Chapter 202: Observing the World, The Death of the Tyrant's Brother! (Part 1)
"How about this," Lin Fan suggested, giving Wang Teng the order to scare Cang Song.
Wang Teng, of course, didn't hesitate.
He took a step forward and said, "I only have one move that I can barely use. I'll show it to you first, and if you think it's good enough, we can fight."
"How about it?"
Cang Song frowned.
Are you fucking looking down on me?
I've been misunderstanding for so many years, and I've been holding my nose and apologizing to my supposed enemies. I've been holding in my anger, and now you, a junior disciple, are showing such disregard for me?
You even say you only have one move, and you want to show it to me first?
Do you really think I, the head of the Dragon Head Peak and the premier of the righteous path, am just a decoration?
Cang Song chuckled and said in a strange tone, "I guess I'll have to witness the incredible skills of Young Master Wang."
"Incredible? No, no, no, it's not incredible."
Wang Teng smiled shyly, "It's all thanks to my master's teachings."
"Cang Song, take a look."
As he raised his hand, a glimmer of light appeared.
Then, it grew larger and brighter.
An astonishing temperature spread out, and even though Wang Teng was trying to contain it, it was still incredibly intense! Cang Song, who was at the forefront, felt the terrifying power and high temperature of the 'little sun,' and his scalp went numb instantly.
What the hell!
His innate instinct as a cultivator told him that if he got hit by this, he would... die!
Who could provoke such power?
Daoxuan and the others, standing a bit further away, remained calm.
But...
The cold sweat on their foreheads had already soaked their temples without them realizing it.
Countless thoughts raced through their minds.
Is this a junior disciple?
What kind of technique is this?
Who could withstand a single strike?
Daoxuan silently calculated.
If I summon the Zuxian Sword and strike with all my might... could I withstand it?
At the same time, they all had a common question in their minds.
What kind of hidden sect is this Lan Yue Zong? Why do they have such terrifying and unheard-of techniques?
"I only have this one move," Wang Teng smiled. "Its explosive power isn't too strong, but it has a decent high temperature, roughly ten times what you're currently experiencing."
Cang Song: "???"
It's already terrifying in my perception, and you're telling me it will be ten times stronger when it explodes?
Unnoticeably, he glanced at Xiao Ling'er.
Xiao Ling'er was very smart and understood Wang Teng's intentions.
Seeing this, she glanced at him and smiled slightly.
Her smile was especially sweet.
Then, five different types of strange fires appeared and gathered between her hands.
And then...
Another 'little sun' formed.
It was multicolored!
More ferocious!
The temperature it displayed was even higher—after all, she didn't use a magnetic field to isolate the high temperature.
But others didn't know that!
Cang Song didn't know either.
In his perception, the little sun in Xiao Ling'er's hands was bigger, brighter, and hotter, in other words, more fierce!!!
He couldn't withstand the smaller one.
This larger one would leave nothing but ashes?
What the hell!
Cang Song was completely stunned.
Are you letting me vent my frustration and annoyance?
Are you trying to kill me?
And to die of frustration!
Damn it.
Please, I beg you, be reasonable!
I, Cang Song, have been so good for so many years!
...
In the end, the fight didn't happen.
Cang Song chickened out.
After all, he didn't want to die.
He had thought about it before, even considering taking Daoxuan with him, but now that Wan Shixiong was alive, he naturally didn't want to die, especially in a meaningless sparring match.
The most crucial thing was that the other party even claimed it was to let him vent his frustration and anger.
What venting?
However, after this scare, Cang Song calmed down and realized his own abilities.
At the same time, Daoxuan and the other Green Cloud Sect elders finally understood how powerful Lan Yue Zong truly was.
This hidden sect, Lan Yue Zong, had only sent two juniors, and they had the strength to annihilate the entire Green Cloud Sect!
There was no point in fighting!
So...
Finally, both sides sat down for a 'calm' exchange.
But for Lin Fan, the sense of deja vu from this scene was too strong.
What peace?
It's clearly nuclear annihilation!
Wang Teng was just holding a nuclear bomb behind him, wasn't he?
...
"So, your sect's intention is that Lan Yue Zong will emerge but won't significantly affect the entire martial arts world and cultivation realm."
"And you want our Green Cloud Sect to look after your disciples with lower cultivation?"
"That's right."
After some conversation, Daoxuan finally understood the true meaning.
