Chapter 924: Li Xiaoman Falls
Six Paths Reincarnation Fist!
This was an unparalleled fist technique recorded on the path to immortality, profound and unfathomable, possessing the wonder of seizing heaven and earth's creations. It was a shocking secret art, and from ancient times to the present, very few had mastered it.
Ye Fan evolved this technique. In this Ancient Forbidden Land, where one lost their cultivation and could not use their magical power, a strand of immortal light actually emitted from his pair of golden fists.
"What I speak is law; my body is the Dao!" At this moment, Ye Fan had an epiphany. His heart was ethereal, and his hands moved involuntarily, resonating with the abyss.
"Boom!"
He threw a punch. Heaven and earth shattered. Pure physical strength could suppress a Dao-Cutting King, rendering their magical power and cultivation useless. It possessed the might to shake heaven and earth, slay ghosts, and suppress gods.
"Slap!"
Li Xiaoman was protected by the bronze Buddha statue, yet she was still injured. This time, when she countered, a trace of blood spilled from her lips. She staggered backward, her chest heaving violently.
"You call Pang Bo a great evil, but I think you yourself are the real crocodile!" Ye Fan shouted, standing on the Five-Colored Altar. Without magical power or cultivation, he was as awe-inspiring as a war god.
"If you don't believe me, so be it. I've already told you anyway." Li Xiaoman wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Ye Fan laughed heartily, saying, "One person has tried to kill me several times, while another has shared life and death with me, sharing hardships. Tell me, how can I believe you? If you want to drive a wedge between me and Pang Bo, your methods are a bit lacking!"
"Boom!"
Li Xiaoman struck, as if ascending to immortality. Patches of light rain flew up from her entire body, and she was shrouded in a mist of immortality. She soared through the air, her delicate hands commanding dragons, tearing apart heaven and earth, aiming to split open Ye Fan's skull.
Ye Fan countered. His pair of golden fists killed anything they touched, reducing all tangible forms to dust. He struck so that the heavenly Dao resonated in harmony. Without cultivation, he could still collapse the heavens.
Clanging sounds rang out incessantly, like a divine emperor forging iron, or like the sound of refining weapons in the immortal realm reaching the mortal world. Ye Fan and Li Xiaoman battled fiercely, colliding with the bronze Buddha statue, sparks flying everywhere.
"You trust Pang Bo? Then let me ask you, when the Nine Dragons Coffin set sail from Mount Tai back then, how did he appear?" Li Xiaoman shouted, her black hair flying, her eyes flashing with colorful light.
Ye Fan's heart tightened. Back then, when they went to Mount Tai, Pang Bo wasn't present. It was only after everyone had fallen into the coffin that they discovered him after some time. It had startled many people at the time, but Pang Bo had explained it, and no one suspected anything.
"He was an extra person. What exactly is he? Think for yourself!" Li Xiaoman said.
A chill ran down Ye Fan's spine. There were indeed some suspicious points back then, but when he interacted with Pang Bo, he knew him inside and out. When discussing the past, there wasn't a single flaw. It couldn't possibly be fake.
This moment of distraction gave Li Xiaoman an opportunity. She offered up the bronze Buddha statue. If it weren't covered in cracks, it could have directly crushed a Greatly Accomplished King to death.
Fortunately, it was decayed. Even so, it nearly caused Ye Fan to suffer a great loss. Behind the fist-sized bronze statue, a halo of Buddha light rose, like a precious wheel, shaking Ye Fan's bones with crisp cracking sounds, almost breaking them, and causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
He quickly regained his focus. This was not the time for overthinking. The great enemy before him was extraordinary, possibly connected to that crocodile. A single misstep could lead to a great loss.
"You are no longer Li Xiaoman. With your methods, you wouldn't need to sow discord like this. If you want to deal with me, just show your true abilities!" After careful consideration, Ye Fan believed Pang Bo could not be the great evil. The other party was deliberately trying to disturb his mind.
