Chapter 1342 - White Bone Demonic Being
While Chen Fan was going around doing missions, Gu Xun wasn’t idling around either.
When Chen Fan killed Lin Heng, it sparked a stir in the sect and led to numerous rumors. One claimed a Featherlight Sect behemoth had taken him in as a personal disciple. Because of this, Gu Xun suppressed his killing intent for over a year, mobilizing every resource to verify the truth.
If it were true, he would bury his revenge; if false, he would spare Chen Fan for a year at most, already more mercy than deserved.
Swish!
A talisman flew into Gu Xun’s cave. He caught the talisman, which immediately turned into a piece of information. His face twisted savagely; murderous qi erupted everywhere.
“Good, good, good. It was nothing more than gossip, twisting the truth!”
A harrowing, chilling light flickered in Gu Xun’s eyes. After more than a year, he finally confirmed. Chen Fan’s display on the Heavenly Punishment Platform had caught the eyes of higher-ups, but the story of a behemoth taking him in was utterly false.
“Chen Fan!”
Gu Xun stood up all of a sudden, emanating overwhelming killing intent.
He couldn’t forget being beaten like a dog back then. He was the young patriarch of an Immortal King clan in the Heavenly Realm, whereas Chen Fan was merely a peasant from the lower realms. He had demanded an immortal artifact, expecting Chen Fan to hand it over obediently, yet the boy dared to resist and even injured him.
This grudge needed revenge. Only Chen Fan’s life could wash away the shame.
Gu Xun said in an icy voice with gritted teeth, giving off an incomparably cold feeling, “Son of a bitch, I let you live for another year, you should thank me for it. Now, your time to die has come!”
He had sentenced Chen Fan to death.
......
In a little more than a year, Chen Fan’s cultivation level returned to the middle-stage Invincible Legendary realm, and his combat strength stood stably at the late-stage Void Immortal level.
Swish.
He landed on the plaza outside the Merit Hall and walked into the great hall.
An elder, already familiar with him, tossed over a golden book. “Another mission? We’ve already reserved a seventh-grade mission for you. Take a look.”
Over the past year, Chen Fan had taken on more than a dozen seventh-grade missions. At first, the elders doubted he could succeed; now, they reserved such tasks for him in advance. By this point, Chen Fan was on good terms with them.
“Many thanks, Elder.”
He caught the book without ceremony and scanned its contents.
This time, the mission was to travel to the White Bone Mountain Ridge in the northern region of the Imperial Supremacy Heavenly Domain to eradicate the White Bone Demonic Being that resided there.
He took a quick look at this mission and accepted it.
“Alright, I’ll take this mission.”
......
A blazing sun lit the northern sky. Dark qi poured through the pale ridges of White Bone Mountain, reaching the clouds; within it, faintly, souls writhed and wailed.
This was the White Bone Mountain Ridge: an entire range formed from white bones.
The famed White Bone Demonic Being resided here. Rumors claimed that he had come across an opportunity and practiced the White Bone Grand Art, allowing him to control white bones in battle.
Thus, though only at middle-stage Void Immortal, within this ridge, he could overwhelm even late-stage Void Immortal experts. Over the years, many arrogant young geniuses had come to slay him—only to die here, reduced to bones themselves.
“Hahaha, hahaha.”
At the center of the White Bone Mountain Ridge, an elegant young master reveled in lustful acts with countless beauties. As they convulsed, their flesh withered away until nothing remained but bones.
This elegant young master was the White Bone Demonic Being, one who committed every imaginable evil. In the past, he had even abducted women from orthodox sects, turning them into nourishment for his vile cultivation.
Swish, swish.
At this time, a figure appeared outside the ridge. Seeing the towering dark qi in the skies above the White Bone Mountain Ridge, Chen Fan slightly furrowed his brow. It was clearly the lingering resentment of all those the demonic being had slain.
Chen Fan opened his Eye of Breaking Deception and scanned the entire White Bone Mountain Ridge, but didn’t find any traps.
Ever since finding out that the Ominous Stars Alliance had eyes in the Featherlight Sect, Chen Fan had acted prudently. On every mission, he would first use the Eye of Breaking Deception to check his surroundings to see if there were any traps.
On several missions before, he had avoided ambushes thanks to the Eye of Breaking Deception.
“No ambush here, huh...”
Chen Fan scanned his surroundings and found nothing unusual. He even saw a White Bone Demonic Being committing lustful acts.
“Alright, since that is the case, White Bone Demonic Being, today will be the day you die!”
Immediately, Chen Fan condensed a law sword in his hand, emitting overwhelming sword qi. He slashed it toward the White Bone Demonic being in the ridge, sweeping through the air and destroying everything.
Rumble!
Explosions rocked heaven and earth. Qi waves tumbled as a streak of sword light ripped through space like a comet chasing stars, striking the mountain’s center and slashing at the White Bone Demonic Being.
“Who dares to sneak attack me!”
White Bone Demonic Being immediately sensed danger and released a burst of aura, turning the surrounding women into blood mists as his aura swept out.
He grabbed at the air, condensing a large white bone claw in the void that swiped toward the falling sword light.
Rumble!
The two attacks collided in an instant, resulting in something similar to a nuclear explosion. A terrifying storm swept through heaven and earth, shaking the entire White Bone Mountain Ridge and causing the white bones to clatter loudly.
Bang, bang, bang...
Sword qi and bone claw collided fiercely in midair. Cracks spread across the claw even as the sword qi’s brilliance dimmed under its crushing force.
Boom, tch.
Ultimately, the two terrifying attacks neutralized each other.
“Who dares to sneak attack me, show yourself!”
𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
White Bone Demonic Being stood in the air, his aura overwhelming. Behind him manifested a corpse nation of bones: countless skeletal troops lined in rows like an army awaiting command.
“White Bone Demonic Being, you’ve committed numerous evils with no conscience. Your good days have come to an end. Today is the day you die for your sins.”
Chen Fan strode through the air, Sky Breaking Sword in hand. His sword intent soared skyward, sharp and boundless, like that of a peerless sword master.
