Supreme Sword God

Chapter 169: Chapter 168: Perilous Crisis and Brotherhood

Lying silently in the bushes, Ye Chen remained unmoving and betrayed not the slightest hint of his presence, his gaze fixed on the prey slowly approaching him.

Eight meters.

Seven meters.

Six meters.

The man in the Primordial Embryo Realm Fifth Layer was highly alert, yet he focused his attention on his left and right sides as well as farther ahead.

Suddenly.

A bird flew past on the left side.

The man’s eyes widened abruptly as he swung his sword in that direction.

The sword light shot out fiercely, killing the bird.

Only after realizing he had just slain a common bird did the man react, letting out a relieved sigh.

And just as he exhaled.

Ye Chen sprang up from the thorny bushes!

A thunderous roar shook the air as dazzling sword light surged forward like a mighty river.

Thunderbolt Sword, Thunder Slash!

Thunder and lightning!

Ye Chen, having waited long for this moment of ambush, unleashed his attack with no holds barred, aiming to kill in one strike!

”Swish!”

The sword descended.

In astonishment, the man in the Primordial Embryo Realm Fifth Layer was instantly shattered into fragments.

The massive Sword Qi cleaved into the ground.

”Boom!”

The earth exploded.

The black and white duo rushed in, one in front and the other behind, to block Ye Chen.

Not far away.

Huang Qinglan couldn’t hold back and cursed furiously, ”A bunch of idiots, even dealing with Ye Chen in such a state, you managed to mess it up, you deserve to die!”

”Qinglan, no rush, Ye Chen is obviously at his limit now. If someone is indeed secretly protecting him, they should make their move now.

It’s no big deal if we’re wrong.

I’ve instructed the black and white duo to capture him alive. They won’t kill Ye Chen; his life is yours to end, any way you see fit!” Feng Tianyou said.

Huang Qinglan clenched her fists and could only keep waiting!

......

”Ye Chen, you’ve come this far, but even if you have some hidden cards left, you don’t have the strength to play them now, do you?” The black-faced woman snarled, ”Though we’re to capture you alive, you’ve caused us significant losses, and that debt needs settling!

I’ll cut your limbs piece by piece, making you endure unbearable torments to ease my hatred!”

The white-faced man’s slender sword pointed straight at Ye Chen, ”Today, this should all come to an end!”

Ye Chen gripped his Celestial Mark Sword tightly.

His blood-stained face showed no fear, instead revealing a smile!

Within his smile was a trace of determination!

Since the Ye Family in Qingyun City was annihilated, his journey had been fraught with danger and crisis.

Every single time.

He overcame it!

This time will be no different!

His formidable mindset, astounding resilience, and unwavering fighting spirit made Ye Chen’s Invincible Sword Momentum even more solid and its power more overwhelming!

The black and white duo were both influenced by Ye Chen’s Invincible Sword Momentum, their expressions visibly changing, a wave of fear arose within them!

Ye Chen spat out the blood in his mouth, laughed heartily, and declared, ”Slay you two, then the ones lurking will come out!

Hahaha, such worthless scum, don’t you want to kill me? I’m alone, heavily injured, weak, yet you dare not emerge; you don’t even have the guts, how dare you dream of killing me!”

”Ye Chen, insolence will do you no good; the two of us together are enough to finish you!” the black-faced woman shouted fiercely, rushing at Ye Chen with her blade swinging.

The gleaming blade.

Displayed its full might to split mountains and sever peaks.

Almost simultaneously, the white-faced man also struck, his cold sword light unpredictably flickering, ready to pierce Ye Chen from any direction!

Inside Ye Chen, Sword Essence began to burn wildly!

Now, he deployed the Burning Sword Technique he hadn’t used in ages!

At present, his Sword Essence was abundant and solid, his Qi Blood vigorous; even though the Burning Sword Technique was merely low-grade, it could enhance him only slightly.

But there was still some enhancement!

The burning Sword Essence flowed within him in the form of Ripple Force, one layer, two layers, three layers, four layers!

This time, the power of Ripple Force overlapped and reached directly four layers!

From his brow, golden light poured forth.

On his Celestial Mark Sword, Five Elements Sword Intent circulated!

All cards on the table!

The intent was to strike down the black and white duo beneath his sword!

Just then.

An amplified shout suddenly rang out.

”Earth Dragon Slash!”

”Boom!”

A terrifying surge swept along the ground, and then from within the earth, a giant dragon composed entirely of Earth Sword Intent surged forth, charging at the black-faced woman, shattering her formidable blade light.

Ye Chen didn’t look in the direction of the voice.

He knew Luo Tian had arrived.

A piercing shout burst from Ye Chen’s mouth, and the next moment, he spun abruptly, power from his Celestial Mark Sword slashing down.

Golden Extreme Sky-breaking Sword!

This was a strike formed by Ye Chen’s Burning Sword Technique and Ripple Force.

This was the most potent single-target attack from the Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique!

Besides this.

From Ye Chen’s brow, the Spirit Seal Golden Light also gathered on the Celestial Mark Sword, bestowing the sword light with a majestic golden glow.

This was not the fusion of spirit and martial.

Just a simple amalgamation of Spiritual Power and Sword Essence.

Fusion of spirit and martial is the perfect blend of power!

Yet even so, Ye Chen’s sword was powerful enough to plunge the white-faced man into despair!

The aura emanating from the terrifying sword light filled the area for miles around with sharp intensity, shattering stones, breaking vegetation, bending light, and cracking the earth!

The white-faced man of the black and white duo let out a desperate, furious roar, his figure engulfed by Ye Chen’s sword light, his body sliced through with sharp gashes.

His Consciousness Sea was shattered by the Spiritual Power within the sword light.

His screams were excruciatingly tragic.

He wished to break free, to escape from the world within the sword light, but this was a strike infused with all of Ye Chen’s power, rendering the white-faced man’s efforts futile!

Another heart-wrenching scream echoed from the dreadful sword light.

The white-faced man’s physical form exploded entirely, torn apart by the sword light, and his soul dissipated into nothingness.

Ye Chen descended to the ground, kneeling on one knee, his sword plunged into the earth to support his body, the other hand pressed against his knee, as he slowly stood upright, his indomitable aura still potent despite his weakened condition.

In his line of sight.

The thick-browed Luo Tian clasped his heavy sword, engaged with the black-faced woman from the black and white duo.

Luo Tian’s cultivation improved rapidly, now at the Peak of the Sea of Qi, yet there remained a significant gap when compared to the black-faced woman.

But Luo Tian’s swordsmanship was bold and aggressive, tying the black-faced woman in a knot.

”I’ll take this one, you focus on healing!”

”Storm Dragon Slash!”

Luo Tian shouted, then his body and sword became one, transforming into a tempest that swirled towards the black-faced woman.

Ye Chen did not involve himself in Luo Tian’s battle.

Nor did he opt to heal!

He maintained extreme focus, watching all around keenly.

Because now, those hiding in shadow should make their move!

The real battle had only just begun!
