Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1925 - 1907: Why Not Show Yourself?

"Trust Hall’s Three-Eyed requests an audience with the Master."

The voice trembled with fear, for he was utterly terrified of the masked master. A mere wave of his hand could obliterate someone at the Human Immortal Realm Peak. Fang Yan’s power was so uncanny, he truly couldn’t make the decision himself. He desperately hoped no more unexpected events would occur, because he didn’t want to die. After speaking, he stood there like a quivering quail, anxiously waiting for the masked man to appear.

A stick of incense worth of time passed in the blink of an eye, and suddenly the main door in front of him opened. The masked man emerged, looking at Three-Eyed kneeling on the ground, and asked, "What is the matter?"

"Reporting to the Master, Trust Hall has investigated the situation regarding Fang Yan, and it is vastly different from before. I dare not make a decision without your approval, Master." After speaking, he immediately presented the report on Fang Yan. This was all he could do; he truly dared not make any decisions beyond this.

"You have to ask me about this kind of matter?" The masked man replied coldly when he heard Three-Eyed say this. If even such matters required his decision, what good were these useless subordinates!

"Reporting to the Master, it is not that this small one is ineffective, but rather that Fang Yan’s situation is too peculiar. You would understand from reading this latest intelligence report." Hearing the masked man’s icy tone, Three-Eyed began to shiver, and shakily handed over the intelligence report with both hands, praying fervently that the master wouldn’t get angry—he really didn’t want to die...

The masked man, upon hearing Three-Eyed’s words, became curious about what he had just said. With a wave of his hand, the intelligence report flew from Three-Eyed’s hands into his own, and he began to examine it. He was eager to see what was so different about this Fang Yan!

However, upon reading the report’s contents, the masked man was also taken aback. The report detailed many aspects of Fang Yan’s affairs, and in great detail. What shocked him the most was the last point: Fang Yan, with only the strength of someone at the initial stage of the Human Immortal Realm, forced the Taoist Fang Pu of the Divine Sword Sect to self-destruct. Even he could not quite fathom such an occurrence.

It must be known that a Taoist is not an ordinary person; they are the successors nurtured by a sect, all ready to replace the Sect Master or Elders. Each one is a genius among geniuses, and for Fang Yan to force one to self-destruct demonstrates that Fang Yan’s true combat strength was far from simple. Even a typical Human Immortal Realm Peak adept might not necessarily force such a Taoist as Fang Pu to death, yet Fang Yan accomplished this, which clearly demonstrated something significant.

Now, he finally understood why Three-Eyed had specifically come to report this matter to him. It was indeed beyond Three-Eyed’s control. To deal with Fang Yan, it was conservatively estimated that no Human Immortal Realm assassins could kill Fang Yan, leaving only the Earth Immortal Realm assassins to carry out the task.

After a brief contemplation, the masked man spoke to Three-Eyed, "For the assassination of Fang Yan, pass on my orders to Tian Lang to complete this task."

After speaking, the masked man instantly vanished from where he stood, and without knowing exactly when, the door closed behind him as well, leaving Three-Eyed standing there alone. However, by this time, Three-Eyed’s back was already soaked with sweat; the pressure of facing the masked man, their master, was just too immense, and he could be killed by the masked man at any unpredictable moment.

Breathing a sigh of relief, he immediately went to find Tian Lang as instructed. Tian Lang was an assassin of the initial Earth Immortal Realm and was also considered one of the relatively important assassins within Hidden Kill. With such an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse taking action, Fang Yan was certainly doomed this time, as the difference between the Human Immortal Realm and Earth Immortal Realm was indeed worlds apart...

Time shifted, and a month passed. Qin Kun and Wu Shan also reached the peak of the Heaven Flipping Realm, encountering bottlenecks. Seeing this situation, the two stopped the endless cultivation and left the cave mansion to find Fang Yan.

Upon seeing them, Fang Yan immediately understood the situation and without saying much, took the two over a thousand miles away from the sect to a secluded valley. It was just a very brief matter, not requiring a notice to the sect. However, none of the three noticed the hidden figure lurking on a large tree outside the sect, with eyes full of murderous intent...

After the three entered the valley, surveying the surroundings, Fang Yan nodded, then said to Qin Kun and Wu Shan, "The two of you don’t need to come one by one; just come together."

With that said, he tossed a bottle to each of them. Without feeling anything, each of them had a Spirit Qi Seed planted within their bodies. He then motioned for them to occupy separate peaks to avoid interfering with each other during the breakthrough. Naturally, Fang Yan and Wu Shan did not object and immediately followed Fang Yan’s instructions, heading to the mountain peaks. They immediately consumed the elixirs and prepared to break through.

As the medicinal power dissolved, an overwhelming force surged through their meridians, roaring as it mixed with their respective gang qi, relentlessly impacting that excessively resilient bottleneck...

