I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

The Thunder of Life and Death, the Immortal Spell from HeavenXiao Fan’s Cultivation reached the Middle Stage of Earth Immortal.

His Primal Elephant Micro-Particles also had an Awakening of two hundred million, bringing the total to six hundred and twenty million.

Not only that, he also comprehended the thunder method of Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength: Divine Thunder of Life, Death, Illusion, and Annihilation.

The Divine Thunder of Life, Death, Illusion, and Annihilation is a thunder that germinates; with a single thought, it can annihilate the Universe, or with a single thunderclap, all things can burst forth with vitality.

More importantly, the two words ’Illusion and Annihilation’ contain illusionary techniques.

Wherever the Divine Thunder surged, it could manifest everything imagined in one’s heart and drag the opponent into an illusion created by oneself.

This is a supreme offensive Divine Ability, and an incredibly profound illusionary technique.

“This session of Cultivation has been very fruitful, and my strength has advanced another level.”

He immediately summoned a Hell Demonic God, a Demonic God in the Late Stage of Taiyi True Immortal, whose breath contained myriad phenomena, and whose eyes were cold and murderous, yet in the face of Xiao Fan, it was submissive.

This was because the Demonic God saw the mark left by the Divine Elephant on Xiao Fan’s body.

“Defeat me, and I will grant you freedom,” Xiao Fan said indifferently.

The Demonic God’s eyes narrowed, and a muffled voice resounded:

“Truly?”

“I never lie,” Xiao Fan said.

“Good!”

The Demonic God unleashed its Divine Might and attacked Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan went all out.

He activated his Domain, Divine Netherworld!

Instantly, with him at the center, the space within a ten-thousand-mile radius was woven into a massive sphere, which continuously shrank until it was only ten zhang in diameter.

“What’s going on, I can’t move?” The Demonic God only felt difficulty in movement, as if its entire body and limbs were tied with billions of stars, so heavy that it couldn’t even wave them.

“Divine Thunder of Life, Death, Illusion, and Annihilation!”

“Freedom Illusion!”

Xiao Fan raised his right hand above his head, and instantly, a patch of dark thunderclouds rose in the sky, with specks of white light contained within the darkness, emitting bursts of roars as they flickered.

“Fall!”

A bolt of Divine Thunder fell directly, striking the Demonic God’s head. The Demonic God, who was still struggling, instantly had empty eyes, and its ferocious face also wore a triumphant smile.

It even let out strange cackling laughs.

“This Lord has finally escaped that damned Hell, this Lord is finally free.”

“Blood food, I haven’t been hungry for countless years, where is all the blood food, hehehehehe…”

Before Xiao Fan’s eyes, a light screen appeared, and the scene within was precisely the Demonic God escaping the shackles of Hell, roaming the world, and devouring countless living beings.

Not bad, the illusion it could create was quite strong.

Having tested its power, Xiao Fan was very satisfied.

“To thank you for verifying the thunder method for me, I will grant you a beautiful dream, and you shall pass away silently.”

It was still the Divine Thunder of Life, Death, Illusion, and Annihilation, but this time, what fell was not an illusion, but death. The Divine Thunder blasted onto the body of the Taiyi True Immortal Demonic God, and its body shattered inch by inch into dust, leaving behind only an indestructible skeleton.

But even so, the Demonic God’s face still bore a joyful smile.

“To die in joy, can be considered your reward as an experimental subject.”

After doing this, Xiao Fan waved his hand to disperse it, as if nothing had happened. That skeleton was also thrown far away into the nine heavens.

“With my current strength, using Divine Netherworld plus Divine Thunder of Life, Death, Illusion, and Annihilation, killing a Late Stage Taiyi True Immortal is no longer an issue.”

Xiao Fan stretched lazily, stood up contentedly, and walked out of his residence.

Walking through the palace, the Disciples and Elders of Yaochi Immortal Palace he encountered all bowed to him, more respectfully than when they saw Zhao Ling’er, the Goddess.

