Chapter 914: Flying Immortal Divine Fetus

Welcome.

Inside the temple, a pristine white flower bloomed, its petals stained with blood, emanating a cold, clear fragrance that permeated every corner. This was the trembling Flower of Dao.

Hua Yunfei battled Ye Fan, unleashing every technique. One seemed like an immortal descending from a cold heavenly palace, while the other's battle spirit surged, like a god reborn from fire.

A path without self-determination, a tragic future, a mere pawn in another's game—was this Hua Yunfei's life?

Ye Fan didn't know the intricate details; at this moment, only a battle to the death remained. Perhaps, as Li Xiaoman had said, this was a fated confrontation, the ultimate conclusion.

With a *pop*, vibrant five-colored blood and golden blood burst forth together, intermingling. It was a dazzling and mesmerizing sight, as drops splashed into the air, one after another.

At this point, words were useless. This was a duel of life and death: one step back meant hell, one step forward meant a more vibrant life. The two stood in sharp opposition, battling relentlessly.

Various lights danced as Ye Fan fought, bathed in blood, unstoppable. However, his opponent's spirit, essence, and energy had also reached their peak, making a decisive blow difficult.

The Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art was a world-defying cultivation method, capable of assimilating even the origins of deceased ancient saints. This truly defied common sense, evading the heavens' reckoning. Hua Yunfei was now extremely dangerous.

Ye Fan's right hand transformed into a golden grinding disc, covered in mysterious patterns. It struck with earth-shattering force, while Hua Yunfei, light and ethereal, continuously moved his hands, emitting streams of clear radiance to constantly neutralize the attacks.

With a dragon's roar that shook the nine heavens, a terrifying immortal sword appeared in Ye Fan's right hand. It resembled a great dragon: its head formed the tip, its body the blade, and its tail the hilt.

The Grand Sovereign Sword!

He raised his right hand high and slashed downwards. Wisps of primordial chaos overflowed, slicing forth along the sharp blade. Millions of streams of clear radiance erupted, bearing the might of an ultimate emperor weapon.

Hua Yunfei, like a banished immortal, shimmered with five-colored immortal light, soaring gracefully, his robes fluttering, as if he would ride the wind into the nine heavens.

However, the Grand Sovereign Sword, evolved by Ye Fan using the Dou (Fight) Character Secret, firmly locked onto him. The sword's body, with its dragon scales growing in reverse, was almost identical to a true emperor weapon. Every scale glowed, interweaving to unleash boundless killing intent!

*Clang!*

Ten thousand threads of killing intent merged, transforming into a beam of eternal light that became a great dragon. It shed its origin from the Grand Sovereign Sword and shot towards Hua Yunfei's chest, accompanied by vast primordial chaos.

This was a wondrous sight, like a true dragon descending from the nine heavens. The Grand Sovereign Sword itself unleashed this indestructible dragon-light, impossible to evade.

Various lights flickered around Hua Yunfei's body, but they were all shattered. One precious weapon after another flew out, only to be reduced to dust.

The Grand Sovereign Sword was unparalleled, hailed as the foremost offensive immortal weapon. No other sharp implement could compare. Even before it touched Hua Yunfei's body, it nearly severed his shoulder, creating a terrifying wound.

Ye Fan's pupils shone like two divine lamps. He elevated his cultivation and magical power to their limits, exhaling a breath of innate chaotic energy that merged into the dragon-shaped sword.

This was an ultimate strike!

Hua Yunfei resisted with all his might, yet ultimately failed to block it. The Myriad Transformation Saint Art could turn all wonders into decay, but the current Ye Fan was too powerful to be neutralized.

With a *gush*, a terrifying wound suddenly appeared, extending from his left shoulder down to his right abdomen. Blood gushed out like a spring, bubbling and splashing, a truly shocking sight.

Half of Hua Yunfei's body flew outwards, severed diagonally at the shoulder. His lower body also convulsed, scattering five-colored blood across the ancient temple floor as he fell into the dust.

Ye Fan intended to press his advantage, but a dark, ominous treasure vase suddenly appeared, colliding between his arms. Instantly, ten thousand strands of black light burst forth.

