Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 487 - The Great Battle Begins

“Chen Fan is here! What an aura—no wonder he can stand against Duan Jingtian.”

The crowd was electrified as they saw Chen Fan on the central battlefield, their eyes fixed on him.

With both protagonists present, an unprecedentedly fierce battle was about to happen. The spectators' blood boiled with excitement as if they were about to fight.

Chen Fan landed in the arena, standing opposite Duan Jingtian. He looked at Duan Jingtian with a cold and fierce gaze, not concealing his murderous intent.

“Duan Jingtian, the day has finally come!”

“I truly didn’t expect this. Sparing your life back then was a rash decision, and now you’ve grown to this level.” Duan Jingtian’s expression remained proud as he looked at Chen Fan with a lofty, superior attitude. “You’ve finally decided to stop acting like a coward. A mere ant has risen to challenge me. How surprising. I should have slain you a long time ago, but I gave you a chance instead. Now, you won’t get another.”

“You never could kill me!” Chen Fan said, “In the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land, your palm strike failed to kill me, and you couldn’t kill me after I left the blessed land. You tried to kill me in the Four Sects Martial Arts Competition, but you failed for the third time. However, you did injure yourself in the process and violate the sect rules. Tell me, what does it feel like to repent for a failure for an entire year?”

“Also, you gave me a chance? No, I fought off each and every minion of yours. Don’t make it sound like you let me go. I am sure you remember how I killed executives of your alliance right in front of you.

“You never once won against me, Duan Jingtian. You’re just a pitiful creature!”

Xie Feng was also among the alliance members; he stood just behind Duan Jingtian. “Chen Fan, now that our alliance leader has come out of seclusion, you will die a horrible death. Talk all you want, as those will be your final words.”

“Xie Feng,” Chen Fan said, his voice devoid of emotion, “You’re just a dog. How dare you bark here. Are you looking to die first?”

“You...” Xie Feng turned red from anger and shame at Chen Fan’s words.

As a core disciple and an Illusory Core realm expert, Xie Feng stood at the pinnacle of the inner sect disciples. Yet, Chen Fan had likened him to a dog, to be killed at his whim. That was too much.

“What do you mean, ‘you?’ Is my talk with Duan Jingtian something trash like you can interrupt? Did you really think you’re important? You reckless fool!”

Chen Fan’s merciless words enraged Xie Feng to the point of nearly exploding.

“How domineering!” Duan Jingtian interjected sarcastically. He smiled coldly and said, “Chen Fan, you have grown strong enough to resist me and even surprise me, but Xie Feng is right. Today, you’ll die. No one in heaven or earth can save you.”

“Hahahaha.” Chen Fan laughed out loud, his face filled with disdain, and said, “You talk big, Duan Jingtian! Your cultivation and status used to be above mine, yet you failed to kill me time after time. Now, we are on an even playing field, and you still dare to boast so shamelessly? It’s really laughable.

“You’re stuck in the past, Duan Jingtian. You still think I’m that Qi Grandmaster brat? Fine, I’ll show you today that you have no qualifications to act arrogantly in front of me. Back then, you couldn’t kill me, but today, I can kill you!”

“No need to waste your breath on him, Alliance Leader. Just do it—slaughter that little beast and use his head to show the strength of our alliance to the world. Proclaim your invincible might!” roared the alliance members below the arena.

Now that their leader was back, they had regained their momentum. They no longer had to keep a low profile and keep their arrogance in check.

Today was the day to proclaim their Heaven’s Alliance’s dominance with this battle.

In the future, the entire Spring Autumn Sect would be ruled by the alliance. Everyone else would have to submit to its authority.

“Come on, Duan Jingtian. Today, I shall trample you under my feet and cut you down in front of all these alliance losers. I want to see the look on their faces!”

Chen Fan’s imposing manner and words enraged the Heaven’s Alliance members. They felt the urge to rush up the arena to beat and kill Chen Fan.

“Hmph, since you wish to die, Chen Fan, I’ll grant your wish! You probably thought you had the strength to resist me after defeating the Blade Thunder Mountain’s Dongfang Yu. How na?ve!

“I’ll tell you the truth. In my eyes, Dongfang Yu is only an ant! If I wanted to, let alone the eighth ranker on the leaderboard, I could have even dealt with the first ranker easily!”

Duan Jingtian’s words stunned countless people, leaving them wide-eyed in shock.

Those ranked within the top ten of the Geniuses of Heaven Leaderboard were all dragons or phoenixes, standing at the absolute peak of the Core Formation realm. They were undisputed invincible powerhouses.

However, Duan Jingtian had dismissed them as ordinary.

If word of this spread, those ranked within the top ten of the Geniuses of Heaven Leaderboard would probably be so enraged they would come knocking on his door.

“Now, I’ll show you how na?ve you are. This time, no one will be able to help you. Go to hell!” Duan Jingtian ignored the crowd’s astonished gazes and struck out before his voice faded.

He tore through the void on all sides at once. The fragile space was like a paper window, unable to withstand his claw.

As he tore through the space, the crowd immediately saw hundreds, if not thousands, of cracks in the space like long rivers. Each long river surged with energy.

Those energies were as resplendent as starlight or mercury and were incomparably heavy. They fell and struck with a rumbling impact, immediately cracking the earth open.

Fiery rivers, ice rivers, blade and sword rivers, lightning rivers—hundreds of intense attacks—hurtled toward Chen Fan as if to destroy the world.

This terrifying scene deeply shocked everyone. The crowd was dumbfounded and petrified in place.

Chills ran deep into their bones, and they trembled uncontrollably.

Who could stop such an attack?

Duan Jingtian hadn't struck until now; when he did, his immense power seemed unstoppable.

He would crush everything that stood in his way with powerful energy, methods, and a domineering attitude.

Chen Fan narrowed his gaze, sensing a terrifying pressure rolling over.

Duan Jingtian was arrogant, but he had the strength to back up his confidence. His cultivation had truly reached the peak.

With a casual swipe, all kinds of martial skills were at his fingertips to use at will. It was simply astounding.
