Chapter 677: Fifth-Tier Blood Dao Martial Intent

The First Killing Emperor panted slightly, having one hand crippled was no small injury for him.

He began to operate his cultivation to attempt recovery, while simultaneously expressing disbelief, gritting his teeth and saying, "Chu Nan, your Martial Intent..."

Chu Nan stretched out his fist and clenched it in mid-air, the blood-colored flames burning even more fiercely at that moment.

He said with an arrogant voice, "You’re right, my Blood Dao Martial Intent has reached the fifth tier!"

With these words, Blood Evil City fell silent.

Everyone, including Lu Daochang, stared at Chu Nan as if they had seen a ghost. The claim of realizing fifth-tier Martial Intent was too shocking, as it was almost an impossibility in the Celestial Crossing Realm.

In the Celestial Crossing Realm, only cultivators of the Nine Heavens could elevate Martial Intent to the fourth tier; the fifth tier to them was akin to legend.

"Impossible, how could anyone elevate Martial Intent to the fifth tier? This is the Celestial Crossing Realm; no one can achieve that here."

"That’s right, the fifth-tier Martial Intent is a domain only reachable by cultivators of the Convergence Realm. Chu Nan is merely at the Cloud Sea Realm, not even of the Nine Heavens. How could he accomplish this?"

"Fake, hahaha, it’s fake, fake..." Someone even became somewhat frenzied at this moment.

Yet there were also those who remained composed and said, "If Chu Nan didn’t realize the fifth-tier Martial Intent, then how do you explain him injuring the First Killing Emperor just now?"

"This..."

With these words, a group of Killing Emperors fell into silence.

Indeed, if the fifth-tier Martial Intent wasn’t realized, who could explain how Chu Nan managed to harm the First Killing Emperor?

After all, that was the First Killing Emperor, and only by realizing the legendary fifth-tier Martial Intent could one possibly transcend boundaries to harm him.

Jiang Meier’s eyes flickered continuously, her perspective on Chu Nan evolving with time, at this moment even carrying a hint of fervor.

Lu Daochang was also endlessly amazed. He did not think Chu Nan was lying.

With Chu Nan’s talent to refine the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall and True Martial Holy Hall, realizing the fifth-tier Martial Intent seemingly wasn’t such a difficult task.

Soon, faced with this bloody truth in the First Killing Emperor’s hands, everyone had no choice but to believe it all.

"Unbelievable, unbelievable!"

"Since the split of the two realms, you are the first Martial Artist able to realize the fifth-tier Martial Intent. If you are not killed, you will surely become a significant threat!"

The First Killing Emperor’s murderous intent had never been as intense as now.

The power Chu Nan unleashed already made the First Killing Emperor feel danger. Now that he could harm him, it may not be long before he could also kill him!

"Chu Nan, today we do not decide victory or defeat, but life or death!"

Chu Nan wielded the Golden Sun Bloodbath Sword and said coldly, "You’re right, we only decide life or death!"

Since obtaining the True Martial Holy Hall, Chu Nan’s martial arts cultivation and realm comprehension had grown leaps and bounds, his strength transforming every time he entered the True Martial Holy Hall.

Blood Sea Fury Fist, Celestial Tier moderate Blood Dao Martial Skill.

Chu Nan himself bore the most peculiar Treasure Blood of the lower realm, his cultivation technique centering on the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation, devouring the Ancestral Bloodline.

One could say, since his birth, Chu Nan had an inseparable bond with the Blood Dao.

Though Sword Dao is Chu Nan’s main training, the Blood Dao always stayed ahead of Sword Dao up until now. With the powerful accumulation in Blood Dao, coupled with the legacy of the True Martial Holy Hall.

Chu Nan accomplished what almost no one in the Celestial Crossing Realm could: elevating Martial Intent comprehension to the fifth tier.

Reaching the fifth-tier Martial Intent represented an entirely new realm and scenery.

Under the blessing of fifth-tier Martial Intent, Chu Nan’s Blood Dao was already grazing the border of the Nine Heavens. If his other martial arts were added, he was confident in battling a cultivator of the Nine Heavens.

This was the foundation of Chu Nan challenging the First Killing Emperor!

The furious First Killing Emperor spoke coldly, once again pressing toward Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, now kneel and submit to me, and I may spare your life; otherwise, under the power of the Nine Heavens, you shall be obliterated!"

Chu Nan’s injuries had already healed, and he unhesitatingly refused, "First Killing Emperor, at this point, stop entertaining such delusions."

"Today in this Blood Evil City, only one of us can live, you must die!"

As the battle continued, Chu Nan’s murderous intent toward the First Killing Emperor became even stronger.

From his fight with the First Killing Emperor, Chu Nan vaguely discerned some eerie traces from his presence, and if his suspicions were confirmed, no matter what, the First Killing Emperor had to die today.

"Chu Nan, since you are stubbornly ignorant, then don’t blame me." The First Killing Emperor, full of murderous intent, transformed his body into an elusive golden light.

This golden light was incredibly fast, arriving in front of Chu Nan in an instant.

The terrifying speed left even Chu Nan momentarily unable to react. He then saw the First Killing Emperor’s fist, glowing with golden light, descend upon him once more.

"Palm Heart Killing Fist!"

Boom!

A punch landed on Chu Nan’s abdomen, he immediately felt as if his body was struck by an enormous hammer, like a kite with a broken string he flew backward.

His body crashed to the ground, creating a deep trench and collapsing a large section of buildings.

When the First Killing Emperor unleashed the full murderous intent of a Nine Heavens cultivator, his power was truly overwhelming and unparalleled!

Lu Daochang’s expression changed and prepared to intervene at the crucial moment to save Chu Nan.

No matter what, Chu Nan could not die here, as for any agreements, in front of a peak Nine Heavens cultivator, those agreements were simply ignored.

"Pfft!"

Chu Nan spat out a mouthful of blood, his chest heaving violently amidst the ruins.

That punch from the First Killing Emperor not only sent him flying but also tore through his internal organs with its gold-attribute spiritual power.

If it weren’t for Chu Nan’s strong physical body, nourished by the Ancestral Bloodline, that punch alone might have cost him his life.

However, even so, Chu Nan’s internal organs continued to bleed profusely, the recent strike leaving him with very serious internal injuries.

But fortunately, the power of the Treasure Blood was formidable enough, during Chu Nan’s weaker moments it could almost bring him back from the brink of death, let alone deal with these non-lethal injuries now.

With each breath, large injuries began to heal, without leaving any lingering issues.

"You’re not dead yet!" The First Killing Emperor’s expression changed to one of surprise seeing Chu Nan slowly getting up.

Chu Nan’s strength was beyond his imagination. Not only did he realize the fifth-tier Martial Intent that no one had ever succeeded in, since the split of the two realms, but he also forged such a terrifying physical body.

The stronger Chu Nan appeared, the more he made the First Killing Emperor apprehensive, and his murderous intent grew even more intense.

"Fine, since you’re so hard to kill, I’ll turn you into minced meat, and I won’t believe you can still live!" The First Killing Emperor’s murderous intent almost became solid.

His body once again transformed into a golden light, charging toward Chu Nan.

However, this time, Chu Nan was prepared, and as the First Killing Emperor approached, he spoke coldly, "First Killing Emperor, the same technique won’t work on me!"
