Chapter 850: There’s Nothing Wrong With These Words!

“His cultivation state rose just like that?”

“Why do I get the feeling that I’m dreaming!?”

Xuan’er’s little comrades were long stunned. This was especially when they caught sight of how the cultivation state of that little comrade of theirs had soared like a rocket. They could no longer stay steady.

Step by step, they had painstakingly, relentlessly, diligently, slowly, and tirelessly raised their cultivation states. The reason for that was because they did not want to accidentally veer off the right path and turn insane or something. But, look what happened now! That little comrade of theirs had literally soared just like that!

And, it was a direct ascension into the Heavens, without any hesitation at all!

Even the little fella, whose cultivation state had increased, was equally astounded at this moment.

“Erm, I’m a Desolate celestial full cultivation state being just like that?” Huo Dong raised his head in bewilderment and looked at Lin Fan blankly.

“That’s right. What’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere or anything? But, that shouldn’t be right too! I gave you a thorough check just now. You seem perfectly well!”

Looking at the expression on this little fella’s face, Lin Fan thought that something was wrong.

Huo Dong’s emotions right now were as though he had just taken a rollercoaster ride and was unable to steady his nerves for a long, long time. His potential could be considered average. For him to get to this cultivation state, he had endured countless trials and tribulations.

By the time he got to Desolate celestial lower level cultivation state, he felt as though he had already used up all of his innate potential. Towards his path from that point forth, he no longer bore much hope.

If he wanted to cultivate up to a Desolate celestial full cultivation state, it would probably be impossible for him unless he met some encounter or something.

But right now, in just a mere few seconds at most, his cultivation state had leaped all the way up to Desolate celestial full cultivation state! If word of this were to get out, it would shock quite a number of people!

Thud.

At this moment, Huo Dong collapsed onto his knees before Lin Fan. With a look of reverence on his face, it was as most he would take Lin Fan as his only idol for the rest of his life from this point forth.

“My gratitude for your help, senior! My gratitude for your help, senior…!!!”

In his entire lifetime, Huo Dong hadn’t really bowed down to anyone. But at this moment, he was thoroughly convinced. This senior before him was not a human! This was a God!

Within the Ancient Saint World, the raising of cultivation states was still something that one had to be extremely wary about. That was because it would result in the instability of one’s cultivation root. But, even at this point, Huo Dong did not notice anything wrong with his body. It was as though every single cultivation state had been climbed up by him on his own, all the way to this full cultivation state.

“What are you doing? As a man, why are you kneeling? Hurry up and get up. I was the one who gave you the wrong pill earlier on. It’s my problem. Therefore, I was the one who had wronged you instead! The joy of cultivation is not about whose cultivation state is the highest. It’s the sense of satisfaction one gets after enduring all the hardships!”

“And without a single peep, I brought your cultivation state all the way up to Desolate celestial full cultivation state, causing you to miss out on all the joy in the process. But, it was only lucky that there wasn’t any greater price to be paid!”

Lin Fan lamented regrettably.

“No! Please don’t say that, senior! The kindness of senior will be something that this young one will remember in his heart deeply!” Huo Dong replied emotionally at this moment.

How could Huo Dong not be emotional right now? Even though Desolate celestial full cultivation state wasn’t an extremely high cultivation state, he could still be considered as a pretty decent powerful being. Even a Legatus of the Ancient race did not have a cultivation state of this level!

Back when they met a Legatus of the Ancient race, they could only scram. But right now, Huo Dong could stand a chance against one!

“Hais! Thankfully, I had only mistakenly taken out a Triple Energy Pill earlier on. If I had missed a little further off and taken out the Rainbow King Pill instead, your cultivation state might have even bolted all the way up to a Divine celestial level 4, Undying state! By then, that would be a huge dip in the joys in your path of cultivation! But thankfully, I didn’t pick that up. That is the silver lining in this mistake!”

Lin Fan said with some trepidation in his heart.

This thing about cultivation was huge! The feeling of every single cultivation state was an experience on its own. If not for this experience, what was the meaning of even cultivating?

Just like Lin Fan himself, who had climbed up every single step up through chopping down monsters… How wonderful was that feeling?

“EH?”

When the little comrades of Xuan’er heard those words, they were completely confounded.

What did that mean?

To think that jumping 3 cultivation states in a go wasn’t enough, there was even a pill that could jump all the way to a Divine celestial level 4, Undying state!

T-this…!

Convinced. Everyone was thoroughly convinced and speechless right now.

When Huo Dong heard these words, he seemed a little disappointed. Why didn’t senior make a mistake earlier on? If he did, Huo Dong would have been willing to be bumped up to a Divine celestial level 4 state!

But, when he thought about what he had just gained, Huo Dong felt that he had already benefited from it. If not for senior, God knew when he could have actually raised his own cultivation state to Desolate celestial full cultivation on his own.

“Senior, that skill you gave me earlier on…!” A young brat spoke up.

She had looked through that skill book earlier on. However, she felt that it was a little profound. Given her current cultivation state and experience, she could not make out what sort of mystifying effects that skill could produce.

But in her opinion, any skill given by senior must be something extraordinary. Although, it would still be better for her to clarify things at this point. At least, she could have a sense of direction in her heart.

“Oh, that skill? Let me think. Oh, right. I got that after killing the Utmost Being Saint. It’s a top of the line skill only for females. Once you cultivate it to its peak and enter the Dao, the power that can be produced will be pretty decent. There aren’t many issues with the cultivation process in the early stages as well.”

Lin Fan replied after recalling for a moment.

These were skills that Lin Fan couldn’t even be bothered with. He had wanted to throw them away initially. But, he thought about it and figured that there might be some uses for them in the future. By the looks of it, it was indeed serving some purpose right now.

“HUH?!” The moment the brat heard it, her entire face froze up. A skill that he had obtained after killing Utmost Being Saint? This was something way too terrifying for her!

Any skill that was kept by the Utmost Being couldn’t possibly be weak, right?

T-this…!!!

“Big Brother Lin, I heard that forcefully raising one’s cultivation state would cause some sort of impact towards one’s path in the future, wouldn’t it?” Xuan’er knew that Lin Fan was extremely strong. But, she hadn’t expected him to be THIS strong.

Even though her Master was the Female Empress, she didn’t have the same formidable capabilities!

“Yes, there IS indeed that issue.” Lin Fan nodded his head, agreeing with Xuan’er’s opinion.

“Senior, it’s fine! I’m already really satisfied!” Huo Dong declared with a look of gratitude on his face. He thought that senior here was feeling guilty over the fact that his cultivation root might be unstable due to this forceful raise of his cultivation state.

But, to Huo Dong, if not for the fact that senior had raised his cultivation state, it might be difficult for him to cultivate to this state even if it took him his lifetime.

“There’s definitely no issue. The raising of one’s cultivation state would definitely bring forth issues. But, for those who face issues, it’s because they themselves are the ones who are lacking in their own physical strength. Don’t worry about that. When I raised your strength, I had long stabilized your cultivation root along with it. There will definitely be no problems.”

Lin Fan replied calmly before looking at Xuan’er.

“Who did you hear this from?”

Xuan’er was stunned. For a moment, she was speechless. How could she possibly say that she had heard it from her Master? She then acted dumb, “Xuan’er has forgotten.”

Far in the distance, the Female Empress bore a troubled look. She had heard the conversation. While she felt bad about it, she couldn’t say anything about it.

There was nothing wrong with those words! Yet, how did it sound like everything was wrong through Lin Fan’s explanation?

However, at least Xuan’er had the thought to cover up for her Master.

“Alright, all of you little fellas have been working hard. With that, I’ll give you guys a round of blessings then.” Lin Fan chuckled out.

He then stretched open his fingers and encompassed everyone around. The Female Empress was perplexed, not knowing what Lin Fan was trying to do.

But all of a sudden, she was flabbergasted.

Everything before her seemed so surreal.

Chapter 851: My Master Has A Heart Of Glass!

Lin Fan raised the potential of Xuan’er and those little comrades of hers.

In reality, this Trainer profession was extremely sick. Given enough time, Lin Fan could definitely groom a huge batch of powerful beings steadily.

The moment he thought of this, Lin Fan slapped his head.

“Bloody hell! Were the brains of Yours Truly caught in the middle of doors? Back when I used Hundred Years in A Single Thought, why didn’t I think of raising the potential of everyone in Xuanhuang World?”

“AIYAH! Holy f*ck! To think that I could even forget something as such! How am I to live with myself?”

At this moment, Lin Fan was regretting. However, one might as well forget it. Since he had missed it, what else could he say about it?

“Big Brother Lin, what’s going on? Xuan’er feels as though there’s a door being opened up in my mind!” Right now, Xuan’er was no longer the little brat who knew nothing. Thanks to the Female Empress, she naturally had some sort of an understanding towards the path of cultivation by now.

But even then, the current situation had Xuan’er feeling stumped, because it was as though a door had opened up abruptly within her mind. With that, a mysterious aura flowed into her body. This was a mystifying feeling that was impossible to be described.

