CHAPTER 291: CHAPTER 286 KILLING

On West Emperor Island, the entire island was engulfed in the flames of war. A glance revealed countless demons.

In a certain place, sword light blazed brilliantly, flying swords whistled through the air continuously, killing demons under their edge and extracting Demon Cores.

"Master, that human Sword Cultivator seems quite powerful." In the sky, a group of demonic figures stood, eyes sweeping towards Li Fan’s location, watching as he relentlessly hunted demons.

The leading demon had a human head and a snake body, with a vertical line on its forehead emitting a strange aura. It was a peak demon in the Fifth Realms, tasked with overseeing a region’s demons, considered a local leader.

"He seems to have a Magical Treasure, go kill him." The Snake Demon’s voice was cold.

"Yes, Master." A group of demons in the Fifth Realms sped swiftly towards that area.

Li Fan was busy killing demons, his flying sword swooped, slaying demons and continuing to collect Demon Cores. Behind him, Luo Qingyan, Meng Hong, and others fought with great fervor. Meng Hong laughed loudly, saying, "I’ve never killed demons so joyously; now the island is full of demons, who knows how many Demon Cores there might be."

"Have you been influenced by that guy too?" Luo Qingyan gave him a sidelong glance. When the demons attacked the island, shouldn’t the first thought be about survival?

"Watch out over there." At this moment, Sun Zhao warned, his eyes looking towards a certain direction, seeing there a group of Fifth Realms demons heading towards Li Fan.

Li Fan naturally saw those approaching demons. The Fifth Realms demons moved extremely fast, scattering and encircling his direction.

"Go..."

Li Fan turned around and fled just as he finished speaking.

"Trying to escape?" The demons’ eyes were cold, speeding up to chase after Li Fan, while the distant flying Snake Demon moved forward with evil, cold eyes.

Li Fan sped along, Sword Control technique propelling him, surrounded by Sword Aura, activating the Heavenly Essence Sword Body, making him seem like a drawn sword.

Meanwhile, Li Fan extended his left hand, silently grasping a broken sword in his palm.

Although he could slay these demons, he did not plan to waste too much time and effort. The situation they faced was not very optimistic and might turn into a prolonged battle, so he needed to conserve strength and avoid excessive exertion.

"Buzz..."

Seen, tentacles continuously extended towards Li Fan, swiftly wrapping around and tightly constricting him, pulling him back. The demon opened its mouth, sneering, "Where are you going, human brat?"

The tentacles pulled Li Fan towards it, but suddenly blood spurted out, as he severed the tentacles instantly with a spinning slash of his sword. With a swoosh, a demon’s head flew up, as a flying sword drilled into its body, extracting the Demon Core.

The surrounding attacking demons were stunned, and then a giant demon hand descended on Li Fan, filled with overpowering force, larger than Li Fan himself, as if it could crush him easily.

Li Fan still did not dodge, driving the broken sword into the demonic palm, piercing it instantly, and following the arm into the body. The demon’s expression turned horrified, seeing the broken sword emerge from its chest, breaking a large hole, the sword bringing out the Demon Core, causing the demon’s aura to rapidly wither away.

"Be careful of his Magical Treasure, that broken sword." A loud shout echoed, the surrounding demons intended to rush forward but were held at bay by Li Fan’s intimidating presence.

Was that broken sword really so sharp?

The demons knew the strength and defense of the slain demon, yet it had no resistance, pierced and killed directly by the broken sword.

This sword was among those Li Fan obtained from the legacy within Xuanyuan Arena’s Secret Realm, alongside the Heavenly Essence Sword Scripture and Thousand Soul Sword Canon, left behind likely by the realm’s owner, its sharpness could be imagined.

"Freeze him." A demon spoke in human language, an extreme chill descending, the space around Li Fan seemed to freeze, his body covered in ice, becoming immobile at once.

"After all, a human in the Foundation Establishment Realm, though the Magical Treasure is not bad, let’s see what it is." The demons sneered and approached, eyes reflecting contempt.

Even relying on the Magical Treasure’s power to kill their two companions, his own realm was still too weak.

"He is my spoils." A female demon, fastest among them, scaled with fish-like scales, approached Li Fan twisting her body.

"This treasure should be offered to the Master." Another demon smiled, causing the female demon to glare at him—using her spoils for contribution?

Several demons reached Li Fan simultaneously, reaching out towards him.

Crack...

