Return to the Immortal Battlefield

Chapter 545: Re-entering the Immortal Battlefield

Yuan Qing's death caused a huge sensation. A great expert from Boundless Heaven died so ignominiously. It truly was Karma!

However, more people knew that Yuan Qing was not the mastermind, but merely an "executioner" manipulated by others.

Rumor has it that the true force behind suppressing Shi Hao for ten years and wanting him dead was the Feng Clan, an ancient Chang Sheng Family.

"Now there's a good show to watch. Since Shi Hao has such a big brother, he might stand up for him and hold the Feng Clan accountable."

"Not necessarily. Knowing is one thing, and rumors are another. After all, Yuan Qing was the one who acted; the Feng Clan seemingly wasn't involved."

Everyone discussed animatedly.

Undoubtedly, Yuan Qing became a scapegoat. The Feng Clan, operating behind the scenes, could deny everything and shift the blame.

Shi Hao remained silent, but he was already planning how to kill Feng Xingtian, preparing to retaliate against that clan.

"Little brother, your head ornament is quite nice. A golden collar, very unique," Lin Fan noted.

Shi Hao: "…"

Awkward, so awkward!

This was no collar, but the Wang Family's Magical Artifact—the Adamant Girdle, specifically used to tame powerful battle servants.

"Wang Xi, aren't you going to come and unlock it? Do you want me to do it myself?" Lin Fan glanced at Wang Xi, his tone brooking no refusal.

In fact, Wang Xi had sensed it immediately when she was selecting followers earlier and had intended to approach and investigate, but Lin Fan's appearance interrupted her.

"Adamant Girdle!"

Wang Xi was startled, her beautiful eyes shimmering with astonishing brilliance. She instantly understood what the previous anomaly was about.

At this moment, under Lin Fan's gaze, she hesitated slightly, then reluctantly walked forward and helped Shi Hao remove the Adamant Girdle.

"Fairy, thanks!" Freed from the restraint, Shi Hao exclaimed excitedly.

Wang Xi said nothing. Although she was unwilling in her heart, compared to that, she didn't want to be associated with that scoundrel in any way.

Because she had witnessed Lin Fan's terrifying nature, and the psychological shadow still lingered, she didn't want to experience it again.

Even though this was Celestial God Academy, where Chaos was forbidden, Wang Xi still felt uneasy and only wanted to stay away from him.

"Brother Lin Fan, what other immoral things have you done? This Fairy seems very afraid of you?" Shi Hao muttered.

"You're just a kid. Don't meddle in adult affairs. Go into your Celestial God Academy," Lin Fan kicked him into the mountain gate.

With his Face, Shi Hao naturally didn't have to go through twists and turns to join Celestial God Academy, unlike in the original story.

Not far away, Princess Yao Yue was pensive, enveloped by moonlight, her skin like warm ivory. Then she smiled sweetly.

At that time, few knew about that incident, but the Xu Family, the Wang Family's mortal enemy, knew something and paid attention.

"Little Saint Emperor, I have some Cultivation questions. I wonder if you could offer some guidance," Princess Yao Yue's voice was ethereal.

As she spoke, her large eyes glanced at Wang Xi, her bright eyes and white teeth, astonishingly beautiful, revealing a hint of playfulness.

Wang Xi's expression tightened, a faint chill on her peerless Face, her eyes deep, a flash of killing intent passing through them.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a bit cold. Many people showed strange expressions. Had the two bright pearls of the Chang Sheng Family begun to compete?

"Little Saint Emperor is truly a Heavenly God, causing two Fairies to contend for his favor," someone said enviously.

Indeed, in the eyes of outsiders, that was how it appeared. Both the Young Miss of the Wang Family and the Princess of the Xu Family were interested in Lin Fan.

"Next time. I have something else to do and need to go to a certain place. We can arrange to travel together another time, younger sister Yao Yue," Lin Fan shook his head.

"That's truly a pity…" Princess Yao Yue smiled faintly, her beauty unparalleled.

