At this moment, Lin Fan hovered in midair, gazing ahead intently.
The “Sword Canon” was a supreme-grade celestial technique, possessing peerless might—it was the origin of all swords.
Now, working in harmony with the “Heavenly Sword,” its power had multiplied exponentially. What surprised Lin Fan even more was that the “Heavenly Sword” was showing signs of forming a second sword intent.
“Roar…”
The humanoid beast crouched low and roared, its eight airborne tails appearing ferocious and grotesque, as if it were furious at this sudden intruder.
Countless sword intents condensed into massive blades, densely filling the void, exuding sharp, piercing auras.
“Annihilate.”
At this moment, Lin Fan gently flicked his finger, unleashing his aura to its peak. The sky filled with sword intent, vibrating with a buzzing hum. In an instant, with a sharp whistle, the blades tore through the heavens and earth, streaking across the sky like they were ripping open the very fabric of space.
The sky filled with swords rained down like a storm, blotting out the sun and engulfing all the beasts.
Everyone standing atop the city wall was stunned speechless by the spectacle before them—none had ever witnessed such a scene.
It was overwhelming—this was a world of swords.
Throughout the void, blade after blade, sharp and gleaming, slashed through the air toward the beast horde.
“Boom! Boom!”
“Ding! Congratulations on defeating a high-tier先天 beast.”
“Ding! Congratulations on defeating a peak先天 beast.”
“Ding! Congratulations on defeating a novice divine beast.”
…
At this moment, Lin Fan’s mind was flooded with system notifications. One beast after another was being slain, drops of their essence spilling out, and the experience gained was so immense it frightened him.
Although the experience from each individual beast wasn’t particularly large, wiping out a whole group at once caused his experience to skyrocket.
The endless sword intent seemed inexhaustible, continuing without pause.
Within the beast horde, the humanoid beast roared in fury as blade after blade struck its body, producing metallic clangs.
The weaker beasts, however, were instantly pierced through, turned into swiss cheese in the blink of an eye.
“Roar!”
Enraged beyond measure, the humanoid beast swung its eight tails, shattering the swords in midair. Then, its sharp claws dug into the ground, and with a furious roar, the earth trembled. A massive chunk of land was ripped up and hurled toward Lin Fan.
Lin Fan watched the scene unfold, a faint smile curling his lips. With a flick of his finger, the scattered sword intents instantly fused together, forming a single, powerful sword intent that cleaved the incoming earth in two.
At this moment, the system notifications ceased. Lin Fan understood—the remaining beasts were beyond what his sword intent could slay.
Xiao Li Hai and the others were completely stunned, their minds blank with shock at the spectacle.
“So powerful…”
To Xiao Li Hai, this was no longer a human’s strength. Even the disciples from the sects were like ants in comparison.
With a wave of his hand, Lin Fan dispersed the countless swords from the sky in an instant.
This battle was beyond their ability to interfere. At the moment when Qingling Prefecture was on the verge of destruction, encountering such a mighty expert was truly a sign of divine providence.
One step. Two steps.
Lin Fan floated before the humanoid beast, his expression slightly grave.
The small heavenly realm, peak stage.
In terms of power, his opponent completely outclassed him, but in terms of physical defense, he still had a chance to fight back.
On Lin Fan’s shoulder, the little rooster, Ji Zi, looked at the massive creature before him, visibly shrinking back in fear. Its usual flamboyant crowing was nowhere to be heard now.
“Ji Zi, the rest of those beasts are yours. This big guy is mine,” Lin Fan patted Ji Zi’s head, then gently placed it down before facing the humanoid beast directly.
“You’ve got guts? Follow me then,” Lin Fan taunted with a mocking gesture, then flew toward the nearby forest.
“Roar!” The beast’s eyes flared with fury, and with a deafening roar, it charged after Lin Fan.
…
“Lord, this…” At this moment, Xiao Lie’s expression changed. The mighty experts had left, and the terrifying humanoid beast had gone too, but the other beasts were still here.
“What is that over there…” Xiao Li Hai gazed forward in confusion.
At that moment, Ji Zi stared at the endless horde of beasts before it, its feathers trembling slightly.
“Ooooo…” Ji Zi let out a soft crow. Unlike its usual bold and arrogant tone, this time it sounded rather timid.
It was as if it were saying, “Honored seniors, please proceed. I won’t get in your way.”
The divine-stage beasts howled fiercely, exchanged glances, and finally began advancing toward Qingling Prefecture.
“Lord, it’s bad! The beasts are coming!” Xiao Lie panicked, unsure of what had happened. What exactly was this creature left behind by that mighty expert?
“Alright, everyone, prepare for battle!” Xiao Li Hai shouted. The expert had lured away the humanoid beast, so the rest of the horde was now their responsibility.
The endless tide of beasts marched forward with terrifying steps. Each step shook the earth.
Even without the humanoid beast, the sight before them was enough to send chills down their spines.
At this moment, Ji Zi stood stiffly, its head lowered, clearly showing signs of cowardice. Its cute little eyes flickered with fear, its wings drawn tightly around it as it stood still.
Amidst the towering beasts, Ji Zi looked small and insignificant.
At that moment, a beast passed by Ji Zi, arrogantly raised its paw, tapped Ji Zi on the head, then growled lowly and continued forward.
The beasts marched slowly past, while Ji Zi stood motionless, head lowered, silently watching through its featherless wings.
Atop the city wall, the soldiers launched an attack, but against the divine-stage beasts, their efforts were useless.
“Lord, it’s no use!” Xiao Lie looked at the situation before him, once again falling into despair.
Xiao Li Hai’s body trembled slightly. The aura exuding from the beasts was terrifying. Before such might, there seemed to be no resistance possible.
It’s over… completely over. Even though that mighty expert had helped them so much, it was still of no avail. Was Qingling Prefecture truly doomed to destruction?
Was this all fate’s design?
But at that very moment,
A strange sound echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
“Ooooo…”
The timid Ji Zi, standing meekly among the beasts, suddenly had a gleam of cunning in its cute little eyes. With a sudden leap, it spread its wings, straightened its legs, raised its proud head, and crowed toward the heavens.
Its figure was so majestic. Mid-leap, Ji Zi shook its head, its cute eyes flashing with a sharp, commanding gaze.
That was the contempt of a king…
“What’s going on…” Hearing the sound, Xiao Li Hai and the others turned their gazes toward the beast horde.
Suddenly, the entire sky changed…
