Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 853 - Heavenly Circulation Palace

Chen Fan drew the attention of many experts, yet he stood quietly, holding Xuan Shitong in his arms, waiting for Wang Shuang to emerge.

He had long since sensed Wang Shuang’s talent. Chen Fan knew overcoming the Thousand Battles Demon Cave would be only a matter of time for him.

Soon after, Wang Shuang and Huang Ziyun appeared simultaneously.

As Huang Ziyun spotted Chen Fan and Xuan Shitong, he noticed her weakened aura and the blood at her mouth. He immediately thought of something and laughed out loud.

“Hahahaha, Wang Shuang, I was curious about your friends, but they couldn't even handle the Thousand Battles Demon Cave. They are indeed worthy of being your friends.”

Huang Ziyun saw Xuan Shitong’s injuries and assumed that they had both failed, having been blasted out.

When Wang Shuang saw them, a light flashed in his eyes.

Xuan Shitong was injured; anyone could tell that she had failed to clear the cave.

But Chen Fan stood casually, as if unaffected. It looked like he hadn’t even entered the cave, so Wang Shuang wondered if he hadn’t passed either.

Though Chen Fan had swiftly conquered the first three caves, shocking Wang Shuang, the Thousand Battles Demon Cave demanded actual combat strength, and Chen Fan, at the eighth-level Heavenly Star realm, might struggle.

Suddenly, Wang Shuang thought of someone—Ye Zimo, and his heart skipped a beat.

Ye Zimo was a peak Heavenly Star realm expert who thought Chen Fan was easy to bully. However, Chen Fan had sent him flying with a slap. With such strength, Wang Shuang did not believe Chen Fan had failed to overcome the Thousand Battles Demon Cave.

There was only one conclusion: Chen Fan had passed with lightning speed, just as he had with the first three demon caves. That’s why he was waiting for them.

A bitter smile appeared on Wang Shuang’s face.

He had planned to compete with Chen Fan in the Thousand Battles Demon Cave, but now he realized how naïve that had been.

The crowd’s gaze toward Chen Fan confirmed it, especially since they looked at Huang Ziyun as if they were looking at a clown. Chen Fan had undoubtedly passed.

Seeing the bitter smile on Wang Shuang’s face, Huang Ziyun immediately assumed that it was an embarrassed smile from his mockery. He became even more unbridled and savage, mocking Chen Fan arrogantly.

Unable to watch any longer, the guard expert intervened, “Enough. He took only nine breaths’ time to pass the Thousand Battles Demon Cave, while you took an entire incense stick. I don’t know where you get the nerve to mock him!"

Huang Ziyun, who had been mocking so freely, suddenly turned red, as if someone had grabbed his neck.

“Hahahaha, my god, this is too funny. I’ve never seen such a clown before. Someone who took an incense stick to pass is mocking a genius who did it in nine breaths? Where does he get his confidence?"

“Where? From the Huang Clan, of course. He’s their young patriarch!"

“Haha, my stomach hurts from laughing. This is the funniest thing in the world.”

“......”

The nearby crowd couldn’t hold it in any longer and burst out in laughter, their faces filled with mockery.

Huang Ziyun, overwhelmed with embarrassment, wished he could vanish into the ground.

He had ridiculed Chen Fan and Wang Shuang without restraint, yet Chen Fan remained silent, watching him act like a fool the whole time.

Thinking of this, Huang Ziyun nearly spewed out a mouthful of blood and ran away with his tail between his legs.

Wang Shuang walked over and gave Chen Fan a thumbs up. “Brother Chen, I surrender. I wanted to compete with you in this final cave. Looks like I just overestimated myself. Nine breaths? My goodness! Brother Chen, I’m sure you will shine brightly at this Demonic Child Selection Battle, and even obtain one of the ten spots.”

The Demonic Child Selection Battle was a fierce competition, where only ten candidates would be chosen from thousands of geniuses.

For reference, many of the young geniuses who came to take part in the Demonic Child Selection Battle were half-step Manifestation realm experts. Many of them had even suppressed their cultivation to break through just before the battle, boosting their chances of securing a spot.

Historically, the ten demonic child candidates were all first-level Manifestation realm experts. Half-step Manifestation realm demonic cultivators were only there to make up the numbers and serve as a foil.

However, if that were all, it wouldn’t be enough to draw people scrambling for something so unattainable. After all, there were only ten spots, and everyone knew whether they stood a chance or not.

The real draw was that the Demonic Child Selection Battle wasn’t just about arena matches. Participants would enter the Sky Suspended Secret realm, a place filled with treasures.

Even if they could not obtain a spot, obtaining treasures within the secret realm to boost their cultivation was a worthy prize.

“My cultivation is nothing to boast about. There are more than millions of geniuses in this world. I’ll just try my best,” Chen Fan said with a smile.

“Alright, let’s not talk about this. It's a blessing of three lifetimes for me to have a friend like Brother Chen. We must go celebrate. Come, let’s go to the Heavenly Circulation Palace to celebrate,” Wang Shuang said, his smile showing his open-hearted nature.

Evidently, Xuan Shitong knew of it and said with anticipation, “That’s the number one restaurant in the Ping Shan Demonic Island. I heard nothing’s cheap there, and ordinary people aren’t even allowed inside.”

“Haha, that’s true, but I can still treat you. Let’s go,” Wang Shuang replied, smiling.

Chen Fan did not decline it. Thus, the trio shuttled through the street. After walking for close to an hour, they arrived in front of a white palace.

This white palace had a total of nine floors, each one progressively narrower than the last, resembling a pagoda. It occupied an enormous space, its grandeur impossible to ignore.

On the eaves of the palace’s ninth floor, three large characters were engraved: Heavenly Circulation Palace, giving off a majestic atmosphere.

“Heavenly Circulation Palace indeed. It’s truly a palace. I’m afraid Brother Wang will have to spend a fortune,” Chen Fan said.

Just standing outside and gazing at the Heavenly Circulation Palace made it clear that it was no ordinary establishment. It was a place far beyond the reach of common folk.

“Haha, it’s fine.” Wang Shuang laughed and said, “On the Ping Shan Demonic Island, aside from the Sky Suspended Demon Palace, the Heavenly Circulation Palace is the most notable place. Only experts below fifty years of age and at the seventh-level Heavenly Star realm or above are allowed inside. Anyone who doesn’t meet these conditions isn’t even allowed to step inside.”

Chen Fan was left speechless. That was indeed a strict rule.
