Supreme Lord of Towers

At this moment, the image of that mysterious figure in Ye Chen’s mind grew increasingly faint, almost like air, as if it would disappear at any moment.

However, it continued to practice the ”Thunderstorm Swordsmanship,” and all its experiences were fed back into the depths of Ye Chen’s memory, as if Ye Chen had personally gone through it.

Buzz.

At this moment, the mysterious figure suddenly transformed into countless light rain and disappeared into the void.

”It worked.” Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and a dazzling light of joy shot out, his expression ecstatic to the extreme.

At the moment the mysterious figure disappeared, his ”Thunderstorm Swordsmanship” had also just been cultivated to the fifth layer, reaching the legendary Transformation Realm.

”Master, your ’Thunderstorm Swordsmanship’ has reached the Transformation Realm. You should have hope of defeating that guy now,” the Tower Spirit said with a slight smile, feeling happy for Ye Chen.

”There’s no time to lose. I’m going out now to rescue my foster father and mother.” A cold gleam flickered in Ye Chen’s eyes, and a murderous intent surged from his entire body.

It must be known that the black-robed elder almost killed his foster mother before.

If Ye Chen hadn’t used the Evolutionary Power to enhance Xiao Hui’s heart function, she would undoubtedly have been beyond help.

So today, regardless of the cost, he would make that black-robed elder pay in blood.

Whoosh.

The next moment, a dazzling golden light shrouded Ye Chen’s body, carrying him away from where he stood.

He could only enter this tower when the Enlightenment Divine Tower was activated. Once he left this place, who knew when he could return?

However, to save his foster father and mother, he was beyond such considerations.

As long as he activated the ”Myriad Dao Human Emperor Technique,” he could use the Power of Enlightenment that was derived from the Enlightenment Divine Tower.

Whether or not he could enter the tower had minimal impact on him.

”What? That little bastard disappeared, what on earth is going on.” At this moment, deep in the Ancient Forest, the black-robed elder’s eyes were wide open, staring intently at the Low Grade Spiritual Artifact in his hand, filled with disbelief.

Just now, his Low Grade Spiritual Artifact had clearly pierced Ye Chen’s chest, stained with Ye Chen’s blood.

Yet, even though his Low Grade Spiritual Artifact had penetrated Ye Chen’s heart, Ye Chen disappeared without warning, as if he had evaporated into thin air.

How could he believe this?

”His body was clearly entwined by my Black Earth Profound Serpent, it was impossible for him to escape, how did he manage this?” The black-robed elder’s face turned extremely grim, unable to comprehend what had happened.

Buzz.

At this moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly roared out of the void and appeared ten yards away from the black-robed elder.

Then, Ye Chen’s figure emerged from the golden light, staring coldly at the black-robed elder.

Just as the Tower Spirit said, in that space, the flow of time was slower by thousands of times compared to the outside world. Even though Ye Chen had been cultivating there for half a cup of tea’s time, not even a breath had passed outside.

Even the Low Grade Spiritual Artifact in the black-robed elder’s hand remained in the same position, without moving at all.

It was as if the surrounding time had been completely frozen.

”Little bastard, I didn’t expect you to have such a Secret Treasure on you, able to instantly relocate you ten yards away. Tell me, where did you get such a Secret Treasure?” The black-robed elder’s eyes were fixed on Ye Chen, his expression both shocked and excited, shouting sternly at Ye Chen.

In his view, Ye Chen must have used some kind of Secret Treasure to evade his attack successfully.

And such a Secret Treasure, which could instantaneously relocate someone elsewhere, was something even the black-robed elder had never heard of; only the legendary Immortals could possibly refine something like this.

If the black-robed elder could seize this Secret Treasure, its utility would be beyond imagination.

”Old fool, a dead man like you doesn’t need to know these things.” Ye Chen said with a cold smile, instantly pushing the power of the Exquisite Purple Ice to its limit.

The next moment, centered on him, an area within five yards swirled with purple Cold Qi, freezing everything in its path into ice sculptures.

”Ha! With just a waste like you, have you forgotten that you almost died under my sword just now? Who gave you the courage to say such things?” The black-robed elder couldn’t help but sneer, a thick mockery lining his lips.

If not for Ye Chen relying on that Secret Treasure’s power to dodge his attack, he would have pierced Ye Chen’s heart long ago.

So regardless of how Ye Chen struggled today, the end would still be a path to death.

”Then try it.” A terrifying cold gleam shot out of Ye Chen’s eyes, and with a flash, he transformed into a humanoid fierce beast, rapidly charging toward the black-robed elder.

In terms of speed, he was actually a bit faster than the black-robed elder.

If his power weren’t far inferior to the black-robed elder’s, he wouldn’t fear this opponent at all.

But now, he had cultivated the ”Thunderstorm Swordsmanship” to the Transformation Realm, making up for the lack of power.

He simply couldn’t believe he couldn’t kill this old codger.

”You overestimate your capabilities. This time, you won’t get away from me. Die!” The elder in the black robe spoke with a ferocious expression, channeling all his Gang Qi into the Black Earth Profound Serpent, which swung its massive body like a mountain, sweeping horizontally toward Ye Chen.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle.

In a flash, the Black Earth Profound Serpent clashed with the purple Cold Qi surrounding Ye Chen’s body. The power was instantly suppressed by the Exquisite Purple Ice, leaving it with little more than the Power of Two Hundred Tigers.

