With a flicker of his body, Ye Chen appeared on the first floor from the third floor.
"Arrogant brat, accept your death!" The moment Ye Chen landed, Rock Elder pulled out his thunder blade. Lightning filled the air, and electric snakes danced chaotically. A berserk arc-shaped blade Qi swept towards Ye Chen like a flood dragon out of the sea, sweeping everything in its path.
Whoosh!
Ye Chen was already prepared. His body erupted with cyan flames. He took a step forward, and the Star Scar Sword was unsheathed. The sword light imprinted with the Mountain Cleaving Green Lotus carried a frightening sword intent as it rushed out with an even more berserk power. At this moment, even the air in the fortress was twisted.
Kacha!
Rock Elder was merely a slightly more powerful late Astral Reaching expert. He couldn't even compare to Corpse Man. Although Ye Chen hadn't used the Minor Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art and had merely ignited his Zhen Yuan, it was enough. As matters stood, even Daoist Jin Huang wasn't worthy of him going all out. The flood dragon blade Qi slashed out by Rock Elder seemed to have its head chopped off, dispersing upon contact. The remaining sword Qi fiercely attacked his protective Zhen Yuan.
Rock Elder turned pale with fright. His left hand blocked the sword Qi. With a swishing sound, his palm was drenched in blood. The Zhen Yuan within his body was impacted by the sword Qi, flowing in reverse. He couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body was shot backward.
One move, and Rock Elder was heavily injured.
"How is this possible? How could he have become so powerful? " Daoist Jin Huang instantly appeared behind Rock Elder, wanting to catch him. However, in the next moment, his face turned red and white. The flying Rock Elder was no different from a speeding mountain. No matter how much Daoist Jin Huang mustered his Zhen Yuan, he couldn't forcibly catch him. He could only drift along with the flow, his feet rubbing against the metal floor as he slid backward.
"Daoist Jin Huang, from the day you came to the Sky Cloud Sect, you were destined to die under my sword. Today, between you and me, only one can leave the fortress. Die!"
As soon as the word 'die' came out, a sword light flickered in front of Ye Chen. Countless sword Qi pervaded the air, radiating toward Rock Elder and Daoist Jin Huang.
"Sixth Elder, save me!"
Looking at the densely packed sword Qi, the Rock Elder lost all of his courage. He said to Daoist Jin Huang in terror. Right now, only Daoist Jin Huang could temporarily save his life.
"Old Yan, I will avenge you."
An ice-cold expression flashed across Daoist Jin Huang's face as he firmly grabbed onto the Rock Elder's constantly struggling body. With so much sword Qi, even if he was wearing a mid-grade armor, he still didn't dare to act blindly without thinking. He could only let the Rock Elder block in front of him and eliminate this calamity for him.
Pu pu pu pu …
Ding ding ding ding …
The sound of sword Qi piercing through flesh rang out continuously. Accompanying it was the sound of metal colliding. That was the sound of sword Qi cutting through the mid-grade armor on the Rock Elder's body.
Other than his torso, Rock Elder's limbs and head were chopped into meat paste by the sword energy. Blood mist exploded and dyed the ground red.
Bang!
Throwing aside the Rock Elder, Daoist Jin Huang resentfully said, "Ye Chen, you dared to kill my Floating Mountain Sect's inner sect elder. Do you know that you have committed a capital crime? Nobody can save you. My Floating Mountain Sect's Sea of Soul realm experts can flatten Sky Cloud Sect with a single palm strike."
"Daoist Jin Huang, no matter how eloquent you are, you won't be able to escape death today. If Floating Mountain Sect dares to act blindly without thinking, I will destroy them in the future."
How could Ye Chen let Daoist Jin Huang go? His Star Scar Sword slashed out a sword light.
Clang!
Sparks flew everywhere, and cracks appeared in the vacuum.
Unknowingly, a thick metal shield had appeared in Daoist Jin Huang's hand. Fine electric currents flickered on the shield, containing a powerful magnetic force. The sword light only left a shallow mark on its surface. Of course, the metal shield was fine, but it didn't mean that Daoist Jin Huang was fine. Blood flowed out of his seven apertures, clearly bearing a part of the impact. At this moment, face was no longer important. He hastily shouted, "Everyone, whoever helps me kill Ye Chen will be heavily rewarded by the Floating Mountain Sect. Outer sect elder, inner sect elder, pellets, manuals … everything can be promised to you. If I, Daoist Jin Huang, deceive you, I will not have a good death."
"What? Daoist Jin Huang wants us to kill Ye Chen?"
"Should we do it or not? Being an elder of Floating Mountain Sect means an unimaginable amount of resources. At the very least, we can obtain some precious pellets or manuals."
"F * ck, let's do it! With so many of us attacking together, no matter how strong Ye Chen is, he will still die. It's like a meat pie falling from the sky."
Hearing these words, many people were tempted.
On the second floor of the Demon Defiance Fortress, dozens of Zhen Yuan streams bombarded Ye Chen. Caught off guard, Ye Chen dodged seven or eight Zhen Yuan streams, but the remaining ones bombarded his body. Fortunately, he was wearing the Streamlight Armor, and the strength of his Protective Zhen Yuan was no different from a late Astral Reaching expert's. Moreover, the second floor was filled with mid Astral Reaching experts, who couldn't tear apart his Protective Zhen Yuan.
Even so, Ye Chen's expression was exceptionally gloomy. Filled with killing intent, he glanced in the direction of the incoming Zhen Yuan streams, imprinting the latter's figure in his mind.
"Brothers, let's go! If we kill Ye Chen, Floating Mountain Sect will certainly reward us handsomely. "
Being stared at by Ye Chen, the leader of the group felt his hair stand on end. He was sure that once the latter had the time to attack, he would certainly be killed. In order to preserve his life, for the bounty of Floating Mountain Sect, he could only incite the others to attack Ye Chen together. Only by killing him could he feel at ease.
