Supreme Sword God

Chapter 351: Chapter 350: Support-Type Celestial Seal Spirit Master

Ye Chen walked through the mountain forest, his spiritual power spreading to cover a radius of five hundred meters.

The so-called green ghosts, a different race, excel at concealment, so one must always stay vigilant; otherwise, it’s easy to fall into their trap.

Having strong spiritual power is a significant advantage for Ye Chen.

Within a five hundred meters radius around him, any unusual activity could not escape his detection.

Of course, his spiritual power was enough to cover a much larger area, but that would lead to less sensitive sensing. A five hundred-meter range is optimal!

Should any green ghost be lurking within this range, it would certainly be discovered, no matter how fast or proficient in assassination the green ghosts were. This distance would give Ye Chen ample time to prepare.

”These green ghosts have been restrained in this area by the strong warriors of the True Martial Hall. Regardless of their actions, they ultimately have no way out, so they will definitely try to kill a few to act as scapegoats before they themselves are slain.

If there are many people, even if the green ghosts discover them, they would hesitate to act.

If the person is too strong, like Lu Feiyu, the green ghosts probably wouldn’t attack easily either.

But I, alone, with just a Primordial Embryo Realm aura, am simply the best target for the green ghost’s attack!”

At this thought, Ye Chen deliberately made a loud commotion. Wherever he went, sand and stones flew, his powerful aura unmasked.

In a thirty-mile range, looking for hidden green ghosts would be much trouble, so he might as well wait for the green ghosts to come to him!

An hour later.

The scorching sunlight was already shining down on the forest.

Treading cautiously through a certain valley, Ye Chen suddenly slowed down, a cold arc appearing at the corner of his mouth.

His idea was indeed correct.

A green ghost was approaching, just on his left, hidden among the thorn bushes.

Ye Chen, who slowed his pace, appeared as if fatigued and contemplating rest, but suddenly, he sharply changed direction. Golden light burst underfoot, instantly charging towards the thorn bush where the green ghost was concealed.

Green ghosts excel in concealment, assassination, and speed.

Ye Chen already saw through the green ghost’s concealment, offering it no chance to gain speed or assassination advantage!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen appeared beside the thorn bush, the Celestial Mark Sword bursting with light, he slashed down swiftly!

The hiding green ghost let out a low growl, its figure burst forth, holding a spear, hurriedly defending against Ye Chen’s slash.

”Clang!”

A crisp sound rang out.

Though the green ghost blocked Ye Chen’s strike, its body suffered immense force, crashing towards the ground heavily.

Ye Chen dove down, the true Wood Sword Intent projected from the Celestial Mark Sword, the Wood Extreme Thousand Entwined Sword unleashed, dense Sword Qi binding like vines, restricting the green ghost to a certain range.

The spear in the green ghost’s hand swung wide, its Mortal Transformation Realm power erupted, shattering the dense Sword Qi.

”A mere human in the Primordial Embryo Realm, die!”

Having shattered Ye Chen’s densely formed Sword Qi, the green ghost roared angrily, aiming its spear for Ye Chen’s head.

Ye Chen snorted coldly, his eyes brimming with icy sharpness. His earlier strike was just to deny the green ghost a chance to gain speed.

Faced with the stabbing spear, Ye Chen shifted in mid-air, stepping swiftly to appear on the other side of the green ghost.

”Swish!”

Fierce sword light swept across the green ghost’s neck.

The green ghost’s head soared upward.

Ye Chen swung his sword again, flames raging fiercely!

A few breaths later.

Only ashes were left on the ground and a melted spear.

The True Martial Hall hadn’t specified how to confirm the kill count. Ye Chen thought Inspector Su must have a way to monitor every participant, but to be safe, he kept the spear.

At this moment.

A light screen appeared before Su Yun, with Ye Chen’s figure shown on it.

The scene of Ye Chen slaying the green ghost was thoroughly seen by Su Yun.

”Even a speed-specialized green ghost, even at the Mortal Transformation Realm, couldn’t surpass him, and Ye Chen clearly has rich combat experience. His sword techniques are quite domineering.” Su Yun commented.

The man in silver armor added, ”He’s been deliberately exposing his position, actively attracting the green ghosts. At first, I thought he was too bold, but now it seems he’s very confident.”

Su Yun nodded, liking Ye Chen more and more.

A promising talent!

Yet, immediately, she had a bit of a headache.

Tian Bugui is Ye Chen’s sponsor; Tian Bugui has terrible luck, recommending candidates only for them to die... hopefully, Ye Chen will be an exception!

Nightfall came.

Ye Chen found a spot and built a fire.

Other participants would be cautious, but Ye Chen wanted the green ghosts to deliver themselves.

Today, he killed two green ghosts using this method, not bad at all.

Among the nine examinees, if everyone could kill two green ghosts, the evaluation might as well end directly.

Therefore, Ye Chen did not consider two to be few, as more than half of the nine likely wouldn’t manage even one green ghost head.

As the fire rose, Ye Chen prepared the wild rabbit he caught casually, and began roasting it over the fire.

Suddenly, he faintly heard the sounds of a distant battle.

Ye Chen instantly got up, grabbing the Celestial Mark Sword, and dashed towards the source of the battle sounds.

Where there’s battle, there are green ghosts. Another kill would bring his count to three!

......

In the dark, at the foot of a hill.

A round-faced young girl with braided horns, Mu Qingqing, was enveloped in golden light.

Above her was a projection of a golden spirit seal.

Mu Qingqing’s face was pale, being repeatedly attacked by a green ghost of the Mortal Transformation Realm, unable to fight back!

And at this moment.

Su Yun was standing atop the hill, looking at the combat below, a hint of helplessness on her face.

This little girl had immense potential, the Seven Group Spirit Patterns gathered in a Celestial Spirit Seal, yet... it was purely supportive...

In truth, even with purely supportive abilities, she could apply the boosting effects on herself, not without fighting power, but... this little girl had almost no combat experience.

”The Mu Family only has Elder Mu and this little girl left. Elder Mu has sheltered her excessively, causing this situation.” Su Yun sighed, preparing to intervene to save her when suddenly, she glanced in another direction and immediately dismissed her intention.

At this moment.

Ye Chen had arrived, somewhat shocked by the scene before him: the delicate small girl with braided horns was actually a Celestial Seal Spirit Master...

Though, for a Celestial Seal Spirit Master to end up in such a situation, it was truly pathetic?

”Boom!”

Mu Qingqing’s body was sent flying by the green ghost’s punch, the green ghost letting out an excited low roar, leaping to shatter Mu Qingqing’s spirit seal defense completely.

”Swish!”

Just as the green ghost was about to pounce near Mu Qingqing, a stroke of sword light tore through the dark night, directly severing the fist extended by the green ghost.

Immediately after, Ye Chen flashed forward, standing between Mu Qingqing and the green ghost.

The green ghost, with one hand severed, its green barbed face twisted.

”Damn human runt, how dare you sneak attack me, I’ll devour you alive!” the green ghost roared.

At this moment, Mu Qingqing came to stand beside Ye Chen, full of gratitude.

Ye Chen said, ”Little sis, step back a bit, don’t get in the way.”

”...” Mu Qingqing’s face turned from gratitude to stubbornness, saying, ”I’m not a burden, I can make your weapon larger, your body tougher, and your combat power more enduring!”

As she spoke, Mu Qingqing swiftly formed seals with her hands, from her Celestial Spirit Seal, a rain of golden light fell upon Ye Chen.
