The Saint Sect members’ faces changed. In their eyes, no matter how strong Lin Fan was, he absolutely couldn’t have survived the punch from an ancient demonic beast.
“Master…” Mi Qiong stared blankly at the deep crater punched into the ground by the ancient demon, wanting to struggle up and fight it to the death, but his entire body felt as if his bones had shattered.
Yanzi, the sect leader, and Wuya, the senior elder, along with others, also wore expressions of grief. Lin Fan was the hope of the Saint Sect—how could he die like this?
Now, they were all at their wits’ end, left only to await their deaths.
Although the blessing of Heaven’s Dao was powerful, before the ancient demonic beast, it was still too weak.
Lu Yan lay there silently, his grand vow just made moments ago ruined by Lin Fan, and his last hope of resistance had vanished like smoke.
The ancient demonic beast, with a fierce gaze and a demonic body towering like a mountain, was capable of destroying everything. Its domineering figure filled people’s hearts with despair.
“Too much… this is simply too much…”
Just as everyone was filled with despair, a thunderous voice suddenly echoed across the heavens.
The voice brimmed with boundless fury and resentment.
“Is it right to attack someone as soon as they appear? Don’t you have any conscience?”
“Do you even know how much I’ve suffered?”
“My spirit was nearly shattered from torment. I thought I might finally feel warmth from the world, yet you, a mere little demon, threw a punch without a word. How despicable!”
…
When this voice reached everyone’s ears, the other sects wore puzzled expressions, unable to tell who was speaking.
But for the Saint Sect, this voice was all too familiar.
It was… Lin Fan.
He wasn’t dead…
“Boom…”
Lin Fan, once again punched into the ground, burst forth from the earth. Under the light’s glow, his body stood tall and mighty, exuding majesty.
To the Saint Sect disciples, he was like a savior.
“This can’t be… Who exactly is he?”
The other sects were completely stunned. Surviving a punch from the ancient demonic beast unscathed was simply unbelievable.
But for the Saint Sect, it was cause for celebration.
“Lin Fan!”
“Senior!”
“Master!”
The Saint Sect disciples roared, releasing their excitement.
Even Senior Elder Wuya viewed Lin Fan as a miracle. Perhaps with him around, they would survive.
In an instant, the other sects, upon hearing the Saint Sect’s cries, were left speechless.
The one who had survived the punch of the ancient demonic beast was actually from the Saint Sect.
“Master Yan, who is he?” the leaders of the other sects asked in confusion.
Yanzi looked at his disciples and finally spoke slowly.
“He is the strongest among our sect.”
“And our final hope…”
Hearing this, the other sects were momentarily stunned.
The strongest?
Their final hope?
Did he really possess such power?
But why did he seem so unlikely? He was far too young, and the ancient demonic beast was overwhelmingly strong, having completely stripped them of any hope.
Lin Fan stood before the ancient demonic beast. To the demon, Lin Fan’s figure was as insignificant as an ant.
“You insect… you’re still alive?” The ancient demonic beast, seeing this figure again, felt a rare sense of shock. Never before had it seen an insect with such tenacity.
“Hmph, do you think you’re strong enough to kill me? You’re not even close,” Lin Fan flipped the bird, mocking the ancient demonic beast. Then he turned his head toward the injured disciples lying on the ground.
“Why are you all here?”
“Senior, we were guided by Heaven’s Dao to come here and seal it. Otherwise, the Dongling Continent would be devastated,” Zong Hentian replied.
Zong Hentian had not inherited any ancient power, achieving his current status purely through his own efforts.
Lin Fan’s expression turned serious. He shook his head, “You’re not its match. You shouldn’t have come here to die. But now that I’m here, you’re safe.”
Upon hearing this, the Saint Sect disciples’ previously excited hearts suddenly calmed.
His words sounded oddly offensive, but then they smiled. This kid was still the same as ever.
To the other sects, however, Lin Fan’s arrogance left a poor impression.
Blustering and overconfident.
The ancient demonic beast was so powerful—did he really think he alone could subdue it?
Even with Heaven’s Dao enhancement, they couldn’t match it. Could he really?
The members of the Sacred Sect paled in shock. In their eyes, no matter how strong Lin Fan was, it was absolutely impossible for him to survive a punch from the ancient demon.
“Sect Master…” Mie Qiongqi stared dumbfounded at the deep crater left by the ancient demon’s punch. He wanted to struggle to his feet and fight the demon to the death, but his entire body felt as if his bones had been shattered.
