Chapter 365: Chapter 017: Strong Suppression!

"Now, everyone concentrate your spirits and clarify the domains of power carved out by the Four Desolate and Three Islands as well as their respective demands for the Five Great Prefectures."

"The collision between geniuses is about to begin."

"The omen of the Nine Origin Reincarnation has already appeared prematurely, but the threat from the Heavenly Emperor Universe is about to arrive."

"The war within is after all a conflict among our own people, even if it involves the hundred races from outside our domain, it is still a matter of the Nine Origin Universe.

If the Heavenly Emperor Universe intervenes, it becomes an external threat.

Once we fail, the Nine Origin Universe will be exhausted, and not one will survive."

"To achieve greater strength, there will certainly be more geniuses falling. If you don’t want to die, then become stronger and let others die!"

"One man’s success builds on the bones of thousands!"

...

Yao’s voice echoed bit by bit in everyone’s hearts.

Afterward, corresponding divisions of power between heaven and earth began to take shape in Zhou Yan’s mind.

After sensing carefully for a moment, Zhou Yan realized that the immensity of the Sword Burial Ancestor Star still exceeded his imagination.

With his ability, it would take two to three years to travel from the Southern Wilderness to the East Wasteland, even if he flew at the speed of Controlling Thunder Light!

And the East Wasteland was the closest to the Guang Han Hall of the Southern Wilderness.

This was a terrifying distance.

And this time, the Guanghan South Mansion, which brought together all the hidden geniuses of the Southern Wilderness who never revealed themselves, became a concentrated place of elites.

To stand out among them and become even stronger was unimaginably difficult.

Zhou Yan knew that the Holy Daughter made such a demand because she probably thought ’Zhou Yan’ was truly dead.

Otherwise, she would never have made such hysterical and high demands.

Maybe... she would really marry a peerless powerhouse, the foremost person in Guanghan South Mansion, and then give away her own Life Soul and all her cultivation, possibly even sacrificing her purity to make that person incredibly powerful and to help him, Zhou Yan, take revenge on the Evil King.

Zhou Yan almost immediately thought of this outcome, and his heart was a bit bitter.

He could feel that kind of madness stemming from the Holy Daughter because of him, as well as her intentions, as if there was a heart-to-heart connection.

For the same reason, when Zhou Yan looked at Guang Han Hall again, his gaze became extremely resolute.

Because he couldn’t bear to imagine his woman becoming another’s plaything one day!

"Even if I switch identities... wherever I, Zhou Yan, go, I am still the best! Ning’er, I will let you know, I have always been fighting for you all!"

After considering for a moment, Zhou Yan raised his head to drink a cup of liquor, left the Spirit Crystal money, and resolutely stood up, heading towards the main gate of the main hall of Guang Han Hall.

At this moment, many people also silently stood up and walked towards that Taoist gate.

...

"I am Ye Li, the Extreme Yang Sword Body rarely seen in ages, apart from the Four Great Sword Forms, an extremely powerful Sword Body, with Combat Power Breaking Five! Currently at the Second Transformation Sword Void Realm, most suitable to form a Daoist couple with the Holy Daughter!"

A cultivator in black robes walked toward the main hall of Guang Han Hall.

There, numerous Holy Daughters of the Holy Daughter’s lineage were present.

These divisonal Holy Daughters could only be considered as Law Enforcers here for the time being, but of course, they could also be members of Guanghan South Mansion.

Because each Holy Daughter had such strength.

"What? You... you are an Extreme Yang Sword Body?" Feng Yunyan, a Holy Daughter from Heavenly Mountain Prefecture, was startled at this moment.

Her exclamation drew the attention of some guardians.

"Extreme Yang Sword Body, with Combat Power Breaking Five, good, show us a bit."

Then another woman stepped forward, a very beautiful woman, and upon her appearance, the guardians here promptly made way for her.

"So, it’s the revered Snow Domain Lord Gongcheng Diewu. I have long admired your name."

The young man in black smiled proudly, yet spoke with elegance and poise.

"Not at all, right now Gongcheng Diewu is just a Law Enforcement Guardian of the Guanghan South Mansion, and after this is over, I’ll be just another ordinary student like everyone else."

