Chapter 932 Heavenly Treasure
“Who is that?”
The girls were floored.
By then, the entire Beihuang Region had succumbed to Chen Fan’s power. Even Luo Changshen had to put on a respectful face before him. Who would have the audacity to attack him?
What frightened them even more was the serious wounds Chen Fan’s body had sustained. After nine transmutations, Chen Fan’s Divine Body was infinitely close to perfection. Even a Quasi-Heavenly Treasure would have only been able to leave a dent on his skin.
“Was it a Heavenly Lord?” Lin Wuhua murmured in a shaky voice.
Everyone’s hearts sank to the bottom. There was only one Heavenly Lord in the Beihuang Region, and he was the Heavenly Lord Astral Sea of the Wang Family. If it really was him, then the attack was the mighty Wang Family’s proclamation of war against Chen Fan.
“Impossible. I have heard that Heavenly Lord Astral Sea left the Beihuang Region long ago. We should have heard news of his return if he were back,” Zhao Juexian replied firmly.
Longevity Heavenly Lords were powerful beings that could live more than ten thousand years. They spent most of their time traveling in the universe and rarely did they remain in one place for a long time. Wang Xinhe, the Heavenly Lord Astral Sea was famous for his Astral Art and was very likely visiting stars in outer space.
“So, he is not Wang Xinhe.”
The girls were dumbfounded.
“This energy doesn’t feel like a Heavenly Lord’s. It’s similar to the energy of a Quasi-Heavenly Treasure... No... It has to be something more powerful... Could it be a Heavenly Treasure?” Zhao Juexian suddenly opened his eyes as wide as they would go.
Meanwhile, amidst the Thunder Tribulation in the sky...
Chen Fan had been dealt a devastating blow that nearly cut him in half. But his body was already healing. Countless droplets of blood flew back into Chen Fan’s body, swiftly restoring his vitality.
He was able to recover in less than a second.
Chen Fan looked up at the weapon that attacked him. It was curved like a scythe and its dark glinting body was equally as irresistible for human’s souls, just as a black hole would draw passing objects unto itself.
“Boom!”
A wailing gale straight from the underworld surrounded the dark long blade. Immense pressure ripple out from its glistening body and filled the air with fear. For a moment, Chen Fan thought he was facing a Heavenly Lord Essence Neonate.
“Marvelous blade!” Chen Fan exclaimed.
That was a Dharma Treasure of unthinkable power. Its energy surpassed that of any Dharma Treasure Chen Fan had seen before. There was more Qi tightly packed in the blade than the entire Yuntian Palace. It was a Heavenly Treasure true to its title, the magnum opus of a Heavenly Lord.
This Heavenly Blade was in the hands of a man in a black outfit. He was around forty, with pale face and two eyes which were even paler. There was not a hint of emotion on his face. Chen Fan noticed that this man’s energy was similar to that of Feng Qianjue and Feng Chengzi, albeit being much greater in magnitude.
“Such insolence! How dare you sneak up on me? Who are you?”
Chen Fan stood proudly among flashes of lightning. Tendrils of electric currents licked his skin, opening it up. However, Chen Fan didn’t mind as he focused his attention on the man in black.
“Feng Ziqiu,” the man said quietly.
Zhao Juexian’s heart was seized by fear as soon as he heard the name.
Zhao Juexian said incredulously, “It’s him.
“He was a legendary genius from the Feng Family. He should be five thousand years old now. He used to be considered both friend and enemy of another powerful cultivator who was of his similar age: Heavenly Lord Astral Sea. Their competition ended with Heavenly Lord Astral Sea taking the lead, disappearing from the public eye. How could he still be alive after so many centuries?”
Lin Wuhua and Mu Hongti felt suffocated by the tension.
If he really was the Heavenly Lord Astral Sea’s equal, he had to be extremely powerful.
Even though he had failed in his competition against Heavenly Lord Astral Sea, the girls were still stunned by his might and talent.
Wang Xuanfeng and Feng Chengzi would pale under comparison with Feng Ziqiu.
“Be careful master! Feng Ziqiu was close to becoming a Heavenly Lord thousands of years ago. I don’t know how he had survived throughout the years, but he must be very powerful by now. The blade in his hand is a Heavenly Treasure called ‘Heavenly Blade of Obliteration’ It was made out of Underworld Black Iron that was quenched under the frozen gales from the ninth level of the frozen hell. It’s so powerful that it can cut open space itself,” Zhao Juexian shouted.
“You can’t even defeat Wang Xinhe, much less me.”
Chen Fan sneered despite the immense power coming from his enemy.
Compared to Wang Xuanlong and Feng Chengzi, Feng Ziqiu was much closer to the Heavenly Lord realm; he had also grasped the fundamental laws of a Heavenly Lord Essence Neonate. With the aid of a Heavenly Treasure, he could even injure Chen Fan, something that the thirteen elders had failed to do.
“You’re courting death!”
Feng Ziqiu’s eyes grew cold.