Watching them enter the state, Fang Yan nodded and said nothing, hovering in mid-air to protect them. According to his original intention, he was not prepared to allow the two to break through now; if their cultivation was suppressed for a while, it would be better for their development in the future. But he no longer had the luxury of time, hence the necessity for the breakthrough.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed, and seeing that the two still hadn’t broken through, Fang Yan frowned, thinking to himself that it was indeed inadequate—it was happening just as he had feared. The two’s growth was too rapid, and their foundation too unstable. If they were stuck at the bottleneck for a while, the breakthrough wouldn’t be this challenging.

However, Fang Yan was left with no choice but to wait here for the two to make their breakthrough, so he could take them back to the sect. Yet, Fang Yan never expected a sky-shattering killing intent to suddenly emerge, followed by a beam of cold light shooting towards him at an incredibly terrifying speed. In the blink of an eye, it was right before him.

"Hoo..."

A faint whistle emerged in the air. Fang Yan immediately knew things were not right. Without a moment to think, he swiftly dodged. To avoid this attack, Fang Yan exerted every bit of his strength, activating all acceleration secret techniques in an instant. He narrowly dodged the attack by a hair’s breadth; had he been a fraction slower, the cold light would have struck him.

Raising his gaze toward the receding cold light, he furrowed his brows. It was a crescent-shaped gang qi, only a few meters wide. Yet this crescent-shaped gang qi was different from ordinary gang qi; it resembled something forged from lightning, appearing tiny! What made him even more uneasy was the speed of that attack. If he hadn’t reacted quickly, he might have been struck by that crescent, which would likely result in his death!

Assassination!

At this moment, Fang Yan realized what was happening, and his eyes emitted a murderous intent. His divine sense immediately expanded, and he quickly located the target in the nearby forest below. Without hesitation, he raised his hand and sent out a fist aura. The terrifying light swiftly transformed into a shocking dragon, spanning fifty to sixty meters, shooting towards the target from above.

"Roar!"

The dragon-shaped fist aura roared as it shot directly towards the spot, moving at an incomparable speed, like a white light, hitting the target in a blink.

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion resonated, as if the heavens and earth were collapsing. In an instant, where the dragon-shaped gang qi struck, a terrifying shockwave erupted, covering a range of several miles, turning all grass and trees within its path into dust instantaneously, even scraping off a layer of the ground. The struck ground now bore an immense crater, spanning two to three meters in diameter!

Of course, such an event affected Qin Kun and Wu Shan; they were in the midst of a breakthrough. They never expected anything to happen on Fang Yan’s side, and they were about to forcibly halt their bottleneck breakthrough to assist Fang Yan with the crisis. However, before they could act, they received a transmission from Fang Yan.

"You two don’t need to worry about anything. I’m perfectly fine. Don’t forget, I have the Redflame Dragon Wolf Beast!"

The voice reverberated in their hearts, instantly alleviating their anxiety. After all, the Redflame Dragon Wolf Beast was a demon venerable. Paired with the all-powerful Fang Yan, even if an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse came, they likely wouldn’t stand a chance against Fang Yan. In that case, there was nothing to worry about; obediently following Fang Yan’s instructions to break through to the Human Immortal Realm was the best course of action.

However, letting Fang Yan handle the battle alone was something the two couldn’t allow. But with just Heaven Flipping Realm strength, they couldn’t offer much help to Fang Yan. At this moment, the best solution was to heed Fang Yan’s advice, and once they reached the Human Immortal Realm, they could aid him; they sensed the person attempting to assassinate Fang Yan was no ordinary foe...

Seeing Qin Kun and Wu Shan continue their breakthrough, Fang Yan nodded, relieved that they wouldn’t need to worry. He could focus on confronting the intruder. Scanning the surrounding forest with sharp eyes, Fang Yan was surprised to find no trace of his opponent. Then, he used his divine sense to search, astonishingly finding nothing again, an experience he had never encountered before.

Considering his current divine sense far surpassed his past self, having been tempered by the Soul Melting Flame, now having broken through to the Human Immortal Realm, it was no exaggeration to say his divine sense could cover a distance of a thousand miles. Even when compressing his divine sense to observe tens of miles around, not discovering his opponent indicated a problem.

With a glimmer of cold killing intent, Fang Yan suddenly closed his eyes, starting a meticulous search, determined not to believe someone could completely vanish!

Extending his divine sense from where the cold light had shot, he quickly covered the area spanning more than ten miles. Suddenly, he noticed something odd—a tree’s shadow seemed a little fuller. Smiling coldly, he said to the tree, "Since you’re here to assassinate me, why not show yourself?"

His voice, like a shockwave, instantly surged towards the tree, striking it in a blink. In an instant, all the branches and leaves burst away, leaving only the trunk. Upon the trunk stood a black-clad figure, tall and slender, face obscured by a black cloth, yet notably different for his arms’ unusual length and the two crescent-shaped weapons strapped to his back, undisclosed in purpose.
