Ye Fan had woken up, like a humanoid dragon that had awoken from a deep slumber. In that instant, he emitted a powerful will that was indestructible and unstoppable.
His eyes were sharp, like an unsheathed immortal sword, extremely dazzling, drawing out streaks of lightning in the sky, rushing in all directions, shocking everyone.
"He's awake. How powerful is his martial will?" Many people felt their hearts tremble, chills running down their backs, goosebumps appearing.
Everywhere Ye Fan's gaze passed, it was like a heavenly sword striking horizontally, ringing out, directly slashing into people's souls. Many people's foreheads cracked, bloody scars appearing as they staggered backwards.
Everyone gasped. Ye Fan had clearly succeeded, comprehending his own supreme technique, possessing the strength to look down on all heroes under the heavens. This kind of martial will could shake the world.
Pang Bo's back, a broken spear was stuck in between the cracks of his bones, holding a black blade. His entire body was covered in blood, but at this moment, he was laughing loudly, pulling at his wounds, causing fresh blood to flow.
"He's finally awake!" Longma also shouted. The pressure on him was great. From the start of the battle until now, his body was covered in wounds, and now he was facing a heaven devouring beast whose cultivation level was higher than his. He was already exhausted, blood gushing out.
It really wasn't easy. Ye Fan had woken up at this critical moment, allowing those on the verge of death to heave a sigh of relief, relieving some of the pressure.
When a saint comprehended the dao, sitting for ten years wasn't much, but the Great Sage could easily sit for over a hundred years. During this period, his mind would wander, forgetting himself and everything else, only the dao in his eyes, unable to tolerate anything else.
This was also the reason why cultivators would choose a quiet place for seclusion, far away from the clamor of the mortal world.
This was especially true for those who comprehended the dao at a deeper level, like Ye Fan. His heart was in the dao realm, his mind wandering the nine heavens, forgetting everything, unable to wake up even if the sound of thunder was deafening. If someone approached him, it would be disadvantageous, and there would be a calamity.
And now, he had finally awakened. To his own people, this was great news, but to his enemies, it was terrible news.
Ye Fan sat cross-legged under the bodhi tree. Tens of thousands of leaves swayed and rustled, as if ancient scriptures were being flipped through, chanting an unchanging law and dao that transcended the past, present, and future, ringing out without end.
Suddenly, a strand of golden blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, dripping onto his clothes. It was a ghastly sight, leaving many people stupefied.
"Ye Fan!" Ji Ziyue exclaimed and clenched her fists. She was filled with worry and wanted to rush over, but she was stopped by Sang Gu's sneer.
"Ye Fan, what's wrong?" Pang Bo was anxious and worried that something might happen to him.
"Four Extremities Consummation, Celestial Thearch Fist has been completed, but the Dao injuries are still there," Ye Fan replied secretly, telling him not to worry.
Pang Bo heaved a sigh of relief, but he still couldn't get over it. "Why is it like this?"
"There's no need to worry. The Dao injuries haven't deepened, so it's nothing. It won't affect my battle prowess. I'll find a time to resolve it." Ye Fan told him to relax.
The gold-eating beast, Copper Ant King, and the others' expressions were very interesting. Just now, they were shocked and worried, but they immediately relaxed. Their brows smoothed out, revealing expressions of joy.
"Heh, he was injured by the Great Dao. Most likely, his comprehension has failed!" Someone said with schadenfreude.
"He looks very powerful, but he's clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing. He's just a paper tiger. Who's going to take his head?" Someone burst into laughter.
Even though they said this, no one went up. They were all looking at the others, fearing that they might accidentally kick a metal plate.
Ye Fan didn't get up, but instead closed his eyes and savored the wondrous state of dao comprehension just now. The harvest this time was too great, and he had refined his own great technique.
Sect protector, protector, and dao protector all needed methods. Now that he had refined an exceptional divine technique like the Emperor Fist, he had nothing to fear. He had a vigorous fighting spirit that could battle the Nine Heavens.
Boom!
In the distance, First Gentleman Golden Snake, who was fighting against Ji Haoyue with his ancestral artifact, was the first to attack. He opened his mouth and roared. A whirlwind tore through the sky, sweeping towards the Bodhi Tree.
Within the astral wind, there was a daoist diagram condensed from runes. It rumbled like thunder as it suppressed down. It was not a particularly powerful attack, but it was mainly probing.
