Chapter 88: Execution of Sikong Yi

By letting one's spiritual consciousness traverse this colorful model, it was as if one could personally explore the Cloudwater Heavenly Palace of old.

However, besides that, the "Cloudwater Scroll" seemed to have no other special use.

"Perhaps 'Cloudwater Record' would be a more fitting name for this 'Cloudwater Scroll.'"

"Or perhaps, there's some other secret hidden within? Otherwise, why would someone offer a reward of one hundred thousand contribution points?"

Many questions instantly arose in Li Fan's mind.

But now was not the time to delve deeper.

Li Fan put the colorful model into his storage ring, then cupped his hands to the Turtle-Snake Monster, saying, "Ancestor Taiyi, please also send me away from here. I still have matters to attend to with Junior Brother Baili Chen."

A moment later, Taiyi's ancient voice sounded, "Hmm, it's good to leave. It's good..."

His reaction was the same as when he had sent Baili Chen away earlier.

A blue light enveloped Li Fan.

Subsequently, Li Fan's figure also vanished.

In front of Taiyi Hall, a long silence settled once more.

After an unknown period, a strange sound broke the tranquility.

"Zzz..." "Zzz..." "Zzz..."

It was as if blades were constantly grinding on a whetstone, or as if a giant snake was shedding its old skin.

And each time the sound occurred, countless phantom sword images appeared from the void, piercing the Turtle-Snake Monster.

"Boom!" Taiyi Hall suddenly sank, and the Turtle-Snake Monster's limbs were forced to retract.

The two black giant snakes, one at the head and one at the tail, let out a painful roar, their menacing heads intertwined as they returned into Taiyi Hall.

"Pain..." "Oh, the pain..."

Taiyi's ancient and frenzied voice, like thunder, echoed throughout the entire Cloudwater Heavenly Palace.

Within the various buildings shrouded in white mist, various terrifying sounds also seemed to emerge, constantly echoing.

The phantom swords, like a downpour, intensified abruptly.

"Roar!" The Turtle-Snake Monster's figure finally vanished.

Only an empty Taiyi Hall remained, and in front of it, an increasingly vast sword forest silently bore witness to Taiyi's eternal suffering.

The Sea of Clustered Clouds.

Li Fan's vision blurred, and he found himself back on the vast blue ocean.

However, he had already left the vicinity of the Cloudwater Heavenly Palace ruins in the central sea region.

Sensing the positions of Sikong Yi and Baili Chen, Li Fan activated his Shadow-Following Art and pursued them closely.

Simultaneously, the formless killing intent, which had been hidden and unreleased, suddenly activated.

Sikong Yi and Baili Chen immediately encountered an ambush, and their speed significantly slowed.

Meanwhile, Li Fan's speed continuously increased.

The distance grew shorter, and before long, he could vaguely discern their figures.

"Who exactly are you? I've already given you the 'Cloudwater Scroll,' so why are you still hounding us?" Sikong Yi's angry voice reached him.

Li Fan didn't reply, simply increasing his speed.

"This is too much!" Seeing this, Sikong Yi surprisingly gave up on escaping and turned to confront Li Fan.

Streaks of golden sword qi emerged from around him.

They twisted and coiled, resembling flood dragons.

With a flick of Sikong Yi's finger, the sword qi was unleashed, attacking Li Fan like flying dragons filling the sky.

As for Baili Chen, he had apparently used some secret technique, and his speed suddenly increased severalfold.

He attempted to seize the opportunity to escape towards a distant island.

"Still trying that 'golden cicada shedding its shell' trick from before? Want to use the island's teleportation array to return to Myriad Immortals Island?"

"Not a bad idea."

"Too bad I came prepared."

Li Fan watched the two, an unreadable glint in his eyes.

Ever since he had learned from afar through Jiao Xiu that Sikong Yi and Baili Chen usually acted together, Li Fan had specifically purchased some targeted magical artifacts in the Heavenly Profound Realm to deal with them more effectively.

For instance, now...

A shield wreathed in flames appeared before him, blocking all of Sikong Yi's golden sword qi.

The Scarlet Fire Shield, 350 contribution points.

It naturally countered Sikong Yi's metal-attributed sword qi.

Li Fan then took out a black chain from his storage ring.

One end was aimed at Sikong Yi, the other at Baili Chen.

With a gentle toss, the black chain rapidly extended, binding Sikong Yi and Baili Chen together with lightning speed.

The chain contracted abruptly.

Baili Chen, who was fleeing at top speed, was yanked back by the sudden pull, tumbling closer to Sikong Yi.

The Soul-Locking Chain. Li Fan had spent 958 contribution points to have it custom-made by a Foundation Establishment stage artifact refiner from the Myriad Immortals Alliance.

Once connected by the chain, the two could not move too far away from each other.

Finally, looking at the two individuals chained together, Li Fan pulled out a formation diagram.

The Azure Wood Purple Fire Array.

A hefty 1500 contribution points.

Its power was formidable; once activated, ordinary Qi Refinement stage cultivators would turn to ashes in less than an hour.

Li Fan, expressionless, activated the grand array, enveloping Sikong Yi and Baili Chen.

Although it seemed like a long process, from the moment Li Fan blocked Sikong Yi's golden sword qi to trapping the two with the grand array, it all happened in the blink of an eye.

The two had no time to react at all; they were like turtles in a jar, completely unable to escape.

"Who exactly are you?!"

Sikong Yi saw that every one of Li Fan's moves was highly targeted. How could he not understand that this had been long premeditated?

Li Fan didn't answer, instead using his Spirit-Binding Art to control Baili Chen.

Ignoring Sikong Yi's curses, Li Fan activated the grand array, burning Sikong Yi.

"Ah!"

Amidst screams, Sikong Yi turned to ash.

But...

No unusual phenomena appeared in the sky above.

Immediately afterward, the scene Li Fan had anticipated unfolded.

Beside Baili Chen, a phantom figure slowly emerged.

After a period of wriggling, the phantom gradually materialized.

Sikong Yi had revived again!

Li Fan narrowed his eyes and activated the grand array once more.

The screams continued unabated.

Sikong Yi died yet again.

After this revival, his cultivation dropped from the late Qi Refinement stage to the mid Qi Refinement stage.

Li Fan seemed to grasp something.

The purple flames flickered, and Sikong Yi faced another round of death.

Sikong Yi's curses turned into pleas for mercy. Then into tearful, agonizing entreaties.

But Li Fan remained unmoved.

This Sikong Yi was enigmatic and possessed extremely potent life-saving abilities. Having snatched the "Cloudwater Scroll," worth one hundred thousand contribution points, from him, Li Fan had already forged a mortal enmity with him.

Even if he couldn't force out Sikong Yi's secrets, Li Fan would never let him escape.

The Azure Wood Purple Fire Array was activated repeatedly.

Soon, Sikong Yi's cultivation had plummeted to only the early Qi Refinement stage. A look of despair appeared on his face.

He broke down, begging Li Fan for mercy. To survive, he chose to reveal all his secrets.

Li Fan listened silently, his expression continuously shifting.

Finally, the purple flames blazed.

After dying three times in a row, Sikong Yi failed to revive again.

As for Baili Chen, after Sikong Yi's death, he too turned into dust and completely vanished from existence.

Where Sikong Yi had vanished, a black token quietly floated in the air.

Li Fan picked up the token, and a piece of information immediately appeared in his mind: "He who holds this token shall wield the Heaven-Stealing and Sun-Changing Sect."
