Chapter 132 - 121: Divine? Robber?

Chapter 132: Chapter 121: Divine? Robber?

After the Heavenly Divine Auction House’s grand auction event, a lavish banquet was being held where the powerhouses mingled over cups and dishes, delicious cuisine was spread across the tables, and millennium-aged wine was freely savored, creating a pleasant atmosphere.

Ye Chen, after speaking briefly with Li Yun and Shuangshuang, moved to another empty table to enjoy the delicacies, since he wasn’t accustomed to enthusiastically conversing with strangers—perhaps it was also due to his experiences from his two lifetimes, making crowds somewhat unsuitable for him.

Despite this, he still became an eye-catching figure in the eyes of many.

With the Silver Ape King from Demon Beast Mountain Range stepping forward as his protector and giving him Heavenly God Dao Soldiers, and as the possessor of Divine Forbidden Secret Skill, everything about him seemed extraordinary.

"Thank you, senior!" Ye Chen approached and respectfully offered a cup of wine to the Silver Ape King, who also preferred to stay away from the crowd.

The Silver Ape King chuckled and returned the toast. Though there had been conflicts on the battlefield in the past, one does not strike a smiling face, and moreover, this young man was specially instructed by the Lord to be taken care of, and might even be the disciple of that Divine who had previously helped the Lord suppress his Dao injury. From any perspective, he dared not underestimate this youth.

This scene caught the side-glances of many. It was now clear to everyone that this silver-haired middle-aged man was none other than the incarnation of the Beast God of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, a formidable Demon Race Heavenly God, whom even the ancestors of the Royal Family wary.

Soon after, a Martial God expert from the Heavenly Divine Auction House personally came over and entrusted the Heavenly God Dao Soldiers into his hands.

The Thunder God Spear, which had fetched a sky-high price of twelve million at the auction, finally landed in his hands. Weighing fifteen thousand pounds, even Ye Chen felt his arms sink slightly when he lifted it—an aptly named heavy weapon.

Not to mention that once fully revived, this Divine Spear could match the strike of a Heavenly God. Merely the tremendous weight of fifteen thousand pounds could collapse half a mountain if swept across it—indeed, a heavy weapon.

However, the Thunder God Spear was ultimately a Heavenly God Dao Soldier, and without the support of immense Divine Power, it couldn’t be fully revived. Only a true Heavenly Divine Realm Expert could completely revive such Heavenly God Dao Soldiers; otherwise, even a Super Martial God could only revive a small part of its power.

As Ye Chen took hold of the Thunder God Spear, dark gold patterns intertwined on the shaft, with several dark-red bloodstains blending in with the pitch-black color of the spear shaft, making it nearly invisible unless scrutinized closely.

It was said that this Heavenly Divine Spear had once slain a Heavenly God and tasted Heavenly Divine Blood. Now, it seemed more than likely true rather than a mere legend.

Ye Chen smiled slightly; although the Heavenly Divine Spear weighed fifteen thousand pounds, his body was sufficiently robust. This weight wasn’t an issue for him, and proficient in spear usage, he could unleash immense power with this Heavenly Divine Spear in his hands.

"Ye Chen!"

At this moment, Crown Prince Xia Yang approached, his gaze also hotly fixed on the Heavenly Divine Spear in his hands. This spear was initially to be auctioned by the Royal Family, but unforeseenly Ye Chen emerged, supported by the intervention of Demon Beast Mountain Range, and it slipped through his fingers.

Seeing Xia Yang, Ye Chen smiled and asked, "Do you need something?"

For some reason, Crown Prince now found Ye Chen even more dangerous than before, despite showing no hostility, an ominous and perilous aura emanated from him.

Yet, this did not instill fear in him, but rather filled him with a battle desire, his eyes burning intensely as he asked, "You will be participating in Tiandu Academy’s Trial Road this time, won’t you?"

Trial Road was this year’s entrance trial for Tiandu Academy, unlike any past year, rumored to involve a Divine’s small world discovered for this occasion.

However, this year’s entrance trial also differed, presenting several unforeseen variables.

Ye Chen replied with a light smile, "Naturally."

These simple words embodied Ye Chen’s attitude. Tiandu Academy was far from an ordinary Cultivation Academy, being the highest Cultivation Holy Land on the entire Tiandu Continent, it was indeed extraordinary.

His life was not meant to be confined to Luofeng City, to Xiafeng Country, or even to the Tiandu Continent. Heavenly and Myriad of Realms—the destination matchless suited for him, a former Supreme from past lives.

In future days, he was bound to reach the Absolute Peak and fight again on Emperor Road.

Boom—

Suddenly, a terrifyingly immense wave traveled from the distant horizon, causing mountains and valleys to tremble. The fearful vibration, even passing through thousands of miles of sky, arrived in Xiafeng Royal City, shocking countless people.

