Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1542: Chapter 1541: One Year of Lifespan, Still Moving Forward...

The contest within the Ancient Dojo has temporarily come to an end. However, the strongest among the young generation of the three great Ancient Martial Worlds on Earth has yet to be chosen because many widely acclaimed young experts did not participate in the battle. Nonetheless, this battle further elevated Ye Tianchen’s reputation!

However, it is already known that Ye Tianchen has only one year of lifespan and is still troubled by Tao injuries, as this news has spread throughout the three great Ancient Martial Worlds. Among those with grudges against Ye Tianchen or young Martial Artists without absolute confidence, there is collective relief, for Ye Tianchen’s existence poses a great threat to them. Only with Ye Tianchen’s demise can they breathe a sigh of relief!

After Dian Wei spoke, many young Martial Artists, accompanied by figures from the older generation, headed to various parts of the Ancient Dojo, sensing the legacy of intentions within, hoping to gain some fortunes or acquire remnants left by Ancient Experts who had once battled here. No one discussed or cared about Ye Tianchen anymore because even War Emperor Qin Kongdao said that Ye Tianchen is still troubled by Tao injuries, with only a year of lifespan left; that is, unless one can find an Immortal Elixir for continuing life, there remains a glimmer of hope. However, everyone understands what kind of Divine Artifact an Immortal Elixir is. Even if one searches across the entire Martial Arts World, it’s unlikely to find one. Not even an Ancient Saint is likely to obtain it, let alone Ye Tianchen, especially on this secluded Earth. Ye Tianchen almost inevitably awaits the fate of death in a year!

Ye Tianchen stood up, wiped the bloodstain from the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile, ”Thank you very much for the assistance from the two seniors. The great kindness of you two, I will always remember!”

”No need to be polite. You are someone with great fortune and perseverance and will walk the path much further than mine. I hope you can survive and heal the Tao injury inside your body!” Dian Wei nodded and said.

”Go and search, there might still be a chance...” Qin Kongdao pondered and said.

”War Emperor senior, do you mean Ye Tianchen still has a chance to live?” Wang Luanxiang couldn’t help but ask happily.

”Senior, I know what you’re referring to, and I will do my utmost to find it. I can’t just die like this; I still have many things unaccomplished!” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

”Hmm, I knew you have two fragments of the Ancient Transmission Array. In the hands of the Blood Killing Organization, there should still be one piece. Let me retrieve it. This world is about to descend into chaos. The secluded Earth will sooner or later be exposed to the Martial Arts World, and we don’t know what chaos the true Martial Arts World is already in. We need to repair the Ancient Transmission Array quickly.” Qin Kongdao nodded and said.

”Senior, let me go instead. You shouldn’t get involved in these grudges...” Ye Tianchen thought for a moment and said.

”Haha, you little brat, just take care of yourself!” Qin Kongdao said with a smile.

They left!

After Qin Kongdao and Dian Wei left the Ancient Dojo, Ye Tianchen, Little Zhu Yan, God Beating Bowl, and Wang Luanxiang also left the Ancient Dojo together. Ye Tianchen appeared as if nothing was wrong, but everyone knows that a Tao injury still exists within Ye Tianchen, as small as a grain of rice, yet it is his fatal weakness. According to War Emperor’s assessment, Ye Tianchen only has a year of lifespan left. Without an absolute method to heal this Tao injury within a year, it will be a fate of total annihilation!

Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang flew using Qi Manipulation ahead, while the two rascals, Little Zhu Yan and God Beating Bowl, flew behind using Qi Manipulation. Throughout the journey, they did not converse much and headed together toward Linxian City. Upon reaching the outskirts of Linxian City, Ye Tianchen glanced at Wang Luanxiang and said, ”Aren’t you going back to see your Wang family?”

”What for? My father and others have different thoughts than mine. Besides, why would you come with me? Our Wang family wants to kill you!” Wang Luanxiang said teasingly with a smile.

”Alright, then let it be. We’ll leave Linxian City. I think it’s time for me to leave the Penglai Ancient Martial World!” Ye Tianchen contemplated and said.

About to leave, matters in the Penglai Ancient Martial World have largely been settled by Ye Tianchen, and significant time has been spent on them. The reason he came to Penglai Ancient Martial World was to locate the lair of the Blood Killing Organization and obtain the third fragment of the Ancient Transmission Array. Unfortunately, after arriving in the Penglai Ancient Martial World, he discovered many things and learned of many matters he wished to explore. Certainly, Ye Tianchen has gained tremendously as well. And now, since War Emperor Qin Kongdao said he will search for the Blood Killing Organization and retrieve the third fragment of the Ancient Transmission Array, Ye Tianchen doesn’t need to worry anymore. If the War Emperor takes action, there surely won’t be any issues. He still has many other tasks to accomplish!

