The wind blew at his long black hair and bloodsoaked white robes. He looked up at the people above him with a calm smile.
“Who’s next? One-on-one or a joint attack?”
His words could be considered a provocation, but there were so many people here that it wasn’t realistic for all of them to attack together. Hence, with a signal from the most powerful Astral Realm old man, five people stood out.
One of them said, “What an arrogant kid! Don’t think that just because you’re strong, you can look down on those at the same rank as you. This old man will now deal with you!”
Saying this, he and four other people surrounded Ye Chenyuan.
Among these five people, the weakest was an early stage Nascent Soul. If Ye Chenyuan’s one-hit defeat of that late stage Nascent Soul was due to that person’s carelessness, he wouldn’t be that lucky this time around with five people coming at him at once.
Various martial techniques were launched at Ye Chenyuan.
However, Ye Chenyuan stood there unmovingly. There was a burst of white spiritual light from his body, then three shields suddenly appeared, blocking all the attacks as they spun around Ye Chenyuan.
The white stardust that spun in tandem with the Lingtian Shield contrasted with his picturesque looks, making his every move appear as elegant as a banished immortal.
The five people who had launched a joint attack on Ye Chenyuan didn’t expect him to have an immortal shield. They felt a little jealous, but immortal treasures had effective periods and it would disappear once its energy was depleted. There were five of them, what’s there for them to be afraid of? All kinds of attacks rained down on Ye Chenyuan endlessly and the Lingtian Shield spun around Ye Chenyuan faster and faster, dazzling everyone with the colourful spiritual light. It should be difficult for Ye Chenyuan to fight against such an intense attack right?
Unexpectedly, just a moment later, Ye Chenyuan suddenly made his move.
A bangle on his wrist that was inlaid with precious stones spun at high speeds before he disappeared. At the Nascent Soul stage, there wouldn’t be too much of a difference between their speeds but the thing that Ye Chenyuan had on his wrist was an immortal grade flying spirit tool for one person. Its speed was faster than the Heavenly Ship, such that these people who were at the same rank as him could only see an afterimage, after which there were a few screams.
Then, all of them had one of their arteries cut. Ye Chenyuan didn’t kill them, but the black dagger in his hand was already soaked with blood. There were specks of blood on his face that he had accidentally splattered on himself and it made him appear even paler, like snow. He was obviously a very positive person, but right now, he appeared somewhat evil.
The five covered their wounds as they retreated. As for Ye Chenyuan, he hadn’t even drawn the divine sword. At this moment, even more people had made their way here. The ones who had arrived earlier were those with higher cultivations so they were quicker, but now, those with lower cultivations had also arrived.
Upon arriving, what they saw was Ye Chenyuan crushing his opponents in a 1 vs 5 fight and they all found it hard to believe. Ye Chenyuan was clearly the youngest amongst everyone present but why was he so powerful?!
Everyone became agitated after witnessing Ye Chenyuan’s tyrannical powers. This kid’s martial arts skills were so heaven-defying, wasn’t he forcing them to gang up on him? They still cared about their reputations, alright?
The old man who was at mid stage Astral Realm didn’t want to ruin his reputation so he transmitted his voice to the others, saying, “The divine sword belongs to the Empire. Whoever can snatch the divine sword can take the hidden treasures that the founding Emperor has left behind, the Empire won’t take it.”
What he meant was that since Ye Chenyuan had obtained the divine sword, he must also have obtained the hidden treasures, so all of you go ahead and snatch it from him, the Empire only wants the divine sword. Everyone looked at each other. The hidden treasures that the founding Emperor had left behind were still worth looking forward to, so a dozen Nascent Soul experts stepped forward. These people were usually revered by their clans and didn’t participate in worldly affairs, but today, the temptation was simply too great!
Moreover, they believed that after engaging in two fights, Ye Chenyuan’s spiritual energy must have been depleted. With that being the case, did they have to be afraid of not succeeding when there were so many of them?!
So, once they stepped forward, they didn’t waste any time and immediately charged towards Ye Chenyuan.
If Ye Chenyuan was just an ordinary Nascent Soul, he definitely wouldn’t have enough spiritual energy, but since he had already unsealed four meridians, it was like having four more dantians than others.
Seeing him reach out his hand, everyone thought that he was going to draw the divine sword and they were all rather excited. They wanted to see how powerful the divine sword was!
But who knew that Ye Chenyuan wouldn’t draw the sword and instead, when they got close to him, he raised his hand up high.
Everyone was confused by that non-threatening gesture of his, but just as the dozen of them were about ten metres from Ye Chenyuan, an endless stream of thunderbolts suddenly flowed out from his palm.
What?!
Cries of alarm rang out. Everything within a hundred metre radius was enveloped by the thunderbolts. Various electric strikes and sparks could be heard and the onlookers quickly retreated. Some of the people with lower cultivations were even thrown back.
“What’s this?!”
Someone couldn’t refrain from asking. Why were these thunderbolts able to pierce through their defences? Could this perhaps be heavenly thunder?
No one could answer them, and those people who had almost attacked Ye Chenyuan all received a shock of electricity and fell from midair.
Ye Chenyuan took this chance to approach them, stealthy like a ghost.
Seeing that he was about to cut their artery with his dagger again, many of the people who were in midair made their move. Initially, there had only been a dozen people surrounding Ye Chenyuan in a joint-attack, but all of a sudden, that number became tens of people.
However, Ye Chenyuan didn’t give them the chance to get closer to him. The thunderbolts abruptly lit up before they could get any closer.
This time around, everyone felt the thunderbolt’s oppressive power. It’s heavenly thunder, this was definitely heavenly thunder! After the lightning disappeared once more, everyone was in disbelief. That’s because, there were tens of people strewn across the ground, and all of them have had one of their arteries severed by Ye Chenyuan. Within a short period of time, it was no longer possible for them to fight. But what was even scarier was that no one knew how Ye Chenyuan had done it.
He hadn’t even used the divine sword yet! What kind of monster was he?!
The old man in the air who had spearheaded all of this was very shocked. It looks like this young man wasn’t any ordinary Nascent Soul, such that even those of a similar rank weren’t his match. Would he have to make a move?
But he felt a little scared. What if he made his move and was defeated? He would lose face big time!
So, he gritted his teeth and sent out the second most powerful person, intending to take turns and tire him out.
Ye Chenyuan sneered. That greater perfection late stage Nascent Soul with a very powerful looking aura was coming towards him with his sword and although the Lone Sword was already shaking with excitement, Ye Chenyuan still didn’t draw it.
“I’ll have your life!”
As a sword cultivator, that person had an imposing aura and the sword in his hand seemed to be one with him. He couldn’t be compared to any ordinary late stage Nascent Soul.
But after exchanging a few blows with him, Ye Chenyuan suddenly laughed.
“Isn’t this quite boring?”
Everyone was confused. They were taking turns fighting him to tire him out yet he thought that this was boring?
Ye Chenyuan’s subsequent words helped them to understand what ‘arrogance’ meant. “All of you, just come at me together.”
The wind blew at his long black hair and bloodsoaked white robes. He looked up at the people above him with a calm smile.
