Chapter 2236: Ling Yun (Part 4) Chapter 2236: Ling Yun (Part 4) Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Ye Chen did not know this. He fell to the ground again. Drip, drip, drip! Ye Chen’s blood flowed onto the ground, but he refused to give up. He continued to climb up slowly, bit by bit. Ling Yun smiled with disdain. To her, this was merely the last struggle of an ant. If not for her desire to torture Ye Chen, Ling Yun would have killed him with a single slap. Ye Chen continued to move forward step by step. His body was already numb, and he could not feel any strength left. He could only rely on his tenacious willpower. Every step he took left a bloody footprint on the ground. The Rotten Beast Sword in Ye Chen’s hand was shaky, yet he did not give up. There was only one thought in his mind, which was to defeat Ling Yun. The Demon Emperor and Feng Qingyang stood in silence. They could not understand Ye Chen’s stubbornness. From their perspective, this was an idiotic attempt, yet it was somewhat endearing. “Brat, I truly do not understand. What are you trying to do?” “Your actions, like an ant attempting to shake a tree, are simply laughable!” “There should not have been a one-year agreement. I accepted Xia Ruoxue and Ji Siqing as my disciples, so you should have been grateful and not resisted.” Ling Yun aimed to crush all of Ye Chen’s arrogance. Back then, she had humbled herself to save Ye Chen because of her two disciples. Who knew that this boy would not appreciate her kindness? An ant from a low-level martial world should be grateful. The pain in Ye Chen’s right arm made it impossible for him to lift the Rotten Beast Sword with his dominant hand. He could only hold the sword with his left hand. The spectators from the Spirit Immortal Palace remained silent. No one was shouting or cheering now. Although Ye Chen was an enemy, his determination deeply shocked them. If they had been in Ye Chen’s position, they doubted they could have done what he was doing. They would have likely given up long ago. Only Ye Chen continued to foolishly persist. Once, twice, five times, ten times. Ye Chen fell down each time, but in the next moment, he managed to stand up with difficulty. His vision was already blurry, and there was not a single part of his body that was uninjured. Blood flowed out every second. Gradually, Ling Yun grew impatient. Ye Chen was like a cockroach that could not be killed. He stood up every time. Boom! Ling Yun struck again, no longer intending to continue playing with him. She had used eighty percent of her strength in this palm strike, which was more than enough to kill a person on the verge of death. Ye Chen lay sprawled on the ground, feeling pain all over his body. He could sense something biting at him when he moved his fingers slightly. “Ye Chen, as long as you beg for mercy and say a few nice words, I can spare your life. However, you will only be a mortal in the future.” Ling Yun raised her proud head and looked at Ye Chen with disdain. She believed that as long as one was not a fool, they would be able to make the correct choice. Though he would become a mortal, there was a saying that it was better to live a lazy life than to die a good death. Ye Chen grinned when he heard Ling Yun’s words. He struggled to lift his head from the ground. Ptui! He spat on the ground. Though he did not say anything, he had already expressed his stance. He would rather die than live in shame! There were some things that one would never give up, even if it meant death. Ling Yun’s eyes filled with anger as her aura exploded. The moment it erupted, it continuously crushed Ye Chen’s body. Ye Chen gritted his teeth and did not cry out in pain. His mouth was already filled with blood. His body trembled, and the sound of bones breaking echoed. Ye Chen closed his eyes tightly and remained silent. He endured the pain alone. It felt as though tens of thousands of needles were pricking him from head to toe. When Ling Yun saw this scene, her anger only intensified. Her chest heaved up and down as she wanted to see how long Ye Chen could last. Time passed slowly, and Ye Chen’s vision grew more and more blurry. He knew very well that once the entire world turned dark, he would not be able to survive. There were still many things he had not completed if he wished to live. He definitely could not fall here. Ye Chen stretched out three fingers, grasped the Rotten Beast Sword, and stabbed it into his thigh. The intense pain stimulated his nerves and finally gave him a sense of perception. “Vice Palace Master, if it truly does not work, let me destroy his dantian and throw him out!” At this moment, Elder Chen approached Ling Yun and spoke directly. Even he was moved. She could kill him off so easily now, so why torture him like this? The Vice Palace Lord glanced at Elder Chen, and he did not dare to say anything further. He was very aware of Ling Yun’s temper. Once provoked, there would be no good consequences. Fortunately, Elder Chen was quite strong. Otherwise, Ling Yun might have killed him with a single slap. An hour later, Ye Chen felt he was on the verge of fainting. If he lost consciousness, he might never wake up again. “I am no longer interested in you. Elder Chen, cripple his dantian and throw him out.” “I will not kill you, but you can forget about seeing Ruoxue and Siqing again in this lifetime!” As soon as Ling Yun finished speaking, she retracted her aura. Although Ye Chen was about to faint, he could vaguely hear Ling Yun’s words. He would never see Xia Ruoxue and Ji Siqing again! Ye Chen understood very well that it was probably the two women who begged for mercy in exchange for this outcome. He was filled with rage and roared. In an instant, an extremely powerful aura erupted from his dantian. This aura came from the power of the seal on the Reincarnation Tablet! Before this moment, it had never been opened, but at this instant, it was actually broken. Countless forces surged through Ye Chen’s body! Ye Chen had broken through! Thud! There was a dull thud. Just as Ling Yun was about to leave, Ye Chen’s strange figure stood up. Ling Yun frowned and looked at Ye Chen. Logically speaking, Ye Chen should not even have the strength to breathe, let alone stand up. Ye Chen lowered his head. His eyes had turned blood-red, and a drop of blood flowed from his eyes. “Is the Spirit Immortal Palace so noble? Is the gap between us like a chasm? Never to see each other again?” “What right do you have to decide that?” “I, Ye Chen, have my own fate, not that of the heavens!” Ling Yun laughed derisively when she heard this voice. What right did Ye Chen have to make her pay? Thud! Ye Chen took a step forward, and the entire world let out a muffled sound. The demonic energy around his body enveloped him, forming a dark cloak. With every step Ye Chen took, an explosion sounded from heaven and earth, as if the heavens were angry. Ling Yun’s expression gradually turned ugly. She did not expect this turn of events. In that instant, Ye Chen’s body erupted with terrifying power. Moreover, she was shocked to discover that Ye Chen had broken through! Holding the Rotten Beast Sword in his hand, a strange pattern appeared on Ye Chen’s forehead. Beside him, black lotuses bloomed and entered Ye Chen’s body. Black Lotus Body Transformation! The wounds on Ye Chen’s body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Ling Yun did not anticipate this sudden change, and she did not know what to do at all. The feeling that Ye Chen gave her was far too strange. In the sky, red burning clouds continued to bloom. Every step Ye Chen took affected the power of heaven and earth. Ye Chen was furious! The heavens were furious!
