Who would have thought that Shen Wuxiao would rush forward, and even ascend into the air?
His arm bent, palm held upright, he swung an elbow strike directly at Lin Fan's head.
This was the Elbow Control technique from Ancient Muay Thai.
If he were to be hit, it was possible his skull would shatter.
This was merely a contest of skill, yet Lin Fan found it preposterous that his own skills seemed a bit weaker.
It was completely unreasonable!
Lin Fan brought both hands up to block above his head, then pushed forward forcefully, intending to shatter the opponent with a single punch.
"Bang!"
A violent collision, and both retreated simultaneously!
The situation became a stalemate for a moment.
Lin Fan knew that gaining an advantage in terms of skill was unlikely.
So, he directly pulled out the Crescent Moon Saber that was still stuck in the wall.
Shen Wuxiao also drew the Life-Snatching Judge's Brush.
This battle between Martial Artists had truly begun!
"Lin Fan, you disappoint me!" Shen Wuxiao first raised his left thumb, then pointed it downwards, making a gesture of contempt.
"Pride comes before a fall!" Lin Fan said with a serious expression!
The auras of both men began to surge!
A scorching aura, as if Lin Fan were engulfed in flames, emanated from him.
His Fifth Rank, Eighth Stage strength was on full display!
Shen Wuxiao flicked his wrist, and the length of the Judge's Brush instantly increased!
Releasing his True Force, he was Sixth Rank, Fifth Stage!
Lin Fan was almost stunned. Damn it, he was a Sixth Rank Master, and at Sixth Rank, Fifth Stage, level sixty-five!
But the surprise lasted only a moment.
Lin Fan's fighting spirit intensified!
This time, Shen Wuxiao made the first move.
He wielded the Life-Snatching Judge's Brush with great momentum, unleashing the third form, "Alteration of Life and Death Records."
Waves of energy, like sharp blades, sliced towards Lin Fan.
Lin Fan rolled to dodge, tumbling on the ground.
Each wave of energy left a mark on the wall, as if cut by a blade.
Lin Fan grew stronger when faced with a stronger opponent. He swung the Crescent Moon Saber in his hand, unleashing a "Destruction Strike"!
The saber light was swift and powerful!
Shen Wuxiao dodged to the side and decisively closed the distance.
The clash of the Judge's Brush and the Saber began anew!
Simultaneously, fists and feet met, their figures intertwined.
Their moves were clear and powerful, swift and vicious.
Saber light, blade shadows, fist winds breaking the air, agile footwork – it was a dazzling spectacle.
The collision of power produced thunderous roars.
It was astonishing, like two dragons battling.
During the fight, their strengths intertwined.
The floor of this level of the building began to shake violently.
Lin Fan was indeed strong, but the gap was simply too vast.
Shen Wuxiao wasn't even using his full strength, yet he had already suppressed Lin Fan to the point where he could barely breathe.
However, Shen Wuxiao knew the rule of protagonists facing adversity.
He had no intention of holding back; instead... he used Fire Control!
During the fight, the dilapidated sofa began to heat up, and in the next second, flames erupted, illuminating the living room!
Shen Wuxiao brandished the Judge's Brush with one hand, continuing to suppress Lin Fan, while with the other, he gathered flames.
His abilities included Fire Control, and this time he would roast Lin Fan!
With another collision, Lin Fan seized an opportunity. He flipped the Crescent Moon Saber, aiming to slash at Shen Wuxiao's vital points!
Shen Wuxiao immediately raised his Judge's Brush to his chest, blocking the attack.
Then, he suddenly burst into laughter.
Lin Fan secretly thought, This is bad!
By the time he intended to retreat, it was already too late.
A sea of fire appeared before him, with flames rushing towards his face in an overwhelming wave!
Lin Fan let out a scream!
Shen Wuxiao seized the opportunity and kicked him in the chest.
Ignoring the pain, Lin Fan frantically patted at the flames on his head.
Although the flames ignited in an instant, his hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, and beard were all singed and curled.
Just like burnt pig hair!
Fortunately, the burning didn't continue, or he would have been disfigured.
Lin Fan was furious.
But in his rage, he only managed one angry outburst!
Because Shen Wuxiao was already lunging at him with the Judge's Brush!
If he didn't block this attack, he would surely be hit!
