Supreme Sword God

Chapter 526: Chapter 525: Qingyun Rank 5, Battle with Guo Tian!

Ye Chen’s words were akin to grinding Qi Shengjing’s face into the ground and slapping him ruthlessly!

Qi Shengjing’s expression was so gloomy it seemed like water might drip out.

What sort of person was he?

Even though he was no longer the Patriarch of the Qi Family, he still made all major and minor decisions for them.

Yet, Ye Chen’s words left him utterly speechless.

His son, Qi Cultivator, died at Ye Chen’s hands, and the Qi Family didn’t dare utter a peep. To quell the anger of the True Martial Hall, he even relinquished his position as Patriarch, erased Qi Cultivator’s name from the family register, and personally ordered his corpse to be fed to dogs!

Regarding the matter of Qi Cultivator, though furious inside, he dared not show it.

This time, he finally found a highly talented individual to adopt as his foster son, hoping to use an honorable means to eliminate Ye Chen and vent his pent-up resentment.

But the result was already clear.

His foster son Qi Changfeng was dead too!

The Qi Family had not been idle lately, even paying a hefty price to recruit numerous Qingyun List prodigies as Guest Officials, but none were stronger than Qi Changfeng.

Even Qi Changfeng was dead; it was even less likely any of those Guest Officials could be a match for Ye Chen.

Moreover, Ye Chen blatantly challenged them, stating if they wanted a fight, it would be a battle to the death. The Qi Family’s Guest Officials would obviously not risk their lives for such trivial matters!

Seeing Qi Shengjing remain silent, Ye Chen couldn’t be bothered to spare him another glance and continued, ”I’m still in pretty good shape; I’m not stepping down. Whoever wants to challenge me can come up.”

”Ye Chen!”

On the high platform, Shi Fengchun spoke, ”You’ve fought two rounds; take a break and let others show themselves.”

Ye Chen chuckled and said, ”Hall Master, I think it’s better to finish all at once.”

Shi Fengchun glanced at Ye Chen and decided to let him be.

After all, it seemed this boy’s condition was indeed still strong, but Shi Fengchun added, ”Continue if you wish, but remember, no more battles to the death.”

Having dealt with Qi Family’s people, proceeding to kill others would have too much impact and needed to be controlled.

Ye Chen nodded, then looked toward the preparation area, saying, ”Since no one is challenging me, I’ll start the challenge. Guo Tian, it’s your turn, come on up!”

The people in the preparation area had anticipated Ye Chen challenging Guo Tian because, even before the fight started, he had already made his intentions clear.

But the spectators widened their eyes once more!

”Guo Tian is ranked fifth on the Qingyun List, incredibly powerful. If Ye Chen wants to break into the top ten, doesn’t he need to aim as high as this right away?”

”Looks like Ye Chen has completely clashed with the Holy Fist Sect, but frankly, even if Ye Chen didn’t challenge Guo Tian, a fight between them was bound to break out sooner or later.”

”Guo Fenglin suffered huge losses twice at Ye Chen’s hands, even disgracing the Holy Fist Sect. As Guo Fenglin’s brother, Guo Tian, who’s a leading figure among the young generation of Holy Fist Sect, always intended to settle the score with Ye Chen!”

”This year’s Cyan Cloud Banquet, comparing to previous ones, has initially shown an unprecedented tension. Such a thrilling battle between Qingyun List’s top prodigies broke out so quickly, it’s truly spectacular.”

”Hahaha, this time, I wouldn’t dare to rashly predict the outcome anymore. Ye Chen’s strength is far beyond what I imagined, he might really have a chance. I’m eagerly looking forward to this fierce battle between him and Guo Tian!”

In the preparation area, Guo Tian snorted, stepping forward.

”Boom!”

A sudden burst of explosive sound erupted, like the first thunderbolt of spring, deafening!

Guo Tian’s figure appeared on the ring in an instant.

”Ye Chen, since you dare challenge me, I’ll fulfill your wish!” Guo Tian roared, his tone revealing long-suppressed anger!

