Even if Ye Yuan presently already had core disciple identity, he still had not entered the sect yet.
As long as there was Su Yuting mediating things in between, he believed that the sect should not blame him too much.
After all, a dead genius was no longer a genius.
A powerful aura was released, and Ye Hang's face changed due to that!
This Su Yulin actually also broke through to the Second Level Crystal Formation Realm!
This time, it was quite troublesome. Su Yulin and Wan Donghai were different. He was a pure martial artist with plentiful combat experiences!
This was truly something unexpected.
Chapter 202 - Essence Energy Ignition!
Ye Hang and Su Yulin participated in the Pill Grading Assembly, but in order not to draw attention, they deliberately suppressed their aura.
Now that it abruptly erupted, the shock it brought everyone could be imagined.
However, while Ye Hang was stunned by Su Yulin's breakthrough, how was Su Yulin not surprised by Ye Hang's breakthrough?
Su Yulin originally thought that with his Second Level Crystal Formation Realm strength, it was sufficient to take control of today's situation. But he did not think that Ye Hang, this variable, would pop out.
Furthermore, from Ye Hang's attack just now, it could be seen that his combat power was not as weak as the average alchemist!
Therefore, he did not talk nonsense like saying stepping over Ye Hang's corpse to kill Ye Yuan but gave this task to Su Yubai.
"Ye Yuan, you didn't imagine that you're ultimately still going to die in my hands, right? Today, I'm going to use your fresh blood to hold a memorial for Su Yishan's spirit in heaven!" Su Yubai said coldly.
"You're overthinking it! That time in the academy was your one and only chance. Once you missed it, there won't be that chance ever again!" Ye Yuan said coolly.
"Is that so? If you include me?" Yang Hao said.
"Your opponent is me! Ye Yuan, are you okay with dealing with Su Yubai?" Nanfeng Ruoqing blocked Yang Hao and asked Ye Yuan rather worriedly.
No matter what, Su Yubai was a half-step Crystal Formation Realm. His strength was way high than Ye Yuan.
"Piece of cake," Ye Yuan said with a smile.
"Humph! Blind, reckless fool! Go and die!" Su Yubai attacked Ye Yuan with the force of a thunderbolt.
Ye Hang's face turned cold. He was just about to move to stop it when Su Yulin rushed over!
Helpless, Ye Hang could only turn around and match up with Su Yulin.
"Yuan-er, you be careful! After father settles Su Yulin, I'll come to save you!" Ye Hang only had the time to throw Ye Yuan one sentence.
"Father only manage to deal with Su Yulin. It isn't so easy for this old thing to want to kill me!"
Ye Yuan also threw down a sentence. Activating Spirit Void Shattering Space, he drifted to dodge Su Yubai's attack.
At this moment, the entire great hall was already in great confusion. Both parties had completely sunk into a chaotic fight.
However, what determined the final fighting outcome was still the matchup among the Crystal Formation Realm martial artists!
As long as victory and defeat were determined between Ye Hang and Su Yulin, the scales of victory will tip towards the winning side!
Su Yubai's move missed, and he said with a cold sneer, "Trying to rely on movement techniques to shake me off? Naïve! Aren't you aware that half-step Crystal Formation Realm can train in Tier 3 martial techniques?"
"Tranquil Soul Step!"
Su Yubai gave a low cry, and his body actually vanished in thin air!
Ye Yuan suddenly felt his scalp tingle. A thick, bone piercing killing intent from the back.
Without even thinking, he revolved the Nine Swords Stance. Nine Ye Yuans appeared at the same time!
Boom!
The floor of the great hall was sent flying by Su Yubai's palm. Ye Yuan barely avoided this attack!
"Humph! This move again! You really think that I can't do anything about you?"
Su Yubai snorted coldly, and his figure disappeared once more!
"Heaven Flipping Palm, Overturning Heaven and Earth! Go to hell!"
Su Yubai's figure appeared on Ye Yuan's flank this time, but the move become a large area-of-effect attack!
Places where the palm wind swept through became bare! Forget about Ye Yuan only having nine silhouettes, even if there were 18 phantoms, they would also be struck by Su Yubai!
