The giant wolf evil spirit's speed was extremely fast. With a flicker of illusory light, it appeared in front of Ye Chen. Its thick and powerful right claw ferociously slammed down, leaving cracks in the space. It had the ability to shatter space, even if it was not comparable to a Life and Death King.
"It can actually tear space!"
Ye Chen's pupils shrank. The giant wolf evil spirit's battle strength was even above his imagination. Circulating the Zhen Yuan in his body to the limit, his blood almost igniting. Finally, it flowed along the flesh of his right arm and converged on the Evil Vanquishing Sword. The sword blossomed with a jade-like sword light as it slashed forward.
Clang! Pa!
The giant wolf evil spirit's claw collided with the Evil Vanquishing Sword, causing the space to sway. A few pitch-black cracks appeared in the space before finally collapsing. Under this space-shattering power, Ye Chen's Evil Vanquishing Sword curved into a shocking arc before fiercely rebounding, sending Ye Chen flying three to four li away.
At the same time, a frightening ripple spread out in the open space between the two. The ground was scraped open one layer after another, reaching dozens of zhang deep.
"So powerful!"
This was the first time Ye Chen was at a disadvantage under Life and Death realm. The giant wolf evil spirit's offensive power was undoubtedly above his.
Swish!
After a slight pause in the air, the giant wolf evil spirit pounced at Ye Chen once again. Wherever it went, the space would distort, making it difficult to understand.
With his undying body, Ye Chen wasn't injured in the slightest. He lightly stomped on the ground and leaped up. The Evil Vanquishing Sword in his hand emitted hundreds of cold stars. It was precisely his fastest sword art — Spiritual Sword. As soon as Spiritual Sword was unleashed, Ye Chen's perception was pushed to the limit. Each sword strike aimed at the giant wolf evil spirit's flaws.
Aowu!
The giant wolf evil spirit roared and crashed into the dense net of cold stars. In the next moment, numerous flat sword holes appeared on its huge body. The sword holes exploded and expanded to the size of a fist. Moreover, it paused in the air for a moment, showing signs of rigidity.
"Waning Moon!"
Holding the sword with both hands, Ye Chen forcefully slashed down.
Puchi!
The black waning moon embedded itself into the giant wolf vicious spirit's head, moving along its chest. A small half of its body was almost cut open, radiance surging.
However, a peak evil spirit was still a peak evil spirit. It was extremely difficult to disperse. Even after being struck by Ye Chen's Waning Moon, it was still as lively as ever. Its two front claws slashed at Ye Chen. The edges of the claws had black cracks that contained a powerful suction force.
Dang!
The Giant Wolf Evil Spirit's attack was too fast. Ye Chen only had time to raise his sword to block it. Under the power of the Space Shattering Force, his whole body flew out diagonally. Finally, his feet landed on the ground and slid out. The soil on the ground surged, and a deep ravine was formed.
"The first level of Life and Death Challenge is still a bit low."
Frowning, Ye Chen realized that there were some internal injuries in his body. Fortunately, the Immortal Body was currently healing these internal injuries and adjusting his bodily functions.
"Do I have to use the Sky Scorpio Sword?"
Ye Chen was slightly hesitant.
"No, the Sky Scorpio Sword is my last resort. It's best not to rely on it unless it's a matter of life and death. Otherwise, once I become dependent on it, there will be unpredictable obstacles to my cultivation. The gains do not make up for the losses. Seems like I have to go all out."
With a shake of his body, Ye Chen unleashed Sword Domain, enveloping the giant wolf evil spirit within.
Sword Domain was the domain of a sword artist. Apart from its great offensive power, it also had the ability to suppress the opponent. The giant wolf evil spirit's speed was originally extremely fast, but under the suppression of Sword Domain, its speed was immediately reduced by one-fifth. In Ye Chen's eyes, it instantly became sluggish.
With Sword Domain, Ye Chen had a much easier time dealing with the evil spirit. At the very least, its movement and attack speed no longer made him feel tired.
Of course, although its movement and attack speed had been reduced, the evil spirit was, after all, a peak level evil spirit. Ye Chen's attacks simply couldn't injure it. At most, he could create some small scars. Moreover, out of every ten attacks, one would still land on Ye Chen's body.
"The life and death Qi of a peak level evil spirit is too abundant. It can completely exhaust my Zhen Yuan and then kill me. No wonder Battle King needed a whole day to kill a peak level evil spirit."
Ye Chen sighed, his eyes turning sharp.
"Bewitching Mirror Shattering!"
Retreating, Ye Chen's Evil Vanquishing Sword was wrapped in an invisible spatial power. At a glance, the sword seemed to be twisted and folded, making it impossible to see the sword's trajectory. It was as if the Evil Vanquishing Sword's attack range was everywhere.
Unable to dodge, the evil spirit was struck by the Evil Vanquishing Sword.
Buzz!
In the next moment, the evil spirit was sealed in a mirror-like space. The mirror-like space rapidly twisted and shattered. Within the void, cracks could be seen everywhere, and the suction power became chaotic. By relying on Bewitching Mirror Shattering, Ye Chen also had the ability to shatter space.
Aowu!
Countless hideous cracks appeared on the surface of the Giant Wolf Evil Spirit's body. The shallowest crack was several inches deep, and the deepest crack almost tore the Giant Wolf Evil Spirit in half. The terrifying destructive power far surpassed that of the Waning Moon Sword Technique.
