Chapter 2139: Chapter 1637: The Same Primeval Culprit

A stone stirs a thousand waves!

Dao Yan seemed to feel something, and the tides began to rise.

Li Fan felt something was amiss, his spirit immediately tensed, always ready for Hai Zhen.

Fortunately, this unknown strange force only severed the head of the stone statue. It didn’t take any further action.

What Does Immortal was horrified, touching his own neck.

At the moment when the stone statue’s head fell, he seemed to be attacked as well.

What Does Immortal’s morality circulated, nearly perfect. He prided himself on being just one step away from the Realm of the Saint.

Yet facing that strange force earlier, it seemed he had no power to resist!

How is this possible?

Could it really be a Saint who struck?

“Can you grasp its source?” Li Fan asked gravely.

What Does Immortal gazed at the Mountain Sea, after a long while, shook his head and replied, “The coming is strange and ethereal… difficult.”

“Moreover, even if I could sense it, I wouldn’t dare delve too deeply.”

“Another version of me, though weaker, still retains the true meaning of morality. To transcend power, it’s extremely difficult to kill him.”

The meaning in What Does Immortal’s words was already very clear.

Yet Li Fan held a different opinion.

Even All-Knowing Immortal, who seemed to threaten the safety of the entire Mountain Sea, was not killed by all Saints, only suppressed within the Eternal Celestial Ladder.

Faceless Immortal, though lacking morality, had not committed any morally-degrading acts so far.

All Saints have no reason to strike.

“Aside from that, who else in the Mountain Sea possesses such strength?”

The two fell into a strange silence.

The sudden fall of Faceless Immortal completely disrupted their plans.

In a short time, What Does Immortal lost hope of proving the Dao, and Li Fan’s intention to glimpse the true meaning of morality was also lost.

With the unexpected situation, Li Fan felt both shocked and inexplicably angry.

“In the past, Faceless Immortal always lived well, but this time he died strangely. Is it related to the Primordial destruction or All-Knowing Immortal?”

“I can still sense that his immortal power remains on the Faceless Stone Statue…”

Li Fan couldn’t help but look suspiciously at What Does Immortal.

Seeming to perceive Li Fan’s doubt, What Does Immortal, helplessly, explained: “Morality circulates, unceasing life; this is our disaster-avoiding Divine Technique. Wherever we leave marks, there remain traces of moral breath. It can be seen as a special avatar we leave behind. If the true self unfortunately falls, but as long as these moral traces remain in the Mountain Sea, we can be reborn amidst destruction.”

“It should be this way.” What Does Immortal said heavily, his expression extremely ugly.

“Now, he’s dead.”

What Does Immortal pointed to the decapitated stone statue: “Although moral breath still circulates on it, it has lost the ‘main pillar’ that should have existed. Even if the moral air can revive itself in the future, he won’t come back.”

“This is truly death.”

Li Fan vaguely heard a hint of the sorrow of rabbits dying just like foxes and the hard-to-hide fear in What Does Immortal’s words.

After all, he and Faceless Immortal are two sides of the moral division.

That unknown strange existence, since it can kill Faceless Immortal, likewise can kill What Does Immortal!

“Striking down the true self while simultaneously erasing it as an individual from the Mountain Sea.”

“All the backhands ever arranged, in the moment he disappears, have nothing to do with him.”

“This is true obliteration!”

The means were certainly terrifying, but what makes Li Fan even more uneasy is its appearance without a trace and ethereal disappearance.

Li Fan had traversed almost a tenth of Mountain Sea. Coupled with the huge power of the Holy Dynasty spanning Mountain Sea, he could say there were few unknown realms in Mountain Sea for him now.

Originally, he thought so.

The mysterious appearance of the force that killed Faceless Immortal took him by surprise.

The scene was like every time he thought he had explored the secrets of the Xuanhuang World thoroughly, yet the Xuanhuang World could always bring him surprises.

More critically…

This force seemed very close to him!

If Mountain Sea is considered a pond that has gradually become familiar, now, deep within the pond lurks a terrifying beast that devours people.

No wonder Li Fan felt shocked and angry.

Not the strength of the other, but the unknown.

All Saints of the Other Shore, Taiwei Saint Emperor, though strong, Li Fan couldn’t provoke them yet could avoid them.

But fearing this kind, strong enough to threaten Li Fan, and always hiding in the dark.

If unlucky, Li Fan might one day crash into it while wandering Mountain Sea.

The unease in his heart was hard to suppress, Li Fan immediately made a decision: to seize the good opportunity with Faceless Immortal being killed by the opponent, some clues still remaining, and explore more information about the opponent as much as possible.

If not to fully understand the opponent’s identity, at least to ascertain the opponent’s general location in Mountain Sea. Until the strength is sufficient to avoid danger, try to walk around it.

Thinking this, Li Fan again looked at What Does Immortal, sneering: “You’re scared?”

“The chance to become a Saint is close at hand. Yet it’s severed by an opponent. As the saying goes, obstructing one’s Dao Path is akin to killing one’s parents.”

“You two, morality is one two-sided entity. His death is like your own death.”

“The one who kills your whole family is close, and you choose to escape?”

“Don’t even have the courage to pursue?”

Listening to Li Fan’s taunting words, What Does Immortal’s expression didn’t change in the slightest, remaining calm: “You can’t do anything against someone stronger.”

“If it were me, at least I’d find out the opponent’s identity. Otherwise, when strength is sufficient in the future and wanting revenge, without even being able to find a target, isn’t it tragic? I think, you won’t be so beaten by this setback, from then on losing spirit and even the thought of revenge, right?” Li Fan stared at What Does Immortal.