”This world is about to fall into chaos, and it might affect the Mortal World on Earth. My parents, my friends, I need to make plans for them. And among the brothers of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings, aside from finding Wuxue, where are the others? This is my responsibility, something I must do!” Ye Tianchen muttered to himself.

”Hey, Ye Kid, what are you muttering to yourself about?” Little Zhu Yan couldn’t help but ask.

”Oh, it’s nothing. I’m about to leave the Ancient Martial World of Penglai. Do you plan to leave with me?” Ye Tianchen glanced at Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl and asked.

”Of course! You’re my little bro, and I have to look out for you wherever you go!” Little Zhu Yan said with a mischievous grin.

”I’ll just have to follow you guys too. After all, back in the day, I received orders from this punk’s father king. If this punk dies young, I wouldn’t be able to answer to the Ancient War Emperor!” The God Beating Bowl shot an annoyed glance at Little Zhu Yan.

”And what about you?” Ye Tianchen looked at Wang Luanxiang and asked.

”You’ve brought so much hatred onto me. Even if I tell those inheritors that I, Wang Luanxiang, have nothing to do with you, Ye Tianchen, they wouldn’t believe it. You can’t just run away without responsibility; of course, I’m going with you!” Wang Luanxiang said playfully.

Ye Tianchen shook his head with a smile, not saying much more. He suddenly thought of the Xinyang family, and he remembered clearly that when he obliterated Young Master Xinyang, the latter mentioned the Divine Body of the Xinyang family. The look and expression were unshakeable, believing in the Xinyang family’s body more than himself. Young Master Xinyang said their Divine Body was ”invincible”; could it truly be that powerful? Ye Tianchen didn’t know much about the innate bloodline physique of martial artists. Thinking about how he killed Young Master Xinyang, he knew the Xinyang family would definitely not let this go unpunished. A confrontation with the Xinyang family’s Divine Body was inevitable, and since the Wang family was closely associated with the Xinyang family, Wang Luanxiang might know something!

”When Young Master Xinyang died, he mentioned the Divine Body of the Xinyang family. How much do you know about it?” Ye Tianchen asked Wang Luanxiang.

”The Xinyang family’s Divine Body? I heard my father mention it once, but don’t know a lot!” Wang Luanxiang thought for a moment and replied.

”Tell me what you know!” Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

After thinking for a while, Wang Luanxiang slowly recounted what she knew about the Divine Body of the Xinyang family to Ye Tianchen. Unexpectedly, it was something that happened about ten years ago. Wang Luanxiang overheard her father talking with an elder of the Xinyang family about their Divine Body. She only heard one sentence: that the Divine Body of the Xinyang family had long been able to battle the Supreme Elder Level experts of the Xinyang family and held winning potential!

Astonishment, indeed Ye Tianchen was astonished. Ten years ago, the Xinyang family’s Divine Body could already battle the Supreme Elder Level experts within their ranks and held superior strength. How much stronger had it become over those ten years? Could it have truly become the strongest martial artist in the Xinyang family? If so, across the three great Ancient Martial Worlds, perhaps few could match the Xinyang family’s Divine Body, even he, Ye Tianchen, might not be its opponent, is it really that terrifying?

”What kind of bloodline physique is the Divine Body, is it truly that terrifying?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ask.

”I don’t know, anyway, it’s just very strong, strong to the point of being abnormal, just like a demon!” Wang Luanxiang frowned and said.

”Let me educate you a bit on the bloodline physique... Throughout history, the Martial Arts World has produced many strong individuals and species. Interactions, even procreations, occur among these species, like between the Human Clan and the Ancient Alien Race, the Ancient Alien Race and the Demon Clan, or even between different Ancient Alien Races. This results in some Bloodline Powers. Some bloodline physiques possess uniqueness, some have unpredictable strength, born strong—that’s special Bloodline Power. After billions of years of evolution, these Bloodline Powers have been summarized by strong individuals, represented by certain physiques like: Overlord Immortal Body, Reincarnation Saint Body, Star Body, Emperor Corpse, and the Xinyang family’s Divine Body, known as the Eternal Divine Body!” Little Zhu Yan explained.

”These special bloodline physiques, all harbor unfathomable strength. Once unleashed, they are truly heaven-defying and definitely a demon-level existence. Historically, among those recorded as Emperor Realm figures in the Martial Arts World, over half of the Supreme Emperors possessed these unique physiques. With such bloodline physique, whether in cultivation or understanding of Taoism, results come twice as fast with half the effort, undeniably impressive. It’s a fact one must acknowledge!” The God Beating Bowl nodded and said. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote on qidian.com with recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
