Chapter 240 - Zhong Kui's unfathomable strength
“My test subjects can’t be weak, don’t let me down.” Zhong Kui said as his aura of darkness erupted upwards, creating a darkness that was 100 feet high.
In the next second, the great darkness suddenly entered Zhong Kui’s mouth.
Lin Tian actually wanted to attack Zhong Kui from here, but the great darkness made him unable to move as if Zhong Kui had expected this.
Not long after, the great Darkness disappeared, and Zhong Kui looked different from before..
He became taller, about 9 feet, his pupils became pitch black, his horns extended, his ears extended, his wings spread to twice his body size, and even his cloak had disappeared and was replaced with a dark energy armor that covered all parts of his body, except for his face.
It seemed that Zhong Kui took Lin Tian seriously, or his mindset of never underestimating his enemies.
“It’s been a long time since I haven’t fought earnestly, don’t let me down.” Zhong Kui said with a grin as he looked at Lin Tian.
“Don’t worry, I’ll beat you to death.” Lin Tian said coldly.
“Enough talking nonsense, come over!” Zhong Kui said nonchalantly.
Hearing this, the three flames that enveloped him slowly disappeared and were replaced with golden and dark armor.
It was the armor of boundless darkness and Wang Qi.
Not only that, but the three flames also rose up and made a triangle and rotated like a top.
Then it descended downwards and enveloped Lin Tian once more.
In the next second, the three flames disappeared, but Lin Tian looked different from before.
The three flames seemed to be part of Lin Tian, his hair became white, and his pupils became blood red.
Lin Tian had thought this from the start, he wanted to end this quickly.
Zhong Kui was very strong, he knew it, which was why he didn’t hesitate to use one of his trump cards.
“Let’s end this and decide who the victor is.” Lin Tian said coldly.
“Hahaha, I like your style.” Zhong Kui grinned.
The next second, he disappeared.
Stab!
Zhong Kui suddenly appeared before Lin Tian and pierced his body from the darkness in his hand which he manipulated into a sharp object.
But his expression was dissatisfied.
He managed to stab Lin Tian’s body with a sharp object, but it was his shadow made of flame.
Clank!
Lin Tian suddenly slashed at Zhong Kui from behind with Zhuxian’s sword, but it was blocked by a dark sword-shaped object.
“This is indeed a good technique.” Zhong Kui smirked.
Clank!
Clank!
Clank!
The two of them clashed swords at a speed that the eye could not follow, Zhong Kui’s darkness was so dense that Zhuxian’s sword was unable to slash through it.
But none of them looked weak, Lin Tian seemed to have gotten used to the destructive power of the peak level Transcendent after his experience against Luo Gu.
Clank!
The two swords collided, making a deafening sound and an aura that exploded like a hurricane.
The two of them took a few steps back.
“Would you like to continue? I can serve all the time.” Zhong Kui said nonchalantly.
Zhuxian’s sword was indeed very powerful, but he had the experience to fight it.
It was indeed a bad experience, but he became stronger and more experienced after that.
“Probably not.” Lin Tian said lightly as the Zhuxian sword in his hand disappeared.
But his feet signaled that he was going to move in a certain direction.
“Probably yes.” Lin Tian suddenly appeared beside Zhong Kui and was about to slash his neck.
Clank!
Unfortunately, there was a dark object blocking the sword from slashing at Zhong Kui’s neck.
“After doing the technique, you did it a second time, do you think I didn’t prepare for it?” Zhong Kui grinned.
Lin Tian’s eyes widened and there was a look of disbelief on his expression, Zhong Kui’s sword pierced through his body!
Even though it wasn’t a vital point, it almost sliced his heart.
Boom!
Lin Tian suddenly exploded a sun flame, sending him back a dozen steps back.
‘That bastard, he’s very thorough.’ Lin Tian said seriously as he clutched his chest.
Zhong Kui was different from Luo Gu, Luo Gu was more arrogant and looked down on his opponent, but not Zhong Kui, he was a genius.
‘Shit, why isn’t this regenerating?’ Lin Tian said seriously when he saw his wound not regenerating.
“You want to end this quickly, then do it, I can’t wait to dissect your body too!” Zhong Kui’s aura was so dark and massive, that it even covered his entire body and only his red eyes were blazing ferociously.
“End this? Like you said!” Lin Tian said as his aura became stronger and suppressive.
And before he realized it, Zhong Kui suddenly appeared before him and there were dozens of dark sharp objects behind him ready to stab him.
Whoosh!
But Zhong Kui immediately retreated backward as a smoldering flame emerged from the floor.
“This is, hellfire.” Zhong Kui frowned when he realized what fire it was.
Lin Tian didn’t waste the opportunity, he lunged at Zhong Kui while his hands formed a hellfire claw.
Scratch!
Zhong Kui dodged, but Lin Tian’s attack range was far enough that his face was cut slightly.
He took a dozen steps back and held his bleeding cheek.
“You have that brat’s fire, did you eat the heart?” Zhong Kui asked curiously.
There was no answer from Lin Tian, Lin Tian just charged toward him at full speed.
“Well, I take that as a yes, and that’s great news for me.” Zhong Kui said with a grin.
Bang!
The hellfire’s destructive punch was able to nearly crack Luo Gu’s wall of darkness.
Bang!
Hitting once more, the wall of darkness shattered, but Luo Gu had disappeared.
“Cough!” Lin Tian spat out a mouthful of blood, there were dozens of long sharp objects piercing his body from behind.
“It’s a shame to show my true strength at this moment, but I know how troublesome hellfire can be.” Zhong Kui grinned as he stabbed deeper into Lin Tian’s body.
“Cough!” Lin Tian looked in a lot of pain, and blood was pouring out of his mouth.
