Beast now!’

Now that Lin Fan had fed the Single Arm Berserk Ape so many Biggras, he had long entered a state of frenzy! The only thought on the Single Arm Berserk Ape’s mind right now was to pierce through any single gap he could see!

In fact, it was hard to say. This Single Arm Berserk Ape might even pierce Lin Fan himself after ravishing the Vixen Beast!

Standing atop the gigantic tree, Lin Fan could not bear to view the scene directly.

The tragic cries of the Vixen Beast boomed like thunder within Lin Fan’s ears. It was filled with sorrow and misery.

For the Single Arm Berserk Ape, the Vixen Beast was nothing but a Tenga Egg right now.

This was an unbearable sight to behold…!

Lin Fan covered his eyes as he couldn’t bear it any longer. This was an eye piercing scene! So traumatic!

BOOM!

Suddenly, a loud booming sound rang through. That gargantuan body of the Single Arm Berserk Ape had fallen onto the ground suddenly. It tried strugglingly to get up, but it was weak and feeble. Eventually, it gave up and succumbed to the weakness, closing his eyes entirely.

Seeing the sight below, Lin Fan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Seemed like the effects were still pretty evident. But, it was a pity that it was all over for the Vixen Beast now…

At this moment, the Vixen Beast laid on the ground. Her eyes were lifeless as she breathed slowly. However, Lin Fan knew that she was close to death’s door.

‘Hais, what a tragedy…’ Lin Fan shook his head helplessly. He then took out his Eternal Axe to get ready for the reaping.

‘Ding…congratulations on killing utmost celestial full cultivation Vixen Beast.’

‘Ding…experience points +100.’

Since she was about to die anyway, he might as well reap her for himself.

...

At the very moment Lin Fan killed the Vixen Beast, in a campsite not far away…

A member of the Ancient race jerked his closed eyes wide open. On that hideous looking face, a look of wrath burst out from within.

‘Who dares to kill my Vixen Beast! Hmph…!’

In an instant, the figure disappeared entirely from the campsite.

...

Looking at the beasts that had fallen around him, Lin Fan nodded in satisfaction. Even though this Vixen Beast had died a tragic death, she had done something that no other beast could have done for him.

What a respectable beast she was…

Dozens of beasts laid motionless in the area.

And the reason for this was that mythical pill which Lin Fan had created. However, to these beasts, this was a tragic day.

‘I’ll slay…!’ Raising his Eternal Axe, Lin Fan was like Jack the Ripper right now, his eyes shining with perversion.

He swung down.

‘Ding…congratulations on killing utmost celestial full cultivation beast.’

‘Ding…experience points +100.’

‘Ding…congratulations on killing earth celestial lower level beast.’

‘Ding…experience points +500’

...

Lin Fan was having an extremely relaxed life right now slaying left and right. All of these fainted beasts died without a single peep, as they were all converted into experience points for the strengthening of Lin Fan.

He collected everything along the way till he finally came to the Single Arm Berserk Ape.

‘Ding…congratulations on killing earth celestial full cultivation Single Arm Berserk Ape.’

‘Ding…experience points +4,000.’

...

HAHA! WHAT A SPREAD! The more beasts I slay, the more pleasurable it gets!

Absorb Demonic Qi…!

Flicking his robes, Lin Fan took in all of the Demonic Qi from these ancient beasts into his Demon City. Converting them into nutrients, he nourished and repaired that semi-finished, pseudo-legendary weapon, ‘Demon City’.

Lin Fan’s biggest hope right now was to raise his personal strength as well as repair his Demon City.

Lin Fan pulled out his information panel and took a look.

‘Bloody hell! I’m still short of 2,000 experience points!’

The experience points that he had gotten from reaping these beasts were plentiful indeed. However, he was still that bit of distance away from leveling up.

‘Seems like it’s going to be yet another restless night tonight.’ Lin Fan faced the skies and heaved out a long sigh. If he didn’t get his cultivation state up, he would definitely be pretty restless for the entire night.

‘Single Arm Berserk Ape, you fcking apesht moron! How dare you kill Yours Truly’s Vixen Beast! You’ve really caused Yours Truly a huge ton of frustration!’ Lin Fan huffed out in displeasure.

If he had the Vixen Beast, Lin Fan was confident that he could definitely wipe out this entire area in a short period of time. He could kill all of the beasts here easily for sure! But now, his capability to do that was no longer existent.

...

Hmph, so you’re the one who killed my Vixen Beast…! Just then, a furious voice boomed out from skies as the voids rippled and broke apart.

Lin Fan was stunned. He had not expected that the Vixen Beast was somebody’s pet!

Just as he was about to enter Stealth mode, a lone figure appeared before him.

‘Ancient race…!’ The moment Lin Fan clearly made out the features of this figure, his face changed.

This hideous creature beyond measures was someone from the Ancient race! Lin Fan had not expected to go against anyone from the Ancient race so soon! He wanted to make a break for it!

But, when he caught sight of the Ancient race being’s cultivation state, Lin Fan flicked his robes.

Hands behind his back, he glared at this Ancient race being straight in the eyes.

That’s right! Your Granddaddy here killed that Vixen Beast. What You’re unhappy over it

Of course, Lin Fan would not forget about his true way of life

‘Fck up the weak, fck off against the strong.’



Chapter 452: Breakdown! Complete and Utter Breakdown!

"Human race?" The moment the Ancient race being caught sight of Lin Fan, he wasn't too certain at first. However, after further scrutiny, he burst out into laughter, "HAHA! To think that you truly are from the human race…!"

Upon realizing that Lin Fan was a human, that initially furious wrath of the Ancient race being disappeared entirely. In its place was a sense of excitement.

"What's wrong with the human race? Have you gone silly?" Upon looking at the expressions of the Ancient race being, Lin Fan was astonished.

"Don't tell me that the human race is your daddy? Is that why you're so happy? Because Daddy's here? But don't worry too much, kiddo. Your Daddy here already has a cheap son. Someone like you isn't qualified to my Your Daddy's new son." Lin Fan chuckled.

"HAHA! To think that the humankind still doesn't know that their race is on the brink of extinction. Seems like the gods of the Ancient Saint Heavens are blessing me, for me, Gu Hai, to be able to find a human! If I bring you back, I'll certainly get a huge amount of credit for it!" That malevolent face of Gu Hai was guffawing wildly.

His gaze at Lin Fan was the exact same as a predator watching its prey.

Lin Fan did not know what this guy was up to.

But by the looks of it, he DID seem pretty excited.

Could it be that the human race was pretty important to the Ancient race?

At this moment, Lin Fan sized up Gu Hai carefully. He was pitch-black all over, with an extremely hideous face. Compared to the human race, he was around fifty percent taller, causing him to seem like a mini-giant. Those veiny muscles looked like they were about to burst out with power.

Other than that, he looked exactly the same as any other human.

But, if the Ancient One belonged to this Ancient race, then the Ancient One must have been the highest level of existence within this race. As for this Gu Hai, he was practically the lowest level of existence in comparison.

Earth celestial middle level.

This cultivation state wasn't that high. Lin Fan had the confidence in taking him down.

"Human, you better follow me obediently. Or, would you rather be dragged away by me after I turn you into an ic-cold corpse?' Looking at this human before him, Gu Hai placed a foot forward. That single footing contained a massive amount of energy, bursting out massively and covering the entire surroundings within it.

Now that he had discovered this human, he did not want to let him slip from his grasp. Hence, he had to ensure that he was well prepared for anything.

Lin Fan's current physical body state was at Imperishable full cultivation state. He was around 2,900 experience points away from leveling up.

If he had to make a comparison of cultivation state, his physical body should only be able to withstand blows of any being up to the utmost celestial full cultivation state.

However, Gu Hai was an earth celestial middle-level being. But, based on the situation, Lin Fan knew that this Ancient race being would most probably not deal any lethal damage to him.

Even if he decided to go lethal, Lin Fan wasn't that afraid either. After all, it wasn't anything easy for someone to want to kill anybody like Lin Fan.

"Hmph, you wanna take me away? Well, we'll just have to see if you've got what it takes to do so then!" Lin Fan snorted coldly without a single bit of respect towards Gu Hai.

And as expected, Lin Fan's reaction had caused Gu Hai to fly into a maddened rage.

"Since that's the case, then you're courting your own death!" Instantly, that malicious face of Gu Hai revealed a cold smile. Disappearing from where he was, he teleported right in front of Lin Fan instantly and sent out a tremendous punch.

BAM!

Lin Fan used his hand to block this. Despite that, the massive surge of energy that was emanated from the punch caused Lin Fan to be sent flying into the distance.

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +200.'

"Hmph, know your place…!" Looking at this human who was sent flying by a single punch of his, Gu Hai's face was filled with contempt.

Lying on the ground, Lin Fan could not help but think that the punch's strength was pretty decent. Of course, a punch of this level couldn't probably cause him to bleed in any way. But, based on the circumstances right now, if Lin Fan did not spit out some blood of his own, this Ancient race being might take a blow to his confidence.

With that, Lin Fan held his breath and gradually spat out some fresh blood from his mouth.

Following which, Lin Fan 'struggled' to stand up. With a hand clutching his chest, he gave off a look of torment as he continued, "Y-your punch didn't hurt at all…!"

"HAHAHAHA! HUMAN! You're simply way too weak! In order not to kill you, I've only used 30% of my strength earlier on! To think that you would still dare to talk back and put on a strong front! I'll let you know of Gu Hai's true powers!" Gu Hai laughed maniacally as he rushed forth towards Lin Fan once more. A single fist which tore through the void appeared right before Lin Fan.

BAM!

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +200.'

Lin Fan flew away once more. Looking at the beautiful night skies while he was flying away, he could not help but sigh exasperatedly. Seemed like show business was a tough career for an actor at times.

'Urgh…!'

Yet another fresh mouthful of blood was spat out as Lin Fan pretended that he almost couldn't take it anymore.

Lin Fan shook uncontrollably as he stood up. He stretched out a single finger, and with a shine of unyieldingness in his eyes, he went on, "I'll never go down!"

"Hmph…! We'll see how long more you can talk back for then!" Looking at how this human did not know his place, Gu Hai revealed a cruel laugh. "You had better stay down obediently!'"

BAM!

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +200.'

...

"I'll never submit to you!" Lin Fan was like a stubborn 14-year-old adolescent right now, yelling with absolute indignance.

"Shut up!"

BAM!

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +200.'

"Your fist can't kill me!"

"Shut up!"

...

"You bloody human! Since you're asking for death, then don't blame me!" Gu Hai was totally riled right now. To think that this human before him could be so resilient! How was he not dead after being walloped down so many times!

"LONG LIVE THE HUMAN RACE…!"

"YOURS TRULY ISNT AFRAID OF YOU…!"

"YOU CAN'T KILL YOURS, TRULY NOPE!"

...

"Can you bloody use some strength!?" Lin Fan had been enduring Gu Hai's punches all this while. However, now that his experience points for Eternal Immortality had stopped increasing, he leaped up suddenly and lashed out at Gu Hai.

"Eh…?" Gu Hai was stunned, totally bewildered by this human before him. Wasn't this fella half dead just moments earlier?! How was he revitalized in an instant?!

Lin Fan's facial expression changed at that moment as well. Sh*t! Not good! He was going to be caught with his acting at this rate! No, but that was not for sure either. He looked at the Gu Hai. This person didn't seem to have a really high intellect.

Changing his face once more, Lin Fan spat out three mouthfuls of blood continuously. His finger then wavered and trembled, pointing outwards as though he was on the brink of death, "Y-you'll never kill me…!"

That stunned Gu Hai immediately recovered from his stupor as he hollered out, "Brazen! You had better lie down…!"

Looking at that fearsome punch of Gu Hai, Lin Fan's heart leaped with joy. 'Bloody hell yes! It's finally here!'

BAM!

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +300.'

'Ding…Congratulations on Eternal Immortality leveling up.'

'Ding…Congratulations on physical body state leveling up.'

'Physical Body State: Earth celestial lower level cultivation state.'

...

At this moment, Lin Fan's lips curled into a grin.

What an arduous trial he had to go through to finally have his physical body state level up!

"You bloody human! Just what in the world is wrong with you? Why can't you die…? Impossible…!" Gu Hai's punches were raining on Lin Fan's body like a torrent of water. Yet, it was as though this human could just not die, as he stood up time after time after every single punch.

In fact, each time he stood up, he was sent flying by Gu Hai's own punch!

But still, he stood up yet again!

This continuous cycle of ups and downs had Gu Hai's mind almost breaking down.

"You can't kill me…" At this moment, Lin Fan struggled to stand up once more.

"I-impossible…!" Gu Hai was almost breaking down entirely right now. Both of his hands were scratching his head furiously as he howled, "YOU GO AND DIE…!"

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!

It was a 360 degrees roundhouse punch. Receiving this punch, Lin Fan sighed in exasperation once more. Seemed like Gu Hai was really on the brink of breaking down mentally right now.

How long had it been since he had caused someone such anguish?

Looking at this human who had fallen onto the ground, Gu Hai's heart was chanting furiously. 'He must now allow this human to get back on his feet once more! Definitely not!'

"Y-you can't kill me…!" Lin Fan stood up once again. In Lin Fan's mind, however, he was ready to reap in this guy by now.

"YOU…!" Looking at this resolute human who was standing firmly once more, Gu Hai stumbled back a few steps in absolute disbelief.

He was a noble warrior of the Ancient race! How could he not kill a single human?!



Chapter 453: Nearly Got Kill Stealed!

While Lin Fan was standing up against Gu Hai, two figures floated silently up in the quiet night skies.

They had been observing the happenings below for a really long time now. At the same time, they were pretty astonished at what they had been seeing.

They had not expected someone so resilient to appear in the Ancient Saint World. To think that he could retain such tenacity even while he was facing up against an Ancient race being!

"Just what sort of powers are backing that person?" Within the void, a young man mumbled to himself in utter disbelief.

"He said that he's from the human race. Perhaps that's the reason?" The girl beside her was fraught with astonishment in her brows as well.

It had been quite a while since they were up there watching from the void. Initially, the could not make out the situation at all. Hence, they didn't dare to make any noise. After all, the Ancient Saint World was fraught with dangers. One had to tread with caution in everything they did.

The fact that there was an Ancient race being below was especially precarious for these two figures in the sky.

Even though they were hesitant to head down and take a look, their hearts were starting to waver the more they watched.

The fact that this human race being wouldn't relent no matter how much he was struck down by the Ancient race being was especially heart clenching. In fact, he was even hollering out.

'LONG LIVE THE HUMANS!'

'YOU CAN'T KILL ME…!'

Those words alone were like thunderbolts, striking away at the insecurities within their hearts.

Their race once had the same pride as this man. However, in this cruel world, there were many traitors that had appeared in various races. These traitors backstabbed people of their own races and bowed down to the Ancient race, all in the name of survival.

"Someone like him mustn't die here." The woman beside the man spoke up.

"That's right. In the Ancient Saint World, a loyal man like him is definitely rare." The man replied.

"The aura of that Ancient race being is strong. He should probably be an earth celestial middle-level being. But, if the two of us don't mess up, we should be able to kill him." The man continued.

"Brother Xu, your Vajra Sword Will has reached a state of perfection, where it could meld entirely within the void. If this Ancient race being does not notice us, we can probably do it." The female carried on.

"Alright…" Zhang Xu nodded his head. In that instant, he waved two fingers. A flash of golden sword gleam sliced through the void silently and headed downwards undetected.

...

Looking at how the Ancient race being was about to breakdown, Lin Fan was overwhelmed with joy. He had already gotten most of what he had wanted. It was time to slay this being!

"HUMAN! WHY DO YOU JUST REFUSE TO GO DOWN…?" Gu Hai howled madly into the skies. The amount of energy that was emanating from his body was wild. In fact, he himself was getting dazed and confused over everything!

"You…" Lin Fan's face was calm right now. However, just as he was about to hurl some insults in the face of Gu Hai, a razor-sharp force pierced down from the void above.

'Holy f*ck! There's a kill stealer!' Lin Fan's face changed. Who in the world could tolerate this? This Ancient race being was about to be killed by him! Yet, someone had appeared and wanted to take this last hit for themselves?! Intolerable!

Whether or not he could level up depended on this Ancient race being!

That razor sharp and relentless sword will pierced through the void. Lin Fan was sure that this Ancient race being would definitely be sliced into two if he did not dodge this sword will.

But looking at the situation before him, it was evident that Gu Hai had not noticed this sword will that was hidden within the void.

"You had better…STOP THAT!" Suddenly, Lin Fan leaped up from the ground. He rushed forward to Gu Hai and sent him flying in a single kick.

At that instant, that relentless sword will emerged out of the void with tremendous force right before Lin Fan as it slammed down deep into the ground.

"Whew! What a close shave…!" Lin Fan could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he had managed to reach there in time. Otherwise, if this Gu Hai had been slain by the sword will, then he would really have to bawl out in tears.

Seeing this, the expressions of both figures in the sky changed, "Hurry! Let's go! Those two must be working together to trick us!"

Looking at how the human had kicked away Gu Hai from his sword will, there was only a single possibility that came into Zhang Xu's mind. That human must not have been what they thought he was! There was a pretty high chance that he was working with this Ancient race being all along just to put on an act!

And just as both of them were making haste to escape, a voice rang out.

"I don't need anyone's help for this affair! This fella has humiliated my race! I have to kill him myself for the sake of my honor!" Of course, Lin Fan could say outright that Gu Hai was his experience points. If these guys were to kill him, Yours Truly would have lost all his efforts from before!

Zhang Xu's brows creased. The girl beside him felt the same bewilderment as well.

Gu Hai, who was sent flying by Lin Fan, shrugged his head and sobered up.

"DAMN IT…!" Gu Hai glared at Lin Fan. He then glared at the two figures up in the skies, as his face got ever more malicious.

"How dare you humiliate the human race? I shall kill you off today!" Now that there were observers around, Lin Fan could no longer fool around with this Ancient race being.

VING!

Suddenly, Lin Fan vanished from where he was. The next time he appeared, he was right before Gu Hai's face.

"What?!" Gu Hai was evidently in disbelief. How could this human suddenly turn this strong?!

"I'll slay…!" With the Eternal Axe in his arms, Lin Fan swung down massively.

BAM!

Gu Hai's pupils were dilated suddenly. He could not believe that he would die in the hands of a human. And one that he had half beaten to death at that.

"I am a Decanus of the Ancient race, and I'm blessed by the Heavens! You shall be tormented with a fate of being hunted down by the Ancient race for the rest of your life…!" With that, something shocking happened right before Lin Fan's eyes.

From the two halves of Gu Hai's body that were split apart by the Eternal Axe rose a singular red light. Those eyes of Gu Hai's body glared at Lin Fan with a demonic gaze, as though they were carving his features into his memory.

In that instant, the entire flash of red light erupted outwards from Gu Hai's body and disappeared between the Heaven and Earth.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Earth celestial Ancient race being.'

'Ding…Experience points +2,000.'

