Chapter 2282 The Winner Takes It All


    This time, even Chu Qitian was deeply shocked. He looked at Ye Fan, who had already created


    multiple trails of afterimages down the mountain, and he felt as if he was going mad.


    “How...how is that possible? How on earth did this scoundrel manage to do it? How can his speed


    be so incredibly fast? D*mn it! D*mn it! D*mn it!” Chu Qitian could no longer maintain his


    composure. Originally, he thought that Ye Fan wouldn''t be able to maintain his speed for long.


    However, he didn''t anticipate that what awaited him was not Ye Fan''s exhaustion, but rather a


    second surge from Ye Fan.


    Moreover, the speed was even faster than before! If this continued, he might actually be caught up


    by Ye Fan. Under such pressure, Chu Qitian changed his previous slow pace and gritted his teeth to


    increase his stride. However, Chu Qitian''s speed had already reached its limit, and even with the aid


    of his willpower, he couldn''t increase it by much.


    As a result, the distance between Chu Qitian and Ye Fan continued to narrow down. He couldn''t do


    anything about it. The power of Thunder God Body was truly formidable. With the help of the Power


    of Lightning, Ye Fan was able to resist most of the oppression from his surroundings. Under such


    circumstances, Ye Fan''s speed was naturally much faster than Chu Qitian''s.


    I''m catching up! I''m about to catch up! There''s hope in this world.


    As time passed by, Ye Fan''s speed gradually decreased. However, he was still much faster than


    Chu Qitian. Moreover, what surprised Ye Qingtian and the others even more was that at this


    moment, not only did Chu Qitian''s speed of climbing the Celestial Road fail to increase, but it also


    became much slower than before. His movements became so slow as if he was going toe to a


    halt. Someone let out augh.


    “It seems that the evil being has reached its limit. It won''t be able to hold on much longer!” Aaron,


    Carlo, and the others were so excited that they almost jumped up. The situation had taken a


    significant turn in Ye Fan''s favor.


    Perhaps, the one who could open the Sky Gate was truly Chu Tianfan!


    “Come on, Daddy! Go for it! From the distantnd of Jiangdong, Chu Lin waved his fists


    enthusiastically, cheering for his father with all his might. Tang Yun''s eyes were filled with


    anticipation and a hint of prayer. Not only them, but also Xu Lei in Yanjing, Junie in India, and Li Er


    and Lei San who lived in seclusion in the countryside... All the people who knew him, all those who


    had been moved by Ye Fan were praying for the same person and cheering for him at that moment.


    “Ye Fan, you must be well... Be well and aplish what you want to do.” In the capital of Yanjing,


    a beautiful woman stands tall on the city wall, gazing at the Celestial Road. At the same time, tears


    streamed down her face.


    She was Xu Lei. She was someone who had been chasing after Ye Fan her whole life. To be


    honest, before this, Xu Lei had always thought that the man she loved when young had already left


    her behind. However, the moment Xu Lei caught sight of that extremely tall figure that night, she


    immediately recognized the person.


    It was Ye Fan! He was someone very dear to her. He was still alive. He had returned. Once again,


    he stood at the pinnacle of humanity, at the forefront of life and death in this world! It was during the


    hard times that the heroes were revealed.


    Ye Fan, perhaps, was born to be a hero. Every time she faced a hard time, he would always appear


    at just the right time. Be it the crisis of the Chu Sect back then or the current catastrophe at Dragon


    Gate, he captivated the world''s gaze. The man who bathed in thunder as he ascended the steps


    had finally caught up with Chu Qitian. However, Ye Fan''s target had never been Chu Qitian.


    His goal was to open the Sky Gate! Thus, as Ye Fan surpassed Chu Qitian, Ye Fan''s gaze didn''t


    even linger on him for a moment. Instead, he headed straight toward the Sky Gate at the end of the


    Celestial Road. However, what no one expected was that at this very moment, Chu Qitian, who


    seemed to have exhausted all his strength, suddenlyunched a ferocious attack. He struck fiercely


    toward Ye Fan''s chest with his palm.


    “This is bad!” someone shouted.


    “Ye Fan, be careful!” another person said. The sudden twist of events startled everyone. All of them


    held their breath at that moment. After all, no one had expected that Symborsus would be so


    malicious and resort to such underhanded tactics. He pretended to be weak in front of the enemy


    and only to deliver a fatal blow like a venomous snake striking from its den when the time was right.


