A Stroke Erased the King of Immortality?

Heaven.

Southern Domain, Cangli Mountain Range.

Lu Rang, Dugu Yuqing, and the others have already returned to the Small Mountain Village.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they entered the Small Mountain Village.

Once they reach this point, even those beings beyond true immortality will no longer be so worrisome.

They soon arrived outside Li Fan's Small Courtyard.

Lu Rang stepped forward, pushed open the door, and entered the Small Courtyard, saying:

"Master, we're back."

In the Small Courtyard, Li Fan was idly teaching Xin Ning to read poetry while playing chess.

His opponent is himself.

Previously, when Lu Rang chess, although Li Fan Rang's chess skills weren't very good, it still piqued his interest, so he played a few games against himself.

"You're back. Was your journey safe and sound?"

Upon seeing Lu Rang and the others return, Li Fan asked with a smile.

The other Senior Brother also stopped what they were doing and looked at Lu Rang and Dugu Yuqing!

Nan Feng, Ziling, Long Zixuan, and others all had a hint of anticipation and curiosity in their eyes.

They knew all too well that this time, their two junior brothers' departure... had stirred up an enormous storm!

Even levels of existence beyond immortality have emerged.

"Reporting to Master, everything is going smoothly."

Dugu Yuqing reported:

"We have completed the mission as Master instructed!"

He still felt a pang of emotion. If his master had told him and Lu Rang before they set off that they would be facing immortals and beings above immortals, he probably wouldn't have dared to go!

Fortunately, we have now obtained the items from the Immortal Dao Palace.

He believed that was his master's purpose.

Upon hearing this, Li Fan smiled, indicating that the mission had been completed very successfully.

Dugu Yuqing has only been studying calligraphy for a short time, yet she's already making a name for herself?

"Where's the prize? Let me see it."

Li Fan asked a question.

He was quite curious about whether the prizes for competitions held outside the official venues were generous.

If possible, I might be able to participate in it someday...

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yuqing was taken aback for a moment, but quickly understood!

The "prize" the teacher mentioned must be referring to that broken sword!

For the teachers, this experience was a test, and those who passed it received the prizes!

"Here!"

Dugu Yuqing immediately and respectfully presented the broken sword.

Everyone else was taken aback by what they saw.

"This sword... it's terrifying. It doesn't exude a single trace of dread, yet it's like an abyss, unfathomably deep..."

Long Zixuan couldn't help but speak up!

"Though dormant and hidden, its invincible sharpness can still be felt... This sword may have drunk the blood of True Buddha..."

Qing Chen muttered to himself, in his eyes, this sword was simply a deadly weapon!

Extremely dangerous!

The Yuanyang Holy Lord and the others were also greatly shocked. Just one glance at the sword made them feel an unbearable pressure coming from their souls!

"This sword... I almost reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship just by getting close... It can absorb all the sword techniques in the world?!"

Dugu Chenlu murmured to himself!

This is terrible.

Xin Ning also stared wide-eyed at the broken sword in disbelief!

"Devil Lord, is this... is this the legendary sword from the Southern Immortal Realm?!"

Gongya spoke, her voice trembling slightly.

This sword almost made her kneel down!

Because this broken sword had been bathed in countless demonic blood, she could even sense that it contained the blood of an immortal Devil Lord, and even... the blood of Devil King who surpassed immortality!

This is terrifying...

Only the one from the Southern Immortal Realm could achieve this!

The Limitless Immortal Sword, once a sword that guarded the southern sky and deterred the Devil Realm from daring to cross the Sea of Taboos...

"That must be it... In this world, only that sword possesses such terrifying power... Why is this sword in the lower realm? Could the legend be true?"

Xin Ning murmured, "The Wuji Sword King of the Southern Immortal Realm, because his friend, the King of Immortality of the First Heavenly Realm... and perished in the lower realm?"

Thinking it over, she looked at Li Fan with her big eyes, her mind filled with even more doubts!

So, who exactly is Li Fan?

How did he know where the sword was?

Moreover, it's easy to send disciples to obtain it...

While everyone was still in shock, Li Fan casually took the broken sword and weighed it in his hand.

It's a broken sword?

This prize is quite rare; could it be an antique or something?

Li Fan said, "The sword is alright, and the materials used to forge it are also acceptable, it's just a pity it's broken... If there's a chance in the future, it might be better to reforge it."

Upon hearing this, everyone was even more shocked.

This terrifying divine sword was merely... in Li Fan's eyes.

Well enough...

It's alright...

"Even the Sword of the Wuji Sword King, in his eyes, is merely 'acceptable'..."