'Ding…Congratulations on leveling up.'

'Cultivation State: Earth Celestial Lower Level.'

...

At that moment, Lin Fan was doused in the pleasure of leveling up, as he could feel the massive surge of energy entering his body. Even though this wasn't the first time he had experienced such a feeling, it was still great each time he leveled up again.

Up in the void, both figures were astounded as well. This human was so strong! Then, how was he walloped so badly by that Ancient race being earlier!

"My gratitude to the both of you for your help earlier on." Lin Fan cusped his fists together and thanked those two figures in the voids. At the same time, he was curious.

These two looked exactly the same as humans.

However, there was a sharp glow of light that surrounded their bodies.

The two figures slowly descended from the skies, "I am Zhang Xu from the Sword World. This is my fellow race member, Hai Lan."

"I am Lin Fan from Xuanhuang World." Lin Fan replied.

Indeed, the universe was infinitely large indeed. Seemed like humans were not the only beings with their appearances. There were other beings from other worlds that possessed similar looks as well.

But, what was up with this Sword World and what not? Did it mean that they were always playing with swords?

Lin Fan naturally had to try to keep these two here. He had to dig out more information.

By the looks of it, these two must have been living in the Ancient Saint World for quite some time now. They must know a couple of things here and there.

Lin Fan then initiated the conversation with the both of them, asking the many questions that he had and did not know the answers for.



Chapter 454: A Small, Humble Goal

"What?! You mean to tell me that I'm now a fugitive of the Ancient race? How could that be? No one even saw me killing him!" Lin Fan was lighting up a bonfire when he was stunned by the words of Zhang Xu.

At that moment, the entire woods fell silent, save for the crackling of the bonfire burning the firewood.

Lin Fan had wanted to live life as a wretched vagrant under the radar while he was a weakling! Before he got strong, he had to take every single step one at a time! But now that this Zhang Xu from the Sword World was telling him that he was a fugitive, how was he going to play his game from here on forth?!

"That's right. You remember that final howl of that decanus from the Ancient race? He was making use of the Heaven's Will of the Ancient Saint World to imprint your image over to the rest of his Ancient race tribesmen." Zhang Xu nodded his head as though he was already long used to all this.

"The moment you kill one of them from the Ancient race, you're bound to a life of being pursued relentlessly. The only way forth is to turn stronger." Hai Lan, who had remained silent by the sides, finally spoke up.

"Does this mean that the Heaven's Will of the Ancient Saint World is on the side of the Ancient race?" Lin Fan asked.

"No one knows for sure. But I reckon that your image should have already been spread out amongst those Ancient race beings nearby. You had better tread with caution from here on forth. The moment one of those Ancient race beings kill you, they'll receive the feedback from the Heaven's Will of the Ancient Saint World." Zhang Xu continued.

"Does this mean that the more Ancient race beings I kill, the more wanted I become in their eyes?" Lin Fan asked.

"That's right." Zhang Xu nodded his head. Looking over at Lin Fan, who was deep in his thoughts, Zhang Xu could not help but feel concerned for him. However, there was nothing he could do about it. He sighed eventually and looked up into the skies, "I wonder when we'll get to the end of all this."

Lin Fan was buried deep in his thoughts indeed. 'This method seems good!'

'Someone like Yours Truly, who likes to put on a grand show, will definitely become a godlike character in this world as well! But, what use will it be if Yours Truly can have the Ancient race submit to me without anyone knowing anything about it? How boring would that be!'

But to think that every single Ancient race being he killed would be recorded down, and he would be declared a fugitive by the Heaven's Will of this world…not bad! Not bad indeed!

There was definitely a need to glorify this matter and allow it to invigorate everyone's hearts!

"Brother Lin, it's getting late. It's time for us to leave. I hope that we'll have the chance to meet again once more." After staying for a while, Zhang Xu stood up and clasped his fist together, bidding goodbye to Lin Fan.

"Alright, we'll meet again if we get the chance!" Lin Fan liked to go solo anyways, as he didn't like parties that much. After all, once a party was formed, there would be rules to abide by, and things wouldn't go as easily as right now anyways.

What a pleasurable event it would be for him to run amok in the Ancient Saint World all by himself!

"That's right, there's something else I ought to let you know, Brother Lin. Before you turn stronger, you had better dodge away from the Ancient race beings if you bump into them. After all, if you kill more of them, you might be targeted by some of the really strong ones from the Ancient race. At the same time, you need to be cautious of some other races aside from the Ancient race. That's all, goodbye…" Zhang Xu left his earnest advice as he disappeared together with Hai Lan.

"Bye bye…!" Lin Fan waved his hands towards both of those disappearing people.

'Cautious of some other races aside from the Ancient race?'

Lin Fan was slowly thinking through about these words that Zhang Xu had left behind. But soon after, he chuckled, 'That's right! Yours Truly is such a sinister person. In this dangerous world, who else can I trust other than myself? Hehehe!'

Zhang Xu and Hai Lan, for example, both of them did not trust Lin Fan entirely from the beginning. All they shared with him was information that was commonly known to most people.

Of course, Lin Fan could tell that from their reactions. That's why he did not bother asking them where they were headed for. After all, he knew he wouldn't receive a reply anyways.

...

Thousands of miles away…

Tribesmen of the Ancient race had many campsites and bases all around. Their bases were so huge that one could not even not even make out its boundaries. As for these bases, there were an uncountable number of these in this boundless Ancient Saint World.

Even though different races from the thousands of worlds out there would ascend over here, amounting to a significant number of beings, they still paled in comparison to the Ancient race. The difference in numbers was a gap as great as the Heaven and Earth.

Within a tent…

An Ancient race being was arranging some stuff. Suddenly, the void rippled as a booklet appeared before him.

The malevolent face of the Ancient race being frowned as he took the booklet into his hand. Momentarily, a light screen appeared in the air.

The image on the light screen displayed Lin Fan's final moments of killing Gu Hai.

'Lin Fan of the Human race has killed Ancient race decanus, Gu Hai.'

A line of words appeared in the air.

'To think that it's a human…!' This Ancient race being frowned upon reading those words. His face then grew ever more sinister.

"How dare someone kill my tribesmen in my territory which spans over a few thousand miles?! And to kill a decanus at that! Bloody damn it!" The Ancient race tribesman was filled with anger. Waving out his pitch-black hand, yet another few rows of words appeared.

'Whoever brings his head to me shall earn a place as a member of the Ancient race.'

PSHEWWWWWWWWWWWW!

"Pass down the orders! Kill this man!"

...

Carrying the voice of this Ancient race tribesman, a ball of light flew out of the tent immediately. The moment this ball of light flew out, another Ancient race tribesman entered the tent.

"Sir! Xu Wuxin of the Void World has killed his own father and brought the head over to us!" This soldier knelt down and reported.

"Good. Reward him! He shall be promoted as a centurion of our Ancient race!"

"Yes, Sir."

...

Now that Lin Fan knew that he was a fugitive of the Ancient race, he placed the matter slightly in his heart. At the same time, he gave himself a small little goal: Time to kill more tribesman of the Ancient race!

But based on the current situation, he had to take things steadily.

As he looked at the pitch black, dense forest, all he could do was rub his chin and give himself five words.

'Keep up the good work!'

...

Three days later…

"I'll slay…!"

'URGH…!'

Blood sprayed all over the skies as Lin Fan sliced a beast harshly into two parts.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing utmost celestial upper-level beast.'

'Ding…Experience points +50.'

...

'Hais. So bloody tough! So bloody tiring! I've been chopping down for three days straight now, such that even my wrists are tired of it! Why the hell were all of these a bunch of weak chickens?' Lin Fan was exasperated. Not only were the experience points limited, all of them were dodging and hiding away like little p*ssies! It was difficult trying to find a beast these days.

He looked at his information panel and felt like crying thoroughly.

Name: Lin Fan.

Cultivation State: Earth celestial lower level.

Experience Points: (3,000/20,000)

Physical Body State: Earth celestial lower level.

Physical Body Skill: Eternal Immortality. Level 11.

Physical Body Experience Points: (600/15,000)

Potential: Unlimited.

...

To think that chopping down left and right nonstop for three days would only garner him a mere 3,000 experience points! He was still quite a distance away from leveling up!

The only consolation that Lin Fan had right now was that his energy grid line chains were still being gathered on a daily basis. At the same time, the moment they were gathered, they fused into his physical body state. With that, the toughness of his physical body was constantly increasing.

'Absorb…'

Absorbing all the Demonic Qi did some good to repair Demon City as well. To Lin Fan, this was the most difficult period of his life right now. But once he progressed a little more, that was when Yours Truly would truly shine.

Even though the Ancient Saint World might be the world of nightmares for all the thousands of worlds out there, a man like Lin Fan only had a small and humble goal.

'Chop down the entire Ancient Saint World.'

He had to let all these Ancient race tribesmen fear Yours Truly by just his name alone. The name of Yours Truly would be spread out across this world!

And just then, Lin Fan's brows twitched.

Someone had arrived.

...



Chapter 455: Fan With All My Might!

"That human's location is nearby. I wonder if we can bump into him."

Six Ancient race tribesmen were treading along the dense forest. Each of these tribesmen was accompanied by a leashed beast.

The beasts' size wasn't that huge, and its features resembled a wolf. An eerie green glow emanated from their gazes.

"Hmph, if I bump into that human, I'll be sure to devour him and get a good boost of nutrients from him!"

"I wonder why our Lord would allow those small ants of the thousands of worlds out there join our Ancient race. For those races to fight alongside us is nothing but a humiliation for us!"

"Insolent! You dare to question our Lord's orders?"

"I-I'm sorry…!"

The facial expressions of these Ancient race tribesmen were all malicious and dark. As they made their way through the forest, they did not bump into any beasts. It was as though all the beasts were purposefully hiding away on sensing the scent of their aura.

Lin Fan entered Stealth mode and hid inconspicuously at a side while checking out the six of them calmly.

An earth celestial middle level.

Two earth celestial lower levels.

Three utmost celestial full cultivations.

This seemed like a strong combo.

Furthermore, each of those wolf-like beasts was an utmost celestial middle-level being. That was pretty fearsome in itself.

But, so what? To Lin Fan, these guys were nothing at all. He couldn't even give a hoot about them. He could squish bugs like that to death almost by the second.

But of course, every single action he took required careful planning and a GRAND execution. Since these six had appeared here to court death, he couldn't possibly grant them an easy one.

He had to think up of a good way to give them a good whooping. That way, they would finally know what true horror meant.

As for the words of advice that Zhang Xu had given him, Lin Fan did pay heed towards them. However, how could one bow down in life? Since these fellas had turned up at his doorsteps, there was no way he could just let them off without slaying them!

To Lin Fan, they were nothing but experience points!

Lin Fan checked out his surroundings. After he took down these guys, it should be about time to leave this area. Since these six could track him down here, it meant that his rough location should have already been revealed out to them.

Hence, this place was not safe for much longer. It was time to make a quick escape after he was done with them.

'Oho! I've got it…Hehe…!' Lin Fan's eyes glimmered, as he thought of his perfect trick. This was a treasure trove right in front of him! If he didn't make a good reaping of bounties before he left, he would thoroughly be letting himself down!

...

"Where has this goddamned human run off to? These are a bunch of useless b*stard pets. To think that they couldn't even track him down after so long!" The Ancient race tribesman hollered as he gave the wolf-like beast a kick.

Even though the beast howled in pain due to the kick, it did not dare to resist in any manner.

This type of beasts were the most sensitive to auras in this world. They could pick up the scent of their prey even from a hundred miles away. Therefore, they were the pets of choice for the Ancient race tribesmen to use for tracking down the ants of the thousands of worlds out there.

However, they had been running circles around this place, yet they had yet to pick up any signs of the human at all.

'Growl…!'

Suddenly, the beasts started growling all at the same time and rushed off towards the same direction ahead.

Seeing this, all six tribesmen leaped with joy in their hearts as they chased after immediately.

...

The Ancient race tribesmen came to the location where Lin Fan was gathered earlier with Zhang Xu and Hai Lan.

"Seems like it has been some time since the bonfire has been extinguished. He should have been here earlier on." The leader of the tribesmen remarked.

'Growl…'

Suddenly, the beasts started growling once more. However, this time around, they weren't darting forth. Instead, they seemed like they wanted to escape.

"B*stards pets! What are you sh*ts doing?" Looking at the cowardly manner of these beasts, the Ancient race tribesmen were enraged, and lashed out at them using the whips in their hands.

However, no matter how hard these tribesmen lashed out, it couldn't stop the actions of the beasts. It was as though something was terrifying these beasts so badly that they wanted to get out of this place immediately.

...

"Decanus, take a look! What's over there?" One of the tribesmen suddenly pointed out at something. His face was pale, as he could not make out what was happening.

All he could see was a huge cloud of mist floating over towards them from the forest ahead. The mist seemed to have covered the entire forest.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a loud explosion rang out, as the entire ground started trembling. A gigantic tree toppled over, as though it was destroyed by the massive force of some wild beast.

"What the f*ck is going on?" The Ancient race tribesmen's faces were filled with caution as they eyed everything suspiciously.

'GROWL…!'

A series of wild howls from beasts rang through the skies.

"It's the Ancient beasts." The faces of these Ancient race tribesmen changed. By the sounds of it, could it be that all the Ancient beasts were approaching at the same time?

"Impertinent! We're tribesmen of the Ancient race! All of you b*stard beasts, are you seeking death?" The Ancient race tribesmen had an innate aura that would cause the beasts to fear them. That was the reason why they could act so overbearingly in the presence of all these wild beasts.

But now that there seemed to be beasts approaching them, how could they not be furious over this fact?

The six wolf-like beasts broke out of their shackles and leaped away hurriedly. Disregarding these Ancient race tribesmen entirely, they escaped into the forest and vanished without a trace.

BOOM!

Just then, a towering colossal figure appeared from the skies, landing before these Ancient race tribesmen.

"T-this…!" One of the six Ancient race tribesmen stuttered out in disbelief at this scene. He could not believe or understand what was going on with these beasts.

'Huff…HUFF…!'

One by one, wild beasts were surrounding these six Ancient race tribesmen. Every single last one of these beasts were heaving out heavy breaths, with steaming puffs of smoke coming out of their noses.

"B*STARD BEASTS! GET LOST…!" The leader of these Ancient race tribesmen stood out as he carried forth a look of wrath on his malevolent face.

But, it was as though that single holler had no effect on these beasts. The eyes of these beasts were burning red, as though they were in a confused daze.

'GRAWLLL…!!!'

A series of mad growls rang out from their throats as they leaped out on these Ancient race tribesmen.

"BRAZEN…!" Their faces changing, the six Ancient race tribesmen sent out punches.

...

Far in the distance…

Lin Fan was wearing a cloth over his face, and wielding a gigantic fan in his arm, fanning with all his might.

At the same time, his three-headed and six-armed Faceless Sky Demon was floating in the skies before him. Holding onto a bunch of Biggras, the Faceless Sky Demon was tossing them outwards one after another. As these Biggras exploded, they turned into mist.

Each time Lin Fan fanned, a mighty gust picked up, causing this mist to be blown in the direction forward.

'I'LL FAN…!'

'AND I'LL FAN, AND I'LL FAN…!'

...

Lin Fan did not know of the actual impact his current actions would create. But he couldn't be bothered.

No matter what, he had to give it a shot.

Now that it was so difficult to find these beasts, nothing else mattered. Lin Fan refused to believe that his Biggra couldn't cause these beasts to appear.

"TOSS FASTER!" Lin Fan ordered his Faceless Sky Demon.

Right now, the six arms of the Faceless Sky Demon were like crazy windmills, spiraling intensely. One by one, these Biggras were tossed up into the air as though they were free of charge. As they exploded, the thick, dense mist was blown towards the forest intensely.

"AHAHAHAHA…! LET THE STORM BREW EVER STRONGER! FAN WITH ALL MY MIGHT…!"



Chapter 456: An Extremely Tragic and Brutal Crime Scene

"DAMN IT! All of you damned beasts deserve to die!" The leader of the six Ancient race tribesmen smashed the head of a beast into smithereens with a single punch, sending blood spraying all over the skies.

"Decanus, what's up with these beasts? How are they so daring to attack us?!" Another Ancient race tribesman asked with fright.

If not for the fact that the Ancient race tribesmen were born with innately powerful bodies, they might have already fallen after being surrounded by these many beasts!

However, it was soon to be quite the tragedy for those three Ancient race tribesmen who were at the utmost celestial full cultivation state only.

"I've got no idea. Just kill our way out of this…!" The leader of the Ancient race tribesmen broke into a cold sweat. Waving out his hand, the entire void rippled. However, this did not repel off the beasts in the least bit.

And by the looks of it, all of these beasts looked absolutely frenzied.

...

"DECANUS, SAVE ME…!" Suddenly, an Ancient race tribesman called out tragically. He was being held down by a beast. Immediately, the beast pounced on the back of this Ancient race tribesman and engaged in some forceful grinding.

"ARGHHHH…!!! SAVE MEEEEEE…!" The tragic cries continued relentlessly. In fact, the Ancient race tribesman was not only held down by that single beast. He was surrounded by a couple of other beasts, as though they were waiting for their turns!

"BRAZEN…!" The decanus of the Ancient race tribesmen felt his heart jerk at this scene, and he struck out with immense force. By the looks of it, all of these beasts had gone entirely bonkers!

"DECANUS, SAVE ME PLEASE…!!!" Yet another member of the three weakest Ancient race tribesmen was caught by a beast. This time around, it seemed like it was a male beast!

And of course, the result of this was even more tragic than the other Ancient race tribesman from before. In fact, there were no words that could describe the extent of cruelty. Once this scene was etched into one's mind, one could never erase it for the rest of their lives.

An anus being torn wide apart, leaving nothing but traces of the debris of war.

...

Far in the distance, Lin Fan was still hard at work, fanning diligently. To Lin Fan, this was all an experiment. If this could really work out, then he would have a new killer technique to employ in the future!

"Hurry up and toss them out faster! Toss out ALL of the pills!" Holding on to his gigantic fan, Lin Fan swung with all his might. This was like a category ten hurricane. In fact, the ground was about to be ripped apart by it.

Lin Fan did not know how things were going on ahead. But now that everything had gone silent, he was a little speechless. Could he have failed?

That should not be the case though!

Obeying Lin Fan's words, the three-headed and six-armed Faceless Sky Demon tossed out all the Biggras in one go.

POP! POP!

One by one, the Biggras burst out into small explosions. Taking in a deep breath, Lin Fan summoned a gigantic gust of typhoon and brought all the mist into the distant forest ahead.

'Whew…!'

Finally, Lin Fan stopped the movement of his arms. His arm was starting to feel sore now after that intense exercise.

Looking ahead, Lin Fan's heart was filled with bewilderment and exasperation.

'Brothers, make some noise! Just a little bit will do! At least give me some motivation to carry on!' Looking at the silent forest, Lin Fan was feeling extremely helpless right now.

