Chapter 722: Chapter 721:
"You...what kind of existence are you?"
Du Wanli was somewhat falling apart. His palms, originally about to come down and crush Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang, couldnât help but stop because, behind him, the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner had exploded, and a person bathed in golden blood had walked out from within. It was Ye Tianchen, too shocking for words. He only had the cultivation of a Mid-stage Martial Venerate. Even if he could unleash a combat power that exceeded this cultivation realm, he absolutely shouldnât have been able to withstand the shock kill of the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner. However, Ye Tianchen was like a freak, creating miracles time and time again, stunning people over and over, pushing Du Wanli to the edge of collapse.
"My will cannot be shattered by you; my path is for me to control!" Ye Tianchen walked towards Du Wanli while speaking indifferently.
At this moment, both Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang were stunned, watching Ye Tianchen, whose body was nearly split open and covered in golden blood. Tears were in their eyes. If it hadnât been to create a chance for their escape, given Ye Tianchenâs combat power and unfathomable strength, even if he wasnât a match for the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner, he wouldnât necessarily have lost to Du Wanli and could have escaped. He certainly wouldnât be in such a state now, severely injured and life hanging by a thread.
Anyone could see that although Ye Tianchen was incredibly powerful at that moment, with an invincible aura, his entire physical body was nearly torn apart. There wasnât a single part of him that was unharmed. If not for the golden blood covering him and the powerful surge of Martial Arts True Power, one could clearly see Ye Tianchenâs organs. It seemed he had paid a steep price to survive the shock kill of the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner. With his current condition, he could fall at any moment, possibly facing total annihilation. He was merely hanging on to his last breath for a final fight against Du Wanli.
Ye Tianchenâs voice echoed through the entire sky, lifting spirits and exuding an air of invincibility, causing Du Wanliâs body to tremble slightly. However, he soon regained his composure, as he felt that the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner was intact. This also meant that Ye Tianchen had merely managed to narrowly escape the shock kill of the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner and was not capable of blocking its attack. No matter how extraordinary and powerful Ye Tianchen was today, he wouldnât be able to escape his killing blow.
"Humph, boastful words. Even facing death, you still spout alarming nonsense," Du Wanli coldly huffed as he looked at Ye Tianchen.
"If you dare, come and fight me!" At that moment, Ye Tianchen completely erupted, holding nothing back and showing no signs of retreat. His entire being was surging with golden Martial Arts True Power, pushing his Martial Arts Cultivation to the limits. Each shout echoed through heaven and earth, his demonstrated combat power vastly exceeding that of his Martial Venerate Realm.
Upon hearing Ye Tianchenâs words, Du Wanli nearly exploded with rage, veins bulging on his face. He had not anticipated Ye Tianchenâs sheer disregard for him, not taking him seriously at all. Du Wanli was the Saint Heir of the Five Poison Sect, a prodigy of the Earth Ancient Martial World, and the absolute top expert among the younger generation, with a cultivation realm higher than Ye Tianchenâs, and possessing powerful treasures, including the holy artifact, Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner, capable of easily annihilating peers, not to mention a lower-cultivated martial artist.
Yet, Du Wanli lost. He was defeated. Perhaps not in terms of life and death, but in the unswerving, invincible will, on that level, he was beaten by Ye Tianchen, who had destroyed the Snake King Seal and escaped twice from under the attack of the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner. For Du Wanli, this was an indelible humiliation, a level of scorn he had never experienced before.
"I donât need to clash directly with an ant like you; the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner is enough to shock kill you. Letâs see how many moves you can block!"
Du Wanli was genuinely afraid. Perhaps his combat power was still above Ye Tianchenâs, and he had a supreme treasure like the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner in hand. Even if he could not unleash the maximum power of the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner, he still had enough to shock kill a lower realmâs Ye Tianchen. However, Ye Tianchenâs unyielding will in the face of any powerful existence, who never conceded defeat, had defeated Du Wanli. He was completely overwhelmed by Ye Tianchenâs invincible demeanor.
Whoosh!
The Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner flew towards him from a distance, summoned by Du Wanli using a secret technique. At that moment, Ye Tianchen also moved. Despite being covered in wounds and possibly on the brink of annihilation, Ye Tianchen charged at Du Wanli; he knew that if Du Wanli regained control of the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner, he, Dongfang Meng, and Tianshuang would have no chance of survival. He had to create a chance to escape when Du Wanli reclaimed the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner. With this, he had already given his utmost effort and could no longer withstand a strike from the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner, a fact clear in his own heart.
With the Divine Movement Skill pushed to its limits, Ye Tianchen transformed into a streak of golden light and rushed towards Du Wanli first. Du Wanli had never expected Ye Tianchenâs speed to be so fast; he responded not slowly either, having the peak combat power of the Late Stage Martial Venerate. It was quite unlikely for Ye Tianchen to kill Du Wanli this easily.
