Chapter 682: Blood Coloured Mountains
“To think that even the Scarlet Moon Blood Demon Sect would send members down. Just what sort of a secret is being hidden in this place for it to be able to attract these many powerful beings?” Reverend Shakya could not get it at all. Could there be some sort of a heaven revolting treasure that had appeared within this simple and plain looking secret ground?
“What’s up with this Scarlet Moon Blood Demon Sect?” Lin Fan asked.
There were way too many powerhouses within the Ancient Saint World. Other than a special few, he didn’t know about all the others.
“This Scarlet Moon Blood Demon Sect is extremely strong. Rumors have it that the Grandmaster of the sect isn’t even a being of the thousands of races. In fact, he’s a demon of the Scarlet Moon Abyss. He is extremely ferocious, and has cruel methods. The moment he appears, it is a guaranteed bloodbath that no one can possibly stand up to at all.” Reverend Shakya explained.
“Have you seen him before?” Look at how serious Reverend Shakya was looking right now, Lin Fan asked him in reverse.
“Nopes. But I’ve heard about him from others.” Reverend Shakya replied.
“Stop believing in the rumors spread out by others that you haven’t confirmed with your own eyes. Can’t you have some backbone of your own?” Lin Fan was truly exasperated by this bald monk right now.
“Benefactor, I wonder if you’ve ever heard of a saying.” Reverend Shakya took in a deep breath. Right now, he was at Lin Fan’s behest due to that favor he required of him. Hence, he had to bear with it.
“What saying?”
“If you don’t listen to the wise words of the elderly, you’re bound to suffer losses.” Reverend Shakya said.
“Take a hike!” Lin Fan did not want to argue with this bald monk any further. He looked up ahead at the distance. There was some commotion that had attracted two crowds to it. If there were truly some sort of a treasure up ahead, these wouldn’t be the only guys who they would be sending here. After all, these guys are probably just cannon fodder to scout out the way.
“Benefactor, the connate Element of Wood is truly in that direction. Are you really not going to head there?” Reverend Shakya asked.
“Nopes, not going.” How could Lin Fan do as this bald monk wished? Just because he had slipped up earlier on, this bald monk had already managed to successfully act once. This was something Lin Fan could not tolerate at all.
Lin Fan looked over at the bald monk. He realized that not only was this bald monk not pained over that fact, he was, in fact, looking pretty happy!
“Since that’s the case, benefactor, please continue to wreak havoc and attract more sinners over. Let’s split them up 50-50. How about that?” Reverend Shakya suggested gleefully.
The stronger the living beings that he reformed, the greater the faith collected from them would be.
Those two Ancient race beings who had just been reformed, for example, weren’t weak at all. Compared to those living beings in his Buddha’s Land Paradise, they were even slightly stronger.
It was only after the diligent efforts of many years that Reverend Shakya had managed to raise his Paradise to a Buddha’s Land state.
However, given the type of living beings within his Paradise right now, there was definitely no chance of him being able to raise the Buddha’s Land into Buddha’s World in this lifetime.
“Wreak your mother! We’ve wrecked this place up so badly just now, and there were only these few fellas who had come by. Move on ahead and head deeper!” Lin Fan replied.
“Yes, your words make sense, benefactor.” The moment Reverend Shakya heard this, his eyelids opened up wide. That was right! Each time they wrecked a single place, they should change another place! If they were to stay in the same spot, who in the world would come by?
Lin Fan did not reply Reverend Shakya any longer as he flew in the direction up ahead.
“Essence Spirit Separation.”
At this moment, Lin Fan silently allowed his Essence Spirit to enter Stealth mode before leaving his body and heading forth towards the place where the connate Element of Wood was.
By now, Lin Fan was completely trusting of the words of Reverend Shakya. Even though he did not say so on the surface, he thought so in his heart.
However, even if that were the case, Lin Fan could not possibly head there himself. Hence, he allowed his Essence Spirit to head over to suppress the connate Element of Wood and collect it first.
“Benefactor, I felt a breeze blowing by me.” Reverend Shakya suddenly came to a halt and announced with a puzzled look on his face.
“You must have sensed wrongly.” Bloody hell! Did this bald monk have some sort of a radar or sht like that? To think that he could even sense his Essence Spirit under Stealth mode! This was truly fckamoly holy dogamoly!
Right now, Lin Fan’s heart was hurting really badly. He had wanted to cause a ruckus so that a group of huge BOSSES would appear, and this bald monk would be scared off. By then, things would be much easier.
However, it was a pity that everyone who had arrived was as weak as a chicken. They were just weaklings that could be overwhelmed with a single palm flip, offering no threat at all.
Secret grounds…
“Seems like some great battle has happened here earlier on.” Emperor Nan Gong looked at the derelict state of the place before him and commented with a stern expression.
“I garner that those two who had entered this place must have gotten into some sort of a brawl or something. But, that’s good as well. With them as the frontline, we can just sit back and reap the rewards later on.” Xing Wangong laughed out. However, he was still watching Mu Manfeng, who was beside Emperor Nan Gong, warily.
He had not expected this Mu Manfeng to be this strong earlier on outside. To think that he would have suppressed Yu Liutian with such absolute force!
That sort of power that he held was causing them to grow wary of him. If they were to truly find some sort of treasure within this place, it was hard to say that Mu Manfeng would not slaughter them and steal the treasure for himself.
Initially, the three of them had wanted to work together to slay Mu Manfeng. However, based on the situation right now, it seemed as though Emperor Nan Gong had already made up his mind to stick with Mu Manfeng all the way to the end.
Even if the three of them were to join up, it was hard to say that Emperor Nan Gong might or might not choose to side with Mu Manfeng instead and turn against them. By then, things would be pretty disastrous.
Therefore, the three of them merely exchanged glances while harboring intents of their own.
For Yu Liutian, it was especially the case. He could not have imagined himself losing at all. Furthermore, it was a downright loss.
The moment that damned fella had stomped him right under his feet, Yu Liutian swore to god that he would have this guy dead without any burial at all.
“Let us watch out.” Emperor Nan Gong said as the five men party headed forth.
…
“Benefactor, look up ahead. To think that under the nourishment of this dense Qi of the Wood Spirits here, even the ground itself has turned into essence.” Reverend Shakya saw a plot of ground trembling up ahead and could not help but comment out. The pieces of rock that were as huge as mountains were starting to group up into a stone giant.
“The aura of the connate Element of Wood in this place is really thick indeed. It’s natural that all of these living beings would grow to a decent cultivation state under the nourishment of this aura.” Lin Fan slapped out with his palm, sending this gigantic stone giant into his Paradise immediately.
“Benefactor, why did you strike out without saying anything at all? This poor monk here was trying to reform it!” Reverend Shakya’s heart felt as though it was jabbed through once more. To think that he would be slower by a step once again.
“No one asked you to be slower than me.” Lin Fan chuckled out.
“There’s one more up ahead! Benefactor, please do not snatch from this poor monk here!” Just as Reverend Shakya’s heart was wrenching over it, he caught sight of another stone spirit up ahead. He then bolted up forth and deployed his skill impatiently, reforming that stone spirit immediately as though someone was fighting with him over it.
“Holy f*ck! This guy wouldn’t even let a Divine celestial level 1 living being off! The bald monk is the bald monk indeed. Wherever he passes, nothing is left alive.” Lin Fan sighed out.
Shing!
Suddenly, Lin Fan felt yet another surge of energy vibrating. This force was sinister and awfully strong.
“Benefactor, check out those five blood colored mountains!” Reverend Shakya exclaimed out in shock.
“Yours Truly has seen them. Don’t make a fuss out of nothing.” Lin Fan was exasperated right now. Those five mountains were bloody big! It wasn’t as though Yours Truly was blind or anything!
“This is the aura! Back when we were outside, this poor monk here had sensed a malicious aura. This is it!” Reverend Shakya’s expression could not help but stern up.
“Benefactor, we had better not head over. The aura over there is really suspicious.” Reverend Shakya had a sharp innate instinct towards all sorts of calamity and disasters.
This was the type of senses that one would only obtain after they reached the highest state of Buddhism.
“You can choose to leave this place. However, Yours Truly is going to head there and check it out.” How could Lin Fan give this chance up? Looking at how nervous this bald monk was, Lin Fan was elated in his heart. It’d be for the best if this bald monk knew of the difficulties ahead and gave up on his own.
Furthermore, even if this bald monk weren’t here, Lin Fan would have headed up nevertheless. After all, if one were to find a really suspicious place upon entering a secret ground, there was no reason not to check it out at all.
Chapter 683: We’ll Split It 50-50!
“Benefactor, watch out. These five blood colored mountains possess the power to bewitch one’s heart.” As they got closer to the five blood colored mountains, Reverend Shakya frowned. His eyes shone with a sharp glint that sent a Buddhist light out to suppress the bewitching magic.
“Just how in the world did something like this form? The mysterious runic symbols on these five blood colored mountains…” Reverend Shakya was stern right now as his mind spun furiously.
Suddenly, he exclaimed out, “Ah! I remember now! This is the Great Devouring Formation!”
“Great Devouring Formation?” After reading intensively within the library of the Cloud Sect, Lin Fan’s knowledge of the world was as vast as the oceans right now. A slight whir of his brain, and he knew of everything immediately.
“Seems like there’s some powerful being that’s trying to absorb the source of this connate secret ground. However, since he’s choosing to remain in this secret ground where the connate Element of Wood lies, he must be fraught with injuries for sure.” Lin Fan continued.
“That’s right. The Great Devouring Formation is a heaven-defying formation. Even though it has no offensive capabilities of its own, the other effects are unusually scary. However, given the state of the situation right now, it seems as though the formation has stopped functioning for now. Something must have happened in between.”
“Let’s head in and check it out.” Without any hesitation, Lin Fan walked towards the five blood colored mountains.
Reverend Shakya grew wary. Everything seemed way too sinister.
If it were just the Great Devouring Formation alone, then it wouldn’t amount to anything much. However, the most critical point was the fact that the Great Devouring Formation had stopped functioning all of a sudden. This only left them with 2 possibilities.
Either the powerful being who was filled with injuries had recovered from it entirely, or that he was dead.
However, to be able to attract this many other powerful beings to this area, there must be something more than what was apparent on the surface here.
“Benefactor, this Great Devouring Formation has already been crafted into a treasure. You can reap it in later, benefactor.” Reverend Shakya remarked.
“Then, why aren’t you doing so?” Lin Fan had not expected this bald monk to be this kind to let up this treasure right before him for Lin Fan.
“This poor monk is someone who practices Buddhism. Hence, this poor monk has no need for items as such that would defy the natural orders of the world.” Reverend Shakya replied.
“Bald monk. So, you’re trying to say that Yours Truly here is evil?” Lin Fan was triggered immediately. This bald monk was just taking an indirect jab at him!
