Chapter 1101 Huge Price
He was enraged and humiliated, and a low growl like a wild beast came out of his throat. The sound was hoarse and unpleasant, full of resentment and anger.
The immortal power in his body surged again, and the green light almost enveloped him completely. From a distance, he looked like a monster wrapped in green flames.
He no longer used just one palm, but used both palms alternately to attack Ye Chen's fingers.
Each strike carried the power to rip apart space. The wind from his palms howled like ghosts and wolves, roiling the world. The gravel on the ground was swept into the air, only to be shattered by the palm wind, turning it into a cloud of dust that made the surrounding air turbid.
The attacks of the God Emperor Qinghao became faster and more fierce. His arms turned like windmills, and his palms kept falling. Each blow contained the power to destroy the world.
Veins bulged on his forehead, and sweat streamed down his cheeks, soaking his clothes!
But no matter how crazy he was or how hard he tried, he could not break the defense of Ye Chen's finger.
Ye Chen looked calm from beginning to end, without even raising his eyelids, as if he was not facing a life-and-death battle, but just casually brushing away an annoying flying insect.
His fingertips were always firmly pressed against the palm of Qinghao Divine Emperor. That seemingly slender finger was like the hardest divine iron at this moment. No matter how hard Qinghao Divine Emperor exerted, it did not move at all.
The stronger the palm power of Emperor Qinghao, the stronger the recoil force transmitted from his fingertips.
Later, Emperor Qinghao's arms began to tremble slightly. This was because of the excessive consumption of energy and the pain caused by the recoil force.
His palms had become red and swollen, even oozing blood, but he still refused to give up and continued to attack frantically. He could clearly feel that his immortal power was being consumed at an increasingly rapid rate, and the spiritual power in his body was draining away like a flood, but he could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.
Youruo and Xie Purou watched this scene from a distance, without any surprise on their faces, as if they had known this would be the result.
Youruo sighed softly, a hint of regret in her voice: "I told him, but he didn't listen. Now he's asking for trouble."
Xie Purou nodded, her eyes fixed on Ye Chen, full of admiration: "Master's strength is beyond the imagination of these people. It's a luxury for the Qinghao Divine Emperor to be able to keep his life today."
During the conversation between the two, on the other side of the battlefield, the air around Emperor Qinghao seemed to be ignited, his hair stood on end, his eyes were red as blood, and he had completely fallen into madness.
A wild, beast-like howl rolled out of his throat, and the vast immortal power in his body surged out without reservation. His clothes were swollen by the energy and rustled, and even the void under his feet was covered with fine cracks due to this tremendous force.
Attacks filled with destructive aura blasted out from his palms one after another, some turned into ferocious golden claws, and some condensed into unmatched sharp immortal blades.
Each strike carried the power to tear apart the heaven and earth, but there was only one goal - to kill Ye Chen completely on the spot.
However, no matter how violent the attack of Emperor Qinghao was, there seemed to be an invisible barrier in front of Ye Chen.
Those killing moves that were enough to make ordinary strong men tremble with fear, when they landed on Ye Chen's casually raised finger, they could not even cause a ripple, let alone hurt him in the slightest.
Emperor Qinghao tried his best, but he was still unable to break through Ye Chen's defense of even one finger, as if all his struggles were in vain.
Ye Chen even had the leisure to rub the corners of his eyes and yawned nonchalantly, his tone full of impatience and mockery: "Are you really capable? With such little strength, you dare to pretend in front of me?"
The moment he finished speaking, he bent his fingertips slightly and then flicked them lightly.
"Om-"
A seemingly calm wave, but containing terrifying power, quietly rippled out from his fingertips.
This wave did not have the earth-shattering momentum, but it hit the chest of Emperor Qinghao accurately.
Emperor Qinghao only felt an unprecedented force coming like a tsunami. The force violently broke through the immortal power defense around him and poured straight into his body.
He had no time to react at all, and his body flew backwards uncontrollably like a kite with a broken string, smashing several spatial barriers along the way, leaving behind a series of shrill sounds of breaking through the air.
"Click——"
There seemed to be a crisp sound of bones dislocating in the body, and the internal organs seemed to be grasped tightly by an invisible giant hand, causing excruciating pain.
