Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Su Han did not know the origin of the ancient spear, but he had seen it impale a kilometer-long dragon skull and a Leviathan during a Heavenly Tribulation. Now, not even the Jing Tribe Chief, a Great Emperor Realm expert, could withstand its sharpness. His wisp of Divine Sense was impaled and instantaneously obliterated.

This scene left Su Han utterly astonished. He never expected that the object to save him in the end would be such an ancient spear.

Having finished its work, the ancient spear returned to the center of his Spiritual Sea without a trace of aura. It was as if it had been disturbed from a sweet dream, awoke just long enough to swat an annoyance, and then went back to sleep.

But in the distant depths of the sea, a colossal whale as large as an island suddenly snapped its eyes open.

”What was that? What could obliterate my Divine Sense in an instant?”

This was the true body of the Jing Tribe Chief, and sensing the destruction of his Divine Sense had jolted him awake.

”Black Whale is in danger. The secrets this boy carries are by no means small. I must go see for myself.”

The Jing Tribe Chief moved, his massive form instantly stirring up monstrous waves as he sped toward the sea region where Su Han and Black Whale were. The departure of a Great Emperor shook the heavens and the earth. In an instant, the entire region was in an uproar. Countless demonic beasts stared in horror at the Jing Tribe Chief’s colossal figure, wondering what this great being intended to do.

Meanwhile, Su Han was oblivious to the fact that the Jing Tribe Chief had decided to intervene personally. At this moment, not only had he survived a life-or-death crisis, but he had also received an unexpected windfall.

The ancient spear had destroyed the Jing Tribe Chief’s Divine Sense but had not absorbed it. Now, that mighty Divine Sense had shattered into countless fragments, scattering throughout Su Han’s Spiritual Sea. The Jing Tribe Chief was a powerhouse of the Great Emperor Realm, and one of the best at that. A single wisp of his Divine Sense was enough to kill a Supreme or contend with a Saint; it was immense and majestic.

”Devour!”

With the Jing Tribe Chief’s Divine Sense destroyed, the Space-Time Freeze effect quickly vanished. Su Han regained his freedom and immediately activated the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art, greedily swallowing the remaining Divine Sense Fragments. The wisp of the chief’s Divine Sense was so potent that it shattered the bottleneck Su Han had been stuck at for so long, allowing him to condense his one-hundredth Divine Sense Stellar.

Within his Spiritual Sea, one hundred Divine Sense Stellars shone brilliantly, resembling a splendid night sky, their beauty intoxicating. However, the Divine Sense Stellars did not continue to condense. It was as if they had reached a certain node. Any further Divine Sense that Su Han devoured and refined was instead rapidly integrated into his Spiritual Sea, constantly reinforcing and strengthening it.

It is said that when spiritual power reaches a certain level, it can transform into a Spiritual Domain, similar to the Domain Power of the Supreme Realm but even more mysterious.

Having inherited the memories of fifteen divine demons, Su Han understood such matters and quickly deduced the changes occurring within him. Spiritual power had to undergo a transformation to become Divine Sense, and only by condensing a vast amount of Divine Sense could one form a Divine Sense Stellar. His Spiritual Sea now contained one hundred Divine Sense Stellars, and the Divine Sense Power they held was already immense. However, his Spiritual Sea could no longer bear the strain. It therefore needed to be consolidated and forged into a domain, making it more resilient so he could continue to condense Divine Sense Stellars.

What a pity I haven’t yet mastered a powerful Divine Sense cultivation technique; otherwise, the condensation efficiency would be much higher.

Su Han felt a pang of regret. He had obtained quite a few Origin Techniques and Divine Methods, but in terms of Divine Sense, he only had auxiliary types like the Nine Heavens Eye or restrictive ones like Spiritual Freeze. He lacked a true cultivation method for it. Su Han hoped a Divine Sense cultivation technique would be among the Divine Methods he obtained in the future, but such things could only be chanced upon, not sought after. He couldn’t force it.

