Chapter 259: The Strength of Gu Hanshan

Translator: 549690339

Gu Hanshan felt a chill run down his spine, an unprecedented sense of danger enveloped him entirely.

Turning around, a colossal white elephant that surrounded Fang Lin had lifted one of its massive legs, appearing like a towering pillar, and was mercilessly stomping down towards him.

“Dammit!” Gu Hanshan shouted, exerting force in a sudden rush towards the front, disregarding everything else.

BOOM!

A resounding blast echoed, the skeletons on the ground where Gu Hanshan had just been standing were reduced to dust. An intense shockwave was hitting, almost knocking Gu Hanshan flat on the ground.

“Damn it! How could Fang Lin be this powerful?” Gu Hanshan’s complexion paled, his chest felt suffocated. In order to dodge the elephant’s attack, he was forced to increase his speed, disregarding the surrounding demon qi, which had in turn backfired on him.

What pained him more was, Fang Lin’s strength had actually grown to this point.

Back in the Pill Sect, when Gu Hanshan had set a trap for Fang Lin, in his eyes, Fang Lin was nothing more than an ant that could be crushed easily.

But now, this mere ant, who he had underestimated, was already to pose a threat to his own life.

Gu Hanshan was furious. He turned around to confront Fang Lin.

Fang Lin huffed and puffed, also somewhat exhausted. After all, it was a strenuous effort to run in the Ten Thousand Beast Graveyard filled with thick demon qi, even with the protection of the White Elephant Trampling Mountain, the consumption was enormous.

“Fang Lin, you’re courting death!” Gu Hanshan roared murderously.

Fang Lin sneered, “Gu, you’ve tried to harm me too many times. Today, we will settle the score. Let’s leave you behind!”

As soon as he uttered those words, Fang Lin acted boldly, and the white elephant raised its leg again to stomp down.

Gu Hanshan roared in anger, his inner strength bursting out. Instead of retreating, the whole person advanced, throwing a punch towards the stomping elephant leg.

BOOM!

A terrifying impact resonated. To everyone’s disbelief, Gu Hanshan had evenly matched Fang Lin’s White Elephant Trampling Mountain move. Instead, Fang Lin staggeringly retreated, and the phantom of the white elephant started to fade a bit.

This scene made Qing Jianzi and Yang Pojun, who were both rushing over from behind, raise their eyebrows.

Fang Lin was also taken aback, the strength of Gu Hanshan was surprisingly strong. The fact was that he had been hiding his strength the whole time!

“Fang Lin! Today, I will let you see the real potential of me, Gu Hanshan!” Gu Hanshan seemed crazed, holding a glowing sword, his body moved as swiftly as the wind, reaching Fang Lin in the blink of an eye.

Fang Lin did not dare to let his guard down, he finally realized Gu Hanshan’s true strength. This man was indeed sinister, hiding his strength from the beginning, so much so that even Qing Jianzi did not know how powerful Gu Hanshan truly was.

In fact, in the entire Purple Mist Sect, very few people knew Gu Hanshan’s true strength. Most people only knew about his superior pill-refining talent.

But in reality, Gu Hanshan also had an exceptional aptitude in martial arts, and Gu Daofeng had deliberately nurtured his son in secret, spending a great deal of effort and energy. He also always reminded Gu Hanshan to conceal his abilities, never revealing them unless absolutely necessary.

At this moment, facing the aggressively challenging Fang Lin, Gu Hanshan had no other option but to unleash all his strength, eliminate Fang Lin, and then continue to search for the great treasure in the Ten Thousand Beast Graveyard.

Fang Lin gripped the massive bone club, and it brutally clashed with the glowing sword in Gu Hanshan’s hand. Both of them were exerting their full strength, showing no mercy.

Fang Lin staggered back, once again hit by Gu Hanshan, who stood steady and rushed over again. Each attack was lethal, each blow aimed to take Fang Lin’s life.

Gu Hanshan’s realm was greater than Fang Lin’s, as he was in the seventh layer of the Earth Element, while Fang Lin was only in the fifth. The gap of two minor realms, under normal circumstances, Fang Lin would absolutely be no match for Gu Hanshan.

But although Fang Lin was at a disadvantage right now, Gu Hanshan could not defeat Fang Lin quickly, especially when it came to the match of physical strength, Gu Hanshan was subtly being overpowered by Fang Lin.

If they were fighting inner strength, Fang Lin could not compete with Gu Hanshan, as the gap in realms was not so easy to bridge. But considering the advantage of physical strength, Fang Lin could put up a fight against Gu Hanshan.

After all, Fang Lin had absorbed a golden pill passed down by the Four Saints. Not all of it had been absorbed, and some of it had fused into his flesh and bones, refining his body, making Fang Lin’s physical strength far greater than the average martial artist.

The big bone club was also unusually sharp. When swung, it was able to give full play to Fang Lin’s entire strength. Despite the fact that Gu Hanshan also held a formidable sword, it was apparently nothing compared to Fang Lin’s massive bone club.

Through the clash of strengths, Fang Lin gradually steadied his position. Gu Hanshan grew more and more alarmed as they fought. Initially, he was able to dominate Fang Lin, but very soon, he lost any advantage.

“Damn it! Why is his strength so great?” Gu Hanshan was annoyed. As the fight drew on, he saw Qing Jianzi and Yang Pojun gradually approaching. If they arrived, he would have to flee in a disgraceful manner again.

Fang Lin grew more courageous as the fight went on, and the White Elephant Trampling Mountain was cast again. Four large elephant legs began to fall alternately, forcing Gu Hanshan to dodge.

BAM!

Fang Lin seized the opportunity. When Gu Hanshan was dodging and his body shaking, he abruptly struck with the club from behind.

SPLAT!

This blow was life-threatening. Gu Hanshan immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling like his backbone had been broken.

Gu Hanshan roared angrily and released his most potent attack in desperation.

He saw his long sword fly out of his hand at an incredibly fast speed, striking out from an incredibly tricky angle, like a bird darting into the woods.

Fang Lin was caught off guard. This sword was too cunning. Even the Sixteen Anonymous Sword Moves he had practiced did not include any move as tricky as this.

Caught off-guard, most people would endure this attack as it was almost impossible to avoid it.

Although Fang Lin reacted swiftly, it was still a step too late. The long sword severely scraped across Fang Lin’s chest.

Instantly, Fang Lin felt a burning pain in his chest, obviously, his skin was cut open by the sword. But whether the injury was severe or not, Fang Lin didn’t have time to examine, only to smash down his bone club on the sword, throwing it to the ground.

But at the same time, Gu Hanshan launched a palm strike towards Fang Lin’s face.

“Die!” Gu Hanshan’s eyes were filled with savageness and cold laughter as if he had already envisioned the scenario of Fang Lin dying under his palm strike.

Fang Lin remained utterly calm, his eyes didn’t even blink, as if already expecting every move made by Gu Hanshan.

From Fang Lin’s mouth, a cold gleam was suddenly spit out – a silver needle as thin as a cow’s hair, directly moving towards Gu Hanshan within a short distance.

It was completely unexpected for Gu Hanshan. He was almost next to Fang Lin when the silver needle was spat out.
