Chapter 511: Chapter 497: Xiao Ye Takes Action

Swoosh!

Fan Li pushed his speed to the peak and dashed toward the entrance to the Second Layer like a streak of flowing light.

"Fan Li!"

Xiao Ye’s anger reached an extreme; this guy was simply too shameless, actually shoving him aside and seizing the opportunity to rush towards the Second Layer.

He had long suspected that Fan Li’s approach was not with good intentions, yet he still let down his guard!

"Hmph, Fan Li, you just wait, even if you are a disciple from the Xuanzi Hall, I will absolutely not let you off!"

Xiao Ye bellowed with rage as he was surrounded by a circle of fifty Martial Artists. The fifty Martial Artists stepped forward in unison, advancing toward Xiao Ye.

Their cold and sharp eyes seemed to tear through the void like blades, making his muscles feel as if they were about to split.

Three Martial Artists were already ganging up on the first Disciple that rushed up, while another five stretched out their hands and slapped towards Xiao Ye. The terrifying surge of Qi swept in, utterly horrifying and heart-shaking.

"Ah!" That first Disciple to rush up clashed with the three Martial Artists, his body trembling as if struck by lightning, then spurted blood from his mouth and flew backwards, crashing into the ground with such force that he couldn’t get up for a long while.

As for the other Disciples, they fared no better, each sustaining heavy injuries.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ye didn’t have time to worry about much else. At such a point within the Haotian Tower First Level, where cultivation and other combat techniques were suppressed, he could only use the King Martial Combat Skills he comprehended to clash with these Martial Artists.

Boom!

Xiao Ye punched out, causing heaven and earth to tremble as if thunder was exploding in the sky. An intense glow rose from his fist, like a sun illuminating everything.

Subsequently, many Disciples saw that wherever Xiao Ye’s fist reached, a monstrous wave of force spread out visibly in all directions, shredding everything in its path.

In an instant, the void of the Haotian Tower First Level shattered inch by inch; space itself exploded and was destroyed, with countless spatial storms sweeping out and wreaking havoc on this level.

This was a combat technique Xiao Ye had gleaned from the King Martial Crystal, named King Martial Dominating Body Fist, extremely yang and domineering, capable of unleashing all its power in an instant.

With the help of the Time Tower, although King Martial Combat Skills were profoundly deep and mysterious, Xiao Ye had still comprehended quite a bit, almost reaching Intermediate level.

According to the information of this set of King Martial Combat Skills, once it was cultivated to the level of Great Success, it could condense a physique like the Domineering Body. As for the power it would wield, it could only be known once it had been successfully cultivated.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

Then, to the astonishment of all, those five Martial Artists attacking Xiao Ye trembled and were simultaneously forced back seven or eight steps before stopping, while Xiao Ye himself still stood firmly in place, unmoved.

A rich color of shock surfaced on the faces of all Disciples, and the sound of gasping echoed loudly, even the other Mysterious Martial Artists stopped all at once, their gazes falling upon Xiao Ye.

The Disciples were the most astonished.

They were clearly at a disadvantage against these suddenly emerged Martial Artists, with many sustaining heavy injuries upon contact. And yet, Xiao Ye managed to repel five Martial Artists at the same time with his own strength?

What shocked them most was, the King Martial Combat Skills they comprehended from the King Martial Crystal were also King Martial Dominating Body Fist.

But in just a few short hours, they had barely managed to get a grasp of the basics, let alone cultivate the Combat Skills of King Martial to the level of Xiao Ye.

"This...how is this possible!"

"Xiao Ye is also using King Martial Combat Techniques, why is he so much stronger than us!"

"Could it be that Xiao Ye had cultivated these King Martial Combat Techniques before?" one of the Disciples said in a daze.

"That’s impossible, Xiao Ye has only been in the Holy Palace for a year, and with his former status, it was impossible for him to have encountered King Martial Combat Techniques!"

...

The murmurs of doubt among the many Disciples were interrupted by the scream of a Martial Artist who had been attacked by a Mysterious Martial Artist, snapping the Disciples out of their doubts as they continued their assault, trying to break through to the entrance of the Second Layer.

There was no other option, the environment rife with powerhouses didn’t allow them any distraction, these doubts had to be set aside for later consideration.

"Indeed, these Martial Artists may seem strong, but they seem to fear the King Martial Dominating Body Fist a lot!"

Xiao Ye stood proudly in the arena, any Mysterious Martial Artist who dared approach him was blasted away with a single punch; no one could stop his advance.

And he was freely executing the set of King Martial Combat Skills, the feeling of exhilaration flowing continuously in his heart.

It seemed that the Elder of the Earth Hall indeed had not deceived them; this First Level tested one’s comprehension. As long as one could perceive the essence of the King Martial Combat Skills to a certain degree within the labyrinth, they could naturally pass through with ease.

However, as Xiao Ye looked around, he noticed that most of the Disciples were being oppressed so much that they couldn’t even lift their heads. Probably only about a dozen people could wield the King Martial Combat Skills effectively enough to withstand the attacks of the Mysterious Martial Artists.

Even so, Xiao Ye also noticed that Fan Li, who had blasted him away before taking the chance to rush towards the entrance to the Second Layer, was blocked by two Martial Artists working together.

Although Fan Li was a genius Disciple of the Xuanzi Hall, his impatience to not fall behind Xiao Ye led him to forcibly interrupt his understanding; there was too little Time for comprehension, and his execution of the King Martial Dominating Body Fist was weak.

Moreover, his Cultivation was being suppressed at the moment, and just like a flickering light in a gale, he could be blown away at any moment.

"Hmph, I never thought my chance for revenge would come so soon!" A cold smile appeared on Xiao Ye’s face as he repelled all the Mysterious Martial Artists in his way, and stepped towards Fan Li.

"Xiao... Xiao Ye, what are you doing!" Sensing the movement behind him, Fan Li took a quick glance back and yelled in horror, his face ashen.

He had also noticed that Xiao Ye’s comprehension of the King Martial Dominating Body Fist far surpassed that of their group of Disciples by many times.

Thinking this, Fan Li was filled with regret.

If he hadn’t betrayed Xiao Ye a little while ago, their relationship wouldn’t have deteriorated so fast, and perhaps with a better attitude, he might have been able to reach the entrance to the Second Layer with Xiao Ye’s help.

But how could he have imagined Xiao Ye’s comprehension would be so terrifying?

Now it was too late for regrets; based on his earlier actions, Xiao Ye’s approach was clearly not with good intentions, but rather for vengeance.

"What am I going to do?" Xiao Ye said with a smile that was not quite a smile, speaking coldly, "Fan Li, you should be very clear about that."

Xiao Ye said, stomped his foot on the ground, and his figure quickly dashed forward.