    Ye Fan naturally couldn''t dodge in time and was fiercely struck by Chu Qitian''s palm.


    Blood gushed from his mouth as he swiftly rolled down the celestial stairway.


    “Hahaha. Chu Tianfan, you''re too inexperienced topete with me. Do you really think you can


    open the Sky Gate? Even your ancestor, Chu Yunyang, couldn''t achieve it back then. You''re simply


    daydreaming. Ordinary people are destined to be ordinary. Ants are forever ants. You Earthlings are


    fated to eternally submit to me, Symborsus!” Chu Qitianughed arrogantly, looking at Ye Fan who


    had already been struck by his palm and sent flying away. At that moment, Chu Qitian revealed a


    victorious smile.


    Indeed. In fact, Symborsus had been disguising itself all along. Its stamina hadn''t reached its limit


    yet. The reason it slowed down was twofold. First, to regain some strength, and second, to


    deliberately wait for Ye Fan.


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    First, it showed the enemy its weakness, and then itunched a deadly strike. From Chu Qitian''s


    point of view, once he sessfullynded a palm strike, there would be no way for Ye Fan to make


    aeback. After all, at this point on the Celestial Road, both he and Ye Fan had relied almost


    entirely on their willpower to keep going. With Ye Fan being hit by another palm strike and wounded,


    it would be impossible for him to turn the tables.


    However, Chu Qitian underestimated Ye Fan''s determination. Just as he thought he could climb up


    to the highest peak of the Celestial Road with ease, he suddenly heard heavy gasping and the


    sound of heavy footsteps from behind. Chu Qitian turned around and the moment he saw the


    person behind him, he was so startled that he almost jumped up. He felt as if his scalp was tingling.


    “Ye Fan!” he shouted. Ye Fan caught up again.


    At this moment, Ye Fan''s mouth was stained with blood, and he looked determined. His clothes


    were drenched in sweat. The Sword of Yunyang emitted a faint glow, infusing strength into Ye Fan.


    He smiled at Symborsus and said, “Hahaha. I bet you didn''t expect it, but I have caught up again.”


    Chu Qi''s eyes twitched as if he was looking at a devil. He stared at the handsome young man in


    front of him. An inherent shiver came from deep within his heart.


    This guy is too terrifying. I can''t destroy him, and I''m also unable to get rid of him. He clings to me


    like an adhesive ster.


    The most terrifying opponent one could encounter in this world was probably exactly like this. It was


    simply a nightmare!


    “D*mn it! I don''t believe that I can''t kill you!” Chu Qitian was extremely angry, and his power surged


    once more.


    Another heavy blow fiercely descended toward Ye Fan. However, this time, Ye Fan was well-


    prepared and managed to dodge it by quickly moving aside.


    “Demon Frenzy! Daybreaker Palm!” Chu Qi executed several consecutive attacks. That terrifying


    power was like the pouring of thunder from the Ninth Heaven. Ye Fan did not confront it head-on.


    Instead, he chose to dodge it using his movement technique. He moved and maneuvered around


    Chu Qitian in a peculiar manner of movement. Although not fast, his movements were extremely


    agile. With each step, he skillfully dodged Chu Qitian''s attacks.


    Chu Qitian was no stranger to this movement technique. In fact, Symborsus, which currently


    upied Chu Qitian''s soul, had already experienced it before. It was none other than the Nine


    Steps of Yunyang that Ye Fan used when he fought fiercely with Chu Yuan on Mount Yunding. Back


    then, this movement technique had caused Chu Yuan immense difort. At this moment, Ye Fan


    used his agile movement technique once again. He moved like a slippery loach, making it


    impossible for Chu Qitian tond any hits on him. Instead, it greatly drained Chu Qitian''s stamina.


    However, relying solely on this movement technique, Ye Fan found it difficult to break free from Chu


    Qitian''s obstruction. As a result, the two of them ended up in a stalemate for a while. Upon realizing


    that, Chu Qitian also stopped in his tracks. He stood before the Celestial Road, gazing down at the


    vast sky.


    “Chu Tianfan, if you keep evading like this, neither of us will reach the peak of the Celestial Road!


    Do you dare to face me head-on? The winner takes it all!” Chu Qitian looked around the vast sky.


    His powerful voice echoed in all directions.
