958 Killing Heavenly Talents Like Killing Insects
How powerful exactly was Chen Fan?
Even Chen Fan didn’t have the answer. He possessed the combined effect of four Sacred-grade Golden Cores: the Xuan Wu, the Azure Thearch, the Kun Peng and the Thunder Loch. Each time he leveled up any of those forms, his power and physique would improve significantly. By then, his body was extremely robust and durable, even without using Azure Thearch Longevity Body.
In fact, Chen Fan had not yet even tapped in to his dharma power.
“Boom!”
Amidst the sea of Essence Qi and Dharma Energies, Chen Fan’s body flickered a second and pierced through s.p.a.ce, shattering all the Dimensional Dharma Arrays around him. Suddenly, countless void dimensions opened up, sucking the surrounding surges of energy. Countless Blade Auras, Blade Qi and other deadly forces clashed with Chen Fan’s body, but they were knocked aside upon impact.
While everyone was watching him with shock, Chen Fan flew into the sky with incredible speed, turning into a streak of energy and plunging into the sea of energy.
“Boom!”
The colorful sea boiled over as Chen Fan created a path through the middle. He fought like an invincible G.o.d that expelled harmful energies far ahead of him. In a blink, he had arrived before the Heavenly Talents.
“Oh no!”
Xiao Hong was floored.
The other Heavenly Talents were shaken to the core. No one had expected Chen Fan’s body to be this strong.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Chen Fan rammed into half a dozen Heavenly Talents, including Xiao Hong’s towering frame. The impact had winded all of them and made them wince.
Chen Fan hurled a fist at his foes, sending a few of the weaker ones flying.
“What a Physique Refinement skill!”
Even Xiao Hong was forced to pull back a few dozen meters.
He had been half-step away from becoming Heavenly Lord for a while, and was confident enough to challenge Li Huaixian. However, he felt powerless in front of Chen Fan’s attack.
The Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect’s Demon-suppressing Force was well known for its unstoppable belligerence.
However, it was easily countered by Chen Fan.
“Again!”
Chen Fan burst into laughter.
He rammed into his foe with the same momentum of an unstoppable train. Each punch and kick spelled doom for a Heavenly Talent.
“Boom!”
The Heavenly Jade Sword Prince’s blade was shattered by Chen Fan. Blood spat out from his mouth as he fell back seven hundred meters.
“You are too weak”
Chen Fan flicked a finger and defeated Gongsun Kui; he rammed into Xiao Hong and sent him flying back. Xiao Hong struggled to gather himself and shouted, “Don’t fight alone, use formations!”
Although these Heavenly Talents had never fought as a team, formations and teamwork was part of their training. Once they heard Xiao Hong’s command, they made a formation based on the Big Dipper constellation so that Chen Fan would have to deal with at least two Heavenly Talents at once, regardless of the direction of his attack.
“This is not enough.”
Chen Fan shook his head.
His attacks carried more weight than ten thousand primordial beasts. As he ripped across the sky, the firmament moaned as if it couldn’t hold out against Chen Fan’s energy.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Chen Fan exchanged a few blows with nine Heavenly Talents at once.
So powerful was Chen Fan that he had overpowered their combined might. His punch and kick were able to penetrate his foes’ bodies and shatter their golden cores.
“What kind of technique is that? Despite the lack of form, even Heavenly Lords would succ.u.mb when facing such raw strength.”
Everyone looked at each other in fear.
By the end, nine Heavenly Talents attacked at once as nine rays of energy merged into one scintillating beam. So deadly was this energy beam that even the Grand Elder Lin Shan wondered if he could withstand it.
To counter it, Chen Fan simply punched back.
“Boom!”
The s.p.a.ce was torn at the seams and heaven fell from the sky.
Endless gushes of Essence Qi burst out from the point of impact, forming a shockwave that made everything and everyone shake within its zone of influence. Even some sect elders felt they were going to faint before such unrelenting force.
As for those nine Heavenly Talents, they were sent flying back like cannon b.a.l.l.s.
Gui Mingzi was the weakest, and his body exploded on the spot. Although he was able to quickly reform his body using a secret art, the regeneration had taken a toll on his energy.
“This is terrifying.”
Everyone was shocked.
Chen Fan’s power even sent a chill down Xiao Hong’s spine.
“Time to end this!”
Chen Fan shook his head.
By then, none of the so-called Heavenly Talents on the Longevity Roll were his equal. Xiao Hong might be able to hold out against him for a while before he inevitably succ.u.mbed to his strength.
After he had said that, Chen Fan disappeared out of thin air.