“Benefactor, this poor monk here did not say that. You’re the one who confessed to it yourself.” Reverend Shakya immediately denied that accusation.
Lin Fan, “…”
…
At this moment, a formidable force was remaining hidden in the depths of the void.
“Let them check out the state of the place first.”
“To think that the Gleaming Blood Lord who was gravely injured a thousand years ago would be hiding here and recuperating his wounds. If not for the recent phenomenon happening in the sky, who would have guessed that the notoriously infamous Gleaming Blood Lord would be hiding in such a small little secret ground.”
“Now that the Great Devouring Formation has stopped functioning, it’s only right to guess that the Gleaming Blood Lord must have fallen here. However, no matter what, the Gleaming Blood Lord was an abnormally powerful being. Even if he were dead, he wouldn’t have allowed just anybody to get his treasures that easily as well.”
“We’ll let those two fellas give it a shot first. Even if they manage to luck out and obtain the treasure of the Gleaming Blood Lord, we can just surround and kill them later on. Eventually, the treasure shall belong to us.”
At this moment, Lin Fan and Reverend Shakya had turned into the cannon fodder for those powerhouses out there.
“Benefactor, this poor monk senses that there’s something wrong. The void seem to be hiding all sorts of powerhouses.” Reverend Shakya could feel his heart thumping.
“Yes, I know. By the looks of it, they’re waiting for us to go and be the sacrifices for slaughter.” Lin Fan replied.
“Then, what should we do?” Reverend Shakya seemed a little worried now.
“Bald monk, I’m not going to sham you this time around. Just follow along with my instructions later on.” The situation right now was indeed getting cumbersome. If it were him alone, then it wouldn’t matter as much. However, the issue was that this bald monk was still following him all the way. If things were to go on as such, the bald monk might even accidentally die in Lin Fan’s hands.
Even though he was a little annoying here and there, he wasn’t bad by nature. And most importantly, he had to learn that Purification skill still! Damn! If this bald monk were to die just like that, where was he supposed to go and learn it from?
“Alright.” Reverend Shakya nodded his head. At this moment, he couldn’t continue to put on an act. After all, things weren’t looking all that good right now. If he failed in his flaunting, he might end up being fodder instead.
Even though he did not know how many powerhouses were hidden within the void right now, if he were to continue acting, he might have his shit walloped out of him entirely.
…
“HAHA! To think that we would be this lucky to gain the treasures here!”
“We’re rich now! Not only are there countless of pills, there’s even a heaven revolting skill!”
“Go! Hurry up and go! I’ve got a skill that can break through the void, and with it, we can get out of the secret grounds directly!”
Suddenly, the voices of Lin Fan and Reverend Shakya rang out from the five blood colored mountains. At the same time, Reverend Shakya was sneakily making his way out to the fringes of the five blood coloured mountains. Within his fingers, a bright Buddhist light shone that turned into thin little threads, interlinking the five blood coloured mountains together.
This was the sealing technique used by the Buddha himself. As the saying went, a single flower was equivalent to a world of its own. Linking these five blood colored mountains together, Reverend Shakya seemed to be forming a small little world of his own.
At this moment, the guys hidden in the void could no longer hold themselves back after hearing the voices.
“To think that they would have managed to find the treasures!”
“Let’s go, hurry up and go in! If we let them escape with it, we’ll really be making great losses!”
“Alright, in!”
Instantly, a myriad of light beams streaked out of the void, darting towards the five blood colored mountains.
However, some powerful beings still held their ground.
“There’s something odd with this affair. The treasure of the Gleaming Blood Lord isn’t something to be obtained this easily.”
The Gleaming Blood Lord had trodden over the Ancient Saint World for a long time. He had a violent and odd temperament. There was no way he could ever give anyone benefits originating from him.
Once upon a time, there was a legend that the Gleaming Blood Lord had created a lair within the Ancient Saint World awaiting those with affinity.
With that, countless beings of the thousands of races began searching for that lair. Somehow, the location of that lair was leaked out for some unknown reason, leading to an endless amount of beings of the thousands of races gushing forth to snatch the treasures.
At the very end, all of those who came forth ended up dead. It was only at the last moment of it all that everyone realized that it was a trap set forth by the Gleaming Blood Lord.
He was actually cultivating a skill that required all these beings as a sacrifice.
“Eh? Where have they gone to?”
“What’s going on? Could they have left this place already?”
At this moment, a group of powerful beings that were hidden within the void appeared at the five blood colored mountains.
“Bald monk, sealing formation!” At this moment, Lin Fan came out of the five blood colored mountains from his Stealth mode.
“Alright!” Reverend Shakya’s eyebrows twitched as his hands formed a series of Buddha hand seals.
Instantly, the entire five blood colored mountains were surrounded by a barrier of Buddhist light, sealing everything within.
“This is bad! We’ve been tricked!”
The moment the powerful beings at the five blood colored mountains sensed this force, they were astonished.
“Benefactor, what should we do now?” Reverend Shakya was getting a little excited now. He felt as though he had just achieved something really big.
Some of those powerful beings were even stronger than himself! If he had been targeted by them, he would have been dead meat for sure.
“Whack the dogs within of course. Today, Yours Truly is in a good mood. We’ll split this 50-50 then!” Lin Fan was exhilarated right now. Shifting his body nimbly, billions of palm strikes were slammed out into the barrier instantly.
Every single palm strike turned into a Dragon of Biggra, surging straight into the five blood colored mountains.
Lin Fan had noticed this from the very beginning. The cultivation states of these guys weren’t weak at all.
Divine celestial level 6.
Divine celestial level 7.
Divine celestial level 8.
For Lin Fan, this was going to be a huge bang for his buck!
Chapter 684: Scammed To Death.
“To think you would be here too, Demon-Slaying Sword Lord.”
“Hmph. Old Master Raging Winds, if YOU can be here, why can’t I as well?”
Amidst these five blood colored mountains, a bunch of powerful beings were all glaring at one another. They then swept the surroundings. To think that there would be so many powerful beings within this place that knew one another. In fact, some of them even had blood feuds with the others.
“Demon-Slaying Sword Lord, prepare to receive death! In order to cultivate that Peerless Indestructible Sword Will of yours, you massacred members of my sect while I wasn’t around!” An old man was flaring up with rage. This was especially the case when he caught sight of Demon-Slaying Sword Lord. The rage in his heart was blazing out of control.
“Old Master Ru Yi, do you think that I would be afraid of you?” Demon-Slaying Sword Lord looked over at Old Master Ru Yi as his Sword Will soared intently. It seemed like he could strike out at any moment.
“Alright, all of you, stop arguing. To think that we would have fallen into a trap. Seems like there’s a powerful being of the Buddha race that has attacked us. Using the five blood colored mountains as a basis, he has constructed a small world within this place. If you guys have any grudges among yourselves, you can jolly well settle it after we get out of this place.” The person who spoke was an elderly man with three heads.
The skill cultivated by this man with three heads was a mysterious one that could convert a single Qi to three corpses.
“Old Master Triple Corpse, to think that you would be able to cultivate that skill of yours to such an incomparable state. I don’t suppose that it’ll be long before you can transform it to the end, fusing all Eight Realms of yours together to reach the Eternal God state.”
The prowess of Old Master Triple Corpse was strong. Even amongst the group of people, he was someone with quite the reputation. As such, the untamed group began to quieten down. At this moment, none of them wanted to offend Old Master Triple Corpse at all.
“Did you guys catch sight of any Ancient race beings? If there are any Ancient race beings, we can kill them first. Then, we’ll break out of this small world and slaughter those two fellas outside.” Old Master Triple Corpse commented.
The crowd looked around at one another.
“There are no Ancient race beings.”
“That’s strange. Usually, when there’s a situation in the secret grounds, the Ancient race beings would normally breach this place brazenly. Why hadn’t a single one of them appeared just yet?”
“On the way in just now, I caught sight of those two fellas killing two Ancient race beings. However, the cultivation state of those two Ancient race beings was way too weak. They didn’t seem like they were here to snatch the treasures. They seemed more like scouts.”
“Alright. Since that’s the case, we’ll just break down this small world then. The being of the Buddha race who had set up this place may be pretty decent in strength. However, I doubt that he can hold out for this long.”
“Alright.”
…
“Benefactor, are we truly not going to get out of this place? This poor monk’s little world here isn’t going to last for much longer.” Reverend Shakya’s forehead was dripping with huge beads of sweat as he sensed the berserk energy within the little world of his.
“It’s alright. Just let my Brother Biggra go have his run.” Lin Fan replied indifferently before looking at the void around him.
“Yours Truly is the Motherf*cking Human King, Lin Fan! It doesn’t matter what God, demon, or sh*t you are, if you dare to act brazenly before Yours Truly, then you don’t have any rights to complain that Yours Truly isn’t going to show you mercy later on.” Lin Fan did not know how many more people were still watching this right now.
However, he wasn’t too bothered about these powerful beings here.
Even though the powerful beings within the void were really displeased at what the Motherf*cking Human King had just said, none of them stood out.
When faced with changing tides, it was important to maintain one’s composure and stay firm.
Lin Fan looked at the innumerable people within the little world that were trying to break it down and grinned.
“Haha! This little world is already at its breaking point. However, I’ve got to admit that the skills of the Buddha race are indeed really incredible. This is especially the case for that One Flower One World. That is even more mysterious than anything else. However, thankfully, this being of the Buddha race is yet to master that mysterious skill. Otherwise, things would truly be disastrous here.” Demon-Slaying Sword Lord laughed coldly.
He had once fought with a powerful being from the Buddha race. Seeing that One Flower One World, he was truly fretting over it. If not for the fact that his Peerless Indestructible Sword Will was mastered by then, he might have been truly trapped within for all eternity.
“Demon-Slaying Sword Lord! Once we’re out of this, I’m definitely challenging you to a death duel!” Old Master Ru Yi hollered out in rage.
“Sure! I’m all down for it! At the same time, I’ll acquire your essence, spirit, and vitality to use them to cultivate yet another skill!” Demon-Slaying Sword Lord laughed wildly.
“This isn’t good. Aren’t you guys feeling something weird?”
At this moment, someone suddenly yelped out. He had suddenly realized that a mysterious energy was infiltrating his body.
“What’s weird? The little world is about to break down anyways. Once I’m out, I’ll definitely dice those two fellas up into pieces!”
…
“Old Master Triple Corpse, what are you doing? Why’s that hand of yours touching mine?”
“Demon-Slaying Sword Lord, what are you trying to do? Don’t think that you can come and tease me just because you think that I’m not your match!”
“You b*stard! Where do you think you’re placing your hands?”
“Old Master Ru Yi, you…!”
At this moment, something was going on within the little world.
