Chapter 736: The Great Dao Realm (Grand Finale)

  "I'm telling you again, anyone who dares to approach within five miles of me will die!"

  Fang Li's cold shout was extremely loud, and the new disciples were suddenly shocked. The smiling faces also froze. They clearly felt a strong killing intent rushing towards them.

  Liu Caiyu also jumped out and said, "Fang Li said not to approach, it means not to approach. Who dares to take another step forward? Don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword!" Although she didn't know why Fang Li wanted this, as a friend, Liu Caiyu unconditionally supported him.

  To enhance her intimidation, Liu Caiyu swung the long sword in her hand twice, and suddenly the wind howled and thundered. Countless terrifying lightning bolts appeared around her, waiting to be released. Those lightning bolts were like snakes, constantly making crackling sounds, with her as the center, the rocks and soil within tens of meters turned black.

  This move was far more astonishing than Fang Li's angry roar, and the power of a high-quality artifact was something that few people dared to ignore.

  Lin Changfeng saw this, bowed his head and pondered for a moment before drawing out his own sword. Suddenly, a strong flame burst forth. Then a strong gust of wind rose, the fire borrowed the wind's momentum, and in an instant it swept across the surroundings like a wildfire, startling everyone nearby.

  "Everyone, just give me a face and don't get close to Fang Li. There are at least tens of thousands of flying swords here, which should be enough for you to choose from." Lin Changfeng clasped his fists together and suddenly said something that shocked everyone. He had actually joined forces with Fang Li!

  "Lin Changfeng, what do you mean by this? Have you already forgotten that you were severely injured by him yesterday?" Originally, Yan Chongli was pleased to see Fang Li provoke public outrage, but unexpectedly Lin Changfeng jumped out, and his heart suddenly became displeased.

  Facing Yan Chongli's inquiry, Lin Changfeng smiled faintly, "Yesterday on the arena, we exchanged blows without holding back, injuries were inevitable. Besides, it wasn't a life-or-death battle, if I harbored resentment because of this, wouldn't that be laughable?"

  Lin Changfeng waved his sleeve, with a carefree and nonchalant expression. The people around him saw this and were left speechless.

  Yan Chongli didn't believe it, but he also didn't speak out against it. Saying more would only make others think he was narrow-minded and petty, which would only serve to highlight Lin Changfeng's noble character. "Noble character? Ha!" Yan Chongli thought to himself in disdain. Measuring others by his own standards, he wouldn't believe that Lin Changfeng could let bygones be bygones with just a smile, even if you killed him.

  Fang Li also looked at Lin Changfeng and frowned, "Why help me?"

  Lin Changfeng smiled and said, "Having one more friend means having one more path, having one less enemy means having one less obstacle. Does Fellow Master Fang think this is true?"

  He said this very calmly, without any pretentiousness.

  Fang Li was taken aback and couldn't help but look at him with new eyes. It's indeed a reasonable thing to do, but how many people can actually achieve it? Lin Changfeng could put aside his past grievances and take the initiative to make friends with himself, this kind of temperament is truly admirable.

  Fang Li even thought that if he were severely injured in the arena, would he be able to let go as easily as him? Maybe... it's really hard to say.

  "This matter, I'll take responsibility for it." Fang Li said calmly, and nodded his head at him.

  Just as Lin Changfeng said, having one more friend means having one more path. Who knows, maybe someday he'll be useful in some way. Besides, Fang Li and he didn't have any deep-seated grudges to begin with, and since the other party had already taken the initiative to make amends, how could he possibly refuse?

  Lin Changfeng's words had this effect, and those disciples did not dare to come forward again. Lin Changfeng was originally on good terms with them, so these people would naturally give him some face. Moreover, if they were really asked to provoke Fang Li, they wouldn't dare to do so either. Just now, being scolded by Fang Li had already made them feel guilty, and now they were just going along with the situation.

  "Alright, for the sake of Brother Lin's face, we won't take it that far. Otherwise, today would have ended in a big fight with him." Those new disciples went down the stairs, but still wanted to get some benefits from their words.

  Liu Caiyu heard this and was displeased. The two hadn't even gotten angry yet, but she immediately shouted: "A big fight? You think you have the ability for that? If Fang Li is willing, one move would be enough to take down all of you!" Liu Caiyu's eyes were filled with disdain. These people's strength was lacking, and they still liked to show off their eloquence, which was really detestable.

  "Liú Cǎi Yù, don't provoke us!" The new disciples immediately felt a bit embarrassed and glared at Liú Cǎi Yù with anger. Looking at the situation, it seemed that things were not going to end well.

  Fang Li originally thought that this matter would end like this, but unexpectedly, another storm arose in the end. Of course, he wasn't afraid, just felt it was troublesome. Even if Lin Changfeng didn't come out to persuade those disciples, Fang Li had many ways to make them leave. It's just that these methods were too violent.

  "What's wrong with you?" Lu Caiyu's temper also came up, "Don't think that letting Lin Changfeng persuade you is because I'm afraid of you. Today, I'll make it clear: whoever thinks they can beat me, come and fight, whether one or a group, I'll take them all on!" As soon as Lu Caiyu finished speaking, a loud explosion sounded, and countless lightning bolts burst out from the long sword once again.

