Chapter 12531 Whose Courage?

Chapter 12531 Whose Courage?

"Paiyue?"

Ye Chen looked at her.

The little girl said, "Yes, it means 'moonlight of yesteryear,' easy to remember, right? And you, big brother, what's your name?"

Just as Ye Chen was about to give an alias, several more people entered the dilapidated temple to take shelter from the rain.

"The weather in this Yin-Yang Heavenly Continent is truly unbearable, never letting up for a single day."

The leader was quite resentful. He entered the dilapidated temple and his eyes met Ye Chen's. Then, both of them were stunned.

"You are the Lord of Reincarnation!"

The man shouted, his face filled with disbelief and shock.

“Su Wujiu”.

Ye Chen's gaze turned cold. The person was actually Su Wujiu from the Qiu Ming family, and the people beside him were all disciples of the Qiu Ming family.

Judging from their appearance, they were clearly also after the Starry Sea Destiny Orbiting Disc.

What a small world! Ye Chen never expected to run into Su Wujiu here.

When Su Wujiu called out "Lord of Reincarnation," he directly exposed Ye Chen's identity.

Inside the dilapidated temple, the people who had been discussing the matter suddenly fell silent, all staring at Ye Chen in utter astonishment.

The little girl, Xiyue, also looked astonished, covering her mouth as she said, "So... big brother is actually... the Lord of Reincarnation?"

Everyone present was a person of considerable cultivation. Upon hearing Su Wujiu's words, they immediately felt that the heavenly secrets were in accord and there was no falsehood in them. The Lord of Reincarnation was indeed right before their eyes.

"Ah, I didn't expect that you, Lord of Reincarnation, would also come to Yin Yang Heaven Continent."

Su Wujiu gritted his teeth, his face full of resentment, and looked at Xi Yue beside Ye Chen, saying in a deep voice,
"And who is this little girl? She looks so much like you, is she your daughter?"

"My daughter?"

Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat for no reason. He looked at Xi Yue and realized that she did look somewhat similar to him, but being so close to the situation, he dared not say that they were really alike.

"No, I just met the older brother."

Xi Yue stood up, looked at Su Wujiu, and said, "Brother, you don't need to look so fierce. Let's talk things out."

Su Wujiu spat and said, "Get out of my way! I still have a score to settle with the Lord of Reincarnation!"

As he spoke, Su Wujiu drew his longsword with a clang, his eyes filled with a chilling killing intent as he glared at Ye Chen.

Several Qiu Ming family disciples behind him also drew their swords.

The people in the dilapidated temple were terrified by the tense scene. They all got up and fled outside, ignoring the torrential rain outside, and hurriedly escaped.

Ye Chen's reputation on the other side of the starry sky is already very well-known. Everyone knows that wherever Ye Chen is, once a battle breaks out, it will most likely be earth-shattering.

Only the little girl, Xiyue, didn't run away. She stood beside Ye Chen and saw that Su Wujiu had already drawn his sword. She hurriedly said, "Don't fight! Fighting is not good."

“My mother said, ‘Pity us people, for there is so much suffering in this world. All the bitter fruits of this world are born from conflict. If everyone had great love and a peaceful and tranquil heart, there would be no more suffering.’”

Despite her young age, she spoke profound truths with remarkable fluency.

Su Wujiu's face twitched, and he shouted, "Little girl, stop babbling! Get out of my way or I'll kill you!"

Although he hated Ye Chen, he was, after all, a genius from a prestigious family, and he wasn't so heartless as to indiscriminately kill young girls.

Ye Chen sneered and said, "What, I didn't kill you last time in the Reverse World Demon Ruins, so now you're coming here to die?"

"I'll give you a chance. Get out of here right now, and I might spare your life."

Ye Chen held his sword horizontally across his chest, but did not draw it immediately, because this was, after all, Yin Yang Heavenly Continent, and he had previously offended the people of the Slaughtering Dao Sect.

If we were to escalate the conflict and attract the attention of the Lu Dao Sect, things would be very bad.

After all, even the sect leader of the Lu Dao Sect, Ancestor Ting You, was severely injured by him. The conflict between him and the Lu Dao Sect is not something that can be easily resolved.

He wanted to kill Su Wujiu directly, but to be on the safe side, he was unwilling to act rashly, lest he attract the attention of the Lu Dao Sect.

Su Wujiu, his face contorted with rage, retorted, "You're nothing but a piece of trash who only knows how to rely on external forces!"

"Without divine authority, you are nothing but a dog!"

"Look what this is?"

Su Wujiu raised his longsword, channeling spiritual energy into its blade. With a hum, a powerful Yin-Yang Dao energy emanated from the sword, instantly enveloping the entire dilapidated temple.