However, Xiao Fan noticed that something was amiss.

Why did all these Disciples and Elders have a look of worry on their faces?

“What’s wrong with you all? Has something bad happened?”

Xiao Fan stopped a beautiful female Disciple, who was only at the Earth Immortal Realm, but her assets were exceptionally ample. He definitely didn’t stop this female Disciple because he liked to look at balls.

Purely by chance!

When the female Disciple saw Xiao Fan, the only man in the Immortal Palace, and such a handsome one at that, a trace of unnatural shyness appeared in her eyes.

However, she also knew that this was the Palace Master’s man, and she dared not overstep, so she simply lowered her head and said:

“It’s all because of that Sacred Institute.”

“Young Master, you may not know, but our Eternal Immortal Domain is named Eternal because every ten thousand years, the Eternal Gate opens within the Immortal Domain.”

“The Eternal Gate is an Opportunity shared by all Cultivators in our Eternal Immortal Domain. The Dao lineages of many forces are obtained from the Eternal Gate. It can be said that more than half of the forces in the Eternal Immortal Domain have their Dao lineages from within the Eternal Gate.”

“A few years ago, Demonic chaos erupted frequently on the borders of our Eternal Immortal Domain. Under the leadership of the Sacred Institute, various forces reached an agreement: whoever contributed more military merits would receive more slots to enter the Eternal Gate.”

“The Palace Master alone defeated the Demonic Blood Emperor, contributing greatly. At this time, the Sacred Institute remained silent on the distribution of slots based on military merits, but instead changed its rhetoric, saying that for fairness and to balance the various forces, they needed to redistribute the slots.”

“The number of people who can enter the Eternal Gate each year is fixed. According to military merits, our Yaochi Immortal Palace should have at least fifty percent of the slots this time.”

“This sudden change is clearly because they saw our Immortal Palace occupying the majority, and the Sacred Institute was unwilling, so they allied with other forces to reduce our Immortal Palace’s slots.”

As the female Disciple said this, her tone was full of indignation, as if to say, ‘You don’t want our Immortal Palace to do well, do you!’

Xiao Fan listened, and he understood.

It was likely that the Sacred Institute never expected Yu Yue’s strength to be so formidable, capable of rivaling an army by herself.

“Where is Yu Yue?”

“The Palace Master is in the main hall.”

“I understand, you may go.”

“Yes.”

… …

Xiao Fan arrived at the main hall and happened to see Yu Yue looking troubled.

Upon discovering it was Xiao Fan, Yu Yue immediately rose to greet him, her displeasure vanishing.

She smiled and respectfully said, “Young Master.”

“What’s bothering you?” Xiao Fan walked over, took Yu Yue’s soft hand, and found a seat.

Yu Yue felt his warm palm, and her heart fluttered slightly.

“No need to hide it, I’ve already heard.”

Yu Yue smiled and said, “I just didn’t want to trouble Young Master, I had no intention of hiding anything.”

“What do you plan to do?” Xiao Fan asked.

Yu Yue did not hide anything and explained all her plans.

“Young Master, you once taught me not to try to reason with others. When the other party tries to be unreasonable, the best response is to beat them until they dare not utter a sound.”

“If I am stronger than you, then I am more in the right.”

“Young Master, am I correct?”

Yu Yue tilted her head slightly, her beautiful eyes gazing at him with affection.

“Well said,” Xiao Fan nodded.

“Oh, Young Master, a month ago, the Sacred Institute sent a message saying that in a month, they would invite various forces of the Eternal Immortal Domain to the Sacred Institute to discuss the allocation of slots to enter the Eternal Gate.”

“The time is almost here, should we go?”

Yu Yue sought his opinion. Even though she had been Palace Master for many years, in the days with Xiao Fan, she always acted according to his commands.

