”Let’s do it together!”

When Ye Tianchen heard Wang Luanxiang’s words, he was momentarily stunned because he felt that Wang Luanxiang was truly running out of Martial Arts True Power. It was hard for her to hold on, which could be heard in her voice. However, her stubborn nature, her daring and courage to face life and death, determined to fight to the death against the three powerful creatures, truly made Ye Tianchen admire her!

The light of the Red Cloud Treasure Mirror shone brilliantly, and the barrier of Chaos Qi was indestructible, forcibly blocking the Monkey, the Vermilion Bird, and the Old Mystical Turtle. What made Ye Tianchen regret was that when he alone was resisting the attacks from these three monsters, he couldn’t hold on. The two giant hands condensed from Chaos Qi were broken free by the Divine Monkey. Although this monkey was seriously injured, covered in blood, the Vicious Aura became even more severe. Its imposing momentum was truly shocking. This monkey was indeed an anomaly, destined to become one of the formidable opponents against whom Ye Tianchen and others would compete for the Martial Arts Peak in the future.

Currently, the situation was that Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang were using the power of two Supreme Treasures, holding off the assaults of the Divine Monkey, the Vermilion Bird, and the Old Mystical Turtle. Both parties were in a stalemate in terms of power. If one side couldn’t hold on, the opponent’s Slaughter Aura would sweep through, resulting in complete annihilation. The stalemate persisted in mid-air. Now, as long as any additional force appeared to assist either side, it could play a crucial role in achieving a decisive victory.

”Are you just going to stand by and watch? This is the best opportunity to eliminate these three monsters. If you miss it, you will be enslaved, living without dignity or honor. Why not give it a try?” Wang Luanxiang spoke, looking at some martial artists below.

Unexpectedly, no one acted. This was something Wang Luanxiang had not anticipated. Her heart felt a painful stab, not because of injuries from the three formidable monsters, but from the cowardice and fear of death of these martial artists. Initially, Wang Luanxiang thought that the reason these martial artists, including her own Wang family, did not dare to act rashly or engage in a death battle with the three powerful creatures, was because they had calculated that these monsters were indeed too powerful. Even one of them was enough to overpower them, let alone three. The disparity in strength was an undeniable fact, and charging forward would mean being cannon fodder and death. Their reluctance to act was understandable; after all, no matter how strong martial artists are, life comes only once, and who isn’t afraid of dying?

However, what disappointed Wang Luanxiang to the extreme was that even now, when she and Ye Tianchen were desperately holding off these three monsters, both sides’ powers were concentrated into a stalemate. Just a little more strength on either side, and it would sweep the other side. The Vermilion Bird, Divine Monkey, and Old Mystical Turtle had no assistance left, while she and Ye Tianchen had many martial artists on their side. With three major legacies present, these martial artists were not weak. Just by stepping in, these three formidable creatures could be killed for sure. Yet, not a single person dared to act, not a single one dared to step forward, because they were all frightened by the three formidable creatures, scared that if they couldn’t kill them, they would be punished, and their entire families or sects would be exterminated!

”Don’t put your hopes on them; we must rely on ourselves. Each person has their own ambitions!” Ye Tianchen advised, glancing at Wang Luanxiang.

Wang Luanxiang shook her head, then looked at Ye Tianchen with a firm gaze, indicating that she would certainly fight alongside him, to repel these three formidable monsters, even if it meant complete annihilation of body and spirit, she would not retreat one step!

”The Red Cloud Treasure Mirror is an object almost approaching the Emperor’s Artifact; if it were refined by a Great Divine Ability User, it could likely leap to become an Emperor’s Artifact suppressing the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Unfortunately, your cultivation is too weak to unleash its true power!” The Vermilion Bird said, surging with Fire Power.

”The Holy Heaven Prison is a Supreme Treasure, rumored to surpass ordinary Emperor’s Artifacts. It can control the entire Martial Arts World, holding the universe from above and shaking the Heavenly Vault below. Precisely for this reason, no one in later generations has comprehended its true power. Otherwise, you would have already soared to the sky, invincible under heaven!” The Old Mystical Turtle, with Black Order Divine Chains constantly surging from its back, coldly regarded Ye Tianchen and spoke.

The Divine Monkey was already seriously injured, yet its War Blood was burning, incredibly astonishing. Surely, it was as the Little Zhu Yan had predicted, this monkey was a rare genius born to the Divine Monkey Clan, with extraordinary talent and rapid cultivation, plus having absorbed a drop of blood from Little Zhu Yan’s father in his youth, which was like adding wings to a tiger, undergoing a qualitative transformation, becoming immensely powerful. Even in its injured state, it was still overflowing with Vicious Aura, persistently wielding the Desolate Sky Halberd, assaulting the barrier of Chaos Qi formed by Ye Tianchen’s Martial Arts True Power.

