Chapter 577: Chapter 576: The Secret of Tongtian, Confronting Head-On

Shi Fengchun felt it was necessary to give Ye Chen a bit of basic knowledge about the Heaven-Reaching Realm!

”Ye Chen, that Heaven-Reaching Realm guy from the Celestial Demon Sect is named Liu Fan. He’s an uncle of Liu Chaoran, and he’s a Three Caves Heaven-Reaching Realm Third Layer.”

Ye Chen: ”Three Caves? What’s that about?”

Shi Fengchun rolled his eyes at Ye Chen.

He guessed Ye Chen might not know, but he didn’t expect him to truly be clueless.

Not even understanding the basics of the Heaven-Reaching Realm, yet thinking of going up against a powerhouse of that level, what a daring spirit!

Shi Fengchun said, ”The path of Martial Dao is actually roughly the same as the path of Spirit Dao.

In Spirit Dao, the strength of the Celestial Seal is determined by how many groups of spirit patterns you condense.

Condensing a Celestial Seal with spirit patterns within three groups is considered a normal Spirit Master.

Condensing seals with four to six groups is an Earth Seal Spirit Master, already considered a genius.

While condensing seals with seven to nine groups is a Celestial Seal Spirit Master. Any Celestial Seal Spirit Master is a top-notch prospect in the Spirit Dao path.

In Martial Dao, there is a similar division, although there isn’t a clear boundary before reaching the Heaven-Reaching Realm.

But once you reach the Heaven-Reaching Realm, the distinction becomes obvious, because, in the past, there was another name for the Heaven-Reaching Realm, called the Grotto Heaven Realm!

Martial artists at this level open up a world of their own inside.

One grotto is the Heaven-Reaching Realm.

Nine grottos are also the Heaven-Reaching Realm.

But can they be the same?”

With this explanation, Ye Chen naturally understood immediately.

Ye Chen said, ”Indeed, they are different. Even if a guy with one group of spirit patterns condensed into a Celestial Seal is of the same Spirit Realm as me, they wouldn’t be enough for me to kill a hundred of them.”

Shi Fengchun’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch once again. He asked, ”Have you always been a Celestial Seal Spirit Master?”

”Yes.”

”Why have I never seen you use Spirit Master techniques before?”

”I didn’t want to use them. I wanted to hone my Sword Dao and keep a trump card for myself.” Ye Chen’s answer was straightforward. He couldn’t let the embarrassing secret of his broken Celestial Seal slip out.

Shi Fengchun couldn’t help but ask, ”How many groups of spirit patterns are in your Celestial Spirit Seal?”

Ye Chen: ”Only nine groups.”

Shi Fengchun’s eyelids twitched!

Only nine groups?

Is that even human language?

Nine groups of spirit patterns condensed into a Celestial Seal is already the pinnacle of Spirit Dao!

Moreover, Ye Chen is walking the path of the Extreme Spirit Master.

Originally, Shi Fengchun intended to teach Ye Chen a lesson with some basics of the Heaven-Reaching Realm, but ended up feeling outshone. Keeping a straight face, he brought the topic back, ”Ye Chen, I know your current strength is quite impressive, but you’re still too arrogant.

Do you think that just because you can kill Yu Zhan, you can kill Liu Fan from the Three Caves Heaven-Reaching Realm?

To be honest, Yu Zhan’s strength is more than enough to handle a powerhouse of the One Cave Heaven-Reaching Realm Third Layer, but if he had to fight against a Two Caves Heaven-Reaching Realm Third Layer opponent, he would lose without any suspense.

Jiang Hao from East Desolate City has several records of directly taking down strong enemies of the Heaven-Reaching Realm, but the strongest one he killed was only a Two Caves Heaven-Reaching Second Layer.”

Ye Chen remarked with an ”Oh”.

It seems that the Three Caves Heaven-Reaching is quite difficult to kill, but that doesn’t mean I can’t...

When I crushed Yu Zhan and Yu Tianyi, I was merely at the peak of Transcendent, just entered the Tier Seven Ultimate Celestial Seal Spirit Master.

But now, while the Spirit Master Realm hasn’t changed, my Martial Arts Realm is already at the Unity Realm First Layer, with a perfected sword body. Besides this, the Taiyan First Transition fire seal has almost condensed.

If this still can’t kill Liu Fan from the Three Caves Heaven-Reaching Realm Third Layer, then I might as well use those three drops of Yellow Springs water.

End him!

We have to go to war with the Celestial Demon Sect sooner or later. Dealing with one more enemy now means one less problem in the future!

”Brother Chen, I’ll go with you. I’ve gained strong combat abilities now. In the Celestial Extinction Ancient Tomb, I inherited a spirit pattern trait and learned a move called Spirit Stream Divine Finger. With the imprinted trait, I can release the power of two Spirit Stream Divine Fingers at once!” Mu Qingqing said, raising her head a bit proudly.

Little Phoenix was also eager, saying, ”Big Brother, besides Phoenix Dance of Nine Heavens, I’ve awakened a new heritage, called Phoenix Fire Chain!”

