Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Full Firepower

In the eyes of the crowd, Senior Brother Qian Xuan was synonymous with invincibility, the very embodiment of perfection. This battle should have held no suspense; he should have been able to crush Su Han with a single finger.

But now... Senior Brother Qian Xuan was actually injured? This—how was this possible!

”Am I dreaming? How could Senior Brother Qian Xuan possibly get hurt?”

”Despicable! Su Han must have used some dirty trick, ambushing Senior Brother Qian Xuan when he wasn’t prepared. How utterly shameless!”

”I knew that kid was no good, daring to launch a sneak attack! I’m going to curse him out!”

These fanatics are beyond ridiculous. Su Han couldn’t be bothered to engage in a war of words with them.

”Second Style: One Slash Thunder Clap!”

Holding the Black Blade, Su Han executed the Character Technique of Motion. Instead of retreating, he advanced, taking the initiative to attack Qian Xuan. He had already activated his Dragon Phoenix Protection and Adorned with Stars and Moon, and had also activated his Nine Heavens Eye, going all out.

Even a lion uses its full might to hunt a rabbit. I am the rabbit aiming to turn the tables on the powerful lion, so I have to spare no effort and hold nothing back.

”You ant! You have successfully enraged me!”

Qian Xuan’s head snapped up. A cold light erupted in his eyes, his killing intent surging like a tidal wave. He could not accept being wounded; to him, it was a colossal humiliation. Only Su Han’s blood could wash away this disgrace.

WHOOSH!

He reached out, and a long spear appeared in his hand. It gleamed with starlight, forged from precious Stellar Spirit Gold and imbued with a thousand years of Sun and Moon Essence. It was an Intermediate Grade Dao Artifact. Its power was vastly greater than a Low Grade Dao Artifact, especially when wielded by Qian Xuan.

”Earth Rank Low Level Martial Technique: Starlight Nine Kills!”

As Qian Xuan held the Star Gold Dao Spear, a torrent of Spiritual Energy poured into it. Drawing upon the ambient energy of heaven and earth, he abruptly thrust toward Su Han. The world roared as brilliant starlight coalesced into nine spears, each a hundred meters long. They looked as solid as real metal and radiated a chilling killing intent, as if capable of piercing through the Nine Heavens themselves.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

The nine starlight spears shot out at once, completely surrounding Su Han and leaving him no escape.

But Su Han had never intended to flee. Gripping the Black Blade, empowered by Thunder Light, he unleashed One Slash Thunder Clap, cleaving through the air. Blade light cascaded like a waterfall, slashing out continuously and shattering all nine starlight spears. Yet, the spears were ephemeral, reforming as soon as they were shattered and continuing their assault on Su Han.

”Origin Technique: Netherworld Cold Tide!”

Su Han activated the Origin Technique of his Ice Sealing Emperor Body. A blast of frigid energy erupted, transforming into a surging cold tide that instantly froze the nine starlight spears solid, halting their attack.

At that moment, however, Qian Xuan, wielding the Star Gold Dao Spear, had already closed the distance. He wasn’t just a Physique Realm expert; he also possessed the Stellar Magnetism Primordial Body, making him extraordinarily powerful. As his spear thrust forward, Su Han felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

”Third Style: Thunderbolt’s Fury!”

Su Han reacted in a flash, executing the third style of the Thunderbolt Seven Absolute Slashes with his Black Blade. Thunder boomed, shaking the heavens as the Black Blade clashed with the Star Gold Dao Spear. A terrifying shockwave tore through the air, sweeping out in all directions. Su Han was blown back a hundred meters.

Even while wearing the Ghostly Face Mask, the gap between his and Qian Xuan’s realms was still enormous. He was no match for him in a head-on clash.

But Su Han had many tricks up his sleeve. Reaching out, he summoned the Demonic Blood Taoist Calabash. Activating it with the Secret of the Soldier Character, a hundred-meter-long river of blood surged forth, rushing toward Qian Xuan with a foul aura and Deadly Poison.

