Chapter 1529 - Killing Deng Hui

“This... how is that possible? Deng Hui’s attack can’t reach Chen Fan. What kind of divine art is that?”

The crowd within the city was dumbfounded at the sight.

Moments before, they’d thought Chen Fan was simply arrogant and foolishly overconfident, but now? Their doubts evaporated, replaced by awe and curiosity.

“What an amazing, divine art. Where did he come from, to have cultivated such a powerful immortal art? He can’t be just someone ordinary!”

“No shit! Has any ordinary second-level Immortal Platform expert fought a fourth-level Immortal Platform expert toe-to-toe before?”

“If Deng Hui’s attack can’t touch him, then Chen Fan’s basically invincible. How does one even compete with that?

“Amazing! Truly amazing!”

Countless people from Guangyuan City, from Immortal Platform realm experts to Legendary, or even Manifestation realm martial artists, were stunned by Chen Fan’s move.

Meanwhile, Deng Hui’s expression became incredibly grave.

If his attacks failed to reach Chen Fan, every bit of effort would be meaningless. Chen Fan would be untouchable; once Deng Hui’s law power ran dry, he’d be like a fish laid out on the chopping block, ready for Chen Fan to finish him off.

“Damned brat, so this is your secret? Here I thought you were actually strong, but you’re just hiding behind a cheap trick, trying to wear down my law power!” Deng Hui said loudly.

Hearing this, Chen Fan immediately scoffed and said, “Old coot, I know you’re trying to taunt me. And congratulations! You’ve succeeded. Looks like you’ve reached your limit, but you can’t even scratch my divine art. Seriously disappointing.”

Chen Fan withdrew the Void Invincibility Art; the divine art hadn’t disappointed him. Although he had only scratched the surface, the divine art had proven impenetrable to a fourth-level Immortal Platform expert like Deng Hui.

“

Hmph

, take this!”

The moment Chen Fan withdrew the art, a murderous gleam danced in Deng Hui’s eyes. He shot forth like an arrow from the bowstring, speeding toward Chen Fan. His spear ignited in dazzling light; a flash, and he was upon him.

With an upward flick of his wrist, Chen Fan deflected Deng Hui’s attack with the Sky Breaking Sword.

Yet Deng Hui wasn’t just powerful; he was experienced. His arm shook, sending the air exploding and the wind howling as he swept horizontally.

Boom, boom, boom!

The two engaged in a back-and-forth, clashing countless times.

Deng Hui’s spear was a mid-grade immortal artifact that had been refined over countless years. On the other hand, Chen Fan’s Sky Breaking Sword was only a low-grade immortal artifact; in his hands, it displayed unimaginable might.

Both fighters moved faster, feeding off each other's intensity. Despite Deng Hui’s superior cultivation, Chen Fan’s overwhelming physique allowed him to move freely, refusing to let Deng Hui control the tempo.

The longer they fought, the more intense the rage in Deng Hui’s eyes became.

He’d begun this battle dismissive; now, dread gnawed at the edges of his mind. Chen Fan was no ordinary monster.

So be it if he possessed tremendous combat strength, but why wasn’t Chen Fan running out of law power, even after clashing endlessly?

Boom!

The sword tip and the spear tip collided in the air once more. Deng Hui didn’t retreat. Instead, he stomped his foot forcefully, pushing himself forward toward Chen Fan like a lightning bolt, appearing before him in the blink of an eye. His spear whistled through the sky, angling directly for Chen Fan’s head, intent on ending this.

“Go to hell!”

𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

An incomparably savage expression appeared on Deng Hui’s face, his gaze icy. But Chen Fan reacted instantly, raising his hand in defense.

Boom!

Deng Hui’s spear struck Chen Fan’s Sky Breaking Sword. With a loud boom, the Sky Breaking Sword shattered. After all, it was only a low-grade immortal artifact, with a huge gap compared to Deng Hui’s spear.

The spear shattered the Sky Breaking Sword and continued flying toward Chen Fan. However, the latter caught the spear with his bare hands, making it impossible for Deng Hui to move an inch closer.

