Chapter 729 -729: Fang Lin鈥檚 Crisis
鈥淗ahaha! You keep demanding that I commit suicide, but unfortunately, the ones who should be doing so are you two.鈥 Fang Lin didn鈥檛 hesitate to speak, after all, having gotten this far, he certainly wouldn鈥檛 show any courtesy to the Xuan Emperor and the Lord of the Western Guarding Palace.
鈥淪pouting nonsense as death approaches,鈥 the Lord of the Western Guarding Palace uttered indifferently, looking at Fang Lin as if he were a corpse.
The North Town Hall Master glanced at the Lord of the Western Guarding Palace and spoke warningly: 鈥淔ang Lin is my disciple. If you continue to target him, do you wish to battle with me here?鈥
The Lord of the Western Guarding Palace scoffed, 鈥淲hat鈥檚 wrong with a fight? Fang Lin is bound to die today, you can鈥檛 protect him.鈥
It was then that the Giant Turtle Demon King made his voice heard: 鈥淒o you really think I鈥檓 nonexistent?鈥
The Xuan Emperor spoke calmly, 鈥淵ou may be strong, but your lifespan is limited. Are you truly willing to wage a war with us for Fang Lin?鈥
...
The Giant Turtle Demon King burst into laughter, 鈥淴uan Emperor, you think too highly of yourself. Do you really believe that my limited lifespan would prevent me from exerting my full strength?鈥
Just as his words fell, a terrifying aura spread from the Giant Turtle Demon King. It made everyone, from the Xuan Emperor to the Lord of the Western Guarding Palace, and from Chen Yongnian to the North Town Hall Master feel a tightening in their bodies. The immense pressure it conveyed manifested in their rapidly changing expressions.
鈥淵ou people are such a joke. With so little power, you put on airs here, acting as though you鈥檙e something special. I鈥檝e met so many powerful beings who could trample on any of you with ease,鈥 the Giant Turtle Demon King chimed in, his voice filled with mockery.
The Xuan Emperor and the Lord of the Western Guarding Palace couldn鈥檛 hide their shock. The overwhelming aura emanating from the Giant Turtle Demon King was so potent that it left them gasping for breath while their hearts filled with apprehensive awe.
At that moment, the Xuan Emperor summoned the Ancient Lamp of Flame God once again, and the Lord of the Western Guarding Palace displayed a treasured item, both appearing to be extremely guarded.
鈥淟u Feng, dare to battle me!鈥 The Lord of the North Town Hall bellowed, his gaze zeroed in on Lu Feng, the Lord of the Western Guarding Palace.
Lu Feng let out a cold snort, his face defiant as he clashed with the Lord of the North Town Hall.
潣梆潣佛潡答潣?co
The clash between the two Hall masters was incredibly intense. Both of them had reached the state of the Spirit Bone, and had nearly equal strength. It was difficult for either to gain the upper hand without invoking forbidden measures.
鈥淵our Majesty, perhaps it鈥檚 best we step back.鈥 Chen Yongnian advised the Xuan Emperor.
The Xuan Emperor didn鈥檛 respond, gripping the Ancient Lamp of Flame God in his hand, his gaze never leaving Fang Lin.
The next moment, the Xuan Emperor took action. Transforming into a golden light, he charged directly at Fang Lin, aiming to kill him quickly and deal with the Giant Turtle Demon King later.
Fang Lin was taken aback, his expression growing desperate, yet he was helpless.
Against such a formidable adversary, Fang Lin could do nothing. The disparity was too vast, reaching a point where it was completely irreparable.
鈥淵ou鈥檙e asking for death!鈥 The Giant Turtle Demon King roared, swiping a claw, so massive it resembled a heaven-supporting pillar, towards the Xuan Emperor.
The Xuan Emperor had only one goal 鈥 to kill Fang Lin. He activated the Ancient Lamp of Flame God to counter the Giant Turtle Demon King鈥檚 sweeping claw.