“This…!”

The Female Empress floated over with a look of astonishment on her face. She could not believe what she was seeing right now. She had discovered that Xuan’er’s potential had been raised indefinitely! This was something that made no sense at all to the Female Empress!

Raising another’s innate potential with just one’s strength without depending on any treasures of the world? This was something that was absolutely impossible!

But even if it were impossible, the facts were laid bare right before her eyes. She had no choice but to believe in it.

“Hush, don’t get hasty now.”

When Lin Fan saw the Female Empress approaching, he indicated for her to be silent. The Female Empress was taken aback as she shut up immediately. In her mind, it must be extremely difficult to raise someone’s innate potential. If her disciple were to miss out on a miraculous encounter as such because of her, she would never be able to live with herself.

Not long after, Lin Fan’s hand motions came to a stop.

“You’re raising their innate potentials?” The Female Empress asked with an incredulous look on her face.

“Yes, a casual raise here and there would do them some good.” Lin Fan chuckled out as though he had just done something extremely normal.

“Master, what’s innate potential?” Xuan’er was confused at this point as though she had yet to recover to her senses. But all of a sudden, when she sensed the changes going on in her body, that little face of hers was startled.

“Eh?! My innate potential has grown!”

“Mine too!”

“I feel like my cultivation state’s about to be raised! The barriers that I’ve once found difficult to cross are actually looking pretty easy right now!”

All the little comrades of Xuan’er were getting startled together, finding everything difficult to believe.

“Big Brother Lin…!” Xuan’er looked at Lin Fan with an astounded look.

Lin Fan smiled calmly while waving it off, “You and your little comrades here all are pretty decent. Therefore, I’ve just casually raised your innate potentials so that you guys can have a smooth sailing path in cultivation.”

“And you call this casual?!” The Female Empress looked at Lin Fan in a perplexed way. Capabilities as such were practically enough to rattle the entire world! If the thousands of races were to catch wind of such an ability, wouldn’t they just soar in the future?

At this moment, the face of the Female Empress changed as a thought struck her. Noticing how the potential of her own disciple was even higher than hers right now, the Female Empress could not help but feel a little envious.

In order to raise her innate potential, the Female Empress had thought of up all sorts of ideas. She had popped endless elixirs and pills as well. Therefore, her innate potential naturally had seen some changes.

But, looking at how Lin Fan could raise the innate potential of her disciple to this extent with just a casual wave of his hand, she could not help but harbor some thoughts.

If her own innate potential were to be increased, how nice would that be? That would mean quite the jump in her own capabilities as well!

“This…” Even though the Female Empress was dying for it in her heart, how was she supposed to say this out loud? The Female Empress had an ego as well. How could she initiate the conversation to request for the other party to raise her cultivation state?

At this moment, the Female Empress cast her sights towards her disciple. If her disciple were to speak up for her, there might be a chance at this!

Xuan’er was undoubtedly the little heart warmer of the Female Empress. A single expression and a single motion was all it took for Xuan’er to understand her intent.

“Big Brother Linnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn…!” Xuan’er tugged at Lin Fan’s arm and said in a coquettish manner. Looking at how close Xuan’er was with senior, all her little comrades could not help but feel envious. They knew that senior was really easy-going. However, in front of him, they still watched their manners and would not act as Xuan’er would.

“Why, you little brat? What are you up to again?” Lin Fan asked, chuckling.

“Big Brother Lin, could you help my Master raise her innate potential too?” Xuan’er asked secretly.

“Oh?” Lin Fan raised his brows and looked over at the Female Empress. As though she was embarrassed, the Female Empress turned her head away, acting like she had just remembered something.

“Xuan’er, you can’t be rude now. Your Master’s innate potential doesn’t require any raising at all.”

This was called putting out a long line to catch the big fish. The Female Empress felt that it was better to act more reserved right now. If she were to act like she was asking for a raise in potential the moment her disciple brought up this topic, that would be too shameful!

“But Master, you’ve gathered so many materials and cultivated so many pills all for the sake of raising your innate potential! Even then, it has all been useless! Now that Big Brother Lin can raise one’s innate potential, how great would that be for you?” Xuan’er pressed the issue further.

“Cough!”

“Xuan’er, Your Master has no need for it.” The Female Empress replied.

She was waiting for that one sentence. All would be fine as long as Lin Fan said, “We’ll give it a raise then.”

The Female Empress would then agree to it as though she was put in a spot. That would put her out as someone who wasn’t all that thirsty for it. At the same time, the other party would be the one who asked for it.

Lin Fan looked at this act between Master and Disciple, then sniggered out in his heart at that moment. Even if this mother*cker wanted to act in front of Yours Truly, she had to make it somewhat more realistic!

“Oh, Xuan’er! Since your Master says that she doesn’t need it, then let’s forget about it. We don’t want your Master to be unhappy now, do we?”

“Now, raising one’s innate potential is no small affair. It’s huge! The reason why I raised your innate potentials was because you guys are young and driven. As for your Master, she’s not really all that young now, and is practically at the end of her path. Therefore, there’s no point whether we raise her potential or not.” Lin Fan explained.

This was him exacting revenge on her for everything that had happened in the Xuanhuang World!

“HUH?!”

“AH!”

Both the Female Empress and Xuan’er were completely stunned at this moment.

The Female Empress could feel a burning sensation on her face. Those eyes on that ravishing face of hers opened wide as she turned around to leave, as though she had just been dealt with some immense pain.

What did he mean by ‘not all that young now’? Was Your Mother really that old?!?!?!?!?!?

“Master!” Xuan’er shouted after her.

“Don’t come over. Your Master has something to do. You just have a good time with your FRIEND there.” The voice of the Female Empress was a little different now as though she had just received tons of grievances.

“Aiyah! Big Brother Lin, how could you say it like that? My Master has a heart of glass, and is really easily hurt!” Xuan’er stamped her feet in a huff.

“Huh?!” Lin Fan was startled. Heart of glass? It couldn’t be, right?

“Big Brother Lin, let me tell you this in secret.” Xuan’er cupped Lin Fan’s ears and whispered softly, “My Master has a really fragile heart! Even though my Master may put on a strong front on the outside, she is extremely sensitive in her heart, and will often shed tears alone!”

“Gosh, and a little brat like you even knows what’s sensitive!” Lin Fan chuckled out.

“Of course, I know what it is!” Xuan’er pursed her lips while saying.

“Then, shall your Big Brother Lin head over to console your Master for a little bit?” Lin Fan continued asking while chuckling.

“Needless to say! Big Brother Lin, this was all caused by you, you know?” Xuan’er replied.

“That makes sense.”

Chapter 852: Someone Is Making A Tribute

A beautiful lone figure stood on a fresh patch of grass near the riverside.

Lin Fan’s words had a huge impact on her. To think that he would say that she was not all that young, and that this was the most she would amount to! This was something that the Female Empress had difficulty in accepting.

Cough cough.

Lin Fan coughed gently as he walked over from the distance, “Ah, Female Empress, it was actually just a misunderstanding earlier on. Actually…”

“King Lin, you don’t have to say anything. I understand it myself. If there’s nothing else, I would like to have a moment of silence alone.” The Female Empress replied coldly. However, there were subtle hints brought by her tone that one would make out as long as they weren’t a retard. Right now, the Female Empress was angry and unhappy.

However, this couldn’t be helped. Even though the strength of the Female Empress was tantamount to the Heavens, she was a girl at the end of the day, and would naturally love the compliments of others unlike what Lin Fan had just done by insulting her the moment he spoke out.

How was the Female Empress supposed to feel about this? Furthermore, this was in front of her disciple. She had no way of placing her dignity any longer.

When Lin Fan looked at that figure, he shook his head helplessly. He was only bearing some grudges over what happened in the past. Since he had already made his choice to not f*ck her over back and forth, he had to at least get something off his chest through his mouth. But, who would have thought that this Female Empress cultivated her strength and not her heart, and would still have such a fragile heart!

“A moment of silence alone isn’t comparable to a moment of silence between two people.” Regardless of whether the Female Empress consented to it, Lin Fan walked over and stood beside her. He then inhaled deeply, “Wow! The air here is really fresh! Once the Ancient race is overthrown, the world can finally have peace returned to it, and the beings of the thousands of races will finally be free to roam the lands without living such fearful lives any longer!”

The Female Empress looked at Lin Fan, “Aren’t you quite the shameless man?”

“Shameless? I’d say, Female Empress, aren’t you a little too venomous with your words?” Lin Fan rebutted.

“I AM venomous?” The moment the Female Empress heard this, her face blew up immediately.

“That’s right. Back in the Xuanhuang World, that strand of consciousness of yours was indeed extremely venomous to destroy my sect. What do you say?” Lin Fan asked. As though he had remembered something all of a sudden, he continued, “Oh, right. I’ve been meaning to ask a question. Why did you fight so hard for that God Blood back then?”