The Qi of Biggra had already erupted forth with its might. Under the Qi of Biggra, all of the expressions on the faces of these powerful beings were changing. They were blushing red right now, and those hawk-like covetous eyes of theirs were all gaining an insane glint to them now. Each of their eyes were bloodshot, as though their bodies were filled with an infinite amount of energy.
“Benefactor, what’s going on right now?” Reverend Shakya knew everything that was happening within his little world at the back of his palms. However, the expression on his face was extremely strange right now.
Everything that was happening within the little world was far beyond Reverend Shakya’s imagination right now! How could all of these powerful beings be doing something as such? Even though he did not know exactly what was going on, he knew that this must have something to do with Lin Fan.
“To think that the effects have seeped in this quickly. Alright, take down the little world now. An image as such should be enjoyed with the masses.” Lin Fan chuckled out.
“Amitabha! This little world of this poor monk here is used to suppress and take down enemies within! How can I let something as such happen?” Reverend Shakya immediately took down his little world. Placing his palms together, he started chanting prayers in disbelief.
“What’s that being of the Buddha race trying to do? Why did he take down the little world?”
“I’ve got no idea. However, even if he didn’t take it down manually, he wouldn’t have been able to hold out for much longer as well.”
“What’s going on?! Why is Demon-Slaying Sword Lord pressing down on the body of Old Master Ru Yi?”
“T-this…!”
At this moment, the powerful beings within the void who were catching sight of this scene were utterly stumped at the sight that they were welcomed to. They could not believe everything they were witnessing right now.
To think that these powerful beings would be committing such unbelievable acts!
This was especially the case for that violent Demon-Slaying Sword Lord! To think that his face would be flooded red as he tore at Old Master Ru Yi’s clothes!
However, they knew that Old Master Ru Yi had a deep grudge with Demon-Slaying Sword Lord!
Why did the two of them look so compatible in this situation right now?
“Bald monk, I’ve said that we can split them 50-50. Here, you can go and reform them now.” Lin Fan smiled out. He was long used to this kind of situation by now.
However, for Reverend Shakya, it was something beyond his wildest dreams. If he weren’t watching this right now, he would have found it extremely hard to believe as well.
“Looking at the state they’re in right now…it’s pretty hard for this poor monk to go at them as such!” Reverend Shakya turned his head around and said, unable to bear watching the scene directly.
“Since that’s the case, then Yours Truly is going to have to take them all then…” There were so many experience points right here waiting for him. To give the bald monk half of them was a decision that Lin Fan had thought for a long time about.
But, since this bald monk didn’t want it, Lin Fan could not have asked for anything more.
“Ah! Benefactor, please hold on! As the saying goes, if I don’t enter hell, who would? They have committed such inhumane audacities. Even if this poor monk finds it hard to take them in, I’ve got to do it!” The moment Reverend Shakya heard that Lin Fan was going to kill all of them, his heart throbbed. How could he bear to let them go like this?
At a moment as such, even if he couldn’t do it, he had to!
Being able to reform powerful beings like these was something that Reverend Shakya had been hoping for a long time now!
“You dirty bald monk!”
Lin Fan knew that this guy clearly wanted it. Yet, he acted as though he didn’t! Tsk!
Translator’s Thoughts
Lam_
Alright, so I missed out on explaining One Flower, One World in the previous TL notes. My bad! So, it’s a state of Buddhism where back in the past, the Shakyamuni Buddha actually reached an ultimate state of enlightenment where he could see through the worlds within every single leaf and flower itself. It’s very to properly explain such concepts without prodding on some toes especially with the fact that I’m probably not qualified to give a thorough explanation. But also, flowers and lotuses have a very symbolic meaning in the context of Buddhism. Cheers!
Chapter 685: Unable To Bear Leaving Lin Fan.
“Benefactor, one should not always speak out their insights.”
Just as Lin Fan was prepared to strike out, Reverend Shakya was staring intently at Lin Fan with a serious look on his face as he said out calmly.
‘Your mother! Indeed, you’re a dirty bald monk! You’re so dirty that you’re even admitting to it yourself now!’ Lin Fan was entirely helpless in his heart right now. Wow, it didn’t even make any sense for this bald monk to live as long as he had by now!
To think that he would be this dirty! Goodness, he could almost compete with Yours Truly already!
As the saying went, a scoundrel could find his way around the world.
Actually, Lin Fan had really high expectations for this bald monk. As long as he didn’t die because of his bragging acts, Lin Fan was sure that this person could almost definitely turn into an accomplished powerful being in the future.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Fan swiveled like a dragon. Darting into the clouds, he slammed down with his palm, directing it at the five blood colored mountains where the masses were engaging in an unsightly act.
This mighty force caused the void to crumble under its pressure. Those five stretched out fingers of his were akin to a heaven piercing claw that bore immense power within every single finger.
All of these powerful beings who were intoxicated by Biggra were immersed within their own world, losing every bit of sense towards the outside world entirely.
Under the force of Lin Fan’s massive power, those powerful beings began to explode apart as their bodies turned into a mess of blood and flesh.
At the moment of their explosion, countless savage screams lashed out.
“DAMN IT! WHO IS IT! JUST WHO IN THE WORLD IS IT?”
“REINCARNATION OF FLESH AND BLOOD!”
“THIS FELLA’S KILLING US ON THE SNEAK! WE’LL KILL HIM!”
All of these pieces of flesh and blood possessed an immense amount of power to them, and the very consciousness of their owners. A single thought was enough to have them send out thousands of skills ripping apart everything.
“So disobedient even at your deaths!” Lin Fan wasn’t hurried in the least bit. Flipping his hand around, he repressed every single one of those incoming skills.
Boom! Crackle! Crack!
As these pieces of flesh and meat were sucked into Lin Fan’s Paradise, they were refined immediately.
‘Ding…Congratulations on killing Divine celestial level 7, All to One state Demon-Slaying Sword Lord.’
‘Ding…Experience Points +700,000’
‘Ding…Congratulations on killing Divine celestial level 7, All to One state Old Master Ru Yi.’
‘Ding…Experience Points +690,000’
‘Ding…Congratulations on killing Divine celestial level 8, Universal Elixir state Old Master Triple Corpse.’
‘Ding…Experience Points +800,000’
…
The notifications from the system were endless as Lin Fan’s experience points skyrocketed up. Just like that, dozens of powerful beings were killed by Lin Fan. Hence, the experience points received were akin to a vast ocean.
‘Ding…Congratulations on leveling up.’
‘Ding…Cultivation State: Divine celestial level 7, All to One state.’
In the blink of an eye, Lin Fan’s mind shifted. His Paradise vibrated over it. All of the skills that he had ever cultivated shot out instantly and floated in the skies of his Paradise.
‘All to One, gather!’
The so-called Divine celestial level 7, All to One state was one in which one was able to gather all the skills that he had ever cultivated in his life and fuse them together, evolving from there and evolving once more.
Just as Lin Fan was arranging all the skills he had ever learned in his lifetime, the powerful beings in the void were startled.
“This man is really vicious! To think that he would kill all of them with a single strike!”
“Just what sort of a move is he using? Demon-Slaying Sword Lord, Old Master Ru Yi and the others all seemed as though they couldn’t snap out of it at all!”
“I’ve got no idea. However, if this guy killed all of them, that must mean that everything they possessed is with him! That’s one hell of a fortune right there! This is especially so for Old Master Triple Corpse! His wealth was astounding!”
“So what if it’s astounding? We might not be his match at all. This is a fella with some supreme might right there. We’ve got to keep our cool.”
“Guys, check it out! That being of the Buddha race over there! He’s reforming them!”
At this moment, Reverend Shakya was elated beyond anything else. He had not expected Lin Fan to be this kind to him, leaving him these many powerful beings to reform.
However, it would take some time for him to reform these powerful beings. After all, the inner hearts of these powerful beings were akin to a rock, firm and resolute. Even if he wanted to reform them, it would take him quite a bit of effort.
However, the methods of Lin Fan which killed all of them with a single strike was pretty startling for Reverend Shakya.
…
“To think that this plain looking fella would be this strong.” Mu Manfeng was looking at Lin Fan in surprise as well.
Back when they were outside, he wasn’t really bothered with Lin Fan at all. However, by the looks of things now, this guy seemed as though he might even be even stronger than the fella from the Buddha race!
“Things are going to get sticky this time around.” Emperor Nan Gong’s eyes were filled with a look of worry. There were so many powerful beings there. Even with their combined efforts, they might not really get too many benefits out of this.
Xing Wangong, Jia Yongye, and Yu Liutian frowned as their minds started going into a whirl. Given the state of things right now, if they wanted to get some treasures out of this, they might have to resort to some other methods.
At this moment, Lin Fan opened up both his eyes as they shone with a bright glint. He had grown stronger once more.
All to One… Right now, all his skills were interlinked and fused with himself. However, the most important thing for him right now were the storage rings of the powerful beings.
Even though there were some treasures in there, they were way too inferior for his liking.
Though, there were some Shengyang Pills that he was coveting right now.
“Bald monk. You can refine them, but their storage rings shall belong to me.” Lin Fan did not wait for the bald monk to reply before he swept the storage rings clean immediately.
“Not bad! To think that there are 400,000,000 Shengyang Pills.” Lin Fan arranged the loot and smiled out.
However, if he were to split them apart, all of these powerful beings were akin to paupers individually.
Coupled with all the treasures he had swept from the previous encounter, there were a total of 600,000,000 Shengyang Pills.
“Hais! Seems like the Utmost Being of the Ancient race is still the richest. All of those Shengyang Pills could only be counted in trillions.” Lin Fan lamented. It was a pity that the Utmost Being was someone incredibly strong. One could only get lucky once, and that would be all. There wouldn’t be a second time for that any longer.
‘One Qi To Three Corpses.’
‘Peerless Indestructible Sword Will.’
‘Big Tiny Wishes.’
…
From these powerful beings, a number of skills popped up as well. None of these skills were really weak in terms of their grades. However, they weren’t really all that important for Lin Fan.
Although, there WAS one skill that had Lin Fan’s interest piqued.
‘Ding…Do you wish to learn Big Tiny Wishes?’
‘Learn.’
‘Big Tiny Wishes: Change one’s body. A single thought can enlarge your body to encompass the entire heaven while another thought can turn you into a dust particle.’
“HAHA! Awesome! This is plain awesome!” Reverend Shakya was giving it his all to reform those powerful beings. His face was flushed red right now in exhilaration.
Even though Reverend Shakya wasn’t all that weak himself, being able to reform powerful beings of this level was something that had never ever crossed his mind.
However, Reverend Shakya knew that all of his good luck right now was all thanks to this Motherf*cking Human King.
At this moment, Reverend Shakya’s impression of Lin Fan was changing pretty starkly. In fact, he was starting to not mind that swollen chest of his all that much as well.