He looked over at his Faceless Sky Demon and sighed gently, evidently disappointed. The Faceless Sky Demon looked back at Lin Fan blankly, wondering what that entire ritual earlier on was for.

'GRAWRRRRR…!'

'ARGHHH…!!!'

Just then, a tragic wail rang out from that dense forest ahead.

"Holy sh*t…! What's happening? That cry sounded so tragic!" Just as he was about to accept failure, Lin Fan was startled by the sound.

He then leaped up and burst forth towards the forest.

"YES! It worked…! Yours Truly is a genius indeed! That's one small step for Lin Fan, a giant leap for mankind!" Lin Fan's only thoughts were to enjoy the show right now. This was definitely going to be spectacular!

...

"AHHH…!!! DECANUS…! SAVE ME! THESE BEASTS ARE HUMILIATING ME…!!!" The two utmost celestial Ancient race tribesmen who were captured were wailing out from the bottom of their hearts.

The only feeling they had right now was the stinging pain in their anus.

Looking at the scene unfolding before him, that hideous looking decanus of the Ancient race was incensed.

"YOU BUNCH OF…!" However, just as the decanus of the Ancient race tribesmen was about to lash out with insults, a nimble little Ancient beast darted into a shadow and leaped right in the face of the decanus.

Using its nimble long claws to grasp the head of the ugly decanus, its body started humping that hideous face repeatedly.

"FUCKER…!" The decanus immediately grabbed the nimble beast in his hands. With a single pinch, he decimated the beast instantly. It was a horrifying sight as the meat and blood splattered all over.

'Huff…huff…' Watching the entire scene, the decanus was filled with nothing but a fiery rage in his heart. What the hell was going on with these beasts? Why did they all seem to be going insane?!

Looking at the way his underlings were being treated, he was even more furious about everything.

"THE ANCIENT RACE IS THE NOBLEST OF ALL RACES! HOW DARE YOU F*CKING BEASTS DO SUCH A DARNED THING? YOU'RE SIMPLY…!" But of course, these beasts did not give the decanus the chance to complete his sentence. Just as he was howling madly, they leaped over towards him again.

To these Ancient beasts, these ugly Ancient race tribesmen were the most beautiful creatures in this world right now.

"ARGH…YOU SHITS…!"

"LET GO OF ME…!!!"

"ARGH…!!!"

BAM! BAM!

Tragic wails.

Fearsome howls.

Cries of excitement.

All of these different sounds formed a perfect harmonic, which permeated through the skies.

Lin Fan leaped above from the forest. What happened to that utterly violent voice from before?

But when Lin Fan arrived at his destination, he was greeted by nothing but utter shock.

Every single thing he had known in his 21 years of life had been utterly destroyed in this one single moment.

The ground itself was trembling in fear under the massive happenings above it. The beasts were all huddled up together in small groups! As for those beasts that couldn't squeeze in, they were busy poking the ground!

By the time Lin Fan's gaze turned to those Ancient race tribesmen, he could not help but take in a long, cold breath of cold air.

"This is…cruelty beyond the Heavens. This sight is just…"

"Oh, you beasts…you degenerates… Just what sort of a b*stard could commit such a sinful act that could shake the very foundations of morality itself…?' Lin Fan muttered in exasperation.

"Biggra, oh Biggra... To think that you're so ruthless! This is indeed a disruption of the world's harmony…a disruption indeed…!" Lin Fan had not expected things to turn into this wild orgy mess.

If one did not have a firm heart as he did, they would have long been puking non-stop at the sight of this scene before them.

'One…two…!'

'Other than those that were killed, there should be 20 beasts here! Not bad, not bad. It's just a pity that there are only two Ancient race tribesmen left. Seems like the other four died a death that couldn't have been any worse earlier on. But no worries! Let Yours Truly release you guys from this nightmare!'

Lin Fan took out his Eternal Axe. Entering Stealth mode, he burst out forward.

'I'LL CHOP…!'

'I'LL SLICE…!'

'I'LL SLAY…!'

'Ding…Congratulations on killing earth celestial lower level beast.'

'Ding…Experience points +500.'

'Ding…Congratulations on killing utmost celestial upper-level beast.'

'Ding…Experience points +50.'

...

These beasts, who were consumed entirely by Biggra, had already long lost their sanity and sense of wariness. Right now, there was only a single thought in their minds: They wanted to release that pent up happiness within their bodies.

By the time Lin Fan chopped down the final beast, his experience points had increased by 2,500.

'Not bad. Seems like this small little wave of beasts brought me a decent amount of experience points. As long as I continue working diligently in this manner, leveling up is just a matter of time.'

'Absorb!'

Flicking his robes, Lin Fan sucked in all of the Demonic Qi within his Demon City.

He then came forth to the last two remaining Ancient race tribesmen. Looking at the both of them, he shook his head helplessly.

"You are…!" The decanus raised his head to look at who it was. His face was filled with rage.

'Urgh…!'

Lin Fan slammed down his Eternal Axe cleanly.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Earth celestial middle-level tribesman decanus.'

'Ding…Experience points +2,000.'

...

"Y-you're the human…! I am a warrior of the Ancient race…! I'm not afraid of death…!" The last remaining Ancient race tribesman glared at Lin Fan feebly while seething out diabolically.

'Urgh…!'

"Oops, sorry! Whether or not you're afraid of dying, you've still got to die!"

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Earth celestial lower level Ancient race soldier.'

'Ding…Experience points +500.'

...

Lin Fan swept his robes.

Looking at the world around him, he could not help but shake his head melancholically.

'Hais, what a tragic sight of the world…! Look at how the harmony of Heavens and Earth has been destroyed…'



Chapter 457: The Weird, Creepy Uncle and the Little Kid

"B*stard…!"

Looking at the light screen from the base of the Ancient race, the Ancient race tribesman was enraged by the scene that was being displayed.

That damned human! How dare he humiliate their fellow tribesmen? He totally deserved death!

The sight of those Ancient beasts and their frenzied motions on top of their own tribesmen were especially infuriating.

With a maddened palm strike, he slapped down on the table, breaking it apart, "Soldiers! Hunt down that human!"

"Yes!"

The hideous face of this Ancient race leader was ever more sinister as he glared at the screen with intense hatred. He waved his hand.

"Whoever kills this man shall earn the position of a decanus!"

This was a reward, and at the same time, served as an incentive for everyone out there from the thousands of worlds to fight for. This was an opportunity many of them would try to snatch for the sake of survival.

...

'Just how big is this Ancient forest? How am I still not out of this place?' Lin Fan had managed to obtain a map from scavenging the body of that decanus he had slain. He then took a good look at it.

Based on his current location, he should be at the edge of the boundaries of this world. This was a desolate place that was devoid of humans. But to Lin Fan, this place was practically a sanctuary.

After all, the most dangerous beings in the Ancient Saint World would most likely not reside here. They would probably be gathered at the center of the Ancient Saint World.

Tearing through the void and traveling through it was out of the question for the current Lin Fan. He was bound by restrictions.

Due to the firm, resolute strength of the energy between the Heaven and Earth of the Ancient Saint World, Lin Fan could not produce those past feats with his current strength. He could not help but admit that this was quite a tragic thing.

'Seems like the only thing left to do is to appreciate the sceneries of the Ancient Saint World slowly bit by bit. Well, I wonder how the forces and factions of the Ancient Saint World are divided up.' Lin Fan was attacking wildly along the way. At the same time, he was pretty lost, not knowing where the roads were heading to.

A few days later…

When Lin Fan saw an entire valley of mountains ahead of him, he was completely stumped. Right after he had bashed through an entire forest, he was faced with mountains?! Where were the flatlands?!

Lin Fan gritted his teeth, 'Damn it, you vicious world! Yours Truly shall trawl through the mountains and continue pushing forth!'

PSHEW! PSHEW!

Suddenly, Lin Fan's eyes squinted, as a shadow had just darted by him!

"How dare you sneak an attack on Yours Truly! Asking for it!" Lin Fan slammed out with a punch.

However, when he caught sight of the figure, Lin Fan's face was stunned. He halted his strength immediately. Twisting his wrist, he changed the direction of his punch as the void nearby shook with the force of his redirected punch.

Suddenly, a cry rang out beside him.

'URGH…!' That figure was a small little kid. Wielding a purple dagger in his/her hands, that kid stabbed at Lin Fan's chest.

Clang!

That sharp clash of metal rang out. The moment the kid's purple dagger touched Lin Fan's chest, it came to a stop.

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +0.'

"H-how could this be?! I-impossible…!" That kid, whose face was filled with dirt, exclaimed out in disbelief.

"Hey, brat. Nothing's impossible." Looking at the kid, Lin Fan grinned. He then lifted up the kid with a single hand.

"LET ME GO…!" Being lifted into the air, that little kid attempted to kick at Lin Fan with his/her short little legs. However, his/her legs were so short that they couldn't even come close to Lin Fan.

"HURGH…!" Looking at how he/she couldn't get to kick at Lin Fan, the little kid chomped down hard on Lin Fan's wrist. However, that bite caused his/her entire face to flush red. He/she felt as though those pearly whites of his/hers were going to shatter at any moment.

'Lesser celestial lower level.'

Lin Fan could tell the strength of this kid in an instant. At the same time, this was curious. To think that a kid like this could have a cultivation state of a lesser celestial at his age here in the Ancient Saint World. That was pretty astonishing!

If this were the Xuanhuang World, this kid would be the genius amongst all geniuses!

But, Lin Fan knew that the Ancient Saint World had special properties. Even if one were to not cultivate at all, the Saint Spirit Qi of the world would slowly infuse within their bodies, raising their power level slowly but surely.

And of course, if this were the Xuanhuang World, this kid would still be quite a somebody. However, in the Ancient Saint World, he/she was nothing but cannon fodder.

"Oh no, no, no! Kiddo! Don't be afraid! I'm a good person here! I'll definitely not do anything weird to you!" With the face of a creepy old uncle, Lin Fan stared at this little kid that was dangling from his arm.

At the same time, he could not help but sigh in his heart. This kid did look pretty decent. Even though the kid's face was filled with dust, his/her features were really exquisite indeed.

"Eh…there's a tail." Lin Fan was startled when he noticed a furry little tail coming out from the back of the kid.

"Kiddo, you're from the Fox World?" Lin Fan chuckled.

"You horrid fellow! Let go of me!" The little kid's face was flushed red as he/she tried to struggle out of Lin Fan's grasp. But to Lin Fan, this kid was even weaker than a little chicken. He wondered how a kid like this could survive in such a desolate area.

"Oho, no can do. You've got to answer my question first." Lin Fan continued chuckling.

"Yes." Eventually, the kid stopped and stared at Lin Fan while gritting his/her teeth. 'C-can't you see my tail? You stupid idiot!"

"Oho! What a brazen little kid you are! Seems like Yours Truly would have to instill some manners into you today!" Looking at how daring this little kid was, Lin Fan could not help remarking at that moment. This kid didn't even know how dangerous the circumstances he/she was in right now!

Lin Fan loosened his grip and turned the kid around. He then dangled the kid in midair once more, this time round with his/her tail.

"Let go of me, you baddy!" The kid was totally flushed red right now. Hugging on to Lin Fan's thighs, he/she chomped down again. But no matter how hard he/she chomped, Lin Fan felt nothing at all.

"Little kid, where are you from?" Lin Fan knew that there must be others around for this kid to be here. But he didn't know where this kid originated from.

"What?" The kid's face was confused before he/she continued struggling, "Let me go! Otherwise, I'll make sure you can't even walk up straight after I'm done with you!"

Looking at the bewildered face of the kid, Lin Fan could feel some curiosity brimming within him.

"Where are your parents?" He asked.

"Don't have…"

"Any other adults?"

"Don't know…"

...

Lin Fan was a little exasperated. No matter what he asked, the kid wouldn't respond. Seemed like this kid was trying to guard against him.

Suddenly, the struggling kid noticed that the other party had released him/her. He/she gave off a really confused face.

"Little kiddo, the outside world is dangerous here. You mustn't run out alone like this next time, alright? Go on home! Don't let your family members worry about you!" Lin Fan's expression changed into one of benevolence.

"Don't think I'm a kid! You just want to follow me, right?" The little kid raised his/her head and glared at Lin Fan suspiciously.

"Err…!" Lin Fan was startled. To think that he was found out! Seemed like this kid had got some little brains!

"How could that be? Do I seem like that sort of a person? Okay, how about this? Let's play a little game! I'll close my eyes, and you'll run off to hide! Sounds good?" Lin Fan beamed.

Looking at Lin Fan, the kid nodded his/her head slowly, "Alright…"

...

Looking at Lin Fan closing his eyes for real, the kid heaved a sigh of relief and burst off into the woods.

Lin Fan grinned.

"Wanting to play hide and seek with Yours Truly with just that bit of smarts? Sigh, it's truly lonely when you're the strongest…"

Time passed by the second…

The kid remained hidden in the dense woods. Seeing as how nobody has caught up to him/her, he/she let off a sigh of relief. But for safety precautions, he/she should just wait a little longer.

But in actual fact, Lin Fan was squatted right in front of this kiddo, looking at him/her intently.

Lin Fan had long entered Stealth mode. But of course, it would be impossible for that kid to notice Lin Fan squatting before him/her.

The kid looked ahead. After ascertaining his/her safety, he/she grinned and ran off.



Chapter 458: Seems Like The Human Race Is Pretty Famous After All

Looking at the little kid prancing away from the forest, Lin Fan could not help but grin. By the looks of it, this kid seemed pretty familiar with this place. He wondered where the kid would lead up to.

Before long, Lin Fan stopped in his tracks upon catching sight of the scenery before him. To think that a village would exist within these mountainous regions as well.

At the same time, there seemed to be some mysterious, invisible membrane surrounding the village, preventing any aura from being emanated out of it, thus avoiding detection.

This must probably be a safety measure set up by them.

At the entrance of the village stood an elderly man. He surveyed his surroundings anxiously with a look of worry. It was as though he was waiting for something.

"Grandpa…!" Just then, the kid who Lin Fan had been trailing leaped out of the woods towards the direction of the elderly man.

'What's up with this situation?' Lin Fan looked at the wings behind the elderly man. This was evidently a being of the Wings race. How could he be the Grandpa of his kid from the Fox race?

"Xuan Er! Where had you gone to? How could you run about like that?" The elderly winged man's face was solemn. However, knowing that his granddaughter was safe and sound, he couldn't help but heave out in relief.

"Grandpa, don't be mad, alright? Xuan Er knows her mistakes!" Xuan Er nodded her head.

As though she suddenly recalled something, she continued, "That's right, Grandpa! I bumped into someone outside!"

"Hmm?" The elderly winged man's face changed for a moment. "Ancient race being?"

"Nopes! He looked exactly the same as me, just that he didn't have a tail! He asked me where the adults were, but I didn't tell him anything!" Xuan Er giggled happily.

"Did he follow you back?" The face of the elderly winged man grew stern once more. He had a bad feeling about this. This was a really isolated part of the world. How would anyone appear in the vicinity?

"Nopes! That guy was really stupid! So silly, hehe…!" Xuan Er continued her giggles as she grinned with pride towards her intellect.

Lin Fan, who was in Stealth mode and standing behind her all the while, was helpless right now. To think that this little thingy would call him silly! That was unbearable, gosh!

"Little one there, it's not right to talk bad about others behind their backs, you know?" A voice suddenly rang out.

Xuan Er froze up on the spot. At the same time, the elderly winged man hurriedly pulled Xuan Er behind his back and called out warily, "Who's there!"

"Everyone, please be at ease. I mean no harm." Lin Fan appeared before the both of them.

"I-I obviously hid away from you! How could you have…?" Xuan Er was filled with disbelief right now. She had obviously left this guy behind! How could he have followed her back?

"Heh, little one there. You're too naive, aren't you?" Lin Fan chuckled. He then cusped his fists towards the elderly winged man, "I am Lin Fan, a member of the human race from Xuanhuang World. I have just ascended into the Ancient Saint World recently."

Looking at the suspicious look on the elderly winged man's face, Lin Fan felt that it was better for him to announce his identity to put the man at ease.

At the same time, Lin Fan could not help but wonder just how treacherous the entire Ancient Saint World was for everyone to be consistently on their guard as such.

And indeed, the moment Lin Fan reported his identity, that grim face of the elderly winged man gradually eased. However, he was still slightly guarded against Lin Fan.

"Human race?" The elderly winged man seemed to be slowly reminiscing about something.

Suddenly, his face changed, "Please enter…!"

"Huh…?" Lin Fan was stunned. He did not understand what was going on right now.

"Grandpa, he bullied me just now!" Looking at how her grandpa was being friendly with this stranger, Xuan Er complained grudgingly.

"Xuan Er, do not be rude…" The elderly winged man patted Xuan Er on her head gently.

"Little one, I did not bully you, hoho." Lin Fan chuckled at the little kid.

Xuan Er tossed Lin Fan a glance and huffed out loudly before running into the village.

"This kid…" The elderly winged man shook his head exasperatedly.

...

Lin Fan then followed the elderly winged man into the village. The village wasn't too big. However, seeing the stranger Lin Fan, everyone's eyes were filled with surprise.

At the same time, Lin Fan was curious about these people as well.

There were all sorts of beings from different worlds here. What sort of a place is this?

Lin Fan then followed the elderly winged man into a simple looking house.

It was here that Lin Fan found out that the elderly winged man was the village chief. At the same time, this village had existed for a long time without any outsiders discovering its existence.

Within the house, Lin Fan accepted the tea that was served by the village chief as he nodded his head gently, "Village chief, just what sort of a place is this?"

The village chief looked at Lin Fan and sighed. "This is a place that was created just to avoid the strife of this world."

"Village chief, I noticed that you had relaxed immediately the moment you heard that I was of the human race. Could it be that you guys have some sort of connections to our race?" Lin Fan's aim right now was to look for more humans. Looking at how receptive this village chief was towards the humans, it seemed as though he had some sort of relationship with their race.

"No. In fact, you're the first human I've met in my life." The village chief shook his head.

"Then why is it that…?" Lin Fan asked in bewilderment.

"Tens of thousands of years ago, all the races from the various worlds were living in immense danger and threat under the powerful Ancient race. Back then, no one from any race would dare to even step out with any form of resentment or resistance against the Ancient race. Eventually, five great beings from the human race stood forth and engaged one of the eight utmost beings of the Ancient race in a duel to the death…" The village chief started.

Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat. To think that the Heavenly Emperor Yuan and the others would be so famous here! Seemed like their feats had allowed the human race to hold a respectable position in the hearts of these people!

At the same time, Lin Fan finally understood why this village had people of all sorts of races. All of them were here to avoid the massacre of the Ancient race, as well as those traitors who had betrayed their own races and now served the Ancient race.

Even though Lin Fan wanted to dig out more information, the village chief had never ever left this place. Hence, he could provide nothing more than that.

Now that Lin Fan considered properly, it was easy to hide himself while living in these mountainous areas. At the same time, this place was surrounded by beasts as well.

