"It is still not too late for you to regret it now! Obediently hand over the spirit talisman, bow your head and admit your mistakes to my Taiyi Sect, and offer up the demonic artifact, the Yellow Spring Diagram, and I can spare your life. Otherwise, even if the Yuhua Sect's Headmaster Feng Baiyu comes, he will not be able to save you." Zhao Xuanyi, who had sacrificed the Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele, had his Eight Trigrams Purple Gold Daoist Robe fluttering as he let out a grand voice, pressing straight towards Fang Han. Although he kept saying he would leave Fang Han a way out, he did not leave the slightest chance of survival, because everyone knew that Fang Han could hand over the spirit talisman, but handing over the Yellow Spring Diagram was absolutely impossible.
"The disciples of the Taiyi Sect are all not kind-hearted individuals. If we encounter them in the future, we must absolutely be careful."
"Indeed, every minor giant of the Taiyi Sect possesses endless methods. There is a reason why our Nine Immortal Sects cannot contend against them."
"Fang Han is dead for sure! It seems I must make a move to fight for that spirit talisman! Being able to freely enter and exit the Five Elements Land. The temptation is truly too great. However, these minor giants of the Taiyi Sect, although their realms are not as high as mine, they are hidden so deeply! If I lose, wouldn't my reputation be completely ruined? Is this risk worth taking?"
Elder "Sword Madman" of the Sun and Moon Sword Sect suddenly thought in his heart.
At the same time, his gaze looked towards the elders of the other two great sword sects, only to find the gazes of the three meeting together.
It turned out that at this very moment, the thoughts of the three were surprisingly identical.
Fang Han was dead for sure, so how would they compete with the Taiyi Sect for the remaining spirit talisman? This was the thought in the hearts of the three elders of the three great sword sects at this instant, and what about the Yellow Spring Diagram? What to do with the treasures on Fang Han? Should they be returned to the Yuhua Sect later, or should this group of people swallow them? After swallowing them, how would they be distributed?
In case they fought with the Taiyi Sect, fighting alone, what if they couldn't win?
Could it be that they let the Taiyi Sect swallow the spirit talisman alone and obtain the Five Elements Land? And even obtain Dao artifacts like the Yellow Spring Diagram and the Blood Night King? Having obtained the Yellow Spring Diagram, with the strength of the Taiyi Sect, they could definitely fully refine it, then go exterminate the Yellow Spring Demonic Sect, open the Yellow Spring Treasury which was the same as the Taiyuan Immortal Mansion, and obtain the treasures within.
Then from now on, the Nine Immortal Sects would truly have to bow in submission.
The three great elders, "Sword Madman", "Volleying Single Sword Feng Feitian", and "Dan Xiaozi", were exceptionally conflicted in their hearts at this moment.
Just at the instant the three great elders were conflicted in their hearts, Fang Han and Zhao Xuanyi in the arena had already begun to exchange blows!
Responding to the aggressive Zhao Xuanyi, Fang Han had only one word! That was "Kill!". A massive roar bloomed from his throat, and the Blood Night King in his hand flew out, transforming into a blood-colored saber芒, forcefully shaking the descending "Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele".
"Seeking death!"
From Zhao Xuanyi's mouth, he continuously spat out six mouthfuls of astral qi magic power. Chi chi chi chi… The eyes on the Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele shot out six rays of light, instantly illuminating the main body of the Demonic Saber Blood Firmament.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The Demonic Saber Blood Firmament and the Blood Night King were immediately trapped by the light, struggling vigorously, but unexpectedly unable to move! If it were one divine stele, he could cleave it open with a saber, because he was a Dao artifact! The divine stele was merely a peerless treasure artifact! But now there were six divine steles! And the six were connected, forming an incomparably mysterious God-Sealing Great Array! From a mysterious void, it drew in endless mysterious power, forcibly suppressing him!
The Blood Night King was instantly suppressed!
Fang Han did not even blink an eye; a cruel smile appeared on his face, a smile that made one's hair stand on end. Only to see a Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand suddenly appear above the Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele, forcefully shaking the divine stele and slamming down along with the momentum!
Rumble!
