Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 738: Chapter 737 [Songshan Town]

The first to charge towards Dongfang Meng, prepared to dishonor her, was one of the remaining six members of the Five Poison Seven Sons. Just as he approached Dongfang Meng, his head flew into the air, startling the remaining five members, who all froze, then turned to look at Ye Tianchen. They saw Ye Tianchen’s right hand formed into a palm, a golden Sword Energy surged forth, chopping a head off.

Splat!

A Blood Mist burst in the air, the member whose head had been severed by Ye Tianchen completely exploded, meeting a gruesome end that left the remaining five members of the Five Poison Seven Sons in shock, involuntarily stepping back a few steps, looking at Ye Tianchen with some disbelief.

”You... Senior Brother Quan, why would you do this?”

”Senior Brother Quan, what’s wrong with you?”

”Did your junior brother do something wrong? Do you have to kill him so dreadfully?”

The members of the Five Poison Seven Sons couldn’t help but speak out, unable to see or feel that the person before them was not Quan Li but Ye Tianchen. This was no surprise, as the Bone Transformation Skill was not just an ordinary Disguise Skill, but it changed a person’s aura from the inside out. Although the remaining six members of the Five Poison Seven Sons were not low in cultivation, having reached the Early-stage Martial Venerate realm, they were still a bit inferior to Ye Tianchen, a Mid Martial Venerate powerhouse. It was likely that even experts with comparable cultivation levels might not be able to identify Ye Tianchen’s true face, unless they were much higher in the Cultivation Realm than Ye Tianchen.

Without hesitation, Ye Tianchen formed his hands into palms, Sword Energy flowing wildly, and quickly charged into the midst of the remaining Five Poison Sect disciples, his blade-hands chopping down swiftly, decapitating four more heads of the Five Poison Seven Sons members. For these ruthless individuals, Ye Tianchen could not afford to hold back, sending out several finger strikes that utterly destroyed those whose heads he had chopped off.

What the members of the Five Poison Seven Sons never expected was that their ”Senior Brother Quan” would turn against them, suddenly attacking them with a lethal force that shattered both spirit and body. In just a brief moment, only one member of the Five Poison Seven Sons was left, shivering all over, swiftly retreating with a body surrounded by black Poisonous Gas, ready to strike at any moment.

”Senior Brother Quan... no, who exactly are you?” the only remaining member of the Five Poison Seven Sons finally reacted, although he could not see through Ye Tianchen’s true face, he began to suspect something.

”I am Quan Li, what is wrong with that?” Ye Tianchen said with a smile as he walked towards the last remaining member of the Five Poison Seven Sons.

”No, you are not Senior Brother Quan. Otherwise, how could you possibly strike at us...” the remaining member of the Five Poison Seven Sons said harshly as he looked at Ye Tianchen.

”The Five Poison Sect has brought this upon itself and does not deserve to live. I, Ye Tianchen, will eventually exterminate it!” Ye Tianchen said calmly.

”You... you are Ye Tianchen?”

”Exactly!”

No sooner had Ye Tianchen finished speaking than he vanished from sight. A golden-fist aura surged out, and despite the last remaining member of the Five Poison Seven Sons being on guard, using all his poison to defend, he could not stop Ye Tianchen, who had reached Small Success in the ”Vajra Divine Fist,” and was turned into a puff of Blood Mist, dissipating in the air.

The skills of each member of the Five Poison Seven Sons were not low, but Ye Tianchen’s natural talent for insight was high. In just a few hours, he had managed to comprehend the ”Vajra Divine Fist” to the stage of Small Success, bringing it to the same level as the ”Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill.” These two Divine Skills, inherently complementary, when combined to the Great Achievement Realm, would surely be formidable.

Ye Tianchen knew that had it not been for his own instinctual potential unleashed under extreme conditions in the mouth of the Poison Scorpion, he could not speak of slaughtering the Five Poison Seven Sons, perhaps not even winning a duel against Quan Li.

Holding Dongfang Meng in his arms, Ye Tianchen quickly checked her internal injuries, discovering that a peculiar talisman had been placed inside Dongfang Meng. Despite his efforts to disrupt it with Martial Arts True Power, he couldn’t undo it. This strange talisman was like a Formation, completely locking up Dongfang Meng’s Martial Arts True Power, rendering her unable to use it. For a Martial Artist, being unable to use Martial Arts True Power was no different than being a regular person.

After Dongfang Meng regained consciousness, Ye Tianchen spent a long time explaining until she believed that he was indeed Ye Tianchen, not Quan Li. Apart from having her Martial Arts True Power locked, she had no other injuries, which greatly relieved Ye Tianchen.

”Where are we heading now?” Dongfang Meng glanced at Ye Tianchen and asked.

