Chapter 743: Chapter 742: [A Wisp of Du Tianqi’s Divine Sense]

[PS: Here’s the second update for today. Please subscribe, thank you all!!!]

Ye Tianchen was not a man who likes to dawdle, nor was he someone who feared power. He believed in principles, not individuals. Even confronted with Du Tianqi’s Divine Thought, Ye Tianchen didn’t retreat half a step. He wanted to fight, he wanted to kill— it was as simple as that.

Du Tianqi was the Sect Leader of the Five Poison Sect. Among the martial artists watching the excitement, there was no lack of experts. They all knew that forty years ago, Du Tianqi had already been a Peak Expert at the Late Martial Venerate stage. With forty years gone by, given Du Tianqi’s talent and status, advancing to the Early-stage Martial Saint would be unsurprising. In fact, it seemed quite likely. Otherwise, how would the Five Poison Sect dare to openly challenge the Songshan Sect during this Ancient Martial World conference and vie for the position of ruler over the Ancient Martial World?

No one had expected that within Du Wan’s body, Du Tianqi had already implanted a talisman long ago. In times of danger, this talisman would burst forth, and Du Tianqi’s Divine Thought would manifest to save Du Wan’s life. This showed just how much Du Tianqi doted on his younger son and had foreseen his troubles; hence, he had taken precautions early on.

Ye Tianchen’s words caused everyone present to tremble in fear and made Du Tianqi’s frigid gaze even more chilling. The Five Poison Sect had a longstanding heritage, with even the Fiery Flame Banner from their founder, the Poison Saint, preserved. Looking across the entire Ancient Martial World, there were no more than three sects that could contend with the Five Poison Sect. No one had ever dared to speak to Du Tianqi in such a way; Ye Tianchen truly had the courage of a bear and the fierceness of a leopard.

"Young man, I advise you to restrain yourself a bit. Ignorance of the immensity of heaven and earth will lead to a death with no one to bury you," Du Tianqi coldly said to Ye Tianchen.

"Is that so? Even if I begged for mercy now, would you let me go? Stop pretending to be righteous. I, Ye Tianchen, don’t fall for such acts. Your son is arrogant and reckless, killing people indiscriminately, not knowing how many innocents he has harmed. If such a little bastard grows up, he will only bring disaster to the entire Ancient Martial World. I must kill him," Ye Tianchen said coldly, staring back at Du Tianqi.

"Hmph, this is merely a Divine Thought of mine. Without my true body here, I could obliterate you with a flick of my finger. You’re just at the Mid Martial Venerate stage and dare to challenge me. You’re courting death without choosing the right day," Du Tianqi scoffed.

"Let’s try!"

Facing Du Tianqi’s Divine Thought, Ye Tianchen showed no fear; he was also not negligent and absolutely didn’t dare to underestimate the threat. After all, forty years ago, Du Tianqi had been a Peak Expert in the Late Martial Venerate stage. Coupled with becoming the Sect Leader of the Five Poison Sect, his personal combat experience and talent were definitely exceptional. Forty years had passed, and if Du Tianqi had already advanced to the Early-stage Martial Saint realm, then Ye Tianchen would have a hard time competing against him.

"Father, you must kill this guy. He slapped me twice just now," Du Wan said arrogantly, believing he was safe now with the support of his father, Du Tianqi.

"Don’t worry, this man deserves to die. His spirit and form will be annihilated," Du Tianqi said dismissively without taking Ye Tianchen seriously.

"No, these people too, how dare they laugh at me, Du Wan? They all deserve to die," Du Wan boasted spitefully, glaring at the surrounding martial artists.

The martial artists who were there for the spectacle were shocked by Du Wan’s words. Even if there were experts among them who could battle Du Tianqi, they wouldn’t dare to easily offend the Five Poison Sect. After all, this was a sect that had stood unshaken in the Ancient Martial World for thousands of years, with unfathomable depth; no one dared to move against them lightly.

Du Tianqi glanced at the surrounding martial artists and said indifferently, "As long as you support me as the ruler of the Ancient Martial World, I can forgive and forget this issue."

Boom!

After speaking, Du Tianqi made his move, his palm striking down towards Ye Tianchen. Although it was only a Divine Thought, a mere shadow, it still held the power of a true battle. The Martial Arts True Power unleashed was incredibly shocking. This time, Du Tianqi aimed to kill Ye Tianchen with one palm strike, not considering Ye Tianchen a threat at all.

Ye Tianchen was at the Mid Martial Venerate stage of cultivation, which was apparent to his peers and to stronger experts who observed him. Du Tianqi, forty years ago, had been at a slightly higher level than Ye Tianchen, and after so many years, even if he remained at the peak of the Late Martial Venerate realm, he would certainly have made significant progress and might break through at any moment. And Du Tianqi’s combat experience certainly surpassed that of Ye Tianchen; having fought his way to head the Five Poison Sect, he must have faced numerous life-and-death battles.

"Ignorant fool, my father could squash you into a pulp with one slap," Du Wan said, grinning viciously and triumphantly upon seeing his father, Du Tianqi, take action.

