Chapter 12589 Utter Destruction!

Chapter 12589 Utter Destruction!
Ancestor Tianwen had very complicated feelings. He didn't have any hatred for Ye Chen; he just wanted the Nine Yang True Roc.

At this moment, on the arena, with the further suppression of the earth veins, Li Yejun's cultivation level finally dropped back to the Life Source Realm.

"Chance!"

Ye Chen's sharp eyes immediately caught this point. He tossed the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword up and manipulated the skeleton behind him to extend its bone hand to catch it.

The Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword swelled slightly, its sharp light gleaming.

"Li Ye Jun, you've lost!"

Then, Ye Chen controlled the skeleton and swung his sword fiercely at Li Yejun.

He didn't use any swordplay power because he wanted to conserve his energy for the later matches; he simply delivered a flat slash.

However, under the power of the Primordial Divine Remains and the sharpness of the Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword, Ye Chen's sword strike was also incredibly fierce.

Li Yejun froze, wanting to raise his sword to block, but the fierce attack had already exhausted his strength.

At this moment, his cultivation level was suppressed back to the Life Source Realm, and he felt completely empty, with no strength left.
With a soft thud, Ye Chen slashed Li Yejun with his sword, sending him flying off the stage.

Li Yejun was seriously injured and was taken back by the people from the Temple of the End.

After all, Li Yejun possessed the foundation of the early stage of the Heavenly Dao Realm, so it wouldn't be easy for Ye Chen to kill him.

Ye Chen didn't use his full strength for the sake of the subsequent matches, which allowed Li Yejun to survive.

It has to be said that it's quite a pity.

However, winning the championship is the most important thing, so Ye Chen must conserve his energy as much as possible.

The Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect is clearly targeting him. Even though Li Yejun has broken the rules, no one has come out to stop him.

If Ye Chen hadn't been so experienced in combat and knew to use the Primordial Divine Remains to defend, he might have already lost.

After retrieving the Primordial Divine Remains, Ye Chen felt pain in every bone of his body.

In the Reincarnation Graveyard, Haotian Lanshen said:
"Ye Chen, you can actually let me take action."

Ye Chen grinned and said, "Let's save some trump cards for later."

If Haotian Lanshen makes a move, he might be exposed, so Ye Chen must be careful and prepare a cover in advance.

But since the incident happened so suddenly, there was obviously no chance to cover it up.

On the Nine Heavens Reincarnation Alliance side, everyone was stunned to see Ye Chen overcome the danger and even turn defeat into victory.

"Phew, did Brother Ye Chen win?"

"Scared me."

"I thought something bad was going to happen."

Su Yunli breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the stunned look on the referee elder's face beside Ye Chen's arena, and seeing that he hadn't announced the result, she shouted loudly,

"Hey, old man, it's time to announce the results!"

The elder referee finally came to his senses and said in a trembling voice, "The winner... the winner is Ye Chen."

With this pronouncement, it meant that Ye Chen had passed the second round of the competition.

Master Yu Ding frowned deeply. He never expected Ye Chen to win, but the outcome was clear and there was nothing he could do to tamper with the game.

The Yin God's expression was very grim. He said, "This is not good. Are we really going to let Emperor Ye win the championship?"

Master Tianwen said calmly, "It's alright, there are still three rounds to go."

"In the next round, I will arrange for Chang Yeyu from Tianjing Ancient Palace to fight against Emperor Ye."

"If I'm not mistaken, then Chang Yeyu should be the incarnation of Immortal Venerable Jingliu himself."

"This is equivalent to having Immortal Venerable Jingliu personally deal with Emperor Ye."

"Hehe, Emperor Ye is not in good condition right now. He should not be a match for Immortal Venerable Jingliu."

Although Ye Chen defeated Li Yejun, he exposed his Primordial Divine Remains and suffered so many blows, so he was also seriously injured.

In the next round of the competition, Ye Chen will definitely not have the strength he possessed at his peak.

However, Chang Yeyu was still almost at his peak, so if they were to fight, Ye Chen would undoubtedly be at a great disadvantage.

With the time it takes for an incense stick to burn completely over, the second round of the competition also came to a successful conclusion, with twelve people being eliminated and twelve people advancing.

The third round of the competition will continue in half an hour.

Ye Chen returned to the base camp to rest, feeling pain all over his bones. He sat cross-legged and quietly recovered his breath.

Su Yunli and the goddess Ling Qingya, along with other women, wanted to go over and directly channel their energy into Ye Chen to restore his health, but due to the rules of the competition, they could not do so, and there were also law enforcement elders watching from the side.

In the second round, Ji Siqing also advanced smoothly, but Sun Yi was eliminated.