"This is……"

Ye Chen looked closely and saw that there was a black and white stone embedded in the body of Su Wujiu's sword.

That's the Yin-Yang Sacrifice Stone!
Moreover, it was not an ordinary Yin-Yang Divine Stone, but a divine stone condensed from a large amount of stone marrow. The effect of one divine stone was equivalent to that of hundreds of others.

Under the impact of the Yin-Yang Profane God Stone's aura, Ye Chen immediately felt that many divine powers were suppressed.

That was not suppression at the level of power, but suppression at the level of laws. Yin and Yang suppressed the divine path, just as a father suppressed a son.

The seventy-two pillar gods were born from the will of the primordial beginning. They are all "sons" of the primordial beginning, and the primordial beginning is in turn the "son" of the Yin-Yang Dao.

This Yin-Yang Blasphemy Stone gathers the primordial Yin-Yang power, and its suppressive effect on the Pillar God's authority is extremely powerful, suppressing both the law level and the bloodline level.

"How are you feeling? Hehe, feeling completely drained?"

"You actually dare to come to Yin Yang Heavenly Continent, who gave you the courage?"

"Don't you know that there's something in this new continent that can restrain you?"

Su Wujiu grinned maliciously. The Yin-Yang Sacrifice Stone could suppress divine authority, which was perfect for restraining Ye Chen.

Ye Chen's expression darkened, as he felt his many divine powers being suppressed by an inexplicable force.

Seeing Su Wujiu's murderous aura and Ye Chen's apparent restraint, Xi Yue panicked and said:
"Calm down, everyone. If you have any disputes, you can sit down and talk it out. There's no need to fight."

As she spoke, her slender hands formed a hand seal, from which a layer of compassionate, peaceful, and warm golden light was released.

Under the convergence of golden light, the character "慈" (compassion) even emerged.

Compassion, loving-kindness.

The compassionate golden light shone upon Ye Chen and Su Wujiu, and both of them felt their minds become much more peaceful, as if they were cleansed of all worldly desires, free from dust and filth, filled with great love, and enjoying ultimate bliss.

Su Wujiu's fierce gaze quickly calmed down, but then he suddenly snapped back to reality, breaking out in a cold sweat. He gritted his teeth and shouted at Xi Yue:

"Little girl, what kind of sorcery have you used? How dare you disturb my Dao heart!"

For a fleeting moment, his Dao heart was in turmoil, and all his fighting spirit, sharp and murderous thoughts were soothed by an aura of compassion and love.

If Ye Chen had made an assassination attempt at that moment, he would have been dead for sure.

But at that moment, Ye Chen's mind was also calm and peaceful, and he had no intention of killing.

At this moment, Ye Chen also regained consciousness and looked at Xi Yue in disbelief, asking, "Little girl, who did you learn your magic from? Where is that person?"

The spell that Xi Yue used actually carried an aura of compassion and great love. This aura of the law of great love reminded Ye Chen of the Goddess of Great Love, Feng Qingxue, in an instant.

"It was...it was my mother who taught me."

Xi Yue's face was a little pale, partly because she was frightened by Su Wujiu, and partly because her compassionate spell had been broken, causing her some backlash.

Su Wujiu shouted at her, "Get out of my way! Or I'll kill you!"

Fearing that the Yin-Yang Divine Stone's restraining effect would fail, he immediately drew his sword and stabbed at Ye Chen.

The Yin-Yang Sacrifice Stone does indeed have the effect of suppressing divine authority, but it is not a panacea. Over time, people will develop resistance to it.

Once Ye Chen develops resistance and becomes unafraid of the Yin-Yang Sacrifice Stone, then Su Wujiu will be no match for Ye Chen.

With the One-Word Technique unleashed, Su Wujiu's sword strike was fierce and unstoppable, like a lightning-fast, swift and sharp blade.

Xi Yue felt the sword wind was fierce and dared not resist, stumbling backward.

Meanwhile, several disciples of the Qiu Ming family beside Su Wujiu also joined the attack.

With Su Wujiu at the core, the group attacked Ye Chen together.

"You think you can kill me?"

Ye Chen snorted. Although his divine authority was suppressed, he still had plenty of ways to achieve it.

"Heavenly Death Abyss Sword!"

As the Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword was swung, boundless abyssal sword energy was released, even exuding an aura of death.

This is the Sword Emperor's Abyss Sword Dao!
After advancing to the Abyss Realm, Ye Chen became even more adept at wielding the Abyss Sword Dao.

With a clanging and snapping sound, the weapons that Su Wujiu and the others had used to attack were all cut in half by Ye Chen's sword.

The Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword is too sharp. Even under the restraint of three seals, its sharpness is enough to easily cut through gold and iron. Only top-tier divine weapons can contend with Ye Chen.

