Floating in the skies were five figures. All five of them were wearing robes of different colors, with a single word embroidered on each of their chests.
Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth.
Five elements?
These five people seemed to have some sort of connection with each other. Even though their auras were hidden, they were not to be underestimated.
"HAHA! To think that the next Grandmaster of Xuanjian Sect would fall in love with a man. What a shock!"
"And she even has a sissy for a son! This is a thousand year scandal of Xuanjian Sect!"
...
The five of them did not seem to have anyone in their eyes at all. One after another, they insulted Xuanjian Sect as though it was worthless.
Now that an unknown enemy had arrived, Xuanjian Sect was on high alert. Xuan Yunxian's frail face had reverted to its usual cold state as she glared at the five people in the skies.
When she met Lin Fan's gaze, she revealed a gentle expression. This caused Lin Fan to feel a sense of guilt. She couldn't be depending on him now, could she?
"Who are you guys? May I know what business you have here at Xuanjian Sect for? " Grandmaster Xuan looked at the five people in the skies warily. The aura of these people was no weaker than hers. In fact, she could feel her heart skipping a beat.
Grandmaster Xuan searched the entire Dongling Continent and could not think of any sect that could be related to these people's robes. Could it be some sort of secret sect?
The man with the word 'Gold' on his chest spoke up, "You have no right to know who we are. All you need to know is that we're here to retrieve something."
Someone with ill intentions.
Grandmaster Xuan glanced at the Senior Elder beside her.
"What is it?" Grandmaster Xuan asked.
"The foundation of Xuanjian Sect." The man in the gold robes replied coldly.
"Impossible …!" The moment Grandmaster Xuan heard this, her face changed.
The foundation of Xuanjian Sect was this gigantic sword. If this man wanted the foundation of Xuanjian Sect, he would have to destroy Xuanjian Sect. No matter what, she could not agree to such a request.
"Whether it's possible or not, that's not up to you." The man in the gold robes snorted coldly. "I'll give you guys one incense's time to leave. Otherwise, all of you shall remain here."
Just then, the ground quaked as the gigantic sword began to vibrate. An endless amount of Sword Qi shot out from the gigantic sword, enveloping Xuanjian Sect within it.
"Humph, you don't know what's good for you. Do you think a mere Heavenly Yuan Sword Formation can stop us? You're simply daydreaming. You only have the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Once the time is up, you'll all have to stay here. "
After the five of them said this, they floated in the air without moving. Their cold eyes were filled with a mocking glint.
In their eyes, a mere Profound Sword Pavilion was nothing to worry about.
Xuanjian Sect was in a mess right now. No one knew who these people who had popped out of nowhere were.
Lin Fan looked at the void in confusion.
Five greater celestial full cultivation beings with 12 energy grid line chains. However, when the five of them were chained together, their cultivation states were higher than 12 energy grid line chains. These five must have some sort of secret skill up their sleeves.
"Grandmaster, just what is the background of these people? Why don't we head out to meet them?" One of the Senior Elders asked sternly.
Grandmaster Xuan's face was stern. These people's cultivation states were higher than hers. They only gave them the time it took for an incense stick to burn. But what use was that?
Just as Grandmaster Xuan and the others were discussing …
On the other hand, Lin Fan was thinking that perhaps he could strike a deal with Grandmaster Xuan.
And just as Lin Fan was thinking about these things, Xuan Yunxian came before Lin Fan and said reluctantly, "Take Feng 'er and leave."
Right now, Xuan Yunxian's cultivation state was already greater celestial lower level, and she had a single energy grid line chain. Even though the few people in the void were retracting their auras, the faint aura that was being emitted was enough to send chills down one's spine.
In Xuan Yunxian's eyes, a huge battle was about to break out soon. By then, she might not have the time to care about them.
"Master, I'm not leaving." Liu Linfeng spoke up.
Even though he was a sissy, he felt a sense of belonging towards Xuanjian Sect at this moment.
"Listen to your master. You guys leave first. Come back after things are settled." Xuan Yunxian said.
"No …!" Liu Linfeng shook his head. He then looked at Lin Fan, "Dad, please leave."
The moment Lin Fan heard the word 'Dad', he felt his entire body turn cold. It was as though this single word that came out of Liu Linfeng's mouth had some sort of magical power that could cause one's entire body to shiver.
Lin Fan did not reply to them. Instead, he came before Grandmaster Xuan, who was preparing a plan.
"Grandmaster Xuan, let me make a deal with you. As long as you hand this over to me, I'll help you kill these five people." Lin Fan took out a Supreme Being's Token Shard.
Something like the Supreme Being's Token Shard was something that not many sects knew about.
Other than those few 10,000 year old sects, none of those thousand year old sects knew anything about it.
