Chapter 496 - Huang Shenyi
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
The news that Zhang Ruochen was heading to the Wood Spirit Primitive World had spread throughout East Region Saint City. Furthermore, there were rumors that the so-called three Great Saint families had sent out large numbers of masters toward the Battlefield of the Primitive World with the goal of defeating Zhang Ruochen.
Having learned of this news, Huang Yanchen came out from refinement. She and other young masters from East Region Saint Mansions’ Chen family had rushed to Myriad Chaos Mountain, ready to give Zhang Ruochen a hand.
However, they had just come to Myriad Chaos Mountain, and they had not even seen Zhang Ruochen yet when they, ran into a shamelessly boasting maniac.
Thus, there was a scene in front of the Heaven Board stone tablet.
A yellow-clothed man raised his head slightly and stared at Huang Yanchen. His face lit up wickedly. He said, “Lady, I see that you are wearing a martial robe from the Saint Academy, you must also be a young master. I wonder if you will dare to accept my challenge. Can we test ourselves on the Heavenly Battle Stage?”
“Why not? I’m worried that you won’t be a match for me.” Huang Yanchen was proud and her demeanor cold.
She had long found the yellow-clothed man unpleasant. Since he dared to say that Huang Shenyi would certainly be stronger than Zhang Ruochen, even if Zhang Ruochen could swallow this insult, she could not.
In her opinion, Zhang Ruochen was another word for being invincible. If anyone looked down on him, they would have her as an enemy.
Huang Yanchen’s martial cultivation had broken through to another realm. She had now reached the Medium State of the Heaven Realm. In the same generation, she could be considered an extremely rare specimen.
Because she was talented and daring, she accepted the yellow-clothed man’s challenge.
A serious expression appeared on Chen Tianshu’s face. He carefully observed the yellow-clothed man and felt some worry in his heart. He felt that this man was not someone to anger, so he reminded her in a low voice, “Cousin, you haven’t figured out his background, yet you have rashly agreed to battle him. I fear this is not good.”
Huang Yanchen’s personality had always been impulsive. In addition, she was angry, and so she had readily agreed to the challenge.
At this moment, with Chen Tianshu’s reminder, she also felt like something was wrong. So, she asked, “Who exactly are you?”
The young warriors present were also very curious. They also felt that the yellow-clothed man was not as simple as he appeared, and that he was certainly not someone to be trifled with.
The man in yellow said, “Commandery Princess Yanchen, we met once before in Omen Ridge. You only have eyes for Zhang Ruochen so, naturally, you do not remember me. But I have not forgotten you. Your mother struck down from the sky with a sword very heroically. Such mightiness, I still remember it clearly today.”
“Who exactly are you?” Huang Yanchen asked.
The yellow-clothed man laughed, “You are just asking my name now, is it not too late? Of course, there is no harm in telling you. After all, we are of the same clan. Huang is my surname, and my name is Shenyi. You can call me the Yellow God Emissary.”
“Boom!”
Everyone on scene was shocked and involuntarily stepped back. They all went crazy.
“What? He is THE Huang Shenyi, the first on the Heaven Board?”
“Wasn’t Huang Shenyi practicing in the Primitive World of Xuan Wu? Did he come back early?”
Throughout the world, a number of people who dared to impersonate Huang Shenyi.
The talented disciples of the East Region Saint Mansions’ Chen family were all greatly shocked, and everyone pulled out their weapons. They looked at the yellow-clothed man like he was a great enemy.
While she was in Omen Ridge, Huang Yanchen had once seen Huang Shenyi. However, at that time, she had been too far away to see his appearance clearly.
At this moment, she looked closely at the yellow-clothed man. Only then did she realize that this person’s figure was indeed very similar to Huang Shenyi’s.
“Legend says that no warrior that Huang Shenyi has challenged has ever walked off the Battle Stage alive. None of them survived.”
“That girl from the Saint Academy is very unlucky to have agreed to battle Huang Shenyi. If she is really going to the battle, I’m afraid that everything points to disaster.”
