Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1488: Chapter 1487: About to Succeed?

The Origin Strange Energy within Ye Tianchen’s body is incredibly powerful and full of resentment, believing Ye Tianchen to be ungrateful and treacherous. It resists fiercely, even seeking mutual destruction to prevent Ye Tianchen from achieving his aims, determined to crush his Divine Thought Light Sphere.

Facing the attack of this Origin Strange Energy, Ye Tianchen’s physical body had already shattered, leaving only the light sphere formed by his Divine Thought. Despite being able to wield the Spiritual Energy within the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” combatting the Origin Strange Energy proves nearly impossible, creating a dire situation of being attacked passively and surviving narrowly.

However, with the Divine Skills of Battle King Qin Kongdao, the Origin Strange Energy split into several parts, aiming to shred Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought with powerful Gang Winds and destroy him completely. Qin Kongdao had anticipated this and had hidden strong Divine Runes within the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” trapping these Gang Winds energies, providing Ye Tianchen the opportunity to vanquish the Origin Strange Energy completely and remove the greatest threat on his cultivation path.

Unexpectedly, even Qin Kongdao didn’t foresee that Ye Tianchen would abandon such a rare opportunity and chose not to defeat the Origin Strange Energy one by one, but instead chose an almost impossible path—trying to integrate the Origin Strange Energy into his body for his lifelong use.

Attempt after attempt, failure followed failure. Each failure brought the painful explosion of Ye Tianchen’s physical body before it could fully reform, a torment far worse than death. Yet Ye Tianchen never gave up, standing up after every explosion, reassembling his body with the ”Undying Golden Body Skill,” endeavoring to integrate the Origin Strange Energy during the process.

Bang!

Failed again, Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought was blown apart into fragments, taking over half an hour to gather back. If he had been outside, even the slightest breeze might have scattered his Divine Thought, ending him completely. Fortunately, within the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” there was no disturbance, and with Battle King Qin Kongdao present, there was no one daring enough to act rashly, granting Ye Tianchen time to regroup his Divine Thought.

”You won’t succeed, stop dreaming, wanting to integrate is impossible. Ultimately, you’ll have to abandon and destroy me!”

”I said, I won’t give up, I’m a very stubborn person!” Ye Tianchen exclaimed through gritted teeth.

”In your current Divine Thought state, continuing like this is practically suicide!”

”Even if it’s suicide, I’ll still merge you into my body. I absolutely won’t abandon or give up!” Ye Tianchen declared earnestly.

Outside the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” martial artists watched this unfold, uncertain of Ye Tianchen’s intentions but hoping he would fail and vanish within, as Ye Tianchen might become a dire threat to them. His destruction would be a relief!

”Did you see? This kid is trying to merge that different energy into his body but has failed countless times already!”

”Rebuilding his body, attempting integration but failing each time, consuming his Divine Thought energy completely at this rate!”

”Best if Ye Tianchen dies, preventing Qin Kongdao from gaining an ally, or him becoming the next Battle King; a tragedy for us all!”

Some could not resist whispering, indeed acknowledging that if Ye Tianchen succeeded in erasing this cultivation hazard, he could soar to unimaginable heights. Observing Ye Tianchen’s past achievements, they were extraordinary; should he successfully internalize this energy, who knows what powers he might gain!

However, among these martial artists, the young generation with inheritance backgrounds, accompanied by elders or even Supreme Elder level figures, came to protect their legacy’s future. Those discerning saw Ye Tianchen’s attempt to merge the energies is nearly futile; by forcing integration, he defies natural order, leading to repeated body explosions, a fate worse than death, with his Divine Thought inevitably damaged in the process — eventually it might be obliterated completely, spelling total destruction without doubt!

”Will you really try anymore? If you continue, I won’t need to destroy your Divine Thought, you’ll destroy yourself!”

”I won’t give up. If I can’t retain you within my body, I’d rather die like this!” Ye Tianchen replied with a bitter smile.

Qin Kongdao glanced at Ye Tianchen, speaking no more, understanding that at his realm, Ye Tianchen must tread his own path; even assistance would be futile if he cannot walk it himself.

Buzz!

Ye Tianchen acted once more, gathering strength, deploying the ”Undying Golden Body Skill,” unwavering in his resolve to merge the Origin Strange Energy within his body, refusing to abandon it to resolve the issue.

As his body reassembled, Ye Tianchen noticed his Dantian gradually repairing, bracing for potential failure yet again. Suddenly, he felt a force approaching slowly, colliding with his Martial Arts True Power, this clash unlike previous countless attempts, was not a battle for dominance, but a gradual fusion. Ye Tianchen was amazed; this Origin Strange Energy seemed touched, not resisting or rejecting as before, striving for integration—while no tangible progress emerged yet, Ye Tianchen felt hope.

”I’m pleased you decided to fight alongside me!” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

”Once we fought side by side, living and dying together; since you persist with such determination, why shouldn’t I try as well, not for you, but for myself!”

Ye Tianchen’s relentless effort and persistence touched the Origin Strange Energy, prompting it to attempt the merge. Ye Tianchen’s determination to realize integration shifted, no longer failing swiftly, instead during body reassembly, this Origin Strange Energy and his body’s Martial Arts True Qi clashed continuously, striving to merge, gradually aligning towards compatibility.

Poof!

Yet, merging two distinct powers is akin to merging water and fire, inherently opposing like destined enemies. Ye Tianchen spat blood, yet he refused to relent, continuously urging his strength to aid the merge.

Boom!

Boom!

Gradually, within Ye Tianchen’s Dantian, two forces manifested; one became a dragon, the other, a dragon as well. Both dragons wandered inside, occasionally clashing—not fully fused yet, but no longer opposing like water and fire, mortal enemies—and they seemed to be striving earnestly.

Success!

Ye Tianchen finally reassembled his body successfully, yet he sat cross-legged within the ”Taiji Bagua Spirit Array,” motionless, resembling a lifeless corpse, his complexion pale; it’s unclear whether it’s a triumph or defeat!

”This is indeed unusual; merging two completely different forces into one, rarely seen in history!”

”Too defying of fate; if he recovers, he’s bound to be a significant threat to us!”

”Seems Ye Tianchen is on the cusp of success, undertaking final fusion steps!”

”If someone disrupts the formation now, unsettling his Divine Spirit, he could still face complete destruction!”

”Not easily done, this lad is under Battle King Qin Kongdao’s protection; who dares act against him? It’s courting disaster!”

”No, not completely successful yet; Ye Tianchen has merely reassembled his body successfully; this state is mysterious, might lead to success, or might be an empty celebration!”

No one anticipated Ye Tianchen defying nature, forcibly reassembling his body—signs of success evident. These two different forces, clearly opposing like water and fire, he achieved what seemed impossible. His will and potential indeed stunned some martial artists.

”I indeed judged correctly; you possess immense willpower and insight, an invincible Taoist Heart, nothing else matters!” Qin Kongdao murmured.

”Senior, I haven’t succeeded yet, but I absolutely won’t give up!” Ye Tianchen communicated through Divine Thought.

”Continue striving to merge the two forces in your Dantian; regardless of what happens, I will ensure your safety, no need to worry!” Qin Kongdao suddenly declared. (To be continued.
