Chapter 1408: Godmother

Jiang Fan, holding his sword, looked up at the sky and laughed heartily. Far from feeling fear, his eyes blazed with even greater madness.

He took out his last Wishing Paper and shouted:

"Restore all my lightning power..."

He intended to activate the Six Divisions Unison again!

To enter the Spirit Transformation realm one last time.

He would take as many of them as possible with him!

Seeing this, the Young City Lord's pupils constricted, and he yelled, "Stop him!"

Without needing a reminder, the strongest among them, the Three-Aspect Half-Giant, narrowed his eyes coldly.

He took a deep breath, then forcefully exhaled.

This was identical to the sonic attack technique previously used by the four-zhang Half-Giant.

While Jiang Fan's wish was still in the air, the terrifying sonic wave arrived instantly.

This was an attack from a Spirit Transformation expert in the Third Decline of Heaven-Man.

Jiang Fan, whose Nascent Soul power was completely depleted, could hardly even dodge, let alone defend himself.

In an instant,

The sonic wave was upon him, engulfing him with destructive power capable of shattering him to pieces.

Jiang Fan sighed inwardly.

It was still too late.

However, he was satisfied.

Before he died, he had taken down five Half-Giants in the Dharma Aspect realm; it wasn't a loss!

He smiled, calmly awaiting death.

But just as he felt his body about to shatter, a mirror appeared before him without warning.

The sonic wave struck the mirror and was immediately bounced back.

Caught off guard, the Three-Aspect Half-Giant was hit by his own sonic wave, staggering back several steps on the spot.

His expression hardened as he looked around, asking in a deep voice, "Who's there?"

Suddenly,

A massive mirror appeared directly above his head.

From the mirror, a dignified and elegant middle-aged woman, dressed in a magnificent black gown, flew down.

A divine halo with four flame marks hovered behind her.

Her mere appearance exuded a terrifying pressure.

With her phoenix eyes gleaming with menace, she stared coldly at the Three-Aspect Half-Giant and said in a chilling voice:

"You dare harm my son?"

Before her words even faded, her figure vanished instantly.

The Three-Aspect Half-Giant was greatly alarmed and hastily cried out, "Revered Lianshen, please listen to my explanation..."

Slice!

His head flew into the sky.

A sharp, edgeless mirror ruthlessly sliced across his neck, severing his head.

Blood gushed from his neck like a fountain.

The woman in the black gown said with an indifferent expression, "Explain it down there!

If she hadn't arrived in time, Jiang Fan would have already died!

How could she possibly spare this Three-Aspect Half-Giant?

Jiang Fan paused, gazing at the familiar figure, a deep warmth welling up in his heart.

It was Revered Lianshen, who had traveled across states to save him.

Logically, with such a major incident in the Seven Cities of Sky Abyss, the local Grand Wine Sacrifice or the Master of the Starry Mountain should have arrived first.

However, Revered Lianshen had arrived at Sky Remains City even before them.

It was evident that she had traveled at any cost to reach here before the local powerhouses.

Originally, Jiang Fan had felt quite resistant to calling her 'godmother.'

But at this moment, he felt an inexpressible sense of kinship.

In this world, the only female elder who would fight desperately for him was Revered Lianshen.

"Godmother!"

Jiang Fan called out with a smile.

Revered Lianshen instantly appeared beside him, first examining Jiang Fan and noting that he was only extremely weak, with no actual injuries.

Only then did she sternly ask, "Who told you to come to Sky Remains City?"

Was the Half-Giants' territory a place human cultivators could easily venture into?

Even in Tianzhou, Revered Lianshen had heard many accounts of the Half-Giants' misdeeds.

How could someone as cautious as Jiang Fan end up here?

Jiang Fan didn't speak but instead looked up at Kaiyang City, which was embedded in the city wall.

Following his gaze, Revered Lianshen's pupils sharply contracted.

The city full of scattered body parts and horrifying scenes of being gnawed on made even her, an expert in the Fourth Decline of Heaven-Man, cover her mouth in shock.

