Chapter 759: Chapter 0677: Heavy Slaughter
A fist struck out plainly, without any flourish, directly hitting the center of his protective spiritual energy barrier.
Fang Li’s pupils widened; he could break the spiritual energy barrier formed by Duan Chuan’s power, but it only held for a moment before shattering under the violent force of that fist.
"Bang!"
The fist pierced through the barrier, striking his chest.
"Pfft!"
Fang Li spat out a mouthful of blood and his body plummeted heavily from the sky.
"Boom!"
The martial arts arena trembled continuously, splitting directly into two. Fang Li’s body sank into the ground, causing the entire area to shake persistently.
The whole audience was stunned, their gazes sweeping toward the youth standing nonchalantly in the sky.
Did this battle conclude with just one palm strike and one punch?
"Rumble!"
The martial arts arena, struck by Fang Li’s body, instantly broke in half, blasting into two pieces. In the dust and smoke, Fang Li was nowhere to be seen.
Ye Qingfeng, with one hand in his pocket, slowly withdrew his fist, his gaze indifferently sweeping below.
"Ye Jiujie, how could he be this powerful?"
The five elders of the Demon Punishment Palace wore expressions of shock and suspicion. Fang Li held the top position in their palace, with his strength and cultivation at the War Emperor level, making him absolutely a top expert among the external disciples of the Ancient Martial Sect, arguably the best among them.
Yet in Ye Qingfeng’s hands, just a punch and a palm strike had made him vomit blood and fall. Was Ye Jiujie really this fierce?
"Strong, too strong!"
Zu Feng couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes filled with fanaticism and reverence.
Although he was proud and arrogant, faced with such a world-defying genius, all he could do was admire.
Dao Xuzi and others shook their heads with wry smiles. They had lived for nearly two hundred years, yet they couldn’t compare to this youth. This young man’s understanding of martial arts and cultivation had reached a divine level, leaving them in the dust.
"This little fellow is just too surprising!"
Qiao Lianxiang’s beautiful eyes shone with joy, exhaling in amazement.
Many female disciples of the Thunderbolt Sect felt their hearts fluttering. Glancing at Zu Feng, then at the proudly standing Ye Qingfeng, they suddenly realized there was an insurmountable gap between geniuses. Previously, they indeed were looking at the sky from the bottom of the well.
"Ye... Jiujie!"
Yi Xun enunciated each word, as if etching them into her heart, to permanently remember that face as handsome as a heavenly god.
As for Yi Yue, she had already transformed into a fan girl, her eyes filled with infatuation.
"Does he always face every opponent without fear, victory in his grasp?"
Miao Miaomiao shook her head slightly. Ye Qingfeng’s terror had reached an indescribable level.
At her age, achieving such cultivation made her an exceptional genius. But to face the elder sect masters from various great sects would still need decades of honing and cultivation.
Yet Ye Qingfeng, at a similar young age, could easily defeat a War Emperor level demonic genius with just one hand. With such strength, who could contend?
"Whoosh!"
Amidst the astonishment, a figure shot out from the dust, hair disheveled, clothes torn, looking utterly embarrassed.
Fang Li, with a face covered in dust, his heterochromatic eyes filled with dread and hatred, gazed upon Ye Qingfeng.
Beneath his tattered clothing glimmered scales, eye-catching upon closer inspection, revealing it was a suit of black scale armor he wore close to his body.
Yet, at this moment, the black scale armor showed signs of breaking, cracks appearing in several places, the scales shattered.
Seeing this, the pupils of the five elders of the Demon Punishment Palace contracted further, and their hearts were filled with even more fear.
This scale armor was one of the highest treasures of their Demon Punishment Palace, known as "Black Scale Soft Hedgehog Armor," made from the peak Emperor Beast’s leather armor. Worn upon the body, it could withstand attacks from a War Emperor without injury. Even a true War Emperor’s attack could be mostly deflected, providing immense protection to the wearer, an unimaginably hard defensive artifact.
But now, this Black Scale Soft Hedgehog Armor was damaged, layer by layer of scales broken, which was truly startling.
Fang Li wiped the blood from his mouth, unable to hide the horror in his eyes.
He had fully deployed the protective spiritual energy, yet Ye Qingfeng’s punch, devoid of any spiritual energy or power, was executed purely with physical strength.
Yet this plain punch not only shattered his protective spiritual energy but also broke apart the Black Scale Soft Hedgehog Armor he wore, injuring him further.
Such terrifying physical strength was simply heaven-defying.
"Ye Jiujie!"
Fang Li uttered each word through clenched teeth, burning with rage, his teeth almost biting through.
Ye Qingfeng gazed down from above, a trace of mockery on his face.
"If not for that shell, that punch would have been enough to kill you on the spot!"
He looked at Fang Li with a playful smile.
"I know you still have some tricks, so show them quickly. I came all this way to deal with you scums, don’t bore me!"
The people of the Demon Punishment Palace, initially aggressive and ambitious, switched their positions entirely when met with Ye Qingfeng, feeling restrained everywhere. Even their formidable Palace Master Fang Li fell prey to Ye Qingfeng’s ridicule, and still, it carried such resounding authority.
The Thunderbolt Sect and Lotus Sect members felt it was incredibly absurd that Fang Li, once regarded with pride and superiority in the outer sect, was now looked down upon so disdainfully from a height.
It was a situation they had never dared to imagine before, but Ye Qingfeng turned it into reality.
The Invincible War God, Ye Jiujie, was not only defiant and outrageous in the Mortal World but remained unstoppable in the Ancient Martial Sect!
"Ye Jiujie, I will kill you today!"
Fang Li roared to the sky, his dreadful momentum rising once again.
Although Ye Qingfeng had struck him with a punch, the Black Scale Soft Hedgehog Armor protected him, leaving only mild injuries and not significantly diminishing his combat power.
He extended his right hand, his palm erupting with a black energy cluster, transforming into black sparks flying across the sky, an attractive force suddenly bursting forth at that moment.
"Buzz!"
An extremely pleasant sound echoed across the sky, as someone at the back of the Demon Punishment Palace held an iron box, which exploded, shooting out a dark blue light.
In an instant, half the sky was stained with an eerie dark blue hue, a sinister and murderous aura sweeping across the field, causing everyone’s expressions to change dramatically.
Ye Qingfeng’s eyes lifted slightly as Fang Li leapt up, gripping that dark blue light with his black aura-covered hand.
"Swish!"
Beneath Fang Li, a circle of black energy swirled, and the dark blue light in his hand shot straight into the sky, piercing through the clouds.
"That is... Heavy Slaughter?"
Dao Xuzi’s gaze focused on the dark blue object in Fang Li’s hand, which was a large, ominous black knife, surrounded by black energy.
