Chapter 924: Chapter 923: [Battle Again with Du Wanli]

Ye Tianchen strode forward, striking a disciple of the Five Poison Sect down with a punch. At this moment, Du Tianqi’s voice rang out, shaking the entire Five Poison Sect. He still maintained the demeanor of the Sect Leader of the Five Poison Sect, unable to let go of his pride, believing that to engage with a junior like Ye Tianchen was an insult to his reputation. Therefore, Du Tianqi disdained to act, maintaining his arrogant stance even as Ye Tianchen truly attacked their stronghold, not wanting to appear inferior to others!

"If you don’t come out, I’ll kill until you do. I’ve already left a footprint on your Five Poison Sect’s plaque, and now it’s time for a massacre!"

Rumble!

Ye Tianchen roared, golden light radiating from his entire body. He was harnessing the power of the Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill at the Great Success realm, slaughtering his way through with the Overlord Fist. The Overlord Fist is the only Slaughter Skill among the Buddhist Holy Skills that lacks any compassion. It is immensely powerful, embodying a demeanor of submission from all lands, asserting dominance. At this moment, Ye Tianchen was like an overlord, walking through the sect of the Five Poison Sect, doing what a God of Killings should do.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Several beams of sword light, laden with poisonous gas, slashed towards him. Ye Tianchen did not dodge, but punched out fiercely. His formidable aura expanded, and with one punch, Ye Tianchen shattered the poison-laden sword light. At the same time, he executed the Divine Movement Skill to its utmost, swiftly reaching the few disciples of the Five Poison Sect shrouded in black mist at the forefront. Those who attempted to ambush him didn’t have the time to respond, nor the chance to, as they lost their lives.

Hiss!

A wave of poisonous gas enveloped him. Ye Tianchen shuddered, dispersing the poison. In the next moment, Taie Sword appeared in his hand. It was both a Power Sword and a Slaughter Sword. Ye Tianchen had no desire to dawdle further. He was unaware of the circumstances concerning Qing Chengyue, Dongfang Meng, Tianshuang’er, and Xie Yuhe, the four beauties. The foundation of the Five Poison Sect was deep and strong and hadn’t fully been revealed yet. Du Tianqi hadn’t taken action, nor had the elders in seclusion emerged. Ye Tianchen had to be cautious, aiming for a swift victory to conserve his strength for the ultimate battle.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump...

One after another, powerful sword qi cut through the air. For every slash of sword qi from Ye Tianchen, a mass of blood mist exploded, obliterating a disciple of the Five Poison Sect. These people were either highly cultivated individuals or those lurking in the shadows, attempting to ambush Ye Tianchen. Naturally, he held nothing back, as every corner here was fraught with danger. A single lapse could lead to complete obliteration. If you don’t kill, you will be killed—there was no room for restraint.

When Ye Tianchen, with the blood-dripping Taie Sword in hand, charged to the main hall of the Five Poison Sect’s central building, he paused. Standing before him was none other than Du Wanli. During their previous encounter at the Sun Never Sets Mountain, Ye Tianchen hadn’t been killed by Du Wanli, but he was indeed not a match for Du Wanli at that time, narrowly escaping with his life. This was a fact; Du Wanli’s cultivation and combat prowess were indeed formidable, especially with the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner in hand, which wasn’t something an ordinary person could contend with. Facing Du Wanli again, Ye Tianchen felt neither panic nor disdain; instead, he felt a strong urge to fight a grand battle.

"Ye Tianchen, you finally came. I didn’t expect you to have the guts to charge into my Five Poison Sect!" Du Wanli said coldly, looking at Ye Tianchen.

"There’s nothing I won’t dare to do. It’s all because you forced me. The Five Poison Sect, with its arrogance, seeks to commit acts of extermination and wishes to control my life and death. Unfortunately, I won’t allow it, so here I am!" Ye Tianchen replied in an equally cold tone.

"Hmph, know your place. Back at the Sun Never Sets Mountain, you were defeated by me and fled in desperation. Today, you won’t have such luck. This place is already surrounded by a powerful formation. Unless I’m dead, you won’t break this formation. Prepare to die!" Du Wanli said fiercely, glaring at Ye Tianchen.

"At the Sun Never Sets Mountain, you relied on your superior cultivation to charge in, narrowly escaping with your life. To keep your disgrace from spreading, you killed indiscriminately, utterly ruthless. This is your own doing. I haven’t broadcast your disgrace throughout the Ancient Martial World, which is already quite courteous!" Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

"Enough nonsense! Survival of the fittest, the strong rule. The victor reigns, and the loser dies—this is the unchanging law since ancient times. You’ve come here seeking death, and I’ll oblige you." Du Wanli shouted loudly.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Du Wanli, not intending to say much, but seeing Du Wanli so agitated and somewhat losing his composure, he shook his head, smiling, and said, "From your words and breath, I can tell you’ve lost confidence in yourself. You’re scared. You won’t kill me today, and your distracted mind will affect your combat strength. In today’s battle, you will definitely die!"

