Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 578: Chapter 577 【This is the Rhythm of Blood and Storm】

Two Thunder Arrows along with a missile had annihilated three military fighter jets from M country. The final move, ”Heavenly Shocking Palm,” was an absolute skill of the Qingcheng Yue Yaochi Sect, very powerful indeed. Ever since Ye Tianchen had witnessed Qing Chengyue and Dongfang Meng’s great battle, he had grasped a bit of the essence of the ”Heavenly Shocking Palm” and had been pondering it ever since. Ye Tianchen increasingly felt that Earth, which was once very suitable for cultivation, must have produced countless superb strongmen. Although Earth was no longer suitable for cultivation, it surely had left behind many absolute skills and divine arts. If he could acquire these skills and arts, it would be a significant advancement in strength.

The saying ”one can never have too many skills” speaks to this truth. However, Ye Tianchen did not intend to merely imitate these people’s absolute skills. He had long been determined in his heart to pursue his path of cultivation, one that would differ from his predecessors. Through the ages, numerous cultivators sought power, countless strongmen pursued eternal life, but not one had truly succeeded. Why is that? Were the sages not intelligent enough? Impossible. Were they not powerful enough? Impossible. The only possibility was that many had tread similar paths in their cultivation, none carving out their unique path. Therefore, Ye Tianchen believed he needed to forge a different path of cultivation. The ancient skills and divine arts of the predecessors would become his learning targets, objects of his reference.

Every absolute skill and divine art has its unique aspects and impressive power, encompassing massive forces and insights about the universe, even the whole world. Ye Tianchen sought these powers and insights, aspiring to integrate and innovate all of them into his unique path of cultivation — a unification of all techniques with myriad experiences in mind. This was what Ye Tianchen aimed for.

Leaving a huge palm print on the ground, Ye Tianchen’s palm strike was not mild. He had not activated the superpower within his body but had used the Inner Strength of Ancient Martial arts from his Dantian. He also wanted to see what kind of change or fluctuation one force would undergo when using the other, knowing that one day he would have to merge these two different forces. If he could not achieve this, his death was certain. So what would the scenario look like after merging the Ancient Martial Sect’s Inner Strength and superpower? What would Ye Tianchen gain or possibly lose? With his current level of cultivation realm, it was still impossible, so he could only hope.

”Big brother, that was so satisfying! These M country bandits thought we were easy to bully; it’s time to teach them a quiet lesson!” Wang Jie said discontentedly.

”That palm strike just now was really incredible; even the indestructible armored tanks of M country were blown up!” Hu Long also expressed his astonishment.

”Big brother, it looks like we must leave here quickly. The bandits of M country already know we have arrived in New York, and it seems this situation is difficult to handle!” Bao Tianglong spoke out.

”Yes, Hei Mian and another Heavenly Gang War General, hide the helicopter well; this will be our only ticket back to China. The rest of you follow me, and Hei Mian, remember, rendezvous back at the Ling family estate,” Ye Tianchen nodded and commanded.

Even though Ye Tianchen had destroyed three of M country’s fighter jets and two armored tanks, the situation was very dire. The government of M country was aware they had arrived in New York, and without hesitation, deployed forces to attack, which meant they intended to directly eliminate Ye Tianchen and the others. This might have been unexpected by the M country government; Ye Tianchen, labeled as the ”Eastern Demon” by the M country government, had once again arrived in New York. Otherwise, Hei Bama would surely have been furious and deployed a massive force to kill them.

Hei Mian and another member of the Heavenly Gang War Generals took off in the helicopter, Ye Tianchen knew this mission was exceptionally challenging, greater than before. Last time, they had caught the M country government off guard, but this time they were fully prepared, and this situation was not comparable to before. A bitter, bloody, life-or-death battle was about to begin.

”Let’s go, let’s leave this place first,” Ye Tianchen looked around and said.

Ye Tianchen, along with Wang Jie, Lin Duan, Hu Long, Bao Tianglong, and the brothers Zhang Tian and Zhang Di, as well as Li San, the Monument Pushing Hand master, a group of eight, left the outskirts of New York City, heading towards the center of the city. Along the way, they encountered no further attacks, which struck Ye Tianchen as odd. Given that the M country government knew their group had reached New York with a very clear purpose - to rescue Ling Shuanghe and Ling Yuxun - it seemed implausible that there were no preparations for an ambush; how could it be so smooth?

