Chapter 1591: Black Sun King

The Human Deified cultivators and the Giant Kings clashed. Divine abilities, precious techniques, and immense primal power collided, unleashing terrifying, powerful ripples. An epic battle involving nearly forty Deified cultivators erupted in full force! Terrifying shockwaves swept indiscriminately across the surroundings. Jiang Fan didn't dare approach too closely, fearing he would be caught in the blast and shatter his Nascent Soul body. He could only maneuver along the periphery, waiting for an opportunity to act.

"You really think highly of me, two against one old bone?" Vice Palace Master You's cursing voice echoed. She was struggling, simultaneously fending off attacks from two One-Star Giant Kings. While clumsily dodging, she unleashed streams of soul flames. These flames were highly destructive to Ancient Giants, whose souls were their only weakness. Within a few rounds, one Giant King had his eyes burned, howling in pain as he clutched his face. However, the other Giant King seized the opportunity, shooting a long, penetrating tongue towards her glabella. Vice Palace Master You found herself with no escape, a sense of despair welling up within her.

At this very moment, a piece of jade paper inscribed with runes instantly teleported and struck the Giant King's face. The runes on it flashed brilliantly, detaching from the jade and penetrating the Giant King's soul. Immediately after, the Giant King's eyes rolled back; he collapsed, dead, before even a scream could escape his lips. The long tongue, which had been aimed at Vice Palace Master You, weakly touched her forehead before sliding uselessly to the ground. Vice Palace Master You, having narrowly escaped death, looked towards the direction of the jade paper and realized it was Jiang Fan. She gratefully said, "Thanks, you brat." Jiang Fan replied, "Be careful, Palace Master."

He retrieved the jade paper; its runes had dispersed, and it needed to be reinscribed to regain its power. Looking at the dead Giant King, Jiang Fan secretly marveled, "The Sage's artifacts are truly effective. This was the easiest Giant King to kill." Without delay, Jiang Fan, clutching the remaining two pieces of jade paper, rushed to another part of the battlefield.

"You dead giants, do you think this is a Celestial Realm hunt?" Perhaps because Giant Kings found it easy to kill Asuras, three Giant Kings had actually targeted Asura King Mingye. As soon as they engaged, he was struck so hard he coughed blood, and cracks appeared on his crown. He was in an extremely perilous situation. *Swoosh! Swoosh!* Two pieces of jade paper instantly teleported and struck two of the Giant Kings. Instantly, their souls were extinguished by the runes. Asura King Mingye glanced at Jiang Fan, who had made the move, thanked him, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then furiously engaged the last remaining Giant King.

Jiang Fan retrieved the two pieces of jade paper, his eyes filled with hope. It was already sixteen to eighteen! If they took down a few more, they could launch a counter-attack against the Giant Kings!

As three Giant Kings fell consecutively, King Nether, who was battling in the distance, snorted lightly: "Black Sun King, how much longer will you watch the show?" From within the colossal black pillar that reached the sky, a tremendous roar echoed. A colossal thirty-zhang tall giant, with five stars swirling between his brows, heavily smashed onto the ground. The scorched earth trembled as if an earthquake had struck. Both the battling Human Deified cultivators and Giant Kings were simultaneously shaken, their vital energy churning. Those closer to the sky-reaching black pillar even coughed up blood from the tremors. Everyone's expressions suddenly changed. The Giant Kings were naturally delighted, their sinister grins widening. The Human Deified cultivators, however, wore grave expressions.

Especially the several Deified cultivators from Taicang Prefecture, who looked at the Black Sun King with complicated feelings. This Five-Star Giant King of the Black Sun Royal Court had, after all, inevitably arrived. His arrival extinguished the slim hope of victory they had so painstakingly secured. The Black Sun King was expressionless, his gaze sweeping the surroundings like lightning. Soon, his eyes fixed on Jiang Fan. In his golden vertical eyes, hatred surged, and he menacingly said, "Wang Chongxiao! We finally meet again!"

