Chapter 308: Chapter 304: Thousand Hands Phantom Fist

In the eyes of these four, Lin Hao was like a lamb to the slaughter.

The leader’s eyes were crimson, filled with a bloodthirsty light.

As for the other three, a smile surfaced in their eyes.

Lin Hao, who had thrown the world into turmoil, was about to be slain by them. Their names would surely become known throughout the empire.

Being at the center of the empire’s power, their craving for fame and fortune was beyond what an ordinary person could imagine.

The smiles in the three men’s eyes widened, and even their power began to surge.

But at that very moment, their pupils abruptly constricted.

They saw another Lin Hao!

In the midst of the encirclement, Lin Hao’s body split into two. One of the figures charged toward the leader.

It was incredibly fast, meeting the man’s palm in an instant.

At the same time, the other figure rushed toward the three men.

BOOM!

In a single rush, one of them was sent flying. He shot out like a cannonball and vanished from sight in the blink of an eye.

Lin Hao’s speed was just too fast.

By the time the other two came to their senses, Lin Hao’s hand struck again.

This time, Lin Hao threw a punch, aiming for both of them at once.

Hmph!

The two men’s faces darkened as they snorted coldly in unison.

They activated their Bloodline Power. With their cultivation at the Eighth Layer of Elemental Realm, for Lin Hao to foolishly attempt to fight one against two was simply suicidal!

The two did not retreat, striking out simultaneously with palms wreathed in orange light.

THUD! THUD!

Four fists slammed together, and a deafening explosion ripped through the air.

Lin Hao stood as unshakable as a mountain, while the two men were sent flying backward, blood scattering through the air.

With a flicker of his body, Lin Hao closed the distance.

At the same time, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from the leader’s body, and his combat strength skyrocketed instantly.

He had seen what was happening over here.

There was no time to wonder why there were two Lin Haos; he had to deal with one of them.

Otherwise, if Lin Hao succeeded, he would have no chance of winning against two of them.

A Martial Artist at the Eighth Layer of Elemental Realm who also possessed a special bloodline—when he unleashed his Bloodline Power, his might was boundless!

BOOM!

A palm as large as a winnowing basket pressed down. The other Lin Hao met it head-on but was overpowered, slammed directly into the ground, and then its figure vanished.

That was one of Lin Hao’s Primordial Bodies.

Meanwhile, the Lin Hao rushing toward the two men faltered, a metallic, sweet taste rising in his throat.

With his Primordial Body injured, his main body had also sustained damage.

Lin Hao hadn’t expected the leader to be so powerful, capable of dispatching his Primordial Body in such a short time.

At this moment, an overwhelming pressure assaulted Lin Hao from behind.

He didn’t need to think to know it was the leader making his move.

Lin Hao lunged forward, simultaneously sending out another Primordial Body to block the leader.

From the moment Lin Hao’s Primordial Body attacked, to his main body charging the three men, sending one flying before clashing with the other two, then the Primordial Body being destroyed, and the leader coming to the rescue...

All of this, though long to describe, happened in the blink of an eye.

Now, Lin Hao shot forward, his body like a phantom, arriving as if by teleportation.

As he threw his punch, the two men who had been sent flying had just barely regained their footing.

RUMBLE!

A tremendous noise echoed out. A deep crater appeared where the two men had been standing, but they were already gone.

Lin Hao had attacked with his full strength, his morale at its peak. How could the two possibly withstand it? Only a gory mess remained in the deep crater!

Pfft!

Lin Hao had succeeded, but he suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

His Primordial Body had been destroyed again.

In the Celestial Break Mountain Range, Lin Hao had used his Primordial Body to kill a Soul Gathering Realm expert who had lost an arm. Logically, this Martial Artist at the Eighth Layer of Elemental Realm shouldn’t have been a match for it, even using Bloodline Power.

But that was not the case.

That time, Lin Hao had been hiding, his mind, essence, and spirit highly focused. He controlled the Primordial Body with his main self, which was equivalent to him fighting in person. Moreover, with a mere thought, the Primordial Body could appear anywhere. This speed surpassed even that of the Heaven-Stepping Step, which he had yet to fully master.

Caught by surprise, that Soul Gathering Realm expert could only meet a tragic end.

This time was different, however. The other two Martial Artists were using their Bloodline Power, and the slightest carelessness could lead to his death. How could Lin Hao have any spare energy to control the Primordial Body? 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

With his current cultivation level being insufficient, the attack power of a Primordial Body not being directly controlled by his mind was naturally greatly reduced.

"I didn’t expect you to have mastered such a Secret Skill. Nevertheless, you will not escape death today," the leader said coldly upon seeing Lin Hao injured.

As a member of one of the four great families, he was naturally worldly and recognized that Lin Hao had cultivated a Secret Skill.

But it was precisely because of this Secret Skill that Lin Hao’s main body was now injured. This was the perfect opportunity to kill him.

The young man’s hands had both turned golden. He stared at Lin Hao, killing intent flaring in his eyes.

Lin Hao’s expression turned somewhat grave.

This young man was using his Bloodline Power, and it made even him feel a sense of pressure—a pure suppression from the bloodline itself.

This made Lin Hao sigh internally.

’In fact, no one has guessed wrong. My bloodline is indeed only a Spirit Body right now.’

’The reason I can ignore bloodline suppression is naturally because of the emperor-grade skill.’

’A few months ago, I forged a bloodline for Yi Mingcheng, and afterward, my own bloodline actually began to transform toward a Primordial Physique. That made me quite happy.’

’This was because the change was caused by the True Qi I infused into him.’

’At that time, I held a hope that after cultivating the Godslaying Celestial Slash Skill to its peak, I could once again manifest the bloodline of my past!’

