A god-level alchemist, starting by manually crafting forbidden pills.

"Junior Uncle, be careful!!"

The Crimson Sun True Form erupted with a thunderous roar!

Luo Fan's muscles bulged, and he transformed into a streak of crimson light, instantly blocking Liu Linglong's path!

boom--!!!

Fist and palm collided, and a violent shockwave exploded!

A terrifying force surged through Luo Fan's arm, causing his internal organs to feel as if they had shifted.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, crashed through more than a dozen large trees, and then fell heavily to the ground!

Liu Linglong suddenly turned around.

I just happened to see Luo Fan being blasted away.

Her pupils contracted sharply.

My heart felt like it was being squeezed tightly by an invisible hand.

"Luofan!!!"

She forced back five Golden Core cultivators with a single sword strike, then helped him up, his voice trembling as he was covered in blood.

"Why...why did you do this?!"

Luo Fan coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He grinned.

That smile, though tired, was radiant.

"nonsense……"

He staggered.

He regained his composure, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stared intently into the distance.

"My shoulders aren't exactly broad."

"But I never thought of hiding behind a woman."

Liu Linglong was stunned.

She recalled what she had thought about at the Zhengyang Sect's martial arts arena—

If he were ever imprisoned, Luo Fan, that slippery fellow, would definitely run for his life at the first opportunity.

He was so smart, so afraid of death, and so good at hiding his talents.

Why would I risk my life for someone?

But now.

This sly little brat, whom she thought would run away, stood in front of her.

He took the blow head-on from a sixth-level Golden Core cultivator with his own body.

Liu Linglong's eyes reddened.

"You little rascal..."

Her voice was very soft.

"Don't do that again..."

"I...don't need you to risk your life."

"You woman, you think you can do it again? You're dreaming."

He grinned, a wild, unrestrained smile emanating from his blood.

Upon hearing this, Liu Linglong burst into laughter through her tears and gently punched him.

But her eyes were full of heartache.

They helped him steady.

The two stood side by side, looking at Liu Wentian ahead.

Luo Fan raised his hand and gave the middle finger.

"Sixth level of Golden Core, nothing special."

He smirked and beckoned with his finger, "You, come here!"

Liu Wentian's face was ashen, and he stared at Luo Fan with murderous intent in his eyes.

"court death!"

He took a step forward and headed straight for Luo Fan!

The other five Golden Core demon cultivators rushed towards Liu Linglong!

Liu Linglong's body shone with a brilliant purple light, and her aura exploded!

"If you dare hurt him, I'll kill you all!!!"

Ignoring the depletion of her spiritual energy, she activated her sword formation and engaged in fierce combat with the five Golden Core cultivators!

Sword energy surged, and killing intent soared to the heavens!

Luo Fan looked at Liu Wentian rushing towards him and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Crimson Sun True Form—Open it all!"

boom!!!

His body shone with a brilliant crimson light.

The lines beneath the skin resemble burning magma, with an extreme level of brightness!

And his muscles swelled up again, veins bulging, making him look like a fiery war god!

"Power of the Five Elements—give me all, open!"

The five colors of light—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—rotated, converged, and blended within his body!

The five elements cycle endlessly, creating a continuous cycle of life!

His aura surged once again!

Luo Fan's brows furrowed deeply.

It was because of the tearing pain coming from my meridians.

He didn't stop; he opened his left hand, and the Cold Spring Fire quietly appeared.

He opened his right hand, revealing a thousand-year-old cold jade marrow lying quietly in his palm.

The chill of extreme cold spread.

Ice and fire.

Two extreme forces began to merge in his palm.

Luo Fan's face turned deathly pale instantly, and his meridians were being torn apart inch by inch.

That kind of pain felt like being torn apart by a thousand knives.

He seemed oblivious, merely gritting his teeth as he stared at the two-colored flame lotus in his palm.

Gradually blending together.

It takes shape little by little.

finally!!

A two-colored flame lotus, the size of a fist, took perfect shape in his palm.

Half of it is a deep, dark blue, and the other half is crystal clear.

At this moment, Liu Wentian was already in front of him!

"die!"

He unleashed a palm strike, unleashing a torrent of demonic energy!

Luo Fan's gaze sharpened, and with a flick of his finger, a fiery lotus flower met the overwhelming demonic energy!

boom--!!!!!

An indescribable roar and blinding light engulfed everything!

A violent energy storm raged wildly!

One of the five Golden Core demon cultivators who were fighting Liu Linglong was blown away by the aftershock!

Liu Linglong seized the opportunity and thrust out with her sword!

puff!

The sword light pierced through the throat of the Golden Core demon cultivator!

Blood splattered!

The demonic cultivator's eyes widened.

He couldn't believe it until his death that he had died from the residual power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

The center of the explosion.

Liu Wentian strained to erect a protective barrier, gritting his teeth as he resisted the terrifying lotus of flames.

The barrier trembled violently.

Cracks appeared.

click-

The barrier shattered.

The power of the Flame Lotus was also completely exhausted.

