Chapter 215: Chapter 195: The Massacre Incident

Boom, boom, boom—

Ye Chen continuously attacked and took on Yangg Shaoqi, Li Cheng, Wu Han, and Long Teng, amongst other super experts on the Trial Road, stripping them each of a significant volume of pure Primordial Energy.

Each of them lost four realms of Cultivation, falling to the level of the Top 100 Trial Participants.

It was undoubtedly a severe blow to them, almost unimaginable due to its magnitude.

Especially when it occurred in front of almost all the Trialists, the impact was beyond belief, as if they were slapped in the face in front of everyone.

Even worse were the four Heavenly Gods above the Heroic Pass, all fuming with rage. Their Divine Power pressured the heavens and earth as if they wanted to annihilate the world, staring at Ye Chen with cold, furious eyes filled with endless killing intent.

If not for the Dao Barrier in place, they would have descended immediately to this location and killed Ye Chen, splattering his blood five feet around.

Yet, Ye Chen couldn’t care less about them. Opening his mouth, he directly swallowed the four men’s Primordial Energy, and through repeated refinement of the Human Origin Body Technique and burning off the dross, he transformed it into his own Primordial Energy.

Unquestionably, Ye Chen’s Cultivation of True Yuan steadily soared. Initially at just the Innate Fifth Level, after devouring the Cultivation and Primordial Energy of the four, he rapidly ascended, reaching the realm of the Innate Ninth Layer.

This ascent was undoubtedly thrilling, as the speed of the increase was faster than ever before, jumping four levels in an instant, something unimaginable on ordinary days.

However, Ye Chen slightly furrowed his brows, apparently not overjoyed by such a degree of increase. Ultimately, although the Innate Ninth Layer was strong, it was feeble compared to his extremely powerful Physical Cultivation.

Moreover, the four were at the Half-step Martial God realm, and after annihilating their strongest four realms of Divine Power, he could only just reach the Ninth Layer, not even a complete Half-step Martial God, making him frown deeply.

But the thunderous Divine Power surging like a flood through his body made him realize that the energy he could contain was bound to surpass that of others, as the Human Origin Golden Body made his Dantian extraordinarily spacious.

Where regular people’s meridians were mere streams, his could be described as rivers, immeasurably broader.

The broader the meridians, the more immense the Divine Power they could hold in the future, much stronger than those of ordinary Cultivators.

Ye Chen did not kill the four, merely tossing them onto the ground like trash. After stripping their Primordial Energy, he ignored them, sitting cross-legged in the void, closing his eyes to meditate.

This inflicted immense humiliation on the four; they had never encountered such treatment before. They wanted to howl and attack in fury, but seeing Ye Chen’s terrifying, devil-like might, they felt powerless. He was a young supreme powerhouse capable of contending with ancient Heavenly Prides, not something they could contend with, especially not in their current state.

"Ah—"

The four let out a wretched scream and crazily rushed towards the Heroic Pass.

But hundreds of attacks of True Yuan Power came crashing down, driving them completely mad. They felt that even those they regarded as lowly now dared to strike them. It seemed suicidal.

"Do you all wish to be annihilated by our four great forces?"

Hai Qingxue expressionlessly said, "Sorry, we are compelled by Ye Chen. Please hand over all your Identity Tokens voluntarily as we have no choice."

"You—"

"Can your current strength sweep us away?" Hai Qingxue added, causing the four much embarrassment. Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of testers, they could only grit their teeth and hand over all the Identity Tokens they possessed, each having more than five hundred, totaling over two thousand for the four.

With over three hundred attackers of the trial participants, each ended up with six or seven tokens.

This achievement was pleasant to contemplate, especially thinking about threatening the four super forces’ top champions. As for the consequences... all were shifted onto Ye Chen, as they felt no burden.

"Thank you, the four of you." Hai Qingxue smiled brightly, infuriating the four even more as they clenched their fists—these bastards...

"Everyone, this is my promise to you." Ye Chen opened his eyes, shaking his hand, and a rain-like number of Identity Tokens flew over, totaling around five or six thousand, covering a third of the entire Trial Road.

This left everyone dumbfounded, wondering how Ye Chen could have acquired so many.

The strong forces were puzzled, as the news from the Twelfth Pass hadn’t yet reached their ears that Ye Chen had slaughtered hundreds of trial participants, obtaining their Identity Tokens.

Thus, totaling over twenty identity tokens that the trialists had acquired, combined with the tokens they initially possessed, scoring two points per token, they had inevitably gathered the fifty points necessary to pass the trial, filling them with joy at having succeeded.

