Chapter 210: Chapter 191 King Slaughter Plan

Below the Heroic Pass, one figure after another appeared, all of them Trialists, among whom were not a few of the Top 100 Trial Participants, concentrating more than forty of them here, with even more Trialists behind them. The multitude, numbering at least over five hundred, blocked the way of the three high-level masters.

"What do you think you’re doing? Get out of the way," the three high-level masters shouted anxiously. At this point, they could not care for anything else and did not understand why these Trialists were not afraid of their identities. The Martial God Dao Soldiers directly initiated their attack, sending terrifying fluctuations rippling out, attacking the elite contenders and attempting to carve a bloody path through them.

"Attack!" one of the elite contenders commanded loudly, launching an assault with a hundred streams of True Essence Power, which blasted the three resurrected Martial God Dao Soldiers away, dissipating their Divine Power, unable to recover again.

The three high-level masters were even more ragged, coughing blood as they were blown backward, suffering severe injuries. But they looked on with even more shock and rage, wondering why these people dared to block their path. Could it be that they truly did not fear offending the overwhelming forces of the Martial God Temples belonging to the Three Great Empires?

At that moment, a beautiful woman of transcendental beauty stepped forward—Hai Qingxue—but she appeared expressionless as she said, "The three of you, if you wish to pass through the final Heroic Pass, please hand over all the Identity Tokens on you. Otherwise, don’t blame us for blocking your passage."

"..."

This was outright robbery, wasn’t it? The faces of the three high-level masters reddened with anger. When had they ever been reduced to such a pitiful state—to the extent that even these nobodies, who were no better than dogs or cats in their eyes, now dared to do this? Insurrection, indeed.

"You are courting death. Once we reach the summit, none of you will escape; each and every one of you will be held accountable!" the three high-level masters roared threats. But without a choice, they had to strike again. However, perhaps the Trialists had been threatened by the three, their attacks became even more terrifying. They launched a barrage of True Essence Power, blasting the three high-level masters continuously into coughing blood—a rather pitiable sight—and even evoking a murderous intent due to the danger.

Long Tenghua nearly wanted to howl in grief at the heavens; when had they ever fallen to such a plight?

"Do you truly not fear opposing the Three Great Empires and the Martial God Temple?" Even at this stage, Yang Shaoqi did not forget to continue threatening loudly, hoping to intimidate these people into retreat.

"I’m sorry, we are compelled and have no choice," said Hai Qingxue.

But these people, one after another, bore expressionless faces; was it really that simple, that they were just compelled?

The several high-level masters roared angrily, swinging their Martial God Dao Soldiers, attempting to kill some to bloody deter the rest, but obviously the other side had more people, and plenty of Top 100 Trial Participants as well. They kept striking, blocking the path of the high-level masters, making them nearly fall into despair.

Ye Chen spoke coldly, "I apologize, but these people have been threatened by me. I took away their Identity Tokens, and I promised them that as long as they restrain you, they would get their Identity Tokens back, and every one of them would get the fifty points necessary for passing the trial."

Earlier, at the Eighth Pass, Ye Chen had mentioned the King Slaughter plan to Hai Qingxue and others. The goal was to eliminate those so-called Crownless Super Experts. While it seemed crazy at the time, it was agreed upon.

At the Twelfth Pass, he likewise gathered many of the Top 100 Trial Participants and announced the plan. In order to get them to agree, he promised enough Identity Tokens for each of them and placed all the responsibility on himself. He claimed that he alone had taken everyone’s Identity Tokens, compelling them to act this way.

And he let them gather many Trialists to block the path of the four high-level masters. It was for this reason that so many Trialists agreed.

Perhaps even more Trialists agreed due to the long-term oppression of the Super Forces.

Naturally, with Ye Chen’s strength, there was no need to gather the Trialists; he alone was more than capable of executing the King Slaughter plan. But his goal was not merely to slaughtering kings; he also wanted to humiliate these Crownless Super Experts, sending a clear message to the Super Forces that when the Tianqi Empire once dared to lead a chase to hunt down individuals from Xiafeng Country, Ye Chen could lead even more people to execute a King Slaughter, proving that not all participants from the Super Forces were formidable.

The three high-level masters were filled with rage. They had not expected to fall at the final hurdle. Unable to contain themselves, they let out a long roar, calling for the appearance of the Super Forces’ experts inside the Heroic Pass to come to their aid.

Boom——

A series of tremendous auras appeared swiftly. They belonged to powerful Heavenly Gods, whose awe-inspiring presence and Blood Qi pierced through the skies. One after another, supremely strong auras appeared in the void, causing the entire majestic and vast final Great Pass to tremble.

All the Trialists were stunned; were they actually going to break through the Trial Road?

"You young ones, do you all wish to court death and have your entire forces and sects annihilate? How dare you besiege princes and young heavenly prides from our Four Great Super Forces? One day, when we reign supreme over the world, we will retaliate against each one of you!"

