Chapter 1042 - Chapter 1042 Chapter 1041 Silver Fox Makes a Move

Chapter 1042: Chapter 1041: Silver Fox Makes a Move Chapter 1042: Chapter 1041: Silver Fox Makes a Move Fang Lin had been stealthily observing for quite some time, and was already horrified by the strength of the man with the blade on his back, hesitating highly in his heart whether to make a move against him or not?

Seeing the two young men in white clothes in danger, Fang Lin did not hesitate any further, he struck with all his might, without reservation.

The man with the blade on his back was too powerful, with a blade in hand, he almost had an invincible air of a king, and Fang Lin knew he was no match for him one-on-one. The only chance was to take advantage of the man’s distraction by the two young men in white clothes, and make a sneak attack.

Stepping on the Nine Heavens, Fang Lin wielded a poisoned blade, thinking that even if he did not succeed, he could poison the man if he managed to inflict even a minor wound.

Unexpectedly, the man with the blade was well-prepared, his blade struck down towards Fang Lin explosively.

“I’m doomed, I’m doomed! I’m going to die!” Fang Lin muttered to himself with a frustrated face, and weirdly enough, he closed his eyes and braced himself against the blade.

Seeing this, the man with the blade showed a look of surprise. How dare this assailant withstand his strike? Was he tired of living, or did he have something to rely on?

Despite the surprise, the man with the blade did not hesitate at all and brought it down directly.

With a loud crash, Fang Lin was completely engulfed by the blade, seemingly obliterated by the man’s strike.

“Huh?” But in the next moment, the man with the blade showed a look of astonishment, as the young man who had been swallowed by the blade reappeared unharmed, the dagger in his hand thrusting straight towards him.

“I’m not someone you can hurt with that lousy blade!” Fang Lin cursed, already reaching the man with the blade, his dagger aimed straight at the man’s heart.

Thump!

The dagger was just a hair’s breadth away, as the man with the blade kicked out, sending Fang Lin flying directly back.

Moreover, his blade swung down again, with an even stronger force and greater ferocity.

Boom Boom Boom!!!

The ground shook, a large swath of dense forest was utterly erased, and although Fang Lin was screaming and shouting, he remained completely unharmed, not even losing a bit of skin.

This time, the man with the blade was even more astonished. The force of his two strikes would have injured someone of the same realm, yet this young man, merely exuding the aura of the Eighth Layer of the Spirit Vein, managed to withstand them consecutively without any issue, which was truly terrifying.

However, the man with the blade still remained confident, his confidence stemming from his own strength, and from the blade in his hand.

“You sneaky fox, won’t you make a move? I’m about to be chopped to death here!” Fang Lin yelled as he sat sprawled on the ground, gritting his teeth.

A massive fox tail flew in, sweeping at the man with the blade, the surrounding Demon Qi causing one’s body to shiver.

Finally, the man with the blade showed a rare look of seriousness, swinging his blade to counterattack the incoming silvery-white fox tail.

With a thud, strands of fox fur fell while the man with the blade was also pushed back a few steps.

This marked the first time the man with the blade had retreated since he started fighting, though only a few steps, but it highlighted the extraordinary pressure exerted by the fox tail.

The silver-haired woman walked slowly, her posture swaying, emanating the charm of the Fox Charm Skill, her eyes fixed on the man with the blade, her face bearing a slight smile.

At this time, the young man in white and the middle-aged man also desperately blocked the previous strike from the man with the blade, severely injured and unable to get up, but they ultimately still survived.

At that moment, the two of them were dragging their injured bodies, looking somewhat shocked at the scene before them.

They had also witnessed Fang Lin taking two hits without any damage, and they couldn’t help but feel terrified. Was this guy not human? What was his body made of that he remained unscathed even after taking two slashes?

The silver-haired woman who appeared later had shocked the white-clothed youth and the middle-aged man even more. She was clearly a Demon Beast who had transformed, but with such dense Demon Qi, she was obviously an extremely formidable Demon Beast.

The fact that she could make the man with the knives on his back retreat a few steps–something neither the white-clothed youth nor the middle-aged man could achieve even when they struggled together–proved her strength was far above them. However, whether she could match the man with the knives on his back was still uncertain.

“Old Corpse Ginseng, watch your mouth, or I’ll stew you for body nourishment,” the silver-haired woman said with a cold laugh as she turned to look at Fang Lin.

Fang Lin had indeed transformed from a millennium-old Corpse Ginseng. Only the grotesquely resilient body of the millennium-old Corpse Ginseng could withstand two slashes from the knife-carrying man without a scratch.

As for the real Fang Lin, his whereabouts at the moment were unknown to anyone.

“Silver Fox?” the man with knives in his hands said, looking at the silver-haired woman.

When faced with the knife-wielding man, the silver-haired woman’s face also lost its smile, replaced by a solemn expression.

“I didn’t expect you to still be alive. A hundred years ago, I slashed one of your incarnations. I thought you were dead,” the silver-haired woman said coldly.

The knife-carrying man’s expression was indifferent, “A hundred years ago I could slash you, and today I can still do the same.”

The silver-haired woman laughed, her smile charming yet revealing a grim murderous intent. “Today I will definitely kill you and turn you into my slave.”

The man with knives remained silent, stepping forward and swinging his knife straight at the silver-haired woman’s head.

The silver-haired woman waved her hand, and the Demon Qi coalesced into a palm, colliding with the knife.

Demon Qi surged, and the knife’s blade was rampant; the clash between the two powers was especially startling.

The silver-haired woman grunted, her face slightly pale as she staggered backward, while the man with the knives stood steady as a mountain, coldly watching her.

“So, you are injured and still dare to come courting death?” the man with knives said.

Right at the start of the engagement, the man with knives had realized that the silver-haired woman, though appearing powerful, could not use too much Demon Qi and harbored a hidden injury within.

The silver-haired woman snorted coldly and did not respond, unleashing the Martial Arts of the Demon Beasts.

The silver-haired woman moved like a phantom, emanating waves of a strange fragrance, making the man with knives miss several swings, and his actions also gradually slowed down.

“A fox is still a fox, just as a dog can’t change its nature,” muttered the millennium-old Corpse Ginseng not far away, but he wasn’t idle, holding a short blade ready to strike.

“Just the Fox Charm Skill, a technique you scorned to use back then, and now you have to rely on such mediocre methods?” said the man with the knives. His eyes suddenly cleared, and he stomped his foot, releasing a burst of blade energy.

With a booming sound, the silver-haired woman staggered back, her expression filled with shock, while the millennium-old Corpse Ginseng yowled chaotically, rolling on the ground.

“You’ve reached such a level!” the silver-haired woman exclaimed, taken aback by the strength displayed by the man with knives.

The man with knives looked indifferent, his attitude still one of looking down, even when facing the Silver Fox.