The ice shattered instantly, a violent Sword Intent swept out, the demons’ expressions changed as they retreated, seeing the broken sword cutting through the void, with sounds of tearing in succession, blood spilling, as demon heads were instantly penetrated.

"As expected of a demon, a bunch of fools." Meng Hong cursed from afar, the brothers of Qingshan could have killed these demons openly, but chose to scheme against them for convenience.

After Li Fan killed these demons, he continued to control his sword and depart.

Behind him, a peak Fifth Realm Snake Demon swiftly chased after him.

"Master." Another demon that hadn’t been killed called out, then followed the Snake Demon in pursuit. He glanced back at the fallen corpses, all had their Demon Cores excavated, revealing a look of hatred and wariness in his eyes towards the insidious, deceitful human cultivators.

A Foundation Establishment Cultivator, relying on the advantage of a Magical Treasure, had caused them such a violent slaughter.

The Snake Demon moved extremely fast, its gaze fixed on Li Fan’s left hand. It had been observing; although Li Fan was only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, his combat strength was not weak, given he could break through the ice seal, indicating his combat strength was comparable to a Condensed Core Realm Qi Cultivator.

Of course, the main reason he could kill those demons was still that invincible broken sword.

Just a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator possessing such a Magical Treasure.

Li Fan controlled his sword at extreme speed but soon felt a powerful sense of oppression approaching. Looking up, he saw a massive Snake Demon staring at him, its vertical pupil like an eye, from which shot a beam of Thunder Light.

A Sword Veil suddenly appeared in front of Li Fan, the thunder beam crashing onto the Sword Veil instantly shattering it, the Thunder Power continued to blast towards Li Fan.

Li Fan’s body moved like a gust of wind, yet the cold vertical pupil swept across, and the thunder beam seemed to morph into a Thunder Sword slicing through space.

Even if he wasn’t afraid, the broken sword could threaten him, so the Snake Demon planned to kill the human from a distance.

Li Fan’s speed reached its limit, creating afterimages, causing the Snake Demon’s bizarre eyes to reveal a look of surprise, how could this human in the Foundation Establishment Realm have such proficient movement technique?

In an instant, he felt as if Li Fan could traverse space out of thin air, it should be a Secret Technique of the human Qi Cultivators.

However, still destined to die!

Above Li Fan’s head, thunderclouds densely covered the sky like an apocalyptic tribulation, countless thunder lights descended, sealing the entire area with no escape.

"Boom..." a thunderbolt struck Li Fan’s body, causing him to groan, his entire body paralyzed.

A peak Fifth Realm Demon, comparable to the Late-stage of Condensation, yet he was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm, a difference of a whole Great Realm, under such disparity, the opponent’s attack could easily injure him.

"Die." The Snake Demon’s sinister eyes coldly appeared, a beam of light slashed down like a Thunder Sword cleaving from the sky, but suddenly Li Fan’s body turned into several incarnations.

The Thunder Light descended, annihilating one incarnation, yet the remaining incarnations quickly rushed towards the Snake Demon’s direction, even the broken sword disappeared.

"Hmm?"

The Snake Demon was momentarily unable to discern which was the true body.

Its vertical pupil widened, Thunder Light angrily swept across, simultaneously countless thunder strikes targeted below, only seeing Li Fan’s incarnations constantly being destroyed, but the remaining incarnations continuously advanced upward, slashing out with swords.

"Boom..." on one body, a flying sword traveled like shocking thunder, breaking through space, the Snake Demon’s eyes instantly locked onto it, the vertical eye fell upon that flash of sword light.

Almost simultaneously, behind the flying sword, a broken sword pierced through space, brushing against the descending Thunder Light’s slaughter up.

The Snake Demon locked onto that flash of sword light, but the broken sword disappeared out of thin air, "Pssh..." the Snake Demon’s vertical eye was instantly pierced through.

The Snake Demon was shocked in its heart, the broken sword pierced into its head, grinding, its consciousness gradually blurred, filled with unwillingness, how was that one strike achieved?

It had been killed by a human cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

The broken sword shattered the Snake Demon’s head, then broke into its body, extracting the Demon Core, collecting it into a gourd.

The Sword Seed flew back, Li Fan’s head felt slightly dizzy, his Divine Soul was somewhat damaged, but using the broken sword to kill a peak Fifth Realm demon wasn’t a loss.

He looked ahead, seeing the demon that was tailing him now killed by Meng Hong and the others.

"Go."

Li Fan said, then swiftly flew away from the area, advancing along the way to continue slaying demons, heading towards the sea to cultivate and transcend once he killed enough demons.
