Chapter 757 - 193: Frenzied Combat: Vajra Shakes the Demon; Panic, Contamination Increases Again

The next instant, the devastating attack was upon him!

SCREEEEEECH...

A teeth-grinding screech of metal against metal instantly pierced the sky!

The three triangular iron shields, spinning at high speed like deadly buzzsaws, slashed viciously at Chu Fan's chest, abdomen, and thigh!

However, the expected scene of gushing blood and severed limbs did not occur!

When the spinning blades, sharp enough to slice through heavy armor, struck Chu Fan's body, they let out the piercing shriek of metal grinding on metal!

Countless sparks erupted wildly from the points of contact like fireworks. The terrifying shockwave of energy blasted outward, grinding all rocks and plants within a hundred-foot radius to dust!

Yet Chu Fan, standing at the center of the storm, was completely unharmed aside from the showers of sparks erupting from his skin!

The toughness of his physical body was simply horrifying!

"Th-This... How is this possible?!"

Hovering in the air, Zhang Tianyu's eyes looked as if they would pop out of their sockets. His normally sinister face was now a mask of incredulous horror!

'What kind of monster is this?!'

Zhang Tianyu's mind reeled, and a chill ran straight down his spine!

He knew these three iron shields were no ordinary items; they were a set of Ancient Treasures he had gone to great lengths to obtain!

As a Ruyi Realm expert, when he channeled his full cultivation into these Ancient Treasures, they were sharp enough to slice through ten-thousand-year-old Cold Iron as if it were tofu!

Any other Ruyi Realm expert facing this "Three Talents Slaughter" technique would have had to summon a Defensive Magical Treasure and retreat to avoid its edge!

But this Chu Fan... he had taken it head-on with nothing but his physical body?!

'Could his body be forged from divine iron?'

'Or was this little bastard actually an Ancient Fierce Beast in human form?'

At this moment, the corner of Zhang Tianyu's eye twitched uncontrollably!

Faced with this absurd reality, the battle lust in his heart—fueled until now by rage—instantly crumbled, replaced by an endless, creeping fear!

In the brief instant he was lost in shock...

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Chu Fan moved!

Withstanding the spinning shields, he threw three lightning-fast punches!

Each punch landed with a thunderous boom, an explosive release of the purest power!

Those three Ruyi Realm Ancient Treasure shields, capable of shredding even ten-thousand-year-old Cold Iron, were sent flying by Chu Fan's three punches.

Deep fist imprints marred their surfaces, and their light dimmed instantly!

Immediately after, Chu Fan landed on all fours. His chest and face pointed upward as he pushed off with both his hands and feet, his body contorting like a giant humanoid spider. Emanating a suffocating Fierce Evil Qi, he scrambled up the side of the crater at an unnatural speed, lunging straight for Zhang Tianyu!

...

Watching the monstrous figure rapidly close in, Zhang Tianyu felt the hair all over his body stand on end, his scalp tingled, and a chill pierced him to the bone!

Too terrifying!

Too brutal!

If he were at his peak, with all his techniques and profound cultivation, he wouldn't have feared this Chu Fan who relied solely on rampaging with brute force.

But he had first been struck by the bizarre, blood-red lightning, which damaged his very foundation. Then, he was severely wounded by Chu Fan's relentless, close-quarters assault. Now, he was at the end of his rope, his energy all but gone.

How could he dare to entangle himself any longer with this unreasonable monster of invincible defense and savage power?

If he kept fighting, death was the only outcome!

'Flee!!'

The thought instantly consumed him. With a shrill cry, not daring to linger, he hastily recalled his three Ancient Treasure shields, transformed into a desperate streak of black light, and fled for his life into the distance!

THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD!

Chu Fan flipped to his feet, performed Stepping on Gang and Dou, and shot after Zhang Tianyu like an arrow loosed from a bow.

However, the distance between them had already widened, and catching him now would be nearly impossible.

Although Zhang Tianyu was on the verge of being crippled, he was a Ruyi Realm cultivator, after all. His flight speed, fueled by burning his Primordial Qi, still far surpassed that of Chu Fan, who relied solely on explosive physical strength!

The dark figure streaked past, shrinking to a black dot in the blink of an eye before vanishing over the horizon!

BANG!

Chu Fan stomped his feet, cracking the earth below as he launched himself into the air and hovered there.

He stared coldly in the direction Zhang Tianyu had vanished, remaining silent.

'In the end, I still let that bastard get away.'

His explosive speed might leave an ordinary peak Bright Heart Realm cultivator in the dust, but compared to the Ruyi Realm, there was still an insurmountable gap.

Even if he beat his opponent to a bloody pulp, if he couldn't catch him, he simply couldn't catch him.

'How can I possibly make up for this weakness in speed...'

In the distance, Wang Yiyi, Princess Zhaohua, and the others remained petrified, like statues frozen in time.

They had long known that Chu Fan was exceptionally strong.

But to witness him beat Zhang Tianyu like a punching bag, forcing him to scream in agony and ultimately flee like a stray dog—the sheer visual impact of it all left them feeling as though they were in an unbelievable dream.

This wasn't just Zhang Tianyu, after all, but a terrifying "fusion monster" created by merging with a thousand-year-old Soul Division from the Zhang Family Ancestor and activating the forbidden Pollution Power!

Princess Zhaohua recalled the first time she had met Chu Fan, several months ago...

Back then, she had mistaken him for a Demon of the Moon Worship Sect and had casually struck him with her sword.

Her sword strike had sent him flying into the ground, burying him beneath a large boulder in the valley.

Later, Lord Leng of the Demon Suppression Bureau had visited Prince Zhennan's Mansion to explain the full story, and she had received a stern reprimand from her father, the Prince...

Gazing at the distant figure, who exuded a fierce and chilling aura, Princess Zhaohua sighed inwardly.

'In just a few short months, this once-insignificant Demon Suppression Guard has grown to such a terrifying level...'

'In the face of such talent, the gifts and resources from the Prince's Mansion that I've always been so proud of are nothing but a joke!'

'But...'

A slight smile touched Princess Zhaohua's lips, and a look of relief flashed in her eyes. 'Having such a powerful friend is a blessing, too.'

'Without Chu Fan, everyone who entered the Profound Origin Secret Realm today would have perished, becoming nothing more than fuel for Zhang Tianyu!'
