Chapter 201: Chapter 185: Join Forces and Attack

Even a simple-minded girl like Vivian was angered; these people were not intending to help Ye Chen at all, they were clearly taking advantage of the opportunity to go after him. After all, Ye Chen was in a strange state at the moment, with his Primordial Spirit seemingly vanished, just standing there stiffly, a cause for concern.

But this also unexpectedly delighted many Trialists who had been wary of Ye Chen, because in such a state, Ye Chen was easiest to deal with. Moreover, they had just formed a grudge with Ye Chen, who had successively killed dozens of people and might still target the remaining ones. Thus, many Trialists harbored murderous thoughts towards Ye Chen.

Strike him while he’s ill, take his life—now was the best time to act!

"Fellow Daoists, please do not deceive yourselves. Give way immediately, as Lord Chen is in poor condition and needs protection as soon as possible, and we indeed intend to protect Lord Chen with all sincerity," a Trialist spoke up, his face the picture of righteousness.

However, the Thirteenth Prince and others recognized this person’s identity. He was a Trialist from Tianxia Country, named Liu Pei, and also one of the top 100 Trialists from an Affiliated Country of the Soaring Dragon Empire, his intentions despicably malevolent.

Vivian stood protectively in front of Ye Chen, arms outstretched, "No one is allowed to approach Brother Ye Chen."

Liu Pei spoke sarcastically, "Miss, you better leave quickly. We do not wish to harm you, but if you stubbornly block us, preventing us from protecting Lord Chen, do not blame us for being merciless."

"Right, I suspect that you people are purposely persecuting Lord Chen. We need to protect him well. You must make way immediately, or else consider yourselves as opposing us!" Another of the top 100 Trial Participants stepped forward.

Suddenly, the faces of Vivian and her companions greatly changed. The true colors of these people were finally revealed—direct threats.

Princess Hongs Rong coldly said, "If you want to go after Ye Chen, just say it openly. Don’t be so hypocritically fake, to the point of being detestable. And do you really think you can take on Ye Chen like this? Ridiculous! Do you not know who he is? If he really starts to attack, I fear none of you will Know whether you’ll be able to survive."

Upon hearing this, the faces of the strong turned pale, reminded of Ye Chen’s absolute dominance—a figure who feared nothing, who dared to kill even princes of super forces, who was fearless against super forces. Should Ye Chen actually be unharmed and decide to go on a spree, it would be a disaster for them.

Instantly, many began to entertain the thought of retreat; Dao Blood, precious as it was, was not worth more than their lives.

But then, someone in the shadows instigated further: "Do not be fooled by her. Ye Chen’s current state is clearly that of an out-of-body Primordial Spirit, oblivious to everything. Take the chance to kill him and seize the Dao Blood—that is the righteous path."

"The opportunity comes only once, Dao Blood is a supreme treasure. To bring it back to the elders of your own forces will surely bring endless rewards. Even the Divine Lords might be roused from their seclusion. Don’t you all desire that? This is a rare opportunity."

The Thirteenth Prince and others turned pale, as those in the shadows revealed their cunning and malicious intent. And in that moment, the eyes of the strong flared with greed. After all, Dao Blood was indeed a Supreme Treasure, and Ye Chen’s current condition did indeed raise suspicions.

"Exactly, take the opportunity to kill Ye Chen!"

"Ye Chen has already shown us his intent to kill, having slain dozens. He will not let this go. We should take this chance to strike and annihilate him—that is the just path."

"Tianqi Empire, Soaring Dragon Empire, Jiuhua Empire, the Divine Lords from Martial God Temple will protect us—there’s no need to worry about offending Ye Chen. And the Divine Lords have already harbored the intention to kill Ye Chen. Even if we don’t get the Dao Blood, as long as we offer it to the Divine Lords, they will certainly be pleased and bestow generous rewards."

Those in the shadows continually provoked and incited, filling the strong with murderous intent toward Ye Chen.

This scene made Xia Teng and the others look even more solemn—Ye Chen’s situation had turned quite disadvantageous.

Boom—

Suddenly, a forceful fluctuation exploded, and a Trialist in the shadows burst without warning into a cloud of Blood Mist, not even having the chance to crush a Spirit Talisman for self-protection.

Everyone’s faces changed, and at this moment, Xia Yang approached with great strides, a fearsome aura emanating from him, terrifying quite a few Trialists. Xia Yang surveyed the strong with a cold gaze, the Divine Spear pointed outward, and he declared icily, "I’d like to see who dares to make a move; I’ll kill him right away."

With the arrival of Xia Yang, although he wasn’t as supremely invincible as Ye Chen, he was still a formidable and intractable figure, able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Martial God experts, potent and formidable, arousing the wariness of the strong.

However, some still took advantage of the chaos to make their move—a True Yuan struck across the sky, someone shouted, "Fellow Daoists, strike now! People like Ye Chen and Xia Yang are crazed and should not exist in this world. They must be taken down, to restore justice to the people, kill!"

