Chapter 1148 Slaying the Demon Tide Alone
"Are you willing to accompany me?"
Li Fan's voice was booming like thunder, piercing through the white mist, even temporarily suppressing the wails from the depths of the abyss, echoing constantly within the Eternal Immortal Fortress.
Feeling the countless eyes of the Qingxuan Army gathered on him, Shang Shaokun's fluctuating figure calmed down.
Revealing his true appearance.
Dressed in a green robe, his figure tall and upright. A fierce gleam flashed in his eyes as Shang Shaokun stared at Li Fan, "Friend, you seem a bit overconfident. Your sword may be sharp, but it may not necessarily be able to withstand the terrifying demonic tide. You are deluding yourself if you think you can permanently control the abyss..."
"You won't know if you don't try. I suspect that you, Shaokun, have been guarding the abyss for so long that your courage has been worn away!" Li Fan did not back down, confronting him head-on.
"Hmph, always relying on words."
In an instant, it was as if countless shadows appeared on Shang Shaokun's body. He seemed to have hidden within this dark tide and was secretly watching Li Fan, ready to launch a fatal blow at any moment.
Meanwhile, Li Fan, feeling surrounded by a great army, even had the illusion of facing the howling abyss alone.
"Inside the Immortal Alliance, there are rumors that the abyssal demon sounds have benefited Shang Shaokun's cultivation, which is why he willingly guards this place and does not leave for a hundred years. Now it seems to be true."
When Li Fan was still at the foundation stage, he had once experienced the terror of the abyssal demon sounds up close.
And now, Shang Shaokun seemed like a free-roaming abyss, ready to unleash the demonic tide of sounds at any moment!
Above Saint Embryo Li Fan's head, a simple and unadorned black long sword suddenly appeared.
The tip of the sword pointed directly at Shang Shaokun.
Although he was coated with a million demonic sounds, in the instant he was locked onto by the sword, Shang Shaokun also felt a sense of impending danger.
It was as if he saw, beyond the black sword, countless swords raining down from the sky, all pointing straight at him!
"Where did this expert come from..."
Shang Shaokun's expression became serious.
The two of them confronted each other in the void, on the brink of a major battle.
Just at this critical moment, a strange fluctuation came from not far away.
At first, it was a few crisp, sharp tearing sounds, like autumn wind.
Then it erupted suddenly like a hurricane galloping by.
It was as if the depths of hell, with a thousand ghosts crying. It was as if the world was ringing with the sounds of despair before the end of days.
The white mist was churned and rolled without ceasing.
And the Immortal Fortress seemed to tremble like a boat on the sea, constantly in danger!
"The demonic tide!"
It seemed to be due to the suppression by Li Fan's sword light just now, causing a rebound of the power of the abyssal sounds.
This time, the intensity and scale of the demonic tide far exceeded the usual.
The Eternal Immortal Fortress, which was directly impacted by the tide, seemed like a leaf on a branch, ready to be blown away at any moment!
Shang Shaokun's face changed dramatically, and he ignored Li Fan, moving quickly to return to the Broken Palm Immortal City.
With Shang Shaokun's presence, the green light began to swirl around, and the Eternal Immortal Fortress slowly stabilized within the demonic tide.
Just as the Qingxuan Army was still in shock, they were horrified to find that Li Fan, who they thought had disappeared in the demonic tide, was still standing quietly in the void outside the Immortal City.
Even amidst the raging demonic sounds and churning white mist, he remained unmoved.
And then, Li Fan did something that was unexpected to everyone.
He casually strolled outside the Broken Palm Immortal City.
Facing the endless howls of the abyss, Li Fan sat cross-legged.
A plain black long sword appeared timely beneath him.
Li Fan's right hand tapped the sword lightly with his fingers.
"Ding!"
A crisp sound, even amidst the raging demonic tide, was so prominent!
The sword hum echoed, and at the same time, behind Li Fan, countless different sword shadows appeared.
The sword shadows were continuous, like a Great Wall, standing in front of the Broken Palm Immortal City.
Countless swords pointed at the abyss!
"The demonic sounds pierce the mind, but he is unaffected at all! How did he do it?"
"What is he doing sitting in front of the city?"
This shocking scene made the millions of Qingxuan Army all lose their composure.
Even Shang Shaokun, also suddenly stood up and looked at Li Fan's back outside the city.
If the demonic tide was an unending, raging, and violent surging wave, then Li Fan at this moment was like a giant rock standing by the sea, unyielding and steadfast.
Unaffected by the demonic sounds, not even a fraction could harm him.
And Li Fan's performance was just beginning.
"Go!"
Before the great tide, Li Fan softly exclaimed.
Behind him, from the Great Wall built by thousands of sword shadows, one sword flew out in an instant.
Just like the breathtaking sword light Li Fan had previously unleashed, it flew directly towards the demonic tide, roaring away.
In the face of the raging demonic tide, the sword light gradually dimmed.
But within the Broken Palm Immortal City, the Qingxuan Army could unmistakably feel that because of that sword light, the power of the demonic tide was reduced by a few degrees!
"Could it be..."
A thought involuntarily rose in their minds.
All the people in the city couldn't help but tremble with fear.
Then, a scene they would never forget took place.
Countless flying swords, advancing one after another, charged towards the howling abyss without hesitation.
Numerous sword lights flashed continuously, completely lighting up the Eternal Immortal Fortress.
With each attack, the demonic tide weakened a little.
The terrifying wails that resounded in their ears gradually became feeble.
The vast Immortal City fell silent.
Everyone was silently watching Li Fan's back.
There was no room for any other thoughts.
Like a heavy rain finally subsiding, the city was calm.
Outside the Immortal City, there was no more demonic sounds.
But behind Li Fan, the sword light still shone brightly.
Endless, inexhaustible.
"That sir..."
"I'm afraid his words about permanently controlling the abyss are not unfounded."
In the minds of the Qingxuan Army, this thought emerged spontaneously.
With his back to the Broken Palm Immortal City, Li Fan did not stand up.
The Qingxuan Army seemed frozen, afraid to make a move.
"Blocking the demonic tide with my sword, the recognition of the Xuanhuang swordsmanship has deepened for me."
In reality, Saint Embryo Li Fan was comprehending the changes happening within himself.
"It seems that the Xuanhuang Heavenly Way still instinctively rejects these 'foreign objects'. Those who can adapt to the will of heaven will receive the corresponding favor from the Heavenly Way."
Thinking this, Li Fan stood up slowly, turned around, and looked at the countless cultivators within the Eternal Immortal Fortress.
With a smile, he asked, "Shaokun, do you still think I'm too confident?"
The Immortal City fell into silence.
After a moment, Shang Shaokun's figure appeared before Li Fan once again.
He bowed slightly and sighed, "I was wrong."
"Your talent, friend, is rare in this world."
Just as he was about to say something, Li Fan waved his hand and interrupted him.
"So, are you willing to accompany me?" Li Fan asked again.
Seeing this, Shang Shaokun gritted his teeth and reluctantly replied, "In that case, I will risk my life to accompany you!"
After Shang Shaokun's words, an earth-shattering cheer erupted in the Broken Palm Immortal City.
Today, that's just one chapter.