Gongcheng Diewu replied very generously and appropriately.

"Guanghan South Mansion is indeed a good place."

The youth named Ye Li nodded thoughtfully and said no more.

He simply casually stoked his own momentum.

This momentum, like a fierce sun piercing the sky, caused the heavens and earth to change color in an instant, with thunder converging.

"What? Triggering a Heavenly Tribulation?"

"Actually... actually triggered the intent of Heavenly Tribulation, my God, what kind of monster is this!"

"I bet that Emperor Qi Sword Body can’t compare with him!"

"Emperor Qi Sword Body, after all, is dead, dead, what genius can he be? The dead are all wasted bodies!"

...

Several onlooking cultivators began to discuss among themselves.

This change attracted tens of thousands of onlookers.

"Emperor Qi Sword Body? Indeed, that is a top-quality Sword Body. But possessing such a Sword Body, if the person is too useless, they too will only face demise.

Before, it was simply because Ye Li had not revealed himself, otherwise, with just the intent of a Heavenly Tribulation, slaughtering him would be as easy as butchering a dog!"

Ye Li stood with his hands behind his back, utterly proud of himself.

Hearing this, Gongcheng Diewu and Feng Yunyan, who originally had a favorable impression of Ye Li, suddenly changed their expressions and quickly became much colder in attitude.

Ye Li sensed this and didn’t mind, instead, letting out a cold laugh.

"Well said!"

All of a sudden, a white-robed man came out from inside the hall, his words filled with admiration.

"It’s the Heavenly Spirit, Xiao Tianlun. With the Heavenly Spirit’s current combat strength, I’m afraid he’s nearly reaching six."

Although Ye Li was haughty, upon seeing this established True Spirit Level genius, he immediately showed some respect.

The white-robed man nodded calmly and said, "Just recently nearing six, but you also know that at the Life Tribulation Realm, combat strength is no longer key. Because to pass Life Tribulation, one must at least have the genius of Combat Power Breaking Three.

Thus, after Life Tribulation, only those who can overcome enemies across three realms are qualified to be proud. Reaching ’True Man Level’ after the Life Tribulation Realm is already extremely commendable."

"The Heavenly Spirit’s concerns are far-reaching, Ye Li is currently still troubled with the breakthrough from Second to Third Transformation Sword Void; I didn’t imagine that the Heavenly Spirit has already concerns about the Heavenly Sword Destiny Refinement Tribulation, incomparable indeed."

Ye Li’s heart stiffened, and he became even more reverent.

"You’re quite good. As part of Guanghan South Mansion, you can follow me. After I grow tired of the Holy Daughter, I don’t mind bestowing her to you for some amusement."

Xiao Tianlun merely gave Ye Li a cold glance and left after leaving such a statement, hands behind his back.

Ye Li’s face stiffened slightly, his expression fluctuating uncertainly, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he just slightly bowed towards Xiao Tianlun’s retreating figure, respectfully, without uttering another word.

...

"Next."

Feng Yunyan recorded Ye Li’s name and information before speaking in an ice-cold tone.

It wasn’t just her; even Gongcheng Diewu and all the Holy Daughter Guardians there had frosty expressions.

At that moment, within the crowd, no one stepped forward for some time.

This was solely because a cold Sword Intent was emanating within the crowd.

Then, a young man who was also dressed in black and was equally as young but with an oddly enchanting coldness and handsomeness, walked over.

He was clad in sharply contoured Combat Armor that almost entirely outlined his physical shape, so much so that the bulging muscles seemed somewhat terrifying and fierce.

Like a slumbering fierce beast, his presence exuded an indescribable might.

His cold and determined, profound eyes were deep, sharp, and supremely arrogant, as if he was above Heaven and Earth.

"My name is ’Zhou Yan,’ with Combat Power Breaking Six. I come from Thunder Flame Breaking Path Mountain."

Zhou Yan stepped forward and then reported his name.

"What? Zhou Yan? Combat Power Breaking Six? Thunder Flame Breaking Pill Mountain?!"

In that instant, the focus of everyone’s gaze converged on Zhou Yan.

Each piece of information was astonishing!

