Chapter 1167: Chapter 1166: Clint Arrives!
Everything before them had already exceeded the scope of Lin Fan and the others’ understanding!
If they weren’t underground right now, they would feel as though they had arrived in the legendary Immortal Realm!
"Boss, the thing we’ve been tirelessly searching for is definitely up above. Damn it! Giant mummified corpses and Cannibal Ants, I’ve gone through so much hardship and finally found this thing!" Nie Lei laughed excitedly!
"Go! Let’s go up!"
Lin Fan’s face also couldn’t hide his excitement!
Once the words fell, Lin Fan and the others immediately ascended the stone steps, heading towards the highest point, the Celestial Palace!
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a deafening roar came from behind Lin Fan and the others!
Upon witnessing this, Lin Fan’s expression changed instantly because that sound was all too familiar to him!
Lin Fan hurriedly turned around, and sure enough, he saw silhouettes emerging at the stone gate!
The person leading was Clint, with a well-built physique and a pungent bloody smell surrounding him!
"Blood clan members!" Nie Lei’s face changed drastically when he saw Clint!
Lin Fan’s expression also grew heavy; he hadn’t expected the blood clan to have caught up!
"Damn it! How did these blood clan bastards chase us all the way here!" Nalan Qiankun said through gritted teeth!
At this moment, Clint and the others stared at the Celestial Palace floating in mid-air before them, their faces filled with astonishment!
They had long imagined this place would be extraordinary, but hadn’t expected it to be so marvelous!
"Hahaha! I’ve finally uncovered the secret left by the ancestors!"
Clint spread his arms and laughed loudly, his face full of greed!
Lin Fan looked at Clint and said solemnly, "Clint, how did you find your way here?"
"Haha! I have to thank your great Tyrant for leading the way, otherwise this tomb is filled with dangers everywhere. Even if we could find our way here, we would suffer heavy losses. Tyrant, I really don’t know how to thank you enough!" Clint laughed loudly.
Lin Fan hadn’t expected Clint to follow them, but when they crossed the wooden bridge, it clearly broke, making passage impossible. How did Clint make it across!
"The wooden bridge was broken, how did you get here?" Lin Fan asked, puzzled!
"Are you talking about that mysterious sea of fire? Perhaps you didn’t know that when the wooden bridge broke, a stone door opened on the side. But Tyrant, that sea of fire was terrifying and among so many wooden bridges, only one could be crossed. It’s truly admirable that you all came through unscathed!" Clint laughed.
Lin Fan clenched his fist tightly, not expecting that after all their efforts, Clint and the others would reap the rewards!
"Get to the sky immediately!" Lin Fan shouted urgently!
"Understood!" Nie Lei and the others nodded, fearing hesitation, they lunged strongly off the ground, leaping swiftly towards the Celestial Palace!
"The ancient text records there is no Earth’s gravity here, allowing for flying, it’s actually true!
Seeing this, Clint’s face showed excitement, and he shouted, "Blood clan artisans, ahead is the secret left by our ancestors to become the strongest!"
"Kill kill kill!"
Deafening roars erupted!
Clint kicked off the ground forcefully, his body launching like an arrow, soaring towards Lin Fan and the others!
The other blood clan experts saw Clint’s move and quickly followed suit, dozens upon dozens, swarming towards Lin Fan and the others!
Soon, Clint caught up to Lin Fan first, extending his arm, his fingers turned into claws, aiming straight for Lin Fan’s throat!
Lin Fan was shocked, halting his movement, grasping the Soft Sword and quickly slashing it with force!
With a crisp "clang!"
The Soft Sword struck Clint’s hand, producing the sound of metal clashing and sparking!
Once reaching the king’s level, and given the blood clan’s inherently powerful bodies, Clint’s physical form now seemed forged from steel, incomparably tough!
"Tyrant! I am grateful to you for leading me to this wondrous place, hence I won’t kill you, but shall maim you, letting you witness me obtaining the ancestors’ secret and becoming the strongest!"
Clint laughed loudly, swinging his arm, fist clenched, launching another strike towards Lin Fan!
Lin Fan couldn’t afford to be careless, kicking against the sky to utilize the rebound, easily dodging Clint’s punch!
Subsequently, Lin Fan flipped his wrist, reversed his grip on the Soft Sword, and slashed forcefully towards Clint’s chest!
Though Clint’s body was terrifying, he dared not collide directly with Lin Fan, instead drawing a bizarrely shaped weapon!
"To force me to the point of wielding a weapon, in a hundred years, Tyrant, you are the first, you should feel honored!" Clint laughed loudly.
"I’d rather leave that honor to you!" Lin Fan shouted, halting his Soft Sword mid-slash and flipping his wrist again with extraordinary agility and speed, like performing magic!
Under Lin Fan’s control, the Soft Sword altered its path, once more aiming to stab Clint!
The entire maneuver demanded immense control and speed; a single mistake could break one’s own arm!
But to Lin Fan, this was all familiar, like second nature!
Lin Fan’s slowing move shocked Clint, who hurriedly waved his bizarre weapon towards the Soft Sword!
"Clang!"
The Soft Sword clashed against Clint’s weapon, sparking fiercely!
Lin Fan flung his arm, and the Soft Sword skimmed the edge of Clint’s weapon, seeking Clint’s wrist!
"Hmph! Trivial tricks!"
Clint sneered, opening his palm to allow Lin Fan’s Soft Sword to glide past beneath!
Then, Clint flicked his left hand, capturing the descending Soft Sword, and reversed it back towards Lin Fan!
Once more, Lin Fan kicked the void, rebounding to evade Clint’s strike!
Meanwhile, other blood clan warriors flooded in, turning the area beneath the Celestial Palace into chaotic disorder!
Nie Lei and the others, encircled by blood clan members, had already begun frantic slaughter!
Nie Lei, Nalan Qiankun, and Shunzi all hefting heavy weapons, pulling triggers madly!
"Bang bang bang!" "Bang bang bang!"
Ear-piercing gunshots echoed without pause!
The onslaught of bullets tore through the void, forming snapping sounds like popping corn!
