84: Is there any potential in using the King of Wu trial card plus the "He Hua Zi Zai" (a skill/mechanism)?

The gates of the Martial God Tower slowly opened.

A figure stepped slowly out of the tower.

Black clothes, black hair, his posture as straight as a spear.

It was indeed Lin Fan.

But he was completely different from the dying, teetering state he was in when he entered!

At this moment, his Qi and blood surged like dragons and elephants, roaring and galloping. His Peak Martial Ancestor aura was released without reservation, whipping up an invisible storm across the square!

Even more heart-palpitating was the faint golden phantom image of divine elephants galloping beneath his skin. Beneath the feet of each divine elephant was a miniature world being carved out, emitting an ancient and terrifying pressure!

"God Fan... he's out!"

"His injuries... they're all healed?!"

"And his cultivation... Peak Martial Ancestor?! How is this possible?!"

Wang Xiaoming and the others were dumbfounded.

Su Muyu and Qin Yue's pupils also shrank sharply. They could clearly feel that Lin Fan's current aura was more than ten times stronger than before he entered the Martial God Tower!

The gazes of Ancestor Chifen Tian and the other four Martial King Ancestors, which were originally filled with Killing Intent, also slightly narrowed.

"Peak Martial Ancestor?" Ancestor Chifen Tian frowned deeply. "In such a short time, not only have his injuries completely healed, but his cultivation has also advanced greatly... What kind of fortuitous encounter did this brat get inside the tower?!"

Ice Glass's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her chill intensifying. "His Physique... seems to have undergone some kind of evolution. Even I feel a hint of heart-palpitation."

Thunderstorm snorted coldly. "So what if he's a Peak Martial Ancestor? An ant is still an ant!"

Before his voice had even faded.

Ancestor Chifen Tian had already taken a step forward. His terrifying Peak Martial King pressure crushed toward Lin Fan like a tsunami!

"Little mongrel! Hand over the Martial God Legacy! This Emperor can leave you an intact corpse!"

Everywhere the pressure passed, the ground of the square cracked inch by inch. Many Martial Artists with weaker cultivation were directly crushed to the point of spitting blood and fainting!

But Lin Fan.

Facing this pressure that would make even an Early-stage Martial King turn pale, he only slightly raised his eyelids.

"Hand over the Legacy?"

He grinned, revealing a row of forest-white teeth:

"Sure."

"Exchange it for your life."

[Ding! Remaining unfazed in the face of Martial King pressure and retorting with sarcasm, prestige value +3000!]

[Current prestige value: 87,570 points!]

..."You're looking for death!!!"

Ancestor Chifen Tian was completely enraged. As the Old Ancestor of the Red Dragon Secret Realm and a Peak Martial King expert, when had he ever been so insulted by a junior?!

"Scarlet Dragon Incinerating Heaven Palm!"

He raised his hand and struck out with a palm!

The palm print expanded against the wind, transforming into a hundred-zhang red dragon claw. Burning atop the dragon claw was the Scarlet Dragon True Fire that could incinerate the Void Realm, and it slammed ruthlessly toward Lin Fan!

Although he didn't use his full strength.

It was by no means something an ordinary Peak Martial Ancestor could resist; even an Early-stage Martial King would be left on the brink of death!

"Lin Fan! Watch out!" Su Muyu cried out in alarm.

Qin Yue gripped her short sword, about to rush forward, but was pinned down by the Martial King pressure, unable to move.

Everyone on the square held their breath.

They all wanted to see if this Lin Fan, who had just obtained a Legacy and advanced his cultivation, could actually take a strike from a Peak Martial King.

Or... would he be slapped to death with one palm?

Under everyone's gaze.

Lin Fan moved.

Not only did he not retreat.

Instead.

He took a step forward!

At the same time, his right fist clenched tightly, and pale golden Qi and blood converged frantically on the surface of his fist!

"Nine Styles of the Martial God, First Style!"

"Breaking Myriad Laws!"

He threw a punch!

It was still a plain-looking punch.

But everywhere the fist passed, that Scarlet Dragon True Fire, which could incinerate the Void Realm, actually extinguished and dissipated on its own as if it had met its natural enemy!

Even that hundred-zhang dragon claw, at the moment the fist touched it, had dense cracks appear on its surface!

BOOM!!!

Fist and palm collided!

A terrifying energy storm radiated frantically from the point of impact, peeling away layer after layer of the square's ground, with stone fragments flying out like cannonballs!

Dust filled the air.

Everyone stared intently at the center of the collision.

In the dust, a figure could be seen flying backward, tumbling several times in the air. After landing, he staggered back seven or eight steps before barely managing to stand firm.

It was Lin Fan.

A trace of blood leaked from the corner of his mouth, and the clothes on his chest were torn, revealing slightly reddened skin underneath.

But.

He stood his ground!

Furthermore, he had only suffered light injuries!

Looking at Ancestor Chifen Tian, although he hadn't moved an inch, there was actually an almost invisible bloodstain in the palm of the right hand he had struck out with!

