"Not good, retreat quickly!"

"Heavens, what martial technique is this, how can it be so terrifying!"

"Ah! No!"

Ye Chen executed the Nine Steps of Kirin, accompanied by an invincible mythical beast at his side. Each step he took erupted with supreme power, sweeping across the elites attacking him.

"What level of martial technique is this!" Li Xiaoran exclaimed in shock as he watched the man who seemed to split the heavens with his steps.

Ye Chen was like an invincible god descending, stepping on the void, each step releasing immense power. The strength was so intense that, even when diffused, it was hard for the elites to counter.

Li Xiaoran, who had also been chasing the White Tiger, wanting to obtain this supreme treasure, saw Ye Chen suppress the ancient blade, and this peerless genius also wanted to forcefully take the blade from Ye Chen's hands.

However, Ye Chen displayed an unrivaled martial technique, bursting forth with power that swept through the elites, making even him struggle to defend!

Li Xiaoran was greatly startled, faintly remembering that back at the Peak Group meeting, Ye Chen was only in the later stages of a Grandmaster, far behind him in strength—how could he be so powerful now!

Li Xiaoran had had his own miraculous experience in the cave dwelling, barely one step away from ascending to the Nine Dragons, and yet Ye Chen's strength had surpassed his, astonishingly!

"Nan Zhiji, he's charging toward Ye Chen, wanting a peak battle with him!"

Li Xiaoran's eyes sparkled as he saw Nan Zhiji among the elites charging forward, intent on getting close to Ye Chen to forcefully annihilate him!

Nan Zhiji, the eldest son of Na Wudao, like Li Xiaoran, was one of the Four Elites. The Dragon King's son's strength was terrifying, hardly less than the young Dragon King himself!

Nan Zhiji was already the most formidable among the Four Elites. Even though Li Xiaoran had some adventures in the cave dwelling and was about to rise to the Nine Dragons, he admitted he was no match for Nan Zhiji!

This man was overly terrifying, horrendously so, unmatched in his realm!

Nan Zhiji, recognized by countless elites as the strongest below the Nine Dragons!

With this Dragon Son launching a powerful attack, could Ye Chen withstand even a few strikes?

"What, Nan Zhiji was defeated!" Li Xiaoran said in shock, his face full of disbelief.

Nan Zhiji was thoroughly and cleanly defeated. He had come with terror, wanting to strongly suppress Ye Chen and snatch that astonishing Divine Weapon.

However, in the face of Nan Zhiji's strong expedition, Ye Chen was quite composed. He stomped down, infinite power erupted, directly colliding with Nan Zhiji.

Then, Nan Zhiji retreated cleanly, without dragging it out.

After being defeated, Nan Zhiji's face showed confusion, falling into deep shock.

He, the son of the Dragon King and heir to Na Wudao's most powerful martial arts talents, having received many fortunes in the cave dwelling and about to ascend to the Nine Dragons, the strongest below such beings, had been defeated just like that?

Suddenly, Nan Zhiji somewhat understood his father's decision, knowing why he wished for a pinnacle battle with Ye Chen.

Only a monstrous being like Ye Chen was worthy of being a stepping stone for a Ten Dragons being, letting forbidden beings ascend to divinity in one leap!

Nan Zhiji's retreat caused untold shock among the numerous elites in an instant. With a single move defeating a son of the Dragon King, this level of strength was indeed comparable to the Nine Dragons.

Ye Chen also felt something peculiar in his heart, the timing of Nan Zhiji's assault was too cunning, coming at him precisely when he executed the sixth step of the Kirin Ascending the Heavens, his strongest attack which could match the Nine Dragons. Nan Zhiji attacking at this moment was like seeking his own defeat!

However, Ye Chen was still frantically escaping, stepping on the Seven Stars, and displaying the godly speed of Chasing the Moon, clutching the terrifying ancient blade trying to shake off the pursuit of the elites.

However, just as Ye Chen was about to successfully escape, a terrifying Sword Qi slashed towards him!

