Chapter 1068: Slaying the Deer!
Ning Fan grabbed True Person Bailu’s wrist with all his might, and the latter couldn’t break free. At such a close distance, it was impossible to avoid the sword completely, so he had to brace himself and take the sword head-on.
Fortunately, True Person Bailu discerned that the Reverse Sea Sword used by Ning Fan was not a magical treasure but a Dao Weapon. Dao Weapons often lack great power, so he was confident that his Dantian would remain unharmed!
In a moment of crisis, True Person Bailu urged his thoughts, and a piece of spirit equipment comparable to the Twelve Nirvana Magical Treasures instantly protected his whole body, shielding the Dantian with glowing spiritual light.
This spirit equipment’s defense was a paragon among the Twelve Nirvana, especially when combined with True Person Bailu’s special cultivation technique, which enhanced its defense further. It could not be penetrated by non-innate treasures, saving his life countless times during his long cultivation years.
"If it is merely a Dao Weapon, my Yantian Armor should have no problem blocking this sword’s strike from this boy. Hmph, just a mere Dao Weapon..."
Bang!
A loud crash erupted as True Person Bailu and his armor were struck by the Reverse Sea Sword’s tip, then sent flying backward, continuously spewing blood, appearing quite disheveled!
Hundreds of Baihua cultivators gasped collectively, obviously not expecting such a result from True Person Bailu’s second attack!
As True Person Bailu anticipated, his spirit armor’s defense was remarkable; non-innate treasures couldn’t breach it. The Reverse Sea Sword wasn’t known for its sharpness, so it didn’t pierce the armor.
However, True Person Bailu didn’t anticipate the weight of the Reverse Sea Sword!
The armor could withstand the sword’s edge but couldn’t disperse the overwhelming impact force from the sword’s Seven Stars Weight!
This wasn’t just a tip of a Dao Weapon piercing him!
Clearly, it felt as if several colossal cultivation stars were rolling over him!
The strong force transmitted through the armor’s defense, permeating True Person Bailu’s limbs, causing an oppressive pain in every inch of flesh and bone, with some internal injuries appearing.
Those injuries were not severe, but after several maneuvers, Ning Fan remained unharmed, whereas he sustained injuries, clearly indicating he was on the losing side.
Struggling to stabilize his body while retreating, True Person Bailu’s composed mind rippled with unease.
Not injuring Ning Fan with two strikes was one thing; but his mere Dao Weapon being so terrifying was something he’s never encountered before!
Too strange, too bizarre!
How could such an impressive Dao Weapon exist, whose weight even his Yantian Armor couldn’t fully block!
How could a mere Eternal Immortal Venerable withstand two attacks unharmed, possessing a physique even scarce among Immortal Emperors... appearing on an Immortal Venerable!
This wasn’t an Illusory Art!
His previous laughable deductions were entirely wrong!
Everything is real!
This child, this child indeed...
No! He must not be bewildered by this child’s endless tricks!
No matter how many techniques this child possesses, he is still just an Eternal Immortal Venerable. There exists an impassable chasm between an Immortal Venerable and an Immortal King. Moreover, True Person Bailu is by no means an ordinary Immortal King!
He has cultivated to the Immortal King Peak!
He will eventually break through to become an Immortal Emperor!
He bears the pride of a pinnacle Immortal King, how could he continuously suffer setbacks at the hands of a foreign cultivator!
"Ning Fan! In seven hundred and forty million years of cultivation, you are the most formidable Immortal Venerable I’ve encountered. Yet regrettably, today you must die! You have many techniques, but I possess numerous methods as well. Today, I will let you witness what pinnacle immortality truly is..."
Before completing his sentence, True Person Bailu’s expression suddenly altered, for Ning Fan had summoned his Reverse Sea Sword, controlling it with spirit sense, slashing towards him.
Using Sword Control Technique on such a weighty Dao Weapon, won’t the spirit sense snap under the weight?
Moreover, the Reverse Sea Sword is imbued with six Dao traces, trailing long streaks of six-colored light in the air as it broke through!
"Six... six traces! All cultivated to high levels, on the verge of the Control Positions realm!"
This time, even with confidence in his spirit armor’s defense, True Person Bailu dared not face this flying sword attack head-on from the Reverse Sea Sword. He desperately retreated, trying to distance himself from the sword, while swiftly opening his storage pouch, releasing hundreds of sword lights, all Ten Nirvana or higher Acquired Immortal Swords, with seven reaching Twelve Nirvana level!