"That Chang Yeyu is too powerful. I couldn't even last ten moves against her."

Sun Yi was extremely annoyed, because the opponent she had encountered was none other than the genius from the Tianjing Ancient Palace who had been there during the long night of rain.

She has created the Forest Book, which, once released, unleashes a barrage of attacks including vine entanglement, tree spirit attacks, petrification, heavenly wood bombardment, heavenly wood transformation, thorns and poison, and many other techniques.

But no matter how flashy Sun Yi's moves were, the long night rain was shattered with just one sword.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's heart stirred.

Is it going to be another long, rainy night?

He looked towards the direction of the Tianjing Ancient Palace, where Chang Yeyu was still holding a paper umbrella and wearing a veil, looking mysterious.

Ye Chen looked at her slender figure and felt a sense of familiarity.

There stood Immortal Venerable Jingliu and Chang Yeyu, their figures similar and their postures equally elegant and noble, making them look like sisters.

Ye Chen was eager to find out the details of the long night rain, but unfortunately he was unable to find out anything.

After a half-hour break, the third round of the competition is about to begin.

Ye Chen's bones were still aching slightly; he hadn't rested enough. The battle with Li Yejun had taken a toll on him.

The third round of the competition was redrawn, and Ye Chen was completely at ease. No matter what opponent the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect arranged for him, he would no longer be surprised.

But when he actually saw his opponent's name, he was still slightly shocked.

He had anticipated that his opponent would be Qitianjun or Gu Jiuge, but neither of them came to mind.

His opponent was none other than Chang Yeyu!
"They actually assigned this woman to me."

"Does the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect think this woman can defeat me?"

Ye Chen muttered to himself as he stepped onto the arena.

Chang Yeyu also stepped onto the arena, her clear eyes silently watching Ye Chen.

Ye Chen had no grudge against her, so he maintained polite etiquette and drew his sword first, saying, "Miss, draw your sword."

"Both of my friends have fallen to the hands of this young lady. This time, let me learn from your skills."

Chang Yeyu paused for a moment, then handed the paper umbrella to his left hand and gently drew the sword from his waist with his right.

He held a sword in one hand and an umbrella in the other.

Seeing that she was still holding the umbrella, Ye Chen asked curiously, "Miss, you don't mean to fight me with one hand, do you?"

Did she also use only one hand when she eliminated Ni Changjun and Sun Yi?
This is a bit outrageous!

Chang Yeyu paused for a moment, then suddenly sheathed her sword, turned around, glanced back at Ye Chen, and sighed softly:
"Fine, I give up."

"Emperor Ye, you have won this round of the competition."

After saying that, she held up her umbrella, floated away from the arena, and slowly flew back to her own Tianjing Ancient Palace headquarters, where she whispered a few words to Immortal Venerable Jingliu.

Immortal Venerable Jingliu nodded, seemingly not blaming her for admitting defeat.

Ye Chen was stunned. He never expected that Chang Yeyu would admit defeat.

The fact that Chang Yeyu was able to eliminate Ni Changjun and Sun Yi shows that he must be extremely powerful.

If a real fight breaks out, even if Ye Chen wins, he will probably have to pay a considerable price.

But to his surprise, Chang Yeyu actually admitted defeat.

The referee elder standing to the side was also completely dumbfounded.

This is so cheap!

Ye Chen gained a victory effortlessly, without lifting a finger.

"What?! They actually admitted defeat!"

When the Heavenly Question Ancestor witnessed this scene, his face turned a deep purplish-red, and two wrinkles appeared on his forehead.

This is because his Dao heart was shaken too violently, causing wear and tear on his body.

He deliberately arranged for Chang Yeyu to fight Ye Chen, just to make Ye Chen suffer.

But to everyone's surprise, Changyeyu actually admitted defeat!
"What happened? Why did Immortal Venerable Jingliu admit defeat?"

The Yin God's expression was also extremely ugly; this scene was completely beyond his expectations.

Ancestor Tianwen took a deep breath and said, "Lord Yinshen, don't panic. We still have a backup plan. As long as Jiuge and Qitianjun make a move, the situation can be reversed."

Currently, the Yin Yang Divine Path Sect still has two cards that belong to themselves.

One of them is Qitianjun, a disciple of Ancestor Tingyou.

The other one is Gu Jiuge, the disciple of the Heavenly Question Ancestor.

The Yin God said in a deep voice, "Let our own people take action! We can no longer rely on outsiders!"

He also wanted to use Mo Yanjun, Li Yejun, and Chang Yeyu to deplete Ye Chen's power, but unexpectedly, only Li Yejun had a slightly unexpected effect, while the other two were completely useless.