However, the elder in the black robe was still absolutely confident he could crush Ye Chen.

After all, even if Ye Chen pushed the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body to its extreme and burst forth with True Qi from thirty-two Seas of Qi, at most he would only have the Power of One Hundred Fifty Tigers.

Compared to the power of the elder in the black robe, it was far inferior.

Moreover, the elder in the black robe had a remarkably sharp Low Grade Spiritual Artifact in hand, which could easily pierce through Ye Chen’s body. As long as he found an opportunity to hit Ye Chen’s vulnerable spot, Ye Chen was surely doomed.

”You’re the one who’s going to die! Thunderstorm Swordsmanship!” Just as the Black Earth Profound Serpent, controlled by the elder in the black robe, was less than a zhàng away from Ye Chen, a terrifying killing intent suddenly surged from within Ye Chen.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle.

The next moment, the True Qi surrounding his body instantly formed a purple Sword Aura, bursting forth with violent lightning that seemed to merge with Ye Chen’s right hand, striking fiercely toward the Black Earth Profound Serpent.

This Thunder Sword Aura exuded such a terrifying aura that even the elder in the black robe couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine.

”It’s Thunderstorm Swordsmanship, and it’s already reached Perfection Realm. No, this is absolutely impossible. I must be dreaming.” The elder in the black robe couldn’t help but gasp, his eyes widening in shock and disbelief.

To his knowledge, Ye Chen had acquired the Thunderstorm Swordsmanship less than two or three days ago.

Even if his Martial Arts Talent was high, reaching the Upper Grade Perfection level, it was exceedingly difficult to cultivate the Thunderstorm Swordsmanship to Entry Level in such a short time.

But now, Ye Chen had cultivated this swordsmanship to the Perfection Realm.

It was like a whisper from a mythical tale.

Had he not witnessed it with his own eyes, the elder in the black robe would never have believed it.

With a loud bang.

The next moment, the two forces clashed fiercely, sending out a deafening explosion that caused the surrounding trees to tremble.

The massive body of the Black Earth Profound Serpent was immediately shaken back by Ye Chen, with a huge wound appearing on its waist.

Even the elder in the black robe suffered from the backlash of this force, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

”Indeed, the Perfection Realm of Thunderstorm Swordsmanship still couldn’t kill this old codger. After all, my cultivation compared to his is vastly inferior,” Ye Chen said, frowning.

Thunderstorm Swordsmanship is, after all, a Yellow Level Middle Grade Martial Arts.

When executed by a True Qi Realm Cultivator, its power naturally can’t compare to that of a Qi Dao Master in the Gang Qi Realm.

Even if Ye Chen had opened thirty-two Seas of Qi, his True Qi’s power still couldn’t match the Gang Qi within a First Layer strongman of the Gang Qi Realm.

Even if Thunderstorm Swordsmanship is cultivated to Perfection Realm, if executed by a First Layer Qi Dao Master of the Gang Qi Realm, the power would undoubtedly be far greater than Ye Chen’s.

Thus, relying solely on the Perfection Realm Thunderstorm Swordsmanship, Ye Chen simply couldn’t kill the elder in the black robe.

Even though the opponent’s power was suppressed by the Exquisite Purple Ice, when employing Bloodline Power, it could still rival a Fourth Layer strongman of the Gang Qi Realm.

Meanwhile, even if Ye Chen pushed the power of the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body to its extreme and combined it with the Perfection Realm of Thunderstorm Swordsmanship, his combat power could only burst up to the Power of Two Hundred Tigers.

Such power was still too weak to kill the elder in the black robe.

”Truly, this Yellow Level Middle Grade Martial Arts, after being cultivated to Perfection Realm, its power indeed lies monstrous! Sadly, your cultivation is indeed too weak, too weak. Even if the Thunderstorm Swordsmanship is cultivated to Perfection Realm, you are fundamentally no match for me. Now, let my Bloodline Secret Technique send you to hell.” After a brief shock, the elder in the black robe couldn’t help but sneer.

Roar.

The next moment, the Black Earth Profound Serpent behind him suddenly emitted an earthy yellow light, turning into an indestructible layer of scales that covered the Black Earth Profound Serpent.

This was the Bloodline Secret Technique of the elder in the black robe, which could strengthen both the defense and attack power of the Black Earth Profound Serpent.

That a True Qi Realm ant like Ye Chen could force him to use his most powerful killing technique was something to be proud of, even in death.

”Master, be careful. Even suppressed by the Exquisite Purple Ice, the Black Earth Profound Serpent can still burst out with the Power of Two Hundred Fifty Tigers. You absolutely must not be careless,” the Tower Spirit’s expression changed slightly as he quickly warned Ye Chen.

You must know, even if Ye Chen executed the Perfection Realm of Thunderstorm Swordsmanship and combined it with the power of the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body, he could only burst out with the Power of Two Hundred Tigers, absolutely only to be crushed by the elder in the black robe.

If he doesn’t execute the Transformation Realm of Thunderstorm Swordsmanship, the consequences would be unimaginable.

”Old codger, let us end this,” Ye Chen said coldly, staring at the elder in the black robe. The True Qi surrounding his body immediately transformed into dazzling lightning, finally condensing into a Thunder Sword five zhàng in length, which enveloped Ye Chen completely.

”Could this be... the Transformation Realm?” The elder in the black robe’s pupils suddenly contracted, his face turning paler than the dead, and even his entire body trembled violently.