  "How dare you! Come on, I don't believe this woman is that formidable!" Being scolded by Liu Caiyu like this, no one could bear it. Suddenly, a burst of clanging sounds was heard, and dozens of long swords were drawn out of their sheaths at the same time, and the battle broke out in an instant.

  Fang Li shook his head helplessly, and Liu Caiyu really knew how to get himself into trouble. He had originally wanted to let the matter rest and spend some time setting up the Water and Fire Arrays. However, it seemed that not taking action was no longer an option now.

  Of course, Fang Li didn't have any intention of blaming Liu Caiyu in her heart. She was angry because she couldn't stand those people shouting. Moreover, no matter what, this matter also originated from herself. If it wasn't for helping herself, Liu Caiyu wouldn't have conflicted with those people either. Just based on this point, Fang Li couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

  In the underground palace, Liu Caiyu looked at the dozens of cultivators in front of her, and she was also a little nervous. Although none of them were her match individually, it would still be difficult to guarantee that she wouldn't get hurt if she fought against all of them at once.

  "Up, she herself asked for it, even if it's noisy to the head of the clan, we're in the right." A short young man among this group of cultivators suddenly spoke up, and he was none other than Yan Chongli. At this time, he hid among the cultivators, his eyes viciously staring at Liu Caiyu, preparing to take advantage of her unpreparedness and sneak up on her with a sword.

  The conflict between him and Liu Caiyu was not just one or two days, but from the day he entered the sect, he had been enduring until now. Only, now that he finally had an opportunity, he didn't want to endure anymore. This opportunity was perfect, first, they were in the Sword Tomb, where the elders outside couldn't detect anything, second, there were so many people participating, even if he accidentally killed Liu Caiyu, no one would know who did it, and even if the sect leader wanted to blame someone, it wouldn't be possible to punish everyone at the same time.

  Thinking of this, Yan Chongli became even more fearless, like a poisonous snake, lurking and waiting to give her a fatal blow.

  Whoosh!

  It's unclear who made the first move, but with a sudden swishing sound, over ten long swords were thrust at Liu Caiyu. Liu Caiyu didn't dare to resist head-on and turned around to dodge, while at the same time, a thunderous sound came from her sword as it struck those people with a loud crash.

  Liu Caiyu's released lightning bolt shocked everyone, although there was only one, but it was as thick as a bowl, and if someone were to be hit by it, they would likely lose their combat effectiveness immediately.

  "Don't be afraid, let's resist together!" It was unclear who shouted this sentence, but the disciples immediately stabilized their bodies and directed all their attacks at the lightning.

  So many people's true energy gathered together, forming a strong light that rushed towards Liu Caiyu, several times stronger than the lightning.

  Liu Caiyu was shocked and lost color, not thinking that their true energy would gather together, this is not as simple as one plus one. Not daring to hesitate, she subconsciously rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding it. However, Liu Caiyu's body became a bit disheveled from this.

  Those disciples saw it and burst into loud laughter. "I really thought you were something, but when faced with our attacks, you still have to dodge?" The eyes of those disciples were full of provocative meaning.

  "You think you've got the upper hand and dare to be so arrogant? You're asking for death!" Liu Caiyu was furious, holding her long sword and charging forward on horseback. She had never been able to tolerate others' mockery, and this time she was truly enraged.

  However, this anger made her a bit irrational, and she actually charged in directly to fight them head-on! This way of fighting will definitely lead to exhaustion. Originally, if she had slowly circled around, looking for opportunities to strike individually, there was still a high probability that she could win, but now, it's likely that she'll reveal signs of defeat before long.

  Those disciples saw this and laughed even more happily. They said that the words were originally meant to provoke her, but they didn't expect Liu Caiyu to fall for it so easily.

  Yan Chongli hid in the crowd, his eyes involuntarily revealing a thread of excitement. He had initially been afraid that these people would not be able to defeat Liu Caiyu, but now he was at ease. He quietly took out a dark green long needle from his pocket and slowly approached Liu Caiyu. Since Fang Yi had used poison to defeat him before, now he would retaliate in kind, although it was on Liu Caiyu's body, it was still the same...

  "Haha, can't hold on anymore, one against a group, you're too out of your mind! If Fang Li didn't have that evil spirit controlling treasure yesterday, he wouldn't be our match either. And yet you still want to learn from him, truly seeking death!"

  Listening to the mocking voices around her, Liu Caiyu's face turned bright red. Alas, at this time she was already surrounded by them, like being trapped in a swamp, unable to escape. Although relying on the long sword in her hand could hold out for a while, but as time went on, she would undoubtedly be defeated.

  At this time, Yan Chongli had also arrived behind her.

  "Do you all want to die?"

  Suddenly a loud shout, it was Fang Li who rushed over, this time he was really angry. "You can shout, but you can't bully my friends!" Fang Li's face turned gloomy, and he immediately strode towards those disciples, "Bullying my friend in front of me, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

  He didn't want to cause trouble, and even wanted to save time by letting things slide, but seeing Liu Caiyu being bullied like this made him furious. Today, even if it meant not setting up the Water Fire Two Instruments Array, he had to give these guys a painful lesson!
