Chapter 236 - A Devastating Thrust

Chapter 236 - A Devastating Thrust

Chen Fan dealt with three from the group with one attack each. Wielding the Heaven Piercing Spear, he stood proudly in the air, looking at them ruthlessly with a cold smile. “You lot think you can kill me? Wishful thinking! Now, I’ll send you three to reunite with them!”

Swish!

The Wings of Rain Dragon sprouted on his back as his voice fell. With one powerful flap, a strong gust of wind surged.

Chen Fan turned into a streak of light, crossing ten thousand meters in the blink of an eye, appearing in front of Huang Jie.

“Die!” he uttered a single syllable; it resembled the call from the grim reaper.

The Heaven Piercing Spear shattered the heavens, annihilating the sun, the moon, and the stars. It echoed like the cry of a deity, signaling the demise of a god.

Huang Jie's face showed terror, his eyes reflecting boundless fear.

He instantly ignored his internal injuries and drove his cultivation, trying to make a final gambit. Even his primeval vessel had manifested, burning his primeval force.

Still, a squish sound rang out, like paper being torn.

Huang Jie’s movements froze, and he broke like a mirror. He couldn’t even cry out.

Chen Fan didn’t pause. With a flash, he rushed toward Hong Tao.

Hong Tao’s complexion was ghastly pale, without the slightest hint of pink.

Killing them was truly as simple as slaughtering poultry for Chen Fan.

“No, don’t...”

Hong Tao did manage to cry out, only two words, though.

Lei Tao’s complexion had long changed colors.

Huang Jie and Hong Tao had both died instantly; he was the only one left.

As Chen Fan approached Lei Tao, an ominous aura descended. Lei Tao's resolve wavered, and fear took root in his heart.

In his eyes, Chen Fan resembled a merciless god of death, an unstoppable force.

However, Lei Tao was at the peak of the seventh level. He was a core disciple. He was an elder of the Heaven’s Alliance. He quickly suppressed the wavering in his heart, replacing it with boundless rage.

“Wind Forest Fire Mountain!” [1]

Nine brilliant suns rose at his back, illuminating the world.

As they spun, a tumultuous power surged from within him, akin to a roaring furnace.

Chen Fan paid no heed, unleashing his full strength. All three of his illusory primeval vessels spun, surpassing the seventh level of the Yuanfu realm in power. Even Lei Tao was not exempt from the overwhelming force.

It was only a simple and crude stab, but it made the space tremble, seemingly having difficulty enduring the might of Chen Fan's spear. The air recoiled, surging toward Lei Tao like an impending monstrous wave. New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Lei Tao’s cultivation ignited the space before him, transforming it into the image of Wind Forest Fire Mountain. However, it was in vain under Chen Fan’s Heaven Piercing Spear.

The Crimson Flame Blade in his hand transformed into a mass of blazing fire, burning fiercely. The air currents burned to the point of producing a sharp hiss.

“Die for me, you little bastard!”

Lei Tao’s aura reached its peak.

The primeval force within his vessel and the vessel itself stirred with flames. Endless power poured into him, igniting raging flames on him. His Crimson Flame Blade echoed the cry of a golden crow, its flames resembling three-legged golden crows. As he slashed it down, the blade qi flowed like silk, resembling a sea tide, sweeping outward.

“Parting Waves Flaming Slash!”

This was Lei Tao’s strongest move.

With one slash, mountains burned, and seas boiled. The space within a ten-mile radius seemed to turn into a sea of flames. A streak of blade qi suddenly emerged from those flames, parting the sea of flames.

Chen Fan felt his muscles tighten under this slash. He felt a burning pain on his skin. An unparalleled flaming blade qi was reflected in his eyes, tearing through the space and coming straight at him.

“Come at me!”

However, Chen Fan was overjoyed to see his prey.

His strength instantly poured out like a flood. Even the skies let out a furious roar.

Rumble!

A deafening noise resounded, shaking heaven and earth. Even the stars were trembling.

Lei Tao slashed out. His entire body was drenched in sweat, but that instantly evaporated.

His complexion was ashen. The flames burning in his primeval vessel started extinguishing. He was already at the point of exhaustion.

Bent at the waist, he gazed at Chen Fan, who was enveloped in flames

This slash should be enough to kill Chen Fan, right?

However...

Poof tch!

A spear tip suddenly extended out from the flames. The blazing inferno seemed to have encountered a downpour; it extinguished immediately.

Chen Fan thrust his spear and stabbed the middle of Lei Tao’s brow.

“You...”

Lei Tao was in utter disbelief.

He stared fixedly at Chen Fan, but the force erupting from the Heaven Piercing Spear tore his soul. The light in his eyes and the fire in his soul instantly went out.

An exceptional genius at the peak-stage seventh-level Yuanfu realm perished just like that.
