Chapter 150 - 150: Arrival Of The Elder
But his pride wouldn't allow him to back down in front of this lower realm trash.
The envoy just said, "You think that you can win with these petty tricks, just watch as I crush them."
Then after that, he took out a staff with a fire red crystal inlaid at the top of it.
This was his personal artifact, his weapon of choice. He hadn't used this before because his pride wouldn't allow him to do so. If he did use it, it meant that he was taking this lower realm trash seriously and that was something that crossed his bottom line.
But now he had no choice but to use it since he knew that it would be dangerous for him if he didn't.
Still now that he had taken it out, he definitely would show no mercy at all for this lower realm trash that had forced this out of him. His pride wouldn't allow this trash to be even at the same level as him!
But Lin Fan saw this and was still relaxed since he was confident in the power of the combination of five laws, even though he had never seen how strong it was before.
Lin Fan just slowly moved forward and said, "Are you sure you can do that though?"
The envoy just gave a cold snort as he watched Lin Fan walk up in front of him, allowing him to be standing right in front of him.
They both looked at each other in silence for a few seconds before suddenly swinging their weapons at each other.
Lin Fan did a simple slash down with his zweihander sword, bringing the power of all five laws down onto the envoy.
As for the envoy, he had pulled his staff back and held it like a sword before stabbing out with the crystal at the front, which had condensed every single flame that had been surrounding him. The crystal released a fire red glow as it shot out right at Lin Fan's sword.
The moment the two weapons met, there wasn't a large explosion like one would have expected. Rather, there were distortions in the air created by the compressed energy as they continued to battle against each other. It seemed like both sides were equal for now as they continued pushing back and forth, with a bit of the red flame energy from the envoy being drained away by Lin Fan's weapon.
Finally after a few seconds of evenly pushing each other back, the zweihander that Lin Fan slowly pushed forward, pushing down the staff of the envoy. Eventually, the zweihander's blade completely cut through the crystal at the end of the staff, shattering it to pieces.
The zweihander didn't stop there as it scattered the red flame energy of the envoy and continued down until it slammed the envoy in the chest.
Luckily the envoy still had a second trump card. He was wearing a set of armour underneath his clothes that was also a Fragmented Soul Realm Artifact, which helped block some of the force.
However, Lin Fan's zweihander sword was an Embryo Soul Artifact, which meant it contained the power of laws from the Embryo Soul Realm. The gap between these two realms was even greater than that of the Platinum Realm and the Legendary Realm!
The zweihander didn't cut through the armour, but it still created enough blunt force that it completely collapsed the armour that the envoy was wearing, slamming him right into the ground. As the envoy was slammed into the ground, there was a large crater that was created all around him.
As the envoy laid there spitting out blood with a look of disbelief that had appeared the moment he saw the crystal at the end of his staff shatter, Lin Fan's arms holding the zweihander slowly fell to both sides of him, weakly dangling there like the bone inside had been shattered.
The crystal at the end of the envoy's staff was a Fire God Crystal, which was a rare crystal that his father had found for him. It had the ability to contain large amounts of fire energy inside and amplify it by compressing the fire energy.
The envoy was only in the low Fragmented Soul Realm, but with the combination of the life energy from his pet and his own life energy being combined and amplified by the Fire God Crystal, his attack just now had been at the mid Fragmented Soul Realm. This was an attack that should have been considered unparalleled in this lower realm, yet he had still lost.
There were two key factors that had decided this battle.
One was the strange suction power that Lin Fan had. It had allowed Lin Fan to draw away some of the fire energy that was in the envoy's attack and supplement it into his own attack. To put it in a simpler way, it was like dulling the enemy's blade while sharpening your own since the attribute of the flame laws was explosive power. Taking away the explosive power of the envoy's attack and supplementing it into his own, it had allowed him to shatter through.
The second factor was the Iron Eater Artifact. This was an artifact in the Embryo Soul Realm with residual Embryo Soul Realm laws. Even if they were residual laws, they were still much stronger than that of the Fragmented Soul Realm.
Lin Fan stood over the envoy looking down at the envoy laying in the crater.
The envoy looked up at Lin Fan in terror, before calling out, "Someone, take him down right now! Do you know how important I am! My father will take all your heads if anything happens to me!"
But no one dared to make a move since they were all terrified of Lin Fan. The energy waves that had come from their battle was something that had far surpassed their realms.
There were even people who doubted that Lin Fan was already in the Legendary Realm based on how he had defeated the envoy.
The Alchemy Master even took a step back in fear since he never expected this to happen. He felt the same helpless feeling that he had felt when his arm had been shattered in Lin Fan's shop before.
Lin Fan just ignored the frantic pleas of the envoy. In truth, he really wanted to kill the envoy right now, but his arms had actually been shattered in that attack.
The force of the combination of five laws had created tremendous strain on his body, he was lucky enough to only get away with all the bones in his arms being shattered.
But he wasn't just lucky, it was also because of the special God Tier Cultivation Technique that he had received in the beginning from the system. This cultivation technique had trained his body to a point where his physique was stronger than the laws he controlled, allowing his body to take the strain of combining laws. If his physique had only been in the Platinum Realm, he wouldn't have gotten away with just shattered arms…
Still, Lin Fan couldn't just let him go now that things had developed to this point.
Lin Fan pushed through the pain in his arms and raised his leg over the head of the envoy who could only helplessly lay there.
The envoy's eyes opened even wider in fear when he saw this and his tone immediately changed, "I'll give you anything, anything you desire as long as you don't kill me! You should know that my father is a very powerful man in the upper realm, I can definitely be of use to you if you spare me!"
But Lin Fan didn't stop there as he began bringing his leg down.
The envoy's pleading became even more frantic, "No! You can't kill me, my life is worth more than this entire lower realm! If you kill me, do you think this lower realm will be spared! I'll do anything to live, just let me live!"
Then when Lin Fan's foot was about to fall down on the envoy's head, there was a sudden spiritual sense that had suddenly stopped it from falling any further. The envoy's eyes were wide open and pouring tears as he looked at the foot that was only a single inch away from his face.
There was a voice that rang out through the entire hall, "Little friend, how about we stop there?"
When everyone turned to look at the origin of that voice, they found that it was an old man who had suddenly appeared on the stage where only the two of them had been previously. Everyone else had already evacuated the moment they started their fight.
Once the envoy turned to look at this old man, his eyes filled with hope and joy like he had seen his saving grace.
The envoy joyfully shouted, "Ha, ha, ha, now you're finished! I don't know what unlucky star you were born under, but this is one of the five elders of our Alchemy King Hall! You will now feel the consequences of the Alchemy King…"
But before he could finish, the voice of the old man boomed out once again, "Shut your mouth for this old man right now!"
