Unrivaled Martial Emperor Chapter 484 -Setting Off a Huge Wave

Chapter 484 – Setting Off a Huge Wave

“Did you hear the news? Chen Fan messed up Jingtian Peak as soon as he returned to the sect and took Senior Brother Duan Jingtian’s Nine Halls Golden Pagoda. He even injured a grand elder with a single strike. He has to be a god or a devil with invincible might!”

“Senior Brother Duan Jingtian’s Nine Halls Golden Pagoda? My god, where did he get the nerve? Isn’t he afraid that Senior Brother will come after him for revenge?”

“Hehe, the two will fight soon anyway. When Chen Fan was still an outer sect disciple, Duan Jingtian relied on his strength and status to take his Ice Jade Snow Lotus. So, Chen Fan’s actions are just retribution, I say.”

“Just how angry will Duan Jingtian be? Will he fight Chen Fan to the death as soon as he leaves the Black Wind Cliff?”

“Let’s wait and see. I’m sure Duan Jingtian has heard the news by now. I expect there will be some action soon, and it might be quite dramatic.”

“Ahh… It’s a shame I missed seeing Chen Fan take the treasure by force. How regretful.”

“I know, right? Chen Fan has been too rapid. Even our grand elders are no match for him. I heard Chen Fan could have killed the red-bearded grand elder instantly if Chen Fan hadn’t hesitated to kill him.”

“Raising hell on Jingtian Peak and disregarding the sect rules. It truly is lawless.”

“……”

The entire Spring Autumn Sect was shaken as the news spread.

Jingtian Peak was Duan Jingtian’s cultivation peak; before Chen Fan, no one had dared to cause trouble there.

Chen Fan, a rookie holy disciple, took his treasure, injured a grand elder, and humiliated Merit Elder, Elder Liehuo, and the others without a care.

The crowd couldn’t believe all that was real, as in their eyes, each one of those actions was no different from seeking death.

However, Chen Fan did all that and left casually without anyone stopping him. Even the sect leader did not make an appearance. This incident was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone deeply.

As a result, everyone was eagerly waiting to see how Duan Jingtian would react.

……

Black Wind Cliff:

“Elder, what brought you here?” A look of doubt flashed across Duan Jingtian’s eyes when he saw the red-bearded elder coming to him.

The elder said, “I’m here today to tell you that Chen Fan has just violated the sect rules and taken your Nine Halls Golden Pagoda.”

“What? That little beast stole my Nine Halls Golden Pagoda while I was not around?”

A cold fury surged from Duan Jingtian, making the red-bearded grand elder nearby feel a chill that seemed to penetrate his bones.

The red-bearded elder felt somewhat shaken in his heart. He knew Duan Jingtian was very powerful and superior to him in strength.

However, he didn’t expect Duan Jingtian to be that powerful. The chilling intent arising from his anger made him feel an unbelievable coldness.

“That little beast claimed that you took his Ice Jade Snow Lotus, so he is taking your Nine Halls Golden Pagoda today in return. He also said you could take the treasure back after defeating him; if you couldn’t defeat him, he would also take your life.”

“That damned little bastard. Who knew a single rash action would come back to haunt me like this? Damn it!”

Waves of chilling light shot out from Duan Jingtian’s eyes as murderous intent surged from him.

He looked at the red-bearded grand elder, sensing his unstable, even weak, aura, and asked, “Red Beard Elder, you exchanged blows with that little beast and lost?”

A bit embarrassed, the red-bearded grand elder said, “My skills are inferior. That little beast is indeed terrifyingly strong. He defeated me in one blow. He probably possesses combat strength equivalent to a ninth-level expert. You…”

“Ninth level, huh…” Duan Jingtian narrowed his gaze slightly, a little surprised.

“It’s no wonder he dares to act so arrogantly; still, he’s sure to die.”

A palpable killing intent radiated from Duan Jingtian’s eyes. He said to the red-bearded grand elder, “Elder, spread the word. Seven days from now, we will fight to the death at the central battlefield!”

“Alright, since you have full confidence, we old guys also feel much more confident!” The red-bearded grand elder nodded and left right away.

Soon, news spread throughout the Spring Autumn Sect, causing a huge commotion.

“It’s set. The day for Senior Brother Duan Jingtian and Chen Fan’s duel is set. It’s when Duan Jingtian’s punishment ends, which is a week away.”

“I’m really looking forward to it. Who will win?”

“That goes without saying. Of course, it’ll be Senior Brother Duan Jingtian!”

“Not necessarily. Chen Fan’s strength is also very terrifying. Even the red-bearded elder couldn’t withstand a single blow from him.”

“All this chatter is pointless. Let’s just wait and see the show in seven days. Their battle will be more spectacular than the battle between Senior Brother Duan Jingtian and Zhong Ya!”

“Unbelievable! Three years ago, who would have thought Chen Fan would come this far? That crazy bastard actually did it. His terrifying strength is no inferior to Senior Brother Duan Jingtian now. It’ll be an intense fight between a dragon and a tiger.”

“This battle will decide our Spring Autumn Sect’s future. Whoever wins will be the next sect leader and determine the outcome of the faction struggles within the sect.”

“……”

As the news spread, the entire Spring Autumn Sect boiled with excitement.

Even disciples in secluded cultivation, usually detached from worldly affairs, emerged one after another, eagerly awaiting the fated day

This battle would go down in the annals of the Spring Autumn Sect’s history.

Duan Jingtian was the sect’s most exceptional holy disciple since its inception. Before Chen Fan’s rise, he alone suppressed all the other holy disciples, making them bow their heads and dominating the inner sect.

On the other hand, Chen Fan was a legend and a miracle.

In only three years, he soared from an outer sect disciple to a holy disciple. He grew to an astonishing level, possessing the terrifying strength to stand up to Duan Jingtian. Even the grand elders of the sect were no match for him.

Duan Jingtian was an exceptional prodigy, and Chen Fan was a monster.

However, Chen Fan was like a god among mortals. After all, even Duan Jingtian’s rise to power wasn’t as fast as his. In the people’s eyes, his rise simply happened overnight.

His cultivation improved by leaps and bounds day after day. Not even a rocket could catch up to the speed at which he advanced.

Apart from describing him as a god’s descent, the only fitting words would be an immortal’s reincarnation. Otherwise, no one could understand how Chen Fan could rise to this level so quickly.

Even though the merit elder made a well-intentioned mistake by giving him the Divine Stone of Life, it wouldn’t have such a dramatic effect on his cultivation.

Apart from the inner sect disciples, even the sect elders and grand elders looked forward to the fight, their blood boiling in anticipation.

For the elders in the sect leader and the high elder’s factions, Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian’s duel would decide the winner between the two major factions and their futures.