He swung the blade around as his body disappeared behind the weapon’s moving shadow.
A split second later, he reappeared behind Chen Fan. The dark blade sliced open the nearby space and hewed at Chen Fan, carrying the wailing gale with it. This dark gale blew directly out from the underworld and could corrupt any Golden Core Cultivator’s soul upon contact. Even a Heavenly Lord would have to keep some distance from this baleful attack.
“Whoosh.”
The attack came from an unthinkable angle.
Chen Fan stepped to the side and raised an arm to block the attack. The blade went straight through his arm and severed it off his body. The terrifying Blade Qi didn’t stop there as it rammed into a mountain, leveling it in an instant.
“Bam!”
Chen Fan formed a fist and punched.
However, Feng Ziqiu was already out of sight, reappearing in a far corner like a phantom.
“Crack, crack.”
In a blink...
Chen Fan had been dealt many blows.
Despite the indestructibility of the Azure Thearch Longevity Body, Chen Fan’s arms had been severed off from his body. Although they quickly grew back, it was the first time for Chen Fan to have sustained such heavy injuries.
“I had once heard that Heavenly Lord Feng used to be one of the deadliest assassins in Tianhuang. He had even killed a Heavenly Lord. He always acted in secrecy, never revealing his true face to anyone,” Zhao Juexian mumbled.
Without powerful benefactors, the Feng Family of the Zilan State wouldn’t have remained a dominant power for ten thousand years.
“Be careful.”
Lin Wuhua and Mu Hongti shouted to warn Chen Fan.
“Clang!”
Chen Fan blocked another attack with his left shoulder, letting the force shatter his bones. However, it gave him enough time to pull out the Demon Blade of Heaven Slay with the other hand.
“Buzz.”
A crisp metal clanking sound came up as the Demon Blade revealed itself.
The blade transformed Chen Fan into an unmatched swordsman. He swung the blade and blocked a few attacks from the Heavenly Blade of Obliteration. It had avoided a lot of damage to Chen Fan’s body. One main factor for Feng Ziqiu’s upper hand in this battle was the sharpness of the blade.
He was mired in the Thunder Tribulation and had to reserve more than half of his energy to defend against the lightning attacks. However, Feng Ziqiu didn’t have such concern. He could attack Chen Fan with abandon. However, Chen Fan’s weapon leveled the field slightly.
“Clang!”
Another clash.
Feng Ziqiu was winded; he eventually stumbled back, while Chen Fan stood firmly.
“You’re wasting your time. You’re not a Heavenly Lord while I have already gained the body of a Heavenly Lord. Not even Wang Xinhe could defeat me with raw strength, much less you,” Chen Fan said calmly.
Black dragons flew out from the body of the Demon Blade of Heaven Slay and covered half of the sky, filling the air with deadly demonic energy. Chen Fan stood in the cold wind, and looked more like a Demon Lord than a cultivator.
“Really?”
Feng Ziqiu’s eyes dimmed a little, but his face remained impassive.
“Whoosh!”
The pitch black Heavenly Blade roared in his hand as if a divine spirit had been awakened inside of it.
A petrifying energy rose from the Heavenly Blade of Obliteration. A formidable Heavenly Lord presence appeared above the mountain range, crushing many mountains in an instant. A hole was created in space, unleashing a gust of dark gale. Behind the tail of the gale, fey beasts bowed down with fear.
The presence was noticed by cultivators three thousand kilometers away. They looked into the distance with open confusion.
“What’s going on? Is that a Heavenly Treasure? Did someone use a Heavenly Treasure in the State of Ancient Medicine?”
Elixir Lord suddenly opened his eyes in disbelief.
The full power of a Heavenly Treasure was as great as that of a Heavenly Lord and it could be felt tens of thousands of miles away.
His shock and disbelief was shared by many Ancestral Patriarchs and Family Lords. Some of them hurried to their family vaults to make sure their Heavenly Treasures were still there.
“The Feng Family is taking action,” Hu Yuanshuo said.
“This is our last hope. If Chen Fan defeats him, we can only wait for the Wang Family’s involvement, which would be gladly undertaken by them. They could easily squeeze us out of the Beihuang Region’s seat of power. In the worst case, we might have to become their subjects,” the Nin Family Lord said.
“Uncle Feng should be as powerful as a Heavenly Lord with the Heavenly Blade of Obliteration. He won’t let us down,” the Feng Family Lord said.
The Feng Family had gone all in for this assasination mission. They had awakened Feng Ziqiu from his slumber and given him the most powerful Treasure of the family.
At this moment.
Countless eyes looked to the State of Ancient Medicine from all over the Beihuang Region.
Deep in the forest of the Beihuang Region, a momentous battle took place. If Chen Fan emerged victorious again, he would finally pin the entire Beihuang Region under his boot forever.
“Bam!”
Dark energy of the Heavenly Blade poured down from the sky like a waterfall.
An earth-shattering battle was about to begin.
