Chapter 109: Jade Linglong

  Ye Chen escaped the range of Huo Shenzi's giant handprint, and the terrifying effect caused by that one palm strike left him shocked and bewildered in his heart. It was truly too powerful! With just one palm strike, the mountains and trees within a radius of over ten miles were reduced to dust, and the mountain peaks crumbled as if they wanted to destroy the world. Was this the power of Fudi's personally taught first disciple?

  During the daytime, the battle between Huo Yuhao and Qiu Qingqing was also intense, but the visual impact was far from comparable to the shocking effect caused at this moment.

  After escaping the destructive range of Huo Shenzi's palm, Ye Chen hid in the crevices of several large rocks. He held his breath and switched to internal breathing, using his pores to breathe, which would further ensure that he wouldn't be discovered by Huo Shenzi.

  In the distant void, the body of Huo Shenzi was dazzlingly brilliant, like a fiery sun, with flames raging all over his body, endless firelight bursting into the sky, and his powerful divine sense suddenly scanning out. Suddenly, the cold smile on his face vanished, and he let out a voice of surprise.

  "Huh? I don't sense any ants' auras, it feels like he's not even in the region below, or maybe he escaped?"

  Huǒ Shén Zǐ whispered softly to himself, then took a few steps forward, pulling up a long string of fire shadows, like a wheel of fire sweeping across the sky.

  At that moment, Ye Chen felt the powerful divine sense of Huo Shenzi sweeping towards him. Ye Chen was startled and didn't know if Huo Shenzi had discovered his location, so he remained motionless in the crack of the stone.

  "Hmm!"

  Huǒ Shénzǐ's eyes shot out two divine lights, piercing through the void, intimidating and boundless. He coldly laughed and locked onto Ye Chen's hidden boulders. His right palm slowly rose and was about to press down.

  Ye Chen's heart sank, and upon hearing Huo Shenzi's mocking cold laughter, he knew that Huo Shenzi had already discovered his location. Under Huo Shenzi's powerful strength, Ye Chen didn't have a single thread of hope for survival.

  Buzz!

  In the void, another massive hand seal appeared, covering an area of several dozen miles. The fiery red hand descended, as if it was going to crush the earth into nothingness. Although it was still far away from Ye Chen's head, the powerful shockwave that emanated from it caused his body to constantly shatter, with blood gushing out like a fountain all over him. The cracks on his skin were like spider webs, spreading and expanding continuously.

  At this moment, Ye Chen felt that under the terrifying power of Huo Shenzi, his body was as fragile as glass, and it would shatter with just a slight touch. This was the difference in strength!

  Pfft!!

  Ye Chen's body was covered in cracks, his orange-golden blood staining his clothes completely. In the distant void, Huo Shenzi's face wore a cruel smile as he discovered Ye Chen's location. However, he didn't want him to die instantly, for that would not quench the anger burning within him. His palm pressed down slowly, wanting Ye Chen to feel every moment of pain and torment, to watch his own body shatter piece by piece until he died in despair and terror.

  Ye Chen gritted his teeth, hatred burning in his heart, but unfortunately, his own strength was too weak. In just one day, he had been humiliated twice, unable to even muster a shred of resistance! Humiliation! Endless humiliation!!

  Pffft!!

  Fissures continued to spread, and his neck burst open with several mouths. The orange-gold blood splattered, dyeing the stone walls on both sides gold. Ye Chen leaned against the stone wall in the gap, trembling constantly. The heart-wrenching pain of his body bursting was like countless knives cutting his flesh.

  Ye Chen's eyes had turned bloodshot from enduring immense pain, and his face and forehead were covered in cracks. The blue veins seemed to be bursting out of his skin. That handsome face that was once almost perfect was now covered in bloodstains, looking ferocious and terrifying.

  In a distant place, a woman in purple palace attire sat cross-legged at the summit of a towering peak that pierced the sky. Her black hair was as smooth as silk, and her light gauze veil covered her face. Her beautiful eyes were tightly closed, and her sash and hem fluttered in the wind. Countless vital energies and threads from all over the world converged on her.

  The woman in purple suddenly opened her eyes, and two divine lights shot out from them, piercing through the void and shining for dozens of miles!

  "Chen'er!" The purple-robed beauty suddenly stood up, softly calling out. A few symbols appeared in her palm and were quickly thrown into the void, a transmission array woven with intricate patterns suddenly appeared, and the void was torn apart with a loud ripping sound. With one step of her jade foot, Yu Linglong's body instantly merged into it and disappeared from the spot.

  Ye Chen's consciousness was already somewhat blurry, he felt his body was about to shatter into pieces, the massive loss of blood and energy made him unable to stand up again, with a thud he fell to the ground, blood flowing out from his body, gathering into streams that dyed a patch of land red.

  Suddenly, Ye Chen felt a sudden relaxation throughout his body. All the pressure and aura from Huo Zhenzi disappeared instantly without a trace. A power that was hard to describe poured into his body, flowing through every corner of his body. Ye Chen felt all the injuries on his body recover instantly.

  "This..."

  The sudden change of events left Ye Chen somewhat bewildered, he quickly walked out from the stone crevice, a purple figure appeared in his line of sight, with silky black hair, cloud-like temples, and a delicate jade hairpin inserted, two bright pearls on her ears, shining brightly.

