Earlier, Ye Yuan had indeed intentionally suppressed the power of the dragon wave. Otherwise, it would likely really draw the heavenly tribulation!
With Ye Yuan's present strength, calling down the heavenly tribulation was no different from seeking death.
"H-Haha, what's the harm in telling you. Your parents have already been sent to the Central Capital! If you have the capabilities, go to the Fierce Gale World and rescue them back!" Shangguan Wenrui said with his mouth full of blood.
Ye Yuan's expression fell, and he thought to himself that it was indeed so!
"Looks like Zhao Tianyin had long guessed that I wouldn't die that easily and wanted to use my parents to threaten me!" Ye Yuan said solemnly.
"Zhao Tianyin isn't as simple as you think! Moreover, with your parents in his hands, you're not his match at all! H-Haha, I know that you'll definitely go and save your parents. Even if I can't kill you, Zhao Tianyin will also kill you! Ye Yuan, you can't escape the word, death, in the end!" Shangguan Wenrui cursed venomously.
"Noisy!"
Ye Yuan slapped a palm over again, ending Shangguan Wenrui's life.
This fellow still did not forget to curse him when facing imminent death. Really did not know life from death.
But Ye Yuan had no choice but to admit that the current situation was rather troublesome, and he was also very worried about Ye Hang and Ren Hongling's safety.
Zhao Tianyin this fellow indeed had the demeanor of a fierce and ambitious person!
Once he faced his adversary squarely, it was simply taking every conceivable possibility into account!
Now that Ye Hang and Ren Hongling landed in his hands, Ye Yuan was somewhat hesitant in taking action.
. . . . . .
In the City Lord Manor, Ye Yuan released all the saved people from inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda and removed the restrictions on their bodies one by one.
With Ye Yuan's current strength, even if Qi Hai they all knew that the Vast Heaven Pagoda was in his hands, he did not need to worry about anything either.
This bit of restrictions was naturally not worth mentioning to him.
When Qi Hai and the rest saw Ye Yuan again, the shock in their hearts could be imagined.
Ye Yuan saved them on top of city walls and faced off with those ten great half-step Boundless Realm powerhouses.
Now that Ye Yuan appeared in the City Lord Manor, that was enough to explain everything!
Ye Yuan actually relied on his own strength and triumphed over ten great half-step Boundless Realm powerhouses?
This sort of battle result was seriously too astonishing!
Even by pouring in all of the Endless World's strength, they were also unable to defeat those ten people.
But Ye Yuan was merely just at the peak Ninth Level Soul Sea right now, and he actually did it!
Just how formidable to what degree was the current Ye Yuan?!
Chapter 695 - True Dragon Heavenly Lord!
"Ye Yuan, apologies! I didn't protect your father and mother well!"
Qi Hai's words revealed thick self-condemnation in it.
He was the Endless World's strongest person and also the Realmlord. He actually did not even detect the enemy's intentions, and the old nest was wiped out all at once. It was indeed an action that was very derelict of one's duties.
If it were in the past, even if Qi Hai had some self-reproach, he would not say it out like this either.
But now, Ye Yuan actually already m.a.t.u.r.ed into a martial artist much more powerful than him.
When facing Ye Yuan, Qi Hai's tiny bit of superiority feeling already vanished without a trace.
The present Ye Yuan was the Endless World's strongest person!
Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "Forget it. Worrying over these now is not very useful either. Zhao Tianyin intentionally schemed against those who had no intention of doing so. Wu Fang City being breached is also something within expectations."
Even Ye Yuan himself also did not think that Zhao Tianyin could actually create nine half-step Boundless Realm experts!
So from the very beginning, the outcome of Wu Fang City falling into the enemy's hands was destined.
After everyone sat down, Ye Yuan sat at the seat of honor position.
There, represented the position of the strongest person!
