Supreme Cultivation Master
Chapter 486 - 485: Hard-fought Battle
This Killing God from the Divine Land was truly extraordinary. To be on par with him was something that ordinary Reincarnation Realm powerhouses could not hope to achieve. Although the Cain Ancestor was of the same tier, he had been thoroughly defeated at the Pope’s hands. There was an insurmountable gap even within the same realm, as the Pope had entered the Reincarnation Realm a step ahead of him. The Cain Ancestor was his defeated foe, then and now.
But this time, I’ve truly encountered a troublesome foe: Ye Fan. After trading just two blows, I still can’t determine the true extent of his strength. The European Pope grew wary, preparing to strike again to probe his opponent’s power.
At that moment, he shot toward Ye Fan. Bright Wings manifested on his back, granting him tremendous speed that brought him to Ye Fan’s side in the blink of an eye.
Pure Yang Divine Gang!
Ye Fan met him with a single punch, sending the European Pope flying backward! Such power was unstoppable.
The European Pope was furious. I am the European Pope, a renowned super-powerhouse in the Secular World! How could I suffer such humiliation and defeat? Enraged, he leaped back into the sky.
This time, his wings shone even brighter and whiter, so lifelike it was impossible to tell if they were real or not. The illusion was perfect.
Down below, numerous vampires screamed in agony. They feared this kind of white light above all else, and under its illumination, they had almost no resistance. In that instant, many vampires were slain by the Church Army.
Furious, the Cain Ancestor quickly unleashed his own power, creating a bloody light that barely held off the European Pope’s Holy Light of the Church.
The European Pope said mockingly, "Before God, you are merely an insignificant bug!"
"Is that so?" Ye Fan said disdainfully, "You’re not worthy of being called a god!"
The European Pope attacked again. This time, he avoided close combat. Instead, countless feathers, denser than raindrops, rained down from his Bright Wings. Such power was truly despair-inducing.
I have to stop them. If these feathers reach the crowd, the casualties will be immense. There can be no delay. Ye Fan quickly mobilized his power.
"Divine Bloodline!" he shouted.
Immediately, an endless radiance emanated from behind him. While this radiance wasn’t as magnificent or profound as the European Pope’s Holy Light of the Church, the light erupting from his Divine Bloodline continuously neutralized it. As the white light faded under the glow of his radiance, the vampires on the ground finally recovered.
"Courting death!" The European Pope was enraged. He immediately directed the feathers toward Ye Fan—hundreds of thousands of them, if not more!
Ye Fan shouted, "Barrier!"
A barrier of radiance materialized before him. As the white feathers touched it, they dissipated instantly, unable to penetrate the shield.
Seeing this, the European Pope was incandescent with rage. He roared, "You think this means you’ve won? You’re wrong!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
He immediately channeled his technique. All the feathers converged, forming a Judgement Sword of immense size. It was so colossal that everyone on the ground despaired at the mere sight of it. It was truly terrifying.
"Strike!" the European Pope shouted.
Instantly, the Judgement Sword struck down, aiming for Ye Fan’s barrier of radiance. Ye Fan quickly condensed an even thicker barrier, but cracks began to appear on it under the Judgement Sword’s assault. It’s breaking through! he thought in shock.
Although the Judgement Sword was eroding, it still seemed capable of breaking through his barrier. On the ground, the martial artists all stopped fighting to watch the scene unfold. This was undoubtedly the climax of the battle. The two greatest powerhouses of the Secular World were finally unleashing their full might.
To the Vampire Clan, it seemed that Ye Fan was in danger. No one could withstand the Judgement Sword. Once, the Cain Ancestor had deployed the very foundation of the Vampire Clan and had still suffered heavy damage from it. Even if Ye Fan was stronger than the Cain Ancestor, he seemed unable to stop the advance of the Judgement Sword without external help. It had already penetrated his barrier and was heading straight for his body.
Ye Fan shouted, "Do you think I’m afraid of you?"
"Returning Sect Slaughter!"
A powerful and sharp Sword Qi shot from his hand. This was undoubtedly his strongest blow. The Returning Sect Slaughter Sword quickly formed a whirlwind, resembling a ferocious, clawing beast as it charged toward the Judgement Sword.
The instant the two swords collided, many martial artists on the ground below exploded into a mist of blood. It wasn’t just them; even the High-level Martial Artists spat out mouthfuls of blood.
Heather and the Cain Ancestor watched the outcome above. They paled at what they saw: the Judgement Sword trembled and then shattered under the force of the strike.
PFFT!
The European Pope’s essence was merged with the Judgement Sword. When it shattered, he suffered a devastating backlash! His Angel Wings began to break apart under the net of swords unleashed by Ye Fan.
He was flung backward, crashing heavily into a distant snow mountain, which crumbled on impact.
The net of swords Ye Fan had unleashed continued to surge into the Church Army. In an instant, wails echoed across the field. If even the Pope could not withstand this strike, what chance did they have?
Under the onslaught of the Yuanhong Sword, over ten thousand members of the Church Army were slain. He was a demon with a drawn sword, killing with every step, felling ten thousand foes with a single strike.
Heather was left speechless. She had just charged to within three kilometers of the Church Army’s Marshal when Ye Fan’s attack descended. The Church Army’s Marshal was instantly torn to shreds. Even though the Marshal was a Saint-level powerhouse, he couldn’t withstand the terrifying strike.
At that moment, the Cain Ancestor exclaimed excitedly, "Their Marshal is dead!"
"Brave men of the Vampire Clan, charge with me!"
The vampires were galvanized. With reckless abandon, they charged alongside the Cain Ancestor into the midst of the Church Army. Having lost their entire command structure, the Church Army was thrown into chaos. They mounted a desperate resistance, but some had already begun to flee in panic.
But they still held the advantage in numbers. Even though Ye Fan had slain so many, it was impossible for the vampires to win without paying a price.
Yet, Ye Fan showed no signs of joy. This battle is far from over.
He stepped forward just as a huge pillar of light burst from the ruins of the shattered snow mountain, shooting straight into the sky!
"This is bad! It’s a Holy Artifact of the Church!" the Cain Ancestor shouted, a bad feeling washing over him. The Holy Grail! That’s a super Spiritual Artifact, even more formidable than our own Holy Artifact. I can’t believe the European Pope actually used it this time.
The remaining Great Commanders within the Church Army immediately shouted, "Church Army, hold your positions! The Pope will protect us! Kill!"
At their words, the Church Army regained its momentum, catching the attacking Vampire Clan completely off guard.
The Cain Ancestor immediately shouted, "Retreat!"
The Vampire Clan could only pull back to their base to counter the Church Army’s assault. They had no other choice; to continue fighting now would cost them far too much.