The six great divine steles were instantly smacked until the array's operation became sluggish! The Blood Night King seized the opportunity to activate his power within, blood light surging violently! Piercing through the air: "Blood Rain Firmament!"
"Bang bang bang…" Bang bang bang!
The Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele was shaken away!
Under the joint efforts of the Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand and the Blood Night King, the Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele was shaken open! The Blood Night King was a Dao artifact after all, and the Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand was a demon hand forged by the Ghost Emperor of the tenth level of Divine Abilities over his entire life, especially since this demon hand had integrated the Heaven-Obscuring Demonic Art, and when Fang Han cultivated the Five Emperors Great Demon Divine Ability and advanced to the Unity Realm, the sixth level of Divine Abilities, it merged with Fang Han's bloodline, making its power even greater!
Two great treasures, majestic in power. The Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele was not a Dao artifact after all, and it was impossible for it to suppress both the Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand and the Blood Night King!
"Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand!"
"The Ghost Emperor's Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand! How is it in his hands!"
Instantly, the knowledgeable elders of the three great sword sects cried out. The complexions of Song Weiyi, Zhu Yangyi, Wang Tianyi… and others abruptly changed. Seeing this, Zhao Xuanyi also fiercely spat out astral qi, attempting to gather the Six-Eyed God-Sealing Stele once more! At the same time, he swung his large sleeve, and a streak of astral qi condensed into something resembling a shield, erected in front of him.
Clang!
Little did he know, a massive bow suddenly appeared in Fang Han's hand! A long arrow! Falling Star Bow! Shooting Star Arrow! Peerless treasure artifacts! Among the Forty Great Thieves of the Overseas, the most powerful magical treasure of the Star Extinguishing Thief. This bow and arrow had no defensive power, nor did it have other methods. The only formidable thing about it was its astonishing lethality! It specifically broke Daoist astral qi and Daoist self-defense magical treasures; its penetrating power was unparalleled!
Fang Han spat a mouthful of magic power onto it. Instantly, endless starlight condensed on the bow body and arrow shaft, forming a spiral vortex, just like a star river vortex.
Boom! Boom! Boom! …
It was as if thousands of qi thunderbolts exploded together, the bowstring resonated explosively, and the Shooting Star Arrow tore through the long sky!
Just one arrow! It struck and shattered the shield condensed from Zhao Xuanyi's astral qi! Following that, the treasure light emitted by the Dharma robe on Zhao Xuanyi's body also shattered one after another.
The Eight Trigrams Purple Gold Daoist Robe disintegrated inch by inch, rustling as it turned into pieces of butterflies dancing in the air. Zhao Xuanyi's entire person was instantly left completely naked.
"Natal Golden Core!"
At this critical juncture of life and death, with a 'pu', Zhao Xuanyi unexpectedly spat out his Natal Golden Core from his mouth, colliding right against the Shooting Star Arrow. Fortunately, he had used astral qi to condense a shield beforehand, and then the Dharma robe blocked the Shooting Star Arrow for a moment. Without these two layers of defense, he would have been shot dead on the spot just now.
Once the physical body was shot dead, the Golden Core would lose control. It couldn't be compared to a Heaven and Earth Dharma Form which could still escape.
"Ghost Snake Sword!"
Seeing Zhao Xuanyi spit out his Golden Core and collide it with the Shooting Star Arrow, Fang Han was vicious and malevolent, unleashing continuous killing moves step by step, absolutely not giving anyone the slightest chance to catch their breath. The Ghost Snake Sword flew out, a slippery gray radiance falling directly towards the top of Zhao Xuanyi's head, intending to cleave him in half!
The Ghost Snake Sword was the sword bitterly cultivated by the Ghost Emperor, three thousand years of the essence of the ghost path. Although it was not a Dao artifact, it was an outstanding existence among peerless treasure artifacts. Slicing down just like this, Zhao Xuanyi was already incapable of resisting!
Because his Golden Core collided with the Shooting Star Arrow, it was greatly shaken, leaving him no time to activate defensive divine abilities. He could only watch helplessly as the Ghost Snake Sword approached. In this instant, absolute horror filled his heart! He hadn't expected Fang Han to be unexpectedly this formidable. So many magical treasures! Peerless treasure artifacts emerging one after another!
