179: Ma'am, at your age you're still playing these tricks?
Four figures appeared, each emitting the terrifying aura of a Peak Martial Emperor!
The leading One-eyed Old Man had the deepest aura. His single eye flickered with a cold light, and he leaned on a skull-headed cane. Within the eye sockets of the skull at the top, ghostly green flames burned.
To his left was a short, stout, bald man with a face full of scars, holding two giant axes as large as door panels, his muscles knotted like rock.
To his right was a seductive woman in a red dress, pink silk threads entwined around her fingertips. Every thread emitted a bizarre aura that could make one's Divine Soul spin.
At the very back was a hunched figure shrouded in a gray robe. Their face was hidden, leaving only a pair of hands as pale as a corpse's visible, clutching a black tome.
Four Peak Martial Emperors!
A lineup like this could sweep through any power in the Central District!
Yet now, they surrounded the entrance to Lin Fan's base, brimming with Killing Intent!
"Lin Fan," the One-eyed Old Man spoke, his voice as raspy as a broken gong. "Someone asked us to bring you a message..."
"The waters of the Holy City are deep. The title of champion cannot protect your life."
"If you know what's good for you, crush your reserve token yourself and scramble back to the East District."
"Otherwise..."
He paused, his skull cane thumping heavily against the ground.
"This time next year will be the anniversary of your death!"
The pressure of a Peak Martial Emperor erupted, crushing down toward Lin Fan like four massive mountains!
The Formation light screen around the base shook violently, emitting an overburdened hum!
Qin Yue and Su Muyu turned pale, backing away repeatedly.
Jingang let out a roar, pushing his Ancient Buddha War Body to its limit to stand before the two women. However, facing the pressure of four Peak Martial Emperors, he could only barely hold on, the veins on his forehead bulging!
Only Lin Fan remained.
He stood in place as if he felt nothing at all.
He even... let out a yawn.
"Finished?" Lin Fan picked at his ear. "The lines are too cliché. Don't you have anything original?"
The One-eyed Old Man froze.
The woman in the red dress behind him gave a charming laugh. "Little brother, you've got quite the nerve~ But big sister likes men with guts the most~ Why don't you come with me? I promise to make you... feel like you're in heaven~"
As she spoke, she lightly flicked the pink silk threads on her fingertips.
A bizarre Divine Soul fluctuation swept toward Lin Fan, as if intending to directly invade his Sea of Consciousness and control his mind!
Charm Law!
At the Peak Martial Emperor level, the Charm Law was enough to make even experts of the same Realm lose themselves momentarily!
However.
Lin Fan merely looked up and glanced at the woman in the red dress.
A current of Chaos flashed in his eyes.
Pfft!
The pink silk threads snapped inch by inch!
The woman in the red dress let out a muffled groan, a trail of blood seeping from the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with horror. "You... how is this possible..."
"Charm Law?" Lin Fan sneered. "Auntie, you're still playing this game at your age? Aren't you ashamed?"
"You!!!" The woman's face flushed with rage. "You dare call me Auntie?!"
"What else?" Lin Fan sized her up. "The crow's feet at the corners of your eyes are deep enough to crush a mosquito, and your makeup is thicker than a city wall. What, you come out here to scare people and don't expect them to say anything?"
"Pfft..." Qin Yue couldn't help but laugh out loud, then quickly covered her mouth.
The woman in the red dress trembled with rage. Just as she was about to lash out, the One-eyed Old Man raised his hand to stop her.
"Lin Fan," the One-eyed Old Man narrowed his single eye. "It seems you've chosen to do things the hard way."
"The hard way?" Lin Fan laughed. "With you four pathetic rejects? You're not even worthy of offering me a drink."
He took a step forward, and the aura of Chaos began to spread.
"But since you're here..."
"Then don't leave."
"I just happen to be lacking some practice targets!"
Lin Fan grinned, revealing his pearly white teeth.
"Peak Martial Emperor punching bags should be... quite durable, right?"
