Chapter 519: A Heart Bleeding

The Axe of Eternity was originally a divine artifact, but it shattered in a great war, and its artifact spirit was on the verge of collapse. After countless years of self-repair, it eventually revived, though its power was greatly diminished, no longer matching its former glory.

If classified by treasure standards, the Axe of Eternity would now be a top-grade Dao artifact, yet it lacks the functions of a Dao artifact, serving no purpose other than being indestructible.

"Refine, merge!"

"Ding, congratulations on successful refinement."

The "Heaven and Earth Furnace" shook, and the lid opened. A surge of razor-sharp energy burst forth, so keen that it tore countless fissures into the boundaries of the "Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain."

Void torrents surged wildly. Within the "Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain," the killing aura had vanished entirely, leaving only a single wisp.

Once Lin Fan absorbed this last wisp, the "Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain" would instantly collapse, never to exist again in the Ancient Saint Realm.

"Unexpectedly, even after merging, it's still a top-grade Dao artifact. It seems there are many, many fragments of the Axe of Eternity, not just this one." Lin Fan gripped the Axe of Eternity, his aura soaring like a peerless war god, his spirit piercing the heavens.

"Ding, congratulations on discovering the second form of the Heaven-Opening Three Forms: Annihilation. Would you like to comprehend it?"

"Comprehend."

Lin Fan smiled inwardly. Though the Axe of Eternity hadn't advanced, the fragment he obtained contained the second form of the Heaven-Opening Three Forms, which was still quite good.

And it made sense that the human race used this fragment to suppress the Green Saint Ancestor here, for this fragment might be the crucial part that the Axe of Eternity had lost.

At this moment, Lin Fan entered a mysterious and profound state.

In this state, Lin Fan once again saw the majestic, awe-inspiring giant. As the giant's eyes opened and closed, heaven and earth trembled, and a powerful aura swept across the entire world, pressing down on Lin Fan with an inexplicable force.

So strong!

The giant wielded the Axe of Eternity. With a single swing, heaven and earth were destroyed, all things dissipated, and the world became nothingness.

"Ha!"

A thunderous roar burst from the giant's mouth, instantly jolting Lin Fan awake.

"Ding, congratulations on comprehending the second form of the Heaven-Opening Three Forms: Annihilation."

"I didn't expect it to be this powerful." Lin Fan marveled, then his gaze shifted, and he swung the axe.

"Annihilation!"

The axe light blazed, and the entire "Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain" began to tremble violently. With one strike, the void split open, void torrents poured out, and the space of the entire domain started to collapse.

"Too fierce! With one blow, I've destroyed the Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain." Lin Fan was startled by the sight, then flickered and dashed outward.

"Boom!"

The surrounding void was collapsing, everything returning to nothingness.

Lin Fan looked back, stunned, but in an instant, his expression changed drastically, and he cried out in anguish, "Treasures..."

What Lin Fan hadn't expected was that, just before the Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain collapsed, countless treasures flew out from all directions.

"Damn, are the Ancient Clan all idiots? They've controlled the Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain for so long, how are there still so many treasures uncollected?" Lin Fan's heart was bleeding at this moment.

He watched helplessly as those treasures were annihilated by the raging torrents.

Even with his physical strength at the "Initial Azure Heaven Rank," he dared not go collect them.

Pain!

Deep pain!

At this moment, it felt like a sharp knife had pierced his heart—a pain beyond words.

If heaven gave him another chance, he would never be so reckless as to destroy the "Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain." He would stay there for a while and search properly. But now, it was too late to say anything.

Boom!

Now, the "Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain" collapsed like a tall building. The dimensional barriers shattered with a crackling sound, then slowly merged into a single point, finally exploding. A powerful shockwave surged toward him.

Gone without a trace, reduced to ashes.

From then on, the Ancient Saint Realm would no longer have the "Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain."

"It's gone!"

Lin Fan stood at the entrance, his heart aching as he watched the domain reduced to nothingness. He was filled with regret. The massive stone gate had also vanished, as if it had never existed.

"Sigh..."

Lin Fan sighed, looking helpless. Who could understand this pain?

But soon, he adjusted. "It's gone, so be it. Little爷 doesn't need those treasures to boost his strength. And destroying the Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain is a good thing—it prevents the Ancient Clan fools from using it to massacre the myriad races."

This time, he had followed them in and killed all those guys, but it was a pity that Mu Tian had escaped.

That guy still had a spirit vein in hand. Lin Fan didn't know what that spirit vein was or what use it had. He'd have to be careful in the future.

He had made his first enemy in the Ancient Saint Realm, but Little爷 wasn't afraid. In the Xuanhuang Realm, he had screwed over so many people and still fought his way through.

Just then, the void rippled, and a group of people appeared.

Lin Fan's expression tightened. He initially thought it was the Ancient Clan, sensing the destruction of the domain and coming to kill him. But when he saw who it was, he relaxed. It wasn't the Ancient Clan, but people from the myriad races.

"Stop! Who are you?" As Lin Fan was about to leave, a sword-wielding man among the group floating in the void asked sharply, his eyes fierce.

Lin Fan looked at the man in the void. He was imposing, with a straight back like a sword reaching to the heavens.

The man was surrounded by sword intent, clearly from the Sword Clan.

"And who are you?" Lin Fan frowned. The man was a bit arrogant, so he didn't bother to be polite.

"Hmph..." The man snorted at Lin Fan's insolence, and a powerful sword intent burst forth, enveloping Lin Fan.

"If you don't want to die, answer my question." The man said sternly, his gaze sweeping the surroundings.

But what surprised him was that the Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain had disappeared.

The group around the man, including men and women of various races, looked on with smiles, as if they didn't take Lin Fan seriously.

Lin Fan frowned, stepped forward, activated his True Law Seed, and unleashed the "Heavenly Sword." The sword intent behind him neutralized the man's.

"Oh?" The man exclaimed in surprise, showing some interest. "Not bad. But many capable people have died by my sword, Yan Jingtian."

"Brother Yan, this guy is acting suspicious. Why not capture him and let me use soul-searching to see what he's up to?" A seductive woman beside Yan Jingtian smiled lightly, a hint of cruelty flashing in her eyes as she looked at Lin Fan like prey.

"Haha, Sister Bai Ling's soul-searching technique is unparalleled. Anyone subjected to it will spill everything. We came for the Myriad Slaughter Ancient Domain, but now it's gone—quite strange. Clearly, this guy knows something."

"Right, he appeared here, so he must have come out of it. He probably got some treasures. Let's kill him and take his loot—that would be a happy event."

...

Hearing these words, Lin Fan's heart tightened. These guys were planning to kill him for his treasures.
