57: Chapter 57 The Three Great Vajras
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
In the distance, the light from Origin Qi cannons flickered continuously, causing the dim canyon to alternate between light and shadow.
Inside the Earth Abyss Command Center.
Commander Liu Haoran stared at the sand table in front of him. His eyes were bloodshot, and his brow was furrowed into a deep frown.
"Report! The Fulong main battlefield is in critical condition! The Heavenly Snake Clan has deployed three Heavenly Origin Realm experts, and our defensive line is about to collapse!"
The dispatcher's anxious voice came through.
Liu Haoran slammed his fist onto the table.
"Dammit!"
He took a deep breath, his eyes resolute. "Pass down my orders! Draw fifty thousand elites each from the Tian Cang and Earth Abyss war zones and immediately reinforce the Fulong Battlefield!"
"Commander!"
The adjutant turned pale with fright. "If we draw that many troops, a gap will appear in the Earth Abyss defensive line! If the Heavenly Snake Clan takes the opportunity to counterattack..."
"Execute the order!"
Liu Haoran barked sternly. "Fulong Mountain is the throat! Once it falls, Zhen Yao City behind it is finished! As for the Earth Abyss..."
He looked out the window at the tragic battlefield, his voice hoarse. "Tell the brothers on the front line to hold their ground! Even if they have to use their teeth to bite, they must hold it for me!"
"The lords of the Desolate Realm are all watching the higher-level games; we absolutely cannot let the flames of war reach the rear!"
...
At the very front of the battlefield.
A young Human Warrior was kicked to the ground.
"Pfft!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood. The armor on his chest was shattered, revealing a wound deep enough to see bone.
Standing before him was a tall Marrow Cleansing Realm expert from the Heavenly Snake Clan. It held twin blades, its snake tongue flickering, eyes filled with a cruel smile.
"Lowly two-legged sheep."
The Heavenly Snake Clan expert stepped on the warrior's chest, the tip of its blade pressed against his throat. "Scream, why don't you? Weren't you quite fierce just now? Why aren't you screaming anymore?"
"Pah!"
The young warrior spat blood onto its face, his eyes fierce. "Beast! I won't let you go even as a ghost!"
"Seeking death!"
The Heavenly Snake Clan expert was enraged. It raised its twin blades high, intending to chop off the warrior's head.
The surrounding Human Warriors wanted to rescue him, but they were pinned down by other snake-men. They could only watch this scene unfold, letting out desperate roars.
"Die!!"
The blades fell.
At that critical moment.
"Whoosh—!"
A bolt of black lightning shot out from the pile of rocks on the side without any warning!
Fast!
Incredibly fast!
The Heavenly Snake Clan expert only felt a blur before its eyes, and a sudden chill came from its neck.
Immediately after, its vision began to spin and fly upward.
It saw its own headless corpse, still maintaining the posture of raising its blades, while blood gushed from its neck like a fountain.
"Thud!"
The corpse collapsed to the ground.
The hideous snake head rolled to the side, its eyes still containing the remnants of its past tyranny and confusion.
The entire field went silent.
Both the Human Warriors and the Heavenly Snake Clan were shocked by this sudden turn of events.
Beside the headless corpse, a youth wearing a black combat uniform had appeared at some unknown moment.
He held a battle blade that was still dripping blood, and he was shaking off the bloodstains with a look of disgust.
"Tsk, this neck is really hard; it almost chipped my blade edge."
Lin Fan kicked the corpse on the ground and turned to pull up the young warrior, who was already dumbfounded.
"You okay, brother? Can you still fight?"
The young warrior stared blankly at Lin Fan. "You... who are you?"
"Just passing through."
Lin Fan grinned.
"Hiss, hiss—!!"
After a brief moment of dead silence, the surrounding Heavenly Snake Clan members instantly exploded in an uproar.
"Kill him!!"
"This kid killed the commander!!"
Accompanied by a scalp-numbing sound of friction, over a hundred massive python beasts swarmed from all directions. These were war beasts tamed by the Heavenly Snake Clan, thick-skinned, sturdy, and highly venomous.
"Not good! It's a snake formation!"
The surrounding Human Warriors' expressions changed drastically. "Quickly retreat! These pythons are highly venomous! Once surrounded, it's over!"