“It’s been too long. Forgotten. Since you feel that the scenery here is good, you can enjoy it all by yourself.” The Female Empress did not want to say too much as she turned around to leave.

She would have never expected that the ant in her eyes back then, that fella who was barely hanging onto his life, would have grown to this extent.

Even she herself wasn’t a match for him anymore.

“Forget it. Since it’s over, let it be over then. But, it’s just a pity about those lovely days back then.” Lin Fan lamented.

In the blink of an eye, a couple of years had passed. While things might have remained constant, people had changed.

“Your innate potential isn’t something that pills can help to grow any further. You have already consumed all the pills that can help you with your innate potential. Unless there is some heavenly miracle that happens, there is practically no other way your innate potential can change anymore.” Lin Fan said.

“I know that.” The Female Empress nodded her head. It was just as Lin Fan had said, she was unable to raise her innate potential any longer. Or perhaps, it was more accurate to say that this was her limit.

If she wanted to raise her innate potential once more, she would have to depend on some miraculous encounter.

But, how could that encounter come by this easily?

“Alright, let me give you a raise in your innate potential. Who knows when the Infinite Worlds will open up. Therefore, it’d be good to raise your strength in the meantime.” Lin Fan raised his hand and hovered it over the head of the Female Empress.

“What are you doing?” The Female Empress shirked back and looked at Lin Fan in shock.

“Raising your innate potential?” Lin Fan replied in bewilderment. “If I wish to raise one’s innate potential, I would have to touch their heads. Why? Is there any issue?”

The Female Empress looked at Lin Fan. That frosty face of hers let out a troubled look.

She was THE Female Empress, an existence that was revered by the masses! But, to think that she would have her head touched by someone right now! This…!

But, the Female Empress wanted to raise her innate potential at the same time. Eventually, she nodded her head in agreement.

Lin Fan chuckled out while placing his palm on the head of the Female Empress. This feeling was pretty decent, similar to guiding a young child along.

‘Fondle it a little!’

‘So obedient!’

“Have you not started?” The Female Empress was feeling a little uneasy about getting touched now. It was probably a long, long time ago when she was last touched on the head by someone else. Back then, the Female Empress wasn’t the Female Empress yet, and was just a little girl who wanted the love and adoration of her parents.

“I’m starting now. Don’t speak.” Lin Fan said with an indifferent expression. However, he was overwhelmed with joy in his heart!

The both of them stood there with Lin Fan’s palm fondling the head of the Female Empress. He tapped her head lightly with his fingers as though he was pampering a child he loved.

The Female Empress lowered her head. Within the depths of those snow white cheeks of hers, one could tell of some slight blushing.

She sent out her consciousness and ascertained that there was no one else in the vicinity, then heaved out a sigh of relief. If she were to be seen like this by anyone else, where would she be able to hide her face?

“Is it not done yet?” The Female Empress was feeling a little weird right now. There was a sensation she could not describe.

“Soon, soon.”

Lin Fan chuckled out. Feeling that it was about time, he then had no choice but to kickstart his Trainer module.

SHING!

The potential of the Female Empress hadn’t been expended entirely just yet. At this moment, the face of the Female Empress changed. She could sense the changes that were running through her body. Within her Inner World, there seemed to be a locked door that was now being slammed at with an immense pressure!

BOOM!

The door shone with an unparalleled brilliance as a mysterious power spread out from beyond it.

It was opening! To think that it would be opening up now!

The face of the Female Empress changed. This was her final door! But no matter how hard she tried and how many methods she used, this door still remained unyielding regardless!

But, to think that it would show signs of loosening at this moment! This was an indescribable joy for her!

BOOM!

And just as the Female Empress was overwhelmed with joy, the door opened up entirely.

The mysterious energy that had accumulated for a long time now finally gushed out and cruised through her entire body. A series of luminescent lights shone through the head of the Female Empress and lit up the entire world.

“My innate potential has really been raised!” The Female Empress exclaimed out in exhilaration. That breathtaking face of hers was shining with an endless radiance as well.

“It’s nothing too difficult.”

Lin Fan retracted his hands and placed them behind his back while saying out with a calm face.

Sensing the changes in her body, the Female Empress turned around to Lin Fan, “Thank you.”

“Huehue.” Lin Fan chuckled out, “Small matter.”

While this was truly a small matter to Lin Fan, this was quite a significant deal for the Female Empress.

And just as Lin Fan was ready to say something once more, his face changed as his expression started turning grim.

“What’s wrong?” Noticing how Lin Fan was looking slightly off, she could not help but feel nervous, thinking that something big had happened.

At this moment, the Ancient Saint Sacrificial Altar that was floating within his Inner World was vibrating violently.

Someone was offering a tribute!

Within the Ancient Saint Sacrificial Altar, there were a series of sacrificial chants that were revolving around it.

“I shall sacrifice my body to bring forth protection for the Cloud Sect!”

The power of sacrifice was extremely strong right now. It was a powerful being who was sacrificing himself. And, it must be an unusually strong enemy for them to be able to push this powerful being to this extent.

Lin Fan delved into the sacrificial altar and caught sight of a distant land through it. The Grandmaster of the Cloud Sect was burning up everything of him right now. Using his body, he was going to exchange it for the future of the Cloud Sect.

“I’ve got something on. I’ll be leaving first.”

Lin Fan did not say anything more to the Female Empress. Right after he said those words, he left the place and headed straight for the Cloud Sect.

Chapter 853: A Single Sword Slice.

That once peaceful and beautiful Cloud Sect was no longer the same right now. In its place, the structures were derelict and the skies were almost stained red.

In the Ancient Saint World, the Cloud Sect could be considered as a major sect. There were a myriad of disciples under them from all the different races.

Even the Grandmaster had had the strength of the formidable Divine celestial level 8 state. Not only that, he had even broken through the barrier recently and had leveled to Divine celestial level 9, Eight Desolates United state.

All the elders under them were godly as well, with an immense strength not to be looked down upon. But, even if that were the case, the sect was still faced with the calamity of destruction today.

A relentless assault for three days and three nights had left those previously sturdy barriers of the Cloud Sect to be breached entirely.

Within the void…

The disciples of the Cloud Sect were glaring at a cluster of black figures far in the distance with an infuriated look on their faces.

“Grandmaster Yun, you guys have been hiding in this pocket dimension with its fortified barriers that cannot be broken through. But, under the might of the Colossal Shark’s God Ark, any defenses shall be taken down.”

A gigantic battle ark that spanned several hundred thousand miles in length shone with a godly glow. In order to push a godly ark that was this huge, it would require at least thirty Divine celestial level 8 state powerful beings to expend their fullest powers so that it could sustain its motion.

And at this moment on the God Ark, there was a humanoid living being with a shark head that stood there imposingly with an unparalleled might. This was one of the Top Ten Old Ancient Beast races, the Colossal Shark race.

“To think that the Colossal Shark race would defect over to the Ancient race.” Grandmaster Yun glared at the void coldly and scolded out.

“A wise man recognizes his circumstances. The fortune of the Cloud Sect has dispersed. For the Cloud Sect to dare to pit itself against the Ancient race, there was only death awaiting them. With orders from the Ancient race, the Cloud Sect shall be uprooted entirely!”

Sha Jingwang… He was one of the twelve Godly Beings of the Colossal Shark race. His strength was monstrous, and his powers torrential. With the orders of the Ancient race this time around, he had come forth to take down the Cloud Sect entirely.

“All of you b*stards… Are you guys really going to betray the sect?!” Meng Hengtian glared at some people on the gigantic ark with an enraged look.

He hadn’t expected that there would be some elders from the sect who would betray them, resulting in the Cloud Sect’s location being revealed. At the same time, this allowed the Colossal Shark race to rapidly break through the defenses of the sect’s barriers.

This pocket dimension was opened up by the Founder Ancestor, and should provide enough protection for them to resist the attacks of the Ancient race. But, under this Utmost Treasure God Ark of the Colossal Shark race, it was broken through without putting up any resistance at all.

All of the traitorous elders changed their expressions before replying casually, “Meng Hengtian, siding with the Ancient race is the only choice! If you were to surrender and conform to the Ancient race, perhaps we might be able to spare your lives! Otherwise, death is the only path that awaits you!”

“Bullsh*t! Even if Your Father were to die, there’s no way I’m going to collude with you spineless and conniving scums!” Meng Hengtian hollered out.

When some of the disciples of the Cloud Sect caught sight of the situation, their hearts skipped a beat as they could not help but feel a tingling of fear. Within the void, that imposingly looking Colossal Shark race was giving them immense pressure.

As one of the Top Ten Old Ancient Beast races, their strength was nothing to be scoffed at. It was definitely not something they could deal with.

“Hmph!”

Just at this moment, a roar burst forth. Sha Jingwang wielded a Sea God Staff in his hands and struck the ground with it furiously. Instantly, the world trembled as a gigantic wave surged up and enveloped the entire world in it.

“Hengtian, take the disciples and return first.” Grandmaster Yun knew that there was no other way to fight this anymore.

