Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1439 - Core of the Tomb

Chen Fan didn’t chase after Xuan Xing.

As a Sage’s descendant, Xuan Xing was bound to have countless treasures. Just the immortal vest he wore wasn’t something Chen Fan could destroy with his current strength, unless he used the Vicious Suppressor.

Seeing Xuan Xing flee, the remaining members of the Twin Prides Alliance paled in horror and cursed out loud furiously.

Soon, Li Yu killed them all.

Li Yu walked up to Chen Fan and said sincerely, “Brother Chen, this time, it’s all thanks to you.”

If it weren’t for Chen Fan, he would have had to leave indignantly.

“It’s nothing. It’s something I ought to do. After all, we’re both from the Xiao Sect,” Chen Fan said, waving his hand.

Li Yu nodded, then added, “I would have lost the Primordial Fruits without your help. Of the ten Primordial Fruits, I’ll only take one. The other nine shall go to you.”

His accumulations were already very deep. One Primordial Fruit was enough for him to break through to the ninth-stage half-immortal realm.

More Primordial Fruits would have been nice, but he wasn’t greedy. He knew the one he had was already a favor owed to Chen Fan.

“Take two, Brother Li. I’ll just take the remaining eight.”

“This...”

Chen Fan picked all ten Primordial Fruits with a wave of his hand and sent two of them flying toward Li Yu.

“Don’t refuse, Brother Li. It wouldn’t have been easy for me to defeat Xuan Xing if it weren’t for you holding back the others,” Chen Fan said.

Seeing the fruits, Li Yu was overwhelmed with gratitude and said with a smile, “Then I shan’t argue any further. If you need anything done in the future, I’ll definitely help you without a second thought, Brother Chen.” 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Chen Fan didn’t dwell on this matter and changed the topic. “Brother Li, where are the Alliance Leader and the others?”

“I was separated from them upon entering. As agreed, we’ll each head to the tomb’s core area if we’re separated. That’s where the main contention lies.”

“Alright, then. We’ve already wasted a lot of time. Let’s hurry on our way and head to the tomb’s core area,” Chen Fan said and shot out like an arrow, turning into a streak of light.

Li Yu wasn’t planning on consuming the Primordial Fruit right away to make a breakthrough either. After all, this place wasn’t safe, and there was no telling how much time he would need to achieve his breakthrough. It was better to rendezvous with Xiao Ruyue and the others at the tomb’s core area first.

Both of them moved very quickly, speeding through the ancient emperor’s tomb.

The powerful and ancient law creatures, originally very difficult to deal with, were now no match for Chen Fan at all. He annihilated them one after another with his attacks.

Chen Fan asked, “Brother Li, do you know which ancient emperor is buried in this tomb?”

Li Yu blew up a law creature with a palm strike, shook his head, and said, “I don’t know this either. Although I’ve explored many places in this tomb, I am sure that I’ve just been circling the outer periphery. I’m afraid we’ll have to go to the core area to identify the master of the tomb.”

Chen Fan and Li Yu were both powerful. Chen Fan was already comparable to a ninth-stage half-immortal, and Li Yu was also a peak eighth-stage half-immortal. They swept through the tomb, with none able to resist them.

The two of them were like a sharp knife, piercing through all obstacles without pause as they hurried on their way. They believed that Xiao Ruyue and the others had likely already reached the core area of the tomb.

“Chen Fan, how did you get separated from the Alliance Leader and the others?” Li Yu asked.

“When I was charging into the tomb, a ninth-stage half-immortal suddenly ambushed me. Afterward, he pursued me for a long time, and I only shook him off by relying on the tomb’s environment.”

“I see, but I saw that you defeated Xuan Xing easily. So you must be as strong as a ninth-stage half-immortal.”

“I guess so.”

“That’s great. You can also be considered a ninth-stage half-immortal. That means that our sect now has two ninth-stage half-immortals, making us the strongest among the Five Absolutes. In this competition for the ancient emperor’s legacy, our chances at success have greatly increased.”

Nothing should go wrong for them as long as they head straight for the center of the graveyard. And with Chen Fan’s overwhelming strength, their journey would be a breeze.

The two flew for another three days and nights, passing through the entire graveyard until they arrived at the tomb.

When the two finally arrived at the center, they discovered that the tomb was massive beyond imagination, almost like a continent. The layers of spatial formations here distorted the light, so they couldn’t see what was inside.

“This tomb doesn’t seem to exist in this space-time. It’s like a separate entity.”

It was as if layers of spatial formations were protecting it.

Li Yu narrowed his eyes and said, “This is indeed a separate entity. If I’m not wrong, the entire graveyard was transformed from the ancient emperor’s domain. That’s why so many powerful law creatures were born.”

As a pride of heaven from an Immortal Emperor clan, his horizons were naturally broad, and his knowledge vast.

Chen Fan nodded.

At the Immortal Emperor realm, one’s laws could form a domain; within that domain, its master was unrivaled.

“The tomb must be hidden in layers of space. It’s not as close as it appears.” Chen Fan said, “It’s likely hidden within the cracks between dimensions. We’ll have to pass through them.”

Getting right into it, Chen Fan tore open the space in front of him. Spatial turbulence, obstacles, or whatever were all meaningless to him. He charged forward like an arrow.

Li Yu followed after him hurriedly.

When they entered, they discovered a whole new world. It was simply incomparable to the environment earlier.

As soon as they entered this space, the surrounding laws stirred to life. It was an intense contrast to the outside world, where the laws lay shattered and chaotic.

The laws seemed very active, as if drawn here by some unknown force.

Just as Chen Fan got his foothold, he saw countless powerful law creatures in the surroundings of the tomb executing a technique, forming an incomparably powerful formation.

These law creatures, even the most ordinary of them, were first-stage half-immortals, and a common squad leader was in the fifth or sixth-stage half-immortal realm. It was simply unbelievable.

Li Yu saw this scene and was utterly stunned.

“My god, how can there be so many law creatures here. And they’re all so powerful. It’s said that the larger an Immortal Emperor’s domain, the stronger and more numerous its creatures. These law beings even carry fragments of their master’s memories and can cultivate on their own. They can’t be underestimated. Could it be that the master of this tomb wasn’t just any Immortal Emperor, but one who had reached the pinnacle of that realm?”
