Originally, Jiang You, who was still laughing wildly and immersed in his own fantasies, suddenly froze in his smile!
His deep eyes caught sight of that cold glimmer flashing towards him, and a hint of fear unexpectedly flashed within them!
This cold light somehow gave him a feeling of danger!
In Jiang You’s hand, there suddenly appeared a peculiar, ominous sword overflowing with demonic qi!
Ye Chen fixed his gaze on that sword, his expression sinking!
This sword possesses an incredibly strong demonic qi!
Easily surpassing that of the Blood Demon Sword!
“Demon Soul Devouring Sword!”
A single slash unleashed, like countless demon souls shrieking in the sky; the Divine Mountain instantly turned into a human purgatory overrun by demons!
Heaven and earth trembled in response!
Atop the Divine Mountain, the massive divine pillar emitted resounding vibrations under the force of this strike!
The nomological power of martial arts within the Divine Kingdom poured out a destructive aura amidst the clash of both sides, leaving the disciples of the Divine Extreme Sect trembling in fear!
If this continues, it might provoke martial arts backlash!
If a martial artist’s immense power inadvertently harms the laws of martial arts, the world itself will retaliate against them!
This is precisely why some Upper Realm experts seldom descend here, and even if they do, they cannot exert their full strength.
In the next moment, the myriad demon souls turned into sinister sword qi and collided with the cold star Ye Chen had slashed forth!
A deafening explosion shattered the heavens and the earth!
The myriad sword qi of demon souls was wiped out entirely, but Ye Chen’s sword light also vanished into nothingness!
The aftershock of their clash directly obliterated a section of the void.
Jiang You’s expression drastically changed as he staggered back several steps, directly blasted beyond the mountain gate of the Divine Extreme Sect by Ye Chen’s strike!
His blood essence surged violently, and a trace of fresh blood escaped from the corner of his mouth!
He looked at Ye Chen in disbelief, clueless about what just happened!
He… was suppressed!? And even injured?!
What kind of bloodline does this brat possess!
For a fleeting moment just now, he sensed the terrifying suppressive force from deep within this bloodline.
It felt as though, in comparison to Ye Chen’s bloodline, the Heavenly Demon Clan’s bloodline was nothing short of beneath the heavens!
He looked at his hand holding the sword, trembling slightly, and his gaze toward Ye Chen entirely shifted!
Within that single strike, the power contained and the incomparably pure True Martial Intent left him utterly horrified!
But!
What unsettled him the most was how Ye Chen appeared to know the flaw in his sword technique all along!
At this moment, Ye Chen continued advancing step by step toward Jiang You, coldly smiling as he said, “Demon Soul Devouring Sword? Seems like you’re indeed one of the subordinates of the demon soul I devoured?”
He vividly remembered that the Demon Soul Devouring Sword was one of the sword techniques deployed by that demon soul in their confrontation!
“What!?” Jiang You froze entirely… Completely petrified!
Wasn’t his master’s demon soul destroyed?
It was devoured instead!? Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
No human could ever devour even a single wisp of such a terrifying Ancient Demon’s fragmentary soul!
For thousands of years, he had served that Ancient Demon; he knew better than anyone within the Divine Kingdom how terrifying the Ancient Demon truly was!
He understood that in all the heavens and myriad realms, no matter how powerful a human might be, they could, at best, obliterate a demon soul—but devour it? Impossible!
This could only mean…
Ye Chen isn’t human!
Absolutely not human!
“You’re not human!” Jiang You suddenly pointed at Ye Chen, nearly crazed, shouting furiously in terror as he lost his rationality entirely!
He turned sharply and began fleeing wildly out of the Divine Extreme Sect!
Even his soul trembled madly!
Why?
Because only a being far superior and more terrifying than the Ancient Demon could devour its demon soul!
And such an existence was not something he could ever contend with!
Ye Chen looked at Jiang You’s rapidly retreating figure in astonishment…
What just happened?
