Chapter 1523: Harmony Is Most Precious
Crown Prince Huai Zun’s eyes were sinister, sharp as sword beams, and the golden feathered robe on his body trembled. His heart was filled with boundless killing intent. “Great Sage Jin Yu and a group of powerful experts, every single living life, all died at your hands. Your crimes are heinous, too numerous to record!”
Ye Fan glanced at him, ignored him, and let him roar, acting like an outsider.
“As the Human Sacred Body, you think yourself highly accomplished. Do you truly believe no one in this world can subdue you? You must know that beyond every man, there is another man; beyond every sky, there is another sky!” Crown Prince Huai Zun’s voice grew even colder.
Ye Fan nodded. “I deeply agree. The universe is vast; beyond every man, there is another man; beyond every sky, there is another sky.”
The Dragon Horse nodded in agreement. “Indeed, we once saw an old man chopping firewood in the stars. We didn’t know his name, but his realm was close to that of a Great Emperor.”
Clearly, they ignored the first part, directly twisted it, and made a turn, making Crown Prince Huai Zun feel like he had punched cotton.
Especially when he heard the surrounding crowd discussing endlessly, all talking about “beyond every sky, there is another sky,” as if they had forgotten he was talking about the blood feud of the Golden Crow Clan, the veins on his forehead bulged with rage.
“You killed the heroes of my Golden Crow lineage, countless wronged souls. This enmity is irreconcilable!” Crown Prince Huai Zun of the Golden Crow Clan had endless killing intent in his heart. Too many had died, and he wished he could immediately strike down the person before him.
“Who wants to reconcile?” Ye Fan asked in surprise.
Huai Zun’s face instantly turned extremely ugly. He had been impassioned, full of grief and indignation, rebuking here, yet the other party was so calm and indifferent.
“Let’s settle this between us.” Huai Zun couldn’t stand this kind of disdain any longer and couldn’t help but roar out.
This place immediately became noisy. Many people surged over. The Human Sacred Body had appeared, and a Golden Crow Clan strongman wanted revenge. Such explosive news was bound to cause a sensation.
Ye Fan was surprised. “Aren’t you waiting for your clan’s Quasi-Emperor to appear? Do you dare to fight me yourself?”
What kind of expression was that? Coupled with this tone, it made Crown Prince Huai Zun choke on a mouthful of blood, almost spitting it out. This was too insulting, too belittling of him!
And at this moment, Ye Fan had already stood up and was walking quickly toward him, like a bear seeing honey, a civet smelling fish—completely excited and acting as if he had him cornered.
“You are arrogant!” Crown Prince Huai Zun was furious. The other party was definitely doing this deliberately. Every word and action was frivolous, intentionally provoking and humiliating him.
“Isn’t this all your suggestion? Are you afraid, unwilling to fight?” Ye Fan asked in confusion.
The surroundings were chaotic. Countless eyes were watching, and an endless crowd gathered, all clamoring for them to duel.
The world loved chaos, hoping the matter would escalate. They watched from the sidelines, eager to see a dragon-and-tiger struggle. After all, one was the Human Sacred Body, and the other had a Quasi-Emperor backing him. In the end, it would inevitably break the sky.
“Fine, today I will fight you. I will set up a great formation. Do you dare to come and break it?” Crown Prince Huai Zun shouted.
With that, he directly descended from the clouds, landing toward the Central Domain earth, intending to set up a killing formation to fight Ye Fan and settle the score.
“Accept the challenge!”
A group of people clamored for Ye Fan to agree. Many directly followed down, wanting to witness this turbulent event.
“Brother Ye is a dragon among men, almost invincible under heaven. He naturally won’t refuse a challenge from his peers. I, your younger brother, am willing to go watch and gain some experience,” Shi Zhongxuan said.
Weighty figures like him left their seats one after another and followed down. This place suddenly stirred up a storm, drawing the attention of many strong experts. Even some Great Sages were alarmed, naturally including the important figures in the central hall.
The crowd either rode divine rainbows or stepped on auspicious clouds, descending toward the earth.
This was a wilderness, overgrown with thorns, with uneven terrain, far from magnificent, but at this moment, it was packed with people.
Huai Zun’s face was gloomy. Without a word, a banner after another appeared in his hand—some apricot-yellow, some blue-purple, and some blood-red... Flames blazed, soaring thirty thousand zhang high!
The crowd was immediately startled. These formation banners were definitely extraordinary. At a glance, they couldn’t discern their depth, but they were surely no ordinary items. Combined like this, they emitted a terrifying pressure.
“Is this comparable to a Great Sage? This formation is certainly not simple. It’s likely a top-tier Great Sage killing formation.”
“If the Human Sacred Body doesn’t use an Imperial Artifact, entering it won’t be advantageous.”
The crowd murmured among themselves, all feeling that this formation was extraordinary. It should have been a forbidden killing formation painstakingly researched by a Golden Crow Clan Great Sage, with the banners refined and given to Crown Prince Huai Zun.
“This formation’s mysteries are unfathomable, seemingly containing a shocking killing aura,” Ji Ziyue whispered. She had a special physique, most sensitive to all kinds of worldly origins, and immediately had a bad premonition.
Ye Fan nodded. He tried to activate the Green Copper Cauldron, and it trembled slightly—and this was before even entering the formation!
“On the surface, it looks like a Great Sage killing formation, but that’s just a cover. The center of the formation is likely a Quasi-Emperor killing formation. After all, their clan has a living Golden Crow Great Emperor!”
Ye Fan stared at the formation, examining it repeatedly. The other party wanted to lull him into complacency, then trap and kill him once he entered.
Boom!
