Chapter 613 The Sixth Martial God, Human King

“You?” Huang Tian scoffed. “You’re not qualified. Don’t think you can fight me to a standstill and then spout nonsense. Before the Celestial Heart Seal, you are nothing!”

He didn't believe for a moment that Yun Fan had the strength to kill him. To him, Yun Fan was merely boasting.

“If you don’t believe me, try it!” Yun Fan said.

With that, Yun Fan stepped forward and attacked Huang Tian directly in front of everyone.

Huang Tian was furious. This brat was really pushing his luck.

Before fleeing, he immediately unleashed an attack on Yun Fan. He was determined to teach Yun Fan a lesson he would never forget.

Unexpectedly, his full-powered attack, as it neared Yun Fan, was shattered by a single move from Yun Fan.

“Pathetic!” Yun Fan said dismissively.

“What’s going on?” Huang Tian was stunned. If Yun Fan had suppressed him last time, this was an outright annihilation. He had been completely crushed by Yun Fan.

Qing Tian also didn’t expect that in such a short time, Yun Fan had become outrageously powerful.

At this moment, Yun Fan unleashed another attack on Huang Tian.

“Ah!” A heart-wrenching scream escaped Huang Tian as the force struck him. He had no power to resist Yun Fan’s move.

Huang Tian no longer dared to linger and wanted to escape back to the Huang Tian Domain, seal it completely, and await rescue from the Heavens.

However, Yun Fan was faster. The moment Huang Tian entered the turbulent flow of space-time, Yun Fan shattered the void and forcibly dragged him back.

*Boom!*

Yun Fan’s attack landed on him. Huang Tian’s hair stood on end, and he lost all sense of direction. He was utterly humiliated.

Yun Fan was truly a unique existence in history. Even the mighty Huang Tian was nothing in his eyes.

“Has he always been this strong?” Qing Tian asked Huan Ling in shock, his eyes filled with apprehension.

“Yes,” Huan Ling nodded. Yun Fan had always been this strong. In fact, he was even stronger in bed.

At this moment, Yun Fan declared, “Huang Tian, you are but a speck of dust in my eyes, destined to be crushed by me, and only fit to be crushed by me!”

This was Yun Fan’s attitude.

Huang Tian was exasperated. He hadn’t expected Yun Fan to be so monstrous, achieving enlightenment in such an unorthodox way. It was truly terrifying. Even Heavenly-level experts were no match for Yun Fan and were simply crushed.

Yun Fan stepped forward, his pressure relentless. Huang Tian had nowhere to run.

“I surrender!” Huang Tian said to Yun Fan.

“Surrender is useless!” Yun Fan’s eyes turned cold. “I will kill you!”

Huang Tian’s expression changed. “I have pledged allegiance to the Heavens. Are you trying to oppose the Heavens? Although you are powerful, you are no match for the Heavens!”

But Yun Fan replied, “I even dare to kill Heavenly Envoys of the Heavens. What are you?”

Only then did Huang Tian realize that Yun Fan was not only incredibly powerful but also incredibly audacious.

“If you spare me, I will surrender to you!” Huang Tian said, humbling himself to save his life.

Unfortunately, Yun Fan never trusted people like him. If he truly accepted Huang Tian’s surrender, who knew when Huang Tian might betray him. Therefore, Yun Fan absolutely would not accept Huang Tian’s surrender.

“Will you end yourself, or shall I help you?” Yun Fan said coldly.

Huang Tian was enraged. Yun Fan had accepted Qing Tian’s surrender but not his. The nature of their surrenders was different. Qing Tian had surrendered before the great battle, pledging allegiance to Yun Fan and opposing the Heavens. But Huang Tian was different. If Yun Fan hadn’t overwhelmed him with his strength, he would never have surrendered.

“It seems you want to perish with me?” Huang Tian said, gritting his teeth. Although he was inferior in skill, he still had his Celestial Heart Seal. If he detonated it, he might be able to take Yun Fan with him.

However, Yun Fan remained unfazed. “You overestimate yourself. You’re not worthy of me perishing with you!”

“You’re seeking death!” Huang Tian roared. Under Yun Fan’s coercion, he detonated the Celestial Heart Seal, amplifying his power to a state beyond peak. He then unleashed an attack on Yun Fan.

“Since you won’t let me live, then neither of us will!” Huang Tian said resentfully.