"You won't leave today. It's time to finish you off!" Li Xiaoman's eyes blazed with golden light, as if two deities were seated within them. Her cultivation grew deeper. The light of Shakyamuni's Buddha statue shone everywhere, even splitting the void.
"You constantly slander Pang Bo, but do you know what you yourself have done? Today, I will suppress you!" Ye Fan shouted, his attacks becoming even more ferocious, nearly shattering the nine heavens, his killing intent fully exposed.
"Ye Fan, you have no chance. Your end has come." Li Xiaoman's eyes were also ice-cold, as chilling as two frozen pools.
The two fought fiercely. In this place, Ye Fan's Six Paths Reincarnation Fist was very special, occasionally tracing out immortal patterns, causing the abyss to roar incessantly.
Could it be that the path to immortality was not a realm, but a real ancient road, lying beneath this Ancient Abyss? This speculation sent a shiver down Ye Fan's spine.
If his thoughts were correct, then the road beneath the Ancient Forbidden Land was truly extraordinary! From this, he could also deduce the secret of why the Celestial Pivot lineage had attacked this place with their entire sect back then.
He couldn't afford to be distracted now. Ye Fan quickly gathered his thoughts and threw himself into the battle. With the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist unleashed, heaven and earth shattered!
"Boom!"
Ye Fan was divinely brave and invincible. With a single, balanced, and righteous punch, the Nine Sacred Mountains shook. One could imagine how terrifying his pure physical strength was!
Li Xiaoman stepped back, unwilling to clash head-on with those golden fists. She struck at his wrist with her delicate jade hand, trying to sever his meridians and break his tendons. Her attacks were tricky and vicious.
Above her head, after leaping onto the altar, she began to slaughter. The Six Paths Reincarnation Fist was evolved to its ultimate state. Immortal patterns densely covered the area before him, as if a divine ring was inlaid around his entire body.
Divinely brave, invincible!
Ye Fan threw six consecutive punches, causing Li Xiaoman to vomit blood profusely, staining her white clothes red. She was almost sent flying horizontally, and the sound of her bones breaking could be clearly heard.
"Ah..."
Li Xiaoman let out a long cry. A brilliant light shone from between her brows. A golden figure stepped out, rapidly enlarging. It was a golden divine crocodile!
"Crocodile Ancestor's divine fetus, so it was hiding in your Immortal Platform all along!" Ye Fan's gaze instantly turned cold.
"At this point, who do you think can save you?" The golden divine fetus merged with Li Xiaoman's physical body, and her entire being emitted strands of immortal radiance.
The divine fetus was a ray of primordial spirit light that could grow into a brand new self. It was forged by a supreme method of the demon clan that had been lost for who knows how many tens of thousands of years.
"Pity, you are merely a newly formed demon fetus, far from mature. Today, I will collect you!" Ye Fan was not afraid, but his heart ached. He had long had a premonition that something might have happened to Li Xiaoman, and now it seemed to have come true.
"Ah..."
Both of them roared, engaging in a fierce battle. Fists and feet collided, palms and legs struck. The wind howled, and clanging sounds were deafening. It was a life-and-death struggle!
At this moment, many ancient tribesmen with divine wings descended onto the altar and then flew toward the opposite sacred mountain. They dared not intervene in this battle, only wanting to pick the Nine Marvelous Divine Medicine, but they were still caught up in it, shattered into bloody pieces by the two combatants.
"Li Xiaoman, are you still there?" Ye Fan shouted.
"Naturally, I am. Sometimes she is me, sometimes I am her. We coexist. She borrows my power, and I observe the other world in her heart. This kind of wisdom is worth a thousand years of enlightenment!"
"Crocodile Ancestor, Li Xiaoman!" Ye Fan roared. He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. There was only one battle before him, and he swore to kill that golden divine crocodile.
"I have already explored and found that there is a path to immortality beneath the abyss. Why don't I send you down to help you become an immortal!" Li Xiaoman said softly, a cold, merciless smile on her lips.
"Boom!"
She activated the bronze statue. Without a doubt, this was brought from the Ancient Yinghuo Star. Originally, it was a divine object used by Shakyamuni to suppress the eighteen levels of hell, but now it had become her weapon.
