Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 669 - Seven Eccentrics of Plum Mountain

Chen Fan had carved out a bloody path and risen to great fame.

Although many still coveted his treasures, pretty much no one dared to make a move unless they were at either the eighth or the ninth level.

Everyone knew that Chen Fan grew stronger with every battle. Taking down eighth-level Divine Nascent realm experts was no longer difficult for him, and even ninth-level experts would struggle to bring him down.

Thus, only powerful figures at the eighth or ninth level were still searching for Chen Fan.

Although many Heavenly Star realm figures were also tempted, they didn’t dare to act recklessly. Intervening would break the rules, and True Martial Academy was too terrifying.

So, many Heavenly Star realm experts waited for those rogue cultivators and old devils to succeed in killing Chen Fan and taking his martial arts. They could then swoop in, kill the old devils, and claim the benefits for themselves.

True Martial Academy had opened eight ancient roads as trials for geniuses seeking to join. Killing was tacitly allowed.

It wasn’t just the trial participants who were fair game—rogue cultivators and old devils could also act, as long as they followed the rules.

This was the academy’s way of raising the difficulty for those undergoing the trial, something they silently approved of.

With less than two months remaining in the one-year trial period, True Martial Academy’s grand opening was fast approaching.

The younger generation of experts dared not waste any time, rushing toward True Martial City. Missing the academy’s opening would mean being deemed unworthy of its gates.

The Shattered Star Domain, a stronghold of the eastern continent, bordered True Martial City.

At the edge of the Shattered Star Domain, a figure stood on a mountaintop, looking into the distance ahead.

“The Shattered Star Domain is just ahead. I can step into True Martial City after crossing the Shattered Star Domain, and this trial journey will come to an end!”

This person was none other than Chen Fan.

Crossing the Shattered Star Domain and entering True Martial City was not a difficult task for Chen Fan.

Given his current cultivation, he could traverse an entire domain in ten days to half a month—assuming, of course, there were no obstacles. But for Chen Fan, a smooth journey was unlikely.

After all, many people had their eyes on him, coveting his secrets.

The Shattered Star Domain was the final opportunity for these people to make their move.

Once he entered True Martial City, there was nothing they could do even if they were green with envy.

Chen Fan expected this last leg of the journey to be the most difficult.

Even so, he was not afraid.

He was now at the seventh-level Divine Nascent realm, and his Hegemonic Golden Body had also risen to level 6. He had also mastered the Flood Dragon Fist Scripture, and his Green Lotus Sword Qi advanced to the ninth layer.

Even a ninth-level Divine Nascent realm cultivator was no longer a threat to him.

At the Huaxu Ancient State, he exchanged thirty moves with a ninth-level Divine Nascent realm expert with only sixth-level Divine Nascent realm cultivation and escaped with light injuries.

If he met the other party again, Chen Fan was confident he could kill them.

Without hesitation, he soared through the sky, streaking towards the Shattered Star Domain like a bolt of lightning. No obstacle, no matter how great, would stand in his way.

As soon as he stepped into the Shattered Star Domain, a massive hand—one that could cover the sky—flew over and grabbed at Chen Fan as if trying to grab a helpless chick.

Rumble!

The wind howled, the clouds churned, and the air itself seemed to collapse under the pressure.

Chen Fan’s eyes flashed with a fierce, cold light as he countered with his Northern Star Reaper Hand. It clashed with the giant hand in a violent explosion that shattered space itself, turning the world into chaos.

The earth quaked, mountains shook—it was as if the apocalypse had arrived.

Rumble!

A cold, indifferent voice rang out, and a group of silhouettes appeared ahead.

“You’ve finally shown yourself, Chen Fan. Hand over your secrets, and we can spare your life. Otherwise, there is no path for you today—whether in heaven or earth, death is your only destination!"

The leader of the group was a black-robed elder with an aquiline nose and small eyes, exuding a powerful aura of the ninth-level Divine Nascent realm.

Accompanying him were six others, all boasting formidable eighth-level Divine Nascent realm cultivation.

The seven boundlessly powerful auras surged and shook the heavens.

These seven people were the Shattered Star Domain’s famous Seven Eccentrics of Plum Mountain.

“You seven pieces of trash think you can kill me?” Chen Fan looked at them indifferently, showing no sign of panic. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Before breaking through to the seventh-level Divine Nascent realm, he would have certainly struggled against them, but now they were the perfect opponents for him to test his strength.

The Seven Eccentrics spoke in unison, disregarding Chen Fan as if they were guaranteed victory.

“As arrogant as rumored! We know you’ve escaped a ninth-level Divine Nascent realm expert before, but today you’re facing us Seven Eccentrics of Plum Mountain! Your tragic fate is sealed! Your legend ends here!”

“Exactly! We’re generous enough to offer you a chance to live, considering your difficult path in cultivation. Don’t make a foolish mistake—hand over your secrets now!”

“No need to waste your breath on him. He dares to call us trash, then he’s destined to die!”

“That’s right, he must pay the price of death just for insulting us!”

“......”

“You speak too much nonsense!”

Chen Fan did not have that much time to waste on these people. With a swift motion, he charged at them.

As Chen Fan’s cultivation erupted, the space immediately shook. A terrifying aura spread out.

Rumble!

“What Seven Eccentrics of Plum Mountain, I’ll send you all to hell today and turn you into the Seven Corpses of Plum Mountain!”

Chen Fan attacked before even finishing his sentence, unleashing a Northern Star Reaper Hand. An intent of death filled the space, causing people to despair.

“Get him!” shouted the leading black-robed elder. His aura rose to the sky, launching a terrifying divine light that blasted forth, tearing through space.

The other six eccentrics didn’t hold back either. Their cultivation swelled and stirred, each using their own methods to attack.

Half the sky was immediately filled with huge explosions.

Rumble!

Terrifying qi waves crashed down like a deluge from the heavens, shaking the earth and fracturing mountains beneath them.

Someone shouted icily, “Die!”

A shocking halberd light tore through the sky, slashing through the chaos, and instantly descended. The Seven Eccentrics of Plum Mountain turned pale with fright. They hurriedly cast their defensive techniques to defend themselves.

Boom, tch!

In an instant, their defenses shattered under Chen Fan’s overwhelming might, sending all seven flying as they coughed up blood.
