A reluctant Lin Fan glanced at the entrance of the tunnel before leaving right away in the next moment. Whether the people in the tunnel would come down or not, he couldn’t wait any longer. He had entered this danger zone to cultivate and rake in the points. An arduous cultivation had its benefits, and points required hard work. Only by laying a solid foundation for each realm could he easily march into the ranks of experts.
Lin Fan found a secluded spot and committed suicide. And after ten seconds, he was back among the living.
“Using Cruel Blood and Magic of the Seven Gods together caused their side-effects to superimpose with each other. It really hurts.” Lin Fan checked his body and felt much stronger at his peak. The flow of earth energy was steady and unimpeded, it was indeed pretty different from having sequelae.
Only at this moment did Lin Fan really take good luck at the Thousand Deep Cave. God-knows-how-many cultivators had ventured into this danger zone. The total wealth taken from this place would be really amazing, but many more people had met their maker here, having become victims of this place.
Everywhere Lin Fan looked, he found nothing but pitch-black rocks. Somewhere it was smooth, somewhere it was irregular, somewhere rocks were so sharp that their tips were exuding a cold gleam. Furthermore, dried up bloodstains could be found in some places as well. Obviously, some battles must have taken place at some unknown point of time.
But so much time had passed that there was no point in pursuing the exact time.
Lin Fan kept going deeper with no fixed aim. He was in an unfamiliar place, so all he could do was walk deeper into the darkness. And if he encountered any monster, he smashed them to the ground with his mace.
As he ventured deeper, he felt the vastness of the Thousand Deep Cave. I’m afraid even if I kept going for a month, I might not be able to reach its edge. Apparently, the Thousand Deep Cave is connected to every place, even to the Sunshine Sect. It seems it’s not just some cock and bull story, there must be some reason to it.
At this moment, some rustling in the front piqued his curiosity. He immediately hid behind a rock and sneaked a peek, only to see a herd of monsters moving.
These monsters bore some resemblance to cheetahs, but there were rock-like sharp bony protrusions on their backs.
“There seems to be no record of these monsters,” Lin Fan mumbled to himself. There was a strange energy in the Thousand Deep Cave. After having lived deep underground for many years, the bones of monsters seemed to have undergone a mutation. But there is no need to fret about it, as long as these monsters exist, I, Lin Fan, will be there.
“Hello there, my dear points!” Lin Fan welding the pan and the mace, walked out from behind the rock, shouting at the herd of monsters.
The monsters turned hostile upon hearing his provocative voice; their peaceful faces turned aggressive as they roared at Lin Fan.
…
Two days later, somewhere in the Thousand Deep Cave…
Mo Jingzhe furrowed his brow. He had come to the Thousand Deep Cave to find the guy who was more arrogant than him; he wanted to prove who was better. But after searching left and right for two days straight, he couldn’t find even his shadow. During his search, he met some people who had come here to train. Some of these people were a bit vicious and even coveted his wealth, but all of them were easily dealt with by him.
At this moment, he heard a voice in the distance.
“Junior Brother Yan, your swordsmanship is superb. This Flashing Lights has become even more glaring. You have already trained it to perfection.”
“Senior Brother, you flatter me. It’s far worse than Senior Brother’s.”
“Mm, very good. If everyone in my Sunshine Sect was as hardworking as Junior Brother, then it wouldn’t be difficult to destroy the Magnificent Flame Sect.”
There were several figures standing in the distance. Among whom, Yan Xu had used a single move to slay an Earth Star Border Stage Three monster.
This was Yan Xu, whose prestige in the sect was completely wiped clean by Lin Fan last time. Since then, Yan Xu had entered seclusion and was arduously cultivating after returning to the sect. His cultivation had already advanced to the fourth stage of the Earth Star Border Realm, and he had also trained his Mystic middle-class swordsmanship, Flashing Lights, to perfection.
And after having advanced his cultivation and training his swordsmanship to perfection, how could he forget that shame he suffered last time?
“What did you just say?” Right then, Mo Jingzhe rushed over like a great roc and stood erect on a rock, glaring at the four figures coldly. There was an unquenchable fire burning in his heart.
