Chapter 471 - Thunder Wielding Divine Blade

Chen Fan looked at the person standing in his way. A cold light flickered in his eyes as he said in an icy tone, “Dongfang Yu, you’re going to stand in my way?”

As Chen Fan's status rose within the Spring Autumn Sect, his knowledge naturally expanded as well.

Dongfang Yu was the number one holy disciple of the Blade Thunder Mountain, with eighth-level Core Formation realm cultivation. He was ranked eighth on the Great Chu Empire’s Geniuses of Heaven Leaderboard, above Duan Jingtian.

Dongfang Yu's brow furrowed slightly at Chen Fan’s words, which were filled with icy killing intent.

Honestly, he didn’t want to get involved in the turbulent conflict between the two clans.

However, Qin Wudi was once a disciple of the Blade Thunder Mountain, and they had maintained a close relationship. Now that Chen Fan wanted to kill Qin Wudi, he felt compelled to intervene.

“Chen Fan, it’s wise to show mercy whenever possible. You’ve already killed too many people today. Nearly all the Qin Clan’s experts have fallen by your hand. Aren’t you afraid of the bad karma that will come from committing so many murders?” Dongfang Yu said.

Killing disrupted the harmony of heaven, especially for martial artists like them. It would surely bring about greater tribulations on their martial path in the future.

“Hahahaha.” Chen Fan laughed out loud before he replied contemptuously, “Spare others whenever possible, you say? Too bad, I’ve only heard that if you don’t remove the roots, the grass will grow again with the spring breeze.

“Move aside, Dongfang Yu. You are strong but not strong enough to stop me. No one, including you, can stop me from killing him. I will kill you as well if you don’t move out of the way!”

Boom!

A terrifying killing intent burst out from Chen Fan, shrouding heaven and earth. Those who felt it recoiled, sensing that Chen Fan was a killing god from hell, ready to slaughter everyone.

Facing the boundless killing intent surging from Chen Fan, Dongfang Yu’s irises shrank violently. However, Chen Fan’s words had angered him.

Ranked eighth on the Geniuses of Heaven Leaderboard, Dongfang Yu felt Chen Fan was treating him as a weakling he could kill at will. Chen Fan was blatantly disregarding him—the number one holy disciple of Blade Thunder Mountain.

“Insolence!” Dongfang Yu shouted, looking furious. He said coldly, “Not even Duan Jingtian is qualified to speak to me like that! Let it be known, I’m protecting Qin Wudi!”

Rumble!

The crowd felt as if a thunderclap had exploded in their minds, making their scalps tingle.

Dongfang Yu would fight Chen Fan?

They had heard of Dongfang Yu before; he was a fearsome figure. Although he was also at the eighth level, not even ten Qin Pokong combined would be a match for Dongfang Yu.

Chen Fan said indifferently, “I’m not looking down on you, Dongfang Yu. Although Duan Jingtian is ranked lower than you, you’re not even close to his level. Do you really think the leaderboard accurately reflects true strength?”

Chen Fan’s words made Dongfang Yu flush with anger, waves of icy killing intent surging from him.

“How arrogant. Since that’s the case, allow me to experience your true strength today!” Dongfang Yu said icily.

Chen Fan answered coldly, “Since you want to die, I will oblige. You must think being eighth on the leaderboard makes you something, huh? Fine, I shall cut down a leaderboard expert today to establish my name!”

Chen Fan’s aura surged, covering heaven and earth.

“Shameless boasting!” Dongfang Yu was truly enraged by Chen Fan’s words.

Dongfang Yu was revered and feared wherever he went. No one dared to disrespect him.

But today, Chen Fan insulted him repeatedly in front of countless people. He could no longer hold back.

His terrifying cultivation erupted. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled around him.

He practiced a lightning-attributed cultivation technique, which boasted immense offensive power. True primeval rushed out from his head, reaching the skies.

Rumble!

The sky changed in an instant. Dark clouds gathered, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

A ferocious look appeared on Dongfang Yu’s face. Today, he would publicly take down Chen Fan to prove his strength!

After all, it was Chen Fan who provoked and insulted him repeatedly. Even the Spring Autumn Sect couldn't object to this.

With a blade in his right hand and his left hand forming a seal, he chanted, “Profound ksetra of the nine heavens, transform into divine thunder. Brilliant heavenly might, guided by my blade!”

All of a sudden, heaven and earth changed colors.

A gigantic black vortex appeared, spinning rapidly in the sky.

Lightning flashed and the wind howled.

Deep within the clouds, countless lightning flashes rapidly converged. The sound of thunder rumbling roared continuously in the sky. A silver-colored lightning dragon suddenly descended and struck Dongfang Yu’s blade.

“Kill!” Dongfang Yu shouted, raising his blade high up. Another silver-colored lightning dragon fell from the sky, connecting with his blade.

This scene seemed to have become eternal, forever engraved in everyone’s mind.

Boom, tch!

He slashed down violently, and the blade light transformed into a silver lightning dragon, wrapped in brilliant heavenly might. It darted toward Chen Fan, aiming to annihilate all evil.

The attack stunned the world, making ghosts and gods weep. Dongfang Yu had unleashed a merciless, absolute killing move.

Chen Fan’s muscles tightened under the attack’s might, sensing a terrifying power that shook his soul.

The nearby crowd murmured in shock, their eyes flickering.

“What a terrifying attack. This is Blade Thunder Mountain’s restricted martial art—Thunder Wielding Divine Blade. It isn’t passed down to ordinary disciples. It contains boundless power. My god, it’s my first time seeing it. It lives up to its name, drawing the divine thunder of the nine heavens, connecting heaven and earth!”

“It can reduce even a hundred-thousand-foot-tall mountain to rubble, let alone a person. As expected of the number one holy disciple of the Blade Thunder Mountain. He really deserves to be ranked eighth with that strength.”

“I wonder how Chen Fan will respond to this attack?”

“......”

The attack was so strong that now even the opponent’s ghost would be left behind.

“So, this is the Thunder Wielding Divine Blade? Drawing upon heavenly lightning to achieve a peak power with your blade art.... It surely deserves its reputation. No wonder Blade Thunder Mountain’s blade cultivators draw upon lightning daily to temper their blades. Otherwise, one couldn’t withstand the profound lightning of the nine heavens.”

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, sensing immense pressure. However, he did not cower under this pressure. Instead, his blood was boiling.

Dongfang Yu’s strength was truly powerful.

The difference between the strength of Qin Pokong and Dongfang Yu was like heaven and earth.
