Ye Chen sneered, "It is still better than you trying to kill all the Astral Reaching Realm warriors in the Windy Nation. If the news gets out, the Purple Sun Martial School would be ruined in your hands. Explode!"
As he spoke, Ye Chen slightly twisted his feet on the ground. An explosive-like spinning power went deep into the ground, exploding under the Fire Man's feet. It was indeed the secret martial art, Earth Explosion Sky Shock.
Boom!
Rocks flew everywhere as the Fire Man tried to dodge out of the way.
"Next year, today will be your death anniversary." Ye Chen's voice seemed to have some kind of magical power as it went into the Fire Man's ears. Then, a bright sword light exploded. Within the sword light, a huge green lotus could be vaguely seen.
The Fire Man pushed his zhen yuan and yelled crazily, "Brother Dead Wood, save me!"
Crack!
Just as he finished speaking, his protective zhen yuan had been sliced open by that huge sword light. A bloody line appeared from his forehead to his chin. His huge body had been cut in half all of a sudden.
After killing the Fire Man, Ye Chen looked at the last person.
"Run!"
This person knew that Ye Chen was not a match for him, so he did not think about anything else.
"Do you think you can run away?"
Using his flying art, Ye Chen chased after him.
The two were both Astral Reaching Realm warriors, so they could run at an amazing speed. Hundreds of meters only took them a second to cover. Plus, since their zhen yuan was way too powerful, it had sucked out all the air around them, making them stand in a vacuum. Therefore, the sound they made was very soft, unlike Clasping Yuan Realm warriors, who would make a sonic boom when they ran at full speed.
"Die!"
Like a maggot on a bone, Ye Chen soon shortened the distance between them. He focused his Kill Heart sword attack, which looked like a shooting star in the sky, flashing once before disappearing.
Swoosh!
The man's running posture did not change, but his zhen yuan had been weakened drastically. A huge head shot up into the sky with blood pouring out of it, looking very unwilling.
"Right now, I finally have the power to do whatever I want in the South Rudra Region. Without Sea of Souls Realm warriors, it would not be easy for anyone to kill me."
After killing four Mid Astral Reaching Realm warriors in a row, Ye Chen felt a sense of pride. Before, although he was extremely talented and had a great comprehensive ability, he always felt like he was in a precarious situation. Therefore, he had to think twice before doing anything, and be extremely cautious.
Right now, Mid Astral Reaching Realm warriors were nothing in his eyes. Even if he were to encounter a Late Astral Reaching Realm warrior, he would still have the power to fight back.
Of course, Ye Chen also knew that the reason why he was able to kill Mid Astral Reaching Realm warriors was not only because of his powerful eighty percent sword intent, but also because of all the top level martial arts he had trained. He would not be at a disadvantage in terms of martial arts, and his only weakness would be his cultivation.
"After this, I have to go to the Natural Moat Gorge to learn the Battle King's sword intent and try to reach the next level. If I can train my sword intent to ninety percent or even complete, then I would be able to compete with Late Astral Reaching Realm warriors. Then, I will try to increase my cultivation. Once I reach the peak level of Early Astral Reaching Realm, my battling power would reach a very high level. With Mid Astral Reaching Realm, I would basically be able to do whatever I want in the whole South Rudra Region. I would also not have to be afraid of some peak level Late Astral Reaching Realm warriors who had trained powerful martial arts. Ye Chen knew very well that some of the warriors who were stuck at the peak level of Late Astral Reaching Realm and could not make it to the Sea of Souls Realm would be extremely horrifying. With his current power, he would not be able to fight against them. The good thing was that these people usually did not go out, and there were not many of them, so the chance of running into them was almost negligible.
"I will take it one step at a time. The Natural Moat Gorge will be my first destination."
Taking a deep breath, Ye Chen's mind seemed to have cleared up a lot, and his sword intent was even more powerful.
