75 Chapter 75
As Lin Fan moved forward to fight the King Beast, Angela also turned to look at Zi Ling.
Zi Ling knew that she couldn't fool her, so she spread her hands before pointing to the side, indicating that she wanted to talk.
Angela couldn't feel any ill will coming from her, so she decided to follow Zi Ling to the side for a talk.
…
During this, Lin Fan summoned all three of his pets to help him.
These three pets quickly transformed into their combat forms before integrating into Lin Fan.
Lin Fan's cultivation technique made him a physical fighter, so he didn't rely on coordinating with his pets to fight, rather he combined himself with their powers.
Xiao Feng was the first, creating a set of wind armour that wrapped around Lin Fan. Then it was Xiao Lei's turn who created gauntlets and boots of lightning that wrapped around Lin Fan's hands and feet. Finally, it was Xiao Huo's turn to create a pair of fiery phoenix wings on Lin Fan's back.
Once his armour had been formed, Lin Fan charged forward to attack the lion King Beast.
The lion King Beast had no choice other than to fight. It was completely terrified by the aura that Angela released, but it was forced to defend the treasure inside the cave.
The lion King Beast released its life energy which erupted into several blades of water that flew out at Lin Fan.
But with Lin Fan's wind armour, he easily punched out and deflected it with the force of the wind laws.
Pushing forward, Lin Fan gathered his own life energy into the flame wings to create even stronger flames with Xiao Huo. As the flames became stronger, when Lin Fan was close to the lion King Beast, the flames began moving forward along his body.
When the flames pushed along the wind armour, it drew in some of the wind which made it even stronger. Then as it reached the lightning gauntlets, sparks of lightning quickly filled the flames.
Seeing that Lin Fan was getting closer, the lion King Beast finally stopped shooting out water blades. Rather it gathered all of its water laws in its claws as it brought it down on Lin Fan.
Lin Fan didn't feel any fear when he saw this, rather he continued punching out with his fist covered in lightning flames.
As the energy surrounding the claw and fist clashed, there were sparks, flames, and drops of water that scattered in all directions.
For the first few seconds, there was an even clash of force, but that quickly changed as the King Beast's claw pushed Lin Fan back bit by bit.
While Lin Fan had a body that could match the Legendary Realm and he had the life energy mix of three different Platinum Realm beasts that had a sum that was greater than any one of its parts, it still couldn't match the power of a true Legendary Realm beast.
As Lin Fan was pushed back bit by bit, until he finally couldn't take it anymore and was swatted down into the ground. Lin Fan flew backwards like a cannonball being shot out, slamming down into the ground and creating a large crater.
When he made contact with the ground, the shockwave from the attack of the King Beast pushed through the wind armour and raged inside his body, forcing a mouthful of blood out of him.
This was his first time receiving an internal injury like this. Before, the worst injury that he had ever received were minor scratches on his arm from Lord Feng's attacks.
Being injured for the first time like this created a sense of danger in Lin Fan's heart, but it also filled him with a certain amount of excitement. To be honest, he had been finding his battles to be too simple, so he never felt any excitement in them and he never grew from them. But this time, there was a real chance that he might die if he was even the slightest bit careless, which provoked the talent within him.
Lin Fan wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth and he jumped up before charging at the King Beast once again.
The King Beast saw this human charging again, so with a roar, it released the smaller Gold Realm lions from its shadow again.
The King Beast was still vigilant of Angela, so it had been holding back to a certain extent to save energy to fight her, that was why most of its attacks against Lin Fan had seemed a bit weak.
While the Gold Realm lions charged, the King Beast also continued firing off the water blades once again.
When the Gold Realm lions reached Lin Fan, they couldn't do a single thing to him as they were caught up in the current of the wind armour and torn to pieces.
As for the water blades, they were deflected by the wind armour again and again.
Once Lin Fan was close to the King Beast, it raised its claw to release another strike, but this time the energy around its claw was much thicker. It was clear that this King Beast was trying to end it with this one attack.
But when the fist and the claw clashed this time, Lin Fan wasn't shot out like a cannonball.
There was a strange suction force that came from Lin Fan's attack that drew in the King Beast's life energy while restoring Lin Fan's life energy, greatly reducing the power of the King Beast's claw.
This strange suction force was similar to the one that was released by Lin Fan's dantian when he cultivated at night, drawing in large amounts of life energy from the King Beast's attack.
After the clash, instead of being shot out again, Lin Fan was only pushed back a few steps.
Lin Fan couldn't help looking at his fist in surprise, but he didn't give it much thought as he charged forward again.
The lion King Beast now looked at Lin Fan with a bit of fear in its eyes.
The King Beast was no longer passive as it charged out at Lin Fan this time with water life energy gathered around its claws.
Lin Fan punched out again and again, matching the King Beast's continuous claw attacks.
Each time their attacks met, there was the same suction force that drew in life energy from the King Beast's claw attacks, bringing it into Lin Fan's body.
Each time, the shockwave of the King Beast's attacks made Lin Fan spit out a mouthful of blood, but he quickly recovered from the injection of life energy. However, his face was pale from all the blood he lost.
Just like this, exchanging attacks again and again, Lin Fan slowly pushed back the King Beast.
The King Beast's disposition changed over time and soon it began seeing Lin Fan as a real threat.
Finally when it was pushed back a single step by Lin Fan, it realized that it couldn't hold back any longer.
The King Beast gathered all of its power into a single attack, which came out as a lion made completely of water life energy.
Lin Fan could tell from the intensity of this attack that he would be seriously injured if he were to take this head on, but he was unwilling to back down.
Over the course of the battle, Lin Fan had slowly learned how to control the suction force that came from his body, so now he had a decent control over it. Bringing both his arms back, he was prepared to punch out with both of them filled with suction force to draw in as much life energy as possible, allowing him to break the attack.
As the King Beast released the water life energy lion, it roared out as it charged right at Lin Fan. Lin Fan was about to bring both his fists forward to meet this attack, but right before it could, there was a blade of wind that flew out.
The blade of wind slashed right through the water life energy lion and reached the King Beast, slashing it across the head, creating a large gash that spat out blood.
The King Beast roared out in pain and wanted to fight back, but then there was another wall of wind that slammed down on it from above and it couldn't move at all.
Lin Fan turned back to see Angela with her hand raised and he knew that she had interfered. While he was a bit disappointed since he couldn't clash with this final attack, he knew that she was just looking out for him.
Angela saw him looking at her and she said, "Finish it."
Lin Fan gave her a nod before walking over to the King Beast. Looking into the King Beast's pleading eyes, he cupped his hands and gave it a bow before slamming his palm right in between its eyes on its forehead.
Angela had already shattered its life energy barrier, so Lin Fan's attack easily penetrated through and killed the King Beast.
Once it was dead, Lin Fan suddenly felt a surge of life energy and sat down cross legged to cultivate.
