Chapter 842 - Suppressed and Beaten

One move and a half-step Manifestation realm expert was dead. The entire area fell silent.

Although the second demon general wasn’t among the strongest of his level, he was still a half-step Manifestation realm expert. He had a trace of the Manifestation realm power and was close to reaching the Manifestation realm.

Given time, he could have ascended to become a demon king or demon lord.

Yet, Chen Fan first flung him aside like trash, then killed him with one effortless attack—leaving him no chance to resist. This gave the crowd a shock.

Had half-step Manifestation realm experts always been this weak?

No. It was just that Chen Fan was too powerful. He had reached a level where ordinary half-step Manifestation realm experts were no match for him.

Demon King Huyan’s entourage stood frozen, blankly staring at the scene. None of them had anticipated this outcome.

How could they have even expected that on this particular trip to the Xuan Ting Demonic Island, their second demon general would be killed instantly?

In the past, their visits to Xuan Ting Demonic Island were always predictable—they would provoke, spar, and heavily injure or even kill the Xuan Ting Demon Sect’s demon generals.

Never before had one of their own been slain, especially in a three-on-one match. That one of their generals was instantly killed only deepened their disbelief.

When Chen Fan had volunteered to handle the first battle, many labeled him a coward. They thought that he was just trying to save his own hide by fighting the weakest. Now, however, it was clear: Chen Fan was outright disregarding the Huyan Demon Sect’s demon generals.

The Huyan Demon Sect’s first demon general roared furiously, “Ah, damn it! Damn it!”

It wasn’t grief that fueled his rage—he felt no sorrow for the fallen. Instead, it was the humiliation. The fact that the second demon general had been killed in a three-on-one scenario, and with just a single move, was a merciless slap in his face.

“You damned bastard, how dare you kill him. You’re asking to die. You deserve a thousand deaths!”

Demonic primeval erupted from the first demon general as he came charging, carrying an incomparably terrifying aura.

He was a burly guy, so when he charged toward Chen Fan so quickly, the air around his frame exploded, producing crackling noises.

Streams of terrifying aura swept out, generating ripples in the air like water. It was unusually terrifying.

As a half-step Manifestation expert, he was just one step from entering the Manifestation realm. His full-strength strike carried unmatched power.

Furthermore, the first demon general was at least twice as strong as the second demon general and was a touch stronger than Tu Shan. No wonder the Xuan Ting Demon Sect often lost against them.

His palm strike descended like a collapsing mountain, unleashing enough force to shatter space. He held nothing back.

Rumble!

The palm strike arrived in front of Chen Fan like the Buddha Tathagata’s Five Finger Mountain, pressing down as violent air currents roared around Chen Fan.

Chen Fan, calm and composed, countered with his own palm strike.

The clash was like two stars colliding, unleashing a force that swept out in violent tides.

Huyan Jun also suddenly rushed in front of Chen Fan, icy killing intent emitting from him, his expression savage.

His aura was twice as powerful as the first demon general. He was truly infinitely close to a Manifestation realm expert.

“Bastard, die for me!”

Killing intent blossomed violently in Huyan Jun’s eyes. The timing of his attack was extremely tricky, precisely when he believed Chen Fan was vulnerable after clashing with the first demon general.

But he was gravely mistaken.

Chen Fan was not spent at all. In an instant, the Heaven Piercing Spear stabbed out violently, tearing through space.

Boom, boom, boom...

Huyan Jun’s attack was torn apart in an instant.

A tidal wave of power surged forward, forcing Huyan Jun’s expression to twist in shock. He never expected Chen Fan to respond with such speed and ferocity.

Rumble!

This attack was like a flood dragon ascending to heaven. The remaining force struck Huyan Jun, causing his protective true primeval to explode as he was knocked back.

“Heavens, how is this possible? How could he be so strong?”

The crowd watched in disbelief as Chen Fan repelled both Huyan Jun and the Huyan Demon Sect’s first demon general with overwhelming might.

That was especially true for those from the Huyan Demon Sect. They felt as if their souls were trembling.

They understood well the strength of Huyan Jun and the first demon general. In the entire Huyan Demon Sect, aside from the demon king and the demon lords, they were destined to step into the Manifestation realm within a decade and become demon lord-level geniuses.

Yet, here they were, utterly defeated by Chen Fan.

Even the people on the Xuan Ting Demon Sect’s side were also very shocked. Tu Shan, Jin Xingzi, and the others’ eyeballs were trembling violently.

Too powerful.

Chen Fan was simply too powerful.

Tu Shan, especially, felt it the most deeply, having fought Chen Fan not long ago. Although he lost, he firmly believed that he was not much weaker than Chen Fan. Now, the realization nearly gave him a heart attack.

If he were to fight Chen Fan now, he wouldn’t last more than thirty moves.

How is this possible? How could his strength skyrocket by this much and this fast!

Tu Shan was shocked beyond words.

“So strong.” Princess Xuan Shitong’s heart trembled.

She knew Chen Fan was very strong, but his rapid improvement was still astonishing—he had grown by leaps and bounds in such a short time.

Countless gazes were frozen, shaken to the core.

“Kill!” Huyan Jun and the first demon general charged forward once more.

They no longer cared that they were ganging up on someone. Their eyes were filled with chilling killing intent. Someone like Chen Fan had to be killed, or he would become a huge threat in the future.

The primeval qi in the air surged wildly as they unleashed their full power.

Huyan Jun had a halberd in hand, drawing out terrifying arcs as if he would split heaven and earth apart, stabbing at Chen Fan.

Meanwhile, the first demon general’s demonic ax descended like an iron mountain, the space trembling under its weight.

Chen Fan snorted coldly. His qi and blood erupted in a torrent, forming a qi pillar that shot into the sky, sweeping across the battlefield as he surged forward.

Facing the two’s attacks, he showed no signs of fear on his face—instead, a spark of excitement flickered in his eyes. Together, these two were formidable enough to rival a first-level Manifestation expert who had cultivated for years.

Boom, boom!

Chen Fan thrust the Heaven Piercing Spear twice in rapid succession, his speed so blinding that only demon kings and lords could follow it.

The entire space instantly exploded. The core area turned into primal chaos.

Terrifying qi currents stormed out in all directions, sending waves of shock through the surrounding crowd. Those below the Manifestation realm turned pale, their expressions grim.

However, Demon King Xuan Ting immediately took action. A powerful demonic might erupted from him. With a wave of his arm, the aftermath that was surging like the tide dissipated, displaying his immense strength.