“What nonsense! Let me see whether you have what it takes to have the gal to say that you will destroy the Magnificent Flame Sect.”
Yan Xu and the others were taken aback by Mo Jingzhe’s appearance; they hadn’t expected for someone to appear here.
Yan Xu narrowed his eyes and sized Mo Jingzhe, “Are you related to the Magnificent Flame Sect?”
Mo Jingzhe, flicking his sleeves and raising his head in a proud manner, said with an assertive tone, “Yes, I am the Mo Family’s young master of the Magnificent Flame Sect’s Spirit Wind City, Mo Jingzhe.” Then he looked at the man behind Yan Xu and asked, “Was it you who said you will destroy the Magnificent Flame Sect?”
“How audacious!” Yan Xu rebuked sternly. This guy really doesn’t know how high the heavens are, he actually dares to question Senior Brother? He is simply seeking his own death.
However, before Yan Xu could take any action, a man in luxurious white clothes and with an impressive bearing stepped up. There was a playful smile on his lips. “The Thousand Deep Caves is really marvelous. Surprisingly, we met a Magnificent Flame Sect person after having been here for just half a month, and more importantly, someone who loves his sect. This is really interesting! But how dare you question us with a cultivation of just Earth Star Border Stage Six? I think there is something really wrong with your brain.”
Mo Jingzhe snorted in response. “The Sunshine Sect has slaughtered millions of Magnificent Flame Sect people. Even a thousand deaths would not absolve you of this crime. Even if you are the fiercest of beasts, I, Mo Jingzhe, am not afraid of you.”
Yan Xu immediately said, “Senior Brother Luo, let me teach this ignorant guy a lesson.”
Luo Zhengyi shook his head. “Junior Brother, you might be strong, but you aren’t his opponent.” Then he looked at the junior brother next to him. “Junior Zhang, go and check whether this guy really has what it takes to be so daring.”
“Yes, Senior Brother.” Zhang Zhenhu was just like his name suggested; he was tall and had a powerful bearing. He looked at Mo Jingzhe with a cruel smile on his lips. “I have killed a lot of people of the Magnificent Flame Sect, far more than ten thousand people.”
Mo Jingzhe’s eyes glowed with intense killing intent while his earth energy skyrocketed. “An Earth Star Border Stage Five idiot dares to be so arrogant? You are seeking your own doom.”
Boom!
Yan Xu, watching the scene in front of him, couldn’t help but exclaim, “The pressure released by Senior Brother when he made his move is simply extraordinary. This is a sign of the World Tiger Howl Skill having reached grand completion.”
The man in yellow, who had not spoken all the while, finally spoke, “Junior Brother Yan, the World Tiger Howl Skill is an inheritance skill of the Royal Beast Family, the Purple Wing Lightning Tigers. Senior Brother Zhang can only practice it because he is half man and half beast. Even if he is only in the fifth stage of the Earth Star Border Realm, he isn’t afraid to face an Earth Star Border Stage Six expert.”
Bang!
Just as the man in yellow finished speaking, they saw the man of the hour, their Senior Brother Zhang, coughing blood, having been sent flying with just a palm. His left arm was broken and was bleeding profusely.
“You’re in way over your head. I, Mo Jingzhe, have trained the Divine Art of Startling Dragons to grand completion. My every move makes a dragon roar resound throughout the heavens. It’s invincible. A kitty like you dares to be arrogant before me? I broke your arm to let you know that the people of the Magnificent Flame Sect are not people you can kill.” Mo Jingzhe snorted in disdain. Two golden dragons were circling around him, roaring again and again. The entire scene painted Mo Jingzhe as an emperor of the world.
At the sixth stage of the Earth Star Border Realm, Mo Jingzhe’s earth energy was as immense as the sea. Metamorphosing his earth energy into dragons was a piece of cake for him. Furthermore, these two dragons were highly lethal.
When Yan Xu and the others saw this, they were baffled; they could not believe their eyes. Their Senior Brother Zhang was very strong. His cultivation might be a level lower than his opponent’s, but with his half-man half-beast bloodline, it was impossible for him to lose so quickly.
