The Grandmaster's Legacy
Looking at this scene, Li Fan was actually alright; he was used to it. Although so many arms and eyeballs were quite eerie to look at, and nine times out of ten, every single eye was making a judgment on the primordial spirit attack, it was indeed quite damaging little by little.
But now, with the False Moon hanging high in the sky and demonic energy rampant, it is clear that Purple Void Dao Lord has lost control of his Dao heart. The wind and clouds are filled with malevolent energy, causing serious pollution to the environment, but it is of great benefit to Li Fan's primordial spirit cultivation.
It can be said that this battlefield was carefully selected, with favorable timing, location, and popular support—all within the master's grasp.
So after all the additions and subtractions, and rounding it off, Li Fan's mood, while not exactly fluctuating much, could be considered completely calm.
However, the unsuspecting and heavily injured Emei and Hengshan Real Persons outside could not hold back.
Looking up, one could simultaneously make eye contact with thousands upon thousands of pairs of eyes, and the area was cleared out almost instantly.
If a disciple of the Xuanmen sect were to possess true skill and be fully prepared, there might be a chance to deal with the demonic invasion or survive the onslaught of its Demon Claw.
But they had just been ambushed and were sitting together, men and women, cultivating and healing. Now, in their shock, almost no one could control themselves, and the situation spiraled out of control!
Those with a better foundation can still maintain their human form, but blood spurts from their mouths and eyes, red spurts from their noses, their meridians reverse, their breath goes erratic, they suffer from qi deviation, and their whole body becomes stiff and paralyzed.
However, those with inferior aptitude and lower Dao heart directly suffered from rotting flesh and bones, resulting in disfigurement and transformation into Devil Embryo! The fleshy branches of those bodies erupted into tumors, splattering blood and pus like fountains! Ignoring the approaching Demon Claw, they actually began attacking and preying on each other nearby, grabbing fellow Daoists who were vomiting blood during their dual cultivation, stuffing them into their mouths, and gnawing on them until flesh and blood flew everywhere!
The rampaging, out-of-control, and severely injured cultivators were locked in a chaotic melee, while countless Demon Claw swooped down from above, swatting at them like flies, tearing their hearts and skulls apart, smashing them into a bloody pulp! In an instant, flesh and blood exploded everywhere, corpses flew in all directions, and the sounds of roars, screams, maniacal laughter, and wailing filled the air! The scene was like a living hell!
The demon descended upon the world, wiping out more than half of the group in an instant. It was much simpler than planned...
"Master--!!"
Suddenly, a palm strike blasted open the roof of the Immortal Pavilion, revealing a female cultivator in yellow robes at the Nascent Soul Realm, who emerged from the building, holding a golden prayer wheel-like magical Magic Treasure aloft in her right hand.
With each flick of her wrist, a golden light emanated from the prayer wheel, rippling outwards like a shockwave, forcing the countless demonic hands back three feet!
However, before the man could flick his wrist a second time to complete the exorcism, a flash of Sword Light appeared, and the female cultivator's wrist and the magic scroll were both severed!
The female cultivator in yellow also looked astonished and confused. She turned her head and saw a wrist as smooth as a mirror, with white bones visible. Before she could say anything, a flash of blood-red light rushed from her pupils, and she was killed by three swords in front of her, cleaved into four pieces, and died on the spot.
Meanwhile, the system was also offline due to the influence of enlightenment. Li Fan did not come to kill the primordial spirits this time, but only to make a group of people reincarnate. He did not bother to check whether the person was dead or not, and directly glided past her and rushed into the Immortal Pavilion.
Behind him, hundreds of Demon Claw also pounced on the opening of the immortal Immortal Pavilion, tearing the yellow-robed female cultivator into pieces.
"Ting'er!"
A man's painful roar echoed from within the pavilion, as a sword aura swept in, aiming straight for Li Fan's brow!
"Wow! What a fine sword!"
A white sword, dazzlingly bright, hurtled towards us, its Sword Qi soaring into the sky! A single glance was enough to brand our vision with its Sword Light, severing it in two!
Li Fan also experienced a deadly crisis again after a long time. He even felt a chill in his soul and immediately understood that he must not use the sword shadow formed by his power to clash head-on with this real Sword Light!
Fortunately, he wasn't in a physical body, but rather using a primordial spirit clone, which allowed him to move with incredible speed and even return mid-air. So he immediately leaped away, instantly dodging the soaring sword path!
