Chapter 642: Rolling Over Everything

Wu Tianhai, Qianxue, and the others were also filled with curiosity, wondering who this person could be. And judging by Junior Brother Ye's expression, he seemed to be someone of great importance.

“Everyone, listen up. Don’t be too shocked to speak later.” Ye Tao felt the need to build up the atmosphere and cleared his throat a few times.

“Hurry up, stop being mysterious.”

“If you don’t speak up, Junior Brother, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” Qianxue’s face hardened, as if she would cut him down if he held back any longer.

“Fine, I’ll talk. Why so fierce?” Ye Tao was a bit helpless. His own strength was too weak, and he was completely overwhelmed without a word to say.

“This person—I didn’t recognize him at first, but the more I looked, the more familiar he seemed. After thinking carefully, isn’t he the Human Emperor Lin Fan?” Ye Tao said.

“The Human Emperor Lin Fan?” For a moment, everyone didn’t react, recalling the name slowly.

“Oh, come on. Three years ago, the human who killed the Ancient Clan’s supreme primordial incarnation.” Ye Tao was a bit exasperated. Were his senior brothers and sisters idiots? He had said it so clearly, and they still had to think?

“Ah!”

Now that Ye Tao had been so explicit, if they still didn’t know, they really were idiots.

Qianxue’s expression changed drastically, her face full of disbelief. “What? He’s the Human Emperor Lin Fan, that peerless powerhouse?”

Wu Tianhai’s face turned pale, and he looked at Ye Tao with lingering fear. “I just rejected his goodwill.”

“Mm.” Ye Tao looked at the senior brother’s pale face and smiled inwardly, but nodded very seriously. “Senior Brother, when I heard you reject the great one’s kindness, I was scared out of my wits.”

“But I smoothed things over for you. It’s fine, no need to worry.” Ye Tao said calmly.

Although I’m not as strong as you, my insight is still much better.

Seeing the senior brother’s expression, Qianxue couldn’t help but comfort him. “Senior Brother, the Human Emperor wouldn’t care about such things. Isn’t that right, Junior Brother?”

“Right, Senior Sister is correct. Why would the Human Emperor care about that?” Ye Tao nodded.

“Then what should we do when the Human Emperor comes out?” Wu Tianhai calmed down a bit, but was still nervous.

The Human Emperor was a famous figure in the Ancient Saint Realm. That battle three years ago, though not intense, everyone saw the Ancient Clan’s supreme being ‘Jie’ die at the hands of the Human Emperor.

This event was a thrilling boost for the countless races.

At this moment, everyone turned their gaze to Junior Brother Ye, as if he were their pillar of support.

Seeing the looks from his senior brothers and sisters, Ye Tao couldn’t help but lift his head.

“From my observation, the Human Emperor spoke to us so calmly, so he must not care about titles and doesn’t want to be recognized. So when he comes out, I’ll act just like before—whatever you do, don’t show any excitement.”

“Ah, the Human Emperor is the new idol of all living beings in the Ancient Saint Realm. We’re lucky to see him once. Even just talking about it later will be a huge honor.”

Ye Tao was very excited, feeling for the first time how clever he was.

The others around nodded silently, feeling that Junior Brother Ye’s reasoning made sense. They would do just that.

Inside the secret realm.

Lin Fan pressed forward, completely overwhelming everything.

The secret realm containing the primordial metal was beyond the Ancient Clan’s control. The chaotic void currents formed a natural barrier, impartial and merciless—anyone who entered would be torn to shreds if they couldn’t withstand it.

“Living being, this is no place for you. Get out!” At that moment, in a sea of metal essence, metal essence spirits roared angrily, each gleaming with golden light, their sharp aura cutting through everything, as if tearing the void itself.

The metal essence spirits here varied in strength, but like the countless races, they had leaders.

Behind a group of metal essence spirits, a powerful one, clad in golden armor and wielding a longsword, exuded a sharp, cutting aura.

“Such a formidable living being. Among the primordial five elements, the spirits born from primordial metal are probably the strongest, masters of slaughter.” The moment Lin Fan approached the metal essence sea, he felt sharp auras whistling toward him.

If a low-level cultivator were here, they’d be riddled with holes.

But for Lin Fan, these sharp auras were negligible, causing no harm at all.

Lin Fan took a step forward, reached out with a palm, and with a rumble, the void collapsed as he grabbed toward the group of metal essence spirits.

The metal essence spirits roared in fury, but under Lin Fan’s palm, they couldn’t resist and all turned into pure primordial metal.

With Lin Fan’s current strength, these spirits were like ants, not even able to put up a fight.

In the Ancient Saint Realm, few cultivators needed the primordial five elements for their practice. Even if some techniques required them, only a tiny amount was needed.

But for Lin Fan, the transformation of “Demon City” was crucial, and it required a massive amount of primordial five elements. Not harvesting all of them would clearly be insufficient.

Just as Lin Fan cleared out this group of metal essence spirits, a sharp sound suddenly shot toward him.

The sound turned into an indestructible sharp sword, piercing through the void toward Lin Fan.

“Vile living being, how dare you slaughter my subjects!”

Deep within the “Metal Essence Sea,” a towering palace stood, and a thousand-zhang-tall golden giant roared incessantly.

Divine Heaven Fifth Stage: Primordial Spirit Realm.

For primordial five-element beings, this was already an extremely powerful primordial spirit.

“Borrow you for a while.” Lin Fan didn’t hesitate. He struck out with a palm, shaking heaven and earth.

“Demon City” spun out, and an ancient great demon descended mightily, opening its mouth wide, its vast power sweeping across the world.

Swallowing mountains and rivers, endless power surged forth.

The entire secret realm shook violently.

“Become a part of this king.” The ancient great demon’s eyes sparkled as it continuously devoured.

For Lin Fan’s current cultivation, killing these primordial spirits was as easy as crushing an ant, with no difficulty at all.

“Metal of the five elements, endless generation, the way of metal slaughter.”

“Slash!”

The golden giant could no longer bear it. He raised his sword and charged, his massive body filling the secret realm. With a flash of sword light, it was indestructible.

But when he reached the ancient great demon, the demon grabbed him with one hand and threw him into its mouth.

Crunch!

The sound of metal breaking. The golden giant, in the ancient great demon’s mouth, turned into a thick river of metal, eventually merging into “Demon City.”

“This place no longer needs to exist.” Lin Fan spread his fingers, and his five fingers grew larger, while the secret realm shrank, eventually turning into a point of light that he grasped in his hand.

Invincible strength, crushing everything.

Outside, the group didn’t know what was happening inside, but they noticed that the secret realm had vanished before their eyes.

And then, they saw a figure walking out slowly.

One by one, their faces showed terror.

The formidable primordial metal secret realm—gone just like that.

This… this…