Lin Fan had no choice but to defend with all his might, using both hands to grab the front end of the Judge's Brush!
Shen Wuxiao was eager for him to do so. He put all his strength into it, his muscles tensing as he pushed forward.
Lin Fan couldn't match his strength and was forced to retreat, hitting the wall.
But his grip didn't loosen.
It was a contest of strength against strength!
Shen Wuxiao held the brush body with one hand and the end with the other.
Lin Fan, facing the brush tip, strained to shift it sideways!
Just as Lin Fan was about to move it away, the tip of the Life-Snatching Judge's Brush suddenly bloomed like a flower bud!
Lin Fan inwardly cursed his bad luck. Instinctively, he immediately turned his head to dodge.
But with that slight turn, a poisonous needle from the Judge's Brush pierced through his earlobe.
It was almost like getting an earring.
Through his earlobe, the poisonous needle embedded itself in the wall!
"Ah!" Lin Fan gritted his teeth in pain!
He raised his hand again, flipped it, and with a desperate attack, his saber slashed out!
Shen Wuxiao could only retreat to dodge!
Feeling the abnormality in his ear, Lin Fan couldn't help but curse, "A poisonous needle, how despicable!"
Shen Wuxiao sneered, "If I wanted to kill you, would I play by the rules? You're far too naive."
Lin Fan knew that if he didn't act ruthlessly, the poison would start spreading.
Lin Fan grabbed his earlobe, raised the Crescent Moon Saber, and fiercely sliced off his own earlobe!
"Ugh..."
Lin Fan let out a pained groan, and an earlobe was now in his hand!
His ear was missing a piece, and blood splattered all over his cheek.
Lin Fan, being experienced, also understood that in this state, if he continued to fight, he would surely die!
Therefore, of the thirty-six stratagems, fleeing was the best option!
As a Fifth Rank, Eighth Stage expert, if he wanted to escape, it would be difficult for the other party to catch him.
Lin Fan didn't hesitate. Even though he was on the eighth floor, he broke through the window and leaped out!
Using the momentum of his arm, he hooked onto a protruding ledge outside, absorbing the impact.
He dropped two floors, then leaped down again, landing and rolling to dissipate the force before quickly running away!
His figure soon disappeared into the night!
Shen Wuxiao had no intention of pursuing.
He stood by the window, watching the disappearing figure, and slowly removed his mask.
In the moonlight, his handsome face was revealed, a faint, wicked smile playing on his lips.
"Destiny Protagonist, truly formidable. But you probably don't understand what a 'dark halo' is and how it can counteract a protagonist's halo!"
"With this kind of cancellation, neither of us has a halo!"
However, Shen Wuxiao still had his cheat!
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the mission. Your reward of 100,000 points has been issued!"
"?"
"Don't you have to cut off an ear to count?"
"No, you don't. If the Protagonist's ear is missing, that counts too!"
"Mission completion evaluation: Excellent. Additional reward: Sixth Rank exclusive pink divine artifact, the 'Duke of Destruction' revolver."
"Bullets imbued with True Force, they ignore protective True Force. However, they cannot easily penetrate the protective Protective Aura of a Grandmaster; multiple shots are required."
"It holds six bullets at a time. Bullets must be purchased separately. Ordinary bullets cannot be substituted."
"Each bullet deducts one hundred points."
Shen Wuxiao was overjoyed. The System knew what he wanted and gave it to him!
And, damn, each bullet was only a hundred points. With his hundreds of thousands of points, he could just blast the Destiny Protagonist until his grandma's house collapsed!
Soon, Shen Wuxiao had a revolver in his hand. Its carvings were peculiar, like a phantom.
The gun body emitted a faint glow, looking incredibly cool!
Shen Wuxiao couldn't wait to try it. He aimed at the wall and fired a shot.
"Bang!"
The bullet moved with the speed of light, its trajectory impossible to track.
When it hit the wall, it pierced straight through. The dim light from outside shone through the hole.
Ordinary firearms and ammunition would at most leave a mark and chip off some plaster when hitting a wall.
But this one had penetrated it.
With such terrifying power, if it hit a person, it would instantly blow their body apart.
Shen Wuxiao was very satisfied with his night's work.
He put his mask back on, left the room, went straight downstairs, and exited the demolition building!
He got into his car and sped away!
