Chapter 267 Dare to calculate the system, but don’t let it backfire on you!

Even though the old man's Lifespan was short, with only a few days left to live, it didn't mean he could face death calmly.

The connection between his Domain and Soul was forcibly severed by Li Xuanfeng, and his Physical Body was corroded into dust by the Chaotic Mist, causing him to feel the fear of death and beg for mercy.

"This King knows that you were actually forced into this, wanting to live a few more years since your Lifespan was nearing its end, which is why you attacked this King."

Li Xuanfeng looked at him indifferently.

"Thank you, Peerless King, for understanding!"

The old man almost cried tears of joy.

His Lifespan was nearing its end, and after three hundred years of secluded cultivation, he still couldn't break through his Bottleneck. He had originally come out of seclusion to try his luck at the Ancient Demon Palace, hoping to fortuitously obtain a treasure medicine.

He never expected to hear about a monstrous Prodigy named Li Xuanfeng appearing in the world, who, in less than two years, had covered a journey that took others hundreds or even thousands of years!

If he could uncover the secret behind him, he might be able to acquire his ability to rapidly improve his Realm.

For the old man, whose Lifespan was nearing its end, he was naturally extremely tempted.

However, despite being tempted, he was skeptical about Li Xuanfeng's story. He merely held a 'let's try' attitude and, based on his intuition, chose a spot to ambush Li Xuanfeng.

What was the result?

Even the Four Great Powers' combined ambush on Li Xuanfeng ended in failure, yet he succeeded!

Simply put, he chose the right ambush location, but he himself didn't possess the strength to ambush Li Xuanfeng.

Peerless King Li Xuanfeng was as powerful as the rumors claimed; with just two swift sword strikes, he cut down the Cultivator, who was infinitely close to the Emperor Realm Middle Stage, leaving only a remnant Soul.

In extreme fear, he could only beg for mercy, hoping Li Xuanfeng would spare his life.

He initially thought it was a futile effort. According to the rumors of Peerless King's unforgiving nature, he shouldn't have survived.

What was the result?

Begging for mercy actually worked!

Listening to Li Xuanfeng's tone, he had hope of survival.

Could it be that Li Xuanfeng was tired of killing and suddenly changed his nature?

Whatever the reason, at least he had hope of survival.

"Thank you, Peerless King, for understanding. I was indeed forced into this. My Lifespan was nearing its end, and I was desperately searching for a solution. I was momentarily deluded and attacked the Peerless King!"

The old man frantically bowed and knelt before Li Xuanfeng.

"It's human nature to seek a solution when one's Lifespan is nearing its end!"

Li Xuanfeng nodded.

The old man's face was filled with excitement.

"If you can't find a solution, it makes people increasingly anxious and irritable, and even their temper gets worse!"

Li Xuanfeng said.

The old man nodded frantically, feeling that Li Xuanfeng truly understood him.

"Not only does one's temper worsen, but their courage also grows, making them dare to do things they wouldn't normally."

Li Xuanfeng continued.

The old man continued to nod. What Li Xuanfeng said perfectly matched the psychological changes he experienced as his Lifespan neared its end.

"After gradually doing things they wouldn't normally dare to do, their behavior slowly becomes crazy. But if the Lifespan problem still cannot be resolved, their temperament will become increasingly irritable, and their hearts will become increasingly fearful, unwilling, and闷."

Li Xuanfeng looked at him.

The old man paused, but still nodded.

"Actually, this situation is very easy to solve. This King can help you!"

The old man almost cried tears of joy.

Until Li Xuanfeng raised his longsword.

"Pe… Peerless King?!"

The old man's entire Soul began to tremble.

"Once you're dead, you won't have these worries!"

Li Xuanfeng said indifferently.

"Don't kill me! Don't you want to know who is trying to scheme against you?"

"If you kill me, you won't know anything!"

The old man shouted in horror.

Swish!

Li Xuanfeng acted as if he hadn't heard, slashing down with his sword.

