"Master wants to see if these silver statues and gold statues are more powerful than my stone man! My Flowing Cloud Fist has a certain chance of victory against them here." Lu Fan said, and with a sudden burst of energy, he unleashed several powerful strikes towards the other silver statues.
Instantly, ten silver statues and one gold statue surrounded Lu Fan. The entire grand hall flashed with golden and silver light, creating a dazzling spectacle. Amidst the golden and silver radiance, a single figure weaved back and forth, accompanied by bursts of thunderous roars that rumbled like rolling thunder.
"Master is indeed Master! Unmatched in heroism!"
"Master! Besides chasing girls, you're practically invincible in a fight!"
Zhan Tai Ruo Mei and Li Jing Jing stood at the entrance of the hall, praising him.
"You two little rascals, are you saying it's only natural for your master to be invincible at chasing girls?" Lu Fan rolled his eyes, thinking he didn't casually chase girls all the time.
"Of course, Master's every smile and glance can captivate countless beauties. You don't even need to speak, and countless women will throw themselves into your arms. Who in this world can compare?" Li Jing Jing immediately chimed in.
She wasn't entirely lying, as she possessed mind-reading abilities. She could discern what every woman thought the first time they saw Lu Fan. And she herself... "Young and ignorant, I painted my temples and disguised myself as a delicate maiden. My heart, like springtime, was stirring, and I bore tears to watch the ordinary."
"I won't argue with you on that!" Lu Fan chuckled, realizing he did indeed have quite a few beautiful women around him. Alas... it was a pity he seemed to have missed many opportunities. He hadn't even had a chance to bid farewell to Bai Xue Mei and the others, and he didn't know about Liu Ru Yan either...
*Bang...* As Lu Fan was lost in thought, he was suddenly struck by a punch from the gold statue, sending him flying back more than ten meters.
"Master! Don't think about your women when you're fighting!" Li Jing Jing exclaimed from the side.
"Alright! One shouldn't be distracted while fighting. It shows disrespect to the opponent! However, your fist techniques are nothing special. Let me see your sword techniques!" Lu Fan took a deep breath, leaped forward, and a black sword light appeared in his hand as he slashed towards the gold statue.
*Swish, swish, swish...* The ten silver statues and the gold statue simultaneously drew their swords. A flash of silver light, interspersed with a golden glow and a black sword shadow, instantly dazzled the eyes.
"Master, be careful!" Zhan Tai Ruo Mei pouted and called out.
"Master is using them to perfect his fist and sword techniques! Things from the mortal realm are still mortal realm. Once they enter the immortal realm, they might be too far behind," Li Jing Jing suddenly said.
"Then we..." Zhan Tai Ruo Mei glanced at Li Jing Jing.
"Let's go..." Li Jing Jing suddenly turned and walked out. Zhan Tai Ruo Mei immediately followed.
The two entered a side hall on the left. Inside, there was only a female statue clad in red armor, holding a string of golden bells.
"Sister, leave this to me!" Zhan Tai Ruo Mei suddenly said.
"Alright! Be careful, junior sister!" Li Jing Jing turned and went to the side hall on the right. Inside, there was also a female statue clad in red armor, holding a golden silk ribbon. *Swish...* Li Jing Jing leaped inside.
Lu Fan's Dark Blade sword danced up and down, effortlessly facing eleven blades. He executed the Falling Blossom Sword Technique to its fullest, even identifying and mending any flaws to further perfect his swordsmanship.
Lu Fan's mental energy was entirely focused on refining his sword techniques. He didn't know how long he had been fighting when suddenly, the opponent's swordplay changed. The dozen or so swords instantly rose into the air, and the gold and silver statues retreated to a distance.
A sword formation! Lu Fan's expression instantly became extremely solemn. The power of a sword formation wasn't calculated as simply as one plus one equals two. The power of a sword formation was calculated using cubic formulas. Moreover, with the swords freed from the restraint of hands, their changes would become more arbitrary, sharp, and difficult to defend against.
As expected, streams of sword light, like wild horses that had broken free from their reins, shot towards Lu Fan from all angles. *Clang, clang, clang...* Lu Fan's Dark Blade glowed with streaks of black light, instantly enveloping him, and the silver sword light was continuously repelled.
Suddenly, the large golden sword slowly ascended into the air, hovering directly above Lu Fan's head. *Swish...* The ten silver swords began to spin rapidly around Lu Fan.
Lu Fan could feel powerful forces, like mountains and waves, pressing down on him, one after another.
"This must be the most powerful and imposing move of the sword formation. Hmph! Then come! Let you know that this young master isn't just capable of this!" Lu Fan's fighting spirit surged, and the Dark Blade in his hand instantly unleashed a black light several zhang long.
*Whoosh...* The golden greatsword suddenly plunged down towards Lu Fan. Simultaneously, the ten silver swords also shot towards Lu Fan.
Lu Fan's Dark Blade instantly detached from his hand and spun around him. At the same time, he performed a backflip, and the golden greatsword, brushing past his nose, crashed down. With a *bang*, it plunged into the jade floor, causing spiderweb-like cracks to appear and spread outwards.
*Crack...* Lu Fan reached out and grabbed the hilt of the golden greatsword. *Clang, clang...* The ten silver swords, which had been repelled by the Dark Blade, instantly fell to the ground. *Swish...* After landing, all ten swords transformed into dagger-sized weapons.
*Swish...* The golden greatsword in Lu Fan's hand also changed instantly, becoming dagger-sized and held in his hand.
What the heck...! Lu Fan was somewhat shocked. This was a treasure! He immediately waved his hand and collected all the swords.
"Master!"
"Master!"
At this moment, Li Jing Jing and Zhan Tai Ruo Mei appeared at the entrance of the hall. Both of them wore smiling faces, their expressions filled with joy. One held a golden bell, and the other had a golden silk ribbon draped over her arm.
"You succeeded too! Amazing!" Lu Fan smiled slightly and gave them a thumbs-up.
"Master is mighty!" Li Jing Jing and Zhan Tai Ruo Mei immediately bowed slightly and shouted in unison.
*Crack, crack, crack...* *Crack, crack, crack...* As the three of them were basking in their triumph, they suddenly heard crisp cracking sounds from beneath their feet. Looking down, they saw that the ground beneath them was covered in cracks. Moreover... the entire island seemed to be sinking.