Seemed like it would be a decent place for him to grind some experience points.

As long as he could get his power level up, anything else would cease to be an issue.

Respect.

Freedom.

These were things that were based on one's power level.

Without power, everything else would just be a dream.

"Village chief, I'd like to reside here for a little while. Once the time is ripe, I'll make my way out." Lin Fan requested after thinking for a little while.

"What? You still wanna head out? It's really safe here while the world out there is extremely horrifying! I hope you'd be able to live the rest of your life here without having to experience the terrors of the outside world!" The village chief remarked in astonishment.

"I do not fear the horrors. I bring with me the hope of the entire human race upon my ascension here. My purpose here is to open up a new path of hope for my entire race." Lin Fan replied with absolute resolution in his eyes.

The village chief looked at Lin Fan before nodding his head in agreement.

"Thank you." Lin Fan expressed his gratitude.



Chapter 459: A Little Girl's Shock

With that, Lin Fan began on his short stint at the village. At the same time, there was one thing that left Lin Fan pretty exasperated. To think that that small little kid would be a girl! No matter how he looked at it, she didn't seem like one. And she acted like a boy all the time as well.

Xuan Er did not have any parents. She was discovered by the village chief around the mountainous areas. By the time the village chief found her, her parents had already been killed by a mighty beast.

In those mountainous valleys…

"You little sh*t, use more strength…!" A gigantic beast seemed like it was about to break down in front of Lin Fan.

This beast was having an easy and relaxed life initially. However, after meeting Lin Fan, it was as though his life had turned into a complete tragedy.

The beast had thought that he would be able to devour the person before him in a single mouth. To its dismay, it realized that this fella was tougher than a rock! He couldn't even bite down at all!

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +100.'

"Bloody hell! You're really too much of a trash!" Lin Fan was completely frustrated right now. He had thought that this earth celestial middle-level beast would give him quite a good workout. To think that he was only fearsome to look at but totally useless!

The experience points of Eternal Immortality increased by a pitiful 100 points each time. Based on this pathetic rate, how long would it take for him to level up!

'OWWWW!!! OWW…!!!' The beast no longer wanted to play with this fella anymore. At the same time, it cried out as though it was begging for mercy and seeking settlement for this issue.

'Can you please let me go if I don't eat you up?'

"Stop your bloody cries! If you don't stop biting me, Yours Truly is going to mutilate you into pieces!" Lin Fan gave the beast's gigantic head a tight slap as he warned it fiercely.

The brutish looking eyes of the beast were filled with sorrow right now.

He was an Ancient beast! How could he be in such a tragic state right now?

Creak…!

The beast clamped down its massive mouth. That tasty looking delicious hand was stretched into his mouth. However, it was tougher than anything else. The beast was chomping so hard that even his sharp teeth were starting to crack.

'Ding…Eternal Immortality experience points +50.'

"Holy sh*t…!" Seeing the drop in experience points, Lin Fan was stunned. Not only was this beast not being diligent, it was actually slacking off?!

'OWWW!!! OWWW!!!' The beast looked at Lin Fan pitifully. It truly wanted to leave. It had been at this for half a day now.

It could even feel its mouth getting numb and losing all the strength in its jaws now.

'Hais, trash…! You're simply too trash! What use do I have for keeping you alive? I'LL CHOP…!' With that, Lin Fan shook his head helplessly as he slammed his axe down.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing earth celestial middle-level beast.'

'Ding…Experience points +2,000.'

...

'Absorb.'

Once Lin Fan collected everything he could collect, he sighed helplessly.

The value of this earth celestial middle-level beast had been wiped clean by him entirely.

When he had first discovered this beast, he engaged it in a fearsome battle. Even though this beast was high in cultivation state than him, Lin Fan was the most experienced in fighting against things beyond his level.

Lin Fan kept the corpse of this beast within his storage.

To these villagers, their livelihoods came from these beasts.

Even though the cultivation states of everyone within the village wasn't too high, they could easily kill a low leveled beast with their combined strength.

"I've got to continue searching. I'm just this much closer to getting stronger! After all, I can't stay here for too long. Hence, if I want to get stronger, I've got to look for way tougher opponents." Lin Fan thought in his heart. He then disappeared between the mountainous valleys, searching for higher leveled beasts.

But at the end of the day, this location was near the boundaries of this world. The high leveled beasts would probably not take an eye to this area.

After chopping for half a day, Lin Fan had only obtained 3,500 experience points. But on the other hand, he had obtained quite a fair number of corpses.

Now that night was starting to dim, Lin Fan was prepared to head back.

Within the village…

Xuan Er was feeling pretty unhappy recently. To think that Grandpa would allow this fella to reside within the village. At the same time, this fella was really uncooperative with the other uncles and aunties, and refused to work together with them. He was just a bloody leech!

They hadn't even seen him around for the entire day.

This damned fella! Grandpa must have been bewitched by him! But no worries, Xuan Er wouldn't fall for his lies and deception!

"Everyone, head out and get your share!" Just then, a voice rang into Xuan Er's ears.

"It's that fella!" Xuan Er ran over immediately. She had to see just what this fella was up to.

...

Lin Fan was standing at the village entrance and shouting out right now.

Everyone in this village had low cultivation states. Hence, it was difficult for them to kill the beasts alone or regularly. Hence, most of them just planted fruits and vegetables in the village.

Ever since Lin Fan arrived, the village chief had been really polite to him. However, he hadn't interacted much with any of the other villagers.

This was because in their eyes, Lin Fan was still pretty much an outsider. These people who had been through terrible times and torments were naturally wary of outsiders.

Xuan Er stood at a corner, pouting and looking at Lin Fan casually with one foot resting on the other. She then ran over and asked him in an unfriendly tone, "You skiving fella! Where have you gone for the entire day? This is not a place where lazy bums should come! Everyone here is working hard daily. We don't have extra food to feed someone like you!'

"Xuan Er, do not be rude." Just then, the elderly winged village chief walked over briskly.

"Grandpa, why are you always on his side? Look at him, he had disappeared for the entire day!" Xuan Er's face was flushed right now as she stamped her feet in a huff.

Looking at this little young brat, Lin Fan shook his head helplessly. He had only teased her a little. To think that she would bear a grudge till this day.

At the same time, Lin Fan was bewildered. All the villagers were standing near the entrance just staring curiously. None of them would dare to approach Lin Fan, as though he would eat them up.

"Village chief, I have toured around the vicinity today and slain some beasts. I'm here to share them with the villagers." Lin Fan smiled.

"Hmph! 'Slain some beasts'... RIGHTTTTTTTTT. Just you? More like some small little animals, right?" Xuan Er refused to believe Lin Fan.

"Xuan Er…!"

"I know, Grandpa! Fine, I won't talk anymore!" She tossed her head and stood aside. However, her sparkly bright eyes were still filled with distrust.

"Little Fan, please don't put it to heart. Xuan Er didn't mean it." The village chief said apologetically.

Lin Fan waved his hand dismissively, "It's alright. I won't bear grudges against a kid."

"Hmph…!!!" Upon hearing Lin Fan's remark that she was a kid, Xuan Er pouted her lips and snorted even louder. However, looking at how her Grandpa was about to get angry once more, she lowered her head and stood there quietly.

Looking at this little brat, Lin Fan could not hold in his helpless chuckle. Patting his storage, the corpses appeared out one by one.

'THIS…!!!'

Looking at the densely laid out corpses of these beasts, the village chief was absolutely astounded. Those villagers were equally dumbfounded, unable to believe the sight before their eyes.

"T-this is the Spinal Beast! Upon maturity, it can hit even an earth celestial cultivation state!" The village chief remarked on seeing one of the corpses.

"Village chief, please let the villagers split these amongst themselves. Let's take this as my rental for staying here for the time being." Lin Fan chuckled.

Generally, Ancient beasts could be consumed as food. As for these beasts that Lin Fan had slain, not only were they edible, they were really delicious too!

"How…how can we accept this…?" The village chief commented in embarrassment. These were really important for the village!

"It's alright. I'm slaying beasts every day for cultivation purposes anyways. It'd be a waste to dump these corpses away." Lin Fan replied.

"Alright then. Let me express my gratitude on behalf of our villagers then. Guys, hurry and take the corpses to prepare for storage properly!" The village chief ordered to the villagers.

Xuan Er was frozen on the spot once more. Her little peachy mouth was open so wide one could pop an entire egg within it.

Lin Fan looked over at Xuan Er and smiled.

Catching Lin Fan's smile, Xuan Er stomped her feet on the ground and left in a huff.



Chapter 460: I Wont Reject You!

Night time…

Lin Fan sat there cross-legged, immersed within his inner world.

The Mythical Parasol Tree was rooted firmly, deep within his inner world. Flourishing with green leaves, the lifeforce was gushing rapidly and boundlessly.

'Eh…Seems like yet another branch has grown out, and it is still sprouting out leaves. Seems like this Ancient Saint World is just a treasure trove after all. To think that the Mythical Parasol Tree could even take in the Saint Spirit Qi and germinate on its own through that.'

Lin Fan initially had no idea how he should groom this tree. However, after a period of time in the Ancient Saint World, he realized that the Mythical Parasol Tree was starting to grow by itself. And by the looks of it, its rate of growth isn't slow in the least bit! In less than a few days, quite a number of leaves had grown on it already!

By the order of things, this Mythical Parasol Tree was chopped down from the Ancient Saint World and fell into the Xuanhuang World. Now that it was back in the Ancient Saint World, that could be the reason why it was growing once more.

The boundless and limitless lifeforce produced by this was a vital treasure for Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was also hoping for the Mythical Parasol Tree to grow faster as well. Once it finally matured, there would be no place in this world he couldn't go to.

At the same time, he still could not figure out what the Firmament Blood and Heaven and Earth Sutra did. The only thing he could hope for was that it wouldn't be too absurd.

When he received the Eternal Axe, it was already in a damaged state. But, if he were to follow the meaning of the God of War, the shards of the broken Eternal Axe should be somewhere within this Ancient Saint World as well.

If he could retrieve them and piece it all back together, it should be a true legendary weapon at that time.

And based on the hints of the God of War, he should almost definitely hope that he would not bump into any of the eight utmost beings of the Ancient Saint World before the Eternal Axe was repaired. Otherwise, the Eternal Axe would definitely deal no damage to them at all.

But of course, these were issues that were too far off Lin Fan's considerations right now, and he couldn't be too worried about them.

...

Within another house…

Xuan Er lowered her head, standing before her Grandpa. Those bright eyes were filled with grievances.

"Xuan Er, you need to respect him from now on, do you know that? You can't continue being rude the way you are." The elderly winged village chief was telling her patiently.

"Grandpa, why is that?" She lifted up her head.

"That's because he's a human. He is the same race as those heroes." The village chief replied.

"Hero? But Grandpa…you're the true hero in my eyes! If not for the fact that you've been defending this village tirelessly, all of us would have long died!" Xuan Er knew of her birth circumstances, that she was from the Fox race, as well as how her parents had died.

The village chief shook his head and fondled Xuan Er's head, "Grandpa cannot be considered a hero. Tens of thousands of years ago, when the Ancient race was massacring all other races, none of us dared to voice out nor resist at all. It was because of the five fearless human race heroes who stood up against one of the eight utmost beings of the Ancient race that brought about a fearsome war, which darkened the skies and shook the Heavens…"

This was the first time Xuan Er had heard of this story. Hence, her heart was filled with curiosity as well. At the same time, she was filled with respect towards those five fearless heroes.

"Grandpa, what happened after that?" Xuan Er blinked with her long lashes.

"No one knew of the exact circumstances afterward. All we knew was that the utmost being who fought against them never appeared in the Ancient Saint World ever since. But you must remember that without the five fearless human heroes, this piece of world here would have never been released from their control. Without that, this village would have never existed either. After all, no one could live boldly in the open under the watchful eyes of the Ancient race." The village chief replied.

"Therefore, you must remember once more that he is from the same race as those fearless heroes. Even though it's been a long time since any humans have appeared, we must still carry a heart of gratitude. Do you understand? We must not let the humans be disappointed with us." The village chief explained.

Upon hearing her Grandpa's words, Xuan Er nodded his head eventually, "Yes, Xuan Er understands."

If the Supreme Being were still alive and had heard these words, he would have died of shame. It was the truth that they were heroes indeed. However, they had only drawn the Ancient One into the Xuanhuang World for that last bit of hope. While it was the truth that they did defeat the Ancient One eventually, it was also the undeniable truth that they had sealed up Xuanhuang World due to fear of the Ancient Saint World.

In the end, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan was the one who had an unwavering intent to return to the Ancient Saint World and continue their resistance against the Ancient race.

...

Within the house, Lin Fan was hard at work in cultivating pills. Under his extravagant usage, he was almost out of Biggras. Thankfully, he still had tons of herbs left.

Before he ascended to the Ancient Saint World, he had already prepared a lot of medicinal herbs to be used in times of need.

In fact, Lin Fan had swept the entire medicinal herbs storage within the Glory Sect entirely clean.

'Pills Through Thought.'

A flame rose in Lin Fan's palms. Even though the flame did not have any heat of its own, it was said that the inner temperature was something beyond anyone's absolute horrors.

'Biggra is already a miracle pill that I'm so used to right now. However, perhaps I should give it a makeover when I've got the time. After all, the cultivation states in Ancient Saint World are simply way too high. Our old pills may not have the capabilities to catch up with the prowess of the beings here soon.'

These were the thoughts in Lin Fan's mind as he took a look at the Pills Through Thought.

However, nothing had yet to come into his mind, as to how he could complement the effects of Biggra with other medicinal herbs.

Just then, Lin Fan flipped his palm over and extinguished the flame. He could feel the presence of someone approaching.

Knock Knock.

"Please enter." Lin Fan replied casually.

Creak.

Outside the door, the petite little cute Xuan Er stood under the gleam of the moonlight. Her little fox tail was swirling around behind her. Xuan Er's head was lowered with her fingers playing with one another, as though she was really nervous.

"What's wrong?" Lin Fan sympathized with the background of this little brat as well. He wondered how many other kids in the Ancient Saint World suffered the same fate as her.

Upon ascending into the Ancient Saint World, life and death were almost no longer in the control of anyone's hands. After all, no one knew what would happen in this place.

"I…I…" Xuan Er was nervous and embarrassed at the same time. It was as though she was finding it difficult to say the words out of her mouth. However, upon seeing Lin Fan's benevolent smile, she gathered her courage and said boldly.

"SORRY…!"

It was as though she had used up all her strength into saying this single word. At the same time, her entire face was flushed red.

Hearing this word, Lin Fan smiled. Just as he was about to reply her, Xuan Er sprinted off out of the house.

"What a cute little kid!" Looking at the small little figure that was running off, Lin Fan grinned. From the beginning, this little kid hadn't been friendly to him in the least bit. But, Lin Fan had never placed it in his heart at all.

After all, she was just a kid.

As he flicked his robes, that wooden door closed by itself once more.

In the depth of the night, the winged elderly village chief smiled to himself, heartened while witnessing the entire scene.

A few days later…

Lin Fan headed out into the woods daily to hunt down those beasts. As for their corpses, he brought them back to gift to the villagers. The villagers no longer carried the same wariness they had towards him. At the same time, they had a newfound respect towards Lin Fan.

From time to time, Xuan Er would appear before Lin Fan as well, as though she was waiting for something.

This day, as Lin Fan headed back to the village from the woods and handed the corpses over to the villagers, he spotted Xuan Er in the distance once more, as he was ready to head back to cultivate himself.

Xuan Er lowered her head. However, her eyes would dart towards Lin Fan from time to time.

Seeing this, Lin Fan smiled.

Was this little brat trying to make friends with him but was kept from doing so due to the embarrassment of it all? Perhaps, she was trying to catch his attention by appearing near him from time to time.

For the first two days when Xuan Er did so, Lin Fan had no idea what that little kid was trying to do. However, now that he thought back carefully about it, that did seem like a plausible reason indeed.

Xuan Er was lurking around Lin Fan like a little ghost. At the same time, she was a little unhappy in her heart. Had he not noticed her?

"Xuan Er…!" This time, Lin Fan was the one who took the initiative to call out to her.

"Yes…!" Upon hearing someone calling for her, Xuan Er was elated with joy. She then skipped to Lin Fan's face.

"Did you call for me? Are you trying to be friends with me? If you truly want to be friends with me, I guess I wouldn't reject you!" She said with a look of anticipation.

Lin Fan looked at this one-meter tall brat and smiled to himself.

What an interesting and cute kid indeed!



Chapter 461: I Trust Uncle Lin The Most!

"What are you laughing at? Is it because you're feeling extremely happy over my acceptance to be your friend?" Xuan Er looked at Lin Fan with utmost anticipation. Kids had their own sense of pride as well. This was Xuan Er's own way of being bashful.

Lin Fan looked at Xuan Er and eventually relented into a smile while fondling her head, "Yes, that's right. I would very much like to be your friend."

Lin Fan had always had a soft spot for cute little kids. But of course, this had nothing to do with the weird fetishes of creepy uncles. It was just that beautiful things were always something to be admired in the world.

"Hehe…I knew it!" Upon hearing this reply from Lin Fan, Xuan Er beamed out into a wide smile immediately, as her furry tail swirled behind her as well.

"You're my friend from now on then! You can just call me Xuan Er! And don't worry about it! I'll always find you to play, so that you won't feel lonely!" Waving goodbye to Lin Fan, Xuan Er skipped her way off.

Looking at the back view of this kid leaving, Lin Fan could not help but break into a smile.

In this place, there were no emotional attachments for Lin Fan. In fact, it was extremely rare to even find a high leveled beast in the woods these days. It was as difficult as striking the lottery.

Lin Fan had originally had the intentions to leave.

At the same time, it was also because Lin Fan understood that he was now a fugitive wanted by the Ancient race. There was always the underlying threat related to that if he continued residing here.

With the events of Xuan Er right now, Lin Fan was even more certain that he had to leave this place as soon as possible.

This was a peaceful place that he shouldn't overstay at no matter what.

His target had to be always fixed on the Ancient race, and taking them down. That was the only way to bring peace to this world. Even if the Heaven's Will of the Ancient Saint World was on the side of the Ancient race, Lin Fan had the confidence to take down the Heaven's Will of this world eventually as well.

So what if it were high and mighty? The Heaven's Will of Xuanhuang World was high and mighty as well. But it was taken down by Lin Fan all the same.

Within a small little house, Xuan Er laid on her warm bed and flipped left and right. Her cute little face was grinning ear to ear.

'I've got another friend now! I'm so happy…!!!' Xuan Er smiled sweetly to herself.

Next day…

At the break of dawn, Lin Fan woke up from his cultivation state. He packed his stuff and prepared to leave this place. The more peaceful this place was, the more he had to leave. He did not want to see any tragedy befalling this place because of him.

Just as Lin Fan opened his wooden door, he was greeted with a smiley face that was as bright as the sun itself.

