Unrivaled Martial Emperor

The changes in the colorful stone door caught the attention of the various major forces.

Everyone could tell that the core area was about to close.

Anticipation lit up the faces of the high-ranking members of the major sects.

On the other hand, members of the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces wore smug, cold smiles.

To them, this expedition into the core area had been a massive win.

Swish, swish, swish.

Suddenly, several figures rushed out of the colorful stone door.

"They're out! They've come out!" yelled someone immediately.

Soon, numerous figures rushed out like a swarm of locusts.

The vast majority of them were rogue cultivators. After emerging from the stone door, they didn't stop over at all. They turned into streams of light and rushed out.

These people had reaped great rewards inside the core area, but without powerful backers, staying here was courting death. No one could guarantee the major sects wouldn't try to rob them on the spot.

As time passed, disciples from the various major forces emerged.

Whoosh.

Chen Fan and the others also flew out and landed at the True Martial Academy's side in a flash.

"What's going on? Where are my Ziyang Palace's people?"

"Wang Zhong, why hasn't Wang Zhong come out?"

"Something's wrong! Something's very wrong! None of our people came out. What happened in there?!"

The smug expressions on the faces of the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and foreign continent forces vanished instantly. They'd been waiting to see the major sects humiliated.

Everyone inside the core area had come out, but none of the prodigies of the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces had come out. This was abnormal.

Furthermore, contrary to their expectations, even though the various major forces had lost some of their elites, a few still made it out alive, and the damage wasn't as severe as they had expected.

The Ziyang Palace's grand elder couldn't hold it any longer and glared at Chen Fan. Being a Void Immortal, his might made the crowd feel suffocated.

"Chen Fan, tell me! Why didn't Wang Zhong, Xia Hou, and the others come out?"

None of their people who entered the core area had come out. Clearly...

Those were the elites of their respective forces, the future pillars of their sects. Losing them all would be a devastating blow.

"Hmph, stop waiting. They won't come out!" said Chen Fan coldly.

"What? What did you say? How is that possible? How is that possible?! You're still alive, how could they possibly die? It's you, you killed them, didn't you?"

The people of the foreign continents lost their composure.

"Hahahaha, that's right. I killed them. And you know exactly why." Chen Fan admitted it.

"This opportunity belonged to my continent. Yet, not only did you come here trying to seize a share without gratitude, you even colluded with the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect to betray us. Wouldn't I be letting the senior brothers and sisters who died down if we don't kill them?"

As soon as those words came out, Zhang Daoling and the others' gazes turned cold.

"What? Chen Fan, what did you say? What exactly happened?"

The True Martial Academy had sent a hundred people in, but only twenty-some people returned alive. Their losses were huge, even if these people made great harvests.

Zhang Daoling and the others had assumed that the massive losses were due to the core area's perilous nature. However, it seemed there was more to the story.

"Teacher, it's like this..."

Chen Fan recounted what happened inside.

The people of the other major forces also spoke out about the collusion between the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces and their attempt to assassinate them.

Suddenly, voices rang out.

"Good! Great! You people are indeed wolves with wild ambitions. How dare you try to target our elite prodigies? You people deserve to die!"

"Well done! Good job killing them! If it wasn't for Chen Fan turning the situation around at the last moment, you really would have gotten away with it!"

"Don't think about leaving today unless you give us an explanation!"

The higher-ups of the various major forces were furious.

They never would have imagined that the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect would collude with the forces from the foreign continents to kill their elite prides of heaven.

And even if they had expected something like this, how could they have ever foreseen that Xia Hou and Wang Zhong from the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect would advance into the Legendary realm inside the core area. A lineup with five Lesser Legendary realm experts could easily crush their disciples.

Had things gone as planned, the forces would have suffered devastating losses.

These elites were the future pillars of their sects. Losing them would create a power vacuum, weakening the sects for years to come.

For a major force, that was a very serious problem. If they were not careful, they could fall from power and fade into history.

This collusion was simply a scheme that could have ended their lineages.

Boom!

Suddenly, a boundlessly terrifying might swept out from Zhang Daoling, shaking the space and drawing everyone's attention.

His clothing fluttered fiercely as a terrifying and suffocating killing intent swept out, shrouding the people of the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces. He said coldly, Very well... it seems we must teach you a lesson you'll never forget. You killed more than half of our True Martial Academy's elites. This debt, this blood debt, must be paid back in blood!"

"Pay back in blood!"

The True Martial Academy's side burst with killing intent.

"There's also our Blade Saint Mountain! You people, how dare you!"

"Letting you into the core area was already more generosity than you deserved. You really think our Fire Reverence Cult is made of clay? Today, none of you can leave unless you give us a satisfactory explanation."

"Hmph, you people seem to have forgotten that this is the Tianwu Continent, not Tianxuan or Ziyang!"

In mere moments, the Void Immortal Supremes and the Invincible Legendary realm figures of the overlord-class forces like the Blade Saint Mountain and the Sun Moon Divine Sect, as well as the various superpowers and super cults, were enraged. Their terrifying auras swept across the sky.

Facing the pressure from the True Martial Academy and the other forces, the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign continents' forces remained fearless.

"What, are you going to start a war? Very well! This time, my Ziyang Palace's prides of heaven died because of your people. It must be paid back in blood!"

"That's right, blood calls for blood!"

The people of the Tianxuan Sacred Sect, Ten Absolutes Sect, Eight Stars Temple, and other forces of foreign continents also unleashed their auras, going toe-to-toe with the various major forces of the Tianwu Continent.

When they joined hands, their absolute combat strength wasn't any weaker than the Tianwu Continent's major forces.

The nine foreign forces that had come to the Tianwu Continent all had a Void Immortal Supreme accompanying them, as well as several Legends. Their top combat forces weren't weak.

Furthermore, there were also four Void Immortal Supremes on the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect's side. In terms of Void Immortal level combat forces, their side held an absolute numerical advantage.
