Aside from not being able to directly exchange evolution rate, talent, or psionic energy, you can basically exchange everything else.
But the cost was too high!
If his evolution rate and immortal cultivation hadn't been constantly increasing, and his lifespan hadn't been constantly growing, he would have already killed himself!
Now that he has reached the Nascent Soul stage, the amount of lifespan he needs to sacrifice to gain more cultivation is increasing.
He estimated his limit to be around the late stage of the Returning to the Void realm—once he reached that stage, even if he used up all his remaining lifespan, he probably still wouldn't be able to advance to the Integration realm... and even if he could, it would be a very difficult feat.
Going any higher... even if he kills himself with money, he still can't level up.
As for his own cultivation... with his original talent for immortality, it's uncertain whether he could even reach the Void Returning stage. His path of cultivation on his own had long been blocked.
The player's path... is almost at its peak.
Although he could exchange his life for various items and potions, the price of getting super A items was too high. Without super A items, he wasn't confident he could make a big splash in the A-level secret realm and quickly advance to S-level player... No, even with super A items, it wouldn't work. A-level secret realms basically restricted the use of items, and he had to rely on his own abilities to clear the levels.
His ability to quickly pass through C and B level dungeons and rapidly advance to A level player was largely due to the advantage of items—in most cases, he relied on high-level items to force his way through.
He wants to advance to S-rank player entirely on his own... It's impossible without seven or eight years, and there's also the high risk of perishing in a secret realm along the way.
How can this work!
He's gotten used to being a peerless genius; he can't go back.
Moreover, once his rate of growth stops... those who support him might become suspicious and lose faith.
A player-centric system is not something we can rely on in the short term.
We can only rely on the immortal cultivation system.
So... he set his sights on Yu Xuezhao, who happened to be engaged to him.
Yu Xue Zhao possesses truly unparalleled talent, and not long ago, he exchanged for the memory experience of a powerful member of the Hehuan Sect. This memory contains a very powerful cultivation technique that can gradually plunder a small portion of the immortal talent of the target.
The only drawback is that this technique only works on those with exceptional talent—after all, it can only plunder a small portion of talent, and if used on an ordinary person, the talent plundered would probably be inferior to their own.
Yu Xuezhao is a perfect target for plunder.
Even if only a small portion of his talent could be plundered, it would be enough for him to quickly cultivate and ascend to the Immortal Realm.
As long as he can increase his lifespan through cultivation, that will be enough for him to continue taking the supplements.
Moreover... only someone as blessed by heaven as him deserves to have a woman like Yu Xue Zhao, who possesses such ethereal beauty.
Although this woman is very ungrateful, ... for the sake of her talent in the immortal path, I'll just have to tolerate her for now.
There will be plenty of opportunities to deal with her later!
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Lin Fan raised his voice and said, "The Yu family of Bei Lin is ungrateful! They have gone too far! Yu Xue Zhao used the guise of an apology to humiliate me with some worthless resources. My direct refusal and resistance played right into her hands, giving her a legitimate reason to draw her sword and the opportunity to cruelly sever my limbs... This humiliation must be avenged!"
“She, Yu Xue Zhao, is unwilling to marry me, but I will not grant her wish. I will defeat her head-on and force her to fulfill the marriage contract.”
"I'd like to see if she'll act like a coward who breaks the bet after I defeat her, making herself a laughingstock in the entire Heavenly Sword Sect!"
In fact, the resources Yu Xuezhao provided him were not only not bad, but quite abundant.
But what he was after wasn't a few resources, but Yu Xuezhao herself.
If he doesn't turn the tables on them, he can't claim the moral high ground.
"Lin Fan, you don't need to worry about Yu Xuezhao not fulfilling her promise. She is a proud and arrogant person. The fact that she dared to come to the life-or-death arena today proves that she has already accepted the bet."
Sword Clan Master Xu Tianjian laughed, "As long as you can beat her, she will definitely fulfill the bet and marry you, as arranged by her family. Even if there's just one chance that she might break the bet..."
Xu Tianjian's smile turned into a sneer: "Heh, with all of us here, what can a mere elder from the Enforcement Peak do to rebel and cheat?"
He exuded a strong sense of confidence in every gesture.
This confidence comes not only from himself, but also from the many supporters behind Lin Fan.
