Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1598 - Renowned on the Sixth Level

Boom!

Jing Kai’s saber carved through the heavens in a single, ruthless stroke. The horrifying blade radiance arrived before Chen Fan, carrying an illusion that it could sever all immortals in its path.

Clang!

Chen Fan remained calm and collected. With a flick of his wrist, he drew an arc with the demonic sword, sending a streak of sword qi colliding with the oncoming saber light. The collision detonated instantly, birthing a towering shockwave of qi.

Both figures were forced backward by the impact, yet they stepped in again without hesitation, unleashing one lethal move after another.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Woo, woo, woo.

Saber lights and sword silhouettes interweaved in the air, flashing, causing the crowd in the vicinity to tremble with shock.

Jing Kai hardly needed an introduction. He was already a famed young master of the Chaotic Demon Sea Region. His reputation alone spoke volumes, and his rare public appearances only added to his mystique.

Chen Fan, by contrast, had been a nobody. He had first gained public attention for ripping off Shark Crown Prince at the Sunny Day’s auction; still, he had left barely a ripple in most people’s minds.

But now, watching him cross blows with Jing Kai on equal footing, the onlookers couldn’t help but question if this was real.

Chen Fan was actually this powerful?!

Boom, boom!

The two of them were like stars, fiercely colliding into each other. Storms erupted, and divine light shot out in all directions, destroying everything within fifty kilometers instantly.

The world around them became a wasteland.

“I told you, even if we’re comparing the size of our fists, you won’t be a match for me. Don’t force me to get serious. Otherwise, you’ll only be asking for humiliation.” Chen Fan sneered coldly as he clenched his left fist and drove it forward.

The surrounding space shuddered violently. Boundless starry might surged forth, spreading out like a vast, star-filled cosmos.

“What arrogance!”

Chen Fan’s words infuriated Jing Kai.

What did he mean by “getting serious?”

Had everything up to now merely been a warm-up?

“Demon God Slaying Slash!”

Jing Kai emitted overwhelming demonic will and law power, entangling and condensing together. His demonic saber blazed with terrifying divine brilliance as he unleashed eighty-one consecutive cuts, each saber light so dreadful it seemed capable of slaying gods and spirits alike.

Chen Fan took a deep breath. A fierce look flashed in his eyes, filled with killing intent, as he said, “Since you’re asking to be humiliated, I shall grant your wish. What a pity. Today, the Chaotic Demon Sea Region will lose another young master-level figure.”

Before his voice fell, Chen Fan swung his sword in a sweeping horizontal slash.

Sacred Spirit Sword Art!

As an emperor-tier immortal art, the Sacred Spirit Sword Art was one of Chen Fan’s hidden cards. Its execution demanded an enormous expenditure of energy.

However, as Chen Fan’s cultivation rose, his law power also grew increasingly robust. Employing this technique no longer felt as overwhelmingly draining as it once had.

The world dimmed instantly as he executed the strike, as though all light had been stolen from heaven and earth, leaving only pitch darkness behind.

Within that darkness, a ray of light suddenly shone.

Sword light.

The ray of sword light destroyed everything, wiping out all eighty-one of Jing Kai’s saber lights in the blink of an eye. Its momentum did not falter in the slightest as it slashed down upon Jing Kai.

Puchi!

Fresh blood spurted in the air.

Jing Kai flew backward, spewing blood along the way. His chest armor shattered, revealing a broken inner cuirass and a frighteningly deep wound that laid his bone bare.

“Uagh!”

The strike had sent Jing Kai flying five thousand kilometers back. As he stood back up, he quivered as he stared at Chen Fan in disbelief.

One strike.

With just one strike, Chen Fan had broken through his immortal art, shattered his inner armor, and heavily injured him.

Thinking of that attack now made his soul tremble. If not for his armor, that attack would’ve sent him to the underworld.

How was that possible?

What sword art was that?

Jing Kai stared at Chen Fan viciously and said, “Just you wait!”

That one exchange had left him seriously injured, robbing him of any ability to contend with Chen Fan further. If he stubbornly continued the battle, there would be only one outcome: death.

Immediately, he turned into a stream of light and shot into the distance, clearly unwilling to linger a moment longer.

Chen Fan didn’t give chase. After executing that attack, faint pallor crept across his features.

He had already reached the fifth-level Immortal Platform realm and possessed law power comparable to a seventh- or eighth-level Immortal Platform realm expert, but that attack had drained more than half of his law power.

Its destructive power was evident, however. Chen Fan turned around and strode forth, disappearing into the horizon.

The nearby martial artists exchanged glances. It ended just like that?

No one had anticipated things to end up this way.

Chen Fan had heavily injured the renowned and fearsome Young Master Whale, Jing Kai, in one strike, forcing him to flee in panic in the end.

“How truly unexpected. Young Master Whale is actually no match for Chen Fan. Tsk tsk.”

“Is he really that much stronger than Jing Kai? Doesn’t that mean Chen Fan possesses combat strength on par with an eighth-level Immortal Platform realm expert?”

“I doubt he’s quite that strong. To me, that last strike was simply too monstrous. It’s at least a king-tier immortal art, one of the top ones at that. But did you see how pale he looked afterward? The cost must be enormous. That’s why he didn’t chase him down.”

“Haaa, no matter what, Chen Fan defeated Jing Kai, a seventh-level Immortal Platform realm, while being in the fifth-level himself. He’s definitely not to be underestimated and is worthy of being viewed as equal to the young master-level figures. How truly terrifying.”

Before long, news of Chen Fan driving off Young Master Whale spread swiftly among the cultivators across the sixth level.

Many had personally witnessed the battle. Since it involved a famed young master-tier figure like Young Master Whale, the story naturally exploded like wildfire.

The outcome left martial artists of all races in disbelief, especially the human ones. They were frozen in shock.

Some people exclaimed that after Young Master Hai Long and Qi Dong, another peerless young expert from the humans was about to rise to prominence.

On the third day after the news spread, several powerful auras suddenly swept out from the entrance of the sixth level. Their sheer intensity made countless souls tremble, and the murderous intent they carried was so overpowering that the sky itself seemed to change color.

“Heavens, it’s the deep-sea giant shark tribe. What terrifying killing intent.”

Some people recognized them, and their eyes narrowed gravely.

The leading peak Immortal Platform realm expert from the deep-sea giant shark tribe let out a deep, terrifying roar the moment he entered the sixth level. The roar swept across hundreds of thousands of kilometers, causing mountains to crumble in its wake.

“Chen Fan, you brat, come out and face your death!”

Overwhelming killing intent swept out from this elder. Even from hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, countless people felt their scalps go numb and their souls quake.

What deep hatred could make a peak Immortal Platform realm expert let out such a furious roar?

While everyone was still guessing what grudge Chen Fan had incurred with the deep-sea giant shark clan, another explosive piece of news tore through the sixth level.

Shark Crown Prince had fallen to Chen Fan.

As soon as the news spread, it triggered a massive storm.

If the story of Chen Fan forcing Jing Kai to flee had already carved his name into the sixth level, then the news of him slaying the Shark Crown Prince was nothing short of an earthquake.

Everyone was stunned!
