The demon revealed its true form. Looking at the familiar face, Lin Fan sneered, "Long Aotian, you really are still alive."
Back in the Arctic Ice Valley, he pierced through Long Aotian's head and severed his soul, but the system didn't send a death report, so he knew at that time that this guy wasn't completely dead yet.
There's no need to guess which demon just unleashed its murderous intent upon me; it was this bastard.
"Lin Fan, don't be so smug. Everything I've lost will eventually come back to me," Long Aotian said coldly.
"You? You're a stray dog, how can you talk about courage?" Lin Fan laughed.
Long Aotian said coldly, "The Central Plains are already in war, and the Northern Region is empty. They can no longer take care of the seal there. Do you think the Qingxiao Sect can withstand the attack of the demonic path?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan was not particularly moved. Instead, he glanced at Murong Xuanqiu with concern. Even if the Qingxiao Sect were destroyed, it wouldn't affect him much, and he wouldn't feel sad or guilty.
The only concern is Murong Xuanqiu; she will definitely be affected, after all, it is the sect where she has lived since childhood.
Seeing his silence, Long Aotian assumed that he had a firm grasp on his weakness and said sarcastically, "After the Qingxiao Sect is destroyed, the sealed Demon Lord will be born. Your beloved master and your cherished junior sister will become slaves, and none of them will be able to escape."
Lin Fan rolled his eyes, grabbed the alchemy furnace with one hand, crushed it with his hand, and a Reverse Immortal Pill floated in his palm.
Seeing that Long Aotian was trying to escape, he summoned the Demon-Binding Rope, ignoring space and any barriers or restrictions, and firmly trapped him.
Upon seeing the Immortal-Reversing Pill, Zhu Panpan charged forward frantically, grabbing a pig's trotter and relentlessly attacking it. Each terrifying strike was capable of shattering space itself.
Lin Fan controlled the Demon-Binding Rope with one hand to prevent Long Aotian from escaping, while also fighting Zhu Panpan. Faced with her fierce attacks, the violent collision of spiritual energy caused the void to collapse.
Nearly half of the surrounding halls were destroyed. Seeing that the demonic cultivators were also rushing over, his eyes turned cold. He then took out the Soul-Suppressing Jade and the Immortal-Reversing Pill, and used two fingers to form a sword, piercing through Long Aotian's chest.
While he was screaming and wailing, he swung the Reverse Immortal Pill and the Soul-Suppressing Jade at Long Aotian, intending to use the Soul-Suppressing Jade to kill him.
Seeing the Immortal-Defying Pill fly out, Zhu Panpan abandoned Lin Fan and rushed madly towards Long Aotian. Just as he was about to swallow the pill, she suddenly grabbed him and opened her mouth.
As Long Aotian watched the ugly pig's head approach, despair instantly filled his eyes.
After Zhu Panpan's fierce maneuvering, she successfully put the Immortal-Reversing Pill in her mouth, while disgustedly spitting out the Soul-Suppressing Jade.
Long Aotian lay on the ground, utterly dejected, tears streaming down his face, his stomach churning as he vomited uncontrollably.
This ugly pig actually tried to snatch the pill with its mouth, and was forced to kiss a pig's head. What's worse, it even stuck out its tongue.
I feel like this delicate flower has been trampled by a wild boar.
Lin Fan was surrounded by several powerful demonic cultivators. He felt a little regretful, wondering what had gotten into that wild boar that it was so determined to snatch the Immortal-Defying Pill. His efforts had ultimately failed, and he had almost managed to use the Soul-Suppressing Jade to kill Long Aotian, who had become a demon.
Seeing that the Immortal-Defying Pill had been stolen, the demon suffered a double blow to Long Aotian, both mentally and physically. Realizing that all was lost, the demon had no choice but to leave with Long Aotian.
