Chapter 491 - Unmatched Fierce Battle

Rumble!

A terrifyingly destructive storm broke out with deafening explosions, ravaging the space.

A violent turbulence engulfed the entire central area, capable of shredding a Core Formation realm expert.

In that chaotic space, two people exchanged blows fiercely, creating massive shockwaves that swept through the area.

Everyone was shaken, struggling to maintain their composure.

“Blast!”

A massive hand suddenly tore through space, aiming directly at Duan Jingtian.

“Annihilate!” With a commanding voice and unmatched aura, Duan Jingtian made his true primeval erupt, shaking the heavens. Following his furious shout, he unleashed a brilliant light with the Purgatory Divine Halberd, striking at the enormous hand like a fierce flood dragon.

Boom!

A loud clash echoed as the Purgatory Divine Halberd shredded the gigantic hand. Primeval qi from the hand quickly scattered in all directions.

Boom, boom, boom!

The terrifying storm hadn’t stopped ravaging the area. A large portion of space collapsed before everyone's eyes, descending into chaos.

A thunderous spear light cut through the sky, as if from the depths of space-time, poised to pierce heaven and earth and strike down Duan Jingtian.

“

Hmph

!” Duan Jingtian snorted coldly and flipped his left hand, unleashing a Shifting Mountain Seal. An ancient divine mountain materialized, suppressing the starry sky, and crashed toward the spear light.

He simultaneously waved his right hand and sent a halberd light slicing through space-time, aiming to shred Chen Fan.

Woo, woo, woo. Woo, woo, woo...

The wind howled mournfully. The air couldn’t escape in time and was compressed by their fierce exchange, becoming as dense as steel plates, only to be torn apart by the immense force.

Bang, bang, bang. Boom, boom, boom...

Deafening explosions rang out endlessly like a cascade of firecrackers. The entire space turned into a destructive space-time, destroying everything.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian fought through this destruction like two gods. Their exchange set off even more destruction that radiated outwards, threatening to annihilate the entire universe.

“This... Is this really a clash between human martial artists?”

“It’s too scary. The sky collapsing and seas drying up aren’t enough to describe it.”

“Are you sure those two are just Core Formation realm experts, not Divine Nascent realm powerhouses?”

“They are exceptional geniuses. Immortals among us mortals, I say. Although they haven’t cultivated for long, they are far stronger than those old monsters who have cultivated for over a century.”

“......”

Countless people were shocked by their intense battle. Only a fight between two gods could create such a horrifying sight of destruction.

Apart from the disciples, even the grand elders of the Spring Autumn Sect stared wide-eyed and slack-jawed. They felt their centuries of life had been in vain, ashamed of their inferiority to the two young men in battle.

“Frightening! Too frightening! Indeed, the new generation constantly replaces the old, and we can only fade into obscurity. We old men are no match for them.”

“Indeed. Both of them wield terrifying strength, allowing them to crush any martial artists in the same cultivation level. Their combat strength is comparable to ninth-level Core Formation realm experts. They are at the pinnacle of the Core Formation realm.”

“The young are to be feared. The young are truly to be feared!”

“Such a pity that our sect’s internal struggles are this severe. Without this conflict, our sect wouldn’t have to worry about its prosperity with these two around.”

Many of the grand elders from the neutral faction sighed in frustration.

This should have been a sign of great future prosperity for the Spring Autumn Sect. Unfortunately, the internal strife within the sect led these two to stand on opposite sides, resulting in a battle that would decide the sect’s fate.

Regardless of whether Chen Fan or Duan Jingtian perished, it would be an unbearable loss for the Spring Autumn Sect.

An exceptional genius is worth more than hundreds or even thousands of mediocre talents.

“Damn it, how could Chen Fan, that little bastard, be so powerful? How is he fighting Duan Jingtian on equal grounds? Damn it, damn it!”

Merit Elder, Elder Liehuo, and the others’ expressions appeared somewhat gloomy. They clenched their fists tightly, feeling the urge to rush in there and help Duan Jingtian deal with Chen Fan.

“Kid, you must win!” Wei Buyu and the other grand elders in the high elder’s faction also looked very anxious. Their palms were covered in sweat, and their hearts were pounding.

It was as if Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian weren’t the ones fighting, but them.

......

His back straight, Duan Jingtian held the Purgatory Divine Halberd with an indifferent look. His aura shot straight up to the sky, rushing toward Chen Fan. He stepped across the vast sky, crushing the void with his steps. His berserk strength surged, making it impossible for others to look straight at him. He was like the reincarnation of an ancient god.

“Chen Fan, go to hell!”

Duan Jingtian moved with incredible speed, instantly crossing the vast sky and leaving a trail of afterimages behind him.

His berserk strength surged with shocking momentum. His combat strength rose to the peak, his qi swallowing mountains and rivers.

“Go meet your maker!” Duan Jingtian shouted coldly. It seemed like his Purgatory Divine Halberd could cut through the world. Countless stars fell like rain, and the wailing of gods resounded in space. It was like the Twilight of the Gods. [1]

The terrifying halberd shattered the fabric of space-time, returning it to primal chaos as it stabbed toward Chen Fan. It was the epitome of terror.

Chen Fan did not show any signs of weakness. His aura surged ever higher like the tide, and his aura boiled, sweeping across the lands.

Thrusting his arm out fiercely, Chen Fan set off a monstrous wave. The spear in his hand was like a pillar that could hold up the sky, sweeping across.

Rumble!

The Purgatory Divine Halberd collided with Chen Fan’s iron spear. The space at the heart of the collision was directly torn apart, then crumbled and collapsed like a landslide. It seemed like the end of the world had arrived.

Many people were incredibly shocked, feeling like ants in front of Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian. They loomed infinitely large in their eyes, dominating the skies.

“Very well, Chen Fan, you truly didn’t disappoint me. It’s no wonder you defeated Dongfang Yu. You are indeed very powerful, but no matter how strong you are, only death awaits you today!”

Though Duan Jingtian was astonished by Chen Fan’s strength, he remained resolute. He had underestimated Chen Fan, despite knowing he was powerful enough to defeat Dongfang Yu.

However, his mind remained incomparably firm. No matter how strong Chen Fan was, Duan Jingtian was certain he would cut him down.

With an even colder expression and a gaze sharp as a blade, Duan Jingtian moved the Purgatory Divine Halberd again. It drew a streak of ebony light that rushed toward Chen Fan.

Boom!

The Purgatory Divine Halberd unleashed a boundless pressure, piercing the void. Murderous qi enveloped the halberd, sweeping across the sky. It covered heaven and earth and shrouded Chen Fan; it was like purgatory was materializing around him.
