Chapter 753: Chapter 192: Lu Mountain Kanglong Dominance

"Go!" Princess Zhaohua was exceptionally decisive. Gritting her teeth, she gave the order and turned to retreat with her people.

Chu Fan slowly raised his head, his gaze as sharp as a blade, locking onto Zhang Tianyu in midair. He took a single step forward!

"Interesting."

Zhang Tianyu looked down from on high, his eyes bloodshot. His voice held a chilling mix of calm and madness. "Your power... is truly bizarre."

"Call you a Body Cultivator, yet your Martial Arts Realm is at the Third Heaven of the Divine Power Realm;"

"Call you a Martial Artist, and while you’re clearly only at the Third Heaven of the Divine Power Realm, your Divine Sense is stronger than that of even a peak Bright Heart Realm expert."

"A triple cultivator? I’ve never heard of such a foolishly greedy cultivation path."

Before the words had even faded, Zhang Tianyu’s figure vanished from midair!

"Watch out!"

The next instant, he appeared several hundred feet away, cutting off the escape route for Princess Zhaohua and her retinue.

This time, the longsword in his hand was finally drawn!

"Trying to leave? Have you asked my sword?"

SHIIING—!

A terrifying beam of sword light, like a black river flowing through the heavens, descended from the void with an aura of utter destruction!

"This pressure... How can it be this strong!"

The color drained from Princess Zhaohua’s face. Before the beam of light even struck, countless fissures had already spiderwebbed across the ground.

Not daring to hold back, she let out a sharp cry. Forming a sword with her fingers, she pointed toward the heavens.

WHOOSH!

A small, multicolored flag flew from her sleeve. It swelled in the wind, transforming into the "Seven-Colored Cloud Realm Banner," now the size of an acre. Layers of prismatic light formed a barrier above them.

BOOM!

The black river of light smashed down upon the prismatic radiance.

For an instant, it seemed as if all sound between heaven and earth had vanished, only to be followed by a deafening roar.

"Pfft!"

Even with a great treasure from Prince Zhennan’s Mansion protecting her, the terrifying rebound force still pierced through her defenses.

Princess Zhaohua’s delicate frame trembled. She sprayed a mouthful of blood, her face turning ashen pale.

"Zhang Tianyu! I’m your opponent!"

A furious roar cracked like thunder.

Chu Fan executed "Stepping on Gang and Treading on the Dipper," his figure moving like a bolt of lightning as he forced his way into the battlefield from the side.

"You coward! Your sister, Zhang Ling’er, died by my hand! And I even performed Refinement on the Soul Division of your Zhang Family Ancestor!"

As Chu Fan sprinted, he taunted him, "What’s the matter? You only know how to bully women now? Don’t you dare come down and fight me?"

"What did you say?!"

The words were like the sharpest poisoned barb, striking precisely at the heart of Zhang Tianyu’s already unstable Heart Demon.

The blood-red light in his eyes flared. He whipped his head around, his gaze fixed on Chu Fan, his killing intent boiling over!

"You’re courting death!"

He thrust his left hand toward Chu Fan and made a grasping motion in the air.

BOOM!

An endless black miasma condensed, and a pitch-black Ghost Hand the size of a house materialized from nothing. Accompanied by the mournful wails of ghosts and howls of wolves, it squeezed viciously toward Chu Fan!

To be caught by this hand would mean being crushed into paste, even if one were made of solid steel.

Chu Fan remained calm. His footwork shifted as he pushed the "Ghost Shadow Illusionary Body Step" to its absolute limit. His form blurred into a residual image, and in the nick of time, he slipped through the gaps between the demonic fingers!

But was that the extent of Zhang Tianyu’s Killing Move?

"Slash!"

He had dodged the Ghost Hand, but he couldn’t dodge the sword strike that came with it.

A beam of black sword light—more condensed and terrifying than the one he had unleashed on the Princess—was instantly upon Chu Fan’s head!

There was no escape!

Chu Fan’s pupils contracted violently. Acting on pure instinct, he dropped backward, his entire body falling flat with his hands and feet planted on the ground.

"Immovable as a Mountain, Pillow Sea as Emperor!"

RUMBLE—!

The sword light struck him, and the very earth cried out in anguish!

Dust and smoke billowed into the sky. Where he had been, a massive, bottomless chasm hundreds of feet long had been carved into the earth!

At the same time, an incomparably tyrannical wave of rebound Sword Qi surged up from the ground, forcing even Zhang Tianyu in the air to flicker and rapidly shift his position to narrowly avoid it.

"Hmph. He was asking for death."

Zhang Tianyu hovered in midair, sneering as he looked down at the bottomless fissure.

’To take a full-powered strike from a Ruyi Realm expert head-on... even a Martial Artist specializing in Body Refinement would have been turned to pulp.’

"I wonder who gave you the courage... for an ant like you to dare provoke me..."

Before he could finish his taunt, his voice died in his throat.

WHOOSH!

A figure shot out from the abyssal chasm, moving like a humanoid spider in an exceedingly bizarre manner!

Chu Fan’s clothes were in tatters, revealing a powerful torso. Golden light flowed across his skin—he was completely unharmed!

"How is that possible?!" Zhang Tianyu’s eyelid twitched violently as a storm raged in his heart.

’What is this kid’s body made of?’

’Even an Ancient Treasure would have shattered!’

In that moment of stunned silence, Chu Fan did not flee. Instead, he harnessed the rebound force from the ground and shot into the sky like a golden cannonball!

Pushing the "Nine Heavens Wind Mastery Scripture" to its limit, he rode the air itself, soaring straight toward the heavens!

Zhang Tianyu couldn’t comprehend Chu Fan’s actions. He turned to look at the fleeing Princess Zhaohua and her retinue, just about to swing his sword...

VMMMM!

An endless black mist suddenly erupted from Chu Fan’s body, rapidly condensing and twisting behind him.

This was no ordinary mist. It was the soul of the Zhang Family Ancestor, which Chu Fan had released from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner!

The black mist roiled, instantly taking the form of the Zhang Family Ancestor’s aged, sinister, and startlingly lifelike face!

Sensing this aura, an ancient, majestic voice filled with endless venom shrieked from within Zhang Tianyu, echoing through the heavens. "You little bastard! You dare to perform Refinement on my Soul Division!"

"Yu’Er! Forget the others! Slaughter this little bastard first!"

"I will grind his bones to ash! I will perform Soul Extraction and Spirit Refining on him! AAAAAHHH!"

This was a command that struck from the very depths of his soul.

Zhang Tianyu had borrowed the ancestor’s power to achieve his breakthrough; deep within his soul, reverence and obedience to the ancestor were already branded.

Now, hearing his "ancestor’s" command, his already chaotic mind was instantly consumed by hatred.

"CHU! FAN!"

Zhang Tianyu let out a bloodcurdling roar.
