Chapter 3973: Chapter 3973: The Seal on Xuan Han Yu, Broken (Fourth Update)
A Holy Ancestor endured Lin Jianqing’s sword and actually survived!!!
This must be enough to make history, right?
The two of them felt as if they had witnessed a legend firsthand!
But Lin Jianqing had an incredibly confused expression, as if his entire worldview had been completely overturned!
Only Qin Hongyue shouted, "Ye Chen!" and regardless of the blood all over her body, she rushed into Ye Chen’s arms.
She didn’t know how Ye Chen survived that sword, nor did she want to know; as long as Ye Chen was alive, that was enough for her!
But this pounce caused Ye Chen’s wounds to flare up, making him grimace in pain.
Qin Hongyue quickly let go, looking at Ye Chen with deep concern, "I... I’m sorry, Ye Chen, are you okay?"
Ye Chen forced a smile, "I’m fine."
At that moment, a "thud" was heard by everyone. The proud Law Enforcement Hall Master of the West Sea, a genius like Lin Jianqing, heavily kneeled before Ye Chen, bowed his head, and said, "I was ignorant, offended the Dark Son due to my prejudice, and my crime is unforgivable. I beg the Dark Son to grant me death!"
At this moment, Lin Jianqing’s face was ashen, with only the will to die in his eyes, the sharp sword-like aura completely gone...
He knew that Ye Chen being willing to grant death was already a great mercy.
But, the next moment, Ye Chen calmly said, "Ignorance is not a crime. This time, Red Moon and I could escape danger thanks to Master Lin’s help. Rise."
In fact, Ye Chen didn’t dislike Lin Jianqing. Although he was domineering, he had his principles, much better than those despicable scoundrels.
Even if Ye Chen were truly a member of the Chenyue Dark Sons, he wouldn’t let Lin Jianqing commit suicide as an apology.
Lin Jianqing was taken aback, his gaze towards Ye Chen showing a hint of gratitude, but being not a sentimental person, he nodded and said, "Thank you for your mercy, Dark Son!" and stood up.
Huang Qi and Tang You were dumbfounded by the dramatic turn of events, not understanding what they had just witnessed.
Only Qin Hongyue’s beautiful eyes flickered, seeming to realize something.
A moment later, Qin Hongyue said, "Since the misunderstanding is resolved, let’s continue towards the Red Sea."
Qin Hongyue looked at Lin Jianqing and said, "Master Lin, for your assistance, the Beihan Commerce will certainly reward you generously. After entering the Red Sea, I will arrange for you to return to the West Sea."
Lin Jianqing shook his head when he heard this, looking at Ye Chen, "May I follow the Dark Son temporarily until the mission is complete, as a small compensation for my previous disrespect?"
Ye Chen did not object, thinking that having a strong ally was not a bad thing in the uncertain journey ahead.
Soon, the two ships set sail again.
Ye Chen also returned to his room, but the moment he entered, his expression changed, and he suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Breathing heavily, his entire vitality seemed like a candle flickering in the wind, about to be extinguished. Ye Chen quickly swallowed several pills, and as the strong medicinal power spread through his body, his expression eased slightly.
Slowly getting up, he sat on the ship, with a flickering gaze, recalling the extreme danger he faced against Lin Jianqing’s sword, almost losing his life...
Even Xuan Han Yu let out a sigh at this point, "Kid, you have to admit, your luck is always pretty good. That woman from the Samsara Graveyard helped block half of the power for you, and the Reincarnation Tablet also protected you, allowing you to condense half of a Dao Seal at the last moment!"
Ye Chen, hearing this, also smiled, looking quite pleased!
Although this time was extremely dangerous, the gain was equally significant!
If not for this life-and-death crisis pushing his potential to the limit, achieving this Dao Seal with his current strength wouldn’t have been easy.
In the next moment, the Destruction Dao Rhythm surged out of his body. However, it wasn’t just the Destruction Dao Rhythm—a Qi of Heaven and Earth in his mind was also slowly rotating, merging with that Dao Rhythm!
Black light rapidly wove around him, quickly transforming into a complex rune exuding an unfathomably ancient aura!
This half-rune was the Destruction Dao Seal he condensed at the moment before the sword light devoured him!
Unfortunately, it was only half a seal...
Fortunately, Ye Chen’s vitality was terrifyingly resilient, allowing him to withstand his opponent’s strike with just this half Dao Seal!
Staring at the half Dao Seal before him, Ye Chen’s eyes grew brighter. This Dao Seal, typically possessed by late-stage Qiankun Realm beings, was indeed a formidable power. Even though Ye Chen only managed to form half, he could feel a power completely unrestrained by the world’s laws!
With this half Destruction Dao Rhythm, in some lower-leveled Freedom Heavens, he could even ignore the law enhancements of these heavens and inflict harm on enemies!
Possessing this Dao Seal, Ye Chen experienced qualitative changes both in attack and defense!
In other words, his strength had increased once again!
Even though he hadn’t mastered the Burning Heaven yet, he had barely gained a means to counteract the Freedom Heaven, a method not available in the past.
At this time, Xuan Han Yu’s voice rang out again, "Ye Chen, now that you possess this half Dao Seal, you have the chance to unlock the next seal on me."
A flash of joy crossed Ye Chen’s eyes; not only had he gained half a Dao Seal, but he could also use it to unlock the next seal on Xuan Han Yu?
Such enhancement to Xuan Han Yu would greatly boost his strength!
With the transaction with the Red Sea Royal Family imminent, and even with the assurance of the Beihan Commerce, an absolute guarantee of safety was needed. The stronger he was before the deal, the safer he would be!
Immediately, Ye Chen activated the room’s seal, set up a formation, and, in the next moment, a phantom appeared in front of him—a stunning woman, Xuan Han Yu.
Ye Chen stared at the massive dark chain before Xuan Han Yu’s slender chest, took a deep breath, and began rapidly refining the medicinal power in his body. His flesh and blood gradually filled out, and his wounds slowly healed. Then he closed his eyes, controlling his breath, as boundless spiritual energy surged into his body, replenishing the consumption caused by blocking Lin Jianqing’s strike just now.
Before long, Ye Chen opened his eyes again, his gaze shining brightly!
The Slaughter Sword reappeared in his hand, with Destruction Dao Rhythm instantly thickening. He slowly raised the Dragonslayer Sword in his hands, pouring spiritual energy into it; his surroundings swelled with demonic energy, dense with Evil Qi, and encircled by purple flames. In the next moment, he swung the sword towards the chain on Xuan Han Yu’s chest!
