Chapter 2337: Chapter 2335: Ominous Power Is Truly Terrifying!

[The second update has arrived!]

The feathered man has been killed!

Ye Tianchen’s title as an ”anomaly” even above demons seems to have been further validated. He was able to use the power of the First Level of the Forbidden Domain to kill the power of the Second Level, which is truly a defiance of the heavens!

However, it was precisely because Ye Tianchen used all of his power, employing all his methods and divine skills to kill the feathered man, that the ominous power within him took advantage of this moment, spreading throughout his entire body, making him appear as if he had lost his sanity completely. His entire body was covered in more than half a meter of red hair, obscuring even his face!

”But... are we just going to keep running for our lives like this? Ignoring Brother Ye’s safety? If he completely loses his sanity, I’m afraid he will never come back!” Hu Gao said anxiously.

”We also know it’s dangerous. If one is completely occupied by such an ominous force, they will become nothing more than a walking corpse, never to regain clarity. However, we’ve already used rune skills, and we can’t trap this kid!” the God Beating Bowl said with a frown, equally anxious.

”Yeah, now Ye Tianchen is not far from completely losing his sanity. If he catches up with us, he certainly won’t be courteous and will surely kill us without mercy. He’s already lost his reason, you can tell from how he attacked you!” Little Zhu Yan also said.

Hu Gao was extremely anxious, but he knew that with his own strength, he couldn’t possibly subdue the current rampaging Ye Tianchen. He could only hope that Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl, those two tricksters, might have a solution, since these two tricksters always had plenty of clever ideas!

”No matter what, you guys have to think of a way! We can’t just watch Brother Ye go on like this, can we? Don’t forget, the Martial Arts World is in turmoil, and we’ll encounter many killings. Without Brother Ye’s protection, we’re really in danger!” Hu Gao said seriously.

Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl exchanged a look, actually, they would have acted even without Hu Gao urging them. However, launching a rune array capable of trapping even a Saint wasn’t so easy either; it required some time. And now, Ye Tianchen, who has lost part of his sanity, wouldn’t give them that time and would definitely charge in. That’s why Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl were fleeing!

”It seems there’s a desolate area up ahead, let’s activate the formation there!” Little Zhu Yan said to the God Beating Bowl.

”Yes, but now that Ye Tianchen is behaving like a madman, it will be difficult to effectively set up the rune array. We’ll need someone to hold him off!” the God Beating Bowl nodded and said to Little Zhu Yan.

”I’ll do it, I’ll hold off Brother Ye for a moment!” Hu Gao immediately said without hesitation.

Little Zhu Yan glanced at Hu Gao and joked, ”Have you thought this through, kid? This is a very dangerous job. Ye Tianchen has already lost his mind and won’t recognize you as Hu Gao. He will certainly be merciless, and you might be killed beyond recognition!”

”Yeah, why don’t I block Ye Tianchen, and you guys set up the rune array?” the God Beating Bowl intentionally asked.

”My proficiency in rune arrays is very superficial. I can’t possibly help you set up a formation. I can only go and block Brother Ye. You guys go and set up the formation with peace of mind!” Hu Gao replied resolutely.

”It seems that Ye Tianchen really made a few good friends, how rare!” Little Zhu Yan said with a smile.

”In the brutal and bloody Martial Arts World, having friends is indeed not easy!” the God Beating Bowl remarked, looking at Hu Gao with approval and nodding.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl, the two tricksters, instantly flew off into the distance, towards that desolate area, while Hu Gao glanced at the oncoming Ye Tianchen, feeling a sense of resolve facing death. He knew those two tricksters weren’t exaggerating or trying to scare him. Ye Tianchen had nearly completely lost his mind. The vicious aura radiating from him was purely intent on killing. For Hu Gao’s strength, facing Ye Tianchen was out of the question. Wasn’t this looking for death and waiting to die?

”Brother Ye, it’s me, Hu Gao. Don’t you recognize me?” Hu Gao shouted loudly at the charging Ye Tianchen.

BANG!

Ye Tianchen slapped down with a quick strike, completely ignoring Hu Gao’s words. It seemed that in Ye Tianchen’s mind now, there was only a release of vicious aura and a force of slaughter; he had lost his rationality and judgment!

