Sword Aura to the Heavens-Chapter 242 - 238 Complete Execution

My master, Li Mountain Zuo Canglan!

All the Sword Cultivators looked up at that white-clad figure, finally understanding the true meaning of the words Zuo Tu.

Zuo Tu, Zuo Tu, the disciple of Zuo Canglan.

Once, Zuo Canglan descended from Li Mountain and became famed across the world. He was acclaimed as the most talented disciple of Li Mountain, the heir of Li Mountain Sword Dao, and the disciple of the Sword Saint of Li Mountain.

At that time, Zuo Canglan was vibrant and full of vigor, and in that era, every Sword Cultivator envied him.

The best sect, the strongest master, and extraordinary talent—only those who experienced that era truly knew the meaning behind the name Zuo Canglan.

Zuo Canglan lived up to expectations, his name shook the world as he entered the Sword Saint List and became one of Da Li’s strongest Sword Cultivators.

In that era, Li Chengying, who is now the fifth in the world, might only stand before Zuo Canglan in admiration.

However, as time moved on, things changed unpredictably. Zuo Canglan entered the Da Li Court as State Preceptor, and later experienced a palace struggle; eventually, Li Mountain fell into decline.

The glorious era belonging to Zuo Canglan thus concluded.

The name Zuo Canglan gradually faded from the sight of the world.

Later, it was heard that Wen Ruyu was his disciple, but Wen Ruyu had another identity: the son of Wen Jianshou. Therefore, when people mentioned Wen Ruyu, they more often recalled the similarly brilliant Li Mountain Sword Master.

And now, an astonishingly talented Sword Cultivator has emerged onto the scene, challenging Seven Swords at Xuanyuan Sword Dojo, making all Seven Swords resonate simultaneously. With his sheer strength in the Secret Realm, he has overshadowed top-ranked Sword Cultivators from the Green Cloud List.

Just when everyone wondered who he was, he finally revealed his origins.

Li Mountain, disciple of Zuo Canglan!

No wonder he seeks the fate of the world’s Sword Dao; he wants to inherit the path that Zuo Canglan had not completed, the path to the pinnacle for Sword Cultivators.

The hopes once placed on Zuo Canglan are now carried by his disciple as he descends the mountain.

Could this be another Zuo Canglan?

Previously, they thought Li Fan was arrogant, believing that even with outstanding talent, it was difficult for him to enter the Sword Ranking, let alone the Sword Saint List.

But now, who dares to question?

His master was once on the Sword Ranking and had the opportunity to reach the top.

If they knew his master was Zuo Canglan, would anyone have dared to kill him?

Why didn’t they dare to kill Ying Ze and seize his Sword Intent?

Now that they are dead, they are likely dead for nothing, and their sects and families, do they dare to shake Li Mountain?

Even though Li Mountain is not what it once was, it is not something they dare provoke.

Furthermore, it has now been made clear that Li Fan is not just an ordinary disciple of Li Mountain but likely the successor of Li Mountain.

"He previously mentioned Jiang Tai E. Could it be that he and Jiang Tai E have already fought?" freeweɓnovel-cøm

"It is said before Lingxiao Pavilion visited Li Mountain, Wang Daoxuan brought Jiang Tai E along. Wang Daoxuan did not make it down the mountain alive, but Jiang Tai E reportedly had a battle with a Li Mountain disciple."

Some disciples of top sword dao powers have vaguely heard some rumors, and their gazes towards Li Fan have shifted slightly.

A genius without background and a top genius as a disciple of Li Mountain are not the same.

Ying Ze and Qu Lan’s eyes also revealed signs of fear.

No wonder Li Fan is so arrogant and strong; he has the backing of Li Mountain.

Li Mountain has not exposed their deeds, only calling it personal grievances. Even if they were killed, Li Chengying might not necessarily take action.

After all, they are merely disciples, not direct disciples, and if killed in the Secret Realm due to personal grudges, there’s little the Shadow Inheritor Sword can do.

Li Chengying may be the fifth in the world, but that’s Li Mountain.

Who can truly guarantee that Li Mountain cannot affect this world’s fifth?

All thoughts are fleeting, and the Li Hen Sword has already fallen, like a menacing dragon aimed at Ying Ze.

"Clang."

Ying Ze realized there was no way out; the Vajra Venerate erupted, and he roared: "Take action."

If they don’t kill Li Fan, they all face certain death, with no escape.

Qu Lan and another disciple of the Shadow Bearing Sword Sect also took action together, the blood-colored Lightning Sword heading for Li Fan, a moment that soaked the sky in blood aura.

Li Fan glanced towards them, and the Sword of the Great Tao thundered between his brows, brilliant sword light burst forth, a Sword Seed appeared and transformed into a purple Star Giant Sword, with rune lights engraved upon it. With each rune light illuminating, the shadow of a Divine Sword seemed to appear.

When all the rune lights shone simultaneously, the Sword Seed shot downward, carrying the virtual shadows of countless Star Giant Swords together ’falling’.

Qu Lan’s brow exploded with a blood-colored brilliance, his body seemingly transforming into a sword, the blood-colored Divine Sword slashed towards Li Fan, colliding with the descending Sword Seed.