True Person Bailu imbued all flying swords with the Dao traces he had long comprehended, then with a pinch of his fingers, the flow of light from hundreds of immortal swords combined into a massive sword map, painted with various Buddha figures, radiant treasures, and as soon as the sword map formed, it plunged towards the Reverse Sea Sword!
The sword pressure between heaven and earth, instantaneously transformed into a storm, sweeping the entire barren land!
"Great Seal Sword Forbidden!"
True Person Bailu shouted sternly!
This strike nearly utilized all the flying swords he possessed, a divine skill specially crafted by the Holy Mountain Buddha Sect to subdue swords with swords!
The massive sword map extended across the heavens, its sealing sword power confronting any Twelve Nirvana flying sword attack with ease. However, this inscrutably powerful sword map was directly split into two halves by a single slash of the Reverse Sea Sword!
The sword map shattered!
Tattered remains of hundreds of flying swords, including Twelve Nirvana Flying Swords, fell from the sky, reduced to nothing under the Reverse Sea Sword’s six-colored slashing!
"Moreover, the high-grade Acquired Immortal Sword’s Great Seal Sword Forbidden couldn’t block a single Dao Weapon!" The Baihua disciples present stared at the Reverse Sea Sword in shock.
True Person Bailu grew even more alarmed and pained, as in duels between Immortal Venerable and Immortal King levels, one Twelve Nirvana Treasure could sway the outcome, yet he lost seven Twelve Nirvana Immortal Swords in a single encounter...
It was a significant loss!
The mere Dao Weapon, enhanced with six Dao traces, displayed terrifying power!
The treasures were shattered in a glance, his physical body must not be directly struck by this sword!
No holding back!
"Manifest True Bailu Avatar!"
With a sudden jolt, True Person Bailu transformed within the golden light spanning thousands of meters into a giant white deer, a hundred meters tall and clad in golden armor.
This was the law phase of his Eternal True Body!
Upon revealing the Eternal True Body, True Person Bailu’s cultivation surged from the Immortal King Peak, rapidly approaching Immortal Emperor levels. His massive antlers emitted dazzling golden light, fearlessly charging towards the Reverse Sea Sword!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In merely an eye’s blink, the antlers clashed fiercely with the Reverse Sea Sword over a hundred times, the antlers of his Eternal True Body being one of True Person Bailu’s ace attacks, his confidence. In previous duels of equal rank, a single blow often decided the outcome, yet the present scene... only resulted in a draw with the Reverse Sea Sword!
The strength of this sword exceeded his expectations!
The constant collision between six-colored slashes and golden horn strikes produced vibrant brilliance, replacing all the colors of the barren land. The powerful shockwaves compelled the Baihua disciples to retreat several hundred miles to barely withstand.
True Person Bailu’s heart sank.
Thus, he must employ the most potent attack of his Eternal True Body, to determine victory or defeat!
"[True? Mount Sumeru Palm], Eight Hundred Arhats Sky-Stamping Strike!"
The giant deer exerted explosive strength, sending the Reverse Sea Sword flying backward, then leapt onto the dome of the sky, its four hooves radiating ten thousand golden rays, deploying the divine skill of Sumeru Palmprint, focusing all its mana onto its hooves.
The overwhelming momentum it generated seemed as if, with its will, it could shatter the Heavenly Dao!
The giant deer had accumulated enough power in its four hooves, kicking wildly like a blur, and within just a few breaths, it kicked out eight hundred Sumeru Palm prints towards the ground below!
The offensive of eight hundred golden giant palms descended from the sky like a torrential rain, a divine miracle!
The aura diffused could even rival a true Sixth Calamity Immortal Emperor!
The frenzied palm prints rained down uncontrollably, covering the entire wasteland, and enveloping even the Baihua disciples who had withdrawn hundreds of miles below!
"No no no, Lord Bailu has gone mad, he intends to kill us all along with this place!"
"Run away! Flee quickly!"
"Stop! Lord, please stop!"
Screams echoed from the wasteland choked with smoke and dust, as True Person Bailu’s random Sumeru Palm print was powerful enough to explode the physical body of a Four Calamity Immortal King. At this moment, with eight hundred palm prints unleashed, the Baihua sect members below surely had no chance of surviving, reduced to flying ash by the palm prints descending from the sky!
Ning Fan looked solemnly as he put away the Reverse Sea Sword.
