[Request for subscription, this is the fundamental force to continue writing!]

The battle between Ye Tianchen and Xu Zigang can be said to have surprised both parties, especially due to the unexpected strength of the opponent and the depth of their hidden power, which truly left both of them astonished!

However, for Ye Tianchen, he had received another piece of information: the Blood Killing Organization wants to make a comeback and aim to become a force that terrifies the Martial Arts World once more. They are searching for the Dragon Crystal. The purpose behind finding the Dragon Crystal is likely to revive the old King of Killers, who is close to sitting in meditation, allowing him to live a few more years. This means the resurgence and killings of the Blood Killing Organization will begin from Earth again!

At this moment, Xu Zigang unleashed an Absolute Skill taught to him by the Blood Killing Organization, a type of Demon Skill known as ”Star Absorption Demon Skill.” When this Divine Skill was unleashed, a massive vortex appeared in this world, with such strong devouring power that it could consume anything. More terrifyingly, it could turn the power of the consumed into his own, which truly left people feeling shaken.

Reaching this point, it was nearly time to decide life or death. Ye Tianchen naturally held nothing back and immediately brought forth the ”Holy Heaven Prison.” With the powerful force of the ”Holy Heaven Prison,” he unleashed Chaos Qi that pierced through the indestructible Devouring Vortex, leaving Xu Zigang astounded. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he certainly wouldn’t have believed it. This ”Star Absorption Demon Skill” is one of the most powerful Divine Skills in the Demon Path, and ever since he successfully cultivated it, he felt his power had increased significantly. Even the old ghost Laili, who had always been stronger, was no match for him. Had it not been for his carelessness, the old ghost Laili would have been killed long ago!

Initially, Xu Zigang thought Ye Tianchen had only two choices: either be completely obliterated or desperately escape. He never expected that within just a few years, Ye Tianchen had not only mastered the use of the ”Holy Heaven Prison” but could also freely manipulate Chaos Qi. This level of advancement and progress was something Xu Zigang had absolutely not anticipated.

At this point, above Ye Tianchen’s head, the ”Holy Heaven Prison” continuously rotated, and the Chaos Qi surged out, piercing through the massive Devouring Vortex behind him. Under these circumstances, Ye Tianchen formed Sealing Skills with his hands, astonishingly gathering the Chaos Qi into two palms that tightly gripped the Devouring Vortex from left and right.

”What... what are you trying to do?” Xu Zigang asked, momentarily stunned by Ye Tianchen’s use of Chaos Qi.

”Nothing, just trying to tear it apart!” Ye Tianchen said with a slight smile.

”You... you want to forcibly tear apart the power of this Star Absorption Demon Skill, such... madness!” Xu Zigang exclaimed in utter shock.

What surprised Xu Zigang about Ye Tianchen was primarily Ye Tianchen’s ability to utilize Chaos Qi to this extent, coupled with Chaos Qi’s inherently indestructible nature. This allowed the power of the ”Star Absorption Demon Skill” to be forcibly pierced. Piercing it might not be exaggerated to the extreme, but now Ye Tianchen was even transforming Chaos Qi into two palms, saying he would forcibly tear the Devouring Vortex apart — this was simply unimaginable!

”I’m someone who likes adventure and doing crazy things!” Ye Tianchen said, a confident smile curling at his lips.

Rumble!

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Tianchen continuously urged the Chaos Qi. Despite the Devouring Vortex behind still struggling, it was akin to a bird with its wings pinched, tightly gripped by two Chaos Qi-formed palms!

”Shatter!”

Ye Tianchen roared fiercely, and the two Chaos Qi-formed palms abruptly pulled apart to both sides. Suddenly, the world trembled as if sensing the power. This was a confrontation of two mad forces, with Chaos Qi tearing at the Devouring Vortex, and the Vortex not resigning, struggling fiercely, even emitting devouring power as if trying to consume the Chaos Qi.

Poof!

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen spat out a mouthful of blood and coldly glanced at the Devouring Vortex. He was surprised that with Chaos Qi’s indestructibility, it couldn’t instantly tear this Devouring Vortex apart, causing great shock to his system, stirring his blood and qi, and inflicting some minor injuries. If this continued, it would not be beneficial for Ye Tianchen, especially since Xu Zigang had not yet recovered. Should Xu Zigang suddenly attack him ferociously, it would place Ye Tianchen in an even more passive position!

”Hmph, you really are overconfident and reckless!” Xu Zigang sneered when he saw Ye Tianchen injured, speaking with disdain.

