“Yan Xiu!” Fang Zhengzhi could naturally sense Yan Xiu’s pain right now. Hence, because he could sense it, he knew what he should do.

He could not just watch as Yan Xiu in front of him. At the same time, he knew that Yan Xiu did not want to die in front of him.

Escape?

There was no way he could escape!

Hence, all he could do was to fight. He did not think; he did not need to think. All he could do was to kill without thinking. He would kill whoever dared to block him!

Shi Fan saw the expression on Fang Zhengzhi’s face. However, what he did not expect was that even after he stepped out, Fang Zhengzhi continued to look at Yan Xiu.

Was he being ignored?

This was the first time Shi Fan felt something like this. However, he did not give it much thought. After all, he would make the one who ignored him pay the price.

For example, Fang Zhengzhi who stood in front of him.

“I heard that you possess both the Heavenly Rebirth Dao and the Near-Life Dao. Furthermore, you can also use the Hell Near-Life Chains. Honestly, when I first heard this, I was surprised. So, do you know what Hell is like?” Shi Fan stopped when he was five steps away from Fang Zhengzhi.

At the same time, a sword appeared in his hands. The sword was completely black and without a single glimmer of light. It did not look like a weapon but instead, a shadow.

“Is this Shi Fan’s weapon?”

“He is using his sword at the start. It seems... he’s going to use his full strength!”

“Yeah...”

When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw Shi Fan unveil his weapon, they looked at each other. They knew a huge fight was at hand.

Fang Zhengzhi retracted his gaze. However, he did not reply to Shi Fan. Instead, he quietly looked at Shi Fan, as if he was looking at a fool.

“It seems that you don’t have...”

Before Shi Fan could finish, Fang Zhengzhi moved and instantly, he appeared in front of him as he stabbed at Shi Fan’s chest with his Traceless Sword.

From the beginning to the end, Fang Zhengzhi said nothing.

However, Fang Zhengzhi’s action told Shi Fan of a principle.

Attack and don’t waste time blabbering!

He stabbed forward with his sword and the purple light shone intensely. The dragon roar that came from it was ceaseless. Fang Zhengzhi did not use any fancy move and he did not hesitate because right now, all he wanted to do was to kill!

“Humm!” The sword hummed.

A demonic purple light flashed and the Traceless Sword pierced into Shi Fan’s chest like a bolt of lightning. Instantly, it pierced through his body.

“So fast!”

“It’s really too fast!”

“Impossible? Has it ended?”

When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw Fang Zhengzhi pierce Shi Fan’s chest, looks of disbelief plastered across their faces.

After all, they knew in their hearts that Shi Fan was known as the top genius of the Yin Yang Hall. One could not compare Yin Sen’s strength with his.

“It seems that you really want a quick death, so let me fulfill your wish, die!” Just when everyone was looking on in disbelief, a voice rose from behind Fang Zhengzhi’s back.

As the voice spoke, Shi Fan, who had been standing in front of Fang Zhengzhi, disappeared like a fleeting snowflake without a trace.

“It’s a faint shadow!” The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples realized what was going on.

If Fang Zhengzhi was fast, then, Shi Fan was even faster. Swiftly, he appeared behind Fang Zhengzhi.

“Swoosh!” A noise cut through the air.

Then, a black sword radiance which looked like a crescent moon shone from Fang Zhengzhi’s back. Shi Fan, like Fang Zhengzhi, did not hesitate as he attacked Fang Zhengzhi from behind.

Two rays of blue light shone at this moment.

One shone at where Fang Zhengzhi originally stood and the other one appeared above his head. At the same time, the tip of the Traceless Sword on top of Shi Fan’s head.

It was a blazingly-fast way to attack.

From the moment Fang Zhengzhi struck, to the moment when Shi Fan appeared behind him, to the moment where Fang Zhengzhi appeared above Shi Fan’s head, the time in between was way too little.

It was so fast until most people could not even see what had happened clearly.

However, a smile curled on Shi Fan’s lips. When he saw the tip of the sword appear above his head, his body disappeared from where it had stood.

Then...

An odd scene appeared.

The ground appeared to be hit by a heavy force. It actually split open instantly.

“Kaboom!” A huge sound.

The originally flat ground sank by one entire inch. At the same time, cracks appeared on the surface of the ground. It seemed to form some special diagram.

It was a very sudden scene.

It was so sudden to the point whereby Fang Zhengzhi did not even manage to rush out from the blue light.

However, the moment the diagram appeared on the ground, Fang Zhengzhi’s body fell down with a loud and heavy ‘thud’. He felt as if some force had dragged him down.

