Chapter 1608: Chapter 1598: Old Geezer, Take It Back!
The situation in the Yinming Sect’s plaza changed instantly.
Ye Chenfeng’s movements were incredibly fast, leaving no one present with a chance to stop him.
Supreme Elder Chen Hejiang of the Hall of Sea Gods, he watched from afar as his grandson’s head lay quietly on the ground, his eyes widened immensely.
The fury in Chen Hejiang’s heart erupted like a volcano. He had only one grandson under his care, Chen Nan, whom he pampered endlessly. Now that his grandson was dead, how could Chen Hejiang accept this?
And Song Longtian’s anger at this moment was no less than Chen Hejiang’s. Jiang Motian, whom he considered a future right-hand man, was dead. His half-sibling Song Chunmei was also dead, and now even his son Song Peng had died at the hands of Ye Chenfeng.
Song Longtian wished to skin Ye Chenfeng, extract his tendons, eat his flesh, and drink his blood.
However, Chen Hejiang and Song Longtian hardly thought it through. If they hadn’t been so aggressive, would Chen Nan and Song Peng have died? If they hadn’t prevented Ye Chenfeng from taking Lin Xinyi away, would it have ended up like this?
Chen Hejiang’s actions were a step faster than Song Longtian’s. His chest instantly filled with fury to the point where he no longer cared about the secrets surrounding Ye Chenfeng. He only wanted to kill Ye Chenfeng to avenge his grandson.
As a Supreme Elder of the Hall of Sea Gods, Chen Hejiang cultivated Water Art and Water Combat Techniques, and he was known as the Sea Dragon King in the Earth Profound Realm.
The momentum of the Middle Stage of the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Nirvana Realm soared abruptly, anger causing the muscles on Chen Hejiang’s face to twitch slightly. His arms swung as he quickly gathered water elements from the air.
In just the blink of an eye.
A giant serpent, about fifty meters in length and as wide as a large water barrel, materialized before Chen Hejiang.
The giant serpent contained a tremendously terrifying power.
Chen Hejiang moved his hands: “Giant Serpent Tail Whip!”
This serpent, formed by water elements, swept towards Ye Chenfeng. At a distance of twenty meters from him, the serpent’s tail lashed out at Ye Chenfeng.
Everywhere the serpent’s tail struck, the ground peeled back, and the surface cracked.
In this move, Chen Hejiang showed no mercy.
However, as someone who cultivates Water Art and Combat Techniques, his full power could only be unleashed when near water.
Yet, even without a water source, this move, Giant Serpent Tail Whip, was more than enough to shatter a strong cultivator at the Initial Stage of the Second Heavenly Layer of the Nirvana Realm.
The giant serpent’s tail lashed towards Ye Chenfeng, who could only hear the fierce, piercing wind howling in his ears, his tattered clothes flapping constantly.
Chen Hejiang shouted angrily, “Die! You little bastard!”
Song Longtian sneered coldly, “You little bastard, count yourself lucky to die so easily.”
Wang Zhenshan, the Sect Master of the Refining Sect, frowned. He originally intended to torment Ye Chenfeng a bit, but now it seemed impossible. In his eyes, for Ye Chenfeng to withstand this move from Chen Hejiang was pure nonsense.
Du Beinian, the patriarch of the Spiritual Medicine Valley, shook his head helplessly. He had hoped to obtain the formula for the heaven-defying elixir pills on Ye Chenfeng, but now it was all too late.
When Ye Chenfeng had demonstrated the Immortal Golden Body outside Medicine King City, Du Beinian had not arrived, so he had not seen the display of the Immortal Golden Body before.
Standing beside Du Beinian was Nan Haosheng, the Sect Master of Spiritual Medicine Valley, who was completely dumbfounded. His expression changed constantly, sometimes terrified, sometimes furious. Only now did he realize why Ye Chenfeng’s voice sounded familiar. It turned out Ye Chenfeng was that little bastard outside Medicine King City, the one who had severely damaged the Spiritual Medicine Valley!
Li Bei’ao, the Sect Master of the Yinming Sect, looked as if he had gone mad. Today was supposed to be a day of great joy for the Yinming Sect.
Yet, the Saint Heir of Yinming Sect was dead, and all five Great Elders of the Yinming Sect were dead as well. To Sect Master Li Bei’ao, this was like being struck by a bolt from the blue.
Lin Xinyi, whose acupoints were sealed, had no time to rejoice over Ye Chenfeng killing Chen Nan and the others. She witnessed this inevitable death scene, unwillingly furrowing her brows, secretly thinking, “Chenfeng, Xin Yi will always be with you, even if it means going to hell, Xin Yi will stay by your side.”