After all, if Lin Fan could revert his chest back to normalcy, Reverend Shakya would have to leave him. But if that were the case, all these affairs of reforming powerful beings would have nothing to do with him in the future any longer.
The more he thought, the more Reverend Shakya was hoping that the matter of his chest being reverted to normal would not come so swiftly.
“Finally feeling good now?” Lin Fan asked.
“Yepp. Really good.” Reverend Shakya nodded his head.
“Then, can you leave me now?” Lin Fan asked again.
“No can do, nopes! This poor monk’s chest has yet to be returned to normal! How can I leave?” Instantly, Reverend Shakya shook his head furiously.
Gotta be kidding him! Even if his chest returned to normal, he wouldn’t want to leave! After following this Motherf*cking Human King, Reverend Shakya’s luck had been improving all the while.
How long has it been only and yet, he was able to reform so many powerful beings! If he were to follow this guy for a couple of years, wouldn’t he have it made by then?
“Gosh, your greed is endless.” How could Lin Fan not tell of the thoughts running through Reverend Shakya’s mind right now? However, he did not say anything much. Once he was out of this secret ground, he would then think of ways to shrug this guy off.
Though, the powerful beings that were hidden in the void right now were causing Lin Fan’s heart to palpitate a little.
‘Even if you guys don’t mess with Yours Truly, it doesn’t mean Yours Truly can’t mess with you guys instead.’

Hahaha. In case you guys are puzzled how Big Tiny Wishes can lead to ‘thoughts’ instead, wishes in this case is referring to how someone ‘wills’ for something to happen. Ru Yi is actually well wishes! Cheers!
Chapter 686: Mass Attack!
“Alright, all of you sightseeing lads, come on out here.” Lin Fan stepped forth and struck out an imposing pose. That domineering aura of his penetrated the void as he looked above. These guys had been peeking for half a day now.
As the saying went, ‘When the snipe and clam grapples, it’s the fisherman that profits.’
All of these guys thought of themselves as the fishermen. However, what they did not know was that Yours Truly was a bandit who specialized in robbing fish from fishermen.
The void went silent as the powerful beings exchanged glances with one another, wondering what this fella was up to.
“Benefactor, what is your purpose of doing this?” Reverend Shakya asked with a perplexed look.
The powerful beings that he had just reformed were now within his Buddha’s Land Paradise and were praying all day all night. With that, their faith was never-ending. For Reverend Shakya, those powerful beings were more than enough.
“Robbery.” Lin Fan replied indifferently as though he was speaking of something real casual right now. However, for Reverend Shakya, it was quite an unexpected thing to hear.
“R-robbery…? Them…?” Reverend Shakya was stunned. Even though the mood right now was pretty high, there was no need for them to get this brazen, right?
All of the powerful beings within the void squealed out in shock. They still had no idea what this guy was trying to achieve.
Honestly, how could they be bothered by something like this? When some of the powerful beings realized that the five blood colored mountains held no secrets to it, they were already making preparations to leave this place and look for the body of the Gleaming Blood Lord elsewhere.
“Hmph! Since you guys don’t wish to come out, then Yours Truly shall invite you guys out personally.” Seeing how no one was coming out, Lin Fan stretched out his fingers and grabbed out at the void An explosion sounded as the voids crumbled, causing many powerful beings who were hidden within to be squeezed out of it.
“What’s he trying to do?” Mu Manfeng frowned, feeling the repressing feeling from the void above him. He retaliated with his body’s energy. However, he found out that the force pressing down on him was really strong, that he couldn’t fight back at all.
“Such a strong power!”
Yu Liutian and the others were looking slightly terrible right now. Their cultivation states weren’t weak. But, for them to be forced out of the void just like that by someone else? That had them in some slight disbelief.
“Insolent! What are you trying to do with this?” Floating in the void, a man draped in a set of long white robes barked out.
It was the same for the other powerful beings present. All of them were looking at Lin Fan with an irritated reaction. It was as though they were telling him that this issue would come to no end unless he explained his actions.
“Benefactor, please hold it in!” The little heart of Reverend Shakya was thumping furiously right now. This move of Lin Fan had Reverend Shakya so rattled that he no longer knew what to say at all.
This was just courting death!
If these powerful beings were to gang up on them, there was no way they were getting out of this alive!
“Bald monk, I’d advise you to leave this place as soon as you can. Yours Truly is going to get into a huge clash soon.” In order to chase Reverend Shakya away, Lin Fan was giving it his all right now.
“What for?” Reverend Shakya was stumped, not understanding the situation unfolding here. Even if Lin Fan wanted to put on an act, that would have to depend on the situation, wouldn’t it?
“Because Yours Truly is happy? Now, are you going to leave or not?” Lin Fan tossed a side glance at the bald monk. At the same time, he was thinking in his heart. If this guy still didn’t want to leave even right now, then Yours Truly could only concede to this guy.
“Hais, since you choose to act as such, benefactor, then this poor monk here can only accompany you to the end.” At this moment, Reverend Shakya’s look was all serious, as though he had just made a resolution to stick with Lin Fan through thick and thin.
At this moment, Lin Fan was truly at a loss for words. This bloody sh*t wasn’t afraid of something like this?
“Master, what does your friend mean by this?” Mu Manfeng looked over at Reverend Shakya with an unfriendly and frosty tone.
Mu Manfeng wasn’t some sort of a merciful and compassionate person. Anyone who could live their lives up to such a cultivation state was someone who had killed and slashed their way up.
“What do you mean? I’m here to rob the sh*t out of you guys today, duh! Why? Are you unhappy about that? Don’t you agree with me, bald monk?” Lin Fan blared out.
Looking at the situation before him right now, Reverend Shakya’s heart gave a momentary jerk. Bloody hell! This fella was causing the situation to get real deadly!
However, what else could he say at this moment? This benefactor was being way too audacious. If he were to get the entire crowd riled up, it’d be impossible to avoid this battle at all!
“That’s right.” Helpless as he was, Reverend Shakya had no choice but to nod his head and agree with it eventually.
“Did you guys hear that? Alright, all you bunch of scums! You had better take out all your treasures and belongings! Otherwise, Reverend Shakya here is going to reform you guys!” Lin Fan pointed over to Reverend Shakya and yelled out.
The moment these words came out of his mouth, the expressions of the powerful beings in the void changed.
“To think that he’s the genius of the Buddha race, Reverend Shakya!”
Mu Manfeng had not expected this master here to be Reverend Shakya, that unusual being from the Buddha race. However, there was something that was causing Mu Manfeng to be curious right now. Just who in the world was this other man then?
“Hmph! Reverend Shakya, aren’t the both of you getting a little overboard? Do you guys think that you can suppress us with just you two alone?” Yu Liutian scoffed out icily as his eyes shone with anger.
“This poor monk…” Right now, Reverend Shakya could not explain his predicament at all. His heart was akin to that of a bright lamp shining through darkness. How could he not know of Lin Fan’s intentions at all? However, there were truly many benefits to gain by following him! Reverend Shakya could not bear to leave him. Furthermore, his chest hadn’t reverted yet!
Right now, with so many powerful beings around, Reverend Shakya was in a dilemma as well. If they were to truly fight it out, the only thing he could do was to run.
“What can you do even if I want to suppress you?” Lin Fan took a step forth suddenly and unleashed Tiny Big Wishes. Instantly, he sent a gigantic palm that grabbed out at Yu Liutian.
“Insolent!” Yu Liutian roared out. In a flash, his body shifted and formed a typhoon before him. This typhoon seemed to possess all sorts of killing intent within it.
That gigantic palm of Lin Fan brought forth with it an extremely formidable force to it. Even though Yu Liutian’s strength was decent, it was nowhere comparable to Lin Fan’s.
Lin Fan pinched the entire typhoon within his hands.
“Not good! To think that that fella would possess such a strong power!” Yu Liutian broke out in cold sweat from head to toe. To think that this fella with an unknown background would be so tough to deal with!
“Jade God’s Heavenly Technique!”
Losing to that beast, Mu Manfeng, had already caused Yu Liutian to feel really resentful in his heart. If he now lost to this unknown fella as well, that was something that Yu Liutian wouldn’t be able to tolerate at all!
Instantly, a long streak of light appeared as Yu Liutian slapped away Lin Fan’s gigantic hand. Three streams of white air gushed out from the back of Yu Liutian, piercing the sky instantly. From there, a boundless might erupted forth violently.
“Seems like that fella was still holding something back when he was fighting me.” The moment Mu Manfeng caught sight of this, he focused up a little. However, all of a sudden, he realized that there was a sharp Sword Will shooting out from the void targeting him.
“You little thief! How dare you strike at us!”
“Everyone, head up together! Once we kill him, we’ll split his fortune up!”
At this moment, Yu Liutian wasn’t the only one targeted by Lin Fan. When Lin Fan struck out, the sky was filled with Sword Wills that burst out at all the powerful beings present instantly.
Catching sight of everything before him, Lin Fan grinned. His body disappeared in a flash as he bolted out into the distance.
“Come at Yours Truly if you guys have the guts!” There was only a single thought in Lin Fan’s mind right now: run. Now that he had riled everyone up into a big fight, if that bald monk wanted to continue following him, that would depend on whether he had the abilities to do so.
“Thief, stop running!” All the powerful beings were green with rage right now. Without caring about anything else, they each delved into the void and chased behind Lin Fan.
“Benefactor, you…!” Reverend Shakya seemed as though he was dumbstruck right now. Looking at Lin Fan who dove headfirst into the void, it took him awhile to snap out of it.
Suddenly, he came to his senses.
“Benefactor, wait up!!!”
…
Chapter 687: Nearly Ran Away
Reverend Shakya was hating himself in his heart. What the hell did he froze up for earlier on? Now that he had finally snapped back to his senses, it was all too late. Lin Fan had long disappeared to god knows where.
He could only hope that he would still be able to catch up eventually.
“Reverend Shakya, please hold up!” Mu Manfeng blocked Reverend Shakya in his way.
“Benefactor, this poor monk here has something to do. Please make way for me.” Even though Reverend Shakya was extremely impatient right now, his attitude towards Mu Manfeng was still kind and benevolent.
Even though there were so many powerful beings who were chasing after Lin Fan right now, Mu Manfeng on the other hand did not join them and was waiting for Reverend Shakya instead.
“Of course, I can make way for you. However, Reverend Shakya, I heard that the skill of Purification possessed by you is pretty miraculous. I wonder if Reverend Shakya could resign yourself to part with that treasure of yours. I will be eternally grateful for it.”
Even though Mu Manfeng possessed the heritage of the Great Sovereign Buddha, there was a skill lacking within it, the skill of Purification. If he could learn this Purification technique, he could reform and cleanse the living beings in the world and have them provide faith for him. At that time, Mu Manfeng’s Great Sovereign Buddha techniques would definitely be able to reach a new level.
