Chapter 315: Cangqian Divine Son, How Very Impressive
As Ye Cangqian continued to breathe, the energy he had devoured gradually began to digest. His realm showed clear signs of advancing further.
His Sword Tribulation First Refining Realm, which had been close to completion, was now rapidly reaching Perfection.
"Ye Tianling, even when I’m killing indiscriminately, I’m cultivating. You’re just an ant, a mongrel. How could you possibly compare to me?"
Ye Cangqian sneered with contempt.
He returned to his human form. His eyes were blood-red, and his demeanor had become even more frenzied and savage.
"Where is it? The Illusion Mist Divine Beast."
Ye Cangqian asked Ye Wuhen directly.
"Over there. Let’s go."
Ye Wuhen had already used his calculations and Sensing to lock onto the location of the Illusory Mist Divine Beast Xu Hanyan. He immediately flew in that direction.
VMMM—
Suddenly, a ripple spread through the Void.
Then, Wan Jianyun’s figure manifested.
Beside Wan Jianyun stood Die Xiyue and three other Elders at the Sword Tribulation Third Refining Realm. They were fully armed, their deadly Weapons already drawn.
"Ye Cangqian, are you even human anymore? This wanton slaughter of the innocent... you’re even more despicable than a true Demon!"
Wan Jianyun roared.
He had seen Ye Cangqian devour and obliterate Elders and True Disciples of the Myriad Swords Sect, killing over a hundred people in a single gulp. He was absolutely incandescent with rage!
"Human? Humans are nothing but lowly ants! I, Ye Cangqian, am no human. I am a god! An Ancient Divine Beast!"
Ye Cangqian let out a wild, cold laugh. He snorted. "Excellent. You’ve finally shown your face, you dog. Saves me the trouble of hunting you down! Hand over Ye Tianling’s three women, and I’ll grant you a swift death. I’ll even stop killing these other ants!"
As Ye Cangqian spoke, Ye Wuhen gave him a subtle signal.
Ye Cangqian understood at once and immediately began Stepping into the Void, moving forward.
"Insolent!"
Wan Jianyun bellowed.
He knew he was no match for Ye Cangqian, but he was the Sect Master of the Myriad Swords Sect. How could he stand by and do nothing while his Elders and Disciples were slaughtered before his very eyes?
"Insolent? Wan Jianyun, you’re truly... courting death!"
Ye Cangqian said calmly.
His gaze hardened. A terrifying light of Destruction Dao gathered around his Taotie Divine Soul, manifesting directly into a Divine Beast Battle Soul that charged violently toward Wan Jianyun.
"Ten Thousand Swords Technique! Ten Thousand Souls Sword Dao!"
Wan Jianyun burned his Lifebound Essence Blood without hesitation, channeling his strongest killing intent as he moved to attack Ye Cangqian directly!
BOOM—
Ye Cangqian’s Divine Beast Battle Soul erupted with overwhelming force. The Ten Thousand Swords Technique and Ten Thousand Souls Sword Dao had barely been unleashed before they were shattered.
PFFT—
A murderous power of Destruction, as if Piercing the Void itself, shot out and tore straight through Wan Jianyun’s body.
BOOM—
Wan Jianyun’s body exploded into a mist of blood and gore. He was on the verge of Transformation Dao.
But just then, a Ten Thousand Swords Mark inside his body suddenly blazed with a brilliant light.
The light was blinding. In an instant, it gathered all of Wan Jianyun’s scattered flesh and blood.
Then, a terrifying Holy Dao Power converged.
’Hm? A Half-step Sword Saint?’
Ye Wuhen’s expression grew a little more serious, but he wasn’t particularly concerned.
Although Wan Jianyun’s body had reformed, allowing him to escape certain death, he was still gravely wounded and in a near-death state.
And from within that white light, three figures manifested: Ma Liang, the First Saint Son of the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Land, along with Saint Child Wang Congjie and Saint Child King Huangshen.
