Chapter 1144: Chapter 998: Wipe Out All Enemies

"Indeed, she was clever and decisive, with a resolute heart!"

Seeing Xin Hongyun commit suicide on the spot, Fang Xi nodded with approval, looking towards the Shu Mountain group, "If you were wise, you would choose to join this woman on her journey..."

"Demon!"

Mo Yizui shouted, "We, the disciples of Shu Mountain, would rather die than submit!"

"Very good!"

Fang Xi flicked the ’Life and Death Sword’ in his hand!

His understanding of the Law of Life and Death had already reached the ’Illusory Taoist Seed Embryo’ realm. This Life and Death Sword, created within the cycle of reincarnation and transforming life and death into Yin-Yang, governed time and space, truly possessing infinite might, serving as the core of the Small Three Mysterious Sword Array.

At that moment, a clear and melodious sword cry rang out!

Under the envelopment of the Law of Life and Death, Mo Yizui perished on the spot, his path extinguished!

It wasn’t just him. Yu Ying, Bu Dengyun, Liu Pinting, and several Shu Mountain Elders with similar levels of cultivation and little presence, all had their Origin Souls dissipated, their True Spirits cast into the cycle of reincarnation!

What’s more, their True Spirits were also damaged by the Reincarnation Rule secretly embedded in Fang Xi’s ’Life and Death Flying Sword’.

They would likely have to cycle through insect beasts for a hundred lifetimes, then animals for another hundred before they could have the slightest chance of being human again.

Even if they were reborn as humans, they would likely be utterly foolish, without any talent or foundation for cultivation to speak of, grateful enough if they had the intelligence of an average person—eight out of ten might be born with disabilities or severe cognitive deficits!

In comparison, Xin Hongyun’s choice was smarter.

Although equally dead, after probably being an animal for ten lifetimes, she could have the chance to be human again.

Moreover... animals like pigs, cows, sheep, horses, chickens, and dogs often have brief lifespans. Several years would pass and one lifetime would be over. As long as the cycle is fast enough, sins could be quickly erased.

"Demon!"

Nun Jueqing’s eyes nearly split with rage, and a ball of clear light emerged behind her head. It was shockingly her Primordial Spirit, controlling a sword, slashing towards Fang Xi!

Fang Xi sneered, the Taiyi Invisible Sword and Si Chen Sword on his left and right respectively, trapping the flying sword of the Origin Soul.

The Life and Death Sword flew out, immediately beheading the old nun.

Not only beheaded, but he also deliberately imprinted it with a bit more of the Reincarnation Rule, ensuring the old nun would certainly receive ’special treatment’ from the Reincarnation Disk.

"Amitabha Buddha!"

Monk Di Xin gave a wry smile, watching his flying sword break and die pierced through the heart by three flying swords.

Ling Chan Tongzi was surrounded by a stern golden light.

As a Celestial Immortal, possessing the Pure Jun Sword and the Innate One Qi Tai Chi Diagram, he watched Fang Xi kill off the Shu Mountain’s elite without making a move.

Fang Xi, surrounded by the Taiyi Formless, Si Chen, and Life and Death flying swords, silently watched Ling Chan Tongzi.

"So, Sir, have you killed enough?"

Ling Chan Tongzi asked.

For a moment, all cultivators present were stunned, looking at the head of Shu Mountain as if he had gone mad or encountered some kind of problem.

Only figures such as Elder Divine Wood and Yun Shanshan knew of Ling Chan Tongzi’s real intentions.

"Not enough... As long as Sir is with Shu Mountain, even if these Elders and disciples reincarnate through hundreds of lifetimes, there’s still the possibility to be summoned back to continue on the path of immortality."

Fang Xi shook his head, "What’s more... if the tiger returns to the mountain, Sir might restart the Righteous and Evil Sword Fight, seize the fortune of other sects, and then ascend to the Heavenly World... Wouldn’t that be too lenient for Sir?"

"It seems, Sir does not wish to let me go. In fact, should Sir allow me to leave, I could swear an oath, Shu Mountain will henceforth never be an enemy to Sir..."

Ling Chan Tongzi made his final effort.

Fang Xi still shook his head upon hearing this.