Indeed, Huang Tian after detonating the Celestial Heart Seal was terrifying and invincible. Yun Fan was startled. If he hadn't condensed his Battle Heaven Seal, he would have been annihilated by Huang Tian. Fortunately, he had already condensed the Battle Heaven Seal, so he was fearless.

Facing Huang Tian’s onslaught, he met the challenge head-on and fought fiercely. Huang Tian was bewildered. He had expected to take Yun Fan down with him after detonating the Celestial Heart Seal, but not only had he failed, Yun Fan had become even more ferocious and invincible. Only then did Huang Tian realize that Yun Fan had, without him realizing it, reached a height he could no longer even gaze upon.

Yun Fan struck decisively, his blows landing on Huang Tian. Even with the Celestial Heart Seal’s power, Huang Tian was repeatedly defeated.

“Why are you so strong?” Huang Tian asked, unwilling to accept it. He had the absolute advantage, so why was Yun Fan still so strong? Even after detonating the Celestial Heart Seal, Huang Tian was no match for him.

“Because I was born strong!” Yun Fan replied. He had endured countless hardships to reach this point. While Huang Tian had also faced challenges, his path had not been as perilous. To others, Yun Fan’s path was a dead end, one they would never dare to tread. Thus, this immense risk had yielded such power, devoid of any luck.

“Die!” Yun Fan struck again, relentlessly crushing Huang Tian. Huang Tian couldn’t hold on any longer, as his Celestial Heart Seal’s power was waning.

As he was about to perish, Yun Fan asked, “Huang Tian, do you regret it?”

“Regret what?” Huang Tian asked coldly.

“Regret opposing me?” Yun Fan sneered.

“I regret your mother…” Before Huang Tian could finish, Yun Fan unleashed a powerful strike, crushing him. The once unattainable Heavenly-level expert, Huang Tian, met his end at Yun Fan’s hands.

Yun Fan stood there, feeling no pressure. Killing Huang Tian had felt as effortless as lifting a hand. Heavenly-level experts were truly insignificant in his eyes.

Huang Tian’s death sent shockwaves through the crowd, all awestruck by Yun Fan’s power. Qing Tian, in particular, had witnessed the entire battle. Even Huang Tian, with his detonated Celestial Heart Seal, had been easily subdued by Yun Fan. If he hadn’t surrendered earlier, his fate would have been no better. They were on entirely different levels.

Yun Fan returned. “Huang Tian is dead!” These few words were met with thunderous cheers from the crowd. This meant that with Yun Fan’s rise, the era of Heavenly-level experts ruling supreme had ended. It also meant that even the life-devouring Heavens might not be an invincible myth. For Yun Fan had truly become a once-in-an-eternity existence, bolstering their confidence in their fight against the Heavens.

The battle concluded amidst the crowd’s acclamations.

After the battle, Qing Tian and Huan Ling were in discussion with Yun Fan.

“Fellow Daoist, I truly never imagined you would be this strong. Had I known, I wouldn’t have endured the humiliation when the Heavenly Envoy visited my territory. I should have killed him!” Qing Tian said, though his words were somewhat insincere. He had been deeply angered by the Heavenly Envoy's arrogance in his palace.

Yun Fan replied, “I have always been this strong. But that’s not important now; we need to focus on how to deal with the Heavens.” That was the most pressing matter.

Huan Ling stated, “I don’t know much about the Heavens. All I know is that the past Heavens all died in battle, whether at the hands of the Heavens or their subordinates remains unknown!” Huan Ling, like Yun Fan, was a descendant of a later era and had limited knowledge of the Heavens.

“Then I know more than you two!” Qing Tian declared.

“What do you mean?” they asked, looking at Qing Tian in confusion.

Qing Tian explained, “The calamity of the Heavens has existed for a long time. The past Azure Heavens of my Azure Heaven Domain have all submitted to the Heavens.”

“What?” Both were genuinely shocked, unaware of how many lives had been lost in the Azure Heaven Domain.

Finally, Qing Tian revealed a secret he had harbored for years. “I was the one who ended the previous Azure Heaven!” he confessed. “That was in the era after the turmoil of the Heavens. The previous Azure Heaven had sacrificed one-third of his domain’s living beings to the Heavens, which incited the public outrage of the Azure Heaven Domain. Many vassal kings, risking their lives, chose to perish with the previous Azure Heaven. Although they couldn’t defeat him, they managed to damage his Celestial Heart Seal. Thus, I seized the opportunity and killed the previous Azure Heaven, achieving my current status!” Qing Tian’s rise had been arduous.

