Chapter 329: Take Your Time, I'll Wait

The light dissipated, and the aura just now startled the crowd of the Profound Sword Pavilion.

“Eh.”

A sound of surprise escaped Lin Fan's lips. This man in the golden robe had actually escaped from his grasp—quite a rarity.

“The five of you have an interesting secret technique, able to instantly shift positions.” Lin Fan smiled faintly, looked up at the void, and developed some interest in this technique.

At that moment, the man in the golden robe's right arm had completely disintegrated, flesh and blood mangled, with copious amounts of blood gushing out, staining heaven and earth.

When the Profound Sect Leader and the supreme elders saw the scene in the void, they were greatly shocked, then looked in disbelief at the man standing there calmly and effortlessly.

So strong!

They had not expected that the man who seemed so unremarkable to them could be this powerful. The man in the golden robe's aura was vast and profound, clearly no ordinary person; even they might not necessarily be his match. Yet now, with just a single palm strike, he had shattered one of the opponent's arms—to them, this was utterly terrifying.

At this moment, the Profound Sect Leader secretly glanced at Xuan Yunxian, and her original thoughts began to waver. If the two truly loved each other, then it might be better to help them fulfill their wishes.

However, if Lin Fan knew what the Profound Sect Leader was thinking, he would definitely spew a mouthful of old blood: “You're overthinking it.”

“Dad, you're too domineering!” At this moment, Liu Lingfeng roared loudly, his effeminate tone sounding especially jarring in the tense atmosphere.

Lin Fan, who had been quite composed, shuddered inwardly upon hearing that “Dad,” and pretended not to have heard it.

“You bastard…” The man in the golden robe in the void roared ferociously, but also looked warily at the terrifyingly powerful man before him.

If it weren't for the special technique the five of them practiced, which allowed them to sense and teleport to one another, his fate would likely have been the same as his right arm—vanishing into thin air.

“Who exactly are you?” The five of them were unknown in the Eastern Spirit Continent, yet they knew it like the back of their hand, but they had never heard of someone this powerful.

Although the five of them had only condensed twelve rule chains, if they joined forces, they could even retreat unscathed from under the hands of a Sacred Sect Leader.

“You're too weak. I don't want to waste words with you.” At this, Lin Fan leaped up and charged into the void.

Lin Fan planned to study them thoroughly, refine them, and with luck, perhaps even extract the technique the five of them practiced.

Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth.

These were the Five Elements.

Lin Fan had perused the sect's classics but had never found any record of this type of technique. The five had somewhat mysterious origins, but to Lin Fan, that didn't matter—no matter their background, he would smash them all to pieces.

The five's expressions changed drastically. They hadn't expected this man to act so swiftly, giving them no breathing room.

Without any hesitation, the five immediately took their positions according to the Five Elements.

“Wood Bones.”

“Metal Sinews.”

“Earth Flesh.”

“Water Blood.”

“Fire Qi.”

“Five Elements Mutually Generative, Fusion.”

At that moment, a surging and violent aura erupted violently from the five.

Twelve rule chains flew out from each person, intertwining with each other, and a light curtain enveloped the five.

“Bastard, today I'll show you what terror really means!” A voice that shook the mind came from within the light curtain.

The Profound Sect Leader and the several supreme elders felt this aura, their minds greatly shaken, and couldn't help but look at the man in the void with some worry.

The aura within the light curtain seemed far too strong to them—so strong that even watching from a distance gave them a sense of palpitation.

Xuan Yunxian now showed a worried expression, also feeling a sense of panic at this aura.

As for the female disciples of the Profound Sword Pavilion, their faces turned pale, as if some terrifying creature was about to emerge from that light curtain.

Lin Fan floated calmly in the void, observing the situation before him, and developed a strong interest in this technique.

“Boom…”

At that moment, the light curtain instantly dissipated, and a five-colored giant appeared before Lin Fan.

“Die…” The five-colored giant roared and threw a punch at Lin Fan.

“Be careful…” Xuan Yunxian panicked at the sight.

Lin Fan paid no heed to this earth-shattering punch; instead, he slightly raised his right hand and slammed it down fiercely.

“Boom…”

A palm strike carrying infinite power pressed down toward the five-colored giant.

"How is that possible..."

The five-colored giant's expression changed drastically at this moment; the might of that palm strike actually made their hearts feel suffocated.

The oncoming fist, under that palm, continuously shattered.

"Ah..."

That five-colored giant hand shattered inch by inch, with no power to resist.

"Please show mercy."

And at that moment, a voice full of majesty and irresistibility came from the deep void.

That voice seemed to contain some kind of rule, making people dare not resist.

"Master, save us..."

Hearing this voice, the five-colored giant suddenly seemed to find a lifeline, screaming in terror.

They hadn't expected that the person before them could be so strong.

The five of them had spared no expense in consuming their origin to form the five-colored giant, yet under this person's palm, they had no room to resist. When had Donglingzhou produced such a formidable figure?

"No one can save you, dammit." Lin Fan roared, taking out the Eternal Axe and slashing horizontally toward the void.

"How dare you..." The figure in the void seemed utterly enraged; a light flashed out from the void.

At a glance, it appeared to be a turtle shell, its patterns dazzling, exuding an ancient aura, and then it shielded the top of the five-colored giant.

"This is the master's Tianxuan Divine Shield; we are saved." The five-colored giant, seeing the object above, was overjoyed.

In their minds, the master was an invincible existence; with the master's protection, everything would surely be fine.

But before they could rejoice for long, they discovered in horror that the Tianxuan Divine Shield, which they regarded as a talisman, was shattering inch by inch under this palm.

"No..."

"Boom..."

The earth shook and the ground sank violently; the five-colored giant vanished in an instant.

"Ding, congratulations on killing Metal, a Great Heavenly Position Great Perfection expert."

"Ding, congratulations on killing Wood, a Great Heavenly Position Great Perfection expert."

"Ding, congratulations on killing Water, a Great Heavenly Position Great Perfection expert."

...

"Ding, congratulations on obtaining the Heaven-grade top-tier technique 'Five Elements'."

"Ding, congratulations on leveling up."

"Ding, Great Heavenly Position Initial Stage."

"Ding, Rule function unlocked."

...

At this moment, Lin Fan was delighted inside; he hadn't expected to be lucky enough to level up and indeed obtain this technique.

Lin Fan paid no attention to how angry the void figure might be; he directly landed where the five had been killed, then collected their corpses into his backpack.

When he had time, he would smelt them and see what he could get.

At this moment, the people of the Xuanjian Sect were utterly dumbfounded.

They hadn't expected that the five, who seemed so terrifying to them, could be killed with a single palm strike.

And when they saw Lin Fan's calm expression, they were thoroughly unsettled—just how strong was this man?

"Hmph..." At this moment, a voice came from the void again.

That voice was filled with infinite rage.

In the void at the horizon, thunder flashed and momentum surged, as if someone was tearing through the void from a distant place to arrive.

Feeling this aura, the joy that had just appeared on the faces of the Xuanjian Sect members vanished completely; the momentum was even stronger and vaster than that of the previous five.

Lin Fan looked up at the void, not taking it to heart at all.

"Don't rush, take your time coming here. I'll wait for you." Lin Fan said.

The people of the Xuanjian Sect were stunned by Lin Fan's arrogant and domineering words.

And when Lin Fan landed on the ground, Liu Lingfeng shouted excitedly.

"Dad, you're really too powerful."

As for Liu Lingfeng, Lin Fan simply ignored him. If he really acknowledged this sissy son, it would definitely leave a stain on his life that would dominate the universe.
