Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1091 - Death Seal of Judgment

Suddenly, Cao Guang said, “I’m sorry, our Battle Saint Palace is not interested in this. We’ll be taking our leave first!”

In an instant, the others looked at him in disbelief, wondering why he was backing out now.

Still, they felt a flicker of joy.

With Cao Guang gone, there'd be fewer to share the Red Spider Lilies with—meaning a bigger slice for the rest.

Cao Guang was decisive. After deciding to leave, he did not hesitate. He turned and left, taking the last two experts of the Battle Saint Palace with him, without looking back.

Chen Fan watched as Cao Guang left with his people. His eyes flickered for a moment, but he didn’t stop them.

Cao Guang wasn’t a weakling. Even in his current, weakened state, he’d be deadly if he fought with everything he had. Letting him walk away meant one less threat to deal with.

High up in the sky, the two experts of the Battle Saint Palace asked in confusion, “We’re really letting Chen Fan go? That’s more than twenty Red Spider Lilies!”

“So what? Twenty, two hundred, or even two thousand doesn’t matter.” Cao Guang sneered coldly, “You have to be alive to enjoy them.”

“But we’ve got the numbers. No matter how strong he is, Chen Fan’s just one man.”

“And is he stupid? Since he dared to challenge us, he must be confident in his odds! Sure, if we were at full strength, we wouldn’t fear him. But to force our way out of Yellow Spring Lake, we had to take heavy losses. We’re down to barely fifty or sixty percent of our power.

“Chen Fan didn’t become famous across the Tianwu Continent by being mediocre. Even if we joined forces, I’m afraid we won’t be a match for him.” The light of wisdom flashed in Cao Guang’s eyes.

Although he had a burly figure and looked uncouth, he was anything but dull; he was sharp-minded and calculating beneath the surface.

“Huo Qi, Beishan Xue, Fu Buping, and the others all have past feuds with Chen Fan. As for Bai Yang, that idiot let greed get to his head. Looks like even the horrors of the Yellow Spring Lake didn’t knock sense into him.”

The two experts beside Cao Guang were immediately at a loss for words.

They may not have liked Chen Fan, but they didn’t think he was reckless or dumb. Since he was standing alone against them now, it could only mean one thing: he had absolute confidence in his strength.

They’d heard the stories too—how he’d fought above his level and advanced at incredible speed. His power must have soared.

Thinking of this, cold sweat poured out from the two’s foreheads.

Right, Chen Fan is no idiot. Of course, he must have something to rely on to act like that.

“I’m sure you’ve heard of Chen Fan’s past exploits. He is monstrously talented and extraordinary. He’s escaped pursuit from top-tier powerhouses multiple times and only kept growing stronger. If he dared wait for us, he must be certain of his strength. We've already lost most of our experts because of our earlier greed. Was that lesson not enough?” Cao Guang said.

They were all from the older generation compared to Chen Fan, once peerless talents themselves, having clawed their way to the top through relentless survival, all with hopes of reaching the Legendary realm.

However, due to their greed, they had lost more than half of their men in the lake. Only three remained. That was lesson enough.

As for Bai Yang and the others, since they want to run into an iron wall, so be it. They weren’t allies, after all, just rivals.

Meanwhile, seeing Cao Guang going further and further away, putting more distance between them, Huo Qi, Beishan Xue, and the others felt secretly happy.

How generous of Cao Guang to walk away and leave the Red Spider Lilies for them.

They had suffered heavy losses. If they couldn’t make up for it with some kind of gain, they’d face severe blame upon returning. No one ever faulted the dead, so the living would bear the consequences.

They were the leaders, so that responsibility would fall squarely on their shoulders.

However, things might be different if the Red Spider Lilies were added to the equation.

“Hmph, Chen Fan, let’s see how strong you’ve become to act so arrogantly and block us. You really don’t know the meaning of death. Go to hell!” Huo Qi smiled coldly. Even though he was heavily injured and his strength had declined sharply, his strength was still formidable. He balled his fist, and a powerful aura burst from him as he struck.

Rumble!

Heaven and earth were shocked as he punched out, moving the earth and the mountains.

The terrifying fist force twisted into a stream and broke through space like a flood dragon, sweeping toward Chen Fan with a mighty momentum.

Facing Huo Qi’s terrifying punch, he smiled in disdain and grabbed at the fist force. Starry light flickered, and he shattered that fist force into pieces.

“Even if you were at your peak now, you wouldn’t scare me, let alone now, when you’re half-crippled. Annihilate!”

Thump, thump.

The terrifying shockwave pushed Huo Qi back two steps, and his eyes flickered.

Although he was greatly weakened, he could still utilize fifty to sixty percent of his strength, which was equivalent to an expert who had mastered more than forty threads of law. He didn’t expect to be struck by Chen Fan as soon as he made a move.

Gui Ku, Beishan Xue, Fu Buping, and Bai Yang’s faces changed slightly at the sight.

It was no wonder Chen Fan dared to block their way here.

“Since you made the first move, you shall die first!”

After crushing Huo Qi’s fist force, Chen Fan’s figure blurred as he charged toward Huo Qi with the Holy Spear of the Sun in hand. He turned into an afterimage, instantly arriving in front of Huo Qi, wrapped in earth-shattering might, and stabbed out violently.

The attack that could collapse heaven and crack earth made Huo Qi feel as if the grim reaper’s scythe was slicing toward him. His face changed drastically.

“Death Seal of Judgment, break for me!”

At the critical moment, Huo Qi formed a complicated seal with both hands. A massive green sigil burst forth, radiating overwhelming death energy as it shot toward him.

Rumble!

Chen Fan’s attack stabbed the Death Seal of Judgment violently, like two divine weapons crashing together. Sparks flew, and the sound of clashing metal rang out.

The Death Seal of Judgment was the ultimate technique of the Judgment Palace Hall’s legacy. Very few people could practice it. That Huo Qi could wield it showed just how highly he was regarded.

The might of the Death Seal of Judgment was indeed terrifying. Even when he executed it in a heavily injured state, it was shockingly powerful, pushing Chen Fan back from the impact and neutralizing his terrifying attack.

But the seal couldn’t hold. With a loud crack, it shattered into fragments and dissipated into nothingness.

“Ugh.” Huo Qi staggered a few steps back and let out a muffled groan. His eyes flickered so coldly that it made people’s hair stand on end.