Combined, this man immediately became someone no one dared to underestimate!

However, as soon as those present realized that this Zhou Yan wasn’t the Emperor Qi Sword Body, they all unexplainably let out a sigh of relief.

At the same time, some cultivators also vaguely noticed that Zhou Yan’s realm was only at the peak of Sword Soul Triple Layer Heaven. Thus, despite the initial shock, a sense of instinctive disdain remained etched on their faces.

Without the Sword Soul Three Heavens, coming here was simply humiliating oneself.

Even if he was from Thunder Flame Breaking Path Mountain, what of it?

Even with Combat Power Breaking Six, he was only comparable to an ordinary cultivator in the Second Transformation Sword Void.

The Second Transformation Sword Void might be impressive elsewhere, but in this place, it really wasn’t exceptional.

"You... your name is also ’Zhou Yan’? Combat Power Breaking Six?"

Feng Yunyan’s voice trembled as she stared deeply at Zhou Yan, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"Mhm, I possess the ancient Constitution of Thunderflame Sword Body. Emperor Qi Sword Body Zhou Yan and I have some connection. I know him."

Zhou Yan nodded and offered a brief explanation.

His gaze was somewhat blinding, and with a pressing aura, Feng Yunyan dared not meet Zhou Yan’s look.

"Show us your performance. If it’s true, you can pass directly."

Gongcheng Diewu spoke up at this moment, giving Zhou Yan a look. After carefully sensing for a while, she spoke contemplatively.

Zhou Yan nodded. He didn’t perform anything but looked towards Ye Li, who had not yet left.

"Hm? What are you, to dare look at me with such eyes?!"

Ye Li’s face turned cold, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"You say the Emperor Qi Sword Body is trash, and killing him is like slaughtering a dog?" Zhou Yan asked indifferently, with an icy voice.

"Exactly!" Ye Li proudly replied, his eyes displaying a provocative disdain.

"He once broke my Thunderflame Ancient Array on Thunder Flame Breaking Path Mountain. I lost to him, and even ended up passing on an extinct technique, the Thunder Flame Purple Fire, to him.

Despite my dislike for him, even wishing to kill him swiftly, you are in no position to speak such words."

Zhou Yan’s words were light, as if reminiscing about something, he spoke indifferently.

To others, this coldness and indifference was almost identical to that of Emperor Qi Sword Body Zhou Yan.

But no one knew that the two were actually one and the same.

"Hahahaha—"

Ye Li began to laugh, as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke under the heavens, laughing loudly.

"What are you? What makes you think you have the right? Oh that’s right, you possess the ancient and peerless Constitution of Thunderflame Sword Body, eh? With Combat Power Breaking Six, capable of competing with Third Transformation Sword Void Realm, whereas I’m merely in the Second Transformation Sword Void Realm. You could crush me, right!"

Ye Li sarcastically laughed, then his expression turned serious, "You wretched thing, do you really think you are something special? Do you think you are Xiao Tianlun, the Spiritualist? You really have no idea what’s coming to you! Emperor Qi Wasted Body died, and today, I, Ye Li, will slaughter you, the Thunderflame Sword Body, to end the myth of this ancient wasted constitution once and for all!"

As he spoke, Ye Li released a terrifying killing intent.

This killing intent, like an ancient Power of Destruction, directly bombarded Zhou Yan.

Fast!

Accurate!

Ruthless!

Powerful!

Yet, this near-fatal move did not prompt Zhou Yan to make a move.

Zhou Yan simply raised his hand and pinched.

"Ptui—"

The killing intent and Sword Intent crumbled in his hand, devoured instantly by the Thunder Seal.

Then, Zhou Yan exuded the might of a Thunder Emperor, shouting coldly, "Kneel!"

As if struck by lightning, Ye Li trembled all over and found himself kneeling on the ground.

At that moment, his body felt suppressed by terrifying thunder, robbing him of all strength! In an instant, he was completely powerless to resist!

His heart was filled with shock, completely unprepared for this bizarre turn of events.

But at that moment, Zhou Yan’s hand viciously slapped his face.

"Slap—"

A tremendously violent slap sent Ye Li’s head flying off, like a ball being kicked away.
