Chapter 742 - Life on The Line (1/2)

The Arhat Fist Force blasted forward rapidly, with the strong force appearing to have been warped away moments after coming into contact with Hell’s Gate. It was as if half its power had been absorbed.

Whoosh!

The sea water beside the gate boiled instantly and a huge storm of spiritual energy emerged from it again. A roar was even produced as the sea became unstable and the waves became turbulent.

“DIE!”

The old man’s expression changed suddenly and his voice contained the peak of killing intent. Those silken threads suddenly thrust forward in a straight line, piercing toward Ye Lingchen like a sword.

Ye Lingchen leaned to the side and managed to avoid the danger at the last minute. However, one of the threads had struck him and injured his left arm. The wound felt extremely hot, almost like it was being roasted by fire.

Other than his arm, his calf had also suffered a bloody cut.

However, he ignored everything and once again unleashed another fist into Hell’s Gate.

Whirr!

The whirlpool at the gate trembled suddenly and grew at a pace that was rapid and noticeable to the naked eye. Traces of the whirlpool’s fluctuations become more and more obvious, and the spiritual energy spurted out like an angry dragon.

Boom!

There was a dull rumbling coming from the sea, followed by the water around Hell’s Gate rising up into the sky, forming a huge waterspout!

Splash, splash, splash!

The sea was already extremely unstable, with waves more than one meter high getting faster and more frequent.

Those two punches alone made the gate extremely unstable, and its expansion speed had reduced by a month!

If humans could only barely catch up with it after having three months to prepare, then it was practically impossible if there were only two months left. After all, once the gate was open, humans would then face the savage attacks of the Void Realm creatures.

There was no doubt that the old man’s initial plans had been utterly foiled.

“Damn you! Damn you!”

The old man roared, bent his fingers into claws, and grabbed Ye Lingchen’s neck with his iron-like claws.

Ye Lingchen smiled slightly and dived directly into the water like a swimming fish. He relied on the Water Spirit Constitution to enter the water like a fish and began wandering around the gate. For a moment, there was nothing the old man could do.

Just as the two of them were in a stalemate, the waves grew bigger and bigger, eventually exceeding ten meters. Wave after wave, Ye Lingchen and the old man were like ants struggling under a storm.

Tsunami!

A tsunami appeared!

The initial equilibrium was shattered after the gate’s abnormal expansion and the overflowing spiritual energy resulted in a tsunami. The might of heaven and earth made human strength look trivial and insignificant, even though the old man was a sovereign-state warrior.

“Old Tortoise, let’s go!”

Ye Lingchen let out a low cry and retreated quickly with Old Tortoise.

The turbulent environment proved beneficial to them, as the old man appeared slightly at a loss. He could only stand on the water’s surface from then onward. His affinity with water was bad, just as Ye Lingchen had expected, and his strength in the sea was greatly reduced.

“Die to me!” the old man bellowed and chased after him with reddened eyes.

The next moment however, a huge wave hit him head on, as though an unyielding force had given rise to a huge slap.
