Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1479 - A Storm Rising

Huge waves rippled once more across the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm, as if a bomb had been dropped into a tranquil lake, all because of the sudden emergence of the Brahma Ancient City.

Compared to the Heaven Interception Great Emperor’s ancient tomb, the Brahma Ancient City was on an entirely different level.

After all, the Heaven Interception Great Emperor was only a quasi-Sage close to attaining enlightenment. In contrast, the Brahma Ancient City was said to be a treasure city personally built by the Great Sage Brahma himself—a masterpiece forged with his entire fortune, filled with countless opportunities and priceless relics. It was, without question, leagues beyond the Heaven Interception Great Emperor’s tomb.

Thus, the emergence of the Brahma Ancient City, which was legendary in the people’s eyes, made the entire Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm erupt in excitement.

A legend had become reality, and that alone was enough to drive people mad with desire.

To make matters even more astonishing, news soon spread: several prides of heaven had successfully passed the trials of the Road of Calamity and the great demon guardians, entered the city, gained immortal affinity, and elevated their cultivation.

Rumors also claimed that an ancient divine object, the fabled Sacred Radiance, was hidden within the city.

Every word of it sent waves of frenzy through the crowd.

Ninety-nine percent of those who failed the test of the Road of Calamity hammered their chests in frustration when they heard this news.

That was the Sacred Radiance from the legends: a divine light said to cleanse the body and awaken hidden potential.

After receiving the baptism of the Sacred Radiance, one whose chance of becoming an Immortal Emperor was barely twenty percent might see it soar to eighty or ninety, perhaps even to certainty.

As a result, the people yearned to enter the Brahma Ancient City.

However, the Brahma Ancient City didn’t remain open for long. It closed in just fifteen days; the ancient city’s will forcibly pushed out the remnant. This left many prodigies feeling indignant, especially people like Xie Qingjin and Xuan Yang. If they had passed the great demon guardians’ test sooner, they might have enjoyed the complete baptism of the Sacred Radiance, rather than merely brushing against it for a fleeting moment.

Amidst these swirling rumors, one name once again rose to dominate every conversation across the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm: Chen Fan. For the past two years, his name had echoed through every corner of the realm, and now it resounded louder than ever.

After all, he was the first to pass the test of the Road of Calamity. According to Xie Qingjin and Xuan Yang, Chen Fan had also received the full baptism of the Sacred Radiance. This point alone stirred the feelings of the people of the entire Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm, making them feel immense jealousy.

They were all wondering on what basis Chen Fan alone received all the benefits.

Even in the Heaven Interception Great Emperor’s ancient tomb, Chen Fan had obtained both the legacy and the Wheel of Myriad Laws.

Now, in the Brahma Ancient City, Chen Fan had received the baptism of the Sacred Radiance.

By what right did fate favor him so completely?

Was Chen Fan really a child of fortune favored by the heavens?

“By what right?! By what right is it all Chen Fan? He obtained all of the benefits in the Heaven Interception Great Emperor’s ancient tomb. Now, he received the baptism of the Sacred Radiance in the Brahma Ancient Realm. Why?”

“That’s right. I heard that Ji Lanshan, Xuan Yang, and the others arrived a step too late and barely caught a glimpse of the Sacred Radiance before it vanished.”

“I heard Chen Fan’s potential has been fully awakened after the baptism; his strength must have soared again. He’s too lucky!” 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Countless people buzzed with discussion; their words were sour with jealousy.

In this kind of atmosphere, a dark current stirred.

Soon, word spread that the Twin Prides Alliance and the Evil Palace, two top forces, had joined forces and were marching toward the Xiao Sect.

The two absolute forces soon arrived before the Xiao Sect’s headquarters.

“Heavens, the Twin Prides Alliance and the Evil Palace are really attacking the Xiao Sect.”

“Why are they doing this? Why are the Twin Prides Alliance and the Evil Palace suddenly preparing to attack the Xiao Sect? This makes no sense.”

“What are the Twin Prides Alliance and the Evil Palace trying to do?”

Countless experts came after hearing the news, observing from afar. The Twin Prides Alliance and the Evil Palace’s troops stood in the sky, looking down coldly at the Xiao Sect’s base.

After all, these were three of the absolute forces. The slightest movement from them would set off a huge earthquake in the entire Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm.”

Within the Xiao Sect, their leader Xiao Ruyue walked out with a frosty expression. She stared coldly at Xuan Yang and Xie Qingjin.

“Xuan Yang, Xie Qingjin, what are you doing at my Xiao Sect? What are you trying to do?”

Although Li Yu had already broken through to the ninth-stage half-immortal realm, raising the Xiao Sect’s strength significantly, they were still no match for the Twin Prides Alliance and the Evil Palace combined.

Furthermore, Xuan Xing and the Evil Palace’s Duan Qing had also successfully broken through to the ninth-stage half-immortal realm; now, the Xiao Sect’s disadvantage was even clearer.

“What are we trying to do?” Xuan Yang smiled coldly and said, “Xiao Ruyue, hand Chen Fan over. Otherwise, your Xiao Sect will be wiped out today.”

Xiao Ruyue’s face turned ashen, realizing the situation at once. She snorted and said, “Hmph, Chen Fan left the Xiao Sect long ago. Find him yourselves. Demanding him from me? How ridiculous.”

“Xiao Ruyue, you make it sound so nice. You claim that Chen Fan has long since left your sect, but is that really the case? You were still secretly exchanging flirting glances at the Brahma Ancient Tree. Am I wrong?” Xie Qingjin sneered coldly.

Xiao Ruyue trembled in anger.

What did he mean? That she had been flirting with Chen Fan?

“Be honest, Xiao Ruyue. Where are you hiding, Chen Fan? Hmph, we risked our lives fighting inside the Heaven Interception Great Emperor’s ancient tomb, while he shamelessly snatched our legacy and the artifact. He must be handed over!” Xuan Yang said righteously.

Xiao Ruyue’s expression became extremely ugly. She ridiculed, “Xuan Yang, I’m afraid not even you believe the words coming out of your mouth. I can’t believe that the descendant of Sage Xuan would actually be so shameless.”

In the face of Xiao Ruyue’s ridicule, Xuan Yang showed no change in his expression and said, “Say whatever you want. If you don’t hand Chen Fan over today, don’t blame us for being ruthless and disregarding your status as a descendant of Sage Xiao.

“If Chen Fan were really here, would you have dared to come cause trouble?” Xiao Ruyue said coldly.

Suddenly, cold sneers rang out from the void.

“Hehe, what if you include us?”

Then, several figures appeared in all directions.

These newcomers were all, without a doubt, ninth-stage half-immortals, and Fan Tianying was among them.

Fan Tianying had also successfully broken through to the ninth-stage half-immortal realm. Although Chen Fan had killed off half of the Heavenly Falcon Alliance’s people back then, they did not disband. They recruited some more people to fill up their ranks.

“Fan Tianying, Ren Kuangsheng, Jun Mu, Wan Shouyi, Huang Zhong, Zhuang Hong.”

Xiao Ruyue’s gaze swept across these people’s faces, her irises contracting violently. She couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.

The crowd in the distance also immediately erupted into an uproar upon seeing these people.
