The eighth floor's opponent was a Yaksha King whose skin was no different from a human's. In the Yaksha race, those with gray skin were ordinary Yakshas, those with light gray skin were mid-level Yakshas, and those with human-like skin were high-level Yakshas. At the same realm, the higher the bloodline grade, the stronger the battle strength. This Yaksha King was the guardian of the eighth floor of the God of War Pagoda, so he must be terrifyingly powerful.
Without any nonsense, the Yaksha King stabbed his spear at Ye Chen. The Yaksha race usually liked to use spears.
"So fast!"
This spear was so fast that it looked like a flash of light.
Slightly shifting his body, Ye Chen blocked the spear with his sword and punched at the Yaksha King's chest with his left hand.
The Yaksha King reacted extremely fast as he also formed a fist with his left hand and clashed with Ye Chen's fist.
Dong!
Ye Chen was pushed back a few hundred meters, leaving a trail of Qi behind him.
"Sixth level Life and Death realm, sixth level spirit body, peak sixth level will." Apart from martial will, the Yaksha King's attributes were much higher than Ye Chen's. If not for Ye Chen using the Fourth Drive and the protection of his sword intent, the Yaksha King's punch would have shattered Ye Chen's left arm and destroyed his body.
A terrifying aura erupted from Ye Chen's body, and three different colored flowers appeared above Ye Chen's head. As the three flowers appeared, Ye Chen's essence, Qi, and soul surged, and his hair fluttered in the wind.
"Myriad Flower Snatch!"
With a wave of his sword, thousands of sword shadows flew out and bombarded the Yaksha King's protective energy barrier, making clanking sounds. Although they couldn't break through the Yaksha King's defense, they forced him back. For a moment, he couldn't gather his energy to counterattack.
After the first attack was effective, Ye Chen followed up with a second attack. This time, it was the wood and fire profound sword move, Burning Spring Fire. The sparks turned into a prairie fire that engulfed the Yaksha King. The Yaksha King was the guardian of the eighth floor after all. Although he couldn't counterattack, he could still block. The spear in his hand slashed left and right, shattering one flaming sword light after another.
"Heavenly Lightning and Earthly Fire!"
At this moment, Ye Chen's sword aura changed. The prairie fire turned into heavenly lightning and earthly fire. Beams of lightning and fire sword light shot towards Yaksha King like a meteor shower. Yaksha King was slightly careless and was immediately pierced through by a beam of lightning and fire sword light. His left shoulder was charred black and smoke rose in spirals.
"Ha!"
Yaksha King roared and smashed all the lightning and fire swords with his spear.
"Die!"
By the time the fiery and thunder-like sword light dissipated, Ye Chen's silhouette had already disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already on the left side of the Yaksha King. He flicked the Dragon Spring Sword and thrust it forward. The bleak and desolate aura of autumn spread out, and the sword light was chilly.
Metal and Water Profound Sword Move — Autumn's Slaughter!
Just as the tip of the sword pierced through Yaksha King's skin, Yaksha King's left hand grabbed the sword at lightning speed, making it impossible for the Dragon Spring Sword to advance any further. Yaksha King's palm was unimaginably hard.
"Hmph!"
Ye Chen snorted coldly. He twisted the Dragon Spring Sword and pulled it out. Yaksha King's left hand's five fingers were immediately broken.
Without his left hand to block, Ye Chen used Autumn's Slaughter again and pierced through Yaksha King's heart. Just as the sword light was about to explode, Ye Chen's scalp suddenly went numb. His entire body flew backwards like a bird, dodging Yaksha King's Total Annihilation. On the ground to his left, a huge canyon was split open, stretching all the way to the horizon.
Just now, it looked like they were going to perish together, but in fact, Ye Chen knew that his sword attack couldn't kill Yaksha King, and Yaksha King's Total Annihilation could turn him into a bloody mist. Even his protective sword intent couldn't block it. The eighth level of the God of War Pagoda was more than five to six times harder than the seventh level. If not for his superb battle techniques, Ye Chen wouldn't even be able to threaten Yaksha King.
