On the red-brown earth of the Northern Region, the Jiang Family produced a Great Emperor, and the Jade Lake gave rise to an Empress. It is precisely because of such existences that they created world-shaking ancient scriptures and left behind peak weapons. This allowed them to remain transcendent over the world, thriving for over a hundred thousand, even two hundred thousand years.
From the inscriptions within the Purple Mountain, it is evident that the ancients held the No Beginning Emperor in supre reverence. Sadly, because he left no Daoist lineage, such a Supre Emperor who shook Ancient Desolation has gradually been buried by the dust of history; few people know of this na anymore. In ancient tis there was Gu Tianshu, and over the past four or five thousand years, Jiang Taixu. Both greatly yearned for the No Beginning Scripture and felt imnse regret at not being able to witness it.
Ye Fan lacked cultivation thods the most. He yearned greatly for the No Beginning Scripture, wishing desperately to re-enter the Purple Mountain guarded by nine dragon veins to open that thick Stone Scripture.
"Venerable Master, you absolutely cannot let this Daoist escape! I believe he must be of the sa sect as that fat Daoist!" Du Chengkun’s eyes were ablaze as he struggled to climb up from the ground.
"Supre Sect Leader, you must destroy this scoundrel!" Li Youran’s heart was furious. He commanded the surrounding disciples, "Seal the mountain! Shut down the Qingxia Sect! Do not let him escape!"
Ye Fan glanced at them and shook his head, saying, "Let do it." He cast out all one hundred and eight large flags, shooting them toward the Qingxia Eighteen Peaks, completely locking down the area.
"You... you’ve sealed us in here?!"
Du Chengkun and Li Youran were deeply shocked by Ye Fan’s actions, then sneered coldly.
"Do you really think you’re a Grandmaster?!"
"At your age, you think you can defeat the Supre Sect Leader? Truly... HAHAHA!"
The Supre Sect Leader of Xuanyue Cave, his white hair flying, sat cross-legged on the mountain peak. He suddenly opened his eyes, which were as bright as two bright pearls, and said, "You are confident. Do you want to kill us all here?"
"I believe I can," Ye Fan smiled.
"Observing your Qi chanism, you are clearly just a youth. Formidable indeed." The Supre Sect Leader of Xuanyue Cave rose gracefully and said, "But I wonder if you truly have such strength."
"You’ll know after we try."
"Even the heirs of the Sacred Lands dare not walk the mortal world at your age, yet you are quite arrogant." The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect walked out from the waterfall.
"Today, saying anything else is useless. You are waiting here to kill ." Ye Fan swept his Daoist robe and also walked forward, saying, "I returned to kill you. Truthfully, only one side can survive."
The surrounding disciples, seeing this, all began to discuss it animatedly. Many refused to believe a youth could defeat two elder experts from the Dao Palace secret realm.
"Has he gone mad? Although he can send senior brother Li flying, how could he compare with the Supre Sect Leader?!"
"Don’t you know that so people in this world are extrely arrogant? They always want to asure the height of the heavens and the depth of the earth, only to end up burying themselves. HAHAHA!"
In such a remote area, for such a lesser sect, even a genius could not possibly cultivate to such a terrifying realm. They had all heard that even outstanding disciples from the Sacred Lands would find it difficult at this age.
"Could it be that he really has so powerful sect backing him, and his people have already arrived? Otherwise, isn’t he just seeking death by coming here alone?"
"So people are willing to throw their lives away, so why worry? If I were the Supre Sect Leader, I’d slap him until all his bones were broken. But I’d let him live for a few more hours, not kill him imdiately, so he can taste the bitter fruit of his arrogance."
Ye Fan glanced back at them. His gaze was calm, yet everyone instinctively fell silent.
"Let see what skills you possess!" In front of the waterfall, the Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect drifted over like a ghost, his feet not touching the ground, his body unswaying.
While still over thirty ters away, his arm violently shook. His right hand ford a claw, each finger several ters long, all pitch-black, wreathed in crackling purple lightning.
Suddenly, the sky filled with a heart-palpitating aura—a destructive force, brutal and terrifying!
The pitch-black giant claw continued to enlarge. Almost instantly, it covered the sky, spanning more than a hundred ters, flashing with lightning and thunder like a dark cloud, completely enveloping Ye Fan beneath it.
CRACK!
Scarlet lightning bolts, crisscrossing, descended from between the giant claws, striking down. This was a combination of mysterious art and divine energy, swift and domineering!
The giant claw blotted out the sky, overshadowing the heavens. This powerful attack was suffocating.
Ye Fan faced it calmly. His response was simple and direct: he swung his right fist forward. The golden fist, unlike flesh and blood, shone radiantly, as if freshly forged in a Divine Furnace.
Everyone present was confident in the Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect. After all, this was an elder expert of the third realm of the Dao Palace; dealing with a youthful expert should be almost effortless.