"Ye Chen, you and I are both Astral Reaching Realm warriors from the Windy Nation. Why are you not coming to help us? Without us, you would still die in the hands of the Ghost Corpse Man." Pang Nie's voice was heard.
Ye Chen looked over. Pang Nie and Zhuang Qinghe's opponents were two Gold Shell Corpses and a man in a long robe. These two Gold Shell Corpses were even more powerful than what the Fire Man had described. One of them had a dark gold color on its dark skin, which meant that it was a rank 8 zombie warrior. Its defense was extremely horrifying, and it could almost ignore Pang Nie's attacks. The other Gold Shell Corpse was also at the peak level of rank 7 zombie warrior. Its light gold color seemed to be developing towards the dark gold color. It should have been a rather powerful Mid Astral Reaching Realm warrior when it was alive.
These two Gold Shell Corpses had completely suppressed Pang Nie and Zhuang Qinghe. Added with the man in a long robe who did not have a high cultivation, the two were in a dangerous situation.
"Huh, I will start with you two first."
Before Ye Chen could reply, a ghost-like figure appeared near Pang Nie and Zhuang Qinghe. It was indeed the Ghost Corpse Man. His whole body was covered with a dark grey protective zhen yuan, and the evil face mask was releasing a horrifying qi. It was only a flash, and he was about to kill the two.
"How dare you!"
Pang Nie was shocked. He pushed his zhen yuan to its limit, and a huge fire wave shot out of his body. It was extremely powerful. Zhuang Qinghe, who was on the side, knew very well that he would not be able to handle a full power attack from the Ghost Corpse Man, and that he would not be able to survive today. He performed his Mountain and River Great Art, and his zhen yuan attacked towards the Ghost Corpse Man like a huge wave.
The Ghost Corpse Man chuckled as he twisted his right hand. With a shoo sound, his right hand went through Pang Nie's fist power and sliced through his left arm. At the same time, he held a golden skull in his left hand and threw it towards Zhuang Qinghe.
The three passed by each other.
The Ghost Corpse Man was holding an arm in his hand.
On the other hand, Pang Nie and Zhuang Qinghe had lost their left arm and life respectively. Facing a full power attack from the Ghost Corpse Man, one was wounded and the other was dead.
Losing interest in killing Pang Nie, the Ghost Corpse Man turned his attention to Lin Shuihan, who had just killed the man in long robes.
Boom!
On his way, the Ghost Corpse Man suddenly lifted up his golden skull, clashing with the incoming sword qi.
"Kid, you are looking for death!"
Originally, the Ghost Corpse Man was planning to kill Lin Shuihan first. However, he did not expect that Ye Chen would stop him and attack him with a sharp sword qi.
After killing a huge group of bronze shell corpses, Ye Chen stood there quietly. "This is the end."
He did not care about the two Great Masters from the Emerald Martial Palace, but the Great Master from the North Snow Martial Academy could save his life. However, this Ghost Corpse Man was indeed powerful. He could shatter Ye Chen's sword qi in a hurry, which meant that he was way more powerful than the Fire Man.
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Three human figures appeared one after another. They were Xiao Heng and his wife, and the Lake Man.
All three of them had been wounded quite badly. Xiao Heng and his wife were not sure if it was just an illusion, but the Ghost Corpse Man had not used all of his power yet. Of course, since they dared to come to the Ghost Corpse Man's base, they all had their ace cards prepared. Unless it was a critical moment, they would not use them easily.
Xiao Heng and his wife could not just sit and watch Pang Nie get killed, so they hurried to help him fight against the two gold shell corpses and the man in long robes. As for the Lake Man, he looked a bit gloomy. He could not see the Fire Man and the rest of the bronze shell corpses, so he did not know what had happened.
"Pang Nie, where are the others?" Xiao Heng asked.
