Chapter 748: Chapter 191: A Change of Plans: A Monster Emerges from the Secret Realm, and Valiant Chu Fan Slays a Great Demon with His Iron Fist

The protective barrier, formed from terrifying Pollution Power and dense Demonic Power, shattered like glass under Chu Fan’s punch—a blow imbued with killing intent!

"AWOOOO—!!!"

The Wolf King let out a wretched, piercing scream. Its massive body pitched forward, and the black mist shrouding its head finally dissipated!

Die!

Chu Fan gave it no chance to breathe, his figure clinging to it like a shadow as he closed in.

He lunged forward and ducked low. His fists became two indestructible warhammers, pounding down like a pile driver gone berserk!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

In just a few breaths, Chu Fan had landed more than a dozen furious punches, each one containing the power to shatter mountains and split stone!

Every single punch slammed viciously into the exact same spot!

Punch after punch tore into flesh. The sound of splintering bone was enough to set one’s teeth on edge...

No matter how hard the Wolf King’s skull was, or that it was shrouded in mutated Pollution Power, it ultimately couldn’t withstand this devastating chain of brutal strikes!

As the final punch landed, the Wolf King’s massive head slammed heavily into the dirt. Though it didn’t burst, its limbs twitched a few times before it fell completely silent and still.

But Chu Fan didn’t stop. He brought down another punch with all his might...

BOOM!

In the end, the Wolf King’s head was smashed to pieces...

Even the black mist, the manifestation of the terrifying Pollution Power, scattered in all directions.

The battlefield fell into a deathly silence.

A moment later, the pack of white wolves watching from a distance let out strange, terrified cries. As if they had seen a vengeful ghost, they scattered in an instant, disappearing deep into the woods.

Just then, a flash of light appeared.

The Five Elements Cauldron descended with a rumble, completely covering the Wolf King’s corpse and that section of the battlefield.

It sealed off every trace of their auras, allowing nothing to escape.

In the distance, Feng Luoyan, who had been ready to burn her blood essence to escape at a moment’s notice, stared blankly ahead. Her neck, as if rusted, turned stiffly, inch by inch. "He... he actually killed... that Wolf King?" she asked, her voice dry.

Staring at the massive cauldron, Wang Yanfeng’s voice was hoarse. "It... would seem so."

Feng Luoyan swallowed hard, her eyes filled with a dazed disbelief that made her question reality itself. "But that Wolf King clearly... possessed power on par with the Ruyi Realm... How could it..."

Wang Yanfeng remained silent and did not reply.

’You don’t understand, do you?’

’It’s only right that you don’t.’

’Because I don’t fucking understand either!’

’Not only had Chu Fan killed the Wolf King, but he’d made it look... completely effortless!’

’This completely shattered his understanding of the Martial Dao cultivation system!’

A moment later, the ancient, massive cauldron trembled once.

It then flew up, rapidly shrinking in mid-air before transforming into a streak of light that vanished into the palm of Chu Fan’s right hand.

Chu Fan stood in the center of the ravaged battlefield.

The muscles of his bare torso were sharply defined, but his expression was grim. Far from showing the joy of victory, his brows were tightly furrowed.

His right hand was trembling slightly.

’The Ten Thousand Souls Banner...’

Inside the cauldron, he had once again used that incomparably malevolent treasure to Devour the Fierce Souls of the powerful Wolf King and the other white wolves.

But after devouring them, he could already sense that the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was nearing the absolute limit of his control...

It was a high-grade Ancient Treasure that could continuously evolve. Its power was boundless, but it also concealed immense danger.

As the number of Fierce Souls and Spirits within it increased, it would grow stronger and in turn empower its master.

But such a heaven-defyingly powerful Ancient Treasure placed extremely harsh—one might even say insane—demands on its wielder’s Divine Sense strength and Primordial Qi reserves.

Chu Fan’s current Primordial Qi Cultivation was only at the Third Heaven of Divine Power Realm, nowhere near enough to completely control the ferocious power of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Back when he devoured and performed Refinement on the Zhang Family Ancestor’s Soul Division, he had needed the Shadow Guard Tang Yu and Mo Yunzi to lend him a hand just to barely suppress it and prevent it from spiraling out of control.

And now, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was over a hundred times stronger than it had been then!

Even though he kept the Spirit Array Map of the Demon Dragon Celestial Spirit Scripture active at all times, amplifying his Divine Sense strength tenfold, a sharp, stabbing pain still shot through his mind when he forcibly dragged the Wolf King’s frenzied soul into the banner.

He felt the strain, accompanied by waves of suffocating palpitations.

It was a sign of losing control—an extremely dangerous one.

His current Divine Sense strength was like that of a small child swinging a colossal hammer; he was already finding it difficult to command the increasingly terrifying Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

As for his meager Primordial Qi from the Third Heaven of Divine Power Realm, it was even more pathetic when faced with the bottomless pit that was the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

It was like trying to put out a forest fire with a cup of water—utterly useless.

But here, inside the Secret Realm, where would he find the time to increase his Cultivation?

*Hooo...*

Chu Fan let out a long, turbid breath and collected himself.

Just then, Wang Yanfeng finally snapped out of his stupor. He strode forward, his eyes scanning this "monster" up and down, and asked with a mixture of concern and reverence, "Lord Chu, are... are you injured?"

His Divine Sense quietly swept over Chu Fan’s body, and he was horrified to discover that aside from his tattered robes, there wasn’t so much as a white mark or a single bruise on Chu Fan’s bronze skin.

’Truly unimaginable...’

’With just a few simple punches, he had beaten a berserk Wolf King, an opponent comparable to the Ruyi Realm, to death.’

’He even took two hits from the Wolf King with his physical body and ended up completely unscathed!’

A storm raged in Wang Yanfeng’s heart. The way he looked at Chu Fan had completely changed.

’No wonder Prince Zhennan and the two Demon Suppression Commanders valued him so highly!’

’The man was an absolute monster!’

’To break the Zhang Family’s stratagem, they would truly have to rely on Chu Fan...’

Suddenly...

WHOOSH!

Chu Fan teleported, appearing out of thin air behind Feng Luoyan. His hand shot out like a claw, closing around her slender, white neck!

"Don’t move. Move, and I’ll snap your neck."

"..." Feng Luoyan’s entire body went rigid. It felt as if she had been plunged into an ice cellar, the chill seeping into her very bones.