The most troublesome things about snake-type beasts were their venom and constriction; even a Yuan Zong Realm expert would lose a layer of skin if they fell into a snake formation.
"Run quickly, brother!"
The young warrior pushed Lin Fan, shouting anxiously.
However, Lin Fan remained motionless.
He looked at the swarming snakes that blotted out the sky. Not only was he not afraid, but instead...
He smiled?
"So many?"
Lin Fan's eyes were glowing. "How much blood is this? I'm going to be rich, I'm going to be rich!"
The next second.
Lin Fan raised both hands, his ten fingers flicking in succession.
"Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap!"
Dense explosions instantly rang out in the air, sounding like beans popping in a pan.
Flick Finger Dragon Collapse Force at Perfection level!
With every flick of a finger, a streak of golden energy, condensed to the extreme, shot through the air. These energies seemed to have eyes, accurately boring into the seven-inch vital spot of every python.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The sound of watermelons exploding rang out one after another.
The heads of the dozen or so pythons in the lead instantly burst, red and white matter splashing everywhere!
But it wasn't over yet.
Lin Fan's figure charged into the snake group like a ghost.
He transformed into a harvester; wherever he passed, finger energy flew and blade light flashed.
Those venomous pythons that made the Human Warriors tremble in fear were incredibly fragile before him.
In less than a minute.
Over a hundred pythons had all turned into headless corpses, lying scattered all over the ground.
What was even more horrifying was that while Lin Fan was killing, his left hand was actually holding a large bucket that had appeared out of nowhere. He moved through the corpses with an eerie movement technique, catching the gushing snake blood.
"This..."
The surrounding Human Warriors were all dumbfounded.
Is this a damn war?
This was clearly a one-sided slaughter! And it even included packaging!
"Brothers! Charge!!"
Nobody knew who shouted it.
Lin Fan's powerful performance instantly ignited everyone's passion. Their originally low morale soared, and with Lin Fan as the core, the crowd formed a sharp blade-like torrent that fiercely pushed back!
"Dammit! Where did this human brat come from?!"
Deep in the battlefield, three terrifying auras suddenly erupted.
Three burly Heavenly Snake Clan experts, covered in black scales, let out a furious roar and charged toward Lin Fan.
The aura on them far exceeded ordinary Yuan Zong experts, and two primal energy treasures could be faintly heard rumbling within their bodies.
Second-Treasury Yuan Zong Realm!
In the Origin Sect Realm, one opens the body's secret treasures. For every treasure opened, one's strength would skyrocket. A Second-Treasury Yuan Zong was enough to crush an ordinary First-Treasury Yuan Zong!
"It's the three brothers! The Three Great Vajras of the Heavenly Snake Clan!"
A human veteran shouted in terror, "Careful! They are skilled in joint attack techniques! Quickly retreat!"
"Retreat?"
Lin Fan casually tossed the bucket full of snake blood into his space ring and looked up at the three figures charging with the wind.
"Finally, a few big fish have come."
Lin Fan pulled out the A-rank battle blade "dragon slaying" from his back. The blade trembled slightly, emitting a hum that craved blood.
"Boom!"
The three Second-Treasury Yuan Zong experts arrived in an instant.
"Heavenly Snake Wind-Tearing Hand!"
The three of them attacked simultaneously, their movements perfectly synchronized. Six sharp claws swiped out, and Origin Qi transformed into sky-covering wind blades, weaving into a death net that completely enveloped Lin Fan and the surrounding ten meters.
This one strike was enough to grind steel into powder!
"It's over..."
The surrounding warriors closed their eyes in despair.
However.
"Clang—!"
A clear and high-pitched blade hum suddenly drowned out the noise of the battlefield.
Lin Fan moved.
Sword Drawing Art!
Sure-Kill Blade Stance!
A silver blade light, fast as lightning, slashed fiercely into the sky-covering wind blades with a terrifying speed that struck after they did but arrived first.
"Crack!"
That seemingly invincible Origin Qi wind net was as fragile as thin paper before this blade light and was instantly torn apart!
"What?!"
The three Heavenly Snake Clan Yuan Zong experts turned pale with fright.
Before they could react, Lin Fan's figure had already passed through the wind net and appeared before them.
"I'll borrow your heads for a moment."
