Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 170 - Emerging in Succession

Whizz, whizz whizz...

The ice crystal spear tore through the air, producing a mournful whistle as it headed straight toward Chen Fan’s brow.

If it struck Chen Fan, he would die on the spot even if his head were made of iron.

“You’re courting death!” A thunderous roar rang out.

A figure rose to the sky with a rumble and swiftly traversed a hundred meters in the blink of an eye. It was Chen Zhengqing, emerging after half a month of secluded cultivation. free(w)ebnovel

However, the location of his seclusion was a thousand meters away from the square. He couldn’t make it in time to save Chen Fan.

Chen Fan was about to be punctured by the spear, and even he began mentally preparing for death. Suddenly, the small golden person in Chen Fan’s brow made a move.

Radiant light enveloped it, infusing Chen Fan with a powerful surge that instantly alleviated half of his injuries.

Chen Fan rolled to the side at the last moment.

Boom tch!

The ice crystal spear pierced the square's ground, scattering debris in all directions. Some fragments struck Chen Fan, causing another wound, though not a fatal one.

“Damn it!”

Chen Fan had dodged Lin Zong’s killing blow, making him furious. He clenched his fist again, condensed another ice crystal spear, and shot it toward Chen Fan.

“You’re courting death!”

Thankfully, Chen Zhengqing was already in the sky above the Chen Clan mansion’s main gates.

With a decisive gesture, he summoned a scorching qi current that materialized into a fiery needle ablaze with fierce flames and sent it hurtling toward Lin Zong.

Sensing the imminent threat, Lin Zong, alarmed, redirected the spear meant for Chen Fan to intercept the incoming fiery needle.

Boom tch!

The clash between extreme cold and intense heat caused an explosion, unleashing a formidable wave of qi that forced even Lin Zong to retreat.

Tap!

Chen Zhengqing crossed tens of meters with a step, descending in front of Chen Fan. He said, “How are you feeling, Xiaofan?”

“I’m fine, Father. Is your cultivation restored?” Chen Fan asked, noting the powerful primeval force emanating from Chen Zhengqing.

“That’s right. Thanks to your Buddhist Bone Relic, my shattered primeval vessel has fused back together, and my cultivation... is restored!”

Chen Zhengqing was trying his best to suppress the excitement in his voice.

After almost seventeen years, he finally had his cultivation back.

He had nearly given up after someone had broken his primeval vessel; now, he could see hope again.

The power surging inside him made the excitement in his heart overflow through his voice and movements.

“This is great, Father, this is great!” Chen Fan said excitedly.

“That is... Chen Zhengqing!”

The sudden change in the situation shocked the onlooking crowd.

When they sensed the pressure emanating from Chen Zhengqing, it was like they had seen a ghost.

“How is this possible? Wasn’t Chen Zhengqing a Qi Grandmaster? It’s only been twenty days. How did he become a Yuanfu realm powerhouse, not to mention being about as strong as that goatee elder!”

“I heard that Chen Zhengqing was a genius of the Chen Clan about seventeen or eighteen years ago and was the first Yuanfu realm expert of the clan. He was wandering around the Great Chu Empire, and something happened at that time. When he returned to his clan, his cultivation level had fallen to the Qi Grandmaster realm, and he was riddled with hidden injuries. It seemed he had gotten into a huge battle, and someone shattered his primeval vessel.”

“That’s right. The Chen Clan has been searching for elixirs to restore Chen Zhengqing’s cultivation level all these years. Could it be that they really found it?”

“......”

“Move aside, Xiaofan. These people are so bold to come to my Chen Clan and behave so atrociously, killing our clansmen. I won’t let them go. Today, I’ll use their fresh blood to celebrate the restoration of my cultivation!”

As his voice fell, a violent gale swept out with Chen Zhengqing at the center. Lin Zong’s pupils shrank, and his heart beat like a drum.

The revelation of a third-level Yuanfu realm powerhouse within the Chen Clan took Lin Zong completely by surprise.

From the crowd’s whispers and the conversation between Chen Fan and Chen Zhengqing, he learned that Chen Zhengqing had already advanced to the Yuanfu realm over a decade ago. Something had happened that caused his cultivation to regress. Now, having recovered with the help of a Buddhist Bone Relic, he stood as a formidable force.

“I don’t care who you are. You dare kill our Chen Clan’s people. Today, all of you can forget about leaving!”

Chen Zhengqing’s voice was cold and carried his icy killing intent, sweeping through the square. Everyone’s hearts shook.

“Kill!”

With that command, Chen Zhengqing's figure blurred, his primeval force morphing into a fiery blade that slashed fiercely at Lin Zong.

Layers of blade qi streaked through the air, the scorching temperature twisting the space.

“Hmph, thinking of competing with me when your cultivation has just recovered? You’re a little too green!” Simultaneously, an ice crystal spear materialized in Lin Zong's hand.

It violently collided with Chen Zhengqing's attack, rupturing the air and triggering multiple explosions.

Bang, bang, bang...

Chen Zhengqing and Lin Zong exchanged over fifty moves in just one breath of time. A tidal wave of qi surged, creating a chaotic symphony of explosions that echoed through the square.

Rumble!

The fiery blade clashed with the ice crystal spear again, resulting in a central explosion propelling both backward.

“You’re nothing much, old fellow!” Chen Zhengqing pointed his fiery blade at Lin Zong, expressing disdain.

Lin Zong glared at Chen Zhengqing with a gloomy and ugly expression.

The current situation had spiraled out of his expectations, slipping beyond his control.

Chen Zhengqing, having just restored his cultivation, could already contend with him evenly. If Chen Zhengqing adapted further to his regained strength, Lin Zong would likely be disadvantaged.

“Hahahaha, good! I didn’t expect to have a breakthrough one day. Primeval vessel, form!”

Just as Lin Zong was about to speak up, a wave of laughter rang out from the depths of the Chen Clan mansion.

Subsequently, the onlookers witnessed the primeval qi of heaven and earth violently converging toward a particular spot. A primeval vessel, radiant with resplendent light, ascended from the mansion's depths.

“That is... a primeval vessel!”

“Heavens, that voice earlier seems to be Chen Tianxiong. He... did he break through to the Yuanfu realm?”

Everyone’s gazes froze, their hearts shaken.

Boom!

A silhouette shot out from the Chen Clan mansion and stood proudly in the air. The primeval vessel above emitted a dazzling light, captivating everyone's attention.

“Indeed! It is Chen Tianxiong!”

“Chen Tianxiong broke through to the Yuanfu realm!”

The onlooking crowd broke into a commotion.

It turned out Chen Zhengqing and Chen Tianxiong hadn’t shown up before because they were both in secluded cultivation.

Chen Zhengqing was recovering from his injuries and restoring his cultivation.

As for Chen Tianxiong, he was preparing to break through to the Yuanfu realm.

Now, the two of them have emerged from secluded cultivation in succession.
