Chapter 2928 - 2902: Rootless Duckweed! (Fourth Update)
Chapter 2928: Chapter 2902: Rootless Duckweed! (Fourth Update)
Ye Chen didn’t expect such a twist of fate; how could things suddenly be about him?
Everyone’s gaze turned to Ye Chen.
Anger!
Doubt!
Displeasure!
If looks could turn into swords, Ye Chen would already be riddled with a thousand wounds!
"Ye Chen, go and take the bloodline test to verify your identity," Ye Xueqing said.
Ye Ziming immediately understood; Ye Xueqing’s real purpose was revealed.
But after thinking it over, he found Ye Xueqing’s intentions even more confusing.
Earlier, Ye Zigeng had questioned Ye Chen’s identity, but Ye Xueqing said to let things be. Now she was stepping in, asking Ye Chen to walk up to the Soul Nourishing Stele.
If Ye Chen truly didn’t possess Ye Family Bloodline, wouldn’t Ye Xueqing’s earlier intentions be contradictory?
Ye Chen calmly and indifferently met Ye Xueqing’s gaze for a few moments, then leaped up and landed in front of the Soul Nourishing Stele.
There was no avoiding it.
He entered the Samsara Graveyard with his spiritual energy and asked Elder Cang, "Elder Cang, do you know about this Soul Nourishing Stele?"
"Will my Reincarnation Blood be detected?"
Elder Cang fell into deep thought, lifting his head after a few seconds, "You’ve only activated the Soaring Wind Divine Vein and Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline; it’s not considered as having a complete Reincarnation Bloodline, so it should be fine."
"However, this Soul Nourishing Stele is somewhat special, so I can’t be sure."
"If you’re really worried, as the Samsara Master, you can reluctantly use a bit of your power to control this stele."
Ye Chen felt slightly relieved, glanced at Ye Xueqing, who was in the Heavenly God Realm, and thought to himself, "Ye Xueqing, Ye Niang... What are these two scheming? Doubting, probing... Maybe the Heavenly Dao Palace has already noticed my existence."
Ye Chen hesitated no more and placed his hand on the Soul Nourishing Stele. Before inputting a strand of blood essence and energy, he recalled Elder Cang’s words and used a thread of power from his Reincarnation Bloodline to prevent any ’unexpected’ incidents.
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet—seven colors flashed successively, colors changing and fluctuating!
Everyone’s breathing became tense!
Could it be that Ye Chen’s bloodline and potential have reached the limit that the stele can test!!!
Otherwise, why would there be seven flashing colors!
Even if the Samsara Master came personally, it couldn’t achieve this!
Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed, he even felt the stele couldn’t withstand his power and seemed ready to shatter!
This meant that the Soul Nourishing Stele simply couldn’t test his limits!
Whether it’s bloodline or potential!
Indeed!
The Samsara Master is the real taboo of the Ye family!
A mere Soul Nourishing Stele has no qualification to test!
Ye Chen focused his mind, injected bloodline power, and instantly felt a connection with the stele!
Since that’s the case, he could control it!
Everyone present became panic-stricken! Just when they thought this mysterious Ye Chen would create a miracle, an unexpected change occurred! Two beams of light simultaneously dimmed, then ceased their movement.
"What... what’s the meaning of this? He can activate the bloodline beam but hasn’t defined his rank. Does he even have the Ye Family Bloodline?"
"This scenario seems unprecedented; could it be the Soul Nourishing Stele is broken?"
Some of the Ye Family Ancestors frowned heavily.
The bloodline pillar lost its color, but even the ’Potential Pillar’ showed such an anomaly, leaving them puzzled.
Ye Sheng watched this unfold, but he was ecstatic. He pointed at the now-inactive Soul Nourishing Stele and shouted, "He doesn’t have Ye Family Bloodline, see! You all saw it! He’s a spy, he’s from the Heavenly Dao Palace, and Ye Lingtian is colluding with the enemy, he’s the Ye family’s traitor, even more hateful!"
Ye Chen shook his head. It was astonishing to see Ye Ziming train such a worthless disciple.
The emotions of the crowd intensified, doubting Ye Chen and Ye Lingtian; even several high-ranking Ye family members subtly surrounded the two.
At this moment, Ye Chen placed his hand on the Soul Nourishing Stele again.
Earlier, he was merely testing his control over the stele!
Now he’s familiar, he can naturally control the results at will!
The next second!
Two beams of light lit up, two colors appeared.
One yellow, one purple.
The bloodline density was third level, which is the bloodline rank of most Ye family disciples, ordinary, not outstanding, but sufficient to prove the identity of a Ye family disciple.
Potential rank was sixth level, the same class as Ye Lingtian; this potential, although enviable, was reasonable given the strength Ye Chen showed during the grand competition that left no room for doubt.
At this moment, Ye Sheng’s fierce face turned into shock!
He didn’t even know what to say!
Because the Soul Nourishing Stele couldn’t lie!
Ye Sheng’s mood fluctuated wildly today, seeing the opportunity to plunge Ye Lingtian into the abyss, he had a chance to secure the Chief position, but Ye Chen’s ’facts’ humiliated him.
Ye Sheng’s face twisted, glancing around, many avoided his eyes, some smirked at him with ridicule.
"Ugh!"
Growing angrier, Ye Sheng’s blood essence surged, and he suddenly spat fresh blood, his aura plummeting.
Clearly, this had turned into his inner demon, affecting his Martial Arts Foundation.
The martial path often depends on a single thought.
Today, Ye Sheng was like a clown among Ye’s younger generation, his prestige and face greatly diminished.
The arrival of Ye Chen and Ye Lingtian made the Ye family feel threatened. In just one day, two geniuses, Ye Tanzhu and Ye Sheng, fell into disgrace, their glory never to return.
Ye Ziming sighed and waved his hand, two people moved forward to carry Ye Sheng away.
The higher the rank of cultivators, the more they need a relatively strong disposition, otherwise, even if they’re powerful, it’s easy to be defeated by someone who exploits faults in their disposition.
Like Ye Sheng, whose unstable disposition leads to uncontrollable emotional fluctuation, even affected by rage, serious enough to harm their Dao heart.
Of the three seed geniuses from the three great veings, Ye Tanzhu was defeated by Ye Chen, Ye Sheng, although undefeated, was severely wounded by Ye Lingtian and Ye Chen without a fight, essentially akin to defeat.
As such, those qualified to compete for the Chief position were only Ye Lingtian and Ye Niang.
Yet regardless of bloodline potential and density, or inherent strength, Ye Lingtian thoroughly overpowers Ye Niang; the winner of the Chief position is beyond doubt.
As the current controller of the Linglong Pagoda, counted among the core power holders of the Ye Family, the Heavenly God Realm powerhouse Ye Ziming reiterated the decision on the spot.
"The Chief Disciple for this Ancestor Rite is Ye Lingtian!"
With those words, divine sound spread across the Linglong Pagoda, many Ye family disciples revealed peculiar expressions.
Not everyone knows Ye Lingtian, even if during earlier matches, Ye Lingtian’s extremely powerful skills were shown.
Many, even if aware, didn’t favor Ye Lingtian getting the Chief position because he isn’t from the three great factions of Divine Kingdom Ye Family but ascended from the low-level martial plane’s branch lineage, like a rootless water lily.
He is a Ye family disciple without ’background’ within the clan.