The moment Reverend Shakya heard these words, his eyes shone with a glimmer. Placing his hands together, he continued, “Benefactor, the skill of Purification is one that is exclusive to the Buddha race alone. I’m afraid that I would have to disappoint this benefactor. Do make way for me, benefactor. This poor monk has something he must do.”
“Everyone says that pray and you shall receive. To think that Reverend Shakya would reject me outright. Seems like your cultivation isn’t quite there yet eh, Reverend Shakya? Since that’s the case, I’m afraid I’ll have to squeeze it out of you myself then.” Mu Manfeng had planned for this from the start. While it might be true that Lin Fan did provoke him, he knew that he would gain nothing out of killing him. He might as well hold back Reverend Shakya and try to learn his skill of Purification instead.
Even if Reverend Shakya refused him, Mu Manfeng had intended to suppress Reverend Shakya forcefully. Using a soul-searching technique, he would then seek out the skill of Purification himself.
Even though Reverend Shakya was strong, Mu Manfeng wasn’t fearful in the least bit.
“Benefactor, you must be possessed.” Reverend Shakya was enraged momentarily as the Angered Buddha within his heart rose. If he were to continue dragging on with this, he would truly be dead meat once Lin Fan escaped far away.
If he wanted to find him once more, it would be extremely difficult by then.
Seeing this Mu Manfeng being so obstinate, Reverend Shakya was feeling exasperated. He looked pretty amicable on first glance, but to think that he would be this vicious.
“Angered Buddha! Master, you do have a deep affinity with Buddhism. How about you take a look at my Greedy Buddha then!” Mu Manfeng sniggered out sinisterly. Instantly, a bright streak of golden light shone out and spread across the world, overpowering even that of Reverend Shakya’s.
“Hais…” Reverend Shakya sighed out. He did not wish to say anything any longer as he slammed a fist out towards Mu Manfeng to suppress it.
…
“Given the situation right now, the chance of me making my escape has risen quite a fair bit!” As Lin Fan was streaking his way across the sky, he made sure to check back from time to time as well.
All of those powerful beings were in hot pursuit like rabid dogs.
“Little bald monk! Yours Truly is going to make his escape now! If you can still hunt me down, Yours Truly is going to eat sh*t!” Lin Fan gloated in his heart. He wasn’t bothered in the least bit about these guys chasing behind him.
If he wanted to take them down, it would be relatively simple. However, in order to not cause any unnecessary commotion, Lin Fan decided not to strike back. All he wanted to do was escape.
“Little degenerate! You had better stop there!”
“Even if I’m going to hunt you down to the end of the world, I’m going to kill you!”
“Damned sh*t! How dare you provoke us? Courting death!”
Yu Liutian and the others bellowed. They had intentions of killing Lin Fan. This was especially the case given how short-tempered Yu Liutian was. Before he had even entered the secret grounds, he was already filled with rage from the incidents prior.
And, to think that he would meet with this provocation of Lin Fan. This was just the avenue for him to release all that pent-up frustration of his.
“Hmph! A bunch of dumbf*cks! If not for the fact that I’m trying to avoid that bald monk, I’d have long killed all of you!” Lin Fan’s figure flashed nimbly. Instantly, he activated his Stealth to its maximum and deployed So Near, Yet So Far, running a hundred miles out.
Within the void, Lin Fan was like a fish that had found water. His mighty body went against those void currents with ease. These voids currents that posed a threat to everyone and ripped everything in their way could not deal a single bit of damage to Lin Fan at all.
“That little degenerate is bloody good at running!”
“His movement skills are indeed pretty slick! We must definitely kill him and obtain his skills!”
“That’s right! The wealth within the storage rings of Old Master Triple Corpse and the others must definitely be frightening! Even if we don’t get anything within this secret ground, this trip wouldn’t be a wasted one if we could obtain all those items within that little b*stard’s possessions right now!”
At this moment, Lin Fan was a moving treasure chest for all of them. Everyone wanted him dead.
“Bloody hell! All of them are acting like rabid dogs!” The distance between Lin Fan and these powerful beings was getting wider. Before long, he would be able to make it out of this place completely.
His second Essence Spirit had already managed to suppress the connate Element of Wood. Even though the connate Element of Wood was strong, it was something that Lin Fan could take down with a single raise of his hands.
“Eh? What’s up with this sh*t before me?” Just at this moment, Lin Fan’s brows creased. Far in the distance ahead, a sea of blood was rumbling, looking extremely strange.
The clouds in that area were all stained with the same blood red color. In fact, the affected area was spreading out rapidly. Before he knew it, the entire patch of redness extended out above Lin Fan’s head in the sky.
“Guys, look! What is that?”
The powerful beings who were chasing after Lin Fan had noticed this weird phenomenon in the sky as well. However, they did not know what was going on at all.
“There’s something strange going on up ahead. It must be the birth of some sort of treasure!”
“Could it be the treasure of the Gleaming Blood Lord?”
…
“Just what in the world are these?” Lin Fan frowned. He had a bad feeling about this. Raising his head, the only thing he could see was blood red. It was as though his entire body was lying within an ocean of blood right now.
“There must be a demon in every single strange place there is.” Lin Fan wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible.
After all, everything was truly way too sinister.
However, at this very moment, those weird looking blood red clouds started shining with a series of bright gleams, having mysterious runic symbols within them.
Shing!
The void vibrated out as a tremendous force gushed out from all directions. Lin Fan was instantly pushed down from the void.
“Such a strong power!” Lin Fan’s heart jerked momentarily. This was an irresistible power. Even if he were a Divine celestial level 8, Universal Elixir state being right now, he would not even have the power to resist being pushed down from the void like now.
“This is a sealing power!”
Lin Fan suddenly realized that the powers churning within his body were gradually slowing down. In fact, the passage of time seemed to be stalling within this place as well.
“F*ck! This fella isn’t even revealing himself fully!” Lin Fan stopped his footsteps. Hurling out the Doomsday Calamity God Fist, a figure of a Skill Spirit carrying with it a typhoon of disastrous calamity slammed forward into the void.
However, the moment it made contact with that sea of blood, it drowned within, as though it had just dropped into quicksand. In fact, there weren’t even any ripples about it.
“Motherf*cking Human King, Lin Fan, just that sort of a cultivation state is enough for you to cause Cruel such troubles? Indeed, that guy is just all talk and no show.” A loud voice boomed out from all directions.
“Who is it?” Lin Fan’s face changed. He had clearly heard the name Cruel within those words. Could this be someone sent by the Utmost Being of the Ancient race?
At this moment, all the other powerful beings looked at their surroundings warily as well. They could sense a formidable surge of power filling up this entire world.
Instantly, a figure appeared before everyone in the far reaches of the sky.
That figure was shrouded in a black mist that was slowly gathering and culminating into a true body. The moment the true body was fully formed, the entire world descended into a blood red state.
Chapter 688: Gleaming Blood Lord
‘F*ck! Yours Truly has maintained such a low profile recently and yet someone is still hunting after me? This doesn’t make any sense at all!’ Lin Fan was pretty exasperated right now. By the sounds of it, this person seems to be here for him.
“Hmph! What sort of a person is this who dares to seek trouble with Your Motherf*cking King here? Can’t you see all the underlings behind Yours Truly right now? All of their cultivation states are heaven revolting! If you dare to act so insolently here, Your Motherf*cking King shall have them bust your anus!” Lin Fan tossed back his robes and said out domineeringly. However, within his heart, he was busy trying to think of how he should get out of this.
Given the state things were in right now, anyone could tell that this was probably going to be quite troublesome.
Before him stood a BOSS while behind him stood a bunch of elite buggers. This was truly a situation he had yet to come across thus far.
Divine celestial level 9, Eight Desolates United state.
‘This cultivation state should be manageable, I suppose.’ Lin Fan looked at the figure before him and started thinking real hard. Divine celestial level 9 state… This was just in between, neither high nor too low of a cultivation state. Based on his current strength, he should be able to give the other guy a run for his money.
However, there was some really strange feeling that Lin Fan was getting from his aura. He could sense that something wasn’t right.
“Just these trashes? I can easily take them down with the back of my palms!” That figure was wearing a mask that was fully red and covered everything except his eyes. Everything else was filled with runic symbols cramped together.
The moment this figure heard the words of Lin Fan, he replied with disdain.
The moment all of those powerful figures who were chasing after Lin Fan heard those words, THEY were the ones whose expressions turned extremely terrible.
“Who are you!”
“How dare you refer to us as trashes? You’re just courting death!”
“Hmph! There’s so many of us around today! Even if you’ve got some godlike capabilities, you’re not going to be able to run away!”
Which of these powerful beings weren’t individuals who were high and mighty? Now that they were referred to as trashes, how could any of them endure this at all?
“That’s right! This is simply intolerable! How dare this masked man refer to you guys as trashes? Even I am getting a little pissed listening to that!” Lin Fan said, adding oil to the fire.
“Based on my opinion, we should all head up and kill that fella!”
Lin Fan had not expected for this masked man to appear before him. Furthermore, this guy gave him a really ominous feeling. Even if they were to all rush at him together, they might not be his match at all.
With a wolf up ahead and dogs behind him, if the dogs and wolf were to work together, he’d be the one in a bad state.
“Hmph! YOU shut up! You want to make use of us as your bullets? You’ve got to be looking down on us!”
“That’s right! Today, BOTH of you must die!”
…
Looking at how these powerful beings were shouting out one after another, Lin Fan was helpless in his heart as well. To think that his little secret would be exposed. That was pretty hurtful man!
“All of you guys are wrong. This masked man here is someone sent by the Utmost Being of the Ancient race, Cruel. If you guys don’t join forces, do you think you can get out of this place alive?” Lin Fan asked.
“What? Someone sent by the Utmost Being of the Ancient race?!”
The moment all the powerful beings heard these words, their spirits were rattled. Evidently, they were in some disbelief over the fact.
For all of these powerful beings, the Ancient race was a really sensitive topic to talk about. This was even more so for the Utmost Being of the Ancient race. That name was akin to a gigantic mountain pressing down on their hearts.
The masked man stood there motionless. For him, these guys were nothing more than mere ants before him.
All of a sudden, he raised a single finger. With that, a bright beam of red light burst out, followed by a tragic scream.
“ARGHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
Within the group of powerful beings, one of them suddenly ballooned up before exploding into pieces of flesh.
“Darn it!”
The pieces of flesh rumbled around furiously, trying to regroup into a new body. However, a massive surge of energy gushed down from the Heaven all of a sudden, mincing those pieces of meat into nothingness.
“All of you shall die.” The voice of the masked man was frosty beyond anything else. These so called powerful beings were not a threat to him in the slightest bit.