“If she doesn’t go as agreed, how will she keep her head up in the future? In the way of martial arts, the biggest taboo is to be cowardly. Since she has agreed to someone’s challenge, how can she go back on it?”
…
The warriors beneath the Heaven Board stone tablet were all looking at Huang Yanchen with pity, shaking their heads back and forth and sighing.
From their perspective, Huang Yanchen making Huang Shenyi angry was the same as angering death itself.
“I don’t believe that he is really Huang Shenyi.”
Chen Tianran huffed coldly. Raising the Ghost King Spear, he took large steps forward and leaped up. With strength like thunder, he struck at the man in yellow.
He was ranked 12th in East Region Saint Mansion among the younger generation so naturally, he was not weak. He had battled against Zhang Ruochen once, but he had been defeated in one move. Thus, he rather admired Zhang Ruochen’s power.
This time, he had volunteered to rush to Myriad Chaos Mountain with Huang Yanchen, and he was ready to offer Zhang Ruochen his support.
Right now, he was going to help Huang Yanchen test the yellow-clothed man’s strength.
What if he was just boasting and not Huang Shenyi at all?
When he saw Chen Tianran charging toward him with a spear, the corner of the yellow-clothed man’s eye moved slightly, and he laughed mockingly. “A first-rate genius of East Region Saint Mansions’ Chen family. Is this all you’ve got?”
The yellow-clothed man’s fingers twirled in thin air. With his palm in the center, he formed a tornado the width of a bowl.
The tornado extended out until it was dozens of meters tall. It had turned into a wind cudgel, and it swung toward Chen Tianran.
“Boom!”
The tornado wind cudgel struck Chen Tianran, shattering his Celestial Bodyshield, and sending him flying.
Chen Tianran’s body slammed into a stone pillar and broke it. He landed heavily on the ground, smashing the flagstones. He slid more than 30 meters back before coming to a stop.
“Ah!”
Blood sprayed out of Chen Tianran’s mouth, after which he fainted away.
“Sixth brother!”
Huang Yanchen and Chen Tianshu immediately rushed over and helped Chen Tianran up from the ground.
Now, people could see that Chen Tianran’s chest had turned into a mess of blood and meat by the wind power. A layer of flesh had even been whipped away, and rows of neatly lined up ribs showed through, as well as the internal organs behind the bones.
It was so scary!
“He’s still breathing. He’s not dead, yet.”
Chen Tianshu’s expression was solemn as he immediately put a Muscle Growing Pill into Chen Tianran’s mouth and helped him swallow it.
Afterward, he circulated his Genuine Qi and pressed his palm against Chen Tianran’s head, helping him refine the healing Pill.
The warriors watching from a distance were all shocked into silence.
“It is indeed Huang Shenyi. His power over the wind is terrifying!”
“The skill to form the wind into a club, and then strip away flesh and blood from someone’s chest without killing them is much more incredible than being able to kill someone!
Huang Shenyi had only struck out casually, and yet he had already shown such power. The crowd could not help but shiver in fear.
Furthermore, everyone knew that it was not because Huang Shenyi did not want to kill Chen Tianran, rather, it was because the military orders in place in Myriad Chaos Mountain did not allow the killing of fellow humans.
If someone dared to kill people with impunity, the Ministry of War would send Primitive World soldiers to have them killed.
Of course, the rules were different on the Heavenly Battle Stage. Before a warrior stepped onto the Battle Stage, both sides would sign a death waiver. Even if one accidentally killed the other, they would not receive any punishment.
Given Huang Shenyi’s delicate control over the wind power, one could imagine that, if he wanted to, he could control the wind power so that it stripped away all the flesh and blood from one’s body, leaving only the bones. Yet, the other person would still not immediately die.
This was a very difficult and terrifying skill. The delicate control of power was probably comparable to the ability of a Half-Saint.