”I also want to kill a Heaven-Reaching Realm powerhouse from the Celestial Demon Sect.” Xie Xue immediately drew her sword.

The last to speak was Lin Xiang.

”I... I’ve developed a Demon Madness Pill. After using it, the power outburst will gain a great boost. The pill’s energy will leave you weak for a while, but I assure the Demon Madness Pill won’t have other effects on cultivation!”

Ye Chen glanced at Lin Xiang with some surprise.

This was Brother Chun’s informant placed in Yang Province. Brother Chun is truly impressive, getting informants near the Hall Master Li Zhen of the Yangzhou True Martial Hall.

However, Lin Xiang has already broken with Li Zhen and is now one of us.

An Alchemist... interesting, being able to develop an explosive power-type pill with such minor side effects. In the future, we could cultivate a bond to mass-produce them and take them to the Outer Heavens for emergencies!

”No need, this battle, Brother Chun and I can handle it,” Ye Chen said.

What’s going on?

Three young ladies and a female phoenix, joining the battle would only create more chaos.

Shi Fengchun also said, ”You all shouldn’t go. If anything unexpected happens, you won’t be able to bear the consequences.”

Ye Chen said, ”Brother Chun, let’s go.”

”Are you really decided?” Shi Fengchun looked at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen casually replied, ”Then let’s not go.”

What is he pretending for? It’s obvious Brother Chun wants to do it even more than I do!

”Go, immediately!”

Shi Fengchun snorted coldly, and immediately, his power swept forth, carrying everyone and quickly traversing through the void, pursuing in the direction where the three members of the Celestial Demon Sect left.

Half an hour later.

A gentle force suddenly surged from Shi Fengchun, enveloping Mu Qingqing, Little Phoenix, Xie Xue, and Lin Xiang, sending them out of the void.

”The Celestial Demon Sect members are just ahead. You all stay here; Ye Chen and I will go kill them!”

With those words, Shi Fengchun and Ye Chen disappeared from their original spot.

......

At that moment.

The three members of the Celestial Demon Sect, with gloomy faces, continued their journey while conversing.

The weakest among them, Liu Fan, grumbled and cursed.

”That damn Ye Chen, having killed Chaoran, we have no way of explaining ourselves when we return. Damn it, if we at least had a piece of Ye Chen’s corpse to show, it would have been easier to explain!”

The other two remained silent.

If not for seeing Liu Fan as part of the Liu family, they would have slapped him to death long ago. All his ranting was getting on their nerves!

”Chaoran’s dead, Ye Chen is also dead, but we can’t just go back to the Celestial Demon Sect like this. You know my cousin’s temper.

So, I have a suggestion. Let’s make a detour to Celestial Cyan City, and bring back a few people associated with Ye Chen. That way, my cousin’s anger might partially subside, and it’ll be easier for us.

What do you think? Are you in or not?”

The other two exchanged glances.

The Saint Realm powerhouse among them, with eyes full of determination, said, ”Deal!”

But just then.

With a rumble, a vast expanse of sky shattered, and a massive handprint formed by the Thunder Law slammed down on them!

The Saint Realm powerhouse of the Celestial Demon Sect roared in anger, throwing a punch, flames spiraling around his fist, shattering that Thunder Law handprint.

”Shi Fengchun, don’t think I don’t know it’s you!”

The Celestial Demon Sect’s Saint Realm powerhouse shouted, his body ablaze!

Shi Fengchun laughed heartily, bursting out of the void, saying, ”A bunch of trash still trying to play dirty? The Hall Master will destroy you now!”

The Dharma Realm peak powerhouse of the Celestial Demon Sect stood beside the Saint Realm powerhouse, a colossal mountain-like Dharma resembling several hundred feet high appearing beside him!

”The other members of the True Martial Hall must be nearby,” the Celestial Demon’s Saint Realm powerhouse shouted, ”Liu Fan, hold Shi Fengchun off, while you find those guys!”

They couldn’t defeat Shi Fengchun, but they weren’t afraid either. As long as they could find Mu Qingqing and the others, Shi Fengchun wouldn’t dare to continue recklessly.

Liu Fan understood the critical nature of his task, not hesitating at all as he darted out of the battlefield!

Just as he broke out a hundred meters away, with a swoosh, a massive Sword Qi suddenly slashed out from the void!

Liu Fan abruptly halted, throwing a punch to shatter that Sword Qi.

Immediately afterward, Liu Fan’s eyes widened.

”Ye Chen... you’re actually alive...”

Holding a sword as he flew out from the void, Ye Chen sneered, ”You want to go after my friends?”

The surprise faded from Liu Fan’s face, and he grinned viciously, ”You’re alive, then carrying your corpse back to the Celestial Demon Sect will suffice as an explanation, hahaha!”

”I guarantee you’ll die a horrible death!”

Ye Chen shouted in anger, this despicable guy, full of sinister ideas, must be killed quickly!

In the next moment, an extremely sharp aura erupted from Ye Chen, countless Sword Qi shooting toward Liu Fan like a torrent!
