Qiankun Shuanglong Jianlan's Awakening Prelude

The True Yang Blood Dragon and the Qiankun Tai Sha Twin Dragons, three dragon-shaped avatars formed from the sea of blood, sword mist, and evil energy, possessed earth-shattering power when they fought. Their battle completely drained the Dao Breath and evil energy in the world, and any sweep of their tails was a powerful move that would inflict full damage on the entire field, leaving no room for anyone else.

Everyone present quickly moved aside, leaving the battlefield to the giant dragons locked in fierce combat.

Whether it's Lou Guan's True Cultivator or the demonic disciples under Nangong's command, they are actually among the first pioneers in this world to have the deepest understanding and exploration of the Dao of Tai Su. Those who can cultivate to their level are naturally people who possess wisdom, Dao heart, and good fortune.

While cultivators in the Taiji Realm were still using malevolent energy as stolen treasures and magical artifacts, they were also using it to attack the bodies of floods and ferocious beasts.

Over the years, these people have gradually refined the evil energy for their own use through exploration, either by changing their physical form or by reorganizing their demonic bodies. They have developed some unique new techniques and tricks that they have come up with themselves.

However, when the true Tai Su method, with its fierce thunder, raging wind and thunder, and soaring heavenly dragon, began to fight in the face of the demons, they were still shocked!

The two engaged in fierce combat had clearly surpassed the exploration stage, taking a giant leap ahead of everyone else. Fundamentally, they had profoundly mastered the changes in baleful energy and comprehended the true 'Tao of Primordial Essence'!

The surging, bubbling sea of true yang blood, filled with malevolent energy, was not only impervious to all magic, but also regarded all malevolent demonic bodies in the world as firewood! Every now and then, a Dragon Head would leap out from that boundless, indestructible sea of blood, snatching up the demonic Real Persons and devouring them! Then the Blood River would swell, transforming into a new blood demon, joining the main battlefield in the carnage!

The twin dragons Qiankun Sha Qi can directly communicate with the boundless energy between heaven and earth! Whether it is Dao Breath energy or malevolent energy, it is no longer an obstacle, but rather a natural component of this world and this body, just like the nine energies of heaven and earth!

All energy was swept up by the storm, transformed into the user's own Dao power, and then turned into a rain of swords! Roaring and crashing down upon the sea of blood!

This Tai Su Qiankun Qi can be said to be a unique variant of evil Qi in the Taiji Realm. It is itself a fusion of the Taiji Universe formed by the Five Elements Qi, and it also includes the basic energy of the Tai Su Realm! In terms of attributes, it is already all-encompassing and perfect.

Li Fan had suffered greatly from this technique back then and knew its power all too well. He wasn't afraid to directly confront the True Yang Dao Fire, let alone the Blood River, which was ultimately just a half-baked divine skill supported by the <Dao Breath Blood Refining> method.

In one clash, after several rounds of fighting, the blood dragon, which had been so ferocious just moments before, was brutally torn to pieces! The dry dragon bit the blood dragon's scalp, while the slender dragon seized its neck, and together they ripped it open, creating a huge, bloody gash!

Li Fan immediately used his inner energy to protect himself, escaping from the Twin Qi Sea! He charged straight into the Blood Dragon's mouth, unleashing a flurry of brutal slashes along its throat and esophagus, aiming directly for the Blood Dragon's heart!

However, how could the Wisdom Dharma King be so foolish as to be defeated in less than ten moves? Suddenly, the blood dragon dissipated, and the Blood River soared into the sky! He directly formed an array with blood! The sky turned red and the earth turned scorched! Blood River swirled and converged from all directions, forming a huge, rushing blood sphere that completely enveloped Li Fan!

The twin dragons roared, riding the whirlwind to fiercely bombard the blood sphere! But the attack was already complete; the blood sphere, though tossed about by the hurricane, remained unbroken. Li Fan, trapped within, felt the world spinning, as if he were inside a washing machine. At the same time, hundreds of blood demons rose from the Blood River on the inner wall, their bright yellow eyes fixed on him, their claws retrieving pairs of blood-red swords from the surging Blood River!

"Ha! You want to fight me with swords? You're asking for death! Come on!"

Li Fan roared, gathering the Qiankun Sha Qi and earth at his fingertips and transforming it into a sword. With a gust of sword wind, he charged out to strike!