Pang Nie spat out a mouthful of blood, "That Fire Man and the Ghost Corpse Man were in cahoots. There were two other powerful warriors, but they were both dead, in …" Pang Nie glanced at Ye Chen with hatred. Although the Ghost Corpse Man's attacking speed was extremely fast, he did not think that Ye Chen would save him at all.
Xiao Heng and his wife were shocked. This Ye Chen was unexpectedly powerful. Eh? He had reached the Astral Reaching Realm? Was it an accident, or …
The Ghost Corpse Man said to the Lake Man, "Kill them, kill them all. Everything is out of our control now." He was talking about the couple. According to the plan, they did not need to be killed, because killing them would cause a lot of trouble. But now, it seemed like they had to kill them. Once the Fire Man and the other three had died, the plan had gone into an unknown direction, and the cause of all of this was Ye Chen.
The Lake Man had a creepy look on his face. He looked at Long Yue with a hint of evil in his eyes. Finally, he did not have to hold it in anymore. He could just run away from the Windy Nation.
The battle had started again, but this time, there was a slight change. The Lake Man, who had been helping the couple, had now become the Ghost Corpse Man's helper. He fought with the two gold shell corpses and the man in long robes. Of course, there was also the horrifying amount of bronze shell corpses.
Pulling back his attention, the Ghost Corpse Man knew that Ye Chen was the key. Only by killing him would he be able to kill everyone from the Windy Nation. Right now, all he needed to do was to maintain the situation.
"You are the one who killed the Fire Man and the rest."
Ye Chen did not answer but asked, "You must be the leader of the Wild Five – the Dead Wood Man, right? I wonder if your original name was the Dead Wood Man or the Ghost Corpse Man. "
Before the Fire Man died, he had called him brother Dead Wood. Therefore, Ye Chen knew that the Ghost Corpse Man was the Dead Wood Man, and the Wild Five were actually all in the Windy Nation. The only question was whether the Fire Man was working with the Ghost Corpse Man, or if he had already become part of the Nine Ghost Cult.
But none of this mattered anymore. The Fire Man was already dead, and he no longer existed in this world.
"Both of them are my names. Too bad, all the enemies who know my name have to die. You are no exception. Die!"
The gold skull was transferred to his right hand as the Ghost Corpse Man rushed towards Ye Chen at an extreme speed.
"Sky Shattering Clouds!"
Facing the infamous Ghost Corpse Man, Ye Chen did not back out at all. Instead, he lifted up his sword and faced him head on.
Boom!
The gold skull clashed with the Star Scar Sword. The dark underground world shook a little bit, and a lot of rocks fell down from above.
Who was more powerful and who was weaker, it would be easy to tell.
The Ghost Corpse Man backed out three steps.
Ye Chen backed out ten steps.
The gap between their cultivation was too huge. Even though Ye Chen had trained the top rank Earth Realm martial art, the Green Lotus Sword Spell, and had eighty percent sword intent, it was still not enough to make up for the gap.
However, being able to handle a full attack from the Ghost Corpse Man was already very impressive, since the Ghost Corpse Man was one of the one hundred and eight ghost warriors of the Nine Ghost Cult. Even if he was not famous for his battling power, he should not be underestimated. Normal Late Astral Reaching Realm warriors might not even be able to run away from him.
"Hehe, I am afraid that you will die here today." The Ghost Corpse Man had made up his mind, as he sneered.
Ye Chen's expression did not change. There was a bloody light burning inside his body as he said, "Not necessarily."
"Oh yeah? Then I will see how you are going to fight against me. "
The grey-black Ghost Corpse Man's zhen yuan shot up into the sky. The Ghost Corpse Man held the gold skull in his right hand, looking like a demon stepping on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"I said not necessarily. You were able to rule the Windy Nation before, but today, it is not your world anymore."
Crack!
The ground cracked open as a bloody red qi flow exploded from Ye Chen's body. It combined with his burning zhen yuan, turning into a greenish red color all of a sudden. That intense aura spread out in all directions, blowing away all the Bronze Shell Corpses that were surrounding him.