Facing the barrage of eight hundred Sumeru Palm prints from True Person Bailu, even with a strong physical body, he dared not recklessly take it head-on.
True Person Bailu was truly formidable, living up to the title of Pinnacle Immortal King, in the rank of Immortal Kings, there are absolutely few who could survive under his eight hundred palm prints. Among Immortal Venerables, even fewer could withstand this calamity-like attack.
However, Ning Fan was an anomaly among the Eternal Immortal Venerables.
It was true that True Person Bailu’s attack was strong, even strong enough to rival the divine skills of some Sixth Calamity Immortal Emperors, but, to no avail!
If a physical body is insufficient, Ning Fan still has the God-Extinguishing Shield! Even the Sea Demons, true Immortal Emperors, could not completely breach the defense of the God-Extinguishing Shield, True Person Bailu...could not possibly succeed!
Smoke choked the sky!
In the midst of the smoke, countless giant palm craters appeared above the barren land, countless mountains, rivers, and grasslands turned to flying ash, along with them, the Baihua Peak members accompanying True Person Bailu likewise became flying ash.
Looking at the endless smoke below, True Person Bailu gasped heavily, smiling with satisfaction.
"This boy must be dead now, haha, opposing me is indeed a sin..."
Before finishing his words, True Person Bailu’s giant beast eyes suddenly shook fiercely!
As the smoke cleared from the ground, a giant armored figure burning with golden flames emerged at the center of the ruins.
And Ning Fan, unharmed, was concealed within the golden flame giant’s body!
Unharmed!
Still unharmed!
He had even unleashed the Eight Hundred Arhats Sky-Stamping Strike, exhausting nearly seventy percent of his mana with that barrage, yet such a powerful assault did not even touch Ning Fan’s clothes!
Impossible!
He absolutely could not believe it!
"You’re not an Immortal Emperor, how can you remain unharmed under my eight hundred palm prints, why!"
"I’ve cultivated for seventy-four million years, seen countless unparalleled heroes, yet never have I encountered a freak like you! Clearly just a Foreign Cultivator, clearly just an Immortal Venerable, how can you be so strong at such a realm, I...am unconvincing!"
The giant deer opened its mouth wide, gathering golden light within, then suddenly roared out like a cannon, the golden light cannon fell from the sky with an aura of annihilation.
Just the effect of the Buddha Sect’s Lion’s Roar!
Ning Fan’s eyes showed apathy, controlling the God-Slaying Giant to roar similarly, and with a roar, the crimson Barbarian Flash struck towards the sky, colliding directly with the giant deer’s golden light cannon, thereafter evenly matched, neutralizing each other.
"I don’t believe I can’t kill you today! I borrowed a treasure from the master, initially not intending to use it, but seems like it’s unavoidable now! This is the supreme treasure left by the previous owner of Baihua Peak——Guhua Celestial Being, each petal of the Eleven Ranks Flower Emperor contains the wondrous principles of formations, combined, they form the Innate Killing Formation! If this treasure is unleashed, today, you will surely die!"
The giant deer sprayed out eleven streams of light, descending from the sky, manifested in the form of flowers carrying emperor’s aura, each a high-quality Wuyou Orchid, each contained a woman’s soul slumbering within...
Eleven Wuyou Orchids occupied separate positions, aligned with the grand momentum, and once the formation was complete, Ning Fan’s God-Slaying Giant was trapped in the center, then under the vast brilliance, a deadly formation map emerged instantly beneath Ning Fan’s feet!
"I bloom!"
With a shout from the giant deer, hundreds of billions of orchid petals, transformed by the array power, floated from the sky.
"Hundred Flower Kill!"
Each petal transformed into sharp sword fragments, whipping up a tornado-like blade storm, sealing the God-Slaying Giant within the storm.
Under hundreds of billions of slashes, despite the strong defense of the God-Slaying Giant, the golden flames on its body flickered unsteadily.
This is an Innate grade killing formation type magical treasure, the famed treasure of the Guhua Celestial Being during his lifetime, enabling him to rampage through the world!
In True Person Bailu’s view, Innate grade magical treasure was already the strongest means, wielded by a master like him in the Dao of formations, the power absolutely surpassed the Eight Hundred Arhats Sky-Stamping Strike!
Enough to kill Ning Fan!
Unfortunately, greater the expectation, often the greater the disappointment. If it were other types of Innate magical treasures, Ning Fan might have to employ some techniques to confront them, but against killing formation type Innate magical treasures, the Momentum Character Secret was just the right counter.
