Primordial Star Scripture

Chapter 63: Chapter 59: Jiang Yao Arrives!

From Ye Chen's Sword of True Qi infused with Sword Intents pressing down on Shi Tian to fight, to Shi Tian's counterattack with his spear causing both sides to engage in a tense battle that unleashed violent storm-like True Qi, and then to Shi Tian leveraging his robust True Qi to launch a counteroffensive and suppress Ye Chen.

The battle between Ye Chen and Shi Tian underwent repeated changes.

Now, Ye Chen had unleashed his second major tactic beyond "Sword Intents" — "Gang Yuan True Qi," turning the tide of battle once again!

The countless droplets of silver sword rain formed from the Gang Yuan True Qi, after incinerating the oncoming spear shadow True Qi into nothingness, didn't stop there; they shot directly towards Shi Tian with explosive force.

This time, the silver sword rain was even faster and more terrifying than the previous Sword of True Qi.

It reached Shi Tian's face in an instant!

The thought of the silver sword rain capable of incinerating the Heaven and Earth True Qi was enough to astonish Shi Tian.

He found himself facing an onslaught like a deluge descending from the sky, with no possibility of escape!

During the final assault, Shi Tian thought he had secured certain victory, having transformed the Protective True Qi dragon around him into an offensive True Qi to strike at Ye Chen; now, under Ye Chen's counterattack, Shi Tian had no time to reactivate his Protective True Qi.

Shi Tian panicked; he desperately retreated at full speed, but how could his speed possibly match that of the silver sword rain!

The silver sword rain, an attack formed by infusing Gang Yuan True Qi with Storm Rain Sword Intent.

Not only was it tremendously powerful, but its speed was shockingly fast!

Just as Shi Tian had retreated only five or six meters, the silver sword rain had already covered more than ten meters, piercing Shi Tian's body directly.

Spurt! Spurt! Spurt! Spurt! Spurt!

In an instant, the sky full of silver sword rain bombarded through various parts of Shi Tian's body and then shot through it!

In a flash, Shi Tian's body was riddled with countless small holes, like a sieve, and streams of blood gushed out wildly from the holes!

Afterward, Shi Tian, who was screaming in agony, crashed to the ground with a "boom" and died a painful death!

From the look of it, there was no chance he could survive.

From Ye Chen's counterattack to piercing Shi Tian into a sieve, and finally dying painfully on the ground, it all happened within moments.

The disciples from various sects who thought Ye Chen would die at the hands of Shi Tian hadn't even had the chance to react before they saw Ye Chen turn defeat into victory and strike down Shi Tian.

The second disciple sent out by Zhou Yuntian was once again defeated by Ye Chen.

Even more miserably than the last one defeated!

Jin Xuanlie of the Ninth Level of True Qi fell with a single move, and Shi Tian of the Tenth Level of True Qi was thoroughly killed; all of this happened at the hands of Ye Chen, a Sixth Level of True Qi cultivator.

This completely overturned the understanding of all the disciples at the sect entrance plaza!

Not just them, even the Sect Leader and the seven elders of the Qingyun Sect were gaping at this moment.

They never expected that Ye Chen would have a second, even more potent tactic beyond his Sword Intents, capable of piercing through Shi Tian!

What shocked them even more was Ye Chen's composure and observational skills; Shi Tian's miserable defeat was due to Ye Chen deliberately showing weaknesses, luring Shi Tian into a reckless all-out attack, enabling Ye Chen's counter to pierce through his body.

This meant that from the start, Ye Chen had a complete plan to defeat Shi Tian!

Facing an opponent much stronger than himself, to remain so calm and composed, and even reveal flaws to trap the enemy - what level of cultivation genius, what level of combat monster was Ye Chen!

The Sect Leader and the seven elders of the Qingyun Sect, who had only slight regrets about expelling Ye Chen, were now filled with intense remorse.

Given Ye Chen's state of mind, there was a high possibility he would surpass them in the future if he continued to grow!

They themselves, when at the Sixth Level of True Qi, didn't have even a tenth of Ye Chen's current strength! Not to mention killing a practitioner of the Tenth Level of True Qi, they would probably lose even fighting against a practitioner of the Ninth Level!

"Killing a practitioner of the Tenth Level of True Qi may not even be Ye Chen's limit!"

The Sect Leader and the seven elders of the Qingyun Sect even began to entertain this thought.

Even now, they still didn't know the extent of Ye Chen's true strength, wondering if there was a third, or even a fourth tactic he had not yet revealed!

After two great battles, Ye Chen still had not revealed all his cards!

The Sect Leader and the seven elders of the Qingyun Sect were completely caught in regret, while Zhou Yuntian was now covered in goosebumps!

Having sent two strong disciples who were both defeated by Ye Chen, Ye Chen's performance had exceeded his expectations.

Even during the moment Ye Chen killed Shi Tian, Zhou Yuntian flashed with the thought that if he allowed Ye Chen to continue to grow unchecked, he might very well be the next one to be slain like Shi Tian!

Zhou Yuntian now felt an unparalleled sense of crisis; facing Ye Chen, who continually employed an endless array of fiendish tactics, he dared not let Ye Chen continue to grow.

"I can't miss this opportunity to kill him!"

"This Ye Chen is improving too quickly! Unbelievably fast!"

