Shing!
Pfft! Pfft! Squelch!
Yet, faced with the terrifying assault of Wang Xun and the other nine, Lin Fan casually unleashed a sword slash that swept across heaven and earth.
The terrifying sword light destroyed everything. When it struck the attacking imperial clan prodigies, they had no time to react at all. Seven fine heads flew high.
All seven were destroyed in body and soul, dying on the spot.
Lin Fan glanced at the remaining three.
Only Wang Xun and another Wang Clan prodigy had survived by sheer luck.
Protected by a Half-Sage weapon, Wang Xun had preserved his life, merely coughing up blood as he flew backward; the other had twisted sideways, losing half an arm and leaving a bloody mess.
Seeing that Wang Xun still wanted to speak, Lin Fan could of course tell that he wanted to stall for time. He said, "Enough. I don't like wasting words on dead men! Just die!"
"No!"
"You can't kill me! Ah..."
Wang Xun watched in terror as Lin Fan approached. Gravely wounded and unable to move, he finally exploded into a mist of blood on the spot.
One Wang Clan prodigy remained in the distance. Seeing Wang Xun perish and Lin Fan's gaze turn toward him, he turned and fled without hesitation.
He couldn't help shouting, "Don't kill me! Our Wang Clan's Wang Kunlong has broken through to the Purple Mansion Realm. If you kill me, he definitely won't let you off!"
Lin Fan said coldly, "I gave you a chance to flee earlier, but unfortunately, you refused! Now, die..."
Bang!
With Words Become Law, the last Wang Clan prodigy perished on the spot, exploding into a mist of blood.
Apart from the three great prodigies, including Wang Kunlong, who were absent, Lin Fan had caught all the dozen-plus imperial clan prodigies on this expedition in a single net!
Having finished all this, Lin Fan turned his gaze toward the last person present, Xiang Yunjie!
Xiang Yunjie looked at Lin Fan with some wariness. During that sword strike earlier, he had simply had no time to attack, escaping disaster.
Still, the scene before him was exactly what he wanted.
Lin Fan asked, "Aren't you running?"
Xiang Yunjie couldn't help laughing heartily. "Run? Why should I run? I've waited a long time for this battle! Ever since my physique became unrivaled among my peers in Heavenly Azure Province, I haven't been able to find another opponent! My body has long been thirsting for a battle of physiques!"
"Until I met you!"
"Your physique made my long-dormant Firmament Divine Body feel pressure and set my blood surging! I hope..."
"Stop!"
Feeling Xiang Yunjie's eager gaze, Lin Fan's expression turned strange, and goosebumps rose on his skin. Afraid that he would keep saying something wildly suggestive, he hurriedly interrupted, "Enough... stop talking, brother. I'm not into men! If you've got a fart, let it out!"
Xiang Yunjie didn't mind at all. His gaze remained fiery as he rubbed his fists and flexed his palms. "Good! Put your Sage weapon away! Come on, let's fight with our physiques! One move to decide the winner!"
His watermelon-sized fists collided, producing a series of bangs!
Hmm?
Lin Fan frowned. He kept feeling that something was off about Xiang Yunjie's words, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
Still, he put away his Sage weapon, for no other reason than wanting to test just how powerful his physical strength had become after cultivating the Ancient God Body Refining Art.
"Hehe, this punch of mine will be fierce. Bear with it!"
Seeing Lin Fan put away his Sage weapon, Xiang Yunjie's physical presence surged. His Firmament Divine Body erupted without restraint, coating him in a pale-blue halo as he impatiently charged in.
It was as though he were saying, "Here I come, baby!"
Boom!
A terrifying presence radiated behind him as a hundred-foot phantom appeared. The man wore aqua-blue battle armor, dignified and solemn, like an ancient god of war.
This was the true form of the first-generation Firmament Divine Body, the Firmament War God Phenomenon!
Watching Xiang Yunjie charge toward him, Lin Fan remained calm. His black hair danced without wind, his entire body wreathed in mysterious black-and-white chaos divine light. His golden blood Qi surged as his Chaos Gods and Devils Body and Ancient God Body Refining Art operated at full power.
"A divine body phenomenon?"
"Let me show you what a true divine body phenomenon is."
