Chapter 941: Chapter 940: 【Is Ye Tianchen also a Demon?】

Ye Tianchen made his move, unleashing a series of "Overlord Fist" attacks at the Great Achievement Realm, forcing Du Tianqi to also make a move. He used the most powerful move of the Five Poison Palm to confront Ye Tianchen’s ultimate secret technique of the Overlord Fist—the Conqueror’s Fist. The battle reached a ferocious level, destroying the powerful formation set up in the central hall of the Five Poison Sect. If not for the protective formation dissipating most of the power, the entire Five Poison Sect might have been razed to the ground. Even so, more than half of the Five Poison Sect was destroyed, shaking the entire sect. The old masters who had been in seclusion for ages and were the most formidable and terrifying beings, couldn’t sit still any longer. No one had expected Ye Tianchen to truly break into the Five Poison Sect and, regardless of anything, already destroy more than half of it. For an ancient Immortal Sect, this was both shocking and astonishing. Will Ye Tianchen truly annihilate the entire Five Poison Sect with his own power?

When Du Tianqi thought Ye Tianchen had exhausted his strength and could do nothing more than wait for death, Ye Tianchen’s next move truly startled Du Tianqi, leaving him in awe. It was enough to shock someone who once reached the Martial Saint Realm on Earth, able to roam freely across Earth’s Three Ancient Martial Worlds without hindrance. What Ye Tianchen achieved was indeed something that left Du Tianqi flabbergasted and deeply impressed.

Crossing Tribulation, at the most crucial moment, Ye Tianchen chose to undergo Crossing Tribulation. At this moment, was Ye Tianchen seeking death, or was he trying to bring about Du Tianqi’s death? The Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation descending upon Ye Tianchen was spine-chilling for Du Tianqi. It was his first time witnessing someone going through a tribulation of merely the Late Martial Venerate realm, yet the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation was overwhelming and annihilating, as if apocalyptic. Could this truly be a tribulation for someone in the Martial Venerate cultivation realm? Even during Du Tianqi’s own Martial Saint Heavenly Punishment, such ferocity had never been seen. Does this indicate that Ye Tianchen is going to become even stronger, another defiant demon?

"No, I don’t believe it, you little brat, choosing to cross tribulation now is not to kill me, but to kill yourself!" Du Tianqi shouted loudly at Ye Tianchen.

"Old thing, then let’s see. I’ve put up with you for long enough, endured you for long enough, now I’ll kill you!" Ye Tianchen said coldly, allowing the first thunder punishment, as thick as a bucket, to crash down upon his head from the sky!

Du Tianqi frowned, stopped speaking, and his entire being surged with a powerful killing intent. His eyes stared fiercely at Ye Tianchen, eager to tear him to pieces. It was his own carelessness earlier for not using Martial Saint Realm power to kill him from the start, allowing Ye Tianchen to exert his Tribulation Transcendence cultivation. At this moment, Ye Tianchen gave Du Tianqi an impression of pressure, shock, and unimaginable intimidation power.

Of course, Du Tianqi was once a powerhouse in the Martial Saint Realm. On this Earth, long unsuited for cultivation due to its extremely scarce spiritual energy, Du Tianqi managed to break through to the Martial Saint Realm in such an environment, becoming one of Earth’s top few elite warriors. It shows his talent and understanding were not something easily daunted.

Only after a brief moment of shock did Du Tianqi regain his composure, coldly watching Ye Tianchen’s approach with a strong killing intent flowing from himself. He couldn’t believe Ye Tianchen could be so strong as to have the power to kill him. Even if Ye Tianchen broke through to the Late Stage Martial Venerate, so what? He himself reverted to the Martial Saint realm’s cultivation and fighting power. Although maintaining it wasn’t possible for long, with his lifespan drastically shortening, he could still kill Ye Tianchen, this major threat, this young martial artist with heaven-defying talent. To him, as long as he could eliminate Ye Tianchen, it was all worth it, which shows just how much of an impact Ye Tianchen had on him.

The more crucial reason is that Du Tianqi felt assured. He didn’t believe Ye Tianchen could maintain such formidable battle power while undergoing tribulation under his interference. Despite the strong ability he was currently displaying, Du Tianqi had experienced things Ye Tianchen hadn’t. He had also endured powerful Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulations, and the reason every martial artist chooses a quiet, desolate place to cross tribulation is to avoid external disturbances. The Thunder Tribulation itself is already formidable, with the slightest carelessness resulting in divine demise. Therefore, every martial artist is extremely cautious, sometimes even hiding away when crossing tribulations. In a martial arts world where the strong devour the weak, who hasn’t killed or been on the brink of being killed? Enemies surely exist. If discovered during tribulation, already dangerous enough, and attacked by enemies, it could truly lead to near-certain death.

