Chapter 1361 - Opportunity for the Strong

“You’re right. Although Chen Fan has been in the sect for less than five years, I have to admit that he is indeed a pride of heaven. He could kill Void Immortals while being an Invincible Legend. Now that a year and a half has passed, he must have grown even stronger.”

“But it’s unfortunate. I heard that he offended the Hua Alliance. He’ll definitely not have an easy time in the future.”

“Oh? What happened? How did he offend the Hua Alliance?”

“I heard that Shen Jianqiu and Chen Wang invited him to join the Hua Alliance, but he refused. This had never happened before. Since when has the Hua Alliance ever suffered such humiliation? Given their domineering ways, they definitely won’t let it slide.”

“Then it’s really unfortunate for Chen Fan. But honestly, he doesn’t know what’s good for him if he rejected the Hua Alliance’s invitation. Who does that?”

“I know, right? People like us could never join the Hua Alliance, no matter what, but he outright refused them. Such pride, such aloofness.”

“Hehe, there are also quite a few Hua Alliance members among the low-class disciples, like Ye Kuang, Xing Qian, and the others. They are all peak Void Immortals, and ordinary peak Void Immortal experts can’t even withstand a single blow from them. Although Chen Fan is a genius and must have grown significantly stronger, he’s still far from comparable to Ye Kuang and Xing Qian. If he encounters either of them, I doubt he’ll come out well.”

While many discussed their favorites for the top three, a loud bell suddenly rang through the sky, echoing in all directions.

All the low-class disciples knew that the competition was about to begin.

For an immortal holy land like the Featherlight Sect to hold a competition of such grand scale, it was naturally impossible to arrange single matches on a mere stage. With so many disciples participating, how many arenas would they need to build?

So, some mighty figure directly opened up a small plane in the void.

The fact that the sect could casually open a separate plane just for the competition spoke volumes about the depth of its foundation.

Yet this was not only for spectacle, but also for safety. After all, even low-class disciples were Legendary Realm experts who had already grasped the laws. The destructive force from their fight was very terrifying.

If the competition were held inside the sect's grounds, countless mountains of the Featherlight Sect might be reduced to rubble.

Swish!

Chen Fan, Huang Wuji, and the others followed the great tide of disciples as they swept toward the venue. Such grandeur was beyond anything they had ever seen in their lives.

On the Tianwu Continent, Legendary realm experts already stood at the peak. As for Void Immortals, they were like untouchable giants.

In the whole of the True Martial Academy, there were only two Void Immortals and about a dozen Legends. Yet here, hundreds of thousands of Legendary Realm disciples gathered in one place; the difference was staggering.

If such an army marched into the lower realms, it would sweep across them like an unstoppable tide.

After registering, Chen Fan and the others entered the small plane and found it already filled with countless experts, their auras colliding and stirring the air itself.

Young experts filled the plane, their auras colliding and resisting one another, sweeping across heaven and earth. Even from afar, the scene was shocking to behold.

Boom!

An enormous aura instantly swept down.

Endless primeval qi condensed under an unknown will, transforming into dazzling swords of law that hovered in the void, captivating every gaze. This was no illusion. It was the manifestation of primeval qi into tangible form. The crystallization of laws themselves.

Normally, cultivators at this level could only comprehend the laws and channel fragments of their power to strengthen their attacks.

In the Immortal Realm, one began to incorporate laws into themselves. In the Immortal King Realm, every drop of blood and every cell brimmed with law, so much so that even the smallest gesture carried heavenly might. Yet even then, shaping the laws into tangible objects at will was far from simple.

Only in the Immortal Emperor realm, when one was as brilliant as the sun or the moon, could they manifest a law thread in their hands at will. It might be a cauldron, a saber, or even a world.

So, the moment these swords of law appeared, everyone knew that this was the work of an Immortal Emperor. Only such figures could create such a scene.

The dignified silhouette that followed was hazy, his features hidden in nothingness. No one dared to stare directly. Unless he chose to reveal himself, or unless one stood at a similar height of power, his true face was beyond reach.

Whoever this behemoth was within the Featherlight Sect, one thing was clear: he was not someone they could fathom. They needed to maintain the appropriate reverence, a show of respect for the powerful.

“How truly unexpected. This martial meet is actually being presided over by an Immortal Emperor realm behemoth. It goes to show how much importance the sect has attached to this martial meet.”

“That’s right. In the past, such competitions were usually presided over by an Immortal King, and sometimes even by Immortal Platform realm elders. Compared to that, this is on a completely different level.”

“Then we must perform well. If we catch the eye of the behemoth, wouldn’t we soar to the heavens in a single step?”

“Soar to the heavens? Don’t fool yourself. Even if you perform well, could you break into the top ten, or even the top thirty? If the sect wants to take in disciples, they’ll pick prides of heaven like Si Kong or Ye Kuang.”

“One day, I too can reach such a realm!”

“That’s what a real man should be like!”

The appearance of the Immortal Emperor left many disciples shaken, yet it also ignited wild ambition.

Of course, these people were the most outstanding among the low-class disciples. They were geniuses with high aspirations and wild ambitions, as well as the potential to become Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors. Who wouldn’t want to reach the pinnacle?

Chen Fan also stared fixedly at the blurry figure in the sky, shaken inside.

Such a figure was an existence at the very top, even across the entire Heavenly Realm. A stomp of their feet would shake the world.

The overwhelming fluctuations rolling off him made Chen Fan instinctively fearful, as if a single thought from that figure could kill him hundreds of times over.

Although he had seen the Blood Emperor, who was also an Immortal Emperor behemoth, the Blood Emperor had his corpse split up and even suppressed with Dawn Suppression Divine Iron. His aura was not even comparable to one ten-thousandth of this blurry figure.

So, this is an Immortal Emperor behemoth, huh? How truly terrifying. Just a glance and I feel like I should kneel and worship him!

Chen Fan thought.

He even felt a little relieved.

Back then, he had been ignorant enough to barge into the Blood Emperor’s sealed land. Had the Blood Emperor not been restrained, even ten lives would not have been sufficient to save him.
