# Chapter 258: Great Battle with the Heavenly Roc

Green verdant peaks, ancient pines standing strong, strange rocks jutting out, waterfalls like white silk cascading down three thousand feet.

"Killing a same-realm Primordial Saint Body will forge my path to becoming Great Emperor. Heaven's will is thus, the Primordial Mother Qi Root should be mine!"

Golden Wing Little Peng King stood tall, his golden hair like a waterfall, his eyes shining brilliantly. The entire man exuded a demonic aura, standing atop the mountain peak with a sense of oppression that inspired fear.

"I have never killed a Heavenly Roc before. Today, I will stain my hands with Roc blood!" Ye Fan countered tit-for-tat.

"Your physique has already declined. Even this world has abandoned your kind. You should have been buried in yellow earth long ago. Today, I will completely exterminate the Primordial Saint Body!" Golden Wing Little Peng King's killing intent soared to the heavens.

This was an extremely dangerous person, one who would kill at the slightest provocation. He was determined to obtain Ye Fan's cauldron and would never spare his life.

"I, the Heavenly Roc, am destined to become Great Emperor. Your Mysterious Yellow Source Root was prepared for me, a treasure sent by the heavens!" Golden Wing Little Peng King's wild hair flew about, mad killing intent appearing in his eyes. "I will use your Primordial Saint Blood to wash the Primordial Mother Qi Root and forge my sacred weapon!"

"This guy is a fucking lunatic!" Tu Fei muttered softly.

Qing Yi sighed, "He truly has the strength to be honored as the strongest of his generation. I heard that when Holy Son Yao Guang vowed from childhood to become Great Emperor, he rushed to the Northern Domain, wanting to personally strike down Holy Son Yao Guang."

Tu Fei looked worried, "He can't really overpower the Primordial Saint Body, can he?"

"Hard to say. Great Emperors aren't necessarily Primordial Saint Bodies. If he truly has the potential to become Great Emperor, then Ye Fan is really in danger." Qing Yi shook his head. "The Heavenly Roc clan is favored by heaven. Their physical bodies, like the Flood Dragon clan, are the strongest in the world, not inferior to the human Primordial Saint Body."

"Kill the Saint Body, blood sacrifice the Mysterious Yellow!" Golden Wing Little Peng King let out a great roar.

The mountain peak trembled, bound by an invisible demonic force, as if about to collapse.

"Hua—"

Suddenly, the silver waterfall stopped flowing, freezing in midair as if time itself had solidified.

Everyone broke out in cold sweat. A terrifying sensation passed through them in an instant, but no one understood what had happened.

"Long long long—"

The silver waterfall fell, continuing to flow onward. Everything returned to normal.

"I have already sealed myself, suppressing my cultivation to the second heaven of the Dao Palace realm!" Golden Wing Little Peng King's words rang out like metal striking stone.

Sturdy pines stood tall, ancient vines stretched strong. The mountain peak was deathly silent. The great battle was about to begin!

"Weng—"

Golden Wing Little Peng King made his move. The Heavenly Roc's extreme speed was unmatched in the world. He transformed into a beam of light charging forward, his golden fist collapsing space itself, producing violent trembling sounds.

"Pa—"

Ye Fan struck out with the Void Great Hand Seal. A black great hand spanned the sky, a dark expanse, heavily meeting the Roc fist.

"Hong—"

Like a heavenly thunderclap exploding, it shook the mountain peak. Golden and black energies raged wildly, surging in all directions like tidal waves.

"Pi li pa la—"

Like wind sweeping away clouds, like great waves washing sand.

Atop the mountain peak, all the sturdy pines were uprooted, shattering in midair. All the strange rocks turned to powder. That waterfall was swept into the high sky, flowing backward.

The first collision was devastating. Nothing remained on the mountain peak. Pavilions and other buildings were all destroyed, leveled to the ground.

The onlookers were all shocked. When the golden and black violent energies surged toward them, they all soared into the sky to dodge. It was hard to imagine this was the power of cultivators at the second heaven of the Dao Palace realm.

"Weng—"

Golden Wing Little Peng King's eyes blazed with intense light. His body charged forward, his golden fist burning like a divine flame. Divine radiance danced, extremely dazzling, making it impossible to open one's eyes. It was hard to imagine how great the power of this fist was!

"Pa—"

Ye Fan once again used the Void Great Hand Seal. The black great hand seemed to fall from the outer cosmos, dark and oppressive, causing the heavens to tremble.

"Hong long long—"

The second great confrontation. The two created a yin-yang storm. Golden and black energies surged to the heavens like a tsunami stirring the ten directions.

"Ka—"

The mountain peak couldn't withstand it. A corner collapsed, producing a deafening sound. At the same time, chaotic stones pierced the sky, startling waves crashed against the shore, and enormous boulders shot in all directions.

Ye Fan and Golden Wing Little Peng King collided like two deities!

"How is this bird-man so abnormal? His physical body really can compare with the Primordial Saint Body." Tu Fei was astonished.

