Chapter 1164 - Terrifying Lineup
"Xue Yin, Wang Zhong, didn't you want to lure me into a trap? I, Chen Fan, have come!"
The very air trembled as Chen Fan's thunderous voice echoed across the sky.
In the next moment, he arrived at the blind valley.
"Hahahaha, Chen Fan, you finally walked into our trap!" Xue Yin laughed out loud.
Although Chen Fan's aura was powerful, Xue Yin wasn't worried.
To kill Chen Fan, they had made the most thorough of preparations. With a lineup equivalent to five Lesser Legendary realm experts, even if he possessed heavenly capabilities, he would meet his end here today.
"Walk into your trap?" Chen Fan smiled coldly and said, "You overestimate yourselves!"
His gaze swept toward the blind valley. Seeing Yan Weiyi and the others were fine, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
"You shouldn't have come, Little Junior Brother. You're their real target!"
Yan Weiyi and the rest ceased maintaining the grand formation as soon as they saw him.
Chen Fan smiled and said, "No need to worry, Senior Brothers and Sister. Since I dared to come, I fear nothing! They dared to plot against me, so death is all they'll find."
Xue Yin, Wang Zhong, and the others' expressions became very ugly.
"Shameless boasting!"
Chen Fan's arrogance seemed to have crossed the line.
Wang Zhong said coldly, "Chen Fan, you clearly don't grasp your situation. Xia Hou and I have already stepped into the Legendary realm. And Xue Yin, Mo Yue, and Lu Zhuo... their power is no less than ours. Today, five experts at the Legendary level stand united to kill you. Even if you have three heads and six arms, you will die!"
"Are you done talking?" Chen Fan looked at Wang Zhong indifferently and said, "I already knew all that."
"Hmm?" Wang Zhong and the others' expressions changed, wondering if there was a traitor on their side.
But when Shen Tianhao didn't show up, they quickly understood.
"You killed Shen Tianhao?"
"Hoho." Chen Fan chuckled coldly; his silence said everything.
Their expressions darkened further. Not that Shen Tianhao's life mattered to them, but it confirmed that Chen Fan already knew the strength of their lineup.
Wang Zhong said, "So, even knowing what you're walking into, you still came? I have to admit, you have guts. It seems like we didn't miscalculate. Yan Weiyi and the others really were the perfect bait."
"Someone who already lost to me dares talk about trapping me? With just you five losers? Are you worthy?"
"Arrogance!"
"You're courting death!"
Xue Yin and the others were enraged.
He knew how strong they were; Shen Tianhao had told him. And yet he dared to mock them? Their fury nearly boiled over.
Xia Hou also said coldly, "Hmph, Chen Fan, don't think history will repeat itself today. You have no idea what it means to truly become a Legend."
The Legendary realm wasn't just about raw power—it meant transformation on every level. A complete evolution. The difference between those who had stepped into it and those who hadn't was like heaven and earth.
That was why it was said: all below the Legendary realm were but ants.
Chen Fan's combat strength had reached the level of a Legend. However, Xia Hou had truly crossed that threshold. He was certain that if they fought again, history would not repeat itself.
This was the basis for his confidence!
Of course, Chen Fan also understood this point.
Even though he had killed a genuine Lesser Legendary realm expert, Jin Kun, before, there was no comparison between Jin Kun and peerless talents like Xia Hou or Wang Zhong.
As peerless prides of heaven, those two underwent a true metamorphosis upon stepping into the Legendary realm. Their combat strength had skyrocketed. Crushing someone like Jin Kun would now take them no more than a flick of the hand.
But so what?
When was the last time he, Chen Fan, lost a battle? The thought that someone like Wang Zhong could take him down just because he broke through was laughable.
Suddenly, several wind-breaking noises came from all directions.
Swish, swish, swish.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
Figures began pouring in from every side.
They came from all across the Tianwu Continent: disciples of major sects, rogue cultivators, members of the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect, and even forces from the foreign continents.
The Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces' "Operation Nip in the Bud" mainly targeted the elites of the various major forces of the Tianwu Continent. Rogue cultivators weren't their focus and had escaped with minimal losses.
And those rogue cultivators, knowing just how terrifying they were, had wisely stayed on the sidelines.
Now, having caught wind of something big...
Xue Yin, Wang Zhong, and the others had laid down an inescapable net of heaven and earth to kill Chen Fan. How could they miss such a spectacular show?
Xue Yin laughed coldly and said, "Hoho, you see this, Chen Fan? To kill you, we leaked word of this place. The world should watch your fall. You should feel honored."
Holding the Holy Spear of the Sun, an overwhelming aura surged from Chen Fan. The primeval qi in heaven and earth boiled and surged, and the light of law flickered wildly.
Raising the Holy Spear of the Sun in his hand, Chen Fan's domineering voice resounded through the universe.
"Cut the nonsense. Come, show me what five so-called Legends can do together. Just don't disappoint me!"
"Good, good, good, as expected of the madman Chen Fan. You still dare to act so arrogantly when death is near. Fine, fine, it's time to send you on your way."
Suddenly, earth-shattering auras surged out violently from Xue Yin, Wang Zhong, and the others.
"What? Legends, they're Legends! Wang Zhong and Xia Hou have already stepped into the Legendary realm. How is this possible? But I thought Legends couldn't enter the core area?"
"Hmph, they were already one foot into the realm. They must've broken through after entering, which is still within the rules."
"It's not just the two of them. The Blood Heavenly Demon Sect's Xue Yin, Mo Yue, and Lu Zhao's auras are also incredibly terrifying, no weaker than Wang Zhong and Xia Hou's. They haven't even advanced into Legends, and they've already mastered a hundred and ten to a hundred and twenty law threads. My god, this is unbelievable!"
"Even though the three of them have yet to become Legends, they're just as strong. So in essence... Chen Fan is facing five Legends. No wonder they dared to pull off Operation Nip in the Bud. They've got the power to back it."
"Can Chen Fan really survive this?"
"I doubt it. Strong as he is, five Legends? That's suicide."
"Don't jinx it! If Chen Fan falls, none of us are getting out of here alive!"
