Chapter 508 - The Band of Enemies (2/2)

“So you knew about the Earth Level Deity’s treasure as well?”

Chen Fan’s interest was piqued.

The Earth Level Deity’s treasure was a well-kept secret and was known only to a handful of powerful Immortal State warriors. Even the Grand Elder of the Dark Witch Chapter knew only bits and pieces about the treasure. That begged the question as to how these Grandmasters learned about the secret. How did they know about the Earth Level Deity?

“The news about this place started to spread just a few days ago. By now, everyone has learned that there was great treasure here waiting to be discovered. That’s why we are all here.”

Leng Jianfeng and Spirit King exchanged a glance before Spirit King put in.

“Just a few days ago?”

Chen Fan was taken aback at first and then his face changed a little. “Someone must have spread it on purpose. They must want to attract me here as well.”

Only a handful of Immortal State Warriors knew about the Earth Level Deity’s treasure. So it was evident to Chen Fan that someone among those handful of Immortal State Warriors wanted to lure him to this location. It wasn’t long before Chen Fan realized who the real culprit was.

“Haha. Chen Beixuan, you finally showed up!”

A shaft of white mist rose from the jungle into the sky, then it turned around and descended to the ground. Inside the mist was a white-haired elder in a white outfit.

The old man hovered above the ground and was shrouded by flowing mists, making him look like a sage.

“An Immortal State Cultivator?”

The turn of events knocked people to the floor.

Two living legends showed up on the Island of Borneo at the same time. This had never happened before. The energy rippled about the old man was unmistakably transcendental and was a sure sign of the old man’s Immortal State level of attainment. Those who had recognized the old man murmured to each other.

“He is the Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect. I thought he died ten years ago.”

“Ancestral Patriarch of the Hong Sect?”

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes.

Chen Fan could not only see through the cloud of mist, but he could also gauge the power of the old man very accurately. He reckoned that the old man was at most the mid-stage of Immortal State, which would put his power somewhere in between Oleg and the Grand Magus G.o.d.

“You are brave to come to me alone. Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you here and now?”

Chen Fan asked with a grin.

“Chen Beixuan, I know you killed Galdan, Oleg and the Grand Magus G.o.d and I truly think that you are as powerful as Ye Qincang and Lin Shuming during their prime. So I am not that foolish to fight against you one on one.”

The Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect pulled a taut face and said sternly.

“There are more Immortal State cultivators?”

People were shocked by the revelation.

They simply couldn’t fathom what the fight would look like with three Immortal State Warriors.

Then the crowd heard a whir in the distant sky. They looked up and saw a helicopter. As the helicopter descended, people saw a sign on the door of the helicopter showing a golden lion. Then the door was open, and a man with azure outfit emerged from within.

“That’s a chopper from Singapore’s special forces. I think that man is a top dog in Singapore.”

Huang Jin murmured quietly.

“Brother Xie, you are late.” The Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect’s voice boomed.

“I had to visit a few of my friends on my way here. I don’t think I missed much, did I?” The man answered and then jumped out of the helicopter.

The man in azure outfit seemed to be walking on invisible stairs as he descended to the ground. His features were well defined with a little bit salt and pepper in his long hair for good measure. He looked like a well-learned Chinese esotericism scholar.

“Your honor, I am your humble descendant, Xie Jintang.”

Uncle Xie who had been standing quietly behind Guo Nuannuan hurried to drop his knees and announced, almost crying: “I am so happy to see you in person during my lifetime.”

“Silly boy, get up now.”

The man in an azure outfit said.

“He is the Dragon Lord of the Dragon Hall?”

Everyone let out a gasp of cold air.

Compared to the Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect and Chen Beixuan, the Dragon Lord was much more famous in Southeast Asia. Millions of Chinese people in Southeast Asia looked up to the Dragon Hall as their protector and an example of solidarity. The Dragon Hall was one of the key founders of the city-state, Singapore.

In the end, it was the Dragon Lord who had brought Malaysia to heel and agreed to cede part of its land to Singapore.

He was the stuff of legends who deserved an entire chapter on the history book.

“Mid-stage of Immortal State. You are slightly stronger than the last one.” Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and said. Then he shook his head. “But the two of you are still no match against me.”

The energy around the Dragon Lord was observably stronger than that of the Ancestral Patriarch of Hong Sect. Chen Fan wagered that he was not far from the late-stage of Immortal State.

“What about me?”

Before Chen Fan finished his words, a blade aura lanced up in the distance and a scholarly man with a sword strapped on his back appeared before everyone.

“The third Immortal State Warrior?”

By now, people started to feel numb to the shocking developments.