Even though the power was not as great as before, it still left Ye Yuan's nine silhouettes nowhere to hide!
Overturning Heaven and Earth was the Heaven Flipping Palm's ultimate move. It could only be executed after training to Great Circle rank.
Su Yubai had already gradually progressed this move for several decades. Executing it was effortless.
An enormous sense of danger came from the front!
"Careful, Yuan-er!" Although Ye Hang was in a great battle with Su Yulin, he was ultimately unable to set his mind at ease about Ye Yuan's side.
While he knew that his son was no longer the person he was, compared to Su Yubai, his cultivation realm was too low in the end!
"Humph! You'd better worry about yourself!" Su Yulin attacked with a palm, forcing Ye Hang to the point where his hands and feet were in a flurry.
Ye Yuan already had nowhere to avoid this attack!
"Essence Energy Ignition! Nine Swords Stance!"
Rumble!
Right then, Ye Yuan's body was like it was immolating. The essence energy in his entire body was seething!
At this moment, Ye Yuan actually did not dodge but activated the Nine Swords Stance at full power!
Rapidly, nine streaks of sword beams fired out chaotically towards Su Yubai!
Su Yubai was still immersed in the thrill of victory earlier, but now, his face changed greatly!
Nine streaks of horrifying to the extreme sword beams actually passed through his palm wind just like that, shooting over swiftly!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Ye Yuan took a palm from Su Yubai solidly, his body flying out like a kite with a broken string.
Su Yubai would never have thought that Ye Yuan would use this kind of internecine fighting method. Currently, he wanted to display his movement technique, but it was already too late!
Su Yubai could only dodge on the spot!
However, these nine streaks of sword light were incomparably dense. How could it be easy for him to dodge all of it?
A severed arm suddenly flew up!
Ye Yuan's sword beam actually shaved off one of Su Yubai's arm!
Su Yubai barely managed to evade eight streaks of sword beams, but was unable to dodge this ninth sword beam!
He utilized all the essence energy in his body to defend against this streak of sword beam, but this sword beam disregarded his half-step Crystal Formation Realm essence energy protection, chopping off one of his arms like breaking a dead branch from a tree!
"AHH . . . !"
A miserable cry echoed out. Su Yubai was in an agonizing pain.
"Yuan-er!" Ye Hang clearly saw just now that Ye Yuan was sent flying. Forcing Su Yulin back with a palm, he wanted to free himself to go over.
"Trying to leave? Not so easy! Hang on, Second Brother! I'll come right away after taking care of Ye Hang!"
Su Yulin latched onto Ye Hang persistently and did not have the intention of bothering with Su Yubai.
Ye Hang was originally in the weaker position when facing Su Yulin. With Su Yulin entangling with him and not letting him go, Ye Hang essentially could not shake him off!
"Go to hell, Su Yulin!"
Being pestered by Su Yulin, Ye Hang was worried about Ye Yuan's safety. Each move executed was a suicidal fighting style and actually suppressed Su Yulin for a moment!
"Ah! My arm! Why? I clearly activated essence energy protection! Why was it still like this?"
Su Yubai could not understand how could an attack unleashed by a Se
cond Level Spirit Condensation Realm possibly directly disregard his essence energy shield?
That was just one streak of sword light!
How could a sword beam fired out by a Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm possibly sever a half-step Crystal Formation Realm's arm directly?
He did not know that when Ye Yuan released the Nine Swords Stance earlier, he used the complementing martial technique for the Spirit Bristle Nine Yang Divine Art, Mortal Chapter's Second Skill: Essence Energy Ignition!
Essence Energy Ignition was not some amazing skill. Its specialty was to increase the might of martial techniques, causing the martial techniques unleashed by a martial artist to increase in power several times over!
The Nine Swords Stance was originally an extremely powerful martial technique, even though it was limited by Ye Yuan's realm and could not unleash its true power.
But after the might of the Nine Swords Stance was increased multiple times, it was sufficient to kill the half-step Crystal Formation Realm Su Yubai!
