Although it was somewhat unbelievable, she had a feeling that this little guy knew many things she didn't, and that these things were all related to her...
& nbs
This feeling made her feel very uncomfortable.
“I’m pretty sure that what’s contained in this mass of energy is very likely the bloodline power of the Devouring Spirit Clan…” After a long while, Su Lingyin answered with certainty.
"Hehe, that's good. I thought all my efforts were going to be wasted..." As he spoke, Ye Chen naturally handed the ball of energy in his hand to Su Lingyin.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Lingyin accepted the ball of energy and then said in a deep voice, "Give me three days. I will leave with you after three days!"
"No problem!" Ye Chen grinned and replied.
Su Lingyin was already a three-star Dou Sheng several years ago, and now she has reached the peak of the three-star Dou Sheng level...
With the Devouring Spirit King bloodline that he had specially extracted from the Void Devouring Flame, breaking through to the four-star Dou Sheng level should be a matter of course.
Even an ordinary four-star Dou Sheng can often play a decisive role in the upcoming battle...
Not to mention a fully awakened Soul Devouring Clan Battle Saint.
Ye Chen had personally witnessed the power of the Devouring Spirit Clan from the memories of that Star Emperor!
……
……
Three days later, in Saint Dan City.
The Dan Tower Alliance controls nearly 70% of the power in the entire Central Continent. Even though the weakest among those gathered this time are Dou Zun level experts, it is still a massive force of tens of thousands of people.
Ye Chen stood in front of the crowd, his gaze sweeping over the row of people at the front of the line.
Among these people were some whom Ye Chen knew, such as Fairy Qinghua and Sect Master Yun Yun of the Flower Sect; Ancestor Huoyun and Valley Master Tang Zhen of the Burning Flame Valley, etc.
As for those he doesn't recognize, there are even more!
Without exception, those who could stand in the first row all possessed at least the strength of a peak Dou Zun, while many others were at the level of a Half-Saint or even a Dou Sheng...
"Alright, the chaos in Zhongzhou will all be decided by the outcome of today's battle. Everyone, move out!"
At his command, Ye Chen, along with Zi Yan, Xiao Chen, and all the other Dou Sheng of four stars or above, launched an attack, directly creating a thousand-foot-long spatial portal above Saint Pill City.
Subsequently, the entire Dan Tower Alliance group flew into the portal.
This scene naturally attracted the attention of the entire Central Plains.
Although everyone knew that the Dan Tower Alliance was preparing to take action against the Soul Palace, no one knew exactly what Ye Chen and his group's primary target was.
This can be considered a small advantage...
After entering the void, the massive group split into two. With his ancestor overseeing things, Xiao Yan led one-third of the group to the Burial Corpse Mountain Range, the location of the Human Hall, one of the three main halls of the Soul Palace.
As for the rest of the people, they rushed straight to the Heavenly Palace under Ye Chen's leadership!
The expected ambush by the Soul Clan in the void space did not occur, which disappointed Ye Chen and made him more vigilant.
"It seems that Hun Miesheng is preparing to confront me head-on... Thinking about it this way, the powerful figure sent by the Hun Clan has given him a lot of confidence."
Faced with the hostile Dan Tower Alliance, and without knowing their objectives, the best option for the Soul Palace was to concentrate its forces in one place and directly engage Ye Chen and the Dan Tower Alliance in a decisive battle.
Only in this way can we turn passivity into initiative and avoid haphazardly deploying defenses like headless flies, which would lead to the dispersal of our own forces.
Chapter 505 The Final Battle!
The Jue Tian Mountains are a mountain range located at the border between the Central Continent and the Chaotic Wilderness.
That towering peak directly separated the Central Plains from the turbulent wasteland, creating two completely different worlds inside and outside the mountain range...
People only know that after crossing this mountain range, they can enter the tyrannical and wild ancient region, but they do not know that entering this mountain range is also considered to step into the territory of the Heavenly Palace!
Tianjue Peak is the most majestic and precipitous peak in the Jue Tian Mountain Range, towering thousands of feet high. Some mountain paths are so steep that they seem to descend vertically, so there is no way to climb this mountain.
The sunlight on the horizon grew increasingly intense as time passed...
As the sun gradually hung high in the sky, the rock on Tianjue Peak, which had been naturally polished over hundreds of millions of years, became like a mirror, reflecting a pillar of light that shot into the sky.
From a distance, the beam of light appears to connect with the blazing sun in the sky, making it a truly magnificent sight.
Just as the pillar of light reached its peak, the space above the summit of Tianjue Peak suddenly began to distort rapidly...
Immediately, a huge spatial passage slowly took shape.
"Chichi!"