As he finished speaking, Xiang Yunjie witnessed the most unforgettable sight of his life. A roar of gods and devils seemed to sound from ancient times behind Lin Fan. Three thousand gods and devils appeared, all striking toward him together.
Boom!
Faced with such a horrifying sight, Xiang Yunjie exclaimed in shock, "It's actually the Chaos Gods and Devils Body..."
His own hundred-foot Firmament War God was as insignificant as an ant before the enormous gods and devils. Fear couldn't help rising in his heart.
Unable to withstand even a single blow, Xiang Yunjie felt only an indescribably tremendous force, like an entire universe crashing into his body.
Powerless to resist, he flew backward like a kite with its string cut.
Blood scattered across the sky!
Xiang Yunjie slammed heavily into the ground, shuddered, and then ceased breathing.
Although Xiang Yunjie hadn't attacked alongside the imperial clans just now, Lin Fan had already sentenced him to death for bringing out the concealment formation earlier!
Lin Fan shook out his fist and said with some disappointment, "You talked such a big game, and that's it?"
As he spoke, he didn't forget to activate the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art, devouring the dozen-plus dead imperial clan prodigies and draining their blood Qi, spiritual power, and everything else clean. Only a dozen-plus dried corpses remained on the ground.
His Chaos Gods and Devils Body also devoured the origin of Xiang Yunjie's Firmament Divine Body, feeding it back into the Chaos Gods and Devils Body and strengthening his physique somewhat.
[Ding! The host instantly killed a dozen-plus imperial clan prodigies above his realm and blasted Xiang Yunjie apart, meeting the criteria for villainous behavior. Awarded Villain Points x25,000, Sword Intent Comprehension Card x1] Sword Intent Comprehension Card: Use to comprehend Sword Intent!
Lin Fan was delighted. He hadn't expected that killing a few scrubs would bring an unexpected reward!
Intent!
Intent was something one only had a chance to comprehend in the Purple Mansion Realm. It was a power superior to Gang Qi, symbolizing the might of the Purple Mansion Realm.
Compared with ordinary Gang Qi, "Intent" was not only more powerful, but also contained profound martial essence and a unique understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.
Cultivators could fuse their own presence, state of mind, and insights into martial arts into one. Every move seemed to carry an indescribable divine charm, unleashing techniques that inspired endless amazement.
Lin Fan said, "Use the Sword Intent Comprehension Card!"
A sharp Sword Intent flashed through Lin Fan's eyes!
Suddenly, Lin Fan looked toward a patch of grass nearby, his gaze sharp as he shouted, "Who's there? Hiding your head and showing your tail!"
"Hehehe!"
Suddenly, a clear, ethereal sound drifted out of the thick grass, like the sweet chime of a string of silver bells.
Immediately afterward, two graceful figures could be seen slowly emerging from the grass.
The woman in front wore an elegant, pale-purple immortal dress that fluttered in the wind like rosy clouds. Her skin was as white as snow, as fine and smooth as mutton-fat white jade; tall, slender, and graceful, she seemed to tread light dance steps with every stride, her every gesture displaying elegance.
The woman behind her looked somewhat more ordinary, rather like her maid.
The purple-dressed woman looked at Lin Fan with her large eyes, a trace of arrogance between her brows. She showed no fear of his hostility at all, seemingly very interested in this monstrous genius whose fame resounded across the three thousand provinces.
"You must be the Lin Clan's imperial scion?"
The two had arrived here earlier and personally witnessed Lin Fan slaying the dozen-plus prodigies, yet their expressions were very calm.
Lin Fan nodded without speaking.
Nangong Yu'er smiled. "I am Nangong Yu'er of the Nangong Clan. I was merely passing through and happened to see you display your divine might, young master. I mean you no harm!"
Lin Fan had naturally heard of the Nangong Clan. It was a great imperial clan of Archaic and did not count as an enemy of the Lin Clan.
Seeing that this woman wasn't from the Wang Clan or the other such clans, Lin Fan immediately lost interest. He cupped his hands toward Nangong Yu'er and was about to leave.
"By the way, young master, might you know someone named Ji Kun?"
Just then, Nangong Yu'er's voice rang out again, making Lin Fan's footsteps pause involuntarily. His brows furrowed as he looked at Nangong Yu'er. Could something have happened to Ji Kun?
