Chapter 593 - 596: Unscathed!
The entire place fell into dead silence!
The vast riverside was devoid of sound, leaving only the rushing river’s roar.
Three prodigies!
Three Celestial Venerable Fourth Layer experts!
However.
They were wiped out by Ye Qingchen with a single hand. Indeed, Ye Qingchen had not even moved half a step from start to finish, appearing relaxed and unhurried. It was as if what he had obliterated were not Celestial Venerable experts, but mere ants.
In an instant.
Everyone was dumbfounded, staring at the young man in the center.
This scene happened in a flash.
But what occurred in that flash was beyond everyone’s expectations!
"Incredible! Incredible, is this his means? I thought he wouldn’t dare to fight before; now it seems these people weren’t even worthy of his action!"
"From where did this prodigy emerge? At Celestial Venerable Third Layer, possessing such strength? Even Tuoba Ye or Wu Xingyun at his level probably didn’t have such methods!"
"With just one palm, he exterminated three Celestial Venerable Fourth Layers. His power is terrifying!"
After a brief calm, exclamations of astonishment erupted around.
Between both sides.
The disparity in power was truly vast!
"Do you still want to kill me now?"
Ye Qingchen slowly retracted his right hand, eyeing Zhao Qian with a slight smile.
Swish!
At that moment.
Everyone’s gaze collectively turned to Zhao Qian.
At this time, Zhao Qian’s expression was extremely dark. He initially only wished to stand up for Zhao Mo and eliminate this brazen kid. Unexpectedly, he kicked an iron plate instead, having five of his men cut down by the opponent!
Though the opponent was merely Celestial Venerable Third Layer, his strength was already not beneath Zhao Qian’s.
But now, Zhao Qian had no choice but to forge ahead since any retreat would bring ridicule from everyone in the future!
"I underestimated you!"
Zhao Qian slowly opened his mouth.
His aura was imposing, his gaze proud, looking down on everything like an eagle overlooking ants.
"Although you’re only at Celestial Venerable Third Layer, your strength extends far beyond that. Even with Gong Wenqing, Yun Feng, and Zhuang Shikai teaming up, they couldn’t withstand a single palm of yours! However..."
With each step Zhao Qian took, his aura surged prominently.
"Do you think this is enough to contend with me?"
Boom!
As his words fell.
The aura of Celestial Venerable Fifth Layer had already, in this moment, burst forth like a tidal wave, sweeping turbulently. That tremendous power was far superior to Gong Wenqing, Yun Feng, and Zhuang Shikai combined.
This was already the aura of a Fifth Layer Peak!
Even reaching Celestial Venerable Sixth Layer was only a step away!
"What a profound, powerful aura!"
Everyone’s eyes were shocked as they looked toward Zhao Qian.
Understand this.
Even though the Spiritual Qi of Kunlun Realm was rich, achieving the Celestial Venerable was no easy task. And above the Celestial Venerable, each advancement was extremely challenging.
Zhao Qian had already traversed most of the path above Celestial Venerable, comparable to top-tier prodigies like Tuoba Ye, and Wu Xingyun. One day, he would undoubtedly break through the shackles and become a Human Immortal!
"Brother! Kill him!"
Zhao Mo shouted coldly.
His eyes were filled with resentment.
Others in the scene also looked at Ye Qingchen with pity:
’This young man, capable of crushing Gong Wenqing, Yun Feng, and Zhuang Shikai with just one hand at Celestial Venerable Third Layer, truly has immense talent! But he doesn’t realize that there’s always a higher mountain!’
’It seems, this time, it is finally going to end!’
Many thought silently to themselves.
"I don’t know where you emerged from, but you shouldn’t be arrogant in front of me!" Zhao Qian, expression proud, scrutinized Ye Qingchen from above, "If you surrender now, I might preserve your whole corpse."
"Are you done speaking?"
