Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 708 - Absorbing Evening Star Gold Qi

The evening star gold qi relentlessly attacked him, shredding his clothes and leaving him drenched in blood, his body covered in deep wounds.

“He’s already sucked in by the storm. It’s over for him. He can’t possibly break free.”

“Mmm. Let’s leave. There’s no way he can make it out alive.”

“Damn it, I still wish I could’ve killed him myself,” Qin Wang cursed as he watched Chen Fan vanish into the storm.

Convinced of his death, they turned and fled at full speed.

Chen Fan’s death was all but guaranteed after being devoured by this mega-scale Evening Star Golden Storm.

Meanwhile, the storm tossed Chen Fan around like a ragdoll. He had no control over himself. The razor-sharp evening star gold qi continued to slice into him, while gravel, spinning violently in the storm, hit him like mountains crashing down, forcing him to cough up blood.

The gravel might be tiny, but it had been accelerated to terrifying speeds by the Evening Star Golden Storm. They could penetrate a half-meter-thick steel plate at once.

The sheer force behind each piece was unimaginable.

Chen Fan felt like all his bones were about to break. He spewed fresh blood wildly, and his mind wavered, teetering on the edge of unconsciousness.

However, he knew that he absolutely could not faint.

If he did, the Hegemonic Golden Body would not function, and the toughness of his flesh would instantly fall off a cliff. The storm\'s relentless evening star gold qi would tear him apart. The gravel alone would rip through him, leaving him riddled with holes.

Although he was covered in wounds right now and drenched in blood, seemingly very heavily injured, Chen Fan knew his situation wasn’t as dire as it seemed. The worst had yet to come.

“I mustn’t faint, I definitely mustn’t faint!”

Chen Fan bit his tongue fiercely, the searing pain jolting him awake. He channeled the Hegemonic Golden Body to the limit, making golden light flicker on him.

Simultaneously, he also began to absorb and refine the evening star gold qi.

The Hegemonic Golden Body Scripture and Heaven Seizing Art were channeled simultaneously, drawing in the storm\'s deadly qi.

As the evening star gold qi came into contact with Chen Fan, it immediately showed signs of being assimilated.

Chen Fan carefully refined the evening star gold qi, integrating it into his flesh, blood, tendons, and bones. They now had a faint golden hue and were stronger than ever.

Chen Fan felt as if every fiber of his being was yearning for the evening star gold qi, a delicacy his body craved. His flesh, blood, tendons, and bones pulsated with a desire to consume it, enhancing his Hegemonic Golden Body in the process.

“Very good!”

A brilliant light flashed across Chen Fan’s eyes.

Although he was now full of holes and looked very miserable, he had persevered through it.

With each moment he absorbed and refined the evening star gold qi, his physique grew stronger, allowing him to adapt to the storm\'s harsh conditions.

“Good, good, good. Just like this. More evening star gold qi, devour it all!”

Chen Fan made the Heaven Seizing Furnace materialize and expanded it to frantically capture the evening star gold qi. The once deadly energy transformed into nourishment for his physique.

Suddenly, a stream of evening star gold qi, like a golden river, whistled over at an extremely fast speed.

Puchi!

Before Chen Fan could react, it slammed into his waist. Blood sprayed everywhere as the golden river penetrated him, nearly splitting his waist in two. The severity of the injury left him gasping.

“Damn it!”

Chen Fan’s complexion turned ghastly pale.

“Thinking of running away just like that after heavily injuring me? Not a chance, devour!”

Chen Fan’s gaze turned vicious, looking at this golden river. The Heaven Seizing Furnace shrouded over, enveloping a portion of the golden river.

This golden river was also evening star gold qi, though liquefied and incredibly dense, brimming with power.

“Refine!”

Chen Fan’s eyes glowed red, channeling the Hegemonic Golden Body Scripture and furiously refining the evening star gold qi.

His grievously injured waist began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not only that, the new flesh, blood, tendons, and bones emitted a faint golden luster.

Just like this, Chen Fan began his difficult cultivation within the Evening Star Golden Storm.

......

“What? Chen Fan is dead?”

“Chen Fan actually rushed into the Evening Star Golden Storm? That’s actively looking to die.”

“Even a Manifestation realm expert would have to avoid a mega-scale Evening Star Golden Storm like the plague. He’s definitely dead after rushing into it!”

“That mega-scale Evening Star Golden Storm swept through nearly half of the Little Demon Realm. It’s too terrifying. I saw it myself. Chen Fan had definitely run straight into a dead end by entering the storm.”

“......”

News of Chen Fan rushing into the Evening Star Golden Storm soon spread and almost everyone in the Little Demon Realm learned of it.

Many people felt sorry, especially those Chen Fan had saved before.

With Chen Fan’s talent, he would have become a pillar of the True Martial Academy in the future had he not died. However, Qin Wang and the others had forced him into entering the Evening Star Golden Storm.

After all, who would willingly enter the Evening Star Golden Storm? The only logical explanation was that he had been forced into it.

Cornered with no way to retreat, Chen Fan was left with no choice but to risk everything, hoping against hope for a miracle—though deep down, they all knew it was unlikely.

That was an Evening Star Golden Storm; these people all knew what that meant.

Each of them had witnessed its sheer devastation firsthand. It was a relentless force that left nothing but ruin in its path.

How could Chen Fan possibly survive after entering the mega-scale Evening Star Golden Storm?

Xiao Zhen and the other martial artists from the Hong Domain had gathered in a valley.

“Ahhh, damn it, damn it! Damn my insignificant strength! I couldn’t do anything for Chen Fan!”

News of Chen Fan’s presumed demise weighed heavily on them, igniting a storm of emotion.

Back at the Hidden Dragon Island, they had once fought side by side with Chen Fan against the white bone corpse demon.

He had recently risked his life to save them when they had been trapped by the demon army, displaying impressive courage.

But when Chen Fan was facing a life-and-death crisis, they could not do anything because they were too weak to help Chen Fan in any way.

Unable to help him, they were consumed by feelings of hatred—hatred for their own weakness, hatred for the injustice of the situation, and above all, hatred for Qin Wang and his group.