As soon as the spatial passage took shape, an overwhelming aura of terror burst forth from it, tearing the white clouds hundreds of miles above the sky to shreds.
"Is this the place...?"
Taking a step forward, Ye Chen looked around and murmured to himself.
Beside him followed a group of powerful Dou Sheng, including Elder Zhu, Zi Yan, Qing Lin, Little Fairy Doctor, Xuan Kongzi, and Su Lingyin.
Further back, there was a dense crowd of people, including the Trapped Void Ancestor and the Nine Profound Saints, numbering in the thousands!
Besides the numerous powerful figures on the surface, Ye Chen also brought his three Dragon King puppets, the three Dou Sheng of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan including Yao Ming enslaved in the Azure Scale Green Serpent Three Flower Child space, the Pill Tower Ancestor who had not yet shown himself but was preparing to intercept the Soul Clan's reinforcements in secret, and the Pure Lotus Demon Flame that Ye Chen had placed in the Star Essence Space. It can be said that the power Ye Chen brought this time was enough to suppress the two Soul Palaces...
This is the strongest force that Ye Chen can currently mobilize!
"Is the Soul Palace Heavenly Palace located in this mountain range? Let's just charge in..." Zi Yan looked eager to try, which seemed completely out of place with her usual noble and dignified demeanor.
Ye Chen chuckled softly, soothing the belligerent little girl, "Hehe, don't worry. We don't need to go in; they've already come out..."
"Hehe, as expected of the most talented and strongest guild master in the Dan Tower's history, you truly have a good eye..."
A slow, unhurried laugh rang out, and then the people of the Pill Tower saw the space on the other side of Heavenly Absolute Peak also rapidly distort...
As soon as the spatial passage took shape, a vast expanse of chilling black mist surged forth from it, and faint, mournful cries could be heard from within. Many people on the Pill Tower's side changed their expressions upon hearing this, and looked at the black mist with disgust.
"Those guys from the Soul Hall..."
Xuan Kongzi's expression was rather unpleasant.
For many years, the Soul Hall has been hunting souls, and the Pill Tower is the most severely harassed force. Over the years, countless powerful alchemists have been ambushed by the Soul Hall.
The most serious incident occurred during the tenure of the previous Little Pill Tower Master, when he accepted a...
disciple.
Unexpectedly, that disciple was actually a member of the Soul Clan who had concealed his identity. After being exposed, he actually ambushed and injured the Tower Master before fleeing...
The tower master spared the other party out of consideration for the master-disciple relationship, but the ungrateful fellow secretly joined forces with the Soul Clan experts to assassinate him.
Because of this incident, the Pill Tower directly engaged in a major battle with the Soul Palace, but ultimately suffered heavy losses and had to suppress this hatred...
The Soul Clan member who impersonated someone else to join the Pill Tower is none other than Soul Void, currently the number one alchemist in the Soul Clan!
This old monster, relying on the alchemy skills he learned from the Pill Tower, has cultivated countless powerful individuals for the Soul Clan. Meanwhile, the Pill Tower not only lost a Tower Master-level expert but also suffered a period of weakness lasting several hundred years. Even now, the Lesser Pill Tower can't even find a suitable candidate to become its Tower Master…
With such a deep-seated hatred, how could Xuan Kongzi and his generation not feel resentment?
"Seven Battle Saints, it seems the Soul Clan has sent quite a few people..."
Sensing the seven terrifying auras within the black mist, Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
It's important to understand that Ye Chen had eliminated many of the Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) experts in the Soul Palace. Even a two-star Dou Sheng like the Great Heavenly Venerable was killed by Ye Chen. So, apart from Hun Miesheng and that Vice Hall Master, the Soul Palace had no one else of note...
"The Soul Demon Elder and Soul Extinction are two five-star Dou Sheng. The only familiar face left is the deputy hall master. The others are all people I've never seen before. They must be powerful figures from within the Soul Clan."
Xuan Kongzi stood beside Ye Chen and said in a deep voice.
Zi Yan was somewhat displeased at this moment. She pouted and said, "This Soul Clan is no good. They only sent some low-level Battle Saints. They're not enough to fight them..."
On the surface, both in terms of numbers and the level of strength, the Dan Tower's Dou Sheng experts are stronger, which is why Zi Yan, who wanted to show off her skills, made this statement.
"Heh, quite the boast, indeed, you do have a bit of the Dragon Emperor's domineering and imposing manner..."
Hun Miesheng merely smiled coldly at Zi Yan's words, then turned his gaze to Ye Chen.
"A five-star Dou Sheng, it seems that President Ye has already subdued that Pure Lotus Demon Flame..."
