Supreme Sword God

Chapter 87: Chapter 86: Unshakable Confidence, Number One Under Heaven!

”Let me in!”

Ye Chen stared at Fatty’s array and said.

”Brother Ye, it’s a bit troublesome, Meng Changtian’s soul avatar is quite strong...” Fatty muttered, ”I didn’t expect Meng Changtian to be severely injured by Hua Qianxue, and still dare to create a soul avatar to protect Meng Zitao.”

Actually, Fatty’s estimation of the situation was quite accurate.

The only surprise was Meng Changtian’s soul avatar.

”It’s just a mere wisp of a soul avatar, trap him, and I’ll destroy him.”

At this moment.

”Boom!”

Fatty’s array suddenly exploded.

A storm swept through.

Both Fatty and Ye Chen were blown away.

”Ye Chen, die!”

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar shouted, ignoring Fatty and flying towards Ye Chen.

Ye Chen, who was in the middle of being blown back, immediately mobilized the spiritual power in his sea of consciousness to charge at the four groups of spirit patterns, and then the spiritual power unleashed sharpness from the center of his brows.

Spiritual wave impact!

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar twisted for a moment.

But the spiritual wave impact didn’t cause any substantial damage to the soul avatar.

After a round of spiritual wave impact.

Meng Changtian’s soul suddenly dissipated, transforming into an extremely domineering intangible spiritual power, rushing into Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness.

Under normal circumstances.

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar wouldn’t find it easy to break open Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness barrier.

But Ye Chen had just performed the spiritual wave impact, creating a gap in his sea of consciousness, allowing Meng Changtian’s soul avatar to take advantage of it.

”Brother Ye!”

Fatty was terrified, shouting loudly as he rushed toward Ye Chen.

Meanwhile, Meng Zitao charged forward, the middle-grade magical artifact dagger that had fallen to the ground earlier flew back into his hand, and Meng Zitao grasped the dagger, fiercely stabbing towards Fatty.

Meng Zitao seemed to be in a frenzy.

The exposed eyes outside the mask were radiating intense bloodlust, and his aura was like that of a wild beast.

Fatty was intercepted!

And Ye Chen’s body, blown backward, had landed on the ground.

His body was trembling, because a fierce battle was unfolding within his sea of consciousness.

”No...”

”Impossible!”

”How can your sea of consciousness be boundless...”

”Extreme Spirit Master... you are on the path of the Extreme Spirit Master... you have actually condensed four groups of spirit patterns!”

”This absolutely cannot be true, you haven’t even condensed a spirit imprint, how can you elevate three groups of spirit patterns to the second tier!”

Ye Chen’s four groups of spirit patterns, under the control of his spiritual power, transformed into four sharp and unparalleled swords, continuously slashing at Meng Changtian’s soul avatar.

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar kept letting out incredulous roars, while defending against Ye Chen’s spirit pattern attacks.

He wanted to destroy Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness.

In theory, unless facing an Earth Seal Spirit Master, the sea of consciousness of a Tier Three Spirit Master would easily be destroyed by his soul avatar.

However, Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness was too large, too stable.

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar couldn’t inflict any substantial damage on Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness.

By charging into Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness with his soul avatar, he had effectively thrown himself into the net.

Fighting in his own sea of consciousness for the first time, Ye Chen didn’t dare to be careless, concentrating all his spiritual power, repeatedly controlling the four groups of spirit patterns to strike Meng Changtian’s soul avatar.

Moments later.

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar was shattered into pieces.

Then these fragments reassembled into a very ethereal form of Meng Changtian.

”Ye Chen, let’s settle our grudges here, shall we?!”

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar was afraid and actively sought peace.

”No way.”

Ye Chen’s voice resonated in the sea of consciousness world, as the four groups of spirit patterns struck down again.

Meng Changtian’s soul avatar became even more ethereal.

”Ye Chen, I am the Vice Martial Arts Dean of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy. Going against me will bring you no good end. You’d better think it through. It’s not that I’m begging you now; it’s me offering you a way out!”

”I don’t need anyone to offer me a way out!”

”Even if the road ahead is blocked, I will carve out a path with sword after sword!”

”You old dog, die!”

Ye Chen’s voice boomed like thunder in his sea of consciousness world.

The four groups of spirit patterns erupted once more with unparalleled sharpness, utterly obliterating Meng Changtian’s soul avatar.

At this time.

Fatty, who was dealing with the frenzied Meng Zitao, had also regained his composure.

”Damn it, Master Fatty will kill you!”

Just as Fatty was about to unleash a powerful move to finish Meng Zitao, suddenly, a fierce sword light flashed past Meng Zitao.

”Thud!”

Meng Zitao’s body crashed to the ground.

Head and body separated.

Immediately after, a layer of black smoke suddenly spread from Meng Zitao’s body.

In the blink of an eye.

Meng Zitao’s corpse turned into a pool of pus.

The one who killed Meng Zitao was, naturally, Ye Chen.

As the black mist appeared on Meng Zitao’s body, Ye Chen had already moved a distance away.

Fatty stared blankly, looking at Ye Chen.

”Brother Ye, you haven’t been possessed, have you?”

”No.”

”Then do you remember you owe me a hundred pieces of low-grade essence stones?”

”Scram!”

