Chapter 16 Sky Star Mountain Range

Zhou Gang struck as soon as disagreement arose.

A longsword appeared in his hand, and in a flash, he swung out nine strikes, forming waves of sword strikes flooding towards Lin Fan like a tidal surge.

At the same time, the might of being half-step into Profound was suddenly incorporated into his attack, making it much more formidable.

After Zhou Gang made his move, Lin Fan felt as if the space around him was completely sealed off, even his breathing seemed difficult.

"An expert who is half-step into Profound is indeed extraordinary!" Lin Fan thought to himself, "If it weren't for the Combat Image in my mind, I might not be a match for Zhou Gang!"

This Combat Image was an ability Lin Fan had awakened from a cliffside; it was this ability that helped him map out a route from the cliff to the Lin Family's backyard, allowing him to easily walk out from the cliff bottom.

Now, as his skills improved, this ability slowly unlocked some mysterious functions. Lin Fan also knew this thing was called Universal Image, not only could it simulate path maps, but it could also simulate Combat Images, it was truly heaven-defying.

At the very moment Zhou Gang made his move, the "Combat Projection" feature in Lin Fan's mind had already activated, projecting every move of Zhou Gang into Lin Fan's mind, and Lin Fan had already figured out a counter-strategy.

The nine waves of sword strikes soon reached in front of Lin Fan, looking as if they would completely engulf him!

"One Element Soul-snatching Spear!" At that moment, Lin Fan shouted, and the Dragon Abyss Spear appeared in his hand, the first spear strike of the Soul Essence Spear Technique was thrust out.

After Lin Fan launched his spear strike, it was like an indestructible sword, shattering the nine waves of swords unleashed by Zhou Gang, and instantly broke through his attack.

"This…"

Zhou Gang's heart skipped a beat, he thought to himself, "This waste, he's actually this formidable?"

The surrounding people were equally astonished.

They had originally thought that Lin Fan would surely die under Zhou Gang's attack, but who would have expected Lin Fan to break through so easily?

At this time, Lin Fan said with a smile, "A cultivation at half-step into Profound, yet can only deliver such an attack? Truly shameful, if I were you, I'd rather smash myself with a block of tofu and die!"

"Don't be arrogant, you will soon pay a price for your arrogance!" Zhou Gang roared loudly.

His longsword continuously waved, weaving a vast Sword Net, sealing off the space around Lin Fan.

However, Lin Fan still easily broke through it.

Next, Zhou Gang continuously attacked.

But no matter how Zhou Gang attacked, Lin Fan dealt with it casually, merely with the move "Life Spear", he could break all of Zhou Gang's attacks.

This time, not only were the bystanders shocked, even Zhou Gang's heart started to feel uneasy.

Zhou Gang originally thought that with his half-step into Profound cultivation, slaughtering Lin Fan would be a matter of minutes, only to find that after battling for so long he still couldn't get the better of Lin Fan?

Zhou Gang felt this was a disgrace.

Suddenly, Lin Fan spoke, "Alright, my turn to make a move!"

"One Element Soul-snatching Spear!"

Life Spear, striking once again.

However, this time Lin Fan's deployment of Life Spear was fundamentally different from before; previously, he used Life Spear for defense, but this time, Lin Fan's Life Spear was used for attack.

As Lin Fan's Soul-snatching Spear strike was unleashed, a spear light appeared like a sudden venomous snake.

"Not good!"

Zhou Gang's expression drastically changed because soon after Lin Fan's spear light appeared, he realized, with horror, that the momentum within the spear was like the Yangtze River, and at the same time, a dense ancient pressure emerged, sweeping towards him.

Zhou Gang felt that under such circumstances, all his defenses were futile.

"Run!"

Without hesitation, Zhou Gang turned and prepared to flee.

　　"Haha!"

　　However, at this moment, Lin Fan burst into laughter, saying, "You wanted to kill me before, didn't you? Thinking of running away now, it's already too late!"

