“What the hell? How come there are still so many humans here?”
Lin Fan was confused. Wasn’t this place supposed to be accessible only to the ultimate强者? Yet where did all these humans come from?
Indeed, humans are just amazing. Somehow, so many of them showed up. He should contact reinforcements quickly and prepare for a showdown with the ultimate强者.
(Note: Since the original text contains the Chinese word “强者” (qiángzhě), meaning “strong one” or “ultimate强者,” and the instruction specifies not to retain Chinese characters, here’s the fully translated version without Chinese characters:)
Indeed, humans are just amazing. Somehow, so many of them showed up. He should contact reinforcements quickly and prepare for a showdown with the ultimate strong one.
“Hey, which group are you guys from?” Lin Fan shouted loudly.
However, to his surprise, that group seemed unwilling to acknowledge him, maintaining their alertness, and even giving off the vibe that they wanted to kill him.
“I’m a human too! We’re all compatriots! Can’t you guys at least respond?!” Lin Fan shouted again.
Unbeknownst to Lin Fan at this moment,
“Senior师兄, who is that guy riding the Abyss Flame Beast? And what does that roar mean?” A young woman in green robes, with a pretty face, gazed lovingly at her senior师兄.
“Hmph, someone who’s with the Abyss Flame Beast must be the leader here,” Liu Qingshan coldly replied, then turned to his juniors, “Stay safe everyone. I’ll go forward and kill him first, then you all activate the formation to eliminate these Abyss Flame Beasts.”
“Yes, Senior Brother,” everyone nodded. They moved their fingers and began forming the grand formation, ready to unleash it the moment their Senior Brother killed the leader.
There were at least tens of thousands of Abyss Flame Beasts here. Killing them all would yield an enormous amount of crystal cores.
Shoo!
Lin Fan was shouting himself hoarse, but those distant humans acted like they were mentally disabled, not even bothering to reply. This was so frustrating.
At this moment, Lin Fan noticed a man charging toward him, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“These humans are formidable! This person is actually at the peak of the Ancient Realm! How can humans be this strong? He’s practically on par with me!” Lin Fan was nearly stunned.
But thinking about it, humans were indeed born with unique advantages. If someone like himself, a genius beyond compare, could emerge, then having another couple of talents wasn’t surprising.
“Brother, what’s your name? I’m Lin Fan. Where exactly is this place?” Lin Fan intentionally omitted his title as the “Human Emperor,” thinking it sounded too domineering.
He wasn’t sure whether it might provoke the other party, so before getting familiar with them, it was better to stay low-key.
“Roar!”
Just then, the Abyss Flame Beast under Lin Fan suddenly roared furiously, followed quickly by others. One after another, their furious roars pierced the sky, as if they held deep hatred toward the approaching figure.
Seeing this, Lin Fan was shocked. What was going on with them? This guy was a human! They should at least show some friendliness!
Just as Lin Fan was about to speak to them, suddenly a cold gleam shot toward him.
His heart trembled, and he quickly looked up.
The approaching human, who had been flying toward him, now swung the three-foot-long green sword in his hand. A sword flower rippled through the void, sending out waves of energy expanding outward in circles.
A brilliant sword beam illuminated everything, with sharp sword intent focused into a single point at its tip, directly piercing toward Lin Fan’s forehead.
In the blink of an eye, it had already reached Lin Fan’s brow.
“Look! This is Senior Brother’s Void Sword Technique. No matter the distance, once locked onto, death is inevitable with a single strike. Remember last time, when that person challenged Senior Brother and was killed in one blow,” said one disciple.
“Senior师兄 is so powerful! The sword intent of this strike is overwhelming. Even from this distance, it makes our hairs stand on end. If师兄 wanted to kill us, we wouldn’t even have a chance to run.”
“The fate of this leader is already sealed—he will be slain by his senior apprentice brother.”
…
“What the hell!”
Lin Fan was shocked. He never expected this compatriot to actually attack him. Was this guy even human anymore?
Didn’t he seem to have wronged this person at all?
But this sword technique was indeed fast. If Lin Fan didn’t have extraordinary perception, he might not have reacted in time.
Even though he had noticed in time, it was already too late—the sword’s brilliance had already focused on Lin Fan’s forehead.
Clang!
A metallic sound erupted.
Lin Fan was furious, “What the hell are you ambushing me for?”
Liu Qingshan couldn’t understand what Lin Fan was saying. In his eyes, the leader was simply roaring in rage because of his attack.
What surprised Liu Qingshan, however, was how this leader could be so strong that his sword strike had no effect at all.
“This is impossible!”
At this moment, Liu Qingshan wanted to retreat, realizing that this leader’s strength was extraordinary, far from being as simple as he had imagined.
“What the hell, pretending not to understand me? Do you really think I’m afraid of fighting a fellow human?”
Lin Fan was furious. He immediately stretched out his hand and grabbed the sword blade, shouting angrily, “Are you an idiot? I was speaking politely to you, and you just suddenly attacked me. Do you really think I’m easy to bully?”
But in Liu Qingshan’s eyes, the leader was in a rage, then suddenly exerted force, shaking his wrist, sending an endless sword intent through.
However, Lin Fan’s physical body had already reached the peak of the Ancient Realm. Such an attack was practically useless against him.
“Speak! Who the hell are you? If you don’t talk, I’ll kill you!” Lin Fan grabbed the sword blade and tried to pull the opponent toward him.
Liu Qingshan furrowed his brows, immediately abandoning his sword and retreating rapidly.
This leader’s strength had exceeded Liu Qingshan’s expectations.
The disciples who had been watching their senior brother perform were now stunned.
“How is this possible? How could this leader withstand Senior Brother’s sword strike?”
“I don’t know. He’s so powerful that even my senior师兄 abandoned his Qing Shen Sword.”
“Hurry, let’s go help Senior Brother.”
At this moment, these disciples erupted with powerful magical energy and instantly activated the grand formation.
“Senior Brother, we’re coming to help you!”
Lin Fan was about to explode with rage. What the hell was going on with these guys? He also realized he couldn’t understand what they were saying.
Who exactly were these people?
At this moment, a hint of doubt arose in Lin Fan’s heart.
But there was no time to think further. If they wanted to fight, then so be it.
Lin Fan tightly gripped the sword he had caught.
Instantly, he felt the sword’s spirit struggling violently, as if trying to break free.
“Behave yourself!” Lin Fan roared, immediately suppressing the sword spirit, then gazed into the distance.
“You guys are too arrogant! Do you really think I’m easy to bully? Today, I’ll show you exactly how formidable I am!” Lin Fan suddenly soared into the sky.
A terrifying sword intent erupted from his body.
Meanwhile, Liu Qingshan, seeing the sword intent radiating from the leader, became serious, “Quickly, activate the formation and kill this demon!”
“Yes!”
“Qian Ming Heaven-Sundering Formation!”
At this moment, a vast power erupted from the formation, surging with an incomparable might.
“Die!”
At this point, Lin Fan didn’t care about anything else—if you dared to attack, I’ll kill you.
