Chapter 372: Battling Peerless Power Combatants!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Sensing the blade chi draw closer, the Purple Demon Armor on Ye Chen’s body glowed brightly. Ye Chen could feel that an overbearing chi flow had locked him into place, making him unable to move an inch. If not for the Purple Demon Armor’s protection, the mere energy pulses emitted by Hu Feng could have crushed Ye Chen into dust.

With a “swish” of Hu Feng’s blade, blade chi glided through the air. Every single slash seemed to contain a superior Absolute Martial Truth.

A Boundless Stage powerhouse was one whose understanding of Martial Truth had reached the pinnacle. The power they contained was beyond the level that ordinary people could comprehend.

So, this was the ability of a Boundless Stage combatant. Ye Chen could distinctly feel the gap like a chasm.

Regardless, Ye Chen would not give up just like that. With a sharp “whoosh”, the Ternary Sword Array flew toward Hu Feng.

“A little worm dares to compete against an eagle!” Hu Feng scoffed. With him in the center, Celestial Chi exploded outward. There was a slight “hum” and Ye Chen’s Ternary Sword Array had been swept aside. Meanwhile, Hu Feng’s blade chi was almost approaching Ye Chen’s body.

Ye Chen did not know whether the Purple Demon Armor could withstand the attack of a Boundless Stage combatant. Rationally speaking, Ye Chen’s Purple Demon Armor consisted of quite a few Tier Nine components, so it would be able to withstand this hit. Nevertheless, sensing the massive power radiating from Hu Feng’s body, Ye Chen was not willing to take any chances.

“Heaven Rumbling Cauldron, activate!” Ye Chen growled and flicked his right hand. Immediately, the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron flew into the sky and grew rapidly.

“Clang!”

Hu Feng’s blade chi landed on the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron. A loud “clang”, like a church bell, resounded. The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron swiftly grew larger and shined radiantly.

“What is that?” Hu Feng was shocked. His blade chi had landed on the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron. Even if it was a Tier Nine spirit artifact, it should have been broken. However, this cauldron blocked it sturdily. On the contrary, the artifact spirit inside his Tier Nine steel blade was trembling with fear.

The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron formed a huge vortex as if it was trying to suck in all of Hu Feng’s blade chi.

“Such a terrifying suction!” Hu Feng felt that the steel blade was about to fly out of his hand, so he quickly retreated backward and pulled back the Tier Nine steel blade.

“Whoosh”. The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron was a powerful weapon, so it rammed toward Hu Feng.

The Mystique and Godly Venerable Rank combatants stared dazedly at the scene.

“What is that cauldron? It’s so terrifying that even Grand Supreme Elder Hu Feng dare not compete against it?”

“I remember now, this is an ancient artifact, the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron. According to rumors, this Heaven Rumbling Cauldron recently appeared in the Scarlet Flame Sect!”

“It’s the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron!”

Everyone’s expression turned obsessive. If an unknown kid could fight against a Boundless Stage combatant with the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron, wouldn’t their abilities surge several folds if they managed to get their hands on this item?

Both Hu Feng and Wan Junxie looked at the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron below and involuntarily revealed expressions of greed.

This kid had so many treasures. Just taking out a random treasure was enough to drive countless people crazy. This was a moving motherlode of treasures!

In a distance, One Buck watched with his mouth agape. His heart sighed. “Boss is amazing, he can even stand up to a Peerless Power opponent!”

The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron swirled in the air, ramming back and forth, forcing Hu Feng to retreat.

“Secret technique, Void Snatch, snatch!” Hu Feng roared. He grabbed the air with both hands and a strange power suddenly pulled on the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron.

Ye Chen’s face changed slightly. This Hu Feng possessed such a crafty secret technique. Ye Chen could sense that an overwhelming force was tugging at the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron. Moreover, the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron seemed to almost lose control after being pulled by this force.

It was not that the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron was not powerful enough. It was because Ye Chen’s cultivation level was too low, hence he could not wield the full abilities of the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron.

Ye Chen raised his head to look at the other Boundless Stage combatant, Wan Junxie. He did not know when that fellow was going to attack. With a furious roar, Ye Chen unleashed his Astral Body energy to guide the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron back.

“Come back at once!”

The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron swayed left and right in the air. The guiding force of Ye Chen’s Astral Body was not at all inferior to Hu Feng’s Void Snatch technique.

Hu Feng did not expect that Ye Chen’s connection with the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron was so strong. Even Void Snatch could not get him the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron.

“Beat him up while I get this Heaven Rumbling Cauldron!” Hu Feng yelled at his subordinates. He then pulled the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron with all his might.

Other than the two Godly Venerable Rank combatants who were confronting Zhu Gonggong, the remaining five Godly Venerable Rank combatants cracked their fists and rushed toward Ye Chen.

Seeing the five Godly Venerable Rank combatants rushing toward Ye Chen, One Buck howled loudly and shot forward like a cannonball. He leaped straight at the five Godly Venerable Rank combatants with his fist stretched out. One of the Godly Venerable Rank combatants was struck down.

Not far away, there was a loud chirp. After the Golden Sun Condor swallowed a Chi-shaping Spirit Pill, its cultivation underwent a major breakthrough. Under the pressure of this crisis, it managed to reach beginner Daemon King Rank. The Golden Sun Condor rammed into another Godly Venerable Rank combatant.

“Bang, bang, bang.” One Buck’s strength was limitless. He faced off against four Godly Venerable Rank combatants by himself. A massive scuffle erupted mid-air.

The sky was darkening. From time to time, Ye Chen’s body was bombarded with pulses of attacks. Thanks to the Purple Demon Armor, the attacks from the Godly Venerable Rank combatants were not enough to penetrate Ye Chen’s defenses.