He had been... injured by Lin Fan's punch!

"How is this possible?!"

Ice Glass cried out in disbelief.

Thunderstorm, Shadow Without Trace, and Ape Breaker Mountain's pupils also shrank sharply.

A Peak Martial Ancestor had taken a full-strength palm from a Peak Martial King head-on and not only didn't die but only suffered light injuries, and even managed to slightly injure the opponent in return?!

This simply overturned their understanding!

Ancestor Chifen Tian lowered his head, looking at the tiny bloodstain in his palm, his face so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.

Humiliation!

An utter humiliation!

Being injured by a junior, even if it was just a tiny bit, was a humiliation he had never experienced in his entire life!

"Brat..." Ancestor Chifen Tian's voice was hoarse, the Killing Intent in his eyes almost solidifying. "You indeed surprised this Emperor."

"But today, you still must die!"

The Scarlet Dragon True Fire around him burned frantically, and his aura surged again. He was clearly about to use a true killing move!

But at that moment.

Lin Fan raised his hand, patted the torn clothes on his chest, and brushed off non-existent dust.

Then, he looked up at Ancestor Chifen Tian.

In an incredibly calm yet extremely arrogant tone, he slowly said:

"Peak Martial King?"

He paused and grinned:

"A total mess!"

[Ding! Taking a Peak Martial King's strike with only light injuries and mocking him as 'a total mess', prestige value +8000!]

[Current prestige value: 95,570 points!]

...Dead silence.

On the square, even the sound of breathing was clearly audible.

Everyone, including Su Muyu, Qin Yue, Wang Xiaoming, and even the other four Martial King Ancestors, looked at Lin Fan in a daze.

Crazy... this guy is absolutely crazy!

Taking a Peak Martial King's strike head-on and surviving was already Heaven-Defying enough!

Now he actually dared to publicly mock a Peak Martial King as 'a total mess'?!

This wasn't just being arrogant... this was looking for death!

As expected.

Ancestor Chifen Tian was first stunned, then completely enraged!

"Little mongrel!!! This Emperor will make your Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!!!"

The Scarlet Dragon True Fire around him soared into the sky, and nine red dragon phantoms appeared simultaneously, roaring at the heavens!

He was clearly about to use his bottom-of-the-barrel forbidden secret technique, sparing no cost to completely exterminate Lin Fan!

But at that moment.

Shadow Without Trace, who had been silent, suddenly spoke:

"Chifen Tian, calm down."

His voice was ethereal, as if coming from the shadows:

"This boy is strange; he cannot be judged by common logic."

"The martial intent contained in his punch just now has already touched the level of Laws... This is absolutely not a Realm a Martial Ancestor should have."

Thunderstorm also said in a muffled voice, "Indeed, the Legacy this kid got in the Martial God Tower is probably extraordinary."

Ice Glass's beautiful eyes flickered. "In a one-on-one fight, we could certainly kill him, but if he still has trump cards and manages to escape, the future consequences will be endless."

Ape Breaker Mountain grinned, revealing forest-white fangs. "Let's go together and finish this quickly."

The five Martial King Ancestors instantly reached a consensus.

No longer caring about their status, no longer fighting one-on-one.

They would join forces to surround and kill him!

Although Ancestor Chifen Tian was unwilling, he also knew this was the safest choice.

He stared fixedly at Lin Fan, his voice ice-cold:

"Little mongrel, to be able to force the five of us to join forces, you can be proud of yourself."

"Now, die!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The five Peak Martial Kings erupted simultaneously!

Scarlet Dragon Incinerating Heaven, Miles of Ice, World-Destroying Thunder, Shadow Killer Without Trace, Demon Ape Shaking Heaven!

Five different embryonic Martial King Domains intertwined into a web of absolute death, completely enveloping the entire square!

All survivors, including Su Muyu and Qin Yue, were pressed to the ground by this terrifying pressure, finding it difficult even to breathe!

This was a true desperate situation!

With five Peak Martial Kings joining forces, let alone Lin Fan being only a Peak Martial Ancestor, even if he were a true Early-stage Martial King or even a Mid Martial King, he would surely die!

However.

Facing this dead-end situation.

Lin Fan laughed.

He first looked at the five pressing Martial Kings, then glanced at the 95,570 prestige value points on the System panel.

Then, in his heart, he softly said:

"System."

"Exchange!"

"Early Martial King Trial Card, ten minutes."

[Ding! Consumed 50,000 prestige value, obtained Early Martial King Trial Card (ten minutes)!]

[Remaining prestige value: 45,570 points!]

Buzz!!!

A majestic Martial King-level aura erupted from within Lin Fan!

Although it was only Early-stage Martial King, it was indeed a Martial King aura containing Domain power!

"What?!" Ancestor Chifen Tian and the others' pupils shrank sharply.

"He still has a trump card?!"

"A secret method to forcibly raise his Realm?!"

But before they could react.

Lin Fan raised his right hand again, spreading his five fingers, and whispered toward the Void Realm:

"Transformation Freedom..."

"past body."

"Manifest."