"Their clan is favored by heaven. Not only is their speed unmatched in the world, but their physical body can fight true dragons. This is their unparalleled natural talent." Qing Yi's expression was solemn.

"No wonder this bird-man is almost mad to the heavens. His physical body is this terrifying. It's like another Primordial Saint Body." Tu Fei exclaimed.

"Hong—"

In the midst of fierce battle, Ye Fan naturally discovered this situation. The Heavenly Roc's physical body, tempered through the Four Extremes Secret Realm, was not inferior to his own, indestructible.

"Pa—"

Ye Fan continuously struck out. The black great hand clashed with the golden fist, causing the mountain to collapse and the waterfall to flow backward!

But his physical body did not gain the upper hand. Golden Wing Little Peng King was very valiant, completely receiving all attacks.

The Heavenly Roc's physical body, capable of fighting true dragons, was harder than Great Luo Silver Essence. Precious light shone as it forcefully resisted the Primordial Saint Body.

"Hong—"

The two separated. Ye Fan formed the Mountain and River Great Seal. A great mountain appeared above his head, covered with ancient trees and wolf forests, birds and beasts, and a silver waterfall cascading down.

Ye Fan used the Grand Void Art, suddenly appearing before Golden Wing Little Peng King, holding the Mountain and River Great Seal and directly smashing it down.

"What seal technique is this?!" Everyone was shocked.

The momentum was too grand. The great mountain stood high in the sky, majestic and vast. Birds and beasts ran, the great river surged. So real, as if a mountain had truly been moved over.

"Hong—"

Heaven and earth overturned. The Mountain and River Great Seal came down. Golden Wing Little Peng King forcefully resisted!

"Long long—"

This mountain was too enormous, shaking heaven and earth. It instantly buried Golden Wing Little Peng King beneath it.

Everyone in the distant sky changed color. This seal was too terrifying. Many felt they couldn't withstand it with their physical bodies. Even cultivators at the Four Extremes Secret Realm would have their bodies turned into meat paste.

"Peng—"

Golden Wing Little Peng King let out a long cry. His golden hair stood on end. He swung out an enormous golden Roc claw—a natural divine technique capable of fighting true dragons!

The claw tore the heavens!

The Roc's cry shook the sky, echoing for dozens of li!

In the distant sky, many people's ears stung. Some nearly fell from the high heavens.

Golden Wing Little Peng King tore the sky with his bare hands. The enormous Roc claw ripped open the great mountain, collapsing it into the void.

"Hong—"

The great mountain collapsed. Violent energies surged to the heavens. The mountain peak beneath their feet silently annihilated by over ten meters, becoming much shorter.

This was the terrifying Heavenly Roc clan, heaven's favored children. Their physical body contended with the Primordial Saint Body, not falling behind.

Ye Fan's expression didn't change. What did it matter if their physical strength was similar? He activated the Battle Saint Art, and the Mountain and River Great Seal appeared again!

"Weng—"

The towering mountain seemed to tear through time and space, charging from ancient times, pressing down.

"Peng—"

Golden Wing Little Peng King resisted with all his strength. The Roc claw tore the void, meeting the attack, once again destroying the great mountain.

"Hong—"

But Ye Fan's divine power never exhausted. He continuously formed seals, sending down thirteen Mountain and River Great Seals in succession.

In the distant sky, many demon clan cultivators were dumbfounded. Tu Fei's eyes were wide open. He muttered, "Damn it, you absolutely cannot fight him in close combat. He's really abnormal!"

Even the powerful Golden Wing Little Peng King felt somewhat overwhelmed. Thirteen great mountains pressed down one after another, forcing him to manifest his Heavenly Roc true form.

Golden light shot to the heavens, dazzling and brilliant. An enormous Roc appeared, spreading its wings to strike the sky!

This was a several-dozen-meter-long enormous bird. Its entire body was blinding, as if cast from gold, filled with the sense of power bestowed by heaven, containing explosive divine strength.

The Roc cried through the sky!

Its double wings swept across the sky, directly shattering six great mountains. Divine power surged like sacred fire burning. Its entire body radiated ten thousand feet of light.

"Pa—"

Divine wings struck the sky. The clouds in all directions were shaken apart. Invincible and unstoppable, it was indestructible. Everything it passed turned to ashes.

All the Mountain and River Great Seals were shattered by it!

This was the divine bird Heavenly Roc, with divine power surging to the heavens, overwhelming other races!

But how could Ye Fan's skills stop here? This was just the beginning. He fully unfolded the Grand Void Art, traversing through void, instantly arriving on the Heavenly Roc's back.

He embraced the moon with both hands. A pitch-black demon mountain appeared, held in his hands.

Mountain-Embracing Seal!

He held a great mountain and fiercely smashed it down toward the Heavenly Roc's back. Just looking at this momentum was enough to make one's heart tremble with fear!

"Peng—"

The Mountain-Embracing Seal struck. The great mountain was like the sky, pressing down.

"Hong long long—"

The black demon mountain struck the Heavenly Roc's true form, sending Golden Wing Little Peng King flying sideways. But the black demon mountain also collapsed. It was hard to imagine how sturdy the Heavenly Roc's physical body was.

