Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 486 - Dueling Duan Jingtian

Dong, dong, dong...

A mellifluous, heavy, and slightly urgent bell echoed through the entire Spring Autumn Sect.

All the disciples knew that something huge was happening in the sect again. However, their faces were filled with excitement, thrill, and anticipation because they knew it was the life-and-death battle between Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian.

Duan Jingtian rose to power ten years ago, quickly establishing his might in the Spring Autumn Sect. He eventually became the number one holy disciple and created Heaven’s Alliance, effectively controlling the entire sect.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan started his ascent three years ago. His rise was as fast as lightning, surpassing even Duan Jingtian's rapid climb.

He butted heads with Heaven’s Alliance repeatedly; except for his initial setback due to his weaker cultivation, the alliance consistently ended up on the losing side.

If Duan Jingtian was a genius appearing once in fifty years, Chen Fan was a rare monster, hard to find in a hundred years.

Now, these two peak experts were about to collide like titans. How could the crowd not be excited?

“Finally, the week is up.”

“Come on, let’s go to the central battlefield. This will be a battle of epic proportions.”

“It will decide our sect’s future and our fate.”

“A fight between Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian... Just thinking about it fills me with excitement. I haven’t slept in three days and three nights.”

“Haha, that’s nothing. I didn’t sleep the entire week! Look at the bags under my eyes. To be able to witness this battle would be worth it, even if I die.”

“......”

The entire Spring Autumn Sect was boiling with excitement.

Countless disciples converged from different directions, all heading towards the central battlefield. They all looked unusually excited and thrilled.

Even the sect elders came out of their cultivation places and flew toward the central battlefield in a hurry. Their faces were similarly full of unmistakable excitement and anticipation.

“Haha, let’s go, everyone. This day has finally arrived.”

Zhong Ya and the others also kicked off the ground one after another, making their way to the central battlefield. Witnessing the battle was their sole purpose for coming to the Spring Autumn Sect.

Soon, the vast central battlefield was filled with a sea of people, becoming extremely lively.

Swish, swish, swish...

The sound of wind being sliced echoed as numerous figures arrived.

Everyone’s gazes were on fire, their hearts pumping excitedly as they awaited the arrival of Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian for the battle of the ages.

Merit Elder, Elder Liehuo, and the others gathered together.

“Red Beard, you went to Black Wind Cliff to meet Duan Jingtian, right? What did he say?”

The red-bearded grand elder said, “What else? This little beast will die today.”

“No need to worry, Merit Elder. Today, we just have to watch Duan Jingtian display his divine might and kill that little bastard Chen Fan. After this battle, the entire Spring Autumn Sect will be ours!” said Elder Liehuo.

“That’s right! Duan Jingtian is a god among us mortals. He’ll surely become a Divine Nascent realm powerhouse in the future. We old men have contributed to his cause. So, we might also have a chance to touch the Divine Nascent realm in the future.” Grand Elder Chen Muyang also chimed in.

Just as the crowd was murmuring among themselves, a boundless aura suddenly swept over, enveloping heaven and earth.

“He’s here!”

Immediately, countless eyes on the central battlefield turned in unison.

Countless followers trailed behind Duan Jingtian as he flew toward the central battlefield.

Duan Jingtian was at the very front, his clothes fluttering in the wind, looking handsome and dashing. A divine light radiated from him, like a god descending to the mortal world, compelling everyone to kneel and worship.

Not a trace of aura could be felt from him.

However, anyone who saw him felt as if their hearts were in the grasp of a large, invisible hand, making it hard to breathe.

Behind him, the alliance members released their auras to the limit, revolving their cultivation. Their auras rushed to the skies, and they were like a well-equipped army with boundless momentum, suffocating those within a five-thousand-kilometer radius.

Boom, boom, boom!

These alliance members were Duan Jingtian’s most loyal followers. At his command, they would do anything, even sacrifice themselves.

These people’s auras connected as one, stirring the winds and clouds. The rolling white clouds in the sky scattered from the impact, and the auras covered the sky.

“What shocking auras!”

The crowd’s irises shrunk when they sensed the terrifying auras of the alliance members.

Although their cultivation hadn’t reached the Core Formation realm, their auras had merged as one. It could even intimidate Core Formation realm experts.

“Is this a power play?”

Many people’s eyes flickered.

Duan Jingtian took a step forward and sliced through layers of space until he stood at the center of the battlefield. He stood like a spear piercing the sky.

Rumble!

The alliance members also descended, shaking the ground. Their intimidating aura made the nearby crowd shrink back in fear.

“The huge battle is about to begin. What is Chen Fan doing? Why is he still not here?”

“Senior Brother Duan Jingtian’s cultivation is truly deeply unfathomable. Just by standing there, he gives me a sense of boundless oppression. It’s like a god is over there, and everyone has to submit to his majesty.”

“I know, right? After a year of repentance, it feels like Senior Brother Duan Jingtian’s strength has grown even more unfathomable.”

The crowd kept sizing Duan Jingtian up, whispering among themselves. Even the esteemed elders’ gazes were on him, their eyes narrowed and bursting with brilliant light.

“As expected of Duan Jingtian. He’s sure to win this battle.” Merit Elder looked at Duan Jingtian, overwhelmed with shock.

They could no longer fathom Duan Jingtian's strength, which only meant it had grown far beyond their comprehension.

Suddenly, a shocking roar resounded, exploding through the air like thunder. The entire space trembled from this voice.

“Chen Fan is here!”

Everyone’s gazes were filled with shock as they looked up one after another.

They saw someone flitting forth like a bolt of lightning, tearing through the air. He moved so powerfully that a thunderous noise followed behind him.

Thump!

A dull thud rang out in the arena. The newcomer stood opposite Duan Jingtian. It was none other than Chen Fan.

Seeing the two standing opposite one another, everyone’s hearts pumped violently.

The protagonists of this battle have both arrived.

An unprecedented battle was about to begin!
