Huang Lier shook her head.
"That’s all. Nowadays, my father is too wary of the Forbidden Land to seek the Divine dicine."
Indeed.
A group of powerful Demon Clan figures ascending directly—the spectacle is nothing short of awe-inspiring, enough to terrify anyone.
Moreover, the Immortal Realm is far too vast.
Though it appears on the surface as though all factions are known, the true depths and terror of hidden forces remain a mystery to everyone.
For the Pavilion Master—
If he, too, were among those ascending—
then the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion would be as good as ruined.
At just this mont—
A powerful aura emanated from the outside of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion; they didn’t need to look to know who had arrived.
"Sigh!"
Lin Fan let out a deep sigh, then stepped forward, appearing in the air above the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.
"I say, Sect Leaders, isn’t it a bit too much to be chasing this relentlessly? Recently, I was rely spreading Martial Arts among the Demon Path; how does it concern you? Why must you harass so?"
He truly did not want to engage these Sect Leaders in a fight.
Of course—
He was stalling for ti.
Right now, his priority was ensuring the Martial Artists disseminate the true essence of the Martial Arts Stele far and wide, so all beings can cultivate.
Judging by the current progress, everything seed to be going smoothly.
Luo Baiying said, "Lin Fan, we are both mbers of Immortal Sects. We have no wish to quarrel with you. If you retract the Martial Arts legacy, we can consider this matter resolved."
Lin Fan spread his hands with a helpless expression, "Your words seem misplaced. Look at —do I look like I’m spreading Martial Arts right now?"
Luo Baiying snarled in anger, "Stop twisting words! You propagated Martial Arts within the Demon Path. Mortal beings everywhere have now embraced it. Our demand is simple: retract the Martial Arts Stele and vow never to spread Martial Arts again!"
"Wow! Is your face not large enough already?" Lin Fan retorted.
Luo Baiying froze, "What do you an by that?"
Lin Fan chuckled, "If your face isn’t large, how can you expect to vow such a thing? Besides, I know about *your* situation—don’t think you’ve hidden it so well that no one knows. Do you rember Black Demon Platform?"
Sure enough—
As Lin Fan uttered these words, Luo Baiying’s expression instantly darkened, becoming chillingly gloomy. Yet, with so many Sect Leaders present, he couldn’t afford to reveal his emotions.
"Hmph!"
Luo Baiying didn’t want to argue with Lin Fan further. He withdrew imdiately, clearly guilty.
The Kunxu Palace Sect Leader said, "Daoist Lin, you hold friendly ties with my palace. Why act this way? Martial Arts must not exist. As a prodigy of the Taiwu Immortal Sect, with an esteed position, why tarnish your future?"
They were all acquaintances.
Before deeper connections could form—
This conflict had suddenly erupted. How senseless, vexing even. Was this truly necessary?
"Indeed, my relations with the Kunxu Palace are cordial, and I’ve maintained great friendships with your True Disciples. However, I ask for understanding from all present—Martial Arts poses no harm to Immortal Sects. Even though this era of prosperity and diversity has not yet been achieved, the re addition of Martial Arts evokes such intolerance from you all?"
"To cultivate immortality is to cultivate one’s state of mind. Is it not too petty of you?"
Lin Fan treated acquaintances with leniency. His rapport with several Immortal Sects was strong.
If he ever needed to fight, it was rely sparring—killing them was out of the question.
Though he possessed the capacity to do so—
He refrained.
They hadn’t anticipated Lin Fan to be this uncompromising, leaving them flustered and in helpless silence. However, a few Sect Leaders harbored burning rage, their patience irreversibly worn thin, longing to suppress Lin Fan.
If not to kill him outright, at least to quell his defiance.
Such insolence could not go unchecked.
Then suddenly—
Three figures streaked across the distant horizon.
Their presence awe-inspiring.
"Why waste words with him? Suppress him outright and return him to the Taiwu Immortal Sect, locking him away for several centuries. Can he overturn the skies then?" The voice behind these words was suprely domineering.
Lin Fan looked up but failed to recognize the identities of the newcors.
However, the other Sect Leaders had already recognized them.
The Holy Master of the Sacred Land, the Mountain Master of Flying Immortal Mountain, and the Mountain Master of Ao Wu Mountain.
Each was a pinnacle-level expert, reclusive and imnsely powerful.
Lin Fan couldn’t help but marvel at life’s ironies—it was fascinating to attract so many formidable adversaries.
Fortunately for him, his strength now matched theirs.
If this had happened earlier—
He likely would’ve been beaten to death.
Inside the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, the visitors turned their gaze skyward. Even the faint emanations of the experts’ aura left them visibly distressed.
This was the majesty of true experts.
Ordinary folk could never endure such crushing pressure.
Soon after—
Huang Lier left the pavilion, standing in the sky to greet them respectfully, "Honored seniors, this is the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. I urge you not to battle here; it could affect other patrons who’ve co to visit the pavilion."
Though her words were courteous—
The pavilion’s True Immortal experts had already fixated their gaze on the sky above.
If conflict arose, they would undoubtedly intervene imdiately.
"Miss Li, rest assured, we have no intention of fighting here. Our purpose is rely to converse with Daoist Lin," one Sect Leader assured.
The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion’s honor was still sothing to consider.
Moreover, he wished to avoid disrupting the rules of the establishnt.
Although they didn’t fear trouble, causing it remained botherso enough. The Pavilion Master was known to be fiercely domineering—once targeted, even the mightiest would suffer countless headaches.
Lin Fan spread his hands, "If you wish to talk, then let’s step outside. This is the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion’s territory. Should we resort to violence later, damaging this place and harming the innocent, that wouldn’t be at all acceptable."
Speaking with them yielded no results.
Fighting was clearly the only way to resolve this matter.
Reasoning with them was futile.
They were already fixated on the notion that Martial Arts must disappear. Anything beyond that was a waste of words.
Huang Lier furrowed her brows, realizing that if Master Lin stepped outside with them, the only outco would be battle. She was deeply concerned that Lin Fan could not prevail against so many Sect Leaders.
Her utmost hope was for Lin Fan’s safety.
She prayed he would avoid clashing with these formidable powers.
"Please!"
Lin Fan gestured with his hand, offering the utmost respect to these powerful figures. Despite his own unparalleled strength, he refrained from behaving recklessly and arrogantly. His wish was peace, however vain it seed.
"Lin Fan..."
Huang Lier found it difficult to accept, gazing at Lin Fan with worry, hoping he wouldn’t be so impulsive.
But Lin Fan waved her off, "Alright, I know what I’m doing. There’s no need for you to say so much. I understand your thoughts—I hear them loud and clear, so there’s no need to reiterate."
Lin Fan glanced at Huang Lier and let out a long sigh. Truthfully, there was little left to say, especially given the words she’d just spoken. To her, it all seed distant and unattainable.
Moreover, so matters were far from being so simple.
Everything was more complicated than one might think.
Huang Lier chose to remain silent, rely watching Lin Fan as he departed the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion with the many Sect Leaders.
A battle was about to erupt.
No one could stop it, for this conflict touched upon their very core interests. Even Huang Lier lacked the power to compel the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion’s experts to intervene.
She was truly powerless.
And so, during this stretch of ti—
An earth-shattering battle broke out beyond the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.
Unyielding, Lin Fan clashed fiercely with the Immortal Sect elites yet again.
