Chapter 661: Chapter 661: Step by Step Difficulties
This fissure was the most severe injury on Fang Lin’s body, caused by the overwhelming killing intent of this place.
At this time, this gap not only does not heal, but also shows signs of expanding.
“Ah, your back is going to split apart,” Wang Erdan exclaimed.
Fang Lin glared at him, but he also clenched his teeth. He was very aware of his situation. The transformation was not yet fully completed, but he had forcibly attacked, first exchanging blows with Crown Prince Zhou Yishui, and then trying to trap the masked man, which had interfered with the transformation, causing this fissure to persist.
If you were standing behind Fang Lin now, you could see his spine exposed, which was extremely terrifying.
Without any hesitation, Fang Lin immediately put away the ancient spear, causing the killing intent gathered here to disperse and refill all parts of the ancient battlefield.
Then, Fang Lin took out several millennia-old medicinal herbs. Without a moment’s hesitation, he opened his mouth and began to bite wildly.@@novelbin@@
As if swallowing whole dates, all of the millennium-old herbs went down, and the vast medicinal power quickly spread inside his body, gathering on his back, to begin repairing the deep bone-exposing fissure.
The millennium-old herbs were consumed for good reason. Though far from the potency of Sacred Medicine, eating several at once delivered immediate effects.
The fissure on Fang Lin’s back began to heal at a rate visible to the naked eye. Fang Lin promptly sat down, crossing his legs, completing the final step of physical transformation.
The reason why he didn’t gain much advantage in the preceding clash with Crown Prince Zhou Yishui was because Fang Lin’s physically transformation was not completely done, and the existence of the back fissure meant that Fang Lin couldn’t exert his full physical strength.
But once his physical transformation was complete, the Crown Prince wouldn’t be able to retreat so easily – he’d definitely have to taste some bitterness.
After all, physically speaking, Fang Lin had surpassed Zhou Yishui, exceeding any heavenly origin martial artist.
Relying on his physical strength alone, coupled with Fang Lin possessing the foundation of Earth Element Tenfold, would essentially make up for the gap in cultivation between him and Zhou Yishui.
Fang Lin was taking the last step in the physical transformation, while Mei Yinxue and the others, after adjusting to the surrounding killing intent, delved a bit deeper.
However, compared to Fang Lin’s earlier mad move of gathering all the killing intent around his body, their exercise seemed somewhat insignificant.
They were extremely frustrated, but they had no choice. The reason why Fang Lin had dared to do so was because of the accumulated power of the Sacred Medicine in his body along with the supplementary Pills, which enabled him to withstand the killing intent.
If Mei Yinxue and the others acted as crazily as Fang Lin, they wouldn’t be able to withstand it at all. In an instant, they would be torn apart by the killing intent.
Even if they had the same conditions as Fang Lin and consumed the Sacred Medicine, would they have the courage to do something so daring?
Perhaps some would, and some wouldn’t. After all, this sort of action and self-destruction were separated by a thin line; success would receive a reward as great as the heavens, while failure would result in an extremely miserable death.
For Fang Lin, the killing intent in this ancient battlefield no longer affected him, but for others, it could still be a great form of exercise.
Take Dugu Nian for example.
At this moment, Dugu Nian also took a pill, enabling herself to quickly adjust to the killing intent.
After adjusting to the killing intent, Dugu Nian stood up and cautiously took a few steps forward.
When she felt she had reached her limit again, she sat back down, cross-legged, to continue adjusting to the killing intent.
Nobody expected that Dugu Nian—whom not many initially held high hopes for—had pulled ahead from the others and gradually ventured deeper into this ancient battlefield.
Although there was a significant distance between her and Fang Lin, it was surprising that Dugu Nian could arrive at this stage with her level of cultivation.
Even though Fang Lin was in the final transformation, he still kept a watchful eye on Dugu Nian and seeing this young girl struggling in pain while moving forward, he couldn’t help feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
Of course, he also hoped that Dugu Nian could become stronger. In such a world, women are inherently weak. Without sufficient strength, even those born into great families couldn’t control their own destiny.
Dugu Nian was shaking. She had always been weak physically and experiencing the killing intent’s exercise at this moment was more painful for her than for others.
If it were the Dugu Nian from before, she might have given up already. But right now, even with this excruciating pain, she gritted her teeth and persevered.
There was no other reason—she just wanted to become stronger.
Perhaps having seen Fang Lin’s strength, Dugu Nian didn’t want to fall too far behind him. Therefore, she urgently needed to improve herself.
But people are ultimately different from one another, especially in martial arts. Some are geniuses who shine brightly and stand at the forefront of all others.
Others are not geniuses, and regardless of how hard they try, they can never catch up with the pace of the gifted ones.
Dugu Nian was not a prodigy in martial arts. No matter how strong her will was, there would be a limit.
When she took another step and ventured deeper into the ancient battlefield, she found that it was difficult to move an inch further.
At this moment, there was only a distance of ten steps between her and Fang Lin.
Getting to this state, Dugu Nian had every reason to be proud. Most of the people present couldn’t reach her level.
But for Dugu Nian, she wasn’t satisfied because there was still a gap between her and Fang Lin.
What seemed like ten steps was actually a world of difference. If Fang Lin wanted to move truly, he could easily reach the deepest part of the ancient battlefield.
There were streaks of blood on Dugu Nian’s face, cut open by the killing intent. Although not deep, it was bleeding profusely.
Her body was shaking greatly. She desperately tried to move forward, but she had already reached her limit; even adjusting to the killing intent was beyond her ability now.
In reality, Dugu Nian had already broken through one limit. Given her level of cultivation, she should never have been able to come this far, but her sheer perseverance had previously allowed her to breach one limit.
But now, attempting another breakthrough was impossible.
“Is this as far as I can go?” Dugu Nian bit her lip, drawing blood, her eyes full of unwillingness.
She wanted to take another step forward. Even if it was only one step, it didn’t matter if she couldn’t catch up with Fang Lin. Even just shortening the distance between her and Fang Lin a little bit was good enough.
But her legs felt extremely heavy and her body was in intense pain. The violent killing intent made Dugu Nian feel as though she was on the verge of collapse.
Dugu Nian didn’t want to give up. Even when her vision began to blacken and her mind told her she couldn’t go on, she still didn’t give up. She risked the danger of physical breakdown, striving to take another step forward.
This scene was moving and also caused people to furrow their brows.
“This is bad!” Steward Shen who was behind them suddenly yelled out. He saw blood spurting from Dugu Nian’s body, injured by the killing intent.
What do you think?
