Chapter 591: Chapter 591: Ink-colored Seal

The sudden appearance of this dark seal took everyone by surprise, even Fang Lin, who only became alert when he heard a whooshing sound behind him.

In the next moment, Fang Lin leapt sharply without hesitation and narrowly avoided the strike of the dark seal.

With a loud boom, a deep pit was formed where Fang Lin had just been standing. This sight shocked Fang Lin into a cold sweat. If he had dodged even a fraction slower, he would have been smashed into pieces.

Everyone was shocked. They had just defeated the King of Ghost Bats, so how could there be another sudden change?

“You reacted quite quickly, but that’s all you could do.” A cold voice echoed. Everyone followed the direction of the voice and saw a young man and woman walking leisurely toward them. The speaker was the young man.

Seeing these two people, Fang Lin’s face changed dramatically. They had shown up at the absolute worst time possible.

Steward Shen’s face also changed drastically. He had used his Spirit Eye to recognize these two individuals. Initially, he was unsure whether they were friend or foe, but now, seeing their assault on Fang Lin, it was obvious they were enemies.

“People from the Western Guarding Palace!” Fang Lin’s voice was shrouded in icy coldness, his gaze unusually grim as he clasped onto the Nine Palace Bag.

The young man stared coldly at Fang Lin. “Lord Hall has taken offense at you. We were ordered to take your head.”

Hearing those words, Steward Shen and others were all taken aback. Fang Lin had offended the Lord of the Western Town? And these two were assassins sent by him? This was no small matter.

Fang Lin sneered. “Such a lofty figure as the Lord of Western Palace, and yet he is so petty. Just because I took a few of his rare treasures, he has sent you to kill me in this Hundred Beast Mountain.”

“Enough talk. Since we’ve found you, it would be better if you kill yourself to spare us the effort,” the woman in black said.

A cold glint flickered in Fang Lin’s eyes. “You want me to take my own life? How naive of you. Since you’ve come here, don’t plan to leave alive!”

With that, Fang Lin slapped his Nine Palace Bag, pulling out a massive bone baton, and surreptitiously gripped the Boundless Stone in his palm.

“Seeking death!” The young man bellowed, eschewing the dark seal, he personally attacked Fang Lin.

“The one seeking death is you!” Fang Lin roared, unleashing his energy and swinging his baton fiercely.

The young man met Fang Lin’s baton with his fist without any fear, choosing to counter Fang Lin’s bone baton head-on with unshakeable confidence.

With a muffled thud, the young man’s fist collided with the massive bone baton.

The bone baton shattered with a crack at the impact, actually smashed into pieces by the young man’s punch.

But the young man also didn’t escape unscathed. His fist was also injured by Fang Lin’s baton.

Fang Lin backed away, looking at the bone baton in his hand, a large chunk of which was now missing.

However, Fang Lin had achieved his purpose. Looking at the young man now, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

“Why are you laughing? If this is your strongest attack, it’s only inflicted a flesh wound on me,” the young man sneered.

Fang Lin sheathed the bone baton back into his bag, wearing a mocking expression he looked at the man. “You are a Pill Refiner too, haven’t you noticed it yet?”

At his words, the young man’s expression shifted slightly and he immediately looked at his right fist.

Upon seeing it, he became instantly alarmed. To his horror, he found some black substance on his right fist, which was causing his wound to expand constantly.

“What did you do?” the young man demanded angrily.

Fang Lin laughed loudly. “I didn’t do much, I just dusted some poison on the baton; you were too arrogant and you fell into my trap.”

Hearing this, the young man nearly choked on his anger. Having considered himself superior to Fang Lin, he had been reckless and used bare hands to face Fang Lin. He hadn’t expected to fall into Fang Lin’s trap.

The woman in black also glared at Fang Lin in a mix of surprise and anger. “You actually used poison!”

Fang Lin retorted dismissively, “You came to kill me, what’s wrong with me poisoning you? Did you expect me to just sit and wait for death?”

The young man gritted his teeth in anger. He tried to force out the poison in his fist with his Inner Strength, but it was ineffectual. In fact, it only sped up the effect of the poison, making his wound worse. His flesh rapidly rotted away, exposing the bone.

What was most terrifying was that this poison was extremely strange, it didn’t cause the young man any pain. However, he could visibly see his flesh cascading off.

Immediately, the young man swallowed a Detoxification Pill. They had made extensive preparations for their journey into the Ferocious Mountain, so of course, they wouldn’t lack detoxification pills.

Unfortunately, the poison that Fang Lin used wasn’t something that ordinary detoxification pills could cure. Even a Master of Pill would need a few days to figure out how to neutralize it.

The young man may be highly accomplished in his cultivation, but he was helpless against Fang Lin’s poison. He could only watch as his fist gradually became necrotic.

“Hand over the antidote!” The woman in black stepped forward, her eyes fixed intently on Fang Lin.

Fang Lin spread his hands apologetically. “Sorry, I don’t have an antidote.”

Upon hearing this, the young man’s heart pounded with fear. If there was no antidote, was he supposed to watch as the rot continued to spread?

The woman in black became enraged and immediately attacked Fang Lin again, but this time she was more cautious and didn’t engage Fang Lin head-on.

The dark seal was approaching again, carrying an unparalleled force, seemingly intent on suppressing Fang Lin.

Fang Lin’s expression changed. He dared not resist the might of this seal. This treasure was extraordinary. If he were to resist it head-on, it would surely end badly for him.

Immediately, Fang Lin flicked the Boundless Stone out of his hand. The stone whistled through the air, colliding with the dark seal.

Boom!

The usually invincible Boundless Stone met its match this time. It was instantly repelled by the dark seal.

Seeing this, Fang Lin’s heart skipped a beat. The strength of a Boundless Stone could shatter a mountain, yet it didn’t leave any trace on the seal. The power of this treasure was even beyond Fang Lin’s expectation.

The dark seal exuded a black light and enveloped Fang Lin entirely.

In that instant, Fang Lin’s blood and energy churned within him, and he was forced to kneel on the floor, spewing blood from his mouth.

“Get off me!” raged Fang Lin as he opened his Spirit Eye. A blue light turned into a large hand, trying to grab the dark seal.

Unfortunately, before the large blue hand could touch the dark seal, it crumbled under its force.

As Fang Lin’s suppression appeared imminent, the royal people nearby revealed looks of delight. Once Fang Lin was suppressed, they would regain their freedom.

However, thinking about the poison inside their bodies, their expressions immediately dropped. Should Fang Lin die, they’d probably only survive a few more days.

“Don’t you want your antidote? Won’t you fight!?” Fang Lin roared at the royals.