The God Emperor Qinghao spat out a large mouthful of blood in the air, and the blood mist spread in the air, dyeing a large area of the void red.
He fell heavily to the ground and struggled to get up, but found that all his strength had been drained away. His breath instantly weakened and his face turned as pale as paper.
"You... who are you?!"
Emperor Qinghao supported himself on the ground, raised his head and stared at Ye Chen, his voice trembling with an unconcealable tremor, his eyes full of fear and deep dread.
The brief fight just now made him truly feel the horror of Ye Chen.
It was an unfathomable gap in strength, like a chasm.
I have already pushed all my life's cultivation to the extreme, and even used my most powerful tricks, but I can't even touch the corner of the other person's clothes?
You know, looking at the entire world, whether it is those peerless powerful people hidden in the ancient mountains, or the controllers of the major top forces who hold power, Emperor Qinghao is confident that he can confront them head-on and exchange a few moves with them.
If not for this, he wouldn't be so arrogant and domineering relying on his own strength.
But when facing Ye Chen, he felt powerless for the first time.
It was as if in the other party's eyes, he was like an ant that could be crushed to death at any time, and he didn't even have the right to resist.
But what frightened him the most was not the gap in strength.
From the beginning to the end, when he was attacking frantically with all his might, Ye Chen only used one finger from beginning to end.
That finger was so light, but it was like an insurmountable mountain, making all his attacks come to nothing, and he couldn't even break the opponent's defense!
Emperor Qinghao has lived for countless years, but this is the first time he has encountered such a weird and desperate situation.
"No other tricks?"
Ye Chen slowly retracted his fingers, his tone still calm, as if just casually knocking away a Divine Emperor was just a trivial matter.
Emperor Qinghao looked at Ye Chen's calm and composed appearance, and his fear grew even stronger.
Just how strong must this person be to be able to remain so calm even when crushing me?
"This... This is bad, I'm no match for them at all!!!"
Thoughts of despair flooded the mind of Emperor Qinghao like a tide.
Only then did he realize and regret it.
The other party had clearly shown leniency and given him a way out just now. If he had been able to humble himself and leave obediently at that time, pretending that nothing had happened, how could he have ended up in his current situation?
But it's too late to say anything now.
He was like a prey trapped in a desperate situation, unable to move forward or backward!
In terms of strength, he knew clearly that he was no match for Ye Chen. But at this point, this fight was no longer under his control, and he couldn't stop it just because he wanted to!
“What should I do?!”
The expression of the God Emperor Qinghao changed wildly like a color palette, from the initial ferocity to the later fear, and finally only panic remained.
He clenched his hands into fists, his knuckles turning white from the force, and his mind was working frantically, trying to find a way out of the desperate situation.
Don't be fooled by his usual domineering and arrogant appearance in the outside world, he is actually a person who cherishes his life very much.
No matter how fierce his attack was before, he just wanted to overwhelm the opponent with his momentum, and never really thought about fighting Ye Chen to the death.
Now that he truly felt the vast difference in strength between the two sides, the thought of retreat had already entangled his mind like a vine, and he just wanted to escape from this dangerous place as soon as possible.
But he knew better than anyone that with the terrifying strength Ye Chen had just displayed, it was simply a pipe dream for him to leave safely.
If you really want to escape, you will probably have to pay an unimaginable price.
But as soon as this thought came to his mind, he suppressed it immediately. No matter how heavy the price was, as long as he could leave here alive, everything would be worth it!
As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. As long as you are still alive, there will always be a chance to find it again in the future!
Thinking of this, Emperor Qinghao no longer hesitated. He made a prompt decision and suddenly opened his mouth, letting out a low groan from his throat.
A dazzling green light instantly burst out from his mouth. As soon as the light left his body, it rapidly expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a short moment, it turned into a green spear about ten feet long.
The spear was surrounded by a biting chill, and the tip of the spear flashed with a cold light. A murderous intent that was enough to make the heaven and earth tremble was heading straight for Ye Chen's face, as if it wanted to pierce through everything in front of him.