The old man found that he hadn't died, but his Soul had been greatly weakened.

Swish, swish, swish!

Li Xuanfeng struck several swords in succession, weakening the old man's Soul repeatedly until it was too weak to self-destruct.

"You!"

Only at this moment did he finally understand Li Xuanfeng's purpose – Soul searching!

In his current weakened Soul state, he could only be at Li Xuanfeng's mercy!

A large hand reached out, confirming the old man's guess.

"Li Xuanfeng, you won't die a good death!"

Feeling completely played, the old man couldn't help but curse in despair.

Buzz!

A vast power surged, and the old man felt his Soul being torn apart inch by inch, his consciousness rapidly fading away from him.

Scenes flashed before Li Xuanfeng's eyes like a revolving lantern. He filtered out the old man's useless memories and found the Cultivator who was skilled in the Dao of divination, as mentioned by the old man.

"God Diviner?"

Li Xuanfeng savored the title, then casually rubbed his hands together, and the old man's Soul completely vanished into thin air.

The Cultivator the old man mentioned, skilled in the Dao of divination, was known as the God Diviner. His cultivation was only at the Emperor Realm Early Stage, but his deduction abilities were excellent, and few in the entire Eastern Barren could compare to him.

This time, the Four Great Powers found him, paid a sufficient reward, and asked him to help deduce Li Xuanfeng's travel route, intending to ambush him with this information.

"Finding someone to interfere with my Dao of deduction and divination, then deducing my travel route?"

Li Xuanfeng pondered slightly.

Now, the outside world believed he was skilled in the Dao of deduction and divination, which explained why he could always avoid the ambushes of the Four Great Powers.

To deal with him, the Four Great Powers decided to invite the God Diviner to act.

"I can indeed seek good fortune and avoid disaster, but not through deduction and divination, but by cheating. How could such ordinary deduction and divination interfere with me!"

"Moreover, even if they correctly deduce the path I'm going to take and set up an ambush in advance, it won't be able to threaten me!"

Li Xuanfeng secretly thought.

He could avoid good fortune and disaster by observing the changes in his fate color through the System, thereby preemptively avoiding those who could threaten him.

Conversely, Li Xuanfeng couldn't avoid those who couldn't threaten him, because if they couldn't threaten him, the color of his fate wouldn't change.

Just like the old man he had just killed.

It was precisely because he knew through the System that there would be no danger for him to appear here that he showed himself.

Facts proved the System was very reliable.

The old man's strength posed no threat to Li Xuanfeng, who easily dealt with him, and the Domain he left behind ironically became a stepping stone for Li Xuanfeng.

This was also why, even when the Four Great Powers combined forces to ambush Li Xuanfeng, they failed, yet a Cultivator at the Emperor Realm Early Stage like him succeeded.

The System gave no danger warning!

Li Xuanfeng arrived.

Then the old man who dared to ambush him died.

"Let them calculate; their calculations will be in vain."

"Improving my strength is the priority."

The Chaotic Mist surged out, rapidly refining the old man's Middle Stage Domain.

In less than half a day, the Domain was completely refined.

Buzz!

The Chaotic Sword Domain's pressure was vast, and its range had already reached five hundred and ten thousand li.

In terms of Domain range alone, it was a genuine Emperor Realm Middle Stage Domain!

Compared to a month and a half ago, Li Xuanfeng's strength had made significant progress.

"With my current strength, I should be able to rival an Emperor Realm Late Stage Cultivator and easily kill a full-strength Emperor Realm Middle Stage Cultivator!"

Li Xuanfeng murmured.

"It's time to leave here."

"There's no need to continue wasting time with these few powers; my Opportunity should be at the Ancient Demon Palace!"

"It's a good time to see how well that God Diviner calculated. If he dares to deduce the System, he better not get himself killed by a backlash!"

After silently muttering to himself, Li Xuanfeng's figure vanished into the Void Realm.
