Translator: 549690339
Boom!!!
With a loud bang, the orb of light suspended above exploded abruptly. Following this, a figure descended from the sky and landed firmly on the back of a Giant Demon.
This person, it was none other than Fang Lin!
Compared to the miserable and near death state prior, Fang Lin was completely rejuvenated now. Not only had he refined a drop of Immortal Essence Blood, gaining the Heritage of the Giant Demon breaking peak, but his injuries had also completely recovered. His own level of cultivation had broken through, reaching the seventh stage of the Earth Element.
In fact, before refining the Immortal Essence Blood, Fang Lin’s cultivation was already on the verge of breaking through. After all, in that last Golden Core refining session, Fang Lin could have directly broken through to the sixth stage of the Earth Element.
But Fang Lin had not done so. Instead, he chose to refine the remaining effects of the Golden Core into his flesh, to temper his physical body.
And now, Fang Lin had obtained this drop of Immortal Essence Blood. As if all the conditions were in place, his cultivation level naturally broke through.
Moreover, he had broken through two small realms directly, arriving at the seventh stage of the Earth Element.
At this moment, Fang Lin, in terms of martial arts realm, was in no way inferior to Gu Hanshan, and could even be considered the number one disciple in Pill Sect.
Even if he were placed in Martial Sect, he would only rank next to the few people like Qing Jianzi.
The breakthrough in realm was secondary. The most important factor was that Fang Lin had obtained the Breaking Peak Heritage.
The benefits that the drop of Immortal Essence Blood brought to Fang Lin were immeasurable. Now, just by throwing a punch without using any Inner Strength, he possessed power comparable to a Two-Times Transformation Demonic Beast.
Moreover, the massive amount of Demon Qi within Fang Lin’s body had entirely fused with the Immortal Essence Blood, becoming a part of Fang Lin’s strength.
Although Fang Lin was still from the Human Clan, he had obtained the power akin to those of a demon, perfectly refining the drop of Immortal Essence Blood.
“The Immortal Essence Blood is indeed powerful, my body has greatly strengthened,” Fang Lin clenched his fist, feeling several times stronger than before refining the Immortal Essence Blood.
At the same time, Fang Lin saw Feng Qianqiu, who was laughing violently below on the ground, along with the extremely eerie mummy.
“Huh?” Fang Lin’s pupils contracted, feeling an ominous aura emanating from that mummy even from a distance.
Especially now that Fang Lin had refined the Immortal Essence Blood, and had obtained the power of a demon, he was exceptionally sensitive to the Demon Saint mummy.
“What a scam! I, Feng Qianqiu, ended up falling into this trap!” Feng Qianqiu seemed insane, as if he had fallen into great despair.
Fang Lin frowned. What has happened to Feng Qianqiu? How did a perfectly sane man go mad?
“Hahaha, kid, you are still alive? But it doesn’t matter. We are all going to die here. Even if you have absorbed the Immortal Essence Blood, you won’t be able to escape this fate.” Feng Qianqiu burst into laughter when he saw Fang Lin. However, his expression was filled with sadness.
Fang Lin remained silent. He didn’t know what Feng Qianqiu had encountered to completely transform a master like him.
Clearly, it must have something to do with that corpse.
However, Fang Lin didn’t pay too much attention to that. His gaze swept the position where Gu Hanshan had just been, yet Gu Hanshan was nowhere to be seen. Upon spotting the trail of blood, Fang Lin’s countenance became slightly solemn.
“Could this guy be in the process of refining the Immortal Essence Blood too?” Fang Lin muttered to himself.
However, the situation with Gu Hanshan seemed to be quite different from his. When he was refining the essence blood, the body of Breaking Peak turned directly into a ball of light to protect him.
While for Gu Hanshan, although the beast’s body remained intact, there was a large crack on the eyebrow bone and some dim light could be seen within.
A cold glint flashed across Fang Lin’s eyes. No matter whether Gu Hanshan was refining the Immortal Essence Blood or not, he was determined to find out. If he was, Fang Lin would certainly take action to stop him. If not, then he would claim the other drop of Immortal Essence Blood for himself.
Fang Lin moved swiftly like an ape monkey and arrived atop the demon beast’s head, taking a glimpse of the large crack on its eyebrow bone.
At this sight, Fang Lin’s complexion changed abruptly.
Whoooosh!
Several chains of flesh shot out, aiming directly at Fang Lin.
Fang Lin reacted swiftly by darting away, simultaneously drawing the giant bone club in his hand.
The flesh chains stretched continuously and pursued Fang Lin relentlessly. They were covered in countless barbs, looking extremely ferocious.
As Fang Lin dodged, he swung the giant bone club adamantly, smashing those flesh chains to pulp.
However, fresh flesh chains kept flying out from the crack in the beast’s eyebrow bone, as if they would never stop no matter how much he fought back.
Cursing under his breath, Fang Lin promptly retreated, eager to leave and no longer wishing to entangle with it.
However, those flesh chains seemed to have targeted Fang Lin and continued to chase after him.
Fang Lin was furious. Since they were so persistent, they couldn’t blame him for being ruthless.
He took out the Boundless Stone and smashed it ferociously towards the beast’s corpse.
Rumble!!!
The power of the Boundless Stone was enormous. The previously mountain-sized demon beast’s corpse collapsed instantly. The chasing flesh chains then withered abruptly.
Fang Lin waved his hand and the Boundless Stone returned to him. He coldly looked at the demon beast’s corpse that had turned into a pile of rubble.
The commotion startled Feng Qianqiu a bit. He took a deep look at Fang Lin, though despair still showed on his face.
Even though the beast’s corpse had collapsed into a pile of rubble, Fang Lin’s gaze was still heavy.
Just now, he saw that Gu Hanshan was entangled in numerous flesh chains inside the crack in the eyebrow bone. Half of his body had already turned into that of a beast’s, the heart was exposed, yet still thumping vigorously.
This eerie scene was not of Gu Hanshan absorbing the Immortal Essence Blood, but rather it seemed like he was undergoing fusion with the beast’s corpse.
Even now, although Fang Lin had shattered the corpse of the beast, Gu Hanshan was still wrapped in clumps of flesh and was unaffected.
Fang Lin squinted his eyes, observing Gu Hanshan who was shrouded in flesh, while tossing the Boundless Stone in his hand as if readying for another throw.
Spuurt!
The clump of flesh that was engulfing Gu Hanshan exploded at once, revealing him completely.
However, Gu Hanshan’s eyes also opened at this moment. They did not reflect the light of a human, but that of a wild beast instead.
Gu Hanshan’s appearance was horrifying. The left half of his body had transformed into a beast’s body, covered in hard scales, and more than a dozen flesh chains attached to his back vibrated vigorously.
At the center of Gu Hanshan’s chest, there was a gaping hole, through which, the beating heart could be seen.
This scene made Fang Lin’s expression extremely unsightly. Gu Hanshan hadn’t refined the Immortal Essence Blood. Instead, he got assimilated by the corpse of the beast.
“Fang Lin!” With gloomy eyes fixated on Fang Lin, Gu Hanshan let out a chilling growl from his lips.
