Huangfu Yu had guessed correctly. More than nine months ago, Ye Chen already had the strength of a Quasi-emperor. At that time, he had already upgraded the White Dragon Exterminating World, Heavenly Lightning Hellfire, Raging Flames of Spring, Killing Autumn, and Life Snatching Ten Thousand to the level of extreme martial arts of the second rank.
The so-called extreme martial arts of the second rank were not simply determined by power. It also depended on the degree of integration of the profoundness and the degree of martial arts exertion. If the two profoundness were perfectly integrated, the martial arts they carried could fully exert the power of the integrated profoundness, then it meant that your second rank martial arts had been upgraded to the limit. Do not underestimate the extreme martial arts of the second rank. It was the key to creating a third rank martial art. If one could not even reach the level of the extreme martial arts of the second rank, then it would never be possible to create a third rank martial art. Even if it was created, it would be incomplete and unable to be perfected.
Among the five extreme martial arts of the second rank, the White Dragon Exterminating World was the strongest. It was already equivalent to an ordinary third rank martial art. It was terrifyingly powerful and had the power to destroy the world in a small area. Next, the Heavenly Lightning Hellfire, Raging Flames of Spring, Killing Autumn, and Life Snatching Ten Thousand were equally powerful. The Heavenly Lightning Hellfire was superior in its attacking power. The Raging Flames of Spring could burn the enemy to ashes. The Life Snatching Ten Thousand could penetrate the enemy's defense.
Originally, with the strength of a Quasi-emperor, one had to enter the high-level hunting battlefield. However, Ye Chen was not in a hurry to become a high-level member. He knew that with his strength at that time, if he entered the high-level hunting battlefield, he would only be a middle-level Quasi-emperor. If he encountered a strong enemy, he would not be able to compete, so he did not challenge the God of War Pagoda and the Survival Pagoda.
However, the rules of the intermediate hunting battlefield sensed that he had the strength of a Quasi-emperor. After three warnings, he was not allowed to enter the intermediate hunting battlefield, or the rules would kill him.
This was the third time.
"Ye Chen, do you have the strength of a Quasi-emperor?"
Hou Lei and the others also rushed over. Xu Xiao asked curiously.
Ye Chen knew that he could not hide it, and there was no need to hide it. He nodded and said, "Yes, nine months ago, I already had the strength of a Quasi-emperor. The rules of the hunting battlefield also warned me that this would be my last hunt in the intermediate hunting battlefield. Next time, I will go to the high-level hunting battlefield."
"So it's true."
Xu Xiao's jaw dropped.
In fact, they had long suspected that Ye Chen had the strength of a Quasi-emperor, because Ye Chen was much stronger than Huangfu Yu. In the entire middle-grade hunting battlefield, no one was a match for Ye Chen.
"Congratulations." Huang Fu Yu let out a sigh and immediately smiled.
Ye Chen continued, "I've already talked to Jiu. He promised to join the Frost Battle Team after I leave. With his strength, he shouldn't be a burden to you."
Ah Jiu's improvement was rather astonishing. If not for Ye Chen, he would be the member of the Paradise of Gods who improved the fastest. A few months ago, he had already reached the seventh level of the God of War Pagoda. According to him, his fist, palm, finger, and leg techniques had all improved greatly. His spear techniques had also caught up.
Leng Feifan had joined the Flying Spirit Battle Team a long time ago, and Ah Jiu was about to join the Frost Battle Team. These two teams were the teams that Ye Chen had been in before.
"Ah Jiu?"
Hou Lei's eyes lit up. He was indeed reluctant to let Ye Chen leave. After all, with Ye Chen, the Frost Battle Team would be feared. However, there was no other way. If Ye Chen didn't leave, he would be killed by the rules. He hadn't expected Ye Chen to be able to persuade Ah Jiu to join the Frost Battle Team. One had to know that Ah Jiu was also very famous in the Paradise of Gods and had a chance of becoming a Battle Emperor in the future.