"Uncle…!" Xuan Er stood at his doorway addressing him in a lovely tone. Hands behind her back, her tail wagged excitedly from side to side. "Could you take me out to the woods? Xuan Er really, really wants to go out there to see how things are like there! But because the beasts are way too strong, I've always been afraid to do so!"

Looking at Xuan Er before him, Lin Fan sighed helplessly. His face then turned into a smile, "Alright, no problem!"

Lin Fan shrugged his head, thinking in his mind, 'Oh well, forget it. Just this once then. I'll leave tomorrow.'

Looking at that happy face of Xuan Er, Lin Fan's heart melted at that moment. How could he not even accede to such a small request?

"Yay! I knew that uncle is the best…!" Xuan Er hugged Lin Fan's thighs happily, and rubbed her cheeks against Lin Fan's thighs endearingly.

Looking at Xuan Er's happy disposition, Lin Fan could not help but break into a smile. She knew how to please others from such a young age.

But of course, he wasn't that strong to deserve this amount of affection from her yet. Once he grew even stronger, that was when she would have really reaped the benefits of this.

...

As the villagers caught sight of Lin Fan walking by, they beckoned to him with friendliness. Looking at that happy little Xuan Er that was following behind Lin Fan, they broke out into laughter as well.

"Xuan Er, where are you off to now?"

All these friendly villagers teased Xuan Er. After all, they knew that she wasn't too friendly with this human just days earlier. But now, she was constantly behind Lin Fan's back.

Xuan Er looked around at the villagers and stuck out her little tongue. It was as though she was saying, 'Hehe, Xuan Er's not gonna bother with you guys!'

In the mountains…

"Wow! Uncle Lin! You're so awesome!" Lin Fan had placed Xuan Er to sit on a tall tree. From her position, she broke into a loud clap as she saw Uncle Lin slice down a beast with a single chop.

Lin Fan tossed his long hair and smiled naturally, "Xuan Er, keep a low profile. That's just a lowly common beast."

"No! It's not! Everyone could only barely kill a normal beast by cooperating together! But Uncle Lin can do so with such ease! Uncle Lin's the best!" Xuan Er clapped her hands as her eyes sparkled with excitement and pride.

Lin Fan could not have asked for anything more: A cute little audience who enjoyed his performances.

It was especially sweet listening to that tone of awe from Xuan Er.

Lin Fan's ego could not swell any bigger than this.

"Xuan Er, low profile…low profile. These are really just normal beasts and are not worth mentioning. Back in the days, I could take down an entire nest of Ancient beasts with just a single swing of my axe!" When Lin Fan started his bullsh*t, no one else could compare to him. Xuan Er was also taking in the bullsh*t like it was free.

To Xuan Er, there was no one more trustworthy than Lin Fan. Therefore, she just clapped her hands and exclaimed happily.

"Uncle Lin! That's too great!"

"Xuan Er, do you believe Uncle Lin?" Lin Fan smiled to Xuan Er.

"Of course! I trust Uncle Lin the most!" As though she was wound up by a spring, her head bobbed up and down repeatedly as she nodded fervently.

"Good! Come, I'll show you something more spectacular!" Lin Fan suddenly thought of a new way to attract beasts.

"Something more spectacular?" She asked curiously.

Lin Fan beckoned with his hand as Xuan Er leaped down from her tree happily

...

Lin Fan started explaining the circumstances to Xuan Er. To Lin Fan, this was the first time he was going to experiment with this. He had thought that Xuan Er would be afraid and chicken out of this.

But of course, whether or not she chickened out did not matter. Lin Fan just wanted to show Xuan Er something more exciting, that was all.

But who knew that she would agree to it in a heartbeat. That did kind of surprise Lin Fan.

"Uncle Lin, I trust you the most! You're a hero! I know that you'll protect me!" Xuan Er looked at Lin Fan with her cutesy eyes as she remarked with seriousness.

Lin Fan looked back at Xuan Er and nodded his head eventually, "Alright. Good. I'll definitely protect you properly. I swear…"

Smooch!

Xuan Er hugged Lin Fan's head happily and kissed his cheek.

"Yepp! I definitely trust you, Uncle Lin!"

To be kissed by a small little girl from the Fox race did leave Lin Fan feeling a little embarrassed. This girl was just as cute as his little disciples back home!

Now that he had ascended for a period of time, he did really miss them. He wondered how they were doing right now.

"Uncle Lin, hurry up and hide! It's time for Xuan Er to perform!" Looking at Lin Fan who was deep in his thoughts, Xuan Er wrung at Lin Fan's arm.

"Alright…alright." Lin Fan chuckled and entered Stealth mode behind Xuan Er. He did not know whether or not the beasts would take the bait.

"Eh…Uncle Lin! Where did you go?" Looking at Lin Fan who had disappeared suddenly, Xuan Er called out curiously.

"Don't worry. I'm just right beside you." Lin Fan spoke out from his Stealth.

"Okay! Don't worry, Xuan Er isn't afraid…!"

...



Chapter 462: The Final Day Before Departing

A series of cries rang out through the mountainous valleys.

This was no doubt a bait, a delicious piece of meat waiting to be savored by others.

Xuan Er was rubbing her eyes and bawling outright like a little rabbit that had lost her way. This was the moment where a big bad wolf should appear and devour this little delicacy into his tummy whole.

"Eh? Why is nothing happening at all?" Xuan Er rubbed her eyes and peeked out at the surroundings. Everything was silent and quiet, without any movements at all.

Hidden in Stealth mode, Lin Fan was all smiles for this little Xuan Er before him. In terms of acting skills, this kid was pretty darn good! That looked realistic as sh*t!

He wondered how this kid did it. It was as though tears could just drop out of her eyes for free! What an impressive child this was!

Xuan Er raised the pitch of her cries ever louder at this moment. In fact, those cries only signaled helplessness within them.

PSHEW!

Suddenly, a sound rang out from the woods. It was as though something had darted nearby and was surveying carefully.

For a moment, that frail little body of Xuan Er shuddered for a moment. However, the thought of Uncle Lin beside her calmed her down once more as she raised her pitch yet another notch.

'BOOHOO…!!!'

Lin Fan looked around and grinned. To think that it would work! There seems to be a number of beasts now!

He wondered what their cultivation states were like.

But on second thought, he should just scrap that thought. This was near the boundaries, so there shouldn't be any beasts that were too strong lurking around.

"Uncle Lin, they seem to be here!" As the commotion in the woods grew, Xuan Er started cowering her fragile body a little again.

"Yes. Don't worry, I'm beside you." Lin Fan was smiling.

"Okay…" She nodded her head and bawled ever more helplessly.

To these Ancient beasts, that sound was absolutely delicious, baiting them in with alluring charm.

BAM!

Just then, an Ancient beast lunged out of the woods with tremendous force.

That muscular body and malevolent face gave Xuan Er a big shock.

'Ancient Beast: Moonlight Howling Wolf. Utmost celestial full cultivation state.'

Lin Fan knew that there were not many high leveled beasts around this area. The strongest they could get were mostly utmost celestials.

'RAWR…!'

The ground shook as yet another towering beast appeared right before Xuan Er's face.

'Ancient Beast: Single Eyed Giant Ape. Earth celestial lower level.'

Looking at the beast, Lin Fan was pleasantly surprised. To think that an earth celestial beast would be lured out. Not bad!

One by one, the beasts came forth.

It was apparent that the existence of this tasty little kid had attracted their attentions.

'ROAR…!'

The Single Eyed Giant Ape hollered out at some of the surrounding beasts. It was as though he was saying, 'This is my prey! All of you get lost!'

'AWP…! AWP…!'

The other beasts yelled out in disgruntlement. However, the Single Eyed Giant Ape was way stronger than them. It was not as though they could snatch the food away from him anyway!

The Single Eyed Giant Ape smirked as he saw these tactful beasts letting him have his way. He then glared straight at Xuan Er.

Even though this prey might be a tad small, he could smell her delicious scent. This was a gourmet food for sure!

"U-uncle Lin…" Looking at these beasts before her, Xuan Er's face was pale. However, the sensation of a hand resting gently on her shoulders eased her small little soul immediately.

'That's right. But Uncle Lin is here. I won't be afraid!' Xuan Er shrugged her small little head. She then looked at these beasts and stuck out her tongue, "Come on…come on! I'm not afraid of you guys…!"

'ROAR…!' The Single Eyed Giant Ape howled. How dare this small little thing be so insolent! He then pounced out at her.

"Uncle Lin, he's coming…!" Looking at the leap of the Single Eyed Giant Ape, Xuan Er shouted.

"It's alright. You'll be fine…"

Just then, Lin Fan appeared out of his Stealth mode. With a bright flash of his Eternal Axe, he slammed down on the Single Eyed Giant Ape.

'URGH…!'

Blood sprayed through the skies. In that single instance, the Single Eyed Giant Ape was sliced clean by Lin Fan.

That towering figure fell to the ground with a thud, motionless.

"We won…!" At the scene before her, Xuan Er jumped up and down with joy. "Uncle Lin, you're just way too great!"

Looking at the elated look on Xuan Er's face, Lin Fan tossed his hair back and replied calmly, "It's nothing much. Watch closely now. This is all your credit."

Looking at how the Single Eyed Giant Ape was sliced in one single strike, the other beasts howled out in fear. Turning heels, they tried sprinting away from this place.

But of course, how could Lin Fan give them the opportunity to do so?

"All of you, stay here!"

Like a butcher's knife, Lin Fan's single slice with his Eternal Axe's swing reaped in the beasts one after another.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Earth celestial lower level beast.'

'Ding…Experience points +500.'

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Utmost celestial full cultivation beast.'

'Ding…Experience points +80.'

...

Lin Fan was in ecstasy right now. This was the best sort of feeling, the feeling of experience points gushing through his body.

"How was that? Exciting?" After Lin Fan had slain all the beasts, he turned around and took a look at Xuan Er.

"Yepp…!" She nodded her head repeatedly while her little heart was thumping furiously. "Uncle Lin! You're really, really the bestest best! None of these beasts are a match for you!"

While Lin Fan only grinned lightly, his heart was brimming with pride.

That was for sure. If these beasts could be a match for Yours Truly, then Yours Truly would have been out in the pugilistic world for nothing!

"Xuan Er, you were the one who got us all of these beasts today! Let's head back and show them all to the village chief and the others!" Lin Fan smiled.

"Yepp! Xuan Er is not useless at all!" Xuan Er clapped her hands happily. She then raised her chin and beamed at Lin Fan with those pretty, cute features of hers.

Lin Fan kept the corpses in his storage and headed back to the village with Xuan Er.

Upon reaching the village and taking out the corpses, the villagers were filled with astonishment once more. After realizing that it was due to Xuan Er's credit, the praises were rained upon her as well.

This had Xuan Er leaping around in happiness with flowers blossoming in her heart. She could almost fly with every step she took.

Seeing this, the village chief was extremely heartened.

From Lin Fan's face, the village chief could tell that he was about to leave soon. However, he did not inquire him personally regarding it. After all, that was going to be a fact.

However, the fact that he had brought so many changes and joy to the village was something that the village chief was really comforted about.

"I'm not the strong one! Even though I can't deny that my credit is pretty significant, Uncle Lin did a lot too!" Xuan Er was now in the center of everyone's attention. She beamed and commented to the villagers around her.

These villagers naturally knew of the truth behind it. However, they were all willing to play along and praise Xuan Er as long as this could cheer her up.

Breaking out from the circle of people, Xuan Er ran over to Lin Fan and beckoned to him.

Lin Fan bent down, allowing Xuan Er to whisper in his ears.

"Uncle Lin, see! Xuan Er isn't selfish! I won't take the praise alone! Did you see me asking them to praise you too? I'm such a good person, right?"

Looking at this cheeky little mischievous Xuan Er, Lin Fan could not help but grin.

Lin Fan then had Xuan Er stay within the village and headed out into the woods once more.

Today was the last day.

Once tomorrow arrived, he was going to continue forth on his journey.

A peaceful life could dull one's fighting spirit after all.



Chapter 463: The Strongest System's Hidden BUFF

'Firmament…!'

BOOM!

A bright flash of light from the Eternal Axe dissipated in the skies. Under the formidable slash of the Eternal Axe, the beasts ahead were annihilated without any words.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing utmost celestial upper-level beast.'

'Ding…Congratulations on killing utmost celestial full cultivation beast.'

'Ding...'

'Holy shit! That was dangerous! To think that I would land in a nest of beasts!' As Lin Fan treaded through the forest, he had no intentions of going easy on anything. After all, these beasts were ferocious beyond anything else. However, even though he did encounter plenty of low levelled beasts, the amount of experience points he could gain were pretty limited.

At the same time, Lin Fan was starting to realise an issue. Beasts that were earth celestial and above showed signs of intellect and wisdom. In fact, this very issue might be the reason why most of those high levelled and smarter beasts would leave the boundaries and gather in the central regions.

After all, places which were crowded were usually more affluent. This was something that these beasts sought for as well.

'Absorb…!'

The dense amount of Demonic Qi was all absorbed within the Demon City.

The core of this semi-finished, pseudo-legendary weapon, Demon City, was the big ancient demon. And the big ancient demon himself was the king of the Demon race. However, Lin Fan did not know if the Demon race was the same type as the Ancient beasts.

Or, could it be that they were once part of the Ancient beasts as well? They might have evolved to a point where they broke free and became an extraordinary race of their own.

Ever since he ascended to the Ancient Saint World, Lin Fan had come in contact with many different sorts of races. At the same time, he had learnt that there were all sorts of wonders in this world. Therefore, it was hard to say. The big ancient demon might indeed just be an evolved race that had originally stemmed from Ancient beasts.

Looking at the corpses of the beasts around him, Lin Fan flicked his robes and swept them all into his storage.

He had already made up his mind to leave tomorrow. Therefore, he was just putting in more effort so that he could kill more beasts and provide more food for the village.

Even though the villagers themselves couldn't be considered as absolute weaklings, they were still inadequate compared to the Ancient beasts. Therefore, each time they had to group up together to hunt down a beast was still a pretty dangerous task for them altogether.

Lin Fan was especially concerned about Xuan Er. This cute little fox brat, this sweet little young girl, she was the most adorable kid he had met since he came to the Ancient Saint World, and she was really loveable for the villagers as well.

Even though she might seem like a proud kid, that only served to enhance her cuteness to Lin Fan.

In fact, the thought of keeping her by his side as a disciple after he took down the Ancient race did cross Lin Fan's mind. With such a cute little fox girl around him, life would definitely not get too boring.

Creak. Creak.

Just then, there was a little movement in the woods before him as the grass ruffled. Swinging out his Eternal Axe, Lin Fan cleaved a deep trench in the ground.

A rabbit-like animal stood froze in its tracks, as though it was completely rooted with fear by this scene.

'Eh? What's this thing?' Lin Fan took up this snow-white little thing. This rabbit-like thing was only the size of his palm.

Two long ears and red eyes! Wasn't this just a rabbit?

'Heh. Interesting. To think that there would be such beings in the Ancient Saint World as well.' Lin Fan looked at this little thing with immense curiosity.

Harmless… Even its claws weren't sharp. All four of its limbs were short and stumpy too.

'This looks really cute. Xuan Er should like this!' Dangling this cute little being, Lin Fan thought of her.

Kids were all prone to forgetting things. Perhaps the presence of this cute little thing by Xuan Er's side could ease the pain of him leaving her.

"Rabbit! You better be obedient, or I'll roast you over fire!" Lin Fan slung the Eternal Axe on his shoulders. At the same time, he headed back to the village happily while dangling the rabbit on his finger.

Even though it was still pretty early, he was going to leave tomorrow. Hence, he wanted to spend some time playing with Xuan Er while imparting some moves to her at the same time. After all, the Ancient Saint World was fraught with danger. It was hard to say whether anything bad would happen in the future.

The sun shone brightly in the skies. Lin Fan hummed a tune while he walked within the woods with ease.

...

'H-how…?'

Standing before the village entrance, that relaxed face of Lin Fan was no longer. All the blood drained from his face as he stood there motionless like a fool.

The ground was spilled with blood while flames raged everywhere in the village. Every single house was stained with blood stains.

Lin Fan's face turned extremely grim as he rushed in.

The village was extremely messy, as though it had just been pillaged.

The only things that were laying all over the village were the corpses of the villagers.

Each and every one of those familiar looking faces were now lifeless corpses spread out all over the place.

Lin Fan spotted a body ahead of him. That was the village chief.

He hurried forth, "Village chief! What's going on…!"

But it was too late. The village chief had long passed away. On that frail, elderly face was a look of fury. There was a deep wound in his chest, and all his blood was dried up.

'Ancient race…!' Lin Fan seethed.

He gripped his fist. His face changed as he suddenly recalled, "Xuan Er…!"

Suddenly, Lin Fan burst up from the ground and looked around anxiously.

"GODDAMMIT! NOTHING MUST HAPPEN TO HER!" Lin Fan was howling within his heart as he checked out the bodies one by one.

"No…"

"There's hope…"

"Not this either…"

"Hope. Please give me some hope!" Lin Fan's body was shivering uncontrollably right now. The rabbit that was dangling in his hands was crying out because of Lin Fan's grip strength. But right now, nothing registered within his mind. His only priority is to find Xuan Er.

"No…NO! NO! NO! NOTHING! XUAN ER! WHERE HAVE YOU GONE TO?" Lin Fan screamed out in the desolate village.

"No…she must have been taken away by the Ancient race, that's all! There should still be hope…!" Thinking of how cute Xuan Er was, the Ancient race shouldn't do anything that harsh to her!

The moment this hope appeared in Lin Fan's mind, it grew stronger by the second. Lin Fan was so nervous that he was pushing this hope to be a truth in his mind.

"No…no! I must hurry and chase after them! Or it'll be too late!" Lin Fan turned around and prepared to head out immediately.

"Uncle…uncle Lin…"

Just as Lin Fan was sprinting off, a weak and feeble voice rang out from some bushes nearby.

"XUAN ER…!" Lin Fan's entire mind woke up with a startle as he moved away everything that was near the bushes.

"This…no…!" From the yellow ground beneath the bushes, fresh blood began to flow out downwards. Lin Fan shook his head massively and continued shoving the debris away furiously. But the sight before him caused his entire blood to run cold.

There was a half mooned crescent saber that was pierced through Xuan Er's body, as fresh blood gushed out from the wound.

"H-how could this be…?" Lin Fan reared his head into the skies as he shut his eyes close. He did not dare to believe the sight that was right in his face.

"U-uncle Lin…" That cute little devilish face of Xuan Er was now paler than a sheet of paper. Tears were dripping from those big, wide eyes of hers.

"Grandpa…he told me to stay here and not make a sound…but…it hurts…Xuan Er feels pain…" Xuan Er's face was squinting really hard as she bit down on her lower lips with her bloodstained teeth. It was as though she had been bearing the pain all this while.

"How could this be…?" Looking at the state Xuan Er was in, that firm heart of Lin Fan could not stop crumbling in sorrow. He tried his best to infuse lifeforce over to Xuan Er from his Mythical Parasol Tree.