Ye Qingchen stood there, a trace of impatience on his face: "If you’re done, come up and die! If you had reached Celestial Venerable Eighth Layer, I wouldn’t hesitate to turn and leave! Yet with your mere Celestial Venerable Fifth Stage Peak, you dare show off in my presence!"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
They all stared at Ye Qingchen like a madman. Despite the difference of two levels, he dared to provoke actively? This wasn’t mere arrogance, but courting death!
Sure enough.
Zhao Qian’s expression changed, and he coldly said:
"You’re courting death!"
He raised his hand and struck!
In an instant.
All of the Spiritual Qi between the heavens and earth followed Zhao Qian’s immense palm, forming into a domineering giant palm, pressing down upon formation.
The riverside crowd was all horrified upon seeing this palm.
The power of this single palm was already multiple times greater than what Gong Wenqing and the others could muster together.
Even a mountain would be crushed by this palm.
"It’s over!"
At this moment.
Many onlookers cried out in surprise, with numerous female cultivators covering their eyes, unable to bear watching.
Celestial Venerable Fifth Layer boasted such methods; at Sixth Layer, or even Eighth and Ninth Layer, how formidable would they be!
However, with that crushing giant palm, Ye Qingchen merely lifted his hand and thrust.
"Boom!"
Just as the giant palm suddenly halted, as if smashing into an invisible barrier. Only cultivators with exceptionally keen sight could notice that the center of the giant palm was actually dented.
That dent was clearly a handprint!
"Boom!"
With an explosive sound.
In the incredulous eyes of everyone, the giant palm instantly shattered on the spot. The uncontrolled massive Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi transformed into a giant cloud ring, surging out in all directions.
By then, Zhao Qian already charged in.
He strode through the air, with invisible steps seemingly supporting him. The surging True Qi around him flowed like ocean waves, each stronger than the last. As he reached Ye Qingchen, it had already ascended to its peak!
The terrifying might made everyone lose color involuntarily.
"Can he withstand it?"
At this moment.
Everyone worriedly watched.
However, what they saw.
Was Zhao Qian already charging to Ye Qingchen’s front, bellowing and throwing a punch!
Boom!
This punch contained all his life’s cultivation, concentrating all his True Qi, all his might at the Celestial Venerable Fifth Stage Peak!
Zhao Qian was confident, even if Wu Xingyun or Tuoba Ye were present, he would dare to fight them!
"Mr. Ye, be careful!"
As the punch came down, Ye Qingchen stood there, unmoved, as if dumbfounded. Sea of Zhou’s eyes were wide and he exclaimed in a panic. Others in the crowd also had their expressions change dramatically, fearing that this punch’s power wasn’t something even a Celestial Venerable Fifth Layer could handle directly.
"Boom!"
Ultimately, the punch hit Ye Qingchen’s chest.
"Clang!"
A sound reminiscent of a copper bell in Hanshan Temple being struck suddenly echoed widely. An invisible sound wave emanated from the center between Zhao Qian and Ye Qingchen, transforming into a raging sonic wave, rolling outward vigorously.
Those nearby, unable to withstand the sound’s force, covered their ears and retreated. Those with weaker cultivation even spat a mouthful of blood, their aura like a flickering candle flame dying out.
"What happened?"
"Why didn’t he dodge or evade that punch?"
"Surely that punch killed him, right?"
Everyone stared intensely toward the center, eager to know the answer.
But in their minds.
Zhao Qian’s previous strike was a force to be reckoned with, overwhelmingly powerful, beyond ordinary defense. Even with all his efforts, Ye Qingchen couldn’t necessarily withstand it. Nevertheless, he allowed that punch to land on him?
Zhao Mo, full of cold demeanor:
"My brother’s punch, even if that brat were stronger, would have left him in pieces. How could he possibly survive... what?"
Before his words completed, his expression changed drastically, exclaiming in shock.
"What is happening?"
Everyone felt puzzled, glancing ahead keenly.
By now.
The dust in the scene settled, revealing an unbelievable scene. Meanwhile, Zhao Qian’s fist was formed, landing on Ye Qingchen’s chest! But Ye Qingchen stood there, unscathed, as if nothing had happened!
The entire crowd burst into an uproar!
Countless people stared at Ye Qingchen in disbelief!
