Chapter 675 - Famous Across the Eastern Continent
Chen Fan stood tall in the sky, watching Yuan Powang flee in utter disgrace, his gaze fierce and unyielding.
He had won this battle. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert couldn’t defeat him. They suffered severe injuries and ran away in defeat.
This battle had been a test of willpower.
The first to falter would be the one to fall.
Fortunately, Chen Fan was the final victor, not Yuan Powang.
“Hahahaha!” Chen Fan laughed out loud. His voice resounded across the lands as he said, “Who can fight me?”
The nearby crowd’s minds trembled violently.
Who could fight Chen Fan?
Even though Chen Fan appeared miserable, with half his body broken, his aura still surged fiercely, radiating strength that instilled fear in all the onlookers.
“Yuan Powang was actually... defeated!”
The onlookers’ eyes widened in disbelief at the unexpected result.
Even during the crazy exchange between Chen Fan and Yuan Powang earlier, they still didn’t think Chen Fan would emerge as the final victor.
Although this result was surprising, it also made sense.
“Chen Fan is really a monster!”
“Yuan Powang is pathetic. Half-step Heavenly Star realm cultivation, yet he fled.”
“It’s not Yuan Powang’s fault. That Chen Fan is too terrifying! Against anyone else, Yuan Powang would have crushed them in a single move. But Chen Fan? The more he fought, the fiercer he became. It’s like he doesn’t fear death, pushing them both to their limits in a battle of endurance.”
“I’m afraid Chen Fan’s name will shake the entire eastern continent now.”
“That’s right. With seventh-level cultivation, he defied the heavens and fought the half-step Heavenly Star realm expert. Once this news spreads, he will undoubtedly become a legend across the eastern continent."
"But should we still... take action?" someone hesitantly asked, eyes darting with uncertainty.
Both Chen Fan and Yuan Powang were bloodied and battered, each teetering on the brink of collapse.
Although Chen Fan seemed as ferocious as ever, his fighting spirit high, everyone knew that Chen Fan’s injuries were very heavy. Now, he was at his weakest.
The powerful aura he radiated could very well be a desperate bluff to intimidate his foes.
For a moment, these people’s eyes lit up.
Do we make a move?
Their minds wrestled with the choice.
“Why don’t we make a move to probe him?” one suggested.
"Agreed. Let’s probe him first. If he’s still capable of a fight, we’ll retreat immediately.”
“Alright, then let’s probe him first!”
As they formed their plan, their hushed communication was not lost on Chen Fan. He shot a contemptuous gaze over, and said coldly, “You pathetic losers think you can test me? Stay back, all of you!”
Chen Fan unleashed the final streak of Green Lotus Sword Qi. It cleaved through the air like an ancient sword god carving through the fabric of time itself. It transcended reality, a devastating force descending upon them.
The crowd’s faces drained of color.
Loud roars resounded immediately.
“Quickly run!”
“Run! Damn it!”
Before any of them could even make a move to test him, Chen Fan unleashed a strike that seemed capable of annihilating the very world itself.
A suffocating aura descended upon them, dragging their minds into a hellish abyss of dread and regret.
“Ahhh...”
The Green Lotus Sword Qi was so terrifying that it even left a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert in tatters. These lesser contenders stood no chance.
Miserable cries resounded at once.
These people were completely powerless to resist. They were swept away by the attack. Severed limbs flew about, and fresh blood spilled like pouring rain.
“How nice it is now that it’s all cleaned up here!” Chen Fan declared, brushing off his palms as he surveyed the carnage before him.
His gaze swept across his surroundings. There were still some people. Naturally, they couldn’t escape his eyes, but he didn’t care.
He was sure that killing so many people with one stroke had shocked these people.
Immediately, Chen Fan moved, turning into a stream of light and disappeared into the horizon.
As he vanished, several silhouettes emerged from their hiding spots, each releasing a long, relieved sigh, as if they had narrowly escaped death itself.
“Phew!”
Chen Fan sweeping the crowd earlier with one stroke had truly scared them silly.
Even though Chen Fan was heavily injured, it was clear that he was a force no one dared to challenge.
That attack served as intimidation and also a warning.
“Terrifying! Too terrifying! It’s one thing to have someone like that as an ally, but if he becomes an enemy, it would be a true nightmare!”
“I know, right? He even scared away a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert. And those guys thought Chen Fan would be easy pickings in his current state, but they ended up getting annihilated. Tsk tsk, his methods are as brutal as his title suggests—Killing God.”
“Once word of this battle spreads, I’m afraid no one will dare to provoke Chen Fan again.”
“Haaa, some people are destined to be looked up to.”
“......”
These people chatted for a bit and then left.
As news of the battle between Chen Fan and Yuan Powang spread, for a time, the name Chen Fan shook the Gen Road completely. Soon, it echoed across the other Ancient Trial Roads, sweeping through the entire eastern continent like a tempest.
This battle catapulted Chen Fan into fame. His combat prowess left many in awe, especially considering that the grand half-step Heavenly Star realm Yuan Powang had failed to subdue him.
Despite the sight of Chen Fan, half his body broken and in a woeful state, no one dared to underestimate him. The sheer power he displayed, sweeping aside those who tried to take advantage of the chaos with a single stroke, commanded respect and fear.
Many people were scared out of their wits after hearing the news.
Chen Fan’s fierce reputation was earned from all the killings.
From the Blue Dragon Domain, Chen Fan forged a crimson path, each kill bolstering his strength until he reached the Shattered Star Domain. There, he first slew the Seven Eccentrics of Plum Mountain and fought Yuan Powang, ultimately driving the latter away and solidifying his reputation across the eastern continent.
While whispers of Chen Fan's secrets drove many into a frenzy, this battle also acted like a basin of cold water pouring down on those who had Chen Fan in their crosshairs. Lacking overwhelming strength, they could only stifle their greed, burying it deep within.
Chen Fan had also become the idol of countless people of the younger generation.
He had forced a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert to flee with only his seventh-level Divine Nascent realm cultivation. This kind of strength could be said to be ridiculously strong among the younger generation.
As news of his exploits spread, the entire eastern continent buzzed with discussions about Chen Fan.
On the eight Ancient Trial Roads that had opened, even the most renowned apex geniuses spoke his name with a mix of awe and envy, their eyes reflecting a flicker of ambition.
In a secret place, the First Dragon Lord gazed into the distance. Icy killing intent shot out of his eyes.
“Chen Fan... you killed my brothers. This grudge is absolutely irreconcilable. I will never let you off!”
The Flame King, Xiao Yan’s expression became complicated after hearing this news.
“He actually scared off a half-step Heavenly Star realm expert...”
The top geniuses on the other ancient roads were all muttering his name.
“Chen Fan...”