“F*ck! How long more are you guys going to continue watching for? The other party has already started making his move to kill you guys! If you guys hesitate any longer, you might be the ones left dead!” Seeing that scene, even Lin Fan’s heart could not help but feel slightly rattled. To think that this masked man would be this f*cked up! Killing them over a single sentence he disagreed with! That was even more overbearing than Yours Truly!
Before Yours Truly killed anyone, he would still at least bother to sprout some crap with them! But this guy here just threw out a finger, bringing with it absolute force to crush them into bits!
This was absolute oppression through pure power! How frightening was this?
Lin Fan did not wish to strike out right now. All he wanted to do was to get out of this place. He was truly afraid of that bald monk, who was one hell of an annoyance.
He had finally gotten this chance to run out this far. Naturally, he would make sure to escape as far as he could possibly get.
“Everyone, strike together!” The powerful beings were tensed up right now. However, their sights were focused as they bolted up at the masked man together.
“Hmph! What a bunch of ants!” The masked man snorted coldly. A gigantic blood red palm descended from the sky. Bringing with it a devastating amount of power, it swept across the battlefield and suppressed everyone.
“Ah! That’s the Blood Demon’s Mega Palm of the Gleaming Blood Lord!”
“He is THE Gleaming Blood Lord!”
“The Gleaming Blood Lord isn’t dead! Everyone, run!”
At this moment, some of the powerful beings were familiar with who the Gleaming Blood Lord was. The moment they caught sight of the bloodied palm, they started exclaiming out in shock.
Wherever that huge blood red arm passed, everything would wither and die. As the fingers of the palm started pulling, everyone could feel as though the essence, spirit, and vitality within their bodies were getting sucked dry.
Legends had it that the Gleaming Blood Lord was a powerful being formed from a pool of blood that had cultivated itself to the Dao. It could devour all the essence, spirit, and vitality of the word, strengthening itself in the process.
However, a thousand years ago, the Gleaming Blood Lord was surrounded and ganged upon by a group of powerful beings from the thousands of races and severely injured. Even though he had managed to escape successfully, his Essence Spirit was on the brink of dissipating through the grave injuries.
For all of the beings of the thousands of races, the Gleaming Blood Lord was a truly heaven-defying, powerful being. For most people who bumped into him, the only outcome was none other than death.
“Senior Gleaming Blood Lord! Please spare my life!”
“ARGHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
A powerful being cried out, seeking for mercy. However, in the blink of an eye, he was splattered by the palm and turned into a pool of blood.
“Run! Everyone, hurry up and run!” All of the powerful beings were stumped right now, screaming out in their hearts. This deep rising fear was surging its way into their hearts right now.
The repressing feeling of the fear was so intense that they were suffocating from it.
The might of the Gleaming Blood Lord was unparalleled. Even after a thousand years, it was still a shadow that lurked in the darkness of these powerful being’s memories.
“I am the genius of the Jade God Sect! Gleaming Blood Lord, you can’t kill me!” Yu Liutian screamed out in fear.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
In the blink of an eye, Yu Liutian was disintegrated into nothingness.
Xing Wangong and Jia Yongye were horrifically pale right now as well. To think that they would meet such a supremely powerful being within this secret ground!
“Run! Hurry up and run! We’re definitely no match for this Gleaming Blood Lord!” Xing Wangong and Jia Yongye were horrified right now. There was no room for them to even think about anything else as they darted out into the distant skies.
However, just as the both of them were about to run, a gigantic banner of blood gushed down from the sky, encompassing both of them.
“AH! I CAN’T ACCEPT THIS!”
The both of them struggled within the red colored banner. However, it only tightened up continuously. With a crack, fresh drops of blood dripped out of this red banner.
By the time the banner opened up once more, the only thing that dropped out of it were two sets of corpses.
In that instant, the essence, spirit, vitality, flesh, and blood of Xing Wangong and Jia Yongye were consumed by the Gleaming Blood Lord.
“Such a cruel skill.” Witnessing this sight, Lin Fan could not help but freeze up for a little.
…
Chapter 689: Running Faster Than A Rabbit
Lin Fan watched every single cruel method of the Gleaming Blood Lord carefully. He knew that out of all the demons he had encountered thus far, the Gleaming Blood Lord was the most vicious entity out there.
He was a powerful being that had existed a thousand years ago. Now that a thousand years had passed, how much firmer and stronger would his foundation be?
Out of all the powerful beings from earlier on, there were no lack of Divine celestial level 8, Universal Elixir state beings. However, before the palm of this Gleaming Blood Lord, all of them were squashed like ants.
Amongst the powerful beings of Divine celestial level 8, Universal Elixir state, Grandmaster Yun of the Cloud Sect could be considered the strongest of them all. However, not even he might be able to withstand this palm strike from the Gleaming Blood Lord.
“This is certainly going to be troublesome now.”
At that moment, Lin Fan felt his spirits being rattled. The pair of eyes beneath that mask of the Gleaming Blood Lord were fixated on him, akin to a gigantic, rumbling ocean of blood. And, within that ocean of blood lied the tormented souls of countless powerful beings who were screaming out at the top of their lungs.
“Gleaming Blood Lord, Yours Truly isn’t feeling all that comfortable today. How about we delay this battle of ours for another day?” Lin Fan did not feel like going up against a twisted f*ck as such.
The Gleaming Blood Lord was a Divine celestial level 9, Eight Desolates United state being. Every single move of his would encompass energy from all the eight desolates. This was no ordinary being to deal with.
“Motherf*cking Human King, your meddling with affairs here has become cumbersome, and is interrupting with the plans of my Master!”
“Die!”
An ominous glow flashed out. Clearly, the Gleaming Blood Lord did not want to say anything much anymore. Two beams of red light shot out of his eyes like sharp blades.
“Holy fck! Gleaming Blood Lord, don’t you go overboard now! If Yours Truly were to get serious, even Yours Truly would be afraid of myself!” It was in Lin Fan’s character to get into a fight if he were displeased with something. But damn it! This Gleaming Blood Lord was even more overbearing than him! This was pretty intolerable!
Lin Fan’s body flashed as countless erupted forth. A single palm could encompass the Heavens while another could quake the ground. Ever since he had entered the All to One state, any skills could move freely at the back of his hands without any loopholes in them.
“Gleaming Blood Slaying Sword!”
The Gleaming Blood Lord pointed out with his finger, as a single drop of fresh blood burst out. Instantly, it transformed into a blood red long sword. That single sword brought with it the ghastly cries of spirits and gods as the skies were filled with the ocean of blood. The entire world was sliced into two with that sword.
“Good sword! Alright, Yours Truly shall have a go with you today then!” Lin Fan knew that there was no way out of this. Instantly, the nine Sword Wills of the Firmament Sword fused together as they converged into a spot of light on Lin Fan’s fingertips.
“The Utmost Dao of the Sword that possesses everything in the world!”
The nine Sword Wills brought with it everything within this world. At the same time, it possessed all the enlightenment that Lin Fan had received along his way. That single sword that slashed out shone with a radiant light in all directions.
BOOM!
A loud explosion rang out. Lin Fan stumbled back dozens of miles as a deep wound was cut on Lin Fan’s chest by the Gleaming Blood Lord’s sword.
On the wound, the gleaming blood rumbled as the sharp blood tore its way into Lin Fan’s body.
‘So strong! This is a pure oppression with brute force! Even though my cultivation state is only that of a Divine celestial level 7, the powers within my body are extremely dense, and I’m able to go against someone of Divine celestial level 9 for sure. But, to think that I would take in such disadvantages under the hands of the Gleaming Blood Lord? Just how strong is this guy?!’
Other than the eight Utmost Beings of the Ancient race, Lin Fan had never really been bothered with any other beings of the thousands of races. However, to think that this Gleaming Blood Lord before him could cause him such substantial damage. With that, Lin Fan could not help but get more serious.
The fact that he could kill enemies that were higher level than him did not mean that there wasn’t anyone from the thousands of races who couldn’t do so as well.
The Fire Water Emperor who could suppress an Utmost Being of the Ancient race was a savant genius. Considering that, this Gleaming Blood Lord must definitely be one of them as well.
His cultivation state was strong, with a deep foundation to it. There was no way to tell the depth of his powers at all.
“Motherf*cking Human King, you’re strong indeed. However, in my eyes, you’re no different than a dead dog. The Utmost Being, Cruel, is simply way too weak. To think that he would have to run in circles because of you, and even have a single Essence Spirit of his fall because of it.” The Gleaming Blood Lord spoke up in a cold tone.
“What crap are you spouting? Even if Yours Truly is a dead dog, I’ll ensure that you will die in the hands of this dead dog then!” Lin Fan bellowed out as a hundred thousand feet long Colossal Dragon burst forth from his body.
The dragon’s roar was explosive, as the manifested Colossal Dragon growled out relentlessly. The Heavenly Dragon’s Music churned out into the world as this irresistible tune permeated the void.
“Hmph! Heavenly Dragon’s Music… know your place.” The Gleaming Blood Lord laughed out icily. Instantly, a shrill, sharp noise burst forth from his mouth.
BAM!
The hundred thousand feet long Colossal Dragon exploded into pieces and was sent back into Lin Fan’s Paradise.
“Flying Heavens.”
Lin Fan’s motions were akin to that of a dragon’s. With the power of his Paradise boosting him, Lin Fan’s powers were as vast as the seas, as they slammed out towards the Gleaming Blood Lord.
Pshew!
Flying Heavens tore through the void and swiveled within it. Instantly, it appeared behind the Gleaming Blood Lord and aimed at penetrating his body.
Clang!
A gigantic blood red arm suddenly appeared and grabbed Flying Heavens within it.
“Hmph! A mere Dao Weapon and you dare to use it so impertinently before me? You’re truly courting death.” The Gleaming Blood Lord scoffed coldly.
“Not good!” Lin Fan had not expected this Gleaming Blood Lord to be this tricky to deal with. To think that even Flying Heavens which was hidden in the void would be discovered by him!
In fact, the thing that was giving Lin Fan a bad feeling about this was the fact that both Weapon Spirits within Flying Heavens were being attacked by that boundless power of the Gleaming Blood Lord right now.
“Shengyang Pills, burn!”
Lin Fan did not hesitate at all as he burned up 200,000,000 Shengyang Pills right away. Even though it was a sizeable fortune, burning it right now would be enough for Flying Heavens to go wild.
The Gleaming Blood Lord frowned slightly as he realized the Flying Heavens was rotating faster in his hand. Suddenly, a tremendous amount of power burst forth from it.
Bam!
The palm of the Gleaming Blood Lord burst into pieces with that as Flying Heavens seized the opportunity to run away.
