Chapter 1558 He really wants to cause a huge upheaval!
At dawn, a brilliant ray of light suddenly broke through the distant horizon, spreading out in a vast expanse of pale white.

Against the pale blue sky, a few remaining stars appeared and disappeared, and the earth was shrouded in a hazy silver-gray veil. All was quiet except for the morning mist that quietly swirled around.

Su Fan closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and quietly entered a deep underground cave.

At this moment, the cave, which had been transformed into a domain of evil spirits, was filled with an intensely thick, dark gray aura.

The surrounding rocks, gravel, and moss all twisted and transformed into all sorts of bizarre and sinister phantoms, eerily terrifying.

"call……"

After a long silence, a long exhale broke the stillness.

Su Fan slowly opened his eyes, a hint of relief flashing across them.

He had been cultivating in this cave for three years, and today he finally reintroduced the restless evil spirit energy within his body into his second Yin spirit.

Even the residual side effects of the "Wrath of the True Dragon" secret technique completely dissipated, and his physical body, soul, and other aspects of his condition were fully restored to their peak.

This recovery speed far exceeded Su Fan's initial expectations.

He originally thought it would take at least five or eight years to fully recover, but he didn't expect to succeed in just three years.

Su Fan stood up from the ground, raised his finger and flicked it lightly, a crisp snap breaking the deathly silence of the cave.

"boom……"

A dull rumble echoed through the earth, and the evil spirit domain that had shrouded the cave for years crumbled and vanished into nothingness in an instant.

As Su Fan stepped out of the cave, the rich and pure spiritual energy from the outside world rushed towards him, causing every pore on his body to open up and making him shiver involuntarily.

A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.

Now that you've fully recovered, it's time to collect some interest.

Those old fogies from the Daoist sects of the upper realm, in order to kill him, not only colluded with the demon race, but also attempted to use the true form of a great demon from the upper realm to surround and kill him.

In the end, they even spared no expense, sending the true form of Qingxuzi, who was at the Mahayana realm, to descend to the lower realm.

Su Fan was never one to passively accept things as they were. Since the other party dared to do the first thing, he had no reason not to do the fifteenth.

Thinking of this, Su Fan took out an ancient communication array plate from his waist, and with spiritual power surging at his fingertips, he sent a message directly to Xiao Yunhai of the Hidden Sword Sect.

"Fellow Daoist Yunhai, I have emerged from seclusion..."

Almost instantly, the reply came back after the message was sent, filled with joy and respect.

"Senior Brother Su Fan...you've finally emerged from seclusion! That's wonderful! Where are you right now? I'll send someone to pick you up right away..."

"No need..." Su Fan flicked his finger and replied with a message.

"You stay there, I'll go there myself. Also, don't tell anyone I've left the country yet..."

Su Fan has now been identified by the human Daoist sects of the upper realm as a heretical cultivator.

If he were to openly and legitimately contact the sects of Changping Heaven, he would only be inviting trouble for them.

At least on the surface, the two sides cannot have any connection, lest they be caught by the human race's Daoist sect in the upper realm.

"Senior brother, I'm in Hidden Sword Immortal City..."

After reading Xiao Yunhai's reply, Su Fan put away the communication array plate, and with a flicker, disappeared from the spot.

He used the "Void Thunder Escape" technique, his figure traversing through the void, and in an instant arrived outside the Hidden Sword Immortal City.

Upon landing, he quietly suppressed his cultivation level to the Nascent Soul stage to avoid being too conspicuous.

Then, Su Fan took out an inconspicuous flying boat magic treasure from his storage ring, infused it with spiritual power, and piloted the flying boat, slowly flying towards the distant immortal city.

At this moment, in the sky outside Hidden Sword Immortal City, cultivators riding various flying magical artifacts could be seen everywhere, with a constant stream of people.

Higher in the sky, flying boats of various sizes roared past, showcasing the prosperity of the immortal city.

Su Fan landed outside the immortal city and slowly walked into the city gate with the long crowd.

Compared to my last visit, Hidden Sword Immortal City has long since returned to its former bustling and lively state, and the previously grim and oppressive wartime atmosphere has completely disappeared.

Perhaps it is because Changpingtian has just recovered its lost territory, but being in the immortal city, one can clearly feel a vibrant vitality coming towards them.

The streets and alleys were bustling with noise, and the cries of vendors selling spiritual materials and magical treasures rose and fell.

Su Fan contacted Xiao Yunhai again and, following the address provided, navigated through the bustling streets and alleys, eventually arriving at a quiet and elegant luxury courtyard in the city.

Xiao Yunhai had been waiting outside the courtyard gate for a long time. When he saw Su Fan coming, he quickly went up to him, cupped his hands and bowed in respect.

