Chapter 955: A Bountiful Harvest

"Ancestor Wan Jiao, Demon God Han Tian, why the rush? Let's have a good chat." Lin Fan drifted before two clumps of flesh, a smile on his face.

He hadn't expected two to survive; this wave wasn't a loss.

Ancestor of the Thunder Clan, you did not sacrifice in vain. With your actions, you proved you are stronger than anyone.

A single self-destruction, directly taking down all six peak powerhouses—truly formidable.

Hearing this voice, Ancestor Wan Jiao and Ancestor Han Tian were dumbfounded, then let out mournful roars.

"Human Emperor, we have no grievances. Spare us." Ancestor Wan Jiao begged, "This was all Ancestor of the Thunder Clan's idea. It has nothing to do with us."

"I am an Ancient Clan Demon God. You cannot kill me. If you let me go, I can let bygones be bygones." Demon God Han Tian pleaded.

He hadn't expected things to end like this.

If he had known, he wouldn't have come even if beaten to death.

Everything, everything, was that Ancestor of the Thunder Clan's doing.

"Ah, pitiful." Lin Fan's five fingers spread, grabbing the two clumps of flesh. These were all that remained of the two peak powerhouses.

Even an ordinary person could kill them now, showing how fierce that self-destruction was.

Even peak powerhouses were blown to such a state; even Lin Fan, whose physical body had reached the Great Perfection of the Ancient Realm, might not have been able to withstand it.

Now Ancestor Wan Jiao and Demon God Han Tian had no strength left to resist. They understood their lives were in the Human Emperor's hands.

If they wanted to live, they had to persuade the Human Emperor.

But judging by the current situation, it wouldn't be that simple.

"Human Emperor, what exactly do you want?" Ancestor Wan Jiao was filled with resentment. Once high and mighty, now fallen into the Human Emperor's hands—how could he bear it?

"I don't want anything special—just your lives." Lin Fan laughed cheerfully, his smile looking very sinister.

"Human Emperor, spare me. I will give you endless wealth and boundless power." Demon God Han Tian truly did not want to die; he hadn't lived enough, hadn't transcended yet.

Crack!

The moment Demon God Han Tian spoke, Lin Fan's five fingers clenched, instantly crushing him to dust.

"Ding, congratulations on killing Demon God Han Tian."

"Ding, cultivation level upgraded."

"Cultivation: Ancient Realm High Stage."

In an instant, Lin Fan felt a surge of powerful energy churning within him—the power of invincibility.

His cultivation had increased, which made Lin Fan very pleased.

But the experience needed to advance from Ancient Realm High Stage to Great Perfection was enormous.

"You..." Ancestor Wan Jiao saw the Human Emperor kill Demon God Han Tian, his tone turning terrified, then he begged, "Please, don't kill me, don't kill me."

"From the moment you opposed me, your fate was sealed—to help me reach the peak." Lin Fan sneered and applied slight pressure.

Bang!

Ancestor Wan Jiao's consciousness was obliterated. From now on, there would be no trace of Ancestor Wan Jiao between heaven and earth.

"Ding, congratulations on killing Ancestor Wan Jiao."

"Ding, experience increased..."

A massive amount of experience instantly pushed the experience bar past a small half, but there was still a long way to go before Great Perfection.

But to Lin Fan, that didn't matter. Great Perfection was inevitable; he would reach that level soon.

The only slight disappointment was that neither Ancestor Wan Jiao nor Ancestor Han Tian dropped any items. Apparently, during the self-destruction, they had used divine objects to withstand Ancestor of the Thunder Clan's blast, and everything had been annihilated.

Not even a single martial art technique—a real pity.

"There are two more peak powerhouses. I wonder if they're still alive."

Lin Fan continued searching, but to his slight disappointment, after a thorough search, he still couldn't find the remains of the remaining two peak powerhouses.

Eh!

Just as Lin Fan was feeling disappointed, a red light ahead caught his attention.

Whoosh!

When Lin Fan flashed over, he couldn't help but regret.

"Too late. This Lucifer is dead." The clump of flesh was unmistakably Lucifer, but he hadn't survived either.

Then Lin Fan searched further until, in a dead corner, he found the remains of Demon God Ji Tian.

But Demon God Ji Tian was also dead, not a trace of life.

This left Lin Fan very disappointed.

Overall, however, this scheme had been worth it.

He had directly killed three peak powerhouses, raised his cultivation to High Stage, and was close to Great Perfection.

As long as he worked hard, reaching Great Perfection wouldn't be a problem.

Lin Fan looked at this void space, then shook his head. "Accidentally destroyed it like this—quite tragic."

Without any hesitation, he directly dove into the void and flew into the distance.

But what Lin Fan didn't know was that after he left,

a pair of eyes in the void stared in terror at the scene before them.

The Seven Sage Old Dog, seeing what had happened, was already scared shitless.

He hadn't expected the Human Emperor to be so influential, directly tricking so many peak powerhouses to their deaths.

Freak, an absolute freak.

He had originally wanted to fight Lin Fan to the death, but now the Seven Sage Old Dog swore that until the situation was ripe, he would never fight this treacherous Human Emperor.

Although the Seven Sage Old Dog had submitted to that mysterious figure, he wouldn't become someone else's dog. He was plotting, waiting for the final moment to come.

All seven peak powerhouses had fallen.

This news hadn't spread.

But to many Ancient Clan Demon Gods, they had already sensed the fall of Demon God Ji Tian and Demon God Han Tian.

Every demon god and peak powerhouse felt heavy-hearted.

This was the most serious incident in countless eons.

...

At that moment, Lin Fan was traveling through the void. That place was no longer worth staying.

Lin Fan felt that his strength was now enough to go head-to-head with many peak powerhouses.

Constant avoidance had made those peak powerhouses think he was easy to bully.

Now Lin Fan felt it was time to show his strength, suppress everything, and make all peak powerhouses understand that he wasn't to be trifled with.

In the Xuanhuang Realm, many prodigies had emerged among the humans, but for them to reach the Divine Heaven Tenth Layer Eternal Divine Throne Realm might not be easy within the Xuanhuang Realm.

He had to establish a foothold and let humanity stand firm in this world.

Just as Lin Fan was pondering these things, a distant aura caught his attention.

This aura—wasn't it that cheap master of his?