Within the Heavenly Sword Sect, there are four secret realm masters who support Lin Fan, including him, and all of them are Heaven-level secret realm masters.
Besides, most of the elders of the Sword Clan stood on Lin Fan's side.
Even many elders of the Array Dao lineage, led by Array Immortal, supported Lin Fan.
There are eight Grand Elders among them.
In addition, there are two patriarchs who have transcended tribulations.
as well as……
Sword Clan Master Xu Tianjian glanced at the young girl sitting not far away, then looked away and continued to say to Lin Fan, "Don't forget that matter."
"Master, please rest assured," Lin Fan said with a smile, "How could I forget what you instructed me to do?"
At this point, he also glanced at the seated girl—Meng Zhiying.
To be honest, he didn't really like Meng Zhiying, who was only slightly pretty and spoiled, but what could he do when her grandfather was a renowned Mahayana cultivator?
His name was Blood Sword Ancestor, and his Blood Immortal Sword Technique was so powerful that people would turn pale at the mere mention of his name.
The lineage leader Xu Tianjian and the two sword lineage ancestors who had transcended tribulation were very eager for the Blood Immortal Sword inheritance of the Blood Sword Ancestor, which is why they treated him differently and took him as their disciple—all of this was naturally orchestrated by him taking advantage of the situation.
His acquaintance with Meng Zhiying, the most beloved granddaughter of the Blood Sword Ancestor, was not a coincidence, but rather a plot deliberately staged by him in his evaluation of "the memory experience of the strong".
"Lin Fan, are you confident of victory?"
At this moment, one of the two Transcending Tribulation Ancestors sitting cross-legged in the air suddenly asked a question.
Lin Fan replied respectfully, "Reporting to Ancestor Qingming, there are no restrictions on the methods used in this duel. Neither the players' techniques nor the cultivators' divine weapons are subject to any limitations. With such a desperate effort, Lin Fan is confident of victory! However, the subsequent discussions and comments from the crowd regarding the use of divine weapons..."
"There's no need to worry about this. Yu Xuezhao is a prodigy nurtured by the Yu family with all their might. She has had countless resources since childhood, and can have any divine weapon she wants. It's unfair to you. If you defeat her with the power of a divine weapon, no one will say anything."
The Transcending Tribulation Patriarch said, "Go ahead and do your thing. If there is any injustice, we will stand up for you."
"Thank you, Master."
Lin Fan nodded respectfully.
His raw strength was inferior to Yu Xuezhao's, but he had already asked Meng Zhiying to obtain the most powerful natal magic weapon, the "Blood River Sword," from the Blood Sword Ancestor.
How powerful is the natal magic weapon of the Mahayana patriarch!
Even if he only uses his late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation to unleash power, it would be something that even an S-rank player couldn't contend with.
This is sure!
At this moment, Meng Zhiying stood up, moved closer to Lin Fan, and dramatically punched Lin Fan's chest with her fist, then said encouragingly in a pretentious manner, "Brother Lin Fan, keep it up!"
"Zhiying, get ready to celebrate for me."
Lin Fan replied with a confident smile.
After saying this, he leaped up under everyone's gaze and landed on the deathmatch stage in a very stylish manner.
Yu Xuezhao had already arrived.
And they were getting a little impatient... or rather, they were getting a little impatient from holding it in.
Lin Fan glanced at the longsword hovering beside Yu Xuezhao, which was faintly glowing with a scarlet aura, and asked in surprise, "Senior Sister changed her weapon?"
"Senior sister, you are not qualified to call her that."
Yu Xuezhao's eyes were icy cold.
She glanced sideways at the cultivator in charge of officiating the life-or-death duel, signaling with her eyes that she could call it a start.
"Senior sister is really impatient," Lin Fan laughed. "The conflict between us isn't actually that big. This duel was just about regaining my dignity as a man..."
"start!"
Yu Xuezhao was considered the goddess of the male cultivators on the Enforcement Peak. As one of the elders of the Enforcement Peak, the referee cultivator couldn't stand Lin Fan's talkative attitude and immediately shouted "Start!"
Lin Fan: "..."
The next instant, before Lin Fan could even process his speechless feelings, he felt intense tearing pain in his limbs.
Yu Xue Zhao has made her move.
With a speed that left him no time to react, the Immortal Execution Sword unleashed four crimson sword lights, instantly destroying his limbs.