"Shua—"

A flash of blazing golden light. Golden Wing Little Peng King transformed into human form and instantly disappeared into the void.

"Not good!"

Ye Fan's vigilance was aroused. He unfolded the Grand Void Art to traverse through space and leave, but he was still a step too late. The Heavenly Roc's divine wings slashed down.

Golden Wing Little Peng King's right hand transformed into a thirty-meter-long golden blade, cold light flashing, instantly cutting to close range.

"Dang—"

Ye Fan passively received the attack. His golden fist punched up to the sky, striking the blade with a sound that pierced metal and split stone, vibrating for dozens of li.

"Peng—"

Although he dodged this strike, he was still hit in the back by another Roc claw, sent flying hundreds of meters away.

This was the Heavenly Roc's extreme speed!

Golden Wing Little Peng King was incredibly fast. He transformed into hundreds and thousands of afterimages, continuously attacking, bombarding Ye Fan's physical body.

"I soar through the world!"

Golden Wing Little Peng King shouted. His body transformed into ten thousand forms, afterimages everywhere, all attacking Ye Fan in the center.

Finally, all the afterimages merged into one, becoming an eternal and indestructible true body. Golden light illuminated heaven and earth. Life-Slaying Grand Art surged like ten thousand layers of startling waves, continuously striking at Ye Fan.

Heavenly Roc Slash, divine wings tearing the void, continuously chopping down. In just a short moment, he attacked ten thousand times with Heavenly Roc extreme speed!

Each strike caused the void to collapse. In the end, it even tore through the void, sending Ye Fan flying several li away.

"Can this bird-man really become Great Emperor? Even the Primordial Saint Body can't suppress him!" Tu Fei was shocked.

This was Ye Fan's first evenly matched great battle in his life!

This was a terrifying Heavenly Roc that truly had some possibility of becoming Great Emperor!

"Don't delude yourself into thinking you can kill me with divine sense. It's useless to sacrifice your cauldron. Let your blood stain the long sky red!" Even more insane killing intent flowed from Golden Wing Little Peng King's eyes.

"I'm afraid he truly has the potential to become Great Emperor!" Qing Yi showed a solemn expression.

"Are you saying he might be able to strike down Holy Son Yao Guang?!" Tu Fei's heart trembled.

"The Great Emperor's physique isn't necessarily a Divine Body, nor necessarily a Saint Body. He might truly have this potential!" Yan Ruyu also spoke.

The other demon cultivators all changed color. Was Golden Wing Little Peng King truly this powerful?

"Roar..."

Golden Wing Little Peng King roared, shaking mountains and rivers. With Heavenly Roc extreme speed, who knew how many times he attacked.

"Is this all your skill?!" Suddenly, Ye Fan's cold voice came out.

"He's not injured! Is the Primordial Saint Body nearly immortal?!" Everyone was shocked.

At this moment, Ye Fan raised his speed, actually competing with Golden Wing Little Peng King in extreme speed, not falling behind.

"How is this possible? The Heavenly Roc's extreme speed is unmatched in the world, unrivaled under heaven. How can he catch up?!" The demon clan cultivators were shocked.

"Legend says only the Mad Old Man's footwork can match or even surpass the Heavenly Roc's extreme speed." Qing Yi said solemnly.

"He has cultivated the Mad Old Man's footwork!" Yan Ruyu nodded.

Ye Fan went berserk. Divine power surged to the heavens. His entire body's essence energy surged. His great hand covered the sky, shaking apart the clouds in the sky!

"Peng—"

The sky-covering great hand instantly sent Golden Wing Little Peng King flying!

"Hong—"

Ye Fan formed seals with both hands, as if holding up the sky. An enormous black sun instantly filled the sky, grand and majestic.

Like the boundless sea, like the bottomless abyss, like the majestic ancient mountain!

The momentum was overwhelming, making people want to kneel down. He punched forward, endless killing intent!

"Peng—"

But surprisingly, Ye Fan was not sealed. He struck first, his fist hitting Golden Wing Little Peng King's face. A string of blood flowers sprayed from his mouth.

"You..." Golden Wing Little Peng King was shocked. He never expected the other party to be unbound. He decisively retreated.

But Ye Fan's continuous attacks unfolded. The golden great hand spanned the sky, directly chopping down, covering his head.

"Peng—"

This was a very heavy strike. Golden Wing Little Peng King's body shook violently. His head buzzed and rang. This was him; for anyone else, they would have been annihilated in both body and spirit.

His hair was disheveled. His body swayed again and again, nearly falling from the high sky.

"Pa—"

Ye Fan's golden great palm struck over, heavily hitting his body, like swatting a scarecrow, sending him flying.

One wrong step led to all wrong steps. Golden Wing Little Peng King had misjudged earlier, and now he was being suppressed by Ye Fan!

"Peng—"

The golden great hand covered the sky. Ye Fan struck his back. A large string of blood flowers rushed from his mouth.

Below, everyone was shocked. Ye Fan had actually heavily injured the arrogant Golden Wing Little Peng King!