Su Yubai should be thankful that this streak of sword light did not hit his vital points. Or else, it would not just be a severed arm right now!
"Ah! Ye Yuan! I'm going to kill you! Go die!"
Su Yubai went berserk!
Chapter 203 - Unexpected Interference!
Everyone was dumbfounded!
A Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm and half-step Crystal Formation Realm's match. The result was actually both suffering a loss!
"What the hell? How can Ye Yuan be so strong? Su Yubai is a veteran half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert. He actually had an arm chopped off directly!"
"Yeah. A Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm junior could actually defeat a half-step Crystal Formation Realm in a few rounds. Is this a joke?"
"Is this really that trash Ye Yuan? He clearly did not even have a penny to his name not long ago, and now, he can actually already stand on the same level together with us, the older generation?"
Everyone was speechless with shock. At Ye Yuan's age, he should be forming ties with their sons and nephews in the same generation.
But now, they had to admit that Ye Yuan was already on an entirely different level from their sons and nephews! Ye Yuan already possessed the strength to threaten, even kill some of them, the senior generation experts!
To think that a 15-year-old youth was already on the same level as them. These people felt rather peculiar, but even more so, their inadequacy.
What a fine son Ye Hang gave birth to! Many people sighed emotionally in their hearts.
After Ye Yuan hit the ground, with a puhwark, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
He forcefully took a hit from the palm wind. All of his organs were currently in turmoil; all of them shifted places.
Luckily, Su Yubai scattered the palm strength in order to hit him. Otherwise, the full power attack from a half-step Crystal Formation Realm, even if it was the palm wind, was also not something that the current Ye Yuan could withstand.
Without the slightest hesitation, after hitting the ground, Ye Yuan fished out a medicinal pill to swallow and started healing his injuries.
However, he did not dare to meditate to recuperate. This was a battlefield right now. If somebody were to seize the opportunity to give him a blow, he would be screwed.
"I'm going to kill you, Ye Yuan!"
Su Yubai's roar shook until the roof nearly collapsed. It was evident just how furious he was at the moment!
Su Yubai temporarily used essence energy to seal the wound and directly charged towards Ye Yuan.
Su Yubai was only missing an arm which did not affect his movement. But Ye Yuan was presently heavily wounded. It was impossible for the circulation of essence energy to be as smooth as before.
However, at this time, he could not be bothered with his injuries. He could only forcefully revolve essence energy to deal with Su Yubai's pursue.
The one-arm Su Yubai pounced over with immense speed, so fast that when he arrived in front of Ye Yuan, his figure vanished once again,
Tranquil Soul Step!
This footwork was fleeting and ephemeral; it was extremely hard to determine the person's location!
Ye Yuan gritted his teeth and displayed Spirit Void Shattering Space to the maximum, wanting to avoid this attack from Su Yubai.
However, he suffered too heavy an injury in the end. His movement was not as agile as before.
"I'm going to tear you to shreds, Ye Yuan!"
An angry howl sounded beside Ye Yuan's ear. This fellow ran behind Ye Yuan again!
Bang!
Under everybody's astounded eyes, a figure flew out.
Not Ye Yuan, but Su Yubai!
Everyone only felt their eyes blur. A black-clothed martial artist blocked in front of Ye Yuan and looked indifferently at Su Yubai who had just flown out.
"All right?"
"Still okay. Won't die. Luckily, you made it in time."
"I truly did not expect that you achieved those lofty aspirations you said the other day so quickly. Truly remarkable!"
"Hur hur, give me another month, and I wouldn't look so miserable."
"En, I think so too. But, there's no need to waste time on this sort of people. You're someone destined to do great things."
"Haha, if he doesn't die, I don't have the mood to do great things! Oh right, I haven't congratulated Teacher Huyan for breaking through to the Crystal Formation Realm yet!"
"Hur hur, isn't it all thanks to you? Exercise your powers to recover. I'll stand guard for you!"
"En."
This black-clothed martial artist was none other than Huyan Yong who broke through to the Crystal Formation Realm after consuming the Crystal Formation Pill!
