Chapter 1498: Chapter 1497: Complete Success? Defying Heaven Yet Again?

[Begging for subscriptions, begging for New Year’s money!]

Pfft!

Pfft!

Pfft!

Blood splattered everywhere. Inside the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” Ye Tianchen sat cross-legged. Visible to the naked eye, his body continuously fractured from the inside out, as if it were about to explode. Anyone witnessing this scene would surely be startled!

”Damn, these two forces are fundamentally incompatible. Even with such a compromising method, it’s still very difficult to manage!” Ye Tianchen was unnervingly shocked in his heart. Continuing on like this, he couldn’t avoid the fate of his form and spirit being annihilated.

In previous attempts, even though Ye Tianchen’s physical body was blown apart, it happened before his body was reconstructed. Although this Origin Strange Energy was stubborn, preventing his body from recomposing, it hadn’t truly collided with the Martial Arts True Power. Now, things were different. Ye Tianchen’s body had successfully reformed, and the two different forces, transformed into dragons, were being controlled in his Dantian. If they collided, it would be the strongest impact, reducing Ye Tianchen’s Dantian, body, and Divine Thought to nothingness. This would be akin to a small explosion—not too worrisome. But a long-accumulated great explosion could shatter him to pieces!

Bang!

Still, it wasn’t achieved. Ye Tianchen wanted to control the two dragon-formed forces with his Divine Thought, having them enter the Taiji Bagua Map and each occupy a side. But as he attempted to control them with his Divine Thought, the two dragons began a massive collision. Just one round, and Ye Tianchen’s body was on the verge of breaking apart, on the brink of form and spirit annihilation.

”Old friend, it seems this boy is going to fail; he hasn’t been able to resolve the hidden danger in his cultivation!” Dian Wei glanced at Ye Tianchen within the formation and said.

”In this matter, you and I are powerless. If he can’t even manage this step, I can’t help him!” Qin Kongdao shook his head helplessly and said.

Boom!

Ye Tianchen only felt an enormous sound from within his Dantian. His entire being was dumbfounded, and suddenly his body, Dantian, and Divine Thought seemed to shatter, truly in a state of form and spirit annihilation, with his consciousness wandering, on the brink of obliteration. In this state, Ye Tianchen seemed to see a figure. Though the figure wasn’t particularly large, it exuded an aura of towering presence, oppressing the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, resolute, strong, indomitable, never defeated. From this figure, Ye Tianchen saw these traits and couldn’t help but gather his final Divine Thought, using the ”Holy Heaven Prison” to suppress the rampage within his Dantian.

”Press forward with courage, with a Taoist Heart that is indestructible; this is truly me, Ye Tianchen...”

Clatter!

When everything calmed down, Ye Tianchen discovered he wasn’t dead, his form and spirit intact. He seemed to have survived a desperate situation. He immediately performed Inner Vision on his Dantian, only to see the Holy Heaven Prison continually floating and sinking. A stream of Chaos Qi descended from it, landing precisely on the dividing line of the Taiji Bagua Map, separating the power of the two dragon-formed forces. Though these two dragons constantly struggled and collided, they remained blocked by the Chaos Qi and gradually calmed. When everything settled, the two forces truly rested within the Taiji Bagua Map, only separated by a stream of Chaos Qi.

”Succeeded! I can’t believe I actually succeeded!” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but say excitedly.

”It’s too early to call it a success. To truly achieve the fusion of these two forces, you still need to release the suppression of the Holy Heaven Prison.” Qin Kongdao’s voice resonated in Ye Tianchen’s mind.

”Thank you, Senior, I will not give up!” Ye Tianchen nodded earnestly and said.

At this moment, in Ye Tianchen’s Dantian, a Taiji Bagua pattern had formed. On both sides of the Taiji Bagua Map, two dragons coiled, occasionally charging toward each other. Their distance was very close, almost irreconcilable without the Chaos Qi-formed dividing line in between. Otherwise, these two forces might have already collided, leaving Ye Tianchen in a state of form and spirit annihilation, turning to nothingness.

Currently, the Twin Princes of Immortal Island had been slain by the Battle King Qin Kongdao in the Ancient Dojo. Everyone had witnessed the Battle King’s majesty, especially the piece ”Heavenly God Slash,” unstoppable by anyone. Qin Kongdao’s words were decrees that no one dared defy. He stated that as long as Ye Tianchen emerged from the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” any young powerhouse could battle him. He wouldn’t interfere with Ye Tianchen’s life or death, meaning as long as Ye Tianchen stayed within the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array” and didn’t perish due to the fusion problem of the two forces, no one dared to act against him, providing Ye Tianchen with a perfectly safe environment to resolve his hidden danger!

