When Yue Tu landed, he couldn't help looking at his arm in shock.
Even if he had been caught off guard, he was still a Nascent Soul Realm. How could the attacks from someone in the Child Soul Realm possibly hurt him?
He didn't believe that someone like Lin Fan who was in the Child Soul Realm could tame beasts beyond the Child Soul Realm, so he immediately discredited that one possibility.
It was just too bad that facts slapped him in the face.
Since he had already launched his sneak attack, there was no need for his beast to hide itself anymore.
The bear with rocks on its back came out of the ground and faced Yue Tu and Liao Ding.
The moment that they saw this bear appear, they both revealed shocked expressions since they could feel the aura coming from the bear. This was the aura of the Nascent Soul Realm!
Lin Fan was actually able to control a Nascent Soul Realm beast, it was no wonder Yue Tu had been injured.
After seeing this bear appear, Yue Tu couldn't help feeling worried. Nothing that he had tried was working and unless he started using his trump cards, he was uncertain if he could even hurt Lin Fan. Not to mention that the orders were to capture Lin Fan and to avoid hurting him badly.
So it wasn't as if Yue Tu could go all out against Lin Fan.
He started regretting not letting Liao Ding help earlier, but it was too late for that.
After thinking for a bit, Yue Tu suddenly stabbed his sword into the ground. Once the sword stabbed into the ground, there were several stone pillars that came out of the ground all around Lin Fan.
It was clear by how they were distributed that they had taken the form of an array, but as for the effect of the array…
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the pillars that had suddenly surrounded him. He tried to figure out the effects of this array based on the life energy that was flowing through it, but he found that he couldn't find a single array that was similar to this array in his memories.
Even with all the arrays that he had learned in that trial space, there wasn't one that was like this.
But of course, that wasn't strange since Lin Fan didn't have time to learn every array in the world and this was just a Soul Realm array, so it was unlikely that Lin Fan would have studied many of these.
However, even after this array appeared around him, Lin Fan didn't panic at all. Instead, he revealed a faint smile.
After the pillars of stone appeared around him, they started trembling, causing the ground around them to tremble. Then slowly, but surely, the rocks on the ground started rolling towards the pillars of stone.
It was almost as if there was some kind of attraction force inside of the pillars that were pulling these rocks in.
Once a decent number of rocks had gathered around each of the stone pillars, the stone pillars suddenly lit up as they launched the rocks gathered into the air. As soon as they were launched into the air, the rocks came together to form another barrier around Lin Fan.
"Rock Tomb." Yue Tu said in a low voice.
This was one of his special techniques, Rock Tomb. It was a two part technique, with the first part being forming a tomb of rocks to restrain the enemy.
He just hoped that he wouldn't be forced to use the second part because the second part was the part where he used those rocks to destroy the enemy. If he were to use it, it was unlikely that Lin Fan would survive under this full force attack, even if he did tame a Nascent Soul Realm beast.
So he hoped that he could force Lin Fan to submit under the restraining array of the Rock Tomb.
After this rock barrier was formed around Lin Fan, Yue Tu lowered his sword and said, "Child, give up now. You can't break out of my…"
But before he could finish speaking, there was a burst of energy that suddenly smashed through his rock wall.
It had come from the barrier that Lin Fan's pet had formed.
While Yue Tu had been gathering rocks for his Rock Tomb attack, Lin Fan hadn't been idle. He had his pets gather life energy from around and concentrated that life energy into a single attack.
Once the rock wall had formed, the barrier had given off a single flash before releasing a beam of five coloured light. That beam of five coloured light was an attack that was formed from five different laws, so there wasn't a single moment of delay as it smashed right through the rock wall that Yue Tu had set up.
Yue Tu could only look on at the beam of light in shock, but he wasn't in a daze for long since that beam of light was aimed right at him.
Yue Tu immediately raised his sword and gathered his life energy together in it to form a defensive barrier. At the same time, the rock turtle behind him released seismic waves which slammed into the five coloured beam of light, slowing it down.
When the five coloured beam of light hit Yue Tu's sword, he couldn't help knitting his brows as he stood there in balance with it. But a few seconds later, he was slowly being pushed back by that beam of light.
However, in the end, Yue Tu was able to slash up with his sword and he sent that beam of light into the air where it exploded.
Yue Tu couldn't help turning back to Lin Fan with a look of shock.
He could see the beasts that formed this array and he could tell from their auras that they were only in the Child Soul Realm. But the array that Lin Fan had them take was strong enough to injure a Nascent Soul Realm Expert like him…
Yes, he had been injured when he had tried to block that beam of light just now. Even with his full force and his pet helping him, he had suffered light injuries to redirect that beam of light into the sky.
It seemed like the backing behind Lin Fan wasn't simple, but of course it wouldn't be if he dared to mess with this wedding…
Yue Tu could not maintain his pride any longer. He knew that if he was to force himself into fighting Lin Fan like this, he would eventually end up injured or he would be forced into fighting for real and would injure Lin Fan, going against Bing Jun's orders.
It was clear which option was worse for him.
Since he had no other choice, Yue Tu said, "Old Liao, give me a hand. It seems like he's much more troublesome to deal with than I thought."
Liao Ding normally would have replied with disdain when he heard this kind of request from Yue Tu, but this time, he went against his normal character to say, "Alright."
It was just a simple answer, there wasn't anything else that was said.
That was testament to the pressure that Liao Ding felt from Lin Fan.
If he had been in Yue Tu's position, he would have suffered from the same problems.
It wasn't that the two of them couldn't kill Lin Fan if they were fighting for real, but they had their orders to capture Lin Fan which made it much harder.
When Lin Fan saw this, he didn't forget to add, "I already said that I didn't mind if you come all at once, why did you wait until now?"
There was a vein that popped out on Liao Ding's forehead, but he took a deep breath and calmed himself.
Right now he was in front of Bing Jun and he had received an important mission, it wasn't time to let his emotions get the best of him.
So he gave a nod to Liao Ding before jumping out with his weapon in hand.
With a single slash of his sabre, there were countless blades of wind that appeared around him that fell down onto the barrier around Lin Fan.
Without anyone noticing, there had been a hawk that had appeared on his shoulder that was also flapping its wings, sending out wind blades along with his slash.
These blades of wind assaulted the barrier Lin Fan's pets created, but they weren't able to pierce through them. However, the flickering that the barrier created with each blade of wind hitting it was getting weaker.
It seemed like these blades of wind would slowly wear down the barrier.
However, even when he saw this, Lin Fan wasn't worried at all as he turned his gaze to Yue Tu, waiting for him to act.
Seeing that Liao Ding had already flown out, Yue Tu started doing the same thing as before. He stabbed his sword into the ground and created the stone pillars again that started drawing rocks to it.
But instead of sending those rocks into the sky, he seemed like he was waiting.
He was waiting for Liao Ding's blades of wind to wear down Lin Fan's barrier so that he could trap him with the Rock Tomb again.
Lin Fan naturally could see what they were planning, but he just revealed a smile as he murmured to himself, "It's time."