"Yunhai greets Senior Brother Su Fan..."

Su Fan smiled and returned the greeting with a cupped hand, saying, "Senior Brother Xiao, you're being too polite, it's too much for me..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunhai laughed heartily and warmly stepped forward to shake Su Fan's hand.

"Senior brother is joking. Come on... let's go inside the courtyard and talk in detail..."

Su Fan followed Xiao Yunhai into the courtyard and into a quiet, secluded room in the backyard.

The two sat down cross-legged, and several female cultivators dressed in plain clothes brought them a pot of fragrant spiritual tea and lit a stick of calming sandalwood incense before quietly leaving.

Su Fan picked up his teacup and took a small sip.

As the spiritual tea entered my throat, a warm and gentle spiritual energy slowly spread, making my mind increasingly calm.

He looked up at Xiao Yunhai and got straight to the point.

"Fellow Daoist, you didn't tell anyone else that I've emerged from seclusion, did you...?"

"No, absolutely not..." Xiao Yunhai shook his head hurriedly, his tone very solemn.

"My senior brother specifically instructed me to do so, how could Yunhai dare to speak recklessly..."

Su Fan nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and slowly said, "Within the Changping Heavenly Realm, there must be quite a few avatars of those old monsters from the human race's Daoist sects in the Upper Realm..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunhai's face turned pale, and his hand holding the teacup paused slightly.

He instantly guessed Su Fan's intention, and his heart skipped a beat.

Is this kid planning to take action against those avatars from the upper realm?

He's really going to cause a huge uproar.

The fact that powerful figures from the upper realm's Daoist sects have avatars in the lower realm is something that lower-level cultivators may be completely unaware of.

However, it's already a semi-public secret among cultivators at the Integration Realm and above; no one dares to point it out, and everyone just keeps it to themselves.

But this kid Su Fan actually dared to plot against these people; he's truly vengeful and incredibly audacious.

You should know that behind those clones are top-tier figures from the Daoist sects of the upper realm.

"Senior brother..." Xiao Yunhai hurriedly spoke, his tone tinged with urgency.

"Take my advice, junior brother. You must not act rashly in this matter..."

Upon hearing this, Su Fan's lips curled into a cold smile.

"Acting rashly... Qingxuzi from the upper realm descended to the lower realm, under the pretext of slaying this 'demon,' clearly intending to kill me without leaving me any way out. Since they've already torn off all pretense, why should I be polite to them..."

"Senior brother, I'll just ask you one question: will you help me with this? If not, I'll leave immediately and won't force you..." Su Fan said, and then got up.

"Junior brother, wait a moment..." Xiao Yunhai quickly reached out and pressed him down, earnestly advising him.

"This matter is of utmost importance and must be carefully considered. We must not act rashly. The avatars of those powerful figures from the Upper Realm are scattered throughout the major sects and ancient families of Changping Heaven. If you kill them recklessly, you will offend not just one or two sects, but the entire Daoist sect of the Upper Realm..."

Xiao Yunhai knew that if he could use Su Fan as a tool to eliminate all the upper realm clones within Changping Heavenly Realm, all the major sects would actually be happy to see it happen.

However, Su Fan had done Changping Heaven a great favor by recovering lost territory, and he could not stand by and watch Su Fan step into a place of no return; he had to do his best to stop him.

"I appreciate your kindness, senior brother..."

Su Fan gently pushed his hand away, her tone revealing a hint of determination.

"Don't worry, I will take full responsibility for my actions and will never implicate Changping Heaven because of this..."

Seeing this, Xiao Yunhai sighed helplessly.

"Junior brother, you are unaware of the true nature of the Daoist sects of the Upper Realm. The faction that sent Qingxuzi to deal with you this time is still unknown. Even if you wish to seek revenge, you should at least investigate their background and distinguish friend from foe before taking action..."

Su Fan naturally understood Xiao Yunhai's reminder and knew that the other party was genuinely thinking of him.

But the pent-up anger in his heart at that moment left no room for such considerations.

It doesn't matter which mountain they're from; they're all just avatars and lackeys from the upper realm. Just kill them all.

"Senior brother, I'm too lazy to care about these things..." Su Fan's tone was indifferent, yet it carried an undeniable domineering aura.

"Anyway, Qingxuzi is already dead at my hands. If the Upper Realm wants to send someone down to deal with me again, they'll have to think twice..."

These words sounded extremely arrogant, but Xiao Yunhai wholeheartedly agreed with them.

Su Fan single-handedly killed the true forms of two powerful figures from the human and demon races who had descended to the lower realm, a feat that had already shocked all sides.

As long as Su Fan doesn't go to the Upper Realm on his own initiative, those old fogies can't really do anything about it, no matter how much they hate him.

