Chapter 207: Chapter 188: Suppressing the 15th Gate Master

Before entering the mysterious land from the Great Desert of thousands of miles, nearly four hundred trialists had grouped up, almost all of them were annihilated, including members of the royal family such as princes and princesses, with only a few escaping unscathed, which completely shook the Trial Road, causing a massive panic.

This was an unprecedented massive event, involving hundreds of trialists, a considerably large number, accounting for nearly half of the entire population base of the Trial Road, all of whom were true elite disciples, each at least of the Innate Realm.

Even included among them were twenty to thirty top hundred powerful trialists, as well as all the princes and princesses from the three great empires, but except for a few Crownless King super experts and the Sixth Princess Yang Miaoxue of the Tianqi Empire, who had an ambiguous relationship with Ye Chen, and a few others from Xiafeng Country, all were wiped out, everyone slaughtered.

It was said that in that Divine Little World, blood dyed every corner red, corpses littered the land, and many trialists’ bones turned to ash, leaving nothing behind, a scene of unprecedented bloodshed.

This was the most severe incident that had occurred since the opening of the Trial Road, with hundreds of elite trialists being slaughtered. It was foreseeable that if this news were to spread throughout the Tiandu Continent, it would cause a huge uproar, affecting the entire continent.

The news was spread by several Crownless King super experts who had fled, the protagonist of this severe massacre pointed recently to the spotlight figure of the Trial Road—

The Crownless King, Ye Chen!

According to the messages spread while they fled, Ye Chen transformed into the Great Demon King, disregarding everyone’s pleas for mercy, employing unprecedented bloody methods to slaughter hundreds of powerful trialists, even proclaiming his desire to bloodily slaughter the entire Trial Road and soak the Ancient Road in the blood of the Tiandu Continent’s trialists.

Momentarily, this caused tremendous panic among many trialists on the Trial Road, with many seeking immediate refuge in the major fortresses, seeking protection from the various Gate Masters.

One by one, the Gate Masters were alarmed, even the Supreme Elder stationed on the Trial Road was disturbed, as such a massacre, if proven true, would have unforeseeable and vastly impactful consequences.

Yet, they were also skeptical, as the slaughter involved too many major forces, leading them to question its authenticity, suspecting that it was a slander against Ye Chen by the young talents from the Four Great Super Forces.

After all, Ye Chen was a true young king, unparalleled in his generation, sweeping through his peers unbeatable, even the Crownless King super experts should not be his match, which was their reason to eliminate the biggest threat, causing the Gate Masters to hesitate in making a judgment quickly.

The four super experts sought protection from these Gate Masters and the Supreme Elder, but were all met with refusals, as the Trial Road ultimately served as a trial for the younger generation and had nothing to do with them; interference would compromise its fairness.

Knowing this, the four super experts internally cursed these people as pedantic, but helpless, they hurriedly rushed towards the 15th Pass, for once through the 15th Pass, the endpoint was in sight, where powerhouses of various major forces would arrive to escort the strong back to the Tiandu Continent.

Boom—

In the 15th Town, between the 14th and 15th passes, the four super experts passed through non-stop, but soon after they left, an unprecedentedly strong aura approached from behind, rolling in, alarming all trialists and the Gate Master in the fortress, rising into the air.

From afar, a surge of golden light swiftly approached, chasing the stars and the moon as it rushed by, its massive fluctuations shaking the heavens and the earth, unprecedented and powerful enough to change one’s expression.

All trialists in the entire 15th Town were shocked, their minds terrified, wondering if Ye Chen truly intended to slaughter all trialists on the Trial Road as rumored.

The Martial God Realm Gate Master present changed color immediately; he saw an overly youthful figure approaching from afar, treading on the void like a divine being, the entire vacuum trembling, feeling much stronger than ordinary Martial God experts.

"Is this really just a trialist? So overwhelmingly powerful, why even participate in the Trial Road, even the highest-spec Heavenly Level Academy in the Tiandu Academy would have to unconditionally accept him."

The young man approached, bathed in endless golden light, rapidly arriving like lightning, appearing above the 15th Town, where the 15th Pass Master appeared to block his way, saying, "No matter who you are, this is the 15th Town, and every trialist here must pass by orderly and stay for three days, otherwise, they cannot pass."

This was his way of buying time for the four people; Ye Chen was too terrifying, and if not stopped, he would certainly catch up and kill them.

For he came from the Jiuhua Empire, not a direct descendant of the current king but someone from an elder prince’s lineage, yet his cultivation talent was also remarkable, currently reached the Martial God Realm, and had joined the Tiandu Academy, selected to be a Pass Master.

When Li Cheng, who had fled here, recognized his identity and after calming down, made a significant promise; as long as he could hold back Ye Chen to let them successfully reach the endpoint, once he became influential in the future, he would surely bring his lineage back into the royal family for major positions of power.

It was because of this condition that the 15th Pass Master agreed to restrain, and he firmly believed that Ye Chen, even as daring as he was, would not dare provoke the authority of the Tiandu Academy or strike at him, a Pass Master.

