Chapter 692: I've Decided To Call For Back-up
Naturally, Madam Chu wanted the Chu Palace to remain vigilant. After all, the First God's sudden appearance back then had shocked both the Primordial Spirit Land and the Chu Palace. They had not expected that such a terrifying figure could appear from outside their worlds. With the First God as the precedence, who could guarantee that a figure like the First God wouldn't appear anymore?
The possibility was low, but they dared not dismiss it entirely.
Ye Guan's talent and strength were highly unusual. Moreover, it seemed like he had a formidable backing.
Boom!
A radiant sword light erupted, blasting Yuanshi away. His flesh burst apart into a bloody mist, and when he finally stopped, a sword pierced his forehead.
Yuanshi's eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief. He wanted to say something, but the sword lodged in his forehead trembled slightly, killing him instantly.
Ye Guan had no intention of wasting words with his opponent. He knew too well that unnecessary complications often arise from excessive talking.
It was best to eliminate his enemies first before anything else.
The elites of the Divine Temple revealed solemn looks upon seeing Yuanshi's death at Ye Guan's hands.
Yuanshi is dead? How is that possible? Yuanshi has seventy percent divinity, while Ye Guan is just an Imperial Sovereign Realm cultivator; how did he kill Yuanshi?Ye Guan ignored the shocked gazes and closed his eyes. Rather than exhausted, he felt incredibly refreshed after the battle. He was becoming increasingly proficient with his mysterious sword technique.
Clearly, real combat was truly necessary to hone a sword technique.
After a while, Ye Guan opened his eyes and stared at the elites of the Divine Temple.
The elites of the Zhen Clan were being suppressed by the overwhelming numbers of the God Clan and the Divine Temple. However, Yuanshi's death was so unexpected to the elites of the Divine Temple that they immediately entertained thoughts of retreating. Earlier, Yuanshi had led them into thinking that they were here to watch and reap some profits. Unfortunately, Ye Guan was far more terrifying than they could have ever expected.
In the shadows, Madam Chu's expression turned solemn when she saw Ye Guan's decisive manner in killing Yuanshi.
"His talent is monstrous indeed," Madam Chu remarked. Yuanshi was not exactly strong in the bigger picture, but he still had seventy percent divinity, while Ye Guan was merely at the Imperial Sovereign Realm!
The fact that Ye Guan could cross such a huge chasm between their realms was truly surreal.
Unbeknownst to the majority of everyone on the battlefield, another group was observing them from a distance. It was the Northern Demon King's group, and the Northern Sealing Demon General was next to him.
The Northern Demon King's face was extremely grim. He didn't expect that Ye Guan was strong enough to kill Yuanshi.
The Northern Sealing Demon General had a grim face as well. He also didn't expect that Ye Guan would improve so quickly, as it hadn't been that long since they fought him. To be honest, his gut was telling him that fighting the young swordsman was an unwise choice. The young swordsman was simply too abnormal and too talented, which meant that his backers had to be extraordinary figures.
"He must die," said the Northern Demon King in a low voice.
The Northern Sealing Demon General was slightly taken aback. "Why?"
"He is too talented. If he is allowed to grow, he will become a threat to the Ancient Wilderness."
"What is Lady Demon Moon's stance on this?"
"She wants to sit and watch as the others fight, but she may personally eliminate him if it's necessary."
The Northern Sealing Demon General went silent and stared at Ye Guan. He could only hope that his gut feeling was wrong and that Ye Guan had no extraordinary backers.
Otherwise, the Ancient Wilderness was truly going to be in danger.
Just then, three mysterious figures appeared behind the Northern Demon King—they were his three Divine Generals!
The Northern Demon King and his three Divine Generals were enough for the former to dominate the battlefield.
The Northern Demon King swept his gaze across his three Divine Generals. "Wait for my command."
He was ready to make a move, but the opportune time to make a move had yet to arrive. He wanted to let the God Clan exhaust Ye Guan a bit more.
Swoosh!
A middle-aged man suddenly appeared in front of Ye Guan. He was none other than Shen Wu of the God Clan.
Shen Wu stared at Ye Guan with a solemn expression. Clearly. he also did not expect that Ye Guan would end up killing Yuanshi. It seemed that Yuanshi was way weaker than he thought.
"Let me see just how extraordinary you are!" Shen Wu roared and stepped forward.
Rumble!
A thousand-meter-tall divine statue materialized behind him. Shen Wu had decided to use his killing move at once as he dared not underestimate Ye Guan anymore.
Ye Guan stared at the divine statue; the divine statue's powerful aura struck his face, making his hair dance in the wind.
Shen Wu's divine statue was the strongest divine statue he had ever encountered so far. Although Shen Wu and Yuanshi both possessed seventy percent divinity, Shen Wu was evidently far stronger than Yuanshi.
However, the discovery made Ye Guan excited rather than afraid. His fight with Yuanshi had become boring at the end, as Yuanshi lost his fighting spirit and remained in a passive position until his death.
