Sword Aura to the Heavens-Chapter 416 - 411: Ascending to Heaven

Li Fan stared above. At the top of the steps, Li Dao Ya's daoist robe fluttered, his eyes calm and unperturbed.

The wind blew, causing Li Fan's eyes to reveal a strange color, as if the wind concealed a dao intention.

He looked into Li Dao Ya's eyes, only to find that pair of eyes unfathomable, seemingly containing mountains and rivers, and sometimes the sun, moon, and stars.

"Dong."

Within Li Fan, his blood and qi roared skyward, a dragon's roar emanated from his body, a vast force swept upwards, and there was Sword Intent enveloping the world, rising with the wind.

At this moment, a powerful sense of gravitational pressure attacked, as if a weight of ten thousand pounds fell on Li Fan, causing his intended steps to hesitate.

In front of him, a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon appeared, with mountains and rivers emerging between the sky and earth, the booming sound of mountains crashing from above Li Fan's head.

With a thought, Li Fan raised his hand and pointed, instantly, with his body as the center, ten thousand swords danced, transforming into brilliant beams of light that blasted towards the falling rocks.

The sound of explosions echoed continuously from the sky, distant majestic palaces seemed to shake, and the ground beneath everyone's feet also trembled.

Li Fan continued to ascend, but he felt the entire space oppressed by an overwhelming force, including his own body, as if he had entered the other's Dao Domain, where Tao Power was omnipresent.

If it were any other cultivator within such a Dao Domain, their power would be greatly limited, their speed suppressed, and their physical body oppressed, making movement difficult.

But he was originally cultivating Martial Arts; his physical strength was formidable, dragon roars shook the heavens, and a golden giant dragon coiled around his body, taking steps upwards.

Li Dao Ya's body remained unmoved; he stood aloft on the steps, his hands forming a Dao Seal, with the sound of tiger roars and dragon chants resounding through the heavens, enormous demon silhouettes appeared above his body.

Dragon, Tiger, Phoenix, Black Tortoise.

A clear phoenix cry sounded, and immediately Phoenix True Fire rushed towards Li Fan, the scorching heat causing the sky to burn, lighting up the formations on the steps with a fiery red glow, as if intending to burn away everything in the world.

Beside him, the Demon Dragon spewed thunder, violent purple divine thunder like a sword of destruction, stabbed down upon Li Fan's body.

"Boom boom boom..." Fierce explosive sounds echoed, the purple giant thunder and Phoenix True Fire simultaneously fell on the giant dragon coiling around Li Fan's body.

"Daoist Skills are myriad and all-encompassing. The White Jade Academy still harbors such a person?" someone whispered, having only heard of Xiao Lv's unparalleled Daoist skills, yet Li Dao Ya was also so, though he was little known.

"He seems adept at various attribute Daoist skills. What is his Dharma Form?" someone asked in confusion, as Li Dao Ya stood quietly, revealing nothing of his Dharma Form.

True Fire and thunder continuously impacted the golden giant dragon, yet Li Fan did not retreat, and with a thought, a massive Sword Formation Map appeared behind him, with flickering thunder roaming the sky, Sword Aura howling, a destructive Sword Dao aura emerged.

"Power of the Sword Domain." The crowd sensed that power, their hearts startled by Li Fan's combat strength.

Within the enormous Sword Formation Map, countless sword lights shot forth, colliding with the purple thunder and Phoenix True Fire, his body floated up to the same height as Li Dao Ya.

"What Sword Scripture is this?" someone asked, despite their vast knowledge, still unsure of the Ancient Sword Dao Scripture Li Fan cultivated.

Even Guan Shanyue was defeated under the opponent's Sword Dao.

This Sword Scripture forms a sword array with a single thought, with potent attacking power.

At that moment within the enormous Sword Formation Map, countless sword lights shot forth, with thousands of flying swords howling, heaven and earth filled with killing intent, with the Sword Intent flowing over the White Jade Academy seeming to harbor murderous intent.

"Is this, Destruction Sword Dao?"

Li Dao Ya waved his hand, a giant white tiger silhouette obscured the sky, pouncing forward, a murderous aura swept towards the sky-filling flying swords, and simultaneously behind him, Li Dao Ya moved a single hand in the air, with a giant Black Tortoise in front, which transformed into a Black Tortoise Formation.

When the Sword Aura annihilated the white tiger's massive body, Li Dao Ya raised his hand to strike, a colossal Black Tortoise Formation pressed forward, transforming into a sky-covering, earth-shattering large seal, crushing everything.

"This is the Black Tortoise Seal."

The cultivators of the White Jade Academy stared dumbfounded at the scene before them; the Black Tortoise Seal was not a Secret Technique within the academy; students could observe and cultivate it, yet they saw for the first time the Black Tortoise Seal possessing such power.

Black Tortoise as the lead, it transformed into a Black Tortoise Formation, suppressing and killing all.

