As Lin Fan felt the demonic energy flowing through him, there was a feeling that also filled his heart.
It was as if he wanted to slaughter.
There was this feeling, or rather it was better to call it a lust for blood that filled him. It made him want to attack the elders that were around him and rip them piece by piece with his bare hands.
But he was able to hold himself back in the end.
Lin Fan knew that if it wasn’t for the connection with the Pet Storage Space helping him refine this demonic energy, he wouldn’t have been able to resist the temptation that it gave him. He wouldn’t have been able to resist the urges that filled him and he might have even fallen prey to the Lord of Flies.
The demon of the statue remained silent as he wasn’t sure what was happening, but he could feel that his connection with the demonic energy that he put into Lin Fan to corrupt him became weaker.
He knew that at this rate, it would only be a matter of time before he completely lost control of that energy.
But that shocked the Lord of Flies even more since this special demonic energy was power that came from his main body.
This was a power that was comparable to the gods, which was not something that a mortal cultivator should have been capable of resisting. The fact that this was currently happening was just too unbelievable to him and he really wanted to complain about whatever was happening.
Only even if he wanted to complain, it wasn’t as if he knew who to complain to.
He had no idea what this phenomenon even was, let alone knowing what was causing it.
So the Lord of Flies really was helpless in this matter.
He thought that he would be able to control the demonic energy again if he put a little more effort into it, which was why a few more flies landed on Lin Fan’s back and started injecting power into him.
It was just that he found that the more power that he tried to put into Lin Fan’s body, the more power was being drained from him.
It was almost as if he was trying to throw demonic energy into a bottomless void.
It was almost as if he couldn’t do anything no matter how he tried.
The Lord of Flies wasn’t wishy washy, he was someone that had been able to rise up from the masses of the demon race and reach the position that he currently was in. He was not someone that would hesitate when he knew that something was impossible.
As such…
“Kill him now.”
The elders were all taken aback when they heard this order from their lord.
The last order that they received was to let the lord deal with Lin Fan, but now their lord was telling them to actually kill Lin Fan. They really couldn’t adapt to this fast enough, so they had no idea what to say.
But then the Lord of Flies said, “Are you idiots? Do it now while he’s still being restrained by my power!”
Once the Lord of Flies gave this order, the demonic cultivators didn’t dare hesitate for another second.
Though there were a few doubts that were still in their mind.
After all, if the lord wanted him dead, why didn’t he just use his own power to kill him?
The lord’s demonic energy should be inside of Lin Fan’s body, so it should be easy for him to kill Lin Fan with this demonic energy if he wanted to.
It really didn’t make sense why he would want them to land the finishing blow.
What they didn’t know was that the Lord of Flies’ demonic energy was being drained away by Lin Fan. Even if he wanted to hurt Lin Fan with that demonic energy, he wasn’t able to do so since it was being drained by Lin Fan.
So the only thing that he could do was have these demonic cultivators kill Lin Fan.
After all, it wasn’t as he could just descend with his main body and attack Lin Fan.
There would be too many problems in trying to do that.
After the elders snapped out of their daze, all of them gathered all of their spiritual energy and prepared to launch their strongest attacks to deal with Lin Fan. All of them took the order that the lord gave them seriously and didn’t dare slack.
It wasn’t just that they cared very much about the order, they also saw this as an opportunity.
If they were able to complete this order, then they would have a chance to curry favour with the lord.
If they could get in the lord’s good graces, there was no telling what kind of benefits he would give them.
So of course they did what they could to obtain this.
It was just that none of them were destined to succeed.
Lin Fan already knew what they were planning to do and he just simply raised his hand, which caused the Clear Water barrier to appear. Though it didn’t seem to be as strong as it was before.
The demonic energy was still restraining him to a certain extent, which made it hard for him to use his full power.
But he was still more than capable of using just enough power to deal with these demonic cultivators.
They didn’t stand a chance against the Clear Water barrier that he raised.
All of their attacks seemed like it was swallowed by the Clear Water barrier when it hit it.
It seemed like not a single one of these attacks would be able to break through the Clear Water barrier with the effect that they were having.
Though unlike before, the Clear Water barrier had ripples in them for those that had sharp enough eyes to see. It was clear that the Clear Water barrier wasn’t as strong as it was before.
Unfortunately for the demonic cultivators, they didn’t get another chance to attack.
That was because Lin Fan had gained decent enough control of the demonic energy that he was finally able to use it. He gathered that demonic energy from the Lord of Flies inside of him and then said, “Kneel.”
It was just a single word, but the compulsion that was in his voice was anything but normal.
As soon as he said this word, the demonic cultivators felt this strange compelling force come over them. Even though they wanted to resist, they found that it was hard for them to resist this power.
It was as if there was something that was beyond them that was forcing them to bend their knees.
All of the elders wanted to turn to look at the statue, but the compulsion force stopped them from doing that. All they could do was kneel there with their heads down, even though they wanted to do anything.
They found that they weren’t even able to say a single thing.
All they could do was kneel there in front of Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked at them and he couldn’t help being impressed by the power that was contained within the power of the Lord of Flies. He was amazed that it was able to force this kind of reaction from the demonic cultivators.
“It’s very simple, the strong can command the weak. That’s how it goes for us demons.”
Lin Fan was even more surprised to hear these words come from the statue.
He didn’t think that the Lord of Flies would be able to see through him that easily…
But since the Lord of Flies did, that meant that it was easy for him to do what he needed to do next.
As long as this statue was here, he believed that it would only be a matter of time before the Lord of Flies did something else. The only way to ensure that the Lord of Flies wouldn’t have any more power was to destroy the statue completely.
That was why he ignored the demonic cultivators that were still kneeling and headed towards the statue that was there.
“You still have a chance to make up for your mistake. As long as you become my follower, I will forgive the things that you’ve done and give you power that you couldn’t dream of.”
“Why would I need it?” Lin Fan said in a cold voice.
“Ha, ha, ha, the world isn’t as simple as you think. Just because I’m a demon, that doesn’t mean that this power is bad. Any power that you get is still power that is yours and you should know that only power is truth in this world.” The way that the Lord of Flies said this was almost as if it was trying to convince him to spare him, but there was still the pride that came from a higher tier demon in that voice.
In the end, the Lord of Flies wasn’t able to convince Lin Fan.
Lin Fan raised his palm and gathered the power that he just obtained.
He was using the power of the Lord of Flies against the statue of the Lord of Flies.
But at the same time, that palm of his also contained the power of his physique which tore apart space.
With this, it was enough to shatter the statue of this elder demon.
Only when the statue shattered, the voice of the Lord of Flies said, “I will remember this.”
There were no other emotions in this voice, there was only a calm determination.
But that didn’t matter to Lin Fan since he had already made up his mind about this Lord of Flies.
Instead, what he paid attention to were the three fragments that appeared after he shattered the statue.
