Chapter 243: Taiyi Absorbs the Heavenly Calamity

"Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, Patriarch Taiyi..."

Li Fan pondered for a moment, and a plan formed in his mind.

He certainly wouldn't risk his life to go to Taiyi Hall to personally test the power of the Heavenly Calamity Sword.

However, with the Formless Killing Intent, he didn't need to venture into danger.

Using his clone, he went out and made some arrangements.

Meanwhile, Li Fan's main body quietly arrived in front of the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, waiting for an opportunity.

Soon, a guide on exploring the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace appeared from an unknown source and spread throughout the entire Cong Yun Sea.

Initially, cultivators were skeptical of the content in this "guide."

However, as some cultivators conducted experiments with their lives and genuinely gained inheritances, the validity of the guide was verified.

Mastering the rules of an anomaly meant avoiding almost all casualties.

Therefore, the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, which had always attracted cultivators for exploration, became even more lively.

Not only did some adventurous rogue cultivators participate, but even cautious members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, after obtaining the "solution" to clearing the palace, couldn't resist the temptation.

They flocked to the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, seeking their own fortunes.

As Li Fan, who had been waiting for a long time, selected those with good fortune using the Formless Killing Intent technique.

He used them as his eyes to investigate the mysteries of the Heavenly Calamity Sword.

Because the guide clearly stated the method to approach Taiyi Hall and awaken the turtle-snake monster.

However, it did not mention the opportunities that could be obtained at Taiyi Hall.

According to normal thinking, the deeper into the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, the more valuable opportunities one would obtain.

Among these adventurers, there were naturally those full of exploratory spirit and courage.

Thus, under Li Fan's watchful eyes, nearly a dozen people, even after gaining benefits from various places in the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, were still not satisfied and headed towards Taiyi Hall.

They arrived in front of the sword forest.

Although the pain of the swords piercing their hearts was terrifying, when thinking about the treasures ahead, the pain seemed to lessen significantly.

The group gritted their teeth, enduring the intense pain, and eventually, they arrived at the square in front of the Taiyi Hall, exhausted.

Following the guide, they shouted and yelled.

"I am the 167th generation disciple of the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, I request an audience with Patriarch Taiyi!"

"Patriarch Taiyi, please come out and meet us!"

The shouts echoed throughout the hall.

"Boom!"

The earth trembled, and Taiyi Hall rose into the air.

Under the frightened and expectant gazes of the crowd, the turtle-snake monster actually appeared.

It looked a bit bewildered as it looked at the people in front of it, taking a long time to react.

However, a few more clever cultivators began to operate the inherited martial arts they obtained from the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace, proving their identities.

Others quickly followed suit.

For a moment, lights from various martial arts shone on Taiyi, as per the guide's instructions.

This action by the Patriarch Taiyi seemed to enrage the Heavenly Calamity Sword.

Countless sword shadows fell like rain, mercilessly piercing through Taiyi's body.

Taiyi screamed in pain but refused to let go.

From the emergence of the original form of the Heavenly Calamity Sword to the turtle-snake using its body as a scabbard to block the attacks of the Heavenly Calamity Sword, it all happened in the blink of an eye.

With Taiyi's mournful cry, the cultivators on the square finally woke up from their stupor.

With fearful expressions, they tried to escape.

However, the sword forest in front had already made their arrival extremely difficult.

How could they easily escape at this moment?

Just as the cultivators had barely crossed half the distance of the sword forest, the Heavenly Calamity Sword finally completely broke free from Taiyi's body.

"Buzz!"

The sound of the sword rang out again.

As if disdainful of personally taking action, the tip of the Heavenly Calamity Sword did not point towards the escaping cultivators.

Instead, it aimed in the direction behind the Taiyi Hall.

The sound of the sword rang out.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

...

The fleeing cultivators' heads exploded one after another like watermelons, still moving forward for quite a distance until they collapsed.

At the same time, Li Fan instantly lost sight of the Taiyi Hall.

He could only vaguely see through the perspective of the cultivators exploring other areas.

Just as the pitch-black Heavenly Calamity Sword raged, a giant blue hand suddenly appeared behind the Taiyi Hall.

It grabbed the sword and forcefully thrust it back into the body of the Patriarch Taiyi.

The ear-piercing friction sound echoed throughout the entire Cloud Water Heavenly Palace.

At this moment, all the cultivators exploring inside the palace groaned, suffering varying degrees of injuries.

They all revealed horrified expressions.

Accompanying the screeching sound was the extremely tragic howl of the Patriarch Taiyi.

"Hanhai..."

The voice was like muffled thunder, rumbling all over.

Taiyi's painful cries seemed like a sigh of relief.

There was no resentment.

As the Heavenly Calamity Sword regained control, the myriad sword shadows gradually disappeared.

With a thunderous roar, Taiyi Hall descended, and Patriarch Taiyi fell into a deep sleep once more.

Everything returned to calm.

However, that giant blue hand slowly turned as pitch-black as the Heavenly Calamity Sword.
