Supreme Sword God

Chapter 425: Chapter 424: Instant Void Swordsmanship, Descent of the Celestial Eye Emperor

Nine figures appeared beside Tong Tian.

Tong Tian remained unconcerned.

The vertical eye on his forehead could also see through illusions!

Suddenly, Tong Tian swept his spear, striking directly at one figure, followed by a loud clang.

The remaining eight figures around were shredded by the storm from this collision!

Ye Chen’s figure shot backward.

”The strength is indeed formidable, worthy of the royal family of the Celestial Eye Race!”

Ye Chen thought to himself as he stabilized his form with a burst of inner power, immediately sidestepping.

Almost the instant he turned to the side, Tong Tian’s spear grazed right past Ye Chen’s forehead.

As Tong Tian’s move missed, he immediately swept his spear horizontally, aiming at Ye Chen’s face.

At this moment, Ye Chen already stepped into the golden light again, turning into an afterimage in different locations, causing Tong Tian’s sweeping spear to miss once more.

”The afterimage I leave serves as a positioning effect. By using the Void Clarity Sword Technique, I find the spatial rifts, and with my perfected sword body, I traverse these rifts so my true physical form can choose to appear at any afterimage location.

All I need is success.

No matter how strong the insight of Tong Tian’s vertical eye, it still can’t see through my true and false transformations!

For now, the main issue is familiarizing myself with the method of positioning the afterimage, otherwise, I’ll just be a headless fly in the spatial rifts, not knowing where to end up!”

Ye Chen transformed into numerous afterimages with the perfected speed of his Heaven-Ascending Step and Vertical Earth Golden Light, while his mind raced with thoughts.

As the fight went on, Tong Tian grew increasingly frustrated.

In their brief direct collision of power earlier, he confirmed his overpowering strength against this human Asura.

But... the human known as Asura kept relying on speed to dodge.

And this speed was so quick that even if he could tell apart Asura’s afterimages from his true form, it was no use.

”Asura, can you only dodge? Have the guts to face me head-on!”

”To think you claim you want to kill me, it’s a colossal joke. With your cowardly nature, even if ten more of you came, it wouldn’t work!”

”Bastard!”

Tong Tian shouted angrily, striking down once more with his spear.

The immense power created spatial rifts, blasting away the countless afterimages around.

Ye Chen’s figure flickered, retreating to the distance, his eyes glinting.

Almost there!

Though the details weren’t fully perfected yet, the overall framework of his killing move was ready.

The detailed elements would have to be verified through repeated practice, something that couldn’t be achieved overnight.

Tong Tian stood in mid-air, spear in hand, his vertical eye glowing with an otherworldly light.

Though he received news that this Asura could see through illusions, as a pure-blooded royal of the Celestial Eye Race, his illusions were unlike ordinary ones.

As the dreamlike light enveloped Ye Chen, a brilliant glint erupted in Ye Chen’s eyes.

Tong Tian’s illusion was layered one atop another!

If his eyes hadn’t evolved from Martial Arts True Eye to Martial Arts Celestial Eye, he probably wouldn’t have been able to see through these layered changes.

Ye Chen felt a surge of gratitude.

When he helped Tian Bugui cut down the Ninth Princess of the Celestial Eye Race, luckily, she was heavily injured, otherwise, if she had used such an illusion... he, who at the time only had Martial Arts True Eye, might have perished.

In this layered illusion, Tong Tian silently closed in on Ye Chen.

When he appeared near Ye Chen, he suddenly thrust a spear at Ye Chen’s back of the head!

This spear pierced through Ye Chen’s head, exploding it!

However, Tong Tian didn’t have the moment to feel any excitement.

Because he immediately realized that this wasn’t an afterimage but an illusion!

In his overlapping illusion, not only did the human Asura evade, but countered by creating a layer of illusion!

Shock filled Tong Tian’s heart.

As the most legitimate royal of the Celestial Eye Race, possessing the strongest innate divine techniques, he ended up in this predicament.

Realizing he was caught in an illusion, Tong Tian shouted, dispersing his constructed illusion, and with his vertical eye, he finally saw everything around clearly, suddenly feeling a chill over his entire body!

A terrifying sharpness descended on his back!

Instantly, without thinking, Tong Tian swept his spear towards his rear.

”Boom!”

A massive explosion erupted.

Due to Tong Tian’s hasty response, his entire body was blasted away.

”The time is now!”

Ye Chen thought to himself, once again employing the perfect speed of the Vertical Earth Golden Light, and charged out.

Nine figures immediately surrounded the airborne Tong Tian.

With its vertical eye, Tong Tian could see through illusions and reality. Even though his form was unsteady, he abruptly gathered strength, casting his spear towards the real position of Ye Chen.

”Rumble!”

The spear shot out explosively, creating spatial reverberations with its immense power.

Ye Chen took a deep breath, with Martial Arts Celestial Eye, found a spatial rift, and slashed it with one sword.

This sword stroke instantly expanded the spatial rift.

Vast sword energies enveloped Ye Chen, and his body merged with the Sword Qi, instantly charging into that spatial rift.

Tong Tian’s thrown spear missed once more, as a sense of extreme danger grew within him.

In the next moment.

An afterimage left by Ye Chen, nearly fading, suddenly solidified again.

And this afterimage was closest to Tong Tian.

Emerging from the spatial rift, Ye Chen exploded with the utmost speed, rapidly closing in on Tong Tian.

”Instant Void Sword Technique!”

Ye Chen shouted, slashing downward with his sword.

The sword light was dazzling, its force overwhelming!

Based on Heaven-Ascending Step, Phoenix Dance of Nine Heavens, Void Clarity Sword Technique, and other inherited skills, Ye Chen had long named this move.

This time, even though Tong Tian sensed danger, it was too late to dodge or defend.

The terrifying Sword Qi landed solidly on Tong Tian.

”Boom!”

With a massive explosion, countless fragments of flesh flew in the sky.

Ye Chen’s figure was also swept away by the storm.

He Taiyuan, who had been closely monitoring the battlefield, instantly appeared beside Ye Chen, grabbing his arm. Then, the Power of Law from the Saint Realm powerhouse erupted without reservation.

”Our human Asura and Celestial Eye’s Tong Tian had a fair battle, with both sides bearing life and death responsibilities!” He Taiyuan shouted, his voice resonating with the heavens and earth.

At this moment.

A terrifying aura suddenly descended.

”Asura, you killed my son! In the next hunt, the Celestial Eye Race will fully target you alone!” An angry voice shouted, as a spiritual avatar appeared in the sky.

This spiritual avatar exuded a grand aura, wearing a crown and luxurious robes.

He Taiyuan had already brought Ye Chen to the forefront of the human ranks.

At this time, Ye Chen was covered in blood.

Having just entered the spatial rift, despite being protected by sword energy and having a perfected sword body, he was nearly crushed by the rift.

Though weak.

The momentum of Ye Chen didn’t falter for a moment.

He looked at the spiritual avatar in the sky. Since it claimed Tong Tian was its son, it was evidently the Celestial Eye Emperor, one of the Three Emperors of the Alien Race.

”Remember your words. Next hunting event, I’ll definitely participate. If your Celestial Eye Race can’t kill me, then kneel and call me your dad!”

As soon as these words fell.

The aura of the Celestial Eye Emperor’s spiritual avatar grew even more violent.

”Bah!” Ye Chen continued, ”Forget it, I couldn’t sire any of you three-eyed freaks anyway.”
