Chapter 98: War Token Arrives—!
Chapter 98: Chapter 98: War Token Arrives—!
After a brief silence.
"Hum!"
Deep within the Immortal Burial Valley, amidst the swirling mist, a figure emerged out of thin air from the dense fog nearly half a kilometer away.
This was a middle-aged man, wearing a black robe, with a face as fine as jade, adorned with a refined aura. His eyes were purer than that of a newborn baby, but upon closer inspection, those pupils seemed to contain the stars of the universe, profound beyond measure!
The middle-aged man tread through the air, his feet at least ten feet off the ground, leaving Wei Shichang with his jaw agape!
The guard who had led Wei Shichang into the Immortal Burial Valley buried his head deeply into his neck!
"Are you certain that his name is Lin Fan?"
The middle-aged man asked, carrying the air of looking down upon all beings.
"How dare I deceive an Immortal!"
Wei Shichang felt immense pressure, the likes of which he had never endured in his life, leaving him no choice but to kneel on the ground, his forehead tightly pressed to the earth and shivering uncontrollably.
The man before him was like a mountain, weighing on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"Good! I’ll kill him for you."
The middle-aged man nodded slightly, as if he were talking about something trivial.
"Immortal... are you serious?" Wei Shichang suddenly raised his head, asking excitedly.
"Heh! How could a boy of seventeen or eighteen be a Land Immortal? And what if he is? I can still cut him down!"
The middle-aged man laughed proudly, as the thick mist behind him quivered. Accompanied by a stroke of golden sunlight from the sky, it shone upon him, making him look as if a god descended from the heavens, leaving Wei Shichang completely dumbfounded!
"Come!"
The next moment, the middle-aged man beckoned with his hand, and a bolt of lightning streaked through the clouds, sending a golden War Token flying out, which, as if with eyes of its own, slowly landed at Wei Shichang’s feet.
Wei Shichang looked down to see that the entire token contained only one word: War!
The word "war" was written with sharp strokes, as if it were a sword, each line and stroke nearly bursting from the paper and plunging into the heart, causing Wei Shichang’s heart to race just at a glance, promptly turning his head away.
"Send this token to that Lin Fan for me. In seven days, I challenge him to a fight outside the Immortal Burial Valley!" the middle-aged man said indifferently.
"Immortal, with just this one word... will he come?"
Wei Shichang asked, somewhat uncertain.
"Rest assured, if he truly is a strong warrior, he will naturally come!" the middle-aged man laughed lightly, and with Wei Shichang watching respectfully, he retreated back into the depths of the mists.
...
Three hours later.
The War Token from the Immortal Burial Valley was delivered into Lin Fan’s hands.
The moment Lin Fan unfolded the War Token, a terrifying Sword Qi rushed forth, as if a Sword Dao Grandmaster was slashing a deadly blow at Lin Fan’s throat from just an inch away!
"Be careful, Alliance Hierarch Lin!"
Yuan Shiyin exclaimed in alarm.
The several Martial Arts Great Grandmasters around him were equally shocked. Who could have imagined that such murderous intent was hidden within a War Token?
If it were an ordinary Martial Arts Grandmaster at such a close range, caught off guard, they would likely have been decapitated by this fearsome Sword Qi already!
"Hmph!"
Lin Fan snorted lightly, fearless. A blue gleam shone at his neck as the Mana within his body condensed, enveloping his entire upper body.
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh——!"
"..."
Seven consecutive Sword Qis slashed out from the War Token, each capable of cutting down a Grandmaster!
In the midst of the astonished onlookers, a terrifying wave of energy erupted from Lin Fan’s body!
All the furnishings inside the great hall, porcelain, vases, tea sets, including the glass on the windows, let out a series of bursting sounds, the scene turning into utter chaos!
After the attack ended, the War Token was burned on the spot, turning into a pile of ashes!
"Alliance Hierarch Lin, are you alright?"
The old Grandmaster of the Huangfu family from Yong Province, Huangfu Xiaoran, stepped forward in surprise and quickly asked.
