CHAPTER 1941: CHAPTER 1528: FALLEN IMMORTAL’S LOST BATTLE

Li Fan looked up and saw a solitary crescent moon suspended in the blood-red Vault of Heaven, emitting an extremely intense smell of blood, as if it had gathered the lives of billions of living beings.

"This should be the main culprit causing the anomaly of this world," Li Fan mused.

Upon closer inspection, one could even see an endless expanse of Mountain of Corpses and Sea of Blood on the surface of the Blood Moon.

Li Fan had witnessed scenes far more tragic than this countless times, and naturally wasn’t stirred in the slightest. However, the reactions of other disciples of the Great Taoist Sect were relatively normal.

Each one had a pale face, and many even vomited on the spot.

Fang Dinge did not reproach anyone, but simply swept his gaze faintly across them.

Li Fan pretended to vomit in order not to attract attention.

After a while, once everyone had barely adjusted, Fang Dinge slowly spoke: "This world is called [Blood Moon], named after this monstrous thing above. The group of thieves who suddenly attacked our Great Taoist Sect fled to this location."

"We must cleanse the shame of the sect nearly being broken with their blood!"

As the leader of a sect, Fang Dinge was undoubtedly qualified. With just a few words, he stirred up everyone’s emotions.

The panic was instantly swept away, and the disciples of the Great Taoist Sect bristled with killing intent.

"Kill without mercy!" Fang Dinge ordered, and the crowd swiftly spread in all directions, each displaying their magic treasures and skills.

No wonder it’s one of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans; even the foundational disciples below the Golden Core Realm have a depth far exceeding that of loose cultivators from minor sects.

To avoid standing out, Li Fan merely performed the Sword Control Technique, stepping on a Water Sword and following behind one person.

This person was named Lei Fanshi, whom Li Fan had seen before in Sister Zhao’s memory. He was to become one of the elders of the Great Taoist Sect in the future. Being able to live to the future indicated that he wouldn’t encounter any fatal danger in this battle.

Although with Li Fan’s power, he should be able to sweep away opposition in this peculiar world at the Golden Core Realm. But such actions hold no practical meaning for Li Fan. Being drawn into this place was purely accidental. Li Fan still intended to quietly spread the Supreme Taoist Scripture amidst the Ten Sects during this event.

"Junior brother, your Sword Control Technique is truly extraordinary!"

Despite Li Fan’s efforts to remain low-key, the knowledge and skills he displayed could easily impress ordinary cultivators and instinctively make them feel extraordinary.

"Why don’t we join forces?" Lei Fanshi greeted him, asking tentatively. It was evident that at this moment, Lei Fanshi was still somewhat inexperienced. Perhaps it was his first time leaving the sect to carry out such a killing mission. Li Fan could clearly feel his inner tension.

"Then I will rely on senior brother’s care," Li Fan replied with a smile.

The two, following Fang Dinge’s instructions, ventured deep into the [Blood Moon] world, sweeping away the enemies.

As long as they saw living beings, and they weren’t disciples of the Great Taoist Sect, they killed without mercy.

This place, despite its overall strange environment, contained living beings not much different from normal humans. The only difference was their skin, which was a strange shade of purple.

After completing another massacre at a gathering point, Lei Fanshi stared blankly at the flames rising above the ruins, a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes.

"Not of our kind, their hearts are surely different."

"From the moment they invaded our Great Taoist Sect, they should have foreseen this outcome," Li Fan said coldly, reminding him.

This was partly what he truly believed and partly due to sensing Fang Dinge’s Divine Sense monitoring the disciples of the Great Taoist Sect, so he deliberately said it.

Lei Fanshi sighed and did not refute.

Just as they were about to leave, Li Fan suddenly gasped softly: "Senior brother, look at this!"

Lei Fanshi followed the sound, only to see Li Fan had dug out two shiny thin sheets from the black ruins, surrounded by complex engravings of the Mountain Sea Phenomenon, clearly not ordinary items.

Lei Fanshi’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly approached, taking the two sheets to examine them.

"Although I don’t understand the words on these sheets, the moment I saw them, the four large characters [Supreme Taoist Scripture] surged in my mind. Senior brother, this..." Li Fan’s voice trembled.

Holding the sheets, Lei Fanshi meticulously examined them. Initially puzzled, his expression soon became filled with shock.

Forcing himself to suppress his trembling body, he instinctively scanned around to ensure no one else was present, then took a deep breath, handing one of the sheets back to Li Fan: "These must be the Immortal World’s lost Taoist Scriptures, an unparalleled opportunity for us."

"I have discerned that there is no difference between the two sheets. Let’s each take one..."

"Today’s matter comes thanks to your benevolence. I will surely repay you in the future."

Although Lei Fanshi took one of the treasures, he at least returned the other half to Li Fan and did not conceal it. It wasn’t a matter of being a good person or a villain—just a normal person’s ordinary choice.

What surprised Li Fan was how quickly the other party discovered the profoundness of the Supreme Taoist Scripture.

"The elite of the Ten Sects truly surpass the disciples of second-rate sects," Li Fan thought, sensing another corner of the Tao revealing itself in the Mist, silently nodding.

Yet, he maintained an expression of shock and hesitation: "Such treasures, shouldn’t they be handed over to the sect? If we embezzle them, would the sect leader blame us upon discovery?"

Lei Fanshi snorted, dismissing the idea: "What are you saying? The Ten Sects’ heritage originates from the Immortal World, which has countless immortal treasures. Just one Taoist Scripture, and the sect leader would come to snatch it...that would be too degrading. No need to worry."

"Besides, only heaven, earth, you, and I know about this. As long as we keep our mouths shut, it’ll be fine."
