Chapter 473: Chapter 472: [Ye Tianchen Overpowered?]

Killing with a blink of an eye, he spewed out a massive Sword Energy, which people found terrifying just to think about. In the eyes of these experts, Songben Xiajian was definitely a top-notch master. To ordinary people who didn’t understand such might, perhaps only one phrase could describe it: "The world is so big, there are no wonders that do not exist!"

Ye Tianchen countered the black Sword Energy with his Thunder Sky Fist, causing Songben Xiajian to frown. He hadn’t expected this young man from China to have such courage and strength. After the collision, Ye Tianchen was sent flying, of course having also shattered that streak of black Sword Energy. His body crashed heavily against the Big Stone Tablet at the entrance to Heavenly Killing Town, shattering the ten-plus Zhang tall, five or six meters wide, and one meter thick stele. Despite his incredibly sturdy body, he felt a surge of blood within him and an urge to vomit blood.

For the first time, this was the first time since Ye Tianchen had been reborn on Earth that he had battled someone and gotten knocked away with just one strike, even sustaining some injuries. He hadn’t expected this, especially since he had already broken through to the strength of the Emperor-level Superpower Realm. This inadvertently highlighted the formidable prowess of Songben Xiajian; he truly was as powerful as no idle talk could describe.

When Songben Xiajian emitted a black Sword Energy, Ye Tianchen felt the terrible might of it, filled with Yin Qi, definitely more toxic than Li Qiushui’s Bone Melting Palm. But Ye Tianchen didn’t shrink back. The moment he stepped into Heavenly Killing Town, he resolved to cause a massacre and confront Songben Xiajian, not allowing any danger to come to his loved ones. Despite being aware of the ferocious nature of the black Sword Energy, Ye Tianchen still met it head-on with his Thunder Sky Fist; this was a display of his Battle Intent and fighting spirit.

A person’s Battle Intent and fighting spirit are what sustain their combat strength. Once Battle Intent and fighting spirit collapse, even with immense fighting power, they cannot be realized, and the person is certain to be defeated by their opponent.

"So you are Ye Tianchen? Indeed, you have some moves!" Songben Xiajian said coldly with a huff.

"Moves? I have plenty of them, just to see how many you have!" Ye Tianchen stood up straight, forcibly suppressing the tumultuous blood within him and looked at Songben Xiajian with an unwavering gaze.

"Not bad, not bad. I’m actually considering wanting you to join our Beichen Blade Sect. Indeed, you have greater potential to be shaped than Richuan Gangban!" Songben Xiajian did not immediately make a move. Ye Tianchen’s strength earned his admiration, but he still didn’t really see it as a threat. At that moment, Songben Xiajian had broken the chastity of two virgins and recovered more than half of his battle strength. He was exceedingly arrogant by nature and now that his fighting capability had been restored, he became even more overbearing. He was confident he could take down Ye Tianchen, so he was in no hurry.

"Join your Beichen Blade Sect? Do you really think your damn Sect is all that impressive?" Ye Tianchen said with disdain.

"Is that so? Young man, there are many people in your China who want to join our Beichen Blade Sect. Why don’t you consider following their example?" Songben Xiajian casually remarked.

"Those are traitors to their country. Why don’t you also become a traitor and join the Shaolin Temple in our China?" Ye Tianchen asked with a mocking smile.

Songben Xiajian didn’t speak. The death of Richuan Gangban had indeed depressed him somewhat. It was not easy for the Beichen Blade Sect to have produced a young man with such great strength as Richuan Gangban, who was marked for key cultivation. Richuan Gangban truly had the talent, but alas, he encountered Ye Tianchen, lost and was killed. So seeing Ye Tianchen, younger yet stronger than Richuan Gangban, Songben doubted that if he were to be cultivated, he might become an even more formidable disciple than Richuan Gangban. But Songben Xiajian did not have such enlightenment, and the idea to enlist Ye Tianchen was impossible.

Whoosh!

Songben Xiajian did not answer Ye Tianchen; instead, he disappeared from the spot. Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but be alarmed, clenching his fists tightly and vigilantly scanning his surroundings. Songben Xiajian was very powerful, and he had to be taken seriously. Little did he know, Songben Xiajian had not attacked him but instead flashed to the top of Heavenly Killing Town, right above Songben’s head was the golden cover sealed by Ye Tianchen’s Golden Divine Shield.

"Your Defensive Skill isn’t bad. Now, let me show you the strength of the Beichen Blade Sect’s Cultivation Technique, to convince you thoroughly!" Songben Xiajian said disdainfully to Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen didn’t speak but watched Songben Xiajian with a somewhat solemn expression. He saw Songben Xiajian place his left hand behind his back and extend his middle and index fingers on his right hand, conjuring an ephemeral Sword Energy. It wasn’t the type that was massively overwhelming but rather looked like a very small knife.

Pop!