Ye Fan opened his eyes. His gaze was still as sharp as before, and with a flash of light from the center of his eyebrows, he slashed out with a streak of light, cleaving the daoist diagram in half.
This kind of battle prowess made everyone frown. It was hard to say. He seemed to be at the Eighth or Ninth Heavenly Layer of Saint Ruler, but it also seemed like he had stopped at the Sixth Heavenly Layer.
"He's gained something, and his battle prowess has skyrocketed. However, he hasn't undergone the tribulation, so his performance is unstable. Killing him now is the best opportunity." Sang Gu saw through the situation with a single glance.
"Kill!"
Hearing that, all the experts rose up. They all attacked together. There were obviously people among them who wanted to kill Ye Fan and steal his essence soul, such as the Heaven-devouring Beast, Sang Gu, and First Gentleman Golden Snake.
However, there were even more people who wanted the Bodhi Tree. Who wouldn't want a divine medicine like that? Taking advantage of the chaos, as long as they could get close, they could not steal the entire tree. Just breaking off a branch would be enough!
This was the true medicine of immortality, and it could also assist in comprehending the way. It was priceless, and even the Great Sage had gone crazy for it. Otherwise, those people would not have mobilized such a large force to attack the divine realm.
The earth corpse chanted a demonic chant. His eyes were cold. He was one of the most terrifying people among them, and he was only a step away from becoming the Great Sage. Now that he had personally moved out, he encouraged a group of people to charge forward madly.
There was only one Bodhi Tree. Even if it was broken, it would not be enough, so they could only act first.
"Croak!" A deep, thunderous cry rang out. The Nine-eyed Jade Toad appeared.
"A bunch of trash!" At the same time, a cold voice rang out. A Heavenly Peng appeared. Its entire body seemed as if it was cast in gold, dazzling and resplendent.
The Ancient Golden Peng had arrived. It spread its wings and soared into the sky, faster than everyone else. It was said to be able to soar 90,000 miles in an instant. Its giant golden wings created astral winds that sent many people flying.
Its gaze was sharp as it coldly swept over everyone. It even wanted to attack the earth corpse. It transformed into a golden beam of light and rushed over. Its godly speed reached its peak, showing disdain for the crowd.
Many people made their moves, but none of them could touch it. The Ancient Golden Peng was the first to arrive. It swooped down towards the Bodhi Tree and stretched out a pair of giant golden claws, about to pull away the tree.
A supreme martial will rushed into the sky, turning into a golden river that fiercely knocked it away. This was the golden blood energy emitted from the top of Ye Fan's head.
Everyone was terrified!
The Ancient Golden Peng was furious. The great Peng spread its wings and soared into the sky. Regardless of whether it was in the archaic legends or in the real world, they were all wild and untamed. They were not bound by the laws of the world and were not willing to lower their heads.
Now that it was injured, it didn't retreat but advanced instead. Its resplendent golden wings tore apart the sky as it swooped down. It opened its mouth to swallow Ye Fan who was under the Bodhi Tree.
Its golden beak was even sharper than a heavenly blade. It could shatter the heavens, and after opening its mouth, it could swallow all things. Not to mention Ye Fan, even the entire ancient land would be swallowed by it.
However, the Bodhi Tree swayed and flickered with green light. Ye Fan sat there without moving in the slightest. He was as still as a boulder.
A terrifying transformation was taking place. The Ancient Golden Peng's golden wings covered the sky as it swooped down. Its body became smaller and smaller. It wasn't of its own will, but rather because it was being suppressed by a type of martial will.
The tens of thousands of zhang Ancient Golden Peng descended. In the end, it actually shrunk to a foot in length, unable to swallow Ye Fan at all. Moreover, its golden claws and beak were both sealed.
It cried out in anger, unable to struggle free. It directly fell down, wrapped within a gentle dao light as it landed on Ye Fan's shoulder.
Ye Fan sat there, chanting sutras from his mouth. His immortal platform shone, tens of thousands of dao patterns shone, cleansing the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng. No matter how it flapped its wings, no matter how it roared, it still couldn't struggle free.
Everyone was shocked. This was but a Golden-Winged Great Peng, one of the most ferocious, one of the most powerful ancient bloodlines, yet it was suppressed just like that. Right now, it was like an ordinary bird.