It seemed that Hun Miesheng was completely unconcerned about the overwhelming force of the Pill Tower's army. Instead, he looked at Ye Chen with a confident expression and said calmly.
"Hehe, the Palace Master also deserves credit for this. Ye Chen would like to express his gratitude here..." Ye Chen said with a slight smile, subtly teasing the other party.
Hun Miesheng's expression stiffened slightly, clearly still unable to let go of what happened in the Demon Flame Space, especially since he had sealed the Demon Flame first, only to have Ye Chen steal the credit. Every time he thought of this, a nameless anger rose in his heart.
As for the matter of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame being deliberately sealed to incite their struggle, this Soul Palace Master had already selectively forgotten about it.
"Hmph! I won't waste my breath arguing with you!"
Hun Miesheng flicked his sleeve and said coldly, "Your Pill Tower army is pressing in, do you intend to destroy my Soul Palace?"
"Don't blame me for not warning you, with this alliance you've hastily assembled, you think you can swallow my Soul Palace whole? That won't be so easy!"
Ye Chen chuckled, "With the Soul Clan as your backer, you certainly have the right to say such things. However, facing the army of my Pill Tower Alliance, I wonder how many powerful warriors the Soul Clan has sent for you..."
Chapter 506 Soul-Destroying Sword, Thunder God Fist
Although the Soul Clan did not want the Soul Palace to disappear, it was not an easy task to send out a large number of powerful reinforcements.
Soul Palace Master Hun Miesheng looked at the confident Ye Chen opposite him, and the hatred in his heart had reached its peak.
This Soul Palace was built with his painstaking efforts over a thousand years, and now it is about to be overthrown. No one would be willing to accept that.
"Ye Chen! You and I are the leaders of our respective forces. Today, I, the Lord of Souls, challenge you to a duel. The millennia-long feud between the Soul Palace and the Pill Tower will be settled in this battle. Do you dare to accept?"
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, not expecting that Hun Miesheng would make such a request.
Given Ye Chen's personality, with his side holding a huge advantage, who would want to fight you one-on-one? I'd just crush you with my army!
However, after subduing the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, Ye Chen's strength increased significantly, and he was eager to see just how powerful he had become...
Although Soul Extinction is also only a five-star Dou Sheng, since he dared to make such a condition, he must have some trump cards, so he can be considered a good experimental subject.
"it is good!"
"I'll give you this chance!"
When Ye Chen uttered the word "good," the Soul Palace Master's eyes also flashed with a sharp light. Although he did not speak, everyone could feel the atmosphere in this world suddenly becoming oppressive.
"Heh heh, young man, what courage you have..." Beside the Hall Master of the Soul Palace, the old Soul Demon looked at Ye Chen with a cold expression and chuckled strangely.
Ye Chen merely glanced at the old monster, paying no heed to the sarcastic tone in his voice.
Whether it's a one-on-one duel or a group battle, in Ye Chen's mind, the destruction of the Soul Palace today is already a foregone conclusion. If he can give the Soul Clan some more deterrence, they should behave more obediently in the Central Continent.
Ultimately, the Soul Clan's main target nowadays is still other ancient races!
By grasping this point, Ye Chen had essentially seized control of the Soul Palace's Achilles' heel...
winter!
A muffled sound rang out, and everyone present felt the surrounding space tremble violently. Then they discovered that Ye Chen, who had been standing still, had vanished...
"what?!"
Even Soul Extinction, who had been focusing his attention on it, was taken aback...
Indeed, since his debut, Ye Chen has always relied on his immense battle qi, terrifying soul power, and various powerful battle techniques to win.
This is the first time I've ever seen such a violent, hand-to-hand combat based solely on speed!
Of course, although somewhat unexpected, Hun Miesheng's reaction was equally swift...
The instant he noticed Ye Chen's attack, the dark battle aura on his body condensed almost reflexively, quickly transforming into a black shield that was almost tangible.
winter!
Like a resounding bell, a soul-shaking sound wave emanated from the collision between the two, causing many who were less powerful to cover their ears.
Even worse, traces of blood had already seeped from the ears...
"retreat!"
Upon seeing this, Xuan Kongzi's expression changed, and he immediately signaled the members of the Pill Tower Alliance to retreat a hundred miles away. In the end, only a few Dou Sheng experts were still able to observe the battle up close.
Amidst the flying battle qi, both figures retreated a hundred feet simultaneously.
Soul Extinction's expression grew even more somber as he looked at Ye Chen, who remained calm and composed opposite him, and coldly said, "This is truly unexpected! It seems I still underestimated you. I didn't expect your speed and physique to have reached such a terrifying level!"
Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Oh? Is that so... Then you'll probably be even more surprised later..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Chen's hands had already turned into phantoms.
