Chapter 726 - Advance into Heavenly Star

“Eternal Divine Wind!”

The wind startled the already terrified demons, making them flee even faster.

“What is the Eternal Divine Wind doing here? Is he advancing to the Legendary realm and ascending to immortality or what? These calamities don’t appear even if someone enters the Manifestation realm.”

“This human must have done something to anger the heavens. Such terrifying punishments are here to thoroughly kill him and prevent future trouble."

"Stop talking and run! These calamities can’t harm him, but we are toast if they even touch us.”

“......”

Demons shrieked and fled in panic, some using demonic secret arts to escape.

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

The wind howled, growing fiercer. Air currents turned into storms, trapping all living beings. Movement became impossible, and space and time melted within it.

The Eternal Divine Wind earned its name because it transformed everything into eternal wind, erasing all traces of existence.

Chen Fan had refined fifty pieces of hell ore to advance to the Heavenly Star realm. Of the four major elements—water, fire, earth, and wind—he had already survived three great calamities: Jambudvipa Tribulation Water, Ephemeral Epiphyllum Fire, and Black Yellow Tribulation Earth.

The final calamity, Eternal Divine Wind, had finally appeared.

Once he withstood it, he would advance into the Heavenly Star realm, reaching the pinnacle of power in one step.

The Eternal Divine Wind blew into Chen Fan’s body and began to brew.

Soon after, the four elements—water, fire, earth, and wind—gathered completely within him. A vast power descended, causing the energy inside him to boil and explode.

“My god, is he even human? This is no mortal—this is an immortal! All four terrifying calamities have appeared. Isn’t he undergoing the tribulation to ascend into immortality?”

From afar, some geniuses of the True Martial Academy saw the scene and were stunned.

They were top contenders of their generation, yet none of them had faced such calamities when advancing to the Heavenly Star realm.

Even the most talented of them all only faced the Jambudvipa Tribulation Water.

Their heavenly star tribulation couldn’t even be compared to Chen Fan’s.

If any of them had to endure what Chen Fan was going through, they would have turned to ash in the tribulation.

“It’s no wonder Peerless Peak took an interest in him. I’m guessing he’s an immortal’s reincarnate. There’s no other explanation for all this.”

“Exactly. That would explain his terrifying strength and the level of this tribulation.”

“Say, he was already very terrifying when he was a ninth-level Divine Nascent realm expert. How powerful would he be once he advances into the Heavenly Star realm?”

“Who knows?”

“......”

Many geniuses and prides of heaven watched from afar, too afraid to approach, knowing the Eternal Divine Wind would annihilate their divine nascent if they got too close.

Crackle!

Inside Chen Fan’s body, it was as if a frozen river had begun to thaw.

The divine wind grew fiercer, even tearing through the space of the Little Demon Realm.

The demons scattered like headless flies, but wherever they ran, the Eternal Divine Wind blew them back.

“Demons, your doom has come. Become the stepping stones for me to achieve the Heavenly Star realm!”

Chen Fan walked out of the Eternal Divine Wind, leading the divine wind. Anything touched by the wind crumbled.

Chla!

The Flood Dragon Fist Scripture blasted out, collapsing a vast space. Countless demons perished, their screams echoing miserably.

The demons disintegrated, crumbling inch by inch in the divine wind, powerless against its force.

Buzz, buzz.

The power inside Chen Fan grew increasingly stronger and more terrifying. The Eternal Divine Wind became even fiercer.

He channeled the Heaven Seizing Furnace, devouring the wind’s power. Finally, he sat cross-legged, immersing himself in the true essence of the four elements as he advanced into the Heavenly Star realm.

Just as he was comprehending the four major elements of the universe’s origin in the Eternal Divine Wind, there was a huge disturbance in the outside world.

His score surged dramatically as the demons died, skyrocketing like a rocket to a whole new level. He had become a legend, cementing his place in history.

No rookie had ever obtained such a high score since the establishment of the True Martial Academy.

Rumble!

Smoke billowed around the Demon Realm Platform as the massive crystal scoreboard trembled. Ripples spread around it, and blinding light filled the air.

Chen Fan’s name became so big that it could be seen clearly from hundreds of kilometers away. His score skyrocketed, leaving everyone far behind, especially the second place.

“What’s going on? What exactly is happening? No one else had perished, so why is Chen Fan’s score soaring like this? Isn’t it rising too quickly? He’s not cheating, is he?”

“It’s impossible for him to be cheating. The rookie Demon Hunting Competition has been going on for far too long for anyone to cheat. The only explanation is that Chen Fan killed a terrifying demon and has obtained a massive amount of points.”

“What terrifying demon? Could it be a Manifestation realm demon? He’s a martial artist who hadn’t even reached the Heavenly Star realm. How could he have accomplished something like that?”

“......”

People near the platform started arguing in confusion.

On the Peerless Peak’s side, Jian Qi was dumbfounded.

“Junior Brother, what a god of a man he is!”

“I know, right? It’s one thing to have killed the six peerless prides of heaven before, but why is his score rising even faster now? I-it’s unimaginable! What kind of earth-shattering feat did he pull off i-in there?” Yan Weiyi stammered, barely able to speak.

“Chen Fan is creating history.” Duanmu Lingxing looked at the crystal scoreboard and said to Di Chen, “Second Senior Brother, have you gotten in touch with First Senior Brother? The competition is about to end. I’m afraid several peaks will make a move on Chen Fan, perhaps even Legendary realm experts will take action.”

Di Chen’s eyes were bright as snow as he said, “I’ve already sent a message to First Senior Brother, but I haven’t gotten a reply. Let’s not get anxious and silently observe for now.”

This year’s Demon Hunting Competition was completely upended by Chen Fan.

While the crowd outside argued fiercely, Chen Fan's advancement had reached its final stage.

“The profound doctrine of the Martial Dao. Breaking all laws of nature with one’s fist, suppressing the lands with strength, unfettered across the world. Outside the five elements, I alone reign supreme!”

Chen Fan stood in the Eternal Divine Wind, his steps shaking the ages.

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

With him as the center, the Eternal Divine Wind that spanned five thousand kilometers grew more and more ferocious.

Wind dragons emerged from the storm, unleashing destructive gusts aimed at obliterating everything that defied heaven’s might.

A deluge of devils and void heavenly demons manifested like a storm of heavenly flowers, all rushing toward Chen Fan, intent on destroying him.
