Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Chapter 182: Chapter 182: How Is This Possible?

General Wei Yuan was dead, but Su Han merely looked up toward Lu Yunxian in the distance.

The Wood Grain Withering Technique just now was cast by Lu Yunxian.

After training with Liu Rumei, Lu Yunxian had not only recovered a substantial amount of her Origin Source, but her strength had also increased immensely.

The Qingmu Spirit Body, though mainly focused on healing, was not skilled in combat. However, as one of the ten Great Elders of the Seven Stars Sect, Liu Rumei naturally possessed some unique methods.

How could she simply stand by, indifferent, as Su Han faced danger? Thus, she took action, cooperating with Su Han to successfully kill General Wei Yuan and eliminate a threat.

The intense battle here drew the attention of many, causing them to shift their focus from Ning Feifan.

”What’s going on? Is someone fighting over an opportunity?”

”No, look! Isn’t that Su Han from the Seven Stars Sect? He’s being besieged by four Ninth-Layer Phenomenon Realm powerhouses. Those are experts from the Great Qian Dynasty. It seems they’ve come for revenge.”

”This Su Han is too strong! He’s not only holding his own against four enemies but even managed to counter-kill one. Could he really have slain Qian Xuan head-on?”

The crowd was in an uproar, buzzing with discussion. Su Han had become quite a notable figure by now, and many had heard of his impressive combat achievements.

Seeing Su Han besieged, everyone immediately guessed the reason. After all, though Su Han’s rise was swift, he had also offended many people, so being hunted was only natural.

When gods fight, mortals suffer. Many onlookers had already been caught in the crossfire and were heavily injured.

At this moment, the people around had no intention of intervening. Instead, they all retreated to get away from the area. After all, they were here to compete for opportunities, not to help besiege Su Han.

Meanwhile, Ning Feifan emerged from the third stone gate, having obtained many more opportunities.

He saw Su Han being attacked, but under the control of the Taiyin Demon Venerable, he merely glanced over before turning his attention away and heading toward the fourth stone gate.

Once I’ve obtained everything and returned to Yaoguang Peak, I will be able to escape my predicament!

Ning Feifan’s main goal this time was to seize the treasures of the Black Scorpion Poison Venerable to enhance his strength. Then, coordinating with allies on the outside, he would break the seal and escape Yaoguang Peak.

Su Han was clearly an obstacle. Ning Feifan was eager to kill him, so why would he save him? If someone else killed Su Han, it would save him the trouble.

Ning Feifan sneered and quickly opened the fourth stone gate.

”Damn it, who is he? How does he know this place better than we do?”

At that moment, the Blood Poison Little Demon Lord of the Heavenly Demon Cult was staring intensely at Ning Feifan, grinding his teeth with murder in his eyes.

He had been guided by the Toad Poison Venerable, so he knew the method to open the stone gates and what treasures they held. He had assumed all these opportunities were his for the taking, but Ning Feifan had appeared out of nowhere and snatched everything away. This was something he found hard to accept.

”Su Han is being besieged,” the Ghost Taming Little Demon Lord noted, glancing in that direction. ”Should we deal with him first?”

”No hurry,” the Blood Poison Little Demon Lord replied. ”Since he entered, he won’t be leaving alive. It’s better to let others do the dirty work so we can profit from their struggle. The priority right now is Ning Feifan. We must stop him, or he’ll snatch every treasure in this place.”

The Blood Poison Little Demon Lord had never taken Su Han seriously, regarding him as a fly that could be swatted at any time. There was no rush.

”Let’s go! If we join forces, even if we can’t injure him, we can still grab some treasures!”

Seeing Ning Feifan enter the fourth stone gate, the Blood Poison Little Demon Lord’s eyes flashed with a cold glint as he grabbed the Ghost Taming Little Demon Lord and charged after him.

The Supreme Cave Mansion was in total chaos. Some fought for their lives, some vied for opportunities, and others were fishing in troubled waters.

As for Su Han, he collected General Weiwu’s corpse into his Bronze Ring and, with the Black Blade in hand, took the initiative to attack.

”I said it before. All of you must die!”

Su Han’s gaze was indifferent, his killing intent icy cold. He activated the Character Technique of Motion, swiftly pursuing the feminine woman.

Among the remaining three, the feminine woman had been seriously injured by his blade earlier, making her the perfect target to kill first.

”Join forces!”

Su Han’s strength had exceeded the trio’s expectations. They no longer hesitated and prepared to launch a combined attack.

Although they each had different specialties, they all trained in the same set of cultivation techniques. By joining forces, their power increased dramatically.

”Illusory Yin Serpent!”

The auras of the three merged as their spiritual energy intertwined, condensing into a colossal, hundred-meter-long serpent.

This serpent was not made of flesh and blood but was a lifelike construct woven from the spiritual energy of the three. It emitted a dreadful pressure, comparable to a powerhouse at the First Layer of the Physique Realm.

”Su Han, die!” the burly man bellowed. The illusory serpent struck out like a true demonic serpent, lunging to kill Su Han.

The phantom embodied the burly man’s terrifying brute strength, the feminine woman’s agility, and the hunchbacked elder’s miasmic poison, rivaling a true Physique Realm yin serpent.

BOOM!

Su Han was sent flying, his feet carving two long tracks into the ground.

”Evil Qi Fog Miasma!”

The illusory serpent opened its mouth and spat a thick beam of black light at Su Han. It was a fusion of evil qi and miasma that shook the very space with its potency, so fierce that several nearby Martial Artists were hit, poisoned, and died on the spot.

But Su Han advanced instead of retreating, using the Character Technique of Motion to charge straight through the black beam toward the serpent.

”Overestimating yourself!”

Seeing Su Han trying to withstand the Evil Qi Fog Miasma with his physical body, the hunchbacked elder laughed coldly, mocking his folly.

However, Su Han was now radiant with golden light. His Sacred Body exerted its power, impervious to all evil, and was completely unaffected by the evil qi and miasma.

As for the force of the attack, it was completely blocked by his Dragon Phoenix Protection and Starry Moon Armor.

”Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist!”

”Third Style: Wrath of Thunderbolt!”

Su Han clenched his left fist as the Golden Emperor Phantom materialized behind him. His right hand gripped the blade, roaring with immense Thunder Light, as if the heavens themselves were about to unleash divine punishment.

He had long since activated his Nine Heavens Eye and seen through the illusory serpent’s weaknesses.

A phantom was still a phantom. No matter how lifelike, it could never compare to the real thing.

BOOM!

Su Han struck swiftly. His Golden Fist Radiance swept across the sky while his Thunderbolt Blade Light cleaved the heavens.

In an instant, the illusory serpent’s weak points were struck, and it disintegrated. The trio suffered a backlash, spitting blood as they were flung backward, landing heavily on the ground, severely wounded.

”How could this be?”

They looked on in shock, unable to believe that their combined technique had been so easily shattered.

But Su Han’s momentum was unbroken. He gripped his Black Blade and swiftly charged forward.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

A brilliant light suddenly burst forth as deafening sounds filled the air. All eight of the smaller stone doors had now been opened. Ning Feifan stood before the largest stone door in the center, where he broke the Great Formation and pushed it open.

The greatest opportunity was about to appear. In that moment, everyone went mad
