Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1207: Chapter 1206: Blocking the Passage, Deep Into the Lair!

As soon as Ye Chen finished speaking.

The next moment.

He took a step forward and instantly disappeared from where he stood.

The three old men surrounding Ye Chen looked at each other bewildered.

They sensed the traces of Ye Chen’s movement, yet before they could react, Ye Chen had already... fled!

”Chase!”

One of them shouted.

The three figures also instantly disappeared from the spot.

In the blink of an eye, they reappeared in an area dozens of miles away, locking onto Ye Chen’s aura once more.

”Ye Chen, no matter how fast you are, you cannot escape our pursuit!”

The old man who shouted threw a punch, his powerful force crumbling everything in its path toward Ye Chen.

Ye Chen’s mind stirred.

The power of three divine beings within him merged with his body.

Using divine power, he once again executed the Heaven-Ascending Steps: Inches Away from the Ends of the Earth. This time, with one step, he traversed an even farther distance.

The three terrifying presences controlling the Evil Spirit Forbidden Area once again exchanged glances and then pursued him frantically.

A moment later, when Ye Chen was caught up to again, he felt a wave of frustration.

Even using divine power to perform the Heaven-Ascending Steps, he couldn’t shake them off. With gritted teeth, he fused six more divine powers into his body, drastically increasing his speed to shake off the three old men chasing him.

But...

It wasn’t long before.

They caught up again.

Ye Chen: ”...”

Helpless, he could only perform the Heaven-Ascending Steps again to flee.

”As long as I’m in the forbidden zone, I can’t hide; they can always find me. Even though I now have divine power to propel the Heaven-Ascending Steps and a bit of the ’existence’ mantra’s insight, I still can’t maintain this speed indefinitely.

Therefore... I need to find a way to avoid these old men’s senses!”

Ye Chen began to think.

Soon, a brilliant light flashed in his eyes.

Before, digging a tunnel underground in the forbidden area could evade the senses of those old men.

Clearly.

The soil and rocks in the forbidden zone had special properties.

With this thought, Ye Chen raised his hand, and with powerful force, swept up a massive amount of broken soil and rocks, wrapping himself tightly, transforming into a small hill.

Sure enough.

Half a moment later.

The old men still hadn’t found him again.

The three old men pursuing Ye Chen were now gathered together, so angry that smoke was almost coming out of their noses.

Chasing and chasing, they actually lost him!

”Could he have burrowed underground again?” one of them said.

”Then let’s overturn the forbidden zone’s surface again!” another said viciously.

The next moment, their power swept across the entire forbidden zone, overturning the surface that had just been upturned once again!

At this moment.

Ye Chen, hiding within the soil and rocks, immediately controlled the little hill, flying into the air...

A moment later.

The rolling of the soil and rocks stopped.

Ye Chen controlled the little hill back down to the ground.

The three old men searching for Ye Chen were stunned.

Their senses swept the entire forbidden zone, unable to find Ye Chen.

Their power overturned the ground that their senses could not penetrate, yet they still couldn’t find Ye Chen.

It was as if Ye Chen vanished into thin air!

”He must still be hiding in the forbidden zone!”

”In that case, let’s block the entrance to the forbidden zone. I don’t believe he won’t come out!”

”That’s right, after all, we can’t leave the forbidden zone for now. It doesn’t matter where we’re inside; we’ll block the exit, let him hide here forever if he dares!”

The three immediately took action after speaking.

When the three of them appeared at the forbidden zone’s entrance.

They happened to encounter two others who were chasing Chi Mutian.

”Where’s Chi Mutian?”

”He escaped.”

”How did he escape?”

”Someone protected him. Just now, a force took Chi Mutian away. If I guessed right, it should be a secret technique of the Heaven-Stealing Lineage.”

Upon hearing this.

An exclamation burst forth.

”The Heaven Stealing Elder is still alive?”

”Probably... yes.”

”What about Ye Chen, who you were pursuing?”

”He’s hiding. He should still be in the forbidden zone, but we can’t find him, so we’ll just block here.”

”Then let’s... block here together. The Fallen God Arrow is gone, and it’s likely in Ye Chen’s hands. Even if it’s not, the secrets he holds are just as valuable!”

Five terrifying beings from the previous era gathered together, standing guard at the forbidden zone’s entrance.

Not long after.

Ye Chen covertly arrived at the tunnel entrance.

Sensing briefly, he was dumbfounded.

”Five old geezers are blocking me here!” Ye Chen cursed softly, then silently carried the small hill away.

For now, there’s no way out.

Even in a one-on-one fight, he wasn’t their match, let alone five together.

”Since you won’t let me out, don’t blame me for being unkind. I’ll let you experience Tong Dabao’s despair!”

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, speaking to himself, then carried the small hill towards the source of the black tide.

He intended to see what the lair of these five old men looked like.

If possible, he would destroy their lair!

......

At the source of the black tide.

Endless darkness roiled.

Several figures sat cross-legged within.

They were the Great Emperors of the former Evil Spirit Camp.

Emperor of Wutian, Hentian Emperor, Jue Tian Emperor, Heaven-Destroying Emperor.

Originally, there was also a Heaven-Breaking Emperor.

However... the Heaven-Breaking Emperor was rather unfortunate and had long been slain by Ye Chen.

At this moment.

The aura from these four evil spirit powerhouses was extremely intense, evidently impacting the divine realm!

”Wutian, you’re already a demigod; you’re certainly the fastest to become a god,” said Hentian Emperor, with a tone of envy.

”Yes, among us, Wutian has always been the strongest, and his speed to becoming a god is also much faster than ours,” followed Jue Tian Emperor.

Heaven-Destroying Emperor: ”At the current rate, Wutian, you will succeed in at most half a month. For me, I might need another year or so.”

Emperor of Wutian smiled faintly and said, ”You don’t need to hurry. Now that the forbidden zone is sealed, we have nothing else to do, just focus on breaking through. This time, the five Venerable Lords are helping us become gods; they must have foreseen something major happening. Without divine strength, we’re insignificant.”

”By the way, what happened today? The whole forbidden zone is in turmoil...”

”This is undoubtedly the work of the five Venerable Lords. Whatever they want to do is not for us to speculate. Don’t think too much; just cultivate well. If we don’t advance to the divine realm, we’ll definitely be abandoned by the Venerable Lords!” stated Emperor of Wutian.

”That’s true.”

”Let’s focus on cultivating then.”

”Wait!” Hentian Emperor suddenly shouted, ”Do you notice anything unusual?”

Emperor of Wutian frowned, asking, ”What’s unusual?”

Hentian Emperor pointed not far away and said, ”Since when has there been an extra mountain over there?”
