Fate-Defying Demon Emperor-Chapter 291 - 278: Holy Fire Burns the Supreme

Su Han couldn't hope to face any of them head-on—not Ye Chuanfeng, Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign, Toad Poison Venerable, Seven Injuries Devil Honorable, Qin Wushuang, or Xuan Song. Even with the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda, he was no match for them.

Yet even in this desperate situation, Su Han's expression remained unchanged. He showed no fear or panic; instead, his face filled with a chilling, overt killing intent.

"Su Han, you actually dared to ambush Miss Zi Qiong! Such audacity! Your crimes are unforgivable. Surrender at once and come with me to face the Tian Lou Saint!" Ye Chuanfeng boomed. He took a single step forward, and his Supreme Might crashed down upon Su Han like a mountain and a sea. Simultaneously, starlight surged like a tide, forming a nine-thousand-meter Domain that enveloped the surroundings. It sealed the space, leaving Su Han no chance of escape.

"Why waste words with such sanctimonious drivel?" Su Han sneered, fearlessly facing Ye Chuanfeng's Supreme Might. "Your arrival is perfect. It saves me the trouble of hunting you down one by one." These so-called paragons looked down from their high horses, believing they could dictate the lives and deaths of others, yet they were oblivious to their own heinous crimes.

All six of them had a great vendetta against him. Since there was no escape today, Su Han decided to burn his boats.

WHOOSH!

Reaching out, Su Han summoned a piece of Purple Jade into his hand. A pure Holy Might radiated from it, distorting space and shaking the world in all directions. It was the Holy Level Purple Jade that Su Han had taken from Zi Qiong's Storage Ring.

"Not good! It's the Purple Flame Holy Jade!" Xuan Song, being the most knowledgeable, immediately recognized the jade's origin. His pupils contracted as he hastily retreated.

This was a Purple Jade personally condensed by a Saint, containing a single strike powerful enough to shatter heaven and earth. How could anyone withstand it?

Although Ye Chuanfeng, Qin Wushuang, and the others didn't recognize the Purple Jade, the pure Holy Might made their hearts pound as a sense of overwhelming crisis washed over them. They never imagined that Su Han possessed such a formidable weapon.

In an instant, they all deployed their Domains and hurriedly fell back. Yet, they didn't dare to retreat too far, fearing that Su Han was just bluffing and would use the opportunity to flee.

Unfortunately, they had underestimated Su Han's lethal resolve. He took out the Purple Flame Holy Jade and activated it with the Secret of the Soldier Character without a moment's hesitation. A dazzling, brilliant purple light erupted from the jade, illuminating everything around them.

"Die!" Su Han's face was expressionless as he hurled the Purple Flame Holy Jade. Immediately, a cluster of pure, brilliant purple flame surged from the jade. It was so hot that it twisted the very air it burned through. The temperature of the world soared, as if it had suddenly become the height of a scorching summer.

It was not just one cluster of purple flame, but ninety-nine. In an instant, they merged into a vast, terrifying sea of fire.

This flame, condensed by a Saint, possessed a terrifying might that even a Domain could not withstand. Qin Wushuang's Heavenly Gang Wind Domain failed to extinguish the Purple Flame; instead, the domain itself was ignited, and a giant hole was swiftly burned through it.

Even Ye Chuanfeng and Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign, both at the Supreme Realm Ninth Layer, could not resist it. Their faces turned pale as they gritted their teeth, exerting all their strength to fend off the sea of purple flames.

The sea of fire blotted out the sky, its heat scorching the world. The clouds above evaporated into nothingness. The grass and trees on the ground rapidly withered and blackened. Even the ruins of the small city beneath Su Han's feet were seared into barren earth, leaving not a single trace of blood.

Although Su Han was the one who had unleashed the attack and wasn't directly facing the sea of purple flames, the residual heat alone was enough to make his skin crack and turn fiery red, as if he had been scalded. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Nine Palace Golden Pagoda!" Su Han didn't dare to be careless. He used the Secret of the Soldier Character to manipulate the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda, using its Holy Might to resist the terrifying heat.