“Do you wanna die?” Luo Zhengyi had not expected this. His body started surging with energy as he charged straight at Mo Jingzhe with his fists clenched. He was so fast that he left a vacuum in his wake, causing sonic booms again and again. And in the next moment, he was right in front of Mo Jingzhe, sending a powerful punch straight at him.
“So strong! So this is Senior Brother Luo’s Sonic Punch that can cause sonic booms after training it to perfection.” Yan Xu was left with a slacked jaw at this sight. He was totally dumbfounded. He was totally shocked by his senior brothers’ strength.
“Dragon Guard.” There was little to no change in Mo Jingzhe’s expression, but his inter-linked and ever-changing palms covered his entire body, forming an earth energy shield.
Zhang Zhenhu, whose arm was broken by Mo Jingzhe, had extraordinary recovery ability because of his half-man half-beast bloodline. The wounds on his arm had almost healed instantly. Now, a ruthless look covered his face.
“Attack him together, let’s beat him to his death.”
In an instant, Zhang Zhenhu, Yan Xu, and the man in yellow started attacking.
Flashing Lights!
World Tiger Roar!
Heaven and Earth Palm!
Boom!
Everyone unleashed their impressive earth energy. Mo Jingzhe’s earth energy might be vigorous, but he couldn’t stand their joint attack. Be that as it may, Mo Jingzhe didn’t flinch.
…
Lin Fan had been killing for two days and two nights straight. He had become weary of it, but he was also happy and content. He had envisioned a fixed target for the points, so he would never waste a minute before achieving it.
Suddenly, he raised his head and looked into the distance, muttering to himself, “Which idiot is making so much noise?”
Even so, he kept advancing straight toward the distance to see whose work it was.
Bang!
Luo Zhengyi broke Mo Jingzhe’s defense and sent him crashing into a rock. Mo Jingzhe immediately coughed a mouthful of blood. But instead of taking care of his injuries, he looked at the man in yellow with disdain and said, “You are really despicable.”
He wasn’t defeated by Luo Zhengyi. It was the man in yellow who had actually played a trick; God knows what he used, but it had blinded Mo Jingzhe.
A fight between masters is all about real muscles and power. How can there be any despicable tricks involved?
Yan Xu broke into an arrogant laugh at the sight of Mo Jingzhe lying on the ground, coughing blood. “Hmph, what bullshit, my Senior Brother Luo broke your earth energy shield with a punch and injured you, and now you are making excuses? You’re simply disgraceful.”
Mo Jingzhe glared at Yan Xu in anger and retorted, “I, Mo Jingzhe, would gladly accept a defeat if I am defeated, but you guys cheated. I won’t accept it.”
Right at this moment, Luo Zhengyi looked in one direction and shouted, “Who’s there? Come out.”
Lin Fan had just arrived at the scene and had not hidden himself. As such, he was immediately discovered. He had no choice but to walk out. But when he saw everyone, he was completely shocked.
“Well, well, well, if it isn’t the genius Mo Jingzhe!”
Mo Jingzhe, who was about to cough up blood again, swallowed it back after hearing this voice and seeing Lin Fan’s face. “It’s you. I have been looking for you for two days and two nights.”
Yan Xu’s face turned hideous at the sight of Lin Fan. He shouted at Lin Fan in anger, “Do you still remember me? The humiliation you gave me still haunts me like a nightmare. I have wanted to kill you since then. But who would have thought that you would come knocking on our door? Today, I will kill you and wash away my shame with your blood.”
Lin Fan turned to Yan Xu and asked with a weird look on his face, “Who are you?”
Puff! Yan Xu had barely suppressed his blood and energy, which had been disturbed by Mo Jingzhe’s attack, but now, after listening to these three words, he couldn’t suppress it anymore. He immediately spurted a mouthful of blood.
Mo Jingzhe was rendered speechless by this sight. He gawked at Lin Fan in disbelief. So strong! He made him cough up blood with just a sentence.
At this moment, Lin Fan had all his attention. This guy is really capable!