"That's right."
Lin Fan nodded slightly, "Yes, our sect has many disciples, and some of them have lower cultivation levels and need to go out for training.
"As they travel around, they'll need someone to look after them. You, the Green Cloud Sect, are the premier of the righteous path. If you're willing, that would be the best."
Hearing the words 'premier of the righteous path,' Daoxuan and the others all lowered their heads.
Damn, your Lan Yue Zong is so powerful, yet you're telling me about being the premier of the righteous path... Are you bullying me?
"Of course."
Lin Fan smiled slightly and said, "If you're unwilling, it's no problem. Our sect also has some elders. If no one is willing to look after them, we can send out more elders to reside in various places in the cultivation world."
"It's no trouble."
What a trouble-free request!
Daoxuan, Tian Bu Yi, and the others' hearts raced.
If a few disciples are already so incredible, what would happen if they sent out more elders?
It's better that Lan Yue Zong remains hidden, and we, the Green Cloud Sect, are doing well.
Some disciples coming out is one thing, but if you send out a large group of elders, how can our Green Cloud Sect play?
How can the cultivation world play?
Will the entire cultivation world become the Moon Embrace Sect's backyard garden?
How can this be?
After a moment's thought, Daoxuan quickly spoke up, "There's no need for that."
"Since your Moon Embrace Sect has chosen to remain hidden, there must be your reasons. Leave the matter of overseeing your disciples to us at the Green Cloud Sect."
"That would be a bother."
"But rest assured."
Lin Fan's smile was radiant as he said, "We won't let your efforts go unrewarded. Our sect has made some progress in alchemy, artifact forging, and beast taming. If our cooperation goes well, we won't hold back."
"You flatter me."
Upon hearing about the benefits, Daoxuan and the others immediately felt more at ease.
Although they had agreed before, it was out of necessity and desperation.
They had no choice but to comply.
With benefits, it was naturally better.
"However, Lin Zongzhu," Daoxuan suddenly sighed, "Although the Green Cloud Sect is willing to oversee your lower-level disciples, and we do have the reputation of being the Premier of the Righteous Path, everyone knows that in the cultivation world, in this world, it's not just us who call the shots."
"Not to mention the demonic path over there, we can't manage them."
"If your disciples have conflicts with the demonic path or within areas beyond our jurisdiction, I'm afraid we'll find it difficult to oversee them thoroughly."
"Don't worry about this."
Lin Fan spoke casually, as if discussing a trivial matter, "Whether it's the demonic sects or the Beast Deity, they will soon disappear from this world."
"There will still be demonic sects, after all, we need to leave some trials and challenges for our disciples, otherwise, we can't just go around killing the righteous path, right?"
"However, the strong will be purged, and only a few big and small cats will remain. Their territories... will no longer be theirs."
"The Green Cloud Sect only needs to keep its promise and oversee your disciples within its capabilities."
"Hiss~!"
Daoxuan and the others gasped, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Are you serious?"
"Could it be false?"
Lin Fan smiled wryly and then turned to look at Fire Kun Lun, Little Dragon Girl, and the others, saying, "Everyone, do you want to stretch your muscles and bones?"
"My big mirror is already starving!" Little Dragon Girl was the first to express her eagerness.
Lin Fan's head was filled with black lines as he heard this, "No using the Heaven Observing Mirror!"
"Er..."
Little Dragon Girl looked up, "If not, then not. My fists are also very powerful. Let's go!"
The group immediately scattered, some riding clouds and others flying with swords, moving at incredible speeds!
Lin Fan had already discussed with them who their targets were.
There was no worry of them mistaking their targets.
Compared to the Immortal Martial Continent, the Immortal Slaying Realm was truly minuscule.
A single cultivation planet.
It seemed not small.
But it was all relative to the place it was compared to.
When the seventh-stage cultivators like Lian Bo and Fire Kun Lun unleashed their divine perception, they could almost cover a third of the Immortal Slaying Realm.
For them, finding people was effortless.
As for the great battle...
Even with the same cultivation level, the power gap was immense due to the difference in world tiers!
In just one short day...
They returned.
The Ghost King is dead!"
Several demonic sects were completely annihilated, leaving only some disciples to scatter and flee.
Beast Deity...
Could not be stopped.
Zhu Rou Rong even caught a Nine-Tailed White Fox, intending to bring it back to raise it.
It seemed like just one day.
