Chapter 199: Chapter 172: Awe-Inspiring Four Directions
Not a single person on the field doubted that if any of the Half-Step Rotating Pill warriors dared to intervene, this youth would truly strike to kill.
It was this very feeling that made the other Half-Step Rotating Pill experts retreat in a rage, no longer daring to lay a hand on the youth!
The five female disciples of the Moon Concealing Sect at the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm looked at Ye Chen with a mysterious light condensing in their beautiful eyes.
"I\'m going to kill you!"
At that moment, Wang Luocheng who had been sent flying with a palm strike from Ye Chen, roared as he leaped up from the ground, his massive True Qi surging through his entire body as his aura began to climb wildly.
As his aura ascended, the very void around Wang Luocheng was swept up in a powerful True Qi storm, the immense pressure causing the giant trees on the nearby islands to rustle loudly.
Accustomed only to humiliating others, now in full view of an audience, being sent flying with a palm strike by a youth at the initial stage of the Spirit Sea Realm was a humiliation that Wang Luocheng, as a Half-Step Rotating Pill warrior, could not bear!
He had completely unleashed his True Qi, determined to kill Ye Chen fiercely to wash away the disgrace of that single palm strike!
In the midst of the surging True Qi, Wang Luocheng ferociously rushed toward Ye Chen!
The oppressive might of a Half-Step Rotating Pill\'s True Qi was terrifying indeed, as many disciples at the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm witnessed Wang Luocheng\'s state, they retreated again and again, leaving the battlefield to watch from a distance. Even the other Half-Step Rotating Pill warriors opted to avoid the conflict.
Yet amidst the oppressive True Qi and swirling wind, Ye Chen didn\'t retreat at all, the gusts billowing his clothes and sweeping his black hair back, revealing his calm visage.
Facing the furiously charging Wang Luocheng, Ye Chen\'s hands condensed a void grip, and instantly, boundless Gang Yuan True Qi whirled around him, the dazzling silver Gang Yuan True Qi exploding upwards for over a hundred meters, its oppressive might not the slightest bit weaker than that of the Half-Step Rotating Pill Wang Luocheng!
With boundless Gang Yuan True Qi around him, Ye Chen shot forward ferociously to meet Wang Luocheng\'s assault.
Ye Chen, only at the initial stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, had actually chosen to meet the Half-Step Rotating Pill Wang Luocheng head-on!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two terrifying forces collided in the void like two destructive tornadoes, and after a mere instant, they slammed into each other violently.
This collision compressed the air until it burst, the terrible True Qi sweeping in all directions, tearing open dreadful fissures in the earth and snapping distant giant trees with a crash.
The spectators from afar, including the weakest five mid-stage Spirit Sea disciples, were swept up by the mere residual force of the collision, sent flying helplessly through the air!
Such a formidable collision of True Qi!
All eyes turned to Ye Chen and Wang Luocheng, who were directly clashing, to see who would emerge superior in the raw contest of True Qi power.
To their shock, all onlookers gaped in astonishment.
Ye Chen, merely at the initial stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, had once again sent the Half-Step Rotating Pill Wang Luocheng flying dozens of meters, crashing harshly into the earth and creating a tremendous crater several dozens of feet across!
In contrast, Ye Chen had only retreated slightly after the impact, still suspended in the void!
In this direct clash of power, Ye Chen, at the initial stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, had clearly gained the upper hand!
"Powerful!"
"Simply too powerful!"
"This youth, no wonder he dares to confront a Half-Step Rotating Pill, his power is so immense he can even suppress a Half-Step Rotating Pill!"
Many of the late-stage Spirit Sea powerhouses could hardly believe their eyes and exclaimed in disbelief.
The other Half-Step Rotating Pill experts, who had earlier entertained thoughts of attacking Ye Chen, now saw Wang Luocheng smashed into the ground once more, and their hearts pounded with alarm.
They recalled Ye Chen\'s earlier warning, that whoever dared to intervene would die, which had impressed them with his domineering presence. But now, they truly felt Ye Chen\'s strength!
This boy could actually have the potential to kill them!
Ye Chen\'s direct confrontation had shocked all spectators, giving everyone a testament to his strength!
When Ye Chen was at the twelfth layer of True Qi, he could battle the Half-Step Rotating Pill Xue Jia. The few Half-Step Rotating Pills on the Fourth Sea Island all had auras similar to Xue Jia\'s.
And when Ye Chen stepped into the Spirit Sea Realm, he absorbed the immense and unparalleled Spirit Cloud of True Qi that spanned 72 miles around, his strength continuously soared. Faced with Wang Luocheng\'s provocation, he was of course unafraid!
