Supreme Sword God

Chapter 559: Chapter 558: An Enormous Trap, Lid-Blowing Coffin

On the Bridge of Life and Death, the guys rushing towards Ye Chen wore expressions of bewilderment.

They actually all knew that Ye Chen wouldn’t be stupid enough to wait for death.

But in their view, at most, Ye Chen would immediately flee for his life.

However, Ye Chen actually took an interest in the Yellow Spring Water...

At this moment, they all guessed that Ye Chen was planning to use the Yellow Spring Water to sever the Bridge of Life and Death.

Yet, not one of them was afraid.

Foolish!

Ignorant!

Without the power of the Saint Realm, it’s impossible to control the Yellow Spring Water!

Yu Tianyi, who was at the forefront, had already reached the middle of the Bridge of Life and Death, a cruel smile appearing on his lips.

But at this moment, Yu Zhan, who was closely following behind Yu Tianyi, shouted, ”Seventh Prince, retreat!”

As soon as the words fell, Yu Zhan’s arm shot out fiercely, grabbing Yu Tianyi’s arm. Yu Tianyi’s body completely lost control and was immediately pulled back by Yu Zhan.

”Retreat!”

Luo Zuo, although not clear on what was happening, saw the Silver Wing Race retreating and followed suit. It couldn’t be wrong!

Almost at the moment they retreated, the Sword Qi, under the control of Ye Chen, shot into the Yellow Spring Water, all bursting forth explosively.

These Sword Qi, even with the support of the ancient clan’s essence, appeared much more illusory, floating lightly, having lost their power and sharpness.

But every strand of Sword Qi was tainted with a wisp of Yellow Spring Water!

The Sword Qi landed on the Bridge of Life and Death.

”Crack!”

The Bridge of Life and Death instantly emitted a crisp sound.

A large amount of Sword Qi fell on the Bridge of Life and Death, the cracking sound of the bridge breaking became continuous, crackling...

”Boom!”

The entire Bridge of Life and Death shattered with a roar!

”Ah!”

A shrill scream echoed.

”Splash!”

The sound of something falling into water resounded.

Then, there was no more movement!

Ye Chen stood on the shore, gazing at the opposite side, with a hint of regret on his face.

Only managed to kill two...

One was Su Dongliu, and the other was Su Dongliu’s lackey.

He had previously vowed that the next time he saw Su Dongliu, he would certainly kill him. Unexpectedly, encountering both Su Dongliu and Huang Yu seemed hopeless, yet he did end up killing that fool!

Using so much of the ancient clan’s essence to kill the two weakest ones seemed like a huge loss, but on second thought, it wasn’t too bad — he managed to block all these formidable enemies on the opposite side, which would reduce a lot of trouble while exploring opportunities in the Inner Tomb Area.

Yu Tianyi and the others still needed to find another Bridge of Life and Death and verify its authenticity, which would undoubtedly delay them for more than half a day.

Half a day was enough for him to accomplish many things!

”Yu Zhan...”

Ye Chen muttered.

It was Yu Zhan who had foiled the plan just now!

He Qiu’s information was indeed correct; Yu Zhan of the Silver Wing Race was exceptionally strong.

If it weren’t for Yu Zhan’s early vigilance, even Yu Tianyi would have died!

Then, Ye Chen turned and left, hurrying to find opportunities to enhance his strength. Once his strength increased, dealing with these guys wouldn’t require such brainpower anymore!

Just directly cut them down head-on!

Across the shore.

Yu Tianyi’s face was livid with rage; that was too close, he almost died!

Yu Zhan said, ”Seventh Prince, this Ye Chen is not simple at all; this time, we absolutely cannot let him leave the Celestial Extinction Ancient Tomb alive. I have a premonition that if he doesn’t die, he will surely become a formidable enemy to our Silver Wing Race!”

At the side.

Luo You’s face was pale.

He had already fallen.

It was his brother Luo Zuo who pulled him up, dragging him back from the Ghost Gate.