“You…are you really sure…” Xiao Yunhai stared at Su Fan, seeing his firm gaze and unwavering resolve, and finally had no choice but to compromise.

"Fine, fine, since you've made up your mind, I'll help you this once..."

As he spoke, Xiao Yunhai told Su Fan all the specific information about the Upper Realm clones in the Hidden Sword Sect and several other sects he was familiar with in the surrounding area.

Not only that, he also took the initiative to introduce some Nascent Soul Realm elders from other sects in Changping Heaven.

They also told Su Fan that if he went to those areas, someone would secretly meet him.

With Xiao Yunhai's help, Su Fan learned everything about the cultivation levels, cave locations, and daily habits of the several upper-realm avatars within the Hidden Sword Sect.

In the early hours of the morning, all was silent. The boundless darkness, like a lurking beast, swallowed the entire land.

A biting cold wind howled past, making a piercing, whistling sound that sent chills down one's spine.

Deep within the Hidden Sword Sect's mountain gate, in a secluded cave, an old monster at the Integration Realm was sitting cross-legged, diligently cultivating.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide, a hint of panic flashing in them.

He felt a chilling and eerie aura surging in from all directions, instantly locking onto him.

Before he could even mobilize his divine sense to build a defense, that strange aura had already broken through the barrier of his sea of ​​consciousness and surged into it.

The next moment, his eyes completely glazed over, his breath stopped abruptly, and he fell silent.

The following morning, a mournful bell suddenly rang out from inside the gates of the Hidden Sword Sect, its sound echoing through the sky.

Upon hearing the bell ring, the sect disciples all showed expressions of shock.

They all knew that this bell was a death knell that would be rung when a senior cultivator at the Integration Realm within the sect perished.

What horrified them even more was that once the death knell tolled, it never stopped and tolled for an entire day.

Within a single day, three senior cultivators at the Integration Realm of the Hidden Sword Sect perished one after another.

The sect's higher-ups explained that the three seniors all died from qi deviation due to a wrong path in their cultivation.

The news caused a huge uproar throughout Changpingtian.

Everyone's first reaction was that it was unbelievable.

Three cultivators at the Integration Realm simultaneously suffering from qi deviation? That's just too absurd!

Even more strangely, in the following days, several other sects within Changping Heavenly Realm issued obituaries one after another.

More than ten Nascent Soul Realm experts perished one after another, all due to the same cause: "cultivation gone awry".

Not only that, Su Fan also easily wiped out the small team of more than ten envoys from the upper realm stationed in Changpingtian.

Moreover, they died in a large mountain, surrounded and killed by the remaining demonic beasts.

By this time, even the lowest-ranking Qi Refining disciples in the sect sensed that something was wrong.

All of this, of course, could not be hidden from the Nascent Soul Realm elders of the various sects.

They instantly guessed who was behind it all, and their hearts were filled with fear.

Su Fan, that guy, has actually become this audacious.

He's really trying to cause a huge upheaval.

Without exception, all those Nascent Soul cultivators who perished were avatars left behind in the lower realm by powerful figures from the human Daoist sects of the upper realm.

Although everyone was terrified of Su Fan's methods, they were also secretly pleased to see it happen.

After all, these upper realm clones hidden within sects enjoy a transcendent status due to the power behind them.

They act recklessly, and almost no one dares to provoke them, making them an unstable factor within various sects.

Now that Su Fan has helped eliminate all these hidden dangers, it is actually a good thing for the major sects.

Even sects in other areas of Changping Heaven sent people to contact Xiao Yunhai, hoping to meet with Su Fan.

Xiao Yunhai naturally accepted all comers, but he was now living in constant fear, worried that the Daoist sects of the upper realm would investigate.

The more sects that can participate, the more likely it is to create a situation where "the law does not punish the masses".

Anyway, it was Su Fan who did this, so they couldn't stop him, nor did they dare to.

As the upper realm clones within Changping Heavenly Realm fell one after another, the upper realm clones in other regions could no longer sit still.

This kid is way too arrogant.

He's a complete madman.

They all urgently contacted their masters in the upper realm, while simultaneously hiding in various places, attempting to evade Su Fan's pursuit.

Little did they know that their whereabouts had already been secretly monitored by people from various sects, and their every move had been truthfully reported to Su Fan.

In just over a month, Su Fan moved like a ghost across Changping Heaven, killing more than a hundred Upper Realm clones hidden in various sects.

In an instant, all the upper realm clones in the lower realm were filled with fear and unease.

Realizing they could no longer conceal their whereabouts in Changping Heaven, the upper-realm avatars of various sects had no choice but to travel to other planes by flying boat.

Because so many people died, the matter could no longer be concealed.
