Sword Aura to the Heavens
Chapter 286 - 281 Crisis
CHAPTER 286: CHAPTER 281 CRISIS
The mighty Thunder Palm Seal descended, obscuring the area below. Luo Qingyan, Meng Hong, and the others felt its oppressive force shaking their hearts. This Nan Zhengchuan is indeed worthy of being a prodigy of the West Emperor Palace. If they had to face such an attack technique, it would surely be unsolvable.
However, Nan Zhengchuan may find it not so easy to defeat Li Fan.
Li Fan’s body was surrounded by surging Sword Aura, forming a Sword Array that hovered above his head. The pattern of the Sword Formation Map flowed, gathering a giant sword in the center, containing the Star Sword Intent.
This sword rose against the tide, piercing through the descending Hand Seal. Every Thunder Palm Seal that struck the giant sword created a halo of destruction that swept outwards.
Nan Zhengchuan looked down at the ground below, seeing that Li Fan blocked his attack. His thunderous eyes flashed differently as he coldly said, "No wonder you’re so arrogant, you do have some strength."
But still, it’s a dead end for you.
"On this West Emperor Island, an outsider like you shouldn’t be so arrogant." As Nan Zhengchuan’s words fell, the Thunder God-like figure behind him seemed to merge with his body, emanating an extremely domineering pressure downward.
Electric sparks scattered from his body, blood energy pouring out, forming Protective Thunder Light, like a deity.
"Nan Zhengchuan is not only a Qi Cultivator in the Condensed Core Realm but has also achieved the Golden Body Realm in Martial Arts." Meng Hong said from the side, and Li Fan felt a stronger sense of oppression as it came over him.
With a single thought, the Sword Array surrounding his body integrated into him, transforming into the Heavenly Essence Sword Body. The sound of dragons echoed as a huge Sword Map circled behind him, with a True Dragon entwined within.
The scene was exceptionally magnificent, even Song Siyu of the Condensed Core Realm displayed a glimmer in her beautiful eyes at the sight. This person’s Sword Dao talent was surprisingly high.
Even on par with hers...
"Prepare to die."
As Nan Zhengchuan’s words fell, lightning flickered, and his body rushed downward, attacking like a Thunder God incarnate. His palm faced downward, the enormous Hand Seal filled with countless rune lights. People from West Emperor Palace watching from above all looked down with disdain.
Nan Zhengchuan’s Annihilation Thunder Palm was extremely domineering, containing a hint of the True Meaning of Destruction, with thunder’s violence. Even a Condensed Core Cultivator could not withstand the power of this palm.
However, they saw that Li Fan made no attempt to evade, his body soared straight up, intending to clash directly with Nan Zhengchuan, which made cold smiles appear on their faces, as if he was truly courting death.
Li Fan surged into the sky, throwing a punch towards the Annihilation Thunder Palm, causing a violent airflow to sweep around, making Nan Zhengchuan feel as if what collided with him was not just a fist but a fusion of fist and sword.
At this moment, Li Fan had become the Heavenly Essence Sword Body, his body akin to a sword, every attack contained Sword Intent.
The Annihilation Thunder Palm cracked before shattering into pieces. Nan Zhengchuan’s eyes focused downward, only to see Li Fan continuing to charge towards him. With a lifted finger came the Heavenly Essence Sword, stabbing towards the sky.
Nan Zhengchuan roared, the Thunder True Body behind him fell with a hand, striking the sword, but just then, Li Fan’s hand also produced a sword. As he drew the sword, Ghost God was startled, and the sky opened a crack.
Nan Zhengchuan’s two palms came crashing down like mountains, blocking the sword Li Fan drew. Behind the Thunder True Body, numerous arms appeared, simultaneously striking towards Li Fan, intending to take his life.
"Go."
Li Fan shouted. Behind him, the Sword Formation Map transformed into numerous swords shooting towards the sky. The True Dragon in the Sword Array roared, rising against the tide, colliding with Nan Zhengchuan’s assault in a spectacular scene.
The people of the West Emperor Palace were unprepared for how fierce this battle had become. Nan Zhengchuan originally thought he could crush Li Fan and had not used magical treasures to attack, but he began to waver now. This person’s combat power was unexpectedly no less than his own.
As he had this thought, a flying sword suddenly pierced through the storm of destruction right before his eyes, his pupils contracted, but it was too late. Although he had long used his Dharma Form to fight, he seemed to have forgotten that his opponent was a Sword Cultivator, and a Sword Cultivator’s Sword Seed is the foundation of the Sword Cultivator.
"Pfft..."
The flying sword instantly pierced through Nan Zhengchuan’s forehead, exiting from the back of his head, bringing out blood.
