Lin Fan looked at the surrounding crowd with a smile.
"Since you wish to die, this seat will grant your wish."
He smiled, his voice echoing all around.
As his words fell upon their ears, everyone present showed looks of astonishment.
No way?
You're already surrounded, so what if you're a cultivator of the God Transformation realm? There are more than five God Transformation realm cultivators here surrounding you.
You're about to die, and you still have the mood to smile? Is this person perhaps an idiot?
The crowd dared not speak their minds, but they were all grumbling internally.
In their eyes, Lin Fan's fate was sealed. There was only one outcome: he would be captured, and whether he could survive would depend on the mercy of the elders of the Fuyao Sect.
"Insolent! A mere God Transformation realm cultivator dares to speak such words? No need to wait any longer, strike him down immediately!"
"Yes!"
The surrounding enforcement cultivators grinned and attacked, intending to kill Lin Fan in one go. On one hand, it was to deter others and showcase the might of the Fuyao Sect. On the other hand, it was to show others the consequences of daring to provoke the Fuyao Sect.
"Nine Thousand Li Sword Art!"
Boom!
Streams of cyan sword energy were unleashed from the hands of the enforcement cultivators.
Countless cyan sword energies pierced through the air, and they seemed to already see Lin Fan's tragic end.
However, they were soon stunned.
Lin Fan, with a look of disdain, extended a finger and flicked it gently. Instantly, the void cracked open.
Dark spatial rifts appeared in the void like shattered glass.
"What... what is this?" they shouted in shock.
But in the next moment, these spatial rifts swallowed them whole. Before they could even cry out, their flesh and blood were completely consumed by the spatial rifts.
"You... who exactly are you?"
The enforcement cultivator, who was in the Soul Formation stage, pointed at Lin Fan with a look of terror, his voice trembling.
Lin Fan smiled, "Who do you think I am?"
The Soul Formation stage enforcement cultivator's eyes widened. "I don't know! You... you can't kill me, I am an elder of the Fuyao Sect. If you kill me, the elders will not let you go!"
He had already determined Lin Fan's power. In his mind, Lin Fan was definitely not a strong cultivator of the God Transformation realm, because even he couldn't shatter space.
Could he be in the Tribulation Passing stage?
But could a Tribulation Passing stage expert really shatter space?
He fell into doubt.
Suddenly, his pupils dilated to their widest. A finger as white as jade appeared before his eyes. With a gentle flick of that finger, his forehead shattered like glass.
"I... I am not reconciled..." Before he could finish his words, his soul was annihilated.
Lin Fan looked at the corpse on the ground, waved his large hand, and a gust of gray wind swept over.
Rustle!
After a few gusts of wind, all the corpses on the ground turned into dust and were blown away by the wind.
Lin Fan's expression was blank, as if he were doing something insignificant. But to the eyes of the onlookers, this scene was like an earthquake, sending tremors through their hearts.
"This... he killed the enforcement cultivators!"
"What are we going to do? Will we be affected?"
"Probably not. Besides, this senior is so powerful, he might not be afraid of the Fuyao Sect."
"What nonsense are you spouting? Even though this senior is powerful, he's at most in the Tribulation Passing stage. The Fuyao Sect is the strongest orthodox sect, and they have no less than ten elders in the Tribulation Passing stage. He's finished."
"Quick, look, the Fuyao Sect is ringing the alarm bell!"
"......"
Everyone turned their heads and saw the sounds of bells echoing.
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
The bells rang out in all directions, and faint lights flickered from the gates of the Fuyao Sect.
Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp!!!
The sound of footsteps echoed. Everyone looked up and saw ten Fuyao Sect elders of varying ages descending from the void.
They exuded extraordinary presence. Some looked like immortal recluses, others were dashing and unrestrained, and some were refined and handsome...
They stood in the void, like celestial beings descending to the mortal world, exuding an inexplicable pressure.
The onlookers were startled by this scene and no longer dared to watch. They quickly retreated tens of miles, observing from afar.
These were the ten great elders of the Fuyao Sect personally arriving! A great battle was about to ensue. If they didn't retreat far enough, they would likely be killed by the residual energy.
Although the Fuyao Sect had a good reputation, it was only towards cultivators of the same level.
To the weak, they were merely low-level cultivators, no different from ants on the road. If one accidentally stepped on them, perhaps not even a shred of compassion would arise.
Therefore, when facing ordinary cultivators, their arrogance was hard to conceal.
Even though Lin Fan had displayed his power, in their eyes, Lin Fan was merely a Tribulation Passing stage expert. However, they had ten Tribulation Passing stage experts. With a numerical advantage, they were naturally arrogant.
At this moment, the First Elder looked down at Lin Fan with a mocking expression.
"Fellow Daoist, you killed our sect's enforcement cultivators. Do you know your crime?"
As his voice fell, Lin Fan frowned.
Li Qin looked up at these legendary powerful beings, being suppressed by their aura to the point of being unable to lift his head. But he gritted his teeth and persisted, his eyes filled with defiance.
Lin Fan waved his hand, and Li Qin was uncontrollably sent flying towards the Blue Dragon.
"Blue Dragon, protect him!"
"Roar!" The Blue Dragon roared, flapping its wings and shielding Li Qin.
The First Elder glanced at it but didn't pay it any mind. In his eyes, the Blue Dragon was not weak, but how could a mere demonic beast be their opponent?
Lin Fan smiled, "Your arrogance is so great, be careful not to fall, and suffer even more!"
The Second Elder, who appeared as a dashing young man, frowned and shouted angrily, "Your words are presumptuous! Today, I will let you know the consequences of offending my Fuyao Sect!"
The First Elder raised his hand. "Our Fuyao Sect is the leader of the orthodox sects. How can we engage in random fighting and killing? Since this fellow Daoist has killed our sect's enforcement cultivators, please do not resist and accept our punishment! Don't worry, according to our sect's laws, you will not die!"
Lin Fan frowned upon hearing this. He wouldn't die, but he would be imprisoned, wouldn't he!
"It seems you truly don't distinguish between right and wrong, nor do you investigate the reasons for the incident before sentencing me. Forget it, today I shall annihilate your sect!"
As soon as his words fell, everyone was stunned, and then they burst into laughter.
Even the First Elder, who had been feigning profundity, laughed.
"Hahaha, truly ignorant of heaven and earth! You wish to kill us?"
"Doesn't he know we are all in the Tribulation Passing realm?"
"You are in the Tribulation Passing realm, and so are we. How can you fight ten of us?"
"We are people of the Fuyao Sect. Each of us is a genius, with few rivals among peers. Let alone you fighting ten of us, even in a one-on-one fight, you are no match for us!"
"This is hilarious! Let this old man kill such a madman."
"......"
Everyone mocked him, looking down on Lin Fan.
Lin Fan sighed. It was impossible not to be angry.
He clasped his hands behind his back, sighed, and said, "Alas, since you seek death, I shall grant it!"
He took a step forward, ascending into the sky, and faced the ten elders directly.