“I once promised my people that I would never follow the path of the previous Azure Heaven. But when the time came, I still embarked on that road! If not for your reminder, which led me back from the brink, how would I be any different from the previous Azure Heaven?” Qing Tian spoke from his heart, making it impossible for him not to be grateful to Yun Fan. If Yun Fan hadn’t dared to resist, he wouldn’t have had the courage to stand with him.

“You’re welcome!” Yun Fan replied. “The important thing is to face our enemy together. I just want to know what the Heavens are and how strong they are.” That was Yun Fan’s primary concern.

Qing Tian explained, “I’m not entirely sure about that either. All I know is that while the Heavens harvest living beings, turning the three domains into their slaughterhouse, they have never appeared themselves, always acting through Heavenly Envoys! Now that the three Heavenly Envoys are dead, the Heavens will surely dispatch stronger entities!”

Yun Fan remarked, “I thought Heavenly-level experts were the pinnacle of cultivation, but it seems that’s not the case!” This was what truly shocked him.

Qing Tian and Huan Ling spoke in unison, “Heavenly-level experts are our limit, but perhaps not the end of the path of cultivation. Your existence proves that Heavenly-level experts are not the end!” Indeed, though Yun Fan was currently at their level, his true combat power far surpassed theirs. Therefore, Yun Fan was undoubtedly beyond them, and the Heavens were surely the strongest.

“In that case, we can only defend passively!” Yun Fan lamented, “I should have left a survivor to ask for details!” Both Qing Tian and Huan Ling understood that rash action without knowing the true strength of the Heavens was unfeasible. The Heavens might be a full level above them, comparable to Yun Fan, or they might be as insignificant as ants in the Heavens’ eyes. Everything was possible.

Qing Tian then proposed, “Now that Huang Tian is dead, I suggest we merge the Azure Heaven Domain, the Azure Heaven Domain, and the Huang Tian Domain into one great world! Will you be the Lord of All Realms, fellow Daoist?” This was Qing Tian’s proposal.

But Yun Fan replied, “I have no interest in fame or fortune!” While the title of Lord of All Realms sounded tempting, and the power it wielded was immense, Yun Fan had never fought for power. Huan Ling was indifferent; as Yun Fan’s wife, she had no objections to him becoming the Lord of All Realms. Naturally, she also supported Yun Fan’s choice. If Yun Fan didn’t become the Lord of All Realms, she wouldn’t try to persuade him. She knew Yun Fan’s ambition lay elsewhere; his sole objective was to eradicate all calamities from the myriad realms. This was Yun Fan’s ultimate goal, and his aspirations were undoubtedly grand.

Qing Tian continued, “Fellow Daoist, don’t refuse so quickly. If you become the Lord of All Realms and gain the faith of the myriad realms, your strength might increase! If you become stronger, you can better protect the myriad realms!” This was Qing Tian’s reasoning. Even Huan Ling, who respected Yun Fan’s wishes, was moved. Perhaps Yun Fan should give it a try. After all, neither she nor Qing Tian could save them; it was a foregone conclusion. But if Yun Fan could rise, that would be a different matter. Thus, Huan Ling also began to persuade Yun Fan.

Under their persuasion, Yun Fan reluctantly agreed. Of course, he wasn’t after the position itself but for the sake of all sentient beings. As expected, in the following years, under Qing Tian and Huan Ling’s orchestration, the Azure Heaven Domain, the Huang Tian Domain, and even the Azure Heaven Domain merged, forming the nascent structure of the myriad realms. Yun Fan, without hesitation, became the Lord of All Realms. With the reinforcement of the myriad realms, Yun Fan finally discovered that the path of cultivation could extend much further. And when he discovered a new path, he was truly terrified. For this new path was the same as the Heavens’ path: devouring countless living beings to break through to new realms. No wonder the Heavens acted this way; this was their ultimate objective. Only then did Yun Fan understand everything. Simultaneously, a thought formed in his mind: he absolutely could not let anyone else become the Lord of All Realms. He could resist this temptation, but others might not. If someone else were in his position, it was uncertain if they would resist devouring the myriad realms to advance their cultivation. Therefore, Yun Fan decided to keep this secret buried forever. He now knew the secret of the Heavens. At the same time, he knew the Heavens had to die. If the Heavens didn’t die, their path of devouring living beings would not cease. As it stood, he himself might not be able to protect himself. What if his descendants in the next era encountered the Heavens devouring living beings? Thus, Yun Fan resolved to deal with it himself, ensuring the calamity of the Heavens would not be passed on to future generations. However, he had no idea where the Heavens were hiding. By his calculations, a hundred years had passed since he killed the Heavenly Envoys. During this time, the Heavens had remained inactive, which was beyond his expectations. When would the Heavens make their move?