"Cangqian Divine Son, quite impressive, aren’t you!"
Ma Liang’s tone was laced with sarcasm the moment he appeared.
Although he was wary of Ye Cangqian, an enemy had attacked the Myriad Swords Sect—the foremost Sect under the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Land’s banner—and was acting with such arrogance. He had no choice but to intervene.
"Hmph—"
Ye Cangqian completely ignored the three Saint Children—Ma Liang, Wang Congjie, and King Huangshen. Instead, he reached directly for Die Xiyue—he remembered that she and Wan Jianyun were on very good terms with Ye Tianling!
This was especially true for Die Xiyue. Her bond with Ye Tianling was not just that of a master and disciple; it was akin to the love between cultivation partners.
He took one long look at Die Xiyue and was instantly captivated by her fairy-like beauty. A furious jealousy immediately flared in his heart.
"Come here!"
He intended to capture Die Xiyue, and just as he had with that nine-year-old girl from the Ye Race, he wouldn’t just kill her. He would violate her, shred her clothes, and nail her corpse to the Myriad Swords Sect’s Guardian Light Array!
With Ye Wuhen, a Nine Source Sword Saint, at his side, and with his royal father’s command to "Do as You Please," he feared nothing.
Ye Cangqian made his move.
He assumed no one would dare to truly oppose him, but he was mistaken.
Wang Congjie and King Huangshen struck at the same time, shattering his terrifying attack.
Ye Cangqian was at the Sword Tribulation First Refining Realm, while Wang Congjie and King Huangshen were both at the Sword Tribulation Seven Refining Realm. In terms of Realm alone, they were far stronger than Ye Cangqian.
Furthermore, they were two powerful Saint Children whose strength was not far behind Long Yunfan’s. They had earned their positions through their own efforts and were by no means individuals with undeserved reputations.
BOOM—
The two of them exchanged several blows with Ye Cangqian.
Ye Cangqian was forced back, looking somewhat disheveled.
The Void boomed with continuous explosions. The eyes of Wang Congjie and King Huangshen were ice-cold.
Meanwhile, Ma Liang administered some Healing to Wan Jianyun before having Die Xiyue help him retreat.
Then, he turned to face Ye Cangqian and Ye Wuhen. "The Myriad Swords Sect is an important Sect under the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Land! For you to run rampant and slaughter the innocent is an outrage to gods and men alike! How does such behavior make you any different from an Outer Celestial Demon?!"
Ye Cangqian snorted. "You lowlife. Do you have any right to speak here?"
Ma Liang’s face darkened. "Arrogant. You really are arrogant. I wonder where this arrogance was when you were getting beaten so badly you were shitting yourself?!"
Ye Cangqian flew into a rage. Veins bulged on his forehead as a bloody light flared around him. "You lowlife, you’re courting death!"
"Courting death? Fine, come on! Today, I’ll beat you to a pulp on behalf of the Celestial Secret Divine Son!"
Ma Liang shot a deep, wary glance at Ye Wuhen, but he still turned to confront Ye Cangqian directly.
He wasn’t afraid. Wan Linmo, the Saint Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Land, already knew what was happening here and would arrive shortly.
’The man beside Ye Cangqian is formidable, to be sure, but can he really be stronger than a Saint Master?’
Ma Liang had made his own judgment, but he had never considered that this Ye Wuhen was an Unparalleled Sword Saint at the Nine Source Sword Saint Realm!
BOOM—
Ma Liang’s qi and blood erupted. An imposing, majestic aura of the Extreme Dao spread from him. The terrifying pressure struck at their very minds, causing the hearts of both Ye Cangqian and Ye Wuhen to sink.
’This... Is this the Extreme Dao Slaughter Talent?’
Ye Wuhen’s heart sank, and he was utterly shocked.
’How can such a terrifying, unparalleled genius exist on this broken planet! What kind of world is this?’
Ye Wuhen’s heart began to pound wildly. An inexplicable sense of crisis washed over him.