“To be able to become the first on the Heaven Board, Huang Shenyi was indeed an extraordinary figure. It was impossible but to admire him.”
“The fact that he was able to accumulate 10,000,000 military merits already demonstrates his strength.”
When Huang Yanchen saw the extent of Chen Tianran’s injuries, a wave of icy air surged out from her meridians, covering the ground at her feet with a thick layer of frost.
“Swish!”
Sword radiance flashed, and Huang Yanchen’s sword immediately flew out of its sheath.
Huang Yanchen had activated a wind nature Sacred Mark, so naturally, the Genuine Qi she produced carried the power of wind.
Following her sword movement, a powerful wind picked up immediately and formed into a vortex that headed straight for Huang Shenyi.
“She still dares to fight Huang Shenyi even though he is so powerful? She is too daring!”
“Even if Huang Shenyi fears the Ministry of War’s orders and does not kill her, it would still be very easy for him to destroy her cultivation or ruin her appearance.”
After witnessing Huang Shenyi’s power, everyone knew that fighting with him spelled certain death. Even among the top Heaven Board warriors, not many would fight Huang Shenyi voluntarily.
Of course, regardless of her actual power, just drawing her sword against Huang Shenyi was already worthy of being admiration.
“You greatly overestimate your own abilities. Did you really think that no one would dare to kill you because your fiance is Zhang Ruochen? In my eyes, he is nothing more than an ant.”
A murderous light flashed through Huang Shenyi’s eyes, and his figure swayed.
One moment, he was sitting on a stone stool. The next, he had become a shadow and appeared over 10 meters away. His hands moved slowly through void space like he was drawing a Tai Chi map.
Since Huang Yanchen had come voluntarily to her death, he, naturally, would not hold back.
If he killed Huang Yanchen, Zhang Ruochen would certainly show himself.
At the same time, it would affect the state of Zhang Ruochen’s heart. It would be a great help in his battle with him.
The palm technique he was going to execute was very extraordinary. It was called, “Broken Bone Palm.” If Huang Yanchen was hit, she would not die immediately. Rather, three days later, she would die after all the bones in her body shattered.
Huang Shenyi’s arms seemed to be moving very slowly but in reality, they were moving very fast.
Although his palm had not struck down, everyone present seemed able to guess the result.
That woman was dead, for sure!
Just as Huang Shenyi’s palm was about to land on Huang Yanchen’s body, two people charged out from behind her.
Shadows.
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
“Huang Shenyi, we will fight you.”
The two shadows moved at an extremely fast speed, and their bodily movements were rather extraordinary. Furthermore, their bodies were slender and emanated a faint fragrance. It was two uncommonly beautiful women.
The woman on the left was Duanmu Xingling.
She transferred her Genuine Qi into her palms and formed an Aquarius Mark. She struck out, colliding palms with Huang Shenyi.
The woman on the right was Luo Shuihan.
Her entire body gave off a golden light, holy and elegant. She clenched her snow-white fingers.
She lightly sketched out a Luoshui Fist Technique. That wave of fist strength combined with some rule of heavenly way, exploding out with enough power to topple mountains and overturn oceans. It smashed into Huang Shenyi’s left palm.
“Boom!”
The two of them clashed head-on with Huang Shenyi with an earth-shattering boom.
A great wave of energy ripples spread out, with the three of them in the center. It knocked the young warriors around them in all directions.
“Pffft!”
Huang Shenyi’s figure quickly retreated. He slid 30 meters back before his legs rooted and he steadied himself.
Luo Shuihan and Duanmu Xingling also flew back, and then slowly landed on the ground.
Duanmu Xingling arched out her full bosom and looked at her snow-white hands. With surprise, she said, “No wonder he is first on the Heaven Board, he is indeed very powerful. If we were fighting one-on-one, perhaps I would not be your match right now. But, today, you are not facing me alone, instead, you are facing the Three Devils of the Western Campus. How about it, as the first ranked person on the Heaven Board, do you dare to take the challenge? Hehe!”
