Chapter 495 – Battling to the Point of Insanity

Chen Fan’s sudden terrifying outburst stunned everyone.

The crowd held their breath as they saw Chen Fan charging at Duan Jingtian like a blazing sun, their eyes wide with disbelief.

Duan Jingtian, bleeding from multiple wounds, steadied himself. As he raised his head, he sensed an overwhelming pressure descending upon him, like an ancient ferocious beast charging at him.

His irises shrank violently. A fierce look shone in his eyes as he channeled his cultivation furiously, summoning a shocking aura again. Wielding the divine halberd, he charged over. As he swung his weapon, numerous halberd lights annihilated everything in their path.

Boom, boom, boom…

Chen Fan stabbed his spear violently, his terrifying strength within him erupting as he willed it. Every thrust of his spear shook the heavens and made the ghosts and the spirits weep. His immense power rattled Duan Jingtian’s qi and blood.

“Heaven Piercing Thrust!”

A sacred light spread across the universe. An ocean of light descended from the void, transforming into an earth-shattering stab. Even the heavens seemed ready to crack open under this spear.

Duan Jingtian instantly caught a whiff of the deadly crisis. His irises shrank violently, but he wasn’t willing to show any signs of weakness. He channeled his energy furiously, and with a sweep of his arm, he shouted, “Purgatory Halberd Art, Purgatory Opens the Sky!”

Heaven and earth rumbled.

A wisp of light erupted within the primal chaos, directly splitting it apart. The elements floated and sank, resembling the scene of the world’s creation.

This halberd contained the terrifying strength to split heaven and earth.

Rumble!

Following a loud noise, the crowd saw something that they would never forget. Chen Fan’s spear directly annihilated the primal chaos. With the primal chaos gone, how could heaven and earth be split?[1]

The terrifying spear light shattered everything before smashing into Duan Jingtian’s chest.

The immense force seeped into him, causing a series of explosions. Duan Jingtian instantly became a bloody mess, covered in fresh blood from head to toe.

Forced back and gravely injured, a hideous expression appeared on Duan Jingtian’s face. He clawed randomly and roared furiously, sending chills down people’s spines. “How could this happen? What happened to your strength? Why are you so powerful!”

The crowd could clearly hear the fear in Duan Jingtian’s voice.

As Duan Jingtian retreated, he executed a desperate killing technique. Streaks of divine halberd light tore through the skies like dragons and snakes dancing, locked onto Chen Fan, and flew toward him.

Chla!

A shocking light rushed into the sky, nearly making the planets drop. The surroundings transformed into chaos, tearing Duan Jingtian’s attack into shreds.

Crackle!

Chaotic ringing and explosions rang in space.

Heaven and earth fell silent.

The crowd looked at the central battlefield, petrified. None of them came back to their senses.

The state of battle had changed too quickly. Duan Jingtian had gained the upper hand, but suddenly found himself at an absolute disadvantage, looking miserable from Chen Fan’s attacks. Not a hint of his invincible image from before could be seen.

Chen Fan stood proudly in the air, holding his iron spear. The sound of his qi and blood surging was like the roars of the Yangtze River, with the strength to pull down mountains and rivers. His aura was unrivaled—he was like an immortal who had descended into the world.

Duan Jingtian retreated several thousand meters, bleeding along the way. He finally steadied himself and channeled his qi to suppress his injuries. He looked up at Chen Fan, revealing cold killing intent.

“Die!” Duan Jingtian spat out an icy note.

He had already given all he had. He would never allow himself to fail, much less allow himself to be defeated by Chen Fan.

He must kill Chen Fan!

He was Duan Jingtian, a god among these mortals—an existence who would never lose!

He held the powerful Purgatory Divine Halberd in his hand, emitting eerie halberd light. A chilling light shone from the crescent moon-like blade, wrapped in countless wronged souls of immortal spirits. Its surface was covered in traces of blood, left behind by the powerful existences he had put to death.

Dragon, Taotie, Qilin, Pixiu, [2] and other divine beasts were on the halberd. Purgatory materialized as he waved the halberd, breaking through the space. Ghosts wailed and gods howled. Countless phenomena materialized and transformed like a fleeting scenery behind him.

“Die!”

When had Chen Fan feared fighting?

He was also powerful beyond words. He channeled the Myriad Elephants Divine Art to the limit. An otherworldly space-time followed at his back, and he was constantly generating tremendous strength. The surrounding space tore apart with the slightest movement of his arm.

His attack was swift and fierce, imposing and majestic, piercing through the void like a deity of death harvesting souls. The light of dusk was like the final splendor of life.

The crowd felt like they were gazing at the evening sun. It was infinitely beautiful, but an ancient god of war emerged, thrusting an iron spear toward that blazing twilight sun.

Pop!

The iron spear pierced through the twilight sun, casting the land into darkness once more.

Duan Jingtian poured everything he had into this fight, and so did Chen Fan.

Neither had a path of retreat now. Their fight had reached its climax, demanding a victor, and possibly determining their fates.

Both fighters unleashed every ounce of their strength, no longer holding anything back. Every move they made contained tremendous power that could shatter the stars and disrupt the fabric of time and space.

The terrifying qi currents surged like the Yangtze River in the void, crashing, destroying, and killing.

It was the twilight of doom, a battle between two titans resembling a final clash of almighty gods.

“Purgatory Halberd Art, die, die, die!” Duan Jingtian shouted furiously. Wounds appeared on him one after another, blood flowing freely, yet he seemed oblivious, lost in a frenzy of strikes. Streaks of destructive halberd light swept across the sky.

“Strength of Myriad Elephants, annihilate, annihilate, annihilate!”

Chen Fan’s long hair flew wildly as his aura surged into the sky.

He also ignored his injuries and attacked crazily. Streaks of spear light whisked across the sky, shattering the laws of nature and releasing destructive fluctuations.

Everyone watched in awe with bated breath, forgetting to think.

The entire world was seemingly focusing on Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian, exchanging blows and clashing madly.

Their clash destroyed the space, tore the earth apart, shook the lands, and turned the sky on its head.

The two fought from the skies to the ground and back again, the central battlefield consumed by their destructive clash. If their unleashed power broke free, it could level the entire Spring Autumn Sect.

Both fought with reckless abandon, consumed only by the desire to defeat and kill the other.

“Ahhh, damn it, damn it, die! I’ll kill you in one blow!” Duan Jingtian roared furiously, thrusting forth his Purgatory Divine Halberd once more. His wounds did not hinder him; he swiftly closed the distance to Chen Fan.

Duan Jingtian gathered his strength on the Purgatory Divine Halberd. He suddenly leaped higher into the sky, like a divine dragon crossing the sky or a whale emerging from the sea, and hurtled down with the force to rend the heavens.

It resembled an ancient deity moving mountains to crush the earth ruthlessly—such was the awe-inspiring might of Duan Jingtian.

Chen Fan remained unmoved, standing on the spot like a towering mountain.

A surge of strength rose within him and rushed into the sky. Gripping his iron spear like a pillar, he seemed to uphold the heavens and earth themselves.
