The Favored Son of Heaven - Chapter 606

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

The fierce battlefield had cooled down once again. Regardless of whether it was the audience that was watching the game online or the martial dao masters that had just retreated and rushed back to the scene, all of them were staring blankly at the empty battlefield. For a moment, no one could figure out what they were supposed to do next.

With Xue Tian and Shang Guan Chuan Qi causing such a scene, the Great Ensemble had long lost the order it once had. The audience had started to feel confused.

Qin Fen looked at the people beside him, got up slowly, and walked toward the center of the battlefield. The people’s focus had also gathered upon him. They wanted to know what this young man who dared comment on a divine beast martial artist not long ago was about to do. Is he going to choose his opponent like Xue Tian did? Who can be his match? Even a near apex-level constellation warrior like Golden Ox Niu was no match for him. Who else can it be? Heaven Emperor? Or Xue Tian? Or can it be Young Hades?

Qin Fen glanced around the audience slowly. His arm started to lift up. He then used his arm to draw a circle and swept his arm horizontally, “Everyone, only the Great Ensemble can bring all the top personages of the world’s martial artists together. Do you really think that it’s enough to come over just to watch a battle? Do you not want to come up here and fight a battle yourself? In such a grand event, would a true martial artist really be satisfied just by watching?”

Regardless of whether it was the martial dao masters who had just rushed back or the other martial dao pros, all of them were looking at Qin Fen in shock. Yet at the same time, their fingers were also twitching subconsciously.

Exactly! The Great Ensemble! Only an event like this can gather the world’s martial dao pros together! Is it enough to just observe and exclaim for a bit? No! It’s definitely not enough!

With just a few words, the atmosphere of the entire battlefield had changed greatly. The martial dao masters exchanged glances and were looking for their opponent. Thriving battle intents rose endlessly in an instant.

Three hundred pros were exhibiting their strongest battle intent and ability at the same time. This kind of situation had never happened before!

Qin Fen looked calmly at the three hundred of the pros whose battle intent had been ignited and had a surge in their blood. He said gently, “Since all of you will also like to fight, how about… everyone present counts as one, and all of you come at once to battle against me.”

“Come at once?”

“Qin Fen said to let all pros including Xue Tian come at once?”

“Is he crazy? Who does he think he is? A divine beast martial artist?”

“Divine beast martial artist? Do you think that Xue Tian, ​​Shang Guan Chuan Qi, and Young Hades are any worse than a divine beast martial artist? With the three of them together, try asking the Vermillion Bird if she would dare to fight!”

The entire network had gone completely crazy. Even the martial artists present were stunned.

Yang Lie laughed as he took the lead in jumping into the sandy battlefield like an ice dragon. He moved his body gently as if he was warming up and said, “Old Qin, once again I’m hearing you call for us to call come at once. I shall not be courteous with you then.”

One to one? Yang Lie challenged Qin Fen confidently, but he also knew that the result of the challenge was a hard win. This was not inferiority, but a clear understanding of one’s strength.

If a person could see himself from the big picture, this was also an improvement.

“I still haven’t forgotten your words during the Recruit Tournament previously, that you will be waiting for us at the peak.” Caesar and Brooks smiled as they walked onto the battlefield together, “Have you reached the peak yet?”

“I never expected that the situation from that year would repeat itself in The Great Ensemble.” Du Peng walked into the battleground, “That time, I was out of luck and couldn’t participate. This time, I must not be excluded. Let me see what position the peak of the younger generation is at.”

A group against one? As the young martial artists step up one after another, and as the martial dao masters saw that a strong and fierce pro like Lu Dongbin had also entered the battlefield and realized that even Heaven Emperor, as well as Ground Treasury, had also entered the battlefield. Their initial thought that this kind of fight was too unfair had begun to change. They then started to walk toward the golden sand battlefield one by one.

Even these strongest young men and those old-time pros had all entered the battlefield. What’s there to worry about? Since Qin Fen dared to take this lead, he must have some hidden cards other than his arrogant personality to be able to control himself to not kill anyone, right?

Not kill anyone? As this thought flashed in the minds of the martial dao masters, their bodies froze at the same time. What level of difficulty would it be to be able to fight solo against a group? Almost no one could predict the answer to this question! And to not kill anyone? This difficulty was not only doubled, it was in fact raised by more than ten times!

For a moment, the martial dao masters were all thinking: what level has Qin Fen reached?

