Chapter 320 - The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron Unleashed! (2/2)
When Zong Yi heard Ye Chen’s words, he felt an urge to vomit blood.
“My Black Turtle Guard is an ancient, inherited technique. How can it be broken by your garbage sword technique? Even if you wield this sh*t Water Spirit Sword Technique fifty times, it’ll barely scratch the surface of the Black Turtle Guard!” Ye Chen was merciless. Under the attack of this Water Spirit Sword Technique, the Black Turtle Guard was only a tiny bit worn. Its formidability had far exceeded Ye Chen’s expectations.
This was the Celestial Martial Chi, a World Spirit. Ye Chen’s current Celestial Chi cultivation base was still top Heavenly Venerable Rank. If he had reached the Mystique Venerable Rank, even super fighters at Godly Venerable Rank would be unable to break it easily.
When they heard Ye Chen’s words, the masters of the various sects felt their faces heating up. If the Water Spirit Sword Technique was simply garbage, then what about the ultimate techniques of their sects?
“You!” Zong Yi was so angry his face looked like a beetroot. He wanted to charge at Ye Chen but was presently injured seriously whereas Ye Chen was completely unharmed. He had no way to break past Ye Chen’s secret technique and thus was unable to defeat Ye Chen!
“Whatever tricks you have, you’d better use them quickly. Is this all the House of Storms is good for? I think you’d better go home and drink a few years more of milk. With just this morsel of a cultivation base, you’re called the number one fighter of the Central Empire’s youth? The standards of the Central Empire have fallen, huh. And you want to marry Little Rou! It’s like a toad dreaming of eating swan meat!” Ye Chen used his contemptuous eyes to glare at Zong Yi.
When Zong Yi heard this, he trembled all over in rage. Throughout his life, was he ever ridiculed in this manner?
“I’m pissed off now, you must die!” Zong Yi roared to the sky and soared up. The spirit gate, life gate, and the rest of the eight significant acupuncture points of his body erupted, sending out spurts of blood.
The blood mist diffused all around and Zong Yi’s cloak of water turned blood-red. An overpowering aura surged to the heavens as if it wanted to break through the firmament.
That soaring, bloody light stupefied the experts of the various sects down below. What martial art technique was Zong Yi wielding that could be so fearsome? That soaring, crimson ray had outlined Zong Yi like he was a demonic god.
“Could this be some secret technique again?”
“What an overpowering energy!”
Everyone turned white with shock, never expecting the House of Storms to have such a potent secret technique.
When the three Mystique Venerable elders of the House of Storms noticed the bloody aura sweeping through the sky, they looked at each other in horror.
“Oh no, the young lord is using the Blood Feather Heavenly Sword!”
“This secret technique is metaphorically a double-edged sword. If anything happens to the young lord, we’ll have no way of explaining!” One of the Mystique Venerable elders looked at Ye Zong and shouted, “Ye Zong, quickly open up the barrier over the training grounds. Otherwise, if something happens to the young lord of our House of Storms in your Scarlet Flame Sect, we’ll make you pay with the Scarlet Flame Sect’s demise!”
When Ye Zong heard this, his heart throbbed and trembled. He commanded, “Mountain-shielding Formation, withdraw!”
The restrictive spell over the tournament grounds gradually diminished, almost fully dispelled.
When everyone saw the scene of the blood-red, towering light, they could not help but shudder.
Ye Rou, Ye Zhanlong, Ye Meng, Ye Xuan, Little Wingsy, the elders of the Stygian Sect and the Oracle Sect, and even Earl Yunyan became nervous, especially the elders of the two sects and Earl Yunyan. They had heard of stories regarding the Blood Feather Heavenly Sword and knew of its fearsomeness.
Was Zong Yi going to take down Ye Chen along with him?
Ye Chen looked up at Zong Yi who was high in the sky and frowned slightly. What technique was Zong Yi unleashing now? This surging bloody radiance made Ye Chen more serious.
Zong Yi’s eyes had turned blood-red, like a demon from hell. He raised the Storm Sword high over his head. The sword had turned into a dark red sword and crimson Celestial Chi swirled along with the Storm Sword. The sword energy shot into the sky, forming an enormous sword dozens of meters high.
“Blood Feather Heavenly Sword!” Zong Yi screamed in fury and slashed down upon Ye Chen. That massive blood sword practically split the sky into two.
An incomparably overwhelming pressure descended upon the world. Ye Chen suddenly found that he was frozen in place. The trajectory of the Blood Feather Heavenly Sword was swift. Even if he managed to struggle free, he would be unable to escape the attack range of the Blood Feather Heavenly Sword.
If Ye Chen was caught in this slash, he would surely die!
“All or nothing!” Ye Chen mobilized the Flying Dagger in his mind, wildly channeling Celestial Chi into the Celestial Martial Chi in his right palm. Immense energy extended outward and the turtle halo around Ye Chen swelled up several sizes.
The colossal Blood Feather Heavenly Sword slashed onto Ye Chen’s Black Turtle Guard. Rumble – it was like the world was breaking apart. The entire mountain which housed the Scarlet Flame Sect also quaked a few times in response.
Ye Chen could sense the attack of the Blood Feather Heavenly Sword which was like heavenly might. The turtle halo surrounding him started to shudder violently, gradually thinning. It was going to shatter soon.
“What an incredible sword!” Ye Chen felt that forceful energy hitting him in the chest. His Chi and blood boiled over and blood trickled from his mouth.
“I want you dead!” Zong Yi’s eyes were blood-red as he screamed maniacally, frantically pushing the Blood Feather Heavenly Sword to press downward.
The turtle halo around Ye Chen started to split open as cracks grew all over its surface like a cobweb. If the Black Turtle Guard had shattered and the gigantic blood sword cut down, Ye Chen would not even be left as a corpse!
“My boy, if this goes on you’ll be done for!” Within the Heavenly Astra Seal, Master Lion’s voice rang out faintly.
“Master Lion, now isn’t the time for cynical remarks. Help me figure out a plan,” Ye Chen said anxiously, forcefully holding up the Black Turtle Guard so that it would not break.
Ye Chen could feel that the Black Turtle Guard was increasingly drained. From its peak state, it was used up until half was left, then until less than one-tenth was left. It was about to fracture. At this point, it was not the right time to condense his Astral Body for battle either.
“There’s no other way. Pull out your Heaven Rumbling Cauldron!”
Heaven Rumbling Cauldron? Ye Chen frowned slightly. How should he use the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron amid a battle? Still, Ye Chen trusted what Master Lion had said. With his left hand, he took out the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron.
“Heaven Rumbling Cauldron, go!” Ye Chen grunted softly. The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron flew up into the air and revolved incessantly, growing in size. It was two, three meters tall and weighed tens of thousands of kilograms, barreling toward the massive Blood Feather Heavenly Sword in the sky.
With a thunderous explosion, the two items collided. The Heaven Rumbling Cauldron glowed brightly and burned all over with scorching, lively flames. The flames turned into a frightening ancient mystical beast that circled and fluttered around the Heaven Rumbling Cauldron. That rumbling droning sound was like a great bell, resounding across the land.
