Chapter 1976 - 1841: Forced to Strike

Chapter 1976: Chapter 1841: Forced to Strike

At the Immortal Academy, the old bastard once told Ye Fan: The Divine Race has always been the guardians of the Human Race.

Every time a dark tide arises, the Divine Race always rushes to the front lines to fend off humanoid creatures, making great sacrifices for the safety of the entire Human Race.

Due to the unique constitution of the Divine Race, which happens to restrain humanoid creatures, their sacrifices are particularly significant.

Humanoid creatures fear the Divine Race, allocating a large number of top-level strong people to deal with them.

Otherwise, the resistance of the Human Race and the Demon Clan against the dark tide would be even more difficult.

For all this, Ye Fan stood from a broader perspective and faced Jiang Kuang’s fierce attacks without retaliating, choosing instead to tolerate—given that the dark tide could very well come early. They are pillars in combating humanoid creatures and the Demon Clan, and can’t perish at his hands.

"Listen to my explanation..."

Ye Fan, resembling a Flowing Light, left a series of afterimages behind him while evading Jiang Kuang’s fierce attacks and trying to clarify things.

However—

Jiang Kuang gave him no chance for explanation, determined to put him to death, his attacks ruthless and merciless.

"There’s nothing to explain, the Death Energy is proof!"

Jiang Kuang’s face was iron-blue; his attacks repeatedly avoided by Ye Fan, making him feel humiliated.

Even he was the first genius of the younger generation in the Divine Race, having reached the Peak Lord Realm in just twenty years, not inferior compared to those sons of emperors.

Moreover, the Divine Race’s innate divine abilities are exceptionally powerful; his hands can transform into True Dragon and Divine Phoenix, their attack power unparalleled.

Now he can indeed break through the Holy level barrier and slay the strong people one realm higher at the Saint Lord Level.

Yet, no matter how strong the attack power is, it’s futile if you can’t hit your opponent.

Ye Fan was like a slippery fish, making each of Jiang Kuang’s attacks fruitless.

"I not only possess Death Energy but also have vital Qi and blood!"

Ye Fan retracted the Death Energy; a stream of blood light shot from the top of his skull, piercing the sky, with his vital Qi and blood raging like a furious sea.

"Even if you have vital Qi and blood, it’s useless, having Death Energy means you’re of the Demon Clan, and today I must slay you!"

Jiang Kuang was extremely furious; his every strand of hair shimmering, his body enveloped in Divine Radiance, his Divine Power like a vast ocean, raging continuously.

"Slash!"

Jiang Kuang leapt into the air, spreading his arms like a Giant Roc, his arms transforming into Peng Wings, fiercely slashing towards Ye Fan.

"Swish!"

Golden wings like a blazing sun emitted myriad rays, indestructible, cutting the earth with a terrifying crack.

Ye Fan pushed the Chasing Star Step to the extreme, narrowly evading this fierce and unmatched strike.

His expression gradually turned serious.

Because he could see that Jiang Kuang was utterly determined to kill him, mere evasion was no solution; retaliation was necessary.

After transforming into a Giant Roc, Jiang Kuang’s speed suddenly increased a lot, almost able to match Ye Fan’s Chasing Star Step.

Heavenly Eagle Extreme Speed, wings expand across ninety thousand miles!

Jiang Kuang pushed the Giant Roc’s speed to its limit, almost neck and neck with Ye Fan. His wings chased him like a Heavenly Blade.

"Clang!"

Ye Fan found himself with no escape and had to reluctantly defend, his Purple Diamond-like fist resembling a violet sun, fiercely striking Jiang Kuang’s descending Peng Wings, producing clanging sounds.

"I’ve already said, I’m not of the Demon Clan. If you continue not knowing retreat, I will fight back."

Ye Fan shouted loudly, his voice like thunder.

"Ye, don’t you dare quibble! Why would I be afraid of you?"

Jiang Kuang attacked, his left hand like a dragon, right hand like a phoenix, seeming to push the sun and moon as he moved, terrifyingly boundless.

Ling Duyun and the others did not intervene but watched the battle from the sidelines, occasionally snickering coldly.

