Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven

Chapter 1953 - 1944: Nothing More Than This

Seeing Xiao Fan walk towards the Divine Spear, Mo Wangchen stood still, unmoved.

He wasn’t afraid of Xiao Fan, but in Mo Wangchen’s view, the spear contained an enigmatic power, not easy to retrieve.

"Such a divine weapon should be mine. With my Overlord Body, if I obtain this spear, I shall battle all under heaven, who could withstand it?"

Xiao Fan walked closer, his gaze fiery as he scrutinized the spear before him like a treasured possession.

With that, he squinted his eyes and then without hesitation, reached out his hand to grasp the Divine Spear, intending to pull it from the rock wall and seize it.

"Buzz..."

Suddenly, as his palm lightly touched the spear, an inexplicable force burst forth, astonishing to the extreme, scalding yet icy to the bone, both hot and cold, exceedingly strange.

This power wrapped around Xiao Fan’s entire arm in an instant, frightening him into withdrawing his hand immediately and shielding himself with spiritual power, otherwise, this eerie force would surely destroy his entire arm, reducing him to a one-armed man.

"What a bizarre force."

Following this, Xiao Fan’s brows furrowed instantly, wary of acting further. He stared at the Divine Spear, falling silent.

"Seems like your so-called Overlord Body isn’t much. So-called divine weapons choose their masters, it’s likely that your Overlord Body hasn’t gained its recognition."

Behind him, Mo Wangchen chuckled, then walked slowly forward.

"If even my Overlord Body can’t claim this spear, who in this world can?" Xiao Fan sneered.

He was extremely proud, among the vast lands of the Heavenly Domain’s nine continents, few could catch his eye. Famous to this day, Xiao Fan has fought many battles, countless defeated by his hand. To date, in Xiao Fan’s eyes, he was enough to look down on the present era, few dared to stand against him.

If not even he could claim the Divine Spear, who in this world could?

"The world is vast, and your Overlord Body isn’t truly invincible. You may not succeed, but that doesn’t mean others cannot."

Mo Wangchen spoke casually. As his words fell, brilliance flashed in his eyes. The next moment, he too, without hesitation, reached out to draw the Divine Spear from the stone wall.

"Buzz..."

The strange force erupted again, incredibly startling, its appearance leaving Xiao Fan uneasy. He had personally experienced this force’s terror, even his Overlord Body could scarcely fend off its disturbance.

Watching Mo Wangchen’s palm finally touch the Divine Spear, Xiao Fan couldn’t help but smirk.

He did not believe Mo Wangchen’s so-called Divine King Body could truly resist the force’s corrosion.

"Hmm?"

However, his smile froze because Xiao Fan saw Mo Wangchen truly grasp the spear, letting that eerie force creep along his arm without withdrawing.

"Buzz..."

Only hearing Mo Wangchen let out a low shout, he then exerted his arm forcefully, suddenly pulling the spear free from the stone wall.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

An eerie force filled the air, as if the entire Heaven and Earth dimmed at that moment.

Gloomy light shimmered, sending a chill down the spine, the sharp spear blade emitting an astonishing power, seemingly capable of piercing through the Heavenly Universe, dimming Heaven and Earth, and darkening the sun and moon.

"What a great Divine Spear!"

Staring at the spear in Mo Wangchen’s hand, Xiao Fan’s eyes burned, cold gleams flashing continuously. He suddenly laughed aloud, "Such a divine object, rare in the world, surely the Supreme Weapon used by some Ancient Heavenly Emperor throughout his life to slay. I want it!"

As his words fell, a gleam flashed in his eyes, then he acted without hesitation.

"Buzz..."

On Xiao Fan, an alarming aura erupted, incredibly astonishing. His large hand stretched out, tearing through the void, wanting to seize the spear from Mo Wangchen’s hand.

"Get lost!"

Mo Wangchen snorted coldly, already prepared. Rainbow brilliance erupted around him, the Divine King Body fully manifesting at that moment.

"Bang!"

His five fingers transformed into a palm, pressing out forcefully, instantly colliding with Xiao Fan’s reaching hand.

An explosion of astonishing energy, as if two great mountains clashing, the earth quaking, Heaven and Earth losing color.

After one strike, both retreated three steps each, standing opposed, neither gaining the upper hand.

"What astonishing power, is this your Divine King Body?"

Xiao Fan narrowed his eyes, surprised. From start to finish, he hadn’t regarded Mo Wangchen’s Divine King Body in his eyes, yet the previous clash made him truly realize its complexity. In close combat, comparing their body’s power, his Overlord Body might not necessarily have an advantage.

"Your Overlord Body isn’t bad either."

Mo Wangchen stood in place, speaking quietly.

Though his face remained unchanged, his heart was utterly surprised.

This Xiao Fan is extraordinary.

Not mentioning this person’s Overlord Body, his cultivation itself has reached an exceedingly high level, if guessed correctly, at least has Unity Realm Stage Fourfold strength.

As for Mo Wangchen himself, he’s only Reverse Life Realm Sevenfold, relying on the Divine King Body and various techniques to barely match ordinary Unity Realm experts, but with Xiao Fan’s Unity Realm Stage Fourfold, the gap between them is truly immense. In Mo Wangchen’s own view, this battle today holds no chance of victory.

Therefore, from the start, he hadn’t planned to fight to the death with Xiao Fan, but to conserve energy and wait for an opportunity to leave.

Though no assurance of defeating Xiao Fan, Mo Wangchen thought, relying on various means, escaping whole from him wouldn’t be difficult.

"Mo Wangchen, if not for meeting me today, against someone else, perhaps capturing you would truly be impossible. Unfortunately, you’re unlucky, in my hands, you have no escape." Xiao Fan sneered, seemingly having Mo Wangchen cornered.

"Is that so?"

Mo Wangchen was disdainful, continued, "Today, I’m leaving, you cannot stop me."

"Arrogant."

Xiao Fan snorted coldly, striding forward, pressing again.

On him, a formidable aura spread.

"Get lost!"

Mo Wangchen shouted coldly, not retreating but instead advancing.

The Divine Spear thrust forcefully, dark light bursting forth, as if the entire Heaven and Earth’s momentum moved with it, completely channeling into Mo Wangchen’s strike.

Xiao Fan’s face grew startled; this spear was extraordinarily fearsome. He dared not confront it head-on, forced to withdraw in the face of Mo Wangchen’s attack.

"Overlord Body? Just like that!"

Mo Wangchen sneered, continuing, "You are so conceited, boasting that few dare to compare with you, yet now in my hand, you are repelled by one strike?"

"This spear is extraordinary, belonging to an Ancient Heavenly Emperor. Though arrogant, I’m aware of its dangers. Mo Wangchen, it’s not you forcing me back, but this spear making me wary. You may be celebrating prematurely." Xiao Fan snorted coldly.

"Is that so?"

Mo Wangchen smiled, "Regardless, now the spear is in my hand. To capture me, you Xiao Fan aren’t qualified."

With that, he turned, holding the spear leapt away, intending to leave without entangling too long with Xiao Fan.

"Can you escape?"

Xiao Fan’s face turned serious, he pushed off immediately, body leaping forward, pursuing.
