Chapter 196 - 196: Shadow Laws



The masked figure was about to make another attack on Lin Fan, but there was a wind blade that suddenly appeared in front of him. 

He quickly raised the dagger in his hand to guard against it and while he was able to scatter it, the wind blade had pushed him back several meters.

​​

He could tell from the aura of the wind blade that it was an attack that was only in the mid Platinum Realm, but even with all his power, he couldn't block it at all.

The masked figure turned back to Lin Fan and Angela, looking at them with a trace of fear in his eyes. These two people were clearly not normal, perhaps it would be best not to fight them directly. He had to report to Lord Jin and make sure they knew about this person.

Yin Zi was shocked when she had seen all of this.

Even though she had been surrounded, she had been confident since this Lord Yin had contacted her to tell her that he was nearby.

She had been working with the Beast Clan for a long time and she had known this Lord Yin for a while, so naturally she knew how powerful he was. Yet now he was being pushed back by these two people from the Monster Trainer Union.

But thinking about all the things that the Beast Clan had shown her, she pushed down the slight bit of hesitation that had appeared.

She took out a dark pearl that the Beast Clan had given her and she said, "Lord Yin, I'll help you. Let's take care of them."

But that Lord Yin raised his hand and said, "Wait."

After that, Lord Yin turned back to Lin Fan and asked again, "Who are you? You shouldn't be someone from this lower realm with that weapon of yours. Why are you here?"

Lin Fan still gave the same response, "It's still polite to introduce yourself before asking others. Moreover, you're quite the rude person, attacking without any notice."

Lord Yin didn't attack immediately like he had done the last time, rather this time it seemed like he was more than willing to talk.  Lord Yin paused for a second before saying, "Which upper realm are you from? The Galactic Humanity Alliance shouldn't have any manpower to spare with their current situation, so you must be from one of the Coalitions."

The Coalitions that Lord Yin spoke of were upper realms that controlled a number of lower realms, using them as a source of resources and talent.

The Galactic Humanity Alliance was one of those Coalitions and if it were to be compared to the scale of gatherings on earth, it would be equal to a small town.

Then there were the lower realms that were below them, which would only be considered small villages. To put it simply, to the people of the Beast Clan, the people here were nothing more than ignorant villagers.

But Lin Fan was clearly different, that was evident in the artifact that he had.

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I'm someone from this lower realm, I have no idea what you're talking about."

Lord Yin's face turned a bit ugly when he heard this, but he continued, "I don't know what your goals are for this lower realm, but I can tell you now that there's something important to the Beast Clan here. As long as you're willing to cooperate with us, we can both fulfill our goals here. There's nothing to gain if we fight each other."

Lin Fan revealed a thoughtful look before asking, "What's important to the Beast Clan on this planet? If you tell me, I might be able to consider this."

Lord Yin's expression relaxed a bit when he heard this.

If possible, after that clash just now, he wanted to avoid fighting Lin Fan if it was possible. Now that the other side was open to the possibility of negotiating, he would definitely take this chance.

Lord Yin calmly said, "I can't tell you that since even I don't know the specifics, but I can tell you that there is an important item for the Beast Clan here. We don't want to harm this planet, but they have been keeping us away from this item for tens of thousands of years now, so we have no choice. If possible, we just want to obtain that item and leave."

Then he added, "As long as you're willing to help us open this planar crack, our experts will come through to find the item and take it back. Once that is done, we'll leave this planet immediately. Of course, we'll also help you achieve whatever goal you're trying to achieve in this lower realm."

Lin Fan revealed a thoughtful look as well as he pondered over this.

Of course he didn't believe this Lord Yin's words when he said that they would leave as soon as they received what they wanted.

The Beast Clan were for the most part savages that relied on their instincts to survive. Of course that didn't apply for all beasts, since there were beasts with extreme intelligence like Brainy that were more civilized than most people.

But for the most part, the Beast Clan relied on instincts and one of their more baser instincts was their greed. They wouldn't just stop at the item they were looking for, they would take all the resources that this lower realm had before moving on.

This was evident in the many other planets that the Beast Clan had already destroyed. This was one of the key pieces of knowledge that the upper realm spread to ensure that all humans were afraid of the Beast Clan, while also being willing to fight them to protect themselves.

But while his words did contain lies, there were parts that could be true.

If the Beast Clan were searching for something specific, that would explain a lot. Such as why the Beast Clan had even been willing to send a single mutation beast like Lord Yu down to this lower realm.

It had to be known that each mutated beast was a very rare resource for the Beast Clan.

All mutated beasts were guaranteed to reach the Legendary Realm and become King Beasts, but it didn't just end there. Mutated beasts were much stronger than normal beasts and they even had intelligence that was close to that of humans, which made them perfect commanders for the Beast Race.

For them to send a precious mutated beast down to a lower realm like the Blue Star Planet, unless there was something special with this lower realm, that was something that should have been impossible.

All of this just confirmed one fact, there was indeed something special about the Blue Star Planet for the Beast Clan.

After being in thought, Lin Fan slowly said, "It isn't impossible for us to work together, but…"

Lord Yin hung onto Lin Fan's words and repeated, "But?"

Lin Fan then said, "Unfortunately, I am not from the upper realm like you think and this is indeed my home, so I can't just let the Beast Clan just destroy it."

Lord Yin's expression fell when he heard this, "You! You want to…"

But before he could even finish, Lin Fan's right hand had around come up and the white dagger in his hand had been thrown out.

This white dagger quickly flew through the air and there was a faint three coloured glow that surrounded it, releasing gold, white, and blue lights.

Lord Yin could feel extreme danger coming from this dagger and with how fast it was going, he knew that it would be close to impossible for him to dodge, but he didn't panic.

As the dagger flew through the air and quickly approached him, Lord Yin's figure suddenly became transparent.

The dagger quickly flew at him and soon passed right through his transparent form, landing in a tree behind him, completely cutting that tree down. The dagger continued through several more trees, cutting them all down before finally landing in the ground, creating a giant crater.

Lord Yin slowly came back into existence, becoming opaque again. The attack had completely passed through him, like he hadn't been there.

But after Lord Yin fully came back into existence, after a few seconds of no reactions at all, there was blood that suddenly dripped down the bottom of his pierrot mask.

As the lines of blood dripped down, Lord Yin suddenly clutched his chest and couldn't help faltering a step.

What Lord Yin had used was his shadow laws to fall into a shadow dimension that was hidden in the cracks of the real world. Once he entered the shadow dimension, he would become immune to attacks in the real world, but that was only up to a certain limit.

Lin Fan's Iron Eater Bone Artifact had clearly broken that limit, reaching a point where his laws of shadow couldn't negate it completely.

The Iron Eater Bone Artifact itself was an Embryo Soul Artifact and adding in the three combined laws that were strong enough to match the laws of the Fragmented Soul Realm, this was an attack that could already match the power of a Legendary Realm Expert.

Even if Lord Yin was in the peak Platinum Realm, he was still not in the Legendary Realm, which was a giant gap that was like heaven and earth.

So the shockwave from the attack had seriously injured him, but he knew that this was a chance for him since Lin Fan had just thrown his artifact away. He was certain that was the only thing that had allowed Lin Fan to match him.

But when he looked back at Lin Fan, he saw that he already had the white dagger back in his hand.
