Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 449: Five Moons Dragon Trap Array

Despite Ying Tianshengʼs 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 hadnʼt lied—sheʼd 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 Tianshengʼs, 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. Itʼd look like he won by trickery, not that she was inferior. Ying Tiansheng might even gift her more treasures to suppress him later, which sheʼd then deliver to him. A win-win-win.

Ye Chen didnʼt care about fame or invincible posturing. Losing to the fiancée wasnʼt a loss—heʼd 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 worldʼs fastest, but Iʼm prepared to suppress you. Even with it, youʼre doomed to fall! My fiancé doesnʼt need to act. This half-tablet alone can crush you! Ten thousand of you couldnʼt 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 Chenʼs Kun Peng Treasure Technique had reached a transcendent level, ignoring arrays, he couldnʼt maneuver as freely. This could decide the battle. They expected him to dodge.

But Ye Chenʼs 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 couldnʼt 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 prodigyʼs fall, were thrilled to see her trap Ye Chen, expecting a harsh lesson. Their only regret was the arrayʼs opacity, blocking the spiritual sense.

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

Ying Tianshengʼs eyes widened. Though his fiancée had ensnared the enemy, he wished he could help Ye Chen escape. He didnʼt want her alone with Ye Chen, even to suppress him. But a purple qi-formed divine mountain crashed down, accompanied by Hua Yunfeiʼs amused voice: ”Brother Ying seems reluctant to fight, but I canʼt stop!”

Ying Tianshengʼs gaze turned cold. He shattered the mountain with a punch, as if breaking a galaxy, and charged at Hua Yunfei. Heʼd 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, spectatorsʼ eyes widened in horror. Ying Tiansheng had seemingly teleported from a kilometer away to Hua Yunfeiʼs face, fist raised. The technique was terrifying, impossible to counter. Worse, Hua Yunfeiʼs 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 eraʼs unrivaled first. But his brow furrowed.

Hua Yunfei couldnʼt 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 Tianshengʼs terrifying power.

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

But Ying Tianshengʼs face darkened. Hua Yunfeiʼs final reaction and lack of residual essence felt wrong.

As expected, movement stirred on Heavenly Intention Holy Landʼs 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.