The swords aimed at Li Dao Ya were utterly shattered; within the massive Sword Formation Map behind Li Fan, a gigantic sword appeared, with a terrifying black evil aura, aiming to destroy everything, slashing towards the Black Tortoise Seal.

The moment they collided, both the Black Tortoise Seal and the giant sword fractured, exploding midair.

Li Dao Ya's body soared skywards, with Li Fan following suit, both arriving aloft the White Jade Academy, where in the sky, the wind and clouds surged, Sword Aura roared, and thunder akin to heavenly tribulation.

"Boom ka..."

The sky manifested divine thunder, and the crowd looked up to see the sky above their heads seemingly forming a chasm, the rolling heavenly thunder appearing controlled by Li Dao Ya.

"Is this, the Taoist Body?"

Even the cultivators of White Jade Academy were shocked as they watched the scene before them; such heavenly might seemed akin to that of a great cultivator of the Seven Realms.

Amidst the celestial thunder of the sky, chains of thunder appeared, heading toward Li Fan's body.

This spell was also part of the Thunder Skills in the Book Collection Pavilion of White Jade Academy, but did it have such power?

The thunder chains swept toward Li Fan. With a thought, the golden dragon roared, growing even larger. The chains coiled toward the massive body of the golden dragon, attempting to engulf it.

The golden dragon carried the chains into the sky, while the Sword Formation Map continued to expand. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Buzz…" A flying sword soared out from within, followed by a second, a third…

Li Fan waved his hand, and a flying sword pierced through the air, vanishing from sight.

"Boom." A loud crash echoed as the flying sword struck a golden barrier, producing a sharp, ear-piercing sound. Before Li Dao Ya, the golden barrier acted like a shield, blocking the sword.

"So fast…"

The crowd trembled, their eyes barely able to keep up with the speed of the sword.

Li Fan continued to wave his hand, releasing the second sword. Li Dao Ya's body shifted rapidly, like lightning.

But then, the third and fourth swords followed. In the blink of an eye, dozens of flying swords pursued Li Dao Ya with lethal intent, as if he would be slain instantly if he faltered.

The thunder chains had already bound the golden dragon and now coiled around the massive Sword Formation Map.

Li Fan moved, stepping forward. The golden dragon and Sword Formation Map vanished, a bolt of lightning appearing. Li Dao Ya seemed to sense a hint of danger, and a golden barrier appeared before him. A cracking sound echoed as if heavenly light had cut into the barrier — it was sword light.

The sword sliced through space, leaving Li Dao Ya's body as a lingering shadow, vanishing from the spot. Li Fan's body and the sword light merged, seemingly faster than light and shadow.

"Boom…" The thunder chains continued to coil toward Li Fan, but his figure vanished once more, and a glimmer appeared before Li Dao Ya.

This time, Li Dao Ya did not evade. He seemed to realize that Li Fan's sword was even faster than his movement technique.

With the Black Tortoise for protection, the sword struck the Black Tortoise, carving open a gap and sending Li Dao Ya flying.

Just as Li Dao Ya was about to unleash another Daoist skill, he saw the endless golden chains blotting out the sky, sealing the space around him, then coiling toward his body.

Behind Li Fan, a True Dragon encircled him. The Sword Formation Map reappeared, and the space turned into his Sword Dao domain. A killing intent filled the sky, descending swords fell, and Li Fan hovered in the air, no longer brandishing his sword.

Li Dao Ya also ceased his Daoist skill, looking somewhat bewildered at the figure before him.

The outcome was decided.

He willed, and the Daoist skill dissipated.

At White Jade Academy, countless gazes were fixed in that direction, a moment of silence. They, too, knew that Li Dao Ya had lost. He was entirely within the realm of Li Fan's Sword Dao, and earlier, he could not defeat Li Fan. In such a situation, there was no turning back.

"Martial, Spell, Sword?"

The crowd was somewhat dazed. He also refined Qi and was skilled in Daoist skills.

The pervasive Sword Intent dispersed, and the two figures floated, with Li Dao Ya stepping aside, making way.

Li Fan's form drifted forward, then landed atop the staircase.

Countless people watched the figure standing high, their hearts unable to calm for a long time.

Today, all sect prodigies inquired about the Dao at White Jade Academy.

At first, not a single victory, all defeated by the disciples of White Jade Academy.

Until he appeared, not only to inquire about the Dao but to ask about the Dao of White Jade Academy.

Three victories, ascending to the top.

From this day forward, the Great Li World will sing of his name.

In the sky above White Jade Academy.

Today, a sword cultivator ascended to the heavens.

"The junior seeks to inquire about the Dao of White Jade Academy." A voice came from the staircase where Li Fan stood; hearing it again, it resounded like the sound of the Great Dao, echoing in hearts.

Inquiring about the Dao of White Jade Academy.