In their eyes, Ye Fan was undoubtedly not Jiang Kuang’s match.

After all, Jiang Kuang is a descendant of the War God, with War God blood flowing through his veins, his combat power unmatched, and his realm higher than Ye Fan.

They reasoned that the only reason Jiang Kuang had ever lost to Ye Fan years ago was because he had sealed his Cultivation, otherwise, he could have suppressed Ye Fan with one hand.

"Don’t force me!"

Ye Fan roared long, as if the Heavenly Emperor were awakening, his spirit swallowing the rivers and mountains, his hair dazzling as it danced behind him while he punched forward.

The long unused Xuandi Fist exerted terrifying power, with a punch released, its force terrifying, seemingly unstoppable.

"Boom!"

The two met, as though two pieces of firmament were collapsing, a cataclysmic aura emerged, the bodies of both burning, emitting countless rays of light.

"Ye is doomed!"

Yun Xiao’s eyes shot cold light, speaking plainly, thinking it impossible for Ye Fan to survive such a formidable attack.

Dragon and Phoenix Joint Attack!

One of Jiang Kuang’s strongest killing moves, which even some of the older strong people in his clan couldn’t resist, let alone Ye Fan.

In their view, although Ye Fan’s growth speed had surprised them.

In just a few short years, he had grown from a Holy Embryo Realm ant to such a terrifying state, almost catching up with them.

But they were never worried, as Jiang Kuang’s strength among the younger generation in the clan is matchless, except for Divine Lady Tongtong.

Prior to this, Ye Fan had been relying on his strange Step Technique, struggling to avoid frontal collisions.

This led them to wrongly assume Ye Fan was cowardly, unwilling to confront Jiang Kuang head-on.

However—

As the light faded, Ye Fan stood proudly in the void, Purple Diamond-like fist shrouded in Thunder Power, seemingly unharmed.

Whereas Jiang Kuang appeared shocked, blood dripped from his golden fist. In the fierce clash, his body couldn’t compete with Ye Fan’s, cracking his tiger’s mouth.

"Wha...what?"

"How can this be?"

Ling Duyun, Yun Xiao, and others were completely stunned, all rubbing their eyes vigorously, unable to believe what they saw.

"No... impossible! This is impossible!!"

Jiang Kuang roared, his anger making his hair stand on end.

He couldn’t believe Ye Fan was stronger than him, in his mind, this was impossible!

"I have always said, I’m not from the Demon Clan, possessing Death Energy is just a coincidence!"

Ye Fan spoke up, feeling compelled to explain, as being mistaken for a demon clan spy was not a pleasant rumor.

"Don’t try to deceive me, today I swear to kill you!"

Jiang Kuang roared, his whole body radiating brilliantly with golden light, the surge of divine power was immense, his injured hand instantly healed, left hand forming the Great Sun Seal, right hand forming the Round Moon Seal like a divine being, attacking Ye Fan once more.

The heavens and earth shattered, the void collapsed, Jiang Kuang’s left hand exuded a strand of Sun Divine Power, extremely yang and resolute, while the right hand released a force of Taiyin, slicing through the void and pressing down through eternity.

"Boom..."

Where Jiang Kuang passed, the earth split open and lava gushed forth, he truly resembled a heavenly god walking the world, terrifying beyond measure.

Ye Fan’s expression was serious, he knew that without defeating Jiang Kuang completely, leaving this ancient star was impossible.

At this moment, he remained motionless, as if petrified, his eyes shooting out two dragon-shaped Divine Lights, connecting with the Great Sun Seal and Round Moon Seal.

He was stealing the technique.

This secret technique had tremendous power, and if he could wield it, the power would double, as he possessed two completely different divine forces within him, life and death.

"Is this kid scared stiff?"

"The Sun and Moon Divine Seal! It’s even more terrifying than the Dragon and Phoenix Joint Attack, able to produce Chaotic Energy, once hit, even an early-stage Venerable Realm Saint Lord can’t withstand it, let alone him!"

