Chapter 58: Lishui Sword! Burning Heaven Sword

"Sect Leader Senior Brother! With the sect in such dire straits, how could we possibly leave like this! Although I harbor resentment toward the sect in my heart, I do not wish to see it destroyed just like this!"

Lin Fan took the wine gourd from his waist, drank a few mouthfuls, and then suddenly said coldly.

"Junior Brother..."

Sun Yiyang was momentarily speechless. Although Lin Fan was the Third Elder of the Divine Sword Sect, he usually paid no attention to sect affairs, and few people knew of the past grievances he had with the Divine Sword Sect.

But now that the sect was in trouble, Lin Fan had not abandoned it, which moved Sun Yiyang.

"None of you four are going anywhere!"

At this moment, the old man surnamed Jin let out a cold laugh. Sun Yiyang and the other three had just finished activating the Mountain Protection Array, and seven or eight tenths of the Spiritual Qi in their bodies had been exhausted, posing no threat to him at all. Glancing at the four, the old man surnamed Jin said:

"I will go and meet them first!"

As he spoke, the old man moved and charged toward Sun Yiyang! Watching the old man fly over, Lin Fan tilted the wine gourd in his hand sharply, and a stream of clear wine flowed out from the mouth of the gourd. However, this wine did not fall to the ground, but instead condensed into a long sword in front of him!

The entire body of the long sword was like water, and the constantly rippling waves made the sword blade appear somewhat shimmering and blurred!

"Lishui Sword!"

Sun Yiyang looked at Lin Fan in surprise. How many years had it been? Because of a knot in his heart, Lin Fan had always refused to use this sword, but now, to protect the sect, he had actually used the 'Lishui Sword!'

Shi Liang and Xiao Jingxuan also brought out their Magic Treasures one after another. Xiao Jingxuan flipped her jade hand gently, and a small red sword about an inch long appeared in her palm. A layer of dark red flame burned on the blade, faintly emitting a strange aura.

"Burning Heaven Sword!"

Lin Fan turned his head to look at the Magic Treasure in Xiao Jingxuan's hand, his thoughts a tangled mess. His 'Lishui Sword' and Xiao Jingxuan's 'Burning Heaven Sword' were originally a pair of Magic Treasures, and it was precisely because of this pair of treasures that he had developed a conflict with the sect!

"Junior Brother! After today, perhaps none of us will have a chance to survive! Can we not put aside our years of grievances?"

Xiao Jingxuan's voice suddenly became soft as she spoke.

"Rest assured, Senior Sister! If I still harbored resentment toward the sect, I would not have brought out the 'Lishui Sword'!"

Grabbing the 'Lishui Sword', which was a full four feet long, Lin Fan said with a smile.

At this time, the old man surnamed Jin had already arrived in front of the four. His sharp gaze swept over the two swords, and he knew they were no ordinary objects. Suddenly, he opened his mouth wide, and a small black banner flew out. The small banner was only three or four inches at first, but in the blink of an eye, it transformed to a height of a zhang.

As the old man shook it in his hand, sounds of ghosts wailing came from the surface of the banner, and at the same time, countless ghosts swirled rapidly around the giant banner, the aura of death gradually shrouding the surrounding space.

"Let me show you the power of my 'Ten Thousand Ghost Banner'; perhaps the Golden Core stage souls of you four will also be collected by it!"

The old man gave a sinister laugh and shook the 'Ten Thousand Ghost Banner' with one hand. Immediately, thousands of vengeful spirits swarmed out from the banner and lunged toward Sun Yiyang and the other three!

"Three Junior Brothers, be careful! This person is actually using such a vicious Magic Treasure; he is definitely not a good person. Kill him with all your might!"

Sun Yiyang warned in a loud voice while dodging the incoming vengeful spirits.

At this moment, Lin Fan and the others had already made their moves. Sword light flashed in mid-air, and the sound of ghost wailing chilled the hearts of those who heard it. Xiao Jingxuan's 'Burning Heaven Sword' had already transformed to half a zhang in size, and the flames burning on the sword blade were over a foot high. The giant flame sword slashed and hacked across the sky, chopping the vengeful spirits released by the 'Ten Thousand Ghost Banner' into pieces!

At this moment, a red figure rushed to Xiao Jingxuan's side in an instant. Before the escape light had even faded, a blood-colored long blade over three feet long slashed toward Xiao Jingxuan!

"Senior Sister!"

Lin Fan, who had been using his 'Lishui Sword' to slay vengeful spirits, shouted out loud upon seeing this scene. Seeing that Xiao Jingxuan did not have time to defend, the long sword in his hand suddenly turned into a beam of water light and struck the Blood-colored Long Blade with incredible speed!

"Boom!"

The two Magic Treasures collided, and blood-red light and water-colored light scattered in all directions. Due to this strike, the Lishui Sword was shattered, turning into specks of water vapor that floated in mid-air.

However, Lin Fan was not worried. With a surge of Spirit Power in his palm, the shattered 'Lishui Sword' condensed once again in his hand.

At this moment, Xiao Jingxuan seized the opportunity and moved to a safe place, while the red light that had attacked her revealed its true form—it was the man surnamed Chi.

"Interesting!"

There was a trace of surprise on the man surnamed Chi's face. The 'Lishui Sword' had clearly been destroyed just now, but in the blink of an eye, the long sword had appeared in Lin Fan's hand again!

"Ah!"

A long roar came from Sun Yiyang's mouth. He was entangled by thousands of ghosts, and although sword Qi surged from his hands, he was still unable to break free.

If it were before he had activated the Mountain Protection Array, dealing with these ghosts would have been effortless for Sun Yiyang, but because he was the main force in opening the array, his consumption of Spirit Power was the greatest.

The little remaining Spiritual Qi in his body made him afraid to squander it recklessly, and he was timid and cautious when attacking, narrowly escaping danger several times and almost getting hit.

"Sect Leader Master!"

Xiao Jingxuan exclaimed. She wanted to rush over to help, but there were too many ghosts attacking her, and she could not spare herself while driving the 'Burning Heaven Sword'.

At this time, a smile appeared on the face of the old man surnamed Jin. His 'Ten Thousand Ghost Banner' had absorbed the souls of countless cultivators, many of whom were at the Golden Core stage, so its power was naturally not weak. Even if the man surnamed Chi did not make a move, it could entangle the four for a while.

Shi Liang, who was closest to Sun Yiyang, was flustered and panicked at this moment. He only wanted to break through the encirclement and flee. He held no hope against the three experts on the black cloud. If Sun Yiyang were at his peak, there might have been a glimmer of survival, but Sun Yiyang was at the end of his rope; it looked like he would fall within an hour or less!

Lin Fan saw all of this in his eyes. A sneer of contempt appeared at the corner of his mouth. He did not call out or expose Shi Liang's intentions, but simply looked at the 'Lishui Sword' in his hand. In an instant, he let out a long sigh, and with a slight movement of his lips, he sent a voice transmission to Xiao Jingxuan!

Xiao Jingxuan, who was doing her best to slay the surrounding ghosts, was slightly startled when she suddenly heard Lin Fan's transmission. However, a moment later, she exerted her strength to drive the 'Burning Heaven Sword' to carve out a gap and arrived at Lin Fan's side.
