Chapter 542: Chapter 483: You Won’t Die if You Don’t Seek Death Part 2

"Huff! Huff!"

With a slash, Nolan Xuan’s large saber turned into a streak of white light that cut through the air, creating a terrifying blade wind.

The blade wind arrived before the saber itself.

The fierce blade wind swept toward Ye Fan!

As the blade wind howled, Ye Fan stood motionless like a steel spear, a stream of air miraculously formed around him, blocking the blade wind from coming any closer to his body.

"Whoosh—"

In a flash of lightning, the air around Ye Fan was split open, and the blade’s edge did not pause, chopping toward Ye Fan’s head.

There was no dodging, no shrinking back.

Ye Fan threw a punch!

"Smack! Smack! Smack!"

The air burst, and Ye Fan’s right fist, like a cannonball, roared toward the large saber slashing at him.

"Clang!"

Fist and saber collided, energy burst forth, sparking a flurry of sparks.

The terrifying recoil made Nolan Xuan’s tiger’s mouth go numb, nearly causing the large saber in his hand to slip away as his qi and blood churned uncontrollably, and he retreated uncontrollably, causing the ground under his feet to collapse and dust to fly.

All of this appeared slow but, in reality, happened within just a few seconds. Not only Nolan Qi’s classmates but even Nolan Qi, who was at the Postnatal Great Success realm, couldn’t clearly see the details of the exchange.

In fact, because of the flying dust from their exchange, they couldn’t even locate their figures.

What was the outcome?

Looking at the dust in the air, Nolan Qi and the others asked themselves.

"Snap—"

Finally, the last crisp sound was heard as Nolan Xuan managed to halt his retreating figure.

As for Ye Fan, he had only taken three steps back!

"How... how can he be so strong?"

After a single move, it was clear who was stronger. As Nolan Xuan stabilized his qi and blood, he was shocked to see a notch on his large saber and realized Ye Fan had only taken three steps back.

Although his large saber was not the ancestral treasure saber of the Nolan Family, it was still a low-level Magic Artifact, much tougher than ordinary steel sabers.

And now, Ye Fan had nicked it with a single punch!

What’s more critical is that he had just used the ’Water-cutting Saber Technique, Five Waves,’ which, although not his best killing move, was still his second most powerful technique. It didn’t harm Ye Fan, and instead, he was the one who ended up at a disadvantage.

Keep in mind that he was at the Innate Great Perfection realm!

And... Ye Fan was only at the Peak stage of Innate!

And this was without Ye Fan using any magic attack...

This outcome was simply unbelievable for Nolan Xuan!

"With the Black Iron Fist set and ’Qi Rushes to the Sky’ at the second level, I can now defeat ordinary Innate Great Perfection stage martial artists with my martial arts cultivation alone."

As Nolan Xuan was greatly shocked, Ye Fan muttered to himself internally.

Nolan Xuan’s earlier strike, although impressive, wasn’t fast, and Ye Fan could have avoided it entirely.

He didn’t dodge but chose to meet it head-on, merely to test his martial arts combat ability!

Nolan Xuan is not a match?

At that moment, Nolan Qi and the others saw where Ye Fan and Nolan Xuan were standing, capturing the expressions on both faces. They had a hunch about which of them was stronger and their faces showed deep concern.

"Whew..."

Nolan Xuan breathed deeply, stabilizing his qi and blood, and then, feigning composure, he looked at Ye Fan and said word by word, "Ye Fan, I admit that your strength is far beyond my expectations, but I just used the ordinary mid-grade martial technique ’Water-cutting Saber Technique,’ not our Nolan Family’s ancestral ’Soul Capturing Blade Technique.’ If you agree to let today’s matter rest, then our battle ends here; otherwise, I don’t mind letting you experience our Nolan Family’s ’Soul Capturing Blade Technique’!"

’Soul Capturing Blade Technique,’ a top-grade mid-grade martial technique, bordering on high-grade.

Each slash can affect the opponent’s consciousness, making it impossible for the opponent to concentrate during the fight.

The Nolan Family has established itself in the Huaxia Cultivation World, partly because of the ancestral treasure sword ’Soul-devouring Blade,’ and partly because of the ancestral saber technique ’Soul Capturing Blade Technique,’ which complement each other greatly.

By now, Nolan Xuan had mastered the third level of the ’Soul Capturing Blade Technique,’ achieving the first killing move of the technique – the ’Shadowless Blade.’

Despite this, Nolan Xuan was unsure he could kill Ye Fan with his ultimate move ’Shadowless Blade,’ otherwise, he wouldn’t have negotiated and compromised with Ye Fan feigning composure.

"The moment you chose to strike, you sealed your fate—next year’s today will be your death anniversary—you might as well use whatever techniques you have!"

Ye Fan was unafraid, with his strength, if he launched an attack with both magic and martial arts, he could contend with, or even ordinary Half-step Gang Qi realm masters.

And if it was a surprise assassination, he could even kill ordinary Half-step Gang Qi realm masters!

And Nolan Xuan was just a typical Innate Great Perfection martial artist.

If he were to go all out, he could instantly kill him!

"Swoosh—"

As he spoke, Nolan Xuan finally stabilized his qi and blood, reaching his peak state once more. Hearing Ye Fan’s words, he preemptively moved, leaping forward, saber in hand, rushing toward Ye Fan.

Ye Fan remained unmoved, planning to meet each move and experience the ’Soul Capturing Blade Technique.’

"Shadowless Blade!"

Knowing that Ye Fan’s strength was far superior to his own, Nolan Xuan didn’t hold back, and his first move was the killing move from the ’Soul Capturing Blade Technique.’

As the shout came, the saber swung!

The snow-white large saber cut swiftly downward.