Just a pity, perhaps he had forgotten, from an earlier period, how Ye Chen had forced several Pass Masters to leave, otherwise, he probably would not have agreed to this condition.

Unfortunately, there were no ifs.

Meanwhile, all trialists in the fortress could not help but want to curse at this Pass Master—was his brain kicked by a donkey? Did he forget what the four super experts had said when they left? Rumors say Ye Chen wants to slaughter all trialists on the Trial Road, and they’d rather he just leave, yet you dare to ask him to stay, looking for death on purpose, aren’t you?

Ye Chen indeed stopped, but instead of retracting his aura, it became even more terrifying. His divine power swept across the lands of the Heavenly Universe, and hundreds of trialists in the 15th town felt an immense pressure and looked at Ye Chen in horror, filled with bitterness.

Could the rumors be true? Was Ye Chen going to blood-wash the Trial Road?

The 15th Pass Master was furious, feeling his dignity challenged, and shouted fiercely, "Ye Chen, are you trying to challenge the Pass Master’s authority? I warn you, you had better stop, or else I will expel you from the Trial Road."

Still, many felt pity for this Pass Master, daring to reprimand Ye Chen. Did he not know how many Pass Masters had been so disgraced and forced to leave the Trial Road?

"Do I take it that you’re threatening me?" Ye Chen said expressionlessly, yet anyone could hear the iciness in his words.

Many started praying, not wanting Ye Chen to actually make a move, as the result would be terrifying.

"Ye Chen, considering you are a young genius of this generation, do not provoke the authority of us Pass Masters, which is akin to provoking the authority of the Tiandu Academy. Quickly restrain your aura, or do not blame me for suppressing you," the 15th Pass Master shouted loudly.

"Suppress me?" Ye Chen laughed, but there was a chill in his voice, "You must be from the Jiuhua Empire, no wonder the aura is so familiar. Since you insist on protecting those four, I will not waste more words. I know you won’t step aside, but I will make my way through."

"You will make your way through?" The 15th Pass Master sneered, "Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just pass?"

Boom—

Ye Chen chose to act immediately, without wasting words. He made the Mountain Embrace Seal, unleashing a golden mountain that he hurled at the 15th Pass Master.

The 15th Pass Master’s face changed, realizing the gravity of the situation. He shouted, summoning Heavenly Earth Power for defense and continuously striking, temporarily holding the golden mountain, trying to crush it.

But the next moment, Ye Chen was already close at hand. His palm turned into golden glass, and with a forceful smack, the void trembled violently as the golden mountain broke the blockade and directly struck the 15th Pass Master, causing him to cough up blood and sending him flying along with the mountain, scattering blood in swathes, a sight both striking and alarming.

This scene made others’ scalp tingle. It was just a single palm and a mountain, and yet he had defeated a Martial God so quickly. How had Ye Chen become so terrifying?

The 15th Pass Master kept coughing up blood, watching Ye Chen in horror. How could this young man be so powerful? He was no longer just stepping into the Martial God Realm. Standing in the Second Layer Heaven, he was considered decent, but still no match for Ye Chen. How could this be?

To this, Ye Chen sneered coldly. Although he only had a vague concept of his true combat ability, since achieving Great Success with the Human Origin Body Technique, he could match a Martial God. But he wasn’t just any Martial God, because Body Refiners were generally more powerful than Cultivators, their formidable physical bodies making Cultivators wary.

If one really had to describe how powerful Ye Chen was, he was not merely a Martial God of the First or Second Layer Heaven. He estimated he could match a Martial God of the Third Layer Heaven, and in close combat, perhaps even compare to a Fourth Layer Heaven Martial God.

Of course, this was all theoretical. Only true combat power could demonstrate his strength.

But undoubtedly, he had such strength to suppress a Second Layer Heaven Martial God.

Ye Chen walked past the 15th Pass Master with a nonchalant air, not even sparing him another glance, making the 15th Pass Master feel humiliated, as if insulted, seething with anger.

"Brat, die!"

Despite knowing he was no match for Ye Chen, he couldn’t help shouting furiously and continued to attack, his blood qi surging, Divine Power roaring, and a Divine Sword shining brilliantly, stabbing toward Ye Chen’s vital spot at his back.

"Scram!"

Ye Chen shouted coldly, his black hair exploding, his fingers and palms glowing with brilliant golden light, like a Heavenly Stele bursting forth.

With just this one strike, the 15th Pass Master was instantly swept away, like a kite with a broken string. He flew backward, coughing up blood, his body like porcelain showing numerous cracks, blood seeping out, looking utterly miserable.

The 15th Pass Master was defeated, unable to block Ye Chen’s path. He seemed like a Demon Lord moving through the skies, unstoppable.

"If there’s a next time, I will surely take your life."

Ye Chen shouted grimly, and with another slap, he sent him flying, his body crackling, not knowing how many bones shattered, severely injured and bleeding continuously.

Clearly, the 15th Pass Master was either dead or crippled.