Bang!
This was the first time Ye Tianchen and Du Wanli had a direct confrontation. Until now, Du Wanli had avoided facing Ye Tianchen head-on, not because his combat prowess was less than Ye Tianchenâs, but because he was stunned by Ye Tianchenâs indomitable will. Deep down, he had already lost.
In a head-on collision, Ye Tianchen and Du Wanli seemed evenly matched. Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang, who were watching, could hardly believe it. Knowing that Du Wanliâs cultivation realm was at the peak of Late Martial Venerate, far surpassing Ye Tianchenâs by a significant level. Logically, such a duel would have been one-sided, with Ye Tianchen certain to lose, even possibly killed. But unexpectedly, Ye Tianchen managed to draw with Du Wanli. Both men stood their ground, their fists colliding and sending a shockwave of powerful Martial Arts True Power all around, utterly astonishing everyone.
"You are only at the Mid-stage Martial Venerate, and I possess Peak Late Stage Martial Venerate combat power. In my eyes, you are nothing but an ant to be slaughtered!" Panicked and unable to endure such a failure any longer, Du Wanli, with a clash of his palms, sent a mountain-crumbling force of Martial Arts True Power smashing towards Ye Tianchen.
It must be known that Ye Tianchenâs cultivation realm was originally not as profound as Du Wanliâs, and while resisting the Snake King Seal and the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner, he had already sustained severe injuries, his body dripping with fresh blood, his physical form on the brink of exploding and resulting in complete annihilation. Yet unexpectedly, Ye Tianchen still clashed fiercely with Du Wanli. Although he did not repel Du Wanli, he also did not lose, this unyielding combat power was truly astonishing.
"You repeatedly call others ants, now let me show you the power of ants!"
Ye Tianchen also roared, causing the sky itself to tremble, a stream of essence blood sprayed onto his right fist, suddenly, his entire right fist burst out with golden light, illuminating the entire sky. At the same time, a massive Buddha statue rose behind Ye Tianchen, standing between heaven and earth, exuding an inviolable majesty.
"Is that..." Tianshuang was stunned to see a Buddha statue appearing behind Ye Tianchen, giving an unparalleled sense of holiness and instilling a feeling of hope.
"Itâs Master Fang Zhengâs Absolute Skill, the Golden Buddha Statue. I didnât expect that Tianchen, having only seen Master Fang Zheng use it once, could comprehend it so quickly; his understanding is truly profound..." Dongfang Meng said in utter amazement.
"Golden... Body... Dharma... Form..."
Word by word, Ye Tianchenâs voice echoed through the heavens and earth. At that moment, he executed Master Fang Zhengâs Absolute Skill, which Master Fang Zheng used to counter the Sword Emperorâs Godslayer One Strike. Although its power was not as formidable as when Master Fang Zheng wielded it, it still possessed significant might.
Boom!
The immense Golden Body Dharma crushed down, leaving Du Wanli stunned. He struck his palms against the Golden Buddha Statue, and although the Martial Arts True Power impacted for tens of miles, it still could not shake it. Moving with extreme speed, Du Wanli was suppressed under the Golden Buddha Statue, destroying a mountain and trapping him beneath it.
This scene was so sudden that Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang, who initially had tears in their eyes, couldnât help but reveal a hint of a smile. Had Ye Tianchen won? He had, unbelievably, defeated Du Wanli across realms. In the Ancient Martial World, this was unimaginable. If word got out, his fame would surely shake the entire Ancient Martial World, and he would become a coveted ally for many great powers and sects.
"He won!" Tianshuang cheered.
"He won..." Dongfang Meng cried tears of joy.
It was indeed too perilous. Du Wanliâs cultivation was far superior to theirs, not to mention he possessed such sacred treasures as the Snake King Seal and the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner. Ye Tianchen fought against the odds, defeating Du Wanli by transcending boundaries? The shock he delivered was immense.
Whoosh!
Ye Tianchen had already appeared before Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang, all the golden light surrounding him had dissipated. He was severely injured and on the verge of death, yet he still forcibly mustered the strength to act. Now he could no longer maintain the "Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill" and returned to his normal state, his body covered in fresh blood, his flesh almost bursting.
Spit!
A spurt of fresh blood erupted, and Ye Tianchenâs face was incredibly pale, almost devoid of any vitality, which frightened Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang, who quickly supported him.
"Tianchen..." Dongfang Meng said anxiously.
"Ye Tianchen, are you all right?" Tianshuang also asked with concern.
"Quick, we must go, we are no match for Du Wanli, the Golden Body Dharma can only suppress him for a moment, letâs move quickly..." After Ye Tianchen finished speaking, he couldnât hold on any longer and fainted.
