Cut off my way home? You'll sacrifice the entire other world in return!

It raised its hand very slowly.

It's like adapting to this completely new body.

The imprisoned monks all held their breath.

They didn't know what would happen next.

But they knew it couldn't be anything good.

"Demon, Demon Lord, spare me!"

An old man was the first to break down.

He was the Supreme Elder of the Southern Sword Sect, who had lived for 2,800 years and had never bowed his head to anyone.

But at that moment he knelt down.

His knee slammed into the ground with a dull thud.

"I am willing to offer up all the resources of the Sword Sect! All its cultivation techniques! All its disciples!"

"Please, Demon Lord, have mercy!"

His voice was choked with sobs.

dignity?

face?

These things are worthless in the face of death.

With someone taking the lead, the other cultivators also knelt down.

"Spare me!"

"We are willing to submit!"

"I will be your slave forever! I will never betray you!"

Cries for mercy rose and fell.

But Taiyi's hands did not stop.

Its five fingers slowly spread open.

His palms faced the kneeling monks begging for mercy.

"Noisy."

It opened its mouth.

His voice was still hoarse.

But there was a hint of annoyance.

The pleas for mercy abruptly ceased.

It's not that they don't want to shout anymore.

Instead, he couldn't shout anymore.

Their mouths were still opening and closing.

My throat is still vibrating.

But no sound came out.

"this…...…"

Li Fan raised an eyebrow slightly.

He did not make a move.

Taiyi simply opened his palms.

But then the monks' voices disappeared.

"law?"

Li Fan said softly.

He nodded slightly.

"The Laws of Sound."

It said, "I can sense them, those laws that flow in the air, forming the foundation of this world, and I can... manipulate them."

Li Fan remained silent.

Taiyi continued to raise his hand.

This time, its finger pointed to the distant land.

Countless corpses lay scattered there.

These were all cultivators who had been slaughtered by Li Fan before.

There is a Beast Taming Manor.

There is a sacred site in Taihua.

Various major sects came to besiege them.

There are too many.

So many that they covered the entire valley surrounding Demon Peak.

The blood had already congealed.

The body began to decompose.

A putrid stench permeated the air.

Taiichi gently beckoned with his finger.

"rise."

One word.

"Click."

"Click, click."

A sound rang out.

The corpses moved.

It's not a case of a zombie coming back to life.

It's the bones that are remodeling.

Flesh and blood were peeled off the skeleton, turning into pools of pus that seeped into the ground.

All that remained were bare bones.

The bones began to assemble themselves.

The skull is back in place.

Spinal connection.

The limbs were put together.

Skeletons rose from the ground.

Their eye sockets burned with eerie green flames.

That is soul fire.

It was Taiyi who gave them consciousness.

"This is…....…"

The imprisoned monk stared wide-eyed.

He recognized the skeletons.

"That's my senior brother!"

"That's Elder Zhang!"

"That's...that's the sect leader!"

A terrified voice rang out.

Those skeletons were once their fellow disciples.

They are their elders.

They are their relatives.

But now they've become puppets.

Standing behind Taiyi.

At your service.

Taiichi's hands continued to move.

More bones emerged from the ground.

From the valley.

From a pool of blood.

One body.

Ten objects.

One hundred.

One thousand.

The number is still increasing.

Soon, the area around Demon Peak was filled with an army of skeletons.

Densely packed.

It stretches as far as the eye can see.

Conservative estimates put the number at least at 100,000.

These are just the remains near Demon Peak.

If we include the entire Central Plains...

Those cultivators who died during Li Fan's process of raising Gu...

That number will be so large it will drive people to despair.

"The Way of Jade Purity."

Taiyi withdrew his hand and calmly said, "I control life and death, manipulate corpses, and use the dead for my own purposes."

Li Fan nodded.

"good."

Two words.

That's a form of approval.

A hint of...satisfaction flashed in Taiyi's eyes?

"continue."

Li Fan said.

Taiyi raised his hand again.

This time it was directed at the kneeling monks.

Those living monks.

"etc!"

A voice rang out.

He was a young man.

Wearing a magnificent brocade robe and a jade pendant hanging from his waist, he was clearly from a noble family.

His cultivation level was not high, only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

But he was very bold.

Or perhaps he has been driven to the brink of despair.

"I am the eldest son of the royal family of the Eastern Region!"

He shouted, "My father is the ruler of the Eastern Region! If you kill me, he will never let it go!"

Taiyi glanced at him.

His gaze was calm.

It's like looking at an ant.

"The ruler of the Eastern Region?"

Taiyi repeated the title.

Then it turned to look at Li Fan.

"Father God, what is the Lord of the Eastern Region?"

Li Fan's lips curled up slightly.

"A dog."

