Chapter 293: Chapter 261 Ye Chen Battles the War King! (Third Update)

Ye Chen appeared, he withstood Donghua Haoyi’s attack, dissipating it and causing many to be shocked.

This was a strike of a king, not a trifling blow, even the Five Great Ancient Heroes would be blown away by it, but a young man who suddenly emerged managed to withstand it, leaving them all extremely bewildered.

Who was this young man?

"Ye Chen, you’re here," said a few Ancient Heroes with wry smiles. If Ye Chen hadn’t come, they would all have been swept away by Donghua Haoyi before them.

The gap between them was simply too great; even when the five of them joined forces, they were no match for their opponent.

But they also felt Ye Chen’s terrifying nature, that he alone could withstand the opponent’s king-level strike.

"Who are you?" Donghua Haoyi’s expression turned serious for the first time. The fact that the other party had withstood his attack indicated some talent, not something ordinary people could achieve.

However, as soon as he saw the blazing light radiance on the other party’s body, he realized and said, "So that’s it, you’ve used a secret technique for enhancement—no wonder you could withstand it."

Indeed, Ye Chen had performed the Fighting God Seal, and at that moment, a powerful light radiance twinkled all over his body, his battle power skyrocketing as he gained the power of a higher realm; otherwise, how could he, with only the strength of Martial God Fourth Layer Heaven, combat Donghua Haoyi.

Ye Chen didn’t deny it, "My realm is still a bit low, otherwise, at the same realm as you, there would be no need for a secret technique to reach the limit; we could have a fair fight."

Arrogant!

Many shook their heads. How powerful Donghua Haoyi was, the unrivaled of his generation, reigning as a king amongst his peers—if not for Ye Chen’s reliance on a secret technique, where would the power for a fight come from?

Donghua Haoyi snorted coldly, "Quite a boastful talk. Do you really think you are a king?"

"King?" Ye Chen shook his head. In the eyes of many, they thought he was denying himself, but how could they know Ye Chen was far from a simple king.

But he did not explain, only saying, "I don’t wish to fight with you, I hope you don’t get in the way."

Donghua Haoyi snorted coldly, "Who do you think you are to offend me and think of leaving? Today, hand her over, and all of you kneel and apologize, then perhaps I can consider it."

These words caused a change in people’s expressions; kneeling to apologize was clearly an insult, unacceptable for them and could even affect their dedication to the Dao.

Yet some onlookers were advising, "Young friends, don’t hesitate anymore, just apologize quickly. You’re not his match, and if he decides to prevent you from leaving, no one will escape."

This was well-intentioned advice; Donghua Haoyi was far too powerful, unbeatable among the young generation within the Five Great Domains, outstanding and peerless.

Confronting him was not a wise thing to do, apologizing was the best choice, or even if Donghua Haoyi were to execute them, no one could say anything.

Ye Chen shook his head; how could he possibly kneel before him? It was impossible, demeaning to his dignity. Besides, individuals from the Combat Saint Lineage had never submitted to anyone—they did not respect heaven or earth, only themselves.

"Ye Chen, what are you trying to do?"

A few Ancient Heroes turned pale as they saw Ye Chen stepping forward; was he really intending to fight Donghua Haoyi alone? The opponent was too powerful; it was unrealistic.

They all knew Ye Chen’s strength; even with the empowerment of a secret technique, it was formidable enough to suppress them, but the opponent could also suppress them with absolute strength; moreover, the strength Donghua Haoyi had shown was too overwhelming, wishing for a fight was too much.

Ye Chen shook his head, "No need to worry, he can’t kill me. At most, we’ll both suffer."

His calm words contained immense confidence, causing a brief pause in those around—who was so audacious to say such a thing, truly believing himself to be a king?

Many shook their heads, thinking Ye Chen was insane. Facing Donghua Haoyi, an invincible king, brought too much pressure.

Even the close friends among the Ancient Heroes couldn’t help frowning; they deeply knew how truly terrifying Donghua Haoyi was—strong as they were, even joined together, they were not his match, clearly showing the difference.

Miao Han, the beautiful young girl, was staring at Ye Chen with her large, bright black eyes without blinking.

"Brave, but I hope you have the strength to back up your words," Donghua Haoyi said, stepping forward as he walked on the air.

Boom—

From his body, an overwhelmingly supreme Dao Power erupted, sweeping across the sky, and with each step he took, his aura became increasingly terrifying, making even the void tremble with fear.

Many changed their colors instantly; was this the strength of a young king? Merely the aura alone was enough to overwhelm many of the young generation.

The terrifying pressure was released in full force, like a tidal wave surging past, causing even the Five Great Ancient Heroes to change color.

Yet Ye Chen remained composed. Under the operation of the Fighting God Seal, he reached the absolute peak of this era, his aura incredibly powerful, and blossomed the most blazing radiance of the Dao.

