Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Encounter with Gu Hanshan Again

Fang Lin was caught in a fierce battle. The sword techniques of the woman in green were unpredictable and elusive, pushing Fang Lin into a perilous situation.

Above in the sky, three Heavenly Origin masters from the Hidden Kill Hall were surrounding Elder Su. Despite being greatly outnumbered, Elder Su was holding his own with his formidable power. He was not in danger of immediate defeat, but lending help to Fang Lin was a far-fetched idea.

Whoosh!

Another sword thrust came from Fang Lin’s blind spot. Between gritted teeth, Fang Lin continuously shifted his body, employing his Nine Heavens Step Skill to its limit.

The woman’s sword was sharp and tricky, but Fang Lin had the Nine Heavens Step Skill. During his swift movements, it was hard to predict his whereabouts.

But Fang Lin knew this couldn’t go on. He had no idea how many Hidden Kill Hall assassins were lurking around. If he couldn’t break free from the woman in green soon, his chances of survival would dwindle.

Without holding back, Fang Lin slapped his Nine Palace Bag, and quietly grasped the Boundless Stone.

With a fierce roar, Fang Lin charged toward the woman in green. He displayed a reckless determination, as if ready to risk his life in a final showdown.

The woman’s eyebrows furrowed as she retreated. Her jade hand waved, and streams of sword light rained down like a curtain.

Fang Lin neither dodged nor evaded. The phantom of a mighty beast emerged around him. It was none other than the ancient beast Breaking Peak.

The Power of Breaking Peak, unbeatable in defence!

As he concentrated on the incoming curtain of sword shades, relying on the defensive power of Breaking Peak’s Blood Essence, he forged ahead and got close to the woman in green, his club descending on her in a crushing blow.

The woman hadn’t expected Fang Lin to be so ferocious. Startled, she constantly retreated with light footwork.

At that moment, Fang Lin channelled all his power and threw the Boundless Stone in his hand, which changed into a black shadow and flew directly toward the woman.

In that instant, the woman felt a tremor in her spirit and her scalp prickling. A sense of imminent death filled her heart.

“Get out of the way!” An elder sprang out from the side and pushed the woman out of the way, but he had no chance to dodge and was hit by the Boundless Stone advancing like a shooting star.

Boom!

With a deafening sound, the elder exploded into a cloud of blood mist before he even had time to scream.

The Boundless Stone, after obliterating the elder, sped toward the distance. Fang Lin immediately beckoned it back to him.

The commotion surely drew the attention of the three battling upstairs. Lowering his head to peek, Elder Su noticed Fang Lin’s powerhouse performance, who just killed a hidden high-ranking assassin, and instantly felt relieved.

The three Hidden Kill Hall Heavenly Origin masters were terrified, especially by the sight of the elder dying a violent death, which sent shivers down their spines.

The woman in green staggered up from the grass. Looking at the elder, who was now a mixture of bones and flesh, she froze before shrieking loudly.

“I’ll kill you!” The woman in green was furious. Fang Lin had killed the elder she respected most.

Fang Lin snorted and wore an indifferent expression on his face. Once again, he threw out the Boundless Stone.

This time, the woman in green had virtually no escape. If it hit her, she would definitely meet a deadly fate and end up like the elder.

Just then, a chain of flesh and blood flew in from the dark and wrapped around the woman, pulling her away. The Boundless Stone whooshed past, missing the woman.

Fang Lin’s eyes narrowed. Seeing the chain of flesh and blood, he immediately thought of someone. Someone he had almost forgotten about.

Gu Hanshan!

A man in a black robe was standing atop a nearby tree. Behind him, chains of flesh and blood waved in the wind. One of them held the woman in green, slowly lowering her down.

Fang Lin looked up and glared at the man in the black robe. Although the man’s face was hidden under his wide robe, Fang Lin recognized him instantly. It was Gu Hanshan.

“Brother Gu, long time no see. Why don’t you show your true face?” Fang Lin said with a smile, yet his eyes flashed with a trace of coldness.

The man in the black robe lifted his head, revealing his face. It was incredibly grim. Most of it resembled a demon beast – ugly and distorted, while only a small part was still human.

Fang Lin’s eyebrows furrowed. He hadn’t expected Gu Hanshan to have ended up like this. Back in the Endless Dungeon, he had already started to demonize part of his body.

Gu Hanshan stared at Fang Lin. His eyes, one of a beast full of brutality, and the other one, still human, were filled with deep, cold killing intent.

“Fang Lin, long time no see,” Gu Hanshan spoke in a hoarse voice, sounding like two pieces of dry bark rubbing against each other. It was extremely unpleasant to the ears.

Fang Lin smiled faintly: “It’s been a while indeed. I didn’t expect Brother Gu to join the Hidden Kill Hall. I thought you had died in the Endless Dungeon.”

Gu Hanshan was expressionless: “You thought I was dead. All of you thought I was dead. But I’m alive, and I’m doing very well.”

Fang Lin raised his lips: “Really?”

Gu Hanshan fell silent. He wanted to laugh. He wanted to laugh loudly, and he also wanted to roar.

His life…was not good at all!

In the Endless Dungeon, Gu Hanshan was close to death, but his demonizing body saved him, allowing him to just scrape by.

Luckily, he was rescued by people from the Hidden Kill Hall. They used an extremely sinister method to merge Gu Hanshan with the demon beast flesh in his body, turning him into a half-human, half-beast creature.

Yes, the Gu Hanshan of now wasn’t a demon nor a human, he could only be accurately described as a monster.

Each day and night, Gu Hanshan’s body had to endure torment as the human part was gradually being eaten away by the demon beast flesh.

Although it was extremely slow, one day, Gu Hanshan might eventually be completely consumed and turn into a true demon.

In Gu Hanshan’s mind, all of this was because of Fang Lin. If it wasn’t for Fang Lin’s appearance, he’d still be the Pill Sect’s top genius and heir to his father’s position.

Of course, Gu Hanshan wouldn’t think about how he saw Fang Lin as a threat and attacked him first, which ended up leading to the current situation.

“Fang Lin, you will die today. After your death, I will send your head back to the Purple Mist Sect for display,” Gu Hanshan said, his eyes gleaming with brutal light.

Fang Lin cracked a smile: “Maybe the one to die will be you. After your death, I will also take your head back to the Purple Mist Sect and give it to your father. I think he will be very grateful to me.”

Gu Hanshan’s face twisted in fury. Suddenly, he lashed out. Chains of flesh and blood flew out, bringing with them the sound of tearing wind. Sharp bone spikes covered each chain.

Fang Lin didn’t dare to be careless. He retreated, constantly wielding the giant club bone in his hand to counter the incoming chains of flesh and blood.

At the same time, Gu Hanshan leaped up like a beast, pouncing towards Fang Lin.
