Chapter 197

Chapter 197: Chapter 196: The Seven Stars Saber was incomparably powerful, a blade that fused modern high technology with the potent ancient arts of the Ancient Martial Sect. Although Lin Duan was a disciple of the Ancient Martial Sect, it seemed that the moves he used did not involve the powerful Inner Strength of the sect, which puzzled Ye Tianchen and also surprised him.

The puzzling aspect was that as a disciple of the Ancient Martial Sect, Lin Duan couldn’t have only practiced the sect’s Absolute Skills without combining them with powerful Inner Strength. Could he be hiding something?

The surprising aspect was that, without using powerful Inner Strength, Lin Duan was still able to wield the Seven Stars Saber and execute such powerfully attacking moves. Until now, Ye Tianchen had never seen anything like it since his rebirth.

At Longteng University, the back mountain’s large drill ground was already filled with dust and smoke. Two saber shadows transformed into dragons, tangible as real ones, roaring like dragons and tigers as they attacked Ye Tianchen.

This scene was truly astonishing. If anyone had been present, they would have been completely stunned. On the vast drill ground, the shadows of two huge dragons opened their mouths wide to bite at Ye Tianchen, bringing with them a sky full of dust. Even the air trembled. This terrifying sight was beyond modern people’s understanding of Ancient Martial Arts. In their wildest dreams, they could not have imagined. Talking realistically, there are skills like scaling walls and splitting mountains, talking more exaggeratedly, flying through clouds, and navigating thousands of miles with a single sword, walking on clouds to cross regions...

Thus, in this era, there are many mysteries that are yet to be solved, and very few people know of the existence of Ancient Martial Sects and Superpower Users, along with many other unknown events and phenomena. If one only uses the common way of thinking, it is absolutely unbearable and inexplicable., but you can’t help but believe; these things genuinely exist.

At this moment, just as Lin Duan unleashed two massive Sword Shadow Illusion Dragons, maximizing the might of the Seven Stars Saber, Ye Tianchen also gathered all his King-level Superpower Realm energy, preparing to withstand this powerful attack. At this moment, he dared not underestimate it at all, as the Seven Stars Saber, although not one of the top three legendary weapons of the Ancient Martial Sect, was powerful enough to shake both the righteous and the evil paths.

At that time, a pair of beautiful eyes stared unblinkingly at this scene. When she saw Lin Duan swinging the Seven Stars Saber, releasing two sword-shadow dragons attacking Ye Tianchen, she couldn’t help but frown. The roaring and tearing through the air of the two massive dragons wouldn’t affect ordinary people’s less sharp senses, and might even go unnoticed, but for experts of Ancient Martial Sect and Superpower Users, who naturally have a high level of alertness, such an outburst of dragon-like and tiger-like energy could not escape their perception.

Qin Yaoyue stood on the rooftop of the Archaeology Department building. Since Ye Tianchen and Lin Duan had arrived at the drill ground and started exchanging moves, she had been observing every move Ye Tianchen made. Although Lin Duan was also somewhat surprising, nobody expected the Archaeology Department to be such a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. However, Qin Yaoyue was more concerned about Ye Tianchen because what she had always been engaged in was also related to time travel. Let’s not discuss how she knew that Ye Tianchen was a powerful figure who had traveled from the apocalypse; just the fact that Qin Yaoyue wanted to acquire information about the apocalypse from Ye Tianchen made her very attentive toward him.

To put it plainly, the only person who knew Ye Tianchen’s real identity now was Qin Yaoyue. She approached Ye Tianchen and even took the risk of suddenly using the Mind Control Skill, trying to control him, all for the purpose of gaining information about the apocalypse. Qin Yaoyue wanted to travel there, wanting to reach the apocalypse because it held something she yearned for, a realm that would entice anyone — eternal life!

As previously stated, the apocalypse is a world that cannot be viewed with conventional thinking, or else it wouldn’t be called the apocalypse. You could imagine it as a combination of the modern, fantasy, and immortality worlds. It’s not only home to the Human Clan but also to Demon Beasts, Mutants, and even some things akin to demons. If you try to comprehend the apocalypse with a modern mindset, you’ll only breakdown or be scared to death.

"The Seven Stars Saber truly is powerful. No wonder it’s ranked within the top five weapons of the Ancient Martial Sect; it would be even better if I could get my hands on it!" Qin Yaoyue murmured in a soft voice, with a sensuous smile and a hint of a mischievous grin.

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen moved. Facing the two dragons transformed from sword shadows, he couldn’t afford to be careless. The Seven Stars Saber itself exuded a domineering aura. As Lin Duan swung the saber, the dragon patterns on both sides of the blade shone brightly, seemingly about to burst forth. Ye Tianchen noticed this and guessed that perhaps Lin Duan’s master had used the profound teachings of the Ancient Martial Sect to forcefully infuse Inner Strength into the dragon patterns, creating such a powerful effect.

"Ah!"

With a loud shout, Ye Tianchen leaped skyward, rising more than two meters, his fists still concentrating the energy of the King-level Superpower Realm and shining brightly. This left Lin Duan below staring in stupefaction, wondering what Ye Tianchen was trying to do. Was he really planning to directly confront these two Illusion Dragons? Was this guy seeking death?

