Chapter 333: Chapter 330: Invincible Strength

Hissss, hissss, hissss...

The sound of ripping fabric filled the air as the strength of Sword Qi and the Blood Seal intertwined. The Sword Qi tore through the Blood Seal, creating successive tears in the void, constantly producing one crack after another. The Sword Qi, although ripping the Blood Seal apart, was also constantly met with a backlash, its power being diminished and leaving behind regions of true vacuum.

Zing, zing, zing!

In the next instant, the two entwined attacks erupted almost simultaneously, bursting into a display of fireworks. Beams cascading like meteor showers shot off in all directions, hitting the nearby mountain peaks and leaving behind countless pockmarked craters.

In the crowd, quite a few people scattered, avoiding the aftermath that resembled a meteor shower.

Boom, boom, boom!

The ground beneath Ye Xuan and the Demon Dragon Young Master was completely shattered and fragmented. After the terrifying aftershocks had dissipated, two figures emerged one after another.

Atop a slowly descending rock, the Demon Dragon Young Master stood firmly, quickly calming his boiling demonic power. Looking at the attack that faded away like fireworks before him, a smile spread across his face, "How about it, Ye Xuan? Your strongest move is no match for me now. This battle, you won’t win against me again!"

Excitement surged in the heart of the Demon Dragon Young Master. Last time, he had been defeated by this very sword strike, but now, Ye Xuan’s sword would no longer pose the same threat.

"We are in trouble. Ye Xuan’s strongest sword move can no longer defeat the Demon Dragon Young Master."

Concern spread across Yu Yi’s pretty face. The situation she had feared the most was unfolding. The Demon Dragon Young Master clearly intended to defeat Ye Xuan at all costs, and the current situation was indeed not looking good for Ye Xuan.

"Humph, this young pretender has only sat on the throne for a month, and it looks like it’s time for a new ruler. It seems, this kid is nothing but a joke."

Young Master Blood Python grinned, revealing a sinister smile that matched Young Master Hu’s at his side.

"Ye Xuan, I’m sure you’ve run out of tricks by now. Next, you are bound to lose!"

With a "crack," the ground inside the battle ring was crushed underfoot as the Demon Dragon Young Master rocketed into the sky. His clenched fist crackled with electricity as he launched a ferocious punch towards Ye Xuan, shaking the void.

Facing him, Ye Xuan remained composed and indifferent, "Murderous moves are often time-sensitive. While you are pondering how to break it, it may no longer be my killing move."

With those words falling, Ye Xuan sheathed his sword. His internal True Qi started to surge, his strength reaching an extreme level. Even his skin began to glow with a hint of blackness, as if something was about to break through its surface.

Now, Ye Xuan was but a step away from transmuting into a demonic state, with his bodily strength reaching its limit. The power of the Five Dragons was fully mobilized.

"Leaderless Dragons!"

Ye Xuan gathered his breath. Just as the Demon Dragon Young Master’s punch was about to strike, he suddenly launched his own punch. In front of him, eight True Qi Light Dragons surged forth like an overflowing river, brutally clashing with the Demon Dragon Young Master.

The eight massive True Qi Light Dragons converged in one direction—where the Demon Dragon Young Master was. Deafening roars echoed, and the immense power they contained could almost be palpably felt even by the surrounding onlookers.

"What kind of fist skill is this?"

The True Qi Light Dragons swept toward the Demon Dragon Young Master, causing his pupils to contract sharply. Even he felt somewhat overpowered by this force, overwhelmed by a sense of suppression.

"Break for me!"

However, like an arrow already released from the bow, the Demon Dragon Young Master could not retract his momentum. He could only push forward and throw his punch. His right arm, like a Black Dragon opening its jaws, lunged out fiercely to collide with Ye Xuan’s punch.

Boom!

Amidst the astonished eyes of onlookers, the anticipated moment of impact occurred. But in the next instant, the Black Dragon on the right arm of the Demon Dragon Young Master burst apart, disintegrating into nothingness. His right arm fractured with a "crack," and the Demon Dragon Young Master himself, unable to withstand the force, spat a column of blood high into the air and was hurled backward, smashing into a hillside far away and leaving behind a large hole.

"This..."

Both Young Master Blood Python and Young Master Hu turned pale as they looked at the large hole created by the Demon Dragon Young Master. They couldn’t help but swallow hard.

Their gaze shifted to the slender figure in the sky, and they took a deep breath. Under such circumstances, did the Demon Dragon Young Master ultimately lose to that man after all?

"He won, this guy... he really didn’t disappoint."

Yu Yi also paused momentarily, a smile finally appearing on her pretty face.

Everyone was still recovering from the shock of the battle. Their eyes now carried a complex look, and deep in their hearts, many firmly cemented the idea that Ye Xuan was indeed a formidable adversary. Even the Demon Dragon Young Master couldn’t keep up with Ye Xuan’s rate of improvement. Soon, his strength would likely evolve him into a major figure of Sky Demon Mountain, one not to be trifled with.

