Chapter 198: Chapter 182: Gaining Dao Blood (3rd Update)

Thirty minutes had finally passed, and Ye Chen had endured many trials and tribulations. But at this moment, having gained recognition, it felt as if some mysterious power had been bestowed upon his heart.

Yet Ye Chen didn’t pay too much attention to it, as things were already set in stone; what he needed to deal with were the people in front of him.

With a casual flip of his hand, he stored the Dao Blood, Blood Armor, and Blood Sword into the space of the Ancient Ring. Compared to the space within his body, having Elder Yan’s protection made him feel more at ease.

Then, he stepped onto the void and ascended into the sky, his garments fluttering and black hair billowing in the wind. Though he was just a young man, an invincible aura of supreme overbearingness emerged, his elegance peerless.

Endless golden Blood Qi surged forth astonishingly. How could there be someone in the world with such a powerful and horrific Blood Qi? It was as if a volcano were erupting, the body like a furnace, unmatched in all the ages.

Boom! Boom! Boom!—

Without the need for spiritual pills or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, without needing anything at all, a mysterious Divine Skill was autonomously operating within him, booming and thundering. Sinews intertwined, Blood Qi roared, and injuries rapidly mended; flesh was swiftly restored, blood flowed backward, and in just a brief moment, he was fully healed. Such a terrifying speed of recovery trembled the hearts of onlookers.

It was too fast. Even with Divine Pills, it couldn’t be this frightening.

But all this was nothing to Ye Chen. In his previous life, he was a Supreme, cultivating all sorts of Supreme Divine Techniques, and he had collected numerous Supreme Divine Powers from great figures of past and present. He possessed not one but two of the very top High-level Secret Techniques for healing.

One was a secret technique exclusive to the Combat Saint Body, and the other was the Supreme Divine Technique created by the former owner of the Human Emperor Tower, the Human King—God King Revival Technique.

The Human King was dazzling throughout the ages, once hailed as the most likely to achieve the position of the Supreme Human Emperor, with Cultivation reaching frightening levels, far surpassing the Divine by countless folds. He could shatter the Eternal Starry Sky with a raise of his hand, peer through the ancient and future with his gaze, acclaimed as a Great Power of his generation, once among the most powerful beings in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.

Each Divine Art he created was absolutely breathtaking within the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, almost ranking at the highest echelons.

The God King Revival Technique was one of them, proclaimed to bring about rebirth from just a drop of blood unless the Primordial Spirit True Spirit was completely annihilated.

Naturally, Ye Chen was far from achieving that step at present, but to heal his physical body was effortless. The Secret Technique’s profound meanings were imbued within his body, invisible to outsiders, who only saw a radiance overflowing from him and his injuries rapidly healing.

This was to prevent Fairy Caiyun from seeing the truth; Ye Chen intentionally concealed everything because this woman was very likely from beyond the Tiandu Continent, from the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, perhaps even someone he had known in his previous life.

All these were mere speculations, with no concrete evidence, but that was sufficient; his intuition was always remarkably accurate.

The white-haired Divine on the Heavenly Dome above, whose gaze fell upon Ye Chen, also felt the powerful surge of Blood Qi for healing. He was astonished, and also surprised that Ye Chen possessed such a Healing Secret Technique.

Such a Healing Secret Technique must be a High-level Secret Technique, even he was shocked by it. Looking out over the vast and boundless Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, only an extremely tiny portion of people would be qualified to master it.

How did this young man come into possession of such a Supreme Secret Technique?

In all likelihood, there was not any creature capable of creating it within this sealed space.

On the other hand, Fairy Caiyun was also furrowing her brow. This terrifying Healing Secret Technique was unexpected, and she hadn’t thought that Ye Chen would have mastered it.

His origins became more and more puzzling and thought-provoking.

Inside the Ancient Ring, Elder Yan had naturally sensed this horrifying healing power and recognized it, saying in surprise, "Little Chenzi, you actually know the Supreme Secret Technique of the Human King."

The Human King dazzled the heavens, hailed as one of the most dazzling Heavenly Pride figures of ancient and future alike, reputed to be the most likely to achieve the position of Human Emperor during that era. Elder Yan was naturally aware of this.

However, the Human King disappeared afterward, completely vanishing from the annals of the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms. It was rumored he left Ten Thousand Domains and ventured into the Lower Realm, with no further word, his exclusive Divine Arts thought to have lost their lineages. Yet, to Elder Yan’s astonishment, he was witnessing these Divine Arts in the hands of Ye Chen once again.

As for the matter of the Human King, Ye Chen had always kept it secret, not even sharing it with Elder Yan, nor did he know about the Human Emperor Tower. He merely thought the little tower seal on Ye Chen’s body was a birthmark.