  Ye Chen's heart was filled with surprise and doubt, it was indeed Yu Linglong who appeared at this critical moment. She stood there, gazing calmly into the distance at Huo Shenzi, whose enormous hand of flames seemed to be frozen in mid-air, unable to move even a fraction further.

  "Who are you, daring to interfere with the affairs of Huo Shen Zi? Do you know the consequences of doing so?"

  Huǒ Shénzi's face was gloomy, and his heart was equally astonished. The sudden appearance of the purple palace dress woman did not make a move, but just stood there. However, he found that his hand could not press down even half a point, as if it were locked in mid-air.

  "The Six Harmony Secret Realm will change five times, and in three years, I'll give you the chance to take this person's head with your own strength to wash away today's humiliation!" Yuling said calmly.

  "Haha!! How arrogant, what makes you think you can give him three years, today he must die!" Huo Shenzi said with extreme arrogance, and then showed disdain, ignoring Ye Chen. "Not to mention giving him three years, even thirty years, three hundred years, with a useless body like his, he's still just an ant!"

  Yu Linglong seemed to have not heard Huo Shenzi's words, turned her head and looked at Ye Chen behind her, a hint of softness flashing in her eyes, "Chen Er, can you do it in three years?"

  Three years? If Ye Chen can break the seal of his dantian, he has that confidence. However, when the seal of his dantian will be lifted is still unknown. Nevertheless, this cannot stop his determination to become stronger. What will happen in three years, no one can predict. Just as he was about to respond, Yuling's voice rang out again, "Within three years, you must have the power to kill him! Your aunt only gives you three years!"

  "Alright, three years it is!" Ye Chen's eyes turned cold, and a surge of unprecedented confidence rose in his heart. The pressure from the Fire God's Son and Yu Linglong's words ignited the invincible conviction and will within his Chaotic Bloodline.

  "Hahaha, insignificant ant, no need to wait three years, I'll crush you now!" Huo Shenzi laughed maniacally, but this time he didn't casually stretch out his hand to slap him. Instead, he brought out his own Inferno Furnace.

  A gigantic furnace appeared above the Fire God's head, with endless flames burning fiercely, scorching hot air filling the sky and earth, and all trees within a radius of ten miles turned to ashes.

  "What a racket!"

  Yu Linglong furrowed her slender, long eyebrows, her eyes still fixed on Ye Chen, without even turning her body, she raised her hand and pointed backwards, a delicate jade finger suddenly lengthened and enlarged, as if it was going to pierce through the heavens.

  That jade finger stretched for dozens of miles and suddenly poked towards Huo Shenzi.

  Huǒ Shén Zǐ was greatly shocked, with a look of terror in his eyes. What kind of divine power is this? It can actually make fingers penetrate tens of miles. It's really too terrifying. Moreover, he didn't feel any fluctuations in spiritual energy at all. This explains two possibilities: first, the purple-robed woman used physical divine power; second, the purple-robed woman used magical powers. Thinking of these two possibilities, Huǒ Shén Zǐ trembled all over his body.

  Fa Li is the transformation after spiritual power cultivation reaches its peak, only those who have entered the divine realm after cultivating to the secret boundary of the gods can possess it. This existence is not even dared to be underestimated by their lord, let alone him, who has only cultivated to the third secret boundary.

  In extreme terror, he swept his hands, and the fiery furnace on his head flew across the void like a fire-colored meteor, appearing in front of him in an instant.

  "Ding!"

  That jade finger poked into the fierce flame furnace of Huo Shenzi, and with a crackling sound, the fierce flame furnace suddenly split into four or five pieces.

  No!!

  Huǒ Shén Zǐ was terrified, his heart bleeding, that was his divine weapon, although only a first-class lower-grade divine weapon, but also a treasured item. He didn't expect it to be pierced by the opponent's finger and shattered into pieces. For the first time, Huǒ Shén Zǐ felt the fear of death, his whole body trembling, constantly retreating, wanting to escape.

  Pfft!

  A flash of blood light appeared, and a blood arrow burst out from the chest of Huo Shenzi, spraying into the air and blooming into a blood-colored flower. The jade finger easily penetrated his body, and a mysterious power seeped into his body, causing him to cough up large mouthfuls of blood, his body swaying like a jade pendant, almost falling from the sky.

  "Three years later, the power of Ben Zun left in your body will naturally disappear. Of course, within these three years, you need to sit still and heal your wounds every minute and second, otherwise it will be difficult to save your life. Three years later, Ye Chen will take your head to consolidate his Dao heart!"

  Yu Linglong's voice echoed in Huo Shenzu's ear, giving rise to endless resentment in his heart. However, facing Yu Linglong was like Ye Chen facing him - completely powerless to resist. One moment he had control over others' lives and deaths, yet the next, his own life was being controlled by someone else. Huo Shenzu regretted it deeply, if only he had known earlier, he would never have pursued Ye Chen through the night, nor could he have imagined that a mere mortal like Ye Chen would have such a powerful backer.

  "Get out!"

  Yu Linglong drank lightly and swung her hand, a gust of wild wind swept through the void, and Huo Zhenzi's body was like a kite, directly blown flying towards Ying City.