"Now that the Fierce Gale World's great army had severe losses in the Endless World, they already can't stir up much of a wave anymore. From today onwards, you all start to proceed with counterattacks! But the Fierce Gale World's loss is already fixed, and they have already suffered due punishment. So don't commit too many killings. Those who are willing to surrender, gather them together first. Then group them up and send them back to the Fierce Gale World!' Ye Yuan instructed with the bearing of a sovereign.
"Yes, Lord Ye Yuan!' Ning Yixian clasped his hands and said.
Unknowingly, a change also occurred with Ning Yixian's attitude towards Ye Yuan. Even the term of address changed.
This was the pressure that a true powerhouse gave people!
In the world of martial artists, it has always been the strong who reigned supreme.
Your strength is powerful, other people will submit to you wholeheartedly. Your strength is weak, others won't even be inclined to give you a glance.
Regardless whether it was looking at strength or achievements, Ye Yuan was fully deserving of the word, 'Lord.'
Before Ye Yuan exited the God Prohibited Demon Region, the Endless World could be said to have already been fully occupied by the enemy.
It was Ye Yuan overturning the raging tides alone, killing off all the strongest Fierce Gale World people in the Endless World!
This kind of strength, even thinking about it made people give rise to awe and reverence in their hearts.
Ye Yuan was not that sort of authentic aboriginal. He was formerly a high and lofty Alchemy Emperor. Towards these people's changes in mentality, he did not have any discomfort, getting into character very naturally.
Furthermore, Ye Yuan knew that along with the increase in his strength, many friends that he could originally converse with would also gradually drift apart.
Loneliness at the peak was this logic.
Just like Long Tang, Nanfeng aunt and niece they all, they were originally all fellow apprentices at the same sect.
But now, even if Ye Yuan wanted to drop his attitude and get close to them, they would also feel unnatural.
This was the change in status brought by strength.
Even though Ye Yuan knew that Nanfeng aunt and niece already had their hearts committed to him, the disparity between their strength ordained that they were not people of the same world.
Of course, Ye Yuan was not that sort of people who forget their roots.
Since they were friends, Ye Yuan would definitely guide them a bit and let them have even more space to advance in the future.
Ye Yuan nodded his head and asked, "The places that the Fierce Gale World passed through were virtually all massacring the cities. But why was there not much killing when they breached Wu Fang City?"
Ye Yuan had a few simple glances in the city and discovered that Wu Fang City's preservation was still considered pretty intact as if it did not get into a war. This made Ye Yuan very surprised.
Also, these people in front of him, Ye Yuan originally thought that they were pretty much done for. Who knew that they were only controlled.
That dumb Shangguan Wenrui actually even wanted to use them to threaten him.
"I've heard them talk about this before. They were planning on gathering us, these people, together, and choose a time to carry out a collective sacrifice! Originally, it was also going to be carried out these few days, but didn't expect that Ye Yuan, you, actually killed your way back." Qi Hai answered.
Ye Yuan was enlightened. Turns out that it wasn't not taking action, it was just not yet started.
Wu Fang City here were all the big shots of the Endless World. Each and every one of
their strength was unfathomable.
Once they died, using that sort of crude way to collect the sanguine power was truly too much of a waste. Therefore, that was why they had the thought of gathering them together to sacrifice.
It was just that Shangguan Wenrui did not think that Ye Yuan would return domineeringly, directly crushing ten mighty half-step Boundless Realms, and freeing Wu Fang City.
Ye Yuan swept a glance over everyone's faces and suddenly asked rather worriedly, "Is Brother Zihui . . . still around?"
Hearing 'Brother Zihui' this name, the expression on everyone's faces could not help becoming absent-minded and did not recall who 'Brother Zihui' was for a moment.
It was still Ren Xingchun who recovered first and hurriedly said, "Xu Zihui should be fine! Soul Sea Realm martial artists were imprisoned by them in the dungeons east of the city."
Only after hearing Ren Xingchun's words, was Ye Yuan's suspended heart put back in its original spot.
Xu Zihui was Father's savior. Ye Yuan owed him a huge favor. If he died, he would be very upset.
Only after hearing Ren Xingchun's words, did everyone know that this Xu Zihui was merely a Soul Sea Realm martial artist.