Ling Duyun and others laughed heartily, feeling elated. In their view, once the Sun and Moon Divine Seal was unleashed, even if Ye Fan had extraordinary means, he was doomed to die.

Now, Jiang Kuang was less than a hundred zhang away from Ye Fan, even if he wanted to escape it was already too late, a hundred zhang distance was nothing to Jiang Kuang.

"Ye, aren’t you running? Waiting for death?"

The Bai Yan wolf exclaimed in shock, reminding him from the side.

But Ye Fan seemed oblivious, divine chains of laws flickering in his eyes.

Jiang Kuang was not fast, intentionally slowing his steps to deliberately increase the pressure on Ye Fan before his death for mental torment.

Jiang Kuang’s every step echoed like drumbeats in Ye Fan’s heart, drawing ever nearer.

He was risking it, learning the Sun and Moon Divine Seal before Jiang Kuang’s attack, then using the Ten Thousand Transformation Saint Technique to evolve it, turning it into his own secret technique.

Ninety zhang, eighty zhang, seventy zhang...

It was close, Ye Fan was about to unravel the mysteries of the Sun and Moon Divine Seal, the chains of law in his eyes continually flickering.

Jiang Kuang approached!

The Great Sun Seal and Round Moon Seal transformed into real sun and moon, crashing towards Ye Fan, their intense light completely engulfing him.

An apocalyptic aura spread out, within a range of several thousand miles, all mountain tops were flattened, even the ring-shaped mountain where Ye Fan had appeared disappeared, the altar buried deep beneath rubble.

"Suppress!"

Amongst the destructive aura came a roar from Ye Fan, the Divine Soul Resonance Heavenly Sound echoed for a thousand miles, causing Jiang Kuang’s ears to ring, his blood churned, feeling suffocated in his chest.

Swoosh!

Immediately afterwards, Ye Fan shot out both fists, left hand unleashing the Heavenly Demon Fist, beams of death piercing through heaven and earth, right hand unleashing the Xuandi Fist, penetrating the heavens across time, like a god demon, charging out from the destruction’s epicenter.

At this moment, his clothes were in tatters, the exposed skin gleaming with crystalline light, surprisingly unscathed.

"This kid is really a tough one, he’s got such a hard life."

The Bai Yan wolf gaped incredulously, muttering a few unbelievable words.

"What?"

"He’s not dead yet?"

"He actually... actually wasn’t hurt?"

Ling Duyun and the others were completely dumbfounded, looking at Ye Fan rushing out from the destruction’s center as if they’d seen a ghost.

"I don’t believe I can’t kill you!"

Deploying numerous killing moves and still unable to deal with Ye Fan, Jiang Kuang’s rage reached its peak, he decisively burned his divine power, causing his momentum to surge instantly, combat power soaring.

At this moment, Jiang Kuang could absolutely contend with Saint Lord level strong people, his whole body akin to burning flames, emanating fearsome aura.

"Kill!"

His War God Bloodline boiled, war intent filled the sky, one punch pierced through heaven and earth.

"Good timing!"

Ye Fan roared mightily, neither dodging nor evading, launching the Xuandi Fist, his divine power as vast as the ocean, sweeping the high heavens, meeting Jiang Kuang head-on.

"Boom!"

The two collided, like two stars crashing into each other, explosive radiance erupting, a destructive aura spreading out, the void collapsing into a terrifying black hole, generating immense suction, drawing in all nearby rubble into an unknown space.

"Bang!"

Jiang Kuang was thrown back into the air, spitting blood, his face turned pale, divine power in chaos within, blood and energy in disarray.

Ye Fan was also knocked back but fared much better, at least not spitting blood, his gaze icy cold.

"Kill him, we must kill him, everyone attack together!"

Jiang Kuang was both shocked and furious, quickly taking out a jade bottle, pouring its contents into his mouth wildly. A captivating fragrance emanated, it was top-level Divine Spring, capable of swiftly restoring exhausted divine power and healing.

After consuming the Divine Spring, Jiang Kuang’s wounds instantly healed, his eyes shooting out two golden lights, joining Ling Duyun and the others in besieging Ye Fan and the Bai Yan wolf!