Witness the God-Slaying Giant stamping on the earth, countless golden flame cracks suddenly appeared on the deadly formation map, followed by golden flame seedlings shooting out continuously from those cracks, burning the entire map clean.
A majestic blade storm was so easily neutralized...
"How is it possible!" True Person Bailu almost shouted.
His most prized reliance, the Innate magical treasure, unexpectedly...unexpectedly...
Was broken by a casual stomp from Ning Fan’s God-Slaying Giant!
"To my knowledge, the first generation owner of Baihua Peak, Guhua Celestial Being, died because he failed to break through the Eternal Seventh Calamity. I acquired the memory crystals of Guhua Celestial Being’s failed tribulation in the Baihua Treasure Vault, thus knowing about this. This treasure, from your perspective, might seem like a flawless Innate magical treasure, but in reality, it isn’t complete, if it were complete, it should have been a Twelve Ranks Flower Emperor, but now it lacks one. The missing piece should be Ling Er. The Dao of formations emphasizes precision and accuracy, any even small detail omission would cause structural flaws in the formation, let alone missing one rank from a Twelve Ranks Flower Emperor. Such a huge flaw couldn’t escape my eyes, breaking this formation is naturally easy, of course, if Guhua Celestial Being had refined a complete treasure, then even I would need to exert considerable effort to break the formation..."
Ning Fan originally didn’t want to waste words with True Person Bailu.
However, suddenly encountering the relic left by Guhua Celestial Being in the mortal realm, prompted memories related to Xu Qiuling, he sighed softly, explaining.
Not explaining to True Person Bailu.
But...explaining to the women’s souls slumbering in these eleven ranks of flowers.
"These flower souls should be intertwined with Guhua Celestial Being’s life, when Guhua died, the flower souls perished. Guhua Celestial Being nourished the flowers with emotion, loved them with life, a flower fanatic of both past and present, is likely none other than Guhua Celestial Being. The reason these flower souls haven’t vanished with Guhua Celestial Being, is merely someone used divine skills to forcibly interrupt their disappearance. But these flower souls, have long died inside with Guhua Celestial Being, only wanting to seek death wholeheartedly...such resolute self-sacrificing will, I can perceive some of it..."
The God-Slaying Giant suddenly summoned the Reverse Sea Great Sword, issuing a slash towards each eleven ranks flower emperor.
The slashes were precise and delicate, not damaging the eleven ranks flower emperors at all, yet skillfully severing the restrictions preventing the flower souls from vanishing one by one.
Immediately, each flower soul, longing for death, found liberation.
Each graceful flower soul lady emerged from their respective flower emperor Wuyou Orchid, offering Ning Fan a gentle salute, seemingly in gratitude.
Then, with longing, with profound affection, one by one they dispersed into the world, their fragrance vanished, their jade perished, to follow their master and lover——Guhua Celestial Being.
As the flower souls dispersed, the eleven giant Wuyou Orchids began to wither, but with Ning Fan’s godly ability, the withering was dispelled.
Then Ning Fan collected all eleven flower emperor Wuyou Orchids.
He helped these flower soul women fade, helped them fulfill their wishes, therefore...
He took these Wuyou Orchids of flower sovereign quality, which were devoid of flower souls, as compensation for helping the women fulfill their wishes.
Mistress Qiuling’s past life, in order to help this frail little butterfly fly to the Ancient Heavenly Court, permanently lost the gold qi of her life force. Even though Ning Fan cured her illness in the Endless Sea at that time, truly helping her regain the amount of gold qi she had in her past life was very difficult.
But now, having eleven Wuyou Orchids of the flower sovereign quality changes everything.
These flowers are of the same origin and species as Mistress Qiuling, and all belong to the flower sovereign level.
Even though the flower’s soul essence has died, the life force’s gold qi within the flower remains abundant. If given to Mistress Qiuling to consume, it would likely compensate for her missing life force.
"The debts of the past life should be repaid in this life..."
Ning Fan smiled slightly and murmured to himself.
In every stance, he completely ignored True Person Bailu high above!
"What have you done! You actually released those flower souls! You actually destroyed this innate magical treasure! You deserve to die!" cried True Person Bailu in rage.
"I’m already weary of this. I just intended to use you to test the strength of a single transformation, but it seems you’ve exhausted your trump cards, so there is no point in further testing..."