Ye Guan closed his eyes, and the Invincible Sword Intent burst out of him in the form of sword lights that rushed toward the divine statue.
A ferocious light flashed in Shen Wu's eyes at the sight. He stepped forward, and the enormous divine statue behind him leaned down, delivering a powerful punch toward Ye Guan.
Boom!
The nearby spacetime trembled violently as a terrifying wave of energy rushed toward Ye Guan like a tidal wave.
Swoosh!
The sword lights coalesced into swords that rained down on the divine statue... both sides had chosen to confront each other head-on!
BOOM!
A deafening explosion echoed, followed by a terrifying shockwave that spread in all directions.
Ye Guan was blasted several thousand meters away, while Shen Wu was also forced to retreat rapidly. The divine statue behind him flickered, becoming illusory.
When Shen Wu finally recovered his balance and stopped, he glared fiercely at Ye Guan. The next moment, he pointed at his own forehead, and a drop of blood essence shot out of his forehead before merging with the divine statue behind him.
Rumble!
The divine statue's aura surged crazily. Moments later, it howled and swung its fist toward Ye Guan, annihilating every inch of spacetime in the way.
The nearby supreme elites frantically retreated, running away from the battlefield
Ye Guan dared not hold anything back in the face of the oncoming punch. He activated his two bloodline powers, causing his aura to skyrocket.
Madam Chu's eyes narrowed, and she muttered in disbelief, "Two bloodline powers?"
The white-robed young man asked, "Grandmother, have you seen that bloodline before?"
Madam Chu shook her head and said, "I've seen many unique bloodlines, and our Chu Family's bloodline is special, too, but… our bloodline is not as strong as this young man's bloodline."
Astonishment flickered in Madam Chu's eyes. Ye Guan's bloodlines had exceeded her expectations, and the fact that he had such formidable bloodlines meant that his ancestors had to have been extraordinary figures. Who could they be, and how come she had never heard of them? Madam Chu frowned deeply; she found it quite ridiculous that the swordsman had two formidable bloodlines.
Meanwhile, Ye Guan brandished his sword and charged forward. The spacetime around him trembled as he infused spacetime power into his sword for an all-out attack!
Ye Guan did not dare to underestimate Shen Wu, so he decided to give it his all.
Boom!
Countless sword lights exploded at once, enveloping the entire star field. Amidst the sea of swords, thousands of sword lights made out of Ye Guan's Invincible Sword Intent materialized before Shen Wu's divine statue.
Shen Wu's eyes narrowed at the sight.
Boom!
The divine statue shattered, and the shockwave from its destruction spread across the entire star field.
Shen Wu was blasted away as a result of the backlash, but he suffered more than that; his fleshly body had been destroyed, leaving only his soul!
Swoosh!
Shen Wu's face turned ashen. A sword had just appeared in front of him, and he wouldn't be able to withstand it, as he was in his weak, soul form.
Boom!
A mysterious wave of energy rushed in front of Shen Wu, intercepting the sword.
Rumble!
The spacetime in front of Shen Wu was torn open, and an old man walked out of the resulting spacetime rift.
Ye Guan frowned upon seeing the old man.
Zhen Tian's voice echoed in Ye Guan's mind. "Be careful. That's the former Clan Leader of the God Clan, Shen Yu. He was believed to have perished long ago, but clearly, he's still alive. You have to be careful… Back then, he has eighty percent divinity!"
Eighty percent divinity? Ye Guan's frown deepened as he could not feel the old man's aura at all. He could tell that this old man was very strong and was far more powerful than someone with seventy percent divinity.
Shen Yu stared at Ye Guan indifferently before turning to Shen Wu beside him. "Go back and heal."
Shen Wu bowed respectfully, casting a final look at Ye Guan before disappearing into the horizon.
Shen Yu turned toward Ye Guan and said, "You're the most exceptional talent I've seen since the First God's death."
Everyone fell silent, and they had to admit that Shen Yu was right. Ye Guan was extremely young with a low cultivation base compared to them, but he was actually strong enough to kill someone with seventy percent divinity. What was going to happen once he became a Divine Dao Realm? Everyone froze in fear; the thought of it alone sent shivers down their spine.
Ye Guan smiled and asked, "Are you going to fight me?"
Shen Yu nodded. "Even though it's a little unfair, given the circumstances, I can't afford to be considerate toward you."
With that, Shen Yu got ready to make a move.
Ye Guan hurriedly exclaimed, "Wait!"
"Hmm?" Shen Yu asked, "What is it?"
Ye Guan replied, "I've decided to call for backup."
Shen Yu nodded slightly and said, "That makes sense. We're also interested in meeting your backers."
Ye Guan closed his eyes and was about to call for help when the spacetime in front of him was torn open.
A spacetime rift manifested, and someone walked out of it immediately afterward.
