Chapter 88: Executing Sikong Yi
🕑 Added 2023-10-19 12:48:36 +0000 UTCLi Fan's divine sense wandered through this colorful model, making it feel as if he were personally touring the ancient Cloud Water Heavenly Palace.
But...
Apart from this, it seemed like the "Cloud Water Map" had no other special purpose.
"This 'Cloud Water Map,' perhaps it would be more fitting to call it the 'Cloud Water Model.'"
"Or perhaps, does it hide some other secrets inside? Otherwise, why would someone offer a reward of one hundred thousand contribution points?"
Li Fan suddenly had many doubts.
However, this wasn't the time to delve deeply into them.
He stored the colorful model in his storage ring and then politely bowed to the turtle-snake creature. "Divine Ancestor Taiyi, please escort me out of here. I still have to find my Junior Brother Baili Chen."After a moment, Taiyi's aged voice sounded, "Yes, leaving is good. Leaving is good..."
It was the same reaction as when he sent Baili Chen away earlier.
A blue light enveloped Li Fan, and then his figure disappeared.
In front of Taiyi's palace, silence reigned once again for a long time.
After some unknown duration, a strange noise shattered the tranquility.
"Zzz..."
"Zzz..."
"Zzz..."
It was like the sound of a sword constantly grinding against a whetstone, and also like a giant serpent shedding its old skin.
Each time this sound occurred, countless sword shadows appeared from the void and impaled the turtle-snake creature.
"Boom!"
The Taiyi Hall suddenly sank, and the turtle-snake creature's limbs were forcibly retracted.
The two black serpents on its head and tail let out painful howls as they writhed and returned to the Taiyi Hall.
"Pain..."
"Pain..."
Taiyi's aged and mad voice thundered across the entire Cloud Water Heavenly Palace.
Buildings shrouded in white mist seemed to respond with various horrifying sounds, continuously echoing.
The virtual sword shadows intensified like a torrential rain.
"Roar!"
Finally, the figure of the turtle-snake creature vanished.
Only an empty Taiyi Hall remained, along with the increasingly vast sword forest, silently witnessing Taiyi's eternal suffering.
In the Cong Yun Sea.
Li Fan's vision blurred, and he felt like he had returned to the azure ocean.
However, he had already left the central area of the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace ruins.
Sensing the positions of Sikong Yi and Baili Chen, Li Fan activated the Stalking Shadow Technique, following closely behind them.
At the same time, the previously dormant Formless Killing Intent was suddenly activated.
Sikong Yi and Baili Chen immediately encountered resistance, causing their speed to greatly decrease.
Meanwhile, Li Fan's speed continued to increase.
The distance grew closer and closer, and in no time, their figures became faintly visible.
"What exactly are you? I've already given you the 'Cloud Water Map,' so why are you still hounding us?" Sikong Yi's angry voice sounded.
Li Fan didn't reply, only accelerating his speed.
"You're truly pushing it!" Seeing the situation, Sikong Yi actually gave up on running and turned to confront Li Fan.
Golden sword qi appeared one after another around him, winding like a dragon.
With a point from Sikong Yi, under the activation of the sword qi, they surged towards Li Fan like a multitude of flying dragons.
As for Baili Chen, he had somehow used a secret technique, and his speed suddenly increased several times, attempting to flee towards a distant island.
"Are you trying to use the same trick as before? Are you planning to use the island's teleportation array to return to Ten Thousand Immortals Island?"
"Not a bad idea."
"It's a pity I was prepared for this."
Li Fan watched them closely, his eyes shining with an inexplicable light.
Ever since he had learned that Sikong Yi and Baili Chen often acted together from Jiao Xiuyuan, Li Fan had specifically purchased some targeted magical tools in the Heavenly Profound Realm to better deal with them.
For example...
A shield surrounded by flames appeared in front of him, blocking all of Sikong Yi's golden sword qi.
Redflame Shield, 350 contribution points.
It had a natural restraining effect on Sikong Yi's golden attribute sword qi.
Li Fan also took a black chain from his storage ring.
One end of the chain was aimed at Sikong Yi, while the other end targeted Baili Chen.
With a gentle toss, the black chain rapidly extended, reaching out like a bolt of lightning, binding Sikong Yi and Baili Chen together.
The chain suddenly tightened. Baili Chen, who was frantically trying to escape, was abruptly yanked back towards Sikong Yi.
Soul-Locking Chain.
Li Fan had spent 958 contribution points to have a Foundation Establishment artificer from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance specially create it.
Once the two were connected by the chain, they couldn't move too far apart from each other.
Finally, watching the two captives chained together, Li Fan took out a set of formations.
The Blue Wood Purple Fire Formation.
A total of 1500 contribution points.
It was incredibly powerful. Once activated, it could reduce the average Qi Condensation stage cultivator to ashes within moments.
Li Fan remained expressionless and activated the formation, enveloping Sikong Yi and Baili Chen.
From the moment Li Fan blocked Sikong Yi's golden sword qi to when he trapped the two with the formation, it had all occurred in the blink of an eye.
The two never had a chance to react; they had become sitting ducks and could no longer escape.
"Who exactly are you?!" Sikong Yi saw that each of Li Fan's moves was highly targeted, making it clear that he had been planning this all along.
Now he couldn't help but be baffled.
Li Fan didn't reply. Instead, he used his Insect Binding Technique to control Baili Chen.
Ignoring Sikong Yi's curses, Li Fan activated the formation, burning Sikong Yi.
"Ahh!"
Amidst the cries of agony, Sikong Yi turned into ashes.
However...
There was no peculiar phenomenon in the sky above.
Following this, just as Li Fan had anticipated, the scene unfolded.
A faint phantom slowly appeared beside Baili Chen. After the phantom wriggled for a while, it gradually took on a solid form.
Sikong Yi had been resurrected!
Li Fan squinted his eyes and once again activated the formation.
The wails continued.
Sikong Yi died once more.
After this resurrection, his cultivation fell from the late Qi Condensation stage to the mid Qi Condensation stage.
Li Fan seemed to understand something.
Purple flames leaped, and Sikong Yi faced another round of death.
Sikong Yi went from cursing to begging for mercy, and then to tearfully pleading in agony.
But Li Fan was unmoved.
Sikong Yi was enigmatic and had extraordinary means of self-preservation. Stealing the "Cloud Water Map," worth one hundred thousand contribution points, from him had already made him a mortal enemy.
Even if Li Fan couldn't force his secrets out of him, there was no way he would let him go.
The Blue Wood Purple Fire Formation was activated repeatedly.
Soon, Sikong Yi's cultivation had dropped to the early Qi Condensation stage.
Desperation showed on his face.
He collapsed, begging Li Fan to spare him.
In order to save his own life, he chose to reveal his secrets to Li Fan.
Li Fan listened silently, his expression still.
Finally, purple flames shimmered.
After dying three times in a row, Sikong Yi could no longer resurrect.
As for Baili Chen, after Sikong Yi's final death, he turned into dust and completely disappeared from this world.
At the place where Sikong Yi vanished, a black token hovered silently in the air.
Li Fan picked up the token, and a piece of information immediately appeared in his mind.
"The bearer of this token shall rule the Sun Stealing Sect."