The thousands of Demon Claw that followed behind him, formed from the Dao Lord's Dao body, lunged at the Sword Qi, but none of them could withstand the brilliance of the Sword Light!
With a sweep of Sword Qi, hundreds and thousands of Demon Claw shattered into dust! A single sword strike cleared a patch of sky!
The sword sweeps away the fierce energy! The demonic aura recedes! Incomparably sharp!
Even more terrifying is that the mighty Sword Qi not only traces back to the source and vanquishes demons, but also purifies and destroys evil energy. With a single sword strike, it annihilates all evil and impurities! After the remnants and filth are blasted out of the sky, the remaining Qi and Dao power are all scattered into the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth! And these are then enveloped by the Sword Qi, transforming into two streams of white breath, which the sword wielder absorbs into his lungs and regulates his breathing! As a result, wielding this Divine Transformation Sword wildly not only resulted in little consumption, but his cultivation level actually increased dramatically—can you believe it!
Upon witnessing such exaggerated sword power and such distinctive features, Li Fan instantly recalled the Eight Trigrams Secret Teachings of the Sword Sect. Without further doubt, he pointed directly at the tall, imposing Emei swordsman with a red mole between his brows and roared, "..."
"You even gave it to White Treasure Sword Lord! Which damned person spread the rumor that Cangbi refused to pass on the position of sect leader! How dare you betray Emei like this, Xuan Yunzi!"
Good!
It is the sword of the Emei Sect Leader, one of the Four Great Sword Masters! The Divine Sword Bai Zang!
This sword is based on lung qi, which is the yin within yang, and is connected to autumn qi. Therefore, it is in harmony with the season, when the sky is high and the qi is clear! The year's work is abundant! All things are harvested! In other words, after killing your enemy with this sword, you can also absorb their qi, just like harvesting wheat in autumn!
Therefore, although it is a peerless divine weapon of the first-grade Divine Transformation stage, the pressure and consumption on the Dao body when wielding it is far less severe than other magical treasures! Moreover, it can replenish Qi through battle! It gets stronger the more it fights! There is absolutely no bottom line or fairness!!
The sword of the Emei Sect Leader, White Treasure Sword Lord, was able to obtain! And he was even able to force Li Fan to retreat in fright with a single Divine Transformation strike! It goes without saying that it must be Xuan Yunzi, who caused the world-shaking news by betraying Emei and establishing his own Nanshan Sect!
Having witnessed Ting'er's violent death before his very eyes, Xuan Yunzi's eyebrows furrowed and his eyes turned slightly red. He looked as if he wished he could rush up immediately and chop off Li Fan's head with a single sword strike!
But a master like him, who could come out to compete for the sect leader position, was naturally no ordinary person. He could tell at a glance that Li Fan was just an avatar here. Killing him would be the same as not killing him. He could attack or defend at will, so he didn't care at all.
Meanwhile, outside the Immortal Pavilion, endless Demon Claw were still crawling in through the breach, completely unafraid of the power of Bai Zang's Divine Sword! They were about to rush into the pavilion and feast on fresh flesh and blood!
At this moment, many cultivators inside the Immortal Pavilion were still in the critical stage of seclusion to heal their injuries! Therefore, they could only rely on Xuan Yunzi to hold off the demonic tide at the front and could not get away!
Thus, Xuan Yunzi could only grit his teeth and suppress his personal grudge. He wove the power of his White Hidden Divine Sword into a net, unleashing a burst of Sword Light to first force Li Fan back. Then, while simultaneously slashing through the air with his sword, he swiftly annihilated and eliminated the Demon Claw that had rushed into the Immortal Pavilion, all the while sending out angry shouts through his voice.
"Nan Sect disciples! Falling Sword Formation! Slay the Demon!"
"Falling Sword Formation!"
Inside the quiet chamber of the Immortal Pavilion, one after another, Nascent Soul Stage cultivators from Emei, dressed in white Daoist robes, flew out of seclusion!
This group of people were clearly also seriously injured and had weak breaths, but they did not hesitate to come out to stop them at the first moment. The Emei sword in their hands shone brightly, and it was obvious that they had also comprehended the way of Qi sword from the method of the Beichen Sword Sect, and poured all their Emei Qi power into the three-foot green sword.