With Chang Yeyu forfeiting and conceding defeat, Ye Chen advanced directly to the fourth round without lifting a finger.

There was a half-hour break in between. After leaving the arena, Ye Chen took the time to regulate his breathing and recover his damaged skeleton.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the third round of the competition also came to an end, with six people being eliminated and six people advancing.

The six people who advanced to the fourth round, besides Ye Chen, included Ji Siqing, Qitianjun, Gu Jiuge, Fenghuangjun from the Temple of the End, and a man named Liudaojun, who was also one of the eight true disciples of the Temple of the End.

Ye Chen had never met Feng Huangjun and Liu Daojun before.

“This Lord Fenghuang is a true disciple of the Eternal Heaven, while Lord Liudao is from the Reincarnation Heaven.”

"If you encounter them, just be careful."

Ni Changjun said softly, giving Ye Chen a brief introduction to the origins of the two true disciples.

The Temple of the End has eight branch temples, such as the Heaven of Passion where Ni Changjun resides, the Heaven of Emptiness where Mo Yanjun resides, the Heaven of Desolation where Li Yejun resides, and the Heaven of Endless Light where Ming Zhaojun resides. All of these are among the eight branch temples.

In pursuit of the ultimate end, the Temple of the End studies countless methods and paths, including the path of reincarnation!

The Samsara Heaven is a branch temple dedicated to the study of the Samsara Dao!

Ye Chen glanced at Feng Huangjun and Liu Daojun, nodded silently, and remained secretly on guard.

Half an hour later, the fourth round of the competition will begin.

This fourth round of competition will directly determine the top three!
As long as you get into the top three, you will definitely receive the inheritance of the Yin-Yang Eight Character Formula!
However, for Ye Chen, being in the top three is not enough; he must win the championship!

After half an hour of rest, Ye Chen's condition had improved considerably, and his bones were no longer in pain.

The fourth round of the competition will also involve a new draw, just like the previous rounds.

This time, Ye Chen's opponent was no longer a true disciple of the Temple of the End, but Qi Tianjun from the Lu Dao Sect!
"The Abandoned Heaven Monarch... is finally about to clash with the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect."

Ye Chen murmured to himself, glancing at Qitianjun, who looked confident.

Yin Shen, Tianwen Ancestor, Tingyou Ancestor, and others watched with solemn expressions.

Ye Chen had been winning all along, and they were afraid that he would actually win the championship.

Ji Siqing's opponent was Liu Daojun from the Samsara Heaven of the End God Temple.

Gu Jiuge, the disciple of the Heavenly Question Ancestor, fought against Feng Huangjun.

The competition began, and the six contestants stepped onto the stage.

Most people's attention was focused on Ye Chen and Qi Tianjun.

Without a doubt, Ye Chen is the most dazzling focus of this Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Sects!
As the competition progresses, Ye Chen is getting closer and closer to the championship!
"That's enough, Emperor Ye."

"I will end your brilliance!"

Without wasting words, Qitianjun drew a long, black stone sword with a whoosh.

The longsword emanates a flow of Yin and Yang spiritual energy, exuding an ancient and profound aura.

An overwhelming and powerful pressure, as if it were above all the heavens, was released fiercely, causing the entire floating arena to sink slightly.

"Ah, it's the Yin-Yang Divine Sword!"

"The Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect's most precious treasure has actually been brought out directly?"

"Such a divine weapon could probably kill Emperor Ye with a single strike!"

……

Upon seeing the longsword forged from black stone in Qitianjun's hand, the entire audience gasped in astonishment, no one able to believe their eyes.

That was actually the Yin-Yang Divine Sword, the most treasured artifact of the Yin-Yang Divine Sword Sect!

"Legend has it that this sword was forged purely from the Yin Source Stone, a spiritual stone of the highest Yin nature. Even a tiny speck of that Yin Source Stone is incredibly precious, let alone a large piece of spiritual stone."

"Emperor Ye is doomed now; the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect is after him!"

The appearance of the Yin-Yang Divine Sword shocked countless people. This sword is not a Dao artifact, but it surpasses Dao artifacts. It contains boundless power of the Great Dao. It is made of Yin Origin Dao Stone and relies on the law of Yin generating Yang to generate Yang energy, finally forming a balance between Yin and Yang.

The Dao essence of this sword is truly profound and powerful.

When Ye Chen saw the sword in Qitianjun's hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked up at Yinshen.

He never expected that the Yin God would directly hand over such a divine sword to the Abandoned Heaven Lord.

