Chapter 747 - Annihilated with One Move

The enormous golden palm blotted out the sky and sun, descending like an ancient god’s hand, crushing everything beneath it.

Heaven and earth shook, the stars fell, mountains and rivers shattered. The palm could seemingly end all life.

Rumble!

The enormous palm smashed down, shattering space and collapsing a vast area of air as if overturning the sky itself. The earth cracked and twisted, creating a shocking sight, as the lands and mountains trembled.

Silence fell over heaven and earth, with only the faint echoes of tremors lingering.

The palm had seemingly obliterated everyone from the Spring Autumn Sect, leaving no survivors.

Feng Baiyu’s mournful roar came from above the nine heavens, blood-red tears streaming down his cheeks. “No!”

Boom, tch!

That blood demon commander seized the opportunity and struck Feng Baiyu with a palm strike, breaking his tendons and bones. Loud booms rang out repeatedly from inside him.

“Hahahaha, I wonder which expert of the holy cult has come. Please show yourself,” said the blood demon commander laughing, though even he felt a tremor of fear in the face of such an earth-shattering strike. Everything in its path lay destroyed.

Boom!

Gradually, the enormous golden palm dissipated, and the blood demon commander’s laughter froze in his throat.

Below, the Spring Autumn Sect’s people—supposedly dead—were alive and kicking. Instead, every blood demon under the golden palm had been crushed into a paste, their souls scattered to the winds.

This turn of events left Feng Baiyu and the others astounded.

The people on the Spring Autumn Sect’s side broke out into a clamor.

“Haha, I’m alive, I’m alive!”

They had been certain that they would perish beneath the enormous palm, but it seemed fate had other plans.

“Really? I’m still alive—hahaha!”

“What’s going on? Where are we? Is this hell?”

“That palm earlier wasn’t trying to kill us but save us?”

“......”

Everyone was touching and pinching themselves, some even pinching their companions hard, as they struggled to grasp their sudden good fortune.

Chen Zhengqing and Nangong Yue also looked puzzled.

Moments earlier, they had braced for death at the hands of an eighth-level Core Formation blood demon, but the golden palm had saved them, smashing the blood demon into a paste instead.

Happiness arrived so unexpectedly!

Feng Baiyu and the others felt their rage dissolve into joy.

“I don’t know which senior intervened to save us, but please—strike once more and wipe out these blood demons!” Feng Baiyu cupped his fists and bowed toward the void. “On behalf of our Spring Autumn Sect, I thank you for your immense grace.”

Wei Buyu, High Elder Yun Tu, and the others also cupped their fists one after another.

“We humbly ask this senior to please take action!”

In stark contrast, the blood demons’ faces darkened. The third-level Divine Nascent realm blood demon commander’s face turned grave. He had assumed the mysterious figure was an ally. Now, he realized that wasn’t the case.

A figure arrived at the Spring Autumn Sect’s side, crossing an immense distance instantly, as though the earth itself had shrunk beneath his feet.

Swish!

“Sect Leader, Master, it’s been five years. I trust you have been well since our last meeting!”

This figure was naturally Chen Fan.

“Chen Fan, it’s you!”

Feng Baiyu, Wei Buyu, and the others were momentarily stunned before their faces lit up with elation.

“It’s me.” Chen Fan nodded with a smile. His gaze fell on Chen Zhengqing and Nangong Yue, and he said, “Father, Mother, I’m back!”

“Xiaofan! Is that you? Is it really you?” Nangong Yue looked at Chen Fan, who stood resolutely in the void as if she were dreaming.

The person who had saved them was her son, Chen Fan!

“Mother, it’s me. I’m back.”

Chen Fan looked at his parents, a fierce glint flashing across his eyes.

The realization that he had nearly been too late ignited a dangerous fury within him.

These blood demons deserved a thousand deaths for their sins!

His cold gaze fell on the blood demon commander. His voice, heavy with killing intent, echoed through the air as he said, “You bunch of worms who are neither human nor demon... you’ve outworn my patience. It seems you didn’t learn your lesson five years ago. This time, I’ll uproot you completely and make you regret ever coming into this world!”

The blood demon commander sneered coldly, “So, you’re Chen Fan—the one who disrupted our plans and made us suffer heavy losses? How arrogant of you to speak of destroying the Blood Demon Cave! ‘Naïve’ doesn’t begin to describe you.”

Chen Fan’s aura felt extremely dangerous, and the blood demon commander couldn’t see through his cultivation level, but the Blood Demon Cave had swept through the Hong Domain with great momentum. With the awakening of the remaining three guardians and eight kings, the Blood Demon Cave would return to its former glory.

“The ignorant really are fearless.” Chen Fan shook his head, looking at the blood demon commander and the others like he was looking at a bunch of dead men.

There was a time when Divine Nascent realm experts were high and mighty existences in his eyes; now, they were ants. He could kill them by just exhaling a bit harder.

Chen Fan reached out with his hand, grabbing the primeval qi of heaven and earth within fifty thousand kilometers. It turned into a spiritual rain that rained down on Feng Baiyu and the others.

It seemed like they were withered trees springing back to life. Their injuries recovered almost immediately, and their auras surged higher than before. For example, a peak-stage first-level Divine Nascent realm like the High Elder advanced to the second-level Divine Nascent realm.

Such miraculous methods were beyond belief.

The blessing didn’t stop with Feng Baiyu and the others. The crowd below also experienced a surge in power as wounds healed and cultivations advanced by leaps.

“Sect Leader, Master, you should all rest at the side. Just leave these demonic beings to me.” Chen Fan’s calm tone dismissed the blood demon army entirely.

With a flick of his finger, a streak of Green Lotus Sword Qi burst forth, ripping through heaven and earth toward the blood demon commander.

The sword qi made the sky darken, and the world seemed to dissolve into it.

How could the third-level Divine Nascent realm blood demon expert even react in the face of such an unparalleled attack?

𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

He just... died.

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

The streak of Green Lotus Sword Qi moved faster than lightning as it killed blood demon powerhouses one after another. It moved like a skewer pushing through a bunch of tender meat chunks. Wherever the skewer of light went, a Divine Nascent realm expert died; even their nascent soul couldn’t escape.

Yet, this wasn’t the end.

Killing fifteen Divine Nascent realm powerhouses did not deplete the Green Lotus Sword Qi. It darted toward its next victim: the blood demon army.

In sixty seconds, the blood demon powerhouses were dead and so were the soldiers behind them.
