Supreme Sword God

Chapter 779 - 778: Scheming Women—Who’s Afraid of Whom!

Amid Ye Chen’s relentless slashing, Yang Gang’s defense was practically futile, his physical body was reduced to fragments, and his spirit was exposed in Ye Chen’s sight.

What shocked Ye Chen was that Yang Gang’s spirit was wrapped in a layer of gray misty power.

This gray misty power was mysterious, eerie, and formidable.

However, fortunately, Yang Gang seemed unable to continuously unleash this power to attack.

Ye Chen kept swinging his sword, attacking with all his might.

Yet, he could never break through that layer of gray misty power.

Even though Yang Gang’s spirit couldn’t threaten Ye Chen, Ye Chen couldn’t destroy his spirit either!

Ye Chen’s gaze flickered.

Since he couldn’t kill him now, he might as well suppress him first!

The next moment, a terrifying suction force erupted from the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower, directly sucking in Yang Gang’s spirit!

As a Half-Sacred Artifact, the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower wasn’t just for smashing people; suppressing enemies and imprisoning them was also one of its primary functions!

To be safe, Ye Chen directly threw the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower into the Sword Tomb!

With Luo Qingyi and Master Legs watching over it, even the spirit of a Reincarnator couldn’t stir up any waves.

After dealing with Yang Gang’s spirit, Ye Chen’s Eternal Golden Body dissipated accordingly.

"Hiss!"

A sharp intake of breath came from Ye Chen’s mouth.

Earlier, with the Eternal Golden Body, the hole in his chest wasn’t much of an issue.

But now, unable to maintain the Eternal Golden Body, the power permeating the wound began to deteriorate immediately, and the gray misty force attached to the wound was aggressively eroding Ye Chen’s body, spreading to every part of his form!

Just then.

A silhouette flashed and appeared.

Shi Fengchun appeared in front of Ye Chen, looking gravely serious: "First, use the ancient tribe’s source to stabilize your life force, come with me!"

Ye Chen knew he couldn’t be careless with this matter and immediately shouted, "Elder He, wipe out these guys, and bring back anything useful. I have some things to deal with!"

Then, Shi Fengchun’s power swept over and immediately took Ye Chen into the depths of the void.

"There’s no time to find a place, let’s do it here!" Shi Fengchun said, then waved his hand, and powerful energy immediately stabilized the chaotic void currents around them. Then, placing one hand on Ye Chen’s body, an incessant flow of power surged into Ye Chen, helping him contain that mysterious gray power that was spreading!

With Shi Fengchun’s help, the power expanding within Ye Chen was forced back to the hole in his chest.

Shi Fengchun took a deep breath and withdrew his power from Ye Chen’s body, saying, "I truly didn’t expect that there would be a Reincarnator within the Holy Fist Sect."

Ye Chen casually removed the blood-colored Asura mask and said, "Brother Chun, what exactly is this power? It even broke through my Eternal Golden Body. Does every Reincarnator possess such power?"

Shi Fengchun said, "I’m not entirely sure. I told you before, I only have a general idea about these matters. By the way, did you kill that Reincarnator?"

Ye Chen said, "Weren’t you watching nearby all the time? You already know, why ask me..."

"I was here earlier, but I left for a while. When I returned, I found you had a hole punched through by a Reincarnator."

Ye Chen made an "oh" sound and said, "Reincarnators are indeed special, but chopping them isn’t any different."

Since Brother Chun didn’t know, then there’s no need to bring it up.

Instinct told Ye Chen that Yang Gang’s spirit held something very important!

Though Brother Chun was always secretive, it wasn’t that he couldn’t be trusted; rather, Ye Chen was sure that if he handed the suppressed spirit to Brother Chun, even if some useful information was extracted, he wouldn’t be told everything.

Therefore, it’s better to do it himself first, and then consider selectively sharing some information with Brother Chun.

Whether dealing with enemies or comrades.

One must hold more cards in one’s hand to have the initiative!

Shi Fengchun stared at the wound on Ye Chen’s chest and said, "Kid, this might really be bad luck for you. This power can’t be dispelled..."

"I’ll try to find another way." Ye Chen said, not too worried. By dealing with that mass of spirit trapped inside the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower, a solution should be found.

If that doesn’t work, then seek help from those in Bloodline Martial Dao.

Ye Chen remembered how Senior Han Xun from the Bloodline Martial Dao once said that within their mysterious space, ancestors from the previous era still survived.

In their eyes, Ye Chen was the one chosen by their Daoist Lord; they wouldn’t stand idly by.

As long as he wasn’t dead, nothing was too big a deal.

"Brother Chun, with such a fierce battle inside the Holy Fist Sect, you still found time to handle other matters?" Ye Chen asked.

Shi Fengchun: "Three Reincarnators came earlier. I originally wanted to capture them, but then the guy guarding the mysterious stone from last time appeared.

In the end, he took the three Reincarnators away, and I returned empty-handed.

I thought it strange before, how three Reincarnators showed up all at once. It seems they came to find the one you killed inside the Holy Fist Sect."

Ye Chen: "Can these Reincarnators find each other? Could they be part of the same faction? If that’s true, if all these Reincarnators concentrate together, who on the Celestial Essence Continent could oppose them?"

Thinking of this, Ye Chen felt a chill run through his body.

Shi Fengchun said, "You really do worry about a lot of things. This concerns the entire Celestial Essence Continent, no need for you to fret unnecessarily, and besides, Reincarnators, Parasites, Defiers aren’t necessarily malevolent by nature.

Just like people, some are good, some are bad."

Ye Chen nodded, saying, "Of course, sometimes, even without malice, one can still become an enemy."

The world is complex; even without ill intent, differences in ideology can easily place you on opposing sides.

Saying this, Shi Fengchun frowned and said, "They’re coming back!"

Ye Chen: "I’ll go along and have a look too!"

Shi Fengchun glanced at the hole in Ye Chen’s chest and said, "Let’s go!"

A moment later.

Shi Fengchun, with Ye Chen, blocked four people in the void.

One of them, Ye Chen had seen before, the one guarding the mysterious stone, who almost killed Brother Chun last time.

The other three looked very young, one woman and two men.

Ye Chen said nothing, standing behind Brother Chun.

Shi Fengchun’s gaze was icy cold, "I let the three of them go once, don’t test my limits again!"

The middle-aged man holding the greatsword said, "Shi Fengchun, I don’t plan to fight you again, but there’s something I need them to take care of here."

Among the three young ones, the woman Lin Jiao stared at Ye Chen, "Where’s the Reincarnator you fought?"

Ye Chen calmly said, "Dead."

The look in Lin Jiao’s eyes turned murderous, "You killed him?"

"Easily." Ye Chen appeared composed.

Brother Chun was stronger than before; the opposing greatsword-wielding middle-aged man clearly feared Brother Chun. With him around, Ye Chen was brimming with confidence!

"Hand over what he left behind after death!" Lin Jiao demanded, "Give it up, and I’ll help you resolve the Reincarnation Force’s wound."

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed. So the power that broke his Eternal Golden Body’s defense was called the Power of Reincarnation. He sneered, "Turned to ash, if you want his things, better wait till the fight in the Holy Fist Sect is over, and search where he once lived."

"Turned to ash?" The Reincarnator Lu Qi muttered under his breath.

From this guy’s expression, Ye Chen quickly guessed a few things.

When a Reincarnator dies, something important might be left behind.

But not always.

So, that woman clearly tried to fish words out of him!

Playing mind games? Bring it on!
