Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 344 – Unstoppable

A faint laughter rang out. “Kid, we meet again.”

Chen Fan looked over and realized that the guardian of this stage was also the elder from the seventh stage. However, now there were two of them, and their cultivation seemed slightly higher.

“Senior,” Chen Fan greeted, then looked behind the white-light elders.

Behind them was a jade lotus altar. [1]

On the lotus altar was the Nine Sun Divine Lingzhi. Its translucent stem and leaves were swaying gently. The leaves were like nine balls of scorching hot fire, slowly swaying and emitting extremely shocking energy fluctuations.

“Is that the Nine Sun Divine Lingzhi?” Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.

The elder had told him that the Nine Sun Divine Lingzhi was incredibly effective in body tempering. It could push his Myriad Elephants Divine Art to the tenth layer—the Divine Strength realm.

Seeing it firsthand, Chen Fan felt an immediate desire for it stirring within his flesh and blood.

“Kid, you need to defeat me first to obtain the Nine Sun Divine Lingzhi,” said the two elders with a smile.

Chen Fan’s gaze became stern. His aura turned intense as he aimed his spear at the elder and said domineeringly, “Since that is the case... let’s fight!”

He was determined to obtain the Nine Sun Divine Lingzhi. It could help his Myriad Elephants Divine Art reach a whole new level; he would undergo metamorphosis.

It would allow him to fight Core Formation realm experts with his physical strength alone, without any need for his cultivation.

Swish, swish!

The elders did not waste any time talking and made their moves.

The two silhouettes struck almost simultaneously, attacking him from the sides. When they were about a hundred steps away from Chen Fan, they thrust their palms simultaneously, generating incredibly fierce winds.

Woo, woo. Woo, woo, woo...

Two terrifying palm seals loomed overhead, seemingly encompassing the sky, threatening to shatter heaven and earth. A whistling sound reminiscent of mournful cries reverberated. The space within the entire white light dome started trembling violently.

“Break!”

A determined glint flashed in Chen Fan's eyes. He stomped his foot and jumped into the air. His arm bulged fiercely, seemingly made of steel tendons and iron bones, as tremendous strength surged like a volcano erupting.

Pop, pop. Pop, pop, pop...

Chen Fan thrust his spear forward, shaking the space. The iron spear emanated terrifying strength, capable of rending apart the sun, moon, and stars. It had only one goal—to shatter the two colossal hands that dominated the sky.

“Heaven Piercing Spear, Heaven Breaking Stab!” Chen Fan roared, his voice echoing with intensity as his power surged, unveiling a majestic sight.

The illusory silhouette of a heavenly god appeared at his back, wielding a spear. It looked up at the sky and raised its hand, stabbing at the heavens fiercely. With a loud rumble, an enormous hole appeared in the sky.

Boom, boom, boom!

Chen Fan was like the heavenly god that pierced through the heavens. With his attack, the heavens seemed to weep blood, and the spirits wailed as destruction ensued.

Boom ka!

The two large hands came down like two heavenly curtains. Chen Fan’s spear broke through the heavens, and following two loud booms, the two heavenly curtains shattered, revealing the clear blue sky.

Woo, woo. Woo, woo, woo...

The clash generated a terrifying wind that churned like the tide, slamming into the white light dome and making it tremble violently. Its lights flickered.

“Oh boy, truly impressive!”

The terrifying ripples pushed the two elders back, their glowing forms flickering.

“Again!” Chen Fan shouted, launching himself off the ground like an eagle taking flight. With a swish, he suddenly swooped down as if hunting prey, thrusting his spear forward.

Executing a series of swift movements with his spear, Chen Fan sealed off heaven and earth, creating a force that momentarily restrained the elders' movements as if they were bound.

The two white light elders struck out simultaneously, executing their strongest move.

“Great Brahma Sacred Palm!”

Two terrifying palm seals flew toward Chen Fan; surprisingly, they were upside-down. Still, they were strong enough to destroy everything.

“Break, break, break!”

Chen Fan thrust his spear repeatedly. His iron spear rubbed against the air violently, producing blazing flames. The atmosphere reverberated with crackling noises akin to fireworks.

Rumble!

The two Great Brahma Sacred Palms failed to stop Chen Fan.

Except for his final ace in the hole—Northern Star Reaper Hand—Chen Fan had pushed all his martial arts to the limit.

Countless spear silhouettes materialized from the void, each carrying the force of a hundred ancient wild elephants and capable of toppling mountains.

“Tempest Storm!”

His stabbing technique was truly like a storm, embodying the wrath of the lord of heaven.

With a surge of tremendous strength, Chen Fan felt increasingly exhilarated and at ease with each strike. His mastery over his power felt instinctual now.

“Oh! Kid, you didn’t go all out in the seventh stage.” The surprise didn’t slow down the elder’s hands in the slightest.

Being an entity of pure energy, he had no restriction regarding the consumption of primeval force. His palms blurred, and numerous Great Brahma palm seals flew out like butterflies, shrouding the heaven and shaking the void.

Boom, boom, boom!

The air exploded from the force, causing the currents to surge and churn like a monstrous wave crashing toward Chen Fan.

Chen Fan felt like he was fighting monstrous waves on the sea. If he got careless, the waves would swallow him.

“Break, break, break...”

Unfazed, he attacked to his heart’s content, each strike containing the peak of his strength, breaking mountains and overturning seas. Nothing could stop him.

With ease, Chen Fan destroyed the towering gale rushing toward him. The spear reduced the Great Brahma palm seals to nothing.

The two white light elders retreated continuously. With a swish, they flew far away, taking a temporary respite.

“You’re not going anywhere!” Chen Fan roared. The instant the two white light elders withdrew, he vanished and reappeared right next to one of the elders.

“Well done, kid. You won again. This Nine Sun Divine Lingzhi is yours," said the elder with a chuckle as Chen Fan launched his attack. In a puff of smoke, their figures dissipated.

Poof, poof.

Chen Fan's strike met empty air, his expression tinged with helplessness.

The white light elder knew he could defend himself against Chen Fan’s attack, so instead of letting Chen Fan kill him again, he chose self-destruction to make himself feel better.

Although it was only a wisp of his will, he was once a great figure of the divine palace. He would be too embarrassed if a brat at the ninth level killed him twice.

“What a cute senior,” Chen Fan muttered, shaking his head. Then, he looked at the Nine Sun Divine Lingzhi ahead.

“It’s mine now.”

A fiery light flashed in Chen Fan’s eyes. He could see himself advancing to the Divine Strength realm.

Moments later, the spatial surroundings shifted, and Chen Fan found himself at the ninth stage.
