Chapter 1154: Shattered

The Frost Sovereign saw Lin Fan but not the War Sovereign, and hesitated in confusion. “Where is the War Sovereign?”

Lin Fan glanced sideways at the Frost Sovereign. “Dead…”

“You…” The Frost Sovereign was stunned upon hearing this, never expecting the War Sovereign to actually perish.

Observing the Frost Sovereign’s expression, Lin Fan chuckled. “What’s wrong? Feeling a bit nostalgic? Could it be you two had something going on?”

“Reckless…” The Frost Sovereign became thoroughly enraged. She never imagined the War Sovereign had been slain by this native, an idea that seemed utterly absurd to her.

“What can recklessness achieve? Today, it’s either you or me. No one is leaving here alive.” Lin Fan stomped his foot, creating a thunderous boom that shattered the heavens and earth, charging directly at the Frost Sovereign.

The Frost Sovereign let out a cold snort, unleashing a vast frost force that spread throughout the skies and earth.

Boom!

The heavens and earth were thrown into chaos, the powerful force shaking space itself into ruins.

Han Jun Tian, along with numerous disciples, had already been completely overwhelmed. Yet, even from such a distance, they could feel the power emanating from that battlefield, a force so terrifying that it left no room for resistance, not even in the slightest.

He wanted to return, but thinking of his responsibility, he could only continue leading the disciples of the Infinite Continent in retreat until they reached safety.

…

At this moment, Lin Fan bore injuries. The Frost Sovereign was truly a formidable opponent. Even though she hadn’t fully recovered her strength, her techniques were mysteriously formidable. These frost attacks were unstoppable. His physical body had reached the King Immortal Realm, yet he still couldn’t withstand them.

Killing the War Sovereign had indeed brought significant experience gains. However, facing the Frost Sovereign now, he still found a considerable gap remaining.

Just then, a scream of agony rang out.

Lin Fan turned his head and saw flames engulfing the body of Bai Sheng, the ancestor of Kunlun Divine Sect.

“Bai Sheng…” Geng Yang Tian was helpless against the flames. He and Bai Sheng had been suppressing the Flame Sovereign, but they hadn’t expected the Flame Sovereign’s power to be so immense. Even working together, they still couldn’t subdue it.

Lin Fan furrowed his brow, wanting to rush forward and help. But suddenly, the Frost Sovereign let out a long roar, completely sealing off the surrounding space. She fixed Lin Fan with a stare. “You want to save him, but unfortunately, you can’t leave.”

“You…” Lin Fan’s heart tightened. He could already sense the power of that flame, likely beyond what Bai Sheng could extinguish.

Geng Yang Tian unleashed countless immortal techniques but couldn’t put out the flames. Bai Sheng was in grave danger.

The Flame Sovereign stood in the void, roaring with laughter. “Ha! What can a native like you do? Divine Flame can never be extinguished by you. It will burn everything you have until you turn to ashes.”

Bai Sheng, engulfed in flames, felt terror as the fire continued devouring everything on his body.

Geng Yang Tian tried to rescue him, but Bai Sheng raised his hand. “Don’t bother saving me. Help me subdue him instead.”

“But you…” Geng Yang Tian hesitated.

Bai Sheng waved his hand. “This flame can’t be extinguished, but I can still hold on. The Flame Sovereign must not be allowed to live. Kill him…”

Boom!

A surge of battle intent erupted skyward, charging directly at the Flame Sovereign.

The Flame Sovereign looked at Bai Sheng and sneered. “Such foolishness.”

At this moment, Lin Fan was entangled with the Frost Sovereign. He hadn’t expected the Flame Sovereign’s power to be this formidable. Even with Geng Yang Tian and Bai Sheng working together, they couldn’t suppress it.

This…

“Frost Sovereign, step aside!” Lin Fan shouted fiercely.

The Frost Sovereign looked at Lin Fan, a smile appearing on her exquisite face. “Angry, aren’t you? Then prove yourself with your strength. Otherwise, you’ll witness all your ancestors being burned to ashes by the flames.”

“Dare to seek death…”

…

Bai Sheng’s aura weakened increasingly. The raging flames continued consuming everything of his. Geng Yang Tian sensed Bai Sheng’s fading strength and grew anxious.

Spitting blood, suddenly the Flame Sovereign’s blazing hand pierced through Bai Sheng’s body, looking down contemptuously. “Indeed, such foolishness.”

Geng Yang Tian roared, “Bai Sheng…”

Bai Sheng looked down, then turned his head to gaze at Geng Yang Tian. “You owe me a favor. I’m calling it in now—take care of Kunlun Divine Sect for me…”

Hua!

In an instant, Bai Sheng completely ignited all his strength, the Flame Sovereign startled, realizing this native intended self-destruction. He tried to retreat, but at this moment, Bai Sheng grabbed the Flame Sovereign’s arm, allowing the flames to burn his own body. “Flame Sovereign, die…”

“No…”

Boom!

The self-destruction of a King Immortal shook the heavens and earth, causing the entire space-time to become chaotic.

Geng Yang Tian stared at the scene before him, stunned.

“Cursed…” At this moment, the Flame Sovereign’s body floated in the void, damaged and broken. He hadn’t expected this native to actually self-destruct, and the explosion’s power was so immense it directly destroyed half of his divine body.

Geng Yang Tian looked at the scene before him, filled with grief and fury. Although relations between Heaven Sect and Kunlun Divine Sect had been poor, they had been neighboring sects for countless years.

“Die…” Geng Yang Tian roared furiously, unleashing his palm toward the Flame Sovereign. The powerful force immediately startled the Flame Sovereign, but upon seeing that palm, he unleashed all his strength, divine flames surging toward Geng Yang Tian.

His arm entangled in flames, Geng Yang Tian furrowed his brow, pouring immense power directly into the Flame Sovereign’s body.

Boom!

The Flame Sovereign was thoroughly subdued, and his arm, burned by the flames, was directly severed.

Yet, some flames still clung to the wound, temporarily impossible to dispel. Geng Yang Tian gritted his teeth, temporarily suppressing them with magical energy. Although grief and fury filled his heart over Bai Sheng’s sacrifice, at this moment, there was no hesitation.

“Bai Sheng, as long as this old man lives, I will protect your Kunlun Divine Sect.”

…

The battle between Lin Fan and the Frost Sovereign had reached a fever pitch. Their clashes had transcended everything else. Lin Fan had continuously tried to eliminate the Frost Sovereign but hadn’t found an opportunity yet.

In his view, the Frost Sovereign was practically on par with the future Boundless King Buddha. His “Nine-Five Great Brick” technique barely had room to be used.

At this moment, the situation on the battlefield was also extremely grim.

Casualties were heavy on both sides. Many Sovereigns had fallen, and numerous ancestors had been killed or injured.

Puxin Ancestor of the Good and Evil Buddhist Sect had even had half his Buddha heart shattered by the Sovereigns. If not for the rescue by other ancestors, he would have perished.

The Frost Sovereign coldly looked at Lin Fan, her expression slightly weary. She hadn’t expected this native’s strength to be this formidable, nor his fighting style to be so reckless—pure brute force, completely disregarding his own condition.

“Native, you are indeed strong, but it ends here.” At this moment, the Frost Sovereign roared, unleashing her frost aura. Behind her, the void gradually twisted.

“Frost City, descend!”

In an instant, a vast power surged forth from the void.

Lin Fan focused his gaze, his heart filled with caution.
