Chapter 1078: The Gate of Immortal King

"You really want to die, don't you?" Han Juntian looked at Lin Fan, utterly dumbfounded. This was stirring up trouble, and very serious trouble at that.

When Ancestor Qitian said to let the matter rest, Han Juntian knew it was temporarily over, but he also knew it wasn't truly finished. He knew that among the Supreme Ancestors of the Kunlun Divine Sect, one was about to ascend to the Heavenly Lord Dao. If that one became a Heavenly Lord, the situation in the Endless Continent would likely change completely.

And after today's incident, the Kunlun Divine Sect would absolutely hold a deep grudge against the Heaven and Earth Sect. As soon as the Supreme Ancestor of the Kunlun Divine Sect achieved the Heavenly Lord Dao, the first sect to be targeted would probably be the Heaven and Earth Sect.

"Sect Master, the situation is now fully under control. How many Supreme Ancestors does the Kunlun Divine Sect have?" Lin Fan asked calmly. He had envisioned this scenario many times; as long as Ancestor Qitian showed up, it was his time to shine.

Han Juntian shook his head. "I don't know. But the situation is already complicated. Don't be reckless anymore, or even I won't be able to protect you."

Lin Fan smiled, looking indifferent. "Don't worry. A prodigy like me—the sect's ancestors won't just stand by."

Han Juntian looked at Lin Fan, helpless. Even so, you can't act like this. If the Supreme Ancestors don't come out, you'll be in trouble.

At that moment, Ancestor Qitian's figure appeared between heaven and earth. His handsome face showed a trace of anger, and his gaze at Lin Fan was like looking at an ant. He was an indestructible powerhouse at the Immortal King realm, yet this mere ant had used self-destructing immortal artifacts to blow up his divine sense incarnation. Such an act could only be repaid with life.

"Ancestor Qitian..." Han Juntian looked at the insurmountable mountain before him. Though his cultivation was inferior, he showed no fear. "This matter is my disciple's fault. Please, Ancestor Qitian, do not take it to heart."

Ancestor Qitian had been famous for a long time; he was already a peerless powerhouse thousands of years ago, even before Han Juntian was born. In Ancestor Qitian's eyes, Han Juntian was merely a junior.

"Han Juntian, as the sect master of the Heaven and Earth Sect, you can't even manage a mere disciple. Since that's the case, let the ancestor discipline him for you," Ancestor Qitian said coldly.

Lin Fan stepped forward. "Ancestor Qitian, the Immortal King realm is said to be indestructible, but I, Lin Fan, don't believe it. Today, let's see what you've got."

"Explode!"

Two top-grade immortal artifacts roared out, directly suppressing Ancestor Qitian.

"Hmph, a junior." Ancestor Qitian snorted. His five fingers spread out like a canopy covering the sky, extending outward. The immortal dao laws were overwhelmingly powerful, irresistible. The hidden powerhouses in the void all trembled the moment Ancestor Qitian made his move.

Such was the might of an Immortal King. Though not aimed at them, the aura enveloped them all, as if no matter where they fled, they couldn't escape.

Snap!

The giant hand closed, directly grasping the two top-grade immortal artifacts in its palm.

"Explode."

Boom!

The two top-grade immortal artifacts instantly exploded, but the result made Lin Fan pause slightly. It was useless—completely useless.

This surprised Lin Fan. Two top-grade immortal artifacts exploding in Ancestor Qitian's palm had no effect at all. It was utterly inconceivable, beyond belief.

Was this the power of an Immortal King?

"Junior, self-destructing top-grade immortal artifacts may be immensely powerful, but in the eyes of a true powerhouse, it's all futile," Ancestor Qitian said.

Lin Fan scratched his head. Damn, that's impressive. The strength of an Immortal King truly exceeded imagination. Two top-grade immortal artifacts self-destructing couldn't even scratch him. How frustrating.

The watching powerhouses were shocked.

"Ancestor Qitian's strength is terrifying. Even top-grade immortal artifacts can't harm him in the slightest."

"That kid is probably done for. His greatest reliance is those immortal artifacts, but they're useless against Ancestor Qitian. He probably has no other tricks."

"Not necessarily. The Supreme Ancestors of the Heaven and Earth Sect won't stand idly by; they'll definitely save this disciple."

...

Qin Shengjun, who had suffered a blow in the Three Sovereigns Treasury, witnessed the scene through supreme divine abilities. He was horrified. Who was this person? How could he be so strong?

If it were him, he couldn't have withstood the self-destruction of those immortal artifacts either.

If he were to face this guy, he would definitely not fare well.

At that moment, Qin Shengjun felt immense pressure, as if his limelight had been stolen. Although he had no prior dealings with this person, for some reason, he felt extremely displeased looking at him, as if there was a blood feud between them.

"Heavenly Slash."

Ancestor Qitian roared softly, chopping with his hand like a blade. A horizontal slash directly struck Lin Fan. Just as Lin Fan was about to use a special item, Han Juntian blocked in front of him. "It's been a long time since I've fought a true powerhouse. This rare opportunity, I'd like to give it a try."

"Ancestor Qitian, though you are at the Immortal King realm, I, Han Juntian, have been lingering at the threshold of the Immortal King realm for a long time. Today, I shall experience the power of the Immortal King realm." Han Juntian's body suddenly swelled, his aura burst forth, and in an instant, he unleashed countless divine abilities, bombarding Ancestor Qitian.

Lin Fan couldn't help but admire Han Juntian. Truly impressive. His strength was far inferior to Ancestor Qitian's, yet he had such courage. It was truly admirable.

But since the sect master wanted to clash with Ancestor Qitian, Lin Fan would let him go all out. If things went wrong, he could step in later.

Bang!

Ancestor Qitian's move was directly blocked by Han Juntian, exploding instantly in the void. The residual force scattered in all directions.

"So strong..." Lin Fan marveled. Both Ancestor Qitian and Han Juntian were incredibly powerful. Especially Han Juntian—there was a reason he became the sect master of the Heaven and Earth Sect. Though his strength was much lower than Ancestor Qitian's, he could still withstand his attacks. Such ability was admirable.

Ancestor Qitian glanced at Han Juntian, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his heart. In an instant, his divine abilities activated, and a surge of Immortal King power directly suppressed Han Juntian.

This Immortal King power was extraordinary, shaking all directions.

Han Juntian's expression turned serious. The vast Immortal King power, covering the sky and earth, eventually condensed into a single point, pressing down on him.

"So that's it. The Immortal King realm can impose authority on behalf of heaven. I've been thinking wrong all along. But now it's even better—let me break through all limits under this immense pressure and become an Immortal King." Han Juntian laughed heartily. His boundless battle intent surged, condensing into a pillar of light that tore through heaven and earth.

Han Juntian's eyes stared straight into the void. His hands changed gestures, finally forming a fist that shattered heaven and earth.

"Gate of Immortal King, infinite power."

"Break!"

Han Juntian let out a long roar. A mouthful of immortal energy sprayed from his mouth, condensing into a gate that floated between heaven and earth.