These fellow disciples, working in perfect unison, unleashed a flurry of Sword Light and stealthy flight, swooping down like a net to surround Li Fan from all sides. They formed a sword array to fight him! At the same time, they were also guarding against the Immortal Pavilion's seal being broken, preventing those Demon Claw from breaking in!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xuan Yunzi lunged forward, his White Hidden Sword slashing wildly! He carved a bloody path through the Demon Claw, pushing them away! He easily killed a large number of Demon Claw, then snatched the remaining head of 'Ting'er', held it in his arms, and quickly withdrew. He then raised his hand and cast a Fa Yin to block the cave entrance, rapidly chanting incantations to keep the demonic eyes and Demon Claw at bay outside the Immortal Pavilion!
"Ha! At a time like this, you're still thinking about rescuing Ma Zibing! You'll never amount to anything!"
Facing an opponent wielding the White Hidden Divine Sword, Li Fan naturally dared not engage in a direct confrontation. Instead, he hurled insults while circling around, clearing out the smaller monsters before tackling the boss!
Li Fan wielded his twin swords wildly, the bright red Qi swords striking and slashing at each other with lightning speed, weaving left and right and charging forward and backward within the Emei Sword Formation. In the blink of an eye, while Xuan Yunzi was advancing and retreating, he was just as swift, having already pierced hearts and lungs, split abdomens and beheaded four people in succession!
Yes, the swordsmen of Emei are indeed formidable. Even though they have just fought a fierce battle and are not at their peak, they are still top disciples of the most prestigious sects, each with extensive combat experience. In this life-or-death situation, they immediately abandon useless spells and incantations, directly condensing their cultivation into Qi swords to unleash a combined sword formation, rushing forward in perfect unison to encircle and annihilate each other!
The formation, hastily assembled, was fierce and efficient, almost comparable to the sword formation of the Beichen Sword Sect; it was undeniably formidable!
But here's the problem: the formation they set up was none other than the Six Gates Formation of Life, Death, Illusion, Annihilation, Obscurity, and Light!
Are you kidding me! Are you from the Emei Sect, where everything is decided by the Six Gates Formation? What? You think you can use this formation to bully idiots who can't do math just because it can keep changing? Too bad this is the first formation of the Xuantian Sect, the first question in Li Fan's wrong answer book! They've already figured it out!
"Then I won't hold back! Die--!"
Li Fan launched a surprise attack, dodging the sword formation of the surrounding Emei disciples as if he were walking through a hall in his own home. The True Person who changed formation was also caught off guard, as if he were offering himself up to Li Fan's sword. He was struck from both sides by the Blood Talisman Twin Swords, and then twisted over his head like a pair of scissors, and fell down, another person was taken down!
The head of that Emei disciple was sent flying into the air by the blood, rolling down to Xuan Yunzi's feet!
"You bastard! Get out of here! You coward! State your name!"
Xuan Yunzi had only hoped that the sword formation would provide temporary cover, and that he would kill the bastard to vent his anger once he withdrew his hand. But he never expected that in the blink of an eye, half of his comrades who had followed him on his adventures had already perished! He was immediately filled with great pain! With a loud shout, he launched his flying sword!
"Ha! I know! You only kill nameless ghosts, don't you! You can talk nonsense after you can win! Blood Sea Sword Howl!"
Li Fan was now in the guise of magic, practically unarmed and naked, so it would be foolish for him to fight head-on. He immediately withdrew, swinging his twin swords and sweeping the tips across the blood splattered on the ground. Whoosh! A towering cloud of blood mist rose from the sword!
Within that surging Blood River, sword energy flowed, swirling into a tidal wave of sword energy, forming a counter-array! It was as if a crimson curtain of sword nets had been drawn across the room! It directly enveloped Xuan Yunzi and the other thirteen Emei disciples who were retreating, separating them within the sword formation and turning it into a sword tide that would annihilate them!
Li Fan himself charged straight at the disciples of the Nan Sect of Emei, weaving through the Blood River!
But Xuan Yunzi is a tough opponent, because he actually saw through Li Fan's scheme!
Yes, it's a trick! If an ordinary cultivator were to wield a divine weapon like the White Hidden Sword, the simplest and most direct way to deal with the overwhelming sword tide would be to break through the formation with brute force, borrowing the power of the White Hidden Lord's sword to directly shatter the Blood Sea Sword Howl.