In the past, the Cloud Sect had only managed to survive by relying on this pocket dimension that was cleaved out by the Founder Ancestor in the past. But, now that the barriers had been broken, there was no way to defend against the attacks of the Colossal Shark race at all.

Grandmaster Yun knew that the Infinite Worlds must be on the brink of opening right now. Otherwise, the Ancient race wouldn’t be in such a rush to clean up all the sects and races.

“Grandmaster, what about you?” Meng Hengtian asked worriedly.

“I’ll be fine. Hurry and take the disciples back into the sect immediately.” Grandmaster Yun said.

“Hongyun.” After hesitating for a moment, Meng Hengtian shouted out.

“Elder.” Fairy Hongyun floated over with a grim look on her face. She could see that the situation was dire for the Cloud Sect this time around.

“Take the disciples and retreat back into the sect. Leave everything here to the Grandmaster and me.” Meng Hengtian ordered.

“Yes.” Fairy Hongyun replied without thinking twice. Given the urgency of the situation, there was naturally no need for her to overthink things.

“Grandmaster. I know what you’re thinking. However, this will require the both of us to join hands.”

Meng Hengtian naturally knew what the Grandmaster was thinking about. However, this wasn’t an affair for the Grandmaster to shoulder alone. This was something that concerned the entire Cloud Sect.

They had to retain seeds of hope for the Cloud Sect. How could the Cloud Sect perish here just like this? As long as they could allow the entire Cloud Sect to leave this place safely, even if they had to sacrifice themselves, it would be all worth it.

“Hmph! You want to save the younger generation? Dream on! This time around, we shall have the Cloud Sect annihilated from the Ancient Saint World entirely! What are you guys still waiting for? Seal the place!” Sha Jingwang shouted out.

“What?”

Instantly, the faces of Grandmaster Yun and the others changed. Since God knew when, some of the other elders of the sect had already entirely betrayed them and sealed up the entrance to the sect completely, not letting even a single disciple through.

A bright flash of light burst forth. Some of the disciples who were about to enter the sect were immediately minced into dust.

“Wang Tianlong! Zhen Huoli! What are you guys doing?” Meng Hengtian’s eyes were practically popping out with fiery blazes burning out of them. He could not believe everything that had just happened.

“Your King here has said it. Wise men know their circumstances. These two elders have already submitted over to the Ancient race.” Sha Jingwang continued.

All of the remaining disciples could only retreat back continuously before returning to the side of Grandmaster Yun. For these disciples, everything that had happened right now had already left their hearts completely frozen in fear.

‘Grandmaster, what should we do now?” Fairy Hongyun had not expected that there would be elders in the sect who would betray them and cut off their exit path. These disciples had nowhere left to run now!

The positions of these two elders weren’t all that low in the sect as well and were pretty formidable. While they might not be comparable to Grandmaster Yun, they were Divine celestial level 7 state beings as well.

Now that there were these two elders blocking at the entrance, there was basically no disciple who could pass through at all.

“HAHAHA!”

Suddenly at this moment, Grandmaster Yun laughed out shrilly, “To think that at this critical moment, the ones who would bring the Cloud Sect to its doom would be the elders that the Cloud Sect has painstakingly raised!”

“The Ancient race has ruled over the entire Ancient Saint World. Everything is because of our own doings!”

“Forget it. Even if I have to die today, I’ll ensure that there’re still seeds of hope for the Cloud Sect!”

“TRIBUTE!”

Grandmaster Yun bellowed out as his aura skyrocketed up. At this very moment, Grandmaster Yun had no other choice but to sacrifice himself for the sake of preserving these seeds of hope.

The powers of Sha Jingwang weren’t something that he could go up against.

“GRANDMASTER, NO!” Everyone from the Cloud Sect screamed out instantly. They hadn’t expected that their Grandmaster would sacrifice himself!

“I’ll sacrifice everything in exchange for the safe departure of the Cloud Sect!”

BOOM!

A light beam caged up Grandmaster Yun and pierced right through the Heavens. The face of Sha Jingwang tensed up. He hadn’t expected that Grandmaster Yun would sacrifice himself!

“Hengtian, I shall leave the Cloud Sect in your hands.” Grandmaster Yun said.

“GRANDMASTER…!”

Meng Hengtian howled out. However, he knew that he had no way of stopping the Grandmaster at this moment. This was probably the one way to retain some seeds of hope for the Cloud Sect right now.

EH!?

All of a sudden, the power of sacrifice vanished entirely as Grandmaster Yun looked at everything in disbelief.

“How could this be?”

“HAHAHA…!” When Sha Jingwang caught sight of this, he burst out laughing. If the sacrifice had taken place, he might truly not have been able to withstand it. But, now that the sacrificial process had been cut midway as though it was severed, Sha Jingwang could not help but burst out in laughter.

“Seems like even the Heavens have abandoned you guys from the Cloud Sect! This is truly doomsday for the Cloud Sect!”

“SUPPRESS THEM!”

Sha Jingwang waved out with his hands as all the living beings of the Colossal Shark race on the God Ark roared out. These imposingly ferocious Colossal Shark race beings opened their menacing mouths and attacked the Cloud Sect members.

As for the cannon on the Colossal Shark God Ark, it was gathering a beam of light that then bolted out into the void with a loud bang.

When the disciples fo the Cloud Sect caught sight of that light beam, they could only stand there in a daze. The power of the light beam wasn’t something they could possibly defend against!

And just at the moment when the disciples of the Cloud Sect thought that death had arrived, a sharp sword flash burst down from the sky and stood tall before their faces.

This sword flash was incredibly immense as it slashed out ferociously.

Instantly, the light beam was sliced cleanly into two.

Chapter 854: A Single Palm To Destroy The Enemies

“WHAT?”

When Sha Jingwang caught sight of that cannon shot from the Colossal Shark God Ark being sliced apart by a single sword flash, he leaped up in shock, not knowing what had just happened.

But, this wasn’t the most startling thing awaiting Sha Jingwang.

Within the void, a single tear that was ripped open! This tear was incomparably pitch black, and a gigantic hand descended down from within. Tugging furiously, the hand grabbed all the Colossal Shark race beings in the void and gave a squeeze. Instantly, the sky was filled with blood spraying out everywhere as their remains were rained down onto the ground.

“WHO…? WHO’S THERE?!” Sha Jingwang howled out. He hadn’t expected that something as such would happen at this critical moment!

When all of these disciples of the Cloud Sect, who were already prepared for death, saw everything before their eyes, they were completely confounded.

This was way too strong, wasn’t it?

At the same time, a question popped into their minds. Who could it be?

“Gosh, you’ve really got some guts there to want to destroy the sect of my friend, eh?”

A set of white robes fluttered in the wind as a figure with hands behind his back walked out briskly. That calm expression showed that he wasn’t fazed by anything before him in the least bit.

“Lin Fan…!”

When Grandmaster Yun caught sight of that figure, he could not help but gasp out in disbelief.

“It’s been a long time, Grandmaster Yun. However, if not for your sacrifice, I might not even have known that the Cloud Sect had met with something as such.” Lin Fan said.

But indeed, that was the case. Even if Lin Fan’s powers were godly right now, if Grandmaster Yun hadn’t initiated the sacrifice, he wouldn’t have been able to sense it.

Seemed like this Ancient Saint Sacrificial Altar wasn’t entirely useless after all. Perhaps he could tell those people he was familiar with to hurry and sacrifice if they ever met with any problems. Maybe he could still make it in time with that.

Within the ranks of the Cloud Sect, there were some people who did not know of Lin Fan and who in the world he was.

But, as for Fairy Hongyun and the others, they couldn’t be any more familiar with him.

“Who is this powerful being?”

“That’s right! He was the one who had saved us earlier on! Also, he seems extremely friendly with our Grandmaster! Does this mean that we’re safe now?”

“You guys ought to know him. He’s the Motherf*cking Human King.”

“What! He’s THE Motherfcking Human King?! THAT Motherfcking Human King who is able to stand up against the Utmost Beings of the Ancient race?”

“That guy’s my idol! To think that I would be able to see the Motherf*cking Human King in my lifetime!”

At this moment, every single person within the Cloud Sect started cheering out. While others might not know about it, they were thoroughly familiar with the Motherf*cking Human King.

That was because a long time ago, there was a live broadcast that was embedded in their memories. That was the only hero who could stand up against the Utmost Beings of the Ancient race!

“Who are you?” Sha Jingwang looked at Lin Fan warily. At the same time, his heart was burning with rage.

With just a single move, this fella had killed countless of his underlings!

Lin Fan turned his head around and looked at that vast, gigantic ark. He then chuckled out while asking, “One of the Top Ten Old Ancient Beast races, the Colossal Shark race… I wonder when you guys defected over to the side of the Ancient race?”

“Hmph! The Colossal Shark race has always been the most loyal followers of the Ancient race?” Sha Jingwang retorted.

“Since you guys are the loyal dogs of the Ancient race, then you have no rights to know who Yours Truly is. Just go to hell then, will ya?”