Swish!
Qitianjun struck first, slashing directly at Ye Chen with his sword. The wind and clouds surged and the spiritual energy fluctuated. An incomparably sharp sword beam of the Great Dao tore through the air and slashed forward fiercely.

Ye Chen flicked his wrist, raising the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword to parry. With a clang, he barely managed to block the unparalleled sword light of the Great Dao. He was not injured, but he was forced back several steps.

"What a strong pressure."

Ye Chen grinned. In terms of sharpness, that Yin-Yang Divine Sword was actually inferior to his Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword, but the pressure of the Great Dao contained within it was earth-shattering.

If it weren't for the Primordial Divine Remains supporting him, Qitianjun's sword strike just now would have already killed him.

"It's not too late to surrender now, and you can still save your life."

Qitianjun gave a sinister laugh, but a bead of sweat seeped from his forehead.

This is actually because the Yin-Yang Divine Sword is too powerful. Using it requires a huge amount of energy, and the user also has to endure the backlash of the Great Dao's pressure. Therefore, the user must fight quickly and cannot engage in prolonged combat.

If Ye Chen could surrender, he could save himself a lot of trouble.

Ye Chen, however, keenly noticed something amiss and smiled:

"Judging from how sweaty you are, it must have been quite a struggle to wield this sword."

"If anyone's going to surrender, it's you!"

After saying that, Ye Chen launched a counterattack. He stomped his foot and shot out, with nine suns appearing behind him. The magnificent scene was overwhelming and radiant.

The Nine Yang Divine Illumination Scripture erupted, and with the help of the nine suns, Ye Chen fiercely slashed at Qitianjun with his sword.

"Insanity!"

Qitianjun was furious. He never expected that Ye Chen would not only refuse to surrender but also dare to launch a counterattack, truly disregarding his Yin-Yang Divine Sword.

"Yin Yang Dragon Soar, break!"

Qitianjun no longer held back, directly burning his own spiritual energy and frantically activating the Yin-Yang Divine Sword, wanting to finish Ye Chen off in one move!
The Yin-Yang spiritual energy on the Yin-Yang Divine Sword suddenly surged and boiled, transforming into two divine dragons, one Yin and one Yang, which coiled and roared around the sword. As Qitianjun unleashed a sword strike, the two Yin-Yang divine dragons also bared their fangs and claws as they attacked.

The nine suns that Ye Chen unleashed were instantly shattered by the two Yin-Yang Divine Dragons. He himself, along with his sword, was also entangled by the Yin-Yang Divine Dragons and torn apart by endless sword energy.

In an instant, Ye Chen was in danger!

With such a frenzied outburst, Qitianjun could only unleash a maximum of three sword strikes. If he couldn't kill Ye Chen within those three strikes, he would be exhausted and die.

However, this was only the first sword strike, and Ye Chen already felt it was unbearable, as if his body was about to be torn apart.

"The Way of Reincarnation, the Burial Technique!"

Despite the peril, Ye Chen remained calm and composed. He made a hand seal with his left hand, and his entire body erupted with the power of reincarnation energy, surging wildly and terrifyingly. An aura of great annihilation burst forth from his body.

A huge, pitch-black character for "burial" rose slowly from above Ye Chen's head, then vanished into fragments of light.

After the word "burial" vanished, an endless and terrifying aura of annihilation quickly spread, dimming the light of the entire arena and making the colors of the sky and earth extremely dark. The guests watching the battle outside the arena felt suffocated on the spot, as if their throats were being choked.

The two Yin-Yang Divine Dragons unleashed by Qitianjun were instantly annihilated and torn apart. Ye Chen seemed to have become a demon god who annihilated heaven and earth, his skin crackling and spreading out a black and eerie hellish reincarnation aura.

This is the aura of the Burial Mantra!
This Burial Technique is a method that Ye Chen extracted and comprehended from the Reincarnation Burial Technique. It is an extremely domineering and fierce Daoist method, a pure burial and destruction.

Bury heaven and earth, bury the old and establish the new!
Everything old, decaying, and dark will be buried!

Even the myriad phenomena of the heavens can be buried if Ye Chen so desires!
His Burial Technique erupted instantly, and when combined with the boundless Reincarnation Qi, the two Yin-Yang Divine Dragons of the Abandoned Heaven Monarch were annihilated.

"Well!"

Qitianjun grunted, feeling an endless aura of annihilation and reincarnation approaching. He hurriedly retreated, raising his sword to his chest to block the burial aura.

However, the Burial Technique was so fierce that he couldn't completely block it, and his skin and flesh showed many signs of aging and wrinkles.

If he goes any further, he will become a skeleton in a tomb and be completely buried!
However, Ye Chen was also feeling unwell at this moment.