As for Zeng Guangyuan and the others, realists like Chihuo Zhenren and Chiyan Zhenren also snapped out of their shock. Chihuo Zhenren said, “This boy is a genius indeed. What technique did he just use? But today is destined to be his final resting place.”
Lying on the ground, Zeng Guangyuan, Qian Rong’an, and others showed unwillingness on their faces. They knew that if Ye Chenfeng continued to grow, he could potentially reach the pinnacle of the Earth Profound Realm. But would all this really end today?
Sect Masters and disciples from various sects around the plaza whispered amongst themselves.
“Ah, I admire this young man, I truly admire his courage. What a pity! Such a pity!”
“How dare you say such things here? This little bastard is the enemy of the Hall of Sea Gods and the Refining Sect. Do you all not want to live?”
“Can’t we even have the right to speak? We’ve lived our whole lives, and we can’t live too cowardly. This young brother dared to come to Yinming Sect to save people, and I admire him. As for the animosity between the Hall of Sea Gods and the Refining Sect with him, can you really say it’s this young brother’s fault? If they hadn’t provoked this young brother, wouldn’t that mean he’s just stupid enough to seek trouble?”
…
Among the people from various sects surrounding them, some supported Ye Chenfeng, while others chose to become lapdogs for sects like the Refining Sect.
While everyone harbored different thoughts.
And everyone believed that Ye Chenfeng was doomed to die.
The tail of the giant serpent drew closer and closer to Ye Chenfeng.
It seemed like Ye Chenfeng was about to be swept into mincemeat by the serpent’s tail.
Yet, holding the Meteoric Flame Sword, Ye Chenfeng remained unafraid, for the Water Spirit Pearl within his body was reacting, and this Water Spirit Pearl was a Middle Grade treasure!
In the Earth Profound Realm, the Middle Grade treasure was undoubtedly considered a treasure, and sects possessing such treasures were few and far between in the entire Earth Profound Realm.
Any sects with treasures would generally treat them as their sect’s most prized possessions, rarely using them, only resorting to them in times of crisis.
And Ye Chenfeng’s Water Spirit Pearl, while it might not have any offensive power ordinarily, would manifest its power upon encountering water.
According to what Old Bai and Old Hei had just said, with the protection of the Water Spirit Pearl, Ye Chenfeng could completely withstand this attack.
After all, the Giant Serpent Tail Whip relied on gathering water elements from the air to be unleashed.
The blue Water Spirit Pearl instantly flew out from Ye Chenfeng’s body, hovering steadily above his head.
Once the Middle Grade treasure, the Water Spirit Pearl, emerged.
A dense concentration of water elements immediately enveloped Ye Chenfeng.
At the instant the Water Spirit Pearl appeared.
The notable figures seated at the front instantly changed their expressions. Wang Zhenshan, the Sect Master of the Refining Sect and an artifact refiner, immediately recognized the grade of the Water Spirit Pearl and exclaimed in shock, “M-Middle Grade treasure?”
As soon as Wang Zhenshan revealed the grade of the Water Spirit Pearl.
A formidable suction force emanated from within the pearl, and the entire serpent tail that was about to strike Ye Chenfeng.
The entire giant serpent was instantly swallowed by the Water Spirit Pearl.
After the Water Spirit Pearl swallowed the Giant Serpent Tail Whip, it unleashed the attack once more.
It was akin to using the opponent’s own attack against them.
This time, the Giant Serpent Tail Whip released from the Water Spirit Pearl swept towards Chen Hejiang.
Ye Chenfeng shouted, “Old fool, take it back!”
Seeing this, Chen Hejiang’s complexion changed slightly. He had no time to think as he leaped, pushing the Spiritual Qi River in his meridians to the extreme, trying to resist the Giant Serpent Tail Whip with his hands.
With a “bang!”
Because Chen Hejiang was too hasty in his defense, he couldn’t exert his full defensive power.
As a result, Chen Hejiang was directly swept away, crashing heavily into a stele on the square,
His body embedded in the thick stone stele, and a rush of blood surged within him, with his hands that had attempted to block already covered in blood, and blood also trickled from the corner of his mouth.
His face flushed a deep red, but whether it was due to his extreme anger or because he was injured was unclear.
At the moment Chen Hejiang was swept away.
This time, the air within the entire square of the Yinming Sect seemed to completely freeze.
You must know that Chen Hejiang was actually a formidable expert of the Nirvana Realm, Middle Stage of the Fourth Heavenly Layer!
