957 Defeated in a Blink
Nine was too few?
Even Xiao Hong was astonished after hearing what Chen Fan said.
The nine elites of the Longevity Roll stood in the sky with their True Essence surging to the limit, as if there were nine suns. Some of them were cold like ghosts, some roared like fiends, some were surrounded by Sword Qi and some had a bright blade aura. The weakest one among them was a peak-stage Golden Core Cultivator, while their leader, Xiao Hong, was unpredictable and had already become a Half Heavenly Lord.
When nine elites worked together, even the old cultivators like Lin Shan or the Sect Master of the Ghost Underworld Sect might not be able to win.
But Chen Fan thought he didn’t have enough opponents.
“Haha, Elixir Monarch Chen, are you saying this just because you’re scared?” Lin Xiao mocked Chen Fan.
“Who said you could talk?”
Chen Fan grunted and swayed his hand.
“Slap!”
There seemed to be an invisible hand that gave Lin Xiao a slap. His Spirit Treasures then shone and were instantly cracked. It seemed as if he had just been hit by a train and he crashed against the Xuantian Mountain, creating a giant hole.
When the disciples of the Reincarnation Sect flew over, all of Lin Xiao’s bones were fractured. He spurted out golden blood and was close to death.
Countless people were terrified.
Lin Xiao was the Grand Elder’s most adored descendant and he had a sixth-grade Golden Core. And yet, he couldn’t even withstand Chen Fan’s slap.
“How dare you!”
The elders of the Reincarnation Sect were enraged.
Although Lin Xiao was the one who had been slapped, the Grand Elder of the Reincarnation Sect was actually the one being humiliated. He immediately looked serious.
But he was a powerful Grand Elder. He then said expressionlessly, “Elixir Monarch Chen, you just gave him a small punishment. The nine elites are still waiting for you. As an Elixir Monarch, you should teach them something.”
“Right, Elixir Monarch Chen. Please don’t reject them,” said the Sect Master of the Ghost Underworld Sect.
The Sect Masters and elders looked at Chen Fan. They had already let out their True Essence and were ready to attack if Chen Fan rejected the fight.
Chen Fan didn’t realize that; he only looked at Xiao Hong and the others.
“Just you nine?”
“We’ll talk about it after you beat all of us.” The Liyang Sword Lord sneered. Xiao Hong stood in the sky fiercely with his hands behind him like a mountain and he remained silent.
“Once I attack, you’re all going to die. Don’t say that I never warned you if something happens to you,” Chen Fan said.
“Haha!”
The elites burst into laughter.
“Elixir Monarch Chen, we don’t care if we live or die. Just do your worst.” Gongsun Kui laughed as his hair fluttered in the wind. He was surrounded by a golden aura and he glittered like the Divine Prince of the sun.
“All right!”
Chen Fan put down the gla.s.s and flew to the sky.
Everyone held their breath.
This astonis.h.i.+ng battle had finally begun. Even Jun Aochen and Gu Xiaoyi sat upright and looked up, while the other cultivators were extremely excited.
On one side, there were nine elites and Xiao Hong who ranked seventh on the Longevity Roll.
And on the other was the Elixir Monarch, Chen Beixuan, who had defeated an entire family by himself.
This would certainly be an earth-shattering battle. The Divine Powers and secret arts shown here would still be remembered thousands of years later. n.o.body knew how many elites would rise and how many would die in this battle.
But more people believed that Chen Fan would be the one who would lose.
They were certain about it.
Who else, other than a Heavenly Lord, could defeat the nine elites? Not even Li Huaixian, Jun Aochen or Lin Shan would be able to pull off such a feat. Countless people were waiting for Chen Fan to lose.
Only Xiao Mang stared at Chen Fan and prayed that he would win.
Even if there wasn’t much hope.
Unfortunately, what happened next astonished everyone.
Chen Fan stood in the sky and the nine elites surrounded him, as if he were the sun.
An elder of the Reincarnation Sect even flew to the sky and formed an array to separate their battlefield along with the Divine Stage, so that they wouldn’t hurt anyone.
Wu Shan looked at the sky and said, “That kid is going to lose. My Senior has cultivated the ‘Divine King Fiend Art’ to the phenomenal success level. Even our Ancestral Patriarch is in awe and thinks that he has one-third of a chance of becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator a thousand years later.”
The “Divine King Fiend Art” was a supreme cultivator art of the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect.
It was the reason why they had suppressed the Ancient Demons Loch for more than ten thousand years and even the Demon Commanders couldn’t survive it.
