Nine Revolutions Star Technique

The Taotian Palace, both inside and out, was utterly silent.

Even at this moment.

Everyone present intentionally suppressed their breathing. It was as if a fierce dragon had suddenly appeared, obliterated Ning Tianbei, and then surged forward. What terrifying power was this?

Just one palm strike?

And Ning Tianbei was annihilated?

”Thud!”

The originally aggressive members of the True Martial Sect felt their knees go weak, collapsing to the ground, their hearts uncontrollably pounding as if ready to leap from their throats at any moment.

Simply terrifying!

”Now, do you understand?”

Ye Qingchen slowly withdrew his right hand, his gaze sweeping across the crowd.

Meeting his gaze, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Such indifferent eyes, overlooking them like a god observing ants from above, sent shivers down their spines!

Only then did they realize why the influential figures of the Tongxuan Continent submitted to Ye Qingchen. It wasn’t based on confidence! Nor on some background! But on strength!

On the strength to control life and death.

One wonders.

In the face of such power that could destroy a Half-Step Celestial Saint with a mere gesture, who wouldn’t fear, who wouldn’t tremble, who wouldn’t be in awe?

”True Martial Sect!”

When Ye Qingchen’s gaze fell upon the members of the True Martial Sect, they trembled even more. An elderly member said with a quivering voice, ”True Martial Sect admits its mistake. We beg Young Master Ye for mercy! We will retreat now and swear never to step out of the Daqian Country again.”

This elder was the Great Elder of the True Martial Sect.

With the Sect Leader and Vice Sect Leader dead, he held the highest status. At this moment, he represented the submission of the True Martial Sect, leaving the others no choice but to follow.

The others, hearing this, smiled bitterly.

They originally thought.

This time they could flatten the Taotian Palace and use the Celestial Peak Country as a foothold to start dominating the Cyan Continent. But who knew they would run directly into Ye Qingchen.

This setback nearly broke the spine of the True Martial Sect, and for the next hundred years, they would likely never dare step beyond the Daqian Country.

Yet some secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

At least this time, the True Martial Sect was preserved.

However.

This thought had just arisen when they heard Ye Qingchen say with a half-smile:

”Facing death, you still wish to retreat unscathed? Have you forgotten what I said?”

”What?”

A bad feeling surged in the Great Elder’s heart.

Ye Qingchen continued:

”Before this, I gave your True Martial Sect a chance to come and apologize with humility! But instead of agreeing, you led an army to besiege my Taotian Palace?”

”When has my Taotian Palace ever been one to suffer bullying?”

”From today onwards, I no longer want to hear of the True Martial Sect in the Cyan Continent!”

As soon as Ye Qingchen said this.

Everyone present was taken aback.

At this moment.

Yun Xuan suddenly stepped forward, solemnly declaring:

”In the name of the Spirit Coffin Sect leader, I declare war on the True Martial Sect, to the death!”

These words fell.

The others immediately responded.

”I, Vast Sea Sect, declare war on the True Martial Sect, to the death!”

”I, Liu Family of Yun Ding City, declare war on the True Martial Sect, to the death!”

”I, Black Abyss City…”

One by one, the influential figures of the Tongxuan Continent spoke up. With each declaration, the True Martial Sect members turned paler.

If.

Earlier, when Ye Qingchen struck down Ning Tianbei with a single palm, they still harbored a glimmer of hope that the True Martial Sect’s legacy might be preserved. But with so many voices now, their last shred of illusion was completely shattered.

Any of these forces alone could keep the True Martial Sect on edge, let alone declaring war all at once?

At this point.

The True Martial Sect was effectively faced with the entire Tongxuan Continent!

Who could withstand the entire Tongxuan Continent’s onslaught?

”Young Master Ye!”

The Great Elder of the True Martial Sect collapsed to the ground as if his spine had been extracted.

He never imagined.

This young man, though appearing youthful, was so resolute in his killing. Now, the True Martial Sect not only lost its final chance at turning the tables but also faced extinction.

”This…”

Having witnessed Ye Qingchen’s challenge to the True Martial Sect, they tried hard to suppress their breath, even lowering their heads to their chests, hoping Ye Qingchen would overlook and forget them.

But.

How could that be possible?

As shock filled their hearts, they suddenly heard a gentle voice at their ears:

”And you, Eight Major Sects!”

At this instant, the members of the Eight Major Sects turned pale, faces like golden paper, teetering on the edge, with some timid ones instantly kneeling and begging for mercy.

All grand ambitions, all schemes and strategies, were nothing but a big joke in the face of absolute power!

They only thought of surviving, saving themselves!

”I initially thought that by exterminating the Eight Major Sects’ upper echelons, it would serve as a warning and deterrent to you all. Yet you were still foolish enough to involve the True Martial Sect for revenge. What should I do with you?”

As Ye Qingchen moved closer, the Eight Major Sects members couldn’t stop trembling.

”Run!”

Someone suddenly shouted.

Instantly, the members of the Eight Major Sects swiftly turned into streaks of escape light, rushing out of Taotian Peak.

There was no other option.

Ye Qingchen was too powerful!

They had not the slightest chance of winning!

Now, they could only flee, but they also understood that after leaving, they could never return to the Eight Major Sects or Celestial Peak Country again in their lifetime!

”Haha, in front of me, Ye Qingchen, you still think you can escape?”

Ye Qingchen laughed heartily, raising his hand with a wave.

A transparent barrier, like an overturned bowl, covered the Taotian Palace, instantly blocking their path. The members of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect crashed into the barrier, instantly dazed. The members of the Xingluo Sect chopped at it with their hands, but to no avail.

”What on earth is this technique?”

The Eight Major Sects members were utterly dumbfounded.

With just a wave of his hand, Ye Qingchen used the force of the wind to suppress a hundred-zhang radius. What kind of technique was this? It was almost like the work of legendary deities!

”Such immense sealing power, he couldn’t possibly sustain it for long. We just have to wait till the barrier vanishes!”

The Celestial Extreme Sect members shouted loudly.

Ye Qingchen’s gaze flickered.

They were right.

What he was using was precisely the power of ’wind momentum.’ After his battle with Ling Xiaozi, he had been contemplating other uses for ’wind momentum’ beyond transforming into a flying sword to kill.

Now, it was his first attempt.

With Ye Qingchen’s current strength, he could only keep them sealed for nine breaths.

But!

That’s enough!

Ye Qingchen’s eyes turned cold as he raised his hand to strike at one of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect members.

”Celestial Essence Sword Sect, I’ll start with you!”

”Hah!”

That person clearly knew Ye Qingchen’s strength was overwhelming, beyond his defense. Without hesitation, he swiftly brought out a piece of white jade like mutton fat in his hand.

He squeezed a seal.

With a ’boom,’ the jade shattered, countless runes flew out like tadpoles, rapidly forming in mid-air, transforming into a white shield of light.

This piece of jade, obtained from a secret realm, was an Earth Grade Top-tier treasure that had saved him countless times. Now, fully activated, he was confident that even as a Half-Step Celestial Saint, Ye Qingchen couldn’t break through the barrier in less than a few minutes!

However.

In his shocked gaze, Ye Qingchen’s palm penetrated the barrier, gently landing on his chest.

”Thud!”

A dull sound resonated.

The opponent’s chest abruptly caved in, with a corresponding palm print protruding from his back.

”How is this possible?”

His eyes were still filled with disbelief.

As though unable to fathom dying just like that, perishing under Ye Qingchen’s palm.

And at this point.

Not even a full breath had passed!
