Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

”Intermediate Grade Divine Power: Furious Wind’s Roar!”

Xiao Tian unleashed his Divine Power Technique. The winds howled between heaven and earth, roaring incessantly as if Heaven itself were enraged and about to unleash thunderous punishment. This Divine Power was immensely powerful, capable of not only damaging the physical body but also inflicting great harm on the Divine Sense.

”Invincible Dao Heart!”

”Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds!”

Su Han remained unfazed, pressing down with an invincible aura while letting out a long roar akin to a heavenly dragon’s cry. The sound waves surged like tides, shaking the Nine Heavens. Empowered by the Dragon’s Might of this place, he completely suppressed Xiao Tian’s Divine Power Technique. Su Han was indeed of humble origin, but the Origin Techniques and Divine Methods he possessed were in no way inferior to those of the Imperial Clan’s prodigies; in fact, they were even stronger.

”Ice-Fire Sixth Layer Heavens!”

The Samadhi True Fire and the Triple Chilling Nether Qi whistled out, converging into a six-petaled Ice-Fire Lotus. Carrying both scorching heat and biting cold, two diametrically opposed energies, it shot straight for Xiao Tian.

”Origin Technique: Eye of the Storm!”

Xiao Tian dared not be careless and instantly cast his own Origin Technique. In a flash, a storm gathered into a thousand-meter-wide vortex, rushing to meet the Ice-Fire Lotus.

BOOM!

In an instant, the two violent energies collided in midair. The Void trembled and the world boomed with shocking ferocity. The entire Dragon Blood Mountain shook as if it might collapse at any moment.

The winds howled as ice and fire splattered everywhere. Amidst it all, Su Han quickly deployed the Character Technique of Motion and Lightning Fast. His thirteen-fold speed manifested, turning him into a streak of light. Moving with unbelievable quickness, he pushed through the torrent of violent energy and swiftly advanced on Xiao Tian. His body glowed with a radiant shine. His Sacred Body was nearing Great Accomplishment, making his Physical Body unrivaled and incredibly robust. Coupled with his five defensive Origin Techniques, the violent energies that struck him failed to cause any damage.

”Black Netherworld Flower!”

Su Han flicked his finger, and a Black Netherworld Flower slowly flew out. It was similar to the one produced by Blossoming with One Thought, but it lacked a doppelganger. This delicate flower, as exquisite as a work of art, flew toward Xiao Tian with a slow yet steadfast speed. No matter how Xiao Tian tried to defend himself, he could not alter its trajectory.

Eventually, the Black Netherworld Flower entered the space between Xiao Tian’s brows. He was struck as if by a heavy blow and sent flying backward, spewing fresh blood as his aura rapidly weakened. This particular Black Netherworld Flower specialized in breaking Physique Fusion. It forced Xiao Tian’s Wind God Physique out of his body, making it impossible for him to utilize the power of the Physique, let alone cast Divine Power Techniques.

”What technique is this?” Xiao Tian was dumbfounded. He had never heard of or seen such a thing before; there were no records of it, even within the Imperial Clan.

Unfortunately, Su Han had no intention of answering. He closed in, clenching his left fist. The Golden Fist Radiance shone like a sun, dazzlingly bright and embodying Vajra Undying.

”Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist!”

With the Dragon Silkworm Silk Gloves on, the Golden Emperor Phantom emerged behind him, its divine might as inviolable as the heavens. He threw a punch, and the Void shook with continuous, booming explosions. The Golden Fist Radiance swept across the sky, smashing directly toward Xiao Tian.

Having just had his Wind God Physique forced out, Xiao Tian was severely injured and his situation was dire, even with the effects of the Instant Dao Pill. Clenching his teeth, he gripped the Extreme Killing Dao Sword. His Sword Qi coalesced into a windstorm as he attempted to withstand the punch. But the blow was simply too powerful. If Xiao Tian had been at his peak, perhaps he could have resisted, but in his current state, he was no match for it.