The blade wind howled, mixed with Nolan Xuan’s furious shout, pouring into Ye Fan’s ears like a demonic sound, assaulting his consciousness.

"So that’s how it is."

Ye Fan’s heart was as firm as a rock, his body slippery like a mudfish as he flashed backward, dodging the blade while also discerning the essence of the "Soul Capturing Blade Technique."

The so-called soul capturing was when the practitioner of the "Soul Capturing Blade Technique" would shout in a special way to harness a spiritual attack and then integrate this spiritual attack into the blade wind, thus affecting the opponent’s consciousness, making it impossible for the opponent to fight at full strength and even causing them to experience a moment of trance, leading to their defeat!

In some sense, the "Soul Capturing Blade Technique" and the Qinghong Black Dragon Guards’ killing move "Shadowless Yin Demon Slash" had a curiously similar ingenuity. However, the latter combined a formation and fused it with the evil yin Qi between heaven and earth, making its power far surpass the "Soul Capturing Blade Technique" and ranking it among the strongest martial arts in the world.

Putting aside the influence containing spiritual attacks, the power of Nolan Xuan’s "Shadowless Blade" just now was still not as great as the previous "Water-cutting Saber Technique, Five Waves."

"Take another slash from me!"

Although his slash missed, Nolan Xuan subjectively thought that Ye Fan’s consciousness had been affected and he wouldn’t be able to take this next slash, so instead of retreating, he advanced, his momentum surged, and he struck with another slash.

"Whoosh!"

The sharp blade fiercely chopped down, once again slicing through the airflow over Ye Fan’s head.

"Trivial trick!"

Understanding the principle of the "Soul Capturing Blade Technique," Ye Fan snorted coldly, lifted his right foot, gently turned his body like a spiral, and skillfully dodged, making Nolan Xuan’s second slash miss again.

"Eat my blade!"

Immediately, without waiting for Nolan Xuan to retrieve his blade or change his move, Ye Fan’s right hand formed a blade and chopped towards Nolan Xuan’s wrist.

Nolan Xuan was shocked, too late to dodge, could only shake his wrist, and forcefully lifted the large blade in his hand to meet Ye Fan’s hand blade.

"Clang!"

Hand blade hitting real blade, Nolan Xuan, knowing he couldn’t withstand Ye Fan’s strength, cleverly chose to loosen his grip on the blade, allowing Ye Fan to knock it down.

Seizing this opportunity, he also transformed his hand into a blade, jabbing towards Ye Fan’s Dantian!

Ditching the blade for a defensive, hand blade attack...

This quick change in move was extortionately fast for Nolan Xuan, showing his cunning to the extreme, and he showcased his combat skills brilliantly.

Only—

Ye Fan was even faster!

"Swish!"

Ye Fan converted his hand blade into a grab, his right hand clutching Nolan Xuan’s wrist, preventing his hand blade from advancing any further.

"So fast!"

Nolan Xuan was startled, his right hand generated power, shook powerfully like a python turning over, immensely strong, and shook off Ye Fan’s right hand.

"Bang—"

Ye Fan pulled back his right hand, gathered his steps, and his right foot kicked at the back of Nolan Xuan’s departing blade.

"Whoosh!"

The blade, under force, suddenly sprang up, chopping upward at Nolan Xuan’s arm.

Nolan Xuan’s face changed wildly as he hastily pulled back his hand and swiftly retreated.

"Swoosh—"

Ye Fan waved his right hand, grabbed the blade, then with a shake of his wrist, the blade transformed into a streak of white light, rapidly shooting toward Nolan Xuan.

In the nick of time, Nolan Xuan leaned backward, making the blade whoosh over his head, narrowly escaping the calamity.

"Go down!"

Just then, Ye Fan, like a shadow, followed through, turning his hand into a palm, forcefully striking Nolan Xuan’s Dantian!

"Slap—"

With a slap, power erupted, directly shattering Nolan Xuan’s Dantian and power seed!

"Spurt—"

Nolan Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood mist, flung onto the ground like a fly by Ye Fan, his meridians and internal organs all shattered, effectively turning him into a cripple.

"No... don’t kill me!"

Everything happened so fast, so quick that Nolan Xuan had no time to prepare. The human instinct to survive made him immediately beg Ye Fan for mercy.

"Originally, if you had destroyed your Dantian yourself, I might have spared your life, but now it’s impossible!" Ye Fan said, his right foot suddenly lifting, stomping toward Nolan Xuan’s heart.

"No!!"

Nolan Xuan shrieked desperately, wanting to dodge but powerless to do so.

"Bang—"

Like a watermelon bursting, Nolan Xuan’s heart was crushed under Ye Fan’s foot, his internal organs shattered by the force, continuously spitting out three mouthfuls of blood, his head tilted, and his life completely extinguished.

"Gulp!"

Seeing the fight unfold like a scene from a movie, Nolan Qi’s classmates were completely shocked, continuously swallowing saliva, their bodies convulsing uncontrollably.

And Nolan Qi, as if under an immobilization spell, couldn’t move, looking at Ye Fan filled with terror.

"Go back and tell Nolan Mingde, if he dares retaliate against the Miao Family member, tomorrow I will surely blood-wash Nolan Manor!" Ye Fan looked emotionlessly at Nolan Qi, warning him for the second time.

"Thump—"

Without responding, Nolan Qi collapsed to the ground in fear.

"Ah... Ah..."

Coming out of their shock, Nolan Qi’s classmates screamed and scattered in all directions.

Ye Fan paid them no more heed, turned around, and found Zhang Dasheng, Elder Miao, and Miao Xiuling standing in front of him, staring at him blankly like statues.

Just staring motionlessly...