Then, one day, many years after Yun Fan’s coronation as Lord of All Realms, the Heavens finally made their move.

“Another Heavenly Envoy?” Yun Fan sneered. “Are there no capable individuals in the Heavens, only sending such trash?” Without a doubt, Yun Fan held the Heavens in contempt for not sending a competent fighter. They had sent yet another envoy, whose strength was not significantly different from the previous three. However, this envoy stated, “You dare to defy the will of the Heavens and establish yourself as the Lord of All Realms. The Heavens will not let you go!”

“Are you finished?” Yun Fan asked dismissively. “If so, you can die!”

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Envoy replied, “Not yet. To deal with you, the Heavens don't need to act personally. The Martial God awaits you beyond the myriad realms. He will teach you how to behave!”

“Lead the way!” Yun Fan said contemptuously, wanting to see how strong this opponent was. It was better if it were beyond the myriad realms, so their battle wouldn’t devastate the realms. After all, he was now the Lord of the myriad realms.

“Could this be a trap?” Huan Ling asked Yun Fan. Qing Tian added, “Why don’t we accompany you?” If all three of them together were defeated, whether it was a trap or not, it wouldn’t matter.

“Alright!” Yun Fan agreed. Afterward, the three of them left the myriad realms with the Heavenly Envoy and entered the void beyond. Although it would be impossible for martial artists below the Heavenly level to traverse the myriad realms in half an eternity, for Yun Fan, the Lord of the myriad realms, reaching any destination was instantaneous. The Heavenly Envoy’s swift action was due to the power of the Heavens empowering him. Therefore, even though he was not a Heavenly-level expert, his speed was comparable to one. However, within the myriad realms, everything was under Yun Fan’s control. If the envoy dared to make any move, Yun Fan could kill him with a single thought.

Soon, they saw a tall, imposing man standing at the end of the void. The man was incredibly powerful, with a pair of golden wings on his back. The aura he exuded surpassed that of a Heavenly-level expert, which was truly terrifying. This was the first time Yun Fan had encountered a being stronger than a Heavenly-level expert. For him, this was undoubtedly a formidable opponent.

At this moment, the other man also saw Yun Fan, looking at him with curiosity. He hadn’t expected that a being surpassing Heavenly-level experts would emerge from the myriad realms.

“Martial God, it’s him!” the Heavenly Envoy told the tall man. The man waved his hand, and the Heavenly Envoy was instantly killed. He hadn't expected that the one who killed him wasn't Yun Fan but one of his own.

At this, he walked towards Yun Fan. “You are the one who dares to defy the Heavens?”

“That’s right!” Yun Fan replied. “And who are you?”

“I am the Seventh Martial God under the Heavens, Heavenly Extreme Martial God!” he declared his name. Yun Fan then realized that the Heavens were far more powerful than he had imagined. He immediately stepped forward.

“Others submit to the Heavens and help them harm all beings, but I, Yun Fan, will never!”

“You don’t need to tell me your name, because you are about to die!” Heavenly Extreme said to Yun Fan. “No one can resist the Heavens, and your resistance is utterly foolish!”

“Is that so?” Yun Fan replied. “Unfortunately, you probably won’t be able to kill me!”

“You overestimate yourself!” Heavenly Extreme said to Yun Fan. “As for not acting within the myriad realms, it’s to avoid harming those ants. Those ants are very important to the Heavens! As for killing you, it’s too simple!” In the next moment, two streams of power attacked. One was easily blocked by Yun Fan, but the other Qing Tian and Huan Ling couldn’t fully block, and they were sent flying. Fortunately, they were Heavenly-level experts, so while they couldn’t withstand the attack, they survived.

“You two retreat. Leave this to me!” Yun Fan said.