At the same moment when this ray of light was emitted, Emperor Qinghao did not stop at all. He suddenly bent his body backward, stomped his feet hard in the air, and with the help of the recoil force, he turned into a stream of light and fled into the distance without looking back.
He knew better than anyone that the green light was not an ordinary energy attack.
That was his natal weapon, the "Qingming Spear," which he had spent tens of thousands of years collecting Nine Heavens Black Iron and Netherworld Cold Crystal, and tempered with half of his own immortal essence.
This weapon has accompanied him in battles for countless years, and has killed countless powerful enemies. It has long become a part of his strength and is extremely powerful.
If he attacks it now, it would be like cutting off one of his own arms. His strength will certainly be greatly reduced in the future. This is undoubtedly an unbearable huge loss for him.
But the situation is critical now, how can he care about these things?
Compared to weapons, life is the most important!
As long as I can use this weapon to delay Ye Chen for a moment and buy myself time to escape, it will be worth it no matter how great the loss is!
Emperor Qinghao didn't even dare to look back, to confirm whether his sacrifice of his own weapon would be effective.
He could only keep comforting himself in his heart: It will definitely work, I can definitely delay him!
That is a weapon of the Divine Emperor level. No matter how strong the opponent is, he can never ignore the power of the self-detonation of a Divine Emperor level weapon!
As expected, the green "Qingming Spear" suddenly stopped moving when it rushed to a few feet in front of Ye Chen.
The entire spear began to tremble violently, and spider-web-like cracks covered the spear body. A shocking destructive aura leaked out from the cracks. The surrounding space was distorted and compressed by this aura, as if it would collapse at any time.
The next second, “BOOM!”
A deafening roar resounded through the heaven and earth, and the Qingming Spear exploded, turning into a huge blue energy storm.
The violent energy swept around like a tsunami. Wherever it passed, the void was shattered, the air flow was stirred, and even the clouds in the distance were instantly dispersed. The scene was extremely horrifying.
The energy exploded by the Qingming War Spear was extremely powerful - the power of its explosion was no less than that of a powerful Divine Emperor burning his essence and risking his life for self-destruction!
The green energy torrent, centered on the center point of the spear's self-explosion, rushed madly in all directions like a ferocious beast that had broken free from its restraints.
Wherever it passed, the space was torn into dark cracks, and even the dust floating in the air was instantly vaporized, let alone other things.
If an ordinary cultivator were accidentally caught in this energy storm, his soul would probably be crushed in an instant, leaving no trace.
According to Emperor Qinghao's idea, with such a terrifying impact force, even a powerful Emperor of the same level would have no way of protecting himself and would have to expend all his energy to resist it.
And he could just take advantage of the cover of this blue energy and try his best to escape from this place like a stray dog, fighting for a chance of survival.
However, facing this energy storm that was enough to change the color of the sky and the earth, Ye Chen's face did not show any solemnity, but instead a very faint smile appeared on his face.
He slowly raised his right hand, slightly opened his five fingers, and gently grabbed down at the ball of green energy in front of him that was still spreading wildly and exploding.
The movement seemed slow and casual, as if he was just grabbing at the air, without using any powerful immortal power or performing any fancy magic.
But at the moment his palm fell, something strange happened -
The green energy that was originally running around like a wild horse was suddenly strangled by an invisible big hand.
An indescribable invisible force containing the rules of heaven and earth quietly enveloped the entire energy storm, as if putting an invisible shackle on it.
The next second, a jaw-dropping scene appeared.
The green energy that was originally expanding outwards crazily and vowed to destroy everything suddenly stopped its spread.
Then, under the pull of the invisible force of rules, they suddenly shrank from all directions towards the center point at a speed visible to the naked eye, like the receding tide!
The energy storm that was originally enough to cover an area of several miles was compressed into a ball of energy flashing with green light in an instant, floating under Ye Chen's palm, unable to release any power anymore.
Ye Chen stretched out his hand and pinched the condensed green energy in his hand, as if he was pinching a small green ball.
This small green ball now appears to be in a very condensed and transparent glass state. One can vaguely see that inside the ball there is a spear that has just disintegrated halfway.
Looking in the direction where the Qinghao Divine Emperor disappeared, Ye Chen snapped his fingers and sent the small green ball flying in that direction.