Towards ants like these, Lin Fan basically did not have that much of an interest. He then lifted his palm gently. Under the single slap of that palm, the world began to explode out all of a sudden. From the void, that gigantic palm crushed down in the direction of the Colossal Shark God Ark.

“BRAZEN!” Sha Jingwang bellowed out. As he gave the Sea God Staff in his hands a hard knock, the void broke out into waves. Layers after layers, the waves crashed against that palm strike.

“Anyone who has the guts to kill Colossal Shark race beings only has death awaiting them!” Sha Jingwang hollered.

Those torrential waves surged furiously before turning into a gigantic shark. This shark was akin to a Heaven Shark with two fins on its back as it opened up that humongous bloodied mouth.

BAM!

In the blink of an eye, Lin Fan caught this Heaven Shark in his palms. With a gentle squeeze, it exploded out.

“Impossible! That’s impossible!” Sha Jingwang was taken aback, showing a face of incredulity. It was as though he could not believe that this guy could take down a Heaven Shark with just a single palm!

But, things were never that simple. After crushing that Heaven Shark, the palm continued to crush down toward Sha Jingwang.

A tremendous aura erupted forth, causing the blood in the face of Sha Jingwang to drain out. As he lifted that Sea God Staff high, an immense amount of power gushed forth in retaliation.

One after another, Heaven Sharks burst forth menacingly. However, under the might of the palm strike, they were but ants that were destroyed one after another.

“OPEN UP THE PROTECTIVE BARRIER!”

Caught at a loss, Sha Jingwang yelled out in a panic. Instantly, the Colossal Shark God Ark lit up with a bright flash of light as a natural barrier covered it completely.

“ACCURSED B*STARD!” Sha Jingwang screamed.

But all of a sudden, he heard a crack.

Lifting his head, Sha Jingwang discovered that under the might of that palm, the barrier was actually cracking apart without any resistance at all!

“How could this be? This is the protection of the Sea God!” Sha Jingwang howled out in astonishment. But, the entire barrier shattered in the blink of an eye, and the Colossal Shark God Ark was instantly in the control of the palms of the other party.

‘Ding…Discovered Lower Graded Utmost Treasure, Colossal Shark God Ark.’

Looking at the imposing outlook of the gigantic ark, Lin Fan had thought that it would be some wild treasure. To think that at the end of the day, it would just be a Lower Graded Utmost Treasure! Boring! Way too boooooooooooooooooring!

Creak.

Using a slight bit of strength, Lin Fan caused the Colossal Shark God Ark to crack as its core powers began to burst forth.

When Sha Jingwang saw how the Colossal Shark God Ark was broken under the might of a single palm, he was scared entirely witless.

This was a Lower Graded Utmost Treasure! Even a Divine celestial level 10 state being wouldn’t be able to damage it!

But, to think that it would be destroyed by the other party with such ease! This was something that just shocked the bejabbers out of Sha Jingwang.

“DON’T KILL ME! PLEASE SPARE LIFE! PLEASE LET ME LIVE!!!!!!!!”

‘Ding…Congratulations on killing Divine celestial level 9 state powerful being, Sha Jingwang.’

‘Ding…Congratulations on obtaining Lower Graded Utmost Treasure, Sea God Staff.’

…

With just a single move, the entire world returned to its former peace.

Piak. Piak.

Lin Fan clapped his hands cleanly and looked at the Sea God Staff in his hands. He then tossed it straight into his Paradise for the Big Ancient Demon.

It was good to eat stuff like this every now and then as tonic.

“It’s over just like that…?”

At this moment, everyone stood there dumbfounded. That formidable Sha Jingwang was dead just like that? And, that imposing army from the Colossal Shark race was annihilated entirely like that?

The disciples of the Cloud Sect were not the only ones stunned right now. Grandmaster Yun was entirely frozen as well. He felt that everything made no sense at all! Everything was just bloody too surreal!

When Lin Fan looked at the petrified masses, he chuckled out, “What’s wrong? Are there any issues?”

Grandmaster Yun gulped down his saliva and asked in a tone of disbelief, “Lad, you…Just how strong are you right now?”

Grandmaster Yun could recall that back when this lad had left the sect those years ago, he wasn’t this strong just yet, right? But now that he had appeared once more, this lad was practically too blinding to look at!

Strong! Just way too strong!

He should be a Divine celestial level 10 state powerful being by now, right?

But, that single palm strike from earlier on was something that even a Divine celestial level 10 state being might not be able to defend against!

“Oh, just pretty average.” Lin Fan replied casually.

When Grandmaster Yun heard these words, he nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Chapter 855: Colossal Shark Race

The two elders who had been sealing up the entrance of the Cloud Sect were totally dumbfounded by now. They hadn’t expected that things would turn out as such!

To think that Sha Jingwang would be slammed to death with a single palm just like that!

Bloody mother*cker! How did things come to this?

In their opinion, the Cloud Sect was definitely doomed to fall this time around. But, who would have thought that this guy would appear?

And they knew about this fella as well! He was the human who was once invited to the Cloud Sect as a guest!

But, to think that he would turn this strong upon his reappearance!

Thud.

“Grandmaster! Spare our lives! We must have been blinded at that moment! Please spare our lives!” The two elders begged fervently, hoping that the Grandmaster could spare their lives.

Had they known that things would come to this, they would have never dared to side with the Ancient race even if it cost them their lives! But right now, it was all too late for those words.

“Grandmaster Yun, this is an affair of the Cloud Sect. I’ll leave it to you.” Lin Fan hated people who sided with the Ancient race the most.

At this moment, Grandmaster Yun was extremely infuriated as well. Slapping out with two palm strikes, he crippled the elders instantly.

“Hmph! Betraying the sect is something that even death will not compensate enough. But, on account of your contributions as elders of the sect, I shall strip you guys of your cultivation states and have you locked up in jail for all eternity.” Grandmaster Yun said.

“NOOOOOO…!”

The two elders suddenly realized that they were crippled right now as they howled out tragically. What was the difference between killing them and turning them into crippled handicaps?

“Grandmaster Yun, what do you intend to do from here on?” Lin Fan allowed his consciousness to slip into the pocket dimension. He discovered that the aura of the Founder Ancestor of the Cloud Sect was no longer present. Seemed like he must have dissipated entirely.

“Hais! Now that the barrier of the sect has been broken, it can be considered as useless. Seems like we can only seek out a new place.” Grandmaster Yun replied.

Lin Fan pondered for a moment before speaking up, “How about coming to the Xuanhuang World? I’ve already integrated with that place. There should be no need to worry about the Ancient race.”

“Alright.” Grandmaster Yun did not think twice.

Lin Fan spread out his fingers and brought all the structures of the Cloud Sect within the Xuanhuang World. Now that the Xuanhuang World had been cultivated by Lin Fan, safety was definitely not an issue for the masses to cultivate there.

At the same time, Grandmaster Yun was a righteous and just man. After he entered the Xuanhuang World, he would be able to converse well with the Grandmaster of Glory Sect.

After arranging everything, Lin Fan noticed a pair of eyes that had been following him intently. When Lin Fan turned around, he realized that it was Fairy Hongyun.

“Still doing okay?” Fairy Hongyun walked up and inquired softly.

“Yes, not bad.” Lin Fan nodded his head. “Later on, just head over to the Xuanhuang World first. Once we chase away the Ancient race, there will be much more free time by then.”

Lin Fan’s words could be taken either way. He did not know if Fairy Hongyun would be able to catch his drift.

“Understood.” Fairy Hongyun nodded her head and did not say anything more. This was quite the cold conversation to have for this reunion after a long time.

“Lin Fan, what are you preparing to do now?” Grandmaster Yun asked.

“Since this Colossal Shark race chose to side with the Ancient race, I’ll go over to their base and check it out properly.” Lin Fan was in urgent need of Shengyang Pills right now. Since this Colossal Shark race chose to jump out by itself, there was no way Lin Fan could let this off just like this, right?

As one of the Top Ten Old Ancient Beast races, there should definitely be no lack of treasures they had.

“But, you’ve got to be careful. The Shark God of the Colossal Shark race is extremely formidable, and there are many old-timers in their midst. If the situation doesn’t seem right, it’d be best to run off.” Grandmaster Yun warned.

“Yes, rest assured.”

Lin Fan then swept his robes and had everyone from top to toe of the Cloud Sect kept into the Xuanhuang World. Lin Fan was only accumulating strength right now. The only way for him to have more confidence in fighting against the Ancient race was through increasing his strength and forces.

PSHEW!

Darting into the void, Lin Fan headed for the base of the Colossal Shark race.

…

A palace stood tall within a vast ocean. There was a ruler seated on his royal throne and playing around with a precious pearl in his hand.

All of a sudden, the pearl shattered into dust that scattered down on the ground.

All the surrounding beings of the Colossal Shark race lowered their heads. Under this repressing aura that was emanating forth, none of them dared to utter a single word.

