Sky Plundering Again!
Ye Zichen could barely breathe under the intense pressure of a supreme divine being. The grass hut crumbled under the envoy's berserk divine power.
The world turned pitch-black. Countless cyclones swirled in the void, vaguely showing signs of tearing the space apart.
"Did you notice?"
In the face of the envoy's sudden attack, Ye Zichen's expression grew unsightly.
Given his strength, he could sense the difference in power between them. If he fought the envoy head-on, it wouldn't end well for him.
He couldn't afford to panic. If he did, it would truly be over.
"Esteemed Envoy, what's the meaning of this?"
Even in the face of such intense pressure, Ye Zichen knit his brows and puffed out his chest. His expression was one of incomprehension and hatred. At the same time, he opened his hand and revealed his fire-attribute spatial ring.
"I'm here to make a deal with you. My family gave this to me. Those yao are nothing but subordinates. How can they be considered allies? If you're trying to test me, I don't think there's any need at all. The ring is right here. Just take a look and you'll find out. "
He tossed the ring at the envoy. As expected, the envoy reached out and caught it. While the envoy examined the ring's contents, Ye Zichen no longer hesitated. He tried to summon the Yao-Sealing Pagoda.
This might be his only chance. That's why he didn't summon the Yao-Sealing Pagoda right away.
That was because the envoy's aura was locked onto him. If he made the slightest movement, the envoy would kill him on the spot.
If he gave the envoy the ring, he'd split some of his attention to examine it. That way, Ye Zichen could sneak into the Yao-Sealing Pagoda while the envoy was off guard.
"The Yao-Sealing Pagoda!"
Ye Zichen tried to connect with the pagoda, but to his astonishment, his connection with it had been severed.
"You're seeking death!"
After examining the ring, the envoy crushed it to dust. Although the spatial ring Ye Zichen had given him was of the fire element, it contained no treasures at all.
The emissary, who was burning with rage, threw a punch at him.
His fist whistled through the air, tearing the surrounding space apart. Several spatial cracks appeared in the air.
Ye Zichen was shocked. He immediately crossed his arms in front of his chest.
Ye Zichen's fist slammed into his arm. The immense force sent Ye Zichen flying out of the thatched hut's courtyard. He flew a full hundred meters before coming to a stop.
That huge force caused his blood to churn, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
It landed on the grass, leaving a smear of dark red.
"Your Honor."
Jiao Qi and Meng Huairong, who'd left with Chi Mei long ago, were visibly shaken. They looked pleadingly at Chi Mei, hoping she'd let them go save Ye Zichen.
Chi Mei merely smiled faintly without any worry in her eyes.
"What's the rush? Just stay here. This master of yours usually hides his cards very deeply. Isn't it good to have a chance to see his trump card now? "
Ye Zichen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then stood up with bloodshot eyes as he looked at the envoy, who was still closing in on him.
"It's not that easy to take my life! Ley! "
Muffled claps of thunder boomed through the sky. Lightning snakes as thick as pythons flicked their tongues and lunged at the envoy.
The envoy's expression was disdainful. He dodged the lightning snakes a few times, but when they landed, they immediately blasted several large craters into the ground.
"Wind, rain, lightning, fire!"
In this moment of life and death, Ye Zichen couldn't hold back. Even if word got out that he was proficient in the Dao of the Five Elements, he had to use it. As he roared, wind, rain, lightning, and fire instantly appeared. Including the lightning from before, they were the five elements of heaven and earth.
"The Dao of the Five Elements!"
The envoy shot past Ye Zichen in astonishment. Ever since the Five Elements Great Emperor's death, practically all cultivators of the Five Elements had disappeared from the God Realm. Ignoring the fact that the Dao of the Five Elements was difficult to comprehend, even if you were lucky enough to step into it, you'd find it difficult to reach its peak after losing your dao heart.
Yet this person had comprehended the Dao of the Five Elements, and seemed to have achieved minor success!
"Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation!"
As soon as the Five Elements appeared, Ye Zichen roared once more.
Instantly, an Eight Trigrams formation appeared beneath his feet. Shockingly, the Dao of the Five Elements existed within it.
"Barrier!"
With another roar, the Eight Trigrams formation dissipated, transforming into countless motes of light that fell from the sky.
The motes of light converged to form a barrier of light that contained the Dao of the Five Elements, completely trapping Ye Zichen within.
"Hmph, do you think I can't do anything to you just because you've got a turtle shell?"
When the envoy saw Ye Zichen transform the Dao of the Five Elements into a defensive barrier, he sneered disdainfully.
In a situation like this where he had no way out, defending would only lead to a slow death. In the end, he wouldn't be able to escape death. If he wanted to live, he might as well go all out with a thunderous attack. He might even have a chance at survival.
In his eyes, Ye Zichen was already meat on the chopping block. He could no longer stir up any trouble.
However, within the barrier, Ye Zichen smiled wickedly. In the blink of an eye, he pulled a demigod longsword from his spatial ring.
He held it in his right hand and stroked its edge with his left.
When his left hand fell, his gaze sharpened beyond compare. He raised the sword high into the air, then gripped the hilt with both hands.
The illusory image of an azure dragon appeared behind him. As the dragon roared, his longsword flashed with blinding golden light.
"So it's him!"
Chi Mei, who'd been watching from afar, was shocked. However, she quickly smiled radiantly.
Even when she saw Ye Zichen display the Dao of the Five Elements, she wasn't surprised in the slightest. He'd obtained the Yao-Sealing Pagoda and even activated it, so he had to possess the Dao of the Five Elements.
This was all within her knowledge, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
In truth, she'd only done this to see just how far Ye Zichen had progressed in the Great Dao of the Five Elements. She never would have guessed he'd bring her so many pleasant surprises.
"Since you're him, I'm afraid there's no need for this test to continue. Sweetie, I really wasn't wrong about you! "
A sickly smile suddenly appeared on Chi Mei's face. Her entire face was stained with a pinkish hue. Jiao Qi and Meng Huairong were astonished as well. Even though they were so far away, they could still sense the heaven-destroying, earth-shattering power contained within Ye Zichen's sword technique.
Jiao Qi and Meng Huairong couldn't help but look at each other in astonishment.
If they asked themselves honestly, even if they were in their true forms, it would be difficult for them to block this next attack.
At the same time, Ye Zichen raised his demigod artifact and roared, "How dare you!
