Chapter 344

Chapter 344: Chapter 343 To confront the even more insane attacks of the Beichen Saber Style that were coming, Ye Tianchen decided to tame the Taie Sword, one of the ancient ten swords ranked fourth, known as the Power Sword. The very word "power" indicated unquestionable authority, an overwhelming pressure with the strength to destroy heavens and obliterate the earth, truly not something that ordinary people could withstand.

Ye Tianchen wanted to thoroughly tame the Taie Sword. To do so, he had to suppress the Power of Might contained within the sword itself and then fuse it with his own power. Otherwise, he would not be able to fully wield the Taie Sword. At best, he could only manage it like Blood Demon Jiao, wearing a pair of insulated gloves, but this would not unleash the true power of the Taie Sword, making it meaningless and unable to enhance Ye Tianchen’s combat strength.

Little did he know, just as Ye Tianchen had begun to suppress the Taie Sword with his most quintessential energy, before it even fully collided, he already suffered a great backlash. A domineering force of immense power burst forth from the body of the Taie Sword, trying to pierce through Ye Tianchen. Luckily, Ye Tianchen was prepared and instantly activated the Golden Divine Shield, blocking that terrifying Sword Qi.

However, no sooner had Ye Tianchen used the Golden Divine Shield to block that terrifying Sword Qi, another massive pressure bore down directly on him. The Power of Might harbored within the Taie Sword was simply too formidable, actually knocking Ye Tianchen off his feet.

"Big brother..." Lin Duan saw this scene, and his entire being was startled. He quickly grasped the Seven Stars Saber, ready to suppress the Taie Sword.

"Don’t come over. I want all the powers of the Taie Sword to burst forth. Only through such suppression and fusion can the Taie Sword be completely tamed by me!"

As Lin Duan prepared to wield the Seven Stars Saber to assist Ye Tianchen, Ye Tianchen suddenly yelled loudly, standing up from the ground. Despite the bloodstains at the corner of his mouth and on the right hand holding the Taie Sword, his gaze was incredibly determined; he fixed his eyes on the Taie Sword and suddenly grabbed its blade with his left hand. Blood immediately started dripping from his left hand, flowing down the blade of the Taie Sword and reaching every place.

Boom!

The entire surrounding area of Ye Tianchen’s villa was enveloped in fierce winds and flying sand. The Taie Sword trembled incessantly, as Ye Tianchen unleashed powerful strength, holding onto the Taie Sword with both hands tightly. He had made up his mind to tame the Taie Sword, which is why he wanted to unleash its most powerful force. Although doing so added a significant risk to his life, because as a Power Sword, simply the word "power" stated everything. If Ye Tianchen triggered the most powerful strength of the Taie Sword without being able to suppress and merge it, then he would undoubtedly die. It was a gamble with his life on the line.

Whoosh!

A beam of blue sword light shot into the sky, instantly tearing apart the heavens and descending toward Ye Tianchen with a momentum that claimed to cut through everything, as if nothing could stop it.

At the next moment, Ye Tianchen released the Taie Sword blade he was holding with his left hand. On his bloodstained left hand, a broadsword condensed from Superpower emerged, blocking the descending sword light from the heavens.

Ye Tianchen had not anticipated that the power of the Taie Sword would be so enormous, severely underestimating the Power of Might contained within its blade. Now, with his right hand fully gripping the handle of the Taie Sword, he could only use his left hand to block that blue sword light capable of cleaving through all.

At this very moment, the entire Taie Sword seemed to be in a frenzy, trembling nonstop. With such an overwhelming sensation that it could make anyone tremble, let alone Ye Tianchen, even Lin Duan standing on the side, wielding the Seven Stars Saber, was also extremely astonished. It was unimaginable what kind of situations one would face should anyone try to tame the ancient ten Divine Swords, and if someone actually did, what an incredible height that would be?

But according to Zhang Yide’s speculation, the ancient ten Divine Swords were originally a Sword Array, not of Earth but an extraterrestrial object. This suggests that previously, someone had possessed all ten ancient swords and even merged them into a Sword Array. Just thinking about it sent chills down the spine, no longer daring to think further.

It’s understandable that just one Taie Sword, even with all of Ye Tianchen’s effort, he could not subdue it immediately. How formidable must the person who once possessed all ten ancient Divine Swords be? Perhaps not the strongest in the universe, but not far from it either!

Bang!

The beam of blue sword light chopped down, and the Superpower Sword Qi condensed in Ye Tianchen’s left hand could barely block the Sword Qi for a moment before being scattered. The sword light also struck Ye Tianchen’s left arm, nearly severing his entire left arm.

Spurt!

