Blood dripped and flowed, flesh tore, bones shattered.
This was Chen Fan's current state, utterly pathetic.
"Roar."
This roar was like the final struggle before death.
Chen Fan's aura was vanishing.
The combined oppression of over a dozen supreme demonic beasts was not only destroying Chen Fan's physical body but also his soul.
"City Lord..."
Fire Demon and Spirit Dragon were extremely anxious.
In the city, the Qin family army's eyes were bloodshot.
"City Lord."
"City Lord..."
Everyone who sensed Chen Fan's state cried out in alarm, their worry tinged with sadness.
"Sob, Mister..." A Shi was weeping.
He wasn't the only one crying; many were.
But more people were filled with despair.
They didn't cry, only despaired.
It was over.
With the City Lord dead, Wenlan City would surely be massacred.
Despair was spreading.
...
Above the firmament, Chen Fan's aura had completely dissipated.
Even in death, his spine remained ramrod straight, standing like a god of war.
Death could not bend that dragon-like spine.
"Hmph."
The great snake snorted, unresatisfied.
Forget it, he was dead.
However, this physical body was a good thing. Whether human or demonic beast, a supreme-level physical body was a treasure.
The great snake stepped forward, intending to claim this supreme treasure body.
"Swish."
The demonic bird moved with extreme speed, charging forward instantly.
It had fought Chen Fan before and knew that Chen Fan's treasures were not limited to his physical body; he possessed other treasures.
"Presumptuous."
The great snake was furious, "Get lost."
Its tail ripped through the air, and with a 'bang', it sent the demonic bird flying.
"Hmph."
The demonic bird scattered blood, its feathers flying.
It was injured, heavily wounded by the great snake.
Yet, it was defiant, roaring, "Who do you think you are? Do you really think you're the boss?"
"Split."
The demonic bird directly activated its domain of laws.
Kill.
Kill those who refused to submit.
"Bang bang bang."
The great snake and the demonic bird engaged in a fierce battle.
They fought madly over a supreme treasure body.
"Moo."
The bull demon supreme, who had previously fought with Old Devil Chu, launched a surprise attack while the great snake and the demonic bird were fighting.
It also desired that physical body.
"Get lost."
The demonic bird and the great snake attacked simultaneously, swatting the bull-headed supreme away.
"Snatch."
From behind, more supreme demonic beasts attacked.
Chaos ensued.
The scene of massacre had not yet begun, and the group of demonic beast supremes had already descended into disarray.
All for Chen Fan's physical body, for the treasures on him.
"Rumble."
The sounds of battle reverberated intensely.
Repeated collisions caused the void to crackle, the entire firmament seemed to explode.
At this moment, the great snake's oppressive power was useless.
While it was the strongest among the supremes, it was not so overwhelmingly powerful that no one could contend with it.
If one was not enough, then two. If two were not enough, then three.
The great snake was being suppressed.
"Haha."
A massive white ape burst out from the battlefield.
It was covered in blood, like a brutal god of slaughter.
"Haha, the treasure is mine, and the body is mine too." The white ape laughed maniacally.
Laws manifested, the white ape's laws appeared, towering to the heavens. Its massive hands tore open the firmament, and then it reached for the physical body.
"Buzz."
However, Chen Fan's physical body remained motionless.
Under the domain of gravity, it seemed rooted in the void, unmovable by anyone.
"Still residual power?"
The white ape was surprised, then ecstatic, "As expected of a supreme body. Its blood energy is so rich. Consuming it will allow me to take a significant step further on the path to the supreme realm, haha."
The other supreme demonic beasts also sensed it.
They sensed the preciousness of this physical body and the aura of treasure emanating from Chen Fan.
"Indeed a treasure body."
All the supremes were extremely excited.
The great battle continued, killing intent boiling.
With each collision, the battlefield drew closer and closer to Chen Fan.
"Bang."
The great snake was the primary target of the other supreme demonic beasts.
Being the strongest naturally meant being targeted.
The great snake was knocked out of the battlefield, flying away.
"Kill."
Closer and closer.
They were getting closer and closer...
In the distance, Spirit Dragon and Fire Demon were also trying to break into the battlefield.
With the City Lord dead, they did not want his physical body to be seized and consumed by these beasts.
Unfortunately, with their strength, they could not get close.
"Bang bang bang."
"Get lost."
They were blasted away repeatedly, "Dare to approach again, and you'll be killed."
They had no time to deal with these two small bugs now.
Obtaining Chen Fan's physical body was the most important thing.
"Go."
Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in the minds of Fire Demon and Spirit Dragon.
"Huh?"
The two paused simultaneously, then exchanged glances.
Immediately after, they saw the ecstatic joy in each other's eyes.
It was the City Lord's voice.
The City Lord was not dead.
He told them to leave.
"Could it be..."
Although difficult to believe, the two thought of something.
A trap.
The City Lord's demise was a trap.
"Retreat."
The two instantly retreated.
...
The group of supreme demonic beasts who were fighting did not think much of it.
It was good that they left, those two bothersome little bugs.
Shick.
One by one, claws, palms, tails... all coiled towards the lifeless physical body.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis emerged.
Except for the great snake that had been knocked out of the battlefield, all other supreme demonic beasts felt a chilling fear from the bottom of their hearts.
Where did this crisis come from?
The prickling sensation of their hair standing on end made the group of supreme demonic beasts feel something was amiss.
Just as they thought this, they saw a terrifying sight.
The human physical body, which had previously lost all signs of life, actually opened its eyes.
"Not dead?"
Several supreme demonic beasts were stunned.
Immediately after, Chen Fan spoke, "Did you really think I was standing here to be killed by you?"
His laughter was filled with contempt.
"A trap."
All the supreme demonic beasts realized it.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
"Buzz."
An ancient garment appeared.
The Golden Silk Cicada Robe, appearing in its complete form before the world for the first time.
"Supreme Treasure."
Instantly, all the demonic beasts felt the aura of the Golden Silk Cicada Robe.
That aura, while terrifying, also carried an ancient and majestic presence.
This was not the end...
A dirt-yellow bead appeared.
The Gravity Treasure Bead.
The Dragon-Patterned Compass appeared.
The Heavenly Cloud Sword appeared.
The Four Divine Artifacts hovered in the air, their auras shaking heaven and earth.
A harmonious flow of energy circulated, and it seemed as if this realm was sealed.
The Four Divine Artifacts, originally unrelated, now flowed with a common origin, and then instantly converged.
"Buzz."
In an instant, an aura of world-ending destruction erupted.
Truly world-ending, surpassing the limits that even supremes could reach.
It was terrifying.
A great terror was erupting here.
"Kill."
In Chen Fan's eyes, killing intent surged, "Did you really think I, Chen Fan, was made of mud?"
Killing intent filled the sky and earth.
"Boom."
A celestial light streaked across the sky, descending from above.
The bull-headed supreme bore the brunt of it.
Under the divine celestial light, the supreme demonic beasts had no ability to resist, their souls instantly annihilated.
Shick, shick, shick.
The celestial light was not a single beam, but many.
Dozens of them.