“Understood!” The two retreated, leaving the battlefield to Yun Fan and Heavenly Extreme. Heavenly Extreme Martial God said to Yun Fan, “You are excellent, but daring to rebel against the Heavens, no matter how excellent you are, you will ultimately become a pile of bones!” Without further ado, he attacked Yun Fan. For him, dealing with Yun Fan was the top priority. Yun Fan, seeing this, also attacked Heavenly Extreme Martial God, wanting to see how strong the Martial God truly was.

*Boom!*

Their powers clashed in the void. Their strength was enough to destroy heaven and earth. Even this void could not withstand their battle and began to shatter. After dozens of exchanges, Yun Fan was at a disadvantage. Heavenly Extreme Martial God’s strength was far beyond their expectations.

“How is this possible?” Qing Tian and Huan Ling frowned. Without Yun Fan, they would have long despaired against such a powerful enemy. But because of Yun Fan, their pressure had eased. However, they hadn’t expected that even the supremely powerful Yun Fan would be at a disadvantage in his fight with Heavenly Extreme Martial God. How terrifying this was. At that moment, Heavenly Extreme Martial God repelled Yun Fan with a single move.

“You are not good enough!” Heavenly Extreme Martial God said. “Although you have forged your own path, it is a dead end. Even I can easily subdue you. You are simply overestimating yourself to dare to oppose the Heavens!” Facing his taunts, Yun Fan calmly replied, “If being at a disadvantage in your eyes means easy subdual, then you have too little understanding of combat strength!”

“Oh?” Heavenly Extreme Martial God scoffed. “What tricks can you still pull?” Undoubtedly, he looked down on Yun Fan, never believing Yun Fan could threaten him.

“Just you wait!” At this moment, Yun Fan unleashed his peak combat power, erupting with his powerful Battle Heaven energy, entering a blood-boiling state. As his combat power surged, Heavenly Extreme Martial God’s eyes widened in surprise. He hadn’t expected Yun Fan to have such potential. This was becoming interesting. He spread his golden wings, channeling his Martial God power to its limit, transitioning from a regular battle to a desperate fight for survival. In their eyes, only one person would emerge alive from this battle – themselves. Therefore, at this moment, both maximized their attributes.

Qing Tian and Huan Ling watched in horror. If even Yun Fan was struggling this much, they needed to accelerate the operation of the myriad realms. They needed to channel the faith of the myriad realms to Yun Fan, otherwise, they would have no chance of victory against the Heavens.

Yun Fan unleashed a punch in the void, imbued with powerful Battle Heaven attributes, which Heavenly Extreme blocked with his wings. Simultaneously, his golden feathers assailed Yun Fan, each one piercing his body.

*Puff!*

Yun Fan spat out a mouthful of blood. The injuries sustained this time were undoubtedly severe. At this moment, Yun Fan, with all his might, unleashed his Battle Heaven Seal, severing one of Heavenly Extreme’s wings.

“Ah!” Both let out earth-shattering screams. At their level, such situations were rare. Being in such a desperate state meant they were both severely injured, and the price would be considerable. At this moment, both Yun Fan and Heavenly Extreme showed expressions of apprehension and shock. Neither had expected the other to inflict such damage.

Yun Fan then declared, “Heavenly Extreme, your strength is immense, and you are willing to fight desperately, but I am no weaker. You can heavily injure me, and I can heavily injure you!” Heavenly Extreme glared at Yun Fan in anger. He hadn’t expected that he, who was merely supposed to casually eliminate Yun Fan, an ungrateful brat, would end up with a broken wing. Even after recovering, his combat power would be significantly reduced.

“You cannot win, I tell you!” Heavenly Extreme Martial God channeled the power of the Heavens, rapidly recovering. Yun Fan was no weaker either; he used Battle Heaven energy to accelerate his recovery. But his speed was far inferior to Heavenly Extreme Martial God’s. If this continued, he would surely die. Fortunately, at this moment, Huan Ling and Qing Tian began to channel the power of the myriad realms to sustain Yun Fan, and his recovery speed finally matched Heavenly Extreme Martial God’s. In a flash, both recovered from their injuries, but their combat power was significantly reduced. After all, they had risked their lives once before. Facing a powerful enemy again, even Yun Fan and Heavenly Extreme felt a sense of helplessness. Their overall strength was comparable, and further fighting would likely result in the same outcome. However, for their respective beliefs, they did not give up. Another desperate battle commenced. Afterward, they continued to fight desperately in the void, a tedious exchange of blows, where one heavily injured the other. Finally, their battle ended again. Heavenly Extreme Martial God’s wings were completely broken, while Yun Fan’s body was riddled with holes. This time, both were in mortal peril.