”You think a mere Demonic Weapon can harm me? Don’t overestimate yourself!” Qian Xuan snorted coldly. With a wave of his hand, a spray of starlight appeared. It wasn’t light, but countless grains of fine sand, each one shining brilliantly as if compressed from a star. This was Stellar Sand, forged from Stellar Spirit Gold. The set, consisting of 1,080 grains, was a Low Grade Dao Artifact.

BOOM!

The Stellar Sand collided with the river of blood. The bloody light collapsed and the starlight dimmed as both attacks recoiled, evenly matched.

However, Qian Xuan pressed forward again. His Star Gold Dao Spear flew like an unstoppable meteor, striking the Dragon Phoenix Protection with pinpoint accuracy.

CRACK!

Qian Xuan’s strength was overwhelming. Su Han’s Dragon Phoenix Protection couldn’t withstand the blow, and a huge crack instantly formed. A torrent of starlight then erupted like a volcano, shattering the Dragon Phoenix Protection completely before the spear stabbed into the Starry Moon Armor.

”Invincible Dao Heart!”

”Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds!”

At such close range, Su Han swung his blade at Qian Xuan while simultaneously activating his Invincible Dao Heart. He projected an invincible momentum toward his opponent, intending to shake his very Dao Heart.

DOOM!

The Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds was unleashed again. The sound wave, like the long cry of a heavenly dragon, surged forward, imbued with the intent of great annihilation, great punishment, and great slaughter. The attack struck Qian Xuan, causing his face to pale. He staggered backward, his body swaying, his head throbbing as if it would split apart.

A great opportunity!

Su Han’s eyes lit up. He immediately used the Character Technique of Motion to rush forward. Clenching his left fist, the Golden Emperor Phantom materialized once more.

BOOM!

The Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist shot forth again, embodying an indomitable, unstoppable power.

”Origin Technique: Myriad Encompassing Heavenly Attraction!”

Qian Xuan quickly activated his Stellar Magnetism Primordial Body and used its Origin Technique. An invisible magnetic field instantly appeared around him, its attractive force astonishing enough to pull in all things. When the Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist hit the magnetic field, it was like striking a wad of cotton. Its power was drastically reduced before Qian Xuan shattered the remaining force with his spear.

The Stellar Magnetism Primordial Body was ranked 508th on the list of Special Physiques and possessed a unique, remarkable Stellar Magnetism. Furthermore, Qian Xuan’s physique was nearing the Great Accomplishment stage, making it even more potent. A hundred-meter-wide magnetic field now surrounded him, like the Domain of a Supreme Realm expert, capable of defending against numerous attacks with its astonishing magnetic force.

”One Mysteries True Fire!”

”Origin Technique: Netherworld Cold Tide!”

Su Han acted swiftly, unleashing the One Mysteries True Fire and the Netherworld Cold Tide at the same time. They formed a devastating combination of ice and fire with enough power to easily shatter a mountain.

”Paltry tricks! Watch me break them!” Qian Xuan sneered and threw his Star Gold Dao Spear. Starlight swirled around it, and its magnetic force surged, distorting the air and shaking space with unparalleled power.

The dual assault of ice and fire clashed with the Star Gold Dao Spear, resulting in a massive explosion that sent out a heart-stopping wave of destruction.

A sharp glint flashed in Su Han’s eyes as he seized the opening. His Divine Sense surged as he cast three minor Divine Prohibitions in rapid succession: the Body Binding Technique, the Blinding Technique, and the Silencing Technique.

Caught unawares, Qian Xuan was instantly ensnared. With his strength, he could break free in a second, but Su Han would not miss such a chance.

”Nine Heavens Divine Light!”

Su Han fully activated his Nine Heavens Eye. A hair-thin beam of Divine Light shot out from his Heavenly Eye, breaking free from the constraints of space and time. It was like the first light of creation, carrying the aura of the Origin Source.

While Qian Xuan was immobilized, the power of his surrounding magnetic field was severely diminished. The Nine Heavens Divine Light pierced through the field and struck him squarely on the brow, puncturing it in a single blow.

At that moment, everyone was utterly astounded.

With his brow pierced, was Senior Brother Qian Xuan about to die?