　　As Lin Fan's words fell, the speed of the Spear light suddenly accelerated, and in an instant, it was already behind Zhou Gang.

　　Without any hesitation, Zhou Gang expended all his energy to form a long defense behind him.

　　However, Zhou Gang's defense was so feeble that Lin Fan's Spear light easily pierced through it, and the next moment, pierced through his body.

　　Zhou Gang slowly turned around, pointing at Lin Fan incredulously and said, "You... you... you actually dared to kill me? You're dead for sure, you..."

　　Lin Fan said indifferently, "To be honest, I am actually not fond of killing people, but since you wanted to kill me, I had no choice but to slay you, because keeping you alive could potentially bring me trouble."

　　"I... my Zhou Family's people will definitely kill you, just you wait, I..."

　　Zhou Gang hadn't finished speaking when his body slowly fell down.

　　Zhou Gang died!

　　His eyes were wide open in death, refusing to close.

　　The people around all looked at Lin Fan with extremely shocked expressions. Finally, they realized that Lin Fan was a demon, because after killing Zhou Gang, he did not even blink an eye?

　　Such a person is too terrifying!

　　Lin Fan ignored everyone's shock and started striding toward the Sky Star mountain range, eventually completely disappearing into the mountains, vanishing from everyone's sight.

　　"This... this guy, actually ventured into the Sky Star mountain range alone? Is he seeking his own death?" someone said in disbelief.

　　"That's right, he is seeking death! No, to put it accurately, he is delivering himself to death!" another person said.

　　After a while, an elder furiously charged over, and upon seeing Zhou Gang's corpse on the ground, he roared angrily, "Lin Fan you little beast, you actually dared to kill our young master, I swear, I will make your life worse than death."

　　It turned out this elder was the Earth Profound realm expert from the Zhou Family tasked with protecting Zhou Gang, named Zhou Qianyong.

　　The next moment, Zhou Qianyong rushed into the Sky Star mountain range to pursue and kill Lin Fan.

　　Just as Zhou Qianyong entered the Sky Star mountain range, two figures also quickly arrived.

　　These two people were actually the Great Elder of Lin Family, Lin Zhenhua, and his grandson, Lin Tianlin.

　　After they were rescued from Lin Family, they immediately headed towards the Sky Star Sect.

　　At this time, there was much discussion about Lin Fan's slaying of Zhou Gang, and Lin Zhenhua and Lin Tianlin quickly ascertained the whole story.

　　"Grandfather!"

　　Lin Tianlin looked at Lin Zhenhua and said, "That guy must be planning to go to the Sky Star Sect."

　　Lin Zhenhua's face darkened to an extreme, coldly saying, "Sky Star mountain range will be where that boy meets his end."

　　Lin Tianlin asked, "Grandfather, do you mean..."

　　Lin Zhenhua said, "Pursue and kill Lin Fan in the Sky Star mountain range, no matter the cost, we must slay him."

　　Lin Tianlin said, "Grandfather, the Sky Star mountain range is full of dangers, with Lin Fan entering alone, even without our intervention, the demon beasts inside will also slay him, so, do we really need to take action ourselves?"

　　Lin Zhenhua waved his hand and said, "That little beast Lin Fan, if I don't see his corpse, I will never feel at ease. Let's not delay, let us depart immediately and pursue Lin Fan."

　　Afterward, Lin Zhenhua and Lin Tianlin also quickly entered into the Sky Star mountain range, also preparing to pursue and kill Lin Fan.

　　Naturally, Lin Fan was unaware that Zhou Qianyong and the grandfather-grandson pair of Lin Zhenhua were pursuing him. After entering the Sky Star mountain range, a strange route map appeared again in his mind. Without any doubt, Lin Fan followed this route towards the direction of Sky Star Sect.

　　For others, walking in the Sky Star mountain range is extremely dangerous.

　　However, the route map in his mind chose a very safe path for Lin Fan, so there was little difference for him walking outside, although along the way he encountered a few demon beasts, these were not worth mentioning for Lin Fan, and he resolved them with ease.