BOOM!
But the result defied everyone’s expectations. The golden fist soared upwards, instantly shattering the massive light claw. Its power undiminished, electric light flashed.
BANG!
Ye Fan’s golden fist possessed unparalleled destructive power; it was invincible. It instantly blew apart the palm and fingers of the Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect.
Blood splattered, and light burst forth. The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect felt as if bitten by a venomous snake; half his body trembled as he was sent flying sideways.
It was hard to imagine the imnse power of Ye Fan’s golden fist. The true contact was with the light claw; rely the golden astral wind brushing against the Grand Elder’s flesh was unbearable, his entire right arm thoroughly deford and twisted.
"How is this possible? How young is he, for his physical body to be so formidable? He sent an elder expert of the Dao Palace’s third realm flying!"
"It’s too incredible! His physical body is comparable to a precious treasure! Pure physical strength smashed the Grand Elder’s arm... This..."
The disciples all gasped, never having expected such an outco. Recalling their earlier words, a chill ran down their spines.
This young Daoist was simply a monster, perhaps more terrifying than an heir of the Sacred Lands of the sa age. Faced with such an opponent, no one dared to laugh anymore.
At this mont, everyone looked at Ye Fan, shocked to discover him standing with his hands behind his back, Daoist robe fluttering. That strike had seed quite casual.
"You..." The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect was shaken to his core, the shock indescribable. His disheveled white hair flew wildly. He quickly nded his broken arm and shouted loudly, his palm and fingers slowly moving as if lifting a great mountain, emanating a terrifying aura like a raging tide striking the sky.
BOOM!
In his embrace, a mountain truly appeared. Cradled in his arms, it emanated an indescribable oppression, carrying imnse pressure!
"Mountain Embracing Seal!"
The Li Huo Sect disciples exclaid. This was the Li Huo Sect’s Mountain Suppressing Technique, the sect’s highest secret. Several generations of sect leaders had failed to master it, yet their strongest Grand Elder had succeeded.
Such a real mountain, though not large—one could even say small—exerted a terrifying pressure that shook one to the core, with threads of mist flowing from it.
This mountain, embraced by the Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect, pulsed with terrifying, ocean-like fluctuations. It was incredibly heavy; the very void beneath his feet collapsed!
The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect uttered just one word, "Suppress!" The Mountain Embracing Seal then descended, unstoppable! A Great Mountain towered high in the sky, its imposing force capable of tearing souls apart, causing many to feel a terrifying suffocation, unable to breathe.
Around them, the young disciples collapsed to the ground, paralyzed. This imnse pressure, like a Demon Mountain, suppressed them, leaving them utterly incapable of resisting.
Ye Fan’s heart tightened. Indeed, an Elder Cultivator of the Dao Palace’s third realm is formidable. Each realm is a different world; ascending one realm is equivalent to stepping onto another layer of heaven. This disparity, akin to that between Immortal and Mortal, is an unbridgeable chasm. Other cultivators could not possibly withstand it; they would inevitably be suppressed to death on the spot.
However, Ye Fan’s constitution was unique. His body was like a bottomless pit, requiring far more energy of heaven and earth than ordinary people during cultivation. This also granted him the foundation to use the "Mortal" to strike the "Immortal," to cross the heavenly chasm and slay experts of a higher realm!
"The Mountain Embracing Seal cannot kill !" Ye Fan shouted lowly, yet he did not dare to be careless. His expression was solemn as his hands slowly moved, likewise emanating a terrifying aura.
Above his head, a Great Mountain appeared out of nowhere, seeming to have traversed the ancient heavens and earth, shattering space and ti to arrive. Its infinite grandiosity and majesty made one’s heart, soul, spirit, and courage tremble involuntarily.
Initially, it was vague, but it soon beca clear, like a Heavenly Dragon rising from the sea, like a pillar of the earth reaching for the heavens.
The Great Mountain was like the sky itself!
The majestic Ancient Mountain stood above Ye Fan; he appeared to be shouldering the blue firmant!
At this mont, with Ye Fan at the center, powerful energy waves roared like a great river, rushing forth, ravaging in all directions!
Above his head, the Great Mountain held up the sky. Silver waterfalls cascaded down its slopes, great rivers rushed, ancient trees towered, and birds and beasts flew, all clearly visible!
"Mountain and River Seal!"
Ye Fan shouted loudly, his hands raised to the sky. The Great Mountain descended like a raging ocean unleashed, shattering the firmant!
This was one of the Nine Secret Arts, a supre secret technique within the Killing Technique. It shook all directions, and everyone was terrified.
The Great Mountain pressed down, suppressing the mountain before it.
Mountain and River Seal versus Mountain Embracing Seal!
The great mountains crashed against each other, like seas collapsing and the earth giving way, as if the heavens were tipping and the earth overturning. A chilling aura reverberated in all directions.
