606 Gold Pattern, A Shocking News (2/2)
”The top five young warriors had made a pact together with each other. This is massive! Normally, if they battle with each other, they would not make it a big deal and do it secretly. Once the battle is settled, a result would have to come out of that, so it is going to be rather brutal. Within the last five years, only Sword Master and Xiao Chuhe had battled once. At that time, the sword master was slightly more powerful, so he wounded Xiao Chuhe with one sword. But, according to the rumors, Xiao Chuhe has grown to a mysterious level within these five years. Therefore, he might not be weaker than the sword master anymore. Xiao Houzun and Bai Wuxue had never exposed their most powerful skills yet, so I cannot believe that they are going to call for a battle.”
Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng heard these people and could not help but get intrigued by what they were talking about.
”September 18th…it is still one and half month away.” Murong Qingcheng said.
Ye Chen said, ”I had seen Bai Wuxue once…He is extremely powerful, and his aura was everywhere, more powerful than even Lin Tianmu's Cloud Crane Flow. The top five young warriors should all be at the peak of their Sea of Souls Realm. If they continue their growth, they would almost reach the Life and Death Realm.”
”I wonder if those old generation of master level warriors can still compete with these five?” She said.
Ye Chen shook his head, ”Being able to win against these five would be extremely hard. But of course, it would not be impossible. The leader of the Yellow Dragon Palace Zhang Zhengguang seemed to have the power. The other four palaces, the black dragon, blue dragon, white dragon, and red dragon, might also have leaders with similar power. They might even reach beyond the top five. Then there are also the top three blade master artists, as Xiao Chuhe had only won against one of them after all.”
”Sounds right!” Murong Qingcheng nodded, ”Right now, there is a rumor in Sky Martial Region that you are the number one warrior right below the top five young warriors Even Du Gujue and Dantai Mingyue have been surpassed by you.”
Ye Chen chuckled, ”This should not be counted. You also know that I had made quite some big breakthroughs a couple of months ago. But right now, I have slowed down. Judging by this speed, the others must have made great breakthroughs, so just winning at one moment cannot prove anything.”
As the two talked, the restaurant got louder and louder.
”Hey, you guys think who is more powerful? Xia Houzun or Bai Wuxue?”
”I don't know… Xia Houzun and Bai Wuxue had their own great moments. Xia Houzun is the top master level warrior when it comes to finger arts, while Bai Wuxue is the only Sea of Souls Realm warrior who had made it out of the ghost region in the past twenty years. I really wonder who is more powerful.”
”Although that is right, I still think Xia Houzun is more powerful. You have not seen his finger art…It is extremely powerful! I heard that it is some kind of Void Shattering Finger, and contains the space profound!”
”The space profound!”
Gasping sounds could be heard everywhere, while Ye Chen's pupils shrank as well.
”Ye Chen, what happened?” Murong Qingcheng asked.
He forced a smile and said, ”You should also know it that I have a finger art, and it also contains the profound of space, called the Void Shattering Finger. If I have guessed it right, then both Xia Houzun's and mine should come from the same source, which means that they are two movements within the Void Shattering Finger Art.”
”Two movements? Does it mean that besides you two, there might be others out there?”
Ye Chen said, ”I do not know how many movements he has, but I think I will run into him at some point in the future. I just do not know how it will go down yet.”
The Void Shattering Finger and that white key he found from the Goat Head Mountain carried a great treasure. So far, Ye Chen had no idea what it meant yet, but he vaguely could tell that it would be a tomb where an emperor warrior lay. But of course, it was just an understanding based on the literal translation; as for what it actually meant, it was impossible to tell so far with all the limited clues.
”Then you should reveal your Void Shattering Finger lesser in the future.” Murong Qingcheng reminded.
Ye Chen said, ”I will. This time, the battle between Xia Houzun and Bai Wuxue would be a great chance for me to watch. Perhaps my Void Shattering Finger would breakthrough to the profound sense level as well.”
Needless to say, Xia Houzun's achievement in Void Shattering Finger would be higher than Ye Chen's, since he was ten years older than the latter, and it would be impossible to make zero breakthroughs during that time. Otherwise, he would not have been ranked among the top five young warriors. While Xia Houzun and Bai Wuxue battled, he would definitely use his Void Shattering Finger. At that time, Ye Chen would watch his martial art while trying to understand his own space profound.
”Haha, it is less than one and half month until 18th of September. With my speed, I will be able to make it to the Nine Dragon Mountain right on time. After drinking this while, I will start my journey immediately.”
”Right! It would be such a waste if we do not go there and watch this kind of a battle. Plus, the top young warriors have booked battles with each other, so everyone powerful in this world would join in to watch as well.”
”Not just the young warriors, the older master level warriors could come as well. They would want to see the top young warriors for sure, to see how exactly powerful they had gotten.”
Xia Houzun and Bai Wuxue's battle was just too intriguing, and the atmosphere in the restaurant was very intense; it could not quiet down for a long time.
”Let's go!”
Putting down some gold, Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng walked out.
Amongst all of the people drinking, someone glanced at Ye Chen and looked at the man sitting right next to him while saying, ”Why do I think he looks like Ye Chen who had beaten Lin Tian?”
”Ye Chen? Let me see.” The person looked over and frowned, then looked at Murong Qingcheng who was standing right next to him, ”It is Ye Chen. Ever since the incident in the West Ling City, there is always a young woman in purple dress with light veil right next to him.”
”Ye Chen!”
The others' attention had been attracted over by their conversation. Unfortunately, by the time everyone realized, Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng had already left.
There was a rumor inside the Sky Martial Region that Ye Chen was the number one warrior right below the top young five warriors. And that news had already spread out to the Mysterious Ming City.
