Unrivaled Martial Emperor Chapter 455 -A Narrow Escape

Chapter 455 – A Narrow Escape

“This… this…” Chen Fan was rendered speechless, the sight before him robbing him of the ability to think.

All the devils in the entire Blood Flesh Swamp knelt, performing the most devout prayer.

Clatter!

The divine light chains moved and clattered again, snapping Chen Fan out of his stupor.

Even shackled by the chains, the head’s aura made Chen Fan feel like an ant, extremely tiny and insignificant. He felt like the head could kill him with a thought.

“Hmm, brat, I didn’t expect you to barge into the Blood Flesh Swamp and even slay this emperor’s subordinates!” A grand, majestic will descended, condemning Chen Fan for his actions.

Chen Fan felt his limbs turn ice-cold. He had not expected such a terrifying entity to exist in this otherworldly space.

His thoughts quickly recovered, and he realized that the nine chains of divine light were likely a form of sealing power, sealing and suppressing this head here.

The power this head possessed was unimaginable, but it was most certainly above the Divine Nascent realm or the Heavenly Star realm, perhaps even greater.

After all, if it were his head that had been chopped off, he would have died long ago.

Experts at the Divine Nascent realm created a divine nascent. It could help them be reborn after their fleshly body died by means of possession of another’s body.

However, this entity had not been reborn by possession. Instead, it remained as a head, suppressed here. Such a feat was beyond the capabilities of a Divine Nascent realm martial artist, and perhaps even beyond the Heavenly Star realm.

Chen Fan had encountered a Heavenly Star realm expert before. Daoist Corpse Spirit, a powerhouse at the peak of the Heavenly Star realm, had been suppressed for three thousand years. The Heavenly Yang Sacred Water had corroded his body, so he wanted to possess Chen Fan to be reborn.

“Who are you?” Chen Fan asked cautiously. His mind raced, calculating frantically.

He felt bitter, as he hadn’t expected the otherworldly space to be this dangerous. The presence of this head made it impossible for him to even think about resisting. When he had encountered the Blood Corpse Demon King, the opponent had been strong but at least Chen Fan didn’t feel as weak as an ant.

“Who am I? You’re not qualified to know!”

Another majestic will smashed into Chen Fan’s mind, carrying immense pride and contempt. The entity seemed to consider Chen Fan’s question an insult, deeming him unworthy of knowing its name.

“Since Senior is unwilling to tell me your name, then I apologize for the intrusion. I will take my leave now. Please excuse me, Senior,” Chen Fan said nervously.

This was by far the closest he had come to death in his life. He needed to be especially careful, as if treading on thin ice.

“You want to leave just like that?” A mocking voice echoed in Chen Fan’s mind, causing him to stiffen.

Chen Fan’s mind worked as fast as lightning. He immediately swept out, flying toward the tunnel.

“Mere ant, actually thinking of escaping in front of me? What a joke! If I don’t let you leave, not even the supreme god could save you. If I want you dead, you won’t live past midnight!”

A tyrannical will descended upon him, binding him in place. His qi stopped circulating, and the paralyzing fear of death struck his heart.

I’m done for!

Those words appeared in Chen Fan’s mind.

This massive head only needed its powerful will to confine the space. In front of him, Chen Fan was like an ant, utterly powerless and without any means to resist.

“Ant, since you killed my subordinates, you take over Blood Corpse Demon King’s position and stand guard here. Now, I’ll use the Blood Flesh Swamp’s power to transform you into a blood corpse!”

Ten thousand years ago, the Blood Corpse Demon King used to be an exceptional genius in the Tianwu Continent. He coincidentally entered the otherworldly space-time and slaughtered numerous devils. His actions disturbed the head, so he refined the genius into a blood corpse.

Now, Chen Fan was about to meet the same fate.

The nearby fresh blood swamps began boiling, bubbling with blood bubbles. Guided by a force, the blood gathered in the air, forming a blood-colored finger that flew toward Chen Fan’s glabella.

A terrifying power restrained Chen Fan, so he couldn’t move an inch. Even his thoughts were restrained.

However, heaven and earth changed colors moments before the finger could pierce Chen Fan’s glabella.

A terrifying golden light suddenly burst out from Chen Fan’s glabella, dyeing this otherworldly space golden and melting that blood-colored finger like snow.

A small figure, radiating a golden glow, emerged from Chen Fan’s glabella, their gender obscured by the shimmering light. Suddenly, they opened their eyes, unleashing a majestic divine power that pierced through the dark, otherworldly space. Under this golden radiance, the devils, large and small, screamed and vanished.

The entire space shook under this divine might, akin to a god’s retribution upon those who dared defy it.

The head, which had been communicating with his thoughts all along, was shocked into speaking with his mouth, his voice filled with horror and astonishment.

“Ah… this is… god—”

He couldn’t finish speaking as the small golden person spoke up.

Though they didn’t use human language, their words resonated with nobility, purity, and holiness, inspiring awe and reverence in all who heard them.

This was the language of gods!

Each word pulsated with golden light and power that suppressed the world. They flew toward the massive head, making him let out miserable screams.

Chen Fan saw a divine nascent emerging from that head, but nine chains of divine light restrained it. The divine nascent burst out with terrifying power, resisting the impact of the golden words.

Rumble!

A destructive aura instantly filled the otherworldly space, as if the doomsday had arrived. The earth split open, and the once calm landscape transformed into a scene of devastation.

As the small golden person unleashed their might, the power restraining Chen Fan broke. He could now move.

The small golden person was pretty much invincible, destroying everything with overwhelming might.

The eyes of that massive head’s divine nascent were about the size of a water jar. As they looked at the small golden person, their vicious gaze was filled with horror and shock. “This is the language of the gods. What cultivation technique are you practicing? A god-tier cultivation technique! How is that possible!”

Roar! The head let out a furious roar. The divine might of the small golden person repeatedly pushed back his powers. The roar mobilized almost all of the head’s power. An aura that covered heaven and earth erupted from his divine nascent.

“Life Reversal, depleting the origin, break for me! Even a god can forget about killing me!” roared the head. The entire space quivered as a terrifying force surged forth, twisting heaven and earth upside down.

Chen Fan was powerless to resist this shockwave. He coughed up blood violently, thrown back by the sheer force of the impact.

Meanwhile, the small golden figure continued to speak in the divine tongue, its words accelerating. Suddenly, all the golden radiance converged into a single point, piercing through countless barriers and piercing the head’s glabella.

Ah! A large hole appeared in the head, his divine nascent gravely damaged.

As the small golden figure’s power waned, it swiftly withdrew the golden light and returned to Chen Fan’s forehead.

Chen Fan endured his injuries and darted into the space tunnel, rolling and crawling before disappearing from sight.