Suddenly, a great battle erupted in the sky. Great Sages, unable to agree, finally came to blows, all from outside the domain.
In the central heavenly palace, for the interests of the various clans, no one yielded. Those with old grudges easily clashed, inevitably sparking conflict. But such intensity was somewhat unexpected.
“Pfft”
Before long, blood rain fell. The crowd was shocked and fled in all directions. That was the blood of a Great Sage. Ordinary Saints couldn’t bear it; being drenched by it would be disastrous.
“Daoist friend, why must it be this way? Harmony is most precious,” someone stepped forward to mediate.
The crowd was surprised, looking up. It was Chaos Expansion Great Sage, who rushed into the vast void to break up the fight.
Unfortunately, the two sides couldn’t be separated, and at that moment, the outcome was decided. The battle was exceptionally brutal. Large swaths of blood rain flew. A scream came from the sky, and a Great Sage was blown apart.
His primordial spirit tried to flee, but the pursuer wouldn’t let go. Holding a green gourd, he pulled out the stopper, and a stream of green qi flew out, wrapping around the primordial spirit and turning it to dust.
“Alas!” Chaos Expansion Great Sage sighed and shook his head.
The crowd immediately moved thirty thousand zhang away from him. A Great Sage battle had erupted first, then quickly ended.
“Ye Fan, do you dare to fight?” Crown Prince Huai Zun had set up the formation banners. This mountain ridge was now filled with howling gales, surging mists, and various gods, demons, ghosts, and monsters appearing.
Moreover, beams of light and flames occasionally shot up, fire essence piercing the nine heavens. This killing formation was clearly extraordinary to anyone who saw it, capable of injuring a Great Sage.
Many people looked over at Ye Fan, all wanting to see a dragon-and-tiger struggle. In this era, few truly dared to fight Ye Fan alone. Who dared to challenge him?
Killing the Celestial Prince, attacking Mount Sumeru... which of these wasn’t a stormy event? Not to mention some news from the Stellar Ancient Path that people still couldn’t confirm.
“Are you sure you want to be my enemy?” Ye Fan asked, looking very cold.
“Naturally. The blood-deep hatred is always in my heart. The Golden Crow Clan will never coexist with you. You must die!” Crown Prince Huai Zun shouted fiercely.
“Very well, then. There’s nothing more to say.” Ye Fan strode forward.
“Both of you are outstanding talents. Why must it be like this? Harmony is most precious,” Chaos Expansion Great Sage descended, looking compassionate, wanting to calm things down.
The Golden Crow Clan Great Sage sneered. If Ye Fan entered the formation, even with an Imperial Artifact in hand, he would shed a layer of skin. After all, he couldn’t fully awaken the killing sword, but the hidden formation was different—it could revive on its own, slaying gods and Buddhas!
He naturally wouldn’t let Chaos Expansion ruin things. “Daoist friend, you worry too much. This is just a settlement. No outsiders need to interfere.”
“Harmony is most precious,” Chaos Expansion earnestly advised.
“Ye Fan, what are you waiting for? Are you afraid? Enter the formation and fight!” Crown Prince Huai Zun shouted, turning to enter the formation, forcing Ye Fan to duel him inside.
Suddenly, clang! A flash of cold light passed. Heaven and earth lost their color in an instant. The sun, moon, and stars dimmed. Mountains and rivers trembled. Some great peaks directly exploded.
In front of the formation, a spray of blood flew up. Crown Prince Huai Zun was directly split in half by Ye Fan, blown to pieces. Blood and white bone fragments splattered everywhere.
Everyone was stunned. Had Ye Fan broken the formation? No, he hadn’t even entered it. He had directly killed Crown Prince Huai Zun with a single strike from outside.
“Alas!” Chaos Expansion Great Sage sighed.
Boom! This place erupted. Was it over just like that? It hadn’t even begun. Without breaking the formation, Ye Fan had simply cleaved Crown Prince Huai Zun!
The Golden Crow Clan Great Sage let out a furious roar, hating to the point of madness. The opponent was too unscrupulous, directly taking action like this. He roared, “Human Sacred Body, you are despicable!”
Shi Zhongxuan said in a sinister tone, “Brother Ye, how could you act like this? You are the dignified Human Sacred Body, yet you dare not accept the challenge and instead assassinate your opponent. Truly, I am ashamed to be associated with you.”
“Fellow daoists, what are you waiting for? This child’s methods are vicious and he doesn’t follow the rules. Keeping him is a disaster. Why not strike now and kill him?” someone shouted, calling out to the old clan leaders of several great imperial clans, urging them to use Extreme Dao weapons to suppress and kill Ye Fan.
Ye Fan’s eyes flickered. He had already used Source Art. Even if the person shouting in secret concealed their aura, standing within this heaven and earth, they couldn’t escape his perception.
He had already discovered that it was Granny Maple, who had earlier urged the various clan Great Sages in the hall to suppress and kill him.
“What’s going on? The Human Sacred Body directly started killing outside the formation?” the crowd discussed, this place in an uproar.
Ye Fan snorted coldly. “When did I ever agree to enter his formation? Setting up a Quasi-Emperor killing formation to trick me in and kill me—what a clever plan.”
The crowd was in an uproar. It was actually a Quasi-Emperor killing formation!
Such a formation, if complete, would be extremely terrifying. Unlike an Imperial Artifact, which even when activated couldn’t fully revive, a formation was different—it could revive on its own, equivalent to a true Quasi-Emperor being reborn.
Back when the Human Demon attacked the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, even holding the Green Copper Cauldron, he was blocked by the Quasi-Emperor formation and couldn’t achieve full success.