”Challenging you doesn’t require any courage.” Ye Chen replied flatly.

Guo Tian’s eyes narrowed slightly, his fists clenched as enormous fist prints enveloped them!

”Saint King Fist, power condensed to their fists. Guo Tian’s grasp of Saint King Fist has reached the Great Success Realm!”

”Compared to Guo Fenglin’s Saint King Fist, Guo Tian’s is simply child’s play; it’s not just a gap in power, but the understanding of true martial arts is the biggest difference!”

”As expected of Holy Fist Sect’s younger generation leader, to cultivate Celestial Tier lower-grade Saint King Fist to this extent at the peak of Unity Realm, truly unheard of!”

A string of gasps rang out.

Guo Tian, after his power erupted, wasted no words. The ground beneath him exploded, propelling his body like a massive crossbow arrow towards Ye Chen.

Know that this arena was specifically built for Qingyun List prodigy duels; earlier, Ye Chen fought two rounds without even damaging it, yet now, with just Guo Tian’s forward momentum, the arena floor shattered, showcasing his terrifying strength!

Ye Chen’s pupils tightened.

Finally, a tough opponent!

The fighting spirit within him soared, and with a slash, he launched his attack!

Guo Tian, already nearing Ye Chen, threw a punch. His fist, covered with giant fist prints, emitted a destructive aura. That violent power collided with the sword Ye Chen had slashed out.

”Boom!”

The terrifying power roared, Ye Chen’s sword penetrated halfway into the fist print before it was halted, pinned by Guo Tian’s strength!

And Guo Tian’s other fist was already pounding down on Ye Chen.

At the crucial moment, Ye Chen shouted coldly, the Seven-Star Sword Array whistled, shooting towards Guo Tian’s fist.

Simultaneously, Ye Chen’s hand holding the sword exploded with power, a Cyan Dragon Illusion entwined the sword, bursting Guo Tian’s fist print!

Guo Tian’s other fist, with immense power, crushed all seven swords forming the Seven-Star Sword Array.

Rampant shockwaves swept across.

Guo Tian’s figure retreated violently, stamping out a series of deep footprints.

Ye Chen thrust his sword into the arena floor, yet even so, his body slid back dozens of meters, leaving a long furrow in the ground with his Celestial Mark Sword!

Their first round of engagement had already sparked fierce fireworks!

”Ye Chen’s sword... shattered!”

Someone exclaimed!

All eyes turned to the scattered seven top-grade spiritual swords on the arena.

None of the seven swords were intact!

Some were riddled with cracks, some twisted like pretzels, others directly snapped into pieces!

Ye Chen wasn’t surprised by this.

No matter how extraordinary those seven swords were, they were, after all, just top-grade spiritual swords.

Ye Chen had used those seven swords to battle in realms beyond this world, fought fiercely with the Demon Race’s Prince Moss, dueled Lv Baishuang in Frost City, and clashed with three psychopathic killers from the Blood Robe Tower...

The seven swords had long been overloaded.

Guo Tian sneered, ”Ye Chen, without the Seven-Star Sword Array, your combat power is greatly diminished. What will you use to fight me next?”

”I’ll defeat you just as easily without the sword array!”

”Arrogant!” Guo Tian snapped angrily, charging toward Ye Chen again.

His cold eyes, flowing black hair, his right fist punched out, and the flaming fist print covering his fist burst with radiant fire, like a gigantic blazing sun, slamming towards Ye Chen!

Ye Chen’s Celestial Mark Sword, still inserted into the ground, suddenly rose, sweeping soil and rock into a massive soil dragon that roared toward Guo Tian’s fist print.

This was no longer merely Earth Extreme Dragon Sword, but Ye Chen’s powerful sword move created by combining Earth Extreme Dragon Sword with the Cyan Heaven Dragon Transformation Technique!

The soil dragon, imbued with True Dragon Divine Rhyme, greatly enhanced the sword’s efficacy in both offense and defense!
