Chapter 349: Chapter 345: Silver Line Flash

Pfft!

With a step onto the radiant Heavenly Destiny Bridge, Ye Zhen felt the ground beneath vanish, and his body uncontrollably tumbled toward the churning black Mist Sea below the bridge.

"Damn it!"

Ye Zhen cursed loudly as spiritual power surged around his body in an instant, and he pushed his Divine Soul Power to its extreme, trying to commandeer the magic formula for flight at its maximum, yearning to ascend through his own strength.

Normally, he could easily soar through the sky by invoking the flight formula, but from the moment Ye Zhen fell from the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, it was as though a mountain pressed down atop his head, making his body oppressively heavy.

Not only that, but the rolling black fog below seemed to contain boundless suction, determined to draw Ye Zhen into its midst, trapping him there for eternity.

Ahh!

Ye Zhen roared in rage!

Even with his spiritual power pushed to the limit, he couldn’t even slow his fall, let alone fly. Continuing like this, he would plummet straight into the black fog and be eliminated from the competition.

"No!"

"My fate is mine to command... not heaven’s!"

Ye Zhen bellowed fiercely.

Amidst his high-pitched yell, Ye Zhen’s hands rapidly formed a series of peculiar hand seals, and a red seal burst forth from his chest.

The next moment, the Red Jade Seal flashed beneath him like a bolt of lightning, positioning itself less than ten meters below Ye Zhen’s feet.

"Explode!"

The word burst from Ye Zhen’s clenched teeth, and almost simultaneously, he fervently stimulated his Divine Sense, as Red Jade Spiritual Power crazily rushed to the surface of his body, instantly coalescing into Red Jade Spirit Armor.

With the Red Jade Spirit Armor formed, Ye Zhen’s overwhelming Jade Spirit Power continued to flow ceaselessly outward, particularly around his feet, layered with Red Jade Spiritual Power.

As much as has been said, all of this was completed in a mere instant.

As the word ’explode’ erupted from the corner of Ye Zhen’s mouth, the Red Jade Seal beneath his feet burst into fiercely brilliant radiance, scattering the rolling black fog in all directions.

The power from the Red Jade Seal’s explosion and the resulting terrifying shockwave slammed brutally against Ye Zhen’s falling feet.

Layers of Red Jade Spiritual Power at Ye Zhen’s feet were instantly extinguished, and the terrifying shockwave ferociously struck the Red Jade Spirit Armor on his soles, emitting crackling sounds of fracture as cracks rapidly spread.

It was at that moment the change occurred to Ye Zhen.

As the swirling black fog below dispersed under the explosive force of the Red Jade Seal, the dreadful suction vanished in an instant, and Ye Zhen felt his body abruptly lighten.

Almost at the same time, the force struck Ye Zhen’s soles, and the prepared Ye Zhen used this mighty force to propel himself, as if stepping on solid ground. With a slight flex of his body, he surged skyward with great force.

Borrowing force!

In the moment his figure ascended, the Red Jade Spirit Armor at Ye Zhen’s feet had crumbled away, and the residual force of the shockwave blasted into his feet, drenching them in blood.

At this moment, Ye Zhen, clenching his teeth, ignored the excruciating pain, as his entire being shot up like an arrow piercing the sky, crossing the luminance of the Heavenly Destiny Bridge in an instant and returning to the bridge’s surface.

But Ye Zhen dared not gamble!

He didn’t know what would happen when he set foot on the Heavenly Destiny Bridge again.

Would he step into the void as before?

Or would it be solid ground?

If he faced another void, Ye Zhen’s feet would no longer withstand such a severe strike.

"Since I’m contending for my life, I’ll fight to the very end!"

While the momentum from borrowing force hadn’t ceased, Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense suddenly focused on the Essence Spirit Pearl of the Silver Line Demon Eagle King within the Mirage Dragon Pearl.

As Ye Zhen channeled all his Divine Soul Power into it, the Essence Spirit Pearl of the Silver Line Demon Eagle King shone brightly.

Screech!

Along with the piercing cry of the Silver Line Demon Eagle King, a strange wave of power coursed through Ye Zhen, entering every limb, instantly inducing a peculiar rhythm in Ye Zhen’s body.

A pair of wings, purely made of Red Jade Spiritual Power, sprang from Ye Zhen’s back in an instant. The wings, like a mirage, gently flapped to a mysterious rhythmic beat, and instantly turned into a trail of fire.

Whoosh!

The sound of tearing through the void echoed sharply.

Ye Zhen’s figure vanished out of thin air, and above the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, a red streak faster than lightning appeared and vanished in a flash.

Silver Line Flash, the innate talent of the Silver Line Demon Eagle King!

This was the new ability that Ye Zhen discovered from the Mirage Dragon Pearl after the Second Stage of its space was unlocked—Ye Zhen could now utilize the innate talents within the Essence Soul Pearls.

For instance, the Silver Line Flash of the Silver Line Demon Eagle King.

However, when executed by Ye Zhen’s human form, the actual effect was somewhat inferior compared to that of the Silver Line Demon Eagle King, but if Ye Zhen transformed into the form of the Silver Line Demon Eagle, he could, just like the Eagle King, cover ten miles in an instant!

Now, although Ye Zhen didn’t reach the speed of ten miles in an instant, he still managed six or seven miles, which meant in an instant he moved more than three thousand meters.

On the other side of the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, Huaa Wushuang still stood alone with her hands behind her back, but this time she lacked the feeling of being in a different world.

Her sense of superiority was shattered, one incident after another; without her utmost pride, she naturally couldn’t maintain the sensation of being high above the world and detached from it.

More than that, Huaa Wushuang’s expression was rather sullen.

