Chapter 797: Full Power Attack

No one believed the Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion would refuse.

It was too tempting.

The tomb of a great sage, even if split equally between Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion and Shenxing Sect, would be enough to change the destinies of both forces.

Soon, perhaps both of them would give rise to a Soul Transformation realm cultivator.

As a businessman, the Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion had no reason to refuse.

“I refuse,” the words made Kang Lin’s face stiffen. Even Jiang Fan couldn't believe it. The Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion had calmly rejected the offer.

Kang Lin urgently asked, “Pavilion Master, do you think I’m just a disciple, and my promise isn’t valid? In that case, how about I invite my master to speak with you?”

The Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion looked indifferent. “It would be the same if your master came to speak. I refuse.”

“Alright, the deal is off. You may continue.”

He stepped into the void, his hands clasped behind his back, and departed gracefully.

Kang Lin’s heart plummeted from heaven to hell as he anxiously cried out:

“Why, Pavilion Master? What’s wrong with this deal?”

The Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion stopped. He looked down at him calmly and said, “If I were a small merchant with nothing to lose, I would, of course, take a huge risk, seizing the chance to get rich overnight at minimal cost. But I am now responsible for Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion. It’s not worth risking Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion on the incredibly high-risk opportunity you speak of. We merchants do not do business at a loss.”

Kang Lin urgently retorted, “But there’s no risk anymore! As long as we kill everyone here, it’s foolproof!”

The Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion said calmly, “There are no absolutes in this world. That Earth Phoenix tomb is also a risk. I don’t believe the tomb of a great sage is so easy to trespass. I also advise you to cut your losses in time. Of course, you three probably won’t have the chance to cut your losses.”

With that, he disappeared into the world, moving against the wind and snow.

“Pavilion Master!!!” Kang Lin let out a desperate scream.

Suddenly, a shriek rang out. Right after the Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion had left, Jiang Fan, Ren Guhong, and Wu Manyue, as if by prior agreement, simultaneously attacked a Core Formation Stage Level 9 disciple.

Jiang Fan alone could easily eliminate him. What more could be said when three of them launched a combined surprise attack?

The person died on the spot without even a proper reaction.

“This one’s mine!” Wu Manyue swiftly lopped off his head and was the first to put it into her spatial storage device.

“You!” Having lost the first opportunity, Ren Guhong decisively lunged at another Core Formation Stage Level 9 cultivator.

Jiang Fan blinked. He actually didn’t win the grab!

“Senior Sister Wu, how many years have you been single? Why is your hand speed so fast?”

Helpless, he could only set his sights on the last person, Kang Lin. But with a glance, he saw that Kang Lin had used some unknown secret technique to instantly appear on the horizon, and was rapidly moving forward with a strange, leaping movement technique.

Jiang Fan’s eyes narrowed. “Compared to Zhang Yundian, you’re much faster.” However, thinking about it, perhaps it wasn’t Zhang Yundian who was slow. Rather, he was severely injured from the fall; it was a miracle he could even run, let alone run fast.

“Too bad, you ran into me! Six Departments of Heavenly Thunder: Cloud Shadow!”

Swoosh—

He summoned a Nine Heavens Thunder Dragon and rode it away.

The next moment, Kang Lin, who had already fled out of sight, looked grim. “Hmph! If I want to leave, can you really stop me? Stealing the Earth Phoenix tomb’s burial artifacts without anyone knowing is now impossible. If this gets out, Shenxing Sect will certainly face endless trouble! These damned people! If anything happens to my Shenxing Sect, I’ll make sure Heavenly Secret Pavilion pays the price!”

As soon as his voice fell, thunder rumbled overhead. A thunder dragon roared as it arrived.

Kang Lin took one look and turned pale with shock. “Six Departments of Heavenly Thunder: Cloud Shadow? Are you from the Myriad Tribulation Sacred Hall?”

When he clearly saw the slender figure in billowing black robes on the thunder dragon, he exclaimed in surprise, “It’s you? Aren’t you a disciple of Heavenly Secret Pavilion? But how could you... Aha, I understand! You secretly learned the unique techniques of the Myriad Tribulation Sacred Hall! And you’ve even cultivated it to the third level! You’re finished! Just wait for the Myriad Tribulation Sacred Hall to come for you!”