“B*stard thing.” The God of the Colossal Shark race that sat on the throne finally spoke up. His eyes were glowing with a glint of frosty fury.

“God, the tributes are here.”

At this moment, a member of the Colossal Shark race walked in from outside.

Following him, a cage was carried in by several other members of the Colossal Shark race. There were four kids that were locked up in the cages. These kids had smooth and tender skin, looking full of spirit.

When they caught sight of everything before them, the four little began to bawl out loudly.

The Shark God inhaled deeply, sucking in the four children into his mouth, then started chewing down. All of these pieces of meat contained the purest Spirit Qi.

It was only at this moment that the Shark God’s anger was slightly appeased.

“Not bad.”

The Shark God stretched a finger into his mouth and pulled out a bone from one of the corpses of the children, using it to pick at his teeth before biting this bone into dust again.

“These bunch of trashes could even fail something such as destroying the Cloud Sect. They are seriously a disgrace to our Colossal Shark race.” The Shark God said.

Everyone below trembled in fright and did not dare to reply. This was because they knew that the Shark God was still infuriated. No one dared to bump heads with him at this moment.

…

After a long time, Lin Fan arrived at the water region where the Colossal Shark race should reside based on the old records.

“Indeed, they are one of the Top Ten Old Ancient Beast races. To think that they would occupy an ocean that is tens of millions of miles wide in radius. With such a huge territory, there must be abundant resources and wealth!” Lin Fan checked out this patch of limitless ocean region. All of a sudden, he caught sight of a black shadow up ahead. He then flew towards the black shadow.

Above the water surface…

A wooden barrel was floating on the surface of the water. Within the barrel, a young boy checked out his surroundings warily while waving a wooden bat in his hands.

The wooden barrel was extremely tiny, such that even a single wave could flip it over. It was undoubtedly a fool’s dream to expect that this thing could cross this entire ocean. And not only that, under the circumstances of having no food, how long could this guy sustain himself?

“I’ll never give up! I have to get outside and learn some capabilities so that I can rescue my race members!” The eyes of the young boy were shining with a glint of resolution.

Broop, broop, broop!

All of a sudden, there was a huge disturbance on the surface of the ocean.

The young boy yelped out in astonishment. Right before his very eyes, there was a gigantic Sea Beast that was opening its huge mouth. The cruel eyes of the beast were glaring straight at that young boy who was in the wooden barrel. It then lunged over greedily, wanting to eat him up in a single mouthful.

“AHHHHH! SAVE MEEEEE!”

The young boy screamed out in fear before shutting his eyes tightly, not daring to watch everything before him. After a long time, when the young boy realized that he was still fine and alive, he finally opened his eyes slowly.

All he saw was that gigantic Sea Beast floating on the surface of the ocean after being cut into two. The blood stained the entire ocean, attracting many predators.

“Kid, what are you doing?”

The moment the young boy heard this voice, his heart skipped a beat, feeling a little afraid. But when he caught sight of that figure, he heaved out a sigh of relief.

Nevertheless, he still whispered out in a hushed tone, “What sort of a person are you?”

Lin Fan looked at the kid and chuckled out asking, “What do you think?”

“A good person?” The boy asked.

“Yes, I’m a good person then! Now, why are you here all alone?” Lin Fan asked.

“I-I…!”

After hearing everything the kid said, Lin Fan could not help but feel impressed with the courage of the boy. To think that he would dare to set sail with this setup! If not for the fact that he had bumped into Lin Fan, he would have long turned into the food of the Sea Beast!

But by the looks of things, Lin Fan garnered that he must have arrived at the correct location as well.

Chapter 856: The Race With No One Cultivating At All

And by now, Lin Fan knew the name of this young boy as well.

Little Stone.

This was some really casual name that he was given!

“And with just that strength of yours, you want to cross this vast ocean that spans out tens of millions of miles? I’m afraid that’s not going to be too possible in your entire lifetime.” Lin Fan’s words did not have anything untrue at all. For a little kid like this, the ocean was truly boundless, and stretched as far as his eyes could see. If he wanted to cross it just by floating across slowly like this, he might not be able to achieve it even if he was given a hundred years.

Even for any living being below the Divine celestial cultivation state, if they wanted to fly across this entire ocean, they would have to spend at least an entire year.

“I’m not afraid! My race members are living in the shadows of these demons! I will head out there to find a powerful being to acknowledge as my master! I will then learn some capabilities to come back and save my entire race!” Even though Little Stone wasn’t huge in size, his eyes shone with an iron will.

“You’ve got ambition, little fella! But, if you hadn’t bumped into me, you would have long been eaten up by that Sea Beast.” Lin Fan chuckled out.

Being well read, Lin Fan had an understanding towards all the beings of the thousands of races. There was plenty of Spirit Qi within the body of this boy that was pure without any impurities. While he might not have any cultivation state, Lin Fan could tell that his entire body was filled with Spirit Qi, even down to his flesh.

With this type of body, there was no doubt that he was from the Spirit race.

And, this race was a little mysterious now. It was hard to find them in other places.

“Are you strong?” Little Stone peered at Lin Fan with a thirsty look in his eyes, as though he was anticipating something.

“Not too bad. Why? Is there any issue?” Lin Fan chuckled out.

Thud.

Instantly, Little Stone collapsed to his knees and prostrated that small little body of his on the ground, “Please take me in as your disciple, senior! Teach me some mystic skills of the martial arts! I want to learn them to save my race!”

“Haha.” Lin Fan could not help but chuckle out when he looked at this small Little Stone that was prostrating before his face. This was quite an interesting kid.

“Oh? Sure, I can teach you some unparalleled mystic skills. But, what can you give me in return, kid?” Lin Fan laughed out. “There’s no free lunch in this world out of no reason, you know?”

When Little Stone heard these words, his face got a little anxious, not knowing what he should do. All of a sudden, Little Stone took out a dagger and placed it right in front of him.

“Please take me in as your disciple, senior! Little Stone is someone from the Spirit race! I know that all of those devils love eating the meat of my comrades! As long as you teach me some mystic skills, Little Stone is willing to cut off his meat for senior to eat!”

Even though Little Stone was young, his face was extremely solemn as though he was talking about something extremely important right now.

Lin Fan’s face tensed up. To think that this Little Stone would say something as such!

But, Lin Fan knew that it was inscribed in the records that the Spirit race beings were born with an incredible amount of Spirit Qi within their bodies. This could be considered as the most delicious thing in this entire world.

The Colossal Shark race must have rounded up the Spirit race beings and reared them so that they could enjoy this endless delicacy at their own likings!

At this moment, Chicky stood on Lin Fan’s shoulders, his chicken eyes shining with a bright glint.

“Old Bro, this kid is pretty decent. He has the style of Your Chicky here.” Chicky commented.

“You’ve taken a liking to him? How about you take him as your disciple?” Lin Fan grinned.

“Sure. Even though this kid isn’t anything much, Your Chicky here is a benevolent chicken. Regarding this matter…”

Chicky had wanted to brag a little more. But just at this moment, Little Stone suddenly shook his head furiously.

“Nononononno! I only want to take senior here as my master. I don’t want to take a chicken as a master.”

The moment Chicky heard these words, he exploded immediately. Spreading out his wings, all his chicken feathers stood upright, “Kid! You really don’t know what’s good for you! Your Chicky Daddy here has extended such a goodwill gesture and yet…? This is going to anger Your Chicky!”

“HAHAHA!” Lin Fan burst out laughing before patting Chicky on the head.

“Kid, we’ll talk about this matter in the future. First, let’s go check out the area of your Spirit race first, shall we?” Lin Fan tossed his robes. Bringing Little Stone with him, he flew into the distance.

It didn’t take long for Lin Fan to reach the place, as he barely had to blink.

But for Little Stone, this was a little unbelievable. He had drifted out for close to ten days now! Yet, in the blink of an eye, he was already back home! At this moment, Little Stone was even more certain that this person before him was an absolute powerful being.

“Little Stone, is this your home?” Lin Fan looked up into the distance where a city floated above the ocean’s surface and asked curiously.

This city was filled with Spirit Qi, all of it being emanated out from the beings of the Spirit race. Over an endless amount of time, it had become so thick that it had formed Spirit Qi Cyclones.

These Spirit Qi Cyclones swiveled above the sky of the city and formed different types of spirit creatures that lingered on and on.

“Senior, this is the hometown of Little Stone.” Now that he was back home, Little Stone could not help but let out a look of reminiscence. But, his face was mostly filled with fear as though there was something horrifying that existed here.

“Eh? That’s strange. This is the first time I’ve seen a city which is filled with only normal people.” Lin Fan sent his consciousness through, and every single movement and action that took place within this city was instantly taken into his mind.

The innate gift of these beings from the Spirit race was that they had bodies that were extremely pure and without any impurities within them. If they were to cultivate, it would definitely be a smooth sailing for them. However, the curious thing was that within these beings of the Spirit race, there wasn’t even a single cultivator! All of them were normal people who were extremely weak!

