"..."
Before the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace, thousands of experts stood dumbfounded.
They were completely oblivious as a rain of blood and mangled flesh splattered across their bodies.
Even Yinn Tianzong, a young Venerable, wore a look of utter shock.
Dead?
Zhu Zitai, a mighty expert at the Half-Step Union Palace Realm and the third-ranked genius of the Nine Sins Hall’s Inner Sect, had actually died after Jiang Chen simply blew on him?
How was this possible?
"I must still be dreaming! Heh, heh heh..."
"He blew a Half-Step Union Palace Realm expert to death with a single breath? Is this guy a Celestial God or sothing?"
"This is just unbelievable!"
Every expert’s gaze on Jiang Chen was now laced with reverence and fear.
For mortals, the unknown is always the most terrifying thing!
For Jiang Chen to kill a Half-Step Union Palace Realm expert with a single breath was a thod so inconceivable that it defied all common sense.
Wu Hao gulped, his eyes fixed on Zhu Zitai’s obliterated corpse. Beyond his shock and disbelief, he recalled Jiang Chen’s earlier calm and composed deanor, and a guess began to form in his mind. ’My benefactor is strong, but there’s no way he could kill a Half-Step Union Palace Realm expert with a single breath. If I’m not mistaken, he must have planted so kind of hidden trap on him long before we arrived at the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace!’
Wu Hao wasn’t the only clever one present.
Yinn Tianzong also recovered from his shock. After so thought, he had already pieced together what had happened.
A grave look appeared in his eyes as he stared at Jiang Chen. "What a cunning sche... I’m afraid you never trusted Zhu Zitai from the start. You must have planted so kind of special trick inside his body!"
Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, not bothering to deny it. "Congratulations, you got it right! Too bad there’s no prize."
"Heh!"
Yinn Tianzong sneered, his gaze growing colder. "Zhu Zitai may have been just a dog under my command, but as the saying goes, you have to consider the master before you beat the dog. By killing him so directly, aren’t you showing a bit too much disrespect for , Yinn Tianzong?"
As he spoke, a sinister smile crept onto Yinn Tianzong’s lips.
His figure began to blur, revealing it to be nothing more than an afterimage!
’So fast!’
Jiang Chen was startled.
Even he hadn’t noticed when Yinn Tianzong had launched his attack.
Suddenly, the faintest sound of sothing slicing through the air reached his ear.
"Get lost!"
As Jiang Chen turned, he threw a punch into the empty space beside him.
ROAR—
An Azure Dragon Fist Shadow instantly shot forward.
From the empty space, a surprised gasp was heard. "You actually found ? Now, shatter!"
A jet-black palm light appeared out of nowhere.
The fist and palm collided like two mountains, instantly unleashing a blast of opposing energies that billowed into a thick cloud of black smoke.
The resulting gale forced Jiang Chen to narrow his eyes.
Yinn Tianzong, clad in his Black Armor, erged from the billowing smoke with a leisurely gait.
His black hair whipped about, and his armor glinted with a cold light.
Yinn Tianzong’s eyes narrowed as they settled on Jiang Chen. "There are only a dozen or so people my age in the Ten Great Dynasties who could have pinpointed my real body in such a short ti. Coincidentally, I know all of them, but you are a stranger. If I’m not mistaken, you must be the new young Venerable who knocked Beast Nine off the Venerable List... Jiang Chen, right?"
"What? He’s that new young Venerable?"
"Wasn’t he in the Sixteenth State? How did he end up here?"
"If it’s really him, does that an we’re about to witness a battle between two young Venerables today?"
"A battle between Venerables! To think we’d get to see a clash between experts of this caliber even before we reach Celestial Fate Island..."
Wu Hao was also completely stunned.
He had never imagined that his benefactor was actually the famous new young Venerable.
A fervent light blazed in his eyes as he stared intently at Jiang Chen. ’I can’t believe my benefactor is the young Venerable, Jiang Chen! No wonder he’s so powerful that even Xie Zesen and Zhu Zitai fell to him one after another.’
Jiang Chen smiled faintly. "So you figured it out."