The countless blood demons roared and, wielding two swords, leaped forward like a swarm of monkeys and bats, instantly charging towards Li Fan in a massive, overwhelming attack!

Man's greatest enemy is always himself.

And each of these blood demons seemed like a blood-soaked reflection of Li Fan! Each of them possessed the Blood Shadow Godly Movement technique! Each of them was proficient in the Blood Sea Sword Howl technique! It could be said that it was Li Fan himself who cultivated these hundreds of extremely ferocious blood demons!

"But your skills are still not up to par!!"

Both are swords wielded with Qi, but the Tai Su Qiankun Sword is far more powerful than the Blood Sword!

Li Fan simply killed them one by one with his sword, shattering blades and breaking swords in a massacre, slaughtering the Blood Demons! They all became victims of his sword!

However, the blood demons were endless, charging forward with a barrage of chaotic sword strikes! Completely disregarding the damage, they even began to use the Blood Shadow Godly Movement technique, using their bodies as swords to thrust forward! This was all the fighting style of the Northern Star Death Warriors, trading life for life, or even life for injury!

Such fierce and vicious attacks repeatedly put Li Fan in mortal danger! Yet he managed to dodge and weave, even relying on the Heavenly Robe of Qiankun Sha Qi to defend himself, and managed to withstand each and every sword strike!

The battle was fierce, but Li Fan felt it was actually alright.

Firstly, his usual cultivation involves practicing simulated battles against himself in the Divine Court. Not to mention sword formation encirclement, assassin raids, stealth assaults, Blood Talisman Sword Techniques, and the like, he has practiced them countless times in actual combat and has long since memorized them!

Secondly, although everyone was using advanced secret techniques to fight, to outsiders it looked like a massive, earth-shattering battle between Goblin and Giblin, but in reality, Li Fan, who was actually exchanging blows, knew his opponent's skills and methods inside and out. Moreover, he even clearly sensed that this 'Wisdom Dharma King' seemed a bit weak...

It wasn't underestimating the opponent; it's a fact.

These blood demons were not at the level he had practiced in simulated battles.

Besides, he figured out and practiced every move of the Blood Talisman Sword Technique himself! Back then, when he was riddled with thorns by Zhang Dali, he really studied the crime scene for a long time. He knew where the sword wounds hurt the most, where the sword wounds were completely useless, and where a stray sword strike would have a miraculous effect. He had thoroughly studied and figured out every move himself, so how could he not know?

So when the Blood Demon added some random, unnecessary variations to his pure swordsmanship, causing the swordsmanship to lose power, Li Fan immediately noticed.

Then Li Fan understood that, if he wasn't mistaken, this Blood Demon was rapidly awakening from 'Li Fan' into 'Lu Zhihui'.

I don't mean to belittle Lu Zhihui's wisdom, but to be honest, this family's strengths really do lie in their intelligence. Their comprehension of swordsmanship is indeed Zhang Dali's, and they can't compare to that old man from Penglai.

Moreover, the tactics currently employed by the opponent reveal the Wisdom Dharma King's preferred style.

This guy is the complete opposite of Xuan Ti. He would never rush in with his true form right away to quickly cut through the chaos and engage Li Fan in close-quarters sword combat. Instead, he would first use his Blood Dragon Dharma Body to entangle Li Fan, then set up a sea of swords Blood River, circling and firing wildly to create a magic array battlefield. Then he would summon a large number of Blood Demon Puppets, who would charge in with swords and set up a sword array to encircle and annihilate him.

Even if we accidentally kill a few, it doesn't matter; we can just re-form a new one to complete the sword formation! If we can capture and eat one of the demon children, we can make up for all the ones that were destroyed!

This meticulous, intricate, and elusive fighting style, which hides its core essence, is more akin to that of a mage than a swordsman. Yes, like a puppeteer hiding behind the scenes, manipulating puppets with strings!

Therefore, purely in terms of swordsmanship, Lu Zhihui, who belongs to the fighting style, is at a disadvantage compared to Li Fan, who belongs to the fighting style.

Of course, the assessment of this swordsmanship as 'clumsy' is from Li Fan's perspective. To put it bluntly, it's just that in a life-or-death struggle, Li Fan could win by having the advantage of one or two sword strikes.

However, it is obvious that Lu Zhihui will not give Li Fan the opportunity to leverage his advantages.

