Chapter 2583: Chapter 2557: Demon Suppression Lock (First Update)
Ye Chen’s gaze tightened as he looked towards Hong Bei.
Fearless in the slightest!
Even as an immense heavenly pressure was bearing down, Ye Chen’s eyes remained unchanged, unshaken.
Indeed, his opponent was extremely powerful!
So what!
If his opponent truly intervenes in the duel, even if he, Ye Chen, dies, he would make his opponent pay a grievous price!
This was his martial way.
It’s just a pity that time is tight, and there’s no time to refine the newly acquired Emperor’s Fire.
The intense gaze between the two on the field instantly made the atmosphere heavy.
At this moment, the Fourth Elder stood out.
He sneered coldly at Hong Bei: “Brother Hong, you really do take good care of your brother, huh? If there’s nothing else, please leave the field.” Although Hong Bei is Hong Yan’s brother, there is an age difference of tens of thousands of years between them; Hong Bei is from an older generation.
Hong Bei glanced at the Fourth Elder with some apprehension and spoke, “Brother Zhao, this year is my brother’s twenty-ninth birthday. His longevity lock needs to be replaced every twenty-nine years. I’m here just to give him the new longevity lock.”
After that, he handed over a deep purple small lock to Hong Yan and whispered, “Take it, don’t disgrace our Human Demon Clan!”
After speaking, his figure flashed, and he was seated in the spectator’s stands.
But when everyone’s gaze fell on the small lock, they were stunned.
What the hell, is this some kind of longevity lock?
This is clearly the Demon Suppression Lock that is renowned in the Divine Kingdom!
It is said that this Demon Suppression Lock, a Supreme Treasure of the Human Demon Clan, dates back to ancient times and there are not many of them!
Though the Demon Suppression Lock has no attack power, it’s said to be used to suppress members of the Ancient Demon Clan! The sealing power is incredibly strong!
If bound by this Demon Suppression Lock, even a human cultivator at the Peak of Disaster Slaying would be unable to break free in a short time!
Now, just before this life-and-death battle, it’s handed over to Hong Yan? And they’re calling it a longevity lock?
What the hell, do they not see us humans as people?!???
The Fourth Elder glared fiercely at Hong Bei. Were they looking down on Divine Extreme Sect, making sneaky moves right before him?
Do they have no shame at all?
He even considered giving the Sect’s Treasure for Ye Chen to use!
But he knew that due to Ye Chen’s pride, he would not accept it!
For a while, the disciples of Divine Extreme Sect were all looking at Hong Yan, Hong Bei, and their group with faces full of resentment and disdain.
However, the few individuals from the Human Demon Clan still had an indifferent demeanor.
Heh, in the face of life and death, of course, all bets are off; what about saving face?
If it was about face, they wouldn’t have ganged up four against one!
Hong Yan knew that by acting this way, he would undoubtedly be despised collectively by the Divine Extreme Sect. He was gambling!
Gambling that after Ye Chen dies, the Divine Extreme Sect will need him!
Otherwise, it’s likely that the Divine Extreme Sect won’t be able to accommodate them.
In fact, no major power would take them in, because their reputation would be completely ruined!
The only possible place for them to stay would be the Divine Extreme Sect, which lacks exceedingly monstrous disciples.
Then, putting on airs, Hong Yan turned to Ye Chen and said, “Young Master Ye, the longevity lock my father sent, is it okay to wear? If you refuse, I can take it off!”
The Fourth Elder and all the disciples turned their gaze sharply to Ye Chen. In a battle of this level, even being restrained for a moment can decide the outcome! If Ye Chen refuses, the chances of winning will undoubtedly increase greatly!
However, Ye Chen merely replied indifferently, “Whatever.”
The reason for his response is not because Ye Chen is overconfident.
But just now, from the Samsara Graveyard, a domineering voice resounded!
It was from the Kuang Wu Dominator!
“These f*cking animals of the Human Demon Clan are too shameless! I cannot stand this any longer!”
“Although I do not wish to dissipate prematurely, listen well, boy! Should you be in danger, I will give you my power!”
“F*cking Human Demon Clan, bullying humans to this extent!”
“Today, they shall witness just how formidable the power of mine and yours can be.”
Ye Chen still had some fondness for the Kuang Wu Dominator.
Each of the powerhouses in the Samsara Graveyard had a distinct personality.
Six Paths Sword God was carefree.
Ancient Medical God was obstinate.
But this Kuang Wu Dominator was frank and straightforward, not tolerating a speck of dust in his sight.
Often times, he would volunteer to fight without even being asked.
At this moment, upon receiving Ye Chen’s response, Hong Yan revealed a smile and said to the Fourth Elder, “Then, Fourth Elder, please proceed quickly.”
The crowd fell silent, their gazes upon Hong Yan filled with yet another fraction of disgust!
Disgusting!
Utterly disgusting!
To cheat is one thing, but to cheat and yet pretend to be righteous?!
And to use Ye Chen’s pride, deliberately asking that question?
It’s nauseating!
However, since Ye Chen has agreed, no one else could say much else.
Chu Ying, on the stands, clenched her fists tightly, her beautiful eyes filled with anger as she glared at Ye Chen, muttering hatefully, “What an idiot!”
The Fourth Elder glanced at Ye Chen, his eyes full of concern, yet he still announced in a without changing his tone, “The deathmatch, begins!”
With that said, his figure flashed, and he left the Death Battle Arena.
Yu Feiye looked at the indifferent Ye Chen before him, a hint of mockery on his face as he chuckled to Hong Yan, “Brother Hong, I heard that our Young Master Ye has successfully made a breakthrough in the Seventh Level of the Seven Star Refining God Pavilion, the first ever since the beginning of time! How is it that his level of cultivation seems to have not advanced at all?”
The crowd heard this and also slightly furrowed their brows!
Originally, they were excited to hear that Ye Chen had passed through the Seven Star Refining God Pavilion. It was well-known that Ye Chen’s strength had surged in the Divine Devil Pond, and having emerged from the Refining God Pavilion, which shared its name with the Body Cleansing Pool, one would expect his strength to have skyrocketed, right?
But Ye Chen’s Martial Arts Cultivation Realm had not changed in the slightest; he was still at the Great Void One Layer Heaven.
This made many people even more worried.
“Didn’t I hear that Young Master Ye set a record in the Seven Star Refining God Pavilion? His strength doesn’t seem to have changed?”
“Err… The Refining God Pavilion supposedly enhances one’s comprehension of intents…”
“Intents?”
Upon hearing this, the crowd shook their heads. Such abstract and ethereal things like intents, even if they improved, how much strength could they really add?
This battle was going to be tough for Ye Chen!
On one side was the frenzied stacking of power and resources, while on the other, an improvement in intents?
How could this fight even be fair?
The hearts of the audience tightened; they certainly did not wish to see the Human Demon Clan victorious!
They couldn’t help but shout out: “Ye Chen, you can do it!”
“Take down those despicable Human Demons!”
“Avenge Lian Xuanqi and the others!”
The members of the Human Demon Clan heard this and smiled faintly, utterly unconcerned by the one-sided support from the audience, confident that in the end, they would be the ones laughing.
Hong Yan’s gaze flickered, and he felt reassured in his heart. A few days ago, when he heard about Ye Chen’s successful breakthrough in the Refining God Pavilion, he was quite unsettled.
He had bet everything on this, and if something went wrong now, he would be finished, and so would the entire Hong Family!
However, now, seeing Ye Chen’s cultivation level, he finally felt at ease.
