Chapter 1775: Ancient Blood Protection!

Chapter 1775: Ancient Blood Protection! Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone looked at Ye Chen with widened eyes. Did their ears deceive them? What was Ye Chen talking about? Was he acting tough? He even wanted to provoke Zhao Kui?

It seemed that this kid had a death wish!

When Zhao Kui heard this, there was no anger on his face. However, his gaze became even gloomier, like a poisonous snake.

The spirit axe in his hand suddenly accelerated!

He was a ninth-level Dao Integration realm expert, but his strength surpassed his cultivation level. This terrifying power combined with the spirit axe in his hand erupted with destructive might!

Ye Chen’s expression changed slightly when he saw this. He could not dodge the attack, so he took out a Dao Integration-grade saber and unleashed his own attack.

After refining the Gengjin metal, it was time to test the power of the Golden Single Blade Slash!

The golden light the saber emitted was extremely bright and blinding, and it was suffused with high-quality and dense Gengjin energy.

Ye Chen’s terrifying power erupted.

Zhao Kui was indeed very strong, far stronger than Fen Kuang. Even Fen Kuang in his Sky Fall state was no match for the attack power that Zhao Kui had just displayed, so Ye Chen had to take it seriously.

However, he was looking forward to seeing how powerful the Golden Single Blade Slash was now.

His saber essence surged as Zhao Kui’s Spirit Axe collided with Ye Chen’s Golden Single Blade Slash…

Boom!

The entire underground square shook!

The burly old man waved his hand, and the dust that filled the sky instantly dissipated.

Two figures reappeared in everyone’s field of vision.

Silence. Even the sound of breathing had disappeared.

No one could believe that Zhao Kui’s full-powered axe attack had been blocked by Ye Chen.

Furthermore, it had not just been blocked…

Ye Chen was unharmed!

As for Zhao Kui?

Everyone looked at Zhao Kui, and their eyes narrowed.

The Spirit Axe had been broken by Ye Chen!

Was this really happening?

How was this possible?

Zhao Kui looked at the broken axe in his hand in a daze and roared, “How is this possible? How can a mere third-level Primordial Chaos realm cultivator be able to block my attack and break my weapon!?”

“I’m the foremost genius of the Heavenly Fire Family in the younger generation! I carry the glory and honor of the family! It’s impossible for me to…”

Before he could finish his words, blood gushed out of his body like a flood.

He lowered his head, trembling. He saw a deep saber wound on his chest. It almost cut him into two!

Not only had Ye Chen cut through his spirit axe, but he had also shattered his protective armor!

Ye Chen would not show any mercy to those who wanted to kill him!

After all, Ye Chen was now no longer afraid of most first-level Creation realm experts. What was Zhao Kui in comparison?

“No…” Zhao Kui roared and fell to the ground.

The head of the Heavenly Fire Family immediately pulled Zhao Kui back. He tapped his finger on Zhao Kui’s body, and countless medicinal herbs turned into specks of light that flowed into Zhao Kui’s body.

Zhao Kui was indeed the strongest genius of the Heavenly Fire Family. However, Zhao Xiu’s expression was getting more and more serious. Ye Chen’s attack was too powerful. Even he was not confident that he could save Zhao Kui. Even if he could save him, Zhao Kui would probably be a cripple.

“I told you that you would have to pay a price,” Ye Chen looked at Zhao Kui and said calmly.

However, that slash just now was not his full strength, or Zhao Kui would have died.

Ye Chen was extremely satisfied with the power of the Gengjin energy.

At that moment, Liu Ming was staring at Ye Chen. The corners of his lips curled up and his eyes revealed a strong desire to fight. He muttered to himself, “He can actually use this level of Gengjin energy and fuse it with his saber essence? Interesting. Ye Chen, you’re qualified to be my opponent!”

At this moment, Zhou Yan’s face was filled with a dull expression. He lost?

Zhao Kui lost? The powerful Zhao Kui actually lost?

Moreover, he was defeated by Ye Chen in one strike?

What should he do now?

Could he defeat Ye Chen? If he failed, what would Zhao Ping think? Could his plan still be realized?

He suddenly glared at Ye Chen with extreme hatred.

‘Why did you win?! You should have died! You’re just my stepping stone!’

However, he did not expect that his gaze would meet Ye Chen’s at this moment.

Ye Chen’s gaze was extremely cold, and Zhou Yan could not stop his body from trembling.

Ye Chen was not a fool. The weapon in Zhao Kui’s hand and the fact that he wanted to kill Ye Chen for no reason was most likely because he was instigated by a disciple of the Mystic Moon Sect.

Zining had mentioned Zhou Yan to him before. He was Zhao Ping’s disciple.

Ye Chen’s lips curled into a cruel smile. Zhao Ping?

It seemed that just destroying Zhao Feng wasn’t enough.

“Ye Chen wins. Zhao Kui is disqualified,” the burly elder announced.

“Is there anyone else who wants to challenge the other participants?” the burly old man asked after a moment.

Silence. This time, it was completely silent. No one spoke again.

The burly elder said, “Alright. Then the selection will end here. There are a total of forty-eight participants. They will fight in pairs decided by drawing lots. However, you will not draw people from your own families in the first round.”

“Alright, family heads, lead your members back to their respective residences to rest. The competition will officially begin tomorrow.”

Hearing this, everyone dispersed.

Soon, only the burly old man was left.

At this moment, a young man walked over from behind the old man and bowed respectfully to him. “Grand Elder!”

The old man glanced at him. “That Ye Chen kid just now was very strong. He’s not any weaker than that kid from the Spirit Shadow Family. You have to be wary.”

The young man’s expression turned serious as he nodded. “Thank you for your reminder, Grand Elder. I understand. For the honor of the Holy Family, I will not lose!”

The old man nodded and said, “Alright, you should go rest too. You are the strongest among the young generation in our secluded realm. You must win first place in the competition. The divine blood area of the Heavenly Pool must not be tainted by outsiders!”

“It’s time to cancel the agreement between the Mystic Moon Sect and our ancestors.”

“We’ve been living in seclusion here for too long. We don’t care about the matters of the Lingwu Continent, and we don’t want the people of the Mystic Moon Sect to share our Heavenly Pool.”

“Yes, sir,” Sun Yang said solemnly.

The old man sighed again and said, “Sigh, that kid from the Spirit Shadow Family is not any less talented than you. However, his brain doesn’t work quite right. Therefore, I’ll give you the Ancient Blood Protection. Don’t let us down.”

The Ancient Blood Protection was a special technique that could be given to a person in the secluded realm during the annual Martial Arts Competition along with the opening of the Heavenly Pool. The person could use the power of the Heavenly Pool to increase their abilities.

Normally, the Ancient Blood Protection would be given to the strongest young experts of the various races in the secluded realm to ensure that one of them would enter the divine blood area of the Heavenly Pool.