This Sword Qi tore through the void, shaking the heavens, displaying terrifying divine might, and even a Nine Dragons being might end up crippled or wounded if struck.

Ye Chen's face drastically changed, and he immediately burst forth, positioning the ancient blade in front of him, attempting to block the terrifying Sword Qi.

"Boom!"

The astonishing Sword Qi, like a white rainbow slashing down, struck the ancient blade in Ye Chen's hand, immediately stirring up a violent surge and inciting boundless terror.

Ye Chen grunted, his blood qi churning within him, and then his body was sent flying horizontally.

"Kill!"

A being from the Nine Dragons emerged, wielding a stone sword and madly pursued Ye Chen.

"Bastard!"

Yun Xianghan, masked in fury, summoned the Ten Dragons which soared to the sky and held the warriors in awe, then thrust toward the Nine Dragons figure with the stone sword.

The Ten Dragons Ascension, the strongest existence among the Land Gods, possessed an invincible might capable of sweeping away the Nine Dragons!

"Boom!"

With Ten Dragons accompanying her, Yun Xianghan became terrifying to the extreme, capable of conquering Land Gods; however, the Nine Dragons figure, unfazed and wielding the stone sword, swept it in a strike!

An overwhelming Sword Qi swept in, shaking the heavens, tearing the void apart, seemingly with the boundless power of innumerable spirits, reaching peak horror, a force surpassing that of the Nine Dragons!

"What!" Yun Xianghan's face showed great alarm as she saw the invincible Sword Qi sweeping towards her, disbelief evident in her eyes.

Despite the Nine Dragons figure having weaker combat strength than her, he managed to release such invincible Sword Qi, which greatly shocked Yun Xianghan.

Nevertheless, despite her shock, Yun Xianghan erupted with magnificent power, colliding violently with that sky-splitting Sword Qi.

As a being of the Ten Dragons Taboo, even the fearsome instability of that Sword Qi couldn't harm her in the slightest.

However, her steps to rescue were blocked, as the Nine Dragons being was already moving to kill Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, be careful! This character is extremely terrifying, possessing a Taboo-level combat force!" Yun Xianghan transmitted to Ye Chen.

"Hmm!"

Ye Chen's figure darted repeatedly, executing his "Seven Stars Chasing the Moon" technique to its limits, transforming himself into a streak of human lightning.

"Youngster, you can't escape!"

This Nine Dragons being also mastered movement technique secrets, his speed as strong as or stronger than Ye Chen's.

"You are a Nine Dragons being, the strongest under heaven. I am but a junior, yet you bullying the weaker—have you no shame!" Ye Chen dodged an astonishing Sword Qi and yelled at the Nine Dragons figure.

The ancient blade in Ye Chen's hand was still in turmoil; he struggled to suppress it, striving to gain control while he frantically ran to escape the suppression of the Nine Dragons being.

This ancient blade stirred waves in Ye Chen's heart, giving him a strong intuition that as long as he could suppress and control this blade, he would be able to unleash a combat force capable of sweeping away all adversaries.

"That time the earthen jar appeared, containing supreme Spiritual Liquid. Five of us battled furiously wanting to obtain the jar! Unwillingly, the jar ultimately fell into your hands, a young thief, turning all our efforts to vain, an outrageous disgrace!" the Nine Dragons being roared, he and Ye Chen having old grudges from their previous scramble for the jar.

"Without that Spiritual Liquid, how could the Chaotic King break through the Ten Dragons and rise above me!"

"It's all because of you! If it weren't for you stealing that jar, all that treasure and Spiritual Liquid would have been mine, and I would be the one breaking through the Ten Dragons!"

"Today, you again stand before me, stealing this strongest ancient blade, you truly deserve death!"

"I would not fulfill my path if I do not kill you!"

This Nine Dragons being was inflamed with rage, swinging his stone sword indomitably, nearly wishing to tear Ye Chen into thousands of pieces.
