Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 854: Chapter 853: ”His Boldness, His Courage

”Ye Tianchen?”

”Is that you?”

”Didn’t expect it, did you? There’s a path to heaven that you don’t take, but you charge into hell where there’s no entrance. Saves us the trouble of looking for you. Prepare to die!”

Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui were absolutely surprised. In the dead of night, Ye Tianchen had come to Nine Dragon Mountain to kill them. In truth, they bore no deep grudges against Ye Tianchen; there was no deep-seated hatred. It was only because Ye Tianchen had sent some people to track them, and once discovered, they had killed over a dozen of their trackers by ripping out their hearts. They were extremely aggressive and domineering, believing that as martial artists, no one in the mortal world could challenge them, nor would anyone dare provoke them. If they had not thought of Ye Tianchen as just an ant, they would have already taken action to kill him!

Standing high above Nine Dragon Mountain, using powerful divine thought to eavesdrop on the conversation of Hu Changhe and his gang, was Ye Tianchen. When he arrived, he secretly asked Wuxue for information about the last known location of the dozen or so brothers he had sent out. They were last reported at Nine Dragon Mountain. Clearly, there was something off about this place. It’s not somewhere anyone dared to meddle with. If it was just some petty black force, no matter how strong, the state would have dealt with it. Why was Nine Dragon Mountain left untouched, even as the entire Capital City’s development avoided it? There must be a reason.

Three golden fist rays shot down, aimed separately at Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui. The three were startled; they hadn’t expected the young man in the sky to wield such powerful combat strength. It appeared his cultivation realm was at least at the mid-stage Martial Venerate, truly surprising.

However, as surprised as they were, Hu Changhe and Qin Mingshan had long stepped into the mid Martial Venerate realm, and remained there for many years. As for Yang Gui, he was at the early-stage Martial Venerate. Therefore, for them, Ye Tianchen, with just a mid-stage Martial Venerate cultivation, did not pose a fatal threat. They were confident they could kill Ye Tianchen here.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Three muffled sounds echoed. Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui each launched a powerful martial arts true power, scattering Ye Tianchen’s golden fist rays. Ye Tianchen knew Hu Changhe and Qin Mingshan possessed considerable cultivation strength, but he hadn’t expected that Yang Gui, a regular person, could achieve early-stage Martial Venerate in just a few decades after becoming a martial artist. Clearly, this world lacks no cultivation geniuses.

Despite this, Ye Tianchen remained unfazed. He knew killing Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui wouldn’t be easy. They weren’t your typical ancient martial artists nor mere superpower users of this world, but rather martial artists like him. Among the three, two had cultivation realms matching his own. Even though he could overpower martial artists of the same generation, instantly killing these three was out of the question.

After one exchange, Ye Tianchen descended onto Nine Dragon Mountain. He had no concern about Hu Changhe’s gang escaping or the intense battle impacting the surroundings, as the entire Nine Dragon Mountain was enveloped by his ”Holy Heaven Prison.” This ensured Hu Changhe’s group couldn’t escape and also prevented the battle from affecting innocent civilians in the Capital City.

After the first clash, Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui all wore serious expressions. They never expected a young man of barely twenty to have reached mid Martial Venerate realm and fight them to a standstill. It was absolutely unbelievable, truly making him a prodigy of heaven.

”Ye Tianchen, daring to send people to spy on us is a capital crime!” Hu Changhe coldly said.

”Did you think we were just ordinary black force gangs? We’re powerful martial artists. Now that you’re here, don’t think you’ll walk away alive!” Qin Mingshan said viciously.

”Have you been eavesdropping on our conversation all this time?” Yang Gui asked in a deep voice.

Buzz!

Ye Tianchen remained silent. His divine thought flared, and martial arts true power surged from his Dantian, enveloping his whole body in a golden aura. This demonstrated his adept control of the ”Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill,” and with clenched fists, he activated the Vajra Divine Fist, swinging golden fist rays at Hu Changhe and his companions, ready to kill.

Seeing that Ye Tianchen paid no mind to their words, Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui were all infuriated. In the mortal world, they reigned like emperors of underground forces, always standing above others. Even when confronted with martial artists, they felt no fear. On the current Earth, unless they encountered those ancient beings who had secluded themselves for years, their Martial Venerate’s cultivation was enough to dominate the field. No one had ever dared show them such disdain as Ye Tianchen did, making him the first person they were eager to kill.

