nChapter 509 Surrounded By Opponents
nThey are all Immortal State Warriors!
nIt was unthinkable.
n
n
nIt has been a few decades since the last time Immortal State Warriors showed up in the world. However, four of them showed up at the same time right before their eyes. If this news got out, the world would be shocked.
nThe Overlords from Southeast Asia gaped at the development and trembled in disbelief.
n“It… it really is a trap!” Fire Snake Lord knelt on the ground and murmured. “We are nothing but cannon fodder. They spread the information about the treasure to lure Chen Beixuan here.”
nMeanwhile, Guo Nuannuan and Huang Jin were shaken to the core.
n
n
n“He descended from the sky just like how it was described in legends.” Guo Nuannuan shivered, struggling to stand still.
nAs for Huang Jin, he was also shocked beyond belief. The other guards and young heirs of Malaysia all dropped to their knees while calling Chen Fan sage. Even Leng Tong was overtaken by fear and started to tremble uncontrollably.
nThese men and women were nothing but insects before Immortal State Warriors.
n“Lin Shuming?”
n
n
nChen Fan narrowed his eyes and examined the scholarly man.
nChen Fan found it hard to believe that this man was the most powerful man in China a hundred years ago. The energy in him suggested that he had reached only the early stage of the Immortal State, and was much weaker than the Dragon Lord and Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect. Chen Fan had expected Lin Shuming to have reached at least mid-stage of Immortal State.
n“Not even Ye Qincang was my family lord’s worthy opponent, much less you. Over the years, his honor had such gained godly power that your little tricks simply couldn’t compare”
nThe scholarly man said proudly.
n“Me and my sword will be enough to do away with you.”
nHe was not Lin Shuming?
n
n
nThe crowd was taken by surprise. They were shocked to learn that there were two Immortal State warriors in the Lin Family of Southeastern China.
nHong Sect and Dragon Hall each had one Immortal State Warrior and they were able to become a dominant power because of it. But the Lin Family had two Immortal State Warriors, if not more. No wonder they were considered the most powerful family in China. Even Ye Qincang could only force them into seclusion but couldn’t wipe them out completely.
n“Sword Bearer, you are late.” The Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect said curtly.
n“I had to get rid of a few nuisance before they started to bother my lord.” The scholarly man said lightly.
nHe had brushed off the havoc he had just wreaked. News quickly spread across the entire southeastern China: A Sword Immortal suddenly emerged from the Lin Family of Southeastern China killed two Grandmasters in a row and quickly consolidated the Lin Family’s power in the region, restoring smaller factions’ confidence in the Lin Family of Southeastern China.
n“Chen Beixuan, the Earth Level Deity’s treasure is right in there. If you swear not to ever cross the Hong Sect, Dragon Hall and Lin Family, we will let you live.”
nThe scholarly man said condescendingly.
n“Or else, we will have to teach you a lesson.”
n
n
nThe Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect hissed.
nThe tense situation scared many Overlords. They looked at Chen Fan expectantly.
nIt might have been the first time ever that three Immortal State Warriors joined forces. Chen Fan had proven his might by killing the Grand Magus God, but would he really be able to defeat three Immortal State Warriors at once?
n“Chen Beixuan is in big trouble. They have set up this trap just for him.”
n“Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect, Dragon Lord and the Sword Immortal of the Lin Family were all renowned warriors who had lived over a hundred years. Although Lin Shuming was absent, his Sword Bearer was not a pushover either.”
n“Tut, tut… you shouldn’t have forced me to my knees and killed my beloved pet snake. Karma, bitch!”
nFire Snake Lord thought to himself vengefully as his eyes lit up by anger.
n“I understand why Hong Sect and Lin Family are here since I had a run-in with both of them in the past. But I wonder what is the Dragon Hall doing here?”
nChen Fan landed his gaze on the man with the azure outfit.
n“I can’t turn down my old friend’s request.” Dragon Lord said plainly. “Plus, you are too strong for us to allow you to exist. You killed Grand Magus God, but it could have been one of the members of the Dragon Hall as well. If we don’t do away with you now, you might become another Ye Qincang.”
n“You are too strong.”
nThe man in the azure outfit had made his motivation blatantly clear.
nHe had joined his friends’ mission of killing Chen Fan because he feared that he might become the next Grand Magus God.
n
n
n“Very well.”
nChen Beixuan smiled broadly without any hint of fear. He then said: “You think the three of you can bring me down? Think again. I will let your death be a message to the rest of the world.”
nChen Fan’s words scared his listeners.
n“Nonsense.”
nAncestral Patriarch of Hong Sect flung back at him.
n“He has no idea what he is talking about.”
nDragon Lord also pulled a taut face.
n“I shall bath my sword in your blood!”
nThe scholarly man shouted and unsheathed his sword.
