Chapter 430: 430: Killing You the Second Time
Chapter 430: Killing You the Second Time
Fang Lin laughed with joy. This spear was truly formidable; even the mysterious woman in the white dress seemed to dread it.
However, the next moment, his joy waned. The lady in white showed a horrendous expression on her face. Her body emanated an eerie swirl of deathly aura like a storm, sweeping all the scattered bones on the ground into the vortex of death.
“Do you intend to kill me again with this spear? Then come on,” a terrifying voice echoed from within the spiral of death, transforming into a massive ghostly figure with angry, blood-red eyes glowering at the ancient spear.
The bellowing of the spear grew louder, the aura of its killing intent seemingly ready to tear the heavens apart, but it didn’t make its move.
“Hahaha! So, you’ve been sealed. As you are now, you are powerless to kill me!” The giant ghostly figure let out a deafening roar, suddenly sending forth a violent surge of deathly aura. The spear drowned in it, fell to the ground, and implanted itself right in front of Fang Lin.
Overwhelmed by the deathly aura, Fang Lin tumbled several times on the ground. His whole body felt as if it was about to fall apart.
Boom!!!
The ghostly figure launched another attack, not aiming for the spear this time, but directly at Fang Lin.
“I gave you the chance to stay here with me forever, but you failed to grasp it. So, now, I’ll let you become a part of me,” the ghostly figure roared, stretching out an arm made entirely of bone from the whirlpool of death.
Fang Lin’s face was grim. The woman in white had transformed into a horrifying and overpowering monster, leaving him utterly helpless.
As the bony arm emanating a strong deathly aura hurtled towards him, Fang Lin didn’t hesitate and immediately threw the Boundless Stone.
Boom!!!
With tremendously destructive power, the Boundless Stone shattered the bony arm immediately.
But in the blink of an eye, the bony arm regenerated as if nothing had happened. The Boundless Stone had not caused any real damage.
Upon seeing this, Fang Lin clenched his teeth. Even the Boundless Stone couldn’t harm this monster, he was in serious trouble.
The bony arm attacked again, making Fang Lin groan in pain, he felt as if his entire body was about to be crushed.
The pressure from the bony hand was too overwhelming. Fang Lin had no strength left to resist. It seemed that even the slightest touch from the bony hand would reduce him to ash.
This feeling of despair was even stronger than when he had encountered Gu Daofeng. Because he could gauge the strength of Gu Daofeng, but this monster, transformed from the lady in white, was unimaginable.
Buzz!!!
The spear flew over, impaling itself before Fang Lin. It mitigated some of the pressure he was under and buzzed continuously, as if anxious.
“Grasp it!” A voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Fang Lin hesitated. To him, although this spear was more approachable than the blood-red longsword, it was equally baffling.
And besides, each time Fang Lin gripped this spear, he nearly lost his sanity and became a killing machine, so he was terrified.
But currently, it seemed like his only chance to fight against this woman in white was by harnessing the power of this spear.
As the bony hand lunged at him again, Fang Lin had no time to hesitate. Gritting his teeth, he grasped the spear.
Attack!!!
In that instant, Fang Lin’s eyes turned blood-red, his whole being enveloped in a strong killing intent. Even his hair and eyebrows turned bright red.
Attack!!!
Fang Lin roared, his voice changed, becoming extremely harsh; it was like a slumbering lion releasing the power of a king.
Leaping up, Fang Lin poured all his strength into the spear. The rust on the spear seemed to vanish for an instant, revealing its sharp radiance.
Rumble!!!
At that moment, Fang Lin, holding the spear, directly cleaved the bony hand and fearlessly plunged into the whirlpool of deathly aura.
“No!!! You’ve been sealed. Why awaken now?!!!” The wailing voice of the white-dressed woman echoed from the vortex of death as Fang Lin’s final roar caused the vortex of death to dissipate. Countless bones rained down from above like a shower of bones.
Splash!
Fang Lin fell from above, looking as he did before, completely drained of energy. His inner strength depleted, he was utterly exhausted.
The spear fell, stabbing into the muddy ground next to Fang Lin. Its glow had faded, showcasing its rusty appearance. At first glance, it was merely an old and mundane spear.
Not far away, the white-dressed woman lay on the ground, with deathly aura gradually dissipating from her body and a ghastly smile on her face.
“The second time, I was killed by this spear a second time! Is this the will of the heavens?” The woman in white laughed grimly, her deathly aura fading away rapidly.
In a short time, the woman in white disappeared, leaving behind just a grey pill, lying there quietly.
Fang Lin struggled to sit up, ingested some pills to regain his strength, and glanced at the Corpse Emperor Pill not far away.
“Old Pickle, are you there? If you are, give me a sign.” Fang Lin weakly called out.
“Of course, this lord is here!” The ancient Corpse Ginseng popped out from a crack in a stone nearby, brandishing a fearless expression.
Fang Lin sneered; this fellow had fled pretty fast, hiding directly into a crack in the stone.
“Quickly, bring me that Corpse Emperor Pill!” Fang Lin pointed at the Corpse Emperor Pill and said.
The ancient Corpse Ginseng drooled at the sight of the Corpse Emperor Pill before shaking its head.
“We cannot touch this Corpse Emperor Pill,” the Corpse Ginseng said, its eyes unusually serious.
“Why?” Fang Lin asked, puzzled. The woman in white had dissipated. Why couldn’t they take the Corpse Emperor Pill?
The ancient Corpse Ginseng pointed above and said cautiously, “Didn’t I tell you? There’s an array here. The woman’s not dead. As long as the array stays, she’ll not die. If we attempt to grab the Corpse Emperor Pill, it would just spell trouble. We should leave right away.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin’s face turned solemn. This wasn’t good news – the woman in white couldn’t be killed here after all.
“Look, don’t take unnecessary risks. If this woman recovers, both of us are done for. If it wasn’t for my loyalty, I would have left alone.” The ancient Corpse Ginseng patted Fang Lin’s shoulder and spoke with deep gravity.
Fang Lin gave it a glance, “You’re just hooked on my ancient medicinal herbs, aren’t you? Otherwise, you old coot would have taken off long ago.”
“Cough, you misjudge me, boy! I ain’t that kind of being,” the ancient Corpse Ginseng replied unabashedly.
At that moment, the Corpse Emperor Pill indeed started to gather deathly aura. The woman in white was quickly recovering.