The battle commenced. Ye Tianchen went head-to-head with Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui using the powerful combination of ”Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill” and ”Vajra Divine Fist,” along with his endless martial arts true power. He neither gained the upper hand nor did he succumb. The fight was intense and filled with hot-blooded fervor. In just about an hour, Nine Dragon Mountain was torn in half, leaving only a truncated peak. If not for Ye Tianchen’s ”Holy Heaven Prison” covering the entire mountain, the Capital City might have been flattened. The destructive energy could easily topple a major city.

”You little brat, I want you to know that if I want to kill you, it’s as simple as crushing an ant!”

Hu Changhe was the first to strike, unleashing an astonishing combat force. His entire body surged with Martial Arts True Power, his eyes filled with a blood-red killing intent. The seals in his hands kept altering, sending forth complex runes that made Ye Tianchen frown. Hu Changhe’s nickname was Nine-Life Cat, rumored to never die no matter the severity of his injuries and heal instantly. Ye Tianchen speculated that Hu Changhe, unlike Zhang Ruotong, must have mastered some Ancient Divine Arts to heal instantly.

Slap!

A giant palm descended towards Ye Tianchen, covering the sky and earth, while Hu Changhe shouted aloud:

”Soul Destruction Palm!”

Ye Tianchen’s mind moved, standing still as he slowly raised his right hand. A golden Martial Arts True Power gradually appeared in his palm, expanding at a tortoise-like pace, advancing to meet Hu Changhe’s descending massive palm.

”This kid is certainly no match for Hu Changhe; we don’t need to intervene!” Qin Mingshan said with a sneer as he saw Ye Tianchen’s slow strike.

”He really doesn’t know his place, daring to come here is simply courting death!” Yang Gui said with equal confidence and laughed.

Bang!

A muffled sound echoed as Hu Changhe and Ye Tianchen’s palms collided, their Martial Arts True Power driving the impact. Initially, Hu Changhe thought Ye Tianchen’s slow strike was due to his exhaustion in battling him, but when their palms met, Hu Changhe’s heart sank; he had underestimated Ye Tianchen’s strength.

Boom!

Hu Changhe retreated ten steps before gradually stabilizing his stance, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. He had underestimated Ye Tianchen’s strength and thus was shaken by Ye Tianchen’s palm force.

”Heavenly Shocking Palm, are you from the Yaochi Sect?” Hu Changhe asked coldly.

”No need for many questions. I have only one purpose for coming here today, and that is to kill you three!” Ye Tianchen said very calmly.

”Hahaha, you intend to hide your identity. You’re not from the Yaochi Sect because they never accept male disciples. Which sect’s disciple are you really from?” Hu Changhe looked at Ye Tianchen with great doubt.

Ye Tianchen didn’t answer, but instead strode forward. The golden Martial Arts True Power in his right hand had reached a bursting point. He knew that to kill the three, he must take them by surprise before they fully understood his combat strength; otherwise, it would be a tough battle and a prolonged struggle.

What shocked Ye Tianchen was that he intentionally executed the ”Heavenly Shocking Palm” slowly, deliberately using a slow pace to counter Hu Changhe, aiming to make him lower his guard and kill him. However, he did not expect Hu Changhe’s cultivation to be profound, his internal Martial Arts True Power abundant, and despite seemingly being severely injured, he instantly recovered, which was too strange. Could he really be a Nine-Life Cat?

”You don’t know your place. I have to say you have some combat strength, but there’s no way you can kill us three. You’ve always engaged in close combat with us. Do you believe your physical body is very formidable? Then let’s see how our physiques compare!” Qin Mingshan thought for a moment, deliberately taunting Ye Tianchen.

Tear!

Seeing Ye Tianchen dare to come over after he spoke, Qin Mingshan was secretly proud. With a forceful gesture, he ripped his upper clothes, revealing extremely solid muscles that appeared very terrifying, especially the spine on Qin Mingshan’s back, exceptionally large and robust, resembling a dragon’s spine. No wonder his nickname was Heavenly Dragon, known for his formidable physique.

At this moment, Qin Mingshan aimed to use his most confident and believed unmatched physical strength to smash Ye Tianchen to death with his fists. He didn’t expect that after saying those words, Ye Tianchen would brazenly come over, wanting to engage in close combat with him, instantly feeling overjoyed, as though his scheme had succeeded.
