Chapter 216 - Song Yang Strikes

Zhao Gao, an expert at the peak of the third level, had been split in half!

The entire Life and Death Hall plunged into a deathly silence. The crowd stared in disbelief at the teenager who landed on the ground with a stagger, their hearts profoundly shaken.

An expert at the fourth level, Song Yang, had tried to save Zhao Gao but failed.

This teenager was too ferocious.

“Little bastard, I’ll rip you apart!”

With an icy glare, Song Yang landed on the ground, and his face contorted into a savage expression. His aura stirred the heavens, and his killing intent manifested as a whistling cold wind that sent shivers down everyone’s spines.

Chen Fan had ruthlessly slain someone Song Yang had wanted to save—a blatant slap in the face.

Chen Fan purposely spewed out another mouthful of fresh blood, looking ghastly pale. However, he stared at Song Yang ruthlessly and said, “Song Yang, don’t forget our agreement. You're not among the five opponents. Why did you intervene? Are you trying to break the deal?"

“You damnable little bastard, what if I’m breaking the deal? Who will even vouch for your words? You've dared to kill three members of our society. If I decree your death, you'll meet your end!" Song Yang growled, his voice low and devilish, clearly taken aback by the unexpected turn of events.

Weren’t they supposed to be the ones humiliating Chen Fan after he had lost and was powerless to resist?

Then, why had Zhao Gao and the others died at the hands of Chen Fan? Why had even Song Yang’s attempt to save one failed?

“Hahahaha, how laughable. We are in the life-and-death arena of the Life and Death Hall. Such outcomes are inevitable. Did you honestly believe that members of your society are exempt from death?”

“Yes! Life and Death Hall rules are there to restrain weaklings like you. They can’t do a thing to Tianxia Society!” Song Yang said coldly.

He looked at Chen Fan contemptuously.

Did you think you could live just because you brought up the rules?

Did you think you could walk down from the arena alive after killing three of our members? Impossible!

“Hoho, how tyrannical, to disregard even the sect rules.”

Chen Fan chuckled coldly and said, “I never expected you to honor your words anyway. People from the Tianxia Society are inherently unreliable. I'd sooner believe a sow can climb a tree than trust you to keep a promise.”

“Little bastard, you’re seeking death!”

Song Yang flew into a rage. His aura erupted wildly, and his clothing fluttered fiercely and noisily. An intense pressure spread out, making the onlookers’ hearts tremble.

Hum!

Song Yang struck out with a palm. A fierce wind suddenly rose, his primeval force attacking like the tide.

A massive aura enveloped the area, filling the space with thousands of palm silhouettes. The silhouettes gathered, forming a huge mountain and plummeting toward the enemy. The robustness of the qi could split a wide river open.

Song Yang’s sinister voice rang out once more. “Little bastard, you killed our members and insulted us. Today, not even the gods can save you. Your fresh blood and life will atone for your sins!”

Chen Fan faced the mountainous primeval force, layered and bearing down with formidable pressure. The explosive impact ruptured the air, showcasing the substantial power gap between the third and the fourth level.

“Nine Swords of Wind Demon!”

“Undefeated King’s Fist!”

Chen Fan shouted as his primeval force spewed out like the tide.

His three heads and six arms worked in unison to unleash ferocious attacks in unison. Simultaneously, his sword hummed, releasing sword light that filled the space with whistling sword qi, cutting through everything in its path.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

Immediately, a series of explosions rang out.

“Explosive Qi Pill!”

Chen Fan suddenly cried out. His palm turned into a blur and slapped his lips, seemingly forcing a pill down his throat.

As he activated an illusory primeval vessel in his dantian, immense power erupted, propelling his aura to the peak of the second level instantly.

“Wind Demon Shocking Cloud Slash!”

Chen Fan took a fierce stance and swung his sword. The chilling sword light descended violently, its tide-like sword qi stirring ceaselessly.

Chi, chi, chi...

As the ferocious streaks of sword light pierced the air, they tore through the hundreds and thousands of palm silhouettes as if slicing through paper. Song Yang's attacks crumbled, unable to withstand the onslaught, while the relentless sword light continued its unyielding advance.

“Damn you, little bastard! You took an Explosive Qi Pill!” Song Yang shouted angrily, his expression turning darker.

However, his hands didn’t stop moving in the slightest. He hurled another palm strike, channeling all his primeval force to create a palm seal, its size akin to a door.

As it took form, the colossal primeval force palm seal exuded a regal aura, shimmering with a golden luster. After a momentary tremor, it explosively shot forth.

Clang!

When the sword light fell on the golden palm seal, it seemed to have encountered a steel wall. A sharp and ear-piercing sound of clang rang out, along with sparks flying everywhere, like a firework display.

“Explosive Qi Pill! Chen Fan consumed an Explosive Qi Pill!”

“Looks like he only agreed to Song Yang’s challenge because he was well prepared. With his cultivation and strength skyrocketing, there was a chance he might not be at a disadvantage against Song Yang.”

“That’s not for certain! It depends on whether he can defeat Song Yang before the medicinal efficacy of the Explosive Qi Pill runs out. He’d be in danger if he can’t defeat Song Yang before then.”

“......”

The crowd murmured among themselves.

𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

They had thought there wouldn’t be any suspense with Song Yang taking action. However, Chen Fan had come unexpectedly well-prepared. Now.

“Glorious King’s Fist!”

Chen Fan strode forward fiercely on the arena like a tiger.

He used an Explosive Qi Pill to mask the power coming from his illusory primeval vessel. The berserk power inside him was surging like the raging rivers.

The three heads and six arms struck out continuously. The nine powerful styles shook the space, with each punch and palm strike wielding enough power to split mountains and part seas.

Bang, bang, bang!

Song Yang’s gigantic golden palm burst under Chen Fan’s bombardment. Terrifying qi currents rolled out, rushing toward Song Yang.

White waves of qi surged, creating tumultuous air currents.

“Glorious King’s Fist! Undefeated King!”

Chen Fan struck freely, the primeval force arms behind him swinging wildly.

The nine great styles of Undefeated King’s Fist worked together, nearly turning the entire floor over.

Poof, poof, poof, poof, poof...

The relentless attacks, with enough momentum to topple mountains and overturn seas, overwhelmed Song Yang. The protective primeval force around him shook violently and exploded. The shockwave pushed him back, making him roar furiously.

Despite being at the fourth level, he found himself at Chen Fan’s mercy.

“Damn it! Damn it! Heaven and Earth Pagoda, suppress it!” Song Yang shouted angrily.

Primeval force surged from him, uniting in the air to form a pagoda with nine layers. This primeval force pagoda emitted a grand aura, seemingly capable of suppressing all demons.

“Heaven and Earth Pagoda, Great Heaven and Earth Cultivation Technique! That’s an upper-profound tier cultivation technique!”

The onlooking crowd’s expressions changed drastically.
