Chapter 674 Final Clash (2)

p These balls of light continued to grow in intensity until they were quite bright.

Once they reached this level of light, they suddenly started releasing blades of light that completely surrounded the leader.

The leader saw this and knew that this wasn't good for him.

With the way the blades of light were arranged, there just wasn't any space for him to dodge with. The only way that he could resist the blades of light was to use his weapon to cut them down.

So without any hesitation, the leader pulled out a pair of daggers that he started slashing out with all around himself.

The blades of light weren't that strong, so he was able to easily cut them down, but he knew that this array wouldn't be this simple. And he was right as the blades of light continued to grow in power.

He knew that this was the same ability as the array that the lord had given the others and he knew that if he didn't do anything now, he wouldn't be able to resist the blades of light that came afterwards.

So the leader raised his life energy to the max and gathered all his strength into a single blow. He was so desperate that he even summoned out his pet to help him with this one strike, even though his pet didn't increase his power, but rather his ability to sneak around.

Still, even if his pet couldn't help increase his power, it would work as a meat shield to take a few of the hits for him.

But after gathering all his power, he noticed that something was off as the blades of light that fell on him started decreasing in numbers. They were still increasing in terms of power, but there were clearly far fewer blades of light that fell down.

He didn't let that bother him since that was a good thing for him. He just assumed that whoever was controlling the array had stopped the flow of life energy into the blades of light to divert some of that power into maintaining the barrier.

That meant that they were worried about his full power attack being able to destroy the barrier.

If it was the array that the lord gave them, there was no need to worry about this at all since the lord had told them that the barrier could even block an attack in the Nascent Soul Realm.

With this thought in mind, the leader was filled with confidence as he swung out his daggers at the blade when his pet suddenly blocked the blades of light for him.

However, before his attack could even reach the barrier, there was a bright flash of light that appeared in front of him.

He forced his eyes to remain open, but that didn't matter as all it did was allow him to see the blades of light concentrated into a single slash.

This was something that he didn't know was possible with the array that the lord gave them since he had never heard about this before.

The single blade of light that was thrown at him concentrated all the energy that had been in the scattered blades of light. The scattered blades of light only had power in the Embryo Soul Realm, but this concentrated blade of light pushed that power all the way to the Child Soul Realm.

The leader was also in the Child Soul Realm, so he didn't panic at first and just continued slashing out with all his power.

He didn't believe that this makeshift blade of light would be able to stop him.

But what he didn't know was that there was something special concentrated inside of this blade of light that even he could never expect.

This array was indeed the one that the lord had given the Assassins Association members to attack Lin Fan with, but after Lin Fan had obtained it, he had been looking over it to see if there was anything else it could do other than what the assassins had used it for.

In the hundred years that Lin Fan had spent in that trial's Illusion Space, he hadn't just spent all his time fighting the Beast Race and anyone else that came after him, he had also been picking up knowledge here and there.

Just the amount of array techniques that Lin Fan currently had in his mind numbered over ten thousand, so an array like this was nothing for someone like him.

He had easily been able to decode this array and find many surprising functions that he believed that even the lord from the Assassins Association didn't know.

Such as the ability to absorb laws as well.

Normally there were no concentrated laws in the life energy that the array absorbed, it was all the natural laws that were so unconcentrated that they didn't have any effect at all. However, if the people controlling the array were to release their laws and let their laws get closer to the array to let it absorb…

Inside this blade of light, there were ten different laws gathered together, creating a force that surpassed all parts of its sum.

As soon as the leader's daggers touched this blade of light, they instantly crumbled under its might.

The leader had forced his eyes open just so he could see, but that meant that the last sight he saw was the blade of light falling down on him, cutting him in half right in the middle from head to toe.

As he died, the only feeling that he felt was disbelief.

He couldn't believe that he had died to this imitation.

Even in his final moment, he didn't believe that this array around him was the real item.

After the leader had been slaughtered, he fell to the ground as the barrier around him disappeared.

As for Murong Yue and her two subordinates who had been watching the entire time, they didn't know what had happened, but it wasn't hard for them to figure out that it was something that Lin Fan did.

But that filled Murong Yue's heart with shock.

It had only been a few days in this Ancient Era Ruins, but the current Lin Fan was a completely different person from before.

She knew that she wouldn't have stood a chance against the barrier that had surrounded the leader. Not to mention that she hadn't even felt it appearing, so there was no way that she would have been able to avoid it.

But of course, the thought that weighed heaviest on her mind was that she was glad that Lin Fan was her friend and not her enemy.

As well as a bit of something else appearing in her heart.

…

Back in the cave, the Thunder Sect, True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association group were waiting for the group that they sent out to return.

They had known that Murong Yue's group had been bait, but they came to the same conclusion that Murong Yue had. They had thought that Lin Fan was uncertain of his own plan, so he chose to send them out as bait to rush things.

If that was the case, then with the Child Soul Realm Artifacts that the cloaked figure had given them, the group should have been easily able to take down Murong Yue's group with their number and weapon advantage. After all, they had even pulled in their hidden members that they had bought over to their side out of the people outside of the twelve great factions, so it could be said that they had committed everything they had to this offense.

However, to their surprise, the soul jade representing the group that they had sent suddenly shattered.

They had used this soul jade just as a precaution, but they never thought that it would actually play a role here.

Currently, there were only four people left out of their group. There was only Lei Feng, Shi Yi, and two cloaked figures from the Assassins Association left.

The three people of the group all looked at the figure with the different coloured cloak as they anxiously waited for his response.

The figure with the different coloured cloak had his cloak covering his face, but if it wasn't there, they would have been able to see the ugly expression that he had. As well as the look of rage that was currently burning in his eyes.

He had thought that this would be a simple matter, but every single one of his plans had backfired and he had lost quite a few artifacts that he had brought in with him. While those artifacts weren't that important to him, it still hurt that he lost them. It wasn't a financial loss, but rather it was a blow to his pride, suffering these setbacks again and again.

After a long period of silence, this figure in the different coloured cloak gave a cold snort before sweeping his eyes over Lei Feng and Shi Yi. After releasing his chilling aura for a bit, he said, "Why are your subordinates all so useless?"

Neither Lei Feng or Shi Yi dared to answer since they could hear the anger in the cloaked figure's voice. They just lowered their heads and waited for the cloaked figure to say anything else.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, the figure in the different coloured cloak turned to the remaining cloaked figure and said, "Follow me."

Then without saying anything else, he started walking out of the cave.

He knew that there wasn't much time left and if he didn't make a move, it would be too late.

Since that was the case, it seemed like he would have to personally make a move.
