Chapter 4074: Chapter 4074: A Toasted Promise (Part 1)
A dazzling light burst forth, causing everyone in the plaza to involuntarily close their eyes!
A moment later, the purple light receded, and the crowd reopened their eyes, only to see that Su Zi now appeared utterly exhausted, drenched in sweat all over. Even sitting on that mat seemed extremely arduous, yet there remained an immensely proud expression on his face!
Why?
Because he knew that in this showdown, the winner was him, Su Zi!
Before him, a young man had already collapsed on the ground, blood pouring out from his seven orifices, staining the ground red.
At this moment, Ye Chen lay there like a corpse, motionless!
If anyone could see his eyes, they would surely notice that Ye Chen’s eyes no longer held any trace of vitality...
Old Wu’s expression changed, his figure slightly moving as if about to rush to Ye Chen’s side to give him that pill to restore his divine soul, but he halted, gazing at Ye Chen for a moment, letting out a light sigh. From this young man who should have had an infinitely promising future, he no longer felt any divine soul fluctuation...
This meant that Ye Chen’s divine soul was completely annihilated!
Even such a genius couldn’t withstand this Soul Extermination Seal blow with Holy Ancestor Realm cultivation level...
Xi Rong’er stared blankly at Ye Chen lying on the ground, seemingly unwilling to accept the scene before her, and then, uncontrollable tears flowed from her eyes...
She didn’t understand why she felt this way; death was nothing unfamiliar to martial artists, yet when she saw Ye Chen fallen before her, why did her heart ache so much?
Xi Yun’s face was ashen, his fists clenched tightly, even entertaining thoughts of fighting Su Zi to the death!
Su Zi struggled to support his body, about to stand from the ground; however, this Soul Dao demon found even standing extremely taxing. The Soul Extermination Seal was a top-tier Soul Dao divine power, even though Su Zi naturally possessed this Soul Extermination Seal, how could it be so easily used?
Especially in a suppressed state...
Now, he suffered extremely severe backlash, even his divine soul taking significant damage.
Just as Su Zi was about to stand, suddenly a strange sound echoed across the plaza.
The moment this sound appeared, the entire plaza fell silent!
Everyone turned to look at the source of the sound!
Su Zi’s purple eyes suddenly trembled, his neck stiffly turning, gaze locking onto that "corpse" on the ground!
Ye Chen’s corpse!
What was that sound just now?
Everyone’s heart involuntarily pounded wildly!
At this moment!
A wisp of divine soul fluctuation rippled forth from Ye Chen’s body!
That "corpse" slowly supported his body, crawling up from the ground.
Wiping the blood from his face, Ye Chen showed Su Zi a breathtaking smile and said, "Although you didn’t kill me, that strike certainly didn’t disappoint me. But, having endured so many of your attacks, it’s now my turn, isn’t it?"
Everyone seemed petrified...
Ye Chen wasn’t dead?
Took that Soul Extermination Seal and survived!!!
Su Zi’s face changed, pupils trembling as he exclaimed at Ye Chen, "Impossible! You can’t withstand my Soul Extermination Seal!"
Ye Chen coldly chuckled; it was indeed extremely perilous just now!
At this moment, his mind was already full of cracks, on the brink of collapse; repairing it will likely take some time.
However, precisely because the Divine Peak managed to shield him for a moment under the Soul Extermination Seal, he had the chance to condense the Soul-devouring Seal!
In a critical instant, it fended off the Soul Extermination Seal attack!
Still, despite this, the lingering energy in the Soul Extermination Seal still dealt significant damage to his divine soul. If not for his divine soul becoming purer under the refining of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, even if he didn’t die, he’d be gravely injured and unconscious.
Even with his divine soul’s resilience, it nearly dispersed under that strike; it took much effort to stabilize his soul, which is why no divine soul fluctuation emerged earlier.
However, Ye Chen didn’t know that at this moment, Xuan Han Yu was utterly shocked...
Ordinary people absolutely couldn’t re-condense their divine soul at the brink of soul collapse!
Not even the Samsara Master from the past era!
She increasingly understood why the Samsara Master of the past chose to walk this path.
Perhaps, Ye Chen is the hope of Samsara! The hope of this universe!
At this moment, the extremely condensed Soul-devouring Dao Rhythm poured forth from Ye Chen’s brow, continuously intertwining before him, instantaneously forming half a gray-black rune!
Upon seeing this rune, Su Zi’s pupils contracted sharply, exclaiming, "Soul-devouring Seal?"
His eyes faintly gleamed with purple light, seemingly about to gather soul power to resist, yet his mind was instantly dizzy; the Soul Extermination Seal’s consumption was truly immense!
In the next moment, that Soul-devouring Seal flashed, appearing atop Su Zi’s head!
Ye Chen shouted, "Soul-devouring Sky!"
Gray-black light emitted from Dao Seal, fiercely suppressing Su Zi’s mind!
Despite inheriting the bloodline of the Ancient Soul Demon Clan, this Soul Dao demon couldn’t help but let out a cry of pain as blood gushed from his seven orifices, his body stiffening, heavily collapsing onto the ground!
Before losing consciousness, a bitter smile formed at the corner of Su Zi’s mouth...
This was his first time being injured by a Soul Dao divine power...
Old Wu’s figure moved, catching Su Zi’s body, helplessly shaking his head as he administered the pill into Su Zi’s mouth; he hadn’t expected that the last pill would be used on Su Zi!
Ye Chen exhaled lightly, a hint of appreciation in his eyes as he looked at Su Zi.
Though defeated, Su Zi hadn’t released the suppression on his divine soul and cultivation until the very end!
This proud young man, in Ye Chen’s eyes, was a worthy opponent of respect!
After taking the pill, Su Zi opened his eyes after a moment, looking despondent as he said to Ye Chen, "I lost."
In the next moment, he released the restriction on his cultivation; his soul power rapidly increased, forcibly suppressing the injury on his divine soul, ready to turn and leave.
At this moment, Ye Chen spoke up, "Where are you going?"
Su Zi replied, "I’ve already lost; what point is there in staying here? Unless you intend to humiliate me?"
Ye Chen laughed, "You forgot that you said earlier, if I don’t die, you could be friends with me? Therefore, you should stay, wait until the Hua Yue Competition ends, and enjoy a drink with me."
Su Zi was momentarily stunned, exchanging a gaze with Ye Chen, suddenly smiling, "Alright, but you better not be too pleased too soon; those other five are not easier to deal with than me."
At this moment, Old Wu turned to the still-dazed Chu Wuying, "Hall Master Chu, can we announce the result of this Divine Trial now?"
