Unrivaled Martial Emperor

News of Duan Jingtian and Zhong Ya engaging in a showdown at Tianmen Mountain in two weeks created a commotion throughout the entire Great Chu Empire.

Jingtian and Zhong Ya, respectively, were the top disciples of the Spring Autumn Sect and the Divine Light Sect. They held the tenth and eleventh positions on the Geniuses of Heaven Leaderboard.

What kind of sparks would be produced in their fight?

Suddenly, the entire Great Chu Empire was in an uproar.

Many people rushed to Tianmen Mountain, eager to witness the spectacle.

Let alone the outside world, the news generated a continuous wave of heated discussion in the Spring Autumn Sect alone.

As for the conflict between Chen Fan and Tianxia Society in the Life and Death Hall, no one cared about it still.

“Why did Zhong Ya suddenly challenge Senior Brother Duan Jingtian? Could it be that he has the confidence to defeat Senior Brother Duan Jingtian?”

“I heard Zhong Ya obtained a treasure in the Tianfeng Empire half a year ago. It’s very likely the source of his newfound strength and confidence. That’s why he is now thinking of replacing Senior Brother Duan Jingtian’s position on the list.”

“This battle would definitely be a battle of the ages.”

“......”

The battle at Tianmen Mountain was bound to be sensational.

As soon as news of the impending battle spread, the entire Great Chu Empire plunged into chaos, with all discussions centering around this forthcoming clash.

......

Compared to the liveliness outside, the atmosphere within Chen Fan's residence was starkly different—quiet and cold.

Seated cross-legged on his bed, Chen Fan systematically absorbed pure primeval energy from the primeval stones, turning them into dust. His rippled continuously.

Chen Fan had obtained an enormous amount of treasures in the northwestern lands, including a mountain of primeval stones. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel

He had initially planned to return to Xuanyang City and give these resources and treasures to the clan.

However, due to Duan Jingtian and Zhong Ya's declaration, Chen Fan had decided to return after watching the fight.

Chen Fan's determination to witness the clash stemmed from his desire to gauge Duan Jingtian's strength.

The three-year promise seemed far away, but Chen Fan felt it was just around the corner. The gap between their strength was still like an unbridgeable chasm.

Within his dantian, the Heaven Seizing Furnace revolved fiercely. It was refining a blood demon core, producing a buzzing noise.

They were so deadly to everyone, even Core Formation realm experts, that even trying to refine a blood demon core would transform the user into a blood demon-like entity due to the contained blood poison,

However, the Heaven Seizing Furnace could plunder the luck of heaven and earth and refine the most profound mysteries of the cosmos.

There seemed to be no limit to what the furnace could refine. So, while the blood poison was tricky to deal with, it was nothing to Chen Fan.

Under the refining process of the furnace, the blood poison vaporized, leaving behind only the purest vitality essence.

Boom, boom!

Chen Fan's cultivation and aura rose, a reaction to the pressure from both the Tianxia Society and Duan Jingtian.

To others, he was powerful.

However, in the eyes of people like Duan Jingtian and Feng Tianxia, he was like an ant. novelbuddy.c(o)m

If it weren’t for Wei Buyu, Wang Hui, and others rescuing him from various crises, Chen Fan would have likely died long ago.

Strength.

Chen Fan thirsted for great strength!

Only with strength would he have dignity and the ability to protect himself and his family.

Rumble!

Chen Fan trembled. Then, his aura surged like the tide.

A powerful surge of energy emanated from him, creating a fierce wind that obliterated the furniture in his room.

As he opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashed in them.

Over ten days had passed, and Chen Fan was now at the fourth level.

The blood demon core of a peak-stage, fourth-level Yuanfu realm expert only raised my cultivation by one small realm. How unexpected. Chen Fan sighed in his heart.

The higher his cultivation level rose, the more vitality essence he needed to reach the next level.

Refining one peak-stage, fourth-level blood demon core, along with around ten cores at the second and third levels, only helped Chen Fan advance to the fourth level.

Although he still had many demon beasts' demon cores, they were all at the first- and second-level. They were no longer very useful to him.

He planned on using these demon cores to perform martial infusion on his fellow clansmen.

“If I want to raise my cultivation level further quickly, I need to go kill powerful demon beasts or obtain treasures that contain vast amounts of vitality essence.”

Chen Fan’s eyes flickered.

However, such a matter couldn’t be rushed. He stood up, patted his clothing, and went to open the door. The sunlight shone inside. Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and said, “Duan Jingtian and Zhong Ya’s battle will occur three days later...”

......

Tianmen Mountain, initially not widely known in the Great Chu Empire, gained instant fame due to Duan Jingtian and Zhong Ya’s decision to stage their fight there.

No matter the height of a mountain, it became renowned with the presence of an immortal. No matter the depth of the water, it becomes spiritual with the presence of a dragon. This saying likely refers to events such as this.

Located in the southern region of the Great Chu Empire, Tianmen Mountain stood over ten thousand feet high, becoming a gathering place for hundreds of thousands of people.

The crowd extended from the mountain peak to the foot, with a sea of heads moving in unison. Only a swathe of darkness could be seen from above, the clamoring shaking the heavens.

The clamor echoed, and additional groups of spectators continuously streamed in, all converging on Tianmen Mountain to witness the impending fight.

“So many people came.”

Chen Fan had spent two days making his way to Tianmen Mountain. The sheer number of people gathered there astonished Chen Fan. The crowd looked like countless fruits hanging from a massive tree.

The people had crowded the mountain top, the mountain foot, and even the surrounding plains.

Chen Fan gazed at the surroundings and landed on the mountain foot.

He sensed that most attendees were in the Yuanfu realm, with a smaller portion being Qi Grandmasters.

As for whether there were any Core Formation realm experts around, Chen Fan had no way of knowing that if they didn’t expose their cultivation aura.

Chen Fan occupied a vantage point with a wide view, allowing him to clearly observe the battle even if it unfolded fifty kilometers away.

Finding an open space, he sat down with crossed legs, determined not to waste the day leading up to the Tianmen Mountain battle. He planned to cultivate his third illusory primeval vessel.

Chen Fan shut his eyes and focused his attention, secretly activating his cultivation technique to absorb the primeval qi of heaven and earth and activating Myriad Elephants Divine Art to strengthen his physique.

After the night passed, Chen Fan finally succeeded in cultivating the third illusory primeval vessel in his dantian.

Chen Fan opened his eyes, shining with a brilliant light.

As the day progressed, the influx of people to Tianmen Mountain continued.

At noon, a million people gathered on Tianmen Mountain. The crowd was densely packed like locusts, filling the space and making loud noises.

Various auras surged and intertwined, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a martial arts convention.

“Look, a Core Formation realm expert is here!”

Amidst the bustling crowd, a sudden exclamation reached Chen Fan's ears.