“Hmph! To think that you would burn Shengyang Pills. Seems like you’ve got some capabilities then.” The Gleaming Blood Lord snorted coldly as that exploded palm of his began to regenerate.
“Yours Truly has all sorts of capabilities to me. You’re dead for sure!” Lin Fan tensed up. This was the first time he was coming face to face with a truly powerful being.
Even though this Gleaming Blood Lord was only at the Divine celestial level 9, Eight Desolates United state, his powers were definitely comparable to that of a Divine celestial level 10, Eternal God state being.
“Amitabha! Benefactor, this poor monk has finally found you! Why are you being sealed up by this blood sea here?” At this moment, a small little gap was breached through the entire ocean of blood that was sealing up the entire place.
Reverend Shakya shone with a bright Buddha light, as though the Land of Bliss itself had appeared personally.
“Bald monk, this is the Gleaming Blood Lord here. Bloody hell run away!” Lin Fan had not expected this bloody bald monk to really catch up with him here.
“Buddha race.” The moment the Gleaming Blood Lord caught sight of who it was that had arrived, his eyes shone with an ominous glint. It was as though he possessed an endless amount of hatred towards the Buddha race.
“What? Gleaming Blood Lord?” Reverend Shakya was not up to speed with the current events just yet. However, the moment he heard the words of Lin Fan, he was petrified, as that benevolent and compassionate face of his turned a little pale.
“Benefactor! This poor monk is going to take his leave now! Gleaming Blood Lord, you guys carry on!” Without waiting, Reverend Shakya fled off instantly. In the blink of an eye, he was nowhere to be seen.
“Holy fck!” Lin Fan was stunned at what had just happened. This fcker ran way too fast, didn’t he?! Even when they were walking usually, he was just taking his own sweet time. To think that he would be scared sh*tless just by the name of this Gleaming Blood Lord!
“Go to hell!” The unparalleled might of the Gleaming Blood Lord exuded forth once more as he targeted Lin Fan again.
“F*ck! We don’t know who’s dead for sure just yet!” Lin Fan gave up every other thought in his mind and focused every single last bit of his attention into fighting with this Gleaming Blood Lord.
…
Reverend Shakya was sprinting the entire way as that little heart of his thumped furiously.
“To think that the Gleaming Blood Lord isn’t dead! How could this be?” Reverend Shakya could not believe everything he had just witnessed. A thousand years was a long time before he was even born. However, he did read through the records after that.
The Gleaming Blood Lord was a demon who was never supposed to be born. Back in the past, it took three powerful beings from the Buddha race to kill the Gleaming Blood Lord. At the end of it, the Gleaming Blood Lord had still managed to kill one of them in reverse. This was a huge calamity for the beings of the Buddha race.
Those three powerful Buddhas were all tremendous pillars of support for the Buddha race. Losing even one of them was an immense loss for the entire race.
“Benefactor Lin is dead for sure! This time around, he’s surely going to be killed!” Reverend Shakya was thinking about it while he was making his escape.
“What should this poor monk do?!” Reverend Shakya was in a dilemma right now, wondering what the best course of action was.
Meeting such a powerful demon was undoubtedly a dead end for anyone. It didn’t matter how many people there were fighting against him.
“This…!” Reverend Shakya came to a stop and looked over at that ocean of blood right there.
Eventually, he clenched his teeth and blurted out, “F*ck it! If I’m going to die, then so be it! Damn!”

Lam_ Lam_
HAHAHA. Honestly, this Reverend Shakya is just cracking me up with his antics. I truly hope he doesn’t die man sighpie.
Chapter 690: Bald Monk, Just Speak The Truth!
Thud!
A flash of red light pierced through the world as though an infinite number of swords had slashed through.
Drip.
“Ah, that hurts! Dang it!” At this moment, fresh blood was dripping from Lin Fan’s body. His entire body was filled with wounds all over it. Even if his physical body state was that of a Divine celestial level 8, Universal Elixir state being right now, he could not defend against the brutal attacks of the Gleaming Blood Lord.
‘Ding…Eternal God Body Experience Points +20,000’
“Holy f*ck. What’s the use of gaining experience points right now? Yours Truly is not going to be able to hold out for much longer!” The Mythical Parasol Tree was transfusing a large amount of lifeforce to repair Lin Fan’s body.
However, the attacks of the Gleaming Blood Lord were way too sharp. Even if it were any normal Divine celestial level 9, Eight Desolates United state powerful beings, they might not be able to take down this incomparably tough body of his.
However, before this Gleaming Blood Lord, the physical body state that he was so proud of was getting shredded like a piece of paper.
“Are you on crack or something? You’re obviously just a Divine celestial level 9, Eight Desolates United state being! How is it that the power sent forth from you is so damn strong?” Lin Fan was helpless right now. He even had the slightest intention of committing suicide.
This was one hell of a f*ckfest for Lin Fan. How in the world did he meet such a powerful opponent?
“Spirit of Biggra, are you bloody done with your preparations yet or not?” Lin Fan looked within his Paradise impatiently at that Spirit of Biggra, which was preparing himself.
“Yes, I’m done! Allow me, the Spirit of Biggra, to truly strut my stuff today!” The Spirit of Biggra nodded his head solemnly.
“Gleaming Blood Lord! Prepare to thoroughly enjoy the strongest move that Yours Truly have!” Lin Fan bellowed out. Slapping out with his palm, the Spirit of Biggra yelled out as well.
“Hmph!” The Gleaming Blood Lord snorted coldly as his robes danced in the air. A mighty aura emanated out from it, plunging straight towards the Spirit of Biggra.
Bam!
The Spirit of Biggra exploded into a thick, dense mist. Lin Fan was waiting with bated breath right now, wondering if the Spirit of Biggra would succeed.
“Gleaming Blood Lord! Later on, Yours Truly will let you experience what it’s like to f*ck the ground! You’ll definitely feel pleasure beyond anything else!” Lin Fan held both hands together, starting to gain some control over the pace of the battle now.
The Spirit of Biggra was Lin Fan’s ace up his sleeves. Against any powerful being he faced, Lin Fan would always be sure to go a few rounds with them first. Once he was certain that he couldn’t win against them, he would then let the Spirit of Biggra into the battlefield to clean up the mess. As for the outcome later on, Lin Fan was already expecting it.
This Gleaming Blood Lord would be sure to get into a frenzy and give in to his lust before getting all berserk and raged up.
And of course, to ensure that the Gleaming Blood Lord wouldn’t end up coming over to fck him, Lin Fan made sure to enter Stealth mode. If the enraged Gleaming Blood Lord ended up fcking him, it would be an utterly unbearable sight for sure.
Lin Fan was waiting patiently in a relaxed manner. However, all of a sudden, he saw the Spirit of Biggra scrambling all the way back!
“Master! This guy is way too twisted! His inner heart is all filled with lust and desire! Even his second Essence Spirit was masturbating! When I entered his Paradise, I was nearly caught by that second Essence Spirit of his and was so close to losing this pure body of mine!” The Spirit of Biggra bawled out in tears. For the Spirit of Biggra, this was a humiliating experience, a shame that he had never once experienced before!
“Huh?” Lin Fan’s jaws dropped agape. ‘That f*cking works too?’
“Hmph. Here I was thinking what sort of a move that will be. To think that it’s just something that will tug at my desires. I am the most tainted blood within this entire world. You honestly think that someone like you can manage to control me with my lust?” The eyes of the Gleaming Blood Lord shone with mockery before he burst out laughing wildly.
“Motherf*cking Human King Lin Fan, your death sentence is here. Your Essence Spirit there, I shall thoroughly savor it!” The hands of the Gleaming Blood Lord opened wide as an ocean of blood that encompassed the entire sky gushed over, emanating a strong bloody stench from it. In fact, there were even countless baleful spirits that were howling out within it.
“Holy fck! Sht has truly hit the fan this time around! To think that I would meet with a fcking gay boy!” Lin Fan was so frightened that his face had gone pale in shock, “Gleaming Blood Lord, the tides are ever changing! You had bloody fcking wait for me!”
Right now, there was only a single way out. In order to not let himself be fcked to death by this gay boy, Lin Fan could only enter the Heaven and Earth Smelt before cultivating for a long time within it. Once he had his physical body state trained to its highest peak, he would then come out and fck this Gleaming Blood Lord up!
“HAHA! How dare you remain so brazen at death’s door? Go to hell!” The might of the Gleaming Blood Lord was unparalleled. Even though he was only a Divine celestial level 9 right now, the foundation for his powers were so deep that there was no measure for it. Even the Utmost Being, Cruel, would be given a run for his money!
After all, the Utmost Being, Cruel, was the weakest existence amongst the eight Utmost Beings.
“Bloody hell! This is really one hell of a f*ckfest!” Lin Fan was always playing on the edges and taking huge risks. However, to think that the stakes would be this high this time around! This was something that Lin Fan hadn’t considered at all.
Boom!
“Benefactor, this poor monk is here to save you!”
At that moment, a Buddhist chant suddenly rang out as the sky was filled with golden Buddhist scriptures. A series of gigantic Buddha palms slammed out at the ocean of blood.
“Bald monk, didn’t you run off? Why are you back here again?” Lin Fan turned around only to see Reverend Shakya, who had appeared from God knew where.
“Benefactor, if I don’t enter hell, who…” Reverend Shakya’s face turned solemn as he replied with a serious look.
“Alright, alright. That’ll do. Tell me the truth.” Lin Fan couldn’t bring himself to believe even half a word of this bald monk.
However, the sheer fact that this bald monk has come forth to render assistance disregarding the dangers was something that had Lin Fan pretty touched. To think that someone would actually step forth for him in the face of such immense dangers in this inhumane and savage Ancient Saint World. Lin Fan even had an urge to bestow his body to this person with marriage as a gift.
“Benefactor, this poor monk is a being of the Buddha race. My heart lies with cleansing the world. Now that there’s a demon wreaking havoc, even if I know that I cannot defeat him, this poor monk cant just stand idly by…”
“Bald monk’, enough, please. Please speak the truth. Who knows if the both of us might just die later on. At least let me die with a peace of mind.” Lin Fan was resisting the urge to hang this bald monk and whack instead now.
If it were any other person, they might have found themselves hoodwinked by the words of this bald monk. But, what sort of a person was Lin Fan? He had long seen through this bald monk’s tricks.
“Benefactor, you…! Hais, forget it…” Reverend Shakya was hurt right now. To think that this benefactor before him would read him like an open book! He wouldn’t even give him a single chance to put on a show at all!
“Yes, just speak the truth.” Lin Fan replied seriously.
Reverend Shakya looked at Lin Fan and those bright eyes of his blinked, “Benefactor, there’s something I do not know if I’m allowed to say.”
“Speak.” Lin Fan replied.