"Hahaha, what a ridiculous joke. It’s you who is scared. Your cultivation is only at the Late Martial Venerate stage, while I’ve long reached this realm. No matter how strong you are, you are no match for me. Prepare to die!"

Du Wanli laughed heartily, delivering a palm strike towards Ye Tianchen with overwhelming force and dominance, exuding an aura as if he could obliterate Ye Tianchen completely with just this one move.

Boom!

Ye Tianchen naturally wouldn’t hold back, nor would he sit idly awaiting his fate. He had never underestimated Du Wanli, considering that in terms of cultivation realm and combat power, Du Wanli was indeed among the top figures of the younger generation in the Ancient Martial World. Although Ye Tianchen now had the confidence to shock and kill Du Wanli, he remained cautious; he was a very prudent person.

Bam!

Their fists and palms clashed. Ye Tianchen delivered a "Vajra Divine Fist" onto Du Wanli’s descending palm. Both stood unwaveringly on the spot, resulting in a draw from that strike, evenly matched. This shocked Du Wanli, leaving him somewhat in disbelief and in awe. Ye Tianchen’s cultivation realm was still at the mid-stage Martial Venerate, and it hadn’t been long since the battle at the Sun Never Sets Mountain, yet now Ye Tianchen could genuinely face off against him without being at a disadvantage. This truly astounded him—how could Ye Tianchen at mid-stage Martial Venerate manage to draw with him at late-stage Martial Venerate? If word got out, no one would believe it!

"You..." Du Wanli was momentarily stunned, looking at Ye Tianchen speechlessly.

"It’s my turn, take this!"

Ye Tianchen shouted in a low voice as the Overlord Fist was unleashed, appearing very plain and unremarkable, without much fluctuation of Martial Arts True Power, but it emanated a strong and domineering aura, embodying supreme strength. He punched towards Du Wanli.

Du Wanli saw Ye Tianchen striking at him and, not sensing any formidable aura, couldn’t help but laugh loudly and roar, "Ignorant! You think you can kill me with just this punch? Do you really think you are..."

Bam!

Before Du Wanli could finish his words, Ye Tianchen’s fist had already landed. Instinctively, he reached out to block, thinking that with his cultivation realm and combat power, handling Ye Tianchen’s punch would be a piece of cake. Little did he know, the moment his palm met Ye Tianchen’s fist, he felt the weight of a thousand pounds, and his arm sank. By the time he tried to muster full strength to resist, it was too late; he was brutally knocked flying out by Ye Tianchen’s Overlord Fist.

Puh!

Getting up from the ground, Du Wanli spat a mouthful of blood, his eyes bloodshot with venomous surprise as he stared at Ye Tianchen. Unable to hold back, he asked, "What Martial Arts Divine Skill is this? With your cultivation realm, you were able to hurt me?"

"Cultivation realm isn’t equivalent to combat power, and combat power isn’t equivalent to cultivation realm. Even an ordinary mortal, by mastering supreme Martial Arts Divine Skills, can defy the heavens and become a strong figure," Ye Tianchen said calmly.

Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, Du Wanli was dumbfounded, looking at Ye Tianchen with a feeling of disbelief. Throughout history, it was the first time he had heard that combat power had nothing to do with cultivation realm; these two had always complemented each other. How could they be separated?

"Nonsense! I was just careless just now; now I’ll kill you!" Du Wanli didn’t believe it, shouting as he fully activated the Martial Arts True Power within him. Waves of powerful energy surged forth, transforming into a Poison Dragon charging towards Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen stood in place, looking coldly at Du Wanli, shaking his head and saying, "Your mind is already in disarray; you can’t bring out real combat power. You’re defeated!"

Boom!

With a single punch, the world submitted, and the entire Five Poison Sect trembled as if the earth had quaked. Ye Tianchen struck, an Overlord Fist, unparalleled in power, bombarding towards Du Wanli. The Poison Dragon, which Du Wanli had condensed with his entire Martial Arts True Power, instantly shattered. Then the aftershock of the punch hit Du Wanli once more, sending him flying backward to the ground, his eyes showing a hint of viciousness, a trace of fear, but mostly disbelief and unwillingness.

"You are defeated. I’ll give you a merciful end," Ye Tianchen said calmly.

"No, I won’t be defeated. I won’t lose. I, Du Wanli, have endured torment since childhood, grew up dancing with all kinds of poisons. Surviving, I naturally have my extraordinary skills. I am a strong one; I am a prodigy among the younger generation. I will make a name for myself, become the Sect Leader of the Five Poison Sect, wield the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner, and roam the invincible path. I... I will use the Poison Saint Intense Flame Banner to kill you..." Du Wanli roared hysterically at the sky.