Then, Lin Fan gave her a few small items. This girl was quite interesting; her Yin and Yang skills were extremely high… The stars shifted, and a silver metal warplane sped through hundreds of star systems, arriving at the other end of the Universe.

"Immortal Battlefield. Last time, due to the emergence of the Immortal Cave and my insufficient strength, I missed some Opportunities," Lin Fan muttered to himself.

He sat in the cabin, his eyes sparkling, gazing at an island that appeared ahead—or, more accurately, a continent.

However, it hung in the Universe, and from a distance, compared to the vast sea of stars and the endless cosmos, it looked like an island.

Moreover, the closer they got, the more surging the field around the island became, with a repulsive force.

"If the Immortal Academy hadn't led the way along a specific route a few years ago, I really might not have been able to reach it."

At his current Realm, Lin Fan naturally saw much more than before; it was incomparable. He immediately recognized that this island far exceeded his imagination.

Of course, with a Supreme-grade warplane, a mere field was nothing. It was directly broken through, and they soon approached their destination.

This time, his target was a peculiar Immortal Cave, to obtain a peerless Divine Ability from within—the World-Destroying Fist!

Therefore, Lin Fan didn't waste time and headed directly for that place.

Soon after, he arrived but didn't dare to approach directly, observing from afar.

"Indeed, that old man who lost his Primordial Spirit and only retained his instincts is still guarding this place," Lin Fan thought with alarm.

As his Dao Cultivation grew, he discovered a shocking secret: the thin old man was actually a Puppet refined by someone.

This was astonishing. An Immortal Dao figure turned into an unconscious Puppet, a gate-keeping tool. Who could have done this?

For a moment, Lin Fan felt it was far from simple. This place had a great origin, probably beyond imagination!

Last time, he and Lan Xian were able to enter the Chaos Ancient Cave by accident, or one could say, they were forced.

If it weren't for the Ancient Cauldron from Stone Village, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Even if they weren't killed by the Immortal Dao Puppet, they would have been trapped to death within!

Fortunately, this time Lin Fan was fully prepared and brought an Immortal Artifact.

"Boom!"

The three-legged golden Cauldron glowed, emitting billions of strands of Immortal light, releasing a world-destroying Qi as it smashed towards the old man.

This strike could be called a sure kill!

However, the old man, who had been sitting motionless outside the Ancient Cave, suddenly opened his eyes, which seemed like two exploding suns.

Immortal light surged around him. He didn't look like a corpse but more like a peerless expert who had walked out of ancient times, his Immortal power surging.

"Bang!"

In an instant, feeling danger, he instinctively struck out with a palm, his hand encompassing the sun, moon, and stars, a terrifying sight.

Lin Fan was greatly astonished. A Puppet, in an instant burst of power, actually possessed such strength. Was this a joke?

"Boom!"

With an explosion, Immortal light was boundless. Even though this mountain range was protected by formation patterns and difficult to damage, it still collapsed.

Fortunately, Lin Fan's attack was sudden, and he already held the advantage. The old man, caught off guard, was sent flying backward by the Immortal Cauldron, away from the Chaos Ancient Cave.

"The Opportunity has come!" Lin Fan was serious, his figure like a ghost, transforming into a bolt of lightning, rushing into the entrance.

His original intention was not to deal with this being, but to sneak into the Ancient Cave, so he did not confront it head-on.

"Roar…"

At this moment, the old man became enraged, letting out a roar that caused the sky to collapse and the earth to crack, and stars in the Universe to twinkle and fall.

This was terrifying; the spreading fluctuations could definitely kill any sect master!

Even though Lin Fan was wearing Immortal Dao armor and protected by Immortal Treasures, with this roar, his blood Qi was in disarray, and his Face turned pale.

"That was close. If I hadn't known early on that this person wouldn't step into the Ancient Cave, I really wouldn't have wanted to provoke him."

Lin Fan felt lingering fear. With a 'poof,' he coughed up a mouthful of blood, then turned and fled deep into the place.