"what!"

Su Wujiu was horrified. His weapon was severed in a single exchange, and the Yin-Yang Sacrifice Stone embedded in his sword was shredded into fragments by Ye Chen's sword energy.

He never expected that Ye Chen could be so ferocious even with his divine power suppressed.

The sharp edge of the Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword rushed towards us, and even more terrifying was the deep aura of death!

That's the abyssal death energy of the Absolute Abyss Sword Dao!
Several disciples around Su Wujiu fell to the ground and died silently, either killed by the sharp sword energy of the Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword or by the oppressive power of the Death Sword Dao, dying instantly.

Su Wujiu also felt an immense pressure coming down on him. With a loud bang, a terrifying storm erupted from his body, as the Storm God's authority was activated.

He possesses half of the divine power of the storm, the other half being physical.

At this moment, the Yin-Yang Divine Stone had shattered, but the shattered stone released an even stronger suppressive force.

However, Su Wujiu seemed unaffected and was still able to activate his divine power, unleashing a tremendous storm that completely crushed Ye Chen's sword intent.

"Damn it!"

"Lord of Reincarnation, you only rely on external things!"

Su Wujiu looked at the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword in Ye Chen's hand with immense anger.

If Ye Chen's weapon hadn't been so sharp, he wouldn't have been in such a sorry state.

With a loud boom, Su Wujiu unleashed his Storm God Power, his fist carrying the might of heaven and earth's wind and thunder, smashing wildly toward Ye Chen's head.

"Foreign object?"

"Then I'll show you this move!"

"Radiant Corona Dharma Form, open!"

Ye Chen's tongue thundered as he withdrew the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword. With a stomp of his foot, a boundless radiance of sunlight erupted from his body, the rolling pure white light revealing unparalleled sacred mystery.

This is a newly comprehended technique, born from the Yang principle of the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao. It contains the pure Yang power of extreme strength and Yang energy. If used in conjunction with the Sun Corona Bead, billions of layers of sun corona halos will bloom, and the overwhelming sunlight will burn everything, wash everything away, and crush everything.

But at this moment, Ye Chen did not use the Corona Heavenly Bead, because he did not need to deal with Su Wujiu.

He simply mobilized the pure Yang power inherent in his body, unfolding a solar radiance behind him.

The image of the Buddha was a hundred feet tall. It crashed through the temple with a thunderous roar, even evaporating the rainwater within a radius of dozens of miles, causing the torrential rain to stop instantly.

The Dharma image was a human figure, in the likeness of Ye Chen himself. Behind the human figure were hundreds of corona halos, layer upon layer of nested corona halos, which looked incredibly dazzling and radiant.

Under the radiant glow of the sun's corona, the world was enveloped in ultimate light, a pure white expanse where nothing could be seen.

Ultimate light and ultimate darkness are actually the same thing; both mean that nothing can be seen.

Su Wujiu was stunned. His angry and wild expression suddenly turned into confusion. All the pride and confidence in his heart seemed to have been crushed and evaporated in an instant.

The boundless, scorching sunlight seeped into every pore of his body, and he felt as if he were about to become light, to ascend to heaven, and to melt away completely.

His divine power over the storm was immediately suppressed, the storm on his body extinguished, and his originally fierce and domineering fists suddenly went limp.

When the blazing sun rises, all phenomena cease to exist.

The supreme and sacred Primordial Yang Hua is enough to crush all divine authority!
Suddenly, Su Wujiu saw a black shadow flash by in the pure white world, and then a sharp pain shot through his lower abdomen. He couldn't help but groan, arching his back like a shrimp, his body spasming, his throat dry heaving, and his feet backing away.

But Ye Chen's punch struck his lower abdomen, specifically his dantian.

"You're quite robust to have survived one of my punches."

Ye Chen coldly looked at Su Wujiu. With his Sun Corona Dharma Avatar activated, even a simple punch contained the power of the supreme blazing sun.

But this punch failed to kill Su Wujiu.

The latter refined the physical body of the Storm Ancestor, and its physical strength is still quite formidable.

"Then pick me up again..."

Just as Ye Chen was about to unleash another punch, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart.

The sharp pain came abruptly, as if someone had suddenly stabbed my heart with a sharp sword.

Ye Chen's breath stopped for a moment, his heart felt pierced, and terrifying darkness, like a tidal wave, surged into his mind, stretching across the timeline.

The solar corona dissipated, the endless light in the sky and earth dissipated, and the surrounding environment could be seen again. The rain that had just evaporated began to pour down again.

In the pouring rain, Ye Chen's body convulsed, he clutched his heart tightly, and an incredulous expression appeared on his face.

