Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1489 - Nightmare Returns

For Xuan Yang and the others, Xue Lie’s death was only equivalent to the loss of a great general.

However, getting the Void Shuttle seized by Chen Fan was a catastrophe, threatening to resurrect their original nightmare. Although they had severely wounded Chen Fan, he still had the strength to kill them in an instant.

The corner of Chen Fan’s mouth curled up into a cruel arc. His voice rang out like a chilling death wind straight from the depths of hell.

“Now, I’ll play with you properly.”

“Everyone, fight with all you have, kill him!” Boundless killing intent surged in Xuan Yang’s eyes, spilling into reality as he struck instantly.

If they couldn’t defeat Chen Fan even in his weakened state and instead fell to his counterattack, they would be unworthy of their lofty reputations.

Resplendent immortal light shot out from two Dao diagrams, pressing down on heaven and earth as they swept across.

Boom!

A spear pierced through the universe, its terrifying aura locked firmly on Chen Fan.

Clang!

Wan Chengyao’s immortal saber unleashed blinding saber lights in an instant. Every slash seemed as if it could cleave through hell and slay its master. Endless light whistled out.

Rumble!

A hegemon’s silhouette stood proudly in the air behind Xiao Shaoyun; both arms unleashed the Hegemon Ascension Fist in a frenzied barrage.

Six terrifying attacks bombarded Chen Fan in an instant, shattering heaven and earth. Qi waves swept wildly, leveling countless trees.

Swish!

However, Chen Fan activated the Void Shuttle, disappearing from everyone’s sight.

“Not good!”

Xuan Yang and the others’ expressions changed drastically.

“Retreat!”

Wan Shouyi sensed the approach of death, as if the grim reaper were drawing near; his scalp prickled and his muscles tensed, heart plummeting into an abyss. Even before he saw Chen Fan’s next move, he knew he was the target.

Wan Shouyi retreated frantically, executing the Blood Escape Technique. Near simultaneously, the space before him exploded. Heaven and earth went dark in an instant, the universe shattering.

Within the boundless darkness, a large hand filled with demonic might came smashing through the air. Countless demonic gods in the world let out the voice of sin.

“This is the Palm Seal of Sin! A supreme secret technique with a total of twelve forms. Executing them in a chain, it drags people into boundless sin!” exclaimed someone in shock.

Chi!

However, a ray of light suddenly shone within that boundless darkness. Distant at first, it magnified rapidly, becoming a sacred sword of unyielding brilliance that split the Palm Seal of Sin apart.

Puchi!

Immediately afterward, the darkness dissipated.

The crowd saw an arrow of blood spurting into the void. Wan Shouyi, who had fled using the Blood Escape Technique, froze in the air and was split into two under their gazes.

Before the crowd could recover from the shock of Wan Shouyi's death, a miserable scream echoed in heaven and earth, drawing the crowd’s gazes.

“Ah!”

Ren Kuangsheng’s lower half plummeted, while his head flew into the air. Countless streaks of sword qi shot out, shredding his head and body.

“Hiss, hiss.”

Countless people sucked in a breath of cold air.

In the blink of an eye, two ninth-stage half-immortals had perished. The crowd didn’t even get a clear look at how Chen Fan did it.

Suddenly, Xiao Shaoyun’s horrified voice rang out, almost crying. “I was wrong! I was wrong! Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! I’m the Xiao Clan’s hope for rising into power. I can’t die! I beg you, mercy please! I’ll leave now, Chen Fan. I was wrong. Spare my life!”

Xiao Shaoyun was scared out of his wits. He begged for mercy repeatedly as he flew into the distance, trying to escape from this place.

It was too terrifying.

It could scare a person to death.

Wan Shouyi and Ren Kuangsheng’s instantaneous deaths completely broke Xiao Shaoyun.

The Wheel of Myriad Laws, the ancient emperor’s legacy, human elixir—all of this didn’t matter to him anymore. He only wanted to leave this place alive now.

He was the most talented person among the Xiao Clan’s younger generation. He was a pride of heaven, perhaps even a candidate for enlightenment, fated to lead his people back to glory; he could not die here.

Xuan Yang and Xie Qingjin immediately roared when they saw Xiao Shaoyun scared out of his wits and escaping.

“Xiao Shaoyun, come back!”

This fool, did he really think he could still leave now?

If they fought together, they still had a tiny hope of survival.

If they separated, then only death awaited them.

Predictably, Chen Fan appeared behind Xiao Shaoyun; expressionless, he reached out, hand descending with the certainty of death itself.

Poof!

Xiao Shaoyun’s head was removed from his shoulders in an instant.

Xuan Yang, watching Chen Fan pluck another life like a farmer picking ripe fruit, felt his own heart convulse with dread. Another companion, gone.

“Xie Qingjin, Wan Chengyao, hurry, stay together. We must not let him pick us off one by one!”

A mournful realization crept in: they were peerless experts at their peak, invincible in the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm, yet against Chen Fan, they were no better than insects.

He and Xie Qingjin had plotted for nearly two years, convincing ten other ninth-stage half-immortals, and even prepared a hidden card, like Xue Lie. They had clearly wounded Chen Fan severely, but why was he still so terrifying, killing them as easily as slaughtering poultry?

Regret grew, heavy as stone; not regret for making Chen Fan their enemy, but for failing to end his life before he could mature. It was a mistake that led to ruin.

“Only three of them are left.”

Countless people in the surroundings watched as Xuan Yang, Xie Qingjin, and Wan Chengyao stuck together, united by terror.

Who could have imagined things to end up this way?

Chen Fan’s killing spree had struck fear into them. Even after severely injuring Chen Fan, he still possessed the strength to kill them easily.

Strong.

That was the only word they could use to describe Chen Fan. His strength had exceeded their imaginations.

They couldn’t comprehend how such a freakish monster could appear below the immortal realm.

“Sticking together, huh?” 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Chen Fan appeared, his indifferent gaze falling on the trio.

The trio had their backs against one another, staring at him as if facing a great enemy, feeling extremely tense.

“That’s fine with me. This way, I won’t have to worry about you running away.”

Chen Fan didn’t mind that the trio was huddled together to better protect themselves. He put away the Void Shuttle and approached them step by step.

A formless pressure descended upon them. This pressure could drive a person crazy if their will wasn’t firm enough.

However, the trio were all peerless prides of heaven and had very firm wills. They stared fixedly at Chen Fan as he drew near. They gripped their weapons tightly, law power surged within them, ready to launch a fatal strike at Chen Fan.