The God-Slaying Giant suddenly put away the Reverse Sea Sword!
Reappearing in the giant’s palm was a small sapling, roughly a foot long, emitting seven-colored light.
That seven-colored tree grew in the giant’s palm, reaching approximately the size of a giant sword, and then stopped growing.
Thereupon, the giant held the Seven-Colored Tree in its right hand, soared into the air, and instantly approached the giant deer, without saying a word, delivered a single brush!
A scene that made True Person Bailu’s soul fly in shock appeared!
The antlers that could contend with the six-colored Reverse Sea Sword were broken by the unimpressive-looking Seven-Colored Tree at one stroke!
Blood instantly gushed from the fracture of the antlers!
"A nice pair of antlers; I’ll take them without ceremony. Next, is your Eternal True Body!"
The Seven-Colored Tree brushed again!
True Person Bailu’s Eternal True Body was directly cut in two, blood splattering across the sky!
Having been forced out of his Eternal True Body, True Person Bailu’s aura dwindled unprecedentedly, borrowing a Blood Arrow to flee from the giant deer’s corpse, his expression showing extreme horror never seen before!
What kind of tree is that!
That single brush’s power... it terrifyingly severed all laws!
Could it be...
That legendary Buddhist treasured tree!
The Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree!
"An ordinary foreign cultivator possessing such an anti-heavenly item!" gasped True Person Bailu.
It couldn’t be wrong!
The strange seven-colored tree used by Ning Fan must be the Buddhist supreme treasure, the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree!
The sapling of the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree is extremely rare; even someone like him, a Buddha cultivator, could search a lifetime without obtaining one, yet Ning Fan has it!
It also seemed that the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree had been nurtured to an extremely powerful level!
"A thousand-zhang Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree can be used as an innate magical treasure, and belongs to the invincible among the innate inferior grade! This boy’s Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree hasn’t reached a thousand zhang yet, otherwise, that brush would’ve eliminated even my primordial spirit alongside, leaving me no means of escape!"
"Not a thousand zhang yet! But it’s definitely close to a thousand zhang; this tree hasn’t reached the innate level, but its powerful divine skill makes it surpass many innate treasures with weaker powers!"
"With this tree in hand, I am no match for this boy! Continuing the battle is absolutely unwise!"
He couldn’t break Ning Fan’s defense!
He couldn’t withstand Ning Fan’s treasure tree’s attack!
This fight was hopeless; only a tactical retreat was the correct choice.
The weakening True Person Bailu raised a golden spear to flee, only to be frozen mid-air by Ning Fan’s Heaven Sealing Art.
According to reason, with Ning Fan’s cultivation, sealing True Person Bailu should incur some backlash. But unfortunately, Ning Fan’s spirit sense, whether primordial spirit or physical body, was already far beyond the level of an Immortal Venerable, even if backlash struck, it would cause minimal harm to his body, almost negligible. With gritted teeth, he further enhanced the power of the Heaven Sealing Art, fully disregarding any backlash. Originally, with his cultivation, he could only seal True Person Bailu for an instant, but now he forcibly sustained it for over a breath!
Knowing he was doomed when his escape light was frozen, True Person Bailu...
Sure enough, in the instant he was immobilized, the giant shadow of the God-Slaying Giant already loomed over his head. With a flash of seven-colored light, another brushing stroke!
Thus, True Person Bailu’s physical body was directly brushed to pieces!
Only his half-golden primordial spirit, clutching the storage pouch, fled from the corpse, full of terror but narrowly surviving.
The Immortal Emperor’s primordial spirit is notoriously hard to kill!
Although Bailu had yet to become an Emperor, his primordial spirit was half-gold. If not for this, Ning Fan’s brush might have truly taken his life!
"Still not dead, the Pinnacle Immortal King is indeed hard to kill... seal!"
Another unreasonable point, pinning Bailu’s primordial spirit static in mid-air!
Once sealed, again a brush!
Brush, then seal!
Seal, then brush!
The half-unjured non-golden part of Bailu’s primordial spirit turned to dust in Ning Fan’s relentless attacks.
The remaining half-golden primordial spirit was indeed difficult to erase, with the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree brushing Bailu over a hundred times, only inflicting minor damage on that half-golden primordial spirit.
Nevertheless, as long as it could be hurt, that was enough.
If a hundred brushes weren’t enough, then a thousand, ten thousand brushes would do!
