Chapter 217 Final Battle (4)
The minute Tian Xue and Lin Fan left the cave, they immediately soared off.
Tian Xue was even surprised by Lin Fan's speed since it was even faster than her.
It had to be known that she was a Mid Foundation Realm Cultivator, so she should be much faster than Lin Fan who had just broken through. But before she could react, Lin Fan had already disappeared from her sight at a speed that she couldn't believe.
Lin Fan raced through the woods with his Green Jade Boots and it didn't take long before he started feeling the shaking of the ground.
Each shake came one after the other, as if there was a pattern to it.
In the distance, Lin Fan could also see the birds flying off and the dust clouds raised by the trees falling.
It was clear that this was the path that the creature was taking.
But to his surprise, the creature wasn't moving as fast as he thought it would be.
He had seen how fast it could move when it charged, but the speed that it was going at wasn't even half that speed.
It was almost as if it was on a stroll instead of moving towards something with purpose.
He didn't really understand what was happening, but this was good for him since it allowed him to catch up to the creature.
However, Lin Fan didn't immediately approach the creature as he released Greeny's puppets to scout out the area.
The reports had said that there were two Foundation Realm Experts that were guarding this creature and they were the ones that Lin Fan had to take care of first. So he released the puppets to find the Flying Feather Organization's people.
The Flying Feather Organization's people should know where these two experts were, so it was better than him searching for them himself.
It didn't take long for him to find them since they had left traces for him to follow.
Once he found this trail, he quickly gathered with these black clothed people.
They were currently split in two groups since the two Foundation Realm Experts were moving separately which was also what Lin Fan wanted to see. He would want to take care of them one by one instead of fighting them together since it was easier for him that way.
But of course, he also had to see how strong they were before acting.
So he immediately used his Appraisal Eyes to check the Foundation Realm Cultivator in front of him.
To his surprise, he found that the stats of this Foundation Realm Cultivator were even lower than the one that had been guarding Feng Yu Ze.
He had been able to easily take care of Feng Yu Ze's guard without making a sound, so this one should also be easily dealt with by him.
But before he made a move, he also went to check on the other Foundation Realm Cultivator.
Once again to his surprise, he found that this other was just as weak.
He couldn't understand what was happening, why were these Foundation Realm Cultivators so weak?
Still, at least that meant that this would be easy for him to handle.
After making sure that these two would be easy to take care of, Lin Fan decided to make his move.
He snuck up on the first one that he found with his illusion magic and when he was only a step away, he raised his sword to sweep out at this Foundation Realm Cultivator who was completely caught unaware by his attack.
The moment that the sword made contact, there was the sound of metal clanging as if he had just cut something metallic.
However, the blade didn't stop for a single second as it cut right through the body of the Foundation Realm Cultivator.
In the end, there was a long vertical cut that appeared on the chest of the Foundation Realm Cultivator as his upper half was separated from his lower half. Even in his moment of death, the Foundation Realm Cultivator couldn't understand what had just happened to him.
As he died, his subordinates around him realized what had just happened as they saw the blade floating there as if it had just appeared out of nowhere.
But before any of them could do a thing, the black cloaked figures followed Lin Fan and attacked these people.
It only took a few seconds for them to clean up the rest of them.
During this time, Lin Fan couldn't help looking down at the Foundation Realm Cultivator who he had just cut in half.
After cutting him in half, Lin Fan was able to see what was hidden under his clothes.
He was shocked to find that there was a layer of armour that was over his skin, almost like the armour of a beetle. It was wrapped up over his skin like it was a part of him.
Lin Fan couldn't help trembling when he saw this.
It seemed like their experiments weren't just for creating these chimeras, but also to…manipulate their own bodies…
But what did they plan on using this technology for?
He almost let this thought completely consume him before shaking his head and turning his attention back to the other group.
According to the report of the other group watching them, it didn't seem like they noticed Lin Fan taking out this Foundation Realm Cultivator just yet.
Since that was the case, he needed to hurry and take care of the other Foundation Realm Cultivator before they noticed.
So without hesitation, he headed to the other Foundation Realm Cultivator.
When he arrived where the other Foundation Realm Cultivator was, he found that they were suddenly looking around themselves as if they had been alerted by something.
He didn't know what it was exactly, but his guess was that they found out about the other Foundation Realm Cultivator being taken care of. If he wasted too much time, they would most likely leave their position to go check on them.
He needed to act now!
So with the illusion spell, he snuck up behind the Foundation Realm Cultivator and then he raised his sword just like before.
In one swift motion, he cut right through the Foundation Realm Cultivator just like with the other one and soon the two halves of the Foundation Realm Cultivator fell to the ground.
Once again, as soon as the Foundation Realm Cultivator fell, the black clothed people of the Flying Feather Organization jumped down and took care of all the other subordinates.
They didn't stand a chance after being stunned by the sudden ambush and in just a few seconds, they all fell.
Lin Fan was staring at the corpse of the Foundation Realm Cultivator since he found that there was something strange about this corpse as well.
When his sword had made contact with the Foundation Realm Cultivator's body, it had made the same metal clanging sound that the other Foundation Realm Cultivator had made. Then when he looked down carefully at the Foundation Realm Cultivator's body, it had the same armour over the skin as the other one.
Lin Fan didn't know how they had achieved this, but he couldn't help feeling a bad feeling about this.
But he also quickly shifted his attention away since there was something else that he needed to care about first.
There was still the Foundation Realm creature that was heading towards the village.
He had taken care of the two guards, so now he had to think of a way to stop that creature before it could reach the village.
As thoughts quickly passed through his mind, he found that he couldn't think of any ideas. After all, he didn't know anything about the creature, so there was nothing for him to work with.
It seemed like the only viable option was to use force to stop the creature.
But that was very risky since he didn't know just how powerful the creature was.
He had seen a demonstration of the creature's abilities when he had snuck into the research facility, but that didn't mean that he had seen all of its abilities. There was a very high chance that this creature hadn't shown its true power then.
Not to mention what it would do if it was really pushed into a corner.
So Lin Fan wouldn't want to fight it head on unless he had no other choice…
But before he could make his move, he suddenly felt a sense of danger coming from behind him.
Without any hesitation, he immediately dodged to the side and there was a thorn that suddenly flew past him. If he hadn't dodged in time, it would have stabbed him right in the back where he had been standing before.
Lin Fan immediately narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction that this thorn had come from.
He was surprised to find that there was a familiar face standing there.
It was the Foundation Realm Cultivator that he had cut down earlier!
When he looked more closely, he found that there was the line from the cut he had made in his clothes and he saw that underneath his clothes, there was a raw part of his flesh that created a line on his chest. This was clearly the line from where he had been cut earlier.
But somehow, the flesh had fused together and the two parts of his body came together again.
Lin Fan couldn't understand how it had happened, but this person had come back to life!
Just what was going on here?
