638 Ye Chen Vs. Xia Houzun Part Two (1/2)

”Ye Chen!”

Releasing out his soul power, Xia Houzun could sense that it was indeed Ye Chen who had been breaking through walls as well. After sensing his killing intent, Xia Houzun was even more angered.

There had been rumors about how Ye Chen was the most likely martial genius who could replace one of the top five young warriors. In other words, once he made it, then one of the top five young warriors would have to step down. It was an unofficial rule, but it was based on the fact that there had been a top young warrior in the middle of the Sky Martial Region as well as another four top regions, which perfectly made up five of them. This had been an unspoken rule throughout history.

In Xia Houzun's opinion, Ye Chen had no chance of moving up at all. At least before the top five young warriors reached forty years of age, there was no possibility of that happening whatsoever. And right now, Ye Chen daring to display this level of killing intent in front of him was an obvious disrespect toward him. It was something that he could not tolerate at all.

Boom!

The tiny rocks jumped in the air as the tough tunnel walls were torn apart. It looked like the massive mouth of a demon that was directly connected to hell.

The sword qi had been pouring out as a human figure had appeared in front of Murong Qingchen.

The second Ye Chen appeared, Murong Qingcheng's body softened and her black bat wings quickly shrank down and disappeared back into her body while she fell onto the ground.

Holding her up with his hands, Ye Chen said quietly, ”Have you been using your demon power essence?”

”Yeah…I was planning to use my Sky Demon Finger attack to wound him badly, but his Void Shattering Finger Attack was very fast. It managed to block in front of my attack, which canceled out half of the attacking power.”

The finger power shot out with her Sky Demon Finger was extremely destructive, a demon race martial art passed down through her bloodline. But, Xia Houzun's Void Shattering Finger contained the space profound, which when trained to the extreme, could allow the trainer to ignore physical distance, making it naturally just as fast as her Sky Demon Finger attack; it might even be slightly faster. If there were no delay due to the Void Shattering Finger, that finger attack could definitely worsen Xia Houzun's wounds by a couple of times.

Ye Chen nodded and looked at Xia Houzun coldly, ”Alright! Although it was earlier than I had planned, I do not care for it. Let's just battle here and now.”

”Battle? With me? You?”

Ye Chen was able to break through the walls that easily was indeed a shock to Xia Houzun, but his mind was so fixed on the idea that the former was nowhere near his level.

”What? Is it really that unbelievable? I can assure you that you will not be able to leave here safely today. There will be blood.” Ye Chen looked calm, but his voice could clearly send chills down anyone's spine.

”Stop messing around. This is literally the funniest joke I have ever heard.” Xia Houzun laughed hysterically, looking very arrogant and ignorant. He obviously did not care for Ye Chen at all.

Then, his tone changed drastically as he said creepily, ”Jokes aside, I am indeed angered by you. I will not kill you, but I will shatter every single bone of yours. I will show you how tough your bones really are, and test to see whether they are tough as your mouth right now.”

”You will see when you try. Obviously, that is under the condition that you have the power to get there.”

Ye Chen held his Thunder Disaster Sword and was ready to go.

”Cut the crap! Today, I will show you the gap between you and I.”

Shoo!

A beam of gold light flashed once as Xia Houzun shot out toward Ye Chen. Outside his body, strings of gold light spread out, leaving tiny cracks in the wall.

”The gap is not decided by you. Don't worry…I will show it to you.”

Leaning forward, Ye Chen's whole body shot closer to the ground as he held onto his sword with his right hand. A part of his sword was already in the air.

”Surreal Emperor Finger!”

The gap between the two were decreasing drastically. Xia Houzun's gold robes danced in the air as he pointed out a finger at Ye Chen's forehead. As that finger was thrown out, millions of emperor level warriors' shadows appeared behind him.

Chin!

Taking out his Thunder Disaster Sword, Ye Chen shook his right hand, and that electricity like sword body shook twice in the air. With that, a crossed sword light clashed with the incoming finger power.

Shoo!

That powerful finger was shattered under Ye Chen's precise movement. Of course, his sword light had been burnt out as well.

”Using power to shatter power? I see! But, I wonder what you are going to do now.”

His body shot out in a tilted manner as Xia Houzun flicked out all ten fingers from both of his hands, forming countless broken shadows. In the next second, beams of finger power had been shot out. That bright starlight spread out in the whole area, dyeing the whole tunnel with a bright color.

Ye Chen jumped backward, and before his feet landed onto the ground, five fingers of his left hand flicked out as well, forming countless shadows. The lotus heart sword qi welcomed the incoming finger power.

Pooh! Pooh!

The lotus sword qi shattered one after another. Xia Houzun's finger art indeed contained the powerful starlight profound, which was extremely fast and powerful. Meanwhile, the lotus heart sword qi was still not a profound sense martial art. And even with the enhancement from the sword intent, it was still nowhere near the power of Xia Houzun's finger attack.

However, one lotus sword qi not being as powerful as the falling star finger power was okay, because there was always the second beam, and the third beam. There would be enough to compete with them. Right then, Ye Chen's five fingers had disappeared completely while endless sword qi shot out, madly canceling out the falling star finger power.

”How can he shoot out this many within such a short period of time?” Xia Houzun could not help but change his expression. His finger art was already fast enough, but somehow, Ye Chen managed to shoot out even faster and way more numerous sword qi, which did not even seem to run out at all.

Indeed, Ye Chen's lotus sword qi did not need to regenerate at all since it was already stored inside his dantian, countless of them. That massive green lotus was like a sword qi manufacturer, tirelessly creating more and more sword qi.