"Eh? It's a token!"
Through the cracks, Ye Chen saw a stone token inside the evil spirit's body.
"It's a life-and-death token!"
The name of an item appeared in Ye Chen's mind.
Life-and-Death Secret Realm was divided into three regions: the outer region, the inner region, and the core region. The core region had a Life-and-Death Palace, and the most basic requirement to enter it was a life-and-death token.
In other words, the life-and-death token was the pass to enter Life-and-Death Palace.
"But, it's still not quite possible to kill this top level evil spirit!"
Ye Chen smiled bitterly. In his eyes, the injuries on the evil spirit's body were recovering at a visible speed. Of course, at the same time, the evil spirit's life-and-death Qi was also decreasing, not as dense as before. However, this was Life-and-Death Secret Realm, and life-and-death Qi was everywhere. Relying on its instinct, the evil spirit began absorbing life-and-death Qi from the outside world to replenish itself.
"Either run away immediately, or use absolute strength to shatter its body. There's no third way to kill it."
Ye Chen had a deep understanding of peak evil spirits.
In almost a blink of an eye, the giant wolf evil spirit's battle power recovered to its peak. Ye Chen didn't know whether it was his misconception or not, but the evil spirit seemed to be a bit more tyrannical than before. Its dense ink-like savage aura even caused the space to fluctuate slightly.
"Kill!"
Unwavering confidence, Ye Chen didn't retreat. Instead, he advanced, raising his sword to meet the evil spirit. The Evil Vanquishing Sword in his hand blossomed with sword Qi that seemed to want to shatter space.
Rumble!
One wolf and one man battled once again. Berserk Qi ripples swept out in all directions, and could be clearly felt even from ten thousand li away.
"Who's fighting?"
"Such frightening ripples … Could it be that someone is joining hands to deal with a peak level evil spirit?"
"Peak level evil spirits have life-and-death tokens inside their bodies. Only those with life-and-death tokens can enter Life-and-Death Palace. Seems like someone can't wait any longer and is looking for a partner."
Although there weren't many young experts left in the core area, and most of them had been transported out, the core area wasn't that big, and the distance between them wasn't that far. Thus, there were only six or seven people who sensed the commotion.
However, they didn't think that someone was fighting a peak level evil spirit alone.
A peak level evil spirit was not something that a single person could contend against.
They really wanted to go and take a look, but they didn't dare. In the secret realm, everyone was an opponent. If they went, they would be courting death. If they didn't get killed by a peak level evil spirit, then they would be killed by a group of young experts. Patience was a must.
Ye Chen's current situation was extremely bad. The evil spirit was like a perpetual motion machine that would never tire. The battle had already gone on for two hours, and the evil spirit was still in peak condition. On the other hand, Ye Chen was gradually getting tired.
In the end, Ye Chen was a human, a living being with flesh and blood. He had his limits.
Clang!
Sparks flew everywhere as Ye Chen was struck by the evil spirit for the first time. The clothes on his chest were torn apart, and the pseudo extreme grade bronze armor exploded with blazing sparks.
Spurting out a mouthful of blood, Ye Chen's entire body was flung away, and his sword domain was broken by itself.
"Not good!"
Circulating his Undying Body with all his might, Ye Chen pushed his sword steps to the limit. With a slight flicker, he evaded the evil spirit's consecutive attacks.
Roar!
Letting out a roar, the evil spirit tilted its head and spat out a light beam condensed from life-and-death Qi. The light beam shattered the space and landed on Ye Chen's shoulder.
His body tumbling, Ye Chen was buried deep into the ground.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The evil spirit wouldn't let Ye Chen go so easily. The meaning of its existence was to kill anyone who entered the Life and Death Secret Realm.
The ground was rolling and shaking. The land within dozens of miles seemed to have turned into brown boiling water, bringing up waves of dirt. If someone were to dive into the ground, he or she would find that the ground had turned into sand and was continuously rolling and shaking. In such a harsh environment, even a third level Life and Death Challenge warrior would not be able to make it out alive.
After attacking the ground for hundreds of times, the evil spirit opened its mouth, and a light ball of life-and-death Qi took shape. It then shot toward the center of the ground.
Rumble!
A sand fountain appeared on the ground, and the sky turned dusky.
Hovering in the air, the evil spirit stopped attacking. It could sense that there was no longer any life fluctuation underground. This troublesome human was already dead.
"Life and death reincarnation. Life is not the starting point, and death is not the end."
The lifeless underground suddenly burst forth with a powerful life force. Grass and trees grew at a visible speed on the destroyed land. In just a few moments, hundreds of li had turned into an oasis.
The ground caved in, and Ye Chen flew out, his aura soaring.
At this moment, he was in the second layer of life-and-death chamber. The life-and-death Qi had vaguely formed a simple cycle, growing and multiplying without end.
"Speaking of which, I still have to thank you."
Raising his head, Ye Chen looked at the evil spirit that was about to leave with an intense battle intent in his eyes.
Swish!
The evil spirit had no emotions and didn't know what shock was. Seeing that Ye Chen wasn't dead, it flashed over and continued to attack.
Without retreating, Ye Chen swung the Evil Vanquishing Sword. As the sword tip streaked across the space, it tore open a pitch-black crack.
