Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1603 - Demon Emerges

Scared out of their minds!

Every single person was seized by fear.

In the blink of an eye, the orderly gathering dissolved into chaos. Cultivators scattered in all directions, fleeing with everything they had.

Chen Fan was also among them. While he could escape an Immortal King’s pursuit, facing the Heaven-Shaking Hou was a different matter entirely. Against such an existence, ten lives would not be enough.

Fortunately, he was swift; even without activating his Wings of Rain Dragon, he was faster than most people. As long as others remained behind him, the Heaven-Shaking Hou would not target him immediately.

Moreover, the Wings of Rain Dragon were far too conspicuous. Even in this desperate flight, Chen Fan was sure that the Immortal King of the deep-sea giant shark tribe would seize any chance to eliminate him if they discovered his identity.

They wouldn’t need to take action themselves. They only needed to toss him towards the pursuing Heaven-Shaking Hou.

So, Chen Fan didn’t dare to reveal the Wings of Rain Dragon.

Thunderous rumbling echoed behind him as a group rapidly closed in. From the corner of his eye, Chen Fan recognized the experts of the Star Origin Sect.

Their chariots streaked across the sky, leaving pronounced traces in their wake. Although huge, the chariots were incredibly fast. They surged forward from the rear, steadily overtaking the fleeing crowd.

Qi Dong spotted Chen Fan from his bronze chariot and immediately recognized him. Even though Chen Fan had withdrawn his aura, he didn’t disguise himself. Thus, he was easy to spot.

Neither side slowed down. In the midst of this desperate escape, there was no time for words. They merely exchanged a brief nod before separating, as the Star Origin Sect’s chariots shot past the crowd and raced toward the front.

Behind, the Heaven-Shaking Hou continued to close in. Each time it approached, cultivators vanished into its grasp. Immortal Kings and Immortal Platform experts alike were seized and devoured in batches.

Chen Fan sensed that the Heaven-Shaking Hou seemed to be recovering. As it devoured experts, its vitality grew increasingly vigorous. The emperor-level pressure emanating from it grew heavier, and its speed increased. The beast was clearly regaining its strength after awakening from its long slumber.

Just as it drew near once again, heaven and earth suddenly began to tremble violently.

Someone outside is moving the Demon Suppression Tower!

The thought flashed through everyone’s minds.

The Heaven-Shaking Hou was about to catch up to the crowd, but it suddenly stopped its pursuit. Then, it let out a furious roar to the sky. Its eyes burned crimson as it rose into the air, each step causing space itself to quake.

An incredibly savage laughter came from outside. “Hahahaha, after keeping me suppressed for so many years, I’ll take this Demon Suppression Tower as compensation!”

The voice struck like a heavy club, smashing into everyone’s hearts and stripping them of the will to resist.

Next, the countless experts fell from the sky as though dumplings dropped into boiling water. The voice carried no overt hostility, yet its casual tone drained all strength from those who heard it.

Everyone was powerless now. This was cultivation beyond comprehension. Every word seemed to carry heavenly authority, forcing reality itself to comply.

The implications sent panic rippling through the crowd.

Suppressed?

Could he be that great demon suppressed under the Demon Suppression Tower?

Hiss, hiss!

He actually escaped!

A demon that had survived hundreds of thousands of years, once sealed by ancient powers, was beyond anything they could imagine. If such an existence emerged, the entire Chaotic Demon Sea would face annihilation.

“Roar!”

The Heaven-Shaking Hou let out a roar in response. Terrifying divine light instantly boiled like water, causing countless indigenous lifeforms across the entire sixth level to explode. Streams of crimson surged together, forming rivers that poured into the Heaven-Shaking Hou.

Aside from the sixth level, the demons on the other levels also exploded and turned into rivers of vitality before surging into the Heaven-Shaking Hou.

The light surrounding the Heaven-Shaking Hou intensified, its aura skyrocketing. Under the stunned gazes of the crowd, it vanished into the distant horizon.

Immediately afterward, the entire Demon Suppression Tower began shaking violently again. From outside came the Heaven-Shaking Hou’s furious roars, intertwined with the great demon’s unrestrained laughter.

The crowd shivered all over.

The entire sixth level was cleared instantly. Countless ferocious beasts were reduced to blood mists and absorbed, as if they had been livestock prepared long ago for harvest.

The situation in the lower levels was the same.

Although the Heaven-Shaking Hou had already left at this point, no one dared think about advancing to the seventh level.

All of their greed was suppressed. No one dared to provoke the Heaven-Shaking Hou.

There was no doubt that it was an emperor-level ferocious beast.

Everyone seized this opportunity to flee. The Demon Suppression Tower was no longer safe.

Meanwhile, violent noises continued to echo from outside, and the entire Demon Suppression Tower also shook violently, as if it could collapse any second. Cultivators with relatively lower cultivation bled from their seven orifices and died from the tremor.

“Damn it, you beast, you’re only an artifact spirit. How dare you oppose me! If you had surrendered obediently, I could’ve kept you after claiming the Demon Suppression Tower. But now, I shall annihilate you!”

The peerless demon’s cold voice entered from outside, stunning everyone inside the Demon Suppression Tower.

Artifact spirit?!

That Heaven-Shaking Hou was actually the Demon Suppression Tower’s artifact spirit!

An artifact spirit actually possessed the power of an emperor. The crowd couldn’t imagine just how mighty the Demon Suppression Tower was.

Rumble!

Rumble!

The entire Demon Suppression Tower continued shaking violently. Since the demons below had already turned into nourishment for the Heaven-Shaking Hou, the crowd descended the tower with ease.

They moved quickly. Despite the vast space within the tower, they reached the first level in short order and surged toward the exit like a raging flood.

Those who emerged first were instantly reduced to blood mist by a terrifying force outside. Among them were Immortal Kings.

The sight froze everyone in place. Terror gripped them completely.
