Chapter 196 The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointments

Cover!

Within no time, the strings coiling around the area wiggled violently, converging on top of Qian Ji and formed a thick and sturdy net.

The mace slammed onto the net. A strong force from the net stopped the mace from reaching Qian Ji.

I'm very interested in the skillset that can make an Earth Star Border stage Six this powerful. However, the difference between our realms is not something that one can overcome easily.

Pierce through.

Qian Ji stretched his hands out instantly. Numerous strings could be seen coiling around his fingers, their tips shining brightly. They came for Lin Fan, wanting to pierce through him and tear his body open.

Lin Fan raised his left hand and with a terrifying aura, the frying pan came for Qian Ji's head

Puke!

The strings on Qian Ji fingers pierced through Lin Fan's body violently.

BangThe frying pan slammed on Qian Ji's face. A strong force could be felt as Qian Ji was thrown afar.

Ten holes could be seen on Lin Fan's chest. On every hole, there were numerous strings struggling outside the holes to get in.

What are these? Freaking disgusting. Lin Fan grabbed onto the tail of the strings and pulled them out in a manner as if he could not feel pain. There was blood and flesh stuck onto the strings as Lin Fan flung them onto the ground hard.

Creak! From afar, Qian Ji stood up. Half of his cheeks were covered with a web made of strings. He managed to block the previous attack, but the powerful force from Lin Fan made blood flow from the corner of his mouth.

You're powerful. And you're definitely not a nameless person. Who are you? Qian Ji glared at Lin Fan coldly. During their fight, he had figured out that Lin Fan was in Earth Star Border stage Six, but he had undeniable strength.

It scared Qian Ji, especially the way that Lin Fan fought. He did not even have an idea of how to defend himself.

He was not able to react in time to the previous attack, but luckily, he used his strings as a shield. Or my brain would be smashed by now.

You're supposed to enjoy a fight, not speak nonsense.

Boom!

With Lin Fan as the centre, a strong force exploded outwards. The ground started to crack, spider-web patterns forming. Lin Fan was now nowhere to be seen, but a dent could be seen on the spot he was originally standing.

Qian Ji's face changed and he watched his surroundings closely. He swung his right arm as numerous strings arose from it, covering the entire arm. His skin has now changed into white coloured strings now.

I've found you! Qian Ji yelled and moved his body, slashing the empty space with his right arm. A strong force could be felt as the empty space tore apart. Having the ability to do so proved that Qian Ji was a powerful cultivator since he only had the cultivation of an Earth Star Border stage Nine. Clang!

A figure appeared out of the blue, and the frying pan on his hand clashed with Qian Ji's right hand. A strong force from the impact caused all the surrounding items to be destroyed. Not only so, but the air was also affected. Like waves, the air separated into layers.

Pitter-patter!

The figure of both men could be seen flickering in the sky. Every time they flickered, a loud explosion could be heard. The ground cracked continuously and Invisible earth energy diffused all over the place wherever the ground cracked, forming circular craters.

A deep boom rang across the area.

Bang!

Two figures appeared slowly. They were a distance apart from each other. A wound could be seen on Lin Fan's chest, and blood was gushing out of the wound like a waterfall. The blood flowed to his feet in streams and was absorbed back into his body again.

Wow. You're so powerful. It's been ages since I had such an intense fight.

Adrenaline coursed through Lin Fan's body. He was filled with excitement. It's indeed thrilling to fight a worthy opponent.

This feels even better compared to the times where I killed my enemies with just one punch.

On the other hand, Qian Ji's face had turned red in anger. His right hand trembled continuously, and bones could be seen sticking out of his skin.

After clashing with the other party about ten times, he was amazed by how strong his opponent's strength was. The opponent was so strong that it made even Qian Ji feel pressured. Not only so, but Qian Ji was also fearful of his insane fighting style.

He managed to seize a chance and injured the other party's chest with his right hand. However, not only did the other party not dodge the attack, he counter attacked and broke his right arm. It was so fierce that a bone ended up piercing through his skin.

Trickle!

Blood rolled down Qian Ji's arm.

Instantly, as if his blood had a mind of its own, the drop of blood gushed towards Lin Fan. The blood on his wound seemed to be affected by the other party, the blood seemed to be struggling out of his wounds. If Qian Ji wasn't controlling it, he might have already been sucked dry by Lin Fan.

You're indeed something, huh? Lin Fan laughed and raised a finger. A ball of flame could be seen burning on his finger. He then directed the flame to his chest and let it burn his skin, forming a scar on his chest and forcefully cauterizing his wounds.