Although his techniques are not as good as mine, there are too few flaws to exploit.
That series of attacks just now was Ye Chen's test. He wanted to see if he could use techniques to kill Yaksha King. But it was obvious that the God of War Pagoda didn't have such flaws. If he wanted to defeat Yaksha King, he had to use absolute strength.
Since that's the case, let's see how strong you are!
Abandoning all techniques, Ye Chen slashed out directly. The violent sword aura transformed into a white dragon and swooped down.
Profound Truths of Water and Fire — White Dragon Destroys the World!
Yaksha King's face was expressionless. He raised his bronze spear high and suddenly slashed down. The huge spear shadow was like a heavenly pillar, smashing the white dragon into pieces.
Seeing that Yaksha King had destroyed the White Dragon Destroys the World so easily, Ye Chen smiled bitterly. He knew that even his most powerful Instant of Glory wouldn't be able to do anything to Yaksha King. At most, Yaksha King would be slightly injured. Furthermore, Yaksha King hadn't used any powerful moves yet.
As expected, Instant of Glory couldn't completely suppress Yaksha King. Yaksha King paid the price of losing his left arm. Yaksha King held the bronze spear in his right hand and thrust it forward. The tip of the spear condensed into a huge "sun". Ye Chen couldn't dodge at all and was burned into nothingness by the sun.
After reaching the eighth level of the God of War Pagoda, Ye Chen wasn't in a hurry to enter the Survival Pagoda.
Ye Chen was currently on the seventh level of the Survival Pagoda. If he reached the eighth level, he would become a high-level member. Ye Chen wasn't ready to enter the high-level Hunting Battlefield yet.
The high-level Hunting Battlefield was a paradise for Battle Thearchs and Sub-Thearchs. No matter how strong one's survivability was, it would be difficult to move an inch in there. One had to know that from the eighth level to the ninth level of the God of War Pagoda, the difficulty had increased by more than ten times. It wasn't as simple as a few times before. In a situation where there was a difference of ten times in strength, the Instant of Sword Domain and Instant of Glory were useless.
Of course, Ye Chen could also let a high-level team carry him, but Ye Chen didn't like to be a burden. The Hunting Battlefield wasn't a game. If one wasn't careful, there would be heavy casualties. This was a cruel battlefield, and there was no room for carelessness.
The reward for reaching the seventh level of the God of War Pagoda was three thousand divine coins. It was a good reward. If he could also pass the eighth level, the reward would be even higher. The reward for reaching the eighth level was ten thousand divine coins.
Ye Chen had only reached the eighth level of the God of War Pagoda and hadn't passed it yet.
In addition, if he could pass the eighth level of the God of War Pagoda, which was the ninth level, and become a high-level member, he would be eligible to use divine coins to exchange for a set. The most ordinary Heavenly King set would cost three hundred thousand divine coins, a mid-level Heavenly King set would cost one million divine coins, and a high-level Heavenly King set would cost five million divine coins. It could be said that the higher the level, the more divine coins would be needed. One could never have too many divine coins, only too few.
Ye Chen currently only had a little more than forty thousand divine coins, which was far from enough.
…
After leaving the Survival Pagoda, Ye Chen went to the hotel for a drink.
There were many people in the hotel. Looking around, Ye Chen found that all the Sub-Thearchs who had played in the Thunderbolt Stadium were here, such as the Galactic River King, White Tiger King, Thousand Arrow King, Purple Lightning Spear King, etc.
Finding a corner to sit down, Ye Chen bought ten bottles of Ice and Fire Nine Heavens to drink.
"Brother, you don't mind if I sit here, right?" A young man in yellow walked over.
Surprise flashed across Ye Chen's face. This young man in yellow had the strength of a Sub-Thearch. According to Huangfu Yu, he was called the Sky Splitting King, and his strength was not much weaker than the Purple Lightning Spear King. Nodding, Ye Chen said, "I don't mind, sit down!"