The Grand Dao Treasure Vase!

This was an assault of Dao cultivation, a massive explosion of magical power, utterly destructive. Its impact was extreme; even a Dao-Slaying King would struggle to survive such a hit.

*Crack!*

Ye Fan's arms broke, his sternum shattered, and golden blood splattered everywhere. A bowl-sized hole appeared in his chest, piercing straight through, his injuries horrifying.

To self-destruct the Grand Dao Treasure Vase—truly worthy of the Ruthless Emperor's lineage. Not only was he ruthless to his enemies, but even more so to himself. This was bone-shattering pain; though capable of regeneration, it left him severely weakened.

With unspoken understanding, neither attacked again. Both retreated swiftly; one activated the Phoenix Tribulation Rebirth Art, while the other circulated the incomplete "Zhè" (Healer) Character Secret to recover from their injuries.

In such a brutal confrontation, without appropriate healing scriptures to rapidly restore the body, one would inevitably decline and fall into a disadvantage, leading to defeat and death.

One was reborn from fire, radiating five-colored divine light, like a phoenix. The other, too, had strands of Grand Dao divine chains entwined around him, weaving into threads of life's radiance.

They opened their eyes almost simultaneously and struck again, decisively and absolutely. Every move was a killing blow, holding nothing back.

The Flying Immortal Art!

Hua Yunfei moved again, with the same starting stance, but his aura was vastly different. The secret art he unleashed this time was terrifying and unfathomable. The Grand Dao Treasure Vase then transformed into ten thousand strands of black light that shot into his glabella. At this moment, a treasure vase mark pulsed between his eyebrows.

*Boom!*

Like raging waves, the Flying Immortal force surged from within his glabella, constantly evolving in conjunction with his starting stance. The immortal light streaming from his glabella poured forth like a mighty river.

A dazzling light, ten thousand zhang wide, instantly sent Ye Fan flying. This was the sublimation of Hua Yunfei's entire essence, spirit, and energy, erupting from his glabella with unstoppable divine might.

However, most astonishingly, all the divine radiance quickly coalesced, forming a new Hua Yunfei, enveloped in endless shimmering light, dazzling to behold.

What was going on?

Even Ye Fan was startled, unable to immediately comprehend it, but he didn't hesitate, striking swiftly.

Ascending amidst a sea of light, the brand-new Hua Yunfei, formed from ten thousand zhang of radiance, was surrounded by streams of clear brilliance and diffused immortal mist. He seemed poised to feather-ascend and become an immortal, untouched by even a trace of mortal dust.

His beauty surpassed that of women; his demeanor was elegant, ethereal, and extraordinary. Every movement of his hand or foot suggested he was about to ride the wind away.

This was the true Flying Immortal Art!

Hua Yunfei forcibly unleashed it. Previously, it had not been perfected to its extreme, but now, in this battle of life and death, it finally underwent ultimate sublimation, revealing the art's true splendor.

Ascending amidst radiance!

From his original body, a new self emerged, shedding its old form, ascending like an immortal, transforming into a divine embryo!

The offensive power of this divine embryo was unparalleled. If a Great Emperor were to unleash it, it could slay immortals, slaughter gods, and destroy all foes; no one in the nine heavens and ten earths could withstand it. This was the secret art created by the awe-inspiring Ruthless Emperor of old.

Ye Fan evolved the Dou Zhan Saint Art, fiercely resisting. Golden blood continuously splattered as both fought with berserk intensity, confronting each other head-on, evolving the Dou (Fight) Character Secret.

Since the Ruthless Great Emperor created the Flying Immortal Art specifically to counter this technique, Ye Fan would now use his art to confront it. Who was stronger, who was weaker—the answer would finally be revealed.

This grand confrontation grew increasingly fierce. The ancient temple hummed, and no one could approach. The transformed Hua Yunfei was even more terrifying, continuously engaging Ye Fan. The two became a ball of light, entwined together.

