CHAPTER 640: CHAPTER 639: THE SECRET OF LIFE DIVINE MOUNTAIN

A field of corpses stirred some emotions in Lin Fan’s heart.

"If I didn’t know the Dragon Subduing Skill, if I couldn’t control those powerful Holy Beasts, then it would be me lying here now, not these guys!" Lin Fan thought to himself.

"This world is just so cruel; inherently disliking killing, yet having to kill everywhere, it’s really helpless!"

Lin Fan eventually shook his head.

"Well then, I might as well sit here and cultivate, waiting for the opening of the Life Divine Mountain channel!"

Lin Fan quickly sat down on the ground, preparing to cultivate.

But...

In the next moment, Lin Fan suddenly thought of something; he quickly stood up, went to a relatively secluded place to sit down, and set up a Concealing Array around him.

With the Concealing Array, even if someone passed by here, under normal circumstances, they would not be able to find Lin Fan.

Not long after Lin Fan began cultivating, dozens of people arrived at this place.

These people were wearing ragged clothes, utterly disheveled, and even had a deep stench on them, each looking wild and unkempt, almost like savages.

However...

Despite their appearance, these people were very famous throughout the Holy Soul Domain.

They all shared one name: Ascetics!

They had only one goal, to constantly torment themselves, enhancing their Cultivation through self-torment, their principle being to endure all the hardships in the world, cultivate all the Divine Skills.

Most of the Ascetics were incredibly powerful.

If they were willing to engage with the world, any Ascetic who stepped forward would be a first-class expert. However, they did not intend to engage; their purpose was solely cultivation; nothing else could pique their interest.

"Ah?"

After these Ascetics arrived here, they quickly noticed the corpses on the ground.

An Ascetic surprisingly said, "There are so many corpses here? This is really unexpected, not knowing how these corpses came to be here!"

Another Ascetic commented, "A moment ago, I carefully investigated, and it seems these corpses of Ascetics were torn apart by a Holy Beast!"

"What? Do you mean... a Holy Beast passed through here?"

"Yes, don’t forget, I have a considerable research on Holy Beasts, so I’m one hundred percent certain that a Holy Beast has indeed passed by here!"

"Unexpectedly, a Holy Beast passed through here? It seems that the Holy Beasts also know the secret of the Life Divine Mountain?"

"Forget it, let’s just cultivate here, waiting for the night of the full moon when Life Divine Mountain opens!"

...

Naturally, Lin Fan heard all that the Ascetics said.

Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel puzzled in his heart. The secrets of the Life Divine Mountain?

What secrets does the Life Divine Mountain hold?

Speaking of which, if possible, Lin Fan really wanted to rush out and ask these Ascetics what secrets the Life Divine Mountain held.

But in the end, Lin Fan held back and didn’t go out.

Because Lin Fan was well aware that these Ascetics had very peculiar temperaments, and they didn’t care for anyone apart from their own Ascetic kind.

If he really went out to ask them now, not only would they not answer him, but they might even join forces to kill him.

"What secrets does the Life Divine Mountain hold? It seems I have to find out for myself!" Lin Fan thought to himself.

This time, Lin Fan had made up his mind; no matter what the secrets of the Life Divine Mountain were, he had to discover them.

At the same time, Lin Fan also clearly understood that the secrets on Life Divine Mountain were definitely extraordinary; otherwise, it wouldn’t have attracted so many Ascetics.

Thus, Lin Fan cultivated within the Concealing Array.

While those Ascetics cultivated outside.

Those ascetics did not discover Lin Fan.

Finally, it was the night of the full moon.

When the moon was right overhead, a bright moonlight bathed the Life Divine Mountain.

The next moment, a strange scene emerged; countless life forces converged, extending towards this side, forming a bridge.

That was the Life Bridge!

The Life Bridge quietly hovered in the starry sky, giving off a sacred feeling.

One by one, the ascetics stood up, their faces filled with immense excitement.

"Let’s go, enter the Life Divine Mountain!"

After one of the ascetics shouted lightly, he quickly rushed onto the Life Bridge.

The other ascetics also quickly followed into the Life Divine Mountain, soon disappearing from sight.

At this time, Lin Fan finally emerged from the Concealing Array, and without hesitation, he also headed towards the Life Bridge, which was the only way to enter the Life Divine Mountain.

However...

The moment Lin Fan stepped onto the Life Bridge, his face suddenly changed drastically.

Because, just in an instant, Lin Fan was shocked to discover that a very dangerous aura had completely locked onto him.

"Bad!"

Lin Fan wanted to increase his speed.

But, it was already too late.

Suddenly, four assassins from the Hell Organization appeared, coming from four directions, their Sword Light fiercely slashing towards Lin Fan.

It turned out that these four assassins from the Hell Organization had always been hidden in the dark.

They knew Lin Fan would definitely appear, so after waiting for him, they directly used their deadly moves, aiming to kill Lin Fan in one fell swoop.

While Lin Fan was in the Concealing Array, his attention was all on the ascetics around him, and he had not noticed these assassins.

In this instant, Lin Fan felt as if he was placed into Shura Hell.

The swirling Sword Qi directly sealed him off.

Now, Lin Fan’s situation was desperately critical, with no place to hide, no way to escape...

"Could it be that I really have to die here?"

In this moment, Lin Fan’s eyes had already become bloodshot.

At the same time, Lin Fan also felt deep regret in his heart.

Regretting that he had been too careless earlier—if he had been more cautious at that time and noticed the assassins from the Hell Organization earlier, he wouldn’t be so passive now.

"No!"

The next moment, Lin Fan gritted his teeth in his mind: "No matter what, I can’t die here, I can’t..."

Without any hesitation, a powerful life energy burst forth from Lin Fan.

The Life Fire was quickly ignited...

The Heaven Punishment Divine Spear had already appeared in Lin Fan’s hand.

All the energy was infused by Lin Fan into the Heaven Punishment Divine Spear.

Swoosh...

Lin Fan threw the Heaven Punishment Divine Spear.

Bang...

The next moment, the Heaven Punishment Divine Spear exploded, directly smashing the assassin from the Hell Organization in front of him into pieces.