In the Mist Sea Heart Confusion trial, she was late to emerge, which she could accept, as everyone has their own strengths and hers wasn’t Divine Soul Power.

But with the Heavenly Destiny Bridge trial, she felt thoroughly shaken.

The Passing Jade Token in his hand showed a ranking of second!

What depressed him the most was that the person in first place still completely ignored him, the second in rank.

Hand Extreme Bu Changtian’s expression was slightly excited. At this point, five people had crossed the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, all of them the cream of the crop, and the Jade Talisman in his hand showed a ranking of fourth!

This ranking was enough to make him happy.

"Brother Mo, who do you think will be the next to come out?"

Bu Changtian and Mo Xinsui stood casually on either side of the exit of the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, eyeing the roiling brilliance inside.

"Hard to say, Zuo Bin should be close..."

Whoosh....!

The piercing sound of tearing through the void suddenly rang out, and both Mo Xinsui’s and Bu Changtian’s faces changed instantly, intuitively wanting to dodge upon identifying the direction of the sound.

However, before they could move, that piercing tearing noise shot wildly between the two of them, the fierce wind even making both of their figures stagger, almost falling to the ground.

"Ye Zhen?"

Seeing who the person was after stabilizing his stance in the distance, both Bu Changtian and Mo Xinsui’s faces changed again. The sixth person to pass through the Heavenly Destiny Bridge turned out to be Ye Zhen.

"So disheveled?"

After clearly seeing Ye Zhen’s appearance, Bu Changtian laughed.

Because Ye Zhen’s appearance was indeed quite disheveled. His boots were so tattered that only the uppers remained, the soles were long gone, and the flesh on the bottoms of his feet was blurred with blood flowing, with even a glimpse of white bone showing at the edges.

"Brother Ye Zhen, let me help you heal. Sit down!"

Caiyi wasn’t particularly surprised by Ye Zhen’s injuries. She naturally helped Ye Zhen to sit down, squatted beside him, placed Ye Zhen’s feet on her own legs, took out clean water from the storage ring, and began washing the wounds on Ye Zhen’s feet, carefully applying medicine to them.

All these actions were done in a very natural way, without any sense of affectation. Each movement seemed to carry warmth, inducing envy in Huaa Wushuang watching in the distance.

"Is there such a girl in the world?"

"Such a girl should become the Huaa Concubine of my Tiannan Hua Family! Moreover, her cultivation is so extraordinary, of immense benefit to my own cultivation. Where can one find such a girl?"

"What is Butler Hua doing, the damn fool?"

"Postpone it, the selection for the Hundred Flowers must be postponed!" Huaa Wushuang clenched her fist.

Bu Changtian and Mo Xinsui, who were scoffing at Ye Zhen, were now staring in stupefaction. Indeed, Caiyi was deserving of her fairy-like name; from the moment they laid eyes on her, they regarded her as a fairy-like girl.

But now, this fairy-like girl was holding Ye Zhen’s big feet, washing and medicating them without any sign of disgust, doing so with such focus.

Phew!

Only now did Ye Zhen let out a sigh of relief, and he realized that his back was drenched in cold sweat.

"Caiyi, thank you!"

Caiyi gave Ye Zhen a slight smile and continued applying the medicine.

In fact, what Ye Zhen was thanking Caiyi for was not for the act of medicating him that she was doing now.

It was for a phrase Caiyi had said to Ye Zhen before — "If you are to be the heavens, then you are... heavenly destiny!"

If it hadn’t been for Caiyi’s words, Ye Zhen might not have been able to pass the Heavenly Destiny Bridge and turn the tide against heavenly destiny today.

Just as Ye Zhen was about to fall from the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, those seven words, "my fate is mine, not dictated by heaven," were already branded in Ye Zhen’s bones.

It was at that moment, Ye Zhen understood the true meaning of "heavenly destiny."

Heavenly destiny is actually comprised of two elements.

Heaven is destiny; life is a battle!

When heaven doesn’t care, my life is a struggle!

That was how Ye Zhen did it, when passing through the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, there was no heavenly destiny; but in the end, Ye Zhen struggled desperately and successfully made it through the Heavenly Destiny Bridge.

And just as Ye Zhen was reflecting on this, a Jade Talisman descended from the sky and landed in Ye Zhen’s hand.

The back of the Jade Talisman bore the words "Passing Jade Token."

The front displayed a number in spirit light, "Two!"

Almost simultaneously, Huaa Wushuang, sensing the radiance flickering from the token in his hand, changed his expression and looked at his own Passing Jade Token, and his expression instantly froze.

The rank on the Talisman increased by one stroke, changing from "Two" to "Three"!

"He’s faster than me too, how is that possible?"

Huaa Wushuang’s gaze towards Ye Zhen immediately filled with disbelief.

At the same time, Bu Changtian and Mo Xinsui, sensing something, both looked shocked, watching the numbers jump on their Passing Jade Tokens. Mo Xinsui’s complexion greatly changed while Bu Changtian’s expression became extremely ugly!

In the sky, Grand Deacon Qingyi and Thousand Illusion Eagle King, who had been observing the situation on the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, simultaneously showed a change in their countenance.

"Ten breaths!"

"How is that possible? Where does this kid get such high heavenly destiny from? To pass through the Heavenly Destiny Bridge in ten breaths, faster than Huaa Wushuang?" The Thousand Illusion Eagle King widened his eyes.

The brows of Grand Deacon Qingyi from the Black Dragon Ancient Land furrowed even tighter.

Not only the Thousand Illusion Eagle King, but also Hai Luoshuang, the Tower Master of Stars Tower, showed a face full of confusion.

"This Ye Zhen, even if he could pass the Heavenly Destiny Bridge, surely couldn’t possess such strong heavenly destiny? Could it be because of the girl by his side?" (To be continued.