"F * ck, who dares to attack?"
"Who dares? Although we, Red North Duo, are not that strong, whoever dares to attack Ye Chen will not rest until one of us is dead."
Right at this moment, the Astral Reaching experts who had gone out to kill with Ye Chen a few days ago stood out one after another. Each and every one of them had bloodshot eyes, which was the result of fighting for a long time.
"This …"
Some Astral Reaching experts who were tempted but had yet to act retreated. The current situation was rather chaotic. Once a great battle broke out, not more than ten percent of the people would be able to walk out alive. There was no need to wade in these muddy waters.
Ye Chen gave them a deep glance, including Su Lan who had struggled for a long time before standing out. He said in a loud voice, "Everyone's help, Ye Chen is eternally grateful. As long as I don't die in the future, don't hesitate to look for me if you need any help. I can guarantee that within five years, whatever Floating Mountain Sect, nothing will enter my eyes."
"Ye Chen, we're not helping you for your return. Otherwise, how different would we be from these people? Kindness must be repaid, and enmity must be repaid. You've saved us many times in the past few days, but you didn't take all of our harvest. I can guarantee that if we don't stand out and watch you being humiliated, then what's the point of cultivating martial arts? What's the point of cultivation? We might as well go home and farm."
"That's right. Ye Chen, don't worry. We'll take care of this."
Daoist Jin Huang's lungs almost exploded from anger. Pointing at the Astral Reaching experts, he said, "Each and every one of you will die. I, Daoist Jin Huang, swear that you will die miserably."
"You won't have the chance."
Ye Chen roared, activating the Minor Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art. The cyan flame outside his body was dyed cyan-red. The opponent had a shield that contained magnetic power. If he didn't go all out, he wouldn't be able to kill him in a short period of time. Ye Chen didn't want to cause any problems, so he immediately burst out with all of his battle power.
"Green Lotus Accumulation!"
A fist-sized red lotus condensed in front of the Star Scar Sword. Following Ye Chen's slash, the green lotus tore through the air and heavily collided with the metal shield like a thunderbolt.
Creak!
The metal shield slightly twisted and flew out of his hand. As for Daoist Jin Huang, the bones in his left arm were broken inch by inch. The fierce power transmitted from his arm to his body, causing him to spurt out a huge amount of blood.
"Die!"
Striking while the iron was hot, Ye Chen slashed out with his sword.
All of a sudden, a cold blade Qi shattered Ye Chen's sword Qi. From the fourth floor of the Demon Defiance Fortress, a middle-aged man with a cold expression jumped down, "Enough! You've already killed one. There's no need to kill him as well. It's better to leave a way out."
This middle-aged man's blade Qi was swift and fierce, and his blade intent crisscrossed. He was a blade artist Ye Chen had never seen in his life. In terms of strength, he was not below the Sword Elder.
"Not good! It's one of the seven great blade artists, Ice Blade."
One of the Red North Duo furrowed his brows, "Ice Blade's cultivation base has reached late Astral Reaching realm, and his blade intent has also comprehended more than ninety percent. I'm afraid Ye Chen will be at a disadvantage against him. I don't understand why he would make a move. I've never seen him do this before!"
"I heard that Ice Blade once received benefits from an inner sect elder of Floating Mountain Sect."
"There's such a thing!"
Seeing the sudden change in the situation, Daoist Jin Huang spurted out a mouthful of turbid blood and said with great joy, "Ice Blade, this kid is extremely arrogant. He killed my assistant, Elder Rock. I hope you can lend a hand."
Bang!
As he spoke, a golden light ball condensed on Daoist Jin Huang's fingertip and shot toward Ye Chen with a swish.
The golden light ball exploded, and the aftermath caused Ye Chen's Protective Zhen Yuan to distort.
Dodging the center of the explosion, Ye Chen slashed at Daoist Jin Huang with all his strength.
Peng!
The sword Qi shattered, and Ice Blade, holding his treasured blade, said indifferently, "I told you, it's better to leave a way out. You're so young, so why be so sinister?"
"Ice Blade, no need to speak nonsense. Kill him." With Ice Blade here, Daoist Jin Huang could attack as he pleased. Golden light balls bombarded Ye Chen one after another. If not for the Demon Resistance Fort being exceptionally hard, it would have long been overturned.
His Protective Zhen Yuan shattered, and Ye Chen was sent flying. A trace of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth as he said in a cold voice, "You dare to stop me?"
If not for Ice Blade shattering his sword Qi, Daoist Jin Huang wouldn't have been able to injure him.
"Daoist Jin Huang can't die." Ice Blade's expression was cold. Every time Ye Chen attacked, he would shatter his sword Qi. As for Daoist Jin Huang's attacks, he didn't care at all.
"Haha, Ye Chen, it seems like this day next year will be your death anniversary."
Daoist Jin Huang's left arm was completely shattered, and he waved his right arm repeatedly. Golden light balls shot out one after another, attacking toward Ye Chen.
"Blood Explosion Art!"
Although Blood Explosion Art could only restrain blood demons and was the technique Blood Demon used to subdue blood demons, compared to the Minor Blood Demon Body Separation Art, the amplification of battle power was ten percent higher, reaching thirty percent. This was the limit of Ye Chen's battle power.
Activating Blood Explosion Art, the green-red flame around Ye Chen's body became even brighter. A surging aura radiated out in all directions like a hurricane.
"Green Lotus Sky!"
As the sword was waved out, the air became like a lake, turning into a deathly stillness. It enveloped Daoist Jin Huang and Ice Blade, and patches of green lotuses spread out in the void.