Ling Chan Tongzi sighed, a sigh full of worldly weariness that seemed full of the helplessness of the world.

Then, the ’Biyi Qi Nine Palaces Xumi Array’ surged towards the sky.

This grand Shu Mountain Sect Array, containing changes such as Yin-Yang, movement and stillness, reality and illusion, light and darkness, was a manifestation of the utmost achievement of the supreme Taiqing Taoist methods.

Elder Divine Wood and Yun Shanshan saw the golden light reveal layer upon layer of doorways, transforming into nine splendid palaces.

In the midst of golden light, worlds were born and extinguished. They couldn’t help but feel the insignificance of their own existence, like a speck of dust, trembling in their hearts.

This Array could almost be regarded as the number one Immortal Array in the mortal world!

"Shu Mountain Ling Chan, please enlighten me, Sir."

Ling Chan Tongzi held the Pure Jun Sword, surrounded by a layer of Taiqing celestial light.

His Celestial Primordial Spirit was clear and transparent, his magic power boundless and infinite, truly a premier accomplishment in this world.

Propelling the ’Biyi Qi Nine Palaces Xumi Array’ with his Xuan Du Primordial Spirit, a layer of golden light flickered beneath his feet. The Pure Jun Sword, blessed by the ’Taiqing Celestial Light,’ suddenly roared, turning into a hundred-zhang golden dragon, a magnificent sword that turned the heavens and earth into a field of blazing gold!

"This head of Shu Mountain has both his cultivation and swordsmanship surpassing Ancestor Lie Huo!"

"Perhaps he is already the number one person in the world!"

Duanmu Long and several Individual Immortals on the scene sighed deeply in admiration upon seeing this scene.

"Taiqing celestial methods, Shu Mountain swordsmanship?"

Fang Xi’s eyes shone brightly, shouting, "Small Three Mysterious Sword Array, come forth!"

He held the Life and Death Flying Sword, the Life and Death Taoist Seed Embryo assimilated into the flying sword.

This flying sword instantly flew out, the sword light dividing, resembling a Tai Chi Diagram.

The ’Taiyi Invisible Sword’ traveled through the void, the ’Si Chen Sword’ governed time, one Yin and one Yang, one moving and one still, one life and one death...

Sure enough, with the Life and Death Flying Sword at the core, governing time and space, the two poles revolved unceasingly, creating an endless cycle of life!

Infinite sword light descended, transforming into a great array that enclosed mysteries of the void, time, life and death, and reincarnation.

It was the ’Small Three Mysterious Sword Array’ that Fang Xi had unleashed, based on the ’Eight Gates Sword Array,’ with his foundation as an Immortal Array Master, the core being three celestial swords from Immortals, paired with a profound understanding of the Rules.

This Sword Array’s power was immense; the infinite sword light was like a vast galaxy, forcibly breaking through the defenses of the nine golden palaces!

"What kind of Sword Array is this?"

"We Swordsmen have never dreamt of witnessing such an Array in our lifetimes, truly to die without regrets!"

The Individual Swordsmen who would be grateful for owning a single Flying Sword in their lifetime had never seen such a powerful Array, paired with many Immortal Swords. They were truly dazzled, almost unaware of their own whereabouts.

As two Immortal Arrays collided, countless miniature worlds were born and then extinguished by streaks of sword light.

Elder Divine Wood hurriedly called for Duanmu Long and put all their efforts into activating the Divine Wood Island’s Array, but still felt the entire island was shaking and on the verge of crumbling to dust at any moment!

The cultivators on the island were about to become resentful spirits!

Even so, as he watched the two battling with their swords, he couldn’t find the words to beg them to stop.

Because Elder Divine Wood knew, this was a clash of the Tao!

No end until death!

Whoosh, whoosh!

In the void, two streaks of sword light constantly changed, fiercely dueling for countless rounds.

"What a formidable Ling Chan Tongzi," Fang Xi exclaimed, this Expressionless Child of the Shu Mountain Sect was indeed an accomplished senior cultivator, reborn over many lifetimes, and had finally attained the Heavenly Immortal Fruition in this life!

His swordsmanship was well-rounded and extremely sophisticated, far surpassing the senior members of Shu Mountain.