Originally mingling over their cups, the powerhouses at the auction venue now became pale and at the same time rushed out of the auction house, hovering in the void, looking toward the east.

And that direction was precisely where the super forces had departed.

There, an endless, dazzling brilliance completely ignited the dark curtain, transforming it into broad daylight, causing the stars in the sky to lose their luster. The Eastern Heavenly Dome was a blinding expanse of bright light, accompanied by world-shocking Dao Waves that echoed with rolling, booming sounds that filled the vast sky.

Even though they were tens of thousands of miles away, they could still feel the enormous, boundless fluctuations, as if the heavens were about to shatter and the earth was about to crack, causing everyone to pale in fear.

At this time, how could everyone not understand? Everyone was aware that after Divine Elder of the Martial God Temple left with Divine’s Left Hand, they must have met with resistance. Perhaps it was the experts from the Three Great Empires or University among super forces who took action because of Divine’s Left Hand, revealing the magnitude of the battle.

"What a pity. I really wanted to go see," a Martial God Realm expert suddenly lamented.

"Right, if it weren’t for the concern over the fluctuations from the battles of Heavenly Divine Realm experts, I would have wanted to go see just how fierce the fighting was," another prestigious figure in the Martial God Realm said. The fluctuations from the fights of Heavenly Divine Realm experts were too terrifying, capable of destroying vast stretches of mountains and rivers, far beyond what those below the Heavenly Divine Realm could withstand, otherwise they would have definitely gone to witness the great battle.

The Silver Ape King shook his head in disappointment, "What a pity. If it weren’t for the fact that my master does not allow it, I would have also liked to battle fiercely."

Everyone was in awe, truly filled with dread regarding the existence of the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

Among all the stunned people, only Ye Chen revealed a meaningful smile.

The terrifying battle fluctuations continued for an entire half of the night; even during this period, several even more terrifying auras exploded, carrying traces of Divine pressure, making one almost believe that a Divine being had descended.

However, everyone understood that during the struggle for Divine’s Left Hand, these super forces probably employed Forbidden Level Daoist Soldiers and Magical Instruments.

All of it was dread-inducing because although Forbidden Level Daoist Soldiers and Magical Instruments were not as powerful as Divine Ancient Weapons, once they erupted, they were equally terrifying and could potentially lead to the downfall of several Heavenly Gods.

Especially since these were Heavenly Gods from super forces; if they all fell there, it would turn the world upside down.

But at the last moment, a vast, endless pressure like the starlit sky suddenly descended, causing the stars in the sky to shake, and the Dao was boundless.

Divine being had descended!

Everyone paled, a Supreme Divine taking action in this affair was unprecedented.

The next moment, everyone felt pity for those at the Martial God Temple, for with a Supreme Divine taking action, victory was destined to be theirs. Even Forbidden Level magical instruments were of no use, as these were all concocted by a Supreme Divine.

Moreover, the so-called super forces were completely ineffective in front of a Supreme Divine, as any Supreme Divine could establish a super force.

"Why would you, a high and mighty Divine Spirit, also take action? This isn’t fair," a Heavenly God yelled, his voice shaking mountains and rivers. Even in the Royal Capital of the Central Capital, the sound was faintly heard, yet it was a sound of utter helplessness.

A Supreme Divine taking action made all efforts merely dress the bride, and no more Heavenly Gods could possibly contend.

The Divine being spoke with an indifferent voice as it descended, "What is fair? There is no absolute fairness in this world. Today, Divine’s Left Hand is of great use to me. Taking it is justified, all for the future Heaven Punishment."

Heaven Punishment!

Once this term was involved, it carried profound implications, understood by those who had reached the Heavenly Divine Realm.

"Divine Lord, it’s one thing for you to seize Divine’s Left Hand, but why also seize the Divine Blood Essence of our Soaring Dragon Empire?" Not just others, even the Heavenly Divine Realm experts from the Soaring Dragon Empire were full of bitterness. They really wanted to curse out loud. This Divine... was nothing but a robber, a bandit!

"I’ve been researching some things recently, and just lacked some Divine Blood Essence. You delivered it right to my door, can’t help it. Give my thanks to your Divine Ancestor," the Divine responded.

Nevermind the ancestor of the Soaring Dragon Empire, far tens of thousands of miles away, even the guests at the banquet felt a wave of helplessness. Damn it, they had never seen such a shameless Divine being, justifying robbery so openly.

But not a single person dared to voice this; Divine might was boundless, and no one knew if he could hear their words.

Only Ye Chen, with eyes observing his nose, his nose observing his heart, kept eating and drinking wildly by himself.

Finally, the Divine pressure completely dissipated, but one could faintly hear the Heavenly Gods of the few great super forces wailing in sorrow before it faded completely.

The banquet had not yet concluded, but Ye Chen quietly left midway and arrived outside the Royal Capital, in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains. A figure appeared in front of him, it was Elder Yan.
