Sunset Peak was the first peak of Fallen Maple Bodhidharma, and it was also where the entrance to the mountain was.
Ye Yuan stood on the plaza, carefully feeling the thick to the extreme spiritual energy all around, and he could not help feeling vicissitudes of emotion.
This Fallen Maple Bodhidharma should be on an offset of the Heavenspan Mountain.
Cultivating in this kind of place would simply yield twice the results with half the effort!
Just as he was ruminating, Ye Yuan’s gaze suddenly flickered, looking at the arrival with a smile that was not a smile.
“Hahaha … Ye Yuan, you want to beg for mercy from this empyrean? This empyrean tells you, it’s impossible!” Lin Changqing took a step out of the void and used a sympathetic gaze to look at Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan was also sizing up Lin Changqing.
Recalling back then, when Lin Changqing descended upon Heavenly Eagle Imperial City, how haughty and all-powerful was that?
If not for Treasure Pig flying off the handle and sending him flying with a sneeze, perhaps Ye Yuan would have long been killed by Lin Changqing.
Even if the Ye Yuan back then had millions of methods, he could only look and do nothing.
But a thousand years passed. Lin Changqing broke through his cultivation realm and became a Second Firmament Empyrean. Even so, now he could no longer muster up Ye Yuan’s interest.
With Ye Yuan’s current strength, he could smack a Second Firmament Empyrean to death with one slap.
No matter how strong this Second Firmament Empyrean was!
Looking at Lin Changqing again, Ye Yuan’s eyes already carried a trace of pity.
“Lin Changqing, not seeing you for a thousand years, you disappoint me too much,” Ye Yuan shook his head and said with a sigh.
Lin Changqing laughed coldly and said, “What? Want to preserve the last of your dignity? It’s no use! During these 1000 years, this empyrean’s strength has already grown to an extent that you can’t imagine! Experience it well!”
Finished talking, the aura on Lin Changqing’s body erupted out without the slightest reservation.
On Sunset Peak, the berserk aura swept out, making people give sidelong glances.
“Martial Uncle Changqing has actually already broken through, becoming a Second Firmament Empyrean! His cultivation speed is also too fast, right?”
“These … These are three types of laws, Martial Uncle Changqing actually fused three kinds of law powers!”
“Who is that kid? To actually dare provoke Martial Uncle Changqing, is he tired of living?”
… …
Lin Changqing’s seniority in Fallen Maple Bodhidharma was extremely high. His talent was also extremely great.
He had not shown himself for a long time. Now that he displayed his strength, it directly renewed the understanding of his fellow apprentices, and it naturally aroused a wave of exclamations.
At this time, Zheng Yufeng also just happened to rush over. Seeing Lin Changqing reveal his strength, his pupils could not help constricting.
“Junior Apprentice Brother Changqing he … is also too monstrous!”
In terms of talent, Lin Changqing was first-rate among them fellow apprentice brothers.
His cultivation time was the shortest, but it was already almost catching up to them, these senior apprentice brothers.
In this 1000 years, Lin Changqing dwelt in the deep seclusion of his own home and virtually rarely showed face.
Before closed-seclusion, he still only fused two kinds of law powers.
Zheng Yufeng did not expect that now, he actually fused three kinds of law powers!
Fusing two kinds of law powers and fusing three kinds, those were totally different concepts.
If they all, these people, were geniuses, then Lin Changqing was the genius among geniuses!
He already won these senior apprentice brothers!
Feeling the strength that Lin Changqing exhibited, Ye Yuan was also slightly surprised.
Just looking at this scene before his eyes, Lin Changqing’s talent was even stronger than the Northernmost Steppe’s Feng Tianyang!
Well-deserving of being a Heavenly Emperor Bodhimanda! The disciples were indeed outstandingly talented.
It was just that … Ye Yuan’s realm was significantly lower than Feng Tianyang’s back then and he already annihilated him.
Now that his realm was on par with Lin Changqing’s, how could Ye Yuan take him seriously?
Moreover, Ye Yuan’s current trump cards were far more compared to that time!