He felt his vision go black, and in the boundless darkness before him, he hallucinated and saw Su Yunli's figure.

Su Yunli, corrupted by the abyss and transformed into a demon, was stabbing Ye Chen through the heart with a single sword strike.

It's a dream!

Nightmare!

The nightmare has come true!
Ye Chen almost suffocated, remembering what Su Yunli had said. She said she had a nightmare in which she turned into a demon and pierced Ye Chen's heart.

This is a nightmare brought about by the eternal slumber of the abyss.

This nightmare twisted reality, dealing a fatal blow to Ye Chen's heart!
It is the punishment of the abyss!

The Abyss is using Su Yunli to assassinate Ye Chen!

Su Wujiu was stunned. He had thought that he was going to be killed by Ye Chen, but unexpectedly, Ye Chen suddenly fell, as if he had been cursed.

"How is this going?"

Su Wujiu was puzzled, but seeing Ye Chen's suffocating breathing, his head covered in sweat, and his body convulsing in pain, it didn't seem like an act.

He paused for a moment, then burst into laughter and said:

"Lord of Reincarnation, have you been cursed by the abyss? Then I won't be polite."

He saw that Ye Chen was emanating a dark aura from the abyss, and it seemed that he had been cursed by the abyss.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He quickly took a deep breath, regulated his breathing, and then activated his Storm Divine Authority, directly gathering a storm into a storm sword, which he then thrust fiercely towards Ye Chen's body.

"I've come to see you off!"

But then, with a clang, a long sword suddenly appeared from the side, blocking Su Wujiu's sword strike.

"Don't hurt big brother!"

But it was Xi Yue who drew her sword.

She was only ten years old, small and weak in cultivation. At this moment, her body was covered in blood and her life was burning. She was risking her young and tender life to forcefully resist Su Wujiu's storm sword.

Even though they risked their lives, it was still extremely difficult.

"Ok?"

Su Wujiu was taken aback, realizing that within the Xiyue Sword Technique, there was a very hidden power of law, a power belonging to the end times!

Although this power of law was very shallow and had no destructive power, it really surprised Su Wujiu and made him begin to doubt Xi Yue's identity.

"Little girl, who taught you this swordsmanship? What's your relationship with the Temple of the End?"

Su Wujiu shouted.

The Temple of the End is one of the giants of Yin Yang Heavenly Continent. He was afraid that Xi Yue was a member of the Temple of the End, which would make things difficult to handle.

Xi Yue was suppressed by his storm sword aura, her face was pale, and her breathing was labored, so she was unable to speak.
Ye Chen also realized what was happening and activated the Corona Heavenly Pearl. Strands of pure Yang energy from the Corona Sun cleansed his entire body, washing away the curse damage from the Abyss Nightmare.

Soon, the illusions and darkness before his eyes faded, Ye Chen's spirits recovered, and the many timelines that had just been extinguished came back to life.

This is the blessing of the Corona Dzi Bead, the highest and most intense sun, which is simply magnificent, able to revive the dead and warm and nourish all living beings struggling and sinking in the darkness.

Ye Chen's spirits had recovered, but his heart still ached faintly. This was not a mental pain, but a real wound in his heart, a small hole that was like an indelible scar.

It was Su Yunli who stabbed him, leaving a scar.

The dream distorted reality, and Ye Chen's heart was truly injured. Fortunately, he had the Corona Dzi Bead in hand, which offset the damage from the nightmare's curse.

However, the scar on his heart still made it difficult for Ye Chen to regain his fighting ability immediately.

"Heavenly Ancestor, let me help you!"

At this moment, Jun Tianwu spoke up in the Reincarnation Graveyard. He still addressed Ye Chen as Tianzu. Seeing Ye Chen in danger, he immediately became eager to fight.

"Ah."

Ye Chen nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that the abyssal black aura on Ye Chen's body was fading and that he was clearly recovering, Su Wujiu was startled and shouted, "I'll kill you first!"

With a tremor of his Storm God Sword, he repelled Xi Yue, and then slashed towards Ye Chen's heart.

But in the next instant, Ye Chen reached out and actually grabbed the blade of his sword.

At this moment, Ye Chen's aura suddenly became powerful, his muscles bulged out, even bursting his clothes, and he became incredibly rugged and wild.

After seizing Su Wujiu's Storm Divine Sword, Ye Chen shook it violently, shattering the entire sword.

"Su Wujiu, you will die today!"

"Heavenly Martial Dragon Fist!"

Ye Chen's eyes were fierce. He suddenly threw a punch, unleashing a shocking burst of martial arts power. His fist surged with qi, exploding into a dragon shape. It was magnificent and awe-inspiring. With one dragon punch, he sent Su Wujiu flying.