“I guess Brother Xiao doesn’t have to do anything. The other eight elites are powerful enough to deal with Chen Beixuan already,” Zhang Dongshan said viciously.
Lin Xiao was his friend and Chen Fan had slapped him. How could Zhang Dongshan not be angry?
Mu Yanping and the Xuankong Sword Prince nodded.
In fact, most people thought so too. No matter how strong Chen Fan was, he couldn’t fight with nine cultivators at once. Besides, his Fiend Art was restrained by Xiao Hong. If he didn’t enter the Nascent Soul Level, he would definitely lose.
“Chen Beixuan is probably going to die.”
Many old cultivators heaved a sigh.
Meanwhile, the battle had started.
“Attack together. Don’t waste time.”
Chen Fan flew in the air calmly.
“You sure have guts! Show me your peerless cultivation arts first.”
The Liyang Sword Lord grunted. He had short hair and was wearing a linen robe like a slave. The sky was filled with his Sword Qi as if there were a peerless Heavenly Blade.
As the top cultivator of the Liyang Heavenly Region, the Liyang Sword Lord was even more powerful than Gongsun Kui. When he attacked, he was extremely fierce.
The Liyang Sword Lord pointed at the air and shouted, “Rise!”
Then.
Ninety-nine swords appeared behind him and they flashed across the sky. Each of them was about a foot long, but was covered with a silver aura. People could feel the powerful Sword Qi just by looking at them. They were apparently Spirit Treasures and some were even of mid-grade or superior-grade.
Those swords were powerful enough to tear a Golden Core Cultivator apart.
But when they were three feet away from Chen Fan, they seemed to have hit an invisible wall and rebounded. One, two, three… None of the ninety-nine swords were able to go any further.
After witnessing such development, many cultivators frowned and were surprised by how strong Chen Fan’s body was.
The Liyang Sword Lord yelled, “Again!”
Ninety-nine beams of light merged into one and formed a sword wheel with silver glitters, which carried an energy of the Great Perfection Level. It was white like the moon.
“Go!”
The sword wheel flashed across the sky.
It created a beam of light and the sky was split, which showed how sharp the swords were.
Everyone was shocked.
The Liyang Sword Lord could certainly be ranked among the top ten on the Longevity Roll just by gauging this attack. Since its power was comparable to that of a Half Heavenly Lord, even the strongest body would be unable to resist it.
Out of everyone’s expectation—
Chen Fan only flicked his fingers.
“Dong!”
The sword wheel shattered immediately. The ninety-nine swords seemed to be overwhelmed by Chen Fan’s power and they were shot everywhere, letting out some buzzing sounds.
And the Liyang Sword Lord trembled as if he would have been hit hard; he was pushed back three hundred feet.
“Weak.”
Chen Fan grunted.
The elites were startled.
At this point, even Zhang Dongshan and the Xuankong Sword Prince knew something was wrong.
“All right, let me do it.”
Gongsun Kui stepped forward and let out the “Giant Sun Force.” Many golden energy waves appeared in the sky which headed towards Chen Fan.
Chen Fan only pointed.
There seemed to be an invincible sword in the sky.
It broke the golden energy waves like splitting the ocean. Gongsun Kui was terrified. He quickly took out six secret treasures and was surrounded by a colorful aura, but he still couldn’t withstand the sword attack. In the end, the elites behind him helped him stop it together.
This time, even Xiao Hong was frightened, while Jun Aochen and Gu Xiaoyi became more serious.
“You’re too weak. Attack together!”
Chen Fan shook his head.
He was no longer the old him back in the Beihuang Region. After completing the fourth transformation of the Deity Wheel, it was like having four sacred-grade Golden Cores, which made him really powerful. He could conquer the world by only using the “Six Sacred Ancestor Fiend Art.”
“Let’s attack together!” Xiao Hong said.
He started to doubt if they could really beat Chen Fan. Lin Shan and the others looked extremely serious as well. Chen Fan’s power was way beyond their expectation. No one could face him alone.
“Boom!”
How powerful would it be when the nine elites attacked at the same time?
In the sky, there was a sword wheel, blade auras, the sun… All kinds of Essence Qi and energy came together and formed an ocean, which made the array of the Reincarnation Sect shake. Countless raging energies rushed towards Chen Fan.
Such a sight frightened everyone, including Xiao Mang.
But Chen Fan wasn’t afraid; he laughed instead.
“Haha, great one!”
He then flashed to the energy ocean like a beam of light.
