High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Endless sword energy swept in, covering the sky and the earth.

Upon seeing this, the few Maple Kingdom people at the forefront hesitated for a moment before rushing forward.

They were just a hair's breadth away from breaking through the sword energy's blockade and being safe.

However, they underestimated the power of the sword energy. After taking only one or two steps, their bodies, like the surrounding buildings, turned into dust.

The others behind them were terrified when they saw this, and no longer dared to take any chances, so they all stopped in their tracks.

"roar!"

Strange roars rose and fell.

The people who were just moments ago dressed impeccably and exuded an air of refinement have all transformed into blue-faced, fanged vampires and werewolves.

The blood around the former gathered into a small river, resisting the surrounding sword energy.

The latter, on the other hand, relied on its powerful physique and amazing regenerative ability to withstand the attack.

"This is?"

The Liang family patriarch stared wide-eyed, his eyes filled with disbelief.

In his opinion, among the people who have lived from a thousand years ago to the present, he is not the strongest, but in terms of swordsmanship, he believes that while he may not be the best, he can still rank in the top three.

Those who were qualified to rank ahead of him were all top-tier powerhouses of their time, and he was completely convinced of their superiority.

But what he was seeing was completely unexpected.

A mere youth has actually unleashed the sword energy domain that he's always dreamed of learning? How is that possible?

It was that moment of shock that made him disappear in an instant.

The patriarchs of the Liu and Bai families, located in the other two directions, were certainly not there to marvel like the deceased patriarch of the Liang family.

With lightning speed, the Liu family patriarch donned a yellow cassock, covering his entire body, and then ran forward without looking back.

Countless sword energies slashed at the kasaya, which, despite appearing to be just a piece of cloth, was as hard as steel.

However, it's also noticeable that the robe has been marked by sword energy, and with the passage of time, many gaps have appeared on it. But it seems that it's enough for him to leave this sword energy domain.

"An indestructible golden body!"

The Bai family patriarch roared and transformed into a golden figure. Sword energy slashed at him, making a continuous clanging sound.

However, he hesitated, unsure whether he should stay where he was or charge forward.

To outsiders, isn't this obvious? Of course, we should take advantage of this time to rush out.

The Bai family patriarch also wanted to.

However, even an indestructible golden body has its weaknesses.

Sword energy was everywhere around him. If he remained still, he could protect his vital points from being injured by the sword energy. However, if he moved forward, it was hard to say whether he could protect himself.

Therefore, he felt deeply regretful as he watched the Liu family patriarch about to run away.

Knowing that this would happen, he should have carried one or two treasures with him. However, these treasures were all priceless. It was only by chance that the Liu family patriarch was able to possess that bright cassock.

Besides, the Bai family has always been known for its defensive martial arts. Even if he had the chance to obtain a treasure, he would not choose this kind of defensive treasure.

"No need to rush."

The Bai family patriarch glanced at Chen Fan. He admitted that the boy's strength was indeed terrifying, as he had created such a large sword energy domain. However, this also meant that his consumption was extremely high and he couldn't maintain it for long.

Once the surrounding sword energy field shrinks or the power of the sword energy within it weakens, he can seize the opportunity to escape.

"Oh no, he's going to run away!"

While deeply shocked, Shi Tao also noticed the Liu family patriarch who was about to escape, and said anxiously.

"He can't escape."

Chen Fan sneered.

As soon as he finished speaking, the number of sword energies and their speed of flight around the Liu family patriarch more than doubled.

After all, as the master of this sword energy domain, Chen Fan could naturally control which area had more sword energy and which had less.

The effect is immediate.

There was a ripping sound.

The robe worn by the Liu family patriarch had a tear about an arm's length in it.

Upon hearing this voice, the Liu family patriarch was terrified and his face changed drastically.

To his surprise, more crisp sounds rang out, and finally, the entire robe was torn to pieces, revealing his figure.

Countless sword energies lashed at him. Although he had true essence protecting him, it seemed he couldn't hold out for long, since he didn't have the same abilities as the Bai family patriarch.

"Young friend, spare me! Young friend, spare me!"

He quickly shouted.

This triggered a chain reaction, and the surviving people of Feng Kingdom began to beg for mercy.

