Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1592 - Qi Dong’s Shock

“Did I return to... the primitive era?”

Chen Fan was slightly shaken inside at the sight.

Before him stretched a landscape that seemed torn straight from the ancient myths—an archaic wilderness retold in legends since time immemorial. A vast, untamed aura surged in all directions.

However, Chen Fan knew this couldn’t be a world from the primitive era.

That age had been closest to the dawn of creation and had perished countless years ago. It was impossible for that world to still remain intact.

So, only one possibility remained.

“This is the primitive era manifested by the Demon Suppression Tower itself!”

Light flickered in Chen Fan’s eyes.

It wasn’t easy for any artifact to manifest a world.

Only sage-grade artifacts that could withstand the power of the Great Dao had a slim possibility of doing so.

The Wheel of Myriad Laws in his possession had once been a hundred-pattern sage artifact and could manifest an internal space. Even so, that space was worlds apart from a true, self-contained world.

Even a thousand-pattern or ten-thousand-pattern sage artifact would struggle to achieve such a thing.

“Could this Demon Suppression Tower truly be a god artifact?”

Chen Fan’s eyes flashed brilliantly.

Rumors said that the Demon Suppression Tower was a God’s artifact, but not all Gods possessed a god-grade artifact.

Regardless of the truth, one thing was certain: the Demon Suppression Tower was far superior to the Wheel of Myriad Laws.

Chen Fan strode into an unknown, primordial world where enormous creatures roamed everywhere.

Of course, it was still far from comparable to the real primitive era. Though the beasts were enormous and fierce, their cultivation remained within the immortal realm. Not a single one had reached the Immortal King realm.

“Scree!”

A deafening cry resounded. Next, a rumbling similar to an aircraft landing rang out, and a giant figure swooped down on Chen Fan.

It was a strange bird he had never seen before, wreathed in blazing flames. With claws extended and a shrill cry, it dove straight at him.

Chen Fan let out a cold snort, turned around calmly, and threw a punch.

Boom!

The strange flaming bird was only in the sixth-level Immortal Platform realm and was no match for Chen Fan at all. The punch sent it flying back, and its claws exploded on the spot from the impact.

The bird clearly hadn’t expected such terrifying power from its target. Fear surged through it instantly.

Immediately, it exhaled flames that took the form of a column, as if to burn heaven and earth.

Chen Fan extended a large hand, grasped the oncoming flames in its palm, and molded them into a fireball, then hurled it back at the strange, flaming bird.

Bang!

“Scree!” The bird shrieked in agony as it was blasted away. The flames coating it scattered wildly, and it was obvious it had suffered serious injuries.

Realizing the gap between them, the flaming bird did not dare continue the fight. It transformed into a streak of fiery light and fled at full speed.

Chen Fan immediately gave chase.

However, before he could catch up, a handful of human experts appeared ahead, led by none other than Qi Dong.

Qi Dong attacked the moment it saw the strange bird. He unleashed countless qi blades and drove the bird into a corner, nearly forcing it to flee back. Had Chen Fan not been chasing from behind, it might have already turned back and fled the other way.

Qi Dong’s cultivation had also broken through to the seventh-level Immortal Platform realm, his strength on par with Shark Crown Prince. The strange flaming bird was no match for Qi Dong either.

The bird screamed pitifully, desperately searching for a way out. Qi Dong showed no mercy. With a wave of his hand, a qi barrier descended, sealing the bird within.

He went up unhurriedly and said, “Submit to me, or die?”

Qi Dong knew that this strange flaming bird had long since gained spiritual wisdom. At the very least, it understood such a basic choice.

This strange flaming bird was very rare. Outside the tower, it could dominate an entire region. Capturing such a beast as a demon pet would be extraordinarily difficult.

Most importantly, this strange flaming bird was young and possessed immense potential. It could reach the Immortal King realm.

Faced with the threat, the bird lowered its head and let out a mournful cry, signaling submission.

Seeing the flaming bird give in, Qi Dong lit up with joy and hurriedly signed a demon pet contract with it.

For him, gaining the loyalty of the flaming bird was akin to acquiring a powerful ally.

Qi Dong suddenly shouted, “Who is it?”

His gaze immediately turned sharp like a sword, piercing through the void and looking in Chen Fan’s direction.

Chen Fan had no intention of hiding and directly walked out.

“So it’s Brother Chen.”

Qi Dong sighed in relief upon realizing that it was Chen Fan.

No matter what, they had fought side by side and could be considered friends. It was much better than encountering the sea tribes.

“Long time no see, Brother Qi.” Chen Fan greeted him with a smile. “It seems like Brother Qi is doing as well as ever and has progressed a step further. Congratulations.”

“From what I see, Brother Chen is the one doing better than ever.” Qi Dong smiled but quickly warned him, “But I heard that the deep-sea giant shark tribe’s people have gone down to look for you. It seems that you missed them, but you have to be careful in the future.”

“I met them.” Chen Fan smiled.

“Oh? So, you managed to retreat in one piece from them? Impressive indeed. Shark Crown Prince’s strength surged after his breakthrough. And once he activates his bloodline, he’s nearly comparable to an eighth-level Immortal Platform cultivator. Escaping from him unharmed is no small feat.”

Qi Dong’s face was covered in shock.

He knew the Shark Crown Prince had brought many people down to stir up trouble with Chen Fan this time. Surviving such an encounter was already astonishing.

“Retreat? No, I killed them all,” Chen Fan said, as if recounting an insignificant matter.

“What!” Qi Dong’s eyes widened as if they might burst from their sockets. His mind went completely blank.

Shark Crown Prince has died?

How was that possible?

Although he didn’t get along with Shark Crown Prince, he understood the latter’s strength well.

Moreover, once Shark Crown Prince activated his bloodline power, even Qi Dong himself might not necessarily be a match for the prince. Yet Chen Fan had slaughtered him. This was like a bolt from the blue.