Back then, only those 10,000 year old sects would have bits and pieces of records. As for those thousand year old sects, they might not even know about it. Therefore, when Lin Fan took out the Supreme Being's Token Shard, Grandmaster Xuan did not react much.
"This thing …?" Looking at the Supreme Being's Token Shard, Grandmaster Xuan frowned, as though she was thinking about something.
Grandmaster Xuan found this familiar. She then recalled.
"I have this thing. It might be a treasure. However, it's an evil object that can absorb a person's True Energy endlessly." Grandmaster Xuan replied.
Evil object? Lin Fan was bewildered. Since Grandmaster Xuan knew that it was an evil object, shouldn't she be able to absorb it with her greater celestial full cultivation True Energy? Why did she still think that it was an evil object?
Could it be that this piece that Grandmaster Xuan had was something special?
A greater celestial full cultivation True Energy wouldn't be able to fill it up.
Grandmaster Xuan rummaged through her storage ring for a while before taking out a Supreme Being's Token Shard.
"This is for you. Take Yunxian and the other disciples and leave." Grandmaster Xuan ordered.
"These five people are greater celestial full cultivation. I wonder how many energy grid line chains they've cultivated. If any ordinary disciple were to stay here, they'd just be sending themselves to their deaths. Yunxian, take the disciples and leave. If we can't defend this place, you guys can look for somewhere else. We're determined to carry on the legacy of our sect."
"Master …!" Yunxian wanted to say something more, but she was interrupted by Grandmaster Xuan. She then looked straight at Lin Fan, "Between you and Yunxian, all of us old fogeys can't stop you now. I only hope that you can live up to Yunxian's heart."
Lin Fan was stumped. This wasn't right. They were here to negotiate a deal, not to entrust their children to someone else.
"No, Grandmaster Xuan. Hand this over to me, and I'll kill the five people outside. This is a fair deal." Lin Fan replied.
When the five people outside heard Lin Fan's words, they roared out in laughter.
"HAHA! This is the biggest joke in the world! To think that this lad would kill the five of us! What a joke!"
"Jin, why don't we strike now? Why waste time with them?"
"That's right! The Lord is still waiting for us!"
...
Grandmaster Xuan shook her head and handed the shard over to Lin Fan, "Take Yunxian and the others and leave."
"Yunxian, listen to master. Take the disciples and leave."
Lin Fan sighed. After saying so much, she still didn't trust him.
Suddenly, the Heaven's Energy Sword Formation shook. The five people had struck.
"Hmph, I gave you guys one incense's time. Since you don't cherish it, you can all stay here then."
"Break!"
The man in gold robes roared. Golden light shone brightly, and an indestructible force crashed onto the Heaven's Energy Sword Formation.
BAM!
The Heaven's Energy Sword Formation shattered instantly. It couldn't even withstand a single strike.
Grandmaster Xuan and the others were stumped. The Highest Sword Formation was broken just like that? How could this be possible?
"Hmph …!" The five people in the air snorted coldly, causing the void to tremble.
"You guys leave. We'll hold them off …!" Grandmaster Xuan and the other Senior Elders stepped forth immediately. The look in their eyes was even more serious.
A single strike was enough to destroy the Heaven's Energy Sword Formation. This wasn't something they could defend against. But even if they had to use up their last breath, they had to get Yunxian and the other disciples out of here.
"Alright, the deal is done. It's time to fulfill it." Lin Fan kept the Supreme Being's Token Shards in his storage. To think that his luck would be this good. Not only did he get three of them, he wouldn't be far off from the rest.
Grandmaster Xuan and the others were stunned. What was this man trying to do? Didn't he know how strong the five of them were?
Looking at Lin Fan, Xuan Yunxian was extremely worried as well.
Lin Fan's long hair fluttered in the wind. Raising his head and looking at the five people in the air, his lips curled into a grin as he waved at them provocatively.
"Insolent …!" The five of them hollered. They had not expected this lad to dare to provoke them. They were going to let him know the true meaning of terror.
"What are you doing? You're not their match. "Grandmaster Xuan said.
...
Lin Fan did not bother about Grandmaster Xuan's words. He just stood there and looked at the void without any fear in the face of danger, replying calmly.
"Just a single palm strike and you'll be reduced to dust."
"Mad … mad!" Grandmaster Xuan said.
"Lad, go to hell …!" Suddenly, the gold robed man charged down from the skies. His fist was shrouded with an unparalleled golden aura, tearing the entire space apart.
And just as the golden-robed man was about to punch Lin Fan into oblivion, something horrifying happened.
The gold robed man's face changed. He could feel a frightening amount of power, as though he could not defend against it at all.
Impossible … absolutely impossible!
"BOOM!"
Just then, a bright beam of light covered the entire sky, followed by a loud explosion.
No one knew what was going on …