The Demon Dragon Young Master tasted defeat yet again, completely losing the chance to contend for the throne. It appeared highly unlikely that he would have another opportunity in the future.

Ye Xuan’s brilliance was unstoppable among the younger generation.

...

After the great battle ended, the Demon Dragon Young Master was taken back to Demon Dragon Peak by his subordinates to heal his injuries. As for Ye Xuan, he returned to Skyfire Hall with Yu Yi and Little Xi.

"Ye Xuan, what kind of fortuitous encounter did you have that allowed your strength to improve so swiftly?"

Upon returning to Skyfire Hall, Yu Yi couldn’t help but ask. She really wanted to know why Ye Xuan had progressed so quickly. When he first arrived, his strength was similar to hers, but now, he had firmly suppressed the young overlord of the Sky Demon Mountain, the Demon Dragon Young Master, leaving him with no chance of turning the tables.

"Everyone’s opportunities are different. Even if I were to tell you, it wouldn’t help you."

Ye Xuan shook his head. There were two big secrets about him. One was that he was the reincarnation of the Martial God, something he would never tell anyone. The second was the secret of his bloodline; Elder Hao, who had guarded the Demon Transformation Pool, had already reminded him that the fewer people who knew about it, the better. Although he believed Yu Yi had no ill intentions toward him, this kind of thing usually couldn’t be guaranteed unless the relationship was very close.

Besides, even the closest of friends might betray one another.

"If you don’t want to say it, then forget it."

Yu Yi pursed her lips, thinking Ye Xuan was being deliberately obscure, and she was somewhat unhappy.

"It’s not that I won’t say it, but rather that even if I did, it would not help you. You just need to put more effort into cultivation. Your future achievements may not necessarily be below those of Long Guihai." Ye Xuan said with a faint smile. Yu Yi’s talent was not weak; even though her bloodline level was not as high as that of the Demon Dragon Young Master, she was no less exceptional in other aspects.

In this world, there is never a shortage of geniuses. You can’t always have extraordinary talent because even if your talent is excellent, there will always be someone whose talent surpasses yours. Your talent can never be the highest. To surpass others, you must rely on your postnatal efforts. The sooner a martial artist understands this, the better.

Even Ye Xuan, who had inherited his previous life’s exceptional comprehension and treasure trove of martial arts, still practiced almost every moment, demonstrating extraordinary diligence.

"I got it, I got it."

Yu Yi nodded, though she didn’t quite agree in her heart. If effort really made a difference, then there wouldn’t be so many mediocre people.

After chatting for a while, Yu Yi stood up and went back to her room. Ye Xuan then took Little Xi back to the side hall where he stayed.

Little Xi was indeed very beautiful, with a slender figure that, under the soft glow of the lamp, made her skin seem as delicate as cream. Just as Ye Xuan sat down to rest, she brought over a white jade porcelain dish, upon which rested a pot of tea and a teacup.

She placed the porcelain dish on the wooden table next to Ye Xuan, stretched out her delicate, scallion-like fingers, and placed the teacup in front of him, filling it with tea.

"Thank you."

Ye Xuan picked up the teacup and took a small sip.

"You’re too kind, sir. Serving you is my duty," said Little Xi, shaking her head, somewhat flustered.

"No need for such words in my presence."

Ye Xuan’s eyes brightened slightly as he looked at Little Xi and said, "I’ve been busy with the competition and cultivation recently and have neglected you."

Ye Xuan had purchased Little Xi at a Black Market auction some time ago, but due to his busy schedule, he had not much leisure to attend to other matters.

"Your talent is actually quite good. You’re currently cultivating a low-level Heavenly Grade water attribute cultivation technique, which is not strong in combat and hampers your strength. Would you like to cultivate a higher-level technique and strive to become a higher-level martial artist someday?"

Ye Xuan had practiced the Qi Observation Skill in his previous life, making him more insightful than most when it came to people’s bones, meridians, and martial arts aptitude. The Little Xi before him had excellent martial arts potential and could even be considered outstanding.

However, Little Xi had been nothing more than a female slave on the Black Market. They had allowed her to cultivate to the Demon King realm only to fetch a better price, with no real intention of proper cultivation training.

"Sir, how could I..."

Little Xi was caught off guard and looked at Ye Xuan blankly. If she hadn’t misheard, Ye Xuan wanted to teach her a higher-level cultivation technique? But she was just a lowly female slave...

"I didn’t ask you that. Just tell me, do you want to?" Ye Xuan shook his head and continued to ask calmly.

"I... I want to!"

Little Xi seemed hesitant, her face flushing red as she quickly nodded. For anyone, this opportunity was not to be missed.

In the Chaotic Sea Domain, without strong power, one would inevitably be looked down upon and disparaged. Even though Little Xi was just a woman, she too had the determination to become a powerholder, especially after experiencing the loss of her family, homelessness, and being treated as an object—a resolve that had only solidified.
