Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!

Chapter 148: Chapter 136: Erase the Immortal King in One Stroke?_1

Heavenly Realm.

Southern Territory, Cangli Mountain Range.

Lu Rang, Dugu Yuqing, and others had already hurried back to the small mountain village.

When they entered the village, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as they reached this place, even if it were beings above immortality itself, they wouldn’t be so worried anymore.

They soon arrived outside Li Fan’s courtyard.

Lu Rang went straight forward to push the door open and entered the courtyard, saying,

“Master, we have returned.”

Inside the courtyard, Li Fan was leisurely teaching Xinning to read poetry and playing chess at the same time.

His opponent was himself.

Having played chess with Lu Rang before, whose skills in the game were not so great, Li Fan had become somewhat interested, hence the few rounds against himself.

“You’ve all returned. Did everything go smoothly on your journey?”

Seeing Lu Rang and others return, Li Fan asked with a smile.

The other disciples too stopped what they were doing and turned their gaze towards Lu Rang and Dugu Yuqing!

Nan Feng, Zi Ling, Long Zixuan, and others all had a hint of anticipation and curiosity in their eyes.

They knew that this time, the two younger brothers had stirred up huge waves on their journey!

Even beings of the Immortal and even above that level had appeared.

“Reporting to Master, all went smoothly,”

Dugu Yuqing reported, saying,

“We have completed the task according to Master’s wishes!”

His heart was still somewhat moved; if Master had told him and Lu Rang before departing that they would face Immortals, beings above immortality, he probably wouldn’t have dared to go!

Fortunately, the items from the Immortal Dao Palace were now secured.

He believed that was the Master’s intent.

Li Fan, hearing this, smiled as well. It seemed that the task was accomplished quite perfectly.

Dugu Yuqing had only learned calligraphy for a short time but was already making a name for himself in the outside world?

“The prize then? Let me have a look,”

Li Fan inquired.

He was quite curious about the prizes offered in the outside competition. If possible, he might consider participating in the future…

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yuqing was startled, but then quickly realized what was meant!

The “prize” teacher was referring to must be that Broken Sword!

For the teacher, this experience was a test for his disciples, and the items gained as a result were naturally regarded as prizes!

“Here it is!”

Dugu Yuqing immediately presented the Broken Sword with great respect.

Seeing this, everyone else was taken aback.

“This sword… so terrifying, it emits not a single horrifying aura, yet it’s like an abyss, unfathomable…”

Long Zixuan couldn’t help but speak out!

“Though dormant and concealed, one can still sense that invincible sharpness… This sword must have once been bathed in True Brahma Holy Blood…”

Qing Chen murmured even more. In his eyes, this sword was simply an enormous fierce weapon!

Supreme fierceness!

The Yuanyang Holy Lord and others were all profoundly shocked. Merely a glance at this sword imposed upon them a pressure their souls could hardly withstand!

“This sword… Just by approaching it, 1 almost transcend into the Dao… Can it absorb all the Sword Dao of the world?!”

Dugu Chenlu murmured in astonishment.

This was too terrifying.

Xinning also widened her eyes, looking incredulously at the Broken Sword!

“Demon Monarch, this, is this the legendary sword from the Southern Immortal Domain?!”

Gong Ya asked with a trembling voice.

This sword almost made her kneel!

Because the Broken Sword had once been bathed in countless Demon Blood, she even felt it included the blood of the Immortal Demon Monarch and even… beyond that, the blood of a Demon King!

This was too horrifying…

The feat could only belong to that one sword from the Southern Immortal Domain!

The Wuji Immortal Sword that once guarded Tian Nan, deterring the Demon Domain from crossing even a step beyond the Forbidden Sea!

“It must be… In the world, only that sword would possess such terrifying might… Why is this sword in the Lower World? Could the legend be true?”

Xinning murmured, “The Infinite Sword King of the Southern Immortal Domain, due to his friend, the Immortal King of the First Heavenly Realm being harmed, unsheathed his sword to battle the kings of the Immortal Domain… and fell in the Lower World?”

Thinking thus, her big eyes turned to Li Fan, filled with even more doubts!

Then, who exactly was Li Fan?

How did he know where this sword was?

And moreover, he could easily send disciples to retrieve it…

While everyone was still in shock, Li Fan casually took the Broken Sword and weighed it in his hand.

It turned out to be a Broken Sword?

This prize was quite unusual; could it be some sort of antique?

Li Fan said, “The sword is not bad, and the materials used for the forging are also alright. It’s just a shame it’s broken… Perhaps it will be better if I have a chance to reforge it someday.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was even more shocked.

