Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1061: Chapter 1060: Encountering Calamity, Horror and Gloom

The Celestial Wind Emperor looked at the Celestial Child Emperor, a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

This is... truly tragic!

This is the first time in history that such an event has happened in the Celestial Burial Sea.

A Great Emperor went out on a trip, only to return and find his lair completely destroyed.

”Celestial Child Emperor, Ye Chen is becoming a force to be reckoned with, and the key issue is the so-called Asura Army he leads; this must be thoroughly investigated as it is the greatest threat.

I think it wouldn’t hurt for the Celestial Child Emperor to come with me to the Ten Thousand Islands Sect and discuss future plans with Emperor Tian Wan. What do you think?”

The Celestial Child Emperor responded with a hum.

Endless humiliation rose in his heart.

A dignified Great Emperor, reduced to a pitiful state!

...

On an island shrouded by mysterious forces.

Fatty Yu Hui was facing an enormous fat man, indignantly accusing Ye Chen of his domineering arrogance.

”Master, that Ye Chen is nothing but a rascal. I delivered the elixir to him, and upon finding out it was sent by you, he stabbed me without a word, and he even tried to kill me... This time, I barely escaped with my life...

Master, Ye Chen’s power is so overpowering. The wound from his sword has yet to heal... Look, Master, this bloody hole keeps bleeding.

Master, you must stand up for me and take down that bastard Ye Chen!”

Fatty spoke as he cried, feeling deeply aggrieved.

The enormous fat man snorted coldly and asked, ”Did Ye Chen take the elixir?”

Fatty replied, ”He did. He is suspicious by nature, but when I said he injured me and I wouldn’t give him the elixir, claiming I’d take it myself, he fell for the trick and snatched it immediately. I watched him swallow it with my own eyes!”

The enormous fat man glanced at Yu Hui and said, ”Since you’ve completed the task I assigned, from now on, stay by my side.”

Fatty replied, ”Thank you, Master.”

The enormous fat man waved his hand, a force surged into the bloody hole in Fatty’s abdomen, erasing the aura of Ye Chen’s united spirit and martial arts, healing the wound. He then said, ”Find a place to live on the island. I’ll find you if there’s anything.”

...

Martial Alliance Headquarters.

The Celestial Cauldron Emperor had already left, but Ye Chen remained.

Originally, Ye Chen had already gained great fame from his battle against the Celestial Child Emperor.

With the news of Ye Chen’s destruction of the Celestial Child Divine Island spreading, his reputation rose dramatically.

Now, no one dared to regard Ye Chen as just a young, impulsive lad anymore.

He is a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with a Great Emperor, a super-strong individual capable of confronting a Great Emperor head-on!

Thus.

With Ye Chen helping to stabilize the Martial Alliance, the internal situation was rapidly stabilizing.

On this day.

Liu Mubai approached Ye Chen and said, ”Yanran has already communicated with Celestial Master Zhang, and Celestial Master Zhang has agreed to meet with you. Come, I’ll take you there.”

A hint of excitement flashed through Ye Chen’s heart.

The reason for staying at the Martial Alliance was for this—to discuss with Zhang Qianye the grand strategy to deal with the taboo calamity of the Divine Appraisers!

Before long, Ye Chen and Liu Mubai arrived at an extremely desolate area.

Looking around, there was not a soul in sight.

The air was filled with a decaying odor, and an eerie cold wind howled, accompanied by shrill, piercing wails echoing.

Liu Mubai said, ”This is where Celestial Master Zhang is in seclusion; no one dares to approach.”

Ye Chen replied, ”Master Uncle, you should head back. I’ll go in alone.”

Liu Mubai said, ”Then be careful.”

After Liu Mubai left, Ye Chen immediately pushed his Martial Arts Divine Eye to its limits, his spiritual power unfurling, covering the surroundings.

This is the taboo of the Divine Appraiser, extremely dangerous, which has eroded the lives of one Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser after another over the long years.

Those troubled Celestial-tier Divine Appraisers had powerful allies, yet they still couldn’t withstand this terrifying taboo.

The reason why the ancestor of the Sikong Clan from Divine Mirror Island could resist for some time was that he had already reached the Half-Step Divine Realm, surpassing a Great Emperor.

Ye Chen walked forward cautiously.

Suddenly, a cold wind swept across the back of his neck.

Involuntarily, goosebumps covered his body.

Ye Chen spun around swiftly, the Celestial Mark Sword drawn with a whoosh.

Yet, there was nothing behind him, just emptiness.

However, the goosebumps on Ye Chen’s body became more pronounced. Intangibly, it felt as if countless eyes were watching him.

On the ground, in the sky, to the left, to the right... it felt like eyes were everywhere.

Ye Chen took a sharp, cold breath.

The taboos of the Divine Appraiser, truly terrifying!

Even someone as usually fearless as him was now somewhat apprehensive.

The whistling cold wind in this area intensified.

The piercing, sharp sounds were incredibly jarring, even shaking Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness!

Just then.

A shadow flickered abruptly, appearing before Ye Chen like a ghost.

Without hesitation, Ye Chen swung his sword down!

”It’s me!”

The figure in front of Ye Chen sidestepped his attack and immediately spoke.

Ye Chen: ”...”

The person before him was none other than Zhang Qianye, the Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser of the Martial Alliance...

Embarrassing!

Nearly chopped off Zhang Qianye...

Zhang Qianye said, ”Celestial Master Ye, you’ve briefly felt the eeriness here. I advise you to leave; you are young and have a bright future, no need to come here and throw your life away.”

Ye Chen said, ”Celestial Master Zhang, I’ll eventually encounter such things sooner or later, think of it as coming to gain some experience.”

Zhang Qianye: ”...You might not have to face it. Not every Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser encounters a taboo calamity; perhaps you’ll be one of the lucky ones.”

Ye Chen said, ”Whether it’s good or bad, I encounter it all. I don’t even know if I should call it good luck or bad luck.”

That is the truth.

All sorts of troubles come knocking.

Yet, also reaping benefits from everywhere.

Zhang Qianye let out a long sigh, his expression bleak, and said, ”Celestial Master Ye, why dive into this mess? I... have actually accepted my fate.”

Ye Chen said, ”That day, when Tong Dabao and the others tried to kill me, Celestial Master Zhang acted righteously, so today, I must try to help Celestial Master Zhang through this ordeal.”

Zhang Qianye said, ”That day, I just didn’t want to see the Martial Alliance continue in chaos.”

Ye Chen said, ”So, I’m not purely here to help Celestial Master Zhang, but also preparing for the time I might face something like this in the future.”

Zhang Qianye was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, ”Then let’s go, they’ll be here soon.”

Ye Chen: ”They?”

Zhang Qianye shook his head with a bitter smile, ”I’m not entirely sure either, you’ll know soon enough.”

Then, Zhang Qianye led the way, guiding Ye Chen to his secluded retreat.

Trailing behind Zhang Qianye, Ye Chen had a tingling scalp.

Because he noticed a faintly appearing, eerie face on Zhang Qianye’s head, neither smiling nor crying.

That face, indescribably strange, with two illusory eyes, stared intently at Ye Chen!

He really wanted to swing his sword over...

But if he did, the one losing a head would definitely be Zhang Qianye...

Ye Chen could only suppress the impulse, wearing a similarly wry expression, neither smiling nor crying.

If you look at me like that, I’ll look at you like this too!

Who is afraid of whom?!