However, the moment the lifeforce entered Xuan Er, it gushed out as quickly as it entered and dissipated out into the world.

"U-uncle Lin. Xuan Er is strong... Even though it…it hurts…Xuan Er did not make a single sound…! A-am I great?" The light in Xuan Er's eyes were gradually fading as she closed them gently.

"Yes! You're great! Xuan Er is the greatest…!" The only thing that Lin Fan could feel right now was pain, a deep, tormenting pain. It was a really, really long time since he had last felt pain like this.

The reason why Lin Fan had been working so hard to become stronger was so that he would never have to experience pain like this ever again in his life.

"U-uncle Lin…"

"M-me and…and you…"

"We…are…friends…"

Thud.

Those feebly, thin hands of Xuan Er's tried to caress Lin Fan's cheeks. However, like a kite that has lost its strings, they dropped onto the ground lifelessly before they could reach him.

With that, the final shimmer of light disappeared entirely from Xuan Er's eyes.

"XUAN ER…!!!" Lin Fan could feel himself about to explode right now.

How could a cute, lovely girl as such have to go through such a tormenting life?!

"YOU MOTHERF*CKERS OF THE GODDAMNED ANCIENT RACE! YOURS TRULY SWEARS THAT I WON'T F*CKING BE CALLED A HUMAN IF I DON'T EXTERMINATE YOUR GODDAMNED RACE OF DEGENERATES!!!"

'Ding…The Strongest System's Hidden BUFF initiated: Berserk Ascension Sword. Time Limit: 1 day.'



Chapter 464: What The Hell? All Of Them Are Candidates For Best Actors!

Within the mountainous valleys came a series of eerie voices.

A small little team of Ancient race tribesmen walked in the mountainous regions. That horrifying aura caused all the surrounding beasts to shiver in fear, hiding from this group of people.

"HAHA! To think that instead of that stinking human, we would find a village for ourselves instead!" One of the towering Ancient race tribesmen guffawed with his hideous features. Something was dangling on his fingers, which he had robbed from the village.

"That feeling of slicing those ants with a single blade was exciting indeed! It's just a pity that their cultivation states were way too low to do much for us." Another one of the Ancient race tribesmen laughed coldly. To him, massacring villages like this was just another casual event, just like having a meal.

Out of the thousands of races of the worlds out there, he had butchered a number of them thus far.

"But where the hell did that human go to? If I capture him, I'll be sure to devour him viciously."

"Oh, but one of the women from the Wings race just now was pretty feisty! But a pity that she was a weakling and went down after just a few hits."

"HAHA…! You think that's strong? Our decanus here took down the village chief with a single slice!"

...

To this ten-men squad, every single thing that came across their way would just be massacred and robbed. Nothing was left alive after they passed by.

The leader of this group was a decanus of the Ancient race. He was ordered to capture that human. However, upon reaching the woods, he found nothing but the bodies of his Ancient race tribesmen. After searching in this region for a few days, he came across a village instead. Now, that was something interesting to them.

"If that human were to bump into our dear decanus, he would definitely be so scared he would shit his…" But before this Ancient race tribesman guard had finished his sentence, an axe swung through the skies and cleaved his head off cleanly.

All the Ancient race tribesmen stopped in their tracks, stunned.

"Who's there!" The decanus surveyed his surroundings warily, shocked by that axe that had swung out of the void from nowhere.

"Decanus, there…!" An Ancient race tribesman caught sight of a shadow in the distance and exclaimed out.

"Okay…!" Looking at the figure in the distance, the Ancient race decanus frowned before bursting out into wild laughter.

"HAHA! Seems like we can spare our efforts now! Someone has sent himself to our doorsteps! Human, you must have devoured some tiger guts to dare to lay your hands on my fellow tribesmen!" Looking at the figure in the distance, the decanus remarked icily.

Upon hearing the words of their decanus, the other Ancient race tribesmen were elated as well.

Human…? Could this be THAT human that they were ordered to hunt down?

"Human! Cease and desist! Surrender now, or I shall devour you personally…!" The Ancient race decanus called out.

BAM!

Just then, that figure from a distance appeared right before their faces.

"I'll make sure I'll have you begging me to spare you some mercy and kill you later on." Lin Fan seethed the words out. This was a rage that he had felt long ago.

He looked around. Every single item that these Ancient race tribesmen were holding belonged to the villagers.

"Human, just you alone…?!' One of the Ancient race tribesmen guard barked at Lin Fan.

Thud.

A flash of light.

The four limbs of the guard who had just opened his mouth were severed entirely, as black blood gushed out from the wounds.

'ARGH…!!!'

A tragic cry rang through and pierced the skies.

The Ancient race decanus tightened his face and sent out a tremendous punch, "HOW DARE YOU…!"

BAM!

That punch which carried immense and boundless force found itself slamming on Lin Fan's body.

"Hmph! Human! You've gone beyond your place! I shall have you regret that today…" Feeling the sensation of his punch landing on its target, the decanus was overwhelmed with joy. However, his face changed in the next instance.

"How could this be…?!"

Thud.

Another flash of light.

That pitch-black arm of the Ancient race decanus flew up into the skies, as the same black blood sprayed all over the place.

"YOU…!"

The moment the Ancient race tribesmen guards saw their decanus's arm severed with a single move, they were completely stumped. However, these were warriors who were used to combat. There was no way back.

"None of you shall dream of leaving today." Looking at these Ancient race tribesmen, Lin Fan did not even harbor a single thought of toying with them. The only thing he wanted was to hack them to death.

Thud.

"ARGH…MY ARM…!"

"MY LEG…!"

"DAMN YOU, HUMAN! I'LL FIGHT YOU…!"

...

With raw power, Lin Fan suppressed the entire squad. Even the decanus of the squad was nothing in Lin Fan's eyes.

At this moment, the forest was a frightful place to be in, with tragic cries ringing out all over the place.

"HUMAN, KILL ME IF YOU'VE GOT THE GUTS…!"

The Ancient race decanus's face was filled with fear. To think that even the ten of them wouldn't be a match for this single person! And to think that this human would sever all their limbs, leaving them as a motionless log!

"Hmph, you want to die? Not so easy." Looking at these lifeless logs that were covered with blood, Lin Fan's lips curled into a grin.

He leaped into the skies and entered Stealth mode, waiting patiently.

The Ancient race decanus could not understand how this human would suddenly decide to spare them. However, he suddenly realized what was happening as he screamed out in fear.

"HUMAN! KILL US…!!!"

They belonged to the Ancient race. Therefore, beasts would naturally fear and stay away from them. However, given the state they were currently in, why would any of those Ancient beasts fear them?

'ROAR…!'

Suddenly, a wild howl appeared from the forest.

"Killing you is too much of a mercy for you guys. Today, you guys shall slowly experience what it feels like to be gnawed to death by beasts." Lin Fan laughed coldly.

One by one, the beasts appeared before this bunch of Ancient race tribesmen with their brutish auras. These Ancient beasts were the most sensitive to things like the scent of blood.

"NO…!" All the beasts lunged out towards these Ancient race tribesmen.

"HAHAHA…! ALL OF YOU DESERVE DEATH…!" Seeing the scene below, Lin Fan could not stop laughing wildly. And just as an Ancient race tribesman was being devoured, Lin Fan would swing down with his Eternal Axe, killing them.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Ancient race decanus.'

'Ding…Hidden BUFF activated.'

'Ding…Experience points +10,000.'

'Ding…Congratulations on leveling up.'

'Cultivation State: Earth Celestial Middle Level.'

...

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA…!" Looking at the tragic state of these Ancient race tribesmen, Lin Fan's laughter was maniacal. "Xuan Er, rest in peace. I'll definitely seek out revenge for you."

...

Within that ruined village…

Tablets were laid all around the village.

As for Xuan Er's tablet, it was surrounded by fresh flowers. This once lively village was now eerily silent.

Just then, the void rippled.

"That's an interesting fella indeed." Just then, a figure appeared above the skies in the village. Looking down at the tablets laid around, she smiled casually.

"Xuan Er, how long more do you want to lay there for?" This figure in the skies was fleeting. It was as though her body itself was filled with a seductive charm.

If Lin Fan were present right now, he would definitely be stunned by these words.

One by one, those tablets began to vibrate. Those supposedly dead villagers crawled out from beneath their tablets.

Looking at her dirty clothes from the trench dug for her, Xuan Er pouted her lips a little unhappily. With a gentle shrug, all the dust and dirt disappeared in an instant.

"Master…!" Looking at who it was in the void, Xuan Er floated up happily to the other party.

"What's wrong? You're missing that Uncle Lin of yours?" Looking at this disciple of hers, the woman smiled cynically.

"Master, Uncle Lin is a good person. Why must we lie to him? Uncle Lin must be really sad right now!" Xuan Er's mouth was still pouting, evidently a little displeased.

The woman looked at her disciple before looking back into the distance, ignoring her question. However, she was laughing coldly in her heart.

"Young man, wasting too much time on bullsh*tting. If I don't give you some motivation, then you'd really just take your own sweet time."

But what this woman had not expected was that this fella would take such a liking to her own disciple. That was pretty unexpected.

But that was good as well.

Since he said that he was the hope, then he had better show some achievements. The state he was in right now was definitely far from enough.



Chapter 465: What Level Of Silliness Is This?

The ten-men squad of the ancient race laid around butchered up by Lin Fan. The stench of their blood permeated the entire place. Under the frightful aura of Lin Fan, all the beasts started retreating silently as well.

But as for Lin Fan, his spirit was still extremely heated up right now. There was a burning rage that was swelling within his heart that he direly needed to release.

Wielding the Eternal Axe in his hands, Lin Fan looked into the distance from the mountainous valleys.

Right now, the only feeling he had in his heart was regret. He blamed himself for everything. He knew that he was wanted as a fugitive by the ancient race, yet he had resided within the village. He was the one who had brought their untimely demise.

A streak of light burst out, tearing through the skies into the distance.

From the bodies of the ancient race tribesmen, Lin Fan obtained a map that indicated a base site of the ancient race right up ahead. With all the frustration pent up in his heart, he knew that he wanted to murder every single ancient race tribesmen right now.

Furthermore, now that he had the BUFF on him, even though it was just limited to a single day, he had to make the most use out of it and level up. That way, he could tread forth with even more confidence in the future.

However, he was surprised that he had not bumped into a single ancient race tribesman along the way.

‘How could this be…?’

Wasn’t the Ancient Saint World supposed to be populated and ruled by the ancient race? How could it be that he had not bumped into a single one of them all along the way?

Usually, when he did not wish to bump into them, they would appear one by one like a bunch of dogs. To think that now that he was trying to seek them out, it was as though they had vanished entirely.

From what Lin Fan could garner, the BUFF given to him by the system accorded him with more experience points per kill, and perhaps some other benefits.

However, if he used it on low-level beasts, there would practically be of no use at all.

After all, the difference in cultivation states affected the experience points gained way too much.

Any one of the ancient race tribesmen that were earth celestial cultivation state and above were the target groups that Lin Fan was hunting for right now.

Floating in the air, Lin Fan looked down at the Earth below. He hollered out in rage, "YOURS TRULY IS A HUMAN! WHO THE HELL CAN COME AND KILL ME…?"

This holler was like thunder that boomed out across the lands.

However, no matter how hard Lin Fan tried to shout out, the surroundings remained silent and quiet all the same, without being affected at all.

Lin Fan frowned, ‘I can’t wait any longer. If this is the case, I’ll have to level up in the middle of combat then!’

Lin Fan did not know the number of ancient race tribesmen that resided within the base. However, he wasn’t afraid in the least bit. The only way he could vent out this hatred in his heart was by taking the cheap lives of these ancient race degenerates.

PSHEW!

In an instant, Lin Fan disappeared from where he was as he darted ahead once more.

Right after Lin Fan’s departure, a group of figures appeared in the skies.

"What’s that fella up to?" That devilishly seductive woman looked in the direction Lin Fan darted forth. Her brows creased, unable to comprehend the actions of this man at all.

"Master, what’s wrong with Uncle Lin? Xuan Er feels that if we continue to deceive Uncle Lin like this, Uncle Lin would definitely not like Xuan Er anymore in the future!" That cute and dazzling Xuan Er tugged at the woman’s exquisite silk linens.

The original village chief of the village looked sharper than before in terms of aura, despite still looking elderly with white hair.

Looking at the way Lin Fan was right now, he could not help but feel a little worried. While he felt that his Mistress’s actions might be a little off, he couldn’t disobey her orders at all, as he was just an underling.

The woman looked at Xuan Er and patted her head gently, "Xuan Er, are you blaming your Master now?"

"Xuan Er isn’t…" Xuan Er shook her head hurriedly.

The woman was feeling bewildered as well. What in the world was he up to?

There could never be growth with stagnancy.

She had wanted to use this small little example to rectify Lin Fan’s view of this world, so that he could understand how weak he was in the face of things. But why did this guy seem so hurried, as though he was in a rush to do something?

The Ancient Saint World was divided into eight different districts. Each of these districts were helmed by one of the eight utmost beings of the ancient race.

This district they were in right now was once helmed by the Ancient One. Back when the Ancient One had fallen, there was naturally no leader in this place anymore. However, it has been ten thousand years since then, and he had been replaced with a new utmost being in his position.

Even though this new utmost being was comparatively weaker compared to the other seven, he was still a force to be reckoned with.

Even if he were to appear in this district, he would have to tread with care. Otherwise, if any strife were to occur, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Mistress, that area ahead seems to be a small base of the ancient race." That elderly village chief spoke up.

"Hmm?" The woman was stunned, "Yang Kun, what are you implying?"

The village chief, Yang Kun, looked back at the woman with uncertainty, "Nothing, Mistress. It’s all just a guess of my own."

"It’s right, don’t bother with it. That’s impossible. There shouldn’t be anyone that silly in this world. Even though it’s just a small base of the ancient race, the ancient race tribesmen within amount to millions of them. This is undoubtedly just courting death." The woman denied those thoughts immediately. Such a thing was definitely impossible.

"Master, can we please follow and check it out? Xuan Er doesn’t want Uncle Lin to be hurt…" Xuan Er wrung the woman’s slender hands and asked endearingly.

"Alright…" The woman nodded her head.

...

Lin Fan was rushing forth like a maniac. Finally, he caught sight of the small base. This small base was akin to a dynasty back in the Xuanhuang World, with high walls in all four directions.

Suddenly, Lin Fan could sense a blood stench being emanated out. This blood stench originated from the base.

Those pitch-black walls of the base were filled with bloodstains, and there were bodies of different races hanging on them. It was as though they were announcing to the world that the ancient race were still the rulers of this world, and the other races were nothing but meat waiting to be slaughtered.

A series of tragic yells and cries rang out from within the city walls, piercing the skies.

Even if Lin Fan were quite a distance away right now, he could hear everything clearly. These were the voices of different races. All of those people were being tormented right now.

Upon hearing these voices, the image of Xuan Er surged within Lin Fan’s heart once more. Even though he had not witnessed for himself the torture that Xuan Er had undergone when she was killed by the ancient race tribesmen, he could imagine it in his mind.

It must have been hell.

‘HURGH…!’ Spinning his body around, he burst down like a meteor that had broken through the stratosphere in the skies.

BOOM!

Lin Fan landed from the skies right in front of the city walls.

Looking at this base of the ancient race, Lin Fan did not have a single strain of fear in his heart. That was because he was being supported by a source of energy inside him.

"ANCIENT RACE, ALL OF YOU BETTER COME OUT TO RECEIVE YOUR DEATHS…!" Lin Fan’s holler was like a typhoon ripping its way through the entire base.

Standing there, he gripped his Eternal Axe ever tighter.

One should bide time and wait for the opportunity to seek vengeance. But to Lin Fan, that was just an excuse made up by cowards and weaklings.

"Who dares to be insolent…!" Just then, a voice boomed out from within the base.

BAM!

The ground shook as the towering doors of the base slammed open suddenly. From within, a dense amount of pitch-black ancient race tribesmen gushed out in an orderly manner like locusts.

These hideous and ugly looking ancient race tribesmen line up with discipline beneath the city walls. With just a single glance over, there were at least tens of thousands of them right now.

The combined aura of their fiendishness was like a dark beam of light that pierced through the Heavens above. Standing there, Lin Fan could not help but gulp down his saliva. His hands were sweating right now.

From within that army of ancient race tribesmen, an exceptionally towering figure walked out.

This ancient race tribesman looked way more formidable than any of the others. His aura was bursting out, running rampant in a berserk manner. Catching sight of the figure before him, he burst out laughing maniacally.

"HAHAHA! I am the Centurion of the ancient race, Gu Tao! How dare you act so impertinently alone? You must be really, really tired of living!" Looking at that lone human before him, Gu Tao could not stop his guffaws.

...

Right now, everyone in the skies were absolutely dumbfounded.

"How could it turn into this…?" The woman stared at Lin Fan absolutely flabbergasted. To think that this fella would really come and throw his life against the ancient race!

Just what level of silliness should one have for them to do such a thing?!

Anyone in the right frame of mind would definitely not attempt something as crazy as this!



Chapter 416: How Dare You Seduce Me!

'One Whip To Rule The World.'

As Lin Fan muttered out these words softly, he couldn't help but remember another similar phrase. While it might be coarser than this, the meaning should be similar.

Lin Fan stopped whatever he was doing.

Heaven's Will, who was wailing and struggling, came to a startled stop as well, as though this change in intensity was causing him to feel uncomfortable. He glanced at Lin Fan blankly, wondering why the other party had stopped.

Was it because he was finally fearful of the Heavens? Had this man finally realized that his actions were sinful in the eyes of the world?

But along with that thought, Heaven's Will felt as though something was missing from his heart.

There was an unspeakable void in his heart…

"You…" Heaven's Will wanted to speak up when his expression changed. He had just realized that the aura around Lin Fan was changing.

A feeling of subjugation burst out from Lin Fan.

Under this repressive aura, it was as though the entire world was dark, without a single spark of light.

"What are you doing?" Heaven's Will stared at Lin Fan with immense focus while his heart skipped a beat. This aura was causing him to feel fearful once more.

It was as though the being standing before him wasn't a giant, but a colossal titan instead.

Those eyes, which were shut just now, opened up once more, as a bright flash of light emitted from those pupils. It seemed as though they could see through everything in this world.

"Dao…This is the Dao…!" Heaven's Will was stunned, with a look of disbelief, apparently unable to take in everything right now.

This world had given birth to him, and hence he was the only Dao in this world.

A living, breathing Dao.

And when one reached the ultimate state of cultivation and broke through every single layer of barrier there was, one would break free from everything and become the Dao.

But, it had been forever since anyone had ever achieved it. To think that the man before him would be enlightened!

This was a marvelous feeling. He was thoroughly anticipating this final ultimate skill of training!

Lin Fan raised his hand gently. That hand which was raised tore the void apart immediately, with a long whip stood upright, as though it was nurturing something.

Heaven's Will looked at the whip in shock. He could feel a really repressive aura.