"Am I going to die? No! I have cultivated the Dao for hundreds of years, forged a Golden Core, my talent is overflowing, stunning the world, and even within the Taiyi Sect, I am an outstanding figure, a minor giant, revered by who knows how many people. Dying just like this, I am not reconciled, I am not reconciled!"
Zhao Xuanyi roared madly in his heart, but it was of no avail.
"You seek death! Daring to kill a Golden Core disciple of my Taiyi Sect! Even Feng Baiyu cannot protect you!" Right in this instant, Song Weiyi, who was closest to the battlefield, made his move! Outrageously violating the agreement of a one-on-one duel! Although as a giant disciple of the number one Daoist sect in the world, he shouldn't go back on his word, it was impossible to just watch a Golden Core disciple be forcibly slain like this; the loss was too great, simply irreparable. One must know that the seventh level of Divine Abilities, the Golden Core realm, could not be piled up with materials and spirit pills; it also required genius-like aptitude!
If one died, no amount of resources could make up for it.
Zhu Yangyi, Wang Tianyi, and the others were also preparing to strike, but feeling Song Weiyi move, they held themselves back. Because Song Weiyi could save the person, and after saving the person, at most Song Weiyi would receive some punishment. If they all attacked in a swarm, once word got out, the Taiyi Sect would bear a "shameless" title, which would sound truly unpleasant.
Song Weiyi attacked, aiming straight for the Ghost Snake Sword. From his mouth, a small white sword spat out, fast as lightning, as if reacting to a single thought. The small white sword entangled the Ghost Snake Sword.
The Ghost Snake Sword was originally incomparably slippery, but it was forcibly entangled by this small white sword.
"Mind Sword!"
The elders of the several great sword sects were knowledgeable, and their minds fiercely stirred, because this small white sword was not made of metal, but a special divine ability. Condensing the mind and spirit, wielding sword intent, it was a sword born from the bones of the body, incomparably agile. Any expert who had forged a Mind Sword would be superior in strength when fighting with swords against others. Only those who had forged a Mind Sword were true sword cultivators.
Originally, when the Taiyi Sect went back on their word, they were going to stop it, but this exchange happened in a flash of lightning, as fast as a rabbit bolting or a falcon diving, unbelievably fast. Moreover, they simply had no intention of interfering.
In a flash! The moment Song Weiyi used the Mind Sword to entangle the Ghost Snake Sword, with a wave of his massive sleeve, a string of purple lights struck towards Fang Han. These purple lights were like grapes, extremely inconspicuous! Yet they were the Purple Qi Thunderbolt Seeds of the Taiyi Sect, whose name shook both the immortal and demonic paths! As one-time use divine thunders, their explosive power was immense, capable of shattering even treasure artifacts!
However, just as this string of purple lights flew over, the Yellow Spring Diagram on Fang Han's body flew out. A black gateway opened, directly swallowing the Purple Qi Thunderbolt Seeds.
"Die!"
As the Yellow Spring Diagram swallowed the Purple Qi Thunderbolt Seeds, a ruthless smile appeared on Song Weiyi's face. Suddenly, his own Natal Golden Core rushed out from the top of his head, crashing towards Fang Han like a shooting star. He used the Purple Qi Thunderbolt Seeds to lure out Fang Han's Yellow Spring Diagram, and then used the Golden Core to strike, preparing to completely kill Fang Han!
In this split second, using the Mind Sword to save someone, the Purple Qi Thunderbolt Seeds to hold back the Yellow Spring Diagram, and finally the Golden Core to kill! The three moves were completed in one breath, making a feint to the east while attacking the west, the tactics applied brilliantly. And within such a short time, scheming step by step, Song Weiyi was truly worthy of being a minor giant! An outstanding disciple of the Taiyi Sect, a peerless genius!
"You are forcing me! You are seeking death!"
As the Golden Core flew over, Fang Han smiled malevolently and roared wildly. The "Natal Talisman" suddenly flew out from the top of his head, a natal talisman condensed from fifty-five great divine abilities, a supreme divine talisman based on the Five Emperors Great Demon Divine Ability.
