Chapter 814: Chapter 804: Black Soul Spirit Fruit

"Huh, what’s that?"

Ye Zhen pointed at the black radiant fruit, asking twice in a row, but no one answered his question. It was then that Ye Zhen realized that, including Deputy Altar Master Hong Jiyin, Yua Qianlou, Zuo Xiong, and the Vein Forging Realm Martial Artists around, were all looking at Ye Zhen with an expression of disbelief.

Some people even had the audacity to scrutinize Ye Zhen using their Divine Soul Power, eager to discover whether this Ye Zhen in front of them was a fake!

Because all of this was simply too hard to believe!

When Ye Zhen suddenly appeared earlier, everyone was overjoyed, without any particular feeling, but as soon as Ye Zhen pointed at the black radiant fruit, everyone immediately recalled the terrifying scene of the two monsters self-destructing.

The way they looked at Ye Zhen became so peculiar!

Because in such a situation just now, even the peak of Establishment Realm Kings might not survive, yet Ye Zhen somehow survived, which was truly unbelievable!

Seeing the astonished gazes of the crowd, Ye Zhen helplessly touched his nose and smiled lightly, realizing it would be better to remain mysterious; the secret of how he survived the terrifying self-destructive forces should remain undisclosed!

After going through such a nearly fatal assault, Ye Zhen suddenly realized that the Earth Escape technique was indeed a life-saving mysterious technique at certain times!

As long as he burrowed underground, the solid earth could block most of the attacks for him.

Of course, the premise was that Ye Zhen had the chance to escape into the ground to potentially save his life with the Earth Escape technique. In fact, before Ye Zhen could burrow underground, the monsters transformed by Yun Pochuan and his wife began to self-destruct. When Ye Zhen was still fifty meters from the ground, the terrifying energy shockwave from the self-destruction bombarded Ye Zhen!

The energy shockwave was horrifying; Ye Zhen clearly remembered that while rushing towards the ground, there were three Longevity Sect Vein Forging Realm Martial Artists dozens of meters above his left side, each one having a higher cultivation than him!

But in just a split second, the red energy shockwave flashed by, and the three of them vanished!

Vanished, as in direct disappearance, turning into nothingness!

How terrifying was that?

However, the moment Yun Pochuan and his wife appeared, Ye Zhen already knew about their Secret Technique capable of annihilating Establishment Realm Kings, so he was mentally and practically prepared.

As soon as the self-destruction-induced energy shockwave appeared, Ye Zhen crushed the remaining ten-plus Heavenly Level Defense Talismans in his hand simultaneously!

These ten-plus Heavenly Level Talismans were what Ye Zhen found from Yan Cong’s storage ring after slaying the Stars Tower Master Yan Cong. He had found a handful of talismans, including more than twenty defensive ones. He had used a few Heavenly Level Lower Grade Defense Talismans earlier, leaving twelve now!

Among them were two Heavenly Level High Grade Defense Talismans, five Heavenly Level Middle Grade, and five Heavenly Level Lower Grade Defense Talismans. Crushing these twelve defensive talismans added one layer after another of azure eggshell-like protection around Ye Zhen, heavily guarding him!

It’s worth noting that a Heavenly Level High Grade Defense Talisman can withstand a full-force attack from an Early Stage Establishment Realm King!

By Ye Zhen’s estimation, even an attack from a Peak Ninth Stage Establishment King would be 70 to 80 percent blocked by crushing these defensive talismans simultaneously!

However, Ye Zhen remained uneasy because this was his life at stake, faced with a self-destruction akin to a Peak Ninth Stage Establishment King!

It’s worth knowing that if a Vein Forging Realm Eighth Stage powerhouse truly self-destructed, even a Vein Forging Realm Eighth Stage Martial Artist probably wouldn’t survive, not to mention that there were two monsters with auras comparable to a Peak Ninth Stage Establishment King!

With a thought, the Green Mother Azure Light Mirror on Ye Zhen’s chest emitted dazzling green light, and all the Spiritual Power within Ye Zhen’s Dantian surged into the Green Mother Azure Light Mirror, creating an extremely solid defensive barrier in front of Ye Zhen!

But that wasn’t all, Ye Zhen also fully activated another mid-grade spirit artifact, Thousand Vine!

In an instant, nearly a thousand strands of green vine radiance shot out from Thousand Vine, wrapping Ye Zhen in layers like a cocoon.

This demonstrates the value of this mid-grade spirit artifact, Thousand Vine, both offensive and defensive.

But that wasn’t all; with only his exposed palms, Ye Zhen slightly exerted force, and two earth-yellow Earth Primordial Divine Palms formed like walls in front of him. Meanwhile, the Innate Soul Light in his Soul Sea exploded unreservedly, and Earth Spirit Power from Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within dozens of miles gathered rapidly towards the wall-like Earth Primordial Divine Palms!

Especially since Ye Zhen was near the ground at that moment; the Earth Spirit Power was exceedingly dense!

With a single thought, the Earth Primordial Divine Palms became more than twice as dense!

But at the same time, the shockwave bombarded the outermost Earth Primordial Divine Palms, and before Ye Zhen’s Earth Primordial Divine Palms could grow stronger, the earth wall formed by them was directly demolished as if it were paper-thin!

Next was the outermost azure defensive light screen formed by the twelve Heavenly Level Defense Talismans!

Under normal circumstances, the defense of Heavenly Level Defense Talismans was exceptionally resilient, but in the face of this red energy shockwave, they were shredded layer by layer like paper!