”Hmm?” Ye Tianchen was startled. He suddenly realized that it wasn’t the Chaos Qi’s two illusory hands grasping the Devouring Vortex. Instead, it was the vortex pulling at the Chaos Qi, making it impossible for him to retrieve it!

Xu Zigang sneered, walked up to Ye Tianchen, and said disapprovingly, ”Did you really think I wasn’t prepared for your Chaos Qi? During our battle all those years ago, I knew the power of Chaos Qi. Before you unleashed it, why would I go all out? I just didn’t expect you to be so foolish and easily duped. It’s laughable!”

”So, this was all your plan!” Ye Tianchen frowned as he thought of something.

”It’s too late to realize it now. Even with such a powerful treasure in your hand, it’s useless,” Xu Zigang taunted with a smirk.

From the beginning, Xu Zigang used the ”Star Absorption Demon Skill” with a clear purpose: to force Ye Tianchen to use the power of Chaos Qi. During their previous battle, Ye Tianchen wasn’t very adept at wielding the Chaos Qi, not fully unleashing its power. Yet, it was enough to shock Xu Zigang and the old Beggar Ghost. In this renewed fierce battle, Xu Zigang first considered the formidable strength of Ye Tianchen’s Chaos Qi and deemed it not to be underestimated. Throughout the fight, Ye Tianchen hadn’t used his Chaos Qi, leaving Xu Zigang uneasy. That’s why he deployed the ”Star Absorption Demon Skill” to force Ye Tianchen to use the Chaos Qi’s power.

While Ye Tianchen could pierce the Devouring Vortex with his Chaos Qi, perhaps due to its immense power, this was exactly what Xu Zigang intended. It wasn’t to let the Chaos Qi penetrate the Devouring Vortex but to have the vortex entrap the Chaos Qi. This way, Ye Tianchen couldn’t engage in another fierce battle, becoming an easy prey left for slaughter!

Buzz!

Ye Tianchen was shocked, not expecting Xu Zigang to outsmart him in the end. He tried to urge the Chaos Qi back, yet, with Chaos Qi piercing through the Devouring Vortex, the two seemed to cling tightly together. Even with hands formed from the Chaos Qi trying to pull the vortex along continuously, they couldn’t rip it apart instantly. Ye Tianchen indeed found himself in a passive position. If this continued, the one to be defeated and ultimately obliterated might very well be him, Ye Tianchen!

Xu Zigang glanced coldly at Ye Tianchen without immediately attacking. Perhaps he wanted to taunt Ye Tianchen a while longer to feel more thrilled. However, Ye Tianchen didn’t say anything, glaring coldly back at Xu Zigang, uncertain of his next move!

”I could kill you with ease right now, but I won’t let you die so swiftly. I’ll make you feel the fear of death and erase you bit by bit—which is far more thrilling!” Xu Zigang said, his eyes full of venom and malice.

Xu Zigang, using the Devouring Vortex’s power, entangled Ye Tianchen’s Chaos Qi. Even the ”Holy Heaven Prison” above Ye Tianchen’s head seemed to be ensnared. Xu Zigang didn’t strike to obliterate Ye Tianchen directly; instead, he took a step forward and entered the Devouring Vortex, which shocked Ye Tianchen.

It must be known that the Devouring Vortex’s power is immensely strong and could devour everything. Even as the mage, Xu Zigang couldn’t possibly enter it—or was he courting death?

Yet, as Xu Zigang stepped in, Ye Tianchen was astounded that he remained unaffected by the Devouring Vortex. Xu Zigang sat cross-legged at the vortex’s large center, emanating a demonic energy. This demonic force was extraordinary, as if Xu Zigang fused with the vortex, complementing each other, making Xu Zigang stronger and the whirlpool’s power even mightier.

”You’ve cultivated the Star Absorption Demon Skill to such a level, and you can absorb power within it?” Ye Tianchen frowned as he looked at Xu Zigang.

Xu Zigang sneeringly replied, ”The old King of Killers from the Blood Killing Organization only imparted to me an incomplete part of the Star Absorption Demon Skill. He never imagined that, through my brilliance, I forcefully cultivated it successfully and even improved it. Without needing to kill a formidable foe, I can draw power from the Devouring Vortex to stand invincible forever!”

”It seems your strength derives from this. But Demon Skills always harm both others and oneself. Aren’t you afraid of backlash?” Ye Tianchen asked with a frown. (To be continued.
