Chapter 99: Chapter 89 Turmoil Descends! (6th Update)

"So, do you want another battle?"

Ye Chen provocatively looked at the Crown Prince. At this moment, the Crown Prince had fully unleashed all his strength, which was significantly stronger than before.

The terrifying aura that ascended between them was even comparable to that of the Martial God Realm, quite dreadful indeed, deserving of the title ’peerless.’

But at this moment, Ye Chen also released another powerful aura without showing any signs of weakness; he had broken through to the Innate Realm.

This breakthrough had occurred during the recent battle and was only the first level of the Innate Realm. Compared to the Crown Prince, who had stepped into the Innate Realm many years ago and was a high-level character, there was a significant gap in their realms.

However, let us not forget, Ye Chen’s primary cultivation was in his physical body, his Blood Qi was vigorous, and in his previous life, he mastered a secret technique that could integrate Blood Qi with Innate True Essence. At this moment, he had completely fused Blood Qi with Innate True Essence, turning the dazzling True Essence Power into a bloody hue, transforming into Blood Essence Power.

Furthermore, because of his sufficiently vigorous Blood Qi, the Blood Essence Power grew exponentially.

One could say that at this moment, Ye Chen’s Blood Essence Power could even match those of the high-level Innate characters. With a loud boom, it emerged as a tidal wave, tumultuously rolling and turning the void blood-red, with extremely strong energy fluctuations.

Even now, facing the Crown Prince, he was not the least bit weaker.

The crowd was shocked; both were indeed peerless geniuses that appeared once in a thousand years in Xiafeng Country, each had hidden their strength, and now they were finally willing to reveal it. Compared to other young powerhouses, they were simply incomparable.

The Crown Prince’s eyes instantly sharpened like needles, and he slowly exhaled before speaking solemnly, "Ye Chen, you really haven’t disappointed me, it turns out you also hid your strength."

"Mutual feelings."

Ye Chen softly responded, confronting him directly without showing weakness.

Yet, the Guu Yang Martial God furrowed his brow and shook his head, "Although you’ve obtained great power, this approach is not advisable."

"Indeed, Ye Chen is a rare genius, and to go to these lengths for a battle... it appears his temperament is still lacking," both Martial God Elders said solemnly.

"It’s fine, if things go south later, we’ll intervene," said one.

To them, although the Blood Essence Power was powerful, the enhancement of Blood Qi to True Essence Power also depleted his own Blood Qi. This was a double-edged sword, obtaining great power at the expense of his own Blood Qi, effectively squeezing out his life.

This approach was not advisable, a foolish act.

However, they did not know that for most people this might indeed be a double-edged sword, but for Ye Chen, it was purely an advantage. He possessed the Human Origin Body Technique, and at advanced levels, this could continuously generate Blood Qi, making the depletion irrelevant to him.

This was truly where Ye Chen’s strength lay.

Boom—

Boom—

Just when everyone thought that the two would engage in an even fiercer battle, the void was directly torn apart, and suddenly, two earth-shattering auras swept across, causing the void to tremble as if it would shatter.

Two figures emerged from it, one of them was a withered old man, half-stepped into the coffin, dressed in golden dragon robes; it was undoubtedly an Old Immortal of the Kingdom.

The other figure was lean, and although also an elder, he appeared much younger and more robust than the Kingdom Ancestor, with a scholarly aura. Seeing him, many of Xiafeng Academy’s elders and instructors hurriedly paid their respects. It turned out to be the Mansion Master of Xiafeng Academy.

With the appearance of these two, even the Guu Yang Martial God and the Martial God Realm Elders paid their respects, indicating the immense status of their identities.

The Kingdom Ancestor held a lofty status, possessing more authority than the current King and was reputed to be a being of the Heavenly Divine Realm, safeguarding the Kingdom’s safety.

The Mansion Master of Xiafeng Academy was equally a person of deep virtue and influence, not much less than the Kingdom Ancestor.

These two individuals were usually elusive, the very pinnacle of the pyramid, and unexpectedly they had both shown up, evoking awe in everyone present.

But neither of them paid attention to the others. The Kingdom Ancestor turned to the Crown Prince who, upon seeing the elder, dared not show arrogance and hurriedly performed the highest form of salute. The elder helped him rise and chuckled happily, devoid of any intimidation, "Very good, very good, what a Xia Yang you are! Truly worthy of being the Crown Prince of Xiafeng Country, to have produced the unprecedented Seven-colored Light Radiance. You are indeed the fortune and destiny of our Xiafeng Country."