Just as Fang Lin鈥檚 life hung by a thread, suddenly, a gigantic shell flew out from the Giant Turtle Demon King鈥檚 body, completely shielding Fang Lin within.
Boom!!!

A punch from the Xuan Emperor landed directly on the shell, causing the earth to quake and sending a torrent of inner strength radiating in all directions. Several hills were destroyed from the impact.
鈥淗uh?鈥 The Xuan Emperor frowned at the shell. His punch had been unleashed with full strength, yet he wasn鈥檛 able to break the shell or harm Fang Lin, who was protected inside it.
Fang Lin, encased within the shell, was equally surprised. A moment ago, he was near despair, only to find himself shielded by the shell at the last second. The power of the Xuan Emperor鈥檚 punch didn鈥檛 affect him at all.
鈥淭his shell is incredible. What a great armor it would make if I could fashion it into a suit of armor,鈥 Fang Lin remarked.
鈥淵ou impudent child! Dare to covet my shell? Be careful or I鈥檒l kill you myself,鈥 the Giant Turtle Demon King chided with discontent.
Fang Lin responded with an awkward laugh. He was merely thinking out loud, not expecting the old turtle to hear him.
Elsewhere, a fierce battle was underway between the Xuan Emperor and the Giant Turtle Demon King, and another between the Lords of the North and the Western Guarding Palace.
鈥淪hould we鈥 help the Emperor?鈥 a martial artist suggested timidly.
Barely had he finished talking when everyone began staring at him oddly.
鈥淎re you out of your mind? Interfering in a fight of this level is asking to get killed,鈥 responded another martial artist, his tone laced with disdain.
Meanwhile, among the demon beasts, the Silver Fox reappeared. Its eyes were fixed on the Xuan Emperor, or more accurately, on the Ancient Lamp of Flame God in his hand, a hint of unquenchable greed apparent in its gaze.
Roar!
In the next instant, the Silver Fox launched an attack, heading directly towards the Xuan Emperor, to seize the Ancient Lamp of Flame God.
鈥淎 mere split body dares to attack? Seeking death!鈥 The Xuan Emperor was furious and swiftly dealt a punch towards the Silver Fox.
Boom!!!
The Silver Fox screamed, falling due to the force. Despite being a split body and superior to the Demon King, it was no match for a powerful being like the Xuan Emperor, consequently seeming rather weak.
The Giant Turtle Demon King joined the attack, disturbing the Ancient Lamp of Flame God, causing it to sway continuously, and noticeably dimming the flame inside.
Whooshh!!!
Wild flames billowed out, covering the Giant Turtle Demon King.
The Giant Turtle Demon King looked somewhat cautious. It was not afraid of the Ancient Lamp of Flame God but dreaded the flames within the lamp.
Even being a Giant Demon King in the Six Transformations realm, if it was touched by these flames, it would still suffer considerably.
Instantly, the Giant Turtle Demon King let out a long howl, the shell that was sheltering Fang Lin was pulled back and placed in front of itself.
Boom!
Flames met shell, releasing sizzling sounds and causing the sky to light up vividly.
The shell of the Giant Turtle Demon King was extremely hard, a veritable treasure impervious to both water and fire. As potent as the Ancient Lamp of Flame God was, it couldn鈥檛 shatter the shell of the Giant Turtle Demon King in a short time.
Fang Lin felt a bitter sense of helplessness. He was just merely a spectator here watching others decide whether he would live or die.
Just then, Fang Lin was caught entirely off guard. An incredibly threatening feeling suddenly welled up inside him.
鈥淒aring to strike under my watch!鈥 The Giant Turtle Demon King roared furiously, having detected someone trying to harm Fang Lin secretly.
The Xuan Emperor merely smirked. This was his contingency plan- if he couldn鈥檛 kill Fang Lin himself, he would have someone else do so.
An unexpected black shadow struck swiftly, its speed too fast and its attack too ruthless, aiming directly at Fang Lin鈥檚 life.
