Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1435 - Li Yu’s Predicament

After the initial shock subsided, a smile of joy appeared on the skinny man’s face.

“Hahaha, Chen Fan, I didn't expect it to be you. Wonderful, it truly is a case of looking everywhere in vain, only for fortune to fall into your lap! To run into you here, it seems like the heavens really want me to soar to the skies in one go. I’ll also be taking your Immortal Emperor’s legacy!”

Like many, he had also been looking for Chen Fan ever since word of him obtaining an Immortal Emperor’s legacy spread. He wanted to kill Chen Fan and seize the legacy, but too many people had set their sights on him, and Chen Fan was too cunning, always a step ahead of everyone.

The skinny man had wanted to make a move when they were outside the tomb, but the situation didn’t allow for it. So, he had been looking for an opportunity; now, it had presented itself.

With that, his aura spread out at once, sealing off the space around them. This was a golden chance for him. He couldn’t let Chen Fan escape.

The skinny man’s attitude surprised Chen Fan. Then, his lips curled up into an icy arc.

The man wanted to kill him to seize the legacy?

How ridiculous!

Chen Fan approached the skinny man step by step, smiled, and said, “You want the legacy? Well, that’ll depend on whether you have the ability.”

The skinny man grew even more excited. To him, Chen Fan’s words sounded like an admission that he indeed had an Immortal Emperor’s legacy.

“I knew it. You’ve really obtained an Immortal Emperor’s legacy!”

“So what if I did?”

“Hmph, stop talking in circles. I’ll know everything after killing you! Rest assured, I’ll remember your contribution when I soar to the heavens and become a behemoth of the Heavenly Realm!” The skinny man grinned coldly, emanating murderous qi.

Chen Fan smiled coldly, shook his head, and said with a sigh, “What a pity. Greed has blinded you. You have no idea that death is before you.”

“What arrogance! Don’t think that you’re a match for me just because you defeated Fan Tianying. You’re too naïve!” shouted the skinny man coldly. His aura surged to the sky like a peerless ferocious beast had awakened.

Rumble!

The skinny man thrust his spear, piercing through heaven and earth like a poisonous dragon. The attack was enough to reveal his terrifying strength.

However, Chen Fan remained calm and collected and met the attack with a slash of his sword.

Clang!

A loud metallic clash echoed.

The fierce collision sent ripples spreading outward. With a loud boom, cracks appeared in space.

The two were evenly matched, so Chen Fan didn’t fall into a disadvantage at all.

“How is this possible?” The skinny man was horrified.

He didn’t expect his confident strike not to affect Chen Fan at all. This had completely exceeded his expectations. He knew that common sense couldn’t be used to estimate Chen Fan’s strength, but he still didn’t expect Chen Fan to fight him to a draw.

The skinny man used to be a ninth-stage half-immortal, but he suffered a serious injury that made his cultivation level regress. Even so, he was definitely a top existence among other peak eighth-stage half-immortals.

People like Fan Tianying were simply nothing in front of him.

At the same cultivation level, only a Sage’s descendant like Xuan Xing could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

So, even after witnessing Chen Fan crushing the Heavenly Falcon Alliance, he still didn’t care, as he believed that Fan Tianying wouldn’t have been alive if he were in Chen Fan’s place. However, after exchanging blows with Chen Fan, he realized that Chen Fan was now much stronger than before.

All of a sudden, a sense of dread grew in the skinny man’s heart.

Could it be that Chen Fan had concealed his cultivation when facing the Heavenly Falcon Alliance previously?

“Hoho, I was wondering how powerful you were. It turns out that you’re only at this level, yet you dare talk big in front of me. How ridiculous. Your life shall end here today!” Chen Fan laughed coldly, no longer hiding anything. Golden light erupted from him. A powerful oppressive aura swept out, causing the skinny man’s breathing to turn rough.

“You’re perfect for testing how powerful my golden body is now. Take this!”

Chen Fan unleashed a punch at the skinny man, but the punch felt like a crashing comet to the man.

“Break for me!” The skinny man let out a furious roar. Spear light shot out. Heaven and earth shook. Countless laws surged out at once. The laws of the spear Dao constructed a whole new world in an instant, pressing toward Chen Fan with a rumble.

Boom, tch!

However, Chen Fan destroyed the skinny man’s attack in one punch, and the terrifying force landed on the man, sending him flying. A series of noise of his bones and tendons breaking rang out.

“Weak, weak, weak, you’re truly too weak. Die!” 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Chen Fan stepped forward and gave chase, blasting out with another punch.

Bang!

This punch landed squarely on the skinny man. The terrifying fist force instantly destroyed his organs, and all his bones turned to powder.

“Ughhh...”

The skinny man looked up at the incomparably cold-faced Chen Fan with difficulty. Regret finally flashed across the man’s eyes, but it was already too late.

Chen Fan showed no pity. Since the man dared to target him, he deserved to die.

After killing the skinny man, he took away all his fortune and put away the remaining Golden Spirit Netherspace Sand before leaving this tiny space.

Chen Fan flashed speedily through the tomb, releasing his divine will and heading toward the tomb’s core area.

Along the way, he came across all kinds of dark creatures. Many of them were lifeforms born from the laws. The laws that have remained in heaven and earth gained spiritual wisdom after the death of the tomb’s master, forming unique lifeforms.

Suddenly, Chen Fan heard some noise coming from the mountain valley ahead.

He swept over to take a look and discovered a tree in the middle of the valley. Ten fruits hung on the tree’s branches, giving off a tempting scent. Simply inhaling this scent made Chen Fan feel relaxed all over, as if he were absorbing a natural treasure of heaven and earth.

In front of this tree was a group of people, all of whom Chen Fan recognized.

One of them was Li Yu from the Xiao Sect, while the others were from the Twin Prides Alliance, led by one of their alliance leaders, Xuan Xing.

“Li Yu, you can still keep your life intact if you leave now. These Primordial Fruits aren’t something you can lay your hands on.” Xuan Xing looked at Li Yu with a cold smile. The group had Li Yu surrounded.

Li Yu’s face turned dark, and he was extremely furious. He roared, “Xuan Xing, don’t go too far. I discovered this Primordial Fruit Tree first, and I broke the restrictions outside after putting in a lot of effort. You want to reap the benefits just like that? Not happening!”