Composing himself, Su Han continued to devour the Divine Sense Fragments. This was a great fortune for him. If he could devour and refine all the Divine Sense left by the Jing Tribe Chief, he was confident that his Spiritual Domain would be perfected. By then, with the Great Achievement of the Sacred Body and a consolidated Spiritual Domain, he would be cultivating both internally and externally, leaving him with no weaknesses.

The Devouring Heaven Demonic Art unleashed its might, drastically increasing his absorption efficiency. Soon, Su Han had completely devoured all the Divine Sense Fragments left by the Jing Tribe Chief. At this moment, his Spiritual Sea also underwent a metamorphosis. What was once as thin as a cicada’s wing and translucent, easily breached by intruders, had now thickened to the width of a chopstick. It had become a barrier, firmly protecting everything within. Such a Spiritual Sea had much stronger defensive power and could contain far more Divine Sense.

WHOOSH!

Su Han released his Divine Sense, instantly forming a Spiritual Domain with a radius of one hundred meters. Within this domain, he could perceive everything in exquisite detail—the flow of the wind, the fluctuations of space, and even the transformations of energy. Furthermore, once formed, the Spiritual Domain could be used for both offense and defense. Its miraculous applications were endless, far surpassing anything he could do before.

His Divine Sense was enhanced and his Spiritual Domain reached Great Accomplishment. Su Han swiftly opened his eyes and returned to the battle. He hadn’t forgotten that he was still in a life-and-death struggle with Black Whale. Not only had he survived the attack from the Great Emperor’s Treasure, but he had also used it to enhance his strength—a development that was undoubtedly a severe blow to Black Whale.

”Impossible! A wisp of the Chief’s Divine Sense is so powerful that not even a Saint can withstand it! How are you still alive?”

Seeing Su Han open his eyes again as the effects of the Space-Time Freeze gradually dissipated, Black Whale’s pupils constricted in shock. He cried out in utter disbelief.

Who was the Jing Tribe Chief? He was a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse, arguably the strongest expert in the East Sea. He stood at the pinnacle of Martial Arts, looking down upon all living beings—a truly invincible figure in the mortal world. But now, a single wisp of his Divine Sense had failed to kill this insignificant Su Han. How could Black Whale possibly accept this?

Unfortunately, the truth was right before his eyes. Su Han had awakened and broken free from the Space-Time Freeze. He was now brandishing the Black Blade and charging toward him, forcing Black Whale to accept reality.

Escape! Where there’s life, there’s hope. This is the East Sea; he can’t get away. In the end, his secrets will still be mine!

The thought of retreat filled Black Whale’s mind. He turned to flee, no longer willing to face Su Han. He was keenly aware of his own terrible condition, whereas Su Han still had the Shore Flower Doppelganger. To continue fighting meant certain death. He had come here seeking a fortunate opportunity, not to throw his life away. With his talent and status, as long as he didn’t die prematurely, he was destined to become a Great Emperor. There was no need to get entangled with a man who was doomed to die.

With this in mind, Black Whale swam with all his might, stirring up enormous waves. The East Sea was his element, allowing him to move with effortless ease. He was confident that if he wanted to escape, Su Han couldn’t stop him.

Unfortunately for him, his Dao Heart had wavered and his will to fight was gone, while Su Han’s fighting spirit and killing intent burned brightly.

”Cursing Killing Nether Technique!”

”Divine Prohibition Heavenly Method!”

”Dragon Slaying Demon Banner!”

Su Han and the Shore Flower Doppelganger attacked simultaneously. Suppressed by their Dao Heart, countered by their Demonic Intent, and weakened by curses and Divine Prohibitions, all while being harried by the Dragon Slaying Demon Banner, Black Whale stood no chance of escape.

Soon, the fierce battle erupted once more. This time, Black Whale was utterly defeated, left lying on the ocean surface, on the verge of death.

Su Han gripped the Black Blade, preparing to deliver the final blow.

Just at that moment, a violent and ferocious Supreme aura rushed toward them.

”Su Han, you’re courting death!”
