Chapter 964 Outer God Fragment
As soon as this voice rang out in Lin Fan's mind, he felt a strong power pressing down on him.
The moment that this power pressed down on him, he felt his consciousness fading away.
He did all that he could do to resist, but this was the power of a god, so it wasn't as if he was a match at all.
In his final moments, he couldn't help wondering why the system had rushed him into absorbing this fragment of the Outer God's power.
It was clear that he wasn't ready for it, but the system had forced him to absorb it.
He had thought that the system would have some method of protecting him, but that didn't seem to be the case.
For the first time, the system was actually harming him…
That was the last thing that Lin Fan thought before he fell unconscious.
The strange voice rang out again, but this time it was muttering as it spoke, "How did this child come here? He shouldn't have been able to make it all the way through all of my servants with his level of power. So how did he make it to my altar?"
There was a spiritual sense that suddenly swept out and entered Lin Fan's mind and body, searching through it.
After a period of silence, there was a trace of hostility that filled the voice as it said, "It's the void laws! It's the damn void laws!"
Slowly, there was anger that filled the voice as it said, "It's the laws of that man! It's the laws of that blasted man!"
There was a wave of energy that swept over Lin Fan again as the rage of this voice reached a peak and it shouted, "If it wasn't for that damn man, then we never would have been defeated! If only I could rip that man to pieces!"
The entire mind space started to shake when exposed to the anger of this voice, but that quickly calmed down.
That voice calmed down again as it said, "If this child has the void laws, then that means that this child is one of the descendants or the successor of that man."
The voice turned cold at this point as it said, "Since that's the case, then I can't let this child live. Not only that, I will make sure that this child suffers the worst death possible. I want anything related to that man to suffer!"
There was a surge in the strange power before it suddenly fell down on Lin Fan, but it didn't crush him like before. Instead, it started slowly seeping into Lin Fan, as if it was going to refine him.
The strange energy kept pouring into Lin Fan's body, integrating into him, becoming a part of him.
As this strange energy entered Lin Fan's body, his body started turning darker and darker until it was almost as black as the night.
However, Lin Fan's eyes that had suddenly opened were not as dark as the rest of his body. Instead, his eyes were a strange yellow colour just like that of a cat's, piercing right through the night of his skin.
This was a process of refining Lin Fan's body into the perfect vessel for it, so it took quite a long time.
During this process, Lin Fan's mind that was still unconscious was tortured with countless nightmares.
So while Lin Fan was sleeping, he was currently facing nightmares that slowly destroyed his soul.
Seeing that it was going so well, the voice suddenly rang out again with a chuckle.
But midway through that chuckle, there was a sudden golden glow that came from Lin Fan.
Before the voice could even react, there was a golden barrier that suddenly appeared around him. This golden barrier completely took up the space around Lin Fan, so that he couldn't be seen at all.
At the same time, there were wisps of that strange energy that were forced out of the golden barrier.
The voice couldn't understand what was happening and didn't do anything at first, but then it said, "You want to fight back now? Child, you have already been condemned to a fate of becoming my vessel, there is no way out for you."
After the voice said this, the same pressure as before fell down on Lin Fan.
However, this time, the golden barrier around Lin Fan didn't crumble like Lin Fan's mind had before. It firmly stood under the pressure of the strange energy that fell onto it and even pushed the strange energy back a bit.
When the Outer God fragment saw this, it couldn't help being shocked as it said, "What is this?"
But then it suddenly noticed something and said in an even more shocked voice, "This power…this power…it's that! It's that god!"
The Outer God fragment was about to pull back its power, but before it could, there was a sudden burst of golden light. The golden barrier suddenly pulsed and released a golden shockwave around it, blowing away all the strange energy that had been pressing down on it.
By the end of the shockwave, there was just the Outer God fragment who had been revealed.
It had been cloaking itself in the strange energy so that it couldn't be noticed, but when Lin Fan had started absorbing the strange energy from the corpse, it had snuck into his body and into this mind space. It had been floating just above Lin Fan.
This Outer God fragment looked very strange.
It was like a swirling mass of black energy, but at the same time looked like it was covered in a cloak.
As for the face, it wasn't just a single face.
There were many faces that were showing and all of them were grotesque. They all were screaming, as if they were asking for help, but not a single one of them made a sound.
This was a creature that was truly grotesque and shouldn't have existed.
It was almost as if it was an amalgamation of grudges that had been forced together.
After the true appearance of the Outer God fragment was revealed, the voice said in a panic, "What are you doing here? You were sealed away after the last war! You shouldn't have the power to do anything right now!"
From the golden barrier, there was a golden figure that appeared.
This golden figure was too bright to look at at first, but then as the golden light dimmed, it revealed its appearance.
It looked just like Lin Fan, but it was made of golden energy.
This golden Lin Fan looked at the Outer God fragment and said, "Just like how you've hidden yourself away, I've also hidden a fragment of myself away. I've just regained the power to break through into your hiding spot and today, you will die."
The Outer God fragment was about to panic again, but then it suddenly calmed down as it realized something.
The faces of the Outer God fragment turned to look at golden Lin Fan and with a chuckle, it said, "Ha, you might have scared me earlier with your sudden appearance, but you can't fool me. You said that you're just a fragment of yourself, so that means that you don't have the same power as before."
The faces of the Outer God fragment turned fierce as he said, "Since you're just a fragment, then you won't be able to resist my full power."
With this, it suddenly released a new wave of that strange energy.
The strange energy that it had used before was only a fraction of its power.
It had only used a fraction since it could tell that Lin Fan was weak. Just a fraction was already enough for it to refine Lin Fan and turn him into its vessel.
But now that it was facing this golden Lin Fan, it didn't have the option to hold back.
This god…it was one of the reasons that they had lost back then. Along with that man, they had defeated and sealed all of the Outer Gods.
If it wasn't for the two of them, they wouldn't have been defeated like that.
So now that it was facing this god again, it didn't dare look down on him.
That was just how much fear this god had left on him.
But even with this new wave of strange energy, it wasn't able to suppress the golden barrier of this golden Lin Fan at all. As soon as this wave of strange energy fell down on the golden Lin Fan, it was immediately pushed back by another golden barrier that appeared.
Then with a golden shockwave, the strange energy was blasted to pieces.
At the same time, the Outer God fragment was sent flying away. But before it could fly far, it was suddenly slammed down by a golden fist that had appeared out of nowhere.
The golden Lin Fan jumped forward and landed on the Outer God fragment, slamming his foot down on it and pinning it to the ground.
No matter how the Outer God fragment tried struggling, it wasn't able to break free at all.
The faces of the Outer God fragment could only look up at the golden Lin Fan in shock and fear as it said, "How do you have so much power? You were completely destroyed back in the war!"
The golden Lin Fan gave a snort, but didn't answer the question. Instead, he said, "You will submit now and hand over your essence now or you will be destroyed."
The Outer God fragment couldn't help trembling when it heard this, but it still had a look of defiance.
Seeing this, the golden Lin Fan didn't give it a chance.
Before the Outer God fragment could even say anything, the golden Lin Fan's foot stepped down on it and crushed it.
All that was left was a black ball of energy lying there.