"This is bad, Ye Tianchen can’t possibly be Du Tianqi’s opponent, let’s get out of here quickly."

"Quick, retreat! Once Ye Tianchen is killed, Du Tianqi won’t let us off either."

"What’s there to fear? It’s just a Divine Thought from Du Tianqi. If we join forces, we can still hold our ground."

"You’re insane. Even if you manage to crush Du Tianqi’s Divine Sense, it will provoke the entire Five Poison Sect. I fear that the Ancient Martial World will hunt us down everywhere. We better run!"

Some martial artists who were just watching for entertainment, driven by their worries and fears, quickly fled the scene, leaving only a few with high cultivation realms. Although they did not intervene, they also hoped that Ye Tianchen could defeat Du Tianqi. The Five Poison Sect had been domineering and tyrannical for hundreds of years in the Ancient Martial World, causing several bloody storms that led to the death of many innocents. Everyone despised them, yet they dared not speak out against the Sect, fearing its power and foundation.

"Beg for mercy while kneeling now, and you might just be in time!" Du Tianqi’s palm hovered above Ye Tianchen’s head, with strands of black Poisonous Gas tainting the very color of the air around them, terrifyingly potent. If this poison were to touch one’s skin, let alone be inhaled even slightly, death would be instantaneous.

"In my dictionary, Ye Tianchen, there is death in battle without submission, there is courage against all odds, but there is no kneeling for mercy..."

With a thunderous roar, Ye Tianchen made his move, instantly enveloping his entire body with a golden energy, enhancing his form. His right fist clenched tightly, streaks of Golden Light burst forth, countering the black poison in Du Tianqi’s right palm, ending in a stalemate.

"What Divine Arts is this boy using? Such an intense feeling of power."

"Golden Light twinkling, sweeping away everything, even the black energy that Du Tianqi unleashed was blocked by him. What kind of Absolute Skill is this powerful?"

"Shaking the heavens and the earth, my flesh is immortal, could it be... Impossible, absolutely impossible, the Divine Skills Immortal Scripture has been lost for tens of thousands of years, and even Master Fang Zheng has never practiced it. Where could Ye Tianchen have acquired this?" Some guessed the Divine Skill Ye Tianchen was using but couldn’t believe it because the spell had been lost in transmission for tens of thousands of years. How did Ye Tianchen come across it?

"No, it must be the Divine Arts that shook Earth a million years ago. According to the records of the Human Clan, millions of years ago, a monk walked upon the vast lands, peaceful and serene, helping and saving people in this world where the strong prey upon the weak, continuously resolving grievances between powerhouses, leaving behind countless legends..."

"I’ve also heard such rumors. It is said this monk only acted once in his life. When he arrived at a village and saw a Supreme Demon slaughtering the entire village, not even sparing newborn babies, the monk was enraged. A single punch he unleashed, a beam of golden fist light pierced through heaven and earth, striking into the outer realms, annihilating the Supreme Demon. Since then, the monk no longer walked among the common folk but started his own Sect to teach and enlighten sentient beings..."

"There’s no mistake, Ye Tianchen has obtained the legacy of the Yijin Jing. He has practiced the Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill and Vajra Divine Fist. Truly a person of great fortune!"

Du Tianqi furrowed his brows, seeing Ye Tianchen standing before him bathed in myriad Golden Lights, resisting his black Martial Arts True Power. He couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, "Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill, Vajra Divine Fist, you’ve been to Shaolin and obtained the Yijin Jing legacy?"

"From the moment I received the Yijin Jing legacy, I took on a mission that I must complete, which is to eradicate all of you Evil Demons and heretics!"

Boom!

Ye Tianchen fiercely attacked, punching toward Du Tianqi, startling everyone present. Even with the Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill and the Vajra Divine Fist, it was uncertain if he could defeat Du Tianqi, especially since Du Tianqi’s cultivation was far above Ye Tianchen’s. What was more critical was that no one knew to what extent Ye Tianchen had cultivated these two Absolute Divine Skills.

Thud!

The two energies collided, and Ye Tianchen stood in place, blood dripping from his mouth. He had sustained serious injuries from Du Tianqi’s palm strike, while Du Tianqi’s Divine Sense had become even more tenuous and blurred. Grudgingly admitting, he bit out, "I didn’t expect you to cultivate these two Divine Skills to the Small Success realm. I have underestimated you."

"I am always ready for your True Body to come fight. Your son’s life, I will take it first!" Ye Tianchen reached out with a Golden Hand and grabbed hold of Du Wan’s head, ready to crush it.

"Stop!" With his Divine Sense now extremely weak after being bombarded by the Vajra Divine Fist, and seeing his second son Du Wan on the verge of complete annihilation, Du Tianqi was powerless and could only shout at Ye Tianchen loudly.

"Hmph, I am not a disciple of the Five Poison Sect, nor am I an ordinary person that you can slaughter at will. Do you think you can make me stop just by commanding it? Who do you think you are?"

In that moment, Ye Tianchen fully unleashed his fury, disregarding Du Tianqi’s Divine Sense and the might of the Five Poison Sect altogether. With a single slap, he obliterated Du Wan, his eyes filled with unwavering resolve. (To be continued.
