PHS Chapter 263

Chapter 263: Merely Collecting Some Interest in Advance

"Kill!"

Fang Han's roar shook down thousands of stars. The long spear in his hand began to glow. A Saint Level weapon could barely contain Imperial might—before he even struck, fissures cracked across its shaft. Though shattering, it was held together by his true essence.

It erupted with brilliant radiance, its power shocking all who witnessed it. From a distance, it looked like a single pillar supporting the sky, smashing down with thunderous force.

"How can he be so strong?"

Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain formed seals with both hands, activating the power of rules. Celestial rivers descended from the sky, forming a heavenly curtain to block the assault.

The moment the curtain formed, it collided with the spear.

"Boom!"

A heaven-shaking explosion rang out, carrying for hundreds of millions of li. Living beings in countless starfields heard the deafening roar. They lifted their heads as one, looking toward the source.

They saw only a terrifying aftershock sweeping outward, forcibly flattening vast swaths of the starfield. A great void appeared in the dimmed sky. All stars within disintegrated instantly, turning to fine powder.

"Great Emperors are fighting!"

"Which two? Is it Emperor Tai Huang or Great Emperor Moyuan?"

"It's not Moyuan. Rumor has it he fought his way into the Tianyuan Realm. This must be an old monster from the Forbidden Zones!"

"Have you forgotten? Beings from the Earth Immortal Realm crossed over and enslaved many factions. Likely, a Great Emperor couldn't stand idle and intervene!"

Countless voices discussed, eyes filled with curiosity. They were too distant to witness the battle clearly, yet fortunate these Great Emperors had not chosen their starfield as a battlefield. Otherwise, countless innocents would have perished.

"Rumble!"

The battle erupted in full fury. The moment Fang Han and Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain clashed, the fight reached devastating intensity. All kinds of forbidden divine arts were unleashed as they exchanged thousands of blows in an instant.

Fang Han knew he could not fight long. The longer this dragged on, the worse his position.

Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain, however, was shaken to his core. He couldn't understand why Fang Han fought so desperately. They had barely begun, and both were already wounded. Were it not for Fang Han's imperfect control over Great Emperor power, Moyuan would already be gravely injured.

"Die!"

Fang Han roared. The long spear swept out, ten thousand rays of brilliance shooting forth, piercing through the Void. Stars exploded in the emptiness.

"Pfft!"

Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain staggered as if struck by a heavy blow. He spat blood, and his arm exploded into mist. He was sent flying back hundreds of thousands of li, slamming into the formation's edge.

"Detestable!"

He glanced at the formation in the Void, his face pale. Were it not for this accursed barrier, he would have fled. But it blocked his escape, forcing him to fight Fang Han directly. And Fang Han was like a madman—though his techniques lacked refinement, they were backed by peak Great Emperor power. Direct confrontation was impossible.

"Kacha!"

Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain grasped at the Void with his other hand. The blood mist that had been his arm gathered, re-forming at the wound. In an instant, bone regrew and flesh knit. A brand-new arm emerged.

"A mere junior dares act so presumptuously before this Emperor?"

Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain wiped blood from his mouth. His eyes darkened, his body shrouded in frost. To have an arm shattered—this was profound humiliation!

He had once been a titan in the Earth Immortal Realm. Countless people revered him, not daring the slightest disrespect. He had struggled to find equals. Yet today, a junior had grievously wounded him.

Unimaginable. More unbearable than death itself—not merely pain of the flesh, but shame that nearly drove him mad.

"Ahhh—!"

Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain roared, resisting fiercely, trying to break through the formation. But Fang Han held him back, and their battle reached a tragic state. His flesh tore, revealing bone, and blood flowed freely.

Still, he could not advance a single step beyond the barrier.

"Your power cannot last! Fight this Emperor to the death, and you will fall!"

"It is enough to slay you!"

Fang Han's tone was cold and indifferent. His hands were empty—the Saint Level spear had disintegrated. But now, clenching his fist, countless rays of brilliance gathered, condensing into a new spear shimmering with metallic luster.

"Swoosh!"

The spear shot forth, transforming into light. Fast as lightning, emitting a thunderous roar, dazzling and brilliant. As if cast by divine hands, it was unstoppable.

Every living being who saw it felt their heart palpitate. Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain, bearing the full brunt, was even more terrified.

Not long ago, he had suppressed a Primeval Royal Clan alone. Now, moments later, he stood on death's threshold. Seeing the spear coming to kill him, unwilling to accept his fate, he raised his Imperial Weapon instinctively to block the fatal blow.

"Clang!"

The Imperial Weapon was sent flying. The spear, radiating divine brilliance and surging with power, pierced through the Void and impaled Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain. It carried him back hundreds of thousands of li, nailing him to the formation's edge.

A Great Emperor, nailed to the Void. Imperial blood splattered, and his cries of pain echoed through the emptiness.

Every witness felt their heart seize. Among them were Great Emperors from the Purple Profound Realm—Emperor Tai Huang and Great Emperor Tianqi. After rescuing Great Emperor Moyuan, they had rushed here, only to witness this scene.

Utter silence fell.

Blood dripped from the spear's tip—a shocking sight. Fixed in the Void, the shaft of condensed light trembled slightly, shimmering as it pinned a Great Emperor beneath it. Blood flowed down the shaft, dyeing the sky red.

This sight sent chills down countless spines. Too horrifying. A Great Emperor was suppressed and nailed to the firmament. It appeared two Great Emperors had attacked together, yet in truth, only one had fought. The other had merely erected a formation.

Fang Han walked through the Void, his steps steady, neither fast nor slow, as if treading on the hearts of countless observers, making their hearts beat in rhythm with his pace. A powerful deterrent, an oppressive atmosphere nearly suffocating.

Seeing Fang Han approach, Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain could no longer maintain composure.

"No! You cannot kill this Emperor! Fuyun Mountain stands behind me! If you kill this Emperor, Fuyun Mountain will settle the score with you! Even with Great Emperor power, how can you withstand Fuyun Mountain's reckoning?"

"Is that so?"

Fang Han's expression remained unchanged. He walked up to Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain, reached out, and grasped the spear. He said coldly:

"From the moment Fuyun Mountain declared war on the Fang Clan, it became a war to the death. Today, I am merely collecting some interest in advance. When I fight my way back to the Earth Immortal Realm, Fuyun Mountain will cease to exist!"

As his voice fell, the spear trembled, emitting blinding light. Might capable of tearing the universe apart erupted, sweeping outward.

Great Emperor Fuyun Mountain let out one last wretched scream. His Imperial body shattered, dissolving into blood mist. From within, divine light had just emerged when a heaven-covering hand stretched out and suppressed it directly. Then, momentum unchecked, this hand reached into the depths of the Void and snatched back the Imperial Weapon sent flying earlier.

"According to our transaction, the Storage Ring is yours. His Imperial Weapon and Primordial Spirit are mine!"

"Many thanks, Senior!"

Fang Han's expression remained unchanged as he bowed toward the Void.
