Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 417 - Killing in Front of Them

Boom, crack, crack!

A series of cracking noises echoed through the air as cracks spread out like a spiderweb, twisting and turning across the entire Mountain of Sealing, sending rubble rolling down.

After half a month of relentless attacks, Yin Yang Scholar and the others had finally weakened the final layers of the sealing powers covering the Mountain of Seal, leading to its collapse.

“Hahaha, good, our work is done. Let us welcome Senior Daoist Corpse Spirit as he breaks free!”

Despite their exhaustion, Yin Yang Scholar and his companions couldn't contain their laughter, brimming with excitement.

Rumble!

With another loud noise, the entire mountain blew apart. From within, Chen Fan unleashed a palm strike, shattering the mountain, and stepped out.

Swish, swish, swish.

Yin Yang Scholar and the others immediately flew over and half-knelt on the ground. They respectfully said, “Congratulations to Senior Corpse Spirit for breaking free!”

Momentarily surprised, Chen Fan quickly composed himself. He concluded that they believed Daoist Corpse Spirit had successfully possessed him.

A cold gleam flashed in his eyes as he said, “Very well. You've all performed admirably. Your efforts have been instrumental in freeing me from suppression. Rest assured, I will honor my promises and generously reward each of you.

“I have successfully assumed control of this body and assimilated the memories of this Chen Fan. It’s really not bad. I’ve obtained a powerful upper-earth tier cultivation technique. Now, I’ll impart it to you as a reward!”

Yin Yang Scholar and the others erupted in joy.

Chen Fan looked at Yin Yang Scholar and the others. A cold light surged in his eyes as he extended a finger, pointing at Black Fiend Bat.

Black Fiend Bat trembled from excitement, his guard dropping to its lowest point.

Suddenly, a fierce light shot out from Chen Fan’s gaze. He vanished and quickly reappeared in front of Black Fiend Bat.

His finger was like a sharp sword, stabbing toward Black Fiend Bat’s glabella.

With his keen perception and high cultivation, Sword Venerable Ling Yun was the first to sense the danger. Reacting swiftly, he bellowed, “Not good! Quickly retreat! Black Fiend Bat, quickly retreat! He’s not Daoist Corpse Spirit! Damn it, he’s not Daoist Corpse Spirit!”

With lightning speed, Sword Venerable Ling Yun drew his sword, unleashing a powerful strike toward Chen Fan.

Black Fiend Bat was still lost in euphoria, as he hadn’t even imagined that Daoist Corpse Spirit would fail to possess Chen Fan.

After all, Daoist Corpse Spirit was a super powerhouse at the peak of the Heavenly Star realm. He didn’t have many rivals even across the entire Hong Domain. So, possessing a brat at the first level of the Core Formation realm should have been a trivial matter, right?

But before Black Fiend Bat could react, Chen Fan's finger pierced his forehead. In an instant, a devastating force shattered Black Fiend Bat's soul into fragments.

A look of disbelief crossed Black Fiend Bat's face. He managed only a single word before his eyes dimmed. "You..."

Chla!

Simultaneously, Sword Venerable Ling Yun's sword light sliced through the air like thunder, tearing apart the atmosphere with its terrifying force. Chen Fan felt the danger despite having advanced to the third level.

However, he was not afraid.

“Break!”

He was countless times stronger than he was half a month ago. He flipped his palm, throwing out a palm strike. His palm strike morphed into a large seal, shattering the thick sword light into fragments.

“How is this possible? How could Senior Daoist Corpse Spirit have failed in possessing him?”

Yin Yang Scholar and the others, now fully alert, were shocked to see Black Fiend Bat reduced to a mere corpse. They activated their auras, channeling their cultivation.

“Impossible! Daoist Corpse Spirit couldn’t have failed!” Yin Yang Scholar roared furiously, his expression twisted and hideous.

“Die!” Chen Fan didn’t have the time to explain why Daoist Corpse Spirit's possession had failed. Having neutralized Sword Venerable Ling Yun’s sword light, he rushed toward Yin Yang Scholar with a swish.

“Yin Yang Scholar, watch out!” Sword Venerable Ling Yun roared again. His sword intent erupted, and sword qi surged around him, sweeping out in all directions as he attacked Chen Fan.

Yin Yang Scholar sensed the aura of death enveloping him, so he snapped back to reality, regaining his composure. Regardless of discussions, the undeniable truth remained: Daoist Corpse Spirit had failed to possess Chen Fan.

“Yin Yang Heaven Flipping Hand!”

Cold killing intent surged from Yin Yang Scholar. He channeled his cultivation furiously, his true primeval blossoming wildly. Black and white true primeval rolled and whistled in his palm as he unleashed a palm strike.

The black and white hues symbolized Yin and Yang, flipping heaven and earth, grinding away the air layer by layer.

Tss, tss, tss. Tss, tss, tss...

The onslaught seemed capable of upending heaven and earth itself. Terrifying killing power rushed through the air and dug down, aiming to kill Chen Fan.

This was an earth tier martial skill of unparalleled might!

“You damned little bastard. How dare you trick us! Go to hell!” Young Master Xue Yi’s face had turned ashen.

When Chen Fan had emerged from the Mountain of Seals, every one of them had half-knelt on the ground, acting with utmost respect. Unexpectedly, they had been kneeling before Chen Fan.

The realization fueled Young Master Xue Yi's murderous intent further. The fresh blood wings on his back flapped. The wings were like blood-colored blades, slicing through space, producing mournful noises.

“Blood Wings Eighteen Slash!”

Two streaks of bloody light instantly broke through the air with unrivaled ferocity.

Wanderer Hundred Poisons also struck out. A mass of poisonous qi rose from him, corroding the air with its terrifying toxicity. The atmosphere transformed into a sickening mixture of pus and water, dripping to the ground with a sizzle.

“Hundred Poison Palm!” With a flip of his palms, Wanderer Hundred Poisons summoned a large, gray hand composed of poisonous qi, sweeping it across the sky and enveloping the area.

“Hahahaha, all of you are all bark and no bite. Break!” Chen Fan fearlessly laughed.

He thrust his iron spear violently and shattered the Yin Yang Heaven Flipping Hand. He obliterated the two streaks of bloody light with a resounding boom with another horizontal sweep.

Flipping his palm, Chen Fan ignored the terrifying poisonous qi and clashed against the descending poisonous palm seal, smashing it into smithereens. “Annihilate!”

Wanderer Hundred Poisons said with a cold smile, “How bold of you, brat. You actually dared to clash head-on with my poisonous palm. Hmph, surely the poisonous qi has reached your heart by now!”

He had absolute confidence in his poisonous martial arts.

“It’s only a tiny bit of poison qi. Thinking it’ll reach my heart? You’re thinking too highly of yourself!”

Chen Fan lunged toward Wanderer Hundred Poisons with lightning speed, his spear poised for attack.
