Nine Revolutions Star Technique

As the crowd at the Celestial God Sect erupted into a frenzy, Ye Qingchen had already charged into the depths of the valley.

Facing nine Celestial Saints simultaneously, all of whom were at the Celestial Saint Fifth Layer, Ye Qingchen had no choice but to temporarily avoid the edge and look for an opportune moment to counterattack.

A tremor coursed through the illusory space, as though penetrating a wall, revealing a valley with only a solitary spirit spring.

Unexpectedly, a wondrous scene emerged:

In the center was a deep, enigmatic spirit spring; to the east, a forest of towering trees; to the south, a majestic peak; to the west, a ground shrouded in swords and blades; and to the north, a raging sea of flames.

”Is this the Five Elements Array?”

Ye Qingchen squinted his eyes.

Upon entering the valley, he had sensed something amiss with the spirit spring, an array’s aura lingering. Yet, he hadn’t anticipated that beyond the spring lay a concealed grand array!

”With an array deployed, there must be a treasure! Surely Ci Yuan has come for the treasure spring too!”

Ye Qingchen’s thoughts raced.

The Celestial God Sect wouldn’t let him leave.

Either he perished within the Five Elements Array, or died at the hands of the Celestial God Sect’s members. Seizing the treasure was his only slim chance.

Without hesitation.

Ye Qingchen directly stepped into the array.

”Boom!”

As soon as he entered the array, the entire Five Elements Array began to operate immediately.

”Zheng!”

In an instant, a sword hum burst from the western region. Countless swords, previously plunged into the ground, began to resonate with a buzzing sound. Suddenly, amidst the wave of sword hums, they rose into the sky, madly sweeping toward his location.

The flying swords, numbering not less than tens of thousands, almost formed a vast expanse of flashing swords and blades.

”Hmph!”

Ye Qingchen was already prepared.

Almost at the moment the blades and swords swept toward him, he unleashed his sword stance. A vast, furious wind gathered rapidly in mid-air, transforming into flying swords, and as they formed, they surged forward to clash against the flashing blades and swords.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Wind Flying Sword collided with the array of blades and swords, erupting into a thrilling resonance of metal clashing.

The swords were directly shattered by the Wind Flying Sword, reduced to fragments, and then pulverized by the bursting Sword Qi.

Yet these fragments did not scatter to the earth, but under the power of the Five Elements Array, returned to the western region, reforming into swords once again!

”The Five Elements Array, an endless cycle—if I can’t find a way to break it, I’ll be exhausted to death here!”

Witnessing this scene.

Ye Qingchen thought darkly.

He glanced back, ”The Celestial God Sect’s people haven’t pursued, probably because of this Five Elements Array...”

As he contemplated this.

Boom!

The northern land of raging flames suddenly erupted with light, and countless fires transformed into rolling waves, surging forward. These flames, born of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, could burn gold and boil iron, and even a Celestial Saint powerhouse would be astounded.

”Not good!”

Ye Qingchen exclaimed in alarm, quickly forming a hand seal.

The surging star power surged and instantly formed a shield, blocking the flames outside his body.

”Crackle!”

Searing blasts resonated around.

The surrounding air was scorched to a vacuum, and the shield became pockmarked with cracks. Ye Qingchen gritted his teeth and retracted the shield.

The deeper he went, the stronger the flames became. Even another Celestial Saint would have been reduced to ashes by now. Ye Qingchen himself turned pale and staggered, and it was only when the flames relented that he was allowed respite.

However.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a dazzling glow erupted at the array center. The deep spirit spring there splashed with waves of shocking magnitude.

Then, amidst the stormy winds, raindrops shot out at him, striking fiercely.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Piercing whistles echoed aloud.

The raindrops carried slicing sounds, akin to a barrage of arrows, hurtling with astonishing speed, sweeping toward him like a torrential rainstorm.

”Dong!” ”Dong!” ”Dong!”

Almost instantaneously.

The wave of raindrops tore through Ye Qingchen’s shield, pounding heavily against him.

Boom!

The tiny raindrops seemed to bear the weight of a mountain, crashing with terrifying force into his body, rattling his bones with an audible crackling sound!

This level of power could effortlessly kill a Celestial Saint!

”Huh?”

Yet.

In this moment, Ye Qingchen let out a sudden cry of surprise.

For some reason.

The strange raindrops across the sky stirred an anomaly in his Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique.

”Could it be?”

Watching the approaching raindrops, Ye Qingchen’s heart thumped, and he suddenly charged.

”Dong!”

This time, without defense.

The raindrops pounded against him.

They hurled Ye Qingchen from midair to the ground below.

As the mighty force struck the earth, it left a series of massive cracks in its wake.

”Indeed!”

”The rainwater greatly enhances my cultivation in the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique!”

Feeling his body distinctly strengthened.

Ye Qingchen couldn’t help but light up with excitement.

Since leaving Abyssal Valley, he hadn’t forgotten to cultivate the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique, but progress with the Great Creation Spirit Liquid had slowed, eventually becoming negligible.

Yet, a mere encounter with the rain was equivalent to days of grueling practice in the Great Creation Spirit Liquid!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The rain continued its deluge.

Sweeping waves of rain poured down, but by this time, Ye Qingchen had completely abandoned defense, directly charging into the rain curtain. Each time the rain pummeled him down, he’d charge back into the sky.

As the cycle repeated.

”Buzz~”

Suddenly.

A glimmer of golden light emerged from Ye Qingchen’s forehead.

This was the sign of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique advancing to the 2nd Floor!

”I’ve finally reached the second floor!”

Ye Qingchen was overjoyed.

This meant that his physical strength had ascended to another level!

And with the cultivation technique reaching the second floor.

Ye Qingchen even could withstand the pouring rain, unyielding against the barrage, still advancing.

”Buzz~”

As if realizing it couldn’t overcome Ye Qingchen with rain, the Five Elements Array erupted with radiance, continuing its operation.

The endless rain abruptly turned into a brilliant green light. The forest to the east surged forth, vines like dragons shooting skyward!

However.

How could Ye Qingchen allow himself to be ensnared by the Five Elements Array any longer?

”Open!”

Just as the vines ascended but before reaching him.

Ye Qingchen fiercely pounded the void, finding a gap in the array’s workings, violently surging forth, carving a path straight through the Five Elements Array.

Charging directly into the array’s center!

He reached the heart of the spirit spring.

”What is this?”

Upon seeing the spirit spring at the center, Ye Qingchen paused, then his eyes shone with uncontainable joy.