“Be careful.”
Fear flashed across Xiao Hong’s face, and before he had time to warn anyone, a Heavenly Talent’s body was shattered as if a train had run him over. The explosion was followed by a shower of golden flood and squishy bits of flesh. Although the Divine Soul had escaped the blow, his energy had been greatly reduced.
“Boom!”
Chen Fan had appeared behind another Heavenly Talent and punched his body, causing another explosion.
“Together, NOW!” Xiao Hong shouted.
This time, he no longer held back his strength. A deadly energy burned around him like fire as an appreciation appeared behind Xiao Hong. The apparition wore a black outfit that made him look like the Immortal King from the Nine Heavens.
As Xiao Hong took a step forward, so did the Immortal King. With perfect synchronicity, they punched at Chen Fan with an unfathomably powerful attack.
Meanwhile, Chen Fan had decided to end this boring fight.
He scanned his foe and landed his gaze on the weakest one: Gui Mingzi.
“Oh no!”
The Liyang Sword Lord pulled a taut face.
He brought his blade above his head and started an art, sending out a crescent Blade Qi.
As the Blade Qi traveled across the formation, many Heavenly Talents boosted its energy. After a second, the silvery crescent had increased its size three times.
“Dong!”
Chen Fan didn’t evade the attack and allowed the Blade Auras to land on him. Meanwhile, he reached out with one of his arms to grab hold of Gui Mingzi.
“Come over here!”
Boom!
Chen Fan didn’t even use Dharma Power.
However, his hand seemed to send out suffocating energies that filled up the entire s.p.a.ce, making the air above one’s head as heavy as a slab of concrete.
“Argh!”
Gui Mingzi’s body trembled as he found out that he couldn’t use any Art of Concealment.
It was as if the air had tapped him into place as heavy tree sap would to unwitting insects. He couldn’t use any of his Divine Powers as the flow of energy was paused by Chen Fan
The rest of the Heavenly Talents hurried to Gui Mingzi’s rescue while Xiao Hong doubled down on his art, letting the Immortal King’s energy multiply.
However, their attacks and Blade Auras couldn’t even make a dent on Chen Fan.
“Didn’t I tell you to bring more Heavenly Lords if you wanted to take me on? Well, now you will have to pay the price for not listening to me.”
After he had said that, he closed his fingers and squeezed.
“No! What are you doing?” Gui Mingzi screamed.
Not only was he the weakest, but his energy had also taken a toll after he had to regenerate his body. By then, he was weaker than Lin Xiao and was vulnerable to Chen Fan’s least threatening attacks.
“Release him!”
Xiao Hong showered Chen Fan with attacks.
“Oh, this is nothing, really. I just wanted to settle some scores with you. Didn’t you want to kill me?” Chen Fan grinned.
Gui Mingzi was overtaken by fear. Suddenly, he realized what Chen Fan was after when he saw the indifference in his eyes.
Chen Fan was really going to kill him.
“No!”
Before Gui Mingzi could beg for his life, Chen Fan brought his hands together, palm and palm.
“Boom!”
Chen Fan’s physical strength could rival that of a Nascent Soul Fey Beast, so he had easily crushed Gui Mingzi’s body. As golden blood oozed out from the gaps in Chen Fan’s palms, Gui Mingzi’s Divine Soul whimpered in half death.
“Insolence! How dare you!”
The Sect Master and the elders of the Ghost Underworld Sect jumped out of their seats and fumed. Xiao Hong shouted, “Spare him if you don’t want to be Ghost Underworld Sect’s enemy!”
“I’m sorry, Elixir Monarch. Please forgive me,” Gui Mingzi pleaded.
“Too late.”
Chen Fan’s face was impa.s.sive and his gaze indifferent. He let Xiao Hong and the others shower attacks on him as he squeezed his hands together.
“Bang!”
A noise was heard, which resembled the popping sound of a balloon.
Under countless incredulous stares, Chen Fan had squashed Gui Mingzi’s Golden Core and Divine Soul, and denied his last chance to live. Not even a Grand Cultivator could be revived without a Divine Soul.
Countless people were speechless.
Just as everyone else, Xiao Hong couldn’t believe his eyes.
Chen Fan had killed a Heavenly Talent!
Worse, he killed him in front of all the powerful forces of Tianhuang with such ease. It was as if he had just squashed an insect.
“Who else?”
Chen Fan looked around with Gui Mingzi’s blood still on his hand.
No one dared to hold his gaze. Even Xiao Hong wore a troubled look.
I kill Heavenly Talents just like killing insects.
