Sealed deep within the abyssal depths of the earth, an old man sat cross-legged in the center, surrounded by countless golden, twisted, and mysterious inscriptions emanating boundless Buddhist power. Above his head hovered a radiant dome, shaped like an eight-sided parasol, pressing down upon him and firmly sealing him in place.
Ah!
Roars of fury echoed as the old man struggled to break free from the seal, desperate to kill that young man outside. Yet, the moment he moved, an immense force of Buddhist energy descended, crushing him back down.
The old man nearly spat out a mouthful of blood in rage, but he held back, recalling how much of his essence had already been lost. Spitting more would truly finish him.
“Damn brat! You actually dared to steal tens of thousands of years of my power! You wretched beast!” the Devil Ancestor raged.
At that moment, Lin Fan stood leisurely before the mountain of seals, a bright smile curling his lips.
“Don’t get so worked up. Let’s talk calmly. I told you not to, but you insisted on forcing those pills on me. So whose fault is that?” Lin Fan chuckled.
The Devil Ancestor, Wu Yu, was furious. Once the ruler of heaven and earth, he had never endured such humiliation. The rage burning in his heart could have scorched the heavens themselves.
Yet now, bound by the seal, he could do nothing.
“Fine! Today, I’ll risk consuming even more of my essence to crush you completely!” the Devil Ancestor bellowed. In an instant, the mountain of seals trembled violently.
A surge of devilish energy shot into the sky, and from the void emerged a monstrous hand—lifeless, gray, and reeking of death. With a single swipe, it shattered the very space around it.
Lin Fan was shocked. He immediately began cursing under his breath. He hadn’t expected Wu Yu to go this far—to actually risk his very life essence just to kill him.
Even this small amount of power was like an immense mountain pressing down on Lin Fan, an overwhelming force that left no room for resistance.
“Insect! You will pay dearly for your actions!”
The Devil Ancestor unleashed his power with terrifying force, a wave of destruction surging toward Lin Fan.
Damn it!
He’s really serious this time. But for Lin Fan, what could he do?
Lin Fan immediately summoned the Celestial Furnace. As the monstrous hand descended from the sky, he calmly crawled into the furnace.
“Feel free to keep swatting, old man. I’ll be waiting,” Lin Fan shouted toward the mountain of seals, then shut the furnace lid tightly and hid inside.
Boom!
A violent explosion erupted, shaking heaven and earth.
Inside the Celestial Furnace, Lin Fan felt the impact like a tidal wave, tossing him around violently until he nearly spat out blood.
Holy crap, that was one hell of a punch.
This strike was no ordinary blow—it surpassed even the full power of a Golden Immortal, shaking the Celestial Furnace with a deafening roar. It was monstrous.
But what good was that?
No matter how powerful the strike, it was useless. This was the Celestial Furnace, not some cheap trinket.
What could a so-called mighty being do? Not even a single tap could break it open.
The Devil Ancestor had gone all out, willing to sacrifice his essence just to kill this annoying pest. Though sealed, the power he channeled out was enough to destroy everything—even a Golden Immortal couldn’t withstand it.
“Hey, Devil Ancestor, are you done swatting yet?” Lin Fan shouted, lifting the furnace lid.
The Devil Ancestor, still catching his breath, froze at the sound, his expression shifting to disbelief.
“How is this possible? You…” He was stunned. He hadn’t expected things to turn out this way.
“What do you mean ‘you’? That’s all you’ve got, and you still think you can kill me? Who do you think you’re scaring?” Lin Fan stepped out of the furnace.
But when he saw the surroundings, he was stunned too.
For miles around, the land had collapsed, a terrifying sight indeed.
This Devil Ancestor was no ordinary foe. If it weren’t for his own caution, he might have been crushed to death.
The Devil Ancestor was dumbfounded. He couldn’t believe he had encountered such a tough opponent.
“What kind of treasure is this? How can it have such power?” Wu Yu exclaimed in shock. He had never seen such a furnace, nor could he even begin to fathom what it was.
And yet it had withstood his strike—what kind of artifact was this?
Even the finest divine treasures couldn’t endure such a blow, yet this insect possessed such a treasure.
Maddening! Infuriating!
Especially with the brat still mocking him like this—it was unbearable.
“Hey, Devil Ancestor, are you coming again or not? If not, I’m leaving.”
“But seriously, I should thank you today. If you hadn’t been so generous, I wouldn’t have gained such a rare opportunity.”
“Life sometimes needs a few idiots. Without them, where’s the sense of achievement?”
“You’re sealed away for a reason, you know. Your intelligence isn’t exactly top-notch. Staying alive is already a blessing.”
Lin Fan rambled on, but every word drove Wu Yu into a deeper rage.
Roars, curses, and every kind of insult poured from the mountain of seals.
The Devil Ancestor could no longer bear it. As a mighty ancestor of darkness, he was being insulted by a mere junior. Where was his dignity?
Moreover, Lin Fan’s mockery only deepened Wu Yu’s hatred toward the Future Boundless Buddha who had sealed him here for tens of thousands of years without ever appearing again.
“Silence!”
The Devil Ancestor roared, though his voice had lost its previous ferocity. That last strike must have cost him dearly.
“Heh, this is getting boring. I’m out,” Lin Fan dusted himself off, stowed the Celestial Furnace into his bag, and prepared to leave.
The Devil Ancestor, still sealed, raged furiously. But after Lin Fan vanished, he remained consumed by anger. He had already marked this brat.
Once he broke free from the seal, his first act would be to slaughter this insect, teaching him the price of insulting the Devil Ancestor.
He vented his frustration and finally calmed down. This encounter had been a heavy blow, and it would take a long time to recover.
Just as the Devil Ancestor was about to enter a state of recovery, the annoying brat returned, grinning like nothing had happened.
“Beast! What are you back for?” Wu Yu roared.
Lin Fan smiled. “I just remembered something. I wanted to try something—if it works, maybe I can kill you for good.”
“Bullshit!” Wu Yu snapped, furious that the brat still dared to think of killing him. He laughed mockingly, “Dream on! This seal was cast by the Future Boundless Buddha himself. Even if you cultivate for a million years, you won’t break it.”
“Break your sister’s seal! I’m going to melt both you and the seal into the pot!” Lin Fan declared.
“Celestial Furnace, come forth!”
Boom!
At that moment, the Celestial Furnace floated into the air.
Grow!
Grow!
The previously modest-sized furnace expanded rapidly, soon surpassing the mountain of seals in size.
Following Lin Fan’s command, the furnace flipped upside down, its opening facing downward, enveloping the entire mountain of seals.
Lin Fan examined it carefully, then nodded in satisfaction.
“Perfect. The opening is just the right size. I can take it all in one go.”
Feeling the situation unfold, the Devil Ancestor roared in panic, “Beast! What are you doing?”
“You’ll see soon enough,” Lin Fan replied.