Xin Ning murmured, a sense of disorientation washing over her. What kind of being was she facing...?

Gongya's expression was even more complicated. The more she understood the terrifying nature of this sword, the more she could feel how frightening Li Fan's two simple comments were!

Dugu Yuqing's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Master, you are skilled in sword forging?"

Li Fan smiled and said, "Sword forging? I only know a little about blacksmithing..."

Blacksmithing?

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

But they all realized it immediately!

"The blacksmithing that Senior Li spoke of... refers to the Dao of weapon forging!"

Everyone finally understood!

To the world, weapon crafting is a profound and difficult skill to understand, but for Senior Li... it's no different from a worldly blacksmith forging iron!

Dugu Yuqing was overjoyed, for he understood the weight of his teacher's words!

To others, knowing a little bit is perhaps just knowing a little bit.

However, everyone present understood that Li Fan's limited knowledge... absolutely meant that this was yet another path leading to the ultimate limit.

"The art of weapon crafting is extremely complex. Among millions of cultivators, only one or two lucky individuals can actually master it... It turns out that Senior Li is also proficient in this art."

"Senior Li is truly a learned Celestial Person extraordinary talent. I really want to know, is there anything in this world that he doesn't understand?"

"Knowledgeable of everything, both ancient and modern... that's all there is to it."

Everyone was filled with emotion.

"Oh, Master, there's one more thing. This time... there's an extra person in your painting!"

Dugu Yuqing continued speaking, taking out the Great Sun Dao Diagram bestowed upon her by Li Fan and opening it.

Nan Feng and Ziling also came over. There was actually an extra person in their master's painting? What was going on?

The disciples were all paying close attention.

The Yuanyang Holy Lord and the others looked even more solemn. They all knew that the things in this painting were extraordinary, involving beings beyond the immortal realm.

As the Scroll was unfurled, everyone saw a red sun in the painting, as if it had been plucked from the real world and placed into the Scroll. The Scroll was vast, with the sun setting in the west, filled with some ineffable truth.

At this moment, within the Scroll, a figure is approaching the rising sun.

"One step closer!"

The Yuanyang Holy Lord and the others were all astonished.

Compared to when they were in the Taiyan Holy Land, this figure was now much closer to the red sun.

"This clone belongs to an existence above immortality... If it gets close, it might break out of the Scroll!"

"Once such Supreme Being breaks free, the entire lower realm will likely be turned upside down, and no one will be able to stop it..."

They were all very worried!

As for the Marshal Gongya, he only glanced at it from afar, but his eyes stung and he almost bled. He quickly lowered his head!

"Devil Lord... that figure is trapped inside the painting. That figure is likely an extremely terrifying being..."

She transmitted her voice in terror!

As a former Demon General, she knew far more about those terrifying beings!

There is a prophecy in the world. "The Celestial King must not be seen!"

Looking directly at a Celestial King often leads to all sorts of bizarre and terrifying events, and many people die suddenly.

Xin Ning glanced at it as well, and murmured, "Could an avatar of a King of Immortality be trapped in this painting? That's terrifying..."

This is simply unimaginable.

The King of Immortality —that is a truly Supreme Being both in heaven and on earth.

Even after hundreds of thousands of years, it is difficult to find even one.

The King of Immortality is synonymous with invincibility.

Now, an avatar of a King of Immortality is trapped by a painting... If this gets out, the entire Immortal Realm will be thrown into turmoil!

Li Fan glanced at his painting and couldn't help but show a slight displeasure!

Who is this, so inconsiderate, scribbling on my painting?

That's outrageous! That's incredibly rude!

Moreover, although the figure was drawn in a blurry way, it was still vaguely recognizable as a man. If it were a fairy or something, it could be described as a celestial being descending to earth in broad daylight, which would be somewhat interesting... But now, it's truly ugly!

"Master, what... what should we do..."

Dugu Yuqing was somewhat uneasy.

Although Li Fan was displeased, he did not blame Dugu Yuqing and the others, and said calmly:

"It's alright, nothing serious. Bring me some pen and ink."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room had a brightening look in their eyes.

Immediately, Ziling retrieved a brush and ink from the study.

Everyone was looking at Li Fan.

With a flourish of his brush, Li Fan swept across the Scroll, his ink-soaked brushstrokes sweeping across the canvas!

As he drew that stroke, everyone in the room seemed to feel a tremor originating from their very souls, as if some unspeakable existence was passing away, the Great Dao roared, and the Principle intertwined!

With Li Fan's stroke, the figure in the Great Sun Dao Diagram was actually erased by Li Fan!

In an instant, everyone was stunned!

Dead silence, utter dead silence!