Ning Fan didn’t believe that today he couldn’t explode Bailu’s golden primordial spirit with the brush!
On the other side, the face of the residual half-primordial spirit of True Person Bailu turned bloodless with fright.
With the nearly impeccable Heaven Sealing Art, there was no way he could escape Ning Fan’s grasp!
No matter how durable the golden primordial spirit was, under the uninterrupted assault of the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree, it would inevitably be destroyed eventually!
He didn’t want to admit it, but he had to concede that today, he was utterly defeated by Ning Fan, unable even to escape...
"Ning Fan! I advise you not to push things to the extreme. If you kill me, Baihua Peak will never let you go! Nor will the Holy Mountain!"
"What... what would it take for you to spare me!"
"Spare me! As long as you give me a way out, I’ll do anything you ask! I can help you deal with that Baihua wench, you hate her, right? After all, when your Punishing Ring was destroyed, she, as an ally, was the first to attack you, truly ungrateful! I actually hate her too and wish to deal with her. We can join forces, we can join forces to cleanse Baihua Peak with blood!"
"I’ll become your servant, is that enough? I’ll let you plant a slave prohibition on me, is that okay? As long as you release me, you will have a subordinate at the Immortal King Peak level; it’s undoubtedly a profitable deal!"
"Ning Fan! I actually have one last ultimate trump card that I haven’t used, which is my greatest reliance for becoming an emperor in the future, so I am reluctant to use it, but it doesn’t mean I’m afraid of you! If you continue to push me... I will use this method to completely annihilate you!"
"Great! Wonderful! Ning Fan! You bastard! You forced me to this! If you want me dead, then I’ll have you die first! I won’t become an emperor, I’ll obliterate you completely!"
The expression on True Person Bailu’s half of his Primordial Spirit’s small face gradually turned sinister, and he suddenly began to recite a spell.
Almost at the same time, a space rift suddenly appeared in the long sky, which had been empty!
It wasn’t a rift leading to the Sea Valley Forbidden Land, but a space created by True Person Bailu himself—a Void Realm!
A medium dichiliocosm magical treasure is something that only an Immortal Emperor is qualified to possess. Of course, if one is a direct disciple of an Immortal Emperor, or an Immortal King on the verge of becoming an emperor, owning such a thing is not unusual.
The medium dichiliocosm that True Person Bailu opened at this moment contained countless mortals and Masters, with millions of mortal countries and cultivation kingdoms built within it.
All the countries only worship one religion, which is the White Deer Sect!
All the inhabitants only offer incense to one deity, who is their god... True Person Bailu!
"This is my Realm of Incense Offering, containing all the incense offerings I’ve accumulated over 74 million years of cultivation! These incense offerings were originally prepared for use when breaking through the Nine-Fifths Calamity of the Immortal Emperor, but it seems there won’t be such an opportunity! Ning Fan! Using the full accumulation of 74 million years of incense offerings from 60 billion Xianghuo Disciples, I will erase you, and you may die content under this!"
With True Person Bailu’s nearly deranged shout, an almost terrifying amount of white incense mist flew out of his Realm of Incense Offering, condensing into a three-foot-long white mist sword in mid-air.
Incense Offering Sword!
This sword finally brought Ning Fan some sense of crisis.
With just a flick, the sword fiercely thrust towards the God-Slaying Giant, and the golden flame body of the God-Slaying Giant began to be cut open by this Incense Offering Sword!
"Hahaha! Your turtle shell, I finally broke it!" True Person Bailu laughed triumphantly.
The white light and golden rays began to collide with each other between heaven and earth.
The collision seemed extremely prolonged, but in reality, it only took a few breaths to determine the winner.
The God-Slaying Giant was ultimately breached by the Incense Offering Sword.
Ning Fan’s chest was pierced two inches deep by the Incense Offering Sword, with blood continuously oozing from the wound.
Unfortunately, the Incense Offering Sword couldn’t progress further; that two-inch wound was its limit. If the incense power were doubled, perhaps it might have been able to pierce through Ning Fan’s heart.
To True Person Bailu’s disappointment, the energy of the Incense Offering Sword was still a wasted effort and exhausted, collapsing with a loud bang.
Then Ning Fan’s wound healed within a few breaths due to his powerful physical recovery ability.
Not a single scar was left, only the damage to his white robe in front of the chest proved that the wound from this sword truly existed...
