Chapter 530: Felled by a Brick

The four legion commanders had not expected that in the blink of an eye, this human would appear in another direction. They had been watching this strange cauldron, waiting for Lin Fan to emerge, never imagining that the human could evade their eyes.

Just then, the first legion commander, Gu Haitian, shrieked, “Gu Zhantian, you hold off that human; we will suppress this treasure.”

Gu Haitian wanted to take this opportunity to refine the “Heaven and Earth Furnace.” Although the treasure had already been refined by that human, the three of them could act together, using their supreme power to forcibly seize and refine it.

“Fine.” Gu Zhantian nodded in agreement. “A single human who has lost his defensive treasure—I alone am enough to slay him.”

“Hmph, trying to steal my treasure? Dream on.” Lin Fan bellowed, and the Heaven and Earth Furnace shook violently, trying to break through the obstruction and return to his side.

“Seal it.”

The three legion commanders sneered coldly, striking out thousands of palms. Each palm transformed into a thin thread, which densely wove into a giant net, directly enveloping the “Heaven and Earth Furnace.” This small patch of heaven and earth was thus sealed off by the three commanders.

Seeing this, Lin Fan revealed a faint smile.

Finally, they had taken the bait.

But without applying some pressure, it wouldn’t work.

“This treasure can still resist.” The three commanders saw the treasure constantly ramming against the seal; each impact weakened their sealing power by a fraction.

“Refine it now. As for that human, Gu Zhantian, kill him if you can; if not, hold him off. Once we refine this treasure, we will come to assist you.” The first legion commander, Gu Haitian, instantly struck out millions of palms, making the seal even more solid.

“Rest assured. A mere human—I can suppress him with a flip of my hand.” Gu Zhantian stared coldly at Lin Fan, his body standing straight and battle-ready between heaven and earth.

At this moment, Gu Zhantian was like a drawn sword, his aura pressing against the heavens.

This aura was immensely powerful; around his body, the air hummed and vibrated, and sharp rays of light tore through the void.

Then, a red spear appeared in Gu Zhantian’s hand.

“Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear.”

The spear was engraved with mysterious runes and also bore two blazing suns, as if the suns in the sky had been plucked down and refined into the spear.

A mid-grade Dao artifact: the Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear.

The moment the fourth legion commander, Gu Zhantian, grasped the “Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear,” his entire aura seemed to become even more indestructible, like a sword drawn from its sheath.

Tearing the void, invincible in battle, supreme and unrivaled.

“Human, you should feel honored. Never has an ant from the myriad races forced me to use the Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear. Today, this legion commander will use your blood to consecrate my spear.” Gu Zhantian stared coldly at Lin Fan.

The Gu clan truly lived up to its name—they produced Dao artifacts at will, and mid-grade ones at that.

Lin Fan’s only goal now was to suppress Gu Zhantian; otherwise, if the four commanders joined forces, even he would find it troublesome, no matter how strong he was.

And since Gu Zhantian had a mid-grade Dao artifact, the other three commanders naturally had theirs as well.

Lin Fan checked his experience; he didn’t need much more. Killing this one would allow him to level up. At that point, his strength would increase again, giving him his chance.

“Die!” At this moment, Gu Zhantian’s eyes blazed with sharp light. The Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear in his hand spun continuously; the spear tip, indestructible, directly shredded the void. The spear tip, like a long dragon, trembled slightly, stirring up waves of ripples. These ripples grew larger and larger, then densely filled the entire void.

“Heavenly Origin Strike.”

Gu Zhantian’s spear technique was extremely profound. With this one move, he completely sealed off Lin Fan’s escape routes, and the ripples from all directions contained the spear intent of the Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear.

“His power is even greater now. Using the Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear to execute this powerful spear technique makes him stronger than when bare-handed.” Lin Fan’s expression tightened. His Eternal Axe clashed with the Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear, and he felt that his strength might be slightly inferior to Gu Zhantian’s.

“Soaring Sky!”

Lin Fan, without anyone noticing, hid “Soaring Sky” underground. Though he didn’t know if it would work, as long as it could disrupt Gu Zhantian, it would serve its purpose.

“I didn’t expect a mere human to have so many treasures. This axe is extraordinary.” Gu Zhantian’s face showed greed. He twisted his wrist, flicking the spear, and the two blazing suns shot out fiercely, intending to suppress Lin Fan. But just then, a ripple occurred on the ground.

“What is that?” As a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Desolate Heaven realm, Gu Zhantian’s five senses were connected to the heavens; not the slightest movement could escape him, let alone the violent power of Soaring Sky.

“Despicable!”

Gu Zhantian dared not be careless. He violently shook the Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear, knocking the Eternal Axe aside, then flickered and moved away from his original position.

Whoosh!

Soaring Sky burst forth in an instant, but missed its target.

Lin Fan remained unhurried. He was in no rush to kill Gu Zhantian. He pointed a finger, and the void shattered. Meanwhile, in the shadows, Lin Fan’s palm moved slightly, and a ball of white mist quietly merged into the void.

“Hmph, humans are indeed despicable. But I have seen through it. Let’s see what other tricks you have.” Gu Zhantian sneered, took a step forward, merging spear and body into one, connecting with heaven and earth. At the same time, while executing his spear technique, he also employed various other techniques hidden within it.

If Lin Fan dared to receive the attack, it would surely unleash tremendous damage.

At this moment, while exchanging blows with Gu Zhantian, Lin Fan also realized his own shortcomings. He calmed his mind and gradually improved.

“Sky Dome!”

“Annihilation!”

The three forms of Heaven-Opening—though only two forms existed—consumed an astonishing amount of true essence.

“You have some skill, but not enough.” Gu Zhantian’s eyes flashed with divine light. He swept his spear, directly shattering the void completely.

“Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear: Extinction of All Sounds.”

With a furious roar, Gu Zhantian unleashed his killing move. The three commanders, who were frantically refining the Heaven and Earth Furnace, saw Gu Zhantian go for the kill and smiled slightly.

It seemed this human was about to meet his end.

But just then, something unexpected happened.

“What is this?” Gu Zhantian was suddenly disoriented by the mist before him. But just as he was about to disperse it, he suddenly felt something strange inside his body.

“Heh, looks like this works.” Lin Fan chuckled softly, then instantly charged at Gu Zhantian. His left hand was behind his back, and in his palm was a red brick.

“Doomsday Calamity Divine Fist!”

Lin Fan clenched his right fist; his aura roiled. A doomsday calamity deity appeared on his fist, roaring and snarling.

Gu Zhantian didn’t know what that bastard had done to him, but an unknown force was rampaging inside his body, trying to take over his mind.

But how could he let that happen? He used a true method seed to suppress that unknown force, intending to kill the detestable human first.

“Die!” Gu Zhantian roared in fury. The Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear suddenly grew huge, piercing through heaven and earth, charging at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan’s expression did not change; he met the Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear with his physical body.

Bang!

“How is this possible?” Gu Zhantian’s eyes were filled with horror. How could this human’s body be so strong? The Sun-Chasing Soul-Shattering Spear had only pierced a little before being blocked by some force.

Then, Gu Zhantian’s expression suddenly changed. He saw a hint of ill intent on the human’s face.

“Nine-Five Big Red Brick: One Brick Fells You.”

Bang!
