123: Chapter 123 Senior, haven't you eaten?

The air seemed to freeze.

The skeleton stood there, dumbfounded, the ghost fire in its eye sockets nearly extinguished.

It looked at the pile of broken parts on the ground, then at the innocent and unsatisfied Lin Fan, its entire skeletal frame in disarray.

Its three most prized torture devices.

Broken, bent, scattered.

All ruined!

And the person being tortured was not only unscathed, but was also doing finger exercises, his joints popping with crisp sounds, looking as refreshed as if he'd just had a full-body massage.

"Is that it?"

Lin Fan shook his hands, looking disdainful.

"Senior, you're not very good at this."

"How is this so-called Bliss Hell like playing house?"

"I haven't even started using my strength, and your mechanism already collapsed."

"Is it in disrepair? Or is it that…"

Lin Fan looked the skeleton up and down, his eyes full of suspicion.

"Senior, are you actually a fraud?"

Pfft—!

If the skeleton had blood, it would have definitely spurted three liters of old blood by now.

A fraud?

It, the dignified Abyss Zero, an existence that made countless experts tremble with fear back in the day, was actually called a fraud by a greenhorn?!

"Presumptuous!!!"

The skeleton went berserk.

A terrifying black airwave erupted from its body, the temperature in the entire hall dropped instantly, as if it had turned into an ice cellar.

Murong Yan and Xia Wanqiu were forced back repeatedly by this momentum, their faces pale.

"Brat!"

"You have completely angered this seat!"

"Since the mechanisms couldn't kill you, then this seat will do it personally!"

"Let you see what true power is!"

Boom!

The skeleton took a step, and the ground cracked instantly.

Although it had lost its physical body and its former cultivation, this skeletal frame, having been tempered a thousand times, was itself a peerless divine weapon!

"Die!"

The skeleton's right hand formed a claw, and with a shrill whistle that tore through the air, it struck directly at Lin Fan's throat.

This claw had no fancy techniques.

Only extreme speed and power!

"Careful!"

Murong Yan exclaimed, wanting to rush up to help, but found that she couldn't even move her fingers under that terrifying pressure.

However.

Facing this fatal blow.

Lin Fan not only didn't dodge.

Instead, he took the initiative to stretch his neck out.

He even considerately pulled open his collar, revealing that fair section of his neck.

"Come, come, come!"

"Choke here!"

"I just happened to have a stiff neck recently, Senior, help me crack it!"

Clang—!!!

A loud sound of metal clashing.

Sparks flew everywhere.

The skeleton's bone claw clamped fiercely onto Lin Fan's throat.

But the feeling of crushing the throat bone it expected did not appear.

Instead, it felt like it had grabbed onto a piece of ten-thousand-year profound iron.

The huge recoil force traveled back along its finger bones, numbing its entire arm.

[Received physical heavy blow! Defense + 2000!]

[Vital point attack detected! Vital point Defense + 500!]

[Thorn Armor triggered! Rebound 200% damage!]

Crack!

With a crisp sound.

The skeleton was shocked to find that its index finger bone... had cracked!

And on Lin Fan's neck, there was only a shallow white mark.

"This... this is impossible!"

The skeleton shrieked (the sound of the broken bellows was even louder).

"How can your physical body be this hard?!"

"Even the Dragon Race of that era didn't have this kind of Defense!"

Lin Fan scratched his neck, looking innocent.

"Senior, you're not being interesting."

"I kindly let you choke me, why did you break your own hand?"

"Are you calcium deficient?"

"Shall I buy you some calcium tablets to supplement?"

The skeleton looked at its cracked finger, falling into deep self-doubt.

This claw of its was enough to crush a small mountain.

And it couldn't crush a human brat's neck?

Who the hell is the monster here?!

"I don't believe it!"

The skeleton roared, and its fists bombarded Lin Fan like a storm.

"Heavenly Demon Dance!"

Bang bang bang bang bang!

