Chapter 887 The World Was Shocked
The Blade Qi flashed by a million miles.
The Tianlan Region was countless states away from the Beihan Region, but Chen Fan used only a few seconds to get there. The slash went from Old China Town through twenty seven states, including the Yan State, the Yue State, the Lin State and the Shang State, and carried the supreme True Energy Chen Fan had been cultivating since he became a Golden Core Cultivator.
The thunderclouds in a thousand miles cracked open.
Countless fiend cultivators died.
The seven Fiend Lords had been split in half before they could even react.
“Oh my god!”
Many cultivators were dumbfounded. Even the elders and seniors of the Lin family couldn’t believe it. The fiend cultivators even froze into statues.
“The Fiend Lords died just like that? How is that possible?”
Many elders of the Heart Devouring Sect, the Blood Fiend Sect and the Thousand Ghost Sect shook their heads and couldn’t accept what they had just seen.
The seven Fiend Lords were the masters of the seven fiend sects in the Savage Wastes. The weakest one among them was still comparable to Sword King and Zhao Juexian, and was stronger than a peak-stage Golden Core Grand Perfected Cultivator. As for the powerful Lord Blood God, it was mysterious and was said to be half a step away from becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
How could those seven peerless Overlords be killed so easily?
“This has to be an illusion. Someone must have cast a spell!” a lot of Fiend Perfected Cultivators said.
The leader of the Lin family jumped excitedly.
“This must be the Overlord from the Wang family. Only members of such a historical family can be this powerful! I wonder if it’s their elder, their leader or the Ancestral Patriarch.”
He was about to ask the guards to open the array and greet the Overlord of the Wang family.
“Stop! This doesn’t seem right,” Ancestral Patriarch Xuankong yelled, “I think I’ve seen this blade aura somewhere.”
“Right, the Wang family is known for their spear arts, not sword arts. He shouldn’t be someone from the Wang family.” Ancestral Patriarch Xiankong also shook his head.
While everyone was in doubt.
The blade aura dissipated and a young man with black hair appeared.
He looked handsome. His hair was long and he was wearing a black outfit. There was a glittering broken sword in his hand. Nobody would have imagined that was the sword that went through the arrays of the seven fiend sects, killed thousands of fiend cultivators and split the seven Fiend Lords in half.
The young man stood arrogantly in the sky while looking at the cultivators and everyone else. Such a fierce energy frightened countless fiend cultivators and Perfected Cultivators; none of them dared to make a move.
“Who is he? Is he an elite of the Wang family?” the leader of the Lin family wondered.
A junior of the Lin family suddenly shouted, “Isn’t he Chen Beixuan, the Chinese Perfected Cultivator of the Beihan Region?”
“Yes, the broken sword in his hand is the ‘Sky-severing Sword!’ It used to be in the hands of the Chinese Grand Elder, Xie Changying. I’ve seen it in the Beihan Region,” another elder also said.
After hearing what he said, all doubts had been cleared.
“I see. No wonder the blade aura looks so familiar to me. It’s from Xie Changying’s Sky-severing Sword. I heard that it’s already broken and can’t really show the power of a real Heavenly Treasure, which is why Xie Changying lost several times to the Blood Fiend Sect. I can’t believe the slash today would be like an attack from a Heavenly Lord. Has the Sky-severing Sword recovered?” Ancestral Patriarch Xuankong said.
“Master, should we invite him in?” A brawny elder asked.
The hall was in silence.
Many people of the Lin family looked a bit embarrassed.
Chen Fan had killed Ancestral Patriarch Takong and the others, which led to the invasion of the five regions by the seven fiend sects of the Savage Wastes. They should be condemning Chen Fan, but the Lin family had been backed into a corner at the moment and Chen Fan was indeed powerful. They didn’t know what to do.
The leader of the Lin family, who was wearing a golden robe, smiled wryly and said, “Well, we should make a plan first. The troops of the fiend sects are still here and we’re not sure if the seven Fiend Lords are really dead or not. What if they destroy the city after we open the array?”
Countless people inside and outside of the city were in shock.
Chen Fan glanced over the bodies of the seven Fiend Lords and said, “I’m only here to kill Lord Blood God. It’s none of your business. Step aside now, or don’t blame me for being merciless.”
“Crack!”
The seven Fiend Lords used their Fiend Arts to get their bodies back to one piece again and they stared at Chen Fan viciously.
Nobody would feel happy after being slashed without a reason.
Chen Fan had already expected this, so he wasn’t surprised at all. Golden Core Cultivators were hard to kill, let alone seven Overlords as powerful as the elites on the Longevity Roll. Those Fiend Lords were all good at using Fiend Arts and had all kinds of ways to keep themselves alive. Lord Blood God could only be killed with special tactics.