Just as the battle was about to subside, Yun Fan, without hesitation, unleashed his Battle Heaven Seal, striking Heavenly Extreme Martial God.

*Hmph!*

Heavenly Extreme Martial God was once again heavily injured, his condition rapidly deteriorating. Yun Fan let out a long sigh of relief. He had been at a distinct disadvantage, but ultimately, through his indomitable will, he had turned the tide. Now, he still had the strength to fight, while Heavenly Extreme was completely incapacitated. One could say their vital energy pools were incredibly deep.

Yun Fan then said to Heavenly Extreme Martial God, “You’re not that great either. At least I’m the one who laughed last!” Although he was staggering, Yun Fan was overjoyed. Heavenly Extreme couldn’t even muster the strength to stand. Heavenly Extreme was furious.

“Brat, don’t get cocky. I am a Martial God. Even if you defeat me, what does it matter? In the eyes of the Heavens, you are just an ant!”

“Are you stalling for time?” Yun Fan sneered. “I won’t give you the chance to stall. Prepare to die!” He wouldn’t act like other villains, spewing a lot of nonsense before the end of a fight, only to be counter-killed. He was the protagonist; theoretically, he wouldn’t have issues even if he spoke a lot, but for safety, he decided to end the battle quickly. The ability to slay a Martial God meant Yun Fan himself had reached the realm of a Martial God.

Unexpectedly, Heavenly Extreme Martial God said, “Of course, I’m not stalling. There’s no need to. You’re finished!”

“Is that so?” Yun Fan sneered, preparing to attack. Suddenly, he heard two screams from behind him, one from Qing Tian and one from Huan Ling. They had been channeling the power of the myriad realms to Yun Fan with all their might when they were ambushed. Instantly, they were heavily injured, and behind them appeared another Martial God, a handsome young man. This meant they were not only severely wounded but also captured by this Martial God.

In an instant, Yun Fan sensed that the situation was dire. He quickly approached Heavenly Extreme, taking him under control and confronting the newcomer. In his current state, returning to rescue them would be futile, so he didn’t hesitate to capture Heavenly Extreme, intending to exchange him for them. At the same time, his heart was heavy. He was already severely wounded, and now a peak Martial God had appeared. How could he fight? He had almost died defeating Heavenly Extreme, and he had used the power of the myriad realms. Now, with another peak Martial God appearing, and him being at critically low health, and Qing Tian and Huan Ling, who provided him with replenishment, now prisoners, the situation was worse than ever. For him, this was a desperate situation.

“Brat, are you despairing?” Heavenly Extreme said weakly, sneering. “He is the Sixth Martial God, Human King, a butcher of all!” Before he could finish, Yun Fan punched him in the chest.

*Bang!*

*Hmph!* Heavenly Extreme grunted. At this, Human King said to Yun Fan, “What? You want to exchange these two ants for him?”

“That’s right!” Yun Fan replied.

Unexpectedly, Human King sneered and struck Qing Tian and Huan Ling again. If not for the Celestial Heart Seals on them, they would have surely perished. Instantly, after being heavily injured, the two fainted.

“You’re seeking death!” Yun Fan roared and punched Heavenly Extreme’s head, causing blood to pour from his seven facial orifices.

“You can continue!” Human King said with a smile, seemingly unconcerned about Heavenly Extreme’s predicament. Heavenly Extreme quickly said, “Human King, have you had enough? Are you going to watch me die?” Human King smiled. “Since this ant wants to play, I’ll humor him. I didn’t expect you to be the one to quit first!” Then, he turned to Yun Fan and said, “Release him, and I will release these two ants!”

However, Yun Fan replied, “Releasing him is not a problem, but I can’t trust you to release them honestly!” Human King gave him a feeling of baseness and shamelessness; such a person could not be trusted.

“So, you want to stalemate?” Human King mocked. “These two ants can’t last long. If they don’t receive treatment soon, their seals will shatter!” Yun Fan said, “Let me pass with Heavenly Extreme, and then I will release Heavenly Extreme!” This was Yun Fan’s condition.

