Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 902: Chapter 901: [Just Entered, Got Hurt!]

”Brother, have you thought this through? It’s not just the people here; it’s very likely I’m facing the Blood Killing Organization. This group is not ordinary; you probably know more than I do. We can’t provoke them.” Ye Tianchen deliberately said as he looked at the burly man with the sword on his back.

”Is that so? It seems I haven’t provoked them. I’m just entering Flame Valley with you. As for your matters, I may not be able to help, but if the Blood Killing Organization insists on dragging me into this, then I will just fight alongside you, right?” the burly man laughed and said.

Ye Tianchen didn’t speak. The burly man was straightforward, saying whatever was on his mind. This kind of personality really matched Ye Tianchen’s style. After all, he and the burly man weren’t really familiar with each other, not even friends. Their relationship was lukewarm. Hearing it from the burly man didn’t make Ye Tianchen feel awkward but rather comfortable!

”Alright then, we’ll enter Flame Valley together. I’ll do what I need to do, and I won’t interfere with your matters.” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

”That’s the spirit, let’s go, Brother.” The burly man laughed heartily.

The people present originally thought that the burly man would have a big fight with Ye Tianchen. To their surprise, the burly man walked towards Flame Valley joking and laughing with Ye Tianchen. Many people were disappointed and held a grudge against the burly man, suspecting he had some friendship with Ye Tianchen. They feared there would be obstacles if they wanted to deal a deadly blow to Ye Tianchen.

”This back-sword man seems like a formidable loose cultivator, with fairly high combat power!”

”At least at the middle to late-stage Martial Venerate level. Ye Tianchen actually brought such a strong helper.”

”Hmph, so what? The Blood Killing Organization has a terrifying legacy. Even ten Ye Tianchens or ten such back-sword men wouldn’t withstand them. Furthermore, if these two manage to escape, they will surely be battered. Can’t we wipe them out with so many of us here?”

”That’s right, I’m quite fond of the big sword behind the back-sword man.”

Almost all these martial artists watching the spectacle harbored ill intentions. If not for fearing Ye Tianchen’s combat power and the powerful treasures he had, and the fact that Ye Tianchen arrived with a strong stance and shockingly killed Quan Qingyi, who was of the same cultivation realm, ignoring the allies backing Quan Qingyi, and intimidating everyone present, Ye Tianchen would likely have been surrounded and killed. Despite Ye Tianchen being mentally prepared, unafraid of any risks, and ready to save Dongfang Meng at all costs, even in life-and-death situations or the treacherous Flame Valley, such encirclement would mean exhaustion of combat power and wasting time. Here, he could only proceed with strength, kill a few as a warning to the rest, to deter these ruthless people. This was the sole thing Ye Tianchen had to do, or he would face too many dangers and troubles, delaying his rescue of Dongfang Meng.

Ye Tianchen and the burly man headed towards Flame Valley, leaving behind a group of martial artists who wanted to attack Ye Tianchen and seize his treasures. None followed because even the outer flames of Flame Valley were not something ordinary people could withstand, and no one was willing to risk their life to kill Ye Tianchen. Quan Qingyi’s outcome was a good lesson. Without absolute confidence, no one there dared to act rashly against Ye Tianchen!

When Ye Tianchen reached the outskirts of Flame Valley, he and the burly man quietly activated their internal Martial Arts True Power to resist the intense flames. The aura of these flames made one feel suffocated, as if their whole body was about to burn, reduced to ashes.

”What powerful flames! This Flame Valley must have been burning for hundreds of thousands of years without extinguishing. What kind of fire is this?” The burly man couldn’t help but exclaim to himself in surprise.

”Have you never been here before, old brother?” Ye Tianchen asked, startled.

”To be honest with you, my brother, this is my first time here. I’ve only heard about this place before. Your matter is spread across the three Ancient Martial Worlds this time, so I thought I’d come take a look at the excitement.” The burly man said with a smile.

Ye Tianchen felt a bit frustrated and speechless. He originally thought the burly man had either been to Flame Valley before or knew a lot about it, which is why he dared to come here. Otherwise, given the notorious reputation of Flame Valley, who would dare to wander in? Probably only someone with the burly man’s cheerful yet steady mindset would dare casually venture into Flame Valley.

