Ye Chen forcibly suppressed the urge to take out the Sky Scorpio Sword. At this moment, the black-robed elder was already approaching. Even if he took out the sword and broke the energy cover, he wouldn't be able to escape from the black-robed elder's control. Therefore, it would be better to wait and see before making a decision. Otherwise, a single Sky Scorpio Sword could bring about too many variables.
Most importantly, compared to the Evil Shattering Sword, the Sky Scorpio Sword consumed several times more Zhen Yuan. One sword strike would probably drain his Zhen Yuan, which was tantamount to seeking his own death.
Turning around, Ye Chen's face darkened, "What business do you have with us, sir?"
The black-robed elder slowly walked over and said with a creepy smile, "Two things, take her away, and kill you."
"You really want a life and death struggle?"
Circulating the Green Lotus Sword Arts, Ye Chen's Zhen Yuan accumulated to the extreme. The Destruction Sword Soul and Immortal Sword Soul in his Sea of Soul trembled unceasingly, as if they would fly out at any moment. The black-robed elder was a Demonic Human King, and his battle power was inestimable. Ye Chen had to push his battle power to the limit, or even surpass it, to have a chance to contend against him.
"A life and death struggle? You think you're qualified? "
Stopping dozens of li away, the black-robed elder said disdainfully.
"Step back a bit." Ye Chen knew that this battle was unavoidable, and it would probably be the most dangerous one since his debut. Tilting his head, he told Murong Qingcheng to step back dozens of li to avoid being injured by the shockwaves of the battle. If there was a chance, he would escape first.
"Be careful."
Pursing her lips, Murong Qingcheng obediently stepped back. However, it was impossible for her to escape by herself. But now was not the time to distract Ye Chen.
"En."
Ye Chen nodded, and his eyes moved back to the black-robed elder.
"Seems like you won't give up without a fight?" The black-robed elder said.
Ye Chen said, "I, Ye Chen, have never given up without a fight. Not this time, and not in the future. If you want my life, come!"
While speaking, he took out ten Supreme Clear Pills and put them in his mouth. At this critical moment, he needed Supreme Clear Pills to recover his Zhen Yuan.
The black-robed old man was confident of his victory, so he didn't try to stop him.
"Are you ready?" His voice became sharp.
"Bring it on!"
"Haha, go to hell!"
From dozens of miles away, the black-robed elder threw out a palm attack towards Ye Chen. This palm attack did not use any profound sense martial arts; it was just pure Zhen yuan palm energy. However, the palm energy that had been thrown out by the Human Demon King was horrifying to the extreme. Once the palm attack was thrown out, the clouds in the sky sped up a hundred times faster than before. The seawater was split into two, creating a miraculous deep ditch. As for the volcanic island, half of it was destroyed by the palm attack, while the other half was on the elder's side.
The shattered pieces did not scatter in all directions. Instead, they floated in the air, motionless. It turned out that the black-robed old man's palm strike had turned the area within a thousand li into a vacuum. At the same time, the sky darkened completely. Demonic Qi surged, as if doomsday had arrived.
However, this alone was not enough to make Ye Chen's expression change. What truly caused his expression to change was that the space in front of him had shattered into thousands of pieces like a mirror. This was a strengthened version of Bewitching Mirror Shattering, and its might was more than doubled.
Waning Moon? Don't take it as a joke. Ye Chen roared, and a cyan Qi flow spread out with him as the center. In the next moment, a boundless sword domain covered hundreds of li. Numerous cyan swords condensed and shot out, facing the incoming attack.
"Eh? It's Sword Domain! "
The black-robed old man's mind turned at lightning speed. Among Life and Death Sword Kings, there were not more than three who possessed Sword Domain. He only knew one. Sword Domain's might was vast, combining defense, suppression, and offense. If a Life and Death Sword King enveloped him with Sword Domain, the black-robed old man's only thought would be to escape. He would run as fast and as far as he could. If he couldn't escape, he would be tortured to death without any hope.
Unfortunately, Ye Chen's Sword Domain was merely in embryonic form, and his cultivation base was a whole realm lower than the black-robed old man's. Not to mention embryonic form, even if Ye Chen had grasped the true Sword Domain, he wouldn't be afraid. The reason he was astonished was because Ye Chen had grasped Sword Domain too early, surpassing common sense.
Sword Domain alone was not enough. Ye Chen brandished the Evil Vanquishing Sword, and the strongest sword move, Bewitching Mirror Shattering, accompanied by a cyan sword rain, shot out.
Ding ding ding ding ding …
Kacha Kacha Kacha …
Peng Peng Peng …
Countless clashing noises were heard as a galaxy seemed to have appeared between Ye Chen and the black-robed old man. Within the galaxy, the sword light was bright and dazzling. Transparent cracks spread out in all directions, seeming like the sharpest godly blade. Wherever it passed, everything would be destroyed.
In the end, all the energy shattered into energy streams, and a huge black blurry hand pierced through the colorful energy streams and slammed into Ye Chen's Protective Zhen Yuan.
Puff!
Ye Chen spurted out a mouthful of blood. His Protective Zhen Yuan, which had been reinforced by the pseudo extreme grade bronze armor, couldn't even withstand a single blow. The hazy palm imprint landed on his chest. Immediately, a majestic power passed through the armor and into his body. At this moment, he felt as if his internal organs were about to shatter. His chest seemed to have caved in, and his back was protruding out.
"So powerful! Too powerful!"
