A voice boomed from afar, accompanied by continuous thunderous rumbling in the sky, as though tens of thousands of warhorses were galloping. The momentum was terrifying.
Mo Fan looked up and saw a group of grey-robed cultivators riding emerald-scaled, horse-like exotic beasts that resembled heavenly steeds, racing towards them from the distant horizon. The roaring sound came from them.
Behind them, a golden chariot floated in the air, pulled by six even more enormous beasts. It looked like a procession of celestial gods!
“It’s the Su family’s Feathered Immortal Cavalry!”
“And the Beast King Chariot!”
At that moment, cultivators all around the harbour cried out in shock, their faces filled with alarm. They clearly feared this charging army of exotic beasts.
The Su family again?
Mo Fan frowned slightly. Before he could ask, Xia An’s spiritual message reached his ears. “This is bad. The Su family’s War King has come!”
“Who is the Su family War King? Is he very powerful?”
Mo Fan looked at the girl in puzzlement.
“Apart from the Nascent Soul ancestor, the strongest members of the Su family are the Three Kings, all at the peak of Core Formation. They are the Heaven King ‘Su Cangtian’, the Earth King ‘Su Cangjun’, and the War King ‘Su Zhan’.
Among them, the War King is a rising star from a younger generation than the Heaven and Earth Kings. He is the leading figure of the Su family’s younger members.
It is said that Su Zhan has been extraordinarily gifted since childhood and possesses a divine physique. Before reaching a hundred years of age, he was already publicly acknowledged as the foremost of the Three Kings. Rumour has it that he is now at the half-step Nascent Soul stage!”
Xia An spoke with a grave expression and added worriedly, “He must have been alerted by Su Ze’s death. We’re in serious trouble now!”
“Half-step Nascent Soul?”
Even Mo Fan could not help drawing in a sharp breath when he heard this.
A half-step Nascent Soul cultivator who also possessed a divine physique would be difficult for even his main body to defeat, let alone this Water Moon avatar.
This immediately reminded him of Bai Tian Tian.
She had once told him that the “Young Master Su” who had nearly caused her death seemed to possess a divine physique!
At this thought, Mo Fan’s mind stirred. He immediately sent a spiritual message. “Apart from this Su Zhan, does the Su family have anyone else with a divine constitution?”
“Benefactor, divine constitutions are not cabbages. How could there be so many? Across the entire Three Saints Island, I have only ever heard of Su Zhan possessing one. Even the heaven-chosen genius of the Wang family does not have one,” Xia An replied, shaking her head.
As expected, this Su Zhan was almost certainly that Young Master Su!
A cold glint flickered in Mo Fan’s eyes, but it quickly vanished.
He knew full well how vast the gap was between him and this Su Zhan right now. He would naturally not act recklessly.
As the so-called Feathered Immortal Cavalry arrived overhead, the entire harbour and docks instantly fell silent.
In truth, there were not many Feathered Immortal riders, only a dozen or so. After reaching the airspace above the harbour, they began circling while the cultivators atop them coldly scanned the crowd below.
Ordinary mortals with no cultivation, upon seeing this, immediately knelt and kowtowed, shouting in unison towards the Su family cultivators in the sky, “We pay our respects to the great immortal lords!!”
Faced with this scene, the Su family cultivators merely sneered repeatedly and said nothing.
At that moment, a terrifying wave of divine sense instantly swept over the entire harbour!
Mo Fan’s heart jolted, but he quickly regained his composure and, like everyone else, looked towards the golden chariot.
The golden chariot was pulled by six huge beasts that resembled fine steeds.
These beasts had horse-like bodies, white fur with black tails, tiger-like paws, a single black horn on their heads, mouths full of fangs, and long flowing hair that fluttered in the wind. They looked extraordinarily noble and majestic.
Yet Mo Fan noticed that these beasts had no wings. Their ability to fly came entirely from their own immense power. They exuded the aura of the King realm!
By comparison, the smaller emerald Feathered beasts around them, though also wingless, had clouds forming beneath their hooves, which allowed them to fly.
“Could all these beast mounts be demons?”
Mo Fan’s brows furrowed. He now truly understood the profound foundation of the Su family.
King-realm great demons were overlords who ruled their own territories even in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, yet here they had been reduced to pulling chariots for the Su family!
This alone revealed the terrifying strength of the Su family!
That divine sense swept over every single person in the harbour without restraint. It quickly passed over Mo Fan, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.
But right after, the divine sense returned, contracted, and settled firmly upon Mo Fan and his group.
Sensing this, all five of them felt their hearts sink.
“Who are you people?”
“Who taught you the qi-concealing technique?”
An indifferent voice rang out from within the golden chariot.
In an instant, the dozen-plus Feathered Immortal riders descended and surrounded Mo Fan’s group of five.
Seeing this, the faces of the Xia siblings changed drastically. They were about to act.
But Mo Fan merely smiled and said, “Naturally, it was taught by my sect!”
“Although the qi-concealing technique is not some profound spell, it is not something just anyone can learn. State your origins, or you will not be leaving!”
The indifferent voice came again from the golden chariot, accompanied by divine sense that locked firmly onto Mo Fan.
Mo Fan smiled at this, then simply stopped using the qi-concealing technique. His full Core Formation cultivation instantly burst forth.
He raised his head towards the golden chariot and said with a smile, “I have long heard that the Su family’s War King is incomparably domineering. Seeing you today, the reputation is well deserved!”
“But do you really want me to reveal my sect?”
“Insolence!”
“So much nonsense!”
“The War King told you to speak, so speak!”
Before the person in the golden chariot could respond, the surrounding Feathered Immortal riders shouted in anger first, glaring at Mo Fan with hostile expressions.
“Speak, and you may yet live!”
“Refuse, and you will surely die!”
A cold laugh emerged from the golden chariot, making the Xia siblings extremely nervous.
“Very well. Since the War King wishes to know, I shall show you!”
Mo Fan chuckled lightly, completely unconcerned. He immediately formed hand seals and circulated the Sun Heaven Scripture.
In an instant, spiritual power surged within his body. His mana roared forth, condensing behind him into a blazing great sun!
The moment the sun appeared, dazzling light poured out, forcing all the surrounding cultivators to involuntarily shut their eyes. None dared to look directly at it.
At the same time, terrifying waves of heat spread outward, pushing the nearby cultivators back involuntarily.
Not only that, even the Su family’s Feathered Immortal mounts grew restless and agitated.
“What are you trying to do?!”
The Su family cultivators atop the Feathered beasts shouted in shock and fury. They all summoned standardised spear-type artefacts, soothing their mounts while berating Mo Fan.
“Silence!”
At that moment, a cold snort came from within the golden chariot, instantly quieting the Su family cultivators.
“Manifesting the heavenly sun with mana. You are a cultivator of the Sun Moon Divine Sect?”
A corner of the golden chariot’s curtain was lifted, finally allowing Mo Fan to see the person inside.