Sect Master Yan and the Supreme Elder Wuya, along with others, wore expressions of sorrow. Lin Fan was the hope of the Sacred Sect—how could he die like this?
Now, they too were at the end of their strength, left with no choice but to await death.
Though the blessings of the Heavenly Dao were powerful, they were still too weak in the face of the ancient demon.
Lu Yan lay there, speechless. He had just made a grand vow, only for it to be shattered by Lin Fan. His only hope of a desperate struggle had vanished into thin air.
The ancient demon, with its ferocious eyes and towering demonic form, stood tall enough to destroy everything. Its domineering presence filled everyone with despair.
“This is too much, far too much…”
Just as despair gripped everyone, a thunderous voice suddenly echoed through the heavens and earth.
The voice was filled with boundless rage and resentment.
“To be attacked the moment I appear—do you have no conscience at all?”
“Do you know how much suffering I’ve endured?”
“My spirit is on the verge of exploding. I thought I could finally feel the warmth of the world, but you, this petty demon, didn’t even hesitate to throw a punch. How utterly despicable.”
…
As the voice reached their ears, members of other sects looked around in confusion, unsure of who was speaking.
But for the Sacred Sect, the voice was all too familiar.
It was… Lin Fan.
He wasn’t dead…
“Boom…”
Lin Fan, who had been punched into the ground once more, burst out of the earth in an instant. His figure, illuminated by a radiant light, appeared tall and majestic.
In the eyes of the Sacred Sect, he was like a savior.
“How is this possible… Who is he?”
The members of other sects were completely dumbfounded. To have survived a punch from the ancient demon unscathed was utterly unbelievable.
But for the Sacred Sect, it was a moment of pure exhilaration.
“Lin Fan.”
“Martial Uncle.”
“Sect Master…”
The Sacred Sect members roared, venting their excitement.
Even Supreme Elder Wuya saw Lin Fan as a miraculous young man, a beacon of hope that perhaps, with him here, they would all be safe.
In that instant, the other sects, hearing the words of the Sacred Sect, were left stunned.
The person who had survived a punch from the ancient demon was actually a member of the Sacred Sect.
“Sect Master Yan, who is he?” the leaders of other sects asked.
Sect Master Yan looked at his people and finally spoke slowly.
“He is the strongest of our sect.”
“And our last hope…”
The members of other sects were momentarily stunned.
The strongest?
The last hope?
Did he truly have such power?
But why did he seem so unassuming? After all, he was so young, and the ancient demon was overwhelmingly powerful, leaving them with no hope at all.
Lin Fan stood before the ancient demon, his figure appearing as insignificant as an ant in the demon’s eyes.
“You ant, you’re still not dead?” The ancient demon was surprised by this resilient figure. He had never seen an ant with such tenacious vitality.
“Hmph, you don’t have what it takes to kill me,” Lin Fan sneered, flipping the ancient demon the middle finger. He then turned to look at the people lying on the ground.
“Why are you all here?”
“Martial Uncle, we were guided by the Heavenly Dao to come here and suppress him. Otherwise, the Eastern Spirit Continent would be plunged into chaos,” Zong Hentian explained.
Zong Hentian hadn’t inherited the legacy of the ancient powers. Everything he had achieved was through his own hard work.
Lin Fan’s expression turned serious, and he shook his head. “You’re no match for this guy. You shouldn’t have come here to die. But it’s fine now. With me here, you’re safe.”
Hearing this, the Sacred Sect members’ excitement suddenly subsided.
Why did those words sound so grating? Then they chuckled—this kid was still the same.
For the members of other sects, their impression of Lin Fan took a nosedive.
He was too arrogant, too reckless.
The ancient demon was so powerful—did he really think he could suppress it alone?
Even with the blessings of the Heavenly Dao, they were no match. How could he possibly succeed?
“Bastard…” Lu Yan lay weakly on the ground, listening to this detestable guy showing off again. He was filled with resentment.
He had already made a grand vow to perish together with the ancient demon, but this guy had stopped him.
As for the state of mind Lu Yan had previously attained—detached and free from desire—it had long since vanished.
“Ant, this time, you must die…” The ancient demon roared, its fist descending from the sky, aiming to crush this insignificant creature.
“Be careful…” Everyone watched in terror, warning Lin Fan.
Lin Fan glanced at the ancient demon, clenched his fist, and said, “Bastard, you still want to kill me? Do you know how long I’ve tortured myself to destroy you? You could never understand that kind of suffering.”