BANG!

A dull thud echoed between heaven and earth. Xiao Tian was unable to resist the Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist. The Extreme Killing Dao Sword was sent flying from his grip, and the hand that wielded it burst open, gushing blood. It was nearly crippled.

”Nine Heavens Divine Light!”

Once Su Han made his move, he went all out, leaving Xiao Tian no opportunity. His Divine Sense converged at the point between his brows, forming the Nine Heavens Eye. An instant later, a golden Nine Heavens Divine Light shot out like a ray from the heavens, piercing through everything, utterly invincible.

”AH!”

A scream erupted from Xiao Tian’s mouth as he tumbled backward. Blood streamed from his eyes, and his face twisted into a ghastly grimace like that of a fierce demon. His complexion turned paler than ever before, as though he had suffered a grave illness. The Nine Heavens Divine Light specialized in shattering the Divine Sense. Xiao Tian’s sea of consciousness was now heavily damaged, filled with cracks and broken into fragments. His head throbbed with a pain so intense it felt as if it were about to explode.

At this moment, not even the Instant Dao Pill could save him unless he possessed another Golden Holy Talisman. But such treasures were far too precious. Even as a prodigy of the Imperial Clan, he only had one to preserve his life. Now, Xiao Tian was out of tricks and severely injured. Having already consumed an Instant Dao Pill, he had no chance of turning the situation around.

”Kill!”

Su Han took a step, swift as a shooting star, and rushed straight for Xiao Tian. The Black Blade in his hand emitted a chilling glare and a Demonic Intent that could shatter one’s spirit.

”Su Han, you can’t kill me! I am of the Xiao Family! You have already offended the Tian Lou Saint; if you kill me, my Xiao Family will never let you go! At that point, you’ll have offended two great forces!”

Watching Su Han rapidly closing in, Xiao Tian knew he could not withstand another blow, but he was unwilling to die just like that. He quickly spoke, attempting to threaten Su Han with the power of the Xiao Family. The Xiao Family was one of the Four Great Imperial Clans of the Eastern Region and a top-tier power in the entire Desolate Heavenly Ancient Realm. They had not only Saints but also Great Emperor Realm powerhouses. In the presence of the Xiao Family, the vast Qingzhou was nothing more than a speck, let alone a mere Su Han within it. The dignity of the Xiao Family could not be violated by outsiders. Even Jing Yun would not dare to kill Xiao Tian rashly, lest he provoke the Xiao Family and spark a war between two Imperial Clans. As for other forces, not even the strongest of the Ten Great Holy Lands, the Tian Luo Net Holy Land, could compare. Even if the Tian Lou Saint himself were present, he wouldn’t dare to kill Xiao Tian.

This was his greatest source of confidence. Xiao Tian intended to use his family to threaten Su Han and buy himself an opportunity for revenge. He had already consumed the Instant Dao Pill, so there was no turning back. But before he died, he wanted to drag Su Han down with him.

Unfortunately, he had still underestimated Su Han. The Xiao Family was indeed powerful, and an Imperial Clan was not to be provoked. But since they were enemies, there would be no holding back.

”Su Han, let’s perish together!”

Seeing that Su Han was utterly unmoved, Xiao Tian realized his threats had failed. Now without any defensive means, he steeled his heart. He prepared to self-destruct as soon as Su Han got close, intending to take him down with him. As a Divine Power Realm Ninth Layer powerhouse, the force of his self-detonation would be no less than a strike from a heavenly monarch. But Su Han had no intention of giving him that chance.

”Divine Prohibition Heavenly Method!”

His Divine Sense surged forth, enacting the Divine Prohibition Heavenly Method. Xiao Tian’s body instantly stiffened, immobilized on the spot.

”Behead!”

The next moment, the Black Blade fell like a bolt of lightning from the sky, directly beheading Xiao Tian.

What did it matter if he was a prodigy of the Imperial Clan? He would be killed all the same.