Dense sounds of impact echoed through the hall.

Every punch carried terrifying power enough to split mountains and crack stones.

Lin Fan stood there like a punching bag, letting it bombard him.

Not only did he not dodge, he even gave instructions from time to time.

"A bit to the left! Yes, that's it!"

"Two more punches on the waist! I just wrenched it earlier!"

"Lighter, lighter, this punch didn't land right, didn't add experience... no, didn't add strength!"

Half an hour later.

The skeleton stopped.

It was panting, its hands hanging by its sides, trembling non-stop.

All ten finger bones were cracked.

Its wrists were also dislocated.

Looking at Lin Fan.

Except for his clothes which had completely turned into rags, revealing perfect muscle lines, even his hairstyle hadn't been messed up.

At this moment, he was looking at the skeleton with an unsatisfied expression.

"Senior, why did you stop?"

"Continue!"

"I just warmed up!"

"Are you tired? How about a break to drink some water?"

The skeleton looked at Lin Fan's punchable face.

Its heart was filled with despair.

It understood.

It finally understood the feelings of those Martial Emperors who besieged it back in the day.

The feeling of being unable to hurt someone no matter how hard you hit, and instead tiring yourself half to death...

It's too disgusting!

It's too mentally draining!

"You..."

The skeleton pointed at Lin Fan, its finger trembling.

"Are you a devil?"

Lin Fan grinned, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth.

"No."

"I am just an ordinary F-Rank Talent Awakened."

"Just a little bit harder than others, that's all."

The skeleton was silent.

It looked at its own broken skeletal frame, and then at the two girls nearby who looked admiring (actually terrified).

It suddenly felt like it had lost face.

A dignified Abyss Zero, actually unable to handle a junior?

No way!

Absolutely cannot let it end like this!

Must use the ultimate move!

"Brat!"

"You are indeed hard!"

"This seat admits that pure physical attacks can no longer hurt you."

The skeleton took a deep breath, and the ghost fire in its eyes suddenly turned into an eerie blood-red.

"But!"

"True experts never rely solely on brute force!"

"This last level was originally prepared for those mages with powerful spiritual power."

"But now, this seat will make an exception and use it on you!"

Lin Fan's eyes lit up.

"Oh?"

"There are new tricks?"

"Hurry, hurry! Don't hold back!"

The skeleton sneered, its hands forming a strange seal.

The entire hall began to shake violently.

Deep in the hall, the tightly closed stone door slowly opened.

A terrifying, suffocating aura surged out from inside.

Following that.

Heavy footsteps sounded.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

Every step made the ground tremble.

A huge black shadow slowly walked out from the darkness.

That was a giant rock golem, five meters tall.

It was pitch black, with red magic patterns carved all over its body.

Most terrifying of all.

In its hand, it held a wolf-tooth club two meters thick!

"This is this seat's sparring partner from back in the day — 'Earth-Shaking Demon Statue'!"

The skeleton laughed triumphantly.

"It has no sense of pain, never tires, and has endless strength!"

"Moreover, its attacks have a 'Shock' effect, which can pass directly through the physical body and shatter your internal organs!"

"Brat!"

"You can defend against external attacks, but can you defend against internal shock?!"

"Hahahaha!"

Lin Fan looked at the giant demon statue, and that thick wolf-tooth club.

Drool was about to flow out.

Shock attack?

Directly affecting internal organs?

Isn't this a divine artifact specifically for him to grind "Shock Resistance" and "Internal Organ Strengthening"?!

This skeleton Senior is simply a gift-giving boy!

"Senior!"

"I take back what I said just now!"

"You are not a fraud!"

"You are my dear grandfather!"

Lin Fan roared excitedly, rushing directly towards that demon statue.

"Big guy!"

"Come on!"

"Use your big club to ravage me fiercely!"

Xia Wanqiu and Murong Yan covered their faces.

These tiger-wolf words...

Can you please be a little more restrained!