“Do you know what’s hell on earth?” Shi Fan’s figure slowly started to appear once again in front of Fang Zhengzhi.

When he appeared, eight balls of fire started to burn on top of the huge diagram. These eight balls of fire were not red, but peculiarly black.

“What is this?!”

“So strong!”

“He actually dragged Fang Zhengzhi down from the sky?”

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples looked at this scene in utter shock. They could not even speak. After all, it all happened too quickly.

“The Hell Dao of the Six Rebirth Dao Techniques!” Second Elder suddenly spoke. As he looked at Fang Zhengzhi, he inspected the huge diagram on the ground carefully.

“It’s the Eight Winters Hell! It seems that Shi Fan entered the Sage State via the Hell Dao!” The Fourth Elder nodded his head lightly as he spoke.

“Hell Dao?”

“So this is the Hell Dao?”

When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples heard the words of Second Elder and Fourth Elder, they all looked at the scene before them. They were all shocked.

The Six Rebirth Daos were originally the most supreme of the Great Daos.

Anyone who possessed one of the Six Rebirth Daos would be known as an absolute genius. However, to enter the Sage State with one of the Six Rebirth Daos was extremely rare, even in the entire Holy Region.

Shi Fan was one of the few people who made it.

“Fang Zhengzhi, to be honest, you should feel happy that you can die in my Eight Winters Hell as a Rebirth State cultivator. It’s really an honor!” When Shi Fan looked at Fang Zhengzhi once more, the murderous cold look in his eyes became more intense.

“An honor indeed...” Fang Zhengzhi slowly stood up. His body trembled because the powerful attractive force from the ground continually pulled him down.

“Oh? It seems that you have finally realized it?” Shi Fan appeared shocked because this was the first time Fang Zhengzhi had answered him. Furthermore, from his tone, he did sound proud.

“Yes, I’ve realized it,” said Fang Zhengzhi as he nodded his head lightly. He looked up to see the eight black balls of fire burning above his head and his crystal-clear eyes started to glow with light.

“Hahaha... too bad it’s too late. I won’t let you die so quickly. I’ll let you experience how Hell is like!” Shi Fan laughed extremely happily.

As someone who wielded the Hell Dao, he loved this feeling of passing judgment.

Like one of the judges of Hell from legends, in his heart, he felt that he was a judge in the mortal world. He controlled life and death and could determine who was evil and who was wrong.

When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples heard the exchange between Fang Zhengzhi and Shi Fan, they all fell silent. They knew that it was all over.

No matter how powerful Fang Zhengzhi was, no matter whether he wielded the Heavenly Rebirth Dao or the Near-Life Dao.

In front of him was someone who wielded one of the Six Rebirth Daos and used it to reach the Sage State. This disparity was obvious.

Many disciples slowly closed their eyes. They did not like Fang Zhengzhi, but they would still feel empty if they watched him die.

This was because of what Fang Zhengzhi had said earlier...

The real reason he died was that he was just a scapegoat.

It was a tragedy, which had happened many times in the Holy Region. However, it was also a fact, a fact that they could not change.

“Receive your judgment!” Shi Fan’s voice interrupted the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples’ thoughts. As his voice rang out, a ball of black fire descended.

“Whoosh!”

As expected, the black ball of fire landed on Fang Zhengzhi. Instantly, it ignited him.

As the fire burned, it sizzled and crackled. A look of extreme agony crossed Fang Zhengzhi’s face. His body started to twitch and convulse.

Beads of sweat trickled down his forehead.

Then, he was engulfed by another ball of black fire. This time, steam did not even appear. This black ball of fire stuck itself to his body. From inside out, it ignited Fang Zhengzhi. No matter how he tried to hit it, it was impossible to extinguish.

“There’s no use in struggling. This is Hell’s freeze burn! There are eight types of freeze burns and each of them represented a different type of pain. From your skin to your muscles, bones, meridians, blood, organs.... And this is just the beginning!” Shi Fan looked at Fang Zhengzhi, who was trying to pat out the fire on him, and his smile grew even wider.

“Eight types?” Fang Zhengzhi’s lips moved. A ball of black fire slowly appeared in his bright eyes. However, it was tiny compared to the black fire that burned around him. Naturally, no one noticed it.

Then, he started to roll around on the ground. As he rolled, he swatted the flames as he screamed in agony. He seemed to be in unbearable pain.

“Is your endurance this bad?” When Shi Fan saw how Fang Zhengzhi was suffering, he was slightly shocked. He did not expect this. He still wanted to play for a bit, but when he looked at Fang Zhengzhi now, it was clear that he could not hold out for long.