’And indeed, back in the Heaven-Stepping Sect’s Demon Suppression Cave, during the most critical moment of the battle against that Evil Demon, after I cultivated this emperor-grade skill to its limit, my essence blood did undergo a very strange transformation.’

’But in the end, my essence blood just turned red.’

’They say one must break the cocoon to become a butterfly, to be reborn from destruction. I have a strong feeling that my bloodline can be regenerated.’

’I just don’t know how long I’ll have to wait.’

’After forging my True Self Divine Soul, I didn’t care much about my bloodline anymore. But now, without using the emperor-grade skill, a rather extraordinary combat physique is able to exert pressure on me.’ A shadow fell over Lin Hao’s heart.

’Sooner or later, I’ll have to face Lin Wu, who possesses the Harmony Dominator Body. Without Bloodline Power, I will be Innately suppressed.’

’No! Even without Bloodline Power, I can still reach the pinnacle of the martial path!’ Lin Hao suddenly thought of Cang Yan. ’He only has a Spirit Body, but when that blood lion appeared last night, who dared to challenge its edge?!’

A heroic spirit surged within Lin Hao.

The young man across from him had been pleased to see Lin Hao looking somewhat dejected. But in just an instant, Lin Hao’s aura changed. The young man’s expression shifted, and he immediately attacked.

A large golden hand, as big as a winnowing basket, shot out, clawing at Lin Hao.

Lin Hao shifted sideways. The claw’s momentum didn’t decrease, and it shattered a huge boulder behind him!

It is impolite not to reciprocate. As Lin Hao moved sideways, he threw a punch.

Starting from the Blood Coagulation Realm Fourth Layer, one could perform Bone Strengthening. Now at the Seventh Layer of Elemental Control Realm, a casual movement could cause his sinews and bones to expand explosively.

BOOM!

Lin Hao’s fist, now as large as a millstone, was also dodged by the young man. The punch’s momentum didn’t slow, hitting a boulder weighing several thousand jin behind the young man. With a massive bang, the boulder was pulverized into dust!

The young man’s eyes narrowed, a flash of astonishment in them.

’This Lin Hao’s strength is terrifying. Compared to me, he’s actually stronger, not weaker.’

The power of a cultivator at the Seventh Layer of Elemental Control Realm was actually more terrifying than his own at the Eighth Layer of Elemental Realm, even with his bloodline activated. This made the young man’s expression extremely grave, and his desire to kill Lin Hao grew even stronger.

"Thousand Hands Phantom Fist!"

The young man coldly spat out four words. His arms suddenly expanded, and then, true to the name of the technique, it was as if a thousand fists were punching at once, filling the sky with their afterimages.

Lin Hao’s figure retreated explosively.

RUMBLE!

The area was drowned in heaven-shaking sonic booms.

Giant trees and boulders shattered one after another. A fierce wind raged at the scene, lifting the fallen leaves from the ground and turning them to dust that scattered in the air. The wild grass on the ground was flattened, then swept up by the gales and torn to shreds.

Lin Hao was enveloped, forced to retreat again and again.

The young man’s barrage of fists was relentless, following him like a shadow. Everything in its path crumbled and ceased to exist.

Throughout this process, Lin Hao was retreating, but his eyes were incredibly bright, his pupils constantly moving.

The young man’s fists were reflected in Lin Hao’s eyes.

Finally, a brilliant light, too bright to look at directly, erupted from Lin Hao’s eyes. He then stopped his retreat and abruptly threw a punch!

Lin Hao’s arms expanded simultaneously, and then two fists became four, four became eight...

In just an instant, the sky was filled with fist-shadows.

The Thousand Hands Phantom Fist was perfectly executed by Lin Hao!

Then, Lin Hao’s fists collided with the young man’s with unerring accuracy.

Diamond cut diamond!

RUMBLE!

A dense series of earth-shaking, heaven-shattering explosions rang out.

Centered on the point where their fists met, terrifying waves of energy continuously spread outward, creating a scene of boundless horror.

Meanwhile, several li away, six people stared at the two clashing figures, their eyes filled with utter shock.

They were, of course, the six from the Lin family.

The six of them had arrived a while ago. At that time, Lin Hao was being forced back repeatedly by the Hu family youth’s Thousand Hands Phantom Fist, unable to even parry.

They had stopped in their tracks with the attitude of watching a good show.

But then, Lin Hao used the exact same fist technique, leaving all six of them stunned.

This Thousand Hands Phantom Fist was a Profound-level Top Grade martial skill. Moreover, it was an exclusive skill of the Hu family, its power boundless. Once unleashed, it could be used to kill those at a higher cultivation level. No one outside the Hu family knew it.

And now, this exclusive Hu family martial skill had been perfectly replicated by Lin Hao. How could they not be astonished?!

"This... is terrifying! If not for the different face, I would have thought it was Young Master Wu fighting!" one of them said, trembling in shock.

"I thought only Young Master Wu had the ability to instantly replicate martial skills. I never imagined he could do it too!" another youth spoke up.

"Heavens, look! The Hu family’s young master is actually retreating! His fists are golden, he’s clearly using his Bloodline Power, but even so, he’s still no match for Lin Hao! It’s too terrifying!" a third youth cried out in alarm, pointing at the battlefield.

The others saw this situation as well.

"Brother Zhan, what should we do?" The fourth person looked toward the mountain-like Lin Zhan, a flicker of fear in his eyes.

Lin Hao’s combat strength had exceeded his imagination, making him want to retreat.

Lin Zhan looked at the five people around him and saw the same fleeting fear in all their eyes.

Lin Zhan fell silent. The others stared at him eagerly, waiting for him to make a decision.