In the Ancient Saint World, this was something that he thought to be entirely impossible!

“Little Stone, is there anyone who cultivates in your hometown?” Lin Fan asked.

“No, senior. None of Little Stone’s family members are allowed to cultivate. If they did, they would be killed by those devils instantly. That’s the reason why Little Stone wants to leave this place and look for a powerful being outside to acknowledge as my master, so that I can learn something.”

Little Stone replied.

Lin Fan did not say anything. He was just silently sensing all the movements within the city. Before long, he knew exactly what was going on.

Within this city, there were ten million Spirit race beings. However, not only did none of them have a cultivation state, they didn’t even have any True Energy!

Seemed like the Colossal Shark race had really just encircled this entire place and kept these Spirit race beings as captives while letting them live on their own within. Those who worked could only earn some meager livelihood to feed their families.

This had Lin Fan recalling the society back in his old world. Those who would dare to cultivate on their own were akin to the ones carrying firearms back in his old world. If they were to be discovered, it would be a severe crime.

On the streets, the Colossal Shark race beings formed patrol groups that roamed the place. Whenever the surrounding beings of the Spirit race saw these Colossal Shark beings, they would lose all of their guts.

“How dare you bloody sh*t of the Spirit race dare to cultivate?”

At this moment, a patrolling Colossal Shark race being arrested a Spirit race being and bared his rows of sharp teeth.

“No, I didn’t cultivate!” The Spirit race being who was arrested yelped out in horror.

“Hmph! Cultivating on your own leaves you only with death! Time to devour you!” The being of the Colossal Shark race instantly opened his mouth at the Spirit race being.

For the Colossal Shark race beings, the flesh of the Spirit race beings was an absolute tonic. That meat which was full of Spirit Qi would turn into pure Spirit Qi the moment they ate it up, nourishing their bodies.

When the surrounding Spirit race beings caught sight of this, they cowered in fear at a corner badly, not daring to say anything more.

To all of them, these beings from the Colossal Shark race were simply way too intimidating.

“Spare me please!” When the being of the Spirit race saw how he was about to turn into fish food for the Colossal Shark race being, he begged out for mercy with a tragic look on his face.

Looking at everything, Lin Fan could only shake his head. These Colossal Shark race beings were truly lapdogs of the Ancient race. To think that they would even pick up on the same habits of eating up others.

He then pointed out with a single finger.

BAM!

Instantly, that Colossal Shark race being exploded out and was minced into sludge, deader than he could have ever been dead.

Chapter 857: Time To Eat Shark Fin!

“Who’s there?”

“Just who is it?”

At this moment, all of the patrol members of the Colossal Shark race started getting nervous. To think that a living being would dare to kill the Colossal Shark race members! Were they tired of living?

As for those horrified living beings of the Spirit race, their faces were completely frozen solid at the scene before them.

This was the Colossal Shark race, one of the Top Ten Old Ancient Beast races! This was an existence that stood shoulder to shoulder with the Ancient race and ruled over the tens of millions of miles of ocean region! They were a force not to be reckoned with in the Ancient Saint World!

“Spare us! Please spare us!”

The beings of the Spirit race suddenly prostrated down onto the ground. In their opinions, the Colossal Shark race beings would definitely shift the rage over to them and kill them later on!

“The Colossal Shark race is indeed extremely tyrannical. To think that you’re able to hold an entire race captive.”

At this moment, an authoritative voice descended down from the void as two figures could be seen standing out.

Little Stone was beyond excited right now as he waved down to everyone below, “Everyone, I’m back!”

“I’m back!”

Little Stone was young and ignorant, without much knowledge towards powerful beings out there. But, when he saw how Lin Fan had annihilated a Colossal Shark race being with just a single finger, he was naturally overwhelmed with joy.

Chicky stood on Lin Fan’s shoulders and looked down at the Spirit race beings below. He could not help but shake his head, feeling that these guys were leading way too miserable a life, being reared like pigs.

The Spirit race beings who were prostrating on the ground looked up at that voice from that short little figure and looked at one another.

“Little Stone.”

“Isn’t that the son of Zhao Xinming?”

“Hadn’t he set out for the seas? I had thought that he would have died in the jaws of some Sea Beast or something. To think that he would have returned!”

“Who’s that man beside Little Stone? Was he the one who killed that Colossal Shark race being just now?”

…

“Who are you to dare killing the Colossal Shark race beings?” The patrolling squad from the Colossal Shark race roared out. Something as such had never ever happened before! To think that a living being would dare to kill someone of their race right in their territory!

“HMPH!”

Lin Fan snorted out coldly using the Heavenly Dragon’s Music, and a soundwave boomed out ferociously, as that immense amount of power caused the void to rupture out immediately.

Creak.

The void cracked out inch by inch. For all of these Colossal Shark race beings of the patrol squad, this power was simply way too formidable to resist at all!

BAM!

Crushed. Completely, utterly crushed.

These beings of the Colossal Shark race patrol squad were turned into a sludge of blood and dust.

Tragic. This was truly really tragic.

“Everyone, I’ve brought senior here back with me! Senior will be able to help us get rid of these devils!” Little Stone commented excitedly.

“Little Stone, why are you back? And who is this person?”

“Little Stone, your younger sister was just taken away by the Colossal Shark race to give to the Shark God as tribute!”

…

The moment Little Stone heard this, his entire face changed, “Senior, please save my younger sister! My younger sister has been brought away by those devils!”

Hearing these words from the masses, Little Stone started tugging at Lin Fan’s robes worriedly.

“Who is it?”

At this moment, a violent roar boomed out from the distance. This voice was coarse, mighty, and filled with an endless ferocity.

Far from the distant skies, a surging wave gushed over. Above that wave was a Colossal Shark wearing a golden armor and bringing forth an unparalleled might, along with an extraordinary disposition.

“AH! The Shark King is here!”

The moment the Spirit race beings heard this voice, they felt their hearts skip a beat as they were filled with fear once more.

For these Spirit race beings, the Shark King was akin to a god who held control over their lives. As for this powerful being that was brought back by Little Stone, they did not have any confidence in him at all. In their eyes, the Shark King was an invincible existence.

Back in the past, there were some other Spirit race beings who had grouped up to come and rescue them. However, in the hands of the Shark King, they were like ants that were killed in a split second. They could not fight back at all.

Lin Fan’s brows furrowed as he looked over into the distance. His lips then curled into a grin as he patted Little Stone’s head, “Don’t worry. Everything is under control.”

“Who are you?” A long streak of golden light burst forth and stopped before Lin Fan’s face instantly. The body of the Shark King was extremely huge, and that menacing shark head of his was especially nefarious looking. Those cruel eyes of his were glaring at Lin Fan with extreme violence.

“Get your Shark God out.”

Towards an ant of this level, Lin Fan didn’t have much of an interest.

“Hmph! The Shark God is extremely revered. He isn’t someone that a lowly living being such as yourself will be able to meet. You have just killed my underlings earlier on. Today, I shall have you pay with your life!” The Shark King bellowed.

SHING!

In a flash, the Shark King transformed into a streak of light and attacked at Lin Fan.

All of the surrounding beings of the Spirit race supposed that this powerful being brought by Little Stone was just going to fall right here.

Perhaps even Little Stone himself might die here.

Creak.

But all of a sudden, something that shocked everyone happened. That Shark King that was invincible in their eyes was gripped by the throat by that living being!

“Just have that Shark God of yours come out to face me. In the eyes of Yours Truly, all of you aren’t even worth a single ant.” Lin Fan raised his hands with extreme ease and choked the Shark King in his grip. That look of disdain in his eyes caused the Shark King to be riled up entirely.

The Shark King hadn’t expected that things would turn out as such! He barked out, “JUST WHO IN THE WORLD ARE YOU?”

“Motherf*cking Human King.”

Lin Fan replied casually as he increased his grip strength.

On the other hand, Chicky was sitting on Lin Fan’s shoulders carefreely right now. With a look of scorn, he looked at the Shark King and said, “Hmph! Just someone like you and you think you can get your grubby hands on my Old Bro? Why don’t you take a piss and look at yourself in the reflection to see just how f*cking ugly you are.”

“Eh! Old Bro, I’ve suddenly recalled something!” Chicky’s eyes shone with a bright glint as he remarked excitedly.

“What?”

“I heard from my mother that the royalty of the Colossal Shark race are all Heaven Sharks. Their fins are extremely great tonics that can help to raise one’s cultivation state!” Chicky said.

“Oh? Shark fins?” Lin Fan grinned.

“YOU B*STARD!” The Shark King howled out. To think that this living being before him right now would be thinking about eating him!

Slice.

All of a sudden, the Shark King roared out as his body began to expand rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he became thousand feet tall, as a Colossal Shark with a pair of fins appeared before Lin Fan’s very eyes.

Those pair of Heaven Fins were glistening and shiny.

“Old Bro! That’s it! He’s a Heaven Shark! The royalty amongst the Colossal Shark race!” Chicky flapped his wings excitedly while saying as he drooled over it.

