The Six Immortals Chapter 28

The Trio’s Sneak Attack

The desolate path that Bi Fan was now on had no trace of habitation.

Once he had managed to walk a distance, he realized that there were three young men who had decided to follow in his path. The three of them were dressed rather nicely.

All three of them were fairly strong individually, and much stronger than Bi Fan.

Since the area was uninhabited, the three quickened up their pace and were able to outflank and intercept Bi Fan very quickly.

“Boy, are you Bi Fan?” A white-faced man asked.

Bi Fan responded in a cold tone: “That’s correct. I’m Bi Fan, and you must be street performers.”

Bi Fan knew that he was in trouble again.

Two of the three men were in ‘Brave’ layer and the other one was at least at the peak of ‘inner organs’.

Even his yesterday’s opponent was no match for their combined strength.

He was very lucky to have gotten away with his yesterday’s encounter, and today, the odds were stacked even higher against him.

“You’ve got guts!” One of the three said. The trio was aware that Bi Fan is in the ‘inner breath’ layer and they simultaneously, in a no nonsense fas.h.i.+on prepared to charge Bi Fan.

Bi Fan responded to their actions accordingly, without fear.

With his light-ray double-edged sword, Bi Fan employed the ‘Fufeng double-edged sword’ technique to a formidable effect, thanks to the learning that Mo Nan’s display had imparted.

His light-ray sword glittered like a shooting star, cutting through time and s.p.a.ce. He started attacking all three of them at the same time, his body moving as fast as lightening and somehow seemed to have gained an upper hand by surprise.

Bi Fan’s sword play was surprisingly difficult to deal with, and the three men circled back to take a stand together.

The three hadn’t expected much of Bi Fan and were taken by surprise due to Bi Fan proficiency, only managing to defend Bi Fan’s attacks.

“Ah!… Ah!…” The three of them snarled repeatedly as he attacked them.

“Bi Fan, you will never be able to beat us, it’s not possible. You’re going to die. Your strength is no match for ours.”

Then, the three of them attack simultaneously, with power and speed to get themselves of their current predicament.

Out of the three, one took out a double-edged sword; another employed a knife and third one attacked using his bare hands, using boxing techniques.

The three of them had been fighting together as a team for some time, made obvious by their perfectly synchronized attacks.

Bi Fan immediately started falling back, using ‘Fufeng double-edged sword’ technique and every now and then resorting to boxing to defend himself.

Bi Fan was willing to employ any and all means to confront his enemies.

Even though Bi Fan had become a lot more proficient with his combat skill after yesterday’s fight, today he was struggling to cope up.

The fierce attacks of his opponents had put Bi Fan under a lot of pressure.

The tremendous intensity of the fight was making in difficult for Bi Fan to find any room to breathe, and as the fight wore on, Bi Fan’s body started tiring and his movements became slower.

“I cannot lose! I cannot die! ….” Bi Fan said to himself, in an attempt to pump up his game, as his perseverance still persisted in his heart.

Soon, Bi Fan had sustained several injuries, but thanks to the ‘dance of mist’ footwork, he had managed to avoid any severe damage to his vital body parts.

“ARGHHHH!” Bi Fan roared, trying to boost his morale, and began attacking in a frenzied fas.h.i.+on.

Bi Fan was giving it his all, and even though his three opponents were stronger, they were somewhat timid.

As soon as Bi Fan started attacking with ‘the immortal finger’ attack, the three of them started back up a bit, visibly afraid to confront him.

‘Rainy-fly sword’! ‘Prancing tiger’! ‘The immortal finger’

Bi Fan started attacking with his tricks, but targeting only person, he needed to find a scapegoat.

Bi Fan concentrated his fire on the weakest of his opponents, forcing the man to constantly retreat and finally managed to connect ‘the immortal finger’, leaving his target bleeding and hurt.

“Boy! You dare to hurt our brother, now you’re dead!” The other two furiously launched attacks at Bi Fan.

“Boom!” Bi Fan somehow managed to evade the sword, but was. .h.i.t by the strong display of boxing.

His counterpart’s boxing was formidable.

Bi Fan flew out, as blood sprayed out of his body. The blood-spray filled the air around him, creating a grossly spectacular image.

The blood meant that Bi Fan had seriously injured a vital organ.

Bi Fan quickly started feeding aura into his body to restore his damaged body parts. The restoration started happening faster than expected and it seemed that his body had become a lot stronger all of a sudden.

In an instant his body was healed to great extent, leaving Bi Fan surprised, he thought to himself: “Seems like I have broken into the ‘inner organs’ layer, very timely at that.”

Of course, Bi Fan didn’t reflect this on his face; he continued to carry a seriously injured look on his face, ready to pounce his unsuspecting opponents at the opportune moment.

Unlike the devil’s disciple, Bi Fan had no idea as to who had sent these men after him.

Bi Fan hadn’t thought of asking yet, an enemy is an enemy. It was a matter of life and death and he couldn’t afford even the slightest of mistakes.

“Boy! We’ll give us this. You’re strong. But you’ve managed to offend people you should not have offended.” The man who had delivered the hit said, as he slowly walked towards Bi Fan.

Bi Fan still carried to look of an injured man on his face, not revealing his state to his opponents as he was preparing to sneak a surprise attack.

Although the men hadn’t revealed their benefactor, Bi Fan had already guessed that he wasn’t the same one as the other day’s.

The only man that Bi Fan knew he had offended was Lou Sheng.

Even though Lou Sheng had agreed to fight him at the tournament, in front of everyone the following year, it seemed that he had still sent an ambush party to kill BI Fan.

It seems that Bi Fan had managed to anger Lou Sheng a lot more than he had initially antic.i.p.ated.

His opponent’s fiercely playful eyes looked at the ground where Bi Fan lay, occasionally vomiting a little blood, trying to cover up his surprise attack.

Bi Fan was confident that with the increase in his strength, he will be able to at least seriously injure his opponent. However, in his previous state, when the difference in their strengths was two layers, his attack might have gone in vain.

“Boy! I’m going to beat you till you can’t feel any pain anymore!”

As the man reached within one meter, which was Bi Fan’s attacking range, he slowly raised his hand, ready to attack.

‘The immortal finger!’

Bi Fan put all his strength into this surprise attack.

“Bang!”

His strong attack took his enemy by surprise and poked a small and b.l.o.o.d.y hole in the man’s throat and the man fell down to the ground.

“You…you…. ” he put his hand over his neck, as blood lashed out. His eyes were full of remorse and reflected an endless sea of resentment.

Eventually he gave in to the pain and died, but his eyes still remained open, staring at the endless sky.

“Brother! Brother!……”

The other two men cried out in pain, their eyes red with rage.

“Bi Fan, you will pay for this with your life!” The man in ‘brave’ layer said in anger.

He threw himself at Bi Fan, his double-edged sword, aimed straight at Bi Fan’s face.

“You still think I’m afraid of you!” Bi Fan speedily got up and charged at him opponent with his sword.

Two men collided with each other, their strengths equally matched.

Bi Fan’s strength had increased a lot; his attacks were a lot stronger now, almost twice in strength.

As for the other man, he had sustained several injuries earlier, and was tending to his wounds and hence was in no shape to a.s.sist his companion.

“Brother, you must kill this guy to avenge our brother!” He roared to cheer his companion.

Bi Fan suddenly withdrew back, away from his opponent and started circling him, with his arms spread open.

“Divine essence seals! a.s.sist my body!”

Bi Fan made use of divine essence seals and charged his opponent once again.

Bi Fan attacked his opponent in a brave move, and with the speed provided by the essence seals, started stifling his opponent very quickly.