Back then, Huyan Yong was heavily wounded until he was coughing up blood after one hit from Su Yubai. But today, Huyan Yong sent Su Yubai flying with one blow. It could also be considered a greatly satisfying retribution.
After obtaining Ye Yuan 's Crystal Formation Pill, Huyan Yong had been in closed-seclusion without exiting these few days to breakthrough to the Crystal Formation Realm at full force. He finally broke through the bottleneck yesterday and became a Crystal Formation Realm powerhouse.
Huyan Yong spent an entire day to consolidate his realm and went to find Jiang Yunhe directly after leaving seclusion.
Jiang Yunhe's eyes nearly fell out after he saw Huyan Yong!
Huyan Yong only said that he was entering seclusion, but he actually broke through to the Crystal Formation Realm directly after completing seclusion. Jiang Yunhe could not help but be surprised.
Before Huyan Yong entered seclusion, he was only at the peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm!
According to common sense, wanting to cross this threshold needed at least over ten years, to first experience half-step Crystal Formation Realm before he could improve a step further and cross this heavenly chasm.
But now, Huyan Yong virtually broke through overnight. This was too unbelievable!
However, Huyan Yong did not explain much to Jiang Yunhe. He told Jiang Yunhe that he wanted to go to the Pill Grading Assembly.
Jiang Yunhe hesitated slightly before agreeing.
In reality, he wanted to go too. But due to his identity and sect rules, it was not convenient for him to show up.
When Huyan Yong rushed over to the Drunken Star Manor, he just happened to see the scene of Ye Yuan and Su Yubai both heavily wounded, and his pupils involuntarily constricted. He could not have imagined that Ye Yuan had actually m.a.t.u.r.ed to such an extent.
"Crystal Formation Realm powerhouse! Another Crystal Formation Realm powerhouse actually came! Who's this person? I've no recollection of him."
"Father, he's our academy's instructor, Huyan Yong. However, before I returned to the capital this time, he was still at the peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm. How did he already broke through to the Crystal Formation Realm after not seeing him for several days?"
"What? You said tha
t he was still at the peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm a few days ago? Not half-step Crystal Formation Realm? This . . . How is this possible?"
"Absolutely not mistaken!"
". . . . . ."
Huyan Yong's appearance thoroughly shattered the present situation. The forces over on the Su Family's side had thoughts of withdrawing after seeing Huyan Yong send Su Yubai flying with one palm.
Su Yubai was sent flying with one palm by Huyan Yong, aggravating his existing injuries.
However, what he was more shocked by was that Huyan Yong actually broke through to the Crystal Formation Realm! This fact intensified the shock.
To Su Yishan, Huyan Yong was only a junior from the younger generation. Now, this junior actually overtook him. Such utmost mockery.
"Huyan Yong! Y-You actually broke through! This is not possible!"
"Thanks to Elder Su's blessings, Huyan Yong broke through by luck," Huyan Yong said coolly.
"Huyan Yong! What audacity you have! As the academy's instructor, you actually intervened in secular affairs! You, this is violating the academy's rules! I'll highlight this to the dean and make him punish you severely!"
"As the Disciplinary Hall's First Elder, Elder Su's status and position are much more ill.u.s.trious than mine. I wonder why you're present here and even brutally exchanging blows with my student?"
"Humph! I'm here today as a member of the Su Family! There has nothing to do with the academy!"
"Is that so? This excuse of Elder Su's is so forced! However, I'm only here today to protect my student. As the academy's instructor, protecting the academy's genius students, this is still acceptable, right? Furthermore, Ye Yuan's identity is different from others. He's about to enter the sect right away. If he suffers any mishap here, who dares to shoulder the responsibility?"
Su Yubai was so angered that his face turned green.
He knew that these words were just excuses eked out by everyone. If the sect were to really investigate into this, nobody could shoulder it.
Chapter 204 - I’ll Also Disclose a Revelation!
With Huyan Yong guarding, Ye Yuan could rest at ease and circulate his powers to boldly refine the medicinal strength.
As for Su Yubai and Huyan Yong's crossing of verbal swords, he could not be bothered with it.