What the hell are you? This scene made Qian Ji gulp. He had never come across anyone who treated himself in such a cruel manner. Not just that, but the other party did not seem to feel pain at all.

Alright. Don't ask so much. It's a waste of my saliva to talk to someone who's going to die anyway. Lin Fan laughed excitedly. He's even more excited to fight.

This feels good. So damn good.

Qian Ji endured the pain and stuffed his bone back into his arm. Strings then went into his arm to forcefully stop his bleeding.

Good. Very good. It's been very long since I've met someone like you. Qian Ji said, swinging his hands.

But if you think that's all I can do then you're just belittling me. He glared at Lin Fan.

Instantly, Qian Ji's aura changed. Numerous strings could be seen coming out from his foot, wiggling in front of Qian Ji.

Let me show you what I can do. Don't be too shocked.

Absolute cover!

Instantly, the strings from the bottom coiled around Qian Ji's foot, covering him up. The strings then made their way up his legs, waist and up to even his head. The strings covered Qian Ji up in no time.

Lin Fan laughed and with a bang, he disappeared again. When he reappeared, he was in front of Qian Ji and swinging at him with his mace.

You're too slow, Qian Ji sneered. He moved his body and sent a punch towards Lin Fan's waist.

Bang!

Lin Fan flew backwards and crashed into a cliff, forming a dent in it. Dust flew all over the place.

Qian Ji massaged his fingers and moved his neck. You're powerful. But not enough.

Is that so?

Suddenly, Lin Fan's voice could be heard from the crater. He grabbed onto the wall of the cliff with his big black colored fingers. He stepped out casually.

The attack had caused a dent in his waist, and it looked as if something shattered his skin, wounds cut all over his chest and blood was gushing out.

You have given your all, so I should do the same. I hope you will not disappoint me.

Piak!

Lin Fan took a step forward, staring at Qian Ji with his bloody eyes. A dense black coloured fog could be seen coming out from his body like flames. It stayed on Lin Fan's body and followed him.

What is this? Qian Ji was gathering his strength, but all of a sudden, his face fell. He could feel a scary aura coming from the other party.

Lin Fan walked towards Qian Ji step by step. Each step he took, the amount of black coloured demon gas increased.

Qian Ji moved slightly. The aura felt as if it was from a powerful devil. It sent chills running down Qian Ji's spine.

Embryonic devil form! This was the trait of the Extreme demonic secrets. An unusual skill which he made when he was creating skillsets. Devil's domain!

A solemn voice could be heard.

Changes could be seen taking place to the earth's yellow ground. A black coloured shadow covered the ground and grew continuously. What's going on exactly? Qian Ji's heart sank. He realised that the current situation was getting weirder and weirder. When he looked up at the other party, the colour drained from his face.

The pitch-black figure had gotten a shade blacker. He felt like there were black coloured chains tied around the other party's body, but he couldn't see them clearly. Qian Ji couldn't tell if the chains were real, or if it was just an illusion.

Boom!

When Qian Ji was still in shock, the figure disappeared. When Lin Fan reappeared once again, Qian Ji saw a black coloured fist piercing through the air and coming for him.

No matter what you are, you must die! Qian Ji shouted and clenched his fist, forcefully crashing against the other party. When the fists met, Qian Ji felt a strong force banging onto him. The strings around his hand were unable to withstand the force and cracked. Qian Ji flew backwards. He looked up into the sky, flabbergasted.

How could this be? Qian Ji was unable to believe that he did not have the ability to resist the previous attack. Suddenly, his pupils shrunk. The sky was replaced by a figure.

We are not done yet. Lin Fan put his hands together and held them up, smashing down on him.

Pui!

Qian Ji puked blood and smashed down to the ground, cracking it. Dried mud flew up, and a deep pit was formed.

Piak!

Lin Fan stood at the edge of the pit. He looked down and muttered to himself, looking upset.

It seems that I'm thinking too much.

If I give my all, you can't even take one punch from me. Perhaps only Heaven Star Border realms fighters can make me feel pressure.

Lin Fan looked up at the sky and reached out his hands. He acted as if he was trying to pull the sun down from the sky.

*Ah! Don't be too presumptuous!* An angry voice could be heard coming from the pit. The strings around Qian Ji's chest had all cracked open, exposing his skin. In a mess, Qian Ji came towards Lin Fan like a ray of light.

Anger could be seen swimming in his eyes. He felt that he has been humiliated badly.

Don't disturb me. I'm thinking about life.

Lin Fan stretched his hand out and slapped Qian Ji hard on his head. The strings that were around his head shattered and his head exploded. A stream of blood gushed out from his neck.

A headless corpse could now be seen lying beneath Lin Fan's feet.

Haish, the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
