Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 449: Five Moons Dragon Trap Array

Despite Ying Tiansheng's objections, Yi Qingwu ignored him, determined to suppress Ye Chen quickly and aid her Holy Son.

"Boom, boom, boom…"

She summoned a broken stone tablet. It expanded instantly, its fragmented divine patterns radiating dazzling light and fearsome killing intent, like a heavenly monument suppressing all.

Growing to the size of a mountain, it crashed toward Ye Chen. Frowning, he transformed into a Kunpeng and retreated with blinding speed, dodging the strike. The tablet plunged into the Endless Sea, unleashing towering waves.

Standing atop the waves, Ye Chen frowned. The fiancée was wild—shouting anything, fully cooperative, yet merciless in combat. Looking at the tablet, he felt both joy and a headache. Its unmatched killing aura confirmed it bore half the Battle Secret. Yi Qingwu hadn't lied—she'd brought the tablet. Worthy of the fiancée. But how could he seize it publicly, with Heavenly Intention Holy Son watching?

Since their first encounter, he and Yi Qingwu had always fought in private. Now, under so many eyes, especially Ying Tiansheng's, Ye Chen felt restrained, unsure how to proceed.

Should he overpower her and take the tablet? Or let her show off, then "ambush" her to seize it? The second option seemed better. It'd look like he won by trickery, not that she was inferior. Ying Tiansheng might even gift her more treasures to suppress him later, which she'd then deliver to him. A win-win-win.

Ye Chen didn't care about fame or invincible posturing. Losing to the fiancée wasn't a loss—he'd profit handsomely.

While he pondered, Yi Qingwu had her plan ready. Though her strike missed, her radiant lips curved confidently, her lively eyes brimming with control.

"The Kun Peng Treasure Technique is the world's fastest, but I'm prepared to suppress you. Even with it, you're doomed to fall! My fiancé doesn't need to act. This half-tablet alone can crush you! Ten thousand of you couldn't compare to him! Five Moons Dragon Trap Array, rise!"

She struck suddenly. A grand array with five divine moons surged from the void, its moonlight spreading to engulf them.

Spectators gasped. The Five Moons Dragon Trap Array sealed space and slowed enemies, countering speed-based foes. Unless Ye Chen's Kun Peng Treasure Technique had reached a transcendent level, ignoring arrays, he couldn't maneuver as freely. This could decide the battle. They expected him to dodge.

But Ye Chen's eyes lit up, showing no intent to flee. He was astonished. The fiancée was so prepared—first isolating them with her domain, and when it shattered from his overwhelming force, she had this array ready. She brought her own private "room" to their fight—Ye Chen was nearly moved to tears. But he couldn't be too obvious, or Ying Tiansheng might grow suspicious.

Ye Chen transformed into a Kun Peng, feigning escape. At the last moment, he "failed" to break free, helplessly engulfed by the array. Forces aligned with Heavenly Evolution Holy Land sighed. Most cultivators, favoring Yi Qingwu and relishing a prodigy's fall, were thrilled to see her trap Ye Chen, expecting a harsh lesson. Their only regret was the array's opacity, blocking the spiritual sense.

Hua Yunfei, watching Ye Chen "trapped," frowned, sensing something off, and held back.

Ying Tiansheng's eyes widened. Though his fiancée had ensnared the enemy, he wished he could help Ye Chen escape. He didn't want her alone with Ye Chen, even to suppress him. But a purple qi-formed divine mountain crashed down, accompanied by Hua Yunfei's amused voice: "Brother Ying seems reluctant to fight, but I can't stop!"

Ying Tiansheng's gaze turned cold. He shattered the mountain with a punch, as if breaking a galaxy, and charged at Hua Yunfei. He'd kill Hua Yunfei first, then break the array to slay Ye Chen, erasing all unease. Hua Yunfei calmly pointed, purple qi forming a Dao diagram to block him.

Suddenly, time seemed to freeze for an instant. Everyone halted, except Ying Tiansheng, who broke through the forming diagram, appearing before Hua Yunfei. His lips curled coldly, fist surging with heaven-shaking killing intent, collapsing the surrounding void. The next second, his punch would land.

As time resumed, spectators' eyes widened in horror. Ying Tiansheng had seemingly teleported from a kilometer away to Hua Yunfei's face, fist raised. The technique was terrifying, impossible to counter. Worse, Hua Yunfei's physique was clearly inferior. This punch might not just decide the fight—it could kill him. Hearts raced.

Ying Tiansheng smirked coldly. Killing and devouring Hua Yunfei, then Ye Chen, would make him the era's unrivaled first. But his brow furrowed.

Hua Yunfei couldn't escape but showed no intent to. Smiling, he said, "Besides the Battle Secret, Brother Ying also mastered the complete Movement Secret?"

Before finishing, he was obliterated. The punch destroyed everything, leaving the void unhealed for a long time, showcasing Ying Tiansheng's terrifying power.

The crowd gasped in disbelief. Hua Yunfei, one of the three giants, dead? This would shake the Great Yan Continent.

But Ying Tiansheng's face darkened. Hua Yunfei's final reaction and lack of residual essence felt wrong.

As expected, movement stirred on Heavenly Intention Holy Land's distant ship. A white-clad figure emerged from the cabin, his handsome face bearing a gentle smile, locking eyes with the ashen-faced Ying Tiansheng.
