Chapter 711 - Destroying a Heavenly Star with One Finger

“Chen Fan’s not dead. He’s appeared again!”

“How is that possible? Didn’t he rush into the Evening Star Golden Storm? How is he still alive?”

“Maybe he was just lucky, escaping with serious injuries. But recuperating for three months means his injuries were no joke. It’s just bad timing that he was discovered now.”

“In that case, doesn’t that mean the First Dragon Lord and the others are on their way to him again?”

“That’s of course! You know Gu Hao from the Law Enforcement Hall? He found Chen Fan and sent news to the First Dragon Lord, who then relayed the information to the First Fiend, Qin Wang, and the others. They are all rushing to Chen Fan’s location.”

“Where’s he? Let’s go take a look as well! Chen Fan sure is unlucky to get discovered as soon as his injuries heal. Qin Wang and the others will surround him again. I’m afraid he won’t escape this time.”

“That’s right. The First Dragon Lord and the others have improved by leaps and bounds in the past three months. I heard they’ve all broken through to the second-level Heavenly Star realm. With their combat strength, they could fight against third-level Heavenly Star realm experts.”

“......”

News of Chen Fan still being alive instantly spread throughout the Little Demon Realm like a storm.

‘The news shocked everyone. The idea that someone presumed dead had returned ignited a fervor among the participants.

Thus, for a time, the entire Little Demon Realm was sent into an uproar again because of Chen Fan.

......

In the sky, Chen Fan looked at Gu Hao’s party with a smile and said, “You’ve already spread the news of me being alive, right?”

Gu Hao’s irises immediately shrunk violently. He said with a low voice, “You knew?”

“What? You thought you could hide it from my eyes?” said Chen Fan, with a hint of mockery on his face.

Gu Hao’s expression turned ugly and said, “Why didn’t you stop us? If even I have advanced to the Heavenly Star realm, the First Dragon Lord and the others are bound to be stronger. You weren’t even a match for them three months ago. Your cultivation hasn’t increased, and you’ve just recovered from your heavy injuries. Once they are here, you’ll die!”

Chen Fan’s expression did not change in the slightest. He said indifferently, “I’ll tell you the truth. I told you earlier that I was severely injured in the Evening Star Golden Storm earlier and had to recuperate for three months, right? Well, that was a lie.”

“What?”

Gu Hao and the others’ expressions changed drastically.

Chen Fan continued, “You people have indeed improved tremendously, but my progress is still greater than yours. You people simply can’t imagine what I’ve obtained in the storm! For you people, the Evening Star Golden Storm was a terrifying disaster; for me, it was an opportunity.

“Think about it. Why did I dart into the storm? Because I was forced by Qin Wang and the others? What a joke! If I want to leave, no one in this entire realm can stop me.

“I just lied to you guys to make you spread false information about me. That will lure them all over, so that I can catch them all in one fell swoop, saving me the trouble of going everywhere to find them one by one.”

From Gu Hao and the others’ point of view, Chen Fan’s explanation seemed like a madman’s monologue.

Gu Hao immediately came back to his senses and shouted, “Hurry, send word to the First Dragon Lord!”

The person beside him tried to send a signal, but a punch came flying toward him.

“Too late!” Chen Fan shook his head, retracting his fist.

The space shook momentarily as a stream of terrifying fist force blasted over like a meteorite.

That half-step Heavenly Star realm Law Enforcement Hall disciple couldn’t even scream before he was blown to oblivion, leaving nothing behind.

“Alright, you guys no longer have any value. You can go die now!”

Chen Fan stepped forward, unleashing a terrifying aura that surged through the area.

The entire space seemed to transform into a cage, pulling Gu Hao and the others into an abyss of despair.

The overwhelming power, like that of a deity, crushed their will to resist.

Even Gu Hao—a Heavenly Star realm expert—felt his limbs turn to ice under Chen Fan’s pressure.

Three months ago, Chen Fan was powerful, but nowhere near this level.

Gu Hao, too, was a pride of heaven—an exceptional genius on par with the First Dragon Lord and the others. Yet, before Chen Fan, his limbs seemed to revolt, refusing to listen to his will.

Finally, he realized that the monologue was the truth.

Chen Fan had really obtained a heavenly opportunity within the Evening Star Golden Storm, which made him significantly stronger. The sheer force of his aura rendered even a Heavenly Star realm cultivator like Gu Hao defenseless.

It was too terrifying!

He couldn’t imagine what would happen when the First Dragon Lord and the others arrived. A massacre seemed inevitable, and the True Martial Academy would descend into chaos.

But none of that mattered now.

He didn’t want to die.

As a genius with limitless potential, he refused to perish like this.

Hands at his back, Chen Fan slowly closed in as the pressure emanating from him became increasingly terrifying.

Poof, poof, poof...

Some eighth and ninth-level Divine Nascent realms could not withstand the pressure and exploded. Not even their divine nascent could escape.

Meanwhile, the half-step Heavenly Star realm stubbornly tried to resist the pressure, but their bones began cracking under the immense pressure, and blood seeped from their seven orifices.

Horror filled their faces. They couldn’t fathom Chen Fan’s strength; his mere aura had led powerful Divine Nascent martial artists to gruesome deaths without him lifting a finger.

A half-step Heavenly Star realm could not hold on any longer and spoke out, begging for mercy with much difficulty.

“No, don’t kill me, I don’t want to die!”

“I’m willing to tell you a secret. All I ask is for you to spare my life!” pleaded another half-step Heavenly Star realm expert.

“Oh? Let’s hear it,” Chen Fan said indifferently. “If it’s interesting, I can spare your life.”

“You’ll definitely be interested!”

“Yuan Tong, you...”

Gu Hao’s expression changed. However, before he could finish his sentence, Chen Fan pointed a finger at him. Immediately, an unrivaled storm stirred in heaven and earth, tearing through the void.

An unrivaled storm surged from Chen Fan’s fingertip, tearing through the void and shattering the space around it.

Boom!

The force ripped through Gu Hao. A brilliant light exploded from him before it shattered into endless fragments, disappearing into nothingness.

One finger to kill a Heavenly Star realm expert!

Aside from Yuan Tong, the ripples from that one gesture thoroughly destroyed everyone.

“Alright, you can speak now.”