“Go, of course we must go!” Xiao Fan said affirmatively, “If we don’t go, how can we know who supports this decision of the Sacred Institute?”

“If we don’t know who they are, how can we make an example of them?”

“Understood,” Yu Yue nodded.

Xiao Fan pulled Yu Yue into his embrace. He definitely had to go to the Sacred Institute, otherwise, how could he harvest Ye Tian, and how could he smash the Sacred Institute?

Of course, this time Xiao Fan was not going to the Sacred Institute to reason, but to talk physics with the people of the Sacred Institute!

… …

On the other side, within the Sacred Institute.

The Cat Demon girl also received the news that the slots for entering the Eternal Gate were to be re-allocated.

She looked at the contents on the Jade Slip, and a look of disdain appeared on her face at the Sacred Institute’s casual breaking of the agreement.

“How despicable.”

‘I know you are very reasonable, but we will not be reasonable for now.’

‘I know your intentions are good, but let’s not start for now.’

“Yaochi Immortal Palace, how will you respond? But I, this kitty, really didn’t expect the Palace Master of Yaochi to be so strong. If only I had joined Yaochi Immortal Palace back then.”

… …

In Ye Tian’s Immortal Cave.

Ye Tian was comprehending a Divine Ability. He held a skeleton in his hand, at times frowning, at times relaxing, at times enlightened, at times perplexed, completely engrossed in comprehending the ancient scripture.

Suddenly, as if experiencing an Epiphany, he slapped his thigh forcefully.

“So this is a forbidden art, the Dead Silence Divine Thunder.”

According to the records on the skeleton, legend had it that this was a branch of the supreme great method, the Divine Thunder of Life, Death, Illusion, and Annihilation.

The Dead Silence Divine Thunder inherited the destructive power of the Divine Thunder of Life, Death, Illusion, and Annihilation. Although it was less than one percent of the original method, it could allow him to kill enemies across cultivation levels.

The more Ye Tian read, the more astonished he became. He practiced it a little.

A black Divine Thunder, containing destructive power and unstoppable force, began to brew in his palm.

The terrifying power emanating from it made his heart tighten!

He merely touched it lightly with his hand, and the Divine Thunder swallowed his finger. Fortunately, he retracted it quickly, otherwise, his entire arm would have been gone.

“What powerful might!”

He didn’t care about this small injury; instead, he felt incredibly moved.

“I am indeed the Child of Destiny; I can even pick up such a great method just by walking!”

“Hahahahaha…”

Ye Tian laughed heartily. This was a bone that fell from the sky when he passed by the Eternal Immortal City.

It landed squarely on his head. He had wanted to curse whoever was so inconsiderate as to litter.

But when he saw the text description on it, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Immortal Law from the heavens!

He quickly grabbed it and returned to his Immortal Cave to comprehend it, from which he gained insight into the Dead Silence Divine Thunder.

“Although the Divine Thunder is powerful, it also causes significant damage to the body. It requires half of one’s vital essence to unleash the Dead Silence Divine Thunder.”

“But it’s all worth it. The power of this Divine Thunder is enough for me to kill a Late Stage Profound Immortal Cultivator with one strike. I have gained another life-saving trump card, a killer move!”

If he had had this move back then, he wouldn’t have needed to fight Wang Teng to the death; he could have just sacrificed half his life and killed him.

Hmph, with this thunder method, who below the Profound Immortal Realm is my match!

Moreover, my strength has greatly increased. Which Saint Disciple of the Sacred Institute can surpass me? The other core Disciples, the so-called Prodigies, are nothing more than stepping stones for me.

A surge of arrogance rose in his heart. ‘I, Ye Tian, am the most dazzling protagonist of this era!’

Ye Tian walked out of his Immortal Cave, feeling that he had no rivals among his peers. A few days ago, didn’t a core Disciple want to challenge him?

Then it’s perfect, I’ll use you to test the power of this thunder method!
