Chapter 99

Not only was Fan Chong afraid, but everyone else was as well.

A black-robed figure had already slowed them down, and if another one came, they would likely be directly engulfed by the beast horde.

"I'll hold him off!" Feng Bufan roared, drawing his sword and charging forward.

Thunder Slash!

A brilliant blade of light, three zhang long, whistled as it cleaved toward the black-robed figure in the air.

"Haha, come on over!" You Shier laughed loudly, directly engaging Feng Bufan, and the two began a fierce battle.

On the side, Fan Chong was also pulled into the fray, fighting another black-robed figure.

"Frost Palm!"

A palm strike unleashed endless cold, as if winter had arrived, and the air froze, slowing down the surrounding beasts.

"Ice attribute!" Lin Xuan's eyes lit up. He should have had Fan Chong act earlier; this would definitely slow down the beast horde.

"Let's push through quickly!" Lin Xuan took the lead, waving his palms to clear the way.

In the rear, the remaining black-robed figures couldn't sit still. Seeing that Lin Xuan and the others were about to escape, they also joined the fight.

Soon, two of them caught up with Lin Xuan and the others. Hu Man engaged one black-robed figure, while the last one was taken on by Lin Xuan.

"Huang Wei, keep pushing forward!" Lin Xuan handed the group over to the last young man.

"Kill them quickly, don't let them escape!" the black-robed figure fighting Hu Man said.

"Don't worry, he's just a worthless Eighth Rank Condensation Pulse cultivator!" the black-robed figure sized up Lin Xuan, grinning evilly, "Boy, I'm You Shisi. Dying by my hand is your honor!"

With that, a black mist rose from his palm, constantly changing shape.

"Die!" You Shisi struck with both palms, his black robe billowing, and the black mist surged toward Lin Xuan.

"Vanish!" Lin Xuan drew his large sword and thrust it forward, the tip touching the black mist.

"Explode!" In the next moment, a golden arc appeared, forming an electric snake in the air, rushing into the black mist.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Under Lin Xuan's control, the golden electric snake continuously exploded, dispersing the entire black mist.

"Ah!" You Shisi was caught off guard and suffered a significant blow. First, he underestimated Lin Xuan's weak cultivation and didn't use his full strength. Second, Lin Xuan's golden arcs seemed to have a certain restraining effect on the black mist.

"Boy, you dare to destroy my Ghostly Mist, I'll tear you apart!" You Shisi was enraged, emitting a sharp cry.

The black mist, which had been dispersed, rolled in the air and gathered around him, forming two fierce ghost heads that attached to his arms.

"Ghostly Wolf Fist!"

Black fist shadows flickered as You Shisi charged forward, bombarding Lin Xuan with a series of punches. Each punch produced a dull sound, and the two fierce ghost heads continuously extended to bite.

"Phantom Lightning Step!"

Lin Xuan left a trail of golden afterimages, his body constantly moving, and his long sword rapidly thrusting.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Golden arcs attached to the sword, each time dispersing the ghostly mist.

"Damn, this boy has a rare lightning attribute, which can exactly counter me!" You Shisi shouted in frustration.

"Thunder God's Wrath!"

"Lightning Slash!"

Lin Xuan suddenly closed in, releasing a large amount of lightning around the black-robed figure, gradually eroding his defenses. Then, a sword beam flashed, slicing toward his arm.

It was as if a golden lightning bolt streaked through the air, carrying a terrifying energy.

"Ah!" You Shisi screamed, his arm flying off.

"You Shisi!" The black-robed figure fighting Hu Man was enraged, wanting to come to his aid but was tightly held back by Hu Man.

"Boy, I'll make you die!" You Shisi's face was fierce as he absorbed all the black mist.

He let out a painful cry, his body continuously expanding, and finally, he grew to two zhang tall, transforming into a monstrous creature. His severed arm was replaced by black mist.

After the transformation, You Shisi's strength surged, each punch capable of tearing through the void.

Boom! A black palm struck down, the palm wind fierce.

Lin Xuan used the Phantom Lightning Step, his body disappearing from the spot.

"Wind and Lightning Slash!"

In the next moment, he appeared behind You Shisi, the sword beam shooting skyward.

This was the first time Lin Xuan combined wind and lightning, the blue and gold energies intertwining and rapidly slashing, creating a wind and lightning force in the air.

Pfft!

One sword, and You Shisi was dead.

"Impossible!" The black-robed figure fighting Hu Man screamed. Although You Shisi was the weakest among them, he shouldn't have been killed by an Eighth Rank Condensation Pulse cultivator.

"Lin Xuan, quickly go help Feng Bufan!" Hu Man waved her jade fan, forming a series of hurricanes.

Lin Xuan nodded, seeing that Hu Man was temporarily not in danger. He moved forward, heading toward the rear.

Although Feng Bufan was also a Ninth Rank Condensation Pulse cultivator, he was weaker than Hu Man and the others, and was being pushed back by You Shier, about to be injured.

"Swift Wind Triple Stab!"

Like sharp spears, the air was split in two, and Lin Xuan's sword pierced You Shier's back.

Ghostly Mist Armor!

You Shier was wary, and the black mist quickly formed a ghostly face armor in front of him.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sword collided with it, being deflected by the force, and Feng Bufan took the opportunity to escape.

"Hmph, useless, you can't break through my defense!" You Shier laughed.

"Is that so?" Lin Xuan's lips curled, and golden arcs rapidly emerged from his body, instantly creating a fist-sized hole in the ghostly face armor.

"What! Lightning attribute!" You Shier was shocked. They, with their ghostly aura, were most afraid of lightning, which was their nemesis.

"Quickly retreat!" You Shier transformed into black mist to escape.

A blue and gold sword energy streaked through, piercing into the black mist, continuously stirring it, and soon You Shier let out a scream.

"Boy, you can injure me, but you can't kill me! And I only need one strike to rip out your heart!"

A black mist-covered hand quickly extended, the fingers tipped with black nails over half a foot long, glowing with a greenish light.

Lin Xuan activated the sword intent within him, instantly becoming incredibly sharp and filled with a killing aura.

Pfft! The entire black mist was cut in half, red blood flowing, staining the ground.

The entire process was very quick, from Lin Xuan saving Feng Bufan to killing You Shier, it only took a few breaths.

Feng Bufan stood there, his mouth twitching. He could only passively defend against the black-robed figure, while Lin Xuan dispatched the enemy like cutting vegetables.

"Is he really just an Eighth Rank Condensation Pulse cultivator?" Feng Bufan was shaken, feeling that Lin Xuan was no worse than a true Spirit Sea Realm cultivator.

On the other side, Fan Chong was gritting his teeth, fighting the black-robed figure. Although he wasn't as狼狈 as Feng Bufan, he could only barely defend himself.

Seeing Lin Xuan easily kill a black-robed figure, his eyelids twitched, almost causing his spiritual energy to flow improperly.

How could this be? He had always looked down on Lin Xuan because he was stronger, but the reality was that the enemy he couldn't defeat, Lin Xuan could easily kill.

"It must be due to his cultivation technique!" Fan Chong could only find a reason to comfort himself. His lightning attribute could counter these black-robed figures, so he could easily kill them.

After dealing with the black-robed figure, he would find an opportunity to teach him a lesson! Fan Chong was unhappy.

Lin Xuan, after killing