”Brother Ye, honestly, I’m a loose cultivator. How should I put this—my whole life has been about constant adventure and exploration to improve my cultivation and combat power. Sometimes you need to take risks. Otherwise, you’ll always be stuck.” The burly man spoke.

”Hmm, I understand!” Ye Tianchen nodded.

”Let’s go. The organization that kidnapped your woman this time is very powerful, so be cautious. I might not be able to help much!” the big man with the sword said earnestly.

”I hope we can still come out together, just like last time at the Purple Bamboo Great Saint’s tomb,” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

Swish! Swish! Two figures rushed towards the edge of Flame Valley; they were Ye Tianchen and the big man with the sword. When they reached the outskirts of Flame Valley, they relied on their strong martial arts true power to envelop their bodies, stepping inside one by one. Upon reaching the first layer, Ye Tianchen and the big man exchanged glances, both exuding a red glow, sweating profusely with the feeling of turning into firemen. They furrowed their brows, coldly looking ahead, not daring to move forward easily. The sensation of the flames burning was indeed daunting; just stepping forward randomly might instantly cause one to be burned to ashes.

”Such powerful flames, I’m almost at my limit. If I go any further inside, I fear I’ll be directly incinerated,” the big man with the sword exclaimed in surprise.

”The flames here are just slightly inferior to the Red Lotus Karma Fire. Could it also be Demon Fire left from the battles in Ancient Times?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but murmur to himself.

”Red Lotus Karma Fire? Demon Fire? Do you mean the flames here were left from the battles between gods and demons? That would have been thousands of years ago, even millions. How could such flames exist on Earth? How many secrets are buried in the Earth’s past?” the big man echoed Ye Tianchen’s astonishment.

”I don’t know. Perhaps to understand why Flame Valley has been burning for millions of years, one has to reach its center and see what’s actually burning,” Ye Tianchen said, furrowing his brow and looking ahead.

”Let’s forget it; Flame Valley has burned for millions of years. The only person who ever reached the second layer was Master Fang Zheng, and only he had the perseverance and cultivation to truly reach the valley’s center. Only a Supreme Emperor could do that. It’s not worth the risk. I’ll wander around the first layer and see if there’s anything to gain. By the way, how will you find your woman? Are the people who kidnapped her here?” The big man looked around, seemingly seeing no one, and asked.

Ye Tianchen smiled faintly and then replied, ”Brother, you go ahead and leave. I have my methods. Take care, and I hope we meet again.”

”Alright, take care, little brother.”

The big man with the sword left. He didn’t have a deep connection with Ye Tianchen, certainly not enough to offend the Blood Killing Organization. The Blood Killing Organization has a long and ruthless history, truly not an entity an ordinary person can provoke. Without life-and-death ties or shared hardships, nobody would dare to take such a risk. It all depended on Ye Tianchen himself.

After the big man left, Ye Tianchen immediately released his powerful Divine Thought, searching throughout the first layer of Flame Valley for Dongfang Meng, but to no avail. At present, Ye Tianchen was only using his martial arts true power, not his mighty ”Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill.” Based on his estimates, if he used the ”Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill” combined with his own formidable physique, he could lean towards entering the second layer of Flame Valley. That would be his limit. Reaching the valley’s center was impossible, and forcing his way through would be suicidal.

Boom!

Ye Tianchen secretly propelled his martial arts true power. Since this group had kidnapped Dongfang Meng, they wouldn’t let him find them easily. The longer he lingered in Flame Valley, the more dangerous it became for him. Hence, he used a domineering and direct approach, releasing a burst of martial arts true power from his mouth, shouting loudly, ”I, Ye Tianchen, am here. Stop hiding and come out!”

Thud!

No sooner had Ye Tianchen finished speaking than a powerful force swept towards him. It was a giant palm attacking from his left. Without retreating or dodging, Ye Tianchen coldly glanced at it and retaliated with the ”Vajra Divine Fist.”

Puff!

Feeling his entire body tremble, Ye Tianchen spat out a mouthful of blood. The person attacking him was incredibly powerful, at least at the peak cultivation of Late Martial Venerate. Coupled with the need to protect his body from being incinerated in Flame Valley, Ye Tianchen couldn’t easily exert his full strength. The exact strength of the adversary and whether Dongfang Meng was there remained unknown. Recklessly using full force would certainly lead him to utter ruin...