Jiang Fan had made a visit to the Black Sun Royal Court, and had even been personally sent back to the Middle Earth by him, becoming a laughingstock throughout the entire Celestial Realm! Later, he consecutively destroyed the Blood Pool and seized the treasury's weapons. This left the Ancient Giants of the Black Sun Royal Court with no weapons to use! The Black Sun Royal Court had been utterly reduced to a joke. Even King Nether's central tribe disdained setting up camp in the Black Sun Royal Court, refusing to associate with them. He harbored a deep-seated hatred for Wang Chongxiao!

Jiang Fan's heart sank; the Black Sun King had indeed arrived. He maintained a calm facade and chuckled, "Perfect, with you here, the giants of the Black Sun Royal Court can finally have a grand reunion." Hearing this, killing intent surged in the Black Sun King's eyes!

The Black Sun King already knew about the demise of the Fortune Giant Kings and their kin. Those were all his elite subordinates, all of them completely wiped out! For this, King Nether's forces had even mocked the Black Sun Royal Court for its incompetence. Fortunately, the Three-Star Space Giant King who had scoffed the most enthusiastically volunteered to lead half the army to subdue Jiang Fan and his companions. The result was that he never returned, also meeting his demise in Taicang Prefecture.

He stared at Jiang Fan, his eyes cold: "Sparing your life back then was my greatest mistake. Now, it's time for me to correct that error." The space around him shattered into countless void fissures, and his colossal body vanished into thin air. Jiang Fan's heart skipped a beat—he was here!

But he wasn't flustered, because he had been waiting for this very moment! In his palm, a jade talisman containing the domain of Grand Venerable Compassion Mirror was crushed. The next moment, a golden fist appeared out of thin air, just a foot from Jiang Fan's nose. It was the Black Sun King's fist! His enormous body also materialized alongside it. A shimmering, ethereal mirror trapped him, rendering him immobile. Jiang Fan had been just an inch away from being utterly annihilated by that punch!

"A domain of the Five Heavenly Declines?" the Black Sun King exclaimed in surprise. He couldn't understand why Jiang Fan hadn't used such a powerful artifact until now! Feeling the destructive power contained within the fist, Jiang Fan couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. Fortunately, he had saved the domain-type trump card his godmother had left him in the Myriad Calamity Sacred Hall. Even when facing great dangers before, he had never used it. Because he knew that the Black Sun King would eventually arrive. This domain had to be reserved specifically for him! Moreover, this wasn't the only trump card he had saved. While the Black Sun King was temporarily sealed, Jiang Fan flipped his palm, and a drop of ink-black venom appeared.

It was indeed the venom of Grand Venerable Black Dragon! It could poison and kill any powerful being below the Five Heavenly Declines! Killing the Black Sun King with it might not be enough, but it would certainly gravely wound him! "You dare!" the Black Sun King roared, sensing the danger of the venom. He truly hadn't expected Jiang Fan to have prepared such a powerful weapon for him in advance! "Welcome to the Middle Earth! Please accept this gift!"

With a flick of his finger, the venom landed on the Black Sun King's chest. *Crack!* The mirror, unable to withstand the Black Sun King's struggles, finally shattered. The Black Sun King's gaze was like a blade as he fiercely slashed at the skin on his chest, intending to cut off the venom along with that piece of flesh. But Grand Venerable Black Dragon's potent venom was incredibly virulent; upon contact with the skin, it immediately permeated the flesh and rapidly spread throughout his entire body.

The Black Sun King's golden skin quickly turned black, decaying in large patches. At the same time, his internal organs were also rotting. The Black Sun King roared in pain repeatedly, constantly spewing black blood from his mouth, his eyes bulging as he glared at Jiang Fan and bellowed: "You little beast!!!" He failed to kill Jiang Fan, and instead was ambushed by him! It was an utter humiliation! Enduring the intense pain, his long tongue created a series of void-shattering trails as it shot towards Jiang Fan.
