“Damn it, you actually killed Jin Guanglie!”
Wang Tengfei looked at the bloody hole between Jin Guanglie’s eyebrows. Fresh blood trickled out of the hole; he was dead.
His face still had that expression of disbelief, seemingly still finding his fate unexpected.
The other man and woman’s expressions also changed drastically, their faces contorted with hatred.
"What? Am I not allowed to kill him?" Chen Fan couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. "How amusing. You want to kill me, yet I'm not allowed to defend myself? Must I stand here obediently and let you finish the job? Or did you not expect me to fight back?"
Chen Fan snapped his fingers, a cold smile playing on his lips. “If you want to kill me, be prepared to face death yourself. Acting so arrogantly when you're weak, relying solely on the reputation of the Floating Cloud Sword Sect. What fools you are!”
“Good, very well said!” Wang Tengfei slowly raised his head and locked eyes with Chen Fan. He looked calm again, but the atmosphere around him felt like the calm before the storm. Chen Fan’s eyelids twitched violently, feeling like a venomous snake targeted him.
Among these four disciples, Wang Tengfei seemed the most dangerous. His earlier attack had revealed that he was much stronger than Jin Guanglie.
"You're right," Wang Tengfei coldly remarked. “Acting out without the strength to back yourself up is simply courting death. Now, are you prepared to die?” His words were accompanied by a surge of killing intent that pierced the skies, sending a chill down everyone's spines.
As soon as his voice trailed off, his sword emitted a low hum.
A blinding sword light, resembling the sun, flashed instantaneously, causing a tremendous explosion that shook the earth and echoed like a roaring fire dragon. Everything in its path was incinerated; even the gravel melted.
“Great Sun Universe Sword!” exclaimed the two disciples of the Floating Cloud Sword Sect in shock.
“Senior Brother Wang Tengfei is using that at the start? He must be truly furious. It is a profound tier martial skill that harnesses the essence of the sun's fire, possessing the power to burn mountains and boil seas.”
Chen Fan immediately felt the surrounding temperature skyrocketing. It felt like he was in a furnace.
Drawing upon his cultivation, Chen Fan shielded himself from this scorching heat. He narrowed his eyes as sharp beams cracked his qi shield, threatening to pierce through. Chen Fan struck out with a palm, making the air churn violently like raging sea waves.
A series of explosions rang out as Chen Fan's Chakravarti Seal clashed against Wang Tengfei's Great Sun Universe Sword.
Chen Fan threw out another punch, unleashing a terrifying force that shook the very fabric of space and finally extinguished the sword light.
“Great Sun Universe, Thousand Miles Scorched Earth!”
However, Wang Tengfei had already unleashed a second attack.
The world instantly became a scorched earth spanning a thousand miles, melting the ground.
Waves of qi condensed into fiery wolves, foxes, lions, leopards, tigers, and other demonic beasts racing across the land.
Wherever these flaming creatures passed, the earth turned red and ignited, resembling an apocalyptic scene from the depths of hell.
“Thunderclap Sword, Thunder Descend!
Chen Fan felt a hint of pressure.
Wang Tengfei’s cultivation was at the peak of the seventh level, but his strength was comparable to an eight-level expert.
Harnessing his cultivation, the primeval qi within Chen Fan's dantian surged like a vast sea, rushing through his wide meridians with great force. It spewed out from his head, forming a cloud of primeval qi and enveloping the area.
Lightning swam within this cloud of primeval qi. Chen Fan raised Killing Wind high and brought it down with a powerful thrust. Immediately, streaks of thunderous sword light whistled down, aiming for the flaming demon beasts.
These thunderous sword lights struck the flaming demon beasts, resulting in earth-shaking explosions. The hot, dusty wind swept out, spreading in all directions.
Qin Yao and the others had no choice but to activate their cultivation, creating a layer of primeval qi to block the shockwave.
“Great Sun Universe, Great Sun Skyfire!”
Wang Tengfei’s expression didn’t change in the slightest. With his long sword as his guide, he tapped into the power of the great sun in the sky.
Streaks of flames in a streamlined shape descended from the sky, turning this area into the inside of a volcano. The gravel melted and bubbled constantly.
Wang Tengfei swung his arm once more, making the flames of the sun condense on his sword. They transformed into a thin, blazing light that burned through the air. When it approached Chen Fan, it seemed to come alive, violently spinning and erupting, transforming into a terrifying sea of flames.
Qin Yao’s heart tightened. She swiftly moved, intending to save Chen Fan. However, two sharp whooshes resounded through the air as two streaks of sword qi slashed before her, halting her in her tracks.
“No need to worry, Senior Sister.” Chen Fan’s voice rang out from within the sea of flames.
Chen Fan found himself completely engulfed by the scorching flames of the great sun, their intensity threatening to reduce him to ashes.
The Great Sun Universe Sword was indeed worthy of being a profound tier cultivation technique, surpassing all expectations.
Although Wang Tengfei's limited cultivation prevented him from fully unleashing the sword's power, even at sixty percent strength, it posed a significant threat to Chen Fan.
“Heaven Seizing Art, devour it!”
Just as the situation turned dire, Chen Fan activated the Heaven Seizing Art.
This ancient technique allowed him to seize and devour everything in heaven and earth, including the formidable flames of the great sun.
Immediately, Chen Fan devoured the wisps of the sun's energy. He began burning, and flames erupted from his pores.
Chen Fan was undergoing a drastic transformation at this moment.
Under the influence of the great sun's energy, his Myriad Elephants Divine Art was improving at an explosive speed, instantly breaking through to the fifth layer.
Wang Tengfei would never have imagined that Chen Fan would use the flames to temper his body, a daring act that seemed like a death wish.
Nevertheless, Chen Fan had taken the risk, harnessing the power of the sun's flames to refine his physique and experience an instantaneous surge in strength.
Chen Fan abruptly learned something new; a wild look of joy appeared on his face. “Heaven Seizing Furnace...”
Within Chen Fan, his qi and blood circulated in a distinct pattern, forming the shape of a furnace.
Apparently, a Heaven Seizing Furnace would form in Chen Fan after his cultivation reached the Yuanfu realm, allowing him to refine everything in the world and turn it into a tonic for him.
However, the current Chen Fan couldn't reach this realm.
The only reason he understood the power of the Heaven Seizing Art was that he had absorbed the flames of the great sun. Right now, not even the embryo of the furnace had coalesced in him.
Suddenly, a powerful aura emanated from Chen Fan.
The sun's flames were immediately suppressed, and with a loud rumble, Chen Fan emerged from the sea of flames, creating a shockwave that made the air explode.
Wang Tengfei had no time to react before he felt like an ancient sacred mountain had struck him. His sword flew out of his hand, and he flew backward like a bird with broken wings, spewing blood into the air.
With the Myriad Elephants Divine Art reaching the fifth layer, Chen Fan’s physique had become as strong as an ancient elephant.
Just imagine the impact of colliding with an ancient elephant!
“Junior Brother Tengfei!”
“Senior Brother Wang!”
Those two Floating Cloud Sword Sect disciples had been keeping Qin Yao at bay. They were shocked to see Wang Tengfei flying a hundred meters away. They immediately cried out in alarm and transformed into blurs, rushing over to him.