Such a terrifying divine sword, in the eyes of Li Fan, was actually only…

Still okay…

Quite alright…

“Even the sword of the Infinite Sword King, in his eyes, is just okay…”

Xinning murmured, her mind drifting into a daze, what kind of existence was she actually facing…

Gong Ya’s expression was even more complicated; the more she understood the terror of this sword, the more she realized how frightening Li Fan’s casual comments were!

Dugu Yuqing’s eyes lit up as he said, “Master, are you versed in the art of sword casting?”

Li Fan smiled and replied, “Sword casting? Your teacher has merely a little knowledge about blacksmithing…”

Blacksmithing?

Everyone was momentarily stunned.

But, they soon understood!

“Senior Li’s mention of blacksmithing… it refers to the grand path of artifact refinement!”

Everyone came to this realization!

Artifact refinement, in the eyes of the world, was profound and difficult, but for an entity like Senior Li… it was as simple as an ordinary blacksmith forging iron!

Dugu Yuqing was immediately overjoyed, fully aware of the significance behind his teacher’s words!

For others, a little knowledge might indeed mean just that.

However, everyone in the room understood that Li Fan’s little knowledge… surely meant another path leading to ultimate mastery.

“The Dao of artifact refinement is immensely complicated; among ten thousand cultivators, only one or two lucky ones might emerge capable of refinement… Yet Senior Li is also an expert in this field.”

“Senior Li truly is learned beyond mortal kin, and I really want to know, is there anything in this world that he does not understand?”

“Versed in ancient and modern wisdom, there is nothing beyond his reach… it is just so.”

People also sighed with admiration.

“Right, Master, there’s one more thing, this time… there’s an extra person in your painting!”

Dugu Yuqing continued, taking out the Great Sun Taoist Map that Li Fan had given him and unrolling it.

Nan Feng and Zi Ling also came over, curious about the extra person in their Master’s painting. What was the situation?

A group of disciples paid close attention.

Yuanyang Holy Lord and others were even more solemn; they knew the contents of this painting were extremely significant, involving existences beyond immortality.

As the scroll was unfurled, everyone saw the red sun within, as if plucked from the realm of reality into the painting, the space within the scroll vast, with the red sun setting in the west, filled with an indescribable supreme truth.

And now, within the painting, there was a figure approaching the red sun.

“Closer by a margin!”

Yuanyang Holy Lord and the others were shocked beyond measure.

Compared to when they were at Taiyan Holy Land, the figure was now closer to the red sun.

“This clone could belong to an existence above immortality… if it approaches, it might break out of the painting!”

“If such a supreme existence is unleashed, the Million Lower Realms may be in for cataclysmic upheaval, with no one able to stop it…”

They were all fraught with anxiety!

As for Gong Ya Demon Marshal, she merely glanced at it from a distance, only to feel a stabbing pain in her eyes, almost drawing blood, and she quickly lowered her head!

“Demon Monarch… That shadow, trapped within the painting, must be a terrifying entity…”

She transmitted her fears with trepidation!

As a Demon Marshal herself, she knew far more about such terrifying beings!

There was an old prophecy: “The Immortal King should not be looked upon!”

Gazing directly at an Immortal King would often lead to all manner of weird and terrible outcomes, with many people dying unexpectedly.

Xinning also glanced at it, murmuring, “Could it be that the painting holds a clone of an Immortal King? That’s too terrifying…”

The thought was unimaginable.

The Immortal King was a truly supreme being in heaven and earth.

Even over tens of thousands of years, one might scarcely emerge.

The Immortal King was synonymous with invincibility.

And now, a clone of an Immortal King was trapped within a painting… If this news spread, the entire Immortal Domain would be thrown into turmoil!

Li Fan, upon looking at his own painting, couldn’t help but feel slightly displeased!

Who was this, lacking any public decency, doodling on his painting?

It was simply too much, lacking any manners at all!

Moreover, this figure, though indistinct, was vaguely discernible as a male; painting an immortal fairy or such, one could call it an ascension by daylight, giving it some appeal… but now, it was truly ugly!

“Master, what should we do about this…”

Dugu Yuqing was somewhat uneasy.

Although Li Fan was displeased, he did not blame Dugu Yuqing and the others, saying indifferently:

“No matter, it’s nothing serious, bring me ink and a brush.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up.

Zi Ling immediately went to the study to fetch the ink and brush.

All eyes were on Li Fan.

With a sweeping stroke of his brush, soaked in ink, Li Fan crossed over the painting in a swift move!

As he made this stroke, everyone felt a shudder in their souls, as if some unspeakable existence was fading away, with the Dao thundering and laws intertwining!

And with Li Fan’s stroke, the figure within this Great Sun Taoist Map… was erased by him!

In an instant, everyone was stunned!

Deathly silence descended, absolute silence!