"Ding: Congratulations to the host for defeating Long Aotian's mental state, stripping him of his luck, and rewarding him with the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage cultivation." The system's voice rang out, and his aura hummed and rose, finally stopping at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
Lin Fan recalled the Demon-Binding Rope and did not pursue further. The demonic path had seven Nascent Soul stage experts, making it extremely difficult for them to capture Long Aotian.
"Now that you have obtained the Immortal-Reversing Pill, then leave."
His voice was icy, carrying a hint of murderous intent.
"Hmph, the Immortal-Reversing Pill is only one of my goals, we also have..." The Pig Clan Elder stepped forward, but before he could finish speaking, a flash of azure light pierced through his chest.
The powerful pig-clan member was thrown backward, a look of horror in his eyes.
“If you want to die, I don’t mind killing you all,” Lin Fan said coldly.
The pig clan watched as Zhu Panpan swallowed the Immortal-Reversing Pill and went to find a safe place to cultivate in seclusion. Without giving it much thought, she left directly. The remaining powerful pig clan members looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally, unwilling to give up, they fled one after another.
Even if Zhu Panpan hadn't left, it would have been difficult for them to win.
Lin Fan walked towards the uncollapsed Hall of Inheritance and began to circulate his inner energy to activate the One Leaf Ice Crystal.
The Hall of Inheritance radiated a dazzling light, and a single ice crystal floated up, merging into the light of the Hall of Inheritance.
Lin Fan turned to Murong Xuanqiu and said, "Junior Sister Xuanqiu, why don't you go back to the Tiger Clan with Saintess Miaomiao first?"
“Okay, Senior Brother Lin, I’ll be waiting for you in Zhongzhou,” Murong Xuanqiu said with a smile.
Lin Fan looked at her smile and nodded slightly, then picked up the Soul-Suppressing Jade and stepped into the Emperor's Inheritance Hall.
Hong Yinping and Murong Xuanqiu also left, knowing that only one person could enter the Inheritance Hall to receive the Emperor's inheritance.
After Hong Yinping and Murong Xuanqiu left, several black mists appeared outside the Inheritance Hall. They remained silent for a moment before rushing inside.
When they touched the light of the Inheritance Hall, they were killed by the overwhelming pressure.
Upon entering the main hall, a statue of an emperor stands in the center. Over the long years, the statue is covered with cracks and a thick layer of dust.
Lin Fan stared at the statue, noticing that half of its head was missing, and wondered if the Great Emperor's legacy was truly here.
But Yi Ye Bingjing wouldn't deceive him. Looking around the Inheritance Hall, he saw that it was empty except for a statue.
"System, can I obtain the Great Emperor's inheritance?" Lin Fan asked.
"No, you need to obtain it yourself," the system replied.
If it could be taken directly from him, there would be no need to come to the Ten Thousand Mountains; he could just find a place to lie down and wait to receive the inheritance.
Lin Fan had no choice but to use a single ice crystal to continuously activate the Chu Clan's mental cultivation technique, but no matter how dazzling its light was, it failed to trigger the inheritance.
"Junior Lin Fan, the Central Plains is about to fall into danger and turmoil due to the invasion of evil spirits. I humbly request Senior Tianchen to bestow upon me his inheritance!" Lin Fan bowed to the statue with a respectful attitude.
There was no sound from inside the main hall. Lin Fan frowned, wondering if he wasn't sincere enough.
So he knelt down and kowtowed to the statue, performing three kneelings and nine prostrations, showing perfect etiquette.
The main hall was quiet; there was still no movement.
"Are you going to demonstrate your abilities?"
This succession doesn't even give any hints; who knows what kind of successor he's looking for?
Then he practiced swordplay and fist techniques several times in the main hall, but to no avail.
"Could the inheritance be a physical object?" Thinking this, he took out the Immortal Execution Sword and used it as a shovel, digging everywhere in the inheritance hall, digging three feet into the ground, but he still couldn't find what he imagined.
"System, can you give me a hint?" he asked, puzzled.