Blood splattered as a long, deep gash appeared on Ye Tianchen’s left arm, causing Lin Duan to tremble with fear, unable to believe that the Taie Sword could be so formidable. Ye Tianchen, whose strength was unfathomable, had been wounded by the Taie Sword to such an extent, and it was only the beginning. If it continued like this, not only would he fail to subjugate the Taie Sword, but Ye Tianchen might also lose his life because of it.

"Big brother, should we use the Seven Stars Saber to suppress it?" Lin Duan couldn’t help but suggest.

"It’s useless; to subdue the Taie Sword, one must rely on one’s own strength. One must merge one’s energy into the blade and overcome the Power of Might within the sword to make it serve me!" Despite his injuries, Ye Tianchen forcibly grasped the hilt of the Taie Sword with his right hand, thrust it into the ground, and clasped his hands together as blood flowed continuously from the hilt down to the ground.

Lin Duan watched in utter shock; it was his first time seeing someone subdue a weapon using blood and such a method, even for someone as powerful as Ye Tianchen. Ye Tianchen’s method of subduing the Taie Sword was indeed quite extraordinary.

Ye Tianchen was reborn on the apocalypse star, a world combining modern and ancient aspects, a world where anything could happen. Describing it as a world of fantasy and immortal heroes was not an overstatement. With the vastness of the universe and its endless mysteries, who could say that worlds of magic and immortal heroes didn’t exist? Perhaps we’re just living at the very bottom of the universe, a group of people unable to escape our fate.

Thus, when thinking about making the Taie Sword his own, Ye Tianchen thought of a method known in the apocalypse star as "blood sacrifice," using one’s own blood to infect an object, letting it carry his essence. Blood, mixed with the soul, essentially meant Ye Tianchen wanted the Taie Sword to become one with his divine spirit, thus thoroughly bringing it under his control.

A furious aura swept across the entire ten thousand square meter villa district. If Ye Tianchen’s villa hadn’t been located in such a remote area, it would have surely alarmed many people and could have even harmed the innocent. The Taie Sword, gripped firmly by Ye Tianchen and thrust straight into the earth, behaved like a wild horse defying commands, shaking continuously. The erupting Power of Might from within the sword nearly blasted Ye Tianchen away several times, but he held on tight, staying motionless.

Boom!

The Taie Sword, as if it had its own spirit, seemed to sense someone trying to subdue it. It shook and struggled continuously, emitting a hint of angry roars from within the blade. Ultimately, a blue light soared into the sky, and within this blue light, Ye Tianchen vaguely saw a figure, his back turned to him, but he could still feel the domineering power emanating from him. This person was incredibly strong, even though he was just a silhouette with his back to Ye Tianchen, the overwhelming aura was palpable.

Whoosh!

The figure in the Power of Might suddenly turned around and glanced at Ye Tianchen. Both Ye Tianchen and Lin Duan couldn’t clearly see his face, only feeling that his stature was beyond their reach. With just a palm, he struck towards Ye Tianchen’s head, causing Ye Tianchen to frown involuntarily.

"Big brother...retreat..." Lin Duan cried out in alarm.

However, instead of retreating, Ye Tianchen loosened his grip on the Taie Sword. He looked up at the figure striking towards him and cracked a slight smile, saying loudly, "Finally managed to draw you out, good timing!"

The next moment, Ye Tianchen charged upwards, leaping into the air, his fist thundering towards the figure that had struck at him. Lin Duan was dumbstruck, thinking how grand Ye Tianchen was to challenge the unimaginable power unleashed by the Taie Sword despite his severe injuries, daring to fight against the unknown force of the figure, a truly unimaginable display of dominance.

Bang, bang, bang...

The battle erupted instantly; Lin Duan stood below, holding the Seven Stars Saber, ready to assist Ye Tianchen at any moment, but he was also stunned by the sight before him. He never expected the figure, a mere projection of Power of Might, to be so formidable. Ye Tianchen fought fiercely yet couldn’t kill the figure, but what shocked Lin Duan even more was that despite his old and new injuries, Ye Tianchen could still exert such fighting power. Although he didn’t immediately kill the figure, he managed to suppress it forcefully.

Roar!

The figure roared loudly, and Ye Tianchen was blasted away. The Taie Sword on the ground trembled and suddenly flew into the hands of the figure, a blaze of light soaring into the sky, aiming directly at Ye Tianchen’s head. Ye Tianchen frowned, clenched his fists tightly, and also erupted with a blinding golden light, striking the figure.

After a thunderous explosion, dust filled the air. Lin Duan held his left hand over his forehead, his right hand gripping the Seven Stars Saber tightly, unable to look directly at the dazzling light above, unsure of Ye Tianchen’s condition...(To be continued.