“Since these Colossal Sharks love eating the Spirit race beings so much, this time around, we’ll have them treat the Spirit race beings to a meal then!”

Lin Fan raised his hand furiously and tossed the Heaven Shark into the air. Using two fingers as a sword, he drew a line in the air.

Two streaks of sword gleams glided through the air. With a sharp sound, that pair of gigantic Heaven Fins were sliced off.

“ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”

The Shark King howled out in pain. However, in a single breath, Lin Fan slammed down violently and crushed the Shark King.

‘Ding…Congratulations on killing Royalty of the Colossal Shark race, Shark King.’

‘Experience Points +…’

…

Given Lin Fan’s strength now, even if this were a Heaven Shark, he wouldn’t give him many experience points anymore. Therefore, it was practically negligible.

At this moment, all of the Spirit race members were stunned, as though they had just witnessed something horrifying. They hadn’t expected that the formidable Shark King would die just like that!

On the other hand, Little Stone was clapping excitedly. He was so enthusiastic in clapping that his hands were reddened by now.

Chapter 858: Why Leave?

“The Shark King is dead!”

From amidst the Spirit race beings, someone suddenly yelled with excitement as though this was something unbelievable. It didn’t take long before the rest of the Spirit race beings caught on to it.

“The Shark King is dead!”

“To think that the invincible Shark King would be killed!”

“He was killed by the powerful being brought back by Little Stone!”

“Everyone, hurry and come over! The Shark King is dead!”

The cheers erupted out into the sky. All Spirit race beings felt as though a feeling of indignance had finally been vented out of their hearts.

“Senior, you’re really way too strong!” Little Stone raised his head and looked at Lin Fan in exhilaration. Lin Fan chuckled out and did not put this affair to heart.

Thud.

All of a sudden, all the Spirit race beings collapsed to their knees prostrating, “Please save us, senior!”

“Please save us from everything, senior!”

The Spirit race had been oppressed by the Colossal Shark race for a long time. Now that hope had finally appeared, they naturally wanted to grab hold of it. And they had to kneel down and beg all the more for it since the hope had appeared right before their very faces.

Lin Fan raised his hand gently, “Rest assured, everyone. After today, the Colossal Shark race shall be a thing of the past.”

“Chicky, you stay here and gather some helpers to prepare for a Heaven Fin Feast.” Lin Fan said.

“Don’t worry, Old Bro. Your Chicky is the best guy for such things.” Chicky replied cheerily.

At this moment, Lin Fan flew up into the void, “You guys don’t have to be nervous. Yours Truly will head over to kill the Shark God now and return to host the Heaven Fin Feast.”

Instantly, Lin Fan dove into the void and disappeared into the direction of the Shark God up ahead.

As for Chicky, he was now the center of all attention.

Chicky could not help but raise his head with a face of pride, “All of you can just calm your nerves. It’ll only take a short time for my Old Bro to go kill that Shark God or whatnot. Any cooks around here? Come forth and prepare these Heaven Fins here.”

It wasn’t long before a large group of cooks from the Spirit race stepped forth. When they saw the pair of Heaven Fins, they were completely petrified.

“Holy sh*t! This is truly the first time I’m preparing such a large ingredient!”

“That’s right! How should we do this?”

Chicky hopped onto the Heaven Fins and waved his wings, “Alright, come listen to my instructions…”

…

At this moment above a patch of ocean…

Lin Fan’s white robes fluttered gently with his hands behind his back as he looked down at the situation below. On his way here, he caught sight of the Colossal Sharks who had taken Little Stone’s younger sister and cleaned them up conveniently.

He then had Little Stone’s younger sister head back on her own.

“Shark God, come on out.”

Lin Fan looked at the calm water surface and said out softly.

BOOM!

The moment Lin Fan said these words, the water surface surged with mounting waves.

“Who was the one who killed the Shark King?”

All of a sudden, the entire ocean region turned pitch black as an enormous cluster of Colossal Sharks floated up, filling the entire place.

“Who are you?”

At this very moment, a golden colored Colossal Shark stood solidly on the surface of the water. Those shark eyes of his shone with an ominous glint.

For the Shark God, there had truly never been anyone who had dared to come here and act so audaciously. Even in the past when there were those beings of the Spirit race who had dared come forth to try kill him, they were all killed by the twelve Kings under him easily.

But all of a sudden, the Shark God realized that one of his twelve Kings, the Shark King, had died.

For the Shark God, this was something absolutely intolerable.

“Motherf*cking Human King.”

Lin Fan placed his hands behind his back with a haughty aura.

“It’s you!” When the Shark God heard this title, his face took a stark change. It was evident that he knew Lin Fan.

“Were you the one who destroyed the Colossal Shark God Ark of Your God here as well?” The Shark God asked sternly.

“Huehue. Why ask when you know the truth?” Lin Fan chuckled out, then sized up the Shark God, “Not bad! Compared to the Shark King, you’re much larger in size. Those pair of Heaven Fins you have there? They can be considered as Yours Truly’s.”

“BRAZEN!”

At this moment, the remaining ten Kings who stood at the side of the Shark God barked out.

But in the next moment, Lin Fan stretched out his fingers and instantly grabbed the ten Shark Kings in his palms.

“How dare you!” When the Shark God caught sight of this, his entire face changed. But for Lin Fan, was there anything he wouldn’t dare do?

In a flash, the ten Shark Kings returned to their true forms. But the moment their true forms appeared, Lin Fan severed their Heaven Fins straight away before pinching them to death one after another, turning them into sludge.

That thick blood stained the water surface, scaring the Colossal Sharks so badly that they retreated furiously, as though they had just seen a ghost.

“Not bad! These ten pairs of Heaven Fins should be enough for the Spirit race to enjoy.” Lin Fan checked them out properly, then tossed the ten pairs of Heaven Fins up into the void and sent them flying toward the city.

This single scene had the Shark God feeling like his guts had just been smashed. This was a downright provocation! The Colossal Shark race were known to dominate over the water regions! But, to think that there would be this guy here who would dare come knocking on the door and taunting as such!

This was an utter humiliation…one that was absolutely unbearable!

The billions of Colossal Sharks roared out as that ferocious might of theirs was transmitted into the air.

“Shark God, the moment you decided to side with the Ancient race, your death had already been set in stone.” Lin Fan said calmly. At the same time, he had some lingering intents on the treasures of the Colossal Shark race.

This time around with his trip to the Colossal Shark race base, Yours Truly would have to pillage a good round out of them!

“Damn it! DAMN IT! KILL HIM!” The Shark God bellowed out as he waved out his hands, sending billions of Colossal Sharks pouncing on Lin Fan.

At that moment when Lin Fan looked down and caught sight of those pitch black figures down below, he grinned out.

“Motherf*cking Human King, so what if you’re immensely strong? The might of a billion Colossal Sharks isn’t something that you can afford to defend against!” The Shark God yelled.

“Fellow brother, let us assist you!”

Just as Lin Fan was prepared to make his move, the void suddenly rippled out as hundreds of figures burst forth from the void.

Lin Fan was startled as he looked over. This single glance had him realizing that all of these figures seemed to be from the Spirit race!

“Shark God, how dare you hold our fellow Spirit race beings captive and slay them indiscriminately? Today, I’m going to fight it out with you!” A man wielded two swords in his hands and stood beside Lin Fan as he shouted out in fury.

“HAHA! So, it was you guys. But it’s alright. All of you can die together from the fury of a billion Colossal Sharks today!”

“My Colossal Shark race is an invincible existence!”

The Shark God roared out. As he took a massive step forward, a tremendous amount of power burst forth from him. A series of ripples spread out on the water surface, causing the entire ocean to start billowing outwards.

“Fellow brother, who are you? On behalf of the Spirit race, I thank you.”

“However, the situation is pressing right now. This Colossal Shark race is extremely formidable. We have to retreat now first before we plan for our next course of action carefully.”

The man wielding dual swords looked over at Lin Fan saying.

When he caught sight of the black cluster of figures down below, his face could not help but turn grim as well.

“Senior brother, we had better hurry up and leave! This is the Savage Shark Formation of the Colossal Shark race! If we’re caught up in it, death is the only thing that awaits us!” A female from the Spirit race said.

“Alright, fellow brother, let us hurry and leave!”

They were beings of the Spirit race. When they found out that there was a big group of their fellow race members who were being held captive and reared by the Colossal Shark race, they were filled with an endless rage down from the bottom of their hearts.

Therefore, they gathered a huge group this time around to try and save them.

Initially, they had remained hidden in the void for days now to check out the situation carefully. But, to think that there would be a man who would come forth and head straight for the Shark God!

This was something that was way too incredible for these Spirit race beings.

But, seeing how the other party was stepping up for their Spirit race, how could they leave him in the lurch to die? Therefore, they did not mind revealing themselves.

…

Lin Fan blinked his eyes and shrugged his head helplessly.

“There’s no need to. Why are we leaving? It’s just a bunch of ants.”
