Chapter 1348 - Slaying an Immortal

Chapter 1348 - Slaying an Immortal

Sensing the terror of this slash and the aura of death coming at him, Gu Xing exclaimed, “A king artifact! You truly possess a king artifact!”

Gu Xun’s message had only suspected Chen Fan’s possession of such a weapon; now, Gu Xing was certain. The vicious saber in Chen Fan’s hand was no imitation: it was a genuine king-grade immortal artifact, a weapon fit for an Immortal King.

In the long history of the Gu Clan, they only had one king-grade immortal artifact.

If they seized this saber, their patriarch—already at the peak of the Immortal Platform realm—could even battle an Immortal King lacking such a weapon.

“Good, good, good. The Nine Immortals Bell, and now a king-grade vicious saber. Excellent! This time, our Gu Clan has struck it rich!”

Excitement surged in Gu Xing’s eyes. Either treasure alone could fortify the clan’s foundation; together, they would raise its strength beyond measure.

“But did you think an artifact alone can save you?” Gu Xing said arrogantly, stepping toward Chen Fan. With every step, crushing force pressed down, shaking the halos around Chen Fan as if they would shatter at any moment.

If Chen Fan hadn’t been borrowing the power of the Nine Immortals Bell, Gu Xing could have slain him with a single step from afar.

The gap between immortals and mortals was indeed insurmountable, especially since Chen Fan was still so weak. How could he fight an Immortal, let alone slay one?

Gu Xing grew serious. Several Hands of Blazing Sky tore out from the void at once, blotting the heavens, as though he had sprouted three heads and six arms. The sky, earth, and void shook on the verge of collapse.

Chen Fan, calm and unshaken, raised the Vicious Suppressor Saber. Vicious light burst forth, bloodthirsty intent surging as if to slaughter all beings under heaven.

“Power that reaches immortals, killing one in a single slash!”

Terrifying light blossomed in Chen Fan’s eyes as he slashed out furiously with the Vicious Suppressor saber, sweeping across the sky.

This slash was like a lethal blow unleashed by an ancient, ferocious figure. A formless immortal light blossomed, sweeping out at the sky in layers.

The several Hands of Blazing Sky shuddered, then shattered. The space itself roared with violent detonations, heaven and earth trembling under the clash.

Before the shockwave dissipated, Chen Fan saw a proud figure in the sky. His figure loomed larger than life, haloed in immortal light, gaze piercing as though it could strip Chen Fan’s soul bare. He looked at Chen Fan as if at an ant, despite Chen Fan’s rise to immortal rank with the Nine Immortals Bell and his success in withstanding multiple strikes.

Even so, this did not change anything. In Gu Xing’s eyes, he was already a dead man, and all his fortune would become his trophy.

“I didn’t expect you to be able to fight me to this extent. You should be proud. However, this still doesn’t change your fate. You’re not worthy of having such divine weapons. What use does a dead person have for divine weapons?” Gu Xing said indifferently.

The immortal light emanating from him grew stronger, becoming towering. Immortal might filled heaven and earth. Even people millions of kilometers away could sense it.

“Let’s end this!” Gu Xing said indifferently. He shook, immortal light bursting forth. Countless Hands of Blazing Sky surged into being, blotting out the sky, ready to shatter heaven and earth.

The Nine Immortals Bell rang furiously, echoing through space.

Dong, dong, dong...

“You’re right. It is indeed time to end this!”

Chen Fan grasped the Vicious Suppressor saber tightly, with the Nine Immortals Bell above his head. Large amounts of immortal stones burned furiously, enveloping him in immortal qi. A soul-shaking aura erupted from the saber, its presence vast and suffocating.

“Borrowing the power of nine immortals, a saber that destroys the world!”

His voice rang with solemn majesty, unshakable and divine.

He seemed to grow to an unimaginable height as if he had turned into a colossal giant. He slashed down, and the endless Hands of Blazing Sky shattered, bursting into flaming meteors that scattered through the void.

Wherever the saber light passed, everything was annihilated, turned into nothingness. It was truly overpowering, devastating heaven and earth.

Chen Fan had truly drawn on the nine immortals’ strength, revealing a glimpse of the Vicious Suppressor’s terrifying might.

Gu Xing’s expression changed drastically in a flash. His immortal shone even brighter as he struck out furiously, but it was useless. This saber carried the force of nine immortals, enough to kill even a second or third-level Immortal Platform realm expert.

How could Gu Xing resist?

He was only at the peak of the first-level Immortal Platform realm.

Rumble!

This slash seemed to possess the power to annihilate everything, splitting heaven and earth apart.

Seeing his attacks were destroyed, horror filled Gu Xing’s face. He shot through the sky, turning into a stream of light and fleeing.

He truly felt the aura of death approaching him.

It was as if the Grim Reaper had unleashed this slash to harvest his life.

No matter how fast Gu Xing fled, he couldn’t outpace the slash.

Poof!

A sound echoed. The saber light swept past Gu Xing, accompanied by a streak of blood. Gu Xing stopped fleeing, stiffening in mid-air.

“So what if you’re immortal? You still have to die!”

Chen Fan’s face was ghastly white. Fresh blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth.

The immortal light on the Nine Immortals Bell had already dimmed, and Chen Fan had put away the Vicious Suppressor saber. He looked at Gu Xing, frozen in midair, with no emotion.

A heartbeat later, Gu Xing split apart—immortal platform and all. With a deafening rumble, he burst into dust, scattered, and gone forever.

Even an immortal had to die!

This slash had slain an immortal!

“I’d better leave this place soon. The shockwaves must have spread for hundreds of thousands of kilometers. More experts may already be on their way.

Chen Fan fished out several recovery elixirs and swallowed them. He swept away Gu Xing’s storage ring and flickered, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the horizon.

Moments later, several figures descended.

“What intense fluctuations!”

“The White Bone Mountain Ridge is destroyed, and White Bone Demonic Being’s aura has also disappeared. Did he battle those who came to kill him?”

“What terrifying law fluctuations. These law fluctuations alone shake me with dread.”

“White Bone Demonic Being is truly terrifying. No wonder no one could rein him in all these years. White Bone Demonic Being is monstrous... he must be only a step from becoming an Immortal.”

There were many Void Immortals and Legendary realm experts among these people. They were all shocked, sensing the traces left behind from this battle.

A majestic voice cut through the air. Moments later, crushing immortal might swept over the crowd. An Immortal Platform realm expert had come.

“Fools! Two Immortal Platform realm experts fought here!”

At his appearance, faces paled in shock.

“It’s Reverend Xuanyue.”

Someone asked carefully, “Reverend Xuanyue, you said that two Immortal Platform realm experts caused this. Could it be that White Bone Demonic Being is already...”

A bright moon hovered behind Reverend Xuanyue, lending him a sagely and transcendent appearance. He nodded and said, “That’s right. It was indeed a huge battle between two Immortal Platform realm experts, but there are no traces of White Bone Demonic Being’s aura. I’m afraid he was also caught up in this and died tragically from the aftermath.”
