Chapter 1648: Chapter 1745: Facing 8 Enemies Alone
The strength of the Eight Swordsmen surpasses ordinary Great Longevity practitioners. Each of them was a renowned swordmaster of their time, with profound expertise in the Sword Tao and wielding legendary blades that once appeared on the famed Sword Rankings. Hence, the combat prowess of these Eight Swordsmen is truly terrifying.
Even someone as powerful as the East Pole Heaven King would find it hard to determine victory or defeat in a clash against them.
If Fang Lin didnât reveal all of his power, he wouldnât stand a chance against these eight individuals. Though the two Ancient Demons heâd previously faced were formidable, Fang Lin felt their threat paled in comparison to the Eight Swordsmen.
However, at this moment, even though the Eight Swordsmen were surrounding Fang Lin, they hesitated to act. They could sense an incredibly strong aura emanating from Fang Lin, vastly different from when he was previously coerced to come.
The heavy, oppressive power he exuded seemed scarcely inferior to that of the Sealing Sword Pavilion Master.
Holding his ancient spear, Fang Lin coldly surveyed the Eight Swordsmen, his gaze devoid of fear but brimming with fighting spirit.
âWhatâs wrong? Afraid to make a move? Werenât you all so high and mighty back in Tang Capital?â Fang Lin sneered, his tone tinged with mockery.
The eight exchanged glances. Though Fang Linâs displayed aura was undeniably strong, these eight were once unparalleled swordmasters who roamed the world. They wouldnât be intimidated so easily.
In the next instant, all eight attacked simultaneously, drawing their legendary blades!
Buzz!
Brilliant sword lights erupted, and eight sharp edges targeted Fang Linâs vital spots. They repeated the same approach used in Tang Capitalânot aiming to kill, but striving to capture Fang Lin in the simplest, most direct manner.
Boom!
Flames exploded abruptly, violent heat waves surging in all directions. The Eight Swordsmen didnât dare withstand the Skyfire from Fang Linâs Ancient Lamp of Flame God and had to scatter and dodge the flames.
Yet, as they dodged, each of the eight slashed their swords, unleashing eight streams of Sword Qi toward Fang Lin.
âCan this harm me?â Fang Lin laughed heartily, allowing the eight streams of Sword Qi to strike his body.
The eight were instantly shocked. Though their strikes were not full-powered, they carried seventy to eighty percent of their strength, yet they didnât leave so much as a scratch on Fang Lin?
Before the eight could react, their legendary swords radiated astonishing energy that enveloped them with Sword Universe Qi.
With the protection of Sword Universe Qi, the Eight Swordsmen could attack without worrying too much about the Skyfire on Fang Linâs body.
âCome on!â Fang Lin, brandishing his ancient spear, fought fiercely against the Eight Swordsmen.
This was a battle of unimaginable intensity. Each of the Eight Swordsmen had a unique sword move, and Fang Lin simply couldnât match the sheer number of attacks coming his wayâlet alone eight masters at once.
Yet Fang Linâs greatest advantage at this moment wasnât just the power of eight Ancient Lamps of Flame God; it was his True Dragon Physique.
The existence of the True Dragon Physique made Fang Linâs physical body stronger than even Immortal Martial Artists, allowing him to endure the Eight Swordsmenâs combined assaults and counter them.
The Eight Swordsmen grew increasingly shocked. Despite appearing to have the upper hand, they hadnât managed to impact Fang Lin at all. Every strike against his body produced metallic clanging sounds, as if they struck indestructible iron.
âHas this manâs physique truly reached such a terrifying level?â The Eight Swordsmen were all stunned internally.
It was worth noting that their swords had once graced the Sword Rankings, each qualifying as divine weapons.
Furthermore, in the hands of these eight swordmasters, the full potential of these legendary blades could be realized.
And yet, they still couldnât injure Fang Lin, underscoring just how terrifyingly strong he had become.
Bam!
Fang Lin attacked relentlessly, thrusting his ancient spear toward one swordsman, who immediately dodged. Fang Lin followed with a kick, unleashing the Heaven Step technique from the Confucian School.
One Power Breaks Ten Thousand Swords!
The Eight Swordsmen retreated simultaneously, their sword moves neutralized by Fang Linâs single kick.
At the same time, Fang Lin slammed his palm outward, the Power of the Sacred Tree converging into a sky-shaking golden hand that descended upon the eight.
Without hesitation, the Eight Swordsmen combined their swords to resist, their sword energies soaring toward the heavens to collide with the golden hand.
Boom!!!
Sword Qi exploded, and the golden hand also unleashed tremendous power. The two forces clashed and balanced, stirring upheaval in both heaven and earth as Sword Qi permeated the sky.
Ultimately, the golden hand was blocked by the eightâs collective effort, and Fang Lin used the brief moment to prepare another move.
A small, seemingly unremarkable flame swirled in Fang Linâs left hand, flickering quietly. The space around it warped under its searing heat.
Fang Lin grinned at the Eight Swordsmen and hurled the flame toward them.
âNot good!â shouted the lone female among the eight, her Sword Universe Qi intensifying. The other seven followed suit, releasing additional Sword Universe Qi to shield themselves and retreat together.
But the fireball moved too swiftly, exploding before them in mere moments.
The scalding flames immediately engulfed them, the devastating heat waves surging to the heavens. Countless ancient trees reduced to ashes, and several demon beasts nearby were caught in the blaze.
Even the waterfall and pool of water were evaporated instantly, becoming streams of white vapor.
The Tentacle Ancient Demon hiding within the water pool screamed in agony as Skyfire consumed it, leaping out desperately.
Fang Lin exhaled lightly, the flames on his body dimming somewhat. That earlier move concentrated the power of the eight Ancient Lamps of Flame God, suppressing the flames for a massive, instantaneous release. Its power was undoubtedly terrifying.
However, such a move couldnât be used repeatedly. The power of the Ancient Lamps required time to replenish the fire energy in the world. After that strike, the lampsâ strength had diminished somewhat, though it didnât greatly affect Fang Lin.
As the overwhelming flames gradually dispersed, the Eight Swordsmen reappeared.
To Fang Linâs dismay, not a single one of them had died.
Such was expectedâGreat Longevity warriors were notoriously difficult to kill, let alone eight elite swordmasters. Their combined defense was naturally remarkable, and Fang Linâs single technique wasnât sufficient to take them down.
Still, the Eight Swordsmen were heavily injured. Their protective Sword Universe Qi had failed to entirely fend off the sudden explosion of flames, leaving them battered and miserable. The worst among them had both arms and half their body charred black, exposing their bones.
âYour lives are quite tenacious. I wonder, thoughâhow many more times can you endure this?â Fang Lin spoke with a sinister smile as another flame began to form in his hand, radiating an even more terrifying aura.