A crisp sound rang out, and the Sword Energy condensed by Songben Xiajian’s right hand index and middle fingers instantly punctured through Ye Tianchen’s Golden Divine Shield, causing his brows to furrow. This old fellow’s methods were indeed very powerful, especially that black Sword Energy of his — seemingly indestructible and extraordinarily strong. Could this be the top-tier Blade Skill of the Beichen Sword Sect’s style? So unorthodox?

Whoosh! Songben Xiajian had reached in front of Ye Tianchen, just five meters away, yet Ye Tianchen didn’t retreat half a step. He simply watched Songben Xiajian, feeling a sense of awe within himself. The old man was very formidable. How could he possibly kill him? In this battle, it was certain either Ye Tianchen or Songben Xiajian would die – that much was clear. The fight hadn’t erupted yet because Songben Xiajian was still considering if there was any possibility of recruiting Ye Tianchen as a disciple for the Beichen Sword Sect. After all, if it were possible, it would be a great fortune for the Sect.

"Ye Tianchen, how about this technique of mine? I am giving you a chance right now. As long as you join our Beichen Sword Sect, not only will I not kill you, we can also write off the matter of you killing Sato and Richuan Gangban!" Songben Xiajian tempted Ye Tianchen.

"How about this, I join the Beichen Sword Sect, and the matter of killing you can also be written off, can it?" Ye Tianchen asked with a cold laugh.

Songben Xiajian glanced at Ye Tianchen, a killing intent appearing in his eyes. He hadn’t expected Ye Tianchen to be so unappreciative of his offer. If it weren’t for Ye Tianchen’s strength and prowess, he, Songben Xiajian, would not have wasted his breath and time, and would have long since made a move, not waiting until now.

"Ignorant fool, blind to what’s good for you!" Songben Xiajian said venomously.

"I think the ignorant fool is you, not realizing you’re courting death. The ones blind to what’s good for them are the people of the Beichen Sword Sect!" Ye Tianchen said without yielding an inch.

Smack!

Songben Xiajian was a ruthless man with strong murderous vibes. With just one palm, he smacked towards Ye Tianchen. Ye Tianchen was taken aback; he knew this was the Beichen Palm. Richuan Gangban had used such a palm technique during their fierce battle. However, now that Songben Xiajian executed it, it was truly formidable. The whole Heavenly Killing Town trembled, even though it was just a seemingly simple palm strike.

Ye Tianchen was taken aback but also countered with Thunder Sky Fist. Leveraging his robust physique coupled with the formidable power of the Thunder Sky Fist, Songben Xiajian did not expect that his own Beichen Palm, which he had trained to a Mahayana level, would be so powerfully resisted. He was the strongest in the Beichen Sword Sect, next to his brother, the Sword Emperor, in practicing this palm technique. The ferocity of Beichen Palm was powerful enough to topple mountains and overturn seas. Songben Xiajian was confident a palm strike of his could shatter a tall building, and when his brother, the Sword Emperor, struck out with a palm, it was a truly earth-shaking event, without any exaggeration. Ye Tianchen was only in his twenties, and yet he was able to withstand the Beichen Palm. Songben Xiajian had never seen such a person in his entire life.

Bang, bang, bang...

The Thunder Sky Fist clashed against the Beichen Palm for a full ten minutes. Ye Tianchen didn’t know how many punches he had thrown, nor did he care about the injuries on his body; he was just desperately attacking Songben Xiajian. This older man was too strong. Ye Tianchen launched many punches yet failed to hit Songben Xiajian even once, while he himself took several hits, blood already trickling from the corner of his mouth.

Boom!

With a loud bang, Ye Tianchen and Songben Xiajian were separated. The energy impact was simply too great. Ye Tianchen’s fists were covered in blood, and there was also a trace of blood at his mouth corner, while Songben Xiajian remained unscathed, not having taken a single punch from Ye Tianchen. However, his expression wasn’t relaxed at all but rather extremely solemn. The black True Qi on his palms surged even more tumultuously, filled with the urge to crush Ye Tianchen to death.

Despite not landing a single strike on Songben Xiajian and taking several blows himself, the battle did not make Songben Xiajian feel victorious at all. On the contrary, he felt humiliated and was more eager to kill Ye Tianchen than ever because he could not have anticipated that Ye Tianchen would be able to fight against him like this. Songben Xiajian had used almost all his strength to employ the Beichen Palm, an extremely fierce and ruthless technique that would ordinarily leave most people unable to stand after a single palm strike. Yet, Ye Tianchen had endured at least three palms, not only getting back up but also with his fighting capacity not diminished at all. Leaving such a person alive, one who opposed the Beichen Sword Sect, posed an immense pressure on Songben Xiajian. If Ye Tianchen were allowed to grow, it would indeed spell the potential doom of the Beichen Sword Sect.

"Ye Tianchen, I truly wanted you to join our Beichen Sword Sect, but now, I’ve changed my mind. A person like you must die; I cannot leave a major threat like you for the Beichen Sword Sect!" As Songben Xiajian spoke, he walked towards Ye Tianchen, with the black True Qi on his palms billowing more intensely than before, many times stronger than earlier.