Multiple layers of divine rings rose and added to his stature, as much as nine realms in all, making him seem like a Supreme God King descending into the world, with Immortal Energy flowing and Divine Power boundless.

The terrifying Dao Powers collided in the void with a crack, shaking the space of the Void Sky Domain and tearing open a massive spatial fissure, instantly causing many to change their expressions.

"King-level, another king-level!?"

The crowd was shocked. King-level power wasn’t just about reaching a high realm; it also meant being absolutely invincible within the same realm, that kind of pressure unbeatable.

Even though Ye Chen had used a Secret Technique to enhance himself, his aura was still limited to the Demigod Realm. Yet, he was also an Unrivaled King, likely no weaker than Donghua Haoyi.

The onlookers were astonished, and even Donghua Haoyi became serious, having met a young king whose might was not much less than his own. Where did he come from? There had been no word of such a young king in the Five Great Domains.

Despite using a Secret Technique, he understood that the other’s low realm was the only limitation. Once the realm was elevated to this stage, it would definitely be so, possessing king-level battle power.

A fighting desire ignited in his fiery eyes, as if flames of war were spreading and burning.

"What a king; I’ve never fought against one. Let’s see what your strength is like."

When Donghua Haoyi made his move, he swept out a flood of Divine Light, engulfing everything in its path. That was his most powerful strike, causing even the older generation to change color. It was a true display of king-level power and also a test of Ye Chen’s depth.

Ye Chen was indifferent, his expression unchanged by the commotion. He too unleashed a wave of Divine Light with a raise of his hand, submerging the surroundings and colliding.

The two waves of Divine Light clashed, exploding loudly, destroying large swathes of buildings in Huatian City, raising clouds of dust into the sky, startling countless people, attracting the attention of many in the city, with powerful Saints in the Floating Divine Palaces releasing their Divine Thoughts to observe the situation.

When everything had dissipated, both Donghua Haoyi and Ye Chen faced each other standstill, neither willing to retreat half a step, clearly finding an equal match, evenly matched.

"What a formidable person, no weaker than the young king of the Donghua Family."

All were exclaiming in surprise, but at that moment, both kings took action, unleashing a devastating collision that saw swathes of Dao Light Radiance spilling out, effortlessly annihilating the void. Everything turned to emptiness, stirring up the Eight Desolates, forcing those nearby to retreat immediately for fear of being caught in the fallout.

Boom, boom, boom—

The two kings clashed at close range, each a true king-level figure, unequaled and invincible amongst their contemporaries, facing off in a genuine colossal collision.

The entire sky trembled, and in just a blink of an eye, they collided dozens, if not hundreds of times, each confrontation intense, with annihilating Divine Light spreading and bursting, shattering the Heavenly Dome and piercing through the clouds.

That piece of void was directly smashed to collapse.

All the spectators retreated thousands of feet instantly, not daring to come too close due to the shockwaves of the collision easily destroying swathes of buildings in Huatian City. Those buildings interwoven with Dao Traces could barely withstand the onslaught and were obliterated into dust.

"So powerful, is this what a real king’s battle is? Truly unmatched in brilliance!"

The people of the world sighed in admiration. The Five Great Ancient Heroes were even more shocked because, at this moment, the strength Ye Chen displayed was this formidable, not a bit weaker than the king, Donghua Haoyi. Meeting an equal match, they were left in the dust.

They had a premonition that this might be the true extent of Ye Chen’s strength, and what was previously shown was merely restricted by his lower realm, otherwise, he would surely be several times stronger.

Crack—

The Heavenly Dome shattered. Donghua Haoyi, enshrouded in a hazy Divine Radiance, with an awe-inspiring presence, let out a long howl and spit out a divine seal. The seal featured a coiling Heavenly Dragon, radiating overwhelming Heavenly Might as it descended with crushing force.

"The Heavenly Dragon Seal, Donghua Haoyi has actually deployed the Donghua Family’s unparalleled Divine Arts! Even Divinity Transformation Experts would be crushed to death."

Some were astonished; the Heavenly Dragon Seal was among the Donghua Family’s extremely powerful Divine Arts, always sweeping and crushing all enemies, and now wielded by a young king, it was even more formidable. The dragon on the Heavenly Dragon Seal seemed to come alive, roaring towards the sky, its roar shaking the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Even some super experts in the Divinity Transformation Realm trembled with fear.

Donghua Haoyi, standing tall with open arms, held the Heavenly Dragon Seal above, pressing it down over the dome, covering the area and giving Ye Chen nowhere to hide, executing the ultimate suppression.

Ye Chen, encircled by a Nine-layered Divine Halo, was like transcending through mysterious Great Worlds, with a mist of Divine Radiance flowing around him, shielding his body as though he were a Supreme Immortal King on patrol, aloof and formidable, garnering the gaze of many.

He formed seals with his hands, unleashing the Mountain Embrace Seal. He lifted a Divine Mountain, then hurled it towards the Heavenly Dragon, causing a massive collision.