One led the way, and others quickly followed suit. In an instant, dozens upon hundreds of True Essence Power attacks bombarded the area, shattering the heavens, rending the Ancient Hall apart, dust and smoke billowing.

This made Xia Yang change color, fully awakening the Divine Spear, Martial God Dao Power booming into life, reverberating thunderously, unleashing a dazzling, extraordinary beam of light, summoning a vast expanse of Heavenly Earth Power to explode and resist.

Otherwise, with so much True Essence Power falling on his body, even a real Martial God would be blasted apart, incapable of resistance.

But still unable to completely resist, a dozen or so strains of True Essence Power bombarded Xia Yang’s body, causing even a heavenly pride like Xia Yang to tremble violently, with a trace of bright blood leaking from the corner of his mouth, provoking worry.

He was not yet a true Martial God expert, only comparable to this realm of combat power, in truth, he was still somewhat lacking.

Thirteenth Prince, Vivian, Princess Hongs Rong, and the Golden Lion all struck out rapidly, but ultimately they were too weak alone, had not Xia Yang stepped forward, actively bearing the brunt of the True Essence Power, otherwise the bombardment of dozens, even hundreds of True Essence Power would certainly reduce the likes of Thirteenth Prince and others to ashes.

At the same time, the Demon Flood Dragon entangling the four great king-level super experts sensed Ye Chen’s crisis, letting out a roar of desperation, eager to return, but a powerful orb of light struck its massive demon body, blasting off more than a dozen Jiao Scales, and blood flowed freely.

At this moment, Yangg Shaoqi and others all sneered, no longer feeling the previous frustration, instead, they actively restrained the Demon Flood Dragon.

"You’re courting death!"

The Demon Flood Dragon roared, a breath of Ice emanated from it, instantly turning into a vast explosion of frost, the freezing cold light spread far and wide, covering the sky, and large swathes of trees turned into ice sculptures. Then, a gentle breeze blew them into a cloud of powder, scattering in the wind.

But the four king-level super experts all withstood the attack, continuously wielding Martial God Dao Soldiers, bombarding the Demon Flood Dragon, restraining the fearsome creature from returning to assist Ye Chen.

They all believed that the remaining three hundred-plus trialists were more than enough to kill Ye Chen, even if he were to awaken, and especially given Ye Chen’s current predicament, he only had a path to death.

As for Xia Yang, even if he was on par with a super expert of the same rank, at this stage, to blindly resist was nothing but a death wish.

They all sneered coldly, watching everything unfold from the sidelines with disinterest.

Boom—

A terrifying surge of Divine Power exploded, a vast brightness filled the area, and Xia Yang, who stood tall, could not help but retreat more than a dozen steps, each step he took discharged a terrifying force into the ground, leaving horrendous footprints and spreading spider-web-like cracks.

Even with such a force to dull the impact, after more than a dozen steps, he still couldn’t help but stagger, coughing up a mouthful of fresh blood, wounded.

The assault from the other side was too strong, with hundreds of trialists attacking at once, each one an Innate Cultivator, some of whom were even among the Top 100 Trial Participants above the Innate Fifth Realm. Caught in the midst, even a true Martial God would be blasted to death.

Xia Yang had nothing but to recklessly exert his Divine Power, sending out waves of Martial God Light, merely offsetting some of the True Essence attacks, otherwise, in such a state, how could Xia Yang have completely withstood it.

As for the Thirteenth Prince and others, they had completely lost the ability to resist. In such a level of collision, even Xia Yang was so injured; if they joined in, they would probably be completely obliterated on the spot.

Boom—

Another wave of True Essence Power strikes descended, this time with two to three hundred strands, as all the trialists chose to attack, with only Yangg Miaoxue choosing to watch from a distance, not intervening, nor assisting. She looked from afar at Ye Chen in the void, her eyes filled with complexity and struggle.

Although she felt that the actions of Xia Yang and others were futile, for some reason, she believed that Ye Chen would not be killed so easily.

This time Xia Yang’s expression changed completely, as such an attack was something even he could not withstand, but thinking of Ye Chen being there, and the favor owed from the other’s previous help in refining the Blood Pill, Xia Yang, who did not like being in debt to others, could only sigh helplessly. Flipping his palm over, the Blood Pill appeared and was swallowed directly; with a boom, the most terrifying surge of Blood Qi exploded within him.

Every part of his body was instantly filled with terrifying energy fluctuations, nearly bursting him apart, and even he found it difficult to bear. This was, after all, the essence of the Martial God Demon’s Blood Qi, and Xia Yang’s reckless consumption of it was incredibly dangerous.

But at that moment, a pale hand landed on his shoulder, as if bearing a colossal strength, immediately calming all the violent fluctuations within him.

Xia Yang knew who it was, revealing a rare wry smile, "You’ve finally awakened."

It was Ye Chen, stepping forward shoulder to shoulder with him, with a slight smile, "Leave the rest to me."

Xia Yang nodded, and then as Ye Chen took his place, he seemed so effortlessly calm, a Dao Treasure Vase appeared above his head, the mouth aimed at the adversaries, followed by an unprecedentedly terrifying Dao Wave explosion.
