Chapter 921: Chapter 920: Midas Touch, Shocking!
“Senior? You think you deserve that title?!” Ye Chen said bluntly.
The young man shouted, “Ye Chen, you’re just a newcomer, yet you have no one in your eyes. If I don’t teach you today what rules are, I’ll write my name Liu Yang backwards!”
“Whether your name is written backwards or not has nothing to do with me.”
Liu Yang clenched his fists in fury, gritting his teeth as he roared, “You useless trash who only knows how to win with your tongue…”
Before Liu Yang could finish, Ye Chen cut him off and said, “That’s still better than a moron like you who doesn’t even know how to speak properly.”
Trading insults?
When has he ever lost?!
Liu Yang’s martial uncle Hu Fei’s face turned ashen as he said, “Someone this ignorant of the rules really does need a good lesson.”
“How to teach him is not up to you.” Lu Li immediately spoke up, standing up for Ye Chen.
Liu Yang looked at Lu Li and said, “Lu Guardian, the fact that you value him so much proves you think highly of him. His strength must be pretty good, right? What, you don’t even dare let him fight me?
This is completely unlike your usual style, Lu Guardian. You’re famous as a battle maniac. What now, just because of a Ye Chen, even you’ve turned into some cowardly woman?”
Lu Li’s gaze turned icy as he said, “You and Hu Fei really are the same—both overdue for a beating.”
Seeing Lu Li about to make a move, Ye Chen quickly spoke up, “Lu Guardian, this kind of trash, I can handle myself.”
Lu Li, at his core, really was a hotheaded person.
Liu Yang was obviously trying to provoke him.
And Hu Fei’s expression clearly showed he was just itching for Lu Li to make a move.
Ye Chen guessed that if Lu Li, as a Guardian of the Body Alliance, took action against Liu Yang here, it might cause quite a bit of trouble.
Since that was the case, he might as well handle it himself.
“You making a move is fine, I just worry you won’t last three moves in my hands.” Liu Yang sneered.
“I’ll get some practice.” Ye Chen stepped forward.
“I’ll teach you how to behave!” Liu Yang bellowed. His right arm stretched out, and a huge hammer appeared in his palm.
“I heard you have a Saint Weapon. What a coincidence, so do I.” Liu Yang’s tone carried obvious pride.
The conflict here drew a lot of attention.
Many gazes turned over.
“The newcomers these days are quite gutsy.”
“Just ignorant. If he’d heard of Liu Yang’s deeds, he’d never dare act like this.”
“That’s true. Liu Yang’s Flesh Dao has already reached the peak of the Ninth Stage. His Liu Family’s old ancestor was so delighted he gave him a Saint Weapon, the Flaming Hammer. Add Liu Yang’s Celestial Tier intermediate martial art, Breaking Wilderness Eighteen Hammers, and it’s said he once fought a Saint Realm First Layer expert to a draw!”
“You’re missing one thing—Liu Yang has a top-tier Divine Technique, the Golden Finger. That Divine Technique is freakishly domineering!”
“That kid called Ye Chen, what’s his background?”
“All I know is that Lu Li just recruited him from the Outer Sea. As for the rest, I’m not sure.”
The surroundings buzzed with discussion.
Within the new generation of the Body Alliance, Liu Yang’s name was not small.
Whereas Ye Chen… was just an unknown newcomer.
Now that Ye Chen was about to fight Liu Yang, it went without saying that practically no one was optimistic about Ye Chen.
In the field, the one who knew Ye Chen best was Lu Li.
But even Lu Li only knew that Ye Chen’s Flesh Dao had reached the Ninth Stage and that he possessed a top-tier Divine Technique, the Heaven and Earth Holy Body.
Hu Fei knew that as well, and even so he’d brought his martial nephew Liu Yang over, clearly convinced that Liu Yang could crush Ye Chen.
Liu Yang’s expression grew more and more smug.
“I’ll only use three moves. If after three moves you can still stand in front of me, I’ll let this go.”
Ye Chen let out a cold laugh and said, “You talk too damn much.”
Liu Yang’s face darkened as he barked, “Then watch my move!”
As he spoke, he suddenly stomped forward.
With a boom, the ground shook violently. Liu Yang’s body had already shot to Ye Chen’s front, and the Saint Weapon hammer in his hand came crashing down.
With a thought, Ye Chen sent a Saint Sword and thirty-six supreme-quality Dao Swords shooting out from his Storage Ring. The power of the Sword Array turned into a long river of Starry Sky, intercepting Liu Yang’s attack.