Moreover, he practiced the town’s mystical methods to an extremely high level.

Within his crystal clear Taiqing celestial light, several Tushita True Decrees shone brightly with purple light, indicating his level of spiritual practice was probably only a step away from the Old Ancestor of Shu Mountain who had ascended!

As long as he obtained the Purple Green Immortal Seal, he would surely be able to refine the ’Taiqing Primordial Spirit’ and achieve the status of a Gold Immortal.

Gold Immortals are immortal and within their Origin Souls lays a trace of indestructible golden nature!

If one achieves such a state, even if endless karma descends upon the heavens and earth, they can still suppress their own fortune by their Taoist Cultivation, without fear of any dip in fortune!

The more Fang Xi saw this, the more he knew he could not let this man go.

’After this battle, many gazes from the Heavenly World have turned their attention here...’

’It’s even possible that Golden Immortals, Bodhisattvas, or even Prime Taoist Masters have reincarnated specially to study and target me... becoming my calamity!’

’Enemies’ wings, if I can clip one, I will.’

Fang Xi’s ’Five Elements Primordial Spirit’ emerged, containing ’Mixed Origin Immortal Talismans,’ which suddenly merged with the three Flying Swords, transforming into a heaven-piercing and earth-shattering Five Colored Glows, and fiercely collided with Ling Chan Tongzi!

At this moment, as the two mighty arrays entangled, they both experienced a moment of failure!

In this split second, Fang Xi’s Five Elements Primordial Spirit already knocked away the Pure Jun sword, shattered the layer of Taiqing celestial light, and struck the Xuan Du Origin Soul.

The Five Colored Glows transformed into five colors—black, white, red, gold, and green—piercing through the Xuan Du Origin Soul!

"Sir, such a ruthless and decisive nature!"

Ling Chan Tongzi, blood flowing from his mouth and nose, offered a pained smile: "I have lost..."

In reality, both were evenly matched most of the time, but his loss was due to a slight reservation for his own side. He could not reach Fang Xi’s level of direct confrontation, with Origin Soul out for a desperate fight!

For cultivators of the mysterious sect’s orthodox school, the Origin Soul is the foundation of proving the Tao, which must be guarded extremely carefully, with no harm tolerated, not even to the slightest extent.

However, for other path cultivators, wracking their brains to refine the Origin Soul, enhancing its power for magical combat, is mainstream!

Furthermore... Fang Xi is famously fearless of death.

After all, he was merely an externalization.

Even if this Five Elements Primordial Spirit and Ling Chan Tongzi perish together, it would still be to his great advantage!

After all, he could reform at any time and come back from turning the calamity around!

When the strengths of both sides are not much different, and one side can keep coming back indefinitely, it’s obviously like cheating!

Now that Ling Chan Tongzi’s Origin Soul has been destroyed, his life is hanging by a thread.

"A dream of ascending with a single sword over ten lifetimes, earning the infamy across the land, days squandered amid the clouded seas, but when the phoenix flies, it shall return!"

Singing his way, Ling Chan Tongzi advanced with each step, and with each step, a layer of Taiqing celestial light dispersed from him.

After nine steps, his Xuan Du Origin Soul disintegrated completely, and a sliver of his True Spirit reincarnated, leaving behind only a sword and a diagram suspended midair, wailing audibly.

Seeing this, Fang Xi fell silent.

Even though he had cultivated the Reincarnation Rule to the point of embodying the rule itself, he could only grievously injure the True Spirit, but it was difficult to utterly destroy it.

To completely destroy the True Spirits of these people from the Shu Mountain Sect so that not only are their physical and spiritual forms annihilated but they also have no chance of reincarnation... only a Prime Taoist Master’s realm might suffice. Additionally, one must center on the Reincarnation Rule to merge the Taoist Species, achieving Lord Reincarnation status!

"Mr. Fang..."

Seeing this scene, Elder Divine Wood didn’t know what to say anymore.

The many cultivators present fell utterly silent.

The Divine Master Great Wild, in particular, formed a magic spell, secretly using a treasure, and disappeared without a trace.

Fang Xi sneered and sent out the Taiyi Formless Sword piercing through the void, striking with a single blow.

A scream rang out from a distance!
