"To try and trick me, you're not capable enough!" the Gu family Saint sneered, showing no regard in his words as he charged directly towards Lu Fan.
He was a Saint, a true and genuine existence. What could Lu Fan's little tricks do to fool him? Though the Shenhuang Ding was powerful, it was impossible for it to contend against a Saint.
However, the moment he approached, the Shenhuang Ding controlled by Lu Fan instantly unleashed an unparalleled aura that surged towards him. Moreover, the deterrent power of this Shenhuang Ding was even more formidable than the Saint's aura.
Upon seeing this, the Gu family Saint's expression immediately turned grim and uncertain. He could never have imagined that the methods Lu Fan displayed could reach this level. With the Shenhuang Ding, he could even threaten him.
"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
The Gu family Saint retreated continuously, his eyes filled with horror. He could never have imagined that Lu Fan could injure him. Just moments ago, Lu Fan had wounded him with the aura of the Shenhuang Ding, a humiliation he could not endure.
"Nothing is impossible!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes. "I told you earlier that this Shenhuang Ding can even kill Saints. You must know that I wasn't lying to you!"
The Gu family Saint's face was ashen. He was already severely injured, with one arm being directly severed by a divine radiance from the Shenhuang Ding. Having roamed the Taiyan Dynasty for so many years, he had never suffered such a loss.
"If you don't leave, I will truly kill you!" Lu Fan said coldly. "Don't think that just because you are a Saint, I won't dare to act. Don't forget that several of your Gu family members have already died by my hand!"
"How can I, a dignified Saint, be threatened by you!" the Gu family Saint sneered. "Even if I die today, I will never compromise with you!"
"Since that's the case, then I won't hold back!"
Lu Fan soared into the sky, his aura reaching its peak. At the same time, his gaze turned sharp. He wanted to see how far the might of the Shenhuang Ding could reach, and whether it could truly help him kill a Saint.
If it had such miraculous efficacy, he would not let the Gu family Saint off easily.
At that very instant, the might of the Shenhuang Ding continuously emanated, its aura even pervading the entire Taiyan Dynasty, causing many powerful individuals to observe, wondering what had happened.
"Such a powerful aura!"
The Gu family Saint was filled with shock. He could never have imagined that the might of the Shenhuang Ding would be so terrifying. Perhaps even a Saint would be insignificant before this Shenhuang Ding.
"The aura of the Shenhuang Ding!"
Liuli frowned. "Could it be that Lu Fan has engaged in a battle with the Gu family Saint? Otherwise, why would there be such a powerful aura?"
"How can he be a match for a Saint by himself!"
Bi Qing frowned slightly. "You all return to Tongtian Academy first. I will go and see what's happening."
"If you're going, we're all going!"
Liuli stated directly. "We all came out together, so naturally, we must go together!"
"That's right, we will never cling to life for fear of death!" Shen Yehong nodded. "If something happens to Lu Fan, how can we live with ourselves!"
Bi Qing was slightly taken aback, then nodded. "Since that's the case, then everyone go together!"
Meanwhile, at this very moment, the deterrent power of the Shenhuang Ding controlled by Lu Fan grew stronger, even extending into the imperial city.
Within the imperial city, the people felt an inexplicable unease, wondering what had happened to cause such a terrifying aura. They had never felt such divine power before.
Lu Fan, controlling the Shenhuang Ding, also felt a wave of paleness. Although he now possessed half-saint combat strength, it was still extremely strenuous for him to fully control the Shenhuang Ding. He could even feel the Shenhuang Ding continuously absorbing his spiritual power. If this continued, his life would be in danger.
However, at this moment, Lu Fan was utterly incapable of controlling the Shenhuang Ding, nor could he withdraw its aura, leaving him in a highly passive state.
The Gu family Saint suddenly rose, attempting to forcibly resist the divine radiance of the Shenhuang Ding. Unfortunately, he was instantly killed by a divine radiance from the Shenhuang Ding, without any pause.
Seeing this scene before him, Lu Fan felt a sense of panic. Now that the Gu family Saint was dead, he still couldn't control the Shenhuang Ding. If this continued, he might explode.
"Kid, you have to hold on!"
The voice of the ancient Hongmeng old man echoed. "This Shenhuang Ding is immensely powerful, an ancient divine weapon. It is now gradually awakening. If you can control it, you will become its master. If you cannot control it, you may be annihilated by its divine radiance!"
"The Shenhuang Ding's aura is so formidable, how can I withstand it alone!"
Lu Fan's face was grim. "Old man, hurry up and think of a solution! If this continues, I will surely explode!"
"This Shenhuang Ding has been with you for many years, it should not harm you!" the ancient Hongmeng old man said helplessly. He also had no solution. For such an ancient divine weapon, if it were to fully awaken, it would shake not only the entire Taiyan Plaza but the entire Eastern Domain.
At this very moment, across the Eastern Domain, various Holy Lands were observing, wondering what had happened to cause the entire Eastern Domain to tremble. It was likely a divine weapon appearing, otherwise, there wouldn't be such divine power.
Innumerable powerful individuals rushed out, their hearts filled with greed. They knew very well what kind of existence a divine weapon was. If one could obtain a divine weapon, they could even establish a great Holy Land.
And in this land of the Eastern Domain, the majesty of the Holy Lands was inviolable. Whether it was a dynasty or Tongtian Academy, they were merely a wisp of morning mist before a Holy Land.
Now, supreme experts of the Holy Lands were dispatched, all in search of this divine weapon.
At the same time, Bi Qing and the others arrived before Lu Fan. Seeing Lu Fan struggling to support the Shenhuang Ding, they quickly said, "Junior Brother Lu Fan, why don't you put away this Shenhuang Ding?"
"The Shenhuang Ding is immensely powerful, even I cannot control it!" Lu Fan shook his head. "You all hurry and leave, do not approach!"
"But how can the power of this Shenhuang Ding be stopped?" Shen Yehong asked anxiously. He did not want anything to happen to Lu Fan.
"The Shenhuang Ding contains divine power, it cannot be moved lightly,"
Lu Fan said seriously. "You all leave quickly, I have my own ways of dealing with this matter!"
Bi Qing and the others frowned but had no intention of leaving. Since Lu Fan had left the academy with them, how could they abandon him.
Meanwhile, within the imperial city of the Taiyan Dynasty, various experts reported: "Your Majesty, many powerful individuals from the Eastern Domain have infiltrated the Taiyan Dynasty, which may be detrimental to the dynasty!"
"This matter is beyond the dynasty's control!" the Taiyan Emperor frowned slightly.