"Not good." The people of the West Emperor Palace realized and rushed down, but it was too late. Swords filled the sky surging upwards, piercing through Nan Zhengchuan’s body, eradicating him on the spot.
Song Siyu’s complexion also changed dramatically, looking at this scene in shock, her heart clenched like it was being tugged, trembling fiercely.
Nan Zhengchuan, killed over her matter...
How could he dare to?
After killing Nan Zhengchuan, Li Fan landed on the broken eaves, Sword Intent surging on him. The cultivators of the West Emperor Palace caught Nan Zhengchuan’s corpse, pierced through by the Sword Aura, dead beyond dead.
"He truly killed him?" Luo Qingyan and Meng Hong and others were stunned for a moment, looking at Li Fan in shock, did he really just kill the Law Enforcement Elder’s son of the West Emperor Palace?
Not considering the Song Family and that Han Qingzi was one thing, but now, does he also disregard even the West Emperor Palace’s Law Enforcement Elder?
Thinking back to the Young Master of Jiao Demon Island, who was also killed by Li Fan, this guy...
"You..." An elder from the West Emperor Palace stared at Li Fan intently.
"It was you who urged him to act just now, right? So you too are the culprit in his death." Li Fan seemed indifferent to killing Nan Zhengchuan, his expression still calm, saying: "This person used the West Emperor Palace’s influence to recklessly commit crimes. Without knowing right from wrong, he intended to kill me, so I had to clear the West Emperor Palace’s house for them."
Song Siyu also arrived beside Nan Zhengchuan’s body, trembling slightly, Nan Zhengchuan, dead?
Died because of her Song Family’s affair.
She was naturally aware of Nan Zhengchuan’s strength, even she could only match him, absolutely could not kill him, but a Foundation Establishment Realm Sword Cultivator did it.
"Song Siyu, your brother Song Boling colluded with Old Demon Li to slaughter the island’s cultivators. I eliminated the threat for the island’s cultivators, yet you used the West Emperor Palace for personal vendettas, resulting in Nan Zhengchuan’s death. You should go back and plead guilty to the West Emperor Palace." Li Fan continued.
Song Siyu looked up at him, did she have to return to the West Emperor Palace to plead guilty?
With Nan Zhengchuan’s death, she must bear some responsibility too.
The audience watching from a distance was also astonished at everything happening here, it completely overturned their understanding.
This white-robed youth seemed to act as though all the wrongdoing was on Song Siyu and the people of the West Emperor Palace.
Yet, on what basis did he believe the West Emperor Palace would discuss right from wrong with him?
Killing Nan Zhengchuan, didn’t he realize that his end would come soon?
"Kill!"
Blood veins appeared in Song Siyu’s eyes, staring fiercely at Li Fan. Now, the only thing left was to kill Li Fan.
Just as the West Emperor Palace cultivators prepared to act, a strong sense of oppression approached. Everyone in that area looked up to the sky.
"Storm’s coming..."
Numerous gazes were fixed there, their hearts shaken.
In the distant sky, a mighty army of demons was advancing, obscuring the heavens, moving towards this side.
Across West Emperor Island, countless figures were rushing in chaos, with cultivators heading towards the direction of the West Emperor Palace, seeking refuge.
"The demon army is invading."
Seeing the scene before them, Song Siyu and the people of West Emperor Palace were shaken to the core.
"A demon army invasion." Li Fan mocked: "Amidst all this, you try to settle a personal vendetta over Song Boling’s matters, leading to Nan Zhengchuan’s death. You should go back and plead guilty to the West Emperor Palace for this." Li Fan derided.
The people from the West Emperor Palace cast a glance at him, then an elder said, "Let’s go."
With those words, he darted towards the direction of the West Emperor Palace.
Compared to Li Fan, the demon army’s invasion was far more severe. As Li Fan said, the fate of West Emperor Island was uncertain, and all the figures fled towards the West Emperor Palace in chaos for refuge.
"Kill!"
The crowd started departing, and Meng Hong looked up at the far sky, murmuring to himself, "The sky is about to change."
This was going to be a great catastrophe.
Luo Qingyan and Meng Hong exchanged a look.
"Let’s go. We also head towards the West Emperor Palace." Li Fan said, in this situation, everyone was in danger. It was impossible for them not to fight their way out, they had to go to the West Emperor Palace.
Li Fan controlled his sword to fly, and everyone quickly followed, accompanying him towards the West Emperor Palace.
After the crowd left, Meng Hong looked towards the distant sky, murmuring in a low voice, "A storm is coming."
This was going to be a great calamity.
They all moved towards the same direction, that towering White Jade Palace.