"No, save me!" a scream of utter terror erupted from Toad Poison Venerable. His Domain had been incinerated by the Purple Flame, and the surrounding space warped and shattered, preventing him from using Teleportation to escape. The surging Purple Flame brought with it the undeniable threat of death.

Unfortunately, the others were struggling to save themselves, let alone rescue him.

"Myriad Poison Outburst!" Seeing the Purple Flame nearly upon him, Toad Poison Venerable's eyes filled with despair. Unwilling to perish so easily, he gambled everything on a final, desperate attack.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The pustules covering his body burst open, spewing streams of black venom. The streams converged into a river of poison, which he hoped would block the incinerating Purple Flame.

But this Purple Flame came from a Saint's hand and was saturated with intense Holy Might. It was not something a Supreme Realm expert could withstand.

SIZZLE!

The instant the river of poison touched the Purple Flame, it sizzled violently and was rapidly consumed, turning into black smoke that dissipated. The Purple Flame merely dimmed slightly before continuing its undeterred flight toward Toad Poison Venerable.

"I don't want to die! I still have three hundred years of life left! I can't die here!" Toad Poison Venerable's pupils shrank, and his Dao Heart shattered. He frantically employed every means at his disposal: Spatial Force, Supreme Grade Dao Artifacts, and all manner of Talismans and spiritual waters.

But no matter how he struggled or resisted, he could not stop the Purple Flame. Everything it touched was instantly burned to ashes and obliterated.

Finally, before Toad Poison Venerable's terrified and despairing eyes, the Purple Flame landed on his body. In an instant, he was completely enveloped and rapidly incinerated.

"AHHH! SOMEONE SAVE ME!" Toad Poison Venerable let out a final, bloodcurdling scream that could make one's scalp tingle.

But his scream quickly weakened and then vanished completely. His body was burned to ash by the Purple Flame, leaving nothing behind—not even his Storage Ring survived the blaze.

Toad Poison Venerable was dead.

Witnessing this, the pupils of both Seven Injuries Devil Honorable and Qin Wushuang constricted in horror. Their strength was comparable to Toad Poison Venerable's. If he was burned to ash by the Purple Flame, they wouldn't be able to withstand it either.

"Get behind me! We'll block it together!" Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign's face was ashen as he shouted the command. He couldn't let Seven Injuries Devil Honorable and Qin Wushuang die here too.

The three of them immediately joined forces. They expanded their Domains and unleashed a dense torrent of Earth Fiend energy, struggling to hold back the sea of purple flames.

Although Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign was strong, the Purple Flame was, after all, a Saint's technique. Even with the three of them combined, they were in dire peril and suffered heavy injuries. But ultimately, they did not follow Toad Poison Venerable's fate and managed to preserve their lives.

On the other side, Ye Chuanfeng wielded his Seven Stars Sword and resisted with all his might, but he was still grievously wounded by the Purple Flame. He was scorched black from head to toe and had nearly died on the spot.

Surprisingly, it was Xuan Song who emerged unscathed. Though his Realm was the lowest, he possessed a treasure bestowed by a Saint and successfully blocked the Purple Flame.

What a pity! Seeing the Purple Flame gradually die down, and that Ye Chuanfeng and the others were only heavily injured instead of being burned to death like Toad Poison Venerable, Su Han felt a tinge of regret. He knew he had to leave now. If he waited until the flames were completely extinguished, he wouldn't be able to get away.

WHOOSH!

Su Han immediately controlled the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda and activated the Character Technique of Motion. He transformed into a streak of golden light and sped away.

Ye Chuanfeng and the others were too heavily injured to pursue, but Xuan Song was perfectly unharmed. He shot off in pursuit alone, his voice ringing out, "By order of the Saint Heir, I will hunt you to the ends of the earth!"