On the contrary, Lu Zhihui played to his strengths and avoided his weaknesses, hiding his core in the Blood River. He only operated a bunch of blood demons like a puppet to consume Li Fan's Dao power. This was enough for him to use the Blood Talisman Sword Technique to offset the sword power of the Qiankun Twin Dragon Swords, steadily surviving the weak period of the awakening stage and remaining invincible!

Because Li Fan's current clone is ultimately using the power of the Micro Dust Cloud Seal. Although it is a clone treasure of the Dao Lord level, it is enough for him to cause trouble for a while, but the power of magic has its limits. If he continues to exhaust it like this, it may be used up sooner or later!

On the contrary, the True Yang Heart, which the Wisdom Dharma King possesses, provides almost inexhaustible Dao power. The Blood River has already fused with countless human and demonic remains, truly causing widespread suffering. But with such a massive supply of flesh and blood, like a great river of red, it is enough to fight this battle!

Even if Li Fan could choose to unleash the full power of the Tai Su Qiankun Sword Storm, or simply use some ultimate killing moves to completely destroy the Blood River, the problem is that unless absolutely necessary, he cannot truly use his full strength to 'annihilate' this Blood River clone.

After all, this is his own body!

If you beat yourself too hard and destroy all your hard work, isn't that suicide?

What kind of nonsense is this about disintegrating one's body and seizing another's soul? How can he possibly control the Thousand-Faced Immortal? How is he supposed to deal with the endless demonic minions outside?

Will he truly be a hero again eighteen years later, his Sword Embryo Flying Crossing across the void, destined for reincarnation???

Therefore, as soon as Li Fan arrived, he used the Qiankun Shuanglong Jianlan to launch a full-scale attack into the depths of the Blood River, attempting to find the True Yang Heart and snatch it back.

Lu Zhihui, being quite intelligent, brought the Blood River to life, transforming it into a blood dragon that clashed and fought with Li Fan's Qi Dragon. At the same time, he created various magic arrays, blood demons, and sword arrays to delay Li Fan's progress and deplete the remaining talisman power of the Micro Dust Cloud Seal!

Yes, actually, by now, Li Fan has already understood a little bit, and Lu Zhihui probably understands it even more clearly.

The consciousness of the Wisdom Dharma King has been imprisoned for so long, how could it suddenly break free from the seal, suddenly succeed in betraying him, and inexplicably seize his physical body just because someone touched his head a couple of times?

There is a destiny at work; the time has come.

Yes, this was actually the tragedy that led to Qingyue's death.

Once this tribulation is overcome, one will Divine Transformation.

With Qingyue's abilities and cultivation, she will surely be able to overcome this tribulation.

The only difference lies in whether the 'Qingyue' who ultimately transcends tribulation Divine Transformation is a reincarnation of an Emei disciple or a rebirth of a Divine Sect Dharma King!

The Daoist Master sitting quietly outside is waiting for exactly this outcome!

Who will ultimately Daoist Tradition the Tai Su world in the future?

The battle between the righteous and the demonic is about to begin!

In the struggle for the ultimate truth, who else but me can succeed!

How could Lu Zhihui let this opportunity slip by!

How could Li Fan possibly let this opportunity slip by!

One of them has to die!

"Lu Zhihui! Come out and face me head-on!"

Charging and hacking his way through the Blood Demon Sword Formation, Li Fan, relying on his extensive experience of being impaled, deliberately let a few insignificant thrusts pass by. His body was riddled with Blood Talisman Swords, his Daoist form a mix of black, white, and red, flashing with light as he roared in fury.

"Come here, you little brat! Come out and let Daddy take good care of you!"

The Blood Demons still swarmed in like bats that blotted out the sky, but one head emerged from the Blood River.

"Li Fan, even after reincarnation, you still can't shake your vulgar language. You're a disgrace to Emei!"

"Pah! Lu Zhihui, you cowardly coward who cowers and doesn't dare to come out! You're the one who disgraces the cult!"

Li Fan roared and unleashed a flurry of attacks, slicing through countless blood demons. However, he too was struck by a sword that severed his right arm, and his sword vanished without a trace.

"Heh, heh, heh..."

Countless heads floated Blood River, laughing in unison. At this moment, the Blood Demon, transformed and reshaped, no longer resembled 'Qingyue'.

"Heh, heh, what Lu Zhihui? You brat, you haven't actually remembered anything yet, have you... Looks like I won this time... Heh, heh, heh..."