As soon as this talisman appeared, brilliant light radiated in all directions. The countless auspicious lights upon it condensed into tiny golden-armored heavenly deities. From the void came the blowing of great Dharma conchs, the beating of great Dharma drums, and boundless sounds of Sanskrit chanting and praise!
"Bang!"
Song Weiyi's Golden Core clashed against this "Natal Talisman", as if striking an iron plate. With a crack, a few cracks appeared on the Golden Core! Experiencing telepathic feedback, with a 'wa', he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood!
"Come back, Golden Core!" Song Weiyi didn't know what had happened, but he still knew to make the Golden Core return. He naturally couldn't bear to self-detonate his own Golden Core. If he were a bit more ruthless at this moment, giving up everything and detonating the Golden Core, it might have been useful.
However, retracting the Golden Core was too late.
Fang Han's Natal Talisman was surprisingly even faster than his Golden Core, whoosh! It overtook the Golden Core and completely enveloped the bodies of him and Zhao Xuanyi, violently wringing them!
Crunch!
Blood light exploded outwards! The bodies of the two, in an instant, turned into minced meat! The Five Elements Divine Thunders continuously exploded within, vibrating repeatedly. Just one strike annihilated the residue of the two's bodies, and even every trace of lingering consciousness, completely. In the void, the sounds of beating great Dharma drums and blowing great Dharma conchs were transmitted once again.
Simultaneously, the two Golden Cores spun dizzyingly in the air, unexpectedly having no time to self-detonate.
Because the two were annihilated too quickly, they themselves didn't expect Fang Han's Natal Talisman to be so powerful. In the blink of an eye, it completely instant-killed them.
Actually, even if experts had their physical bodies instantly wrung into flying ash, they still had a trace of lingering will, enough to self-detonate their Golden Cores. However, the Five Emperors Great Demon Divine Ability within Fang Han's Natal Talisman was truly too fast, plus Song Weiyi and Zhao Xuanyi didn't believe they would die just like that. They unexpectedly had no time to detonate their Golden Cores and perish together with Fang Han!
Of course, what was even more formidable was that Fang Han's talisman contained the Black Emperor Water Emperor Fist, which included the Water of Forgetfulness. Under the wringing slaughter, any thoughts Song Weiyi and Zhao Xuanyi had of self-detonation were also destroyed. This was also the main reason they couldn't detonate.
Zhao Xuanyi, Song Weiyi, the two great experts of the Taiyi Sect, thoroughly disappeared from the world just like this. In any time or space, any corner, the slightest trace of their existence could not be found.
Only two Golden Cores floated lonely in the air. Announcing to everyone that their masters were dead.
"Eating your words and growing fat! In front of so many people, breaking your own promise, now no matter where I speak of this, I have sufficient justification. If the Yuhua Sect expels me because of this, then Feng Baiyu will never be able to lift his head for all eternity." With a wave of Fang Han's hand, the two Golden Cores dropped dizzyingly into his pouch. At the same time, the "Mind Sword" and the six "Six-Eyed God-Sealing Steles" were already enveloped by Yan and the Blood Night King, and pulled into the Yellow Spring Diagram.
Originally, on the bodies of Zhao Xuanyi and Song Weiyi, there were also magical treasure pouches, but they were enveloped by Fang Han's Natal Talisman and directly crushed. The countless magic crystal jade stones, pills, and some treasure artifacts inside all vanished into nothingness, being refined by the Five Elements Divine Thunders into the purest vital qi and dust, either dispersing, or if useful, being directly absorbed.
With the current power of Fang Han's Natal Talisman, under one wring, even the main bodies of the Blood Night King and the Sun Moon Five Stars Bracelet would rupture. Although they wouldn't be completely destroyed and turned to dust, the damage would be massive, requiring an expert of the Longevity Secret Realm to re-refine them for many years before they could recover.
Let alone ordinary treasure artifacts.
A surge of pure spatial power was transmitted into Fang Han's talisman, and instantly, the Great Cutting Technique divine ability within suddenly began to operate, its power elevating significantly.