'Final Ultimate Technique of Training: One Whip To Rule The World.'

BOOM!

The moment Lin Fan spoke up, the Heavens and Earth trembled. As though it was unable to withstand the might of the whip, the void began to rip apart continuously.

"N-NO…!" Looking at the whip descending from the sky, Heaven's Will's heart sank deeply as he screamed at the top of his lungs.

PSCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

'AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....!'

Breaking through layers of void, the whip had finally landed on the body of the Heaven's Will. While there wasn't much destructive power with the whip itself, there was a mysterious sensation that shot right into the heart of the Heaven's Will.

'Ahhhhhh…!!!' The elderly face of Heaven's Will moaned. In that instant, that pale white face of his was flushed red.

The final defense of his heart had toppled over entirely under the crushing tsunami. That ultimate feeling of shame was running amok within the heart of Heaven's Will.

...

"Huff…" Lin Fan heaved out a deep breath. He had finally caught hold of that magnificent feeling.

The final ultimate technique of training… He had mastered it entirely.

Strong... Too strong! That was a direct whip to the heart itself, with no room for resistance at all!

Lin Fan looked over at Heaven's Will who was tied up on the Heavenly pillars. But, he was startled at what he saw.

The initially infuriated Heaven's Will now had an extremely satisfied look on his face, as he reminisced that pleasurable sensation.

'HOLY F*CK…!' Lin Fan lowered his head, unable to bear this sight directly. To think that this blood old faggot would give off such a lewd face! That was really disgusting!

"Heaven's Will, do you pledge your allegiance?" Lin Fan asked.

"I do." Heaven's Will's face was calm, without any hesitation. It was as though he had submitted to Lin Fan thoroughly. Upon hearing these words of the Heaven's Will, Namo Saint Emperor, who had already f*cked up the ground badly, gave off a completely stumped look.

How could this be…?!

To think that the Heaven's Will had submitted to this guy?! Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Just what sort of trickery had this kid used?!

...

Now that he had subjugated the Heaven's Will, Lin Fan chuckled. He would definitely have much use for this Heaven's Will in the future. There was no way he could let him die. After all, most people in Cangling Continent were innocent. They shouldn't die for no reason just because of him.

Now that he had conquered over the Heaven's Will, that was his biggest aim.

Lin Fan let the Heaven's Will loose. The moment the Heaven's Will landed on the ground, he laid there crippled. Leaning there on the pillar, he was busy reminiscing the sensations from before.

Lin Fan came before Heaven Queen, who was absolutely rooted with fear. Laughing coldly, he asked, "Heaven Queen, have you ever considered what your outcome would be like?"

"You can't do something as humiliating as that to me!" Heaven Queen gritted her teeth. No matter what, she would never accept a humiliation as such.

She had thought that a single strain of consciousness was enough. But now, she discovered that it was far from enough. What a tragedy this was.

"Don't worry, I won't shame you as such. You're not even worthy of me humiliating you." Stepping behind the Heaven Queen, Lin Fan commented out imposingly.

This was the mighty Heaven Queen! Since when had she been trampled by others as such?

With just her looks, even enemies who caught sight of her would definitely be captivated. In fact, they would even soften their tone and actions so as to please her. But to think that this man would dare to treat her as such. Was he even still a man?!

Heaven Queen remained silent for a moment. She raised her head, "Let me off. I'll be your servant or slave."

"Oh, Heaven Queen. I know that you're just a strain of consciousness of some powerful being in the upper world. Just what is it that would have you lower your dignity as such? Oh, but then again, with just your looks alone, it would be pretty formidable looking if I were to bring you around as a slave, wouldn't it?" Lin Fan chuckled.

Upon hearing these words, Heaven Queen's heart leaped with joy. Perhaps there's a chance of this playing through? She then continued, "I can give you everything... including THAT."

"THAT?" Lin Fan chuckled.

"Yes, THAT." Heaven Queen said pitifully. That humongous chest of hers that was bouncing up and down was even more horrifying.

"What exactly is THAT?" Lin Fan asked once more.

"Lay down and serve…you can do whatever you want to me."

...

"PUI…!" Lin Fan looked at Heaven Queen condescendingly, "You bloody b*tch! Yours Truly is a man with a wife! How dare you brazenly flirt with innocent young men under broad daylight?! To think that you've even got the audacity to try break up a perfectly blissful family! Oh, you thoroughly deserve death! Even if my wife does not come and kill you, Yours Truly will peel you alive first!"

Thinking that she had a shot at life, Heaven Queen's face changed entirely as she looked at Lin Fan in disbelief. Even though it was just a strain of consciousness, her skills at seduction were still second to none. How could this man resist it?

"You're not a man…!" Heaven Queen's eyes were seething with rage. This wasn't anger over Lin Fan's decision to kill her, but the fact that he was completely ignorant to her charms.

"Chey! Even if Yours Truly isn't a man, Yours Truly can turn into a man with a single skill! Thinking back at how Senior Brother Meng was burnt to ashes by you has me burning with rage. Alright, Yours Truly shall let you experience that today!"

In that instant, a flame appeared on Lin Fan's palm. With a gentle flick, he tossed that flame over at the Heaven Queen.

BOOM!

"B*stard, we'll meet again…" With that, Heaven Queen's body vanished from the world.

"Hmph, I know we'll meet again. But don't worry. Each time I see you, I'll f*ck you up real good." Lin Fan twitched his lips in disdain.

Translator's Thoughts
Lam Lam
BLISSFUL FAMILY HAHAHAHA. But seriously, all of his actions are just 10/10 Stephen Chow. Also, F-ing her up real good. Hmms. I wonder if there's any deeper meaning to that. Oh, but I'm completely innocent, guys! Don't look at me like that, gosh!

And seems like you guys didn't miss the LOTR reference in the previous chapter. Originally, I wanted to name it 'One Whip Over The Four Seas', but I really couldn't resist it heh. Furthermore, the meaning hasn't changed so all's cool right? :P

Also, did you guys manage to catch the reference that LF was thinking of at the start? Just for those who hadn't managed to, I'm pretty sure it's this: 'Whip out your .... and the world shall quiver'. Remember now? Heh!



Chapter 466: I'll Chop All Of You Down!

"Tired of living? HAHA…! Ancient race! Yours Truly shall put his words out straight up today! It’s either you guys or Yours Truly who’s going to leave this place alive today! Who’s afraid of whom? Yours Truly shall use your lives to compensate as a tribute for everyone in that small village!" Lin Fan hollered out as his aura erupted out of his entire body.

Even though the ancient race tribesmen had the advantage in numbers, most of them were just cannon fodder. The only issue now was that Lin Fan did not know what the highest cultivation state amongst them was.

Even though he had declared a death bout with them, Lin Fan knew that he wouldn’t die right here. After all, Rebirth through Blood should be able to help him fight them to the death.

At the same time, he could always retreat within the Heaven and Earth Smelt to hide.

Even though Lin Fan had made up his mind to fight them to the death, he had planned his retreat path as well.

After all, how could he just die right here? He swore that he wouldn’t call himself a human if he didn’t massacre the last of these ancient race tribesmen.

Those figures who were floating in the voids were entirely stumped by Lin Fan’s words.

‘To think that it’s because of us…!’ One of the men who had acted as a villager looked down at that lone figure below in disbelief. He had not expected this human to head here to challenge the ancient race to a deathmatch all for the sake of vengeance!

As for the village chief, Yang Kun, his heart skipped a beat as well. That elderly face of his could not help but crease up even more upon hearing Lin Fan’s words.

"Since this human takes us so seriously, wouldn’t you please save him, Mistress? There are so many ancient race tribesmen here! He’s bound to die!" Yang Kun implored.

He did not wish for this human to die in their hands.

At the same time, his Mistress was a human too! How could she just watch her fellow human race member die like this?!

The woman looked down. Her face was bewildered right now as well, as though she was contemplating something.

"You guys don’t understand…"

"Mistress, your powers are beyond the Heavens! It’s definitely not impossible for you to rescue this human from their hands!" Yang Kun begged out once more.

"Master, please save Uncle Lin! Xuan Er begs you!" Looking at Lin Fan below, Xuan Er’s face was anxious right now as well.

"No, the issue is not as simple as you guys may think. If I really do strike out, things would definitely be bad. And the outcome is not something that you guys can imagine." The girl replied with wariness.

"Master…!" Xuan Er tugged at her sleeves nervously. At the same time, her feet were twitching nervously with panic.

...

Below, Lin Fan took in a deep breath, "Trashes, cut the trash talk. Yours Truly shall chop all of you down today!"

BAM!

Suddenly, Lin Fan’s figure disappeared from where he was standing.

‘Firmament…!’

Within the void, the Eternal Axe’s flash burst out, bringing with it boundless power as it rippled through the battlefield.

"Hmph, insolent…!" The centurion of the ancient race tribesmen, Gu Tao, snorted coldly on seeing this man’s bold move. Those massive pitch-black muscles expanded rapidly as the sword in his arm danced in the skies. As if it were slicing through the void, it struck out in the direction of the axe’s flash.

BAM!

‘Earth celestial full cultivation state.’

Lin Fan could make out this man’s cultivation state. It was higher than his own state by 2 levels. Even though it might be tricky, taking him down was not something that was entirely impossible.

Lin Fan glared at Gu Tao. Like a streak of lightning, he flashed by and headed behind to kill the cannon fodder within the army.

"All of you useless cannon fodder… Go to hell!" Lin Fan hollered out.

‘Three-headed and six-armed Faceless Sky Demon!’

‘Firmament Sword!’

In that instant, the three-headed and six-armed demon flew out, as an uncountable number of sword wills appeared in the skies, shooting out at the army.

Lin Fan hollered in rage upon realizing that this human had dodged him and was heading out to slaughter his fellow tribesmen.

"YOU B*STARD! COME AT ME IF YOU’VE GOT GUTS!"

"HAHA! Once Yours Truly is done with these ants, I shall take you down! I’ll chop…!"

‘Ding…Congratulations on killing utmost celestial middle-level being.’

‘Ding…Congratulations on killing utmost celestial upper-level being.’

‘Ding…Congratulations on killing utmost celestial lower-level being.’

...

At this point, Lin Fan was like a death god. Wherever he passed by, nothing was left alive. In his eyes, these ancient race tribesmen were nothing but ants.

Even though the experience points were limited, they were still pretty useful thanks to the BUFF.

"AH…! CENTURION! HELP US! THIS HUMAN IS TOO STRONG…!"

"CENTURION…!"

These ancient race tribesmen soldiers had not expected Lin Fan to be this strong! They didn’t have any room for resistance!

"YOU B*STARD…!’ Looking at the scene before him, Gu Tao flew into rage and darted towards Lin Fan.

This guy’s cultivation state was higher than Lin Fan.

If Lin Fan were to face him head on, he might not be a match for him yet. But, something like dodging was pretty easy for him nevertheless.

‘Stealth…!’

Slicing down with a single blade, Gu Tao’s force seemed to have sealed the entire area’s void forcefully.

But…to think that the human had vanished suddenly! That caught Gu Tao by surprise. But just as Gu Tao was searching for his presence, tragic cries rang out from another side.

By some unknown means, the human had appeared at the other end of the battlefield, and was still slaying his ancient race tribesmen down mercilessly!

...

"S-strong…!" Looking down at Lin Fan from the skies, Yang Kun could not help but gasp out.

Yang Kun had thought that Lin Fan would definitely stand no chance against the overwhelming forces of these ancient race tribesmen. To think that this guy would find so much comfort in the battlefield! It was as though he was a fish that had just discovered water! With every passing second, ancient race tribesmen were going down!

The woman’s gaze at Lin Fan was fluttering as well. She realized that she had underestimated this fella here. However, she could not help but shift her gaze back within the base, revealing a look of worry.

Even though things were fine now, if the ruler of this base were to head out, things might not continue to go on as smoothly.

...

"You damned human! How dare you kill so many of my ancient race tribesmen? I shall have you lay down your life here today!" Looking at how many of his fellow tribesmen were being slain, a burning rage was boiling within Gu Tao.

"GO TO HELL…!"

Suddenly, Lin Fan frowned. He had noticed the sudden surge in the centurion’s aura.

‘HURGH…!’ With a cold roar, Gu Tao’s pitch-black body expanded massively. It was as though something was going to burst out of his back and was struggling continuously within.

BAM!

Suddenly, with a maddened howl, a pair of slimy wings burst out of Gu Tao’s back.

"HUMAN! YOU DESERVE DEATH…!" Gu Tao’s voice was hoarse right now.

Seeing this sight, all the ancient race tribesmen soldiers erupted in cheers.

"HOORAY! THOSE ARE THE BONED WINGS OF OUR CENTURION! THIS HUMAN CANT ESCAPE FOR SURE NOW!"

"LONG LIVE OUR CENTURION…!"

PSHEW!

Suddenly, Lin Fan could feel a dangerous aura darting towards him. He gripped his Eternal Axe instinctively.

BAM!

For some reason, Gu Tao had suddenly appeared from the other end of the battlefield right in his face, and was already in the midst of slashing down with the sword in his hands!

Lin Fan frowned as he leaped backward. To think that this guy would be this strong!

He was not that far away from leveling up right now. He might have a chance if that happened.

Suddenly, Lin Fan’s aura turned blurry as well.

‘Nirvana Finger!’

The void rippled as the ancient race tribesmen who were before Lin Fan discovered to their horror that their bodies were tearing apart.

"CENTURION, HELP…!!!"

"B*STARD! HOW DARE YOU CONTINUE MASSACRING MY TRIBESMEN…?" Looking at how the human was seizing the opportunity to slay more of his kind, Gu Tao leaped down with a massive cleave.

BAM!

Taking on the full blow, Lin Fan’s mouth spewed out fresh blood. However, he let out a cold grin at the same time.

He had done it.



Chapter 467: What About Me?!

'Ding…Congratulations on leveling up.'

'Cultivation State: Earth celestial upper level.'

Feeling the surge of power in his body from leveling up, Lin Fan was even more confident of his chances now.

The strongest BUFF was the strongest indeed. Even the experience points gained from slaying these weak creatures were way different from before.

But it was a pity that the BUFF could only sustain for a single day.

If it could last for a bit longer, Lin Fan was sure that he could definitely reach the top of this world in just that period of time.

"Human! I'll see how long more you can hold on!" Flapping out hard, the boned wings behind Gu Tao's back seemed to be tearing through the void. With a bright flash of light from his longsword, he appeared right in Lin Fan's face once more.

'BREAK…!'

The razor-sharp longsword was flashing with brilliance and boundless power, as it sliced out towards Lin Fan mercilessly.

BAM!

'How could this be…?!'

Gu Tao was stunned. To think that the human could stop his move!

Lin Fan fended Gu Tao's longsword away from him with his Eternal Axe, grinning coldly, "You can go to hell."

"I'LL CHOP…!"

Wielding the Eternal Axe, Lin Fan slammed down hard at Gu Tao.

BAM! BAM!

One swing after another, Lin Fan cleaved down relentlessly.

Gu Tao was blocking the blows with his long sword. But to his surprise, the human seemed to have gotten stronger than before!

"B*STARD…!" Gu Tao howled, wanting to burst forth with all of his strength so that he could repel this human. However, his face changed as a red flash of light appeared.

'Nine Five Legendary Brick!'

Wielding the Nine Five Legendary Brick, Lin Fan slammed down at Gu Tao's head.

Gu Tao had not expected this human to pull out an unknown weapon all of a sudden! Even though this weapon did not have an aura, Gu Tao could tell that it was definitely far from ordinary.

BAM!

Gu Tao used his hand to block away Lin Fan's Nine Five Legendary Brick from touching him.

"HUMAN…YOU…!"

'True Origins Crushing Kick!'

Before Gu Tao could finish his words, his face changed as the action in his arms came to a halt. That malicious looking face turned blurry all of a sudden.

That was a realization of pain.

"How…could…this…" He stared at Lin Fan in absolute disbelief. To think that this human could be this despicable!

'ARGH…!'

In that instant, an unbearable pain surged up into his head. An earth-shattering cry rang out from Gu Tao's mouth. His knees buckled under his weight, hands clutching his crotch. He glared at Lin Fan begrudgingly, "You…!"

"I'LL CHOP…!' Lin Fan did not have the time to waste bantering with this guy. Therefore, he just swung his Eternal Axe straight down at Gu Tao's neck.

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Earth celestial full cultivation ancient race tribesman.'

'Ding…Experience points +60,000.'

'Ding…Congratulations on leveling up.'

'Cultivation State: Earth celestial full cultivation state.'

"HAHA…!" Lin Fan reared his head into the skies and burst out laughing. Indeed! He could level up with a single slice! Who else could dare to face up against him…?

Lin Fan lifted Gu Tao's head and called out, "Who else wants to step forth…?!"

Suddenly, Lin Fan's imposing figure became ever so frightening in the eyes of the ancient race tribesmen.

"AH…! THE CENTURION IS DEAD!"

"THIS HUMAN HAS KILLED OUR CENTURION!"

"DAMN IT…!"

The ancient race tribesmen soldiers were in a state of confusion right now. They had not expected this outcome at all! To think that the centurion, who was the strongest in their eyes, would be slain by this human with a single cleave of his axe!

This…!

Each time any of the other races from the thousands of worlds out there caught sight of the ancient race, they would be petrified and scared witless. No one had ever dared to behave impertinently before them!

But, this human had dared to come to their base along and kill their centurion right before their eyes!

Everything…everything was way too surreal!

Everyone from the skies stared at the scene below with their jaws agape as well.

Even though this centurion might not be someone that could compare with them, they also knew that Lin Fan had just only ascended into the Ancient Saint World recently!

To think that he would already possess the strength to take down a centurion!

They recalled back to their own experiences back when they had just ascended to this world. They had to live a miserable life, and trained up for many years before they could even match with a centurion!

And the most shocking thing was that Lin Fan had dared to perform this feat right in front of an ancient race base!

There would be few with guts like him in the entire Ancient Saint World right now!

"Mistress, he…!" Yang Kun exclaimed in disbelief. At the same time, he could feel his blood pumping. Even though he had aged considerably, these were the sort of things that he could only dream of achieving in his very own dream world. But, he never managed to muster up the courage.

While the ancient race massacred the other races brutally, these were facts they could only accept and not dare to fight against.

But, the sight of this scene right now had their adrenaline pumping madly!

It was as though a large pent-up amount of hatred had been released from their hearts!

"I'm seeing it…" The woman nodded her head. Her eyes sparkled as well, acknowledging the incredibility of this scene right now. However, it soon changed into a look of worry.

It was because she knew that this issue was far from over. The true horror had yet to begin.

...

BOOM!

Suddenly, thunder crackled in the skies. A frightening and repressing vile aura burst out intensely from within the base.

"Who is it…?" A nerve wrecking holler came forth from within the base.

"JUST WHO IS IT THAT DARES TO KILL MY CENTURION? I'LL HAVE YOU PAY WITH YOUR LIFE…!"

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

It was as though there was an ancient and dangerous creature that was hidden in slumber within the base all along, which had just woken up from the provocation of an outsider.