Regarding Xia Yang, his talented descendant, how could he not cherish him? Being a candidate with divine qualifications and vast potential, he could someday surpass him. Should he indeed secure the Divine Position, he would lead the whole of Xiafeng Country to advance into the central part of the continent, occupying a vast and fertile territory, no longer confined to this tiny plot of land.

The head of Xiafeng Academy could not help but express his envy, "Old Man Xia, this generation of the royal family is truly extraordinary. To have produced a heavenly pride like Xia Yang, who initiated the Seven-colored Light Radiance for the first time in a millennium, certainly destined to be a great national fortune."

The Kingdom Ancestor did not shy away and burst into hearty laughter, filled with pride. The emergence of such a future Crown Prince would be a blessing for the nation.

Then their attention turned again to Ye Chen, equally astonished. A Crown Prince was one thing, but another prodigy like Ye Chen appearing immediately after was indeed a fortune for the country.

"Ye Chen, it’s you! I didn’t expect you to reemerge so impressively," the Kingdom Ancestor recalled the moment he saw Ye Chen—this once world-renowned prodigy from three years ago—and felt a wave of emotion.

The fallen prodigy had risen once again, and had journeyed further and become stronger than before.

The Mansion Master was similarly moved. In the presence of these two figures, before whom even the Martial Gods would bow respectfully, Ye Chen conducted himself with humility and decorum, offering a salute, which elevated him further in the eyes of the two old men.

Strength was important, but the temperament of a person was also crucial.

"You both have the potential to cause the Pillar of Power to emit Seven-colored Light Radiance and are candidates with divine qualifications. As long as nothing untoward happens, and with enough fortune, you could potentially reach the Divine Position that rules the fluctuations of the Sovereign Continent. We must not let personal grudges lead to casualties now, as that would be a great loss for Xiafeng Country," said the Kingdom Ancestor, advising the two.

The Mansion Master nodded in agreement; under no circumstances could they afford an accident with these two, as their potential was boundless and worthy of attaining the highest Divine Position.

Because of the intervention by these two Old Immortals, this summit battle among the younger generation had come to a temporary end, leaving many secretly regretting that it hadn’t continued, somewhat disappointed.

After all, this battle was said to be the climax of a millennium for the younger generation of the kingdom; ending it like this was a pity.

"Xia Yang, from now on, follow me for your cultivation. I will solve any problems you encounter in your training," the Kingdom Ancestor directly stated, letting the Crown Prince follow him in his cultivation practices.

Such a rare gem was filled with immense hope. He intended to keep him close for personal guidance, aiming to impart his experience of reaching the Heavenly Divine Realm, to at least ease Xia Yang’s path there. But whether he could reach the Divine Position would ultimately depend on Xia Yang’s own fate; there was nothing he could do about it.

"Thank you, ancestor!" Xia Yang bowed. Naturally, he wouldn’t refuse; to be guided in cultivation by the Kingdom Ancestor was a coveted opportunity even the King desired.

Next, the Kingdom Ancestor turned to Ye Chen, smiling warmly, "Young friend Ye Chen, would you be interested in following me and training alongside Xia Yang?"

"Old Man Xia, you already have Xia Yang in the royal family, now you want another one? Don’t even think about it," the Lord of Xia Feng intervened, similarly smiling as he spoke to Ye Chen, "Young friend Ye Chen, seeing as Xia Yang has the guidance of the Kingdom Ancestor, why don’t you consider training under me? It would surely not be much different from Xia Yang’s. And, a one-on-one guidance will be much more efficient than splitting attention between two, what do you think?"

The surrounding students and even those in the Martial God Realm envied them; both were genuine Heavenly Divine Realm existences. To receive training from them was a true inheritance of the Heavenly Dao, offering a shorter path on the cultivation journey, and was the most precious of opportunities.

But only these two had the standing to receive such an opportunity, while others could only long for it from afar.

"I appreciate your kind thoughts, elder, but my Master will personally guide me, no need to trouble you,"

Ye Chen chose to refuse, surprising many—this was an invitation from a Heavenly Divine Realm existence humbly extended and yet rejected, incredible; why wouldn’t such an incredible opportunity fall to them?

The Mansion Master was stunned, never expecting his invitation to be turned down, the first time ever, considering who he was, a being of the Heavenly Divine Realm, even Martial God Realm figures hoped for his casual guidance, and yet this young man had rejected it, truly beyond his expectations.

However, hearing that the young man had a master, he couldn’t resist asking, "May I know who your master is—"

Before he could finish his sentence, suddenly a loud bell rang out across the Royal Capital, a thunderous voice spreading, covering the entire capital—

"Not good, news from Demon Suppression City, the Demon Beast Mountain Range has started to stir into chaos!"

The most dreadful uprising of demon beasts, had descended!