nSuddenly, three-plus of belligerent energy shot up into the sky and filled up the entire valley. Even the White Tiger of the Tiger God had lowered its head in fear of the deadly forces.
n“Shit, pull back!”
nMany Overlords registered danger and backed away.
n“Let’s get out of here. We will be ripped apart by rouge energy when the four of them are at each other’s throat.” Leng Jianfeng said with a solemn face.
nHuang Jin and the others were stupefied by the development. They scrambled to get out of the valley, tripping and falling a few times.
nGuo Nuannuan managed to remain calm and before she left, she cast a concerned glance at Chen Fan and asked: “Uncle Leng, do you think he will be ok?”
nLeng Jianfeng thought about it for a second and shook his head.
n“However powerful Chen Beixuan is, he is no match against the combined force of three Immortal State Warriors. Not even the most powerful man in the world could survive such powerful foes.”
nIt was clear that Leng Jianfeng’s money was not on Chen Fan.
nGuo Nuannuan was suddenly overtaken by a pang of anxiety.
nShe was a strong-minded girl with a kind heart. When Chen Fan had the advantage over his opponent, she wished someone would have slapped Chen Fan’s smug face; but when Chen Fan’s life was really in danger, she suddenly became worried for him.
n“Stay safe.”
nGuo Nuannuan looked back at Chen Fan from time to time as she started off.
n“Xiao Xue, leave with them. I will come to find you once I am done dealing with these three.”
nChen Fan said lightly.
n“Yes, master.”
nYukishiro Sa bowed and left. She was very confident in Chen Fan’s ability to win the fight.
nThe three Immortal State Warriors considered themselves above Yukishiro Sa, so they didn’t care if the girl got away for now. However, the scholarly man heaved a sigh and said: “I can see the Sword Immortal in her. What a pity, she could have been another Immortal State Cultivator.”
nEveryone knew what the scholarly man was pitying.
nMeanwhile, the three Immortal State Warriors kept on charging up their energy. As the ripple of energy got more intense, they disturbed the air and formed cyclones. The three Immortal State Warriors were at the center of the whirlwind. As the cyclones formed, they started to draw the Primordial Essence from nature and channeled them into the cyclones.
nThe three of them stood in a row, encircling Chen Fan in the middle.
nChen Fan stood still like an unwavering tower while the three Immortal State Warriors tried all they could to push and pull with the powerful waves of energy. Try as they might, the tumultuous energy couldn’t affect Chen Fan in the slightest. The current of the belligerent force seemed to have come to a halt as soon as it was near Chen Fan.
n“Chen Beixuan, you should feel honored to be the second person who has taken on three of us at once.”
nAncestral Patriarch of Hong Sect said slowly.
n“Oh?” Chen Fan linked his hands behind his back and cracked a cold smile: “I might as well finish his job for him and kill all of you today.”
nChen Fan took a step forward.
nWhile under pressure from all three sides, his life should have been hanging by a thread. No one in his situation would make an unnecessary move that could bring the ire of the three deadly warriors. However, Chen Fan had outright ignored the threat and walked forward.
n“Shit!”
nAs soon as Chen Fan landed his foot on the ground, the faces of all three Immortal State Warriors suddenly changed.
nThey registered that Chen Fan’s foot had landed right at the weakest point on the web of energy they have weaved around Chen Fan. The pressure exerted by Chen Fan threatened to tear the web apart, and forced his opponents to the defensive position.
n“We won’t hold out long. We need to stop him.”
nThe scholarly man shouted in a hurry.
n“KOM!”
nThe Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect attacked first.
nEveryone watched as a plume of white mist in the shape of a palm appeared in the sky. The palm was only a few centimeters in size, but once it quickly grew in size and became a few dozen meters in length. It was so powerful that it could crush a vehicle with ease.
n“Hand of Rolling Cloud.”
nSome of the onlookers who had recognized the move exclaimed.
nThis was the secret art of Hong Sect and had inspired other arts such as the Thousand Trickeries, and the Cloud Hand. Rumor had it that the founder of the Hong Sect had used this attack to destroy an entire mountain.
n“Sigh”
nThe man in azure outfit heaved a sigh and produced a jade flute.
nThe flute was made out of a piece of unmarred Jade stone. As the man blew into the flute, the sound waves took the corporeal forms of countless knives that shot at Chen Fan from all directions.
nThe Dragon Lord turned out to be a rare user of soundwave attacks.
nAs the sound wave carried the knives forward, cold light ran down from the bodies of the knives.
n“Clank!”
nIn the end, the scholarly man also attacked.
nThe Sword Bearer of the Lin Family unsheathed the sword backhandedly.
nSuddenly, a crack of lightning shot up into the sky and then plummeted down at Chen Fan. Even Yukishiro Sa was shocked by the intensity of the blade aura.
nThe plan to kill Chen Fan was finally set in motion.
nThe three of them attacked at once, trying to keep the battle short and deadly.
n
