Shua... Lu Fan put away the Twelve-Ranked World-Destroying Black Lotus and the God-Slaying Spear. With a thought, Lu Fan's clone emerged from the Biyou Palace. They exchanged a knowing glance, and the clone merged back into Lu Fan's body. A golden light erupted from Lu Fan as the clone integrated.
A moment later, Lu Fan appeared inside the Biyou Palace. Within the Biyou Palace, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons and numerous great demons were seizing the opportunity to recover their strength. Meanwhile, the First Qilin and Ancestral Dragon wore worried expressions, concerned about the safety of their kin.
Niangniang Yunxiao still occupied Li Jingjing's body and was also recovering her strength. Unable to reclaim her body, Li Jingjing had no choice but to continue using the body of the red-robed young general and cultivate alongside Zhan Tai Ruomei. The Jade Qilin also lay nearby.
"Niangniang Yunxiao, do you wish to regain your original power?" Lu Fan suddenly appeared beside Niangniang Yunxiao and sat down next to her.
Niangniang Yunxiao's eyes snapped open. She glanced at Lu Fan and asked, "Do you have a way?"
"How about I give you a powerful new body? And return this one to Jingjing," Lu Fan said with a smile.
"You have an immortal and indestructible body?" Niangniang Yunxiao asked, her eyes lighting up.
"This young master has connections, specializing in wholesale bodies of divine generals and demonic lords. If the quality isn't good, we offer exchanges and refunds. How about your master, Sect Master Tongtian's, body? If you want it, I can give it to you cheaply," Lu Fan said with a slight smile.
"???"
...
A short while later, Lu Fan reappeared before the First Qilin.
"Old fellow, with the heavens in chaos, you're so timid. Why not go back and inform your kin to find a safe place to take refuge?" Lu Fan said with a grin.
"I'd like to leave, but how can I?" the First Qilin asked, exasperated.
"Put on the skin of that young general, ride your great-great-grandson, and go back. I dare say no one will stop you," Lu Fan said, pointing at Li Jingjing and the Jade Qilin.
"Oh, and if you have nowhere to go, you can come to Penglai Immortal Island. Haha!" Lu Fan added.
"Kid! I want to return to the Dragon Clan too," Ancestral Dragon suddenly said from the side.
"Certainly! I'll find a way to let you leave," Lu Fan said with a smile.
Not long after, the First Qilin, wearing the red-robed young general's body and riding the Jade Qilin, quietly slipped away from Penglai Immortal Island. Niangniang Yunxiao became Sect Master Tongtian, and Li Jingjing finally returned to her own body. Ancestral Dragon also departed quietly.
"Master! Why did you let the First Qilin and Ancestral Dragon leave? You let them off too easily," Li Jingjing said indignantly, returning to Lu Fan after reclaiming her body.
"I divined that Heavenly Venerate Yuanshi's fury has nowhere to vent, and he might bring disaster upon the Dragon and Qilin clans. Therefore, I had them return to protect their clan's bloodlines. Besides, we can't just stay here forever; it's time to strike," Lu Fan chuckled.
"Strike? Master, there are tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers and hundreds of immortal generals outside. With just a few of us, relying on Penglai Immortal Island, we can only hold our ground. How can we fight our way out?" Li Jingjing asked urgently.
"Of course, I have a way! You all just wait and see!" Lu Fan smiled slightly and suddenly vanished from their sight.
Inside the Eight Views Palace of Lord Taishang, a hint of joy appeared on his face. He gently flicked his Taiyi whisk and murmured to himself, "Haha! Junior brother! I never expected your life essence to be there. No wonder you forbade anyone from setting foot there. However, your perpetually arrogant demeanor should be reined in. Hmph!"
...
In the mortal realm, in the Ice Melting Cave of the Extreme Cold Land, Lu Fan took out the World-Destroying Black Lotus and the God-Slaying Spear. Upon seeing the two innate supreme treasures, Liu Ruyan's eyes immediately lit up.
"Little Fan! You actually obtained these two supreme treasures!?"
"How about it? Can this power shake the entire Heavenly Realm? Release all your demon soldiers, and let's turn the Heavenly Court upside down together," Lu Fan said excitedly.
"Little Fan! The Demon Clan has no soldiers, nor anyone to lead them. If they are released, not only the heavens but also the mortal realm will face calamity. That's why I sent the Great Demon King into the Lich Tribulation Land," Liu Ruyan said, shaking her head slightly.
"It's alright. The Eight Views Palace of Lord Taishang has a passage into the Primordial Battlefield. I suspect he also has a passage into the Ancient Battlefield. At that time, as long as you don't restrict the Demon Clan's actions, I will have them all appear in the heavens," Lu Fan said with a slight smile.
"The Eight Views Palace of Lord Taishang is not easily entered. You must be careful," Liu Ruyan said, suddenly startled. Lord Taishang not only forged various rare treasures but was also proficient in formations. His territory was not a place one could enter and exit freely.
"Hahaha! I have my own ways!" Lu Fan laughed heartily, shua... he put away the God-Slaying Spear and the World-Destroying Black Lotus, and his figure moved, disappearing from the cave entrance.
Watching Lu Fan vanish, Ling'er, standing beside her, gasped with her mouth wide open, "Niangniang... are those truly the legendary God-Slaying Spear and the Twelve-Ranked World-Destroying Black Lotus?"
"Of course, they are! I didn't expect Little Fan to obtain these two treasures. With these two treasures, unless Hongjun appears, no one can harm him," Liu Ruyan said, taking a deep breath.
"Niangniang! This is good news!" Ling'er immediately said.
"But... these two treasures are extremely evil. The appearance of either one could potentially plunge the world into chaos for years! Most importantly, they both erode the human heart," Liu Ruyan said worriedly.
"Then... why didn't you stop him? No matter what, you can't let Young Master become an evil person!" Ling'er exclaimed upon hearing this.
"Perhaps... there is still another way! That is to find the Twelve-Ranked Pure World Green Lotus!" Liu Ruyan suddenly said again.
...
Lu Fan's figure quietly appeared at the entrance of the Eight Views Palace. He activated the Breath Concealment Art to suppress his aura and quietly slipped into the Eight Views Palace.
"Senior Brother! Outside Penglai Immortal Island, did something important happen that caused your clone to leave?" The voice of Heavenly Venerate Yuanshi suddenly came from the Laojun's residence. It was clearly a tone of demanding an explanation.
"Junior Brother! Senior brother sensed someone intruding into my Eight Views Palace, so I returned to investigate. However, I did not find the intruder," Lord Taishang said calmly.
"Heh heh! Don't rush, this young master will let you find me now." Lu Fan suddenly flashed a cunning smile, and with a flash, he entered the Eighth View of the Eight Views Palace, the Falling Star River!
"Who is it?" Lord Taishang let out a furious roar and rushed out.
"Senior Brother! What's wrong?" Heavenly Venerate Yuanshi also rushed out, asking in surprise.
"Hmph! That person is here again!" Lord Taishang frowned fiercely.
"Senior Brother! You're not trying to bluff, are you? Is there anyone in the immortal realm who can hide from our eyes?" Heavenly Venerate Yuanshi frowned immediately, as he simply did not believe it.