The bronze Buddha statue seemed to come to life, possessing the supreme divine might to suppress the eighteen levels of hell. Ye Fan immediately somersaulted backward, automatically hiding beneath the Five-Colored Altar, grabbing its base and climbing up from another direction.
A Quasi-Emperor Forbidden Artifact!
Once it truly exerted its power, no one could withstand its edge. Even though it was suppressed by the power of desolation here, it was almost impossible to contend with.
Suddenly, Li Xiaoman stumbled. The bronze statue in her hand nearly fell to the ground. The Buddha light was fading, and more cracks appeared on it, on the verge of self-destruction.
Ye Fan seized this rare opportunity and charged forward. His essence, energy, and spirit merged, as if he had entered a state of enlightenment. He evolved the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, causing the heavenly Dao of the entire world to roar like a tsunami.
"Pfft!"
Li Xiaoman coughed up a large mouthful of blood. Many bones in her body were broken. She flew backward, nearly falling off the Five-Colored Altar.
Finally, she stopped. She spat out a mouth of primordial vital energy, the life essence of the Crocodile Ancestor's divine fetus, which prevented the bronze statue from being destroyed and preserved it.
A harmonious sound of the Dao rang out. Golden Arhats, Bodhisattvas surrounded by divine light, and ancient Buddhas, one after another, surrounded Li Xiaoman, all flashing out from the bronze statue.
She was about to deliver the final blow. This time, Shakyamuni's forbidden artifact would also reach the end of its life, unable to exist in the world any longer.
Even a Quasi-Emperor Forbidden Artifact shattered into pieces was still a divine artifact, let alone one that hadn't been destroyed yet. The Crocodile Ancestor's divine fetus offered it up, not hesitating to destroy it. One could imagine the power!
Ye Fan's heart was uncertain, but he was not afraid. He swung his golden fists, preparing to avoid the edge of the bronze statue and find an opportunity to strike forward.
"Boom!"
The Quasi-Emperor Forbidden Artifact exerted its power, sweeping across heaven and earth. It was shattering and burning, reaching an extreme level of terror. Three thousand Golden Arhats, Bodhisattvas, and Ancient Buddhas chanted sutras together, pressing forward to suppress him.
This kind of momentum was almost unstoppable!
"No!" On the Central Province side, the Monkey, Black Emperor, and others cried out. Even Qi Luo changed color. This was a fatal blow!
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a strange thing happened. Li Xiaoman's hand suddenly trembled. The bronze statue fell into the Ancient Abyss, and the overwhelming momentum disappeared.
"This... what happened?" Everyone was confused.
Ye Fan couldn't stop his fist. He tried to change its direction, but instead of hitting her chest or abdomen, it shattered her right arm into a mist of blood, splattering him with blood.
"Li Xiaoman!" He was confused.
"It's really good to be an ordinary person. It's a pity that time cannot be reversed, and we can never go back to the past." A trace of mist appeared in Li Xiaoman's eyes as she stood there in a daze.
"Li Xiaoman, what's wrong with you? Is this the real you now?" Ye Fan shouted.
"What do you think?" Li Xiaoman smiled, two streaks of crystal tears hanging on her face. Blood continuously dripped from her broken arm, impossible to stop.
"Sometimes it's you, sometimes it's the Crocodile Ancestor's divine fetus..." Ye Fan stared at her blankly.
"Think whatever you want." Li Xiaoman laughed and cried at the same time. Golden light flickered in her eyes, and killing intent appeared and faded intermittently.
"Boom!"
Terrifying killing intent appeared. Li Xiaoman's entire body blazed with golden light. Ye Fan raised his fist, ready for battle. However, at this moment, Li Xiaoman made an unexpected move. She leaped into the Ancient Abyss.
In her final look back, Ye Fan's figure was reflected in her eyes. She had a brilliant smile, but also a trace of sorrow. Tears fell. She bloomed like a firework, leaving behind an eternal light, and then disappeared into the darkness.
