Chapter 2687: Chapter 2661: Kneeling Down (Four Updates)
After absorbing numerous treasures, especially the Divine Origin Essence Blood, Ye Chen’s physical power ascended to an absolutely shocking level!
It had even surpassed the limits of Heaven Splitting Power enhancement!
Moreover, with the bloodline ascension brought by absorbing Divine Origin Essence Blood, the cultivation method that had somewhat lagged behind Ye Chen’s current strength now surged violently in amplification!
Just in terms of pure power alone, it brought an unfathomable increase!
That single punch—its destructive power multiplied geometrically!
And he hadn’t even activated the Soaring Wind Divine Vein yet!
Ye Chen didn’t strike immediately; he endured silently.
“Damn it! What the hell is with this kid; he’s too fucking strange!?”
Wu Keren roared in terror, his fear genuinely consuming him! With his strength, beating Zhao Chunwu—even in a single move—was plausible. After all, Chaos Realm advancements had vast disparities with each division!
Even though he’d just crossed into Chaos Three-layered Heaven, while Zhao Chunwu sat at the peak of Second Layer Heaven, they were in wholly different realms!
But what Ye Chen demonstrated wasn’t just overwhelming; it was crushing!
Casual punches delivering absolute domination!
Was this still human? And what the hell—how many realms had he transcended? They were impossible to count! If this wasn’t a monster, then what was? This utterly defied martial arts logic!
Wu Keren flipped his wrist, grasped a Dragonslayer Sword, and simultaneously, a rune emerged in his palm—the Slave Engraving!
Wu Keren forced an awkwardly cold smile and said, “Kid, aren’t you arrogant? Don’t forget, the engraving I planted in your body!”
Chen Yida also drew out his Heavy Sword as he heard this, his face lighting up with joy!
With this Slave Engraving, Ye Chen’s divine soul could be torn apart entirely!
“Oh.” Ye Chen sneered at Wu Keren, his expression calm as the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword fell into his grasp. “Then why don’t you activate the engraving?”
His eyes flickered slightly; at full strength, his combat prowess was near Chaos Second Layer Heaven.
Even though the previous punch had overextended him, he needed to tread cautiously against Wu Keren.
“S-Stay back… Don’t come closer…”
Wu Keren involuntarily stepped back, aiming the rune at Ye Chen, his body trembling slightly!
Why?
Why was Ye Chen still so fearlessly confident?
The Slave Engraving—wasn’t it supposed to be irresistible even for cultivators several smaller realms ahead?
Yet…
Yet why did Wu Keren feel the engraving had no effect on Ye Chen?
He even hesitated to activate it!
“What’s the matter?”
Ye Chen’s face showed a faint trace of mockery. “Earlier, wasn’t it because you couldn’t find the Divine Origin Essence Blood, you lashed out at me—without hesitation, suppressing me, a Seventh Divine Nation member, with your aura intending to kill me?”
“Now, the mighty monstrous genius of the Fourth Divine Nation—why are you trembling before me? Hmm?”
“To tell you the truth, the Divine Origin Essence Blood with Seven-layered Blood Light was taken by me, and I’ve already absorbed it.”
By then, Ye Chen was but five steps away from Wu Keren.
“Do you think I believe you?!”
Wu Keren’s fear erupted fully as he let out a shriek. Light streamed from the rune in his hand!
At the same time, boundlessly surging spiritual energy, leagues stronger than Zhao Chunwu’s—so dense it almost condensed into liquid—violently funneled into the Dragonslayer Sword in his hand!
“Wind-Riding Elemental Sword!!!”
With a single slash, the void shattered; icy, piercing wind pressure roared as if it emanated from the Netherworld. As Wu Keren struck out, his figure wove through the void alongside the sword light, sword qi rippling, as though it could grind heaven and earth’s foundations to dust!
The Wind-Riding Elemental Sword was Chengfeng Sect’s sect martial technique!
One level higher than the Yellow Dragon Sky Dance Sword!
It wasn’t just a high-level sword technique; it was also a high-level movement technique!
The combination of sword and movement techniques made it exceedingly mysterious and incredibly sharp!
“Die, die, DIE!!!”
Wu Keren was utterly consumed by madness. Worthless—it was truly worthless!
The Slave Engraving had no effect anymore!
Impossible!
Paired with the terrifying punch Ye Chen threw earlier, this was eerie enough to chill the soul!
Splatt splatt splatt…
Blood light flickered—Ye Chen’s body was pierced through by countless sword lights!
Wu Keren’s face lit up with joy!
But just then!
“Soaring Wind Divine Vein, Ling Xiao Martial Intent—activate!”
A True Martial Intent with overwhelming divine pressure exploded forth, crashing violently into his brain!
Accompanying the True Martial Intent was a sword at its peak speed and utter coldness!
One strike, directly tearing the void!
One strike, piercing through Wu Keren’s chest in the void!
With a thunderous roar, the monstrous genius from the Fourth Divine Nation—Chengfeng Sect’s undisputed first talent who’d barely entered Chaos Third Layer Heaven Realm—was obliterated without even a scream, vanishing into blood mist within the void…
Ye Chen slowly withdrew his sword, his body grotesquely covered with wounds.
He was barely standing.
He looked like a bloody figure.
This was his limit!
At this moment, if Chen Yida made his move, Ye Chen would undoubtedly die!
But Ye Chen gambled.
Using all his strength to kill two foes was meant to instill boundless dread in the third!
He trusted Chen Yida wouldn’t dare act against him!
Clang—Chen Yida’s Heavy Sword fell to the ground as he stared blankly at Ye Chen!
Wu Keren…
The Wu Keren who broke countless records within Chengfeng Sect…
Was he simply erased like this, with one effortless strike?
Chen Yida knew well that geniuses could fight across realms, but Ye Chen was over the top…
The gap between Wu Keren and Zhao Chunwu, though nominally one realm, was vast—tens or even hundreds of times greater!
Chen Yida couldn’t even summon the thought to resist!
He muttered incessantly: “This isn’t real… This isn’t real…”
Perhaps this was all an illusion constructed by the Illusion Pearl?
Perhaps none of this had truly happened?
But as his gaze met Ye Chen’s icy eyes, his body shivered, snapping him back to reality!
No illusion could ever create such terrorizing and profoundly unsettling eyes!
“Thud!” Chen Yida dropped to his knees before Ye Chen!
He wept bitterly: “Young Master Ye! I was wrong! I’m entirely at fault! I… I shouldn’t have insulted you; I shouldn’t have offended you. Please give me a chance…”
Ye Chen gazed down at Chen Yida and chuckled—a sinister chuckle so chilling it invoked sweat from anyone who heard it!
Chen Yida caught sight of Ye Chen’s smile, trembling uncontrollably.
He stammered weakly: “Young… Young Master Ye, I-I am a vassal of First Divine Country’s Young Master Kong… Wanfa Sect’s Kong Xian… You know that, right?
I entered this secret realm on behalf of Young Master Kong… Therefore… You… You cannot kill me…”
