Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

At this moment, the body of the Profound Armor Combat Puppet had become unimaginably tough.

The power of a First Layer Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator was completely incapable of harming it!

BOOM!

The Profound Armor Combat Puppet withstood Elder Lin’s assault and threw another punch at him.

Elder Lin hurriedly activated his various magical artifacts and talismans, but they could only offer temporary protection.

As the Profound Armor Combat Puppet relentlessly pummeled him, his various life-saving Spiritual Objects were rapidly depleted.

’Damn this kid!’

’If I had known he already controlled the Profound Armor Combat Puppet and had repaired it to this extent, I would have fled on the spot. Why would I still be tangled up with him here?!’

Elder Lin was both shocked and furious.

He could clearly feel his stamina rapidly draining, and the Spiritual Power flowing through his meridians seemed on the verge of running dry.

Even though he continuously drew in Spiritual Qi from the surrounding world to replenish his reserves, it clearly wasn’t enough to keep up with his consumption rate.

Ye Chen, however, sneered at the thought.

’There are no do-overs in this world. What’s the use of regret now?’

’Besides, didn’t this old bastard stick around only because he saw how weak I was and thought I’d be an easy target?’

’Who could have imagined that I, someone merely at the Peak of the Spiritual Sea Realm, would possess the strength to fight a Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator?’

Just as Elder Lin was about to give out and prepare to force an escape!

A streak of black light suddenly shot out from the cave, viciously slamming into Elder Lin!

As if struck by lightning, Elder Lin’s protective Spiritual Power instantly shattered. His face filled with shock and fury as the powerful attack sent him stumbling forward.

Even Ye Chen was momentarily stunned and glanced toward the cave.

From the pitch-black cave, a pair of eyes, gleaming with a spectral light, slowly emerged.

By the daylight filtering in, Ye Chen could see it clearly: a gigantic python. It flicked its tongue, its body radiating a powerful aura. The black light from before had clearly been its doing!

However, it appeared to be somewhat exhausted.

”You damn beast...” Elder Lin seethed, gritting his teeth. ”I was so close! So close to slaughtering you! How could I have given you the chance to ambush me like this!”

Just then, the Profound Armor Combat Puppet’s attack descended.

But Elder Lin no longer had the strength to mount an effective defense. He had just been hit by the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python’s sneak attack and hadn’t even had a chance to catch his breath.

BOOM!

The Profound Armor Combat Puppet’s fist slammed mercilessly into Elder Lin.

Its terrifying power, comparable to the Third Layer of the Divinity Transformation Realm, completely obliterated Elder Lin’s heavily injured body!

Even his Divine Soul within didn’t have time to escape!

A Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator, fallen on the spot!

Watching this from nearby, Song Yubing was utterly astonished, her heart in turmoil.

’That was a Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator.’

’Across the entire eastern dynasty, such a person would be considered a pillar of strength.’

’And yet, the young man before me, someone at the mere Ninth Layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, has actually slain a true Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator.’

’Even though there were many twists and turns, and that Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator had clearly just broken through, for this to be accomplished by a young man in the Spirit Sea Realm... it’s enough to shake the world, a truly unprecedented feat!’

’Yes, Ye Chen killed a Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator outside the Dragon Prison Cave before, but that was with the help of the cave’s great formation. This is completely different.’

’This time, Ye Chen relied entirely on his own hidden cards.’

’Even without the giant python’s ambush, Elder Lin would have inevitably suffered a crushing defeat anyway.’

After the Profound Armor Combat Puppet killed Elder Lin, Ye Chen immediately collected the man’s Storage Ring.

Just then, the giant python hiding in the cave suddenly turned to flee.

Seeing this, the realm spirit quickly said, ”That’s a Sky-Swallowing Giant Python! Its body has materials you’ll need to continue repairing the combat puppet!”

”The Sky-Swallowing Giant Python is an extremely powerful demonic beast! That one has clearly reached the Divinity Transformation Realm. Most ordinary Divinity Transformation Realm cultivators would be no match for it!”

”It’s so dangerous. Are we really going to provoke it?” Song Yubing asked nervously.

But when she turned to look, she saw a dark-golden figure had already rushed into the cave.

Before long, the Profound Armor Combat Puppet reappeared at the cave entrance. It trudged forward with heavy steps, slowly approaching them.

Behind it, it was dragging the massive body of a giant python, dozens of meters long!

The giant python was covered in wounds. It had clearly fought the Profound Armor Combat Puppet but was ultimately outmatched and subdued.

At this moment, the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python seemed to realize its death was imminent. Its eyes flickered with a spectral light, and its massive serpentine body twitched slightly, as if a powerful force was surging within.

The next moment, however, the Profound Armor Combat Puppet violently stomped on the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python.

Reeling from the sudden, heavy blow, the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python coughed up a stream of fresh blood. Its mouth gaped open as its eyes gradually dimmed.

Ye Chen had clearly noticed its subtle movements. He wasn’t about to give it a chance to launch a final, desperate counterattack and finished it off completely.

”So, the young master of the Cyan Ape Tribe was probably here because he coveted this Sky-Swallowing Giant Python’s body. He must have wanted to use it to repair the Profound Armor Combat Puppet.”

”Too bad for him. While that old Divinity Transformation Realm expert was busy fighting the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python, he ended up falling to us first. Even his Profound Armor Combat Puppet fell into my hands.”

Ye Chen remarked calmly, gazing at the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python’s corpse.

’No wonder the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python finally revealed itself and ambushed that old man.’

’If we hadn’t killed Gu Tianyu and drawn the old man’s attention, the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python would most likely have been killed by him.’

’That’s a life-or-death grudge. Seeing its mortal enemy about to die, the beast couldn’t resist. It decisively launched a sneak attack. It got its revenge, but it ended up dying as well.’

”This Sky-Swallowing Giant Python must have just finished its Molting Stage and broken through to the Divinity Transformation Realm.”

”Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so weak. It nearly lost to a human cultivator of the same realm.”

”The Sky-Swallowing Giant Python must have exhausted a great deal of energy fighting that old man, which is why we were able to deal with it so easily.”

The realm spirit understood the situation after just a casual glance at the Sky-Swallowing Giant Python.

Her casual analysis further surprised Song Yubing, who was standing nearby.

’One, a young man with a low cultivation level but heaven-defying combat power, capable of sweeping aside all the geniuses of his generation.’

’The other, a young woman whose cultivation level is unclear and who I’ve never seen fight, yet she’s incredibly knowledgeable. She seems to understand everything about the world and can explain things with perfect clarity.’

’What an interesting pair Ye Chen and the realm spirit make.’