In just a short period of time, a large number of martial artists were standing on the battleground. Apart from Young Hades who was sitting outside of the battleground, there was only Xue Tian who was standing outside of the battleground holding the katana’s scabbard, as well as Shang Guan Chuan Qi who had just lost to Xue Tian. Even after he had recovered from his injuries, he didn’t have the intention to step up to join in the fight against Qin Fen.

“Such a line-up…” Qin Fen shook his head gently. He looked at the three men outside of the battlefield, “Come on.”

“Our agreed time has yet to come.” Xue Tian shook his head, “I will not fight you.”

Hades pointed toward the people on the field. If you win them, you will then be qualified to challenge and be killed by me. 

Shang Guan Chuan Qi raised his head slightly and gave a faint smile, “Although I have lost against Xue Tian, it doesn’t mean that you are qualified to have me joining this fight…”

Qin Fen smiled at the three men who rejected him. He raised his arm and looked at his strong and powerful palm. He then released a palm attack in midair toward Shang Guan Chuan Qi in the distance. He flipped his hand and at the same time released another palm attack. A style of the Dragon Capturing Weaving Crane was switched into a golden palm and grasped toward Young Hades who was seated in the distance.

These attacks appeared too suddenly, the two young masters had yet to even sense Qin Fen’s battle intent when they saw two light rays attacking toward them.

“Break for me!”

Big Sunset Galaxy smashed on Qin Fen’s Ten Thousand Buddha Greeting and sent up dust in the air. Shang Guan Chuan Qi’s complexion reddened slightly, and his legs couldn’t stop flying backward.

Hades twisted his body three times in a row and felt tightness in his calf suddenly. When he looked down he discovered that his calf had been held by the Hand of the Dragon Capturing Weaving Crane. The strength of an insect warrior unleashed immediately and stunned the golden Hand of the Dragon Capturing Weaving Crane to pieces. However, a golden ray of Unfixed Finger of Great Wisdom had already flown to his chest. Hades raised his hand to grab that golden light but his whole arm immediately went numb. The moment he once again exported his strength to break the Unfixed Finger of Great Wisdom, his chest felt as if it was hit by a heavy hammer. His feet retreated more than ten steps before he finally came to a halt.

“This…”

The two young pros seemed to have been struck by lightning as they looked at Qin Fen with disbelief.

Although Shang Guan Chuan Qi was defeated in the hands of Xue Tian, ​​he had reached a new understanding during the period of time after the defeat. He was confident that if he were to wait until his elemental energy was recovered fully and fight against Xue Tian in his previous state, he would definitely win and at the same time drive out his hidden power.

Even though his elemental energy hadn’t been restored, Shang Guan Chuan Qi was still confident that with his new insight, he wouldn’t lose to Xue Tian as quickly as he did earlier. Yet he didn’t expect that he would be beaten to the point where he’d have to retreat continuously just by Qin Fen’s single palm attack.

This wasn’t about how strong someone’s martial dao techniques were, but instead, bare violence! There wasn’t much finesse in Qin Fen’s single palm attack. It instead relied directly on violence, as if the sky had collapsed and crushed him into pieces.

Hades was more than a hundred times more shocked than Shang Guan Chuan Qi. Just earlier, the shout of the entire Federation had formed a unique aura, one that was much more powerful than compared to the millions of spirit imprinted in the Sahara Desert.

At that moment, Hades’ blood was surging, merging with the surging spirit imprint of everyone in the Federation. After having entered into the Unity of Man and Nature, it wasn’t just the surge that had increased an infinite power. More importantly, he was confident that his fist already had the power of the hearts of everyone in the Federation within it.

Over time, when this imprint had been integrated completely into the martial dao, Hades even had the confidence that he could defeat Qilin! Even now, Hades was confident that he could fight against divine beast martial artists like Vermillion Bird. Even if he were to go against the old White Tiger, he might be able to kill him.

But… Qin Fen! This monster! It only took him two strikes…

Hades couldn’t believe it. When did Qin Fen’s martial dao strength become so powerful!? This was no longer shocking, it’s scary! 

 “I’ll have to thank all of you who are present here today, as well as everyone from the Federation.” Qin Fen looked at the two young pros who were in great shock, “This time’s Great Ensemble had enabled me to really see through the great forces of the world. The Great Ensemble? Divine beast? These are not my purpose. I have stopped caring about these things long ago. The reason as to why I joined this time’s Great Ensemble is none other than to see the world’s martial dao for me to understand certain things that I wasn’t able to understand before.”

