Chapter 594: Today's Kindness, Repaid in the Future

"All ancient clan warriors, I, Lin Fan, will forever remember your kindness today. In the future, when I overthrow the ancient clan, I will surely not exterminate you all."

Lin Fan was truly grateful to these ancient clans.

Watching those ancient clan members, with only Supreme Heaven or Azure Heaven cultivation, fearlessly sharing the thunder's power for his sake, only to be reduced to ashes, Lin Fan's heart ached deeply.

What kind of righteousness was needed to achieve this?

Even more, some ancient clan members were not struck dead by the thunder but lost limbs. Such crippled members should have been sent to the rear for proper treatment.

Yet now, even with such severe injuries, they still roared at the Cave Heaven Thunder Tribulation, fighting back until they were burned to ashes.

"You..." The ancient clans, hearing Lin Fan's words, were furious, but now they were powerless.

In the brief moment when the thunder subsided, the ten ancient clan commanders struck fiercely at the Cave Heaven Crystal.

With each strike, Lin Fan felt his blood and qi churn, and his magical power diminish by half.

But with the support of the elixir and the Parasol Tree Divine Tree, Lin Fan could barely hold on.

"All ancient clan warriors, be careful, the thunder is coming again." Lin Fan looked at the void and warned.

For Lin Fan, the fewer ancient clan members died, the better.

Boom!

Another bolt of thunder struck down, and the ten ancient clan commanders quickly counterattacked.

This Cave Heaven Thunder Tribulation contained the power of destruction. Even the current thunder's power could not harm them.

But the power of destruction would accumulate within them, and if it reached a certain thickness, it would instantly explode, destroying everything.

At this moment, the ancient clans screamed in agony as the power of the Cave Heaven Thunder Tribulation struck their bodies, tearing their flesh and sending black smoke billowing.

"Commander, save us!"

"Save us!"

...

The ancient clan soldiers screamed. Their cultivation was not high, and they could not withstand the thunder's power, so they died or were injured.

"Despicable, shameless." The ten ancient clan commanders roared in fury, unable to bear it any longer. "Kill."

Since they could not shatter the Cave Heaven Crystal Wall, they would slay this vile creature.

Seeing the ten ancient clan commanders charging at him, Lin Fan's expression changed drastically. If they fought, he was no match.

But before dodging, how could Lin Fan let these ancient clan brothers suffer? He scattered a handful of elixirs, which exploded within the Cave Heaven, turning into medicinal power that merged into the ancient clan members.

Those severely injured instantly recovered.

Those missing limbs regrew them.

"Ah, we're healed!"

"Haha, I'm not dead, I'm not dead!"

At this moment, some ancient clan members looked at Lin Fan in confusion, wondering what this creature was doing.

But to the ten ancient clan commanders, this was infuriating. The creature was too despicable.

Without any hesitation, Lin Fan entered stealth mode and wandered freely within the Cave Heaven.

"Thunder is coming, be careful!" Lin Fan saw the void change and shouted loudly.

Some ancient clan soldiers, hearing this, changed expression and desperately resisted.

"Despicable creature, if I catch you, I'll tear you to pieces!" The ancient clan commanders were utterly enraged.

They had never seen such a despicable creature.

"Ding, congratulations, 'Eternal Divine Body' experience increased by 1300."

Now, these small bolts of thunder could not harm Lin Fan at all, but for some ancient clan members, it was not so fortunate.

Those unlucky were directly reduced to ashes; the lucky were severely injured.

"Ah!"

After every thunderclap, waves of agonized screams followed—the cries of the Ancient Clan, terrified and tormented in body and soul by the power of the thunder.

Lin Fan looked at the vast horde of the Ancient Clan and silently encouraged himself, determined to hold out until the end.

He had to save these Ancient Clan members; he couldn't let them die so quickly. Otherwise, when the thunder grew stronger and stronger, he himself would never be able to withstand it.

“Warriors of the Ancient Clan, do not panic. I am here to save you.”

Lin Fan lacked nothing at the moment except healing sacred pills, so he tossed out a large handful of them, healing the Ancient Clan members.

“Haha, I'm recovered!”

“I'm not dead! I'm not dead again, haha…”

The Ancient Clan soldiers roared wildly. At this moment, they felt as if possessed by war gods, their spirits soaring, as though they had forgotten that all this was caused by a being from a great myriad race.

“Who exactly are you?” the Ancient Clan commanders roared.

“I am the Human Emperor, Lin Fan. You don't need to thank me. Healing the wounded and rescuing the dying is the duty of our kind. Let us withstand the thunder tribulation together. After it passes, we can discuss matters then.” Lin Fan flicked his sleeve, then his expression changed drastically.

“Watch out! More lightning is coming.”

…

When the Ancient Clan commanders heard this, they nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood. But at this moment, though they wished to kill this fellow,

he was too treacherous. In an instant, he vanished without a trace, and when he reappeared, he was far away in the distance.

Those Ancient Clan soldiers who were half-dead from the thunder strikes, as the thunder continued to fall, also began to roar.

“Stop healing us! We can't take it anymore! We want to die!”

The Ancient Clan soldiers truly couldn't bear it. At first, every time they were severely injured and then recovered, they were overjoyed. But the waves of pain, like heavy mountains, pressed down on them, making them unbearable.

Especially as the thunder grew stronger, it nearly drove them to collapse.

At this moment, in the eyes of the Ancient Clan, Lin Fan had become like a demon.

He wouldn't even let them die.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand thunderbolts had passed.

Lin Fan's physical strength had also been enhanced, successfully reaching the Divine Heaven Tier, third level, the Cavern Realm.

The crystalline walls of his cavern no longer required Lin Fan to maintain them with his mana.

Now, the cavern walls were immensely thick, so much so that even the combined attacks of the ten Ancient Clan leaders could not inflict any damage.

In Lin Fan's view, his cavern was continuously evolving amidst these lightning tribulations. If he could survive all the tribulations, just how powerful would his cavern become?

This was something Lin Fan dared not imagine.

Even someone like the Mighty Sovereign might not necessarily be able to shatter his cavern.

Everything was progressing in a favorable direction.

But just then, a scene that gave Lin Fan a headache occurred.

"You bastard, daring to use our Ancient Clan as targets! Today, I will blow up your cavern!" roared an Ancient Clan leader, his fierce eyes blazing with boundless fury.

"What is he trying to do?" Lin Fan wondered in confusion, but what happened next filled him with great concern.

"If I can't break through your cavern, then I'll self-destruct my own cavern and shatter yours!" The Ancient Clan leader was now enraged.

He was now prepared to sacrifice his own life to completely thwart Lin Fan's scheme.

In an instant, a wave of destructive aura suddenly emanated from the Ancient Clan leader.

"Don't get worked up! Let's talk this out!" Lin Fan exclaimed. If this Ancient Clan leader self-destructed his cavern, even if it might not blast open Lin Fan's cavern, the other Ancient Clan members inside would certainly suffer heavy casualties.

Now, the power of the thunderbolts was growing stronger. If the number of people sharing the burden decreased further, then danger would surely loom.

No, he had to stop this.

"Detestable creature! Even if I die, I will make you fail! If you grow up, the Ancient Clan will be in danger!" the Ancient Clan leader roared.

He had realized that if things continued like this, once this creature's cavern survived the lightning tribulation, his future achievements would be infinitely terrifying.

To nip Lin Fan in the bud, he had no choice but to do this.

"For the Ancient Clan..." The Ancient Clan leader showed no trace of fear, roaring madly.

"Damn it, how could I let you succeed?" Lin Fan was furious. This guy wasn't cooperating with him at all.
