Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 554 - Heavily Injure, Escape

“You must die today!”

Nie Tao’s eyes were filled with boundless killing intent that swept through the lands.

With his cultivation, he was considered top-tier among those on this island. Yet, he struggled against Chen Fan, who wasn’t even close to his level. This was a disgrace and a blow to his prestige.

He was five minor realms above Chen Fan. This should have been an easy victory, but he couldn’t swiftly overpower Chen Fan.

In the Nine Revolutions of the Golden Core, the difference between each level was immense, and Chen Fan had not even reached this realm.

Normally, anyone at the peak of the ninth level would be unable to withstand a single strike from him. And that only applied to the geniuses. Nie Tao could scare to death ordinary people with that cultivation level with his presence alone. A single breath from him could wipe out many.

However, Chen Fan was an exceptional challenge. Not only did he dare to fight back, but he also succeeded in doing it for so long. Despite being battered and bleeding, he showed no signs of surrender.

On the contrary, his expression grew increasingly ferocious and desperate, fighting as if he were willing to sacrifice himself. This unsettled Nie Tao, making him anxious.

How could he let a character like this mature?

That would be too horrifying!

Chen Fan was at the peak of the ninth level now; if he advanced to the one-revolution Golden Core realm, even Nie Tao would likely no longer be a match for him.

Nie Tao’s killing intent grew even more intense, and he attacked Chen Fan once more.

“Die!” Nie Tao charged forward, his murderous aura surging with thunderous power. Lightning streaked across the sky, forming a thunderous sword aimed directly at Chen Fan's throat.

Bang!

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes, sweeping out with the Purgatory Divine Halberd in his hand. He directly destroyed that thunderous sword. The force of the impact sent his clothing fluttering fiercely.

“Hmph!” Nie Tao snorted coldly and attacked again. Anyone else would have died long ago from Nie Tao's attacks.

However, Chen Fan's strength and endurance, combined with his extraordinary physique and rapid recovery, allowed him to persevere. It made the raging flames inside Nie Tao burn hotter and hotter.

Rumble!

The ground exploded once more, dirt flying everywhere. It was a catastrophe for the land.

Nie Tao wanted to kill Chen Fan, but the latter resisted with all his strength, swinging the Purgatory Divine Halberd in his hand wildly.

Streaks of halberd light, capable of annihilating the world, wove together into an inescapable net, guarding him without the slightest opening.

However, under Nie Tao's assault, the net of halberd light was quickly torn apart. Nie Tao’s terrifying force struck Chen Fan, making him spew blood.

Yet, Chen Fan’s expression remained cold and domineering. Inwardly, though, he was anxious.

No matter how strong his physique was, there was a limit. If he continued receiving such heavy attacks, it was only a matter of time before Nie Tao killed him.

I must think of a way to deal serious damage to Nie Tao once to have a chance at escaping! A cold glint flickered in the depths of Chen Fan’s eyes as he came up with a plot to heavily injure Nie Tao.

Nie Tao’s true primeval transformed into an ancient divine mountain, pressing down on Chen Fan.

The sky collapsed. The air swept out wildly in all directions like arrows. It was as if the end of the world was descending upon him.

Chen Fan stood up, channeled his strength, and rushed to the sky, facing it head-on.

Boom, thump!

Chen Fan smashed the ancient divine mountain, but he let out a miserable cry as blood spattered through the air. He was knocked to the ground, forming a large crater upon impact.

Nie Tao stood in the sky, gazing down. He looked at Chen Fan, who was sprawled in the crater and bleeding profusely, his aura feeble. Nie Tao finally revealed a faint smile and said, “I have to admit, you are indeed very strong. I underestimated you earlier. To fight me to this extent, you shouldn’t feel any regret even in death!”

After attacking Chen Fan for so long, he had finally heavily injured Chen Fan and sapped his fighting power. Now, he was at Nie Tao’s mercy.

Swish!

Nie Tao slowly descended, his qi still flowing, ready for a desperate strike from Chen Fan. However, even when he was on the ground, Chen Fan remained unmoving, gasping heavily for air.

He finally felt relieved, sure that his opponent was spent.

“Chen Fan, hand over the Martial Dao Will fragment. I can grant you a quick death!”

Nie Tao approached Chen Fan with the attitude of a victor.

Grabbing at the empty air, his energy surged, picking up Chen Fan into the air. It was a humiliating position to be in.

“Haha, you have indeed lost all fighting strength. You must be at the end of your rope.”

Seeing Chen Fan unable to resist like a dead dog, Nie Tao finally let his guard down.

“Go to hell!”

However, that was exactly what Chen Fan wanted. A fierce light shone from his eyes. He thrust the Purgatory Divine Halberd toward Nie Tao’s head at lightning speed.

Nie Tao turned pale with fright due to the unexpected outburst.

He had sensed Chen Fan's weak aura and had verified repeatedly that he had lost all his fighting strength, so this sudden attack took him completely by surprise.

How was he to know that Chen Fan could use the Heaven Seizing Furnace to suppress all types of aura? He used it to trick Nie Tao.

This was part of Chen Fan’s plan to deal a serious blow to Nie Tao, creating an opening for him to escape.

“What!” Nie Tao turned pale with fright, sensing the grim reaper’s summons. A deadly intent completely shrouded him, making his hands and feet turn cold.

Reacting quickly, Nie Tao turned his head to the side, but Chen Fan’s thrust still pierced through his left arm.

Boom, tch!

The terrifying force immediately erupted. Nie Tao let out a miserable scream as his entire left arm was destroyed.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan seized this opportunity and unleashed the Wings of Rain Dragon. With a swish, he tore through the air and turned into a streak of light, fleeing into the depths of the Hidden Dragon Island.

He knew that although that attack earlier had heavily injured Nie Tao, crippling his left arm, it wasn’t fatal. Nie Tao’s combat strength was still there. He needed to seize this opening to escape.

“Ahhh!” Nie Tao’s furious roar resounded behind Chen Fan.

“Don’t you leave, you bastard! Forget about escaping, you’re dead for sure today! You hurt me, you deeply wounded me, I’ll rip you into a thousand pieces!” Nie Tao’s furious roar transformed into waves, sweeping out layer after layer.