But Xuan Yunzi didn't do that. Instead, he tapped his hand, retracted his wrist, and a thick, silky Dao Breath suddenly rolled out from his sleeve! It directly enveloped the blade of White Hidden Sword! He even suppressed his sword power to the minimum, merely using the sword wind to protect himself. With only one hand holding the sword and the other making a hand seal, he forcefully broke through the Blood Sea Sword Howl Formation head-on!
Wait, this guy didn't fall for the trap! And his computing power is that amazing!
Li Fan was greatly surprised. His original plan was to use the Blood Sea Sword Howl Roar to obscure his vision, and take advantage of the opportunity when the opponent used the White Hidden Sword to open up the sword formation with wide and powerful strokes, so that the White Hidden Sword force would miss its target, and preferably the sword would miss its mark, directly breaking through the Immortal Pavilion's restrictive formation and letting the Demon Claw outside come in to help!
After all, Xuan Yunzi had only been recognized as the master of White Hidden Sword for a few days, and had not yet received the full assistance of the awakened Sword Lord. Moreover, he had just lost his sister and many fellow disciples. He should have been the most hot-blooded person at that time, but he was still cautious, calm, and composed in the critical moment of sword fighting, where life and death were in an instant.
Moreover, he actually managed to predict the outcome on the spot and managed to break the Blood Sea Sword Howl Formation that Li Fan had casually set up!
Wow, she's a top student...
"Hahaha! What a useless piece of trash! With your abilities, you can't even handle my avatar, a Divine Transformation! What face do you have to betray Golden Summit and establish your own sect! You can't even protect your women! You can't even save your disciples! You've completely disgraced Emei! You've brought such shame upon your sect, why don't you quickly commit suicide to atone for your sins!"
While spewing insults, Li Fan used the bloody light of the sword formation to fly back and forth.
Of course, he was just being stubborn.
This Xuan Yunzi is really troublesome. When Li Fan was chasing Emei disciples, Xuan Yunzi would immediately calculate it, break through the layers of barriers of the Blood Sea Sword Howl, and rush over to kill people, forcing Li Fan to abandon his target and turn around to hide in the sword formation to kill others.
Fortunately, the space inside this Immortal Pavilion is limited, and there are restrictive formations that prevent everyone from using escape techniques to chase after him. They can only rely on their movement techniques to teleport and change positions. Otherwise, Xuan Yunzi would probably have already killed his way to them, relying on the power of his sword!
Moreover, the situation was getting worse for Li Fan, because the remaining thirteen Emei hostages in the formation had also figured out a way out and escaped the Blood Sea Sword Formation on their own! These academic geniuses are too much!
And then, to make matters worse, it rained all night! Outside the sword formation, there were clearly more than a dozen True Cultivator, including two Divine Lords! They had suppressed their injuries and come out of seclusion to help!
Li Fan is going crazy!
Oh my god, is this going to backfire...?
"Golden Thunder Universal Illumination! The Sunrise Emei!"
Damn it! You were just calculating with your sword, and then suddenly you unleashed a powerful attack!
Li Fan couldn't dodge this attack.
Because he didn't even see clearly what the move was all about.
Suddenly, a golden light pierced through the Blood River, parted the rain of swords, and shone directly towards us!
The moment the brush hit Li Fan's face, the Radiant Star clone instantly disintegrated!
Clearly, Li Fan underestimated Emei. They had attacked the Divine Sect more than once or twice, and they obviously had a strategy to deal with the Blood God Child's clone, which allowed them to kill it in an instant.
Could this be some kind of secret manual specifically designed by the Emei sect to counter the Fighting Gods Cult?
That's truly impressive! With just a few moves, she pinpointed his location and unleashed her ultimate attack with deadly precision. No wonder she's from Emei!
But it's actually not bad.
After all, Li Fan wasn't really a clone of the Blood God Child...
Moreover, he was naturally 'calm', so the damage from the primordial spirit technique was minimal, only a little bit.
Besides, everyone is at the 'sunrise' stage, so their True Yang Technique won't be that different.
Moreover, the connection between the star power and the magic was not broken, so Li Fan's Radiant Star Avatar condensed again in full view of everyone!
Oh right, although the system didn't notify him, Li Fan sensed it.
He learned that trick.
"Golden Thunder Universal Illumination! The Sunrise Emei!"
The next instant, a burst of bright light erupted within the Immortal Pavilion, and a dazzling radiance instantly overwhelmed everyone's vision, piercing through the clouds and straight through the night sky!
