Chapter 1199: A True Genius

Wherever the blood lotus passed, the ground collapsed, creating huge pits.
The sky above turned black, but was lit up by flashes of dazzling lightning.
This attack alone was enough to kill anyone below the sixth level of the Supreme Emperor realm from other sects, and it was one of the Blood Spirit Clan’s martial techniques, the Blood Lotus Flower!
It contained power that surpassed the level of the Kunlun Mountains’ martial techniques, and was several levels higher than the Ye family’s own martial techniques.
The blood lotus materialized and rushed toward Ye Chen. That being said, it was only partially materialized, as Ye Wushuang’s mastery of the technique was lacking.
Even so, it was the most powerful technique at his disposal!
“The Blood Spirit Clan’s martial technique?”
“It’s indeed a little special. However, it’s not enough!”
Ye Chen grabbed Ye Nantian’s soul. Two Buddhist runes circled his hands as Buddhist light purified Ye Nantian’s soul and turned it into a ball of light that flew toward the blood-red lotus.
Since Ye Wushuang wanted to save Ye Nantian, he would send Ye Nantian’s soul over to him!
Bang!
An explosive sound rang out as the ball of light exploded into fragments, followed by a soul-screeching cry.
Ye Nantian, the pride and hope of the Ye family, was dead!
His physical body had been crushed by Ye Chen, and his soul had been shattered by Ye Wushuang’s Blood Lotus Flower!
Whoosh!
The blood-red lotus continued flying forward. It was weakened, but still contained immense power. It seemed that Ye Wushuang was more powerful than Ye Nantian.
“Break!”
Ye Chen shouted softly. He drew the Immortal Slaying Sword and imbued it with the power of lightning as he struck the blood-red lotus. Unfortunately, the Immortal Slaying Sword was now a pseudo first-grade immortal artifact, having been broken once.
Clang!
The clear sound of metal colliding echoed in all directions, accompanied by the wail of an artifact spirit. The Immortal Slaying Sword was broken again!
Ye Chen’s entire body was surrounded by a scarlet-gold luster as his physical body erupted with power.
Bang!
The half-destroyed blood-colored lotus flower sent him flying a hundred meters, creating cracks all over his body.
This attack was very strong!
“Not bad!”
Ye Chen slowly stood up and took out some pills and demonic beast blood essence to consume. Soon, his physical body recovered a little.
He stared at Ye Wushuang. “Perhaps I can use you to polish my Dao. My Nirvana Dao needs some work!”
Ye Wushuang’s blood-colored martial techniques contained the power of Nirvana, but his comprehension and mastery of it was lacking. This was the perfect opportunity to fix that!
If he could expand the Nirvana Dao to dozens of meters in size, he would be able to reach the seventh level of the Daoyuan realm!
“Little b*stard!”
“You killed Nantian, so you have to die a painful death!”
Ye Wushuang charged forward and revealed his golden body, engaging in close-range physical combat withYe Chen.
His expression was sorrowful, and his strength gradually increased. As he surpassed his limits he said, “You’ve destroyed the hope of the Ye family!”
“I’m going to beat you to death today!”
“Enough with your yapping! Fight or get lost!” Ye Chen’s tongue was also quite sharp as he exchanged countless blows with Ye Wushuang.
Power of Nirvana!
Nirvana Dao!
The difficulty of cultivating this Dao was even greater than cultivating the Destruction Dao, however, every little improvement would increase his combat strength significantly.
The two of them were like ancient ferocious beasts as they fought in close combat. Golden light shone, and blood splattered everywhere.
Ye Wushuang’s sword was shattered by Ye Chen’s punch, and they ended up punching and kicking each other. However, every punch caused the ground to tremble, and every kick toppled mountains!
Fortunately, they were far away from the crowd. Otherwise, the shockwaves alone would have killed a large number of Ye family members.
Everyone was watching the fight with bated breath. Some of the neutral members of the Ye family got down to thinking.
A Daoyuan realm cultivator from the tenth generation of the fifth branch of the Ye family, who was in charge of managing some of the Ye Clan’s businesses in the Kunlun Mountains, sighed and said, “They said that Ye Nantian is the hope of the Ye family, but why does it feel more likely that Ye Chen is the real hope of the Ye family?”
“That’s true!”
“How old is Ye Chen? He can fight Elder Wushuang on even footing. I don’t think Ye Nantian can do that.”
“Ye Chen is in his twenties, while Elder Wushuang is more than six hundred years old. Despite that, I can’t tell the difference in strength between them,” another eighth-level origin king realm Ye family member said with some confusion.
“I think that Ye Chen is the hope of the Ye family!”
“I think so too!”
“I wonder why the family head and the elders want to execute Ye Chen…”
“Yes, he’s such a genius. What a pity!”
“Ye Chen is so young, and his future is limitless.” The middle-aged man laughed bitterly as he stared at the battlefield in the distance where Ye Chen and Ye Wushuang were fighting fiercely. He could not help but shake his head. “Wouldn’t it be great if we could get along?”
He was a businessman and a member of one of the four branches of the Ye family that did not hold power.
He usually did business in the Kunlun Mountains, so he naturally hoped for peace. Of course, his status in the family was not high.
The Ye family was a huge family with a large number of people, but not every family member was a cultivator. However, as they were part of the Kunlun Mountains, they knew a thing or two about the cultivation world, and thus knew that Ye Chen was qualified to be called a genius, and a peerless one to boot!
“Ye Chen is too strong!”
“He is much more talented than Ye Nantian!”
“Ye Nantian is almost two hundred years old and has reached the fifth or sixth level of the Supreme Emperor realm. However, he is still no match for Ye Chen, who is only a fraction of his age.”
