"What? You intend to win by overwhelming numbers?"
Ye Chen’s eyes had a playful glint. The disciples of the Six Paths Sect were clearly furious. At least a dozen were present at the Heavenly Repairing Realm. If they joined forces, he certainly wouldn’t be a match.
As soon as these words were spoken, the disciples of the Six Paths Sect also looked sowhat somber. They had their pride and disdained joining forces against Ye Chen, as that would not be an honorable victory.
"Heh, taking you down doesn’t require all of us. Let , Zhou Fengsha, handle you!"
At this mont, a towering and robust disciple looked at Ye Chen. His aura surged and roiled, clearly indicating he had reached the fourth-level Heavenly Repairing Realm.
Seeing this, Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. While he was able to defeat Liu Yunmiao, who was at the second-level Heavenly Repairing Realm, facing the fourth-level Zhou Fengsha would be a significant challenge.
It was evident that the disciples of Six Paths Sect also had a rough estimation of Ye Chen’s capabilities. They understood that while Ye Chen was heaven-defying, having managed to defeat Liu Yunmiao with the power of the Heavenly God Realm, facing soone stronger would stretch him to the limit.
At this mont, Ye Chen was undoubtedly in a predicant. Just as his mind raced with strategies, an authoritative voice rang out.
"Enough!"
Wu Duan Cang looked dispassionately at the enraged disciples of the Six Paths Sect and said in a deep voice, "Ye Chen defeated Liu Yunmiao, which ans he passed your test and proved his formidable talent."
With these words, an uproar ensued among the disciples, but none dared to contradict Wu Duan Cang. They could only look at Ye Chen with reluctant gazes.
"Ye Chen, I can agree to let you beco the Chief Disciple, but you must promise one condition."
"What condition?"
Ye Chen looked at Wu Duan Cang, his heart stirred. This was clearly the final test—pass it, and he would achieve his goal.
"If you can freely co and go in the Soul Suppressing Forest, I will agree to let you beco the Chief Disciple."
Upon hearing this, the disciples of Six Paths Sect were montarily stunned, then all turned to Ye Chen with playful looks.
The Soul Suppressing Forest is a place for the disciples of the Six Paths Sect to undergo trials, testing their divine soul and Dao heart. It was established by the sect’s founder, Xiao Shuihan.
Though the Soul Suppressing Forest is only a thousand ters long, it is incredibly challenging. Each step is a test. Currently, the most outstanding disciple, and the one most likely to beco the Chief Disciple, Yang Qianyu, only managed to walk 320 ters, yet it shocked the entire sect, marking Yang Qianyu as an exceptional talent.
The record for the furthest distance traveled in the Soul Suppressing Forest was set by the mysteriously vanished seventh sect master of the Six Paths Sect, Yin Zunxiao, at 530 ters.
Therefore, in the hearts of many disciples of the Six Paths Sect, completing the Soul Suppressing Forest is considered impossible. Reaching the end would an becoming a Supre Sovereign, mastering all heavens, and ruling the universe.
From their perspective, Ye Chen obviously could not be such a person.
At this mont, the disciples believed that Wu Duan Cang was intentionally making things difficult for Ye Chen, convinced that Ye Chen’s aspiration to beco the Chief Disciple was a re fantasy. Therefore, he used the Soul Suppressing Forest as a pretext to humiliate him.
Yet, these disciples were all wrong. Wu Duan Cang genuinely hoped Ye Chen could work a miracle. Including Elder Dao Pao, many elders of the Six Paths Sect were full of expectations for Ye Chen at this mont.
Ye Chen could defeat Liu Yunmiao of the Heavenly Repairing Realm despite being only at the Heavenly God Realm. This already demonstrated Ye Chen’s supre bloodline and extraordinary potential, which were truly exceptional.
The Soul Suppressing Forest tests one’s divine soul and Dao heart. If Ye Chen could truly traverse the entire forest, it would indicate that he possessed not only extraordinary talent but also the Dao heart to beco a supre existence!
If Ye Chen’s potential was indeed heaven-defying to this extent, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it seed destined that he would beco a fearso, demonic figure capable of achieving supre sovereignty.
In doing so, Ye Chen just might fulfill his grand ambition and lead the Six Paths Sect to beco the First Sect in the Outer Realm, accomplishing even what the founding patriarch Xiao Shuihan could not.
At this mont, seeing the playful expressions of the disciples, Ye Chen understood that navigating the Soul Suppressing Forest would not be a simple task.
However, Ye Chen’s expression remained calm. He noticed the expectation in Wu Duan Cang’s eyes and agreed, "Very well, I am willing to attempt the Soul Suppressing Forest."
Upon these words, Wu Duan Cang’s eyes lit up slightly. He then clapped his hands and said in a loud voice, "Yang Qianyu, where are you!"
"Boom!"
Suddenly, from a distant peak in the Six Paths Sect, a formidable wave emanated. A powerful and awe-inspiring figure soared skyward.
This figure was grand in aura and moved at extre speed. With a flash of Streaming Light in the sky, a figure of extraordinary grace and transcendence appeared before Wu Duan Cang.
This figure had flowing black hair, wore a Daoist robe, and an extrely sharp sword hung at his waist. His eyes seed to contain the cycles of the universe, appearing exceptionally distinguished—it was Yang Qianyu.
As the foremost disciple of the Six Paths Sect, Yang Qianyu was incredibly self-demanding, focusing solely on cultivation. Thus, when Ye Chen arrived, he hadn’t co out to join the commotion. Hearing Wu Duan Cang’s call, he ca forth.
"Master, Sect Master."
Yang Qianyu greeted Elder Dao Pao and Wu Duan Cang with a look of inquiry in his eyes.
Seeing this, Ye Chen’s eyes flashed. No wonder Yang Qianyu appeared so similar to Elder Dao Pao in temperant—it turned out he was Elder Dao Pao’s disciple.
"Heh, Qianyu, your division of realms has beco even more profound."
At this mont, Elder Dao Pao looked at Yang Qianyu with a satisfied smile. As his disciple, Yang Qianyu had received his earnest teachings and did not disappoint, achieving comndable results.
"Master flatters ."
Yang Qianyu replied respectfully.
And at this mont, Wu Duan Cang also nodded at Yang Qianyu in satisfaction before turning to Ye Chen, "This is Ye Chen. He wishes to beco the Chief Disciple of the Six Paths Sect, and I have agreed."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Yang Qianyu was slightly surprised and looked at Ye Chen. He had always strived for the position of Chief Disciple, and hearing Ye Chen’s aspiration elicited no anger but curiosity.
Observing that Ye Chen’s division of realms was rely at the sixth level of the Heavenly God Realm, Yang Qianyu was even more astonished and smiled as he spoke, "For this brother Ye Chen to aspire for the position of Chief Disciple, it appears that he has extraordinary capabilities to have received the Sect Master’s approval."
"He indeed does."
Wu Duan Cang nodded in agreent.
At this mont, Ye Chen looked at Yang Qianyu, and a sense of goodwill arose. Yang Qianyu was humble, focused on cultivation, and remained calm and composed in situations, without a hint of annoyance at soone like Ye Chen vying for the Chief Disciple position, which was indeed rare.
Then, Wu Duan Cang said, "I’ve called you here today to demonstrate for Ye Chen by walking through the Soul Suppressing Forest."
