Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate - Chapter 487

Capítulo 487: A Failed Trump Card

Breaking free, Liang Youwen and his group shot toward Jiang Chen and Lu Yi like a storm. Seven Nirvana Cleansing realm powerhouses, and the strongest of them had already stepped into Late-stage Nirvana Cleansing realm—just their presence made the sky twist, as if the world itself sensed danger.

“Jiang Chen, Lu Yi, surrender!” Liang Youwen barked. “This is our territory. You’re not getting away.”

“Kneel now, or we’ll make sure you wish you were dead.”

On the other side, Lu Yi swallowed hard, his hands trembling a little. “Damn… that’s terrifying.”

“Just keep one busy for me,” Jiang Chen said, putting on a stern expression before rushing at the group alongside Ying Luo.

Lu Yi gritted his teeth, drew a deep breath, and charged in right after him.

“Still daring to fight back?” Liang Youwen scoffed. “You’re only dragging out the ending. Today I’ll show you what real cruelty looks like.”

“Only three Early-stage Nirvana Cleansing realm cultivators… do you not even know how to spell death?” the blue-crowned Supreme Elder added with a cold smirk.

They closed in, each wrapped in a different Great Dao law. Nirvana Cleansing-grade weapons and layers of protective treasures appeared around them, forming a lineup that made Lu Yi’s stomach drop. Just looking at them made the outcome of this fight feel grim.

Then Ying Luo let out a sharp dragon roar. In the blink of an eye, Jiang Chen warped through space and appeared behind the weakest member of the seven—a purple-robed Supreme Elder.

“A Nirvana Peering weapon? Pathetic. Break.” The purple-robed elder didn’t even bother hiding his contempt as he swung his upper-grade Nirvana Cleansing-level weapon to counter the attack.

“Damn it! Jiang Chen, you can’t take him head-on!” Lu Yi shouted, panic tightening his throat. He couldn’t do anything but watch as Jiang Chen swung the Silver Immortal Sword and met the elder’s strike.

Liang Youwen and the other five reacted almost instantly. Their figures blurred into afterimages as they closed in, surrounding Jiang Chen from all sides.

Sneers spread across their faces as they stared him down with complete disdain. In their minds, the outcome was already set—Jiang Chen crushed, gravely injured, terrified and helpless.

But what happened next shattered every expectation.

Boom!

A violent shockwave blasted out from the clash between Jiang Chen and the purple-robed elder, erupting in an instant.

Right after the clash, a force far beyond the Nirvana Cleansing realm swept across the sky, vast and unstoppable—as if it had always been there, waiting.

What—!? The purple-robed elder’s eyes tightened, shock tearing through his mind. Void Tribulation realm? Impossible! How can he release Void Tribulation power!?

No… I don’t want to die! His earlier arrogance collapsed in an instant, replaced by raw terror and disbelief.

But fear couldn’t save him.

In the next heartbeat, Jiang Chen’s overwhelming strength erased the elder’s life force completely.

“No—!!”

The remaining six froze, horrified. Only after the purple-robed elder was already falling did they snap back to their senses and throw out their techniques to block the wave of Void Tribulation-level power crashing toward them.

A jade-green glow burst from Liang Youwen’s body, forming ring after ring of light that wrapped around the other five.

In the same instant, he activated a combined secret technique—Heavenly Will Lone Immortal Art.

With Liang Youwen as the center, the other five lit up as well, each unleashing the subsidiary parts of that same technique. Their strength surged wildly, Immortal Origin Power and their various Great Dao laws flooding straight into Liang Youwen.

Within moments, the power of forty-nine Great Daos gathered inside him.

“Die!!” Liang Youwen roared, blood leaking from his eyes, ears, and nose, his face twisting into something almost demonic. He shot toward Jiang Chen with a long sword wrapped in Great Dao laws.

His combat strength had fully stepped into the Void Tribulation realm.

When two people clash with equal raw strength, the one who controls more Great Dao laws always has the upper hand.

Liang Youwen’s boosted power definitely wasn’t something to take lightly.

But Jiang Chen had far more hidden cards.

So they really do have a Void Tribulation–level backup… but it barely reaches early-stage, and they can only hold it for one breath. After that, all of them will die. Jiang Chen watched Liang Youwen and the others burn through their final trump card, a faint smile tugging at his lips.

Their hidden move was weaker than he expected—good news for him.

With a single thought, Jiang Chen shifted into his dragon-human hybrid form. At the same time, he activated his Void Tribulation Soulring, merging his soul with Shangguan Ning and Nangong Wan.

In an instant, countless Great Dao laws flared to life around him—far more than what Liang Youwen had gathered through the Heavenly Will Lone Immortal Art.

Liang Youwen’s long sword trailed right behind him and slashed down in front of Jiang Chen.

Clang!

The metal clash rang through the sky.

Jiang Chen caught the blade with a single dragon claw, holding it in place.

Waves of force burst out like hurricanes, ripping everything apart around them—space itself seemed to warp from the pressure.

No… this can’t be real! Liang Youwen’s mind reeled.

He watched his strongest strike get stopped with one hand and felt pure despair crash over him.

Even so, instinct pushed him to keep attacking. Great Dao laws of all kinds poured out of him, slamming into Jiang Chen again and again.

But it was pointless.

Jiang Chen controlled even more Great Dao laws than he did. Every attack Liang Youwen launched was canceled out on impact, leaving behind not even a scratch.

The realization made Liang Youwen and the remaining five sink deeper into terror and hopelessness.

Once a full breath passed, Liang Youwen couldn’t hold the Heavenly Will Lone Immortal Art anymore. His power collapsed all at once, leaving him like a punctured balloon.

The other five fell apart the same way.

Their strength was gone. Their fighting spirit was gone. They looked half-dead, barely able to stay upright.

“Lord Jiang Chen… spare us!” Liang Youwen dropped to his knees, his body reduced to little more than skin and bones.

“Lord Jiang Chen, please don’t kill us!”

“We admit everything. We’re willing to be your slaves, your dogs—whatever you want for the rest of our lives!”

“Please… just let us live!”

The moment Liang Youwen knelt, the other five Nirvana Cleansing realm elders hovered shakily and knelt as well, barely able to keep themselves aloft.
