A flash of dark light appeared, silent and unnoticed.
It didn’t even cause the slightest fluctuation in spiritual energy.
If Li Fan wasn’t the one who initiated this dark light, watching it burst from his own body.
Even if it was close at hand, Li Fan could hardly detect it.
When the dark light touched the mountain, there was no earth-shattering explosion.
The solid rock melted as though it was ice and snow.
The speed of the dark light didn’t slow down, it continued to penetrate downwards, marching towards the depths of the earth.
Everything in its path was corroded by the dark light and reduced to nothingness.
In an instant, a black hole, two fingers wide and seemingly bottomless, appeared in front of Li Fan.
Upon observation with his spirit consciousness, Li Fan saw the dark light still penetrating the mountain, constantly descending.
However, while it was annihilating everything it touched, it did not mean the dark light was not being consumed.
Compared to the original beam of light, in just a few moments, the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword that had pierced the heart of the mountain, had already consumed more than half of its energy.
“I wonder, compared to Zhong Shentong’s Seven-color Divine Light, who’s better off!”
As the black light finally disappeared within the range of Li Fan’s sensing, he looked back at his masterpiece, resembling a miniature abyss, and couldn’t help but think this.
“Zhong Shentong’s Seven-color Divine Light is endless and inexhaustible, relentlessly attacking the opponent.”
“Let’s see where my limit lies, with the power of the Five Elements as the energy consumption basis.”
Next, he didn’t pause, instead, he continuously pointed with his fingers.
Streaks of black light, like arrows that annihilate all, appeared in the mountain, piercing downwards.
In fact, the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword is the manifestation of the power of the Sky Killing and the Mo Sha Technique in Li Fan’s Nine Law Golden Pill, it does not necessarily have to be manifested through the fingertips.
Any part of the body, like the eyes or feet, could also trigger it.
However, this attack method of spawning black light with a flick of the fingers, seems to align more with Li Fan’s aesthetic value of killing.
Inside Li Fan, the Power of Five Elements whirled, ceaselessly pushing on.
Providing continuous power to the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword.
After around the time to make a cup of tea, Li Fan had almost hollowed out the mountain without reaching his limit, still having plenty of energy left over.
But Li Fan was forced to stop his frenzied onslaught.
Because at that moment, what limited him from continuing to attack, was not the consumption of energy, but…
A wave of Brutality wanting to destroy everything in front of his eyes sprang up in Li Fan’s heart.
Both of Li Fan’s eyes were already completely consumed by profound darkness, thus he looked terrifying.
This desire to annihilate everything in the world didn’t appear suddenly.
It had gradually built up as Li Fan continuously triggered the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword.
At first, he could suppress it with his will and the Heart-Refining Spell of Xuan Huang.
But slowly, the Brutality intensified creating a powerful mental storm.
It almost occupied Li Fan’s entire spirit consciousness.
What little rationality was left in his heart told Li Fan that his current situation was his limit.
Therefore, he stopped the attack and invoked the power of Mi Chang and the Blue Flame to slowly suppress the chaos in his spirit consciousness.
He didn’t know how long it had been.
The madness in Li Fan’s eyes finally completely disappeared.
As his head cleared, Li Fan slowly exhaled.
“Although the Five Elements Annihilation Sword is powerful, its side effects are not to be underestimated.”
“However, for me, it’s quite all right.”
“If there really exists a foe who cannot be defeated by such a long-lasting dark light of Serenity Blade, then I might have to think about deploying Real.”
Having finished testing, Li Fan rose, preparing to leave this perforated mountain.
“Young man, your sword technique is not bad.”
Just at this moment, a somewhat old voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
Li Fan’s body stiffened instantly.
However, he managed to suppress the impulse to deploy Real immediately and quickly looked back.
An old man wearing a straw hat and clad in a straw cloak, had appeared inside the hollow mountain at some unknown time.
At this moment, he was squatting, observing the traces of destruction caused by the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword below.
On the old man’s back was a yellow bamboo woven fish basket.
Something seemed to be struggling inside, but Li Fan couldn’t quite see what it was.
“Fisherman?”
The old man’s attire was too distinctive.
So distinctive that Li Fan immediately thought of this name.
Remembering what he previously learned from the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan slightly breathed a sigh of relief.
At least at present, it seems this Fisherman senior does not harbor any ill intentions.
Li Fan didn’t completely let his guard down. He bowed and said respectfully, “Greetings, senior.”
The Fisherman did not reply. He was still carefully examining the void abyss around him.
Li Fan dared not leave on his own, so he waited patiently.
After a while, the old man finally clapped his hands and stood up straight.
“Hmm, it resembles, yet it’s not the same.” he shook his head and murmured.
He then looked at Li Fan curiously and asked, “Young man, do you know who I am?”
“The renowned Fisherman senior, this junior has heard of you.” Li Fan blandly said.
Meanwhile, the Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart faintly appeared on the Golden Pill within his Dantian.
“Fisherman…”
“If you choose to call me that, it’s not entirely incorrect.”
“After all, most people in this world, address me that way.”
“And with the passage of time and evolution of the world, to not stick to things, there’s nothing wrong.”
There was a fleeting sadness in the old man’s eyes.
“Unfortunately, I know, that’s not my real name.”
“But now, even I’ve forgotten my own name, what more can I expect from others?”
The Fisherman spoke with a hint of self-mockery.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan didn’t know what to say, so he chose to maintain silence.
The Fisherman seemed to fall into memories, lost in thought for a moment.
However, he quickly returned to normal, looked at Li Fan, and asked, “Young man, what’s the name of the sword technique you just used? Where did you learn it?”
“Here it comes…” Li Fan’s heart tightened, seeing the other party finally returning to the main topic.
Without delay, he replied, “This sword technique was created by me. Based on its characteristics, I have named it the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword.”
The Fisherman’s eyes lit up: “Five Elements Annihilation Sword, that’s a good name.”
“However, this ‘Great’ at the front, seems a bit overblown.”
The elderly man criticized without reserve.
“But, it’s common for young people to be full of enthusiasm.” As if reminiscing about something again, a flash of confusion passed through the Fisherman’s eyes.
Li Fan had already figured out that this Fisherman senior, sure enough, was just like the rumors.
He had some mental instability.
Not daring to interrupt, he stood quietly aside.