But everybody could not help becoming very envious. This Xu Zihui could actually obtain Lord Ye Yuan's good graces.
Following that, Ye Yuan personally went to the city-east dungeons and released Xu Zihui, and removing the restrictions on his body.
When Xu Zihui knew Ye Yuan's current status and strength but lowered himself to let him out of the dungeons personally, it moved him to the extreme.
Later, this interlude was leaked out by goodness knows who, passing on with approbation.
Lord Ye Yuan's high morality reached the clouds and did not forget old friends.
This added the halo of a trace of humanity on the Ye Yuan who was later deified.
After this battle, Ye Yuan gradually became the figure on top of the Endless World's altar. His fame was even greater than the Grand Yan True Sect's back then.
While the Grand Yan True Sect sacrificing the entire sect's strength to protect the Endless World's peace was touching and deserving of a song, Ye Yuan turned the foul and rotten into the rare and ethereal, utterly crushing the Fierce Gale World with his own strength.
Such an achievement could be said to be unprecedented and unrepeatable.
The martial artists who witnessed Wu Fang City's great battle gave Ye Yuan a daoist title, named 'True Dragon Heavenly Lord!"
After Ye Yuan ascended to the Divine Realm, the Endless World's martial artists spontaneously forged a monument of Ye Yuan in Wu Fang City, in order to commemorate 'True Dragon Heavenly Lord' Ye Yuan!
Ever since then, Ye Yuan's name of 'True Dragon Heavenly Lord' was passed down for as long as ten thousand years in the Endless World!
His achievement was engraved in people's minds for generations to come!
Of course, these were all the afterword.
After Ye Yuan rescued Xu Zihui, he gave him a large batch of medicinal pills, enough for him to cultivate to peak Divine Traversing Realm.
Following that, Ye Yuan commanded people to search everywhere for the news of the Tranquil Cloud Sect's disciples.
At the same time, the Endless World's counteroffensive also officially raised the curtains.
But all of this had nothing to do with Ye Yuan already.
Instructing everything properly, Ye Yuan started closed-seclusion!
The Endless World's matters were already settled. But the Fierce Gale World's matters had not ended yet.
Not eliminating Zhao Tianyin, the Fierce Gale World and Endless World would never know peace!
Before going to the Fierce Gale World, Ye Yuan must break through to the Divine Traversing Realm!
Chapter 696 - Divine Soul Condensing
On a spacious field a thousand miles outside of Wu Fang City, over ten martial artists were waiting in full battle formation.
Qi Hai, Qin Hongtao, Ning Yixian, and so on. These pinnacle powerhouses of the Endless World were currently standing guard for a young man.
Ye Yuan's eyes were tightly shut, calming his spirit and focusing his mind, currently making the final preparations before breaking through.
Ye Yuan had a calm expression, facing the breakthrough that was about to arrive very indifferently. However, Qi Hai and the rest each had solemn looks on their faces, as if they were the ones transcending the tribulation.
The war had not ended now, Ye Yuan was the Endless World's greatest hope. There must not be any accidents.
Crack!
All of a sudden, a bolt out of the blue echoed. The sky that was originally clear without clouds for thousands of miles actually started to have dark clouds gathering overhead.
Seeing this commotion, Qi Hai and co.'s expressions changed.
"Ye Yuan is only breaking through to the Divine Traversing Realm here. Why would there be such a huge tumult?"
"Even though that heavenly tribulation has yet to form completely, looking at this spectacle, it's simply even stronger than other people transcending the heavenly tribulation of Boundless Realm!"
"No wonder Ye Yuan possessed such horrifying strength at the Soul Sea Realm. His heavenly tribulation when breaking through is too outrageous!"
The commotion of Ye Yuan transcending tribulation was naturally incomparably outrageous. If not for so, how was he able to rely on the heavenly tribulation back then to smite the Third Level Divine Traversing Shangguan Yunrong down two minor realms?"
But in Ye Yuan's view, the heavenly tribulation this time was still a little weaker compared to the last time.