"Just over a month ago, when faced with an ambush by Hai'er and the others, he had to constantly dodge, and only managed to kill Hai'er when Hai'er was alone. Now, he dares to come directly to this entrance plaza, facing opponents of the Ninth and Tenth Levels of True Qi without any fear!"

"If he were to cultivate for a few more months, I'm afraid that even I wouldn't be able to ensure his death!"

At this instant, the desire to kill Ye Chen surged once again in Zhou Yuntian's heart. Before, he had been looking for an opportunity to make a move, but now, Zhou Yuntian was unwilling to wait any longer!

Kill!

Kill Ye Chen!

Now is the time!

While countless disciples from various sects were still immersed in shock over Shi Tian's defeat, and the Qingyun Sect's Sect Master and elders had their mouths gaping in regret, Zhou Yuntian, with a "boom," vanished from where he was, and in the next moment, appeared in front of Ye Chen.

He spread his large hand open, and with an outburst of infinite True Qi, three fist-sized balls of light, which seemed to burn the very air into nothingness, were hurled directly at Ye Chen with fierce intensity.

Zhou Yuntian had made his move again!

"So you couldn't hold back any longer?"

While everyone failed to notice Zhou Yuntian's movement, Ye Chen had already seen through every action Zhou Yuntian made.

From the very beginning, Ye Chen had never overlooked observing Zhou Yuntian, even while he was clashing with Jin Xuanlie and Shi Tian, he didn't show the slightest negligence.

Regarding the greatest enemy in the field, he naturally wouldn't let his guard down!

Now, as expected, the ever-vigilant Zhou Yuntian, harboring the intent to kill, finally made his move!

In the instant Zhou Yuntian launched his attack, Ye Chen showed no reservation, using the "Wind Movement Skills," a movement technique he had never used during his fights with Jin Xuanlie and Shi Tian. His speed soared to an unbelievable level, and within a blink, he dodged Zhou Yuntian's frontal attack.

At the same time, the Heaven and Earth True Qi and Gang Yuan True Qi within Ye Chen's body whirled together. Instantly, more than three hundred Wind Blade Swords erupted around him, with each sword's lethality even surpassing the silver sword rain he had used to defeat Shi Tian previously.

This was, in fact, a powerful technique Ye Chen had yet to use - the Wind Sword Intent!

Derived from high-grade mystical techniques and the Wind-Thunder Ambience refined by the master of the Thousand Lotus Cave Abode, Qian Jizi, Ye Chen's Wind Sword Intent was even more formidable than both the Storm Rain Sword Intent and the Purple Lightning Sword Intent!

From Zhou Yuntian's attack to Ye Chen's evasion, followed by the counterattack with the Wind Blade Swords, it all happened in the blink of an eye.

By the time everyone on the field noticed the change in the situation, Ye Chen's array of Wind Blade Swords had already furiously collided with the three balls of fire Zhou Yuntian had sent flying towards him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three balls of light, though only the size of a fist, burnt as fiercely as a scorching sun.

Even a tiny spark that shot out landed on the already dead Shi Tian's body, instantly incinerating him to ashes.

One could only imagine the astonishing power of these three balls of flame!

Zhou Yuntian clearly had no intention of leaving Ye Chen a way out. His goal was to completely finish him off!

If Ye Chen hadn't been constantly vigilant and reacted swiftly, he might have already been turned to ash!

The onslaught of Ye Chen's Wind Blade Swords, powerful enough to grind all the bluestone within a fifty-meter radius into powder, just barely managed to extinguish the three balls of fire.

Zhou Yuntian had not expected Ye Chen to be able to block his second assault. This time, he had not held back as he did with the previous attack. He had used his full strength, and still, Ye Chen had managed to evade it!

Zhou Yuntian stood in the void, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Ye Chen, as he instantly readied himself for another strike.

He had already perceived that, although Ye Chen had withstood his second move, he was at the end of his tether and would not be able to withstand another one!

Just as Zhou Yuntian stood in the void preparing to strike again, Ye Chen also flew straight up into the sky, his brow furrowing in intense concentration.

This was clearly the sign that he was about to use his ultimate technique, the Crimson Fire Flying Sword!

"Ye Chen!"

Liu Chan'er was the second to react to Zhou Yuntian's surprise attack. By the time she realized what was happening, Ye Chen had already exchanged a blow with Zhou Yuntian!

Now, they were directly facing each other.

Liu Chan'er screamed and flew towards Ye Chen; at the same time, two silver bracelets on her left wrist flew out, transforming into two large rings several meters across. One enveloped her, and the other was sent flying towards Ye Chen.

"Zhou Yuntian!"

"You're seeking death!"

As Liu Chan'er flew toward Ye Chen, and as Zhou Yuntian prepared to make another move, and just as Ye Chen was about to use the "Crimson Fire" Flying Sword.

In the sky above the sect's main gate plaza, accompanied by a furious shout, a snow-bright escape light streaked across the sky with inconceivable speed, and in a flash, appeared right before Ye Chen.

A girl with waterfall-like hair hanging to her waist and eyes as bright as stars, exuding exceptional beauty, revealed herself.

The girl stood directly in front of Ye Chen, facing the mid-stage Spirit Sea realm expert, Zhou Yuntian!

This girl was none other than Jiang Yao, who had traveled from the Taixuan Sect over a thousand miles to Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain in search of Ye Chen, and then rushed to the Qingyun Sect!

Zhou Yuntian could no longer contain his killing intent, and at that very moment, Jiang Yao finally arrived!