In the end, the Ancient Golden Peng calmed down. Its body shrunk to a foot in length, standing on Ye Fan's shoulder. It no longer struggled, actually submitting.
"Comprehending the dao under the Bodhi Tree, subduing Mahamayuri, no, now … it's the Golden-Winged Great Peng!" Pang Bo was stupefied. When he thought of the buddhist story, he really felt that it was a bit similar.
Right at this time, Ye Fan stood up. His powerful aura covered heaven and earth, sweeping towards everyone. The entire world was boundless, enemies everywhere. However, his expression was calm, not feeling any fear.
The Golden-Winged Great Peng was extremely quiet, standing on his shoulder. Its eyes flickered with light, looking at everyone with disdain, ready to pounce over at any time. This result left everyone shocked, fearful, and speechless.
"Did all of you come to kill me?" Ye Fan's voice wasn't loud, but it was like a curse, making everyone's hearts tremble.
Everyone retreated. How powerful was the Golden-Winged Great Peng King? He was a well-known figure, yet he was instantly subdued. How would they dare to go up and throw their lives away?
"We … have no ill intentions towards you. We only want a Bodhi Tree branch." The person at the very front braced himself and said.
Ye Fan didn't pay him any attention. He stared at the Gold Eating Beast, Copper Ant King, and the others at the very front. His eyes swept over these old enemies one after another, his killing intent not concealed at all.
Even though he hadn't crossed tribulation yet, his true strength had already reached the level of defying the great dao. He didn't need the approval of heaven and earth, so outsiders didn't know about this at all. He towered over all directions, his aura devouring mountains and rivers, crushing everyone until they couldn't breathe.
"What do you want?" The Gold Eating Beast shouted. This type of pressure made even his undying metal body feel oppressed, about to collapse.
"I want to kill you." Ye Fan's words were calm, simple and direct.
"You dare fight against so many of us alone? Aren't you scared of dying in vain?!" The Copper Ant King also shouted loudly, encouraging everyone to take action together.
"See if I dare or not!" Ye Fan said. He disappeared from his original location, turning into an expanse of heaven overflowing golden light as he rushed forward. It could be called a hurricane, because it was too domineering. It engulfed the heavens above and earth below, as if a crazy gale had passed through.
The people at the front flew outwards one after another, blood flowing out from their seven apertures. Their internal organs felt like they were going to split apart, all of their expressions changing, their scalps going numb. This type of power was too shocking.
"You …" The Gold Eating Beast turned pale with fright, doing everything he could to resist.
However, chaotic energy surged over. He didn't see Ye Fan's entire body, only seeing a pair of fists that suppressed the world, crushing all things!
"Pu!"
The Gold Eating Beast released a loud cry. Its body exploded, blood splashing outwards. It was close to despair. It didn't even see the enemy clearly before it was directly blasted apart in the void.
Qiang!
Black Dragon Patterns trembled, rushing out from within its body, turning into a poisonous thorn that shot forward. With a zheng sound, it was clamped down by two golden fingers, unable to move in the slightest.
"Everyone, this person is unmatched, touching upon the taboo domain. Let's attack together and kill him!" The Gold Eating Beast roared crazily, full of fear.
Pu!
What he received in response was only a fist. After this strike, the Gold Eating Beast's shattered body turned into dust, primordial spirit even more so turning into smoke, body and spirit destroyed.
On the side, the Copper Ant King was terrified, his face snow white, almost trembling as he fled for his life.
However, a figure walked over from the primal chaos. It looked like it was moving slowly, but with a single step, mountains and rivers would reverse, stars moving and moon moving, great speed exceeding normal reasoning. It was as if it hadn't moved at all, yet it directly blocked in front of the Copper Ant King.
Chaotic mist surged. A fist appeared, tyrannical in the heavens above and earth below. Even though the Copper Ant King was known to possess world-shaking divine strength, a copper head and iron arms, right now, he was blasted through by this fist, blood splashing several dozen meters into the air.
No ancient treasure could stop this. The Copper Ant King had collected more than thirty weapons, secret treasures, and other things. They were all blasted into pieces by this emperor fist, turning into scattered ashes.
Blood splashed high into the air. The Copper Ant King's expression froze, his head exploding. Then, the chaotic energy scattered, and Ye Fan's figure disappeared into the distance. Only the Ant King's crushed bones and blood remained in his original location.