After all, he was breaking through the Lower Three Realm's great threshold the last time. The Heavenly Dao's obstruction to him was much greater than this time.
Such a thing was bound to still happen when breaking through from the Middle Three Realms to the Upper Three Realms.
This point, Ye Yuan had long been mentally prepared.
This sort of advancement from breaking through the fetters of Heavenly Dao was a one-time wide margin leap in life. One was bound to suffer the Heavenly Dao's merciless lashing.
And Ye Yuan's strength was much greater compared to ordinary martial artists. The obstruction he received would definitely be much greater than ordinary people.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Frenzied lightning snakes descended in a wild dance, bombarding the place Ye Yuan was at violently.
Yet, Ye Yuan's place did not have any bit of essence energy undulation.
"Hiss . . . Ye Yuan is actually using his physical body to forcefully withstand the heavenly tribulation! No, wait! He . . . He's using the heavenly tribulation to temper his fleshy body?" Qi Hai muttered when he saw this scene.
The way Ye Yuan transcended tribulations, the impact it brought to him was too great.
He had never thought before that transcending tribulations could actually be done in this fashion.
The first round of heavenly tribulation, Ye Yuan actually even could not be bothered to use essence energy!
Within those berserk lightning snakes, Ye Yuan was seemingly a small rowboat. But this small rowboat was as if nailed to the sea surface; not budging an inch!
In the blue-violet lightning, a streak of azure light gradually lit up. Layers of azure dragon scale actually faintly birthed on Ye Yuan's skin!
The lightning tribulation was getting stronger and stronger. But Ye Yuan felt that it had the trend of getting increasingly weaker. Bombarding on his body actually had less and less of a feeling.
"Tsk tsk, the might of the dragon race's physical body is indeed extraordinary! I wonder to what degree this fleshy body of mine can attain if I keep on strengthening it!" In the heavenly tribulation, Ye Yuan gasped with admiration.
Very soon, the first round of heavenly tribulation passed. Ye Yuan was completely unscathed.
This scene left the guarding Qi Hai and the rest speechless for a long time. They even forgot their mission
for coming here today for some time.
Under such a horrifying heavenly tribulation, there were actually people who could be completely unscathed!
Ye Yuan this fellow was truly a freak!
This was the thought that everyone had right now without prior consultation.
That day when Ye Yuan slew ten great half-step Boundless Realm powerhouses, they were put away into the Vast Heaven Pagoda by Ye Yuan and did not see Ye Yuan take action at all.
Ye Yuan's might was only imagined by them.
But Ye Yuan transcending tribulation today, they finally saw with their own eyes that soul-stirring might of Ye Yuan!
Especially Qi Hai. He was already not far away from transcending tribulation and ascending. Regarding the might of heavenly tribulation, he even had a feeling faintly from forces beyond his control.
He judged himself that under such a heavenly tribulation, even if he was able to transcend it, it was also very hard to do it as lightheartedly as Ye Yuan.
Very soon, the second round, third round, fourth round, each wave of heavenly tribulation was fiercer than the last. But Ye Yuan transcended through all of them very easily.
When it reached the fifth round, dual-colored lightning tribulation arrived as scheduled.
"5-in-9 heavenly tribulation! Lightning and soul dual tribulations! Hiss . . ." Seeing that scene which awed the heart, Qi Hai drew a cold breath.
Qi Hai once again deeply felt that might of Ye Yuan's strength!
The dual-colored lightning tribulation at this time was much more powerful than when Ye Yuan was breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm. But Ye Yuan's growth in this major boundary was even more!
The dual-colored lightning tribulation which heavily wounded Ye Yuan at that time did not bring him too much trouble at this time. He did not even make use of that black bead.
The heavenly tribulation dissipated. The sky restored clarity again.
"You guys, look! What's that!" Somebody suddenly screamed, as if he saw something inconceivable.
Everyone was still immersed in that horrifying dual-colored lightning tribulation earlier at this time and did not pay attention.