Bang!

Seeing Ye Tianchen couldn’t hear him, Hu Gao could only counter with a palm strike, clashing with Ye Tianchen’s power, and was instantly thrown dozens of meters away. However, Hu Gao himself was not weak, and although Ye Tianchen was very powerful and incredibly defiant, he had nearly exhausted his strength after the life-and-death battle with the Feathered Man. Ye Tianchen was desperately killing now because that ominous power within his body was controlling him, and it was not his full force at hand, which is fundamentally different. Otherwise, with Hu Gao’s strength, he could not withstand Ye Tianchen’s full-strength strike!

”Brother Ye...” Hu Gao saw Ye Tianchen attacking again before he could react, furrowing his brows with the realization that shouting at Ye Tianchen was futile, leaving him no choice but to keep fighting!

Bang!

Ye Tianchen and Hu Gao battled fiercely despite Hu Gao’s strength and cultivation realm being substantial. Ye Tianchen, severely wounded from his battle with the Feathered Man, had drained his energies. Yet, Ye Tianchen’s talent was high, his demon-like potential too strong; even now, with his mind nearly lost, his combat strength made Hu Gao tremble with fear. It was then Hu Gao understood why Ye Tianchen had come so far; his potential was unimaginably powerful!

No matter how Hu Gao shouted, he couldn’t awaken Ye Tianchen or bring him to his senses. Hu Gao realized that to stop Ye Tianchen and buy time for Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl’s array formation, he had to choose to fight Ye Tianchen even at the risk of severe injury or death to halt Ye Tianchen from charging forward. If he didn’t, Ye Tianchen could be the one to die, for once his mind is wholly consumed by ominous power, he would become nothing more than a walking corpse, unable to recover, unable to revert to his original self!

As Hu Gao fought to stop Ye Tianchen and buy time for Little Zhu Yan and the Divine Bowl’s rune array setup, those two flying into the wilderness above exchanged looks with a hesitant gaze.

”I didn’t expect the kind of ominous power from the Ancient Times really existed!” Little Zhu Yan exclaimed with surprise.

”Perhaps this is fate, but who would have thought the ominous power feared by so many strong warriors would manifest on Earth, this closed-off world!” The God Beating Bowl chuckled.

”It’s said that once affected by ominous power, survival is impossible; either annihilated or turned into a walking corpse. Even strong personalities in the Saint Realm faced a soul-scattering fate after touching such ominous power. Can Ye Tianchen survive?” Little Zhu Yan wondered anxiously.

”No matter what, Ye Tianchen has helped us; we must do all we can to save him!” The God Beating Bowl declared resolutely.

”Haha, when did you become so righteous? I didn’t notice!” Little Zhu Yan teased.

”You pest, if I weren’t righteous enough, would I even care? I’d have gone cultivating long ago!” The God Beating Bowl retorted irately.

Little Zhu Yan smiled faintly, glancing at Ye Tianchen battling Hu Gao nearby and expressed concern, ”Remember the Ancient Times records claimed that when ominous power emerged, it devastated the entire Martial Arts World, causing countless strong warriors and innocents to fall and turn to ashes, becoming walking corpses—a fate worse than death. Who knows if this resurgence of ominous power will spread even wider!”

”Indeed, during the Ancient Times, it was your father, the Ancient War Emperor, with his unparalleled power, who eradicated the ominous presence and prevented it from spreading further in the Martial Arts World. Yet, this ominous power claimed many lives, brutally and horribly!” The God Beating Bowl nodded.

”Let’s get started, hopefully this kid Ye Tianchen is blessed!” Little Zhu Yan glanced at the God Beating Bowl.

”Haha, you got it wrong; Ye Tianchen doesn’t believe in destiny; he only trusts his own strength!” The God Beating Bowl replied serenely.

Swish! Swish!

Two figures approached the desolate wilderness. Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl discarded their usual shifty demeanor and turned incredibly serious. Their bodies exuded formidable power as they faced the ominous force’s origin, which they knew well, and it was a source of fear!

Ominous power had claimed countless strong figures, and even Saints faced annihilation upon contact. Could Ye Tianchen survive it? Would he die from this evil?