A sinister smile crept across Liu Wentian's lips.

"Kid, your move is nothing more than..."

His smile froze.

A sword light as thin as a hair flew out from the dissipating flames.

fast.

Extremely fast.

It was so fast that Liu Wentian didn't even have time to react.

The sword light pierced through his brow.

It protrudes from the back of the head.

Liu Wentian's pupils suddenly dilated.

He opened his mouth, his voice hoarse.

"The God-Slaying Sword...!!"

puff.

He fell straight backward.

Even in death, his eyes held disbelief.

Luo Fan gasped for breath.

He was covered in blood, his veins torn apart inch by inch, with not a single part of him intact.

My vision blurred in waves.

He smiled bitterly.

He murmured softly.

"Senior sister... if you don't come soon, you'll only be able to collect my corpse..."

The voice just fell.

He could no longer hold on, everything went black, and he fell from mid-air.

"Luo Fan!"

Liu Linglong forced back four Golden Core cultivators with a single sword strike and then leaped into the air!

She caught Luo Fan as he fell, and they landed on the ground.

Looking at his pale face, his tightly closed eyes, and his body covered in blood.

Her heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly.

"You little rascal!!"

Her voice trembled, "Wake up...don't scare me..."

"Didn't you say you wanted a reward? Now that you're awake, I'll give you... anything you want..."

Luo Fan did not respond.

He lay motionless in Liu Linglong's arms.

Liu Linglong suppressed her panic and handed Luo Fan over to Midozhi, who had run over.

"Little girl, take him away!"

Midozhi took Luo Fan's hand and nodded emphatically.

"Don't worry, Senior Uncle, I will definitely bring Senior Brother Luo out safely!"

She picked up Luo Fan and ran away.

A Golden Core demon cultivator tried to stop him.

Liu Linglong stood in front of him, saying, "Your opponent is me."

Her body shone with a brilliant purple light, and the sword formation rose again, with four Golden Core demon cultivators surrounding her in the center.

Liu Linglong looked at them, her eyes filled with only icy killing intent.

Dark as ink.

Midozhi carried Luo Fan as they ran wildly through the dense forest.

The branch grazed her cheek, leaving streaks of blood.

She doesn't care.

He tripped over a tree root and fell, bruising his knee.

She got up and kept running.

"Brother Xiaofan."

"Hang in there, you said you were here for me, and told me not to be afraid."

"Now that I'm here, nothing can happen to you."

Luo Fan on his back remained motionless, only his faint breathing proved that he was still alive.

Sudden!!

Dozens of black figures surrounded them from all directions!

Midozhi's face turned deathly pale, and she staggered.

Just as she was feeling disheartened and ready to risk her life, five figures descended from the sky!

Xie Nantian stood there, covered in blood, holding his sword.

Chu Wuyai's face was pale, and blood dripped from the tip of his sword.

Shen Fu's sword was broken in half.

Zhao Jingzhou's left arm hung down, while his right hand held a sword.

Yan Wujiu was covered in wounds, yet he smiled brightly.

"Fellow disciples! Let us clear the way for Xiao Fan!"

The longsword in Xie Nantian's hand shone with spiritual light. "Follow me—kill!"

The four roared in unison and charged into the group of demonic cultivators!

Swords flashed and blades clashed, killing intent surged!

Yan Wujiu turned around and looked at Mi Duozhi.

"Junior Sister, I'm entrusting Junior Brother Luo to you."

He grinned, and with a sweeping sword, he carved a bloody path for Midozhi.

Midozhi's eyes reddened as she carried Luo Fan on her back and rushed into the night.

Running and running.

Another extremely terrifying aura descended from the sky!

The dark figure landed ten feet in front of her!

The man was masked, but his aura was incredibly powerful; he was clearly a Golden Core expert!

After sensing that aura.

Yunxi, Liu Linglong, Bai Jie, and the others all paled.

Despite their best efforts, they were unable to shake off the other party's entanglement.

In her haste, Liu Linglong suffered a new injury before her old one had healed.

On the other side, Midozhi bit her lower lip until it bled, then staggered backward.

"You, you, you... don't come any closer... if you piss me off... I'll take on ten of you..."

Chen Wenshan snorted coldly, only staring at Luo Fan on her back and sneering.

He struck out with his palm, the palm print pressing down on Midozhi!

Midozhi trembled and closed her eyes, trying to use her flesh and blood to protect Luo Fan on her back.

At the critical moment, another dark figure descended from the sky!

boom!!!

One palm against one palm!

A violent shockwave exploded!

Chen Wenshan took several steps back, his expression changing drastically.

"Who?!"

The dark figure landed slowly.

They were both masked, and their aura was deep and mysterious.

"Your grandpa!"

When that soft laugh rang out, Yunxi and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.

This must be the reinforcements Luo Fan was talking about.

Midozhi opened her eyes and stared blankly at the back of the figure blocking her way.

Manager Wang didn't turn around, and said calmly, "Little girl, quickly take the young master away, leave this to me."