”Big brother, something’s not right; how come there’s nothing happening all this way?” Lin Duan frowned and asked.

”Indeed, by logic, we should have faced some attacks. But so far, the houses, cars, and people all seem as if nothing has happened; it’s strange,” Bao Tianglong also expressed his suspicion.

”Can you two not make such a fuss, please? Just those few moves from Big Brother earlier were enough to deter all the Americans; who would dare to come forward and seek death?” Wang Jie said disdainfully.

Ye Tianchen did not speak but made a gesture to stop walking. He then walked forward alone for a few steps, aware that as the eight of them moved forward, they had encountered no other attacks, including the nightlife of New York City—the constant flow of people and cars all seemed incredibly normal, showing no signs of abnormality. This was completely asymmetrical to the initial massive assault by the US government, wasn’t it? What was truly going on?

Thinking this, Ye Tianchen walked a few steps forward alone, activating the superpower within him, which instantaneously spread his Superpower Perception over a distance of more than ten miles. Under these circumstances, he could only rely on his Superpower Perception to see if there were any anomalies around them, any ambushes possibly lay in wait.

About five minutes later, Ye Tianchen turned around and said to Lin Duan and the other seven people, ”Let’s go, there’s nothing to worry about, just stay alert!”

Thus, Ye Tianchen, leading seven members of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings, walked toward the city center of New York. He did not hurry or use any other means of transportation, just walked forward on foot. Ye Tianchen understood that the US government knew they had arrived in New York, and if there was to be an ambush, rushing wouldn’t help; they would have to stop and fight. It was better to just walk, allowing them to enjoy the New York night scenery. Probably, in such a situation, Ye Tianchen was the only one who could appreciate the view.

At this time, Ye Tianchen was unaware that just as they had passed a skyscraper, a man was floating in mid-air above the building. This man wore a black leather jacket and a black mask on his face, revealing only his eyes; the right eye was equipped with something resembling a miniaturized magnifying glass with a blinking red light, displaying data. This floating man had been continuously tracking Ye Tianchen and the others. Despite Ye Tianchen releasing a powerful wave of Superpower Perception, which made everything in a ten-mile radius visible whether on the ground or in the air, he still failed to notice this man hovering high above, who had his eyes fixed on them.

”Ye Tianchen, Eastern Demon, despite being very powerful, you will have to die here!” said the floating man in a chilling tone of English.

After speaking, the man lightly touched the device over his right eye, sending the data he had on Ye Tianchen and his group to a military base in New York, USA.

At that moment, in a highly secure research lab within a military base in New York, sat a bald old man with blood-red eyes. Despite appearing elderly, he had very potent, explosive muscles. Just now, he received a set of data sent by a scout from their military base.

”Eastern Demon? Ye Tianchen? Hmph, you dare come to rescue the people of the Ling family? You’re not considering who is in charge here. Including you, none of those you brought will make it back alive!” the bald old man snorted coldly in English.

”General Wett, we should still be cautious about this matter. That Chinese man, Ye Tianchen, just recently dominated Washington, nearly breaking into the White House. If it hadn’t been for Thomas... The president is very angry about this,” said another elderly man sitting beside him.

”Dominated all of Washington? That’s the incompetence of the Washington military bases. It’s because I, Wett, was not there. This time he’s fallen into my hands, and he’s undoubtedly doomed,” Wett said disdainfully.

”But... but I heard that General Balock has already sent three military fighter jets and two armored tanks to kill him, and they have all failed...” another elderly man said, also somewhat astonished.

”Hmph, the President is completely redundant. It would be enough if we from Military Base No. 11 handled this. Why let Balock’s Military Base No. 12 and Libi’s Military Base No. 13 interfere? Both Military Base No. 12 and Military Base No. 13 have incompetents. Balock got what he deserved. I’ve already had people closely monitor those Chinese ants; once they make a move, we’ll definitely be able to kill them!” Wett said with absolute confidence. (To be continued.
