Lin Fan walked up to the barrier and looked at it for a bit in silence.

Mo Ze Chen made use of this time to say, "Boss, look at what I've found over here."

Lin Fan had been in thought when he heard this, but he still turned to look in Mo Ze Chen's direction since he was curious what Mo Ze Chen had been spending all this time doing.

When he turned over, he saw the pattern with the ten grooves that had two rings currently in it and it didn't take him long to realize what this was.

But when he saw it, he also revealed a faint smile.

Mo Ze Chen felt a cold chill run down his back when he saw this smile, but he didn't waste any time in saying, "Boss, it seems like we have to collect those rings after all. We can't get rid of this barrier without it."

Then he turned to point at the barrier as he said, "You can feel the aura coming from it yourself, it's even stronger than the ghosts we've fought before. I'm sure you're strong, but there's no way for you to break…"

While Mo Ze Chen had been speaking, Lin Fan had already walked over to touch the barrier.

Instead of pushing him away as one would suspect from a barrier set up to protect a place, the moment Lin Fan's hand made contact with the barrier, there was a crack that suddenly appeared.

That crack didn't last long because it quickly spread across the entire barrier, causing it to look like a spider's web before it suddenly shattered to pieces.

The golden glowing pieces scattered all around them as Mo Ze Chen's jaw dropped in shock and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

He couldn't understand what had just happened, but his final hope had been dashed just like this.

No one had been able to see that after the fragments of the golden glowing barrier had disappeared, they turned into an invisible energy that flowed into Lin Fan.

Of course, the energy that flowed into Lin Fan flowed through his body until it gathered at the golden diamond that was on his forehead.

The moment the barrier had shattered, the person inside the room looked up at the door for a bit, but then turned right back to the book that he had been reading.

Lin Fan looked at Mo Ze Chen and seeing that he was still standing there in a daze, he flicked Mo Ze Chen on the forehead.

Mo Ze Chen felt the pain on his forehead and was snapped out of his daze, turning to look at Lin Fan with a shocked gaze as he asked, "Boss, what just happened?"

Lin Fan looked back at him and gave a shrug.

Please, this was what he wanted to know as well, alright?

This had already happened twice to him now and he still didn't know how to explain it.

First it had happened with the golden barrier at the school and now it happened here.

But still, Lin Fan wasn't against this since there was no time for him to begin with.

He wasn't sure how long the other two places would take, but he didn't want to take that risk and wanted to finish what he could as soon as he could.

So without waiting for Mo Ze Chen to say anything else, Lin Fan walked up to the door and slowly pushed it open to reveal a simple looking room inside.

This was a room that was very simply decorated, with just a single desk, a chair, and a bed. For a room that was in a mental hospital, it definitely didn't fit the picture, but that wasn't the first thing that drew Lin Fan's attention.

The first thing that Lin Fan's eyes immediately gravitated towards was the person who had been sitting on the bed reading a book that was in his hand.

When Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen came in, that person didn't react at all as he continued reading the book. However, for Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen, the moment they saw him, they felt that aura of death around him. It was so strong that it even felt like there was a scythe that was placed right at their necks, prepared to take their heads at any time.

Mo Ze Chen's legs immediately crumpled under him and he almost fainted, but there was a faint golden diamond that appeared on his forehead at the last second to give him strength. The moment the golden diamond appeared, there was a warm flow that filled his entire body and gave him a strange strength, but that still wasn't able to fully negate the effects of the aura of death.

In the end Mo Ze Chen was able to slowly inch himself out of the room on his butt. The moment he went out the threshold of the door, he was able to finally breathe normally, but he still looked at the person sitting on the bed with eyes filled with fear.

That kind of aura of death definitely wasn't something that anyone normal could have, that kind of aura of death...Just how much death did he cause or how much death did he come in contact with?

As for Lin Fan who was still in the room, the golden glow didn't appear for him because he had activated something else instead.

The black hole in Lin Fan's dantian was turning at full speed and sucking in the aura of death that was around him as quickly as it could. It slowly swallowed all the aura of death that was around Lin Fan, which helped ease the pressure that fell upon him, but the aura of death that was around him was just too powerful that Lin Fan couldn't completely negate it.

At the very least, Lin Fan had the ability to stand there firmly and breathe as normal, but his body felt very heavy and slow. It was almost as if there were weights tied to chains which were locked to his body.

But as the black hole in Lin Fan's dantian continued to turn, it swallowed more and more of the aura of death that had been surrounding Lin Fan, gathering it inside his dantian.

As more and more of that aura of death was swallowed, it slowly began taking form as a statue inside Lin Fan's dantian. This statue was different from all the other statues that were simple in nature, this was a statue that had multiple skeletons clawing at each other, as if they were trying to escape, but they couldn't. To put it simply, it was a scene of pure despair.

But that didn't matter to Lin Fan since he could feel the new law that had appeared in his dantian. This was a law that was related directly to death and with just a bit of this law, he could easily destroy a person's soul, killing them forever.

At the same time, with the appearance of this new law in his dantian, the two suns in his dantian also began turning and releasing energy. That energy filled his body and refined it again and again. Lin Fan could easily feel himself becoming stronger and stronger.

However, before he could make that final leap that he wanted, the suns and the black hole stopped turning and returned to a passive state.

Lin Fan knew exactly why this had happened.

They had stopped because Lin Fan had already adapted to the aura of death that was around him. It had taken him ten minutes to do this, but he had sucked enough aura of death to grasp the law and stand under this aura of death like it was nothing.

Near the end of this process, the man on the bed had suddenly looked up from his book to look at Lin Fan with a curious gaze.

When the suction force disappeared and Lin Fan just stood there casually, the man revealed an interested look in his eyes as he said, "Interesting, you really have an interesting body."

Lin Fan had heard this and was surprised, but he still didn't let his guard down since he didn't know what this man wanted to do.

However, the man just sat up in the bed and continued looking over Lin Fan like he was looking at a test subject.

After another five minutes, the man finally said, "Well, aren't you going to introduce yourself?"

The moment he said this, the tension that had been in Lin Fan the entire five minutes he had been waiting had snapped and he fell apart. Though he didn't fall to the ground, his mind did relax a bit creating a slight moment where his defenses were down.

Even then, the man in front of him just sat there on the bed looking at Lin Fan without any intention of attacking.

This didn't make any sense to Lin Fan.

According to what he had read from Faust's file, he was someone who was very violent and erratic, so why was he acting like this?

Still, Lin Fan didn't take the time to get into this because right now he needed to keep his mind sharp to deal with Faust.

Lin Fan also had Brainy link up to his mind so that it could give him advice at any time. Lin Fan had to admit that Brainy was indeed smarter than him, but that was just the benefit that Brainy's skill brought.

Lin Fan paused for a bit before saying, "Aren't you supposed to give your own name before asking for someone else's?"