That tremendous aura shot forth from the base. In fact, it was so strong that even the Heavens were trembling against it.

Lin Fan's face changed. He could tell that this aura was horrifying, truly terrifying. Compared to the centurion from before, the difference was practically that between an ant and an elephant.

Lin Fan had thought that the other end would just send out yet another centurion. But by the looks of it, he seemed to have attracted the attention of the strongest being that resided within the base.

This was going to be a tragedy real quick.

Based on the normal novel routines, wouldn't there normally be a few small little generals before the main character grew stronger with time?!

Why the hell did the death of a single centurion trigger an existence like this?!

Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat as his fingers shivered slightly. If he continued waiting the way he did, he would definitely die right here.

Lin Fan took in a deep breath, pushing down that rising sense of fear in his heart. He then hollered, venting out all the rage in his heart.

"COME OUT IF YOU'VE GOT THE GUTS! YOURS TRULY ISN'T AFRAID OF YOU…!"

Lin Fan was not going to leave. He was going to avenge Xuan Er.

Back in the Xuanhuang World, what sort of opponents had he not met? What sort of adversities had he not managed to scrape through? How could he be afraid of something just like this?

But, if he were to be frank about it, he did feel pretty nervous within his heart. However, none of those feelings were displayed on his face.

It was as though he was making a statement.

'This is the sort of cocky character that Yours Truly stands for!'

...

None of the people up in the void had expected something like this to happen. The woman's face was especially wary right now. The force of that aura that emanated from that base was definitely out of her expectations.

"Xuan Er, come back…!" Suddenly, the woman saw her own disciple being revealed out of the void. She was caught by surprise as well. But it was all too late.

"UNCLE LIN…! HURRY UP AND RUN…!" Xuan Er appeared in the void all of a sudden and shouted out towards the figure below.

"Huh…?" Lin Fan was stunned, as though he was hallucinating. He seemed to have caught sight of Xuan Er in the void above!

"Xuan Er…!"

"UNCLE LIN! HURRY UP AND RUN! IT'S DANGEROUS…!" Xuan Er was gripping her little fists and screaming out at Lin Fan, as though she was using up all her strength.

"Xuan Er, don't worry. I'll be fine. You just watch me from above. I'll definitely seek vengeance for you." Looking at that cute features on Xuan Er's face, Lin Fan rubbed his nose.

To think that such a cute little fox kid would die just like that. That was bloody heart-breaking!

To think that he would be in such depression that he would hallucinate about Xuan Er. But then again, Xuan Er loved him so much. She would definitely be watching silently from above.

Upon hearing these words, Xuan Er was stunned, "NO! UNCLE LIN! I'M NOT DEAD! NONE OF US ARE DEAD! PLEASE HURRY AND RUN…!"

"Not good! Run…!" Suddenly, the woman's face changed. She could feel a divine consciousness piercing through the Heavens and locking onto her! Flicking her hands hurriedly, she brought Xuan Er and the rest out of this place in an instant.

"AH…! MASTER…! UNCLE LIN…! DON'T DIE! I'LL DEFINITELY COME TO LOOK FOR YOU…!"

"Huh…?" Lin Fan stared blankly at the skies above.

He had just seen some people…

Even though Lin Fan's heart was overwhelmed with joy momentarily, he did not know what was going on. But one thing was for sure. Xuan Er wasn't dead…!

At the thought of this, Lin Fan chuckled to himself happily. But this smile didn't last long, as it was replaced by a flabbergasted look.

He had realized a big issue…

What the f*ck was Yours Truly supposed to do with this situation here then…?



Chapter 468: This Is All A Misunderstanding!

But honestly, Lin Fan was just completely stumped right now. Especially when he caught sight of that figure… That was an image that was etched deep into his heart.

At the same time, he knew who that was.

"F*cking mother*cker of f*cks! Yours Truly got played…!"

That’s right, Lin Fan was completely sober right now. He finally understood that he had been taken for a ride! Even though Xuan Er, that little brat, was one of those who had joined in to trick him, Lin Fan wouldn’t get angry at her.

After all, when he caught sight of that haughty figure beside her, he knew that face by heart.

"This sweet lord motherf*cking Empress! What did Yours Truly ever do to you? All Yours Truly did was to kill one of your bodies in the lower world, and completely whipped your other body to full nude exposure, that’s all! Because of that, you’re playing out Yours Truly now?!"

"Alright, fine! You’ve got me good and dandy this time around. But Yours Truly has you marked in his head! You better wipe that a*s of yours clean! If Yours Truly doesn’t f*ck you to tears, Yours Truly’s name will be Fan Lin instead!"

Lin Fan cursed into the skies.

At the same time, he was entirely exasperated by Xuan Er’s actions. That act of betrayal was beautiful and perfect! Even though he knew she shouldn’t have had a choice, she should have still given him some hints!

The Empress, who was trying to dodge that divine consciousness, heard Lin Fan’s chains of insults, her face turning green with a helpless rage.

"What has it got to do with me! No one told you to be silly enough to come holler in front of an ancient race base!"

Okay, but no matter what, this grudge had been laid down.

At the same time, the Empress was a haughty person herself. She snorted coldly in her heart, ‘I’d like to see just how you can f*ck me to tears! Hmph! Talk about it if you can even get out of this calamity right now!’

...

"Brash…I’ve really been too damned brash! Yours Truly has no choice but to acknowledge this myself! This is really a big damned f*ck sh*t trench I’m in at this moment! How am I supposed to run now?" Lin Fan stood there absolutely dumbfounded. In his 21 years of life, this was the first time he was betrayed this badly!

Even though the saying was ‘what goes around comes back around’, retribution was never that sweet if it were on oneself.

At the same time, didn’t this retribution come way too quickly? This was damn messed up!

No, he had got to get out of this safely today! At the same time, he would definitely have to watch his back from this point forth. This Empress had just fed him a sh*tload of sh*t from the dark. Who knew when the Namo Saint Emperor would pour some piss over him in the same manner one day?

Thinking back at how badly he had humiliated the strain of consciousness of the Namo Saint Emperor back in the Lower World, he was sure that this guy would definitely try his best to get back at Lin Fan himself.

BAM!

Suddenly, a figure bolted through the void and landed down massively.

"HUMAN! Were you the one who killed my centurion?" The fella who had appeared before Lin Fan wasn’t that towering. In fact, one could even say that he was stumpy. Like a kid, his face and skin was snow white and tender. However, that cold and frosty gaze pierced through one’s heart, striking fear directly within.

An expensive pitch-black fur coat covered his body. That only caused his appearance to look even more imposing.

Lin Fan looked at this kid before him as waves surged within his heart. He had not expected that formidable aura earlier on was emanated from this kid.

And by the looks of it, this kid was not even of the ancient race! This…!

"A-ah…! E-err…! This is all a misunderstanding!" Immediately, Lin Fan stretched out his hand and held up the body of that centurion. He then hurriedly took up the head he chopped off and tried to piece it back on his neck.

"Look! There! It’s done! This is really a misunderstanding!" Lin Fan pointed at that centurion whose body parts he had just put together, and laughed out heartily.

Thud.

Suddenly, the head that he placed on top of the centurion’s body dropped onto the floor. Rolling slowly, that head rolled before the young boy’s face.

"Err…!" Seeing this, Lin Fan could not help but display some awkwardness.

That young kid lowered his head, looking at that hideous looking head that had rolled to his feet, as though he was attracted to it.

Those unfazed purple pupils were silent and steady. However, there was a really sinister aura emitting from them.

"HAHA…!" Suddenly, the young boy burst out laughing maniacally! That voice was clear and deranged. Lin Fan could not make out for the sake of his life what this boy was laughing about!

‘Biggra!’

Lin Fan slapped his storage. Suddenly, a bunch of Biggras flew out into the skies and exploded into the midst of the ancient race army.

Pok! Pok!

A thick, dense mist covered the entire ancient race army.

Seizing the opportunity, Lin Fan turned heels and ran as far as he could.

Knowing that he was on the losing end right now, he definitely had to retreat!

Sprinting far ahead, Lin Fan turned around to check on that horrifying young boy. But to Lin Fan’s bewilderment, that young boy was still standing there laughing maniacally, without any intentions of giving chase!

The mist that was formed by Biggra was blocked away from the young boy by a barrier he had created, unable to permeate within.

But the surrounding ancient race army did not have it as easy as the boy. They had all sniffed up the mist produced by the Biggra entirely.

‘HUFF…HUFF…!’

The breathing of these ancient race tribesmen turned heavy. That initially malevolent faces of theirs were even creepier right now, as they glared around at their surrounding tribesmen with bloodshot eyes.

Looking at Lin Fan who had run off far into the distance, the young boy turned around. Dragging his heavy fur coat on the ground, he took step after step slowly towards the city. As for the frenzied ancient race tribesmen around him, he couldn’t be bothered in the least bit.

...

Lin Fan sprinted all the way, not knowing how far he had gone. At the same time, he turned into a sharp corner and hid with Stealth. For safety precautions, he had even hidden himself in a deep trench.

‘Bloody hell! I just can’t figure out what the hell is going on right now!’ As he waited patiently, he didn’t know if he had made it out of the dangers awaiting him yet.

He could tell that he was definitely no match for that weird looking kid just now. If the other party had struck out, he might not have died for sure, but it would definitely be impossible for him to escape.

A pity that the young boy was just laughing there insanely all the time. Lin Fan couldn’t help but wonder what that laughter was for.

…

There was a towering building within the ancient race base. The boy who was draped in the pitch-black fur coat stood at the top of it, looking down at the vast and boundless execution grounds below. He was expressionless, as though he was used to everything that was happening.

Within that gigantic execution ground, thousands of races were imprisoned, subjected to torment day and night.

The cruel roars of the ancient race tribesmen soldiers rang through the entire base.

This entire place was filled with hopelessness and fear.

There was a sort of power in this world, a power called despair.

Night time…

In that dark night, a pair of shimmering eyes pierced through the mud below and surveyed the surroundings.

‘Everything seems quiet. Seems like all should be fine now.’ Lin Fan had remained hidden for a really long time for the sake of his life. One had to be cowardly when the time called for it. Safety measures should also be taken seriously.

And just as Lin Fan was about to head out, a voice rang from close by.

‘Holy sh*t! Don’t tell me they’ve finally sobered up and decided to chase after me now!’

But, when Lin Fan checked out these people, he found that they were not from the ancient race. They were from all sorts of other races.

Seeing that, Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn’t the ancient race.

Lin Fan did not have the intentions to greet these races at all. After all, he was already f*cked once in the morning. That had caused him enough fear for now.

He should just wait silently for them to pass by.

Lin Fan remained hiddenly helplessly under the blank night sky. The only thing that remained was a single hole that allowed him to breathe through. He wasn’t bothered at all the conversation of these guys near him, only thinking about his path from here on forth.

But suddenly, something shocking happened.

A man with two horns on his head walked over to the spot Lin Fan was hiding at.

Pulling aside his robes, he whipped out his ugly little donger!

‘HOLY SH*T…! This guy is gonna take a piss!’ Lin Fan was stunned to the point of breaking down.

F*cking mother of lords…! If he didn’t come out, he was going to get a full piss facial!

...



Chapter 469: Righteous Party

This was a person from the Dragon World. He had grouped up together with a bunch of other people of different races but with the same goal: All of them wanted to resist the ancient race together. And, the reason for their appearance in this place was because they had caught wind of a certain piece of important news.

Upon thinking of the event that was about to unfold, this man was feeling pretty nervous. Because of that anxiety, he decided to take a whizz first.

They had looked around the area and determined that there shouldn’t be any ancient beasts around. Hence, they looked for a good location to prepare themselves beforehand.

...

Lin Fan stared at the man standing before him. If he didn’t come out right now, he was going to get an entire face of wee.

If a beautiful man that was the perfect combination of suaveness and talent such as himself were to be peed on the face by a man, this would be a big, big stain on the life of Yours Truly!

Just as Lin Fan was busy contemplating about these things, the expression on that man’s face tightened slightly. It was as though the floodgates were about to open, sending down the pouring water gushing downwards.

Lin Fan did not want to make any contact with these people initially for fear of courting more hassle. But the situation right now was evidently pushing him into a single direction! The only other way was for him to remain there and receive a flood of pee on his face.

And honestly, for Lin Fan to have to endure that entire rain of pee obediently was worse than someone taking his life.

Looking at how the man from the Dragon World before him was about to push his pee out successfully, Lin Fan jerked up from the ground with a massive thud.

"BUDDY! MERCY WITH YOUR DONGER PLEASE…!" With a loud holler, Lin Fan appeared right in the face of the man.

This man from the Dragon World, who was in a relaxed state and ready to relieve himself, suddenly jerked back in shock on seeing this person who had appeared right before him. In fact, his little donger shrunk down immensely in shock as well.

‘AHHH…!!!’ A high-pitched shriek rang out from the mouth of this man from the Dragon World.

It was one of the most pleasurable moments when one entered a state of peeing. However, the appearance of this random person had that man from the Dragon World in an absolute state of shock. In fact, he was so shaken that he was nearly frightened to death.

"Duan Ming, what happened?" Upon hearing the frantic cries of Duan Ming, a group of people hurried over. They were worried that something might have happened.

"Who are you!" The moment they caught sight of Lin Fan, all of them got worried.

In the Ancient Saint World, the ancient race tribesmen were not the only people one had to look out for. They had to be even more watchful against members of the other races.

After all, there were many who chose to backstab their own races in exchange for a position within the ancient race.

"Everyone, please do not get worked up and worry. I am by no means a bad guy!" Looking at all these cautious faces, Lin Fan had to explain hurriedly.

He didn’t want to be chopped down just because of any misunderstandings. Even though Yours Truly wasn’t afraid, there was no reason for one to court more trouble.

"What sort of a person are you? Why have you appeared here?" Just then, a middle-aged man from the wings race stood out and asked.

Lin Fan looked around at this group. There were more than 20 of them. There were members of various races, and some of them were from races that he had never ever seen before.

However, Lin Fan could tell that their auras were far from simple. It was evident that these guys had gone through the ritual of bloodshed.

Just a single glance over and Lin Fan could tell that the lowest cultivation state amongst them was earth celestial middle level at least.

"My name is Lin Fan, and I’m from the human race. I was hidden in this place, trying to look for lone ancient race tribesmen. But to think that this…brother would suddenly appear before my face! Hence, I decided to give him a greeting. But who knew that this fellow brother would begin to scream out, scaring me in the process as well!" Naturally, Lin Fan would not tell them that he was only hiding in the trench because he was being hunted down by the ancient race.

After all, that would cause him to lose face.

Upon hearing the words of Lin Fan, this wings race person checked him out for a while before finally letting down of his guard. He then waved down all the people who were following him.

"Everyone, relax. This is just a misunderstanding." The wings race member told the rest of them.

Those people from the group heaved a sigh of relief almost immediately. The closer they were to the ancient race base, the more nervous they became. Any sudden movements or changes in the environment had their nerves wrecked almost immediately.

"I am Xia Zehua, the leader of this small party." Xia Zehua stepped forth and introduced himself.

Now that the misunderstanding had been resolved, Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief as well and began conversing with this man from the wings race before him.

The bonfire crackled throughout…

Lin Fan had been conversing with Xia Zehua regarding issues of the Ancient Saint World the entire time. On the other hand, Duan Meng was seated nearby, looking at Lin Fan with a sorrowful look all the while.

He had truly been scared to death by Lin Fan earlier on. In fact, he could not even feel his little donger right now. It was as though his little donger had fainted from the shock earlier on.

He couldn’t even cry out in such a situation!

By this point, Xia Zehua had just discovered that Lin Fan was a human who had only ascended recently, yet he had the guts to stand up against the ancient race. He patted Lin Fan on the shoulder with the utmost respect, "Bro, that’s some good guts you’ve got there. It’s really admirable."

Through this short conversation, Lin Fan had discovered that this Xia Zehua was relatively easy to talk to. At the same time, his personality was a little boorish. These were great traits for Lin Fan to befriend him!

"No, no! Compared to Brother Xia, I’m nothing but an amateur!" Lin Fan waved his hands and replied humbly.

"Lin Fan, don’t be humble now. For anyone to be able to kill off a whole bunch of ancient race tribesmen singlehandedly…that courage is extremely rare to come by!" Xia Zehua continued.

Even though the time of their acquaintance was short, they were already chummy like brothers. This speed of progression was pretty shocking indeed.

"Brother Lin, it’s really dangerous for one to always fight solo. How about joining our Righteous Party here? If we join forces together, we’ll definitely be able to fight for the freedom of more races out there!" Xia Zehua invited.

"Huh…" Lin Fan was stumped.

He had not expected Xia Zehua to invite him to the party! And by the sounds of it alone, that party’s name sounded really gaudy!

‘Righteous Party.’

Why the hell did this name sound like that of a cannon fodder party? If this were a television series, this party would definitely not survive beyond three episodes!

"Brother Lin, we’ve received crucial news that Juewang Hou is severely injured, and is no longer as strong as before. Hence, our expedition forth is to get rid of Juewang Hou, so that we could release this district from their control! I, Xia Zehua, formally invite you to join our Righteous Party. Let us strive for the sake of obtaining freedom for the various races!" Suddenly, Xia Zehua stood up and looked at Lin Fan sternly.

Everyone sitting around turned their gazes towards Lin Fan as well. Even though they had not spoken any words at all, they had been listening in on the conversation of their leader.

To them, this human was definitely deserving of respect. Therefore, they acknowledged his qualifications to join their great family in fighting against the ancient race.

Lin Fan was completely flabbergasted right now, not knowing how he should reply.

Lin Fan had a good understanding of the sort of person he was.

Wherever he went, sh*t would hit the fan.

If he were to join this party, then the chances of this party being annihilated would definitely have a humongous increase.

"This…!" Lin Fan shrugged his head wanting to reject. However, when he looked at the look of anticipation in Xia Zehua’s eyes, he was absolutely helpless.

Eventually, Lin Fan stood up and flicked his robes, "Alright, for the sake of freedom, I’ll definitely have to lend my assistance. It’s time for these ancient race tribesmen to know how strong we truly are!"

Xia Zehua was glaring at Lin Fan furtively as well, fearing that this respectable human before him might reject his proposal. However, the moment he heard his Brother Lin agreeing to it, he burst out laughing in happiness.

"Alright! In order to celebrate and welcome Brother Lin’s joining of our party, as the party leader, I shall take out some of my valuable delicacies and we shall have a feast!" Waving his hands, a large amount of delicious food appeared on the ground.

"Power be to our leader…!"

"Long live our party leader…!"

Upon catching sight of the food, the party members started cheering excitedly.

"Heh…" Lin Fan laughed awkwardly within his heart. He didn’t even know if this were a good or bad thing that was happening right now.

Was this Brother Xia really silly or just faking it? To think that he would pull Lin Fan into the party after barely knowing him! It was quite the miracle for this party to survive this long with such a trusting leader as Xia Zehua.
