“Die!”
A furious surge of spiritual power emanated from the crimson demonic sword. Instantly, the spiritual energy within a radius of several thousand meters converged, transforming into a colossal sword body, a hundred meters in length. It descended with an incredibly destructive force, striking down with a single, fearsome blow.
The power of this strike far surpassed the estimations of the strong individuals in the Flowing Cloud Kingdom's capital.
Under the horrified gazes of everyone present, the sword body, as massive as a stone mountain, plummeted from the sky. Even before it landed, its terrifying power caused the earth where the Pei family resided to tremble violently. Fissures, shocking to behold, spread wildly across the land, tearing it asunder.
“Is this the power of a Giant Spirit Realm king…”
A capital city expert muttered to himself, his eyes vacant.
Before this overwhelmingly powerful sword, they felt as insignificant as ants.
The hearts of others were also shaken to the extreme.
At this moment.
The Qiu family.
The Wei family.
And… within the royal palace.
Figures exuding powerful auras were alerted, all standing at elevated positions, gazing towards the direction of the Pei family.
Even.
In some hidden underground palaces, ancient halls, and secluded caves, slumbering figures opened their eyes.
“That’s the aura of that old ghost from the Pei family… By rights, he’s still a long way from recovering. Why has he emerged early? Isn’t he afraid of his efforts going to waste?”
“Who exactly is causing trouble at the Pei family’s estate, forcing them to use this trump card at all costs?”
“The Sky Suspended Gate will open soon, could this be related?”
…
As the entire Flowing Cloud Kingdom’s capital city focused its attention on this battle.
This sword, in a flash of lightning, finally descended.
*Boom!*
The impact of the immensely powerful force struck the ground, causing the entire vast capital city to shake.
The area where the Pei family was located plunged into ruin.
Countless massive stones were lifted into the air by the overwhelmingly potent force, only to be annihilated into fine powder.
As for Ling Fan’s figure.
He was completely engulfed by the chaotic aftermath of the energy.
All the experts who witnessed the might of this strike felt their hearts churn with immense waves, unable to calm down for a long time.
“Good!”
“Well dead! This scoundrel is finally dead, excellent!”
“This is the consequence of offending our Pei family!”
“Ancestor is mighty, Ancestor is invincible!”
The Pei family was filled with jubilation and excitement.
The faces of all the Pei family experts were etched with exhilaration and pride.
The humiliation and disgrace of being trampled under Ling Fan’s feet moments ago were completely swept away.
In the sky.
The crimson demonic sword also emitted a disdainful spiritual fluctuation.
Even though it was neither human nor ghost in its current state, it still possessed a portion of the power of a Giant Spirit Realm king. How could a mere ant-like youth dare to provoke it?
It abruptly turned its sword tip.
Towards Pei Nanwei.
Just as it was preparing to devour Pei Nanwei.
Suddenly, from the central area that had been smashed down below.
Amidst the chaotic energy aftermath, a violent fluctuation erupted.
It was as if something was about to break free from within.
Following this, everyone was shocked to see a martial aura, blazing like a fierce fire, transform into a colossal hand that reached out from the chaotic energy aftermath.
Beneath this colossal hand, a young figure emerged.
His gaze was imperious.
His expression was indifferent.
“Thirty-Six Heavenly Peeping Techniques, the second: Demon Subduing Palm.”
A faint voice uttered from his mouth.
The colossal hand, shining with an indestructible luster, powerfully suppressed towards the crimson demonic sword.
“How is this possible!”
A surge of shock and panic emanated from the crimson demonic sword.
The crimson demonic sword seemed to sense an immense threat, and its surroundings were instantly enveloped by sword energy, its crimson light flashing intensely.
At that moment, the massive crimson light shield, covering a radius of several thousand meters, also flickered.
The crimson demonic sword attempted to use its spiritual power domain to instantly escape from this palm strike.
However, it immediately discovered that as the palm approached, its spiritual power domain seemed to be frozen, making it impossible to initiate teleportation.
This palm strike had actually sealed its spiritual power domain!
*Hum!*
*Hum!*
*Hum!*
The crimson demonic sword struggled desperately, its body trembling continuously. Even the forty-nine golden patterns on it erupted with an unprecedentedly strong golden light, regardless of the cost.
But no matter how the crimson demonic sword struggled, it could not break free from the confinement of that palm.
*Boom!*
Finally.
The crimson demonic sword was caught in the palm.
Endless, profound talismans projected into the void, and mysterious, ancient light flowed continuously on this colossal hand.
Between its fingers and palm, it was as if a terrifying grinding mill that suppressed and annihilated everything existed.
The crimson malevolent aura on the crimson demonic sword was rapidly dissolving.
It was like an ice pop dropped into a furnace.
Red mist continuously emerged with a sizzling sound.
“Ah! Spare me! I know I was wrong!”
A plea for mercy suddenly emanated from the crimson demonic sword.
“Esteemed senior, I was blind and failed to recognize your greatness, offending you. Please spare my life, I don’t want to die!”
But no matter how it begged.
Ling Fan remained unmoved.
The Demon Subduing Palm, like a millstone that annihilated all things, continued to rotate, causing the crimson demonic sword’s spiritual fluctuations to weaken.
It was utterly terrified!
It quickly said again, “I am one of the ancestors of the Pei family. I have hidden countless rare treasures in the Pei family, all prepared for me to forge a stronger sword body upon my recovery. As long as you are willing to spare me, I can offer all these treasures to you. What I say is true. If there is even half a falsehood, may my spiritual body be annihilated and I die without a burial place…”
But despite its earnest oaths and willingness to offer everything it possessed, Ling Fan’s expression remained devoid of emotion, utterly indifferent.
This immediately caused the crimson demonic sword’s heart to sink to the bottom!
It decided to go all out, disregarding its pride, and said, “Senior! Senior! I have no mortal enmity with you. I am an ancestor of the Pei family from hundreds of years ago. I do not care about the lives and deaths of these descendants at all. Rest assured, I do not mind how many you kill! As long as you are happy, you can destroy the Pei family. I only beg you to spare my life! I… I am willing to be the divine sword in your hand for the rest of my life, to cleave through obstacles for you and flatten all enemies!”
“I am a mid-grade Profound tier spiritual weapon with forty-nine artifact patterns. Given time and stronger, rarer divine materials, it is not impossible for me to advance to high-grade Profound tier. Would you be willing to destroy such a treasured sword, comparable in might to a Giant Spirit Realm king, just like this!”
Ling Fan glanced at it indifferently.
He said, “You think you are very valuable, but to me, let alone a peculiar existence like you, a mid-grade Profound tier, even an Earth tier or Heaven tier divine weapon, what of it! To me, they are merely dispensable external forces.”
“I will refine you after I destroy your divine will.”
Ling Fan said lightly.
“Why!” The Pei family ancestor’s hysterical voice boomed in Ling Fan’s mind.
It was even willing to refine itself into a weapon just to prolong its existence.
Therefore, it was extremely unwilling!
“Because you injured my maid and damaged her sword body.”
Ling Fan said faintly.
The Pei family ancestor’s voice immediately choked.
It felt utterly absurd.
It had originally thought that Ling Fan was so determined to destroy it because it had offended the majesty of a peerless prodigy like him.
But who would have known…
The reason Ling Fan wanted to kill it was simply because it had injured his maid and intended to devour her…
Was an ant-like little girl really that important!