"Heh heh heh my ass! Bah! Are you blind?! Didn't you see how thick the array outside is?! Stop it, you idiot! There are Dao Lords outside! You kneel down and lick my shoes now! I'm a magnanimous person, I'll chop off your head and put it in a spittoon! Hehehe hahaha!"

Li Fan laughed wildly as he swung his one-armed sword wildly, his face gradually transforming into Dragon Head.

The surrounding blood demons swarmed in, hacking Li Fan's Tai Su clone to pieces. Finally, seeing what had become a black and white, dough-like mass, they temporarily ceased their attack. The blood demons, now with faces, coldly laughed as they surrounded Li Fan's mutated and out-of-control clone.

"The kid's pretty smart."

Yes, if we remain trapped in this formation and entangled with the Blood Demon, and Lu Zhihui seizes the Dao Body first, then we'll only have one path left: suicide!

Therefore, before Li Fan exhausted the power of the Micro Dust Cloud Seal, he immediately abandoned his clone! He attached his primordial spirit to the Tai Sha Sword Embryo! Hiding it in the arm that had just been severed, he took the opportunity to sink into the depths of the Blood River and escape the encirclement of the Blood Demon!

At this moment, Li Fan was riding the sword embryo, traversing the formation at high speed, searching for the location of the True Yang Heart!

Soon, from behind, came wailing and howling! Countless blood demons also charged forward using the Blood Shadow Godly Movement Technique, relentlessly pursuing them!

Damn! They took out my clone so quickly, useless! But it doesn't matter! I found it!

Deep within the Blood River, bubbles floated, one of which was hurtling towards Li Fan at breakneck speed!

Haha! My darling! Daddy's here!

The Tai Sha Sword Embryo accelerated and charged into it!

Damn, it's a Kun!!

Kun was overjoyed! It pounced towards Li Fan!

Get out of the way! I don't want to be reborn as a salted fish!

Sword Embryo used a serpentine maneuver to bypass the Kun and continue its journey.

The Blood Demon charges!

The Kun was shocked! The Kun fled! The Kun was captured! All in one swift motion!

Li Fan, riding his sword embryo, darted around aimlessly, encountering Si Nan, a fan, a jade flute, a bowl, a Bagua mirror...

Damn, these two really thought he was dead; they actually split up.

Anyway, a whole bunch of random stuff the system gave me, Blood River probably couldn't absorb it all, so I just sealed it in the bubble... Oh right! The Si Nan!

So Li Fan used the sword embryo in a Cobra maneuver, shaking off a large group of pursuing blood demons, and rushed back into the bubble Si Nan had been.

My heart!

The Si Nan pointed out a direction.

Q!

Then the sword embryo made another maneuver, rushing back to Kun's side, sticking its black, willow-leaf-like tip to the fish's head, and pointing the sword tip in one direction.

Get the hell out of here and jump!!!

Kun leaps from the water!

The next second, it was as if the red silk that had always been covering their eyes was lifted, revealing a bright light and the stars shifting.

Li Fan and Kun leaped through the Blood River and landed at the entrance of a cave on a lonely mountain.

This lonely mountain is clearly a den of demons, with mountains of corpses and seas of blood everywhere. The bodies of demons are like ears of wheat swept down by a sword, and it is impossible to find a whole corpse that can be stitched back together.

At this moment, an Emei Daoist priest, riding Sword Light, descended from the sky and landed at the entrance of the cave, bowing and saying...

"Greetings, Master!"

Then, Cangwu, carrying an infant, slowly walked out of the cave.

"He's the only one who survived; let's take him back to Golden Summit and adopt him."

"In accordance with the law."

The Daoist priest held the baby in his hands, and Kun also came closer to look.

Li Fan rode his sword embryo and flew into the cave, circling around. He confirmed that many of the corpses were children and infants, most of them deformed and grotesque, their deaths gruesome. The incantations written on the talismans and flags on the walls were clearly Luo Sect runes and secret scriptures, with fragments of heavenly books such as the "Key Scroll" and "Immovable Mount Tai" prominently displayed.

Was she one of Nangong's early experiments...?

Kun: "Hey, hey, come and see the fun!"

What's so interesting about it? It's just the pre-awakening soul...

Kun, 'It looks like Thunder Monkeys...'

Li Fan,...
