“Ye Shi… No, it should be Ye Chen. Is he your disciple? If the Blood Sword Sect is after the same person, then Ye Chen should be from the Kunlun Mountains, right?” The Second Grand Elder asked.

“Disciple?” Venerable Immortal Ling Yun’s face turned cold instantly and she sneered, “The Spirit Immortal Palace doesn’t accept male disciples!”

“Besides, how could Ye Chen’s trashy bloodline and strength catch my eye?”

“He’s just a toad lusting after a swan.”

“He wants to pursue my disciple and refuses to give up. He’s a fellow that I hate, but can’t kill!”

“If you kill him, I will thank you,” Venerable Immortal Ling Yun said slowly and smiled.

“Oh? I see. Then it seems that I’ve jumped to the wrong conclusion. However, I’m not interested in killing Ye Chen.” The Second Grand Elder was still unsure of Venerable Immortal Ling Yun’s intentions. He said, “The Soul Race has agreed to let Ye Chen challenge the Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation, so he’s going to die anyway.”

“Why don’t we go and watch the battle?”

He did not dare to kill Ye Chen. Not only was there a chance that the kid was related to Venerable Immortal Ling Yun and the Spirit Immortal Palace, but the kid was also a disciple of the Myriad Swords Palace, which was even stronger than the Spirit Immortal Palace.

There was no reason to shoot himself in the foot and offend two major forces in order to kill one kid.

“Good. Why don’t we watch the challenge together? I want to see how he dies.”

Venerable Immortal Ling Yun did not think that Ye Chen would survive at all. She had planned to negotiate with the Soul Race’s ancestor for the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Dragon Herb after Ye Chen died. Then, she would save Ji Lin. She had not expected that the Beigong family had already made a deal with the Soul Race’s ancestor.

“Very well. Let’s go then.”

The Second Grand Elder gestured to Venerable Immortal Ling Yun, and soon, both of them emerged from a spatial rift in the Beigong family’s residence. After that, there was a discussion between Venerable Immortal Ling Yun, Beigong Hongtian and the elders, and they came to an understanding.

Everyone was now waiting to see just how Ye Chen would die.

…

Time flew by, and the day of the challenge arrived.

“Everyone, the three-day preparation period has concluded.”

Beigong Hongtian signaled to Venerable Immortal Ling Yun and the Second Grand Elder. He smiled and said, “I’m going to fetch Ye Chen now. Senior Ling Yun wants Ye Chen to die during the challenge, while the Beigong family simply wishes for nature to take its course!”

‘Anyway, this kid is as good as dead, and his death will also prevent him from seducing my daughter’s heart!’

After that, Beigong Hongtian tore space apart as he went to pick up Ye Chen. He also had his own plans, as he believed that Beigong Ziyu had fallen in love with Ye Chen.

Since Beigong Hongtian disliked Ye Chen, his death was naturally a good thing.

At this moment, in an inn at the foot of the mountain.

The inn that was being repaired experienced strong tremors, and the originally clear sky was filled with dark clouds in an instant.

This strange phenomenon originated from a room in the inn, where countless Buddhist runes and demonic energy overflowed from.

Many experts sensed something and rushed out of their rooms to observe what was happening. One of them tried to get close, but was repelled by the demonic energy, which pierced his body.

Blood filled the air!

From then on, no one dared to approach.

There was only one question in the minds of all of the cultivators present.

What kind of expert was breaking through in that room?

Inside the room…

Naturally, Ye Chen did not know what was happening outside. He suddenly opened his eyes and a cold glint flashed across them.

Two terrifying dragon runes surged around his body!

“I’ve finally broken through!”

“I have to thank that old hag Ling Yun for that extra boost of motivation. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to break through so smoothly!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his arms, and a shockwave of force burst out, sending the hundreds of Semi Divine realm and Divine King realm cultivators, who had gathered around the inn, flying!

An ancient and mysterious aura circulated around his body.

At this very moment, his physical body had finally reached the first level of the Void Body realm.

For body refining cultivation, the Bone Condensation realm required one to condense their bones, the Overlord Body realm required one to forge a golden body, the Astral Transformation realm required one’s body to contain astral power and reach the point where it was immune to poison, and the Void Body realm required one’s body to gain spatial properties so that one would not be afraid of the damage from spatial cracks and rifts. Void Body cultivators could use the spatial laws to tear through space to travel.

For ordinary cultivators who had not reached the Void Body realm, even if they were brought along by others to travel through space, they would still be injured by the power of spatial laws emitted by the spatial rift during the journey.

Ye Chen’s physical body had reached the first level of the Void Body realm, which meant that those below the eighth level of the Divine King realm would not be able to harm his physical body.

Even the attacks of stronger Divine King realm experts would only leave bruises on his body.

“I’ve finally returned to the state I was before, where my body refining cultivation realm surpassed my spiritual cultivation level.”

“If I fight above my level, I won’t have to worry about my body collapsing,” Ye Chen muttered to himself.

When he was at the Daoyuan realm, he had reached the seventh level of the Overlord Body, which was equivalent to the physical body of a sixth or seventh-level Semi Divine realm expert.

However, after he advanced to the Semi Divine realm, his body had remained at the Astral Transformation realm. As a result, when he used the combined power of his trump cards, his physical body had come very close to destruction.

Now, he did not have to worry!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, the Buddhist Dao appeared behind him, looking more solid and complete. His cultivation level had also increased and reached the eighth level of the Semi Divine realm.

At this moment, there was movement above Ye Chen’s head, and a spatial rift appeared, from which Beigong Hongtian appeared.

‘Breaking through at the last minute, but the result will still be the same.’

When he saw this scene, his face was filled with disdain.

From his perspective, Ye Chen was going to die anyway. Why would he still want to break through and cultivate?

Did he really think that he could change the outcome?

What a waste of resources!

That fourth-grade Heavenly Gold Beast’s blood essence had gone down the drain!

“Ye Chen, I’m here to bring you to the Soul Race’s territory!” Beigong Hongtian’s expression softened as he smiled.

Ye Chen glanced at Beigong Hongtian and a playful smile appeared on his face. He stretched his body and walked in that direction without saying a word, seemingly ignoring Beigong Hongtian.
