Chapter 1561 - Demonic Sword Emerges

“What?” Shark Crown Prince’s expression suddenly changed at the sight.

He knew best the might of his terrifying attack. That attack, filled with rage, could kill a martial artist at the same cultivation level.

“Giant demon!”

Shark Crown Prince possessed vast knowledge; once he clearly saw the huge, black silhouette, he immediately recognized it, and his irises contracted violently. While he didn’t fear giant demons, even he felt pressured facing one at the seventh level.

As the main attacking force of the Demon Realm, giant demons were low on intelligence but thick-skinned, brutal, and bloodthirsty. On the battlefield, they were living bulldozers, hard to handle.

The giant demon was pushed back, fresh blood flowing from its palms. Evidently, Shark Crown Prince’s attack had injured it.

In an instant, the giant demon shifted its attention from Chen Fan onto Shark Crown Prince. It let out furious roars, demonic wind sweeping out from it like a storm, striking fear into others.

“

Roar, roar

!”

Enraged, the giant demon charged forward and, in a flash, arrived before Shark Crown Prince. Its hands seemed like supreme weapons capable of destroying everything; they crushed the air itself as they grabbed toward Shark Crown Prince’s head.

Boom, boom, boom!

“You beast, you’re seeking death!”

Shark Crown Prince grew furious at the sight. Law power surged from him and poured into the crystal spear; he thrust violently at the giant demon.

Bang!

The two collided, producing a dull noise. Although Shark Crown Prince’s strike stopped the giant demon’s palm, he was still pushed back several steps.

“

Wawa

.”

The giant demon was also pushed back several steps, but it was nothing. It steadied itself and immediately lunged forward once more, smashing its palm down at Shark Crown Prince.

Rumble!

Another deafening explosion rang out. Faced with the giant demon’s monstrous strength, even Shark Crown Prince could not gain any advantage; the collision sent his qi and blood churning violently.

“Cease your arrogance, beast. Eat my fist!”

Meanwhile, the other experts from the deep-sea giant-shark tribe rushed over. A peak sixth-level Immortal Platform realm unleashed a stream of fist force, looking like it could break through heaven and earth.

However, being an ordinary martial artist at the peak of the sixth level, this person was obviously much weaker than Shark Crown Prince. The giant demon smashed the attack into pieces with a swing of its palm; if the expert hadn’t dodged in time, he would have been beaten to death on the spot.

“What a powerful beast!” exclaimed the person, still feeling a lingering fear. He was drenched in cold sweat.

“Be careful, everyone. The demon’s strength is incredibly terrifying. The best tactic is to surround it and slowly wear it down,” shouted Shark Crown Prince.

Shark Crown Prince felt a deep sense of aggravation.

He was the crown prince, yet when had he ever been forced into such a situation, not daring to fight his opponent head-on? Others had always feared him; it had never been the other way around.

The more he thought about it, the more his hatred for Chen Fan skyrocketed.

If Chen Fan hadn’t lured the giant demon to him, he would never have suffered such humiliation in front of his subordinates, blemishing his dignity.

There was no other choice left for them. Chen Fan had already disappeared without a trace; they could only grit their teeth and face the giant demon. Shark Crown Prince could not even copy what Chen Fan had done and lure the demon toward someone else, as it had already locked onto them.

Meanwhile, after passing on his problem to someone else, Chen Fan unfurled his Wings of Rain Dragon, turned into a streak of light, and sped through the demon ranks.

Along the way, he came across many demons. He slaughtered the weaker ones on the spot; as for the stronger ones, they couldn’t catch up to his speed.

Half a day later, Chen Fan suddenly sensed an unusually chaotic aura ahead, as if people were battling.

Chen Fan advanced cautiously and soon found two groups of people locked in a fierce battle.

On one side was the poison flame giant crocodile tribe’s party led by Young Master Poison, and on the other side was the Star Origin Sect’s party, led by Qi Dong.

Both parties fought fiercely, and between them was a small black hill. At its peak, an iron sword, seemingly rusted, was embedded in the rock, yet it exuded the unmistakable aura of a high-grade immortal artifact.

Chen Fan opened his Eye of Breaking Deception and immediately realized that the substance on the surface of the iron sword wasn’t rust, but dried blood. No one knew how much fresh blood this immortal sword had drunk.

Young Master Poison and Qi Dong’s groups were fighting over this demonic sword.

Although both had extraordinary statuses, a high-grade immortal artifact was worth hundreds of thousands of immortal stones. How could they not be tempted?

They were carrying high-grade immortal artifacts from their respective sect and clan; possessing another would significantly increase their strength and depth, giving them another hidden card to play against others.

On the hill, the demonic sword was constantly trembling, as if it were about to awaken and emerge into the world fully.

A brilliant light flashed across Chen Fan’s eyes.

He possessed several immortal artifacts, but most were low-grade. He had only a couple of mid-grade immortal artifacts; as for high-grade immortal artifacts, he had the Nine Immortals Bell. Moreover, he would never complain about having one more immortal artifact in his arsenal.

Ever since the Sky Breaking Sword was destroyed, he didn’t have a handy immortal sword on him. When executing sword techniques, he could only condense a law sword; as a result, his power was noticeably weaker than when channeling those techniques through an actual immortal sword.

This demonic sword appeared at the perfect time for him.

However, Chen Fan dared not act now. After all, both parties surrounded the demonic sword. He would be discovered immediately if he rushed in, and would draw attacks from both sides.

“I should wait for now.”

Chen Fan calmly hid himself, looking for an opportunity.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

On the hill, the demonic sword’s trembling grew more and more intense. It seemed that the blood spilled in the clash between the two groups had stimulated the demonic sword, urging it to fly free from the hill and gorge itself on fresh blood.

Rumble!

Soon, heaven and earth shook violently. Endless demonic qi swept out in all directions, rolling like a dark tide.

Simultaneously, the unmistakable sound of a sword cry echoed in space as if rejoicing.

The demonic sword embedded on the hill turned into a black stream of light, rising into the air and sweeping out with terrifying sword qi, tearing the overwhelming demonic qi in space into shreds.

The demonic sword had emerged in the world!

“Where do you think you’re going!”

Young Master Poison and Qi Dong immediately halted their fight. Resplendent light erupted from their eyes as they channeled their law power simultaneously, grabbing toward the rising demonic sword.

However, a sharp sword's light shot forth, ripping their law-power hands to pieces. Then, the sword turned into a stream of light and tried to flee through the void.

Chen Fan was stunned.

The sword was actually sentient and could counterattack on its own, even trying to flee, as if it possessed human-like intelligence.
