Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide and tongues tied.

A human had dared to take a Precious Art head-on with his bare flesh and emerged completely unscathed. It was simply inconceivable.

"Isn't Kid Brother's body a little too powerful? Is he trying to attain sainthood through his flesh?" someone exclaimed, his jaw nearly dropping to the ground.

That attack had clearly been so powerful that even its aftershocks inspired terror and nearly killed them, yet a nine-year-old child had taken it with ease. It shattered everything they thought they knew!

Or... were Ten Heavenly Passages really that powerful, raising the flesh to a new level far beyond everyone else?

Sikong Ming froze in shock. Unable to believe it, he unleashed several more attacks, but Lin Fan remained as lively as ever, as though nothing had happened. Sikong Ming could not help shuddering.

"How could this happen? I refuse to believe Ten Heavenly Passages are truly this powerful, an insurmountable barrier!"

"Heh, other people's Ten Heavenly Passages naturally aren't, but I'm an exception." Lin Fan sneered and exhaled a breath of stale air.

In truth, he had devoted a great deal of effort to tempering his body over the years.

He had endured everything from five thunderbolts striking his crown to Heavenly Fire scorching him and extreme yang and extreme yin. He had long since developed his flesh to a new height; calling it attaining sainthood through the flesh would not have been an exaggeration.

However, his development of the Supreme Bone had also contributed. Whenever he was injured, casting the Supreme Technique on himself produced a mysterious power that nourished his flesh, making his body increasingly sturdy, unshakable even by thunder.

In that respect, it was like God closing a window for him, only to open a door. There were gains and losses.

"You've struck me so many times. It's my turn to hit back!"

Lin Fan stepped forward and became a streak of golden light. His fist thundered toward Sikong Ming in an instant, whipping up powerful astral wind that ravaged the ground and opened even more enormous fissures.

Sikong Ming looked up, intending to dodge and glide away along an arc, but for some reason, a force seemed to be pulling at him. He could not move an inch.

With no other choice, he was forced to meet the blow head-on, thrusting his palm toward the sky.

"Boom!"

Dazzling light erupted between them. Lin Fan pressed forward with fierce courage, shattering one purple rune after another. Fearless of the lightning, he plunged down with the unstoppable force of splintering dry wood.

"Argh..."

Sikong Ming screamed. His arm had broken and bent back on itself, the bone piercing through his skin and protruding from one side. Blood streamed down, spattering the ground.

But it was far from over. Lin Fan closed in, with no intention of letting him go.

Grabbing him by an ankle, Lin Fan swung him hard and smashed him heavily into the ground. Broken stones flew, and the earth caved in.

Still unsatisfied, Lin Fan used Sikong Ming like a whip and went into demolition mode, lashing down a swath of palaces within the Sikong Family's pure land.

"Hiss..."

Even the beings watching the spectacle from the city could barely bear to look. They sucked in sharp breaths.

Kid Brother was too ruthless. A distinguished genius with Nine Heavenly Passages was being toyed with like this, turned into a weapon for demolishing his own home.

Who could stand such treatment? It was worse than being killed outright, enough to make anyone vomit blood from rage.

And Sikong Ming did indeed cough up blood. The torment of his body was nothing compared with the torment of his spirit. It was utterly humiliating, utterly disgraceful.

Moreover, he had no power to resist. His opponent's strength was terrifying, greater even than that of a pureblood vicious beast cub. Monstrous was the only word for it.

"Junior Brother is so ruthless... Looks like he's been holding back when he fights me." Yue Chan's eyes sparkled and blinked.

Suddenly, a streak of silver light flashed out of one of Sikong Ming's Heavenly Passages and shot toward Lin Fan's head. It was incredibly fast and sharp, as though it had sliced open the void itself.

"Watch out... It's the Sikong Family's Clan-Guarding Treasure!" Yue Chan cried, her heart tightening.

"Shing!"

A silver Bone Sword swept past, grazing Lin Fan's neck and leaving a deep bloody cut. It had nearly severed his head-a perilously close call.

Had Lin Fan's divine senses not been sharp enough to foresee the danger and let him tilt his head slightly, he really would have died once in the Spirit World.

"You're being very naughty..." Lin Fan glanced at the Bone Sword flying back toward him and held Sikong Ming in front of him as a shield.

Yet the Bone Sword under Sikong Ming's control showed no sign of stopping. He seemed intent on mutual destruction, killing them both beneath its edge.

"Trying to die? It won't be that easy." Lin Fan snorted. He saw through his opponent's intention at a glance: unable to kill Lin Fan, Sikong Ming had decided to seek death instead.

After all, dying in the Spirit World would not truly kill him. At most, he would be weakened for a few months in reality.

For someone backed by a powerful faction, that hardly amounted to anything. A little Treasure Medicine would restore him.

"Slash!"

Lin Fan pulled Sikong Ming aside to dodge, but deliberately let his arm take the silver Bone Sword.

"Crack..."

"Argh..." Another scream rang out. One of Sikong Ming's arms had been severed, cold sweat poured from his forehead, and his face turned pale.

At the same time, the Bone Sword slipped out of his control and into Lin Fan's grasp. Lin Fan repeatedly drew it across Sikong Ming's body, sparing his life while inflicting pain.

"Argh..."

Sikong Ming despaired. His opponent actually intended to torture him to death, using the very weapon he had unleashed to subject him to death by a thousand cuts. The humiliation was unbearable.

"Please, just kill me..." He could not help begging for death. He would rather be killed now than endure this disgrace.

"Senior Sister is my darling, yet you dared insult her. You deserve this punishment." Lin Fan ignored him. Perhaps finding this too troublesome, he switched to his fists.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The earth shook, the impacts exploding like thunder. Fissures spread in every direction, and the center collapsed into a massive pit. Those watching from afar swallowed hard, their hearts trembling with each resounding blow.

So... am I that important to Junior Brother? Ripples shimmered in Yue Chan's eyes, and her heart stirred. Her gaze never left that small figure for even a moment.

"You..."

Sikong Ming opened his mouth, but he could no longer make a sound. Every bone in his body had shattered, all his teeth had fallen out, and there was not a single part of him left that could stand firm.

In all his years, when had he ever been so wretched? He had always looked down proudly upon his peers, yet today a child had beaten him beyond recognition, until he could not even raise his head.

No sorrow was greater than a heart gone dead. He would never run his mouth again.

"Be smarter next time. Some people aren't yours to judge. Disaster comes out of the mouth."

One fist slammed down. Golden ripples shook all directions, turning the pure land into ruins and finishing him off for good.

The remaining members of the Sikong Lineage trembled. Though furious, they dared not say another word, afraid they would be next to follow in Sikong Ming's footsteps.

Within this Heavenly Passage Realm, even a Heavenly God would be useless unless they had reached the heavenly passage extreme realm. They would be no match for Lin Fan.

As long as he did not venture into a higher realm, he was an invincible supreme sovereign here. No one could do anything to him.

Their worries were needless, however. Lin Fan had no intention of attacking anyone else. Instead, he stood atop the ruins, gazing down upon the world!

"Listen well! If anyone ever dares slander my senior sister again and say she's inferior to the Heaven Severing Sect's Demoness, this will be their fate!" Lin Fan proclaimed loudly. Standing there, he seemed the sole existence between heaven and earth, a supreme deity.

Though those below thought him far too arrogant, none dared voice an objection. Neither his strength nor the faction behind him was something they could afford to provoke.

"Go tell the Heaven Severing Sect's Demoness that I'll be waiting right here to fight her on Senior Sister's behalf!"