This time it's not just a complete severance.
Instead, it destroyed everything, leaving nothing behind.
Lin Fan's limbs have lost all definition in the realm of concepts.
Although the Zhuxian Sword cannot compare to the Blood Scythe of Wrath and cannot create true "nothingness" destruction, the conceptual entities destroyed by it under such a strong permeation of death rules are basically impossible to recover.
If Lin Fan possessed spiritual power like the "Heavenly Dao Body," based on his current spiritual capacity, it would take him a year to dispel and eliminate the concept of death attached to his conceptual body, which would allow him to recover his limbs.
Unfortunately, there is no such if.
He is destined to die without a burial place today.
With his limbs gone, Lin Fan crashed onto the floor of the deathmatch arena like a dead dog, letting out a shrill scream.
History from three months ago has been repeated.
This time, however... it hurts even more! It's even more humiliating!
Lin Fan gritted his teeth: "You..."
"You've been preparing for three months, and this is it?" Yu Xuezhao couldn't hide her disappointment: "Such a weakling dares to spout such nonsense."
She seemed to be angry; her spiritual energy became volatile, and her immortal cultivation surged forth without any concealment.
The middle stage of Return to Void!
This cultivation level not only shook the surrounding immortal laws, but also intimidated the disciples, elders, supreme elders, tribulation-crossing ancestors, and Ancestor Youchen on the best viewing platform, as well as Sect Master Ji Xingjian and others.
"No! This is impossible!"
Ji Xingjian blurted out, "Three months ago, Elder Yu had only just reached the Nascent Soul stage, how could this be..."
"Shut up!" Ancestor Youchen scolded, "Just watch the show, stop talking so much nonsense!"
Although he was surprised, when he thought of the big shot sitting in the main seat... he wasn't surprised anymore.
"Shut up too!" True Knowledge Loli scolded Old Ancestor You Chen, "Master is watching the battle, old man, watch your voice, or you'll spoil Master's fun... hmph!"
"Senior taught me a lesson."
The old ancestor Youchen was extremely respectful.
at the same time.
On the life-or-death arena, Lin Fan endured the pain and floated up. As he retreated, he summoned the Blood River Sword, the natal magic weapon of the Blood Sword Ancestor.
The Blood River Sword unleashed a blinding crimson light, obscuring the sun and creating a surging sea of blood that engulfed the entire arena.
The boundless killing intent forcibly stirred up the nearby immortal concepts, converging them into a blood sword that slashed towards Yu Xuezhao's conceptual body.
Lin Fan roared with a ferocious expression, "So what if you've reached the Void Realm! You bitch, you're destined to..."
"You have a sharp tongue."
Yu Xuezhao held the Zhuxian Sword in her hand.
The Zhuxian Sword responded to her will and began to operate at full power. The scarlet halo on the sword became dazzling, while a silver glow lingered on it.
The fully unleashed "Immortal-Slaying Sword Intent," combined with the Immortal-Slaying Sword, unleashed a deadly strike that instantly tore through the ten-thousand-foot-long crimson light and viscous blood river that enveloped the arena of life and death, slashing towards the Blood River Sword itself.
Crack... Cracks appeared on the Blood River Sword.
Yu Xuezhao's eyes narrowed, and she unleashed her second, third, and fourth sword strikes. In the powerful crimson impact, the Blood River Sword was torn to dust.
Then the powder dissolved completely, as if it had never existed.
"The Blood River Sword... is shattered...!?"
Lin Fan's eyes glazed over.
Yu Xuezhao sheathed the Immortal Execution Sword, activated her Immortal Dao cultivation at the Returning to Emptiness Realm, and combined it with the "Immortal Slaying Sword Intent" to gather a silver sword light that slashed towards Lin Fan's mangled body.
"stop!!!"
In the north of the arena of life and death, the Transcending Tribulation Ancestor, who was watching the battle, shouted loudly.
Yu Xuezhao completely ignored it.
Her speed was incredibly fast; before the Tribulation Ancestor could intervene, she directly crippled Lin Fan's entire cultivation with her silver sword light.
Lin Fan was instantly rendered useless, falling to the ground like a dead dog... This time he really was a dead dog.
Only then did the intervention of the Tribulation Transcending Ancestor reach the arena of life and death.