The reason why Ye Chen didn't die was because of the bronze armor, the dragon bone layer covering his skin, and the Undying Body, which gave him a tenacious life force. Even so, the black-robed old man's weakened palm still nearly tore him into pieces.
Ye Chen had finally experienced the might of a Demonic Human King. The gap between the two could no longer be calculated with logic. They were not on the same level at all.
Gulp!
Swallowing a Supreme Clear Pellet, he took out a handful of Yuan Qi replenishing upper grade pellets from his storage ring and stuffed them all into his mouth, then swallowed them all.
"Impossible! He didn't die?!"
The black-robed old man was greatly surprised. How powerful a Life and Death King was? As long as one knew they could shatter the void, it would be enough. Although his palm strike had been mostly neutralized by Ye Chen's Sword Domain and Bewitching Mirror Shattering, the remaining power was still enough to easily kill a 'strongest' half-step King, even if the latter was wearing a pseudo extreme grade artifact.
"Not bad! I have to have a whole new level of respect for you."
The black-robed old man stood with his hands clasped behind his back, a trace of graveness in his eyes. Given time, when Ye Chen entered Life and Death Realm, he would become a frightening enemy. Since he was an enemy, he would have to cut the weeds and remove the roots. Otherwise, the consequences would be unbearable.
Ye Chen's body was stooped, and his aura was extremely weak. He seemed like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any moment. However, his eyes were extremely bright as they fixedly stared at the black-robed old man. Inside his body, the Yuan Qi of the pellets was surging. Under the operation of the Undying Body, it was rapidly nourishing his body and restoring his vitality.
Seeing Ye Chen's aura rising, showing signs of recovering to his peak, the black-robed old man's expression changed. What was he seeing? A mere half-step King had actually comprehended the Undying Body! This was an ability only Life and Death Kings possessed, and it was one of the symbols of Life and Death Kings.
"No, it still hasn't reached the level of Broken Limb Rebirth!"
The black-robed old man's Undying Body was the first realm of Broken Limb Rebirth, so he naturally knew the mysteries of Broken Limb Rebirth. Although the recovery speed of Ye Chen's Undying Body was far inferior to Broken Limb Rebirth, it still couldn't be underestimated. After all, such a heavy injury had been recovered by seventy to eighty percent.
"Let's see how many palms you can take!"
Without using any profound martial skill, the black-robed old man extended his right hand, intending to strike at Ye Chen. He believed that this palm strike could absolutely kill the latter. It should be known that the latter had been injured so heavily by him even at his peak, and had yet to recover!
"Demonic Fist!"
Abruptly —
The bat wings on Murong Qingcheng's back blossomed with a dazzling black radiance. With a flap of the bat wings, Murong Qingcheng's speed rose to an unprecedented limit. In less than a hundredth of a blink, she arrived above the black-robed old man and punched down.
This punch was like a small shining black sun, indestructible and indestructible.
It was unknown if the black-robed old man couldn't react in time or if he didn't care, but he actually let Murong Qingcheng's punch hit him.
Boom!
When the fist was three feet away from the black-robed old man, a layer of black Qi blocked Murong Qingcheng's fist, and a ferocious Qi burst out, soaring into the sky.
Pop!
The Qi wall shattered, and Murong Qingcheng was sent flying.
The black-robed old man laughed, "Worthy of the perfect demonic human bloodline, you have so many secrets. Your punch just now contained an impure King level demonic power, otherwise it would have been impossible to break my True Yuan Qi wall. Good, the more potential you have, the more secrets you have, the more benefits my demonic human clan will have."
"Even a punch containing demonic power essence couldn't touch him?"
Murong Qingcheng's face revealed a trace of bitterness. The demonic power essence in her body came from the Demonic Beast Kings in the parallel space battlefield, and its purity was equivalent to King level demonic power. As she entered the half-step King realm, the diluted demonic power essence was also close to King level demonic power. Combined with the demonic power fist, Murong Qingcheng originally thought she could slightly threaten the black-robed old man. However, the latter's strength was completely beyond her expectations.
In other words, she had never truly understood the strength of Life and Death Kings or Demonic Human Kings. She had merely made some guesses.
"Six Way Sky Sealing Array!"
Withdrawing his smile, the black-robed old man threw out six crystal pillars, which pierced through the void and landed around Murong Qingcheng. In the next moment, a large number of crystal light screens exploded, interconnecting and forming a sealed crystal space. Murong Qingcheng was trapped inside, floating in the air.
"You can have a good rest inside! After I kill him, I'll bring you back. "The black-robed old man no longer looked at Murong Qingcheng, and his gaze fell on Ye Chen.
Ye Chen's injuries had already completely recovered, and his aura was like a beacon. A year ago, his Undying Body had already faintly touched upon the second realm — Limb Regrowth. His recovery speed was much faster than before. Admittedly, the black-robed old man's palm had left him on the verge of death, but as long as his body wasn't destroyed, his recovery would be quick. Of course, the initial stage of the Undying Body had its limits. He didn't dare to be sure how many strikes he could endure.
"I can't take a second strike."
Ye Chen glanced at Murong Qingcheng, who was trapped in the crystal space, and a resolute light flickered in his eyes. His storage ring flickered with a dim light, and a peerless sword with a boundless might appeared in Ye Chen's hand. Without unsheathing the sword, a world-slaughtering sword Qi spread out, engulfing the surroundings.
With the Sky Scorpio Sword in hand, Ye Chen's aura rose again and again, as if there was no limit. At this moment, he seemed to be able to contend against the black-robed old man.