He said, "When I blocked the Central Plains before, he was the first to send tribute."

He nodded slightly.

"Understood."

It withdrew its gaze and looked at the young man again.

"Your father is a dog."

Taiichi said, "So you're a bastard."

"you--"

The young man's face turned bright red.

But he was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

Taiyi's brow cracked.

The vertical mark that had been tightly closed for so long finally came to life.

A beam of light shot out the instant it cracked open.

The light had no color.

Or rather, its color is beyond the range that the human eye can perceive.

All that can be seen is a distorted trajectory.

A straight line from Taiyi's brow to the young man.

"puff."

The youth disappeared.

There was no blood.

No meat.

There are no bones.

Nothing was left behind.

It was as if he had never existed.

It wasn't just him.

The space behind him also disappeared.

A straight ravine appeared on the earth.

It is about ten feet wide and its bottom is not visible.

The ravine stretched to the horizon.

Everything in its path was annihilated.

The kneeling cultivators were all dumbfounded.

Their minds were blank.

What just happened?

What about the eldest son of the Wang family?

What about the mountain behind him?

What about the river?

Where have they all gone?

"The Way of Shangqing."

Taiichi's voice rang out.

The vertical line between his eyebrows closed again.

"Destroy everything."

It was said in a very plain way.

Li Fan walked to the edge of the ditch and looked down.

A pure abyss.

Even space itself has been erased.

"What about the range?"

he asks.

Taiichi thought about it.

"have no idea."

It answered honestly, "I only used ten percent of my strength in that attack; it should still be flying."

Li Fan paused for a moment.

"Who will get hurt?"

Taiichi shook his head.

"This direction leads to the East China Sea. Beyond the East China Sea lies the desolate region, and beyond the desolate region lies the outer starry sky. It shouldn't damage anything important."

Li Fan nodded.

"Pay attention to the direction next time."

"Yes."

Taiyi responded.

Those kneeling cultivators nearly fainted from fright upon hearing this conversation.

Only used 10% of his strength?

That attack only used one-tenth of its power?

What exactly is this monster?

"continue."

Li Fan spoke again.

He nodded slightly.

This time it didn't raise its hand.

He didn't open his brow or reveal the vertical line between his eyebrows.

It just stood there.

He quietly watched the monks.

then.

Someone made a move.

An old man suddenly stood up and rushed towards Taiyi.

He now held a sword in his hand.

That was his natal magical artifact.

The sword was shimmering with seven-colored light and contained terrifying power.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

The old man roared.

He is the number one swordsman in the Western Regions.

It has lived for three thousand years.

I've killed a demon.

He slew the Demon King.

I never knew what fear was.

But today he was afraid.

He was terrified.

So he chose to fight desperately.

It's better to die standing than kneeling.

The seven-colored longsword pierced towards Taiyi's chest.

The sword energy whistled through the air.

Space torn apart.

He used all his cultivation for this sword strike.

Taiyi neither dodged nor blocked.

It just stood there, acting all high and mighty, just like its creator, Li Fan.

As the sword came hurtling towards him.

"bite."

A soft sound.

The tip of the sword was pressed against Taiyi's chest.

Then it stopped.

It can't be pierced.

The old man's eyes widened.

He saw his sword pressed against Taiyi's clothes, but the clothes didn't even have a single wrinkle.

"How is that possible?"

He refused to believe in superstition and frantically activated his spiritual power.

The sword trembled.

The sword energy surged.

But it still couldn't penetrate.

It couldn't penetrate even a fraction of an inch.

Taiyi looked down at the sword.

"The Way of Taiqing."

It says, "It is inviolable by any law."

Then it raised its hand and pinched the sword with two fingers.

With a gentle fold.

"Click."

The natal magic weapon that had been with the old man for three thousand years broke.

The old man spat out a mouthful of blood.

His cultivation level dropped by two major realms after his natal magic weapon was destroyed.

But he couldn't care less about any of that.

He turned and ran.

We have no choice but to run.

This monster is simply beyond his ability to deal with.

But he only ran three steps.

A skeletal arm emerged from the ground and grabbed his ankle.

He looked down.

It was a skeleton.

He knows him.

That was a demon he killed three hundred years ago.

"you…....…"

He hadn't finished speaking.

More skeletons emerged from the ground.

To drown him.

A scream rang out.

It disappeared again very quickly.

When the skeletons dispersed, the old man had already turned into a skeleton.

Standing amidst the army of skeletons.

He became one of them.

"interesting."

Taiyi said softly.

It discovered that its three forms could be used in combination.

Yuqing manipulates the corpses.

The Shangqing destroyed everything.

The Great Purity is impervious to all laws.

The combination of these three elements has virtually no weaknesses.

"Let's start cleaning."