“Hahaha, saw that? Only a genius like this empyrean can match up to Junior Apprentice Sister Meng Li! An ant like you also have delusions of grandeur, wanting to contend with a proud eagle too? Now, beg me! Maybe … I’ll be so benevolent that I’ll let you off!” Lin Changqing said with a loud laugh.
What he and Ye Yuan signed was a divine soul contract and not a Heavenly Dao Oath.
If both parties were willing, they could get rid of the agreement.
Of course, it must be both parties agreeing. If one party was not willing, this agreement would continue taking effect.
Zheng Yufeng looked at Ye Yuan and could not help smiling coldly.
So what if Second Sage?
So what if the Dragon Clan’s Heaven’s Chosen Son?
Junior Apprentice Brother Changqing was also a peerless genius that was hard to come across in a million years!
Even if Ye Yuan could surpass Junior Apprentice Brother Changqing in the future, he did not have that time either!
Over 2000 years’ time, it was simply insufficient to let Ye Yuan catch up to Junior Apprentice Brother Changqing.
Ye Yuan was improving, but Junior Apprentice Brother Changqing was similarly improving!
When Ye Yuan heard that, he could not help but laugh in spite of himself and said, “Lin Changqing, really don’t know where your sense of superiority comes from. You once bragged and boasted to be a genius in front of me, but now, a thousand years have passed, you’re just letting me look at this? What’s even more laughable is that you’re actually still patting yourself on the back!”
Lin Changqing’s face fell slightly and he said in a cold voice, “Brat, you really don’t want face when it’s given! Posturing isn’t done like this! You know that by getting a treasure that blocks your strength and using tricks to mislead people, you can be impudent in front of this empyrean? If not for that the 2000 years agreement hasn’t arrived yet, this empyrean would slap you to death with one palm right now!”
“Treasure that blocks strength? Using tricks to mislead people??”
The corners of Ye Yuan’s mouth revealed a hint of amusement, and he said with a light smile, “Then open your eyes and take a look at whether or not I’m using tricks to mislead people then!”
Chapter 2179. What Kind of Ant You Are! |
With Ye Yuan as the center, a circular aura slowly pushed outward.
Under Ye Yuan’s aura, Lin Changqing’s world domain seemed like paper paste, directly being crumbled apart.
That feeling was like an egg meeting a rock.
Lin Changqing’s expression changed wildly, frenziedly urging his world power, attempting to block Ye Yuan’s advancement.
However, it was no use at all!
The two people’s engagement was like a strongman and a child pushing each other.
The strongman pushed the child completely one-sidedly.
The aura extended out very quickly, reaching a distance of 5000 feet.
This radius of 5000 feet was water-tight and impregnable. Ye Yuan was the sovereign!
Everyone looked at this scene in shock. They were unable to imagine why Ye Yuan’s domain would be so solid.
The Lin Changqing who was likewise a Second Firmament Empyrean actually did not even have the strength to fight back.
Lin Changqing’s himself, his eyeballs even popped out.
He looked at Ye Yuan with a stunned face, just feeling that his min
d was somewhat numb and unable to wrap itself around this.
“You … You … Second Firmament Empyrean, this … How is this possible?”
Lin Changqing somewhat doubted whether or not his eyes had problems.
He thought before, Ye Yuan was extraordinarily gifted and could break through to the True God Realm in a short thousand years.
He could even break through to the late-stage True God Realm.
But he never dreamed that Ye Yuan only used a short thousand years’ time to go from being a Celestial Deity to becoming a Second Firmament Empyrean!
Now, Ye Yuan was already standing on the same starting line as him!
Furthermore, Ye Yuan’s domain power was extremely condensed. It was clearly more than a level higher than him.
This indicated that Ye Yuan did not pursue speed blindly and disregard his foundation.
This … How was this possible?
Zheng Yufeng also opened his mouth wide, with disbelief written all over his face.
Junior Apprentice Brother Changqing had always been called a monster in Fallen Maple Bodhidharma. His talent was extremely great and his cultivation speed extremely fast.