Kang Lin let out a sinister laugh, as if he had found Jiang Fan’s weakness.

Jiang Fan coldly said, “Do you think you’ll still have a chance to report me? Six Departments of Heavenly Thunder: Indestructible Blade!”

Swoosh—

A two-hundred-zhang-long thunderous sword pierced through the sky, striking directly.

Kang Lin’s eyelids twitched violently. “You have Indestructible Blade too? Thankfully, it’s only the first level! Daluo Shadowless!”

He turned and unleashed two punches towards the sky above him. Two gusts of wind, emanating brilliant yellow light, surged upwards, colliding with the two-hundred-zhang thunder sword.

Boom—

The thunder sword was struck with immense force, and large arcs of lightning scattered. The remaining thunder sword pierced through Kang Lin’s body. It only made his entire body numb and tremble violently.

A fierce expression appeared on his face. “I told you, you can’t do anything to me!”

Jiang Fan, however, was unhurried. He looked around and said, “Finally, I can unleash my full power.”

Kang Lin’s expression subtly changed. What did he mean? Could it be that he had held back some techniques, deeming them unsuitable to reveal in front of the Pavilion Master of Jiangshan Yipin Pavilion?

“Yinsui Tiger Talisman!”

Jiang Fan’s palm flashed. A black jade tiger talisman appeared in his hand. He then slammed it down. A massive, incredibly dense mass of Yin qi formed a giant claw and slammed onto Kang Lin.

The pervasive Yin qi immediately penetrated his body, surging into his Core Formation. Kang Lin instantly discovered, to his horror, that his Core Formation was difficult to operate. This meant that his spiritual power was sealed.

“Five-Magnet Divine Light!” Giving him no chance to struggle, the Five-Magnet Origin Mountain suddenly pressed down, violently knocking him to the ground. A powerful divine light immediately enveloped him.

However, Kang Lin was no ordinary person. The moment he fell, he decisively used the remaining spiritual energy in his meridians to activate a spatial talisman. Swoosh— Before the divine light could completely envelop him, he instantly teleported away.

Jiang Fan’s expression darkened. His spiritual power was sealed, yet he could still escape!

But he couldn’t escape now. He looked in the direction where the spatial power had vanished. He summoned a thunder dragon and rapidly pursued.

Each teleportation covered tens of miles. After absorbing the lightning power from the thunder pool, the number of times Cloud Shadow could be sustained had increased from the initial five to eight. This was enough to cover a distance of two to three hundred miles, whereas a spatial scroll could only cover a little over a hundred miles.

Swoosh—

After several roars of thunder, Jiang Fan indeed caught up with Kang Lin. At this moment, Kang Lin was enveloped in Yin qi and was trying to expel it from his body by consuming spirit pills to restore his Core Formation’s operation.

However, Jiang Fan caught up so quickly. A wave of despair rose in Kang Lin’s heart. How could this be?

“Five-Magnet Divine Light!” With a low shout, the Five-Magnet Origin Mountain once again enveloped him, and the scattered divine light instantly covered Kang Lin. This caused him to lose not only his spiritual power but also his physical strength. His body became limp and he couldn’t move.

“This… what is this now?”

Jiang Fan flew down. Without a word, he unleashed a strange, lightning-infused burst of energy from his palm, striking Kang Lin’s chest.

Kang Lin’s face drastically changed. “Void Stream Thunder Energy? Ah, you are…”

Thud— With a dull thud, Kang Lin’s left chest was shattered. He shrieked, his body stiffened, and he stopped moving.

Jiang Fan’s eyes narrowed. He drew his purple sword with a backhand motion and struck towards Kang Lin’s head. Against people from the Outer Domain Divine Sect, he had to be extremely cautious. Until their heads were severed, they couldn't be considered dead.

But at this very moment, several spirit beasts galloped through the thick white snow. Their backs were filled with figures. They appeared to be powerful cultivators from a certain sect.

Kang Lin, who had seemingly “died,” suddenly opened his eyes and urgently cried out to them, “Seniors of the Nine Sects! I am a disciple of Shenxing Sect. A disciple from your esteemed area is trying to kill me! Please stop him, lest you bring enormous trouble upon your esteemed area!”
