"Ye Chen! Do you dare to take this sword from me?!"
On the arena, Li Mingfeng was enveloped in dark red malevolent energy, letting out a hoarse growl!
The longsword in his hand hummed, seemingly eager to tear apart the enemy before him.
As the sharp Sword Qi intertwined with the blood-red energy of the sword, blood began to seep from Li Mingfeng's face, making his expression twisted.
"Hmph! What is there to fear?!"
Ye Chen also let out a low growl, casually thrusting his longsword into the ground.
All the spiritual power of his Aperture Opening Realm Peak was condensed, and at the same time, he fully activated the power of his 潛蛟 Wang Body.
He stomped hard on the ground, his feet rooted to the earth like dragon claws gripping a mountain.
His arm muscles bulged, visibly enlarging, and veins like coiling dragons knotted across them.
His body sank slightly, like a flood dragon tightening its body, beginning to gather strength.
"Ascending Dragon!"
Ye Chen let out a furious roar, and streaks of blood-red energy, like flood dragons, swirled around him!
The next moment, Ye Chen punched out fiercely, terrifying power erupting in an instant, making the very space shriek with this punch!
The punch wind howled, sounding like a flood dragon roaring in one's ears.
The force of the punch was like an overwhelming tide, the vast punch light transforming into an enraged ascending flood dragon, rushing rapidly towards Li Mingfeng.
Along its path, it stirred up flying sand and shattered stones, seemingly accompanied by roars of enraged dragons!
Li Mingfeng also fiercely swung his sword at this moment!
"Sea of Blood Sword Wave!"
Accompanying his furious roar, a surging bloody sword light shot out, densely packed, as if truly a sea of sword light and blood had been unleashed!
Blood light and sword light intertwined, like a monstrous torrent, carrying an Aura of tearing and destruction, meeting the majestic, dragon-like punch light!
The punch light was like an ascending enraged dragon, the sword light like a surging sea of blood. The next moment, the two collided violently, and a deafening explosion suddenly erupted!
Ripples of energy spread rapidly outwards from the point of impact.
Wherever they passed, the ground was crushed like tofu, and huge stones instantly turned to dust!
A fierce wind howled, raging in all directions, and the stirred-up dust and sand turned into small, swirling tornadoes!
Both Ye Chen and Li Mingfeng were sent flying backwards by the aftermath of the explosion!
Many people straightened up, eagerly craning their necks, wanting to see the situation in the arena clearly.
"Who won?"
"The attacks of these two are truly fierce. Even a Five Heavens would have to deal with their power seriously!"
Heavenly Sword Holy Land.
Zhao Qinghui shook her head; she had already seen the situation in the arena clearly.
After a few breaths, the aftermath in the arena subsided.
It was seen that Ye Chen's clothes were torn, his upper body naked, covered with numerous tiny sword marks.
Although he looked extremely disheveled, he still stood proudly!
As for Li Mingfeng, a large bloody hole appeared in his chest.
It was because after the two sides' attacks collided, Ye Chen's attack was superior.
Not only did it break through the sea of sword light and blood, but the dragon-like punch light still had enough power to strike Li Mingfeng's body!
Li Mingfeng lay sprawled on the ground, blood continuously gushing from his mouth, staining a large area of the ground.
His face was as pale as paper, his eyes wide, still filled with disbelief.
However, although he was severely injured to this extent, he had not fallen into a dying state.
"I won!"
Ye Chen clenched his fists, roaring in a low voice. Defeating Li Mingfeng made him feel more exhilarated than when he had swept away all his opponents on the arena previously!
Although he was injured at this moment, he felt his condition was unprecedentedly good!
'Perhaps I took the wrong path from the beginning. Fighting to sustain myself, constantly engaging with powerful enemies, and transforming myself—that is the path I should take!'
Ye Chen seemed to have come to some realization, slowly closing his eyes and actually sitting cross-legged in this martial arts training ground!
On the other side, the heavily injured Li Mingfeng was taken back to the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, where a Great Power took action to stabilize his injuries.
And Ye Chen's posture at this moment also aroused everyone's curiosity.
"What is he doing? He's actually cultivating in this martial arts training ground?"
"Could it be that he has gained some insight and is about to break through?"
"Impossible! He just broke through in battle earlier, how could he break through again? Do you think he's the son of Deleted?!"
Unlike the Disciples who only saw the surface, all the Great Powers at this moment saw Ye Chen's state clearly.
"Enlightenment!"
"This kid, a mere Third Level Heaven, can actually have such an insight and enter a state of enlightenment!"
Even the Great Powers were surprised.
On the high platform.
Chu Ge was also surprised by this.
He hadn't expected Ye Chen to still have good fortune after experiencing a Breakthrough during battle.
To be honest, even if Ye Chen's strength improved again after enlightenment,
to Chu Ge, he was nothing more than a slightly larger ant, easily crushable.
But if left unchecked, there would eventually be trouble.
[Child of Destiny are always full of surprises and uncertainties. I can't be too careless. Although the current Ye Chen is very weak in my eyes, if I don't pay constant attention, he might become a formidable force in an instant.]
[Fortunately, everything is still under control. After enlightenment, Ye Chen should challenge me. This leek is finally ready for harvest.]
Chu Ge casually recorded a few paragraphs of his current thoughts in his Diary, then slowly stood up.
He felt it; Ye Chen's Aura had finally stopped amplifying and was slowly returning to calm.
At Yunmiao Pavilion, Tantai Xuanyin looked at the Diary Copy in her hand, visible only to herself, and a flicker of thought crossed her eyes.
After this Diary Copy appeared, she did not bind it immediately but observed it for a few days.
Earlier, Tantai Jinglian had come here and had a conversation with her, which allowed her to learn more about the Diary Copy, finally leading her to a decision.
'Bind.' She responded in her mind, and a stream of information flowed into her mind. The Diary Copy in her hand disappeared the next moment.
At the same time, the interface of the Diary Copy appeared in her mind.
'Truly a wondrous creation!'
Tantai Xuanyin sighed inwardly, then focused her attention on the martial arts training ground below.
Below, Ye Chen awoke from his enlightenment. As he opened his eyes, joyful dragon roars seemed to echo in the void!
Clenching his fists, he felt the power within him, several times more surging than before, and a look of ecstasy flashed in his eyes!
One session of enlightenment had elevated his development and mastery of his Wang Body to a higher level!
Slowly standing up, Ye Chen's gaze shifted slightly, finally settling on Chu Ge, who was looking down at him from the high platform.
Feeling the unprecedentedly powerful strength within him, Ye Chen took a deep breath, met Chu Ge's gaze, and suddenly let out a furious roar: "Chu Ge! Come down and fight!"
His voice resounded throughout the surroundings, lingering for a long time!
An unprecedentedly high fighting spirit also emanated from Ye Chen!
Chu Ge's lips curved into a smile, and he slowly walked down from the high platform.
Streaks of faint white steps extended from beneath his feet, and Chu Ge descended step by step from the void.
His way of appearing was not flashy, but rather extremely simple and unadorned.
But it was precisely this behavior that gave people immense pressure!
Because these steps were entirely condensed by Chu Ge using spiritual power!
Seeing a small part to understand the whole, Chu Ge's move not only demonstrated his exquisite control over his spiritual power to the utmost degree!
It also revealed his terrifyingly bottomless and vast spiritual power, enough to be wantonly squandered!
All of this was displayed before everyone's eyes, causing many to feel their hearts pound with fear!
This was simply not a method that a Third Level Heaven Cultivator could possess!