For a martial artist, indeed, one’s own Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation being so powerful deters others from nearing lightly. If another martial artist gets tainted by such an aura, they would be struck down by heaven itself. Being tainted by such tribulation aura means accompanying the tribulation, which is very dangerous. Countless have died under the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation’s wrath, many strong ones faced annihilation at critical moments, ending in a tragic fate of being scattered in soul and form. The Thunder Tribulation is absolutely not a joke!

Therefore, Du Tianqi can’t believe Ye Tianchen, under his eyes, could cross tribulation while killing him simultaneously. Judging by the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation Ye Tianchen faced, it’s appallingly mismatched with his cultivation level’s appropriate tribulation; It’s unimaginably strong and eerie. Just handling such a Thunder Tribulation is extremely challenging. Can Ye Tianchen spare any energy to attack him while enduring this, against someone as formidable as Du Tianqi? With Du Tianqi’s cultivation and strength, during Ye Tianchen’s strenuous tribulation, just delivering a fatal blow spells doom for Ye Tianchen. Therefore, Ye Tianchen choosing this moment for the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation in front of him, is pure suicidal behavior.

"Hmph, your Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation is indeed strong enough. You think using it to kill me is a good method, but have you considered whether you can withstand such a powerful Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation? I’m afraid before you even make a move against me, you’ll be turned to ashes by the thunder, and when it descends upon you, as long as I land a single strike, you’ll have no escape but death!" Du Tianqi said with utmost confidence.

"Old dog, watch as I annihilate you now!"

Swoosh!

Ye Tianchen transformed into a streak of golden light, disappearing into the sky, but the thunder tribulation that descended like a sizable bucket followed closely, hunting him down. A martial artist cannot escape the thunder tribulation by running during the process, no matter how far or fast you go. The Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation will arrive immediately. Only by using one’s formidable cultivation and powerful treasures can they withstand and pass the tribulation, reaching a new cultivation realm and a new battle power stage. Otherwise, just by running away, sooner or later, the tribulation will catch up, and by that time, having consumed a vast amount of Martial Arts True Power would only lead to exhaustion and inevitably death!

"You ignorant dog, arrogant and conceited. The stronger the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation that a martial artist crosses, the deeper the cultivation realm they can touch, and the more formidable the power they gain post-tribulation. But, the premise is that they must survive the tribulation; otherwise, it’s a dead end. You idiot to the extreme, crossing a tribulation in front of me is courting death!" Du Tianqi forcefully struck towards Ye Tianchen, shouting loudly.

Boom! A loud crash echoed, and indeed, Du Tianqi’s cultivation battle power was formidable, without which Ye Tianchen wouldn’t have risked crossing the tribulation at this time to annihilate Du Tianqi with the power of crossing tribulation. This was indeed a gamble for him, as Du Tianqi had once again ascended to the Martial Saint Realm, something Ye Tianchen hadn’t anticipated, forcing him to use his prior preparations to obliterate Du Tianqi and the entire Five Poison Sect with the power of crossing tribulation.

Bang!

Ye Tianchen’s momentum did not diminish, still transforming into a streak of golden light, escaping the bombardment of the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation with the fastest speed through Divine Movement Skill, causing the tribulation to hover above him, unable to strike down. Simultaneously, facing Du Tianqi’s extremely powerful palm, Ye Tianchen also unleashed an Overlord Fist. At this point, he could only employ his most formidable Martial Arts Divine Skill, not daring to be careless.

Boom!

Ye Tianchen was shaken back two steps. He paid no heed and couldn’t afford a moment’s hesitation, still charging towards Du Tianqi, aiming to strike him at close range, leaving no room for this vicious old man to counterattack. What Ye Tianchen didn’t realize was that what he was doing was enough to shock the entire Martial Arts World. It was widely known that every martial artist hides during crossing tribulations, fearing others might find out and interfere, leading to their destruction. Yet, Ye Tianchen dared to do the opposite, crossing the tribulation in front of a formidable enemy, intending to kill with the power of the tribulation. Ye Tianchen might be one of the few in the entire Martial Arts World who dared to do so. Is he not a defiant demon if not anything else? (To be continued.