"Friends, please let us go."

"Friends, please don't kill us. If you can spare us, we'll agree to whatever you ask."

"No, no!"

There were fewer than ten people left from Maple Kingdom.

Most of those who died were vampires.

Their physical abilities were far inferior to those of werewolves, and the amulets they carried were utterly incapable of withstanding such a powerful attack. Furthermore, the teleportation amulets were rendered useless due to the instability of the surrounding space.

The situation for the remaining werewolves is not optimistic either.

After transforming into werewolves, their physical defense was no less than that of the Bai family patriarch, and perhaps even stronger.

However, their bodies were much larger, generally four or five times the size of the Bai family patriarch. This also meant that in the same amount of time, they would receive four or five times more sword energy attacks than their opponents.

Therefore, let alone running out, even taking a single step forward is a huge challenge for them.

At this moment, they were all missing limbs, looking incredibly pitiful.

Chen Fan remained unmoved.

He had issued warnings before, but these people ignored them.

Then you can't blame him.

"Young friend, do you know what you're doing?" The Liu family patriarch gritted his teeth in hatred, but his life hung in the balance, so he could only feign kindness and say, "Young friend, if you kill us all, it will surely bring disaster upon yourselves. When the five elders of the council arrive, everyone in your Jiangnan Martial Arts Association will be wiped out! Stop now before things get irreversible!"

"Yes, young friend, you have already killed quite a few people from Feng Kingdom, even that brat from the Xu family died at your hands. Isn't that enough to quell your anger? Stop now," the Bai family patriarch earnestly advised. "If you stop now, we can put in a good word for you. There is still room for redemption. Don't make another mistake."

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"

Chen Fan sneered.

A moment later, two or three more people from Feng Kingdom disappeared into the sword energy field.

The remaining people are struggling to hold on.

Despair had begun to set in.

Just like the Bai family patriarch at the beginning, he thought the other party wouldn't last long, but gradually he found that he couldn't hold on any longer.

While the indestructible golden body has a limited duration, it can end prematurely if subjected to a fierce attack.

Once it ends, that will be the time of his death.

Thinking of this, he could no longer suppress his anger and roared at Chen Fan, "Kid, do you really intend to kill us all?"

"Young friend, you should show mercy when you can. If you spare me, I am willing to offer up the divine and demonic martial arts techniques of my family," the Liu family patriarch said reluctantly.

"No need. I will naturally retrieve the divine and demonic martial arts of your Liu family after you die," Chen Fan replied.

He wouldn't be so kind as to show mercy to a woman.

Imagine if he wasn't strong enough, wouldn't he have already died from the combined attack of those five people?

"What? You!"

Upon hearing this, the Liu family patriarch was first enraged, then filled with terror.

Yes, if the other party wants to obtain the divine and demonic martial arts techniques from his family, they can just go directly to them.

Even if he were still alive at that time, let alone when he was already dead, what difference would it make? He would still have to obediently hand over the things.

Even the safety of the entire family rests on the other party's whim.

If Chen Fan is unhappy, or if the younger members of the family do something offensive, the Liu family might have to be expelled from the Yan Kingdom.

On the other side, the Bai family patriarch's back was also soaked with sweat without him noticing.

There is good news and bad news.

The good news is that the Bai family does not possess any god-level or demon-level martial arts.

The bad news is that he estimates Chen Fan won't believe it, and he himself wouldn't believe it either; he'll definitely have to turn the Bai family upside down before he can stop.

Damn the Elders' Council, why did they have to send me on this mission? Wouldn't it have been better to send another family?

Now he's finished, and even his family won't escape unscathed.

The people of Feng Kingdom on the other side finally realized that Chen Fan was determined to kill them and there was no possibility of letting them go. One by one, they went from begging for mercy to cursing and hurling insults.

Some people even criticize the elders' council.

In their view, the so-called Elders' Council, like the Song family before them, had made a solemn vow before setting out that everything was under control and that anyone who went against the Elders' Council would not have a good ending.

The results of it?

Isn't it just like the Song family, leading them into a fire pit?

Even more, a terrible idea popped into their minds.