Most people hadn't realized what had happened.
But the entire Immortal Slaying World had already changed dramatically.
When Daoxuan and the others saw their return and felt the powerful aura around them, they all fell silent.
Even though they knew the Moon Embrace Sect was powerful.
But when they confirmed that they could sweep through everything in just one day, they were left speechless.
Compared to destroying the Green Cloud Sect, this was much easier!
This also made them realize they couldn't afford to provoke the Moon Embrace Sect.
They couldn't afford to provoke them at all!
"The Moon Embrace Sect is truly divine."
Daoxuan exclaimed.
Lin Fan smiled sheepishly, "It's nothing, just basic operations, basic operations."
"Basic operations?"
"It means basic operations."
Daoxuan: "..."
You might as well not say anything!
Is this considered basic? By saying this, aren't you making us seem dull and incompetent?
At the same time, he was also thinking about his research on the Heaven Observing Mirror, so he said, "If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave first."
"In the future, when our disciples enter the world, we'll send them to your Green Cloud Sect to pay their respects and get to know each other."
Daoxuan nodded but hesitated to speak.
"Just say it, Daoxuan." Lin Fan encouraged him to speak frankly.
Daoxuan took a deep breath and asked, "I have a question. How many hidden sects like your Moon Embrace Sect are there?"
He also wanted to ask where the Moon Embrace Sect was 'hiding,' but he didn't dare to ask.
This question wasn't out of mere curiosity; he was genuinely shocked.
In all these years, who had ever heard of the Moon Embrace Sect?
There wasn't even a single mention of them in historical records.
But suddenly, they appeared out of nowhere.
And when they did, their strength was so formidable!
If they couldn't handle even one, what if there were more? Would the Green Cloud Sect be able to survive?
Although Daoxuan might seem a bit old-fashioned, he wasn't foolish.
He realized that he must draw attention to himself and assess the Moon Embrace Sect's strength among these hidden sects.
If one is strong enough, one must consider finding a powerful patron.
"Daoist friend, you are overthinking it."
Lin Fan could guess Daoxuan's doubts and concerns, so he smiled and said, "To my knowledge, among the hidden sects, only our Moon Embrace Sect exists."
"As for where we are... it's actually quite simple."
"Our sect's ancestor, by a stroke of luck, found a blessed land."
Lin Fan didn't elaborate further, leaving Daoxuan to guess the rest.
As expected, Daoxuan immediately understood, piecing together the rest in his mind.
As for how exactly he pieced it together, Lin Fan had no way of knowing.
...
"Please see our seniors off."
Xiao Zhang and Lin Jingyu respectfully saw Lin Fan and his group off.
The truth behind the Cao Temple Village tragedy was finally revealed.
After all, Cang Song had confessed, and it wouldn't be difficult to investigate further in that direction.
The two brothers were especially grateful to Lin Fan and his group for uncovering the truth.
However...
Xiao Zhang would never know that the gears of his fate, which had just begun to turn, were suddenly halted, even welded in place!
But for him, this might not be a bad thing.
At least, he wouldn't have to endure those pains and hardships.
He wouldn't have to spend his days by the side of his beloved's corpse, his heart torn apart.
In the end, he might not even have the corpse to guard, only a scrap of clothing.
Where there is fortune, there is misfortune; where there is misfortune, there is fortune.
Who could truly say whether it was a blessing or a curse?
...
At the exit.
Lian Bo set up numerous arrays, primarily for concealment and defense, with offensive capabilities as a secondary function.
Then, they returned to the Moon Embrace Sect.
This journey had been highly rewarding.
Although the Immortal Slaying Realm was only a small world, it was still a cultivation world that had developed over many years, with its own unique aspects.
While the peak combat power was lacking, there were still many valuable things.
For example, the Bloodthirsty Pearl of the Demon Sect was brought out by Song Yunxiao.
They also discovered some spirit stone veins, which, though named differently, were essentially the same as the essence stone veins on the Immortal Martial Continent.
There were also numerous magical treasures and spirit herbs.
The one who was most delighted was Little Dragon Maiden.
She went berserk on the Beast Deity's territory, fully displaying her crazy personality, and this time, she truly enjoyed herself.
The one who gained the most, in a true sense, was Song Yunxiao, the master of the Immortal Slaying Realm.
With a perfect evaluation, the benefits were self-evident.