”We are heading to the Songshan Sect. The grand meeting of the Ancient Martial World begins in three days. I need to assess Bei Lengshi’s actual situation first; otherwise, it might be very difficult to rescue Brother Tian,” Ye Tianchen thought for a moment and said.

”My body’s Martial Arts True Power is sealed. I can’t help you at all, and I will only be a burden to you,” Dongfang Meng said with some self-reproach.

”Don’t worry, I am sure we can find a master who can lift the sealing charm from your body. Not being able to use Martial Arts True Power is only temporary,” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

Dongfang Meng nodded. Without any delay, the two left swiftly for the Songshan Sect. With only three days left until the grand meeting of the Ancient Martial World began, Tian Boguang had been captured by Bei Lengshi. According to what Bei Lengshi’s trusted subordinates said, on the day the grand meeting began, Bei Lengshi would publicly execute Tian Boguang to deter other sects, win over people’s hearts, and secure his position as the supreme ruler of the Ancient Martial World.

Along the way, Ye Tianchen carried Dongfang Meng as they flew using Qi Manipulation Flight. His Divine Movement Skill was unrivaled; traveling millions of miles overnight was no issue. When Ye Tianchen saw a vast mountain range that seemed endless and spotted a small town, he stopped. By then, Dongfang Meng had unknowingly fallen asleep on his back at some point.

With her body’s Martial Arts True Power sealed by a peculiar talisman, Dongfang Meng was no different from an ordinary person. Traveling such a long distance without Ye Tianchen carrying her would undoubtedly have been impossible. After stopping at the entrance of the small town, Ye Tianchen finally woke Dongfang Meng.

”Where have we arrived?” Dongfang Meng looked around and asked.

”I’m not sure either. I was about to ask you what this place is,” Ye Tianchen responded, looking towards the direction of the small town.

Dongfang Meng paused for a moment, then turned to look at the small town too, frowning as she mumbled to herself, ”Could this be the ’Songshan Town’ Master once mentioned?”

”Songshan Town?” Ye Tianchen asked, equally puzzled.

After looking at Ye Tianchen, Dongfang Meng took a few steps back, looked toward the entrance of the town where a sign was hung, and indeed, the words ”Songshan Town” were inscribed on it. She nodded seriously and said, ”Yes, this is Songshan Town. We’ve reached the foothills of the Songshan Sect. This town still preserves the appearance of Ancient Earth. Each generation of ancestors has left it here, and you can tell from the clothing.”

”It indeed looks very ancient, similar to how ancient people would be, from the architecture of the buildings to the setup of various shops. There are some modern elements, but many more that retain ancient characteristics,” Ye Tianchen also said, somewhat puzzled.

”Let’s go inside. This town is a necessary route to reach the Songshan Sect. Don’t speak carelessly; there are many informants from the Songshan Sect here, as well as many powerful figures from the Ancient Martial World,” Dongfang Meng whispered.

Not using Qi Manipulation Flight anymore, Ye Tianchen and Dongfang Meng walked ordinarily into ’Songshan Town.’ As Dongfang Meng explained, Ye Tianchen learned that the town was still preserved from Ancient Earth when cultivation thrived. It was filled with powerful beings and martial artists with divine skills. Yet, every powerful individual started as an ordinary person. Without ordinary people, no warrior could emerge. Like Emperor Star, Earth also had a mix of martial artists and ordinary mortals, with houses, residents, shops, taverns, and so on. ’Songshan Town’ was a place where ordinary mortals from Ancient Earth resided, living a life governed by the sun’s rise and set, conducting trades and catering to martial artists. Generally, powerful martial artists would not harm ordinary mortals, although some cruel martial artists wouldn’t hesitate to harm even the feeblest human.

”As expected, many powerful experts have come here, not only disciples of the Songshan Sect but also many other sects and powerful loose cultivators,” Dongfang Meng whispered to Ye Tianchen.

”The grand meeting of the Ancient Martial World is about to start. There are many who wish to control the entire Ancient Martial World. They came here early to gather information and are prepared to fight when necessary. They have all planned this in advance,” Ye Tianchen said calmly.

”Although Earth is no longer suitable for cultivation, people in the Ancient Martial World are still full of ambition. To become the ruler of the Ancient Martial World is to control the entire planet. Whether it is divine skills left from ancient times or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, all would belong to him. Even using the Transmission Array to go to Emperor Star is a possibility. That would give hope to all the cultivators of Earth’s Ancient Martial World, driving many to madness,” Dongfang Meng nodded and said.

Ye Tianchen looked around and felt the presence of many experts in ’Songshan Town,’ especially several powerful hidden auras that gave a staggering feeling. If they rashly proceeded to the Songshan Sect now, they would likely be discovered before even reaching the gate, making rescue Yan Boguang as difficult as ascending to heaven. It seemed necessary to think of a strategy first. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets.