In a matter of seconds, it bombarded the defensive barrier condensed by the Green Mother Azure Light Mirror densely covering Ye Zhen’s surface, lasting less than half a breath before the barrier was smashed into nothing!

The overwhelming shockwave then hammered onto Ye Zhen’s chest!

At this point, Ye Zhen had only one final layer of defense left, which was the cocoon formed by nearly a thousand vine radiances from Thousand Vine.

This Thousand Vine could trap an Establishment Realm King, yet in front of this terrifying energy shockwave, it still couldn’t hold for even half a breath!

However, leveraging the nearly half-breath time gained by the Green Mother Azure Light Mirror and the Thousand Vine’s vine cocoon, Ye Zhen successfully traversed the last fifty meters off the ground, and his body successfully sank into the earth!

As soon as he submerged into the earth, Ye Zhen moved like a fish entering the water, joyfully swimming deeper into the earth!

A terrifying event happened in an instant; the solid earth which could block most attacks on ordinary days, suddenly split like a wave under the bombardment of the red energy shockwave, directly blasting towards Ye Zhen!

The only change was that with the blockage of the earth, the speed of the red energy shockwave had slowed significantly!

The life-saving experience when Ye Zhen was bombarded by three Demon-Annihilating Generals a few days ago saved his life this time!

While escaping more than a hundred meters underground, Ye Zhen suddenly made a rapid turn, dashing swiftly in another direction!

However, during the rapid underground turn, Ye Zhen’s back was still grazed by the edge of the shockwave’s power. In an instant, he felt as if struck by lightning, his internal organs felt like they were shattering!

Gritting his teeth, Ye Zhen wildly escaped in another direction!

Fortunately, due to Ye Zhen’s reason to burrow into the earth, he was wrapped in an extremely pure layer of Earth Spirit Power, and the vast Earth Spirit Power underground concealed Ye Zhen’s aura well, making the red shockwave unable to lock onto Ye Zhen’s presence anymore, crazily blasting directly into the ground!

In Ye Zhen’s perception, that thing dived a thousand meters underground in an instant, hitting an underground fire vein. At the moment of the underground explosion hitting the fire vein, a terrifying explosion erupted once again!

This time, the solid ground blocked the explosive aftermath well, but the terrifying pressure from the explosion’s impact almost permanently buried Ye Zhen underground.

At the moment of escaping to the surface and breathing air, Ye Zhen finally sighed in relief, his back already drenched in cold sweat!

To be honest, if it weren’t for Ye Zhen knowing five days ago about the impending strike of the Yun Pochuan couple, knowing that they had means to easily kill even Establishment Realm Kings, he wouldn’t have been prepared.

Otherwise, Ye Zhen estimated he would either vanish into nothingness or turn into a heap of minced flesh!

Under such terrifying force attack, being unprepared would have undoubtedly led to death!

From the start of the battle today, Ye Zhen dedicated most of his attention to searching for the Yun Pochuan couple, ultimately escaping a calamity!

Fortunately, they weren’t aware of Ye Zhen’s Earth Escape Divine Skill. Otherwise, if they detonated underground, Ye Zhen would have been dead for sure!

The void sky wouldn’t block any attack for Ye Zhen!

Ye Zhen had made up his mind that unless his strength significantly increased, he wouldn’t disclose the existence of Earth Escape to anyone, except for those few known individuals.

The dangerous and near-fatal escape of Ye Zhen wouldn’t be known to the martial artists present. They only saw the mysterious and confident smile at the corners of Ye Zhen’s mouth.

In an instant, Ye Zhen appeared mysterious and powerful in their eyes!

Returning alive under such a terrifying attack, just how strong is Lord Ye?

That’s a question on everyone’s mind!

The previously pale-faced Deputy Altar Master Hong Jiyin now had eyes shining brightly!

At Ye Zhen’s repeated urging, everyone finally snapped out of their shocked state and began answering Ye Zhen’s questions.

Yua Qianlou answered first: "Lord Altar Master, these two things appeared after those two monsters self-destructed! After the monsters self-destructed, two groups of brilliance emerged!

One group is the terrifying self-destructive red brilliance, and the other group is this fruit-like condensed black brilliance!"

As he spoke, Yua Qianlou glanced at the black fruit brilliance and added, "Lord Altar Master, this thing seems really sinister!"

While slowly approaching, the immense and wave-like Divine Sense and Sword Heart Enlightenment covered the black fruit brilliance like water ripples. Within a few breaths, Ye Zhen suddenly showed a trace of a strange expression!

"Innate Soul Light, something similar to Innate Soul Light, seems to contain extremely pure Divine Soul Power.....and also a very sinister force...."

A look of astonishment suddenly appeared on Ye Zhen’s face, with one unspoken sentence: the extremely pure Divine Soul Power similar to Innate Soul Light was terrifying in quantity!

Solely judging by quantity, it was about ten times the Innate Soul Light of the Fifth Stage Establishment King from Stars Tower that Ye Zhen had collected!

Ten times!

"I wonder if this thing can be refined by my Soul Refining Spirit Theft Art?" Ye Zhen’s mind suddenly stirred.

"No matter, such a treasure should be collected first!"

With a movement, Ye Zhen’s five fingers released strands of Spirit Light carrying Divine Soul Aura, winding towards the two masses of black fruit brilliance!

"If you dare touch the two Black Soul Spirit Fruits, I promise you, your dog paws will be chopped off!" From the void, an extremely cold and chilling voice sounded! (To be continued.