As these simple sentences entered the people’s ears, everyone’s hearts had a different kind of shock. It was apparent that Qin Fen’s words were filled with an indescribable arrogance, yet why was it that when these words entered the people’s ears, no one was disgusted by it? Why didn’t anyone feel that he was lying?

“Yang Lie, there’s no need for you guys to look at me like this.” Qin Fen smiled slightly, “You guys have the same amount of time — that is, more than a minute — of The Unity of Man and Nature as I do. Theoretically speaking, the energy you guys have saved would not be less than mine. The only difference is that I already have my very own qi, as well as the fact that I have a newer understanding of martial dao. If there comes a day where you guys have the same understanding, I believe that your success will not be beneath me…”

A burst of chatter erupted from the battleground of hundreds of people, More than a minute of The Unity of Man and Nature? Are these guys monsters? The help from entering the Unity of Man and Nature for just a second was already huge for the martial dao masters. If one could enter the Unity of Man and Nature for two consecutive seconds, the benefits he would get would already be much more than one who entered the Unity of Man and Nature for two separate seconds.

There was no way that two one-second could be compared to two consecutive seconds. The Unity of Man and Nature was not just a simple math equation. It was also because of this, the three seconds done by Yang Lie and the others had made many people extremely envious. As for Hades’ six seconds, it had shocked countless people to the point where they might have nightmares for a whole month.

To enter the Unity of Man and Nature for more than a minute continuously? Are these young men exaggerating? Or have they gone crazy? If this is true, will they even let others live? Although it couldn’t be said that they would definitely be like Qin Fen who had gotten an even clearer picture of martial dao, they each still had infinite potential! The current group of people were much stronger than constellation warriors and were only just slightly lacking in comparison to a divine beast martial artist. Such monsters had never appeared in the history of martial dao.

Could he become a divine beast martial artist? The martial dao pros were extremely confident in Yang Lie and the others. These guys were all natural talent. They were already rare geniuses to begin with. Even a pig would become extraordinarily fierce if it were to enter more than a minute of The Unity of Man and Nature, so what more for a group of martial dao pros?

This… After their initial shock, someone suddenly discovered that Yang Lie and the others were all from Qin Fen’s team, or should it be said that they were all from Dragon Hall! These people were a whole…

If they became divine beasts… The martial artists suddenly realized that if that scenario were to really happen, and if Yang Lie and the others wanted to govern the Federation and sweep the world, it seemed that even the divine beasts today wouldn’t be able to stop them.

If they were all divine beast martial artists, to a certain extent, they would be comparing in terms of number… the number of people on Qin Fen’s side was far more than the number of divine beast martial artists today!

If the old Qin Fen and the others swept the world, not taking into account the divine beast martial artists, then in the near future… there might be a possibility that even including divine beast martial artists would still not be enough to fight against them…

Didi… didi… didi…

A series of tiny electronic audible alarms rang constantly around Qin Fen’s waist.

Phone! Qin Fen did not expect that there would still be someone who wasn’t watching The Great Ensemble at this time and was calling for him.

After connecting the call, the projected image was the image of the Founding Society’s Number One. Almost at the same time, the live broadcast connection of the major satellites had also stopped. The projection became only visible and audible to the people present.

“What’s wrong? The network is down?”

“Damn it! Is there any humanity in the Federation? Qin Fen is about to fight solo against a group, and you cut off the network? I will launch the impeachment of the network minister tomorrow!”

“Hurry up and connect! Qin Fen is about to fight solo against all the pros in the world besides divine beast martial artists!”

Murmurs of complaints came one after another from different parts of the Federation. Someone even shouted that if they did not restore the network connection immediately, he would launch the impeachment of the president tomorrow.

On the quiet battleground, many people were looking at the peculiar big brain in confusion.

“Qin Fen, as well as the pros and divine beasts present. I have bad news for you.” Number One’s voice was filled with remorse, “I don’t know why, but the Queen Bee’s expected date of confinement has been moved forward… the so-called Emperor… has been born…”

Emperor? What is Emperor? A large number of martial dao pros looked at the projection in puzzlement, and the smarter people turned their eyes onto Qilin, Vermillion Bird, and the others. They found that the expression of these apex-level pros who wouldn’t frown even if the planet were to explode had one by one became extremely grave.

“Moved forward?” Qilin got up and looked at the huge strange egg that had a two-meter diameter in the projection. With the green plants surrounding it, a light like metallic luster was shining brightly.

Around the huge egg, powerful Devil Kings accompanied each side of the Queen Bee. Further to the side were the Devil Marshals and Devil Generals, followed quickly by the huge army of devil beasts that had no end to it!