Several other Grandmaster Level powerhouses also gathered around!
"I’m fine."
Lin Fan’s face was expressionless; he was certainly unharmed, but this War Token had infuriated him on the spot.
Half an hour earlier, the Wei Family sent someone with this War Token, making sure to emphasize that it was delivered to Lin Fan by an Immortal from Immortal Burial Valley!
At that moment, Lin Fan was taking a walk in the park with Zhou Ling’er. Yuan Shiyin and others, upon hearing the three words ’Immortal Burial Valley,’ had their faces drastically change. They did not dare to delay and reported the matter to Lin Fan and waited in this hall for his return.
However, the moment Lin Fan came back and opened the War Token, the scene just now unfolded!
"This is terrifying! If not for Alliance Hierarch Lin’s great strength, just one of those seven Sword Qi could have killed a Grandmaster! Moreover, the distance was so close, less than two feet from the neck; any ordinary Grandmaster, upon opening the War Token, would have likely lost their head on the spot!"
"Even if you’re lucky and block the first strike, how could you stop the remaining six?" Yuan Shiyin’s old face was extremely unsightly as he felt relieved.
If it weren’t for Lin Fan’s overwhelming strength, he would probably be lying dead right now.
"Heh, Immortal Burial Valley!"
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a chilling coldness burst forth from his gaze!
...
Half an hour later, a piece of news spread swiftly through Jingzhou:
Seven days later, Huaxia’s youngest Grandmaster will challenge an Immortal from Immortal Burial Valley on its outskirts!
The news shook the entire Jingzhou! It was even more shocking than the news of Lin Fan killing Wei Rufeng a day earlier, to the extent that Wei Rufeng’s death was overshadowed and everyone was discussing the matter of Immortal Burial Valley.
"Is it true? Even the Immortals from Immortal Burial Valley are prepared to take action?"
Some billionaires worth hundreds of billions were astonished to ask.
"What place is Immortal Burial Valley?" Others asked in confusion.
"Immortal Burial Valley! It’s naturally where Immortals reside. It’s said that each Immortal there possesses the power to reach the heavens and pierce the earth... These are real living Immortals, but no one dares to truly enter the valley and disturb the Immortals there! Unexpectedly, the Wei Family managed to persuade an Immortal from the valley!" A billionaire explained, somewhat incredulously.
"Are there really Immortals in this world? Is that true?"
"Why don’t I believe it?"
Some people expressed their skepticism.
Seeing the crowd engaged in intense discussion, an old man quietly left the group. If anyone noticed, they would see that this old man was the one who brought up the topic of the Wei Family.
After leaving, the old man meandered into an alley.
Inside the alley, like him, there were over a dozen others, all disguised as people of different identities.
"How is the spread of public opinion going?" A figure stepped out.
"Although some are still skeptical, many people now know and believe in the event!" The old man straightened his back and his voice became youthful.
"Hehe! Well done, keep it up. The old master said that within seven days, we must push the public opinion to the peak, to let everyone know that the Wei Family’s supporter is Immortal Burial Valley. As for Lin Fan, he is just a pawn! Seven days later, as long as the Immortal from Immortal Burial Valley kills Lin Fan, my Wei Family’s prestige will reach a new height!" The man chuckled smugly.
"Lin Fan? He is merely a stepping stone for the rise of my Wei Family!"
Hearing this, the man disguised as the old man furrowed his brows!
"What? Don’t you believe it?" The man noticed his expression and his voice turned cold.
"This... Manager Zhou, what you said... If this young Grandmaster kills the Immortal from Immortal Burial Valley, wouldn’t that be..."
The man’s sentence was abruptly cut off by Manager Zhou’s blunt interruption.
"Nonsense!"
"The Immortal Burial Valley is inhabited by genuine Immortals. How could a mere young Grandmaster be compared with an Immortal?" Manager Zhou shouted angrily.
"Yes, yes, it was foolish of me to think too much," the man disguised as an old man quickly nodded.
He harbored deep doubts in his heart, wondering if what Manager Zhou said was true.