The people who want to get rid of them are none other than the Elders' Council! Or rather, the Elders' Council is definitely involved!

The Song family, along with these few Yan people, have likely been considered a thorn in the side by the elders for a long time.

"You cunning Yan people, even as a ghost, I will not let you go!"

The last Maple Kingdom citizen let out a final roar, and then vanished into thin air.

Meanwhile, the Liu family and the Bai family patriarch were also on the verge of death.

The Liu family patriarch sighed, as if he had seen through everything, and said, "Young brother, it was karma that I killed you before, and you killed me. I have nothing to say about it. But before I die, young brother, could you grant me a request?"

Before Chen Fan could reply, he continued, "My request is simple: after I die, young brother, go to my Liu family and take that divine-level martial art. No problem, even I can't learn it."

Not to mention the rest of my Liu family, they're of no use staying with us anyway. I just hope you, young man, won't harm my descendants. They have nothing to do with this, okay?

"Can."

Chen Fan nodded.

Actually, he didn't intend to harm any other members of the Liu family.

Of course, if the Liu family members are ungrateful or want to seek revenge, he wouldn't mind doing so.

Thank you.

Upon hearing this, the Liu family patriarch showed a relieved expression.

In fact, he also knew that even if Chen Fan didn't take that god-level martial art, other families would still have designs on his Liu family in the future.

He sighed, withdrew his protective aura, and vanished into thin air the next moment.

Within the sword energy domain, only the Bai family patriarch remained.

"Do you have any last words?"

Chen Fan's gaze fell on him.

The Bai family patriarch hesitated for a moment, then pleaded, "Young brother, could you... spare my life? I'm willing to swear on my inner demons."

As the saying goes, it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.

It's embarrassing for now.

However, once the elders find out about this, they will be furious. Even if this kid is strong, he will surely die. After all, he is all alone. Can he possibly be an enemy of the entire Yan Kingdom's powerful families?

What do you think?

Chen Fan looked at him with amusement.

He would rather subdue a demonic beast than keep a person by his side.

The Bai family patriarch swallowed hard and could only say, "Young brother, my Bai family does not possess any divine or demonic martial arts. I swear to the heavens that I do not possess any. I hope that after I die, you will not cause trouble for my descendants."

"We'll see."

With a thought, Chen Fan summoned countless sword energies.

It directly annihilated the Bai family patriarch, who was still in his golden form.

Whether the Bai family possesses divine or demonic martial arts techniques will be revealed once you visit them.

At this moment, there was not a sound in the vast city of Jiangnan.

Those powerful figures hidden in the shadows didn't dare to even glance in this direction, fearing that Chen Fan might kill them here if he was displeased.

Do not doubt it, because the latter is someone who dares to kill even the Elders' Council and the Revival Society.

"Do you have any last words?"

Chen Fan withdrew his sword energy and looked at Song Tian and the others beside him.

The group lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

If we're talking about hatred, then of course it is hatred.

With the deaths of the Song family's patriarchs, the Song family's fate was sealed.

But they knew even more clearly that no amount of hatred would change anything.

The gap between the two sides is too large.

"Chen, Chen Fan."

Song Tian suddenly spoke, his eyes pleading, "Could you spare the lives of the rest of my Song family? This matter has nothing to do with them; it was all done by us and our ancestors. If you kill us, can this matter end here?"

Seeing that Chen Fan did not speak, he said urgently, "My Song family also has two divine and demonic level martial arts. You can take them too, even if it's just to leave one bloodline in my Song family."

Upon hearing this, the other members of the Song family were overcome with grief, and tears streamed down their faces like a burst dam.

It has always been the Song family who bullies others.

But now, the tables have turned...

"Let's see how they perform," Chen Fan said.

"Okay, okay, thank you, thank you."

Song Tian nodded repeatedly.

He knew that if Chen Fan intended to destroy the Song family, he wouldn't have said that.

"Chen Fan, you killed members of the Revival Society and Director Xu of the Elders' Council. They won't let you off the hook, nor will they let your Jiangnan Martial Arts Association members go unpunished. You'd better watch out."

Perhaps out of a pang of conscience, he offered a word of advice, and then slowly closed his eyes.
