Lin Fan is dead?

Chapter 464: Is Lin Fan Dead?

“Heaven and Earth are irreversible, and the Great Dao cannot be defied. The ancient sages long ago reached a conclusion: nothing can be changed, otherwise, severe suppression will follow!”

“By acting so Heaven-Defying, he is confronting the entire Great Universe, and is destined to face such tribulations, destined to be struck down!”

“Heh, it’s better if this kid dies, to avoid another Prodigy appearing, harming the Nine Heavens, and disturbing everyone’s peace.”

Everyone was discussing, their expressions varied; some sneered, some gloated, and some sighed.

Especially the Changsheng Dao Lineages like the Wang family and Jin family, they did not want to see another Holy Emperor rise, as that would pose too great a threat to them.

Now, seeing the Innate Dao Map, which meant certain death, suppress him, they could finally relax and reveal meaningful expressions.

“Clang!”

At this moment, Lin Fan did not retreat; there was only battle!

He opened his mouth and spat out a stream of clear light, which was the power emanating from the celestial seed within his body, transforming into a sword that slashed towards the ten thousand paths tree, causing sparks to fly.

People could clearly see the Void Realm trembling like a torn cloth, shattering into countless large cracks, with chaotic light surging.

However, that magnificent Dao Map was not affected; instead, it descended firmly, causing the ground around Lin Fan to crack.

This was an invisible, mighty force, like the azure sky falling, crushing all obstacles and obliterating any tangible substance.

Even Lin Fan’s Physical Body, as powerful as it was, was creaking and groaning, golden blood oozing from his flesh, staining his body red.

“Senior Meng, is there any way to help the Little Holy Emperor overcome this?” a middle-aged man asked anxiously, his voice hurried.

This person was a renowned figure from the Holy Emperor Palace, a great Cultivator of the Dunyijing, and he would also serve as an Elder at Celestial God Academy.

“This is his own tribulation. If I rashly intervene, it might trigger an even greater Heavenly Punishment,” Meng Tianzheng frowned.

However, he wasn't particularly worried, believing Lin Fan could find a way to overcome it himself, after all, it wasn't the first time…

“ten thousand paths tree, since you bear the rules of Heaven and Earth, this Innate Dao Map must be a great tonic for you!”

A flash of light appeared in Lin Fan’s hand, revealing a dazzling small tree, and then with a whoosh, it rapidly expanded.

In an instant, a tree laden with tens of thousands of fruits became incredibly massive, towering into the clouds, with lush branches and leaves.

“ten thousand paths tree?!” Someone in the distance exclaimed, their eyes burning.

“The legend is true; there really is such a flawless celestial seed as the ten thousand paths tree in the world, comparable to the saplings of the World Tree and the primordial seeds of the Universe!”

A group of people’s mouths twitched as they stared at the ancient tree, shouting out in great shock, their faces filled with awe.

Such a tree could be said to be priceless, a natural Dao carrier, condensing the Laws of all heavens, unimaginable!

If one were to obtain it and transplant it into their Dao lineage, it could revitalize a great sect, a great clan, and nothing could be exchanged for it.

At that moment, the ten thousand paths tree glowed, suspended before Lin Fan, its leaves ancient, emanating Chaos Qi, hazy and mysterious.

One could see that it bore ten thousand fruits, each of a different color, yet accompanied by the Qi of the Great Dao.

“Whoosh…”

In an instant, the entire great tree trembled, actually meeting the ten thousand paths tree, absorbing the power of the Great Dao descending from it.

“What is he doing?!” Someone questioned, confused.

“Incredible, to think of such a method to contend with the will of Heaven. Undoubtedly, for a tree born embodying ten thousand Daos, the ten thousand paths tree is the best nourishment.”

An old monster couldn't help but praise.

The world was even more surprised that such a treasure of Heaven and Earth as the ten thousand paths tree would fall into Lin Fan's hands, wishing they could immediately claim it for themselves.

Unfortunately, Lin Fan was not a Loose Cultivator; he was backed by the Holy Emperor Palace, and with Meng Tianzheng present, no one dared to snatch it.

Furthermore, although the power of the Innate Dao Map was weakened, it was not something anyone could breach or withstand.