”Brother, I must kill Ye Chen!” Luo You roared!

Luo Zuo hummed in acknowledgment, his expression serious.

Huang Yu’s legs were still trembling; he had thought of using Ye Chen, yet nearly got himself killed by him...

At this moment, Huang Yu suddenly recalled the questions Ye Chen had asked before stepping onto the Bridge of Life and Death.

It turns out, Ye Chen wasn’t afraid of being ambushed after stepping onto the bridge; he was looking for a way...

So... Ye Chen severing the Bridge of Life and Death was actually an idea from Su Dongliu’s lackey; otherwise, Ye Chen wouldn’t have known how to do it at all.

Of course, Ye Chen being able to manipulate the Yellow Spring Water... was equally astounding!

......

On the other side.

Ye Chen, having entered the Inner Tomb Area, fully expanded his spiritual power, his pupil power erupting as he activated the Martial Arts Celestial Eye.

”Master Legs, where did your unfortunate friend die?” Ye Chen transmitted as he entered the Sword Tomb.

”Southeast, I’ll remind you when we get there; there’s a great opportunity.” Master Legs’ voice resounded.

”Besides the Scripture of Ten Thousand Poisons from your unfortunate friend, is there anything else?”

”Nonsense, he went there for the opportunity.”

”What opportunity?”

”I don’t know, he didn’t tell me, I just know he died there.”

Ye Chen: ”...”

Master Legs being unreliable, just as usual.

On the journey heading southeast, Ye Chen pushed his speed to the limit, needing to seize the time. The worst fear was that if he found an opportunity, the exit of the Celestial Extinction Ancient Tomb might close... that would be frustrating enough to vomit blood!

Ye Chen ran at full speed for over three days.

During the journey, he was so exhausted that he had to rest a few times.

Along the way, he even discovered several places that clearly had opportunities, but Master Legs directly told Ye Chen to ignore them...

Inside the Sword Tomb.

Luo Qingyi glanced at Master Legs and said, ”You’ve tormented him enough, but if he ends up making this trip for nothing, given his petty nature, he’ll definitely remember it for a long time!”

”There really is a big opportunity...”

”You don’t even know anything, what are you talking about crap!”

”That unlucky friend of mine is a bona fide madman. If it weren’t a major opportunity, he wouldn’t care at all...”

”You knew the location; you didn’t really go check it out back then?”

”That guy poisoned me and then told me, saying if he didn’t make it out, I should go collect his corpse... by the time the poison wore off and I rushed over, I just saw his body, and the Celestial Extinction Ancient Tomb was about to close... I had to run.”

Speaking of which, Master Legs suddenly shouted excitedly: ”Stop, stop, we’ve arrived, stop!”

Outside, Ye Chen stopped at once and looked around—there was nothing!

”Ahead, there’s a rock. Split it open, and there’s an entrance. It’s the rock I blocked up.”

Ye Chen looked forward, and indeed there was a rock as big as a small mountain.

Looking closely with the Martial Arts Celestial Eye, he did find an entrance under the rock.

Ye Chen flashed forward, and with a swoosh, the Celestial Mark Sword was unsheathed, bringing a splendid sword light and slashing at the giant rock!

”Boom!”

The giant rock split in two, revealing the entrance at the base.

But at the moment the entrance appeared.

A dark green light shot towards Ye Chen!

Ye Chen reacted swiftly, swinging out a horizontal slash.

The Dragon and Phoenix Sword Qi burst out, slicing the dark green light away.

The dark green light scattered a lot, revealing that inside the light there was a person...

The whole body’s skin was dark green, eyes also dark green, and even covered in long dark green hair...

”It turned into a poison corpse...” Master Legs’ voice echoed in Ye Chen’s mind, ”Ye Chen, this is that unlucky friend Little Poison Bug, feel free to chop him up!”

”Little Poison Bug...” Ye Chen called out to see if there was any response.