Then, Chen Fan flung his arm. A stream of terrifying force swept out, forcing Deng Hui to stumble backward, looking horrified.

“Aw, my sword’s broken...” Chen Fan muttered, staring at the hilt before tossing it aside. Looking up, he grinned. “Guess I’ll just beat you to death with my fists instead.”

“What arrogance!” Deng Hui flew into a rage. Stomping his feet, he charged toward Chen Fan with a terrifying momentum that shook heaven and earth.

“

Hmph

!” Chen Fan snorted coldly as he charged forward bare-handed.

Boom

!

The fists and spear connected. The sky ruptured in ripples from the impact, the shockwaves rolling outwards.

Thump, thump, thump.

Both Chen Fan and Deng Hui were pushed back.

“

Hiss, hiss

.”

A thousand gasps sliced through the stunned crowd. To block Deng Hui’s all-out strike with nothing but bare hands, what inhuman physique did Chen Fan possess

Deng Hui’s expression also changed drastically. He never dreamt Chen Fan’s physique was strong enough to rival even a mid-grade immortal weapon.

Thump!

Chen Fan paid no heed to any of this. Only by fighting with his bare hands could he display his true strength.

Boom, boom, boom!

Fists blazed across the heavens like shooting stars, shattering the air and streaking toward Deng Hui. Now, at last, Chen Fan unleashed his monstrous strength.

Facing Chen Fan’s storm-like attacks, Deng Hui fell into a disadvantaged position at once, looking incredibly miserable.

“My god, Deng Hui is actually no match!”

The crowd was dumbfounded at the sight.

Under such relentless attacks, Deng Hui’s shock gave way to fury. If this kept going, Chen Fan would really beat him to death right here.

A crazed look shone in his eyes.

“Little bastard, you’re courting death!”

Boom!

He slammed his feet down, shattering the ground beneath him. In a flash, he lunged, his spear slashing toward Chen Fan—a killing stroke.

“

Hoh

, you’re prepared to fight to the death, huh? Unfortunately, you’re too old. You already have a foot in your grave, and you’re still trying to fight to the death like a hot-blooded young man. How pathetic!”

Chen Fan reached out with one hand, grabbing the spear. The tip of the spear struck Chen Fan’s palm, the clash singing out like clashing metal.

Robust law power rippled at the center, sweeping out ring after ring, forming large cracks in the void.

The crowd watched the fight in stunned silence.

Determined to fight to the death, Deng Hui ignited his law power and his immortal Dao laws in exchange for a burst of strength. Yet, Chen Fan still blocked his attack with a single hand. Was his hand made of iron?

Even if it were, under Deng Hui’s attack, it should have turned into scrap metal!

Boom, tch!

An intense wind-breaking noise rang out. A large cauldron descended from the sky, smashing directly toward Deng Hui.

It was the Eight Treasures Universe Cauldron.

Showing razor reflexes, Deng Hui abandoned his spear and leaped away, just before the cauldron slammed into the earth. An explosion so fierce occurred that the ground caved in like a landslide.

Rumble!

“Take it back!”

Chen Fan hurled Deng Hui’s spear back to him.

Tchhhh!

Sharp, ear-piercing noises rang out immediately. The spear tore through the air like a black dragon, whizzing toward Deng Hui at lightning speed.

“Stop!”

Deng Hui’s expression changed drastically. Immortal light shone resplendently around him as his law power surged, turning into a law hand, trying to catch the oncoming spear.

However, it was shattered in an instant. The spear continued rushing toward him with an unstoppable momentum.

Puchi!

The spear broke through all of Deng Hui’s defense in a flash, piercing his heart.

Time froze. The arena was so silent that a falling pin would tremble in the void.

Deng Hui, a fourth-level Immortal Platform realm, was nailed to the void with his own spear. His vitality rapidly drained away. His complexion grayed, and the light in his eyes gradually faded.

Countless people were left speechless.

They didn’t expect the battle to end so soon.

Yes, it was very sudden!

Moments ago, Chen Fan and Deng Hui were trading blows, the battle so close, neither could gain an edge. But once Chen Fan let loose his true power, Deng Hui had no answer—rendered helpless, defeated, dead in a heartbeat.
