Chapter 45: Survival Without Panic
Chapter 45: Survival Without Panic
"Indeed, it's bizarre."
The two Liu Family Elders furrowed their brows.
Their strength was even slightly stronger than Liu Xun's, so they could perceive the situation more clearly.
The strangeness lay right there.
Everyone thought this would be a fierce battle, with the outcome uncertain.
But it turned out to be another instant kill.
Moreover, it was a kill across two minor realms!
"There's something wrong here!"
"There should be other tricks up Moonseizing Sect's sleeve. Even though they're in decline, they've still inherited a heritage spanning tens of thousands of years..."
They were convinced that there was definitely something amiss.
Liu Xun couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
He didn't know what the problem was, but if it were him, and he had paused and blanked out at that critical moment, would he have been instantly killed by Su Xinghai too?
Most likely, yes!
With this thought, he felt a surge of fear.
If not for his father's constant reminders and the two Elders watching over him, he might have been the one instantly killed just now!
But how did they manage it?!
"Did the two Elders notice anything unusual?"
Both Elders shook their heads helplessly.
They truly didn't understand, and because they didn't, it was even more astonishing.
The others didn't understand either... In fact, not just them, even Su Xinghai himself didn't comprehend what had happened!
He had prepared for a fierce battle, ready to fight with all his might.
But he never expected that when he swung his sword, his opponent would suddenly stop their ultimate move halfway, as if offering their neck for the taking.
What?!
Could he be here to offer his head on a platter?!
At this moment, Su Xinghai even suspected that this guy might be intentionally offering his head as an 'excuse' for the forces behind him to launch a major attack.
But upon careful consideration, that didn't make sense either.
There was no need for such a ploy. If they wanted to act, they could just do it, right? No one was going to stand up for Moonseizing Sect. Why send a Fifth Finger Profound Realm third-level cultivator to offer his head?!
What was going on?!
Su Xinghai blinked in confusion.
Could it be that he was so scared that he froze up?
How could I have such an aura of shamelessness without even realizing it?!
It's absurd!
It's normal for others to be confused, but I'm the one involved here!
He exchanged a glance with Wu Xingyun.
Although Wu Xingyun hadn't reached the Finger Profound Realm, her perception was exceptional, and she also saw the situation clearly, understanding the strangeness of Su Xinghai's victory.
However, she didn't show it. Instead, her eyes slowly moved left and right in their sockets several times.
Su Xinghai immediately realized, nodding slightly in understanding.
Although he was also bewildered, at this moment, he couldn't let it show.
Only by doing so could he make those lurking with ill intentions hesitate!
With this thought, Su Xinghai stood tall, his aura more pronounced, and declared, "Who else dares to come and face death?!"
For a moment, the surroundings fell silent, everyone filled with doubt and uncertainty, and no one dared to step forward.
...
At the peak.
The three Elders exchanged glances, and Chen Erzhu said, "Could it be that the First Elder had a sudden breakthrough and gained new insights during the process?!"
"That doesn't seem right to me. In my opinion, it's more like that person over there... intentionally sought death?"
Duan Qingyao's expression was peculiar, "It does seem like that, but who would willingly seek death?"
"Huh?!" The seven mascots' excitement turned to bewilderment.
They didn't understand.
With their cultivation and perception, they couldn't discern what had happened in that instant either. They only knew the First Elder had won, and they were about to cheer for his invincibility when the two Elders dropped that bombshell!
Xiao Ling'er remained silent, but she was actually having an intense conversation with Liang Danxia.
However, even Liang Danxia was filled with doubt and couldn't determine the situation.
Of course, this was also related to her current state as just a remnant soul; otherwise, it wouldn't be so confusing.
Lin Fan remained calm.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Ling'er couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you know why this is happening?"
"?"
Lin Fan turned his head, his expression unchanged, and said matter-of-factly, "What do you mean? Isn't it because the First Elder is formidable?"
Xiao Ling'er was stunned, and for a moment, she became even more confused.
With the master's intelligence, she couldn't even discern a clue?
"Yes, yes, the First Elder is formidable!" Fan Jianqiang chimed in from the side.
Everyone: "..."
Lin Fan glanced at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, not exposing his thoughts.
Of course, he knew it was Gou Sheng's doing.
But the reason he was called Gou Sheng was because they liked to 'hide' and were unwilling to reveal their methods.
As the saying goes, teach according to the student's abilities.
Since he's Gou Sheng, why push him to the forefront?
"Essentials of Immortal Dao Array Techniques... Even though it's just a fragment, it's still incredibly powerful."
"This array formation, even though it can only affect one's mental state for an instant, is enough to decide victory and defeat, and life and death, in a skilled fighter's battle."
"However, his methods are truly astonishing. So many people, yet no one could discern a clue."
"And the previous heavenly thunder is also related to this Gou Sheng."
Lin Fan was certain.
That heavenly thunder wasn't caused by Gou Sheng, but this continuous storm and the rolling thunder that stretched for tens of thousands of miles—Gou Sheng didn't have such capabilities. However, the fact that the thunder accurately struck those specific people was definitely related to him!
"Regardless..."
Lin Fan spoke, comforting everyone, "At least for now, everything is developing in the direction we hoped for. If we can intimidate these petty villains, we'll have overcome this tribulation for the Moonseizing Sect."
"After this..."
Before he could finish, another anomaly occurred on the mountain.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Thunder rumbled continuously.
It was as if the Thunder God himself was unleashing his fury.
However, these bolts of lightning struck the Moonseizing Sect from all directions.
They were like pillars of lightning connecting heaven and earth.
Then, 'mushroom clouds' rose one after another.
Accompanying them were cries of agony.
And blood began to flow.
It seemed that the thick scent of blood and the smell of grilled meat permeated the air, even the downpour couldn't completely block it.
This scene...
It caused both those on the mountain and below to freeze.
Lin Fan subtly glanced at Fan Jianqiang.
As expected...
At this time, when the Fire Emperor is still in his 'seedling' stage, and I'm still in my developmental phase, Gou Sheng is the true king's path.
This hidden card is truly remarkable.
Actually, unlike others' excessive worries.
Up to now, Lin Fan had remained quite composed.
Why?
If Gou Sheng isn't panicking, why should I?
If Gou Sheng isn't running, then there's no need to panic! At least not for now.
So~~~
I can use Gou Sheng as my guiding light!
......
Below the mountain, in the shadows, screams echoed back and forth.
"You motherfcker, there's something wrong with the Moonseizing Sect, let's get out of here!"
Many Mystic Pointer Cultivators who had come for the Finger Profound Pill couldn't help but flee.
First, the Finger Profound Pill was consumed by Su Xinghai, so their plan was destined to fail.
Second, Wu Xingyun and Su Xinghai were both crazy, always emitting essence blood. Who wouldn't be intimidated by that? After all, they weren't that powerful, which was why they had come to seize the Finger Profound Pill in the first place.
Third, the elder from Cloud Soaring Valley died in such a strange way!
Fourth...
This damn Moonseizing Sect definitely has issues. We hid in the shadows and did nothing, yet we still got struck by lightning! We're already injured.
Recalling that several people from the first group were killed by lightning~~~
If more lightning strikes came, it would be hard to withstand.
Why stay any longer? Let's get out of here!
