Chapter 516 - Determined to Kill Chen Fan
“First one!” said Chen Fan as Duan Jingtian plummeted from the sky. With a loud bang, he fell to the ground and turned into a puddle of flesh.
A brief silence gripped the battlefield, freezing everyone in place. The sound of Duan Jingtian's fall was like a sledgehammer to the hearts of all present.
The spectators weren't shocked that Chen Fan could kill Duan Jingtian; their earlier battle had proven his capability.
What shocked the crowd was that Chen Fan had emerged unscathed from the combined attacks of the five experts and even killed Duan Jingtian in a flash.
A ninth-level Core Formation realm expert couldn’t even react in time before he was killed. That was too terrifying.
That was the power Chen Fan wielded after reaching the ninth-level Core Formation realm.
Too scary!
And too horrifying!
Many people’s hearts squeezed violently.
“Hahahaha, good, nice kill!” Suddenly, a burst of booming laughter broke the silence, coming from the law enforcement grand elder who was the quickest to recover. His laughter shook heaven and earth.
Duan Jingtian, a spy planted by the Blood Demon Cave within the Spring Autumn Sect, had struck unexpectedly, killing one of the sect's ninth-level Core Formation grand elders and throwing them into danger.
It wouldn’t be an overstatement that everyone in the sect hated him.
With Duan Jingtian's death, it felt like a thorn had been removed from the side of everyone in the sect. They felt very free, and naturally, everyone was very happy about it.
The Spring Autumn Sect disciples were impassioned and cheered repeatedly.
“Eternal victory to the Spring Autumn Sect!”
“Spring Autumn Sect is invincible!”
“Long live First Senior Brother Chen Fan!”
“......”
They had lost many people because of Duan Jingtian, including their brothers, sisters, and their best friends.
Chen Fan's retaliation felt like justice served, avenging their losses. His prestige soared to an unprecedented peak.
However, his advancement to the ninth level and subsequent defeat of the trio had dealt a severe blow to the morale of the Blood Demon Army, while revitalizing the Spring Autumn Sect.
Five top experts had joined forces to bring him down, but they failed to injure him and also lost an ally. The morale of the blood demons’ army had reached a new depth.
Now, Chen Fan only had to deal with four of the five experts. Their prospects against Chen Fan seemed increasingly bleak.
Duan Jingtian’s betrayal had made the Spring Autumn Sect panic and fall into a desperate situation, but Chen Fan used sheer brute force to turn the situation around. His actions pushed the Blood Demon Army onto the defensive, cementing his status as a hero within the sect.
“Good, very good, this is what our Spring Autumn Sect’s holy disciple should be like!” A voice came from above the nine heavens, shaking the battlefield.
Everyone could tell that this was the sect leader’s voice.
Although the sect leader and the other powerhouses were battling above the nine heavens, nothing could escape their senses.
Feng Baiyu had seethed with fury at Duan Jingtian's betrayal, but witnessing Chen Fan killing him brought immense satisfaction. It seemed the Spring Autumn Sect's dire predicament was finally resolving.
On the contrary, the eighteenth blood demon commander's initial satisfaction turned to dismay at Duan Jingtian's death, his expression turned ashen.
They had made full preparations for attacking the Spring Autumn Sect.
After all, if a spy like Duan Jingtian messed things up at a key moment, it would bring about great effects. His outburst was also as they had expected, causing the Spring Autumn Sect to fall into a very dangerous situation.
Alas, they hadn’t anticipated the Spring Autumn Sect to have a monstrous character like Chen Fan. His strength turned the situation around instantly at the last moment as he killed their spy.
“Ah, damn it! Listen, everyone below. Even if this operation fails, you have to kill Chen Fan!”
The eighteenth blood demon commander’s furious roar resounded, revealing his intense frustration.
When they had attacked, they were eighty to ninety percent sure of victory. However, they were about to fail due to a single variable, Chen Fan; they had to eliminate that variable.
“As you command, Sir!” The four-revolution blood demon expert engaged with the law enforcement grand elder swiftly relayed the order and directed additional forces to ensure Chen Fan's death.
Two more blood demon experts broke out of their respective battles and made their way toward Chen Fan’s side.
Now, six experts were besieging Chen Fan. There was one two-revolution expert, two peak one-revolution experts including Young Master Xue Jia, a one-revolution expert, and two peak ninth-level Core Formation realm blood demons.
This lineup was much stronger than the five-man formation earlier. It underscored how eager they were to kill Chen Fan.
Such a lineup could kill even a three-revolution expert, but it was being used to deal with one ninth-level Core Formation realm expert. The entire Great Chu Empire would be shaken if word of this spread.
Once again, the Spring Autumn Sect’s side broke out into cold sweat for Chen Fan.
Facing these six people, Chen Fan also felt pressure rising in his heart. Still, there was no fear. Instead, his aura grew increasingly berserk, and his gaze became incomparably fierce, full of fighting spirit.
“Kill!” Young Master Xue Jia roared furiously. His killing intent shook heaven and earth. A bloody light rose to the skies and an overwhelming sea of blood spread. He unleashed a terrifying attack, hoping to kill Chen Fan at once.
The other five people also struck at the same time.
Every one of those attacks was extremely terrifying, with the power to destroy the stars and the universe. The spectators couldn’t help but feel their scalps tingle and their legs turning to jelly.
Facing the attacks, Chen Fan’s aura surged instead of getting suppressed. His strength also surged, emitting booming noises as the Nine Halls Golden Pagoda flew out, guarding the surroundings.
Regardless of his strength, Chen Fan did not dare to receive their attacks head-on.
After all, this six-man lineup was much stronger than the five-man lineup. Their attacking power had simply skyrocketed, being nearly twice what it was. Even though his Myriad Elephants Divine Art had advanced to the fourteenth layer, he would be injured. It was not worth it.
In such a situation, the smallest of injuries could affect his combat strength. That would lead to very dire and terrifying consequences. Naturally, Chen Fan would not stupidly allow these attacks to reach him.
The Nine Halls Golden Pagoda erupted at once. Bursts of golden lights shone as nine golden pagodas circled Chen Fan, guarding him tightly.
Rumble!
The six people’s attacks landed on the Nine Halls Golden Pagoda, immediately offsetting more than half of the power. The remaining force came through but was unable to injure Chen Fan in the slightest.
Chen Fan simultaneously launched his counterattack.
He stabbed out with his spear, producing a spear light that was shockingly over ten thousand feet long. It pierced the sky and shattered the stars as it blasted toward a peak ninth-level Core Formation realm blood demon.