But his talent was simply trash in front of Ye Yuan!
“Remember that a certain somebody said before, I and Li-er and you, will never be people of the same world! You said it correctly! You and I will never be people of the same world!”
Ye Yuan’s words struck the heart directly, making Lin Changqing’s mind trembled.
The same sentence, but the meaning that it had was entirely different.
That was a kind of contempt that looked down from a height!
A thousand years later, Ye Yuan and his positions had quietly switched over.
He had never thought much of Ye Yuan before from the bottom of his heart.
An ant that came from an imperial city, how could he compete with him, this peerless heaven’s chosen that came from a Bodhidharma?
But Ye Yuan used Second Firmament Empyrean cultivation and shattered all of his pride to smithereens!
This was just a thousand years!
Another thousand years, what realm would Ye Yuan reach?
The 2000 years agreement … was truly laughable!
A thousand years later, just based on his cultivation realm, Ye Yuan would be able to trample him to death like stepping on an ant!
Zheng Yufeng had a vacant look, he finally understood what Ye Yuan’s words when he entered the mountain meant.
“A thousand years later, I can even kill him by puffing out a breath. Is there still a need to compete?”
Yes, there was naturally no need to compete anymore!
A thousand years later, Ye Yuan would at least be at the middle-stage Empyrean Realm, or even a late-stage Empyrean Realm major power.
While Lin Changqing would at most be a Third Firmament Empyrean.
But even if Ye Yuan was only at the late-stage Empyrean Realm, smacking Lin Changqing to death with one slap would be sufficient.
So what even if fused together three kinds of law powers?
Suddenly, Lin Changqing seemed to have thought of something, his gaze turning intent.
Right, I still fused three kinds of law powers!
Even if he is Second Firmament Empyrean, so what?
In the same rank, I’m invincible!
He sucked in a deep breath, the proud demeanor on his body recovered once more, and he looked at Ye Yuan and said with a cold smile, “Good! Since your present realm already caught up to mine, then our life-and-death agreement can be brought forward in advance!”
These words were somewhat shameless, even Zheng Yufeng felt his face turn red.
He clearly knew that he would not be able to win a thousand years later, he wanted to bring the fight forward now, what was this if not shameless?
Ye Yuan looked at Lin Changqing, his eyes full of pity as he said with a light smile, “Are you sure?”
Lin Changqing smiled coldly and said, “What? Are you scared?”
Ye Yuan laughed loudly and said, “Lin Changqing, back then, when you came to Heavenly Eagle, you viewed me as an ant and said that I couldn’t match up to Li-er. Today, I’ll let you see that you’re just an ant in my eyes, and also just how powerful Li-er’s man is!”
Hearing Ye Yuan said it like this, Lin Changqing felt his jealousy peak.
He thought that by relying on his talent, he would be able to move Junior Apprentice Sister Meng Li one day.
He also knew that for so many years, Li-er’s heart had never wavered before.
And now, Ye Yuan even grew to the extent of making him fearful.
Looking at it now, these two people were so fitting.
He became a clown instead!
But at this point now, it was clearly not the time to want face anymore.
“Fine, since that’s the case, then let’s amend the divine soul contract and start the life-and-death wager now!” Lin Changqing said with a cold sneer.
But Ye Yuan shook his head and could not help laughing as he said, “The ignorant are truly fearless! You’re still obsessing over the wager? That is no longer important! Isn’t your reliance having fused together three kinds of law powers? Now, I’ll stand right here, unleash your strongest strike. I’ll let you see what kind of an ant you are!”
Lin Changqing could not help being taken aback when he heard that.
Could this guy be a fool?
On Sunset Peak, a wave of snickering also came over.
“Where did this guy pop out from? Ran all the way here from afar to seek death?”
“Heh heh, strength is decent, but his head isn’t useful.”
“In this world, I’ve yet to hear that in the same rank, someone dares to withstand an attack that fused three kinds of laws!”
… …
After a thousand years of growth, Lin Changqing was no long no longer his goal.
Lin Changqing’s talent compared to Long Yuan was worlds apart.