"Hmm? So crushing hundred treasure pouches can also increase the power of the Great Cutting Technique? That's right, hundred treasure pouches are refined from void crystals and contain spatial power inside. It seems this is an excellent method for practicing. If I can find a massive amount of void crystals, I can definitely cultivate the Great Cutting Technique to grand completion! The lethality of this Natal Talisman will increase by another level."
Fang Han's heart stirred.
The crushing of the magical treasure pouches of the two great Golden Core experts provided power for his Great Cutting Technique, something he hadn't considered before. This divine ability, the Great Cutting Technique, was an advanced magical art within the demonic path, standing on equal footing with the Great Collapse Technique; it cut and assembled space. Silently and without a trace, tearing apart the human body. Not even magical treasures were spared.
Fang Han very much wanted to cultivate it to completion, but he had no time. Now knowing that void crystals could enhance its power, he had an objective.
However, void crystals were extremely precious, who knew how many times more precious than magic crystal jade stones.
Otherwise, an item like a hundred treasure pouch wouldn't casually be auctioned for a sky-high price of hundreds of thousands of spirit pills at the Daxuan Empire's treasure selling convention. For Fang Han to cultivate the Great Cutting Technique to completion, he would need at least hundreds of thousands, a million void crystal hundred treasure pouches to absorb.
"Rumor has it that the Taiyi Sect discovered a star composed entirely of void crystals. If I were to quietly sneak in, I'm afraid in just a few days, the Great Cutting Technique could reach grand completion."
Fang Han's mind flashed like lightning, instantly churning with numerous thoughts, rising one after another.
However, this was all a matter of an instant. The people outside only saw Fang Han suddenly fly out a "Natal Talisman", which unexpectedly rebounded Song Weiyi's Golden Core, causing it to crack upon collision. Subsequently, Song Weiyi retracted his Golden Core, but the Natal Talisman was faster, instantly enveloping them. The two Golden Core experts of the Taiyi Sect, minor giants, favored children of heaven, turned into flying ash!
Following that, all the magical treasures and Golden Cores were collected by Fang Han.
The change in this scene was too shocking! Too unbelievable! No one would believe this scene. Even fewer people believed that Fang Han's Natal Talisman would be powerful to such an extent!
The scene fell into a deathly silence for several breaths. Everyone, including the experts of the Taiyi Sect, felt this wasn't real, it must be an illusion cast by someone else. Golden Core experts, minor giants, favored children of heaven, how could they be so easily killed? And they didn't even have time to self-detonate their Golden Cores?
"Raining great Dharma rain, blowing great Dharma conchs, beating great Dharma drums! What a majestic foundation this is! He has the aptitude to become an immortal! His Natal Talisman surprisingly contains fifty-five great divine abilities! How was this forged? Would he not explode and die? Rumor has it that the Five Emperors Great Demon Divine Ability can rival a doomsday natural disaster. I have always disbelieved it, but looking at it now, it's truly so, it's truly so. No wonder the Yellow Spring Great Emperor could command the demonic path!"
Suddenly, Elder Sword Madman jumped up and shouted, breaking the deathly silence of the scene!
"Raining great Dharma rain, blowing great Dharma conchs, beating great Dharma drums! The Yuhua Sect has produced a peerless genius, a genius with even better aptitude than Hua Tiandu. An unmatched genius!"
Elder "Volleying Single Sword Feng Feitian" of the Heaven Reaching Sword Sect and Elder "Dan Xiaozi" of the Pill Cauldron Sword Sect also cried out involuntarily, their eyes filled with utter envy, shock, and jealousy.
"Hmph! Your Taiyi Sect actually did not keep its promise, two people besieging me alone. Could it be you really thought I was a kind-hearted individual! I'll tell you, the Ghost Emperor of the Yellow Spring Demonic Sect was slain by me because he coveted my Yellow Spring Diagram, and I collected his Nine Ghosts Nascent Soul! Obtaining his Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand and Ghost Snake Sword. Thinking to kill me alongside him were also the Star Extinguishing Thief, Moon Piercing Thief, and Immortal Slaying Thief from the Overseas Forty Great Thieves. The Star Extinguishing Thief and Moon Piercing Thief were both killed by me, and the Immortal Slaying Thief fled! What do you all think?"