"Many thanks!"
The Sky Splitting King smiled and sat down.
"Ice and Fire Nine Heavens, this wine is not bad, but we high-level members rarely drink it. We drink Magma Wine and Ice Sea Wine. Magma Wine costs fifty divine coins per bottle, and Ice Sea Wine costs thirty divine coins per bottle. Come, try it, I'm sure you'll like it." The Sky Splitting King handed Ye Chen a bottle of Magma Wine and Ice Sea Wine.
"Magma Wine, Ice Sea Wine?" Ye Chen asked curiously, "Why can't we buy them?"
"Haha, in the Paradise of Gods, some things are only available to high-level members, and the treatment is different. Of course, junior and intermediate members can't afford it."
The Sky Splitting King explained.
The Magma Wine costs fifty divine coins per bottle, and the Ice Sea Wine costs thirty divine coins per bottle. Ordinary people indeed couldn't afford it, just like how Huang Hengfei couldn't bear to drink the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens.
Opening the cork, Ye Chen tilted his head back and drank a mouthful of the Magma Wine.
Boom!
As the wine entered his body, Ye Chen felt as if his entire body was erupting like a volcano. All his cells became active, constantly absorbing the wine's energy.
"Good wine, the effect of tempering the spirit body is several times better than the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens."
Ye Chen praised.
Putting down the Magma Wine, Ye Chen drank another mouthful of Ice Sea Wine. Ice Sea Wine was different from the Magma Wine, it made Ye Chen's soul extremely calm, so calm that even if the sky collapsed, he wouldn't care.
"The Magma Wine tempers the spirit body, while the Ice Sea Wine tempers the mind. Outside, only titled monarchs can drink these two wines frequently." The Sky Splitting King leisurely drank a mouthful of wine, his movements extremely elegant.
"Both are good wines, but it's a pity that they're only available to high-ranked members."
After drinking the Magma Wine and Ice Sea Wine, Ye Chen felt that the taste of the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens wasn't as refreshing as before, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"With your improvement speed, becoming a high-ranked member is just around the corner, and my Paradise of Gods will have another fierce general." The Sky Splitting King clearly knew Ye Chen, and laughed.
"You're too kind, I'm still far from it."
Not to mention others, just the Sky Splitting King alone was probably ten times stronger than him. Among the quasi-emperors, he was an elite like the Purple Lightning Spear King.
The Sky Splitting King sighed, "In a paradise, although the strength of a quasi-emperor is important, it's not enough to control the situation. Only the strength of a battle emperor can suppress everyone. You have great potential to become a battle emperor, and your low strength now doesn't mean anything. After all, you've only been in the Paradise of Gods for two years, and if you're given a few more decades, it's hard to say."
Everyone wanted to reach the strength of a battle emperor, but everyone had their own limits. Most people were stuck at the eighth level of the God of War Pagoda, and the elite could reach the ninth level of the God of War Pagoda, possessing the strength of a quasi-emperor. This ratio was usually ten to one, which meant that out of five hundred people, only fifty would have the strength of a quasi-emperor, and the ratio of battle emperors to quasi-emperors was also ten to one. Out of fifty quasi-emperors, about five could become battle emperors. Currently, the Paradise of Gods only had over three hundred people, over thirty quasi-emperors, and three battle emperors.
Ye Chen asked, "What's the situation in the other paradises? How many battle emperors and quasi-emperors are there? "
The Sky Splitting King shook his head, "I don't know the exact number, but the Demonic Paradise is publicly recognized as the strongest. They have close to ten battle emperors, and close to a hundred quasi-emperors. The other paradises are about the same, and the difference isn't too big. For example, the Evil God Paradise also has three battle emperors, the Barbarian God Paradise has two battle emperors, the Yaksha God Paradise has three battle emperors, and the Giant Miracle God Paradise has four battle emperors.
"The Demonic Paradise is so strong."
Ye Chen couldn't help but fall silent. The Demons were indeed the overlords of the universe, and their strength far surpassed the other races.
