Chapter 1062: Chapter 943: Ugly True Colors

The moment Chen Daozang stepped out of the world portal, he felt a blur before his eyes, and soon he saw Ye Fan, Yan, Chu Xuanji, and others standing in front of him.

Huh?!

Chen Daozang was stunned, hardly able to believe his eyes, thinking he must be hallucinating.

Because…

He never thought that Ye Fan and others would appear here!

Chen Daozang tried to open his eyes wider to see more clearly, and at the same time, he distinctly sensed the aura emanating from Ye Fan and the others, realizing that this wasn’t an illusion, nor a mirage, but they were all truly present.

“Hahaha…”

Chen Daozang burst into wild laughter, releasing his True Essence Realm aura without reservation, and said sinisterly, “This is truly a case of searching high and low only to find it effortlessly. You’ve all delivered yourselves to me, so let me send you on your way!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Daozang’s aura suddenly changed, becoming extremely terrifying, as if he were a humanoid fierce beast.

The four young cultivators from the Xuan Realm accompanying him had heard Chen Daozang talk about the affairs on Earth, including his grievances with Chu Xuanji and Yan.

Upon hearing him now, they immediately understood that the people in front of them must have had previous conflicts with him, and they couldn’t help but look towards Ye Fan and the others.

The auras of Ye Fan and the others were already released, and for these four, the depth of their cultivation was as clear as day, leaving nothing to guess; they had already seen through their cultivation levels.

“Senior Brother was indeed right. The cultivators of this world are unbelievably weak, nothing but a bunch of trash!”

One of the young cultivators sneered at Yan, Chu Xuanji, and others, saying to his fellow cultivators beside him.

“Yes! They are too weak. Once Senior Brother returns to the sect and reports this news, this world will become the private property of our Tianyuan Sect!”

“Owning a world; even those Holy Lands probably don’t have such grand ambitions, do they? Our Tianyuan Sect is destined to rise!”

“That’s right, with a world as a stronghold, we might genuinely have the capital to contend with those Holy Lands in the future, becoming one of the superpowers of the Xuan Realm!”

Thinking of the benefits to come, the four displayed radiant smiles on their faces. This time, without a doubt, Brother Gu Yun deserves the highest merit.

They too would accumulate tremendous merit, allowing them to swagger in the Tianyuan Sect; even those core disciples would have to show them respect.

The more they thought, the more delighted they were. This was all due to Brother Gu Yun’s merit, and also Chen Daozang’s. Without Chen Daozang, Gu Yun could have perished on Earth, and no one would know that an Xuan Realm cultivator had died in this world.

On the contrary, whether they or others of the Tianyuan Sect, all would think that Gu Yun died at the hands of a mutant beast, becoming a meal for the beast.

While the four disciples of the Tianyuan Sect were lost in their fantasies, they remained calm because they had long seen that only Chu Xuanji possessed the strongest cultivation present, but he was not Chen Daozang’s match, let alone theirs.

Even if Chen Daozang failed to defeat them, they would take over?

As soon as they took action, Chu Xuanji and others would not even have a chance to resist!

“Traitor!”

“Beast!”

Seeing Chen Daozang bringing the people of the Xuan Realm to Earth, Chu Xuanji and Yan cursed simultaneously. The current situation was clear as day, even without thinking much.

Undoubtedly, Chen Daozang had defected to the Xuan Realm and, with their help, broke through that bottleneck, formally stepping into the True Essence Realm.

Swoosh!

Lv Yuan and others turned pale. They clearly understood the current situation. Even without the four powerful figures from the Xuan Realm watching intently, just Chen Daozang alone stepping into the True Essence Realm could probably sweep everyone on their side!

At the moment Chen Daozang and the four entered Earth, Ye Fan recovered the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown immediately. He knew the situation was critical—if they failed to kill them all, Earth would indeed be in trouble.

In that instant, Ye Fan immersed his consciousness into the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown, communicating with Elder Xuan, hoping to ask him what could be done.

The Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown remained unchanged as always. After Ye Fan’s consciousness immersed into it, he soon saw Elder Xuan standing in the distance with a serene expression, hands behind his back.

“Elder Xuan, what should we do now? Can we utilize the power of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown to kill them all? Otherwise, Earth might be in danger!” Ye Fan asked respectfully as he approached Elder Xuan.

Elder Xuan sighed gently and said, “Boy, you might not know, but the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown has not yet recovered to its peak state. Instead, it has only recovered a sliver of its power. Moreover, if not for that so-called nuclear bomb, I would still be asleep.”