“Alright! No problem!” Human King moved aside. Yun Fan then brought the severely injured Heavenly Extreme Martial God to the unconscious duo. Instantly, Yun Fan tore open a void tunnel and pushed them through. Once they reached the myriad realms, their recovery would be rapid with the reinforcement of the myriad realms’ power. As for Yun Fan, his escape route was blocked by Human King.

At this, Human King said to Yun Fan, “Can you release him now? You know, you have very few choices at this point!”

“Release me quickly!” Heavenly Extreme also said angrily to Yun Fan.

Yun Fan replied, “Releasing you is not a problem, but you must retreat!” In his peak state, he could fight Human King, but in his current condition, he was no match for Human King.

“Your demands are too many!” Human King stepped forward and said to Yun Fan, “I hate people who go back on their word the most. Whether you kill him or not, it makes no difference to me!” In an instant, he attacked. The powerful force struck down, but Yun Fan used Heavenly Extreme to block it.

“Ah!” Heavenly Extreme cried out. After taking Human King’s full-power blow, he was on the verge of death. In fact, whether Yun Fan released Heavenly Extreme or not, the outcome was the same. Therefore, at this moment, if he could kill a Martial God, it would be a gain. However, at this moment, as he himself was also hit by this force, Heavenly Extreme was sent flying.

“Kill him, quickly help me kill him!” Heavenly Extreme Martial God yelled with his last breath. At this moment, no one wanted Yun Fan dead more than him. His rage had reached its zenith.

“You talk too much!” Human King punched Heavenly Extreme Martial God. Heavenly Extreme froze. He never expected Human King to attack him. Before he could react, Human King attacked again, completely shattering his Martial God Dao fruit.

“You…” Heavenly Extreme looked at Human King in disbelief. To his death, he never imagined Human King would treat him this way. Not only him, but even Yun Fan was stunned. Afterward, Human King unleashed another full-power blow, and Heavenly Extreme Martial God vanished completely, ceasing to exist. At this moment, Yun Fan stood frozen, wondering why Human King had done this.

Human King then asked Yun Fan, “Are you surprised?”

“Yes! I am quite surprised!” Yun Fan replied, confused. He had expected Human King to vent all his anger on him but not to kill Heavenly Extreme Martial God directly.

Human King said, “Surprise is the right reaction!”

“I think we can cooperate!” he said, walking up to Yun Fan.

“Cooperate on what?” Yun Fan asked, confused, and at the same time, relieved. This meant he wouldn’t die. Otherwise, at his weakened state, facing a full-power Human King, who was even stronger than him, would have been certain death.

Human King continued, “Of course, by giving me your seal and Dao fruit!” Clearly, from Yun Fan’s battle with Heavenly Extreme Martial God, he had noticed the uniqueness of Yun Fan’s power. He was a far-sighted individual who knew Yun Fan’s power was not inferior to the Heavens’ power, at least in terms of raw energy. In terms of realm, Yun Fan was like a child compared to the Heavens. Therefore, at this moment, he wanted to obtain Yun Fan’s seal and Dao fruit. To conceal this secret, he had directly killed Heavenly Extreme Martial God, revealing him to be an ambitious and unscrupulous person.

Yun Fan replied, “If I give you my power, how will I live?”

“I don’t care!” Human King said. “As far as you are concerned, I have already given you the utmost respect. If you refuse, I will have to act personally, and then you won’t even have a chance to linger!” In his opinion, if Yun Fan readily handed over his Dao fruit and seal, he would merely become a cripple but would live. If he acted personally, Yun Fan would not even have a chance to survive.

Yun Fan said, “It seems even the subordinates of the Heavens are not entirely honest. However, I will not hand it over!”

“In that case, I can only take it myself!” With that, Human King attacked, heading straight for Yun Fan. The destructive power of this attack was immense. Yun Fan was caught off guard by this turn of events, but he still engaged in a desperate fight with Human King. With his Battle Heaven Seal as the core, he entered a state of desperate combat. However, Human King disdained him, seeing Yun Fan as merely a cornered beast struggling to survive. There was no need to worry about any complications. Indeed, after a few exchanges, Yun Fan was defeated. Just as he was about to strip Yun Fan of his seal and Dao fruit, he discovered that Yun Fan’s power was integrated and could not be separated. Therefore, he knocked Yun Fan unconscious and took him away.