Now, he possessed absolute suppressive power over these few Half-Step Rotating Pills!
If these few Half-Step Rotating Pills dared to strike at him, he dared to eradicate them!
"How is this possible?!"
Wang Luocheng, who was once again blasted onto the ground, even smashing a huge pit into it, raised his head to look at Ye Chen in the void, with a face full of disbelief.
When Ye Chen\'s first palm strike sent him flying, he thought he had been careless, but this time, when he was the one who took the initiative to attack, yet again he was directly suppressed by Ye Chen, he truly felt that the young man before him was undoubtedly stronger than him in terms of True Qi power.
To think that a youngster in the early stages of the Spirit Sea Realm could have True Qi even more terrifying than his own was completely unbelievable to Wang Luocheng!
Grinding his teeth, Wang Luocheng burst forth from the deep pit once more.
"I don\'t believe it, your True Qi is powerful, but are your martial skills comparable to mine at the Half-Step Rotating Pill?!"
"Wind-Slicing Thirty-Six Sabers, slay for me!"
As Wang Luocheng\'s words fell, a huge precious saber suddenly appeared in his hands. Wang Luocheng, holding the saber, leapt into the air, and with a slash through the void, "swish swish swish," thirty-six huge Saber Qi blades, each over tens of meters long, descended from the sky, chopping down towards Ye Chen in the void.
Wang Luocheng, who fell short in the clash of True Qi, exerted his martial skill\'s might!
Ye Chen, looking at the sky filled with slashing saber lights, was neither sorrowful nor joyful. Just as the thirty-six immense Saber Qi blades enveloped the entire sky and were about to explosively chop down above Ye Chen\'s head, Ye Chen suddenly vanished from the void.
The next moment, Ye Chen abruptly appeared behind Wang Luocheng.
This was the "Void Instantaneous Change" Divine Skill!
With Void Instantaneous Change, within the twenty miles embraced by his spiritual sense, Ye Chen could move instantaneously at will. Half-Step Rotating Pill Wang Luocheng, who had not stepped into the Rotating Pill Realm, was unable to sense the void through the five great Heavenly Laws and, of course, could not detect Ye Chen\'s instantaneous movement, nor could he strike Ye Chen.
As his thirty-six tremendous Saber Qi slashes thunderously chopped onto the ground, causing it to explode and collapse, he suddenly felt a deadly killing intent.
This deadly killing intent was actually coming from behind him.
While sensing this deadly killing intent, Wang Luocheng also heard the gasps of all the onlookers from afar. Then, a trembling sensation spread throughout his entire body, as if his soul was trembling.
This was the trembling sensation of death; his soul sensed the threat of death!
Just as Wang Luocheng turned his head, he saw a sword light of utmost brilliance stabbing toward him from behind.
Boom!
In that moment between life and death, Wang Luocheng mobilized all his True Qi, twisting his body to the extreme and turning halfway.
Whoosh!
The radiant sword light, dragging a streak of blood, grazed Wang Luocheng\'s body, tearing away a large chunk of flesh and splashing droplets of blood!
Ye Chen\'s Void Instantaneous Change was exceptionally fast, and even though Wang Luocheng dodged in a moment of life and death, he was still unable to completely avoid it and was injured.
Wang Luocheng, his flesh sliced and spirit shocked, had previously vowed to kill Ye Chen and those few mid-Spirit Sea Realm martial artists. Now, he experienced a sense of death, feeling as if he could be slain at any moment by the "small fry" he had not taken seriously before.
He had intended to get rid of a few people to seize more treasures, but now, was he to be the first to be removed?
As this thought flashed through Wang Luocheng\'s mind, he suddenly realized that Ye Chen facing him had disappeared again. The next moment, a shocking sword beam burst toward his Qi Sea Acupoint.
This time, Wang Luocheng, already shocked and in great pain, was unable to dodge the sword beam that was even faster than the previous one. With a \'pffft\', the sword beam instantly penetrated his Qi Sea Acupoint, tearing through his Spirit Sea.
Wang Luocheng\'s Spirit Sea shattered, and the immense Spiritual Liquid True Qi cultivated within his body instantly dissipated into the void as rolling True Qi!
Wang Luocheng, who had incessantly demanded that martial artists of lower realms cripple their own Spirit Seas, ended up with his Spirit Sea destroyed first!
As his Spirit Sea burst apart, Wang Luocheng became utterly stupefied. Standing there dazed, Ye Chen, who had performed Void Instantaneous Change, reappeared.
Ye Chen reappeared above the ground.
But this time he materialized, the battle between the two had truly ended in defeat for one and victory for the other!