Everywhere there were raging waves, beams of light, and the power of destruction. Under this sky, there was no longer any peaceful land.
BOOM!
An imnse sound followed as heaven and earth seed to overturn. The two mountains collided violently, and a wild, domineering aura swept across the world, rushing in all directions.
The Mountain Embracing Seal was utterly defeated!
The Mountain and River Seal remained condensed and undissipated, its power shaking the heavens and rending the earth!
The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect’s chest caved in on the spot. His body shriveled like a beaten drum as he was hurled hundreds of ters away.
The bones throughout his body made continuous cracking sounds; clearly, many were broken, and several areas were completely deford.
Ye Fan stood tall, unscathed, his Daoist robe fluttering in the wind. He stepped through the air, light and graceful, each step spanning a hundred ters, as if using the ability to contract the land between steps. In the blink of an eye, he was right before them.
The Mountain and River Seal vibrated, its oppressive might spreading in all directions, heavy as the sky, hanging above his head.
Two sharp beams of light shot from Ye Fan’s eyes. The Mountain and River Seal pressed down, causing every heart and soul to tremble!
The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect, despite being physically battered, was indeed an exceptionally powerful cultivator. He opened his mouth and spat out a gleaming copper cauldron.
The copper cauldron was only an inch tall, very crystalline and dazzling all over. It expanded rapidly in the wind, imdiately stretching horizontally in front of him, blocking the Mountain and River Seal.
DANG!
The Mountain and River Seal pressed down, colliding with the copper cauldron, emitting a huge sound like great bells vibrating, deep and lingering.
Ye Fan was astonished. This copper cauldron isn’t damaged? It’s still expanding! It towered between heaven and earth, possessing an eternal and immortal aura.
"Kill!" He uttered a low shout, continuing to drive the Mountain and River Seal, bombarding forward. He didn’t believe this copper cauldron could withstand the Fighting Saint Technique.
DANG!
llow vibrations resonated throughout heaven and earth. The copper cauldron trembled once again, simultaneously enlarging considerably. Gleaming resplendently, it now stood in the void like a mountain peak.
anwhile, the shriveled body of the Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect crackled and popped as his bones reconnected and his muscles swelled.
Though his Yuan Qi was greatly damaged and he had suffered a significant loss of vital essence and blood, in a short ti he regained the power to fight, activating his latent potential and power of the Dao.
BOOM!
Flas shot upward from the copper cauldron. The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect took this opportunity to escape, positioning himself in the distant sky, gazing at Ye Fan in disbelief. Such an utter defeat chilled his heart.
By this mont, everyone felt a wave of fear. Such a young Daoist, possessing such terrifying combat power, a Great Seal like a mountain, had utterly defeated the Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect. It was truly terrifying.
The disciples who had collapsed on the ground finally regained their senses and quickly retreated, their scalps tingling as they looked at Ye Fan again.
This Daoist with a gentle smile filled them with endless fear. Rembering the words they had spoken earlier, everyone couldn’t help but feel apprehensive.
Li Youran, the True Disciple of Xuanyue Cave, and Du Chengkun, the Sect Leader’s Disciple of the Li Huo Sect, were all ashen-faced. This young Daoist was much younger than them but so overwhelmingly powerful, nearly causing an elder figure to perish.
"Even a distinguished disciple of the Sacred Lands would be no more than this," the Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect sighed.
"Them..." Ye Fan smiled slightly and walked slowly forward.
On the mountain peak, the Supre Sect Leader of Xuanyue Cave, who had not yet acted, descended and said, "You’re not an inheritor of the Sacred Lands, which makes you even more surprising. You will surely beco a great foe to the Saint Heirs and Sacred Ladies of the major Sacred Lands in the future."
Ye Fan had to take these two opponents seriously. At the third realm of the Dao Palace, they were a realm higher than him, indeed formidable enemies.
"If we let him continue to grow, we will face great disaster. We can only join forces now!" The Grand Elder of the Li Huo Sect said gravely.
"Alright. Today, I shall kill a genius and perform an act of complete annihilation!" The Supre Sect Leader of Xuanyue Cave nodded.
"Trying to kill ? I’m afraid that will be difficult. Instead, let send you on your way!" Ye Fan’s expression was calm, but an intangible killing intent perated the surroundings.
At this mont, he resonated with the firmant, as if achieving Heaven and man together. With every gesture, Daoist aura flowed. His body resonated with frightening power of the Dao, pulling upon the great force of heaven and earth through the divine treasures of his lungs. It truly felt as if a piece of the blue sky was pressing down!
He seed to shoulder the blue sky, the Mountain and River Seal hanging above his head. Birds flew and beasts road, silver waterfalls cascaded, and the mountains and rivers were vast, ancient yet grand, their might overwhelming.
