Chapter 2354 2328 Demanding a Life (Third Update)
Chapter 2354: Chapter 2328: Demanding a Life! (Third Update) Chapter 2354: Chapter 2328: Demanding a Life! (Third Update) This single utterance of “one” was truly like a deathly spell from the king of hell, causing everyone’s bodies to jolt in fright, shaking them to the core!
Xiang Yang roared furiously, “He can’t turn to mist while attacking, Tong Niu, your defense is strong, take the lead, the rest of us will attack!”
Tong Niu’s gaze sharpened, his hand flipping over to reveal a large shield. With a loud cry like the boom of spring thunder, he thrust forward with the shield, charging at Ye Chen!
This shield, neither gold nor stone, shimmered with scarlet-gold spiritual light and its surface was engraved with countless ancient runes—it was clearly a saint artifact shield!
Yet Ye Chen showed no fear at all, brandishing the Dragonslayer Sword as he met the onslaught head-on!
Xiang Yang and the others shifted their positions, attacking Ye Chen once again!
Ye Chen’s form soared in an instant, a faint layer of flame covering his body as the Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline was activated to its utmost, employing techniques like the Burning Blood Technique and divine powers such as divine blood!
His tremendous force soared to its peak!
Along with this force, the third sword technique of Six Paths Sword God, the Aeon Lightning Sword, was unleashed!
With a thunderous boom, this supremely powerful strike left onlookers questioning whether it was a hammer capable of collapsing an entire mountain!
The sword actually sent Tong Niu—who possessed an inconceivably robust body, formidable strength, and a saint artifact shield—flying backward, even causing him to spit out a mouthful of fresh blood!
Horrifying!
Too horrifying!
This was Tong Niu, after all! Even with the protection of a saint artifact shield, he was still sent flying and injured?
Just how terrifying was that power?
If it were an ordinary person, even with a large shield for defense, they would likely be shaken to their core, their internal organs reduced to dust, wouldn’t they?
However, at the same time, Xiang Yang and the others’ strikes fully penetrated Ye Chen’s body!
A palm imprint mercilessly struck right at the heart on Ye Chen’s chest!
A sword light slashed towards Ye Chen’s neck!
The last streak of sword qi pierced straight into Ye Chen’s forehead!
Seeing this, Tong Niu and the others all showed expressions of delight!
Three fatal injuries—Ye Chen, no matter how defying he was, surely he couldn’t be more dead than this, right?
However, the few who were originally full of joy instantly revealed looks as if they had seen a ghost!
After the three strikes fell, there emanated a yellow glow around Ye Chen!
The yellow light blocked everything!
The power of the Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline!
How could they have possibly anticipated this?
The spiritual energy within Ye Chen’s dantian drained rapidly, the power of the Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline fading away!
The violent trio of strikes, even when mitigated, still landed!
Ye Chen’s body retreated a few steps, now carrying a trace of blood.
A collaborative strike from these three top-tier talents would severely injure even someone at the Great Void Second Layer Heaven!
Ye Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, yet he smiled,
He smiled in a way that sent chills down one’s spine!
Within those eyes, an intensely cold gaze instantly locked onto Cai Xinghuang!
Cai Xinghuang ranked thirteenth on the Profound Ascension Rankings, one place above Huang Fei, but at this moment, his gaze could no longer remain calm as he faced Ye Chen!
He let out a loud cry and turned around to flee madly toward the outside of Feilei Island!
Cai Xinghuang was known as the Swift Shadow Sword, with sword techniques incredibly fast, and naturally, his movement technique was not slow either!
However, compared to Ye Chen, he was still lacking.
A golden Thunder Light, accompanied by a violent windstorm, suddenly landed right in front of Cai Xinghuang!
Cai Xinghuang roared, “Someone save me!”
While his spiritual energy spun wildly, he exerted his full power to unleash his sword technique towards Ye Chen. In that instant, countless sword qi surged between heaven and earth, and the fierce aura of his flashing sword light seemed as if even the Heaven and Earth Dao could be subdued by this strike!
With a thunderous boom, the sword light struck Ye Chen precisely but once again passed through Ye Chen’s body, as Bai Wu surged wildly, revealing a figure suddenly appearing behind Cai Xinghuang.
With a snap, a flash of the sword, Cai Xinghuang, exhausted from his sword power, couldn’t react in time and was cleaved into two by Ye Chen!
“Two.”
Ye Chen turned around, his gaze coldly falling on the few people who had just arrived, and he uttered a single number from his mouth.
Xiang Yang, Zhao Rui, and Tong Niu all had pale faces. They admitted that Ye Chen had somewhat scared them now.
At the same time, in their hearts, they completely gave up any thoughts of escape. Cai Xinghuang’s speed was considered the fastest among them, yet even he couldn’t escape from Ye Chen’s sword. How could they?
Yet, the enemy before them caused these three top-tier geniuses of the Lingwu Continent to feel a sense of despair that came from deep within their hearts.
How could they not despair against an opponent who, despite having three fatal wounds, was still energetically cutting down a powerhouse not inferior to themselves?
Zhao Rui watched Ye Chen approaching slowly, his gaze trembling crazily because he realized that Ye Chen’s eyes were fixed on him!
Originally, he only saw Ye Chen as an arrogant, foolish, ignorant waste, which is why he agreed to attack him. After all, Ye Chen was just a nobody who barely made it onto the Profound Ascension Rankings, while he was a monstrous genius within the top twenty of the rankings – there was simply no comparison!
But what about now?
The Ye Chen before him, where was the monstrous talent? Monstrous wasn’t enough to describe this person! This man was like a kill god descended upon the earth!
Zhao Rui had not walked an easy path and faced many hardships, but what hardship could compare to the terror and helplessness that Ye Chen now brought him?
This supreme genius, highly regarded in the Lingwu Continent, felt his Dao heart nearly collapse just because of the gaze Ye Chen cast upon him!
With a thud, under the shocked gaze of Xiang Yang and Tong Niu, Zhao Rui actually knelt down. He kowtowed vigorously to Ye Chen, pleading, “Young Master Ye! I was wrong! Please spare me! I… I… I am willing to be your servant!”
Xiang Yang and Tong Niu were dumbstruck!
Zhao Rui was actually begging for mercy and voluntarily becoming someone else’s servant?
Martial Arts Cultivators, especially those with exceptional talent like theirs, are incredibly prideful because practicing martial arts is to defy the heavens. Since it defies the heavens, one naturally strives forward heroically, never bowing down!
A Martial Arts Cultivator’s Mental Realm has a significant impact on their achievements as well!
This fact was certainly not lost on Zhao Rui!
But what he knew even more was that when a person is dead, no matter how strong their Mental Realm is, it’s useless!
With his talents, as long as there were no accidents, he would surely step into the Great Void, and at that time, it would be entering a new world. Even if he did not directly ascend, as a powerhouse of the Great Void, he would have the qualifications to go to the Divine Kingdom!
He had an endless future and a glorious path ahead, so how could he die here?
As long as he became powerful in the future, even if he knelt to Ye Chen now, what of it? Who would dare to hold that against him?
At the same time, he also believed that as a top-tier monstrous genius, he must be of use to Ye Chen! Since he had already volunteered to be a servant, Ye Chen had no reason not to spare him!
However, Ye Chen merely gave Zhao Rui a cold glance, without even bothering to look a second time.
The next moment, a flash of Blood Light.
The kneeling Zhao Rui, his good head, rolled off onto the ground, his soul instantly shattered by the sword qi.
“Three.”
