"The disparity in realms is too great, resulting in the backlash of the formless killing intent."
Li Fan pondered for a moment, then reexamined the scene he had just witnessed.
In the pitch-black expanse, two storm clouds collided with each other. A cyan radiance illuminated the heavens and the earth. Faintly, Li Fan saw a small black sword constantly shuttling within the storm.
The murderous aura was overwhelming, and the speed was astonishing, leaving behind blue and cyan glows.
In the vast sea and sky, the raging energy destroyed everything, even dispersing the abundant spiritual energy.
Only the pure wind remained.
The two storm clouds slowly merged into one, with the smaller one, like a snake devouring an elephant, taking dominance.
After an unknown period, the fusion was finally completed.
At the moment of the new storm's formation, the world seemed to suddenly quiet down.
The black sword intent, magnified countless times, stood erect in the heavens and earth.
Just as the sword intent phantom completely appeared, a furious shout echoed through the sky.
"Slash!"
Then the screen went black, and the information terminated there.
Li Fan watched the scene repeatedly, and only when Zhang Zhi Liang noticed him dazed for a long time did he ask if Li Fan needed a break.
Only then did Li Fan stop.
"The way of heaven and earth, to refine the alchemical pill."
Although he had suffered a minor injury, Li Fan didn't know how Zhang Hao Bo achieved the breakthrough to the Golden Elixir.
But suddenly witnessing the scene of the Golden Elixir's formation for the first time, Li Fan couldn't help but feel excited and joyful.
On the path of cultivation, there were many mysteries ahead, shrouded in thick fog. Now, with the help of the genius's power, he illuminated a previously unknown segment.
After a while, the joy gradually subsided.
Li Fan calmed down again, returning to his studies of the formation.
Meanwhile, Zhang Zhi Liang, who had been observing Li Fan's diligent study, revealed a contented expression.
"Although this kid's talent in formations is lacking, his diligence and temperament are quite to my liking. I just wonder how long he can persist."
However, Li Fan didn't know that a massive tornado was swiftly moving toward Wanxian Island.
This abnormal sight naturally attracted the attention of the cultivators on Wanxian Island.
Confident in the protection of the Wanxian Great Array, even if the tornado were twice as strong, it wouldn't have a substantial impact on Wanxian Island.
However, the power of this tornado was too shocking.
Moreover, its target was clear—it was heading straight for Wanxian Island.
This made the cultivators on the island make unfounded speculations.
Since the appearance of the storm in the Sea of Clouds, there was an unwritten rule among the cultivators of Wanxian Island: only defend, and generally, they didn't actively disperse the storms.
It was said to be an order from the transcendent immortal who established Wanxian Island.
Although the cultivators didn't know why, they had to obey.
After all, despite the storms being grand, there were no reports of cultivators dying in them, even for those in the Foundation Establishment stage.
Therefore, the cultivators paid little attention to the storms.
But now the situation was different.
This storm was coming directly at Wanxian Island. What should they do?
It should be noted that since the construction of Wanxian Island, there had never been an incident where a storm attacked Wanxian Island.
For a while, the cultivators on the island were in an uproar.
The island's official Wanxian Alliance also inexplicably remained silent, without making any decisions.
Thus, the cultivators on Wanxian Island could only watch as the massive green tornado approached.
Initially, from a distance, it didn't seem like a big deal. However, as the tornado gradually approached, the cultivators became increasingly shocked.
Countless seawaters were sucked into the tornado, and where the tornado passed, the sea became empty.
Even the mud and rocks on the seabed were carried into the sky.
Under this enormous wind force, the ground on Wanxian Island began to tremble faintly.
The transcendent immortal statue with a high crown emitted a radiant light.
The Wanxian Great Array had automatically activated its protective measures.
"Who is the Daoist friend coming to visit Wanxian Island?"
"Please reveal yourself!"
As the green tornado got closer, the transcendent immortal of Wanxian Island finally appeared.
A continuous mountain range blocked the path of the tornado.
Although the gusty wind was strong, it seemed to lose some of its momentum when faced with the towering mountain range.
However, the tornado showed no signs of changing direction.
Without answering, it directly collided head-on!
The tornado collided with the mountain range, creating a tremendous sound that echoed through the heavens and the earth.
The cultivators who were watching were stunned, looking at the place where the wind and mountains clashed.
The wind cut like a blade, and rubble flew everywhere. In an instant, many mountaintops were shaved off.
With a snort, the mountain peaks instantly returned to their original state.
The sky around the cyan tornado suddenly darkened.
One after another, mountain peaks appeared, extending endlessly, surrounding the cyan tornado.
The cyan tornado was encircled by the mountains.
At this moment, a hearty laughter echoed from within the tornado.
"From the Sea of Clouds, Zhang Haobo
pays his respects to the transcendent immortal!"
The sound traveled from afar and quickly spread throughout Wanxian Island.
The cultivators watching the scene were initially puzzled.
Some were open-mouthed and incredulous, while others wore expressions of disbelief.
Through word of mouth, soon all the cultivators on the island knew who Zhang Haobo was.
A few years ago, he tested his puppet swordsmanship at the Qi Condensation stage.
Not long ago, he slashed the wind at the Foundation Establishment stage.
And now, he could manipulate such a powerful storm to pressure Wanxian Island?
Looking at the momentum, although not reaching the level of a transcendent immortal, it was definitely above the Nascent Soul stage!
How did he achieve this?
Wanxian Island was in an uproar.
The sound of discussions filled the air.
But after the initial shock, many astute cultivators saw through the clues.
"This Zhang Haobo might not have such strong personal strength! He is leveraging the situation!"
"Right, in my opinion, this person at most has a Golden Elixir cultivation. It's just that his understanding of the wind's laws is astonishing, allowing him to control such a formidable storm!"
"He is like lifting a thousand catties with four ounces. Using his own weak power to provoke the might of heaven and earth, an ordinary cultivator at the Golden Elixir stage would never be able to do this. How long has he been cultivating? This person's talent is truly terrifying!"
Wanxian Island was filled with discussions.
The transcendent immortal in the invisible Dao residence remained silent for a while.
"Why have you come here? What is the matter?"
After a moment, he spoke again.
In the cyan tornado, Zhang Haobo slowly revealed his figure.
He gazed into the void ahead, smiling faintly. "Forgive my intrusion, seeking an audience with Senior to discuss important matters!"
A bit later, there will be one more update.