Ye Chen transmitted a message: "Elder Yan, we’ll talk about this later."

"Alright!" Elder Yan replied.

Ye Chen held a Heavenly Divine Spear in his hand, the surging golden Blood Essence infused into it, instantly reviving and overflowing with astonishing Heavenly Divine Power. Moreover, thick silver thunder roared and flashed about, shaking the entire Divine Little World and causing everyone to look towards this direction with a sense of horror.

"Heavenly Divine Weapon!"

Everyone’s color drained from their faces. Ye Chen had actually brought out a Heavenly God Dao Soldier—did he truly intend to massacre all the trialists present?

This made many people panic. Ye Chen was already frighteningly powerful, and now that he had taken out a Heavenly God Dao Soldier, wasn’t this clearly sending people to their deaths?

The four slow-to-react king-level powerhouses were even more terrified because Ye Chen was finally using his true foundation.

That was a Heavenly God Dao Soldier, not an ordinary Martial God Dao Soldier. Fully revived, it could rival a Heavenly God powerhouse, and now in the hands of a terrifying young king, it was absolutely unstoppable.

However, Ye Chen seemed to be aiming only at Fairy Caiyun. The Heavenly God Dao Power continued to revive, surging skyward.

Meanwhile, Fairy Caiyun confronted him with the Phoenix Gilded Staff in hand, with endless crimson Divine Radiance emerging as well. The two stood off against each other, and the terrifying fluctuations continuously rumbled, shaking mountains and valleys.

Crack—

The Ancient Hall had finally been unable to withstand any longer, and a huge crack appeared in the middle, torn open by the Dao Power.

Ye Chen, I have to admit, you’re really quite remarkable. At least in this world, you’re second to none. It’s just a shame about your talent. If you had left this..."

Fairy Caiyun sighed in admiration, genuinely amazed by Ye Chen’s strength, but as she spoke, she seemed to be holding back, pausing before she said, "Though Dao Blood is precious, it is not without things more valuable. I will not contend with you this time. But remember the laws of causality in the world, what goes around comes around, and one day you will repay this outcome."

After saying something enigmatic, Fairy Caiyun gave Ye Chen a deep look, turned, and left, no longer confronting him, causing many to breathe a sigh of relief.

They had worried that a battle between Ye Chen and Fairy Caiyun would have widespread consequences, with them being directly slain by the aftershocks, which would be truly unjust.

Now, Fairy Caiyun’s voluntary retreat was the best outcome.

"Want to leave? Do you think it’s that easy?" Ye Chen’s mouth curled into a cold smile, his Qi Mechanism pressing forward assertively. The events just now would not end so easily; part of his Heavenly Divine Spear had already revived, pointing at Fairy Caiyun, readying for the lethal strike at any moment.

Fairy Caiyun turned her head, her aura no weaker than Ye Chen’s, and her voice turned icy, "Ye Chen, what is this supposed to mean? Do you really want to fight to the death?"

"What does it mean? It means I want to kill you," Ye Chen replied coldly, his black hair dancing wildly as if dragons were rampaging, terrifying to the extreme.

"Ye Chen, don’t overstep your bounds. I just didn’t want to kill you, that’s all. Do you truly wish to die?" Fairy Caiyun’s voice chilled further, "Though you are strong, you are limited to this realm. Remember that there are heavens beyond this heaven, and there are people beyond this world. I could kill you, but the cost I would have to pay is unacceptable. But if you really target me, even just paying the corresponding price, I will kill you."

The Phoenix Gilded Staff emitted a burst of crimson Divine Radiance, on the verge of a battle.

Yet Ye Chen remained silent, continuing to focus, and his whole body’s Qi Mechanism grew more terrifying as time passed. Clearly, he was at a critical point, ready to engage in battle and fearing no fight.

Fairy Caiyun’s eyes were cold as ice, yet also colored with reluctance, for this adversary was too difficult to deal with. She truly didn’t want to kill Ye Chen until it was absolutely necessary, as the cost would be too great and disadvantageous for her later plans.

Everyone tensed up. Would the prior concessions lead to battle once again?

In the end, Fairy Caiyun had to concede, sending out seven Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as compensation for the injury to Ye Chen, and he reigned in the Heavenly Divine Spear, no longer threatening Fairy Caiyun.

But Fairy Caiyun left behind a thought-provoking statement: "Ye Chen, today’s events have only increased our karma. But you should know that one day, it may be repaid tenfold."

"I’ll be waiting," Ye Chen said indifferently.

Fairy Caiyun moved her Phoenix Gilded Staff and directly shattered the void to leave this Divine Little World.

And in that moment, Ye Chen’s face suddenly turned pale, and he coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, staining the corner of his mouth.

He was injured!