However, the four super experts hurriedly charged through the Heroic Pass, and with numerous trialists failing to stop them, the four Heavenly Gods took over, quickly inspecting them to ascertain apart from their reduced cultivation, they were all relatively unharmed. Only Yang Shaoqi had lost both his hands, which was a minor relief.

For cultivators, even severed limbs and damaged bodies could easily be restored with the resources from the Tianqi Empire.

Yet, Ye Chen’s actions had angered the Four Great Super Forces profoundly, necessitating retaliation to exemplify their inviolability and maintain the dignity that super forces should command.

After taking the pills, Yang Shaoqi swiftly recovered a fraction of his Primordial Energy and, casting a resentful glance at Ye Chen, said, "Divine Elder, I have something to report."

The Heavenly God shook his head and responded, "Whatever it is, it can wait until after your treatment."

"Elder, this is extremely important, capable of gathering the world’s forces to strike down this vile beast," insisted Yang Shaoqi, his face ghastly pale but his expression ferocious and his eyes flickering malevolently.

"Indeed, the Heavenly Divine Elders must be informed," Li Cheng also said.

"Oh, what is it exactly?" the Heavenly Divine Elders asked with piqued interest.

"Do the elders perhaps know of the mysterious Heaven and Earth hidden within the Twelfth Pass?" inquired Long Tenghua.

The elders looked puzzled by the sudden question but answered, "We are aware, it’s said to have once been famous due to a Supreme Divine there. Did you not enter it? Any discoveries?"

"No discoveries, and just recently when over four hundred trialists assembled in the Forbidden Army Divine’s Little World, only the four of us plus a few from Xiafeng Country managed to leave after all other trialists were massacred, staining the mountains and rivers with their blood. And the murderer is him—Ye Chen!" accused Wu Han, pointing toward Ye Chen standing in the wilderness.

Upon this proclamation, shock filled the air as everyone looked toward Ye Chen with disbelief at what they had heard.

He had single-handedly slaughtered hundreds of trialists, including true elites and notably some of the top 100 participants, along with princes and princesses from super forces, in a massive massacre.

Even the Divine Elders from the Martial God Temple were visibly shaken by the involvement of such significant implications, prompting a Heavenly Divine Elder from the Tiandu Academy to descend to the Heroic Pass, emanating supreme authority as he declared, "Wu Han, is this the truth? You must not speak falsehoods."

Since the matter had widespread ramifications, casual talk was inadvisable.

Hundreds of trialists, young prodigies of the world’s powers trained in outstanding talents, all brutally murdered would indeed shake the entire Tiandu Continent if word spread, causing unprecedented upheaval.

"Elder, this is the truth. We swear by the heavens, if there is even a slight falsehood, may we be struck dead by divine thunder," the four claimed resolutely.

Hearing this, the crowd darkened in demeanor, the four daring to swear such oaths which could not be taken lightly by Heaven, for terrible punishments could ensue, even for divine beings.

Yet at this moment, the Heavenly Gods from the four super forces glistened with cunning in their eyes upon learning another shocking piece of news, eyeing Ye Chen with greed.

For on him resided Dao Blood, surpassing that of Divine beings, being contained within the Dao Trace Divine Bottle.

"Fellow Daoist, please activate the Dao Barrier and enter the Trial Road to capture this child and interrogate him thoroughly!"

"Murdering hundreds of participants thus, such an act, is truly heinous and unforgivable. Please, Fellow Daoist, do not hesitate, even the Supreme Old Mansion Master wouldn’t blame you."

The Heavenly Divine Elders persuaded one another, opening the Dao Barrier would leave Ye Chen only the path of death.

After brief contemplation, the Supreme Elder from the Tiandu Academy felt the gravity and decided that although the killing of one or even a few dozen trialists was normal and unavoidable, the slaughter of nearly a hundred participants live was a dreadful bloodbath that must be addressed, for it was greatly detrimental to the eternal reputation of the Tiandu Academy.

"Fine, I will activate the Dao Barrier myself and capture this child."

He agreed, taking out a talisman. Its Dao Patterns were shimmering, aligning with the fluctuations of the Dao Barrier, ready to cross it any time to descend upon the Trial Road.

Ye Chen opened his eyes, witnessing all this with an unchanged expression, while silently a token appeared in his hand—the Heavenly Slaying Alliance Leader Order!

Holding this Heavenly Slaying Alliance Leader Order, he believed he could withstand all storms.

Boom—

The Dao Barrier shone with the resplendent light of its runes, ready to open, with the Heavenly Divine Elders from the five super forces prepared, particularly the elders from the Three Great Empires and Martial God Temple, where Divine Power surged, as they were all intent on obtaining the incredibly precious Dao Blood from Ye Chen’s body.