"You must have used a Great Void Transmission Talisman to get to the Ninth State, correct? Tsk, tsk. I was just wondering how I was going to stop you from knocking out of ninth place. Now, it seems I won’t have to bother!"
A cruel smile erged on Yinn Tianzong’s face, which was as stiff as an ice sculpture. A fervent glint flickered in his eyes as he stared at Jiang Chen like a hungry wolf eyeing a plump sheep. "Once I kill you, your 900 million points will be mine. Even though I can only take half, having 1.3 or 1.4 billion points will be enough to guarantee a spot in the top five of the Venerable List!"
"What a coincidence. I’m also aiming for the top five on the Venerable List. Why don’t you do a favor and just hand over your points?" Jiang Chen grinned.
Their eyes t.
No more words were needed.
Brilliant light shot from their eyes, their tangible gazes clashing in the empty air between them.
A continuous sizzling sound filled the air.
In the space between them, all the air was violently expelled, creating a vacuum.
Suddenly...
A single fleck of stone drifted slowly downward.
The mont it touched the ground, it was as if a battle horn had sounded.
Jiang Chen and Yinn Tianzong moved at the exact sa ti!
BOOM!
The two shot forward, arriving in front of each other in an instant. They both raised their hands, their palms eting as they locked grips.
On their four arms, thick veins bulged like coiling dragons.
Terrifying power clashed between them!
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The ground beneath their feet trembled and shattered, collapsing under the force. A crater over ten ters in diater ford with them at its center.
Then, they simultaneously released their grip and leaped back.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Upon reaching the edge of the crater, they changed direction and charged at each other once more.
They t in mid-air, fists and palms colliding.
Terrifying explosions of energy erupted one after another, brilliant streaks of True Essence Light as dazzling as fireworks.
"Ghost King Fist!"
Yinn Tianzong roared, unleashing hundreds, even thousands, of fist shadows. They converged into the forms of hideous Evil Ghosts, pouring down on Jiang Chen like a torrential rain.
This was the Earth-Tier High-Level Martial Skill, Ghost King Hundred Battle Fist!
Its power was terrifying.
"Celestial Dragon World Destruction!"
Not to be outdone, Jiang Chen pushed his Eight Celestial Dragon Divine Fist to its absolute limit.
The dragon-shaped fist shadows clashed with the Evil Ghost fist shadows in mid-air.
Jiang Chen and Yinn Tianzong changed positions and attacked again in mid-air.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
In one clash after another, their hand-to-hand combat skills proved to be evenly matched!
"Ghost King’s Finger!"
"Heaven-Burning Finger!"
A giant, skeletal finger wreathed in sinister black energy stabbed through the air, clashing with a crimson finger engulfed in raging flas. A violent gale erupted from the point of impact, blasting out in all directions. The onlookers’ faces were masks of horror as they scrambled to get out of the way.
BOOM—
Both fingers were annihilated simultaneously, turning to dust.
The aftershock sent both Jiang Chen and Yinn Tianzong flying backward, leaving them facing each other from a distance.
A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Yinn Tianzong’s eyes. "Truly worthy of a new young Venerable. To be able to fight to a standstill while only at the Heavenly Destiny Realm Sixth Stage is astounding! What a pity you ran into today. Your death is sealed!"
Jiang Chen’s face was alight with fervent battle intent. He grinned, a fanatical fire in his eyes. "Enough talk. Let’s settle this with a fight!"
"Fine. Then I will fight you with everything I have!"
Yinn Tianzong nodded. Black light pulsed in his palm, and a Ghost Head Long Spear materialized in his hand. His expression was cold and arrogant. "A High-grade Earth Tier Profound Weapon, the Ghost King Spear. Jiang Chen, today, you will die!"
BUZZ!
Jiang Chen stroked the air, and the Dustfall Sword, pulsing with black light, flew into his grasp. Sword in hand, he looked coldly at Yinn Tianzong. "A High-grade Earth Tier Profound Weapon, the Dustfall Sword. Yinn Tianzong, you will be the first young Venerable to die by its blade!"
"Fight!"
"Kill!"
With a furious roar, the two young Venerables charged at each other once more...