Ye Fan's heart trembled greatly. This was the sublimation of a person's essence, spirit, and energy. He finally understood some reasons why the Ruthless Emperor created the Immortal Heavenly Art in her later years; it must be related to this technique. To shed an old demonic body and transform into a divine embryo—it was indeed against the heavens, seemingly destined since she first created the Flying Immortal Art!

Ye Fan's left hand evolved the Void Mirror, shining light into the eyes of the divine embryo Hua Yunfei. This was meant to be lethal, at least causing blindness, but Hua Yunfei burst forth with immortal light, only momentarily blurring his eye sockets.

*Hum!*

The Flying Immortal force, proud throughout the ages, struck, transforming into a dazzling beam of light. It crashed into the ancient Void Mirror with a crisp *crack*, nearly shattering it.

Both had already sustained terrifying wounds and various injuries. The divine embryo formed from the Flying Immortal force battled Ye Fan, fighting from one hall into another, startling many onlookers who dared not intervene.

*Boom!*

Ye Fan charged back, his divine might unstoppable. Hua Yunfei's divine embryo could not block him as he raced directly towards Hua Yunfei's main body, aiming to destroy it.

The divine embryo was formed from the immortal light within the treasure vase imprint on Hua Yunfei's glabella. Ye Fan knew that by severing his main body, he could render everything meaningless. At this moment, the divine embryo Hua Yunfei opened its mouth and absorbed its main body within itself first.

Ye Fan exerted his power, and his golden primordial spirit surged out, also taking his form, and evolved the Flying Immortal Art. Both his main body and primordial spirit jointly unleashed the Dou Zhan Saint Art, battling Hua Yunfei.

*Pfft!*

Hua Yunfei was passive; his divine embryo was nearly severed, and his main body dropped out of it. The two merged, and he rapidly retreated. Ye Fan pursued closely, unleashing various wondrous arts, and the two began a new phase of their battle.

"Ye Fan, how about we join forces?" Hua Yunfei transmitted telepathically. "Together, we can search for that hall, comprehend the secrets of traversing the starry sky, and finally ascend the five-colored altar for our decisive battle."

"Cooperating with you is no different than asking a tiger for its skin," Ye Fan directly refused, intensifying his attacks.

People had forgotten about the two Yin Gods, all now engaged in conflict, storming the ancient temple, vying for treasures. Ye Fan and Hua Yunfei had already battled for two thousand rounds, blood continuously splattering.

"Found it! There's a way in here, kid. It's not the Scripture Repository we thought, but a star map!" the big black dog transmitted telepathically from the shadows. It opened its mouth and spat out a beam of light; a small killing formation flew out, eliminating its opponent. Then, it extended a pair of large paws and began prying open the door.

The black dog called out, "Hurry over! The central hall seems to truly have a broken cauldron, and the Feathered Ascension Immortal Scripture! While the experts are all over there, let's quickly investigate the mysteries here thoroughly!"

Pang Bo also eliminated his opponent and rushed over. Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue also fought their way forward. With a *boom*, the door was pushed open, revealing region after region of star maps within the hall. They shimmered with clear radiance, like three-dimensional depictions, incredibly profound, with every star twinkling with light.

However, Hua Yunfei blocked Ye Fan, unfurling a light barrier in the distance. This battle concerned his future; he would oppose Ye Fan to the death.

*Pop!*

Ye Fan spun and struck. He wasn't truly leaving; turning, he proactively charged back, declaring, "Before I depart, we should have an end to this."

*Boom!*

Suddenly, a wisp of imperial might appeared, sweeping forward. A world-shaking killing intent emerged, astonishing and terrifying everyone in and near the hall.

This was a wisp of black light, vaguely resembling a dragon, poised to engulf Ye Fan. Such power could even make a Dao-Slaying King regret their actions! Yet, Ye Fan showed no fear, as if he had already anticipated all of this, displaying no surprise. On the other side, another black light flickered and rushed over; it was the aura of the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Pot, protecting him.

"Is this the hunter you spoke of?" Ye Fan's expression was cold.

"He's here, taking the stage... my path has reached its end..." Hua Yunfei murmured softly.