...
"He's too strong. This kind of strength has already surpassed the eighth level of the God of War Pagoda. He's definitely a Quasi-emperor. Damn it. He clearly has the strength of a Quasi-emperor, but he still stays in the middle-grade hunting battlefield."
The two Yaksha Kings, who had just escaped, stopped in their tracks. They were furious.
"Hmph, he can only be arrogant in the middle-grade hunting battlefield. When he reaches the high-grade hunting battlefield, he still has to act like a coward. I hope he will be killed in his first hunt."
"That's very likely. A newly born Quasi-emperor is most likely to die in the first few hunts."
"Let's not talk about this. We are in danger now. We have to be vigilant and endure these few days."
...
After walking out of the hunting pagoda, Ye Chen went straight to the God of War Pagoda.
At the eighth level of the God of War Pagoda...
Boom!
With a Heavenly Lightning Earthen Fire, Ye Chen killed the Yaksha King, whose skin was like a human's.
In the next moment, Ye Chen arrived at the ninth level of the God of War Pagoda.
The ninth level's opponent was the black-robed Evil King of the Evil Spirit Race.
As the guardian of the ninth level, the black-robed Evil King's strength was undoubtedly very strong. He was stronger than all the other Quasi-emperors. Defeating him would allow one to become a Battle Emperor. His strength was between a titled Monarch and a peak sixth Firmament King.
Swish, swish, swish …
The black-robed Evil King seemed to have no physical body. He could instantly turn into black smoke and instantly appear in front of Ye Chen. His palm was like an eagle's claw, and ink-like black Qi coiled around it. Through the Protective Zhen Yuan, Ye Chen could feel a bone-chilling cold intent pass over, numbing his nerves.
Not daring to be careless, Ye Chen used the Instant Sword Domain with all his strength, sharply reducing his opponent's attack speed. Then, he slashed at that cold palm.
Clang!
Sparks flew, and Ye Chen retreated several steps while the black-robed Evil King's body swayed.
"Raging Fire Incinerating Spring!"
The huge sword Qi transformed into a powerful wave of fire and rushed toward the black-robed Evil King.
The black-robed Evil King was expressionless as he clasped his hands together and separated them. The powerful wave of fire was separated from the middle, unable to injure him in the slightest. Meanwhile, his right leg was like a venomous snake as it kicked out with a black shadow.
A huge pit appeared on the ground, and Ye Chen was sent flying, spurting out a mouthful of cold blood.
"What a frightening cold Qi."
If not for the Protective Sword Intent, this kick alone would have turned Ye Chen into an ice sculpture.
In Ye Chen's eyes, the black-robed Evil King's figure flickered incessantly. Each time it flickered, it would expand several times. In a few moments, the black-robed Evil King filled Ye Chen's vision as a black fist punched over, covering the sky.
Puff!
Ye Chen was hit by the fist, turning into a black shadow and collapsing. This was a shadow. In the past three years, Ye Chen had not only created a second transition extreme martial art, but he had also created a second transition martial art — Shadow Divine Steps.
The Shadow Divine Steps contained the profound of Yin and the profound of Shadow. He had only started to comprehend the profound of Yin in the past three years, and he had perfected it. Combined with the profound of Shadow, he could turn himself into a shadow that was between an illusory and a real one. Not only would he be able to move at lightning speed, but he could also split himself and take a fatal blow for himself.
Unknowingly, Ye Chen had appeared behind the black-robed Evil King on the right. He waved his sword, and the powerful sword Qi condensed into a World Destroying White Dragon, rushing toward the black-robed Evil King at a high speed.
The black-robed Evil King was stronger than Ye Chen had imagined. He stretched out his right hand, and a black whirlpool appeared in his palm as he pressed his palm against the white dragon's head.
Rumble!