“If you want to fight, I’ll see it through to the end.” Lin Fan tightened his fist and swung, colliding once more with the ancient demon’s punch.
“Lin Fan, don’t fight it head-on!” Supreme Elder Wuya shouted. The ancient demon’s power was far too great.
But at that moment, something shocking happened.
“Boom…”
The collision of the two fists unleashed an overwhelming force.
“Huh?” The ancient demon was momentarily stunned, as if it couldn’t believe what had just happened.
This insignificant human had actually managed to clash with it.
…
“How is this possible?”
“Sect Master Yan, what kind of monster is this guy?”
“Damn, Martial Uncle is amazing.”
“Martial Uncle, you’re a beast.”
Zong Hentian and the others were completely dumbfounded. They hadn’t expected their Martial Uncle to withstand a punch from the ancient demon with just his physical strength. It was terrifying.
“Sect Master Yan, why didn’t you bring this guy out earlier? Did you wait until we were all beaten to a pulp just to show off how powerful your Sacred Sect is?”
Sect Master Yan, hearing the complaints from the other sect leaders, was equally confused.
That wasn’t it… That really wasn’t it.
Lin Fan now wore a cold smile. Though his physical strength had broken through its limits, the ancient demon’s power was still beyond his ability to contend with.
But humans weren’t just about cultivation—they also had brains.
Five Heaven-tier superior-grade armors absorbed part of the force, leaving the remaining power manageable for his body to withstand.
“Ding, congratulations. The experience of ‘Eternal Immortality’ has increased by 400 million.”
…
Lin Fan stood unharmed, not sent flying like before.
“Ancient demon, your punches are nothing to me now,” Lin Fan said with a domineering gaze, a cold smile on his lips.
All of this was the result of endless suffering I endured just to destroy you.
“Ancient demon, I’ll be taking your corpse today.” Lin Fan now had his eyes on the ancient demon’s body.
“The Demon City in the Palm” needed new power to replenish it.
He had already vowed to die together with the ancient demonic beast, but unexpectedly, this guy had stopped him.
As for the mindset of detachment and enlightenment Lu Yan had achieved earlier, it had long since vanished.
“Insect, this time, you must die…” The ancient demonic beast roared furiously, throwing a punch from the sky, determined to kill this insignificant being.
“Watch out!” Seeing the punch from the ancient demonic beast, the others cried out in fear.
Lin Fan glanced at the ancient demonic beast and clenched his fists. “Damn it, you want to punch me again? Do you even know how long I’ve been torturing myself to kill you? How could you possibly understand such torment?”
“If you want to fight, I’ll fight you to the end!” Lin Fan tightened his fists and threw a punch, colliding once again with the ancient demonic beast’s fist.
“Xiao Fan, don’t confront it directly!” Senior Elder Wuya shouted desperately. The ancient demonic beast’s power was simply too overwhelming.
Yet at that moment, a shocking scene unfolded before their eyes.
“Boom!”
The two punches collided, unleashing boundless power.
“Huh?” The ancient demonic beast was momentarily astonished, as if unable to believe what it had just seen.
This human, no more than an insect, had actually withstood its punch.
…
“How is this possible?”
“Master Yan, what kind of monster is this guy?”
“Whoa, Senior is amazing!”
“Senior, so powerful!”
Zong Hentian and the others were already stunned. They never imagined that their senior could withstand the punch of an ancient demonic beast with just his physical body. It was terrifying.
“Master Yan, why didn’t you call this guy out earlier? Why wait until we were all beaten to a pulp to show off the might of your Saint Sect?”
Hearing the complaints from the other sect leaders, Yanzi wore a bewildered expression.
“It’s not like that… it’s really not like that…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s lips curled into a cold smile. Although his physical body had broken through its limits, the ancient demonic beast’s strength was still beyond his ability to match.
But humans didn’t rely solely on cultivation; they had minds too.
Five sets of top-tier heavenly armor absorbed part of the force, leaving the remaining strength manageable for his body to endure.
“Ding! Congratulations, your experience in ‘Eternal Indestructibility’ has increased by 400 million.”
…
Lin Fan stood calmly in place, no longer being sent flying like before.
“Ancient demonic beast, your punches are nothing but a tickle to me now,” Lin Fan stared fiercely at the ancient beast, a cold smirk forming on his lips.
All of this was the result of the endless torment he had endured, all for the sake of killing this very creature.
“Your corpse, ancient demonic beast, is mine today.” Lin Fan now had his eyes on the ancient beast’s body.
“The City in My Palm” needed new power.