With a face full of astonishment, she asked, "What happened here?"

Jiang Fan's voice was low, "A Dharma Aspect Half-Giant imitated their ancestors' Great Hunt."

"This city, Kaiyang City, is just one of the cities that suffered."

"What?"

In Revered Lianshen's eyes, an uncontrollable murderous intent immediately flared, and she stared coldly at the Young City Lord!

No wonder Jiang Fan had come here.

Given his character, how could he stand idly by when faced with such a horrific and universally condemned tragedy?

The Young City Lord's hair stood on end under her gaze.

The person before him was Revered Lianshen, a renowned grand cultivator in the Fourth Decline of Heaven-Man from Shao Di Mountain!

His status as Young City Lord might not even register in her eyes.

He hastily said, "Revered Lianshen, please calm your anger. The Half-Giant responsible for the disaster has already been punished."

"Is that so?"

As Revered Lianshen scanned the area, her pupils contracted as she noticed five Dharma Aspect Half-Giant corpses lying on the ground.

She looked at Jiang Fan in disbelief and asked, "You killed them?"

Jiang Fan looked at the Young City Lord and the three remaining Dharma Aspect Half-Giants, a look of regret on his face.

"It's regrettable that my power wasn't enough to eradicate them completely."

The Young City Lord's eyes filled with hatred.

This bastard killed half of Sky Remains City's Dharma Aspect Half-Giants, and he still thought it wasn't enough?

Revered Lianshen froze for a moment, then slowly regained her composure, her beautiful eyes widening.

She gasped, "How... how did you do that?"

The last time, in Hunyuan State, Jiang Fan didn't have the strength to directly defeat a Revered One in the First Decline of Heaven-Man.

How long had it been, and he could actually kill five Dharma Aspect Half-Giants in the Half-Giants' stronghold by himself!

Had she adopted a godson, or a monster?

Jiang Fan wore a look of reminiscence and said, "It's a cultivation technique."

He recalled the feeling of temporarily breaking through to Spirit Transformation: the soul so powerful it could perceive everything, body movement comparable to teleportation, and the wondrous sensation of a domain controlling all things.

It left him with an endless aftertaste.

In just five breaths, he felt he had leaped beyond his current life level.

Becoming the master of all things.

After the five breaths ended,

Returning to the Nascent Soul realm, he felt a heavy sensation, as if burdened by shackles and with his senses sealed.

The vast contrast between the two made Jiang Fan look forward to Spirit Transformation even more.

"A cultivation technique?" Revered Lianshen exclaimed in surprise.

What kind of heaven-defying cultivation technique could enable an Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul cultivator to consecutively slay five Dharma Aspect Half-Giants?

However,

Now was not the time to chat about this.

She grabbed Jiang Fan's arm and said, "Let's leave Gui Xu State first."

"That Sky Remains City Lord is not someone easy to deal with."

As one of the Central Land's top powerhouses, she knew a bit about the Sky Remains City Lord's character.

Jiang Fan had killed so many Dharma Aspect cultivators from Sky Remains City; he had essentially stirred up a huge mess.

It would be useless even if he returned to Taicang State.

The Sky Remains City Lord would surely pursue him to Taicang State to make him pay.

For now, only by taking him back to Shao Di Mountain would the Sky Remains City Lord show any apprehension.

The Young City Lord grew anxious, blocking their path, and said in a deep voice:

"Revered Lianshen, is your Shao Di Mountain going to oppose our Sky Remains City for Jiang Fan's sake?"

Jiang Fan had killed so many Dharma Aspect cultivators, causing such a colossal disaster, and he still thought he could just leave?

Since the founding of Sky Remains City, it had never experienced someone breaking into the city and killing five Dharma Aspect cultivators consecutively.

This matter was simply earth-shattering.

The entire Half-Giant race was enraged!

Forget Revered Lianshen, even if a Great Revered One in the Fifth Decline of Heaven-Man came personally, they would not be allowed to take Jiang Fan!