However, Ye Tianchen understood very well that this time Qin Kongdao and Dian Wei, these two seniors, had opened the Ancient Dojo, allowing all young martial artists from Earth’s Three Ancient Martial Worlds to enter, each vying for fortune based on their talents and opportunities. This was to strengthen Earth’s Three Ancient Martial Worlds’ power and select the strongest young martial artists. Therefore, in this Ancient Dojo, regardless of friends or foes of Ye Tianchen, everyone would want to challenge him. Winning meant seizing greater fortune; losing meant Ye Tianchen might truly die in this Ancient Dojo.

For Ye Tianchen, he had considered this issue. The young martial artists among his peers were now competing based on skill and luck, vying for the intent inheritance within the Ancient Dojo. A strong one among them might already have gained something extraordinary. But him? Still inside the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” resolving the cultivation hazard from within, risking even form and spirit annihilation with the slightest mistake. His starting point was already much later than others’, but this was not something to be hurried. Ye Tianchen understood the situation clearly and quickly immersed his mind.

”What I need to do now is to remove the suppression of the Holy Heaven Prison and let these two forces coexist peacefully within the Taiji Bagua Map!” Ye Tianchen thought in his heart, quickly urging his Divine Thought to make a small attempt.

Rumble!

A sound like the collapse of mountains and the cracking of the earth. Ye Tianchen was just about to remove the suppression of the ”Holy Heaven Prison” and leave the dantian when he heard this sound. With just this thought, the two different forces that had turned into dragons, originally suppressed to a point of calm, once again seemed to want to collide with each other.

”This... is too difficult. Don’t even mention removing the suppression of the Holy Heaven Prison; even a slight relaxation could cause these two different forces to collide instantly... If they collide this time, I will definitely die!” Ye Tianchen thought to himself.

”Are you scared? In the end, you still lose, you simply can’t reach the point of fusion, your method is wrong!” An unharmonious voice sounded, and Ye Tianchen knew it was the true essence of the Origin Strange Energy speaking to him.

”Right or wrong is often just one thought away. Success or failure must be verified by oneself, what others say doesn’t matter!” Ye Tianchen replied irritably.

”Some things can be attempted, failed, and tried again, but if some things are failed, it’s a matter of life and death. With no life, how can you try again?”

”Cultivators inherently defy fate and fight for life. I am willing to fight and risk it all!”

Ye Tianchen gritted his teeth. Reaching this point, he really had no other choice or better method to think of, so he decided to forcibly remove the ”Holy Heaven Prison” from his dantian. Life or death, he could only gamble on it!

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted throughout the entire Ancient Dojo. Powerful energy scattered in all directions, even Qin Kongdao and Dian Wei were surprised, seemingly not expecting such a situation to occur, while Qin Kongdao watched the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array” with furrowed brows, having a sense of foreboding.

”Did this child fail?” Dian Wei couldn’t help but ask.

”I’m afraid with such a situation occurring, the chances of success are very small.” Qin Kongdao said with a frown.

This loud noise made most of the young martial artists in the Ancient Dojo, seeking the will of inheritance, shift their attention. After all, for them, Ye Tianchen was considered a powerful competitor, and whether he could successfully resolve his internal cultivation risks was crucial for them, so they couldn’t help but look up to the sky.

”Is this guy dead? Self-destructed?”

”Looks like he failed, even the Battle King couldn’t help him, still not dead?”

”If he’s dead, that’s good, one less strong competitor.”

”It’s said that Ye Tianchen has indeed caused quite a stir in the Three Ancient Martial Worlds on Earth, fearless of the heavens and earth, surviving certain death numerous times, displaying unfathomable power. If he survives, many people might not sleep soundly.”

”Anyway, if Ye Tianchen is dead, at least there’s one less person competing for the will of inheritance in this Ancient Dojo, which is a good thing for us!”

”Who said I’m dead? You all are happily searching for inheritance in this Ancient Dojo, I should join in too!”

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen’s voice echoed throughout the entire Ancient Dojo, Qin Kongdao and Dian Wei couldn’t help but exchange smiles. Ye Tianchen was naturally a young and powerful figure they favored, hoping he could pass this hurdle. It was expected that such an earth-shattering sound indicated failure, leading to a complete annihilation, but unexpectedly he wasn’t dead, and his voice was so full of vitality. It seemed Ye Tianchen was indeed an anomaly, someone who couldn’t be judged by common sense.

”Not dead? How is this possible, did this guy manage to do it? To fuse the two different forces together, this is simply defying the natural order!” (To be continued.