Fatty chuckled, dashed to Ye Chen’s side, and said, ”If you were possessed, you wouldn’t have killed Meng Zitao.”

Ye Chen couldn’t be bothered with Fatty’s jokes and looked at the pool of pus on the ground, asking, ”What’s going on here?”

”Bone-Eroding Soul-Devouring Incense, a very nasty thing. Luckily we never got too close to Meng Zitao. Otherwise, if he stuck that stuff on us, we’d be finished too.

He must have hidden the Bone-Eroding Soul-Devouring Incense on himself, and when his body fell, it accidentally came out.”

Ye Chen glanced at Fatty.

Fatty shook his head and said, ”Maybe, it was Meng Changtian.”

Such a dangerous thing, Meng Zitao couldn’t possibly keep it on himself; it must have been stored in his Storage Ring.

But the fact is the Bone-Eroding Soul-Devouring Incense ended up on Meng Zitao.

Most likely, when Meng Changtian’s soul fragment and Meng Zitao were trapped inside Fatty’s array for that duration, Meng Changtian’s soul fragment set this trap just in case.

Speaking of which.

Fatty got goosebumps all over.

Meng Changtian, ruthless enough!

To prepare for the worst, he directly set up this arrangement on his own son!

”By the way, does Meng Changtian’s main body know everything that has happened?” Ye Chen asked.

Fatty shook his head and said, ”Unless his soul fragment returns to the main body, he can’t possibly know.”

Ye Chen glanced at the corroded dagger beside the pool of pus and swung out a Sword Qi, sweeping the dagger into his Storage Ring.

”Brother Ye, that thing is already ruined, it’s worthless,” Fatty reminded.

”Sending it to Meng Changtian!”

Fatty froze.

Ye Chen said, ”Meng Zitao is dead, Meng Changtian can guess it’s my doing, no need to cover up. I’m sending the dagger back to him; I really want to see the look on that old dog’s face on the spot!”

Fatty blinked and said, ”Makes sense.”

Having gotten revenge.

It’s natural to make the remaining enemies suffer more, to be angrier.

Otherwise, what’s the point of secretly enjoying it yourself?

”By the way, Brother Ye, what was that body technique you used just now?” Fatty asked curiously. He had read countless classics since he was young, and had some understanding of the world’s matters. Now encountering something he couldn’t discern, he couldn’t help but be curious.

”The First Step in the World,” Ye Chen said.

”...” Fatty: ”Brother Ye, we’ve been through thick and thin so many times, your cultivation technique and swordsmanship... seem a bit special, why not share a bit?”

”Supreme Sword of All Heavens.”

Fatty: ”...”

Within the Sword Tomb.

Luo Qingyi smiled to herself, ”Consider yourself tactful, Tian Can’s Heaven-Ascending Step is indeed worthy of being called the First Step in the World in this world, and Nine Heavens Sword God’s sword technique... that can be the Supreme Sword of All Heavens...”

When saying this, Luo Qingyi’s confidence was lacking.

The grandeur of the Great Worlds of All Heavens, even she hadn’t seen it.

And to Ye Chen.

The Heaven-Ascending Step was fast, but Master Legs still got his leg chopped off by Nine Heavens Sword God.

So one is the First in the World, and the other is Supreme of All Heavens.

As to whether it truly is, who cares.

Fatty snapped back and gave Ye Chen a thumbs-up.

”For thick skin, Brother Ye, I bow to you!”

This was only the Qi Sea Realm First Layer, and yet so confident...

All that about the First Step in the World, Supreme Sword of All Heavens, Fatty didn’t believe a word.

Not saying, that’s that. Besides, Fatty and Ye Chen aren’t enemies.

Actually, Fatty was also very curious about how Ye Chen dealt with Meng Changtian’s soul fragment, but it seemed asking would be in vain.

Does Master Fatty not care about face?

Knowing he won’t get an answer, why bother asking?!

Hmph!

”Brother Fatty, do you know anything about Huang Qinglan?” Ye Chen asked.

Since last time, when Huang Qinglan became an Earth Seal Spirit Master and had a fight, the Star Spirit System said Huang Qinglan went into seclusion for healing, and then Huang Qinglan disappeared; Ye Chen found it suspicious,

Fatty was resourceful, maybe he knew something.

Fatty shook his head and said, ”I actually tried to find out for you, but there’s no news yet. However, I’m quite certain, Huang Qinglan is not at Cangxing Martial Arts Academy. It’s very likely she was sent by Meng Changtian to some special place for training. I will continue to investigate and notify you first thing if there are any clues.”

......

At Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, Spiritual Martial System, in the main hall.

Meng Changtian was discussing matters concerning Ye Chen with a group of Star Spirit System instructors.

Suddenly, Meng Changtian’s face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

A terrifyingly grim expression appeared on his face.

His soul fragment was destroyed!

Which means, his son Meng Zitao was in trouble!

”Vice Dean Meng... your health...” an instructor asked nervously in a low voice.

Meng Changtian lifted his head.

Blood hung at the corner of his mouth.

He clenched his fists, quelling the overwhelming killing intent in his heart, and spoke in a sorrowful tone, ”Just now, I had a premonition, Zitao’s seclusion to advance to Tier Three Spirit Master failed... and unfortunately... he perished!”