"You’re quite remarkable. Your fangs finally touched the corner of my clothing. On my journey, you are the first under an Immortal Emperor able to break through the defenses of the God-Slaying Giant. Well, you can take this glory with you to the grave..."
Swish, swish, swish!
With no other means, True Person Bailu, having been repeatedly brushed on and off by Ning Fan, finally realized there was no hope of survival and gritted his teeth to choose self-destruction!
But even his Primordial Spirit’s self-destruction failed to harm Ning Fan in the slightest. In terms of potency, it was not even as strong as the Incense Offering Sword...
This self-destruction, anticipated by Ning Fan, was directly blocked unharmed by the God-Slaying Giant.
After True Person Bailu’s Primordial Spirit self-destructed, Ning Fan, with a mocking smile, covered the fist of the God-Slaying Giant with a grand golden flame and punched through a hundred layers of void space.
Beneath the void was a trace of a fleeing golden Primordial Spirit, which showed the greatest fear in its history the moment it saw Ning Fan break through the void.
"You... how did you know..."
Boom!
Another punch! The God-Slaying Giant directly shattered this fleeing strand of Primordial Spirit.
Then Ning Fan, using the same technique, extracted a total of over 800 such strands of Primordial Spirit from the surrounding void, exterminating them one by one.
Only after this did Ning Fan truly eliminate True Person Bailu.
"With my keen sense of momentum, how could I not know that when you previously released eight hundred hand seals, each one secretly sent out a strand of divided spirit to hide, either for sudden attacks or as an escape measure in times of need... Bailu, indeed a very troublesome opponent."
"Now, I can finally slay even an Immortal King at peak level... Over 63,000 years of arduous cultivation, is certainly not in vain. After the first round of Yin Yang Transformation, my strength has indeed changed dramatically!"
"Of course, the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree, now grown to 970 zhang, also brings me great joy. If it grows to a thousand zhang, this treasure will formally advance to Innate Inferior Grade. How powerful will it become if it grows to two thousand or three thousand zhang..."
Ning Fan suppressed the evil qi blood flame obtained from exterminating Bailu and smiled slightly.
With such strength, rescuing Emperor Butcher is no longer an impulsive act but rather backed by confidence...
...
Almost at the same time as Bailu’s divided spirits were annihilated, atop Baihua Peak, the Baihua Great Emperor, with only her Primordial Spirit and in seclusion for healing, inexplicably had a premonition of impending great disaster.
And this premonition actually corresponded to herself, serving as a warning that she was about to face an impending calamity!
Strange... Wasn’t that Blood Martial Master who failed to kill her captured by the Bright Buddha?
Why does she still sense the arrival of a life-and-death catastrophe?
What unknown events have occurred in the outside world...
Speaking of it, recently, aside from a petty individual who killed her pawn in the Sea Witch Sect, nothing significant seems to have occurred...
Such a sneak attack expert certainly lacks the ability to pose a mortal threat to her...
Where exactly is this life-and-death disaster coming from...
"Report! Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The soul plates, the soul plates..."
Suddenly, a maid hurriedly broke into Baihua Great Emperor’s palace.
Baihua Great Emperor immediately wore a cold expression; she had explicitly instructed that during her seclusion unless she summoned herself, no one was allowed to step into her chamber.
This maid dared to violate her orders; has she grown tired of living!
With a slight lift of her Primordial Spirit finger, Baihua Great Emperor seemed to intend to point at the maid as a form of punishment.
Seeing this, the maid turned pale with fright but still gritted her teeth and knelt on the ground to make her report.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty! If it weren’t for something enormous happening, I would never dare disturb your healing. The soul plates of the Fifth Auxiliary Peak Master and the Fourth Auxiliary Peak Master have shattered, along with those of all the disciples who went to the Sea Witch Sect, and even Lord Bailu’s soul plate... Lord Bailu’s soul plate has shattered too..."
"What! Even Bailu... He’s not some incompetent person. If even an Immortal Emperor wanted to kill him, he could at least escape with his Primordial Spirit, but if his soul plate shattered, doesn’t that mean he couldn’t even escape? Who dared to act! Could it be that my life-and-death calamity confirms itself here!"
Baihua Great Emperor finally showed fear on her face.
The person who rendered Bailu incapable of escaping would similarly find it not too difficult to kill her as well!
After all, she was currently in a much worse state, as her physical body was destroyed by the Blood Martial Master, resulting in injuries several times more severe than before and leaving her fighting power even below that of a Pinnacle Immortal King...
