Supreme Cultivation Master

Chapter 627: Chapter 626: Crossing the Natural Moat

The Evil Dragon roared, the air thick with a murderous aura. When this aura concentrated fully upon the Evil Dragon, it grew even stronger.

The Evil Dragon’s eyes glowed with a blood-red killing intent. Upon catching Ye Fan’s scent, it immediately launched an attack, attempting to crush him with its incredible speed.

Ye Fan shouted, "Bring it on! Wanxiang Divine Shield!"

This time, a blue phantom emerged from behind him. Its powerful form twisted and coiled, resembling a knight in full armor confronting the Evil Dragon, not yielding an inch.

The blue phantom had changed as well. It was no longer the dim-eyed, lifeless specter of before. Instead, it was like a true Divine Beast, its terrifying power chilling one to the core. It seemed capable of devouring mountains and rivers.

A dragon’s cry sounded. Though it lacked the Evil Dragon’s sharp, piercing roar, it was in no way inferior in strength. This was the blue phantom.

After being infused with the Divine Dragon Essence Blood, his blue phantom had ascended to another level, becoming far more animated.

ROAR!

The Evil Punishment Main God commanded the Evil Dragon to charge Ye Fan with murderous intent, while Ye Fan countered by sending his blue phantom surging forward.

CRASH!

The two Divine Beasts collided. The Evil Dragon’s sharp claws tore into the blue phantom, shattering two of its armor-like scales in their initial clash.

The Evil Punishment Main God smirked mockingly, feeling smug. After all, an Evil Dragon of this level was an absolutely terrifying existence. Just as he was about to press his attack and completely shatter the blue phantom, the unexpected occurred.

The blue phantom coiled around the Evil Dragon, trapping it.

"Break!" freēwēbηovel.c૦m

The Evil Punishment Main God urged the Evil Dragon onward, trying to tear the blue phantom to pieces.

However, Ye Fan also commanded his blue phantom. The moment it unleashed its power, the Evil Dragon was crushed.

"Ah!"

The Evil Punishment Main God was sent flying backward, and at this, Ye Fan withdrew his power.

Wu Fa hurried over to help the Evil Punishment Main God up. "Father, are you alright?"

"Alright? My ass! You unfilial son, you’re only remembering to help your old man now?" the Evil Punishment Main God cursed.

But Wu Fa replied innocently, "Father, you can’t be a sore loser, can you?"

"You little rascal!"

The Evil Punishment Main God clutched his chest, which felt cold from the shock. If he could, he would beat this unfilial son to death—he just wanted to ask Wu Fa whose damn side he was on.

However, he calmed himself and said to Ye Fan, "Junior Brother, you’ve won!"

He said this grudgingly. After all, the gap between cultivation realms was said to be an insurmountable chasm. Trying to cross it was a fool’s dream. Yet, he had become the first Grand Nirvana realm expert in history to be defeated by a Martial Artist in the Minor Nirvana realm. Thankfully, word of this hadn’t gotten out, or he would have lost face completely.

Ye Fan responded, "That’s only because you went easy on me, Senior Brother. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for me to defeat you!"

Although Ye Fan’s words were respectfully spoken, they sounded strangely cloying to the Main God. But at this moment, it was best to quit while ahead.

With that, he smiled at Ye Fan and said, "You’re too kind, Junior Brother. Since you are my junior, it’s only right that I go easy on you for a move or two. But this is still sufficient proof of your extraordinary talent!"

"Pfft! You lost, so just accept it. No need for such lousy excuses," Wu Fa said disdainfully. "You should be more like Uncle Mu from Chizhou. When he loses, he admits it without making poor excuses!"

The Evil Punishment Main God almost ran out of breath in frustration. He snapped his finger and flicked Wu Fa on the forehead.

"Why’d you flick me, old man?" Wu Fa wailed.

Ye Fan chuckled, and so did the Evil Punishment Main God.

Standing atop the three-headed Demon Dragon, the Evil Punishment Main God said to Ye Fan, "Junior Brother, with your current strength, you are powerful enough to contend with the top three prodigies of the Evil God lineage!"

"Your cultivation realm has caught up to theirs, yet your combat power is no weaker!"

Ye Fan nodded.

Then the Evil Punishment Main God continued, "Junior Brother, do you know why I didn’t say you could completely annihilate them?"

Ye Fan replied, "I understand, Senior Brother. You believe that since they are the top prodigies of the Divine Domain, with ancient legacies and heaven-defying power, it is natural for you to have such concerns. I understand completely.

"Although my cultivation realm is on par with theirs, I won’t become arrogant. There is always someone better, and a heaven beyond the heavens. I am not necessarily the most talented person out there. I came to terms with that long ago."

Ye Fan was respectful, not prideful. He knew this was the path of martial arts—only with a calm mind and a singular focus on cultivation could one advance further.

The Evil Punishment Main God nodded. "To think like that shows your mindset is very strong, at least no weaker than ours. I was worried you would answer that you could instantly kill them!

"That would have been worrying. Their strength is truly overpowering, to an outrageous degree. This generation’s top three prodigies have been cultivated since childhood by the Evil God lineage, using immense resources!

"It’s all to overthrow our Righteous Divine Lineage when they grow up. Of course, their ambitions don’t stop there; they also aim to overthrow the Demon Clan!

"One could say, in order to support these young talents, they haven’t launched a major offensive against our Righteous Divine Lineage in two hundred years!" the Evil Punishment Main God explained.

Ye Fan nodded, indicating he understood. So they’re spending a great deal to cultivate these young prodigies? Well then, Laozi will just kill these young prodigies and let their plans go up in smoke.

Then, Ye Fan said to the Evil Punishment Main God, "Senior Brother, I know what to do."

"Good!" the Evil Punishment Main God immediately responded. He believed that this gathering of geniuses would be very interesting indeed.

Finally, as the three-headed Demon Dragon continued its flight, the trio arrived at the dueling grounds.

High in the sky, the Evil Punishment Main God urged the three-headed Demon Dragon to accelerate. Just then, a massive shadow loomed over them, flying right over the Demon Dragon’s heads.

"Courting death!" the Evil Punishment Main God shouted coldly.

The man on the Spiritual Beast ahead turned and said, "Ah, if it isn’t the Evil Punishment Main God. My apologies for any offense, I hope you won’t take it to heart."

With that, he directed his Spiritual Beast and flew away.

"That damn bastard!" cursed the Evil Punishment Main God.

Ye Fan inquired, "Senior Brother, who was that? So arrogant!"

The Evil Punishment Main God replied, "The Demon Hunting Main God!"

Ye Fan had heard of him. His people could command Demon Beasts to fight for them, a skill that was truly unique in the entire Divine Domain.

Their lineage also had a collective title: Beast Tamers. They drove Divine Beasts into battle for them. Their own combat power might not be the strongest, but the beasts they commanded were the most terrifying. They were among the elite of the Evil God lineage.
