Cultivation of immortality by toad starts with cultivating demons

Chapter 2024 One-Finger Annihilation, Yun Clan's Plan

"okay."

Mo Fan chuckled, breaking the slightly eerie atmosphere, and tapped his wine glass lightly with his fingertips. "From what you're saying, the Yun family is doomed."

He paused slightly, then slowly raised his index finger, a faint glow emanating from its tip, and pointed it directly at the wine in the bowl in front of him.

"In that case, let's just crush her to death."

The moment the words were spoken, the wine in the bowl suddenly froze, followed by a soft "crack" sound, and a thin crack appeared in the wine out of thin air.

At the same time, far above Wujiabao, the void in front of the Yun family suddenly twisted and tore apart without warning, and a pitch-black crack opened like the mouth of a giant beast!

Yun's pupils contracted sharply as a deadly sense of crisis overwhelmed her, and she instinctively tried to use her escape technique to retreat.

But at that moment, a cold and majestic word, "定" (ding), like heavenly music, yet also like a curse, exploded in her ears!

In an instant, Yun's blood and qi stagnated, and her soul seemed to be nailed to the spot, unable to move.

She could only watch helplessly as a glowing finger slowly emerged from the cracked void, carrying an unparalleled pressure, and pointed directly at her brow!

"die."

Mo Fan's whisper, like the whisper of death, pierced through space and landed in Yun Shi's ears.

The next instant, a sword aura of condensed power burst forth from his fingertips, silently piercing through Yun's head.

There was no blood splattering, no brains splattering; everything was eerily quiet.

"Ok?"

Mo Fan frowned slightly, his fingertips trembled, and he withdrew his strength.

A divine sense swept across the void, and saw that the Yun family's corpse did not fall down. Instead, it transformed into a yellowed talisman, which burned fiercely in the air. After a moment, it turned to ashes and disappeared without a trace.

"A substitute death charm..."

Mo Fan murmured softly, his previously calm gaze suddenly surging with a monstrous surge.

Immediately afterwards, a chilling killing intent swept out from his body, causing the temperature in the entire restaurant to drop several degrees.

He instantly understood all the key points.

From beginning to end, Yun Shi never really wanted to slaughter the Wu family. All her crazy actions were just to deliberately lure him into making a move!

What she wanted was to use her own hands to solidify the charge of "provoking the Ye family," thereby mobilizing the Ye family's true power to attack her!

What a clever trick to use someone else to do the dirty work! What a vicious heart!

"Young Master, how did the Yun family member suddenly turn into a talisman?"

Shen Fengyao's almond-shaped eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief and surprise. The image of the sword energy piercing through her skull was still vivid in her mind. How could such a bizarre change have occurred?

"It's a substitute death charm!"

Before Mo Fan could speak, Yuan Shan spoke up first, his tone conveying a sense of understanding, yet also a hint of barely perceptible seriousness.

"A substitute death charm?"

Shen Fengyao frowned, her eyes full of doubt, clearly having never heard of such a talisman before.

"This is a masterpiece created by human talisman masters in ancient times. It can use the power of talismans to die in place of its master, which is truly heaven-defying." Yuan Shan explained in a deep voice, his fingertips unconsciously rubbing his palm. "This talisman is already extremely precious, but a substitute talisman that can block a fatal blow for a Saint Venerable cultivator is even rarer. It is no exaggeration to say that it is priceless."

"Possessing this talisman is equivalent to having an extra life. I never expected that the Yun family would be able to carry such a treasure with them. It seems that the Ye family is truly extraordinary!"

Yuan Shan was not a native cultivator of the Azure Dragon Domain. Although he had heard of the power in this region and knew that the Ye family was the number one human power in the Azure Dragon Domain, he had never taken it to heart.

But now that he has witnessed the appearance of the substitute death talisman, his contempt for the Ye family vanished instantly, replaced by a heavy sense of apprehension.

A family that can casually produce such a precious treasure must have a foundation far beyond that of ordinary forces.

"Such a miraculous talisman exists in the world?" Shen Fengyao was dumbfounded, and murmured subconsciously, "It can actually shield someone from certain death, it's simply unbelievable!"

"Although the substitute death talisman is powerful, it is ultimately just a side path."

Yuan Shan changed the subject, a disdainful sneer curling his lips, "Only those with insufficient strength need to rely on such external objects to survive. For true top experts, such talismans are neither useful nor necessary."

"good."

Mo Fan nodded slightly, his tone calm and unwavering, "Although the substitute death talisman can take someone's place in death, it cannot protect the original body from harm."

"I have already sensed that even if the Yun clan member has survived by chance, he must be severely injured at this moment and will be unable to accomplish anything in the short term."

He tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, a barely perceptible hint of regret flashing in his eyes: "I was careless for a moment, I did not expect that she would have such a trump card. Otherwise, the moment she activated the substitute death talisman, I could have directly sealed off the entire airspace, leaving her with nowhere to hide."

Even ten substitute death talismans wouldn't be enough to save her at that time.

In fact, with Mo Fan's strength, even if the Yun family used a substitute death talisman, he could still use the Time Reversal Technique to rewind their state to before they were attacked, and then forcefully eliminate them.

But he didn't do that.

Firstly, time travel consumes lifespan, which would be too wasteful to use on someone like the Yun family; secondly, he also wanted to see how much trouble the Ye family behind the Yun family could cause, and he wanted to test the Ye family's bottom line.

If he had some reservations about the Ye family before, he no longer had any concerns now.

He wouldn't mind having a good showdown with the number one power in the Azure Dragon Domain.

It remains to be seen what choice the Ye family will make.

"Senior, you just said... Yun used a substitute death talisman. So, she didn't die?" Several Nascent Soul cultivators from the Wu family nearby heard the conversation and their faces instantly darkened, their brows filled with anxiety.

Through their previous confrontation with the Wu family patriarch, they already knew how crazy and ruthless she was.

Now that this senior has made a move, he has failed to completely kill him. Once the Yun family recovers, the Wu family will surely suffer her insane revenge at any cost!

"rest assured."

Mo Fan's voice was gentle yet carried an undeniable power, striking the hearts of the group like a reassuring pill: "Although she is not dead, she is severely injured and there is absolutely no possibility that she will attack the Wu family again in the short term."

He looked up out the window, his gaze piercing through the clouds, as if he could see the Yun family fleeing into the distance: "Even if the Ye family sends more powerful figures to attack, I will never sit idly by."

"Thank you very much, senior!"

The Nascent Soul cultivators breathed a sigh of relief, their faces beaming with smiles of relief. They quickly bowed and flattered, "With such a powerful senior here, the mere Ye family naturally can't cause any trouble!"

"You don't need to flatter me."

Mo Fan chuckled, his gaze sweeping over the slightly uneasy expressions of the group. He then changed the subject, saying, "If a Great Saint Realm cultivator from the Ye family were to personally intervene, I might not necessarily fight to the death with the Wu family for their sake."

The smiles of the Nascent Soul cultivators froze on their faces, and their hearts, which had just settled, jumped again.

"But you can rest assured." Mo Fan changed the subject again, his tone becoming more confident. "A Great Sage of such high status would not personally intervene in such a trivial matter."

Upon hearing this, the group finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the cold sweat on their backs quietly dissipated.
