The Emperor’s Appearance

Chapter 514: The Bearing of a Great Emperor

The great battle continued without end, as one race after another arrived, unbelievably powerful, making Lin Fan struggle to even breathe.

“Whoosh!”

Suddenly, a beam of light shot out from a three-eyed creature, its vertical eye on its forehead opening, incredibly intimidating.

Most terrifyingly, this light ignored space, arriving instantly, attempting to invade Lin Fan’s head.

“Primordial Spirit attack!” Lin Fan was startled, the small figure between his eyebrows glowed, dazzling brightly, condensing into a sharp sword that slashed forward.

He was fearless; his Primordial Spirit power was equally strong, having been tempered countless times, making it indestructible and possessing initial offensive capabilities.

“Boom!”

Light rain scattered as the beam was cut down, Lin Fan’s Primordial Spirit shone like the sun, re-seating itself deep within his glabella.

“It’s a pity, I lack the complete Turbulence Suppression Art, otherwise, it wouldn’t just be blocking this attack, but directly counter-killing,” he lamented.

Even so, Lin Fan ultimately killed the three-eyed creature because he himself was strong enough and had his own Dao.

“Roar…”

At this moment, the group of fierce beasts no longer appeared one by one, but several came at once, launching a siege.

Lin Fan’s heart tensed; was the difficulty increasing?

Indeed, his pressure surged, and he faced several crises, with blood flowing from some parts of his body, wounds deep enough to show bone.

One must know, this was a confrontation between peers, each one a top talent of their respective race, a prodigy of the Immortal Ancient Era, extremely terrifying!

“Kill!”

Lin Fan roared, fighting to the death; for him, this was also an opportunity to witness the Law of the Immortal Ancient.

At the same time, he was observing and learning. If he couldn't even defeat the imprints of the previous era, how could he talk about contending with another realm in the future?

One must know, the Immortal Ancient, despite its brilliance and splendor, was still annihilated. To avoid repeating the same mistake, one must surpass it.

“Boom!”

Finally, Lin Fan suppressed them one by one, including the Ten Vicious, White Tiger, Golden Crow, and other powerful races, all scattering into specks of light.

“It should be over now!” Lin Fan gasped for breath, exhaling white mist, which was Innate essence, showing how difficult this battle had been.

“Crack!”

At this moment, thunder rolled across the heavens and earth, emitting a loud roar. Each bolt of lightning was incredibly thick, carrying an Aura of destruction.

Lin Fan was surprised, muttering, “I don’t think I triggered the Lightning Tribulation, did I?”

“Whoosh…”

Then, a strong wind picked up, like blades slashing, striking Lin Fan’s body, causing sparks to fly and intense pain.

But this was not all; heavenly fire descended, crashing onto his body, scorching the Nine Heavens into distortion, with terrifying temperatures.

Furthermore, Heavenly River water poured down, black as ink, containing extreme poison. Even a drop would corrode everything without leaving a trace.

…

At this moment, various disasters in the heavens and earth arrived one after another, as if the heavens were enraged, annihilating living beings!

Lin Fan’s heart tensed, then he seemed to understand something, muttering to himself, “Is the so-called War Immortal meant to fight the heavens, fight the earth, and fight people?”

Afterward, he began to focus on dealing with these calamities, but he wasn't just passively enduring; he was also fighting back against the heavens and earth.

“Crack!”

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Fan’s fist strike shattered the heavens, and the sky finally broke apart, the world collapsed, and all the phenomena vanished.

All the wind, fire, Lightning Tribulation, True Dragon, Kunpeng… at this moment, all disappeared, leaving only a quiet stone chamber around him.

“I really didn’t expect this so-called War God Temple to be so difficult. I almost died in there, but luckily I realized it in time.”

Lin Fan felt a lingering fear, taking a deep breath, then frowned, seemingly in great pain.

This time, he nearly perished; his body was tattered, bleeding all over, looking incredibly miserable.

The trials were too difficult!

During this period, he fought against myriad races, against heaven and earth, each trial more perverse than the last, a narrow escape from death, simply not something a human could pass!

“Is this the War Immortal path? The word ‘War’ says it all!” Lin Fan sighed, but then shook his head.

A War Immortal is no ordinary being; to achieve such a Dao fruit, the calamities must be extraordinary, beyond imagination, far from what this temple could simulate.

Otherwise, throughout history, countless people would not have fallen on this path, with no one succeeding, leading it to be considered a dead end.

“The owner of this ancient hall probably realized this point back then, which is why he didn’t dare to name it ‘War Immortal’, only calling it the War God Temple.”

Afterward, Lin Fan began to heal, absorbing a large amount of heaven and earth essence, as well as sun and moon essence, like a bottomless pit.

He even took out a drop of Longevity Medicine, its medicinal fragrance assailing the nostrils and filling the entire stone chamber, which he then consumed.

There was no other way; he was too severely injured this time. Ordinary medicine was useless; only an immortal great medicine would have an effect.

Finally, after a long rest, he recovered and looked around; the interior was like a small world.

Undoubtedly, there were space Laws here; it looked small from the outside, but the interior was actually exceptionally vast.

On the pillars and stone walls, there were also the most rustic carvings, though weathered by time, they still held an Aura of the Great Dao.

And the scenes just now were all projected from the murals, indistinguishable from reality, capable of harming Lin Fan.

Fortunately, he endured it, and at the same time, he gained an unparalleled demeanor, like a War Immortal, with a majestic Aura.

Unlike the many scattered bones on the ground, some had long rotted away and perished over time, while others were still intact to this day.

But without exception, none of them were weak during their lifetime. From some skulls, it could be judged that they were still hard and lustrous.

“So many skeletons, all people from the previous era who failed the trial, even beings at the half-step Supreme level.” Lin Fan was shocked.

“Buzz!”

Suddenly, the ground trembled, and a gate of light rose in front, with surging Chaos light within, ancient and mysterious.

Seeing this, Lin Fan immediately understood that behind the gate of light was the true stone chamber, so he strode forward.

…

Outside, one person and one turtle were still eagerly waiting, gazing at the flickering soul lamp.

“This Fellow Daoist is quite strange; the soul lamp is bright one moment, dim the next, playing with heartbeats!”

“Or… did he actually die long ago, with only a wisp of remnant soul, an unextinguished obsession…”

The white turtle whispered, chattering endlessly, completely different from the tranquil and serene Snow-clothed Woman on its back.

It could be said that this was a combination with a huge contrast: a mischievous turtle and a proper Fairy, somehow brought together.

This made Qing Yi want to punch it. The white turtle’s mouth was truly vile. Although watching the soul lamp was distressing, the person might not necessarily be gone!

“Alas… little Fairy, don’t worry, I will take care of my friend’s wife myself, you have no worries!

Even if he dies in there, I will take good care of you. At most, I’ll just carry one more.” The white turtle said earnestly.

“You shut up, are you asking for a beating?!” Qing Yi was furious. Even she, with her Fairy demeanor, couldn’t help but break down now.

What kind of Longevity Medicine was this ghost? It was truly despicable. Who would comfort someone like this, not thinking of anything positive?

“Chih!”

Suddenly, the soul lamp shone brightly, making the white turtle’s eyes widen because it knew what this meant.

“Oh my god, he passed the trial, surpassing the ancients! Does he have the bearing of a Great Emperor?!” The white turtle shouted, incredulous.