”Two such Supreme Treasures could barely hold the three of us, truly shameful. If they were in my hands, I would have swept the whole world long ago. You are unworthy of having such Treasures; go die, both Treasures are mine!” The Divine Monkey howled to the sky.

Indeed, Wang Luanxiang’s understanding of the Red Cloud Treasure Mirror and Ye Tianchen’s use of the Holy Heaven Prison had hardly unleashed their true power, not even a tenth of it. Such astonishing Treasures that once suppressed the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, locking down the entire Martial Arts World, were so powerful! Not to mention unleashing their full power, even a tenth of it would be enough to sweep through most of the Martial Arts World, rendering the Divine Monkey, Vermilion Bird, and Old Mystical Turtle insignificant.

Gradually, Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang found it difficult to hold on. The cultivation time of the three formidable creatures exceeded theirs, their Cultivation Realms were more profound, and with it being three against two, the odds of victory for Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang were very low. Moreover, both had already been through a great battle, consuming considerable Martial Arts True Qi. Now, wielding two Supreme Treasures, the consumption of Martial Arts True Power was unimaginable. If it were any other martial artist, they would have long since died from exhaustion of True Power; they wouldn’t have lasted this long.

Puff!

Puff!

Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang both almost couldn’t hold on any longer, each spitting out a mouthful of blood. This was a sign that the Martial Arts True Qi in their bodies was exhausted, putting their lives in grave danger. Meanwhile, the Vermilion Bird, the Divine Monkey, and the Old Xuan Turtle, these three formidable creatures, were continuously urging their power, bombarding the Red Cloud Treasure Mirror and the Chaos Qi barrier, causing earth-shattering tremors. These three monsters were indeed terrifyingly powerful.

”Go, I know you can escape, don’t worry about me!” Wang Luanxiang glanced at Ye Tianchen and said weakly.

”We haven’t lost yet, we can still fight!” Ye Tianchen said with unshakeable determination.

”It’s useless, we no longer have enough power to maintain our situation. Defeat is only a matter of time. Go, you are much stronger than me, you shouldn’t die here!” Wang Luanxiang looked at Ye Tianchen and said.

”Are you giving up and abandoning your beliefs too? That’s not like you!” Ye Tianchen said.

Wang Luanxiang shook her head and then looked at the gradually fracturing crimson glow and the approaching pressure of Chaos Qi. She couldn’t help but say, ”My belief will never change, ever. But we must admit the gap in our power. You don’t have to die here!”

Bang!

Just as Wang Luanxiang’s voice fell, with a blast, she no longer had the strength to maintain the power of the Red Cloud Treasure Mirror. The red glow she had previously launched was shattered, and she was sent flying backward. However, there was no fear of death in her eyes. Instead, there was a sense of relief, as if being able to persist and die for her beliefs was not frightening. She had done everything she should and wanted to do. Fighting and living for her beliefs was so much better than living without dignity and guts!

Rumble!

The moment the crimson glow was shattered and Wang Luanxiang was flung aside, the Chaos Qi barrier driven by Ye Tianchen pressed down. The three monsters were too powerful. Without the shock-killing of Wang Luanxiang’s crimson glow, the Vermilion Bird, the Divine Monkey, and the Old Xuan Turtle could all concentrate their efforts on Ye Tianchen’s Chaos Qi. Though the Chaos Qi was indestructible and could not be easily broken, it was still pushed down toward Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang by these three formidable monsters.

Bang!

An earth-shattering explosion shattered the entire sky, with void fissures appearing everywhere, though they vanished in a flash. Everyone was left dumbfounded, their faces pale from the shock of such overwhelming power. Anyone stepping forward would surely face death. What would happen to Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang?

When the dust settled, it was seen that Ye Tianchen shielded Wang Luanxiang beneath him, and behind him, only a small portion of Chaos Qi blocked the power of slaughter. Half of his body was shattered, dripping with blood. Wang Luanxiang was stunned; she hadn’t expected that at this moment, Ye Tianchen would so recklessly protect her.

”You... why are you so foolish? With your strength, you could escape. Why...” Wang Luanxiang couldn’t help but say.

”You fought by my side, as a woman, with such courage and spirit. I have great admiration for that. At such a critical moment, how could I not act like a gentleman!” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

”You...” Wang Luanxiang was taken aback, something deep within her seemed to be stirred.

And Ye Tianchen stood up again; even though half of his body was shattered, his conviction couldn’t be stopped. Like Wang Luanxiang, he would rather fight to the death than live without dignity and courage. He wouldn’t just survive or stand by watching as hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in Linxian City were brutally devoured and slaughtered; he couldn’t. The only choice was a deadly fight, to fight until death! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