”You... you’re that bastard Tian Can... no, you’re not... I’m Little Poison King, not Little Poison Bug!” That dark green figure stammered out.

There actually was a response? Ye Chen quickly said, ”Tian Can sent me to take you out...”

If he could avoid fighting, that would be best, because this guy’s situation was a bit odd.

”Take me... out? ...Tian Can couldn’t be so kind-hearted... he’d love to see me dead... back then, I obviously had a breath left, and he just didn’t save me... making all my preparations for soul snatching useless... finally, I had to use poison techniques to turn myself into a poison corpse... where is Tian Can, let him come, I want to kill him!”

Ye Chen looked bewildered, sending his voice into the Sword Tomb, ”Master Legs, are you sure this is your friend?”

”Well, alright, back then he tried to kill me, and I wanted to kill him... that’s how it is...” Master Legs’ voice seemed to lack confidence.

Ye Chen was speechless for a moment.

Inside the Sword Tomb, Luo Qingyi also wanted to cut Master Legs to pieces, feeling that this bastard had been speaking nonsense earlier as well.

”Where is that bastard Tian Can, let him come out... I want to kill him, I want to tear him to pieces! Aaaah!” The poison corpse fell into a frenzy, with that dark green light over his body becoming even more intense.

”Boom!”

Ye Chen immediately unleashed the flame power from his Dantian.

That dark green light contained terrifying poison.

Ye Chen didn’t feel his poison-resistant body could withstand it, but with the fused beast flame, the Red Flame Spirit Flame could burn some of the poison gas.

”Master Legs, you’re screwing with me, what do I do, I really feel like I can’t beat it!” Ye Chen sent his voice into the Sword Tomb, feeling extremely frustrated.

Luo Qingyi also looked at Master Legs coldly.

”I said, I’ve said it all... it wasn’t intentional... I lost my mind, my spirit is attached to two legs, a lot of memories are somewhat incomplete... some not-so-important things, my memory is fuzzy...

Including when Ye Chen was at the Great Zhou Dynasty going to Lingyun Mountain, I only gave guidance based on a vague impression...”

Luo Qingyi: ”...”

Ye Chen: ”...”

So, it really wasn’t Master Legs’ fault, he just made a well-intentioned mistake.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, luckily nothing went wrong that time at Lingyun Mountain, after all, that time, with Master Legs’ previous arrangements, they managed to kill a Heaven-Reaching Realm expert.

If something had gone wrong that time... Ye Chen didn’t even dare to think of the consequences!

”Bring out that bastard Tian Can, I want to kill him... if he doesn’t come out, you die!” The poison corpse roared continuously, baring teeth and claws, like a wild beast!

”Ye Chen, trust me one more time, chop him up... there really is a very important treasure inside!” Master Legs’ voice sounded once again in Ye Chen’s mind.

”Chopping is necessary, if I don’t chop him, he’ll chase after me...” Ye Chen murmured, raising the Celestial Mark Sword, terrifying flames instantly enshrouding the blade!

Just as Ye Chen prepared to make a move.

Suddenly, another change occurred!

”Boom!”

A terrifying force descended from the sky, smashing into that poison corpse.

The poison corpse that was clawing and roaring a moment before, instantly turned into a pile of sludge.

An old man with disheveled hair, tattered clothing, and a hunched figure appeared in front of Ye Chen’s eyes.

Ye Chen looked at the old man, his face filled with astonishment!

Wasn’t this the mad old man he tricked into confronting the Heavenly Dao in the taboo area of the Flame Desert?

How... how is he here?!

Wasn’t the Celestial Extinction Ancient Tomb only supposed to allow those below the Heaven-Reaching Realm to enter?

The mad old man was also scrutinizing Ye Chen with a look of discontent, saying, ”Taiyan First Transition, yet you’ve fused such inferior beast flame, considering you’re supposed to be our sect’s Saint Heir, if the founder knew, he’d turn in his grave!”