Fang Han shouted sternly, his voice incomparably piercing, stabbing through people's eardrums like a sharp sword.
"The Ghost Emperor was truly killed by you? Impossible, impossible… His demonic arts borderline the Longevity Secret Realm, cultivating for three thousand years…" Elder Sword Madman cried out, subsequently, his voice weakened again: "That Heaven-Obscuring Demon Hand and Ghost Snake Sword are indeed his things, without a doubt. How could you possibly kill even the Ghost Emperor! Impossible."
With this exchange, the numerous disciples of the Taiyi Sect finally woke up from their shock, truly understanding that Song Weiyi and Zhao Xuanyi, these two minor giants, favored children of heaven, were truly dead, not an illusion.
How many years had it been?
A Golden Core expert of the Taiyi Sect had actually been killed?
A bizarre and crushing humiliation!
A bizarre and crushing humiliation!
Even back then when the Demon Commander killed three true inheritance disciples, and several minor giants went to the mountain gate of the Innate Demonic Sect, a supreme demonic emperor like the Innate Great Emperor did not dare to strike a killing blow against the Golden Core disciples! Otherwise, the Taiyi Sect would mobilize immortal artifacts to eliminate demons! Thoroughly exterminate the Innate Demonic Sect! Leaving none alive!
"Ah!" Ah! Ah!
…
Wang Tianyi and Zhu Yangyi, these two disciples who had passed the Wind and Fire Tribulation and cultivated to the eighth level of Divine Abilities, let out miserable screams like injured beasts, howling wildly. The rest of the Golden Core disciples also let out shrill sounds like wolves on a moonlit night, or like cuckoos weeping blood and apes wailing in grief.
Eyes blood red!
All the Taiyi Sect disciples' eyes were blood red!
This was an unbearable weight, and also an unbearable pain! And even more so, an unbearable loss! Two minor giants of the seventh level of Divine Abilities, Golden Core experts, killed on the spot. This was equivalent to heavily slapping the face of the Taiyi Sect's headmaster and all its disciples!
"Fang Han! You dare kill Golden Core disciples of my Taiyi Sect! From this moment on, you are dead for sure, dead for sure! In the heavens above or the earth below, not a single person can save you! Even if a true immortal descended to the mortal realm, they could not save your life. At this very moment, your death is destined!"
Wang Tianyi was in the air, taking steps, closing in step by step.
Fang Han did not move a single hair, only saying to Elder Sword Madman and the others: "What was said just now, a life and death magical duel, leaving it to fate. If one dies, they blame their own unrefined skills, and no sect may seek trouble. Furthermore, just now the Taiyi Sect went back on its word, two people making a sneak attack. This is already inferior to the most despicable and lowly demonic path. How do you three great sword sects see this?"
"This…"
Elder Sword Madman, Dan Xiaozi, Volleying Single Sword Feng Feitian, as well as all the disciples of the three great sword sects, blanked out for a moment. Truth be told, with two great Golden Cores of the Taiyi Sect dead, they were all secretly delighted in their hearts. However, this matter had blown up too greatly. By logic, it was the Taiyi Sect completely utilizing unrestricted means, not acting in good faith, worse than the demonic path. After all, the demonic path still valued reputation, and the several demonic emperors always kept their word.
Actually, they really wanted to stay out of the matter, but to just ignore it like this, they would lose all face, no different from the ruffians in the secular world. If word got out, they would also be called weak and incompetent within their sects.
After thinking for a moment, Elder Sword Madman suddenly sent out a streak of sword light, blocking the path of the Taiyi Sect disciples: "Everyone, this matter is grave. Moreover, the Taiyi Sect stated beforehand that life and death were up to fate, and both sides agreed. For you to first break the agreement and have two people besiege Fang Han was already in the wrong. Now suffering a counterattack and dying unnatural deaths is just bad luck, merely a pity. For everyone to attack and retaliate again is truly disregarding the dignity and grace of a grand immortal Dao sect. How about this, you all return and report to your noble sect's headmaster, then make a decision, to avoid the matter blowing up bigger and becoming unmanageable."
