Chapter 942 Duel (2)
In this place, other than these juniors, there was no one else.
When they had come back to the palace, everyone had heard about the conflict between Lin Hong and Lin Fan right away and wanted to come watch. But this was a matter that concerned the prestige of these Lin Astral Family juniors, so their guards had immediately locked down the area and prevented anyone from coming in.
There was plenty of sound that came from outside as disappointed servants were sent away by the guards.𝓞𝚟𝗅xt.𝑐𝓞𝑚
But none of that affected Lin Fan and Lin Hong who were standing in the arena.
The two of them were looking at each other, but they clearly had different expressions on their faces.
Lin Fan stood there with a relaxed look while Lin Hong had a slightly tense look as he stared at Lin Fan.
He didn’t know what it was, but by just standing there, he was feeling pressure from Lin Fan.
But that shouldn’t be right!
He was clearly the one that was stronger here!
So why was he feeling pressure from this person who was younger than him and had a lower level of cultivation?
It didn’t make sense at all!
There was no way that he should be afraid of this person!
But yet…there was that feeling deep down that he couldn’t deny…
After a long period of silence, Lin Hong suddenly made the first move.
With a single thought, there were three large pets that appeared behind him. It was a rhino, an elephant, and a hippo.
All three of them released powerful auras and it was clear that they were just as strong as Lin Hong.
All three of them were in the High Planet Realm just like him.
The Lin Astral Family juniors were surprised to see this.
They hadn’t expected Lin Hong to go this far just for a duel against someone younger and weaker than him. After all, Lin Hong was recognized as the strongest in the younger generation for a reason.
There was no one that could fight against even one of these pets, let alone all three at the same time.
When he fought with all three, he was strong enough to even match Sun Realm Experts.
Still, seeing all of Lin Hong’s pets come out at the same time assured them.
If Lin Hong was taking the fight this seriously, there was no chance that Lin Fan would be able to win.
But when Lin Fan saw this, he couldn’t help revealing a relaxed smile.
It was as if he wasn’t worried about this fight at all.
All of them couldn’t help being confused when they saw this and at the same time, they couldn’t help feeling a bit worried.
Could it be that Lin Fan had a trump card up his sleeve?
No, that was impossible.
Even if he had dragon vein crystals, it was impossible for him to surpass the gap of an entire major realm. After all, it wasn’t as if there was anything that could be given that could make his powers suddenly explode.
Even that Peak Sun Realm Artifact that he bought earlier was impossible.
If he were to use that Peak Sun Realm Artifact, he wouldn’t be able to draw out all of its power with his current cultivation, so it was impossible for him to defeat Lin Hong with it.
Seeing this smile actually made Lin Hong nervous and he couldn’t help becoming anxious.
With this affecting him, he decided to not care about his pride and made the first move!
“Charge!”
With a single order from him, his three pets suddenly lined up and created a wall in front of him before charging out at Lin Fan.
As the three of them charged, they were suddenly surrounded by a sort of invisible representation of force.
This was the force laws of these three pets that had been combined into a single attack that was targeting Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan saw this, he didn’t dodge out of the way at all. He just stood there staring at the three of them charging at him with a disinterested look as if this didn’t bother him at all.
When everyone saw this, they couldn’t help being shocked.
As the three pets came closer and closer to Lin Fan, they couldn’t help feeling worried.
That was because Lin Fan didn’t put up any guard at all.
If he were to get hit by these three pets charging at him at the same time without guarding, it would be an understatement to say that he would be seriously injured. The more likely outcome would be that he would be killed by the combined force of these three pets.
That was what made them worry.
This was supposed to be a duel, but it was a duel with limits.
Members of the Lin Astral Family weren’t allowed to seriously hurt each other, let alone kill each other. It was the taboo of the family and anyone that broke the taboo would suffer serious punishments.
Could it be that this was Lin Fan’s plan all along?
Was he really that crazy that he would play with his life like this?
As Lin Hong thought about all of the things that he had done before, he couldn’t help feeling more and more scared.
That was right!
Lin Fan was just this crazy!
Lin Hong knew that he had to do something or else this would end badly for him!
So Lin Hong shouted, “Stop!”
But it was already too late for that. Even if his pets wanted to stop, it would be impossible for them to stop before they hit Lin Fan.
Everyone could only watch as the three pets came closer and closer to Lin Fan, until the moment that they were about to hit him…
That was when Lin Fan suddenly disappeared from where he was standing.
When he reappeared again, he was standing behind the three pets that had been charging at him.
The three pets that had lost their target couldn’t stop themselves in time and the only thing that they could do was keep charging forward. So they landed on the ground where Lin Fan had been standing previously, but they couldn’t shatter the arena ground at all.
This arena was specially made by the Lin Astral Family, so it was made of a very strong material that even Sun Realm Experts would find hard to destroy, so there was no need to mention these juniors being able to break this arena.
After the attack missed, everyone was in a daze since they couldn’t understand what had just happened.
Not a single one of them had been able to keep up with Lin Fan’s movement, so they had no idea how he had dodged Lin Hong’s attack just now.
But as juniors of the Lin Astral Family, they weren’t that useless either.
After they recovered from their shock, they used their spiritual senses to check the area.
It didn’t take them long to recognize what Lin Fan had done.
“Spatial laws…”
Lin Hong muttered as he recognized the faint traces of spatial law energy that was left in the air.
Lin Fan just revealed a smile without saying anything.
But after saying this, Lin Hong was even more confused.
After all, he had his understanding of spatial laws as a member of the Lin Astral Family. He knew that it was impossible for spatial laws to be used that quickly at Lin Fan’s level of cultivation.
Lin Fan was using spatial laws at the same level as Sun Realm Experts.
Did he have a special item that he used or…?
No, that was impossible.
Lin Hong shook the other possibility out of his mind since he refused to believe that this was true.
So he deemed it was Lin Fan using a special item to avoid his attack.
Yes, it had to be a special item.
He had even been given a dragon vein crystal, so it wasn’t impossible for Lin Fan to be given a special spatial law item that he could use.
But an item was an item in the end and it was impossible for Lin Fan to keep using it.
So all he had to do was keep pressing the attack and using his endless stream of attacks to suppress Lin Fan. As long as he consumed all the energy in Lin Fan’s artifact, then there would be no way for Lin Fan to dodge his attacks.
Once Lin Fan’s artifact ran out of life energy, it would be over.
That was what Lin Hong firmly believed because if he didn’t believe it, it would be the end.
It was just too bad that he was wrong…
After thinking this through, Lin Hong shouted, “Split and charge!”
His three pets immediately split off in different directions and started charging at Lin Fan from different directions.
Lin Fan used the same spatial laws to disappear, causing the three pets to slam into each other, but that didn’t matter to them. Even after slamming into each other, they didn’t seem to feel a thing.
That just went to show how well trained these three pets were.
Lin Hong didn’t mind that he missed and shouted, “Keep charging!”
The three pets followed his orders and immediately split up to keep charging, but this time they charged one by one.
Lin Hong was holding back his power just in case to avoid hurting Lin Fan because he knew that if an accident happened, he wouldn’t be able to avoid the consequences.
But Lin Fan easily dodged all of these attacks.
After dodging for a while, Lin Fan suddenly revealed a smile and said, “It’s time to end this game.”