So, in Lin Fan's view, this wasn't a win-win situation, but an N-win situation.
Little Dragon Maiden was happy, and he won.
Song Yunxiao won, and he won.
The complete exploration of the Immortal Slaying Realm was another win for him.
How wonderful!
"Thank you all for your efforts."
"Shall we have a drink together?"
Lin Fan suggested.
Half a day later, after a satisfying meal and drinks, everyone gradually dispersed.
Song Yunxiao, however, stayed behind and couldn't help but ask the question on his mind: "Master, why do I feel that you know the Immortal Slaying Realm extremely well, even better than I do?"
He was genuinely confused.
He was the master of the realm!
Yet, he was still in the dark, while Lin Fan had already started operating, directly addressing the core issues and solving them perfectly!
This even made him doubt who the true master of the realm was.
"By chance."
Lin Fan chuckled, "In this vast world, some things are simply inexplicable."
"You just need to know that your master knows a little more than most people."
"Is that so."
Song Yunxiao still didn't understand.
But...
In the end, he could only accept it.
What else could it be?
...
Song Yunxiao left.
Lin Fan took a deep breath and looked at Little Dragon Maiden, who was still grinning foolishly, savoring the thrill of her earlier antics. He said softly, "I have fulfilled my promise to you."
"You've had your fun."
"Now, it's time for you to keep your promise, right?"
"Sure, sure, but I have one more condition."
Lin Fan: "..., what is it?"
"Next time there's something like this, call me!" Little Dragon Maiden squinted her eyes, very pleased. "It was so much fun! Your Moon Embrace Sect is so interesting, much more so than the Ten Thousand Flowers Holy Land!"
"Next time there's something like this, if you call me, I'll let you use the Heaven Observing Mirror again!"
Lin Fan's eyes flickered. "Deal."
"Great."
Little Dragon Maiden giggled, and with a wave of her hand, the Heaven Observing Mirror appeared in her small hand.
This time, there were no special effects.
Thus, Lin Fan could see it clearly.
It was an ancient bronze mirror.
There wasn't much elaborate decoration.
The back was engraved with mountains, rivers, grass, and trees, as well as birds and beasts, like a world sketched in simple lines.
Or perhaps—-the world.
"Here, this is the Heaven Observing Mirror."
"If you don't activate it, it looks quite ordinary, not very interesting."
Little Dragon Maiden played with the mirror, allowing Lin Fan to see it more clearly. After a moment, she held the mirror and said, "You mentioned earlier that you wanted me to help you look for someone."
"Who do you want to see?"
Lin Fan was curious. "Just the name?"
"That won't work," Little Dragon Maiden shook her head. "The Immortal Martial Continent has a huge population, and almost all names have duplicates, whether it's Dog Egg or Fool. So, a name alone won't do."
"You need to provide other information, and not just by speaking, but by using divine soul power to communicate with the artifact spirit sister."
"Then, the Heaven Observing Mirror can help find the person and 'see' them."
"Anytime, anywhere?"
"Anytime, anywhere," Little Dragon Maiden nodded proudly.
"Then... if I were to say, hypothetically, that I wanted to see the Holy Mother bathing?"
Little Dragon Maiden: "???"
She was stunned.
A pair of big eyes blinked, staring at Lin Fan as if they had just met him for the first time.
"You???"
The Heaven Observing Mirror slowly lit up, and a human face gradually emerged, startling Lin Fan.
Fortunately, it wasn't the Ten Thousand Flowers Holy Mother, but a strange female face, beautiful, even breathtakingly gorgeous, yet lacking in 'vitality', not humanized enough, or rather, her face and eyes were full of numbness.
She was the Artifact Spirit of the Heaven Observing Mirror.
"You're quite bold."
The Artifact Spirit spoke, looking at Lin Fan in surprise: "There should be no shortage of people with such thoughts, but to dare to speak them out loud, especially in front of me, you're the first."
"Do you really want to see?"
"I can fulfill your wish."
"But after seeing it, you will die."
"After all, I'm under her control, and I'm her magical treasure. Whatever you do, she will know."
Little Dragon Maiden was stunned.
"Sister Wu, you... actually want to communicate with outsiders?"
At the same time, she also felt that Lin Fan was incredibly bold.
The Artifact Spirit, Sister Wu, was taken aback, then spoke with a dazed expression: "I don't know why, maybe I just find him interesting and bold?
