Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1043: Chapter 1042: Heaven-Ascending Step, A Thousand Miles Within Reach

Ye Chen challenged Mingkong to a duel, instantly attracting countless gazes.

A large crowd flew to the vicinity.

Being stared at by so many people, Mingkong’s expression became even uglier.

Duel with Ye Chen?

Last time on Divine Mirror Island, it was a duel and suffered a big loss.

Although Mingkong felt that last time he was too careless, he... doesn’t dare to go against Ye Chen again!

"You little brat, I am a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser, with a high status on par with the Great Emperor. An ant like you, what qualifications do you have to duel with me?" Mingkong shouted loudly.

Ye Chen sneered, "If you don’t dare, you don’t dare. Why look for excuses, you cowardly waste!"

A Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser being insulted like this, the onlookers didn’t find it strange.

Because, the one cursing him was the famously daring Ye Chen.

How long has it been since he came to the Celestial Burial Sea Inner Sea?

The two Great Emperors of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect have been scolded by him.

The Celestial Child Emperor of Celestial Child Divine Island was even scolded harshly, and Ye Chen killed the Celestial Child Emperor’s daughter right in front of him.

In the forbidden area, the Hentian Emperor of the Evil Spirit Camp was also scolded into a rage by Ye Chen.

Mingkong at this moment was also infuriated to the point of exploding, angrily shouting, "Ye Chen, you’ve provoked me time and again. Today, I will make sure you have no place to be buried!"

Ye Chen’s thoughts shifted, and the seventy-two holy swords floating around him slowly rose, the sword tips pointing directly at Mingkong.

"Come on, try it."

His tone was filled with deep contempt for Mingkong.

Mingkong gritted his teeth: "The Celestial Blade Emperor is dead, the Celestial Cauldron Emperor is trapped in the hall, Chi Mutian behind you hasn’t shown up yet. Ye Chen, today no one can save you!"

Ye Chen: "Cowards sure love to talk trash. I don’t need anyone to save me, but as for you, if it weren’t for Old Dog Heaven Ten Thousand and Tong Dagou last time, you wouldn’t even have the chance to yap here. Today, no one can save you either!"

"Kill him!"

Mingkong hollered.

In the next moment, one of the Emperor Realm powerhouses guarding Mingkong suddenly charged forward, unleashing a terrifying force akin to a real-world crushing towards Ye Chen!

Ye Chen’s sword array shot out, transforming into an endless starry sky to counter that powerful domain.

"Boom!"

Huge explosions echoed continuously.

Ye Chen’s sword array was shattered into pieces.

This old-school Emperor Realm power was indeed terrifying. Ye Chen knew very well that even if he used all his trump cards, he couldn’t match this kind of powerhouse.

At most, he could only handle the garbage from the first or second tier of the Emperor Realm.

On Celestial Child Divine Island, facing Mingyao, if it weren’t for that madwoman losing her mind, it wouldn’t have been so easy to resolve.

Although Ye Chen was clearly at a disadvantage confronting an old-school Emperor Realm, it still shocked every spectator.

Ye Chen, so young, not even yet a Saint, was already able to contend with the Emperor Realm, truly overturning the Cultivation Realm’s understanding.

Mingkong’s face darkened.

He was glad he didn’t duel with Ye Chen.

The current Ye Chen was completely different from what he was on Divine Mirror Island.

In such a short time, Ye Chen’s improvement was terrifying!

This child must be eliminated, or else there will be endless trouble.

Mingkong immediately looked at another old-school Emperor Realm beside him and said, "Take action, kill him, don’t give him any chance!"

Immediately after, another old-school Emperor Realm charged forward, spreading a domain towards Ye Chen.

The domains of the two old-school Emperor Realms were like real worlds, their power immense, crushing the void, which kept trembling.

Ye Chen, protected by seventy-two holy swords, unleashed round after round of assaults from his sword array, releasing various Dharma Aspects. Even though at a clear disadvantage, his Martial Arts Divine Eye could discern the fluctuations in his opponent’s strength, finding the most suitable breakthrough, always turning disaster to fortune at critical moments!

The battle roared.