[Ding! Acting extremely arrogant in the face of four Peak Martial Emperors, prestige value +8,000!]
[Current prestige value: 308,000 points!]
"Arrogant!!!"
The bald man was the first to lose his patience. He roared and swung his twin axes!
"Mountain Cleaver... Die for me!!!"
Boom!!!!!!
The two giant axes transformed into two hundred-foot-long axe-shards, tearing through space as they cleaved down toward Lin Fan's head!
Before the axe-shards even arrived, the terrifying Law of Strength had already crushed the ground ten feet deep!
The power of a Peak Martial Emperor erupted with full force!
Facing this mountain-splitting strike, Lin Fan merely shook his head.
"Power is too scattered, the Move is too crude."
"You dare come out and embarrass yourself with this level of skill?"
He raised his right hand and lightly tapped with his index finger.
"Chaos... Origin Finger."
Buzz!
A gray finger-force shot through the air, meeting the two axe-shards!
The finger-force collided with the axe-shards.
There was no explosion.
No impact.
There was only... a melting away, as if snow had met a blazing sun.
The two hundred-foot axe-shards began to crumble, dissipate, and turn into nothingness the moment they touched the finger-force!
After three breaths.
The axe-shards vanished completely.
The finger-force continued unabated, pointing toward the center of the bald man's forehead!
"What?!" The bald man's expression changed drastically as he crossed his axes to block!
Clang...!!!
An ear-piercing metallic ring echoed through the clouds!
The bald man was sent flying along with his axes, crashing heavily into the street a hundred feet away, blasting a crater thirty feet in diameter into the ground!
He struggled to climb up, looking down at the twin axes in his hands...
On each axe blade was a deep finger print!
A Heaven Rank Low Grade battle axe had actually been... dented by a single finger?!
"That's it?" Lin Fan withdrew his finger and blew off non-existent dust. "Peak Martial Emperor? You probably gorged yourself on Medicinal Pills to reach that level, didn't you?"
"You!!!" The bald man was so angry he spat out blood.
"Attack together!" The One-eyed Old Man finally realized something was wrong and shouted sharply, "This boy is strange, don't hold back!"
As his voice fell, the four of them erupted simultaneously!
The One-eyed Old Man swung his skull cane, and countless ghostly green fires transformed into a hundred-foot ghost dragon, pouncing toward Lin Fan with bared claws!
The woman in the red dress flicked her ten fingers, the pink silk threads forming a heavenly net to block all of Lin Fan's paths of retreat!
The hunched figure in the gray robe flipped open the black tome and chanted incantations. Cursed runes appeared out of thin air, swarming toward Lin Fan!
The bald man charged again, his twin axes wreathed in blood-colored flames, their power increasing by another thirty percent!
Four Peak Martial Emperors used their killing Moves at the same time!
The terrifying momentum made the entire street tremble. The protective Formation above the Holy City automatically activated, showering down rays of golden light!
"Now this is more like it." A flash of excitement crossed Lin Fan's eyes.
Instead of retreating, he took a step forward!
Chaos Domain... fully open!
Buzz!!!!!!
The gray Chaos Domain erupted with Lin Fan at its center, instantly covering a thousand-foot radius!
Within the Domain, currents of Chaos flowed, embracing and neutralizing everything!
As the ghost dragon crashed into the Domain, the ghostly green fire began to extinguish, and its body began to crumble!
As the pink silk net entered the Domain, the threads began to snap, and the Charm Law was assimilated by the Chaos!
As the cursed runes drifted into the Domain, they grew dim, and the power of the curse was decomposed by the Chaos!
As the flaming blood-axes cleaved into the Domain, the fire began to dissipate, and their strength was diluted by the Chaos!
Within the Chaos Domain, the power of the four Peak Martial Emperors' killing Moves was reduced to less than ten percent!
"This... what kind of Domain is this?!" The One-eyed Old Man's pupils constricted.
"Chaos Domain," Lin Fan's voice echoed from within. "Specifically for dealing with half-baked Peak Martial Emperors like you."
