The top three ranking battles everyone had been eagerly awaiting finally began.
All eyes were on the two battlefields. Two fierce clashes are about to unfold.
Among the four contenders, only three could enter the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm. Chen Fan and Si Kong had already secured their spots. Ye Kuang and Mo Xue, however, had to gamble everything, fighting without restraint for that final, coveted spot.
Its starting! Its starting!
How exciting! I feel like my heart is about to leap out!
Its not just you. I feel like I cant keep my blood pressure under control!
The crowd was ecstatic, countless spectators trembling with excitement, as though they themselves were standing in the arena, personally taking part in the battles.
Lets fight!
Inside the battlefield, Chen Fan and Si Kong faced one another, their clothes whipping in the wind.
Chen Fan looked at Si Kong, his fighting spirit surging to the clouds.
He refused to underestimate Si Kong in the slightest, as he knew that Si Kongs strength far surpassed that of Ye Kuangs. Others might be blind to the depth of his power, but Chen Fan understood it clearly.
Chen Fan had already shown his hidden cards. Early-stage Void Immortal was his true cultivation level. He wasnt hiding it any longer. That was enough for him to crush Ye Kuang, a half-immortal. Yet, against Si Kong, Chen Fan was uncertain because he still could not measure Si Kongs true depth.
It didnt matter, however. Even if defeat awaited him, Chen Fan welcomed the battle. He wanted nothing more than to fight!
Si Kong was also looking at Chen Fan. He never regarded Chen Fan as a threat. In his eyes, only Ye Kuang was barely worthy of standing against him in the finals.
That thought, however, left him feeling somewhat helpless.
No one knew his own heart better than he did. He wanted to find someone to stimulate him. His Dao was different from others, and even the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm held little appeal.
What he truly longed for was a worthy opponent, strong enough to push him beyond his shackles, to break his limits and carry him into transcendence.
In the beginning, Chen Fan was never that person. Out of the hundreds of thousands who had entered the competition, not even the half-immortal realm Ye Kuang could stir his fighting spirit. Yet, to his surprise, Ye Kuang actually fell under Chen Fans feet, and it was not just a loss, but a crushing, tragic defeat.
That was fine. More than fine. Chen Fan was stronger than Ye Kuangfar stronger. Perhaps, just perhaps, this man could force him to break free.
The thought made him feel a flicker of hope.
Fight!
Suddenly, a strong fighting intent erupted from Si Kong. It coalesced in the air, shaping itself into the blazing character for Fight, bearing down with suffocating pressure.
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes. An invisible, oppressive force swept over him, making him feel slightly suffocated.
Si Kong, so powerful!
Rumble!
Aura burst forth in waves, each ring more violent than the last, forming a terrifying storm that pressed relentlessly upon Chen Fan.
Go!
Si Kong remained motionless like a mountain. The terrifying aura that erupted from him formed a fist silhouette, surging forward with crushing might as it blasted toward Chen Fan.
Come, break!
Chen Fans eyes flickered brilliantly. Facing the punch, he was immovable like a mountain. Sword intent gathered in his palm, sword qi howling wildly as it condensed into a green lotus sword silhouette. With a roar like a raging river, it slashed forward, cleaving through the air toward Si Kongs fist.
Boom!
The fist force and the sword qi collided with a deafening roar, shattering the void itself. Endless primeval qi swept chaotically.
The two were evenly matched.
Si Kong laughed out loud. His aura became even more terrifying.
Hahahaha, good, not bad. Perhaps you really can help me break through my shackles. Now, receive this punch, Meretricious!
A storm whistled around him, its rumbling like a barrage of fists pounding the sky.
He unleashed a punch that filled the sky, birthing terrifying phenomena all around.
Chen Fans irises contracted. Just as its name implied, the dazzling visions werent the true danger. The real terror lay in the strike itself: a single punch that could smash through all illusions.
Breaking Deception! With a cold expression, Chen Fan slashed upward. His sword light pierced through the illusions, striking at the real force beneath.
Boom!
Both of them were supreme experts in martial arts. Either one of them was capable of easily defeating experts of the same level.
A terrifying collision exploded in the sky. A rolling storm swept out, flooding the entire spatial battlefield. The earth shook fiercely, cracking apart from their collision.
Boom, boom, boom!
Chen Fan charged forward, Si Kong met him head-on, and in a heartbeat, they exchanged hundreds of blows. Heavens collapsed, the earth crumbled, and the sun and moon seemed to dim under their ferocity.
The crowd couldnt keep up with their speed. All they could see was a golden streak and a green streak colliding again and again in midair.
The battle raged from sky to ground, from ground back to sky, and finally into the depths of the void itself. The space collapsed everywhere, dazzling the crowd.
Among the spectators, Tie Rushan and others who had once fought Chen Fan could only smile bitterly. At last, they truly understood the chasm that separated them from him.
When Chen Fan was fighting them, he might have used only half of his strength. It was clear from the intense collisions on the battlefield.
The crowd had fallen silent, watching the clash between the two of them with furrowed brows.
Many people were keeping quiet out of fear. Even though they were far apart, they could still feel the terrifying gap between them.
No matter if it was Chen Fan or Si Kong, neither of them was someone they could rival.
On the battlefield, Chen Fan didnt pause for a moment. Another slash tore across the sky, vanishing and reappearing before him in an instant.
His fists destroyed everything, like the most powerful weapon in the world. His punch blasted through the sky, as if it would destroy everything.
Yet Si Kong yielded nothing. Not an inch. Not a single opening.
Boom, boom, boom!
The two of them exchanged hundreds of moves in the blink of an eye. The ripples grew ever more intense as both warriors gradually unleashed their full strength, making each strike more terrifying than the last.
Some top-tier peak Void Immortal level experts revealed looks of shock. Even they felt horrified despite their strength.
Previously, they still thought that although they were inferior to Chen Fan and Si Kong, the gap shouldnt be too great. Now, the truth was undeniable. The gap was colossal, like heaven and hell.
If they occupied the first-class, Chen Fan and Si Kong were in a realm far beyond it.
This truly was a battle at the very pinnacle of power.
