Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 986 - Borrowing Another’s Powers to Temper Body

Zhuge Yan channeled his lightning art. Countless lightning bolts transformed into lightning dragons under his will, baring their fangs and claws. Their roars of fury resounded, shaking heaven and earth.

These dragons could tear through space with a swipe of their claws, exuding sheer terror. The crowd turned pale, overwhelmed by shock.

They knew Zhuge Yan was powerful, but not to this extent. Compared to him, Tan Feng was like a child before an adult.

Any one of these lightning dragons could compare to an ordinary seventh-level Manifestation realm expert, but Zhuge Yan had effortlessly condensed dozens. His immense strength simply left others raising their eyebrows in shock.

Chen Fan was also somewhat surprised in his heart. Zhuge Yan’s strength had exceeded his expectations.

As expected of a peerless pride of heaven with an innate lightning body—this move alone eclipsed many. Even among prodigies, the gap was staggering.

A figure like Zhuge Yan could crush dozens of experts at his level. They could stand above all experts at the same level, looking down on all rivals.

No wonder many dared to defy Zhuge Mingyue, the princess, despite the sovereign’s presence.

Given his talent and strength, Zhuge Yan would step into the Legendary realm in the future and become a higher-up of the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

For the sake of their interests and future, these people knew which side to take.

Otherwise, even if these people were given ten more guts, they would not dare to publically ignore Zhuge Mingyue.

This was a real pride of heaven. Compared to Zhuge Yan, Tan Feng was insignificant.

These lightning dragons surged forward, densely packed, nearly blotting out the sky as they charged at Chen Fan. Each dragon radiated a vicious, destructive aura.

Chen Fan let out a cold snort and launched himself forward with explosive force.

Other people feared the power of lightning, but not Chen Fan. The stronger the lightning, the more he relished it.

His hands radiated a golden light, sprinkling bursts of golden light as he flew toward the dragons.

Suddenly, a lightning dragon lunged, jaws wide open, snapping at him.

Chen Fan reached out, grabbed its neck, and crushed it with a squeeze. All of it turned into a mass of energy, which he absorbed.

“What? He actually crushed Senior Brother Zhuge Yan’s lightning dragon and even absorbed it. How is that possible?”

“This is unbelievable. How dare he!”

The Sun Moon Divine Sect’s disciples were dumbfounded.

They were well aware of how terrifying the lightning dragon was; it was comparable to an ordinary seventh-level Manifestation realm expert. However, Chen Fan had caught it like it was a chick.

Didn’t this mean that ordinary seventh-level Manifestation realm experts were completely powerless before Chen Fan?

No wonder he could kill even Tan Feng. After all, Tan Feng couldn’t kill an ordinary seventh-level Manifestation realm expert so easily.

“Hoho, Zhuge Yan, is this all you’re capable of? You disappoint me too much!” Chen Fan sneered coldly and rushed straight into the cluster of lightning dragons. He went on a killing spree and borrowed the power of the lightning to temper his Hegemonic Golden Body.

Chen Fan was delighted—Zhuge Yan was practically feeding him nourishment to enhance his Hegemonic Golden Body. He really wanted to friendzone Zhuge Yan. [1]

“How scary! My god, each of those lightning dragons is equivalent to an ordinary seventh-level Manifestation realm expert, yet that monster is cutting through them like vegetables. This is terrifying!”

“I know, right? Zhuge Yan is a genius and has great strength, but it seems like Chen Fan is no slouch, either. As expected of a disciple from the True Martial Academy.”

“Holy mother of god, I’m also in the seventh-level Manifestation realm, why do I feel so weak right now? Is this the power of disciples from the nine overlord-class forces?”

“Yeah, both of them are too frightening. I’m afraid ordinary seventh-level Manifestation realm experts wouldn’t last a single move against them.”

The crowd’s hearts were shaken seeing Chen Fan going on a rampage.

Those lightning dragons were like tall mountains, pressing down on Chen Fan. Everywhere they went, the space collapsed. Yet, he ignored all of it and rushed into its midst.

Boom!

He blew up a lightning dragon with a stomp.

Dragons that could overwhelm ordinary seventh-level Manifestation realm experts crumbled before him, falling with a single strike.

Boom, boom, boom!

With every explosion, another dragon perished.

The vast energy was absorbed and refined. Electric arcs danced around Chen Fan, making him look like the god of lightning.

Chen Fan felt the Hegemonic Golden Body’s bottleneck loosen again.

Such clear progress made him want to throw his head back and roar.

Advancing in the later stages of the Hegemonic Golden Body was incredibly difficult; even the slightest improvement required immense effort.

Ever since he absorbed the energy of his manifestation tribulation and advanced his Hegemonic Golden Body to level 25, he had only managed to raise it by one level in the past decade, reaching level 26.

Excellent. This is the perfect opportunity to borrow outside forces to improve my Hegemonic Golden Body. In that case, Zhuge Yan, I won’t be ending this fight too soon. Chen Fan thought.

“Hmph, Chen Fan, did you think this is all I’m capable of? You’re too naïve!” Zhuge Yan shouted coldly and also rushed straight into the lightning dragons. Clasping his hand, a lightning saber formed in his grasp.

Between his swings, the air instantly vaporized, and the space crumbled apart as he slashed toward Chen Fan’s head.

He wanted to use Chen Fan’s fresh blood to wash away their shame.

Clang!

The sound of metals colliding rang out. Chen Fan’s large hand swept horizontally, colliding with the lightning blade that slashed at him, causing sparks and lightning snakes to fly everywhere.

The crowd felt a chill in their hearts.

Chen Fan’s physique was too terrifying, grabbing Zhuge Yan’s lightning saber bare-handed. The crowd was so shocked that their eyeballs nearly popped.

Their disbelief only deepened when Zhuge Yan, from the sheer force of impact, was blasted backward, crashing through several lightning dragons, reducing them to nothing.

Was he still human?

Was this still the physique of a human?

In the eyes of countless spectators, Chen Fan was no longer human—he was a ferocious beast in human form.

Chen Fan did not follow up after knocking Zhuge Yan back with his palm strike. He crushed several more lightning dragons in passing and absorbed the power of lightning contained within, pushing his Hegemonic Golden Body to the peak of level 26 in a flash.

Overjoyed, he flew in all directions, massacring dozens of lightning dragons and absorbing them all. In an instant, golden light radiated from him as he successfully broke through to level 27, reaching new heights.