“Benefactor, if you were to die, what would happen to this chest of this poor monk!? This poor monk is someone who has to turn into a Buddha! How can I have this body of a sinner?” Reverend Shakya was pained beyond words right now, “If not for the fact that you’ve caused my body to be in this state, this poor monk wouldn’t have returned for you!”
“Bald monk! You’re courting death!” The Gleaming Blood Lord hollered out as his face looked ever more venomous right now. The skills of the Buddha race were his biggest nemesis. They were skills that could neutralize that tainted Qi.
“Benefactor Gleaming Blood, do refer to this bald monk here as Reverend Shakya. Otherwise, I’m going to get angry.” Reverend Shakya reprimanded with a stern tone.
“Bald monk, how should we f*ck him up?” Lin Fan patted Reverend Shakya’s shoulders.
“Benefactor, what do you think?” Reverend Shakya reversed the question.
“You’ll take the front, I’ll take the back. Let’s split up the work.” Lin Fan replied after contemplating for a moment.
“Alright. This poor monk shall put in immense effort to work together with you today, benefactor. If we can get rid of this vile demon, it would be a form of salvation for the masses of the world as well.” Reverend Shakya lamented.
“Alright, let’s cut the crap. Time to f*ck him up!”
“Alright. You go first.”
“You first.”
“Benefactor, you can’t do that. How about we go together? Will that do?”
“Sure.”
…
“You guys are truly courting death.” The Gleaming Blood Lord laughed out coldly as his killing intent rumbled furiously.
Chapter 691: You Too, You Too
“Bald monk, you’ve got to be careful. This guy here is much stronger than us.” Lin Fan was truly afraid that the bald monk might not be able to hold out.
Even though Reverend Shakya was pretty decent in terms of his physical body state, if Lin Fan had to compare it with himself, they were still worlds apart. If he were to be caught by that Gleaming Blood Lord, coughing out blood would probably be the least consequential outcome of it all.
“Thank you for your concern, benefactor. However, do not worry. This poor monk here has a treasure that can cause this demon to feel pressured.” Reverend Shakya said with confidence.
“Holy f*ck! A treasure that can suppress this demon? Why aren’t you taking it out yet?” Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy when he heard that this bald monk had a treasure of that sort! Could it be that there was a chance of tormenting this Gleaming Blood Lord to death by working with this Reverend Shakya today?
“Benefactor, this poor monk was about to take it out when you started speaking to me. No matter what, you’ve got to give this poor monk sometime to prepare for it.” Reverend Shakya replied.
“HAHA! Suppress me? Bald monk, you’ve got to be dreaming! Within this world, there is nothing that can suppress me! Killing you guys is as simple as killing dogs to me!” Gleaming Blood Lord’s tone was frosty. As for the treasure that this bald monk had mentioned, he did not believe in it at all.
“Gleaming Blood Lord, I’m telling you this once more. Please refer to this poor monk as Reverend Shakya. You have to know, even a Buddha has a temper. Once I’m angered, blood shall paint the skies.” Reverend Shakya warned the Gleaming Blood Lord sternly once more.
“Bald monk! You better hurry up! What crap are you still spouting to him? Hurry up and take out your treasure!” Looking at how this Reverend Shakya was still yapping nonstop, Lin Fan was feeling exasperated. It was quite the miracle that he could remain alive till now given that character of his.
“Alright. Benefactor, please do not rush me. This poor monk is coming now.” Reverend Shakya nodded his head.
Instantly, Reverend Shakya placed his palms together in prayer and revealed a compassionate and solemn look.
“The world of Buddha’s Land shall purify the masses. May I turn into a Buddha and bring might to all celestial beings!”
A bright radiant Buddha light shone out like a banner as it descended down the back of Reverend Shakya. This light spread out in all directions as a Buddha’s Land floated up from Reverend Shakya’s back.
Heavenly petals were dropping out from all directions as the floor was filled with golden lotuses. The sound of a Buddha was akin to heavenly music. Buddhist dragons, Arhats, and all sorts of phenomenon were appearing around the vicinity of the Buddha’s Land.
The moment Lin Fan caught sight of this, his heart shuddered momentarily. To think that Reverend Shakya would have such methods as well. Indeed, this guy did have some capabilities to him after all.
“Just how many Ancient race beings has this bald monk reformed?”
The only thing Lin Fan could see within the Buddha’s Land was that it was cramped with those vile Ancient race beings. All of these evil Ancient race beings were seated cross-legged with a benevolent look on their faces. Chanting sutras along the way, golden lights of faith were emanated out. As though they were being guided somewhere, they all floated up into the skies of the Paradise.
Within the skies of this Paradise, a single bead of Sarira that possessed a boundless amount of solemnity to it churned repeatedly.
As these Sariras received the power of prayers, an illusory figure of a Buddha appeared with a solemn look on his face. He was flickering as he gradually materialized. As he chanted out his Buddhist sutras, golden scriptures began to float out of his mouth, filling up the entire world.
“The Dragon Elephant Buddha!” The moment the Gleaming Blood Lord caught sight of that illusory figure, his face turned extremely venomous.
The Gleaming Blood Lord would never forget this damned monk in his entire life.
If not for this damned monk, the blood sea within his body would not have dried up into nothingness, and neither would he be in the state he was today. The hatred within him burnt furiously as the boundless rage coiled itself around his heart.
Back then, the three Buddhas had joined forces together to suppress the Gleaming Blood Lord. Amongst them, the Dragon Elephant Buddha sacrificed himself and converted into a boundless amount of supreme might that caused the blood sea of the Gleaming Blood Lord to dry up entirely.
Ever since then, the power level of the Gleaming Blood Lord had depleted to its lowest point. In fact, it was so bad that his entire soul was almost devastated as he disappeared from the world ever since.
If not for the fact that he met with the Utmost Being, Saint, later on, he might have truly just died right there.
However, even now that a thousand years had passed, the Gleaming Blood Lord had yet to recover from his injuries fully. That blood sea of his that was dried up is only now a mere 10% of its peak capacity.
If this weren’t the case, he would have long entered Divine celestial level 10, Eternal God state, instead of being where he was right now.
“Bald monk, not bad, eh? To think that you would have such techniques.” The power of Buddha that was being emitted out by the Sarira was causing Lin Fan to get some slight jitters in fact. What a formidable power of Buddha that was!
The moment Reverend Shakya heard the words of Lin Fan, his heart leaped with joy as he pursed his lips, trying to contain that smile of pride.
“Benefactor, this is the Sarira of the Dragon Elephant Buddha. This contains all of his essence within, and can contain all the demons of this world. Even though this Gleaming Blood Lord may be strong, he would be restricted under this Sarira still!”
“This, coupled with all the Ancient race beings that this poor monk has reformed, would generate a suppressive power that’s more than enough to let the Gleaming Blood Lord take quite a mouthful.”
Reverend Shakya was bursting with confidence right now. Showcasing a treasure of such quality, how could it not shock everyone around?
And furthermore, he had managed to brag a little before Benefactor Lin. This was something absolutely pleasurable for him.
“Alright. Let’s go then!” Lin Fan could feel the powers of the Gleaming Blood Lord being reduced quite significantly. As such, he was filled with confidence in his heart right now.
Bloody hell! He was almost walloped into a dead dog earlier on. Time to get some revenge for himself now!
“Bald monk, I’ll have you dead!” Meeting with his foe had him additionally incensed. This time around, the Gleaming Blood Lord was truly going berserk.
Turning into a long streak of light, the Gleaming Blood Lord burst forth towards Reverend Shakya.
As for Lin Fan, there was no way he could give Gleaming Blood Lord that opportunity. With So Near, Yet So Fear, he crossed a hundred miles instantly as he appeared behind the Gleaming Blood Lord straight away.
Lin Fan slammed out with his fist that took on many forms.
A palm.
A finger.
A chop.
The changes were continuous as all sorts of Skill Spirits were being channeled out.
“Gleaming Blood Lord! Eat the strongest move of Yours Truly!” Lin Fan’s aura was radiant right now and way more encompassing than before. Throwing out a single punch, the entire world started breaking apart as this powerful force tugged the void along. In fact, a single punch like this could shatter a world by itself.
“Evil demon! This poor monk shall accord you with a cleansing Buddha fist! Do receive it properly!” The face of Reverend Shakya was compassionate right now as millions of Buddhas swiveled around the knuckles of that fist he just sent out.
“Both of you are courting death!!!” The Gleaming Blood Lord roared out as a limitless amount of Blood Qi began to rumble out.
Just as that fist of Reverend Shakya was about to make contact with the body of the Gleaming Blood Lord, Reverend Shakya’s expression tensed up all the more. The fist suddenly transformed into two fingers that changed their directions.
“Angered Buddha’s Eye Pokers!”
“F*ck! Bald monk! You’re really way too sinister!” Looking at how the attack methods of the bald monk had changed suddenly, Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. However, when he saw how the attacks were directed towards the eyes of the Gleaming Blood Lord, he started chuckling out as well.
“Benefactor, you too, you too!” Reverend Shakya turned over to Lin Fan. He was thoroughly impressed with that low blow that Lin Fan had just pulled off as well.
“AHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
The combined attacks of these two men had the Gleaming Blood Lord wailing out. A strong surge of energy repelled both Lin Fan and Reverend Shakya away.
This tremendous amount of energy found itself infiltrating the bodies of Lin Fan and Reverend Shakya.
“Bald monk! Even though this is the repressed Gleaming Blood Lord, he is still pretty horrifying!” Lin Fan warned out cautiously as his lips were now dirtied with his blood.
“That’s right! However, I’ve got to say that the move you’ve just deployed was simply way too fabulous, benefactor! To think that it would deal such immense damage to the Gleaming Blood Lord!” Reverend Shakya was stunned by how tragic the Gleaming Blood Lord looked right now.
“Hoho… That goes without saying. This is a skill that can create the Heavens itself, one which possesses the Dao of the world. No matter who it is, there is no way they’ll be able to endure something like this.” The moment this Twisting Heaven and Earth of Lin Fan was deployed, it would bring forth with it an incredible amount of mysterious powers.
“Damn it. DAMN IT!!!” At this moment, the Gleaming Blood Lord was blinded in both eyes while his groin area was being consumed by pain.
“Gleaming Blood Lord, you’ve lost completely. There is no way you can defend against this Twisting Heaven and Earth from Yours Truly. Anyone who is struck by it shall suffer a pain so deadly there’s no way you can even describe it. If you’ve got any last words, now’s the time to say them.” Lin Fan was filled with confidence towards this move of his. Even if Spirit of Biggra had no use, there was no way Twisting Heaven and Earth could be blocked against.
“D-DESPICABLE FELLA…!” The Gleaming Blood Lord croaked out hoarsely.
Lin Fan and Reverend Shakya exchanged knowing looks at one another and sniggered out, “You too, you too…!”