“Clang, clang, clang, clang…”
The thirty-six supreme-quality Dao Swords shot in succession onto Liu Yang’s hammer, producing extremely crisp, ringing sounds.
The force of that hammer strike was more than half shaved away by Ye Chen’s thirty-six supreme-quality Dao Swords. Then the Saint Sword burst forth with a sharp, tyrannical edge; with another loud clang, the hammer and Liu Yang’s arm were flung back by the violent backlash, his body losing balance as his feet stumbled back uncontrollably.
One move.
The superior and inferior were already decided.
Stabilizing his figure, Liu Yang’s face was ashen and his expression gloomy as he growled, “Just now I was only testing your weight with pure strength. Next, I’m getting serious!”
“Do as you please.”
Ye Chen’s reply was extremely calm.
“Seems you really won’t cry till you see your own coffin. Watch my Celestial Tier intermediate martial art, Breaking Wilderness Eighteen Hammers!” Liu Yang roared. The Saint Weapon hammer in his hand swept out, a desolate aura spreading as his hammer momentum surged, vast and majestic, heavy and fiercely domineering.
Ye Chen controlled the Infinite Star Sword Array to once again evolve into an offensive.
“Boom!”
This time, the thirty-seven swords of the Infinite Star Sword Array could no longer withstand Liu Yang’s offensive and were blasted away by the violent power, scattering.
The hammer was about to smash down on Ye Chen.
“Swoosh!”
Ye Chen drew his sword from its sheath.
The light of the Saint Sword poured out from the scabbard, illuminating heaven and earth in brilliant splendor. Dragons and phoenixes manifested within the sword light, their might Unrivaled.
“Boom!”
The two forces slammed into each other.
This time, Liu Yang could no longer hold onto that Saint Weapon hammer. The hammer flew from his hand, and his body was like a kite with its string cut, thrown backward through the air.
Ye Chen’s dragon-phoenix Sword Qi, its power still undiminished, continued to surge toward Liu Yang.
In midair, Liu Yang had no time to stabilize himself. Gritting his teeth, he shouted, “Golden Finger!”
He pointed a finger.
His finger turned into pure gold.
A golden beam shot forth, and then a bizarre scene unfolded—Ye Chen’s dragon-phoenix Sword Qi, upon being touched by the power of Liu Yang’s Golden Finger, directly turned into golden sculptures that dropped from the sky.
The golden sculptures smashed into the ground and burst like bubbles, vanishing!
All around, an uproar erupted!
“This Ye Chen… is so strong…”
“Sword Dao… He’s not on the Flesh Dao path. His power’s aura seems to be only at the Heaven-Reaching Realm. Could he have Nine Grotto Heavens? But even with Nine Grotto Heavens, he shouldn’t be this strong…”
“Looks like on this recruitment trip, Lu Li snatched an absolute peerless genius from the Martial Alliance’s hands…”
In the field.
Liu Yang’s hair was in disarray; he looked quite embarrassed.
Just now he’d been talking about three moves…
And the result?
He’d already taken two moves in a row, and he’d lost out both times!
This was a massive loss of face!
“Hmph, as a member of the Body Alliance, yet you walk the path of Elemental Martial Dao—Ye Chen, you’ve utterly disgraced the Body Alliance!” Liu Yang shouted loudly.
“As far as I know, there are quite a few people in the Body Alliance who cultivate Elemental Martial Dao. What, are you saying all of them disgrace the Body Alliance?” Ye Chen said.
At those words, Liu Yang’s face changed over and over.
That kind of big hat was something he absolutely could not wear…
There were super big shots in the Body Alliance who cultivated Elemental Martial Dao.
Even Liu Yang’s martial uncle Hu Fei panicked at this point and hurriedly shouted, “Ye Chen, stop spouting nonsense here… Liu Yang never meant it that way.”
Liu Yang said, “Ye Chen, if you’ve got guts, fight me using only Flesh Dao power!”
“No matter which Dao you use, you’re not my match,” Ye Chen said.
Then, a powerful surge of Qi Blood erupted like a volcano, the might blazing. A dense radiance of blood-colored mist spread out from his body.
“This is the Qi Blood power of the Ninth Stage of the Flesh Dao!”
Such dense Qi Blood radiance, too shocking—if his flesh body attains sainthood… he’ll definitely be able to contend against the strongest batch of prodigies in the Inner Sea!”
“His Elemental Martial Dao achievements aren’t low, and his Flesh Dao is even more astounding. He’s laid down a foundation that could be called the most robust. A genius—this is an absolute supreme genius!”
