Chapter 1233 - Slashing at Ye Yuanming Like Mad

The crowd hadn’t yet reacted to Ye Yuanming’s sudden attack.

He had moved too fast.

But when Chen Fan slashed him away, sending blood spraying and Ye Yuanming screaming in pain, the stunned onlookers finally snapped out of it.

“Damn it! Ye Yuanming got ahead!”

“Holy hell, that ax strike actually sent him flying!”

The crowd cursed and tried to join the fight.

However, when they saw Ye Yuanming being sent flying, they felt as if someone had doused them with cold water. A chill ran through their hearts, and they stopped dead in their tracks.

The crowd’s gazes shifted downwards in unison.

A figure slowly rose into the air, wielding a bloody ax. His aura shook heaven and earth, sweeping out in all directions. All those who sensed it felt their hearts tremble and expressions shift.

But more than that, everyone stared at the weapon he held. The Blood Ax. Their eyes burned.

“Blood Ax...”

“Immortal artifact!”

They had all heard that Chen Fan had obtained an immortal artifact. That ax had to be it.

Even though the crowd wanted to snatch the bloody ax from Chen Fan, his overwhelmingly ferocious aura kept them from acting on their desires. They couldn’t act recklessly.

They had all seen him undergo the tribulation, exhausting himself in the process, and getting ambushed by Ye Yuanming, which resulted in heavy injuries. Yet, the powerful aura he was radiating was enough to deter them. None of them were confident that they could withstand an ax slash from Chen Fan.

After all, most of them weren’t even Legends.

Suddenly, a burly middle-stage Lesser Legendary realm expert stepped forward.

“Chen Fan, hand over the immortal artifact!”

He wielded meteor hammers that radiated a formidable aura. He had a low, muffled voice and didn’t conceal his Legendary realm pressure.

The immortal artifact was right before his eyes. How could he not give in to such intense temptation?

Another Lesser Legendary realm walked out, his voice cold as he said, “Chen Fan, give me the immortal artifact. I’ll ensure your safety.”

“Giving it to me is the wisest choice!”

Before long, several Legendary realm experts were looking at Chen Fan with gazes sharp as a blade and burning with greed, emitting their pressures.

Facing these people, Chen Fan didn’t show the slightest change in expression.

They were far from comparable to Ye Yuanming.

The strongest of them was only a middle-stage Lesser Legendary realm expert. He wouldn’t have feared them even before he became a Legend, let alone now.

While it looked like he was in bad shape with injuries so heavy that he seemed to be on his last leg, Chen Fan was only just putting up appearances.

His injuries weren’t as severe as they looked.

The Hegemonic Golden Body’s defense was incomparably tough, especially after reaching level 40. Not even a Grade-9 treasure could hurt him now.

Though blood-drenched and clearly injured, Chen Fan still retained over half his strength.

Chla!

Chen Fan didn’t waste his breath on them. Since they wanted to snatch his Blood Ax, they’d better be ready to die for it.

With a swing of his arm, blinding crimson light burst from the ax. A terrifying aura exploded outward as he slashed at the man wielding meteor hammers.

“Damn it!”

The man’s face changed drastically. Chen Fan had attacked without warning, without a word. That ax light felt like a beast lunging straight at him, jaws wide open.

“Break!” The meteor hammer man roared furiously. The light of laws erupted. As many as three hundred and eighty law threads danced and flashed wildly. His meteor hammers also came to life, radiating ferocious auras as they flew toward that oncoming ax light.

Boom, tch!

Sparks flew. But the force rebounded; his own hammers smashed back into his chest with crushing power. Bones cracked audibly. He coughed up blood and screamed in agony.

Puchi!

Chen Fan flashed past like a gust of wind. A head flew into the air. The meteor hammer-wielding man was dead.

He had killed a middle-stage Lesser Legendary realm expert in just two moves.

This scene scared the surrounding people out of their wits.

Even the Lesser Legendary realm experts eyeing Chen Fan’s Blood Ax turned pale.

“

Hmph

, you want my Blood Ax? Come and get it!”

After killing that meteor hammer-wielding man, he did not attack the other Lesser Legendary realm experts. He left some icy words behind and charged toward Ye Yuanming.

His true target was Ye Yuanming, not those weaklings.

Ye Yuanming was shocked silly after being sent flying with a slash and crashing heavily into a mountain. He barely managed to pull himself from the rubble, head spinning, only to see Chen Fan charging at him.

“You’re courting death!”

Ye Yuanming was enraged.

Though sent flying, his injuries weren’t serious. He’d only been caught off guard and momentarily dazed.

Releasing his aura, thirty-six black battle spears materialized around him, sweeping out with a terrifying aura. Stepping forward, his aura surged, and he also rushed at Chen Fan viciously.

So what if Chen Fan had just entered the Legendary realm? So what if he held an immortal artifact? He was about to drag Chen Fan back to reality with pain.

Rumble!

The two of them collided, and the space instantly exploded.

A terrifying energy storm swept out like the raging sea waves, destroying the mountains in its path and ravaging the earth.

Ugh!

Ye Yuanming’s battle spear formation was broken through. A massive force hit him squarely, sending him flying again, blood spraying midair.

Chen Fan didn’t have it easy, either. The recoil nearly tore his palm open, and the Blood Ax almost flew out of his grip.

Ye Yuanming, a peak Lesser Legendary, was indeed terrifyingly strong.

But things had changed. Chen Fan was no longer on the defensive. Having stepped into the Legendary realm, his power had surged. Now, he could unleash forty percent of the Blood Ax’s potential; his offensive strength had skyrocketed.

Now, he had the strength to fight back against Ye Yuanming.

“Go to hell, Ye Yuanming!”

Chen Fan steadied himself and pushed his cultivation to the limit. The Heaven and Earth Furnace moved violently, rumbling like a high-powered engine. All of a sudden, endless strength surged forth.

He was like a battle god who decimated heaven and earth. With the Blood Ax in hand, bloody light rushing into the sky, he shook the earth and mountains with his steps, charging toward Ye Yuanming with earth-shattering momentum.

One slash.

Two slashes.

Three slashes.

Five slashes.

Ten slashes.

In mere moments, Chen Fan had launched several slashes, losing count.

Slash after slash, they swept out like the endless sea waves. An overwhelming wave was set off in the air, slashing toward Ye Yuanming.

His expression changed drastically.

Facing the tens, if not over a hundred, slashes from Chen Fan, that mountain-destroying, sea-turning terrifying aura drowned him in an instant. He felt like he was a tiny boat out in the sea, facing a tsunami.