Upon witnessing this scene, their demeanors darkened, and the Heavenly Gods from the Four Great Super Forces were enraged, bellowing loudly, shaking the Heroic Pass and scattering the clouds at the sky’s edge.

Especially the Heavenly God powerhouse from the Tianqi Empire, who upon seeing Yang Shaoqi’s pathetic state with one hand severed, was red-eyed with fury. Roaring and howling, his Divine Power surged heavenward, ready to rend the Heroic Pass apart and descend upon the mortal world.

However, at that moment, a layer of the Supreme Dao Rules descended, with a Heavenly Curtain appearing and separating the Heroic Pass from the Great Desert, as if dividing two realms. Even the mighty Heavenly Gods were unable to shake it.

These were the rules of the Trial Road, forbidding anyone beyond the younger generation from appearing on it so as not to break the rules. Only the powerful from Tiandu Academy had special talismans allowing them entry.

Seeing the immovable Heavenly Curtain, the Heavenly God barked, "Boy, let go of my Empire’s prince immediately!"

Ye Chen, with his demeanor still as calm as ever, continued to hold Yang Shaoqi by the neck, facing the Heavenly God and said, "Are you threatening me?"

The Heavenly God’s expression darkened as he coldly stated, "Boy, if you dare not release him, you’ll make an enemy of the entire Tianqi Empire."

"To tell the truth, I am really scared." Despite his words, Ye Chen’s expression seemed anything but afraid and, with a swipe of his Hand Blade, he cut off Yang Shaoqi’s other arm with a crisp snick, blood spurting out.

Yang Shaoqi screamed in agony, unable to struggle free, even more, afraid to struggle, for if he were dropped from mid-air while his Cultivation was restrained, he would be left severely maimed even if he did not die.

Everyone was stunned. Ye Chen was truly mad to dare to strike in front of the emperor’s Heavenly God, truly audacious.

"Boy, if you have the guts, reach the end. I alone can kill you with just one hand!" The Heavenly God raged, his aura overwhelming, but the Heavenly Curtain separated him. As mighty as a Heavenly God was, they could not shake this layer of Heavenly Curtain, a barrier set by a Supreme Divine being, only movable by a true Divine.

Ye Chen sneered and naturally would not be so foolish as to reach the end only to allow the other to strike. He casually threw Yang Shaoqi onto a dune in the desolate desert and strode toward the other three experts, his golden radiance overflowing as he began to attack.

"Ye Chen, you can’t do this," yelled Long Tenghua and the others, their expressions fraught with terror, no longer possessing the poise of Crownless Kings and Super Experts as they began to flee.

But at Ye Chen’s behest, many Trialists bombarded them with cascades of True Yuan force, forcing them to return and leaving them helpless. More than anger, they were filled with terror, as Ye Chen was rapidly approaching and they were forced into battle.

Boom—

Although the battle appeared fierce, raising huge swathes of swirling dust and sand that blotted out the sun, the outcome was not in doubt, for the three Super Experts were no match for Ye Chen. Despite their having reached the Half-step Martial God level, having cultivated their Primordial Spirits, and even wielding Martial God Dao Soldiers that could contend with a Martial God, they were only at the Initial Stage of this realm and were no match for Ye Chen.

In a relatively short period, after only several dozen to a hundred exchanges, Ye Chen alone sent the Martial God Dao Soldiers flying, then suppressed the three Super Experts, causing them to spit blood profusely, with more than a dozen bones broken in their bodies and their minds and spirits severely traumatized.

This was likely the first time they had encountered someone as terrifying as Ye Chen.

Then, Ye Chen struck, sending them flying one by one, all rendered powerless, their Cultivation bound. Thus, the four high-ranking experts were all subdued by Ye Chen alone, no longer bearing their once proud presence, deeply shocking everyone present.

Because of Ye Chen’s supreme fighting power.

Amid the Heroic Pass, the Heavenly Gods of the Four Great Super Forces were left with more feelings of helplessness on top of their fury, for the Dao Barrier prevented them, unable to enter the Trial Road to aid their factions’ young heavenly prides, only able to watch helplessly as everything unfolded before their eyes.

They were filled with a desire to break the barrier, rush into the vast desert, and slay Ye Chen, the Young Great Demon King, to quell the boundless rage in their hearts.

"If four of you together cannot handle one man, and you still dare call yourselves Crownless Kings, you’re nothing but four wastes."

Atop the Heroic Pass, a disdainful sneer rang out, thunderous, shaking the entire pass. A formidable figure emerged, a valiant and handsome young man clad in golden Battle Armor.

He was very young, seeming to be just over twenty, yet his presence exuded world-shocking pressure, making the Heroic Pass tremble. Standing tall in the void, he looked down high above at Ye Chen in the distance, and said indifferently, "What Crownless King, to think an ignorant person would dare to claim kingship. Today, I shall suppress you."