The white dragon exploded, and the black-robed Evil King was sent flying hundreds of meters away, his clothes fluttering in the wind.
"I didn't expect him to be this strong. He has no flaws at all."
Using the Three Flowers, Ye Chen's battle power increased by several folds. He rushed forward without any hesitation. Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire, Burning Spring Fire, Autumn Kill, Ten Thousand Flowers, White Dragon Destroying World, and Moment of Glory, he had performed each of them once. However, even if his battle power had doubled, he still could not do anything to the black-robed Evil King. The black whirlpool on his opponent's palm could neutralize all attacks, including the White Dragon Destroying World. The only thing that could threaten him was Moment of Glory, but it was always wrong. It was as if the black-robed Evil King could distort the trajectory of space and deflect his attack.
"Limitless Evil Hand!"
Finally, the black-robed Evil King spoke for the first time.
His palm turned into a hand that could cover the sky. As he pressed his palm down, the sky lost its color, the ground collapsed, and the gravity was reversed. Ye Chen felt as if he had become an ordinary person, and he could not free himself from the weightless environment.
"Sun Essence Extreme Transformation!"
In this life-or-death situation, Ye Chen didn't have the time to think too much. He performed a third transition martial art that he normally could not perform – Sun Essence Extreme Transformation.
A dazzling light burst out from the Dragon Spring Sword, suddenly releasing a strong stream of sword Qi. Puff! A huge crack appeared on the gigantic palm that had covered the entire sky. Through the crack, the clear sky poured down, bringing a small patch of light to the world.
Although this sword move was extremely crude and not as powerful as a second transition martial art, the power it released was a few times more powerful than a second transition martial art. It was like a beam of sunlight at dawn, tearing apart the darkness.
The power of the sky-covering hand, which had almost been split into two, had been greatly reduced. However, it didn't lose all of its power. The palm heavily pressed on the ground. With a puff, the ground on both sides of Ye Chen was turned into nothingness. The place where Ye Chen had been standing suddenly became a high ground, and an immeasurably long 'pillar' stood high up in the abyss, seeming to be isolated from the world.
Swish!
Ye Chen's feet suddenly stepped on the 'pillar', and his whole body jumped up, merging with the sun in the sky. In the next second, he performed his Sun Essence Extreme Transformation again. The snow-white sword body was like a black hole, continuously absorbing the light in the world to strengthen itself. Then, he threw out a sword attack toward the black-robed evil king.
The scorching sun rose from the east, and the powerful light condensed into a beam, piercing through the black-robed Evil King's body. His body was like a snowman under the scorching sun, melting rapidly, and was about to disappear.
"Limitless Three Tremors!"
The black-robed Evil King raised his remaining left hand and slapped towards Ye Chen.
Bang, bang, bang!
Ye Chen's body shook and turned into nothingness. He didn't even have time to perform his Immortal Body.
At the entrance of the God of War Pagoda, Ye Chen walked out.
"Limitless Three Tremors. Each tremor contains three layers of force. It's really terrifying." Ye Chen was amazed. He knew that if he couldn't defend or dodge the black-robed Evil King's Limitless Three Tremors, he wouldn't be able to pass the ninth level of the God of War Pagoda unless his attack power was strong enough to kill the black-robed Evil King instantly.
Although he had failed, he had gained a lot this time. He could even use Sun Essence Extreme Transformation, which he couldn't use previously.
The Sun Essence Extreme Transformation contained the Profound Truths of Fire, Profound Truths of Light, and Profound Truths of Yang. The Profound Truths of Light and Profound Truths of Yang had been comprehended and perfected in the past three years. Ye Chen's soul could bear many perfected Profound Truths, so he didn't have to worry about not having enough Profound Truths. In the Paradise of Gods, as long as one had enough Shenbi, one could comprehend Profound Truths to perfection in the Profound Truths Pagoda. Of course, others were very careful when choosing Profound Truths, as their soul's capacity was limited.