“With the current power of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown, if activated, it would be no problem to kill the four cultivators in front of us. But the issue is, after killing them, the Crown will inevitably consume some energy, leading to a lack of energy, and then we won’t be able to completely seal the channel. You make the decision!”

Elder Xuan tossed this hot potato to Ye Fan, letting him choose: either completely seal the channel or kill the four Xuan Realm cultivators in front of him.

Both choices are equally important, presenting a dilemma.

“How could it come to this?”

Ye Fan was stunned, perplexed at the choice. Killing these four is important; otherwise, Earth might be in danger, as no one can match them.

But if he kills them, then the channel cannot be completely sealed, posing a significant risk to Earth.

Seeing Ye Fan’s indecision, Elder Xuan sighed lightly. This decision is difficult for anyone, but he is only the Artifact Spirit of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown and cannot make this decision for Ye Fan.

Outside, Chu Xuanji and others were confronting Chen Daozang, while Ye Fan, inside the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown, was unaware of the situation outside.

Chu Xuanji was furious, trembling all over, but he knew that since Chen Daozang, this rebellious disciple, had successfully broken through to the True Essence Realm, he was no match for him.

Yan’s face also turned extremely grim. He had yet to break through the final step and didn’t expect Chen Daozang to have defected to the Xuan Realm, breaking through to the True Essence Realm with the help of Xuan Realm cultivators.

Although the True Essence Realm and Half-step Yuan realm differ by just two words, the gap between them is immense!

With four Xuan Realm cultivators and Chen Daozang, Yan felt there was no hope of victory. It seemed inevitable that his forces would be annihilated.

“Chen Daozang, you’re simply a beast! No, you’re worse than a beast, betraying the Xuan Realm. Are you still an Earthling?”

Yan sternly rebuked Chen Daozang, fully prepared to risk everything, even death, to make the enemy pay a dire price.

“Yan, spare me the righteous talk, it won’t affect me! The only thing that matters now is that I can crush you all with one hand!”

Chen Daozang coldly stared at Yan, saying, “As for… a beast? Haha, even if I am worse than a beast, what can you do about it? You will all die! From now on, Earth’s rules will be set by me!”

“Rebellious disciple, shameless! You must know how much damage the Xuan Realm has done to humanity, to Earth. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t help eliminate mutant beasts, but you’ve sold out Earth and humanity. You’re humanity’s greatest criminal!”

Chu Xuanji pointed angrily, shouting. No matter what, Chen Daozang was once his disciple. Seeing him defect to the Xuan Realm almost made him choke with anger.

“Haha, Master, calm down, care for your health.”

Chen Daozang was not angry at all. After reaching the True Essence Realm, he developed a domineering mindset, “You say I’m humanity’s greatest criminal? You’re wrong. If you hadn’t cornered me back then, would I have ended up like this? It’s all your fault, not mine!”

The four Xuan Realm cultivators stood by, arms crossed, watching the drama unfold, unaffected. According to Chen Daozang, these people should represent humanity’s elite, but in their eyes, they were just weaklings.

They felt no worry, confident there was no danger for Chen Daozang. He had already broken through the True Essence Realm, and with them backing him, Ye Fan and others were trapped like fish in a barrel.

“You vile child, you’ve truly surprised me! You survived such a powerful explosion; there must be some mighty treasure on you. Hand it over, and I might leave you with a complete corpse, or else, don’t blame me for killing the Old Bastard in front of you first!”

Chen Daozang’s gaze turned to Ye Fan, finding it strange how Ye Fan survived the Super Nuclear Bomb’s explosion.

In his view, Ye Fan must possess a priceless treasure, or he couldn’t have survived. After all, even the True Essence realm mutant beast, the Flame Eagle, was blasted to smithereens!

No response.

At this moment, Ye Fan’s consciousness was still immersed in the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown, talking with Elder Xuan.

“What a reckless young man!”

Chen Daozang’s face sank, surprised that Ye Fan ignored his words. His eyes flashed with a cold light, and a murderous aura erupted from him.

Su Liuli swiftly moved to block Ye Fan, determined to protect her beloved, even knowing she was outmatched.

And just then, Ye Fan finally made up his mind and said to Elder Xuan, “Elder Xuan, I’ve decided. Let’s kill these four first. If the channel can’t be completely sealed, there’s nothing we can do. Otherwise, Earth will face imminent destruction!”

“Alright, since you’ve decided, let’s begin.”

Elder Xuan nodded, expressionless.