“Come now!” Hu Feng roared in anger and pulled the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron towards himself.

Seeing that Hu Feng was about to get the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron in his hand, Ye Chen’s eyes flashed bright purple. He shouted, “Flames, arise!”

Under Ye Chen’s command, black flames began to burn around the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron. These were damaging soul fire!

Hu Feng reached out his right hand to grab the edge of the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron. He was caught off-guard when the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron suddenly burst up into flames and burned his hand.

“Ouch!” Hu Feng screamed in pain and quickly pulled his hand back. He retreated backward hastily, cradling his right hand. The soul fire had burned his right hand completely black.

“Didn’t you want my Heaven Rumbling Cauldron? Take it!” Ye Chen glowered. The black flames-covered Heaven Rumbling Cauldron soared in Hu Feng’s direction.

Wan Junxie watched the scene unfold with a frown. This kid was certainly extraordinary. He had various techniques and treasures which were unpredictable. Initially, Wan Junxie thought that Hu Feng could handle Ye Chen by himself but now, Hu Feng was being humiliated by Ye Chen. Nevertheless, it did not matter how many life-preserving tactics Ye Chen had. That kid would not escape alive today!

“Secret technique, Frightening Demon Claw!” Wan Junxie snarled. A profound burst of Celestial Chi gushed out of his body and coalesced into a giant palm, which headed straight for Ye Chen.

Ye Chen felt a terrible force sweeping toward him. He looked up and saw a giant palm coming down upon him, almost completely covering the sky.

“Not good. Secret technique, Thunder D…” Before Ye Chen could use the Thunder Dash technique, the giant palm seemed to have cut through space and appeared beside him. Instantly, it gripped his body in a deathly grasp.

Ye Chen’s entire body was trapped inside the giant palm, only half his head was peeking out.

“You even know this high-level secret technique, I might’ve underestimated you. However, your cultivation level is too low. You’re far below my level. Even if you wear the Purple Demon Armor, killing you is equivalent to crushing an ant!” Wan Junxie revealed an evil snigger.

Ye Chen felt that the giant palm which Wan Junxie coalesced with Celestial Chi grip him tighter and tighter. Despite the barrier posed by the Purple Demon Armor, Ye Chen could already feel a trace of tightness in his breath. “Hum, hum, hum”, the Purple Demon Armor’s spells activated one after another to resist the pressure exerted by the giant palm.

Ye Chen did not know when the Purple Demon Armor would reach its limit. Once the Purple Demon Armor broke under the pressure of this giant palm, Ye Chen would be flattened into mush.

Both of these opponents were Boundless Stage combatants. If not for the Purple Demon Armor, Ye Chen would not be able to resist such a brutal attack.

“Little kid, your Purple Demon Armor is merely a Tier Eight item. It cannot withstand my Frightening Demon Claw. If you take off the Purple Demon Armor and beg for mercy, I may spare your life, to not damage this precious Purple Demon Armor!” Wan Junxie smirked.

Was Ye Chen so feeble before a Peerless Power opponent? Ye Chen’s heart was filled with deep-seated frustration. The reason he had continued pursuing the path of a combatant was so that one day, he could control his destiny.

Was Ye Chen going to die in vain right here? ‘No, I cannot die here. My life doesn’t belong to fate but myself!’

“You want to break my Purple Demon Armor? Dream on!” Ye Chen snarled. Celestial Chi gushed out from his entire body and rose into the air. Clumps of Astral Body energy formed a gigantic gold-armored soldier in the air. The gold-armored soldier wielded his Fangtian halbert and slashed it at Wan Junxie.

The gold-armored soldier was more than ten meters tall and held a Fangtian halbert in his hand, resembling an ancient demon.

“What is this?” Wan Junxie was startled and took a few steps back. His left hand unleashed an attack that exploded on the body of the gold-armored soldier with a “bang.”

Ye Chen felt his Astral Body quiver. However, the moment Wan Junxie attacked the gold-armored soldier, the deathly grip of the Frightening Demon Claw had loosened slightly. Ye Chen growled under his breath and there was a flash from Emperor Ming’s belt. A bird trill filled the air. Above Ye Chen’s head, a huge Immortal Dark Phoenix appeared and flew toward Wan Junxie.

Wan Junxie’s expression shifted. He was very knowledgeable but he had never seen someone who could form so many astral projections.

Not too far away, the Godly Venerable Rank combatants were looking on in apprehension. Who was this kid? He could wield so many different tactics. Both the majestic gold-armored soldier and the black flame-covered Immortal Dark Phoenix shocked their hearts to the core. If they were the ones faced against Ye Chen, they would have fled with their tails between their legs at the sight of the gold-armored soldier and the Immortal Dark Phoenix.

One Buck was currently surrounded by four Godly Venerable Rank combatants. He had been hit at least a few hundred times. Despite his tough exterior, he was at the brink of vomiting blood. When he saw Ye Chen being grabbed by Wan Junxie, his heart was filled with anxiety but now, seeing the gold-armored soldier and the Immortal Dark Phoenix appear, he was stupefied.

Wan Junxie’s eyes glinted steely. He could tell with a glance that the gold-armored soldier and the Immortal Black Phoenix were merely beginner Daemon King Ranks. The reason he was stunned earlier was only due to their extraordinary appearances.

“Pretty but useless!” Wan Junxie slapped the air twice. “Slap, slap”, the forces landed on the gold-armored soldier and the Immortal Dark Phoenix. Surprisingly, despite the battered looks of the gold-armored soldier and the Immortal Dark Phoenix, neither of them dissipated. “These things are weird. Although they are only beginner Daemon King Rank, they didn’t dissipate after being hit!”
