Chapter 1151 The True Culprit behind the Destruction of Realms

"Could it be..."

"Immortality?"

The thought crossed Shang Shaojun's mind involuntarily.

As far as he knew, among the survivors from other immortal cultivation realms, there were also some who had reached the realm of immortality.

Although not as unbeatable as the Immortal Sovereign of the Xuanyellow Realm, they were indeed not opponents that ordinary cultivators could handle.

"It should be so." Shang Shaojun's heart shuddered, and he became even more cautious in dealing with Li Fan.

The two continued to delve deeper into the Abyss, as the fusion of different world laws reached its peak.

New anomalies began to appear in the darkness.

A blood-red glow illuminated the way ahead.

Broken continents hung and floated above their heads.

From a distance, one could faintly see the ruins covering the land, as well as the densely packed white bones within the ruins.

All the floating world fragments were desolate.

Thick and root-like red threads sprouted from these fragmented continents, spreading to the depths of the Abyss and hiding in the darkness.

Occasionally, eerie sounds could be heard in the space.

It was like the sound of a metal blade scraping across bones, or the heavy breath of a dying person.

The eerie atmosphere here caused both Li Fan and Shang Shaojun, who had come to uncover the secrets, to instinctively stop in their tracks.

Seeing that Li Fan seemed to be carefully observing the strange scenery ahead, after pondering for a while, Shang Shaojun also sent a message expressing his own insight: "These broken worlds seem to still be alive?" He was somewhat uncertain.

The Saint Embryo Li Fan remained silent.

He simply unleashed a sword light, which flew straight towards one of the broken worlds.

Seeing this, Shang Shaojun's heart tightened, and he immediately became vigilant.

Although he had seen Li Fan's extraordinary swordsmanship, the backlash from the world, even in a dying world, was not to be underestimated.

The silvery-white sword light had already crossed space in an instant and arrived on the shattered continent.

To Shang Shaojun's surprise, the sword strike from Li Fan did not seem to be intended for destruction.

After piercing the barrier and landing, it remained motionless.

And the mark it had left in the air did not disappear.

The sword light had condensed, seemingly forming a thin silver thread.

It connected Li Fan to the broken world.

Li Fan floated on the silver thread, standing on it with his eyes closed, seemingly pondering something.

"This is..."

At first, Shang Shaojun was puzzled by Li Fan's actions.

But as he watched, he couldn't help but recall a scene of a mortal physician diagnosing and treating a patient.

"Using the sword as a guide, observing life and death."

"Could it be that this person is not only exceptional in swordsmanship, but also has deep expertise in [medicine]?" Shang Shaojun was shaken.

And Li Fan's subsequent actions made his heart race even more.

He lightly tapped the silver thread with his foot, and a ripple spread from the thin line to the shattered world.

At first, it was a barely noticeable tremor.

But then, as if it had triggered a resonance, the tremor became increasingly violent. The previously silent land suddenly came to life.

The rumbling came from underground, and along with the world's roar, countless lava erupted violently.

...

At that moment, Li Fan lightly flicked his finger, severing the sword light beneath his feet.

Then he fled far away in the opposite direction.

"Stay back."

As soon as Li Fan spoke, Shang Shaojun felt a huge force striking him, causing his body to uncontrollably fly backward.

His blood and energy surged, indicating that he had already been lightly injured.

Shang Shaojun was shocked as he turned around, only to find that the world Li Fan had "diagnosed" was already in the midst of a violent self-destruction.

Being already fragmented, the world was extremely fragile.

It couldn't withstand such intense energy fluctuations.

The land disintegrated completely, turning into endless crimson flames.

The last light of that world in the darkness also signified the passing of a world.

Watching this scene, Shang Shaojun couldn't help but become lost in thought.

Beside him, Li Fan explained, "If the world is destroyed by external force, it will not only cause a backlash from the world itself, but it may also alert the hidden powers behind everything."

"But if the remaining power of the world is forcibly activated, causing its natural death..."

As Li Fan spoke, a thousand sword phantasms appeared behind him.

The sword light intertwined, flashed, and then merged into the air.

"Step into the formation."

Upon hearing Li Fan's message, Shang Shaojun's heart jumped.

But he was so shocked that he had become almost numb, and he subconsciously followed Li Fan.

Upon entering the formation, Shang Shaojun saw the sword phantasms swiftly flying around the area.

Thousands of swords flew together, creating a highly concealed hiding place.

Before taking refuge in this sword formation, Shang Shaojun had seen Li Fan, using the same method, destroy several fragmented worlds ahead.

The terrifying impact released when the worlds were destroyed caused the deepest part of the Abyss to momentarily resemble a hell.

Countless dark red ashes, wrapped in the violent energy, surged out towards the Abyss.

It was like a horde of night-wandering ghosts.

The formation of a thousand swords seemed to be struggling.

It was constantly shrinking.

The countless sword lights also spun faster and faster, forming almost circular patterns.

But Li Fan did not seem to be worried about the formation not holding up.

He closed his eyes and stood straight, seemingly doing something.

"Wait."

Seeing Shang Shaojun's confusion, Li Fan simply sent a message and then fell silent.

Taking a deep breath, Shang Shaojun soon became serene under the influence of the chilling aura.

The flying swords not only isolated the outside scene, but also blocked his divine consciousness, making it impossible for him to see what was happening outside.

But judging by the constant sound of massive impacts on the sword formation, the impact of several fragmented worlds being destroyed in succession was certainly terrifying.

"If it weren't for him, I'm afraid I would have been in a dire situation just from this one impact."

"Swordsmanship, medicine, formations... Could someone really be proficient in all these arts?"

Shang Shaojun's thoughts churned, and even with the aid of the Immortal Heart Spell, he couldn't suppress the various speculations about Li Fan's identity.

It was unclear how much time had passed.

The storm outside the formation finally began to gradually calm down.

However, Li Fan seemed to have no intention of releasing the formation.

And from his increasingly serious expression, it seemed that there was still something in the outside world, perhaps even more terrifying than the destruction of the various realms.

"The mastermind behind the scenes?"

Shang Shaojun recalled the terrifying scene of countless world fragments hanging above their heads.

It was clearly not naturally formed.

The thought of a formidable being capable of treating worlds as mere playthings, perhaps appearing nearby at this very moment, made Shang Shaojun feel a bit uneasy.

"I wonder if this formation can really remain hidden?"

"If discovered by Him, it will undoubtedly be a dead end!"