"That—is Li Fan’s Sword Seed?"

The Sword Cultivators below looked up at the sky. A Sword Seed is the foundation of a Sword Cultivator; the source of a Sword Cultivator’s Sword Dao originates from the Sword Seed, and cultivating as a Sword Cultivator is the process of continuously refining the Sword Seed.

But upon seeing Li Fan’s Sword Seed, they still felt intense emotions stirring within.

As sword met sword, bloodlight and violet glow erupted simultaneously, accompanied by Qu Lan’s bellow. With only one arm, he struggled to push his sword forward.

Surrounding him, giant golden swords hung down, and at this moment, Qu Lan felt he was resisting the Sword of the Great Tao.

"Kill."

Li Fan’s gaze fixed on Qu Lan, and the light between his eyebrows blazed brightly. As his voice fell, those giant sword phantoms pierced through Qu Lan’s form, causing Qu Lan’s body to tremble violently before he helplessly hung in midair, gazing upward at the cold, white-clothed figure.

It turns out, he was never any kind of genius.

"Pu chi..."

The Sword Aura completely submerged Qu Lan’s body, and the Sword Seed struck at another person, who, despite also being a disciple of the Shadow Bearing Sword Sect, was far inferior to Qu Lan and was immediately killed.

A sense of crisis swept in as Li Hen Sword was breached by Ying Ze just as Li Fan became distracted, revealing the enormous figure of the Vajra Venerate. Numerous golden giant swords simultaneously slashed towards Li Fan, and on Ying Ze, radiated boundless killing intent.

He was already in a desperate situation and could only charge forward; he must kill Li Fan to survive.

Li Fan looked up, and with a dragon’s roar, the massive Demon Dragon figure protected him as the Sword Seed, later started, struck at Ying Ze.

Ying Ze thrust the golden giant sword in his hand, clashing with Sword Seed, only to see behind him, the Li Hen Sword returning.

"Buzz..."

The first sword instantly killed, and Ying Ze couldn’t care about Li Fan. The sword on the arm of his Vajra Venerate slashed towards that sword.

But what greeted him was the second sword, the third sword...

As the Nine Swords soared simultaneously, the Dharma Form of his Vajra Venerate shielded him, and he watched the flying swords, believing that the slightest negligence could cost him his life.

His gaze swept around, seeing the Li Hen Sword circling his body without killing, as if toying with him.

Ying Ze’s face darkened to the extreme.

He saw Li Fan’s figure appear above him, looking down at him.

"First on the Green Cloud List?" Li Fan looked at him and said, "You can die now."

As his words fell, the Nine Swords flew straight toward Ying Ze, lining up in a formation.

"Kill!"

In Li Fan’s mind, a sword roared, as the nine Li Hen Swords stabbed straight down, seemingly intending to shamefully execute Ying Ze.

Ying Ze swung his arms, the Vajra Venerate’s arms moved, countless sharp swords appeared before him, heading for the attacking Li Hen Sword.

Brilliant sword light stabbed people’s eyes, even Li Fan’s pupils emitted sword light.

"Clang..."

A violent explosion sounded as the Li Hen Sword clashed against Ying Ze’s sword.

The crowd saw a dazzling strong light bloom, followed by Ying Ze’s furious roar and the radiant brilliance erupting from between Li Fan’s brows.

Bang!

As thunder exploded, a beam of strong light appeared behind Ying Ze’s head, the Li Hen Sword rang with a bloodthirsty aura.

Looking again at Ying Ze, one saw that he still kept an attacking posture, but the Dharma Form of the Vajra Venerate was collapsing and shattering, his hands fell weakly, and blood rained.

First on the Green Cloud List, dead.

Li Fan held Lu Yuan with one hand, raised his right hand, and as the Li Hen Sword flew back to him, he plundered the Sword Intent from Ying Ze, the Sword Intent of the Sword Cultivators he killed, all merged with him.

Watching Li Fan gather those Sword Intents, the crowd was left speechless; now, Li Fan’s body held nearly two million Sword Intents.

But who would dare to seize them?

Today, previous Green Cloud third Qu Lan, dead.

Current first and third on the Green Cloud List, dead.

The three Great Sword Cultivators of Lingxiao Pavilion, dead.

Li Fan alone stained his hands with the blood of so many talents.

Only to see him looking up, his gaze directed to where Ke Junlin was.

Earlier, Ke Junlin also had the intention to kill Li Fan but feared to act afterwards.

"Hand over the Sword Intent." Li Fan said as he looked at Ke Junlin.

Ke Junlin looked at Li Fan, his expression tense and undecided.

"Refuse, and die." Li Fan spoke coldly.

Ke Junlin tightly clenched his fists, yet saw the Sword Intent he had seized flying toward Li Fan, without daring to defy his will.

Li Fan looked down, gazing at the Sword Cultivators who previously harbored thoughts of killing him, and said: "While I’m here, none of you may step onto this path, as there are no opportunities for you here."

Having said that, he turned, embraced Lu Yuan, and walked alone toward that staircase.