Coincidentally, the ten thousand paths tree was also at the center of the Heavenly Punishment; whoever dared to enter would surely provoke the Heavens and suffer the calamity alongside it.

At this moment, even if some people harbored ill intentions and were swayed by greed, they could only suppress their thoughts.

“Pfft!”

Although Lin Fan had unleashed the ten thousand paths tree, weakening the power of the Great Dao, the Heavenly Punishment, far exceeding his Realm, was still something he could not resist, and he spat out fresh blood.

But in the eyes of outsiders, being able to persist until now was already very impressive; any other Cultivator would have long been reduced to a pulp, turned to ashes.

However, Lin Fan refused to yield, glaring furiously at the high heavens. What he wanted was to break the ten thousand Daos, to contend with this world, and to survive!

“Boom!”

A figure materialized, another version of him, seated high in the Nine Heavens, surrounded by Immortal Qi, looking down upon the world like an Immortal King.

This was a phenomenon, an Immortal King descending upon the Nine Heavens, wielding immense power, charging upward, continuously forming seals, aiming to tear apart the ten thousand paths tree.

At the same time, one door after another opened within Lin Fan's body, releasing wisps of clear light, bestowing upon him infinite power to contend against the ten thousand Daos of Heaven and Earth.

For a moment, everyone was startled and shocked by such methods and such perseverance.

“Defying the Heavens, you shall be executed!”

Suddenly, a cold voice rang out, devoid of any emotion, like a decree, condemning someone.

“Not good, the Heavens are enraged, the Great Universe is emitting killing intent, intending to eradicate those who do not abide by the rules of Heaven and Earth!”

Many people screamed, and although it wasn't directed at them, they still felt their hair stand on end, trembling all over.

“Clang!”

The next moment, a beam of Immortal light, or more accurately, a dazzlingly bright blade light, cleaved down from the sky.

“Oh my God, that’s a strike from the will of Heaven! It seems the Heavens are determined to destroy this young man, giving him no chance to survive!”

Everyone’s eyes widened, filled with fear, and even some old monsters were shocked, unable to believe it.

They couldn't understand what this young man had done to offend the Heavens so greatly that it would descend its strongest destructive attack.

“Ah…”

Lin Fan screamed, in excruciating pain, feeling as if he was about to collapse. Not only his Physical Body but even his Primordial Spirit felt like it was being sliced apart.

As for the phenomenon, that Immortal King had long since dissipated in the blade light, completely replaced by him enduring the brunt of it.

This scene was simply suffocating and gruesome.

“Little Holy Emperor!” The Holy Emperor Palace Senior shouted, extremely anxious.

“Bang!”

After enduring unimaginable Heavenly might, Lin Fan finally exploded, his form shattering, blood splattering, causing people to be horrified.

At this moment, even Meng Tianzheng’s expression changed, and he couldn't help but worry, wondering if he had truly met with disaster.

“Did he finally perish?” Someone sighed.

Although he fought a difficult and unyielding battle, the young man's figure had vanished, leaving behind only ashes and a mist of blood.

In the sky, the Innate Dao Map lingered for a while, and feeling no signs of life, it gradually dissipated and blurred.

Because if it didn't leave, it would likely be completely absorbed by the ten thousand paths tree, utterly transforming into its growth nourishment.

For a time, the Heavenly Punishment disappeared, and peace returned to the area.

“Heh, what strongest successor, unrivalled among his peers? Those who dare to defy Heaven always meet this end. He’s surely dead now, isn’t he…?”

The Wang family, Jin family, Feng family, and others breathed a sigh of relief, all sneering in secret, their mouths curving upward in triumph.

However, they still pretended to be particularly regretful on the surface.

“What a pity, such a young man of astonishing talent, who should have created new glories and inherited his father’s style… Heaven envies talent, alas!”

“If he could come back to life, my Wang family would definitely offer strong support, allowing him to examine my clan’s Turbulence Suppression Art, to contribute to the Nine Heavens!”

“My Jin family too…”

Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor Palace Senior glared, cursing these people under his breath for being truly despicable and utterly hypocritical.

This was not regret or sorrow; it was clearly a desire for him to die.

“Eh? Look, what’s that?!”