Exclamations of amazement resounded around.

"Ye Chen... is destined to lose anyway."

"What a pity, such a prodigy, to die here today, cutting off his future."

"He only has himself to blame, too arrogant and reckless, ignoring everyone. Without truly growing to disregard the rules of the Celestial Burial Sea, he committed act after act challenging them."

"Indeed, a tall tree catches the wind. His sharpness is too excessive, and being overly rigid leads to breaking."

Various comments emerged.

Mingkong’s mind was at ease, laughing hysterically, "Ye Chen, you lowly ant, how dare you challenge me? Without me having to act, you’ll die. A Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser is not someone you can contend with!"

Ye Chen sneered and shouted, "Old Thief Mingkong, wait for me. Next time we meet, I’ll take your dog life!"

As the words fell.

With a loud bang, the four-turn Taiyan Fire Seal blasted open a gap in the domain in front of him.

Behind Ye Chen, the Kunpeng Dharma Aspect materialized, its enormous wings blotted out the sky. Ye Chen’s body immediately transformed into a stream of light, fleeing far away.

Mingkong shouted, "Chase him, today no matter what, he must be killed. We can’t let him escape!"

The two old-school Emperor Realms immediately pursued Ye Chen.

Sensing the two old-school Emperor Realm pursuers behind him, Ye Chen’s lips curled with cold intent.

Before seeking out Mingkong, he had already discussed with Liu Mubai and Xu Yanran that if opportunities arise, seize them; if not, then create them.

Now.

The opportunity had been created.

The two old-school Emperor Realms beside Old Thief Mingkong had been lured away.

If he suddenly returned to Old Thief Mingkong, Mingkong would definitely be dead.

While leading the two old-school Emperor Realms swiftly across the skies of the Celestial Burial Sea, Ye Chen transmitted his voice into the Sword Tomb.

"Master Legs, how do you use the fourth level of the Heaven-Ascending Step, Heaven’s Source at a Glance? Quickly tell me, I’m being chased by two dogs, and there’s a shameless old dog waiting for me to cut him down."

Master Legs: "Couldn’t you learn it in advance? The fourth level of Heaven-Ascending Step, Heaven’s Source at a Glance, is profound and complex. It’s not something you can grasp in a short moment!"

Ye Chen: "I didn’t have time before, nor did I think much. Now that I can use it, learning it temporarily works just as well. Master Legs, stop rambling, hurry up."

In the Sword Tomb, Master Legs, although quite upset, knew the situation was urgent. He transmitted, "Heaven’s Source at a Glance, a step across a thousand miles, involves speed and space..."

Master Legs said a lot.

He explained very thoroughly.

Ye Chen listened attentively.

Basically, whatever Master Legs said, he fully understood.

Eating so many Enlightenment Tea leaves wasn’t for nothing.

Especially after comprehending a complete World-Suppressing Celestial Stele and obtaining a mysterious breathing technique, everything about Ye Chen had been elevated to an immense level.

What Master Legs said was profound and complex, but to Ye Chen, it was exceedingly simple and easy to understand.

Ye Chen began attempting the Heaven-Ascending Step’s Heaven’s Source at a Glance. As he stepped, his body suddenly twisted, and his speed slowed dramatically.

Behind him, the two old-school Emperor Realms immediately caught up, launching a powerful attack on Ye Chen.

A sword array circulated around Ye Chen, blocking the lethal strikes from the two old-school Emperor Realms, but his body was still sent flying away.

"Ye Chen, it seems you’re done for. Prepare to die!"

One of the old-school Emperor Realms laughed wildly, sending a punch that obliterated the sky within a radius of dozens of miles.

The other old-school Emperor Realm shouted, expanding the domain to lock down the void.

"Too lazy to play with you anymore. I’ll let you two old things live a few more days, and next time, I’ll cut you to pieces!"

Ye Chen laughed.

Although there was an issue earlier, he also figured out where the problem was.

Ye Chen took another step.

Everything around him distorted, and in the next moment, his figure disappeared from the original spot.

The two old-school Emperor Realms glanced at each other, and both saw deep shock on each other’s faces.