“Do you think we’ll listen to you? Who do you think we are?”
The Ancestral Patriarch of the Heart Devouring Sect sneered.
“Your Sword Qi went thirty thousand feet and you even slayed the seven Fiend Lords. How powerful! When did the Tianlan Region have such a peerless Overlord? You have more courage than Xiankong and Xuankong,” War Fiend Lord said.
“Brother, he isn’t someone from the Tianlan Region, but the Chinese Perfected Cultivator who helped us! The broken sword in his hand is the ‘Sky-severing Sword,’ a Heavenly Treasure of the Chinese! Perfected Cultivator Chen is here for me!”
Lord Blood God smiled.
He also had black hair and looked like a sixteen-year-old handsome man. However, his skin was so white that he seemed like a dead person.
If he didn’t say anything, no one would have known this young man was the famous Lord Blood God.
“Chen Beixuan?”
The Fiend Lords were startled.
Chen Fan’s name had circulated across regions and even people deep in the Savage Wastes had heard about him. He had killed Sword King, destroyed the royal city and even slayed Ancestral Patriarch Takong and some others. The world regarded him as the top cultivator around the five regions.
But what the Fiend Lords knew the clearest was that Chen Fan had killed the Lords of the five regions and given them the chance of invading the Tianlan Region.
“Perfected Cultivator Chen, you did the seven Fiend Sects a favor. I still haven’t thanked you yet!”
The short Ancestral Patriarch Heart Devouring, who had green messy hair, an enormous head and small limbs, gave a friendly smile, but he seemed to be mocking Chen Fan.
The other Fiend Lords moved around Chen Fan quietly and blocked his way out.
They couldn’t be relaxed while facing the well-known cultivator among the five regions. The Sky-severing Sword in Chen Fan’s hand caught everyone’s attention. They all felt the Sword Qi that went thirty thousand miles. If it didn’t use much of its energy to break through the layers of arrays, the seven Fiend Lords might have died.
“Leave, or die!” Chen Fan said coldly.
He only stared at Lord Blood God and ignored the other six.
The seven Fiend Lords were enraged.
“Do you really want to be our enemy? We’re not as weak as Ancestral Patriarch Takong.” Hundred Poison Elder chuckled.
“Clang!”
Chen Fan immediately pulled out the Sky-severing Sword.
The clanging sound of the sword reverberated. The Sky-severing Sword shone brighter. It started to become as powerful as it used to be, radiating a terrifying energy.
“Let’s go! We can’t let his Heavenly Treasure recover. Otherwise, none of us will be able to stop him!” Lord Blood God said viciously.
Ancestral Patriarch Heart Devouring, Hundred Poison Elder, War Fiend Lord and the others exerted themselves. Seven powerful Fiend Qis quickly flashed towards Chen Fan.
A Heavenly Treasure was too powerful. If it was completely awakened, it would be comparable to a Heavenly Lord! By then, everything in a thousand miles would be crushed and even the seven Fiend Lords would be unable to resist its terrifying attack.
Only Lord Blood God doubted.
Wasn’t the Sky-severing Sword broken? Why could it fully operate? How did Chen Fan get out of the Two World Peak? How did he become so powerful all of a sudden?
And yet, there was no time to dwell upon it.
“Boom!”
A powerful Fiend Qi filled a ten mile radius.
Many fiend cultivators couldn’t escape in time and were torn to pieces. Only a few Golden Core Perfected Cultivators had managed to run away.
“Blood Divine Art!”
“Heart Devouring Art!”
“Hundred Poison Soul Thorns!”
“Thousand Ghost Devouring Art...”
The seven Fiend Lords used their most powerful arts at the same time. Seven types of energy and Fiend Qi blocked Chen Fan in all directions.
Every one of them was as powerful as Zhao Juexian. The most powerful ones were even stronger than Ancestral Patriarch Takong. So, the seven of them working together would definitely be earth-shattering. Even the top elites on the Longevity Roll would be frightened.
In fact, many onlookers were worrying about Chen Fan.
But Chen Fan didn’t mind at all. He slashed with the broken sword.
At that moment, a beam of light shone. It was like a ray of sunlight at the break of dawn. Then, it suddenly became brighter, shining over a hundred mile range like the sun.
The Fiend Qi and True Energy were pushed away by the Sword Qi. When all the Fiend Qi dissipated, the shocked looks of the seven Fiend Lords were exposed.
Everything in a hundred mile radius froze.
Like a painting.
