Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 490 A Narrow Escape

"Kill him! The remnants of the Heavenly Court must not be allowed to live!"

The pupils of those people contracted, some used their ancestral techniques, some swung their spears, and some lashed out with their dragon tails, all charging towards Lin Fan.

As if sensing something, they all became extremely serious and did everything in their power to kill Lin Fan.

"Ha, too late!"

Lin Fan sneered, his abdomen glowing as doors opened one after another, merging together and gushing forth endless life force, allowing him to recover rapidly.

However, soon, something unusual happened. A black aura emerged from inside the door, attempting to corrode his body and corrupt his soul.

In fact, this is not black energy, but turbid energy. It not only hinders spiritual practice, but also drives people's minds crazy.

If a living being absorbs too much of this polluted energy, it will not only be unable to progress further in its life, but its lifespan will also be greatly reduced.

However, Lin Fan was not worried, because from some of the gates, pure energy was also surging out, purifying everything and opposing the turbid energy.

Furthermore, the two different types of energy, one descending and the other ascending, cleverly achieved a balance.

This is the human body, just like the external world, it is also balanced, containing vitality and also death.

Most remarkably, the turbid air released from the portal connected together, sinking down to become "earth," while the pure air rose up to become "heaven."

It looked as if a world had been created within his dantian.

Furthermore, when a certain limit is reached and the "heaven and earth" are constructed, the two gases, while opposing each other, are also merging.

Soon, a new kind of energy formed, a misty white fog that filled the world, sacred and divine, like the breath of immortals.

Lin Fan called it—Qi!

At the same time, this energy is not simple; it contains the most primal energy of the universe and is the source of life. Once activated, it possesses unimaginable power.

"boom!"

Immediately, Lin Fan used this energy to not only repair his physical body and unleash boundless power, but also to replenish his vitality.

At the same time, the heavens and earth trembled, and various auspicious phenomena appeared, with colorful clouds and celestial light spreading across the sky and covering the earth.

Then, sacrificial music began, as if to comfort the ancestors, and as a result, all the ancient corpses disappeared and returned to their tombs.

In addition, true dragons soared, divine phoenixes danced, white tigers roared... various immortal spirit imprints manifested, and strange phenomena shook the heavens and the earth!

Even the earth and the void were covered with many medicinal herbs, and golden lotuses bloomed one after another, as if we had arrived in a celestial realm.

……

In an instant, there were so many strange phenomena, one after another, dozens in just a few breaths, making this starry sky seem sacred.

However, all these dramatic changes can be attributed to Lin Fan taking that step and starting his own system and path.

"kill!"

Along the golden avenues, the figures standing there went mad, all taking action, unwilling to give Lin Fan another chance.

"I'll use you all to test just how powerful my newly created system really is!"

Lin Fan roared, exuding confidence, unparalleled charisma, and an aura that seemed to swallow mountains and rivers.

He opened up the first step of Qi Refining—the Qi Sea, which was equivalent to rebuilding the foundation of the Great Dao. His strength underwent a qualitative change, which was extraordinary.

Although it is not yet perfect and lacks some details, it can be refined in the years to come, and its true divine power can already be displayed.

After all, the doors inside the body are the key; opening so many at once generates unimaginable power!
"Qiang!"

Suddenly, before they could exchange another blow, a shocking change occurred: something crashed down from the sky, releasing an immortal celestial light!
At first glance, it appears sacred, radiating countless rays of auspicious light, hazy and peaceful, like a celestial treasure fallen to earth.

However, when Lin Fan saw it, a chill ran down his spine. It didn't feel like he was looking at a treasure; it felt more like he was witnessing something terrifying. "The Execution Platform!"

At that moment, Lin Fan recognized him and got goosebumps.

He had seen this object when he was undergoing his tribulation in the past. At that time, it only emitted a wisp of energy and did not actually descend, yet it almost cost him his life.

This shows how terrifying it is!

Now, the platform has truly descended, hovering close above Lin Fan's head, instantly sending chills down his spine.

"It's finally here..." Lin Fan muttered to himself, looking at the side blade above him with great apprehension, yet also as if he had expected it all along.

It's not that he's bragging; he's even experienced the Myriad Dao Diagram. It was only a matter of time before this thing came knocking on his door, since it was specifically prepared for beings who defy the heavens.

Originally, using one's own body as a seed was already going against the heavens, let alone now that he has created a new method, he has no choice but to take a hit.

Of course, his preparations did not mean he underestimated the Execution Platform; on the contrary, he was extremely wary of it and wished he had never seen it.

Throughout history, countless heroes have perished by his blade, including many immortals; otherwise, why would he be known as the "Immortal Slayer"?

"boom!"

The next moment, the Execution Platform descended, neither too close nor too far, emitting a terrifying light that directly suppressed and imprisoned the area.

Lin Fan was shocked and couldn't move. He had underestimated its true power; he hadn't expected it to be so monstrous.

Fortunately, several beings present who were comparable to the descendants of the Ten Fiends were also immobilized, giving him a slight respite; otherwise, they would have become lambs to the slaughter.

Of course, there's no difference now, it's just a matter of dying a few minutes earlier or a few minutes later!
"Looks like we have no choice but to tough it out!" Lin Fan sighed. It was impossible not to be nervous; in a sense, one chop would be fatal.

In particular, when the guillotine's divine light recedes, it carries a dark red blood-red glow, resembling a demonic weapon that has drunk the blood of the strongest!

The killing intent was chilling and surging!
"Qiang!"

Finally, the execution platform stirred; the guillotine trembled, emitting a piercing metallic scraping sound, like a death-dealing melody from hell.

Then, the dark red sword slowly rose into the sky, regaining its brilliance, even more dazzling than the sun, exuding an ethereal aura.

"Hey!"

Just then, the execution began. A figure was imprisoned on the execution platform; it was one of those people, and they too were being tortured.

With a snap, the guillotine fell, blood splattered, and the man was severed in two, a sight that horrified Lin Fan.

"boom!"

However, since these people were formed from lightning, it was no big deal if they died; they would simply transform back into a sky full of lightning and disappear.

But Lin Fan is different. He is a real living being with flesh and blood. If he were to be slashed, what would happen?
In a short while, heads rolled down one after another. The necks of the young supreme beings were severed one after another, and then it was Lin Fan's turn.

Moreover, he couldn't resist or struggle; the immortal light was like chains, binding his body and forcibly confining him to the execution platform.

"There's no other way, I can only do my best. No... I will definitely get through this!" Lin Fan shouted, trying to encourage himself.

At the same time, the guillotine emitted a bright light, accompanied by celestial mist, and fell from above as it was raised high.

"puff!"

A beam of divine light shot out, and a splash of golden blood appeared. Unlike the blood of the creatures that had been killed before, this was real blood and would not turn into lightning.

As you can see, Lin Fan's head rolled down from above, like a ball, his body torn apart – a truly gruesome sight.

After the attack, the Execution Platform dimmed, no longer dazzling and bright, and became imprisoned, as if its mission had been completed.

But, is Lin Fan really going to die like this?