Long Yuan was trampled underfoot by Ye Yuan, let alone Lin Changqing?
Killing Lin Changqing was merely a matter of snapping a finger.
Even if he really killed, Heavenly Emperor Fallen Maple also would not dare to say much.
But this place was the Bodhidharma that Li-er was at any rate. Furthermore, it looked like Li-er should have received considerable benefits in this place.
Even though Lin Changqing was Li-er’s pursuer, he could tell that he had more of admiration toward Li-er and was not shameless like Long Hao.
If he really killed Lin Changqing, it would not be good for everyone, and it would also make things difficult for Li-er.
Therefore, Ye Yuan could not be bothered to kill him either.
However, Ye Yuan still wanted to let Lin Changqing know that not only was he, Ye Yuan, worthy of Li-er.
Furthermore, in this world, only he was worthy of Li-er!
Canceling the divine soul agreement, Lin Changqing was still somewhat in the clouds, feeling puzzled.
Could this guy really be a fool?
“Ye Yuan, have you thought carefully? If this sword of mine goes down, you’ll die!” Lin Changqing said in a solemn voice.
Ye Yuan laughed in spite of himself and said, “I’m just letting you take a look at how great the disparity between you and me is!”
Lin Changqing’s gaze turned cold and he said in a cold voice, “Since you’re bent on seeking death, I presume that Li-er won’t blame me either! Bluecloud Truefeather Sword!”
One sword unleashing, three kinds of power of laws interweaved together, virtually slicing space apart.
The incomparably swift and fierce sword light slashed through the void and headed straight for Ye Yuan!
Ye Yuan stood with his hands behind his back. Facing this astonishing sword, his expression did not change and his heart did not race, without the slightest intention of avoiding.
Bang!
The void trembled, the earth shook.
But Ye Yuan
was as stable as Mount Tai, not budging an inch!
Chapter 2180. Repeated Blows! |
On Sunset Peak, everyone’s expression became extremely fascinating!
This move that was an attack sufficient to cleave apart mountains actually did not leave any traces on Ye Yuan’s body!
Similarly a Second Firmament Empyrean, why would such a thing happen?
Only after a while did everyone came to realize the truth, cries of exclamations linking up.
“Really blinded my dog eyes! Martial Uncle Changqing wouldn’t be intentionally going easy, right?”
“Facing a same rank opponent, no matter how weak the opponent, it’s also impossible to be completely unscathed by standing there and letting the other party hit, right?”
“Martial Uncle Changqing fused three kinds of law powers. Even a Third Firmament Empyrean also wouldn’t dare to forcefully resist his attacks, right?”
… …
Lin Changqing was a celestial figure in the eyes of these fellow sect members, an existence that they were unable to reach at all.
But today, Lin Changqing went all out and actually failed to leave behind any traces on his opponent’s body.
This kind of impact was seriously too intense.
Lin Changqing had a blank face. Looking at the Ye Yuan who was proud and unmoving, he muttered, “That’s impossible! This … How is this possible? Bluecloud Truefeather Sword actually can’t even leave a mark on his body?”
His words were full of a bitter flavor.
At this instant, he truly experienced the disparity between him and Ye Yuan.
Even just now, when Ye Yuan reached Second Firmament Empyrean, he still had not despaired like so before.
He still felt that he could compete with him, and that he still had the right to speak as equals.
But at this very moment, the last of his pride was also crushed into pieces!
Ye Yuan was already powerful until it made him despair!
Suddenly, Ye Yuan raised his head to look at the sky and said coolly, “This brother, you watched the show for so long. Shouldn’t you show yourself now?”
Everyone’s expression changed and could not help looking around.
Sure enough, a middle-aged person slowly walked out of the void and lightly clasped his hands at Ye Yuan as he said, “Heavenly Emperor Fallen Maple’s eldest disciple, Jun Mingxin, pays respect to the Priest Temple’s Second Sage! Junior Apprentice Brother Changqing offended Second Sage; this emperor apologizes on his behalf! Many thanks to Second Sage for showing mercy!”
