Supreme Sword God

Chapter 313: Chapter 312: Blasting a Legend to Death!

Ye Chen, who rushed into the mountain cave, did not hesitate at all. With a leap, he jumped into the hollow that led straight to the foot of the mountain.

Almost as soon as Ye Chen jumped down, Shen Mingfeng from the Thousand Spirits Sect came in pursuit.

”Do you think hiding below means I can’t do anything to you? No matter where you hide, you can’t escape from my grasp!”

Shen Mingfeng’s expression was ferocious. After a fierce shout, he leaped down as well.

”Buzz!”

Because Shen Mingfeng did not know the exact location, he instantly triggered the array barrier on the way down.

Powerful array forces bombarded Shen Mingfeng.

But Shen Mingfeng remained fearless. His force was overwhelmingly strong, directly ignoring the impact of these array barriers as he charged down aggressively.

”I didn’t expect there to be man-made array barriers within Lingyun Mountain. Ye Chen, do you think you can use these array barriers to save your life? Foolish dream. I said I’d kill you, so you must die!”

Shen Mingfeng continued to roar in anger. He could already faintly see Ye Chen’s figure in his eyes.

At this moment.

Ye Chen controlled his body, maintaining his suspension in the air.

This position was the central hub area of the grand array set up by Master Legs.

Only here could the power of this grand array be pushed to its limits, able to kill even those in the Heaven-Reaching Realm.

Ye Chen’s spiritual power surged like tidal waves, continuously flowing toward the surroundings.

Bright lights began to flicker.

In an instant, the dark hollow within the mountain became brightly illuminated.

Shen Mingfeng, who had already dived not far from Ye Chen, displayed a scornful sneer on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Ye Chen as if he were looking at a trivial ant.

”This broken array can’t stop me!”

Shen Mingfeng shouted, forming a handprint.

The palm of the handprint suddenly opened like a giant beast with its maw agape, its sharp fangs glinting with a metallic cold, dark sheen.

The five fingers of the handprint transformed into giant pythons.

This move was unbearably eerie and intimidating.

Others would likely be terrified.

However, Ye Chen’s determination far surpassed that of ordinary people. His hands quickly formed incantations, and beams of light shot out.

”Boom, boom, boom!”

The handprint unleashed by Shen Mingfeng shattered under the impact of these beams, and then all the beams converged again, forming a cage that directly trapped Shen Mingfeng within.

Shen Mingfeng’s face changed drastically.

This turn of events was entirely unanticipated.

Having noticed something was amiss here, Shen Mingfeng had dismissed it, but now... he was actually trapped.

The power within Shen Mingfeng surged like a volcanic eruption, like unrelenting waves, unleashing his most powerful assault, causing the cage to tremble violently, but he couldn’t break through the confinement!

”Ye Chen, do you want to wear me down? You’re dreaming!” Shen Mingfeng shouted, ”Trapping me here, you can’t escape either. Once you leave, I’ll immediately free myself. By then, killing you would be as easy as squashing an ant! If you don’t leave and keep controlling the array here, I want to see how long your strength can last!”

Though trapped, Shen Mingfeng was very angry, yet not at all worried about his safety. Killing Ye Chen was merely a matter of time.

Looking at Shen Mingfeng trapped in the array cage, there was no fear on Ye Chen’s face either.

”Originally, I thought I’d be very excited to kill someone in the Heaven-Reaching Realm, but now it seems just so,” Ye Chen said indifferently.

”Do you think you can kill me? You’re overreaching. You have no idea how powerful the Heaven-Reaching Realm truly is, and you’ll never have the chance to know!” Shen Mingfeng sneered harshly.

Ye Chen sneered back, his face suddenly resolute. His fingertips crossed inwardly, forming a peculiar handprint.

In the next instant, the array cage holding Shen Mingfeng exploded with dazzling light.

Just moments ago, Shen Mingfeng had been arrogant, but now his face reflected fear.

A sense of mortal danger rose in his heart.

”Die!”

Ye Chen shouted violently, and his handprint shifted once again.

”No!”

With all his might, Shen Mingfeng let out a final, indignant roar, and then the array cage trapping him exploded with a loud bang.

”Boom!”

The peak of Lingyun Mountain was blown to dust, and the surrounding space was shattered to pieces.

The entire mountain body was riddled with massive cracks, and large boulders rolled down the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, Yu Sheng was so shocked by the scene that his jaw nearly hit the ground.

Ye Chen... actually caused such a commotion!

Even a strong figure in the Heaven-Reaching Realm, at the epicenter of that explosion... would be utterly destroyed with no hope of survival.

Even though Yu Sheng stood at the foot of the mountain, far from the explosion’s epicenter, he was still deeply shaken.

”This brat... really succeeded in killing a powerful figure in the Legendary Realm...” As Yu Sheng uttered this, he felt parched, his heartbeat quickened, experiencing a long-lost fervor!

Then, the excitement on Yu Sheng’s face was replaced by a wave of sorrow.

Such a terrifying burst of power... Ye Chen could not have escaped unscathed either. In order to kill Shen Mingfeng, a Heaven-Reaching figure, he sacrificed his own life!

Was it worth it?

Killing a strong figure in the Heaven-Reaching Realm was indeed very hard, and succeeding had great significance.

But compared to Ye Chen’s future, it was not worth it!

Having lived many years, Yu Sheng regarded many things in the world with a certain indifference, but every time he saw Ye Chen, he was once more astounded!

This was a young man with monstrous talent and an unlimited future.

In the eyes of Yu Sheng, Ouyang Shang, and Yang Tianji, even the sky itself was too small for Ye Chen. His brilliance could illuminate the world!

But now...

Just to kill Shen Mingfeng, a figure in the Heaven-Reaching Realm, Ye Chen buried his own future...

The more Yu Sheng thought about it, the more uncomfortable and distressed he felt.

Such a promising young man... ended up on a path of self-destruction.

”Cough, cough!”

Suddenly, the sound of coughing emerged from behind Yu Sheng.

Yu Sheng turned sharply, his injury causing him to cough as well, blood spewing profusely!

”Dean Yu, are you alright?” Ye Chen, covered in blood and still coughing up blood, forced a smile and asked.

Yu Sheng’s emotions rose and fell dramatically, his breath unstable, causing even more intense coughing up of blood. He nodded with difficulty, ”Not bad, brat. You sure are tough!”

Ye Chen smiled bitterly.

Just now, he almost died too.

After triggering the final, most powerful assault of Master Legs’s array blockade, he crushed Black Widow’s token to teleport ten miles away, then used the Heaven-Ascending Step to sprint, still being heavily injured by the ensuing blast!

Barely escaping with his life, he worried Yu Sheng might be buried alive by the boulders falling at the mountain’s base, so Ye Chen had to grit his teeth and follow through.

After all, it’s Fatty’s biological grandfather—dying not by a Heaven-Reaching guy but by getting crushed by rocks... would be hard to explain to Fatty later.

”Dean Yu, let’s move to another place. Lots of rocks are coming down...” Ye Chen suggested, spitting out another mouthful of blood.

Yu Sheng let out a grunt, trying to walk but then falling heavily to the ground, his body spurting blood.

Ye Chen, helpless, used his sword as a crutch and directly grabbed Yu Sheng’s ankle with his other hand, dragging him along!

There was no choice; being able to walk was good enough at this point, and he lacked the strength to carry him.

Yu Sheng’s feeling had never been as bad as it was at that moment...

Did an old man not deserve dignity?!

Thinking it over, dignity could be put aside. If they didn’t leave, they might actually be crushed to death by falling rocks from the mountaintop!
