Chapter 143 - Battling the Corpse King
Facing a Yuanfu realm expert, Chen Fan didn’t dare to take the attack lightly.
He swiftly activated his cultivation, unleashing his godly strength in a powerful punch. The air exploded, creating aftershocks that bewildered the crowd, their vision filled with stars.
With a loud boom, the black corpse spear crumbled.
The formidable momentum carried the punch forward, landing directly on the Thousand Year Corpse King.
Zhhhhla...
The ferocious punch broke through the Thousand Year Corpse King’s protective corpse qi and violently struck its Golden-Threaded Jade Burial Suit.
Clang!
Halos burst from the suit, producing a ringing sound reminiscent of a large copper bell, blocking Chen Fan\'s punch.
This Golden-Threaded Jade Burial Suit was a rare treasure with very tough defenses.
Although the punch failed to destroy the Golden-Threaded Jade Burial Suit, the Thousand Year Corpse King was pushed back. Its sinister eyes widened in shock, staring at Chen Fan. “What martial art is this? You’re not an eighth-level Qigong. You’re a Qi Grandmaster, but your strength resembles a first-level Yuanfu expert. Who exactly are you?!”
“Hmph!”
Chen Fan harrumphed coldly, his gaze fixed on the Thousand Year Corpse King’s Golden-Threaded Jade Burial Suit.
The garment had proved its worth by blocking his full-force punch with the Myriad Elephants Divine Art—it was a treasure.
This unexpected turn of events could play into his hands. Not only could he get the Buddhist Bone Relic, but he could also obtain a rare Golden-Threaded Jade Burial Suit.
“Brat, everyone must call you a genius. Sadly, a genius will perish here today," declared the Thousand Year Corpse King with an eerie smile, revealing two fangs. “Your qi and blood are robust. It’s no wonder your combat strength is so high.
“That’s fine, too. After I kill you and suck all your life essence dry, I’ll refine you into a jiangshi general, obtaining your cultivation technique. Believe me, being my jiangshi is actually not bad.”
“Is that right?”
Chen Fan’s palm suddenly shook. A flood of primeval qi rushed out, transforming into a spear.
His aura surged and boiled, unleashing his physique’s tremendous strength, getting ready for a thrilling battle.
“A mere corpse king like you dares to bring about a calamity. I’ll thoroughly exterminate you today and return peace to Zhuxian Town!”
Chen Fan’s eyes shone. He roared and stabbed with his spear, his qi swallowing mountains and rivers.
“Die for me.”
The primeval qi spear darted through the air with a momentum that could slay immortals and exterminate demons, attacking unpredictably and with infinite profoundness.
The long spear moved through the void, appearing alien to this world and space. It seemed like an object from an unknown parallel time and place.
With the supernatural beings’ wailing, his spear flashed, reaching the corpse king’s throat.
The Thousand Year Corpse King’s protective corpse qi was as flimsy and weak as paper under the spear’s attack.
“Spirits Return!”
The Corpse King, startled, conjured a scepter with a red gem with a flip of its hand. A scorching red light shot from the gem, colliding with the spear.
The spear stabbed at the red light and immediately started dissolving.
Chen Fan stepped forward, clashing his primeval qi spear with the gemstone scepter.
A resounding clang echoed. Chen Fan didn’t move an inch but forced the Thousand Year Corpse King back, making its enveloping corpse qi explode as it stumbled.
After reforging his flesh with dragon blood and advancing to the seventh layer of the Myriad Elephants Divine Art—the Body Strengthening realm—Chen Fan could even move mountains and split seas with his physical strength.
“So strong! He actually forced the Thousand Year Corpse King back.”
“God, is he really just a Qi Grandmaster? I can’t believe this!”
“I don’t believe it either! A Qi Grandmaster shaking up a Yuanfu realm expert? You must be kidding!”
“But he is indeed enveloped in... primeval qi.”
“......”
The Thousand Year Corpse King withdrew its aura, relieving Zhu Yuanqing and the others of the heavy pressure. They retreated from the valley, witnessing Chen Fan\'s astounding battle against the Corpse King in astonishment.
They had just narrowly escaped from the gates of hell—a peril brought about by the Thousand Year Corpse King luring people to break its suppression.
If not for Chen Fan\'s interference, these people would have already been refined into ancient corpse slaves by the Thousand Year Corpse King.
Swish!
After pushing back the Thousand Year Corpse King, Chen Fan turned into a blur. His qi spear created countless afterimages, enveloping the skies and trapping the Thousand Year Corpse King.
He had executed his strongest attack like a storm—swift and fierce, trying to completely exterminate this Yuanfu realm expert quickly to prevent it from causing harm to the world.
Despite the threat, the possibility of the Corpse King escaping its confines still lingered.
Moreover, if Chen Fan obtained this Thousand Year Corpse King’s corpse core, he could very likely also become a Yuanfu realm expert.
“Ahhh, brat, you’ve really angered me, you know that? I’m furious!”
The Thousand Year Corpse King sparked from Chen Fan\'s relentless assault, saved only by the durability of its Golden-Threaded Jade Burial Suit.
“Heavenly Corpse Strike, Shattering the Universe.”
Amid Chen Fan\'s onslaught, a corpse core emerged from the Corpse King\'s brow, ablaze with primeval force flames. Transforming into a corpse light, it launched its fiercest strike at Chen Fan.
The powerful attack was before Chen Fan’s chest instantly.
Chen Fan, employing his cultivation to the limit, channeled his primeval qi to form a robust protective barrier.
That corpse qi attack landed on Chen Fan like it was smashing into a huge mountain.
Bang!
Chen Fan counterattacked with his spear and stabbed it into the Golden-Threaded Jade Burial Suit. Although he couldn’t tear it apart, the terrifying force passed through it.
“Ah!”
A miserable scream echoed as the Thousand Year Corpse King staggered, crashing heavily against the cliff wall.
Seizing the opportunity, Chen Fan gathered his berserk primeval qi. With a palm strike, he forced the Corpse King to the ground, shattering its eyes and causing cracks to spread across its body.
Pitch-black corpse blood spewed out of it as if the corpse king had been torn to pieces and was barely holding on together.
“You...”
The Thousand Year Corpse King trembled, seemingly unable to accept that a Qi Grandmaster had injured it to this extent.
“You didn’t expect this, did you? It’s not like I’ve never killed a Yuanfu realm practitioner before. If it weren’t for the tortoiseshell you’re wearing, I would have gotten rid of you long ago. You wouldn’t have lived this long. Now, I’ll be sending you on your way,” Chen Fan declared as he rushed forward.
Throwing out another palm strike, he struck the Thousand Year Corpse King’s head. Its body immediately exploded, and a white bone corpse core came flying out.
