Chapter 1450 - All Present, Compete

Xuan Yang’s voice was filled with overwhelming killing intent.

When had he ever been challenged like this since founding the Twin Prides Alliance?

Chen Fan was blatantly targeting their alliance and trying to poach its members, shaking its foundation. What was it if not disregarding him, Xuan Yang?!

“Kill me?” Facing Xuan Yang’s icy killing intent, Chen Fan showed no fear. He raised his chin slightly and said, “Try it.”

Did Xuan Yang really think Chen Fan was still the same person as before? Now, there wasn’t a single person in the entire Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm capable of ending him.

Even if Chen Fan might not match Xuan Yang entirely, claiming that Xuan Yang could kill him was sheer delusion.

“Hoho, Xuan Yang, are you looking to go to war with my Xiao Sect?” Xiao Ruyue smiled. A powerful aura surged from her, clashing with Xuan Yang head-on.

In the past, her Xiao Sect had indeed been slightly inferior to the Twin Prides Alliance; after all, Li Yu was no match for Xuan Xing.

But now, with Xuan Xing defeated so thoroughly by Chen Fan, no one from the Twin Prides Alliance—except Xuan Yang—could hope to rival him. All Xiao Ruyue needed to do was hold back Xuan Yang, and the Xiao Sect could strike, leaving the Twin Prides Alliance at their mercy.

The nearby crowd watched silently in fear as both sides confronted each other, seemingly about to break out into a war.

Of course, many secretly hoped the two sides would clash: a battle between them would leave both weakened, giving others a chance to seize the ancient emperor’s legacy.

Xuan Yang’s icy gaze fell on Xiao Ruyue, carrying hints of gloominess. It seemed like she was determined to protect Chen Fan.

If he dared to go to war with them, Xiao Ruyue could hold him back, and Chen Fan could unleash a massacre on the Twin Prides Alliance’s side. He was aware that Chen Fan had trounced Xuan Xing.

For Chen Fan to have overpowered Xuan Xing, his strength had to be comparable to a ninth-stage half-immortal. If they went to war, his Twin Prides Alliance would be utterly outmatched.

Xuan Yang couldn’t help but curse inwardly. In the past, conflicts with the Xiao Sect had been frequent, yet they had always held the upper hand because no one in the Xiao Sect could rival Xuan Xing.

However, the situation had changed ever since Chen Fan joined the Xiao Sect.

If Xiao Ruyue had dared to challenge him like this in the past, he would immediately go to war with her without hesitation, but now...

Amidst the tense atmosphere, a thunderous laughter resounded, drawing the crowd’s gazes.

“Hahahaha, what a lively party. It seems like I’m not late.”

Another absolute force had arrived. It was the Evil Palace’s people.

Swish, swish, swish.

And they weren’t alone; the Celestial Maiden Alliance and the God Killer Palace had also arrived at the tomb almost simultaneously.

Each of these factions possessed the power to sweep through entire armies, yet they had been delayed, hunted by the army of law creatures. Still, by absolute standards, they were right on time.

After all, strength mattered when it came to seizing the ancient emperor’s legacy.

With the arrival of the three absolute forces, the tense atmosphere between the Xiao Sect and the Twin Prides Alliance immediately dissipated.

The goal of everyone present was to seize the ancient emperor’s legacy. Weakening both sides through reckless fighting would only remove them from contention. Clearly, such an act would be foolish.

“Hahahaha, how extravagant. Even the coffin is a high-grade immortal artifact. Excellent.” The Evil Palace’s Xie Qingjin glanced at the coffin, laughed out loud, and immediately made a move.

Xuan Yang immediately flew into a rage and unleashed the Polar Divine Fist against Xie Qingjin.

“What audacity! The legacy belongs to our Twin Prides Alliance!”

“Attack, seize the legacy!”

“Get lost, the legacy is mine!”

The crowd instantly erupted. Even the Five Absolutes, despite their immense power, did not inspire fear; the ancient emperor’s legacy was too tempting. In an instant, the scene descended into utter chaos.

Boom, boom, boom!

It quickly turned into a chaotic brawl.

Having come this far, everyone wanted to obtain the ancient emperor’s legacy within the coffin.

Endless primeval qi and law power exploded in space.

Numerous half-immortal realm experts unleashed their full strength simultaneously, creating a scene of devastating destruction that was enough to obliterate even a secret realm.

Even so, the tomb remained standing, as if it were just a minor scuffle between a bunch of mortals. Not a single powerful formation buried deep in the tomb had been fully activated.

“It's time.”

Chen Fan also charged forth.

Naturally, he too wanted to seize the ancient emperor’s legacy for himself.

Yet he quickly realized that the coffin, though seemingly only a few kilometers away, was far deeper than it appeared. The tomb was layered across multiple planes of space, and the coffin lay in the deepest layer.

Chen Fan sped forth, but he was still only at the outermost layer of space.

“Damn it, tear open!” Chen Fan roared and broke this spatial barrier in an instant, charging into the second layer of the spatial barrier.

𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

However, there were too many of these spatial barriers. There was no telling how much time it would take to break through them one by one.

At this time, he saw the strongest people, like Ji Lanshan and Xiao Ruyue, tearing through layers of space with each strike, shattering them effortlessly.

They weren’t alone; several other ninth-stage half-immortal realm experts were also pressing deeper, advancing with unrelenting power.

These people were all solo operatives. Although they didn’t establish a force for themselves, they were very powerful, second only to the top five people like Xiao Ruyue.

Numerous people were following behind Chen Fan, breaking through layers of obstacles and catching up to him.

As he continued tearing through the spatial layers, Chen Fan finally revealed the full extent of his might. While perhaps slightly below Xiao Ruyue’s level, he rivaled the strongest solo ninth-stage half-immortals.

Seeing this scene, the crowd behind him was astonished by Chen Fan’s strength. It was no wonder that he had faced the Twin Prides Alliance with no fear.

But as Chen Fan pressed onward, shattering space with sheer force, something alarming appeared: powerful figures materialized abruptly from the void.

The crowd turned pale with fright. Looking carefully, they were the figures of the ancient emperor on the stone walls, and were incomparably powerful.

Many people couldn’t react in time and fell victim to the ambush of these figures. They were caught in the air and crushed into mists of blood.

These figures were incredibly powerful, containing the supreme will of the ancient emperor. No one could resist that will.

Chen Fan even witnessed an eighth-stage half-immortal realm expert, taken by surprise, surrounded by several of these figures, and overwhelmed by relentless assault after assault.

Thousands of such figures loomed, and far fewer half-immortal realm experts had advanced this far. The imbalance was dire: each half-immortal realm expert faced the onslaught of multiple, sometimes over a dozen, of these supreme figures.
