Chapter 1296: Scheming
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the past, Ye Chen had needed the help of immortal artifacts to unleash this attack. However, he could simply use his hands now.
He did not like Xue Bing, who was covered in a bloody aura and had most certainly killed countless innocent people. Killing him was equivalent to enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens!
Xue Bing sensed the changes in his surroundings and immediately became wary. He realized that he had underestimated Ye Chen!
How could he still have such strength?
Without further thought, he hurriedly activated the two immortal weapons.
The Blood Serpent Sword turned into a venomous Blood Snake Demon, and its eight-foot-long body charged at Ye Chen.
...The Spatial Blade transformed into a dozen or so space blades that pierced through space and arrived in front of Ye Chen instantly, trying to slice him to pieces.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The fifteen space blades criss-crossed and sliced Ye Chen’s body, but his body was covered by a metallic sheen, and the space blades bounced off harmlessly.
Soon, the blades’ spatial power was unleashed, but it was still not enough to break his defenses.
Ye Chen had fought against Venerable Immortal Ling Yun, who was truly proficient in spatial laws. Xue Bing wielded a weapon that merely contained a trace of spatial laws. The two were not even comparable at all, and thus the weapon could not hurt him at all.
He was a seventh-level Overlord Body realm cultivator, and even a seventh-grade immortal artifact would struggle to wound his body.
Bang! Bang!
A series of explosions sounded.
Everyone looked over and saw that the Blood Snake Demon had exploded after making contact with the Solar Lunar Slash, breaking apart into countless fragments that flew everywhere.
Then, the Solar Lunar Slash slammed into Xue Bing’s body, making quick work of his golden body and destroying his soul in an instant. A fourth-level Semi Divine realm expert was dead!
The two disciples who attacked were from the Wild Blade Sect and the Blood Heaven Sect, whose Grand Elders thought that they could cripple Ye Chen or even kill him!
In the end, one disciple was crippled while the other was killed!
This scene shocked the people around them. When they looked at Ye Chen again, their gazes were completely different. It was as if this Ye Chen before them was still the invincible Ye Chen from that day, the young genius who had single-handedly subdued the eight sects!
“Ye Chen! How dare you kill my disciple!”
“You really think I don’t dare to kill you?” The Grand Elder of Blood Heaven Sect was furious.
“Oh? You want to kill me? In the past, I gave you all a chance to stand on the right side, but now it seems that you didn’t cherish it at all.”
Ye Chen summoned the ninth-grade Soul-Destroying Demon God Spear and pointed it at the Blood Heaven Sect’s Grand Elder. He was not afraid at all.
At the same time, a blood-red sword appeared. It was the fourth-grade Divine King-grade weapon, the God-Slaying Sword!
Even though he was injured, he was not someone that others could look down on!
If need be, he would destroy the Blood Heaven Sect today, even if it resulted in him sustaining serious injuries.
“Calm down!”
The eyes of the Grand Elder of the Wild Blade Sect flickered. Then, he pulled the Grand Elder of the Blood Heaven Sect away and sent the latter a voice transmission, “Have you forgotten? The Blood Spirit Clan will kill him in a year. There’s no way he will be able to grow strong enough to defeat them.”
“However, if we kill him today, his woman will have an excuse to attack us and protect the Kunlun Mountains at the same time!”
“She is the disciple of Venerable Immortal Ling Yun. She might not be strong enough to deal with us herself, and nor will Venerable Immortal Ling Yun lower herself to the point that she will deal with us personally, but have you forgotten about Venerable Immortal Ling Yun’s other disciples?”
“They are Divine King realm experts among them, and possibly even Primordial Chaos and Dao Integration realm experts as well. If those disciples come after us because Ye Chen died at our hands, we will be doomed!”
Ye Chen could be crippled, but not killed. Otherwise, a calamity would befall Spirit City that none of them could handle.
“If someone is to kill Ye Chen, it has to be someone from the Blood Spirit Clan. At the very least, that will make it a matter of the Lingwu Continent. Ye Chen must not die in Spirit City. Otherwise, we will suffer Venerable Immortal Ling Yun’s wrath.”
“Then what do we do? Do we stop fighting?” The expression of the Grand Elder of the Blood Heaven Sect was unpleasant. His disciple had been killed, but he could not kill Ye Chen.
“Fight! We must fight!” The Grand Elder of the Wild Blade Sect’s gaze was solemn. His gaze fell on the two young masters of the Li and Wang families. He stroked his beard and smiled.
He knew that they might be no match for Ye Chen, but they could definitely weaken him.
If this continued, and they kept sending their disciples to fight Ye Chen, then they would definitely be able to wear him down and eventually cripple him.
This way, they would not kill Ye Chen and would not incur the wrath of Venerable Immortal Ling Yun. Furthermore, by crippling Ye Chen, they could curry favor with the Blood Sword Sect…
It was akin to killing two birds with one stone!
At the same time, it would also purge the humiliation they felt from Ye Chen’s actions the other day.
“Family Head Li!”
“Family Head Wang!”
“I have a plan. Would you be willing to listen to it?”
“You two want to enter the Lingwu Continent too, right?” The Grand Elder of the Wild Blade Sect pulled the two family heads over and said seriously. “However, there aren’t many Spatial Teleportation Formations, so you can’t teleport people to the Lingwu Continent on a large scale.”
Spirit City was the guardian of the Spatial Teleportation Formations, but these formations had limitations, and could only teleport a few people at a time. Furthermore, each usage of the formation had a ten-year cooldown.
How many years would it take for the eight sects and five families to teleport their members to the Lingwu Continent?
It would take forever!
Unless they had several Primordial Chaos realm or Dao Integration realm experts who could tear through space and form spatial passageways, they would not be able to teleport people fast enough. However, none of them could advance to the Divine King realm without a Divine King-grade artifact.
This was their dilemma!