If talking about Lin Duan’s earlier use of the Seven Stars Saber, it was merely a simple strike, and Ye Tianchen had managed to withstand it. Lin Duan was surprised but not yet shocked because he hadn’t used his full strength, and the power of the Seven Stars Saber hadn’t been fully unleashed. Ye Tianchen had blocked that massive sword shadow, proving his strength was formidable but not terrifyingly so. However, now the power of the Seven Stars Saber was fully revealed, materializing from nothingness to substantiality, almost displaying the shadows of two Overlord Dragons. How exaggerated and mighty this was. Ye Tianchen dared to confront it directly?

Bang!

With a loud bang, Ye Tianchen’s right fist struck the top of an Illusion Dragon’s head, blocking it forcibly, but another Illusion Dragon arrived and opened its massive jaws to devour Ye Tianchen. Extending his left hand, a Light Sword instantly appeared in his palm, formed from the concentrated energy of a King-level Superpower Realm, and with one stroke, he slashed at the other Illusion Dragon.

Bang, bang!

Two more loud sounds echoed, and explosions occurred at the center of the large drill ground, where two Illusion Dragons, summoned by the Seven Stars Saber, directly burst in mid-air. Although Ye Tianchen cleaved One Overlord Dragon with his sword in the left hand and withstood a Giant Dragon with a punch of his right hand, he still could not withstand the robust attacks of the two dragons. The Illusion Dragons merged together and exploded, with Ye Tianchen at the epicenter of the blast.

This intense battle and shocking explosion did not emit any sound, such that even Qin Yaoyue, standing on the rooftop of the Archaeology Department, only saw the stunning explosion but heard no sound. She couldn’t help but frown and then a smile appeared at her lips, "So you had used the Superpower Isolation Net early on. Facing such powerful attacks and still able to deflect with Superpower Skill, Ye Tianchen, I must get information about the apocalypse from you, I must go to the apocalypse..."

"Brother Ye..." Lin Duan, witnessing such a scene, was stunned. He didn’t intend to kill Ye Tianchen but merely wanted to defeat him to enhance the reputation of Tianlin Law Firm and wanted Ye Tianchen to join his firm and work for him.

Little did he know, it would turn out this way, with Ye Tianchen recklessly clashing with the Seven Stars Saber, torn to shreds by two giant blades of energy materialized from the dragons, likely blasted to bits without even bone fragments remaining.

Till now, Lin Duan had not realized that when the two arrived at the drill ground, Ye Tianchen had secretly set up a Superpower Isolation Net. Otherwise, with the immense power of the Seven Stars Saber, a swing would unleash a mighty blade force, and it would be odd not to disturb many teachers and students of Longteng University with such power, especially when Lin Duan exerted all his strength at the end, the Seven Stars Saber’s immense force created two blade-formed dragons in the air, amidst sounds of Dragon Roars—anyone seeing and hearing this would be utterly shocked, even scared to death.

Imagine, two huge Illusion Dragons diving down at you amidst dragon and tiger roars as you stand in the empty drill ground. The feeling is almost unnerving, guaranteed to scare you out of your wits.

"Impressive, impressive, the Seven Stars Saber indeed has significant power..."

Suddenly, Lin Duan heard Ye Tianchen’s voice, which astounded him, as he stared dumbfounded into the air; gradually, the dust settled down, revealing a water sphere mid-air, with Ye Tianchen enveloped inside, his right sleeve entirely shredded. The explosive collision of the two blade-formed Illusion Dragons had hit him, and Ye Tianchen quickly used the Water Element Superpower Skill to protect himself, yet was still a bit too slow, his right arm caught in the residual blast energy.

Actually, the moment Ye Tianchen’s right fist smashed into one of the blade-shaped Illusion Dragons’ heads, he knew he couldn’t hold them off. The Seven Stars Saber’s power was massive, swinging out two blade-formed Illusion Dragons, all energy shaped, with tremendous force. Just by their attack power alone, they were strong but once combined, their destructive power would instantly expand, catching one off guard. The reason he quickly concentrated King-level Strange Energy in his left hand to form a Light Sword aimed at the other Illusion Dragon was to buy some time to use his Water Element Superpower Skill.

This time, Ye Tianchen did not use a Superpower Light Shield to protect himself, as he sensed the energy breath of the two blade-formed Illusion Dragons contained elements of the Earth Element. Water overcomes earth, which was the best method.

Whoosh!

The water sphere encasing Ye Tianchen burst, and the water drops all fell to the ground, with Ye Tianchen landing firmly, looking at Lin Duan and smiling, "The Seven Stars Saber has formidable power, indeed a remarkable weapon!"

"You... are you all right?" Lin Duan gaped at Ye Tianchen, never expecting that anyone in the world who could clash head-on with the Seven Stars Saber, unleashing immense power, could remain completely unharmed. How strong was Ye Tianchen?

Meanwhile, standing atop the roof of the Archaeology Department, Qin Yaoyue also widened her beautiful eyes. Ye Tianchen blocking the Seven Stars Saber shocked her the most. The fact that Ye Tianchen could also use Water Element Superpower Skill astonished her; based on her current information, Ye Tianchen had used Thunder Element and Earth Element Superpower Skills, which was already surprising, and now he had used Water Element Superpower Skill, truly shocking.

"Could it be, could it be that Ye Tianchen is... a Five Elements Superpower User?" Suddenly, Qin Yaoyue gasped, her sexy lips agape in disbelief as she stared at Ye Tianchen in the distance, murmuring quietly to herself.(To be continued.
