Below the stage, everyone was extremely shocked.
The level of these two people's battle, they were simply unable to imagine it.
The 64 people taking part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave were all the Bamboo Groove Void Realm's top geniuses.
But these two people towered about the group of geniuses, reaching another level.
"Ye Yuan's blue pattern is so strange. It's actually not affected by Yang Shen's world power. It's like where Ye Yuan goes, it forcefully hews open a space that belongs to him. What in the world is that thing?"
At this time, Little Tong was holding Treasure Pig, currently standing together with Du Rufeng.
This place was the place with the best view.
Little Tong was also very interested in this fight, he naturally would not miss it.
Hearing Du Rufeng inquire, his two eyes narrowed slightly and he said, "It's … Heavenly Dao!"
Du Rufeng's face changed and he cried out in surprise, "H-Heavenly Dao? How is this possible?"
Little Tong used a tone that was not commensurate with his age and said with a solemn look, "It won't be wrong. That's the aura of Dao! Ye Yuan's comprehension toward the Dao has already reached an inconceivable realm. He can already spur Heavenly Dao to use for himself. Although this aura isn't strong enough yet, as his strength improves, this Heavenly Dao pattern will become more and more terrifying!"
Hearing Little Tong's explanation, the shock in Du Rufeng's heart could not be any greater.
Controlling Heavenly Dao for one's own use, this kind of thing, ordinary people did not even dare to think about it, but Ye Yuan already did it.
Martial artists comprehend Heavenly Dao to strengthen themselves.
But Ye Yuan could actually drive Heavenly Dao, this was too terrifying!
Actually, Little Tong was half-right.
These blue patterns were indeed the aura of Heavenly Dao, but it was not Heavenly Dao that Ye Yuan was spurring on.
These blue fine lines were Ye Yuan's own!
Other people breaking through to rank five, what they reached was Celestial Deity Realm. However, Ye Yuan embarked on a different path. His realm would naturally not be the same as well.
After Ye Yuan broke through to rank five, his divine sea underwent a change once more.
His divine vortex shrunk again, chaos divine essence also becoming more condensed.
That viscous aura already became thicker and thicker.
If one was to say the divine sea was as big as a lake in the beginning, then Ye Yuan's current divine vortex was at most the size of a pond.
Not only did Ye Yuan's divine essence not weaken, but it also grew even stronger than before instead.
Apart from this, countless blue lightning was born in Ye Yuan's divine sea.
These blue bolts of lightning were extremely similar to what he saw back then on the Heavenspan Mountain. It was just that in terms of aura, it was much, much weaker; totally not on the same level.
Ye Yuan discovered that when he faced the enemy, he could mobilize these blue lightning and make his attacks sharper. His defenses also became stronger.
As for world power, it was even more like paper paste in front of the blue patterns.
As long as it was not strong to a certain degree, Ye Yuan could split it apart easily.
Hence, Ye Yuan named this realm, Divine Vestige Realm!
Outsiders could not tell, but Yang Shen keenly felt his own suffering.
Ye Yuan's sword seemed ordinary and sloppy. But an extremely strange force was contained within, throwing his vital-energy sea into turmoil, virtually unable to control himself.
With several dozen swords, he actually had a feeling of the long sword slipping out of his hand.
"No way! This kid is too peculiar. I can't carry on like this!"
Yang Shen knew that at this rate, he would lose without a doubt.
"Time law!"
Right at this time, he urged time law to the extreme.
Ye Yuan's face changed and suddenly felt that his movements became slow like an ant.
Even shuttling through space also became much slower.
Yang Shen grinned hideously and said, "How can the profundities of time laws be what you can imagine! Let me tell you! Actually, the time law that I used on them was not my full strength at all! My time law has similarly been comprehended to third firmament! Didn't expect it, right? Now, you can go to hell! Unparalleled World Suppressing Saber!"
Right at this time, Yang Shen urged his saber arts to the extreme as well. The incomparably swift and fierce martial technique was practically shredding the space.
This blade wanted Ye Yuan's life!
Chapter 1835 - Divine Vestige Space, Untainted by Myriad Laws!
In Yang Shen's heart, Ye Yuan was his ultimate goal.
Killing a hundred Yi Qingxiangs was also not as important as killing one Ye Yuan.
Hence, when dealing with Yi Qingxiang them all, Yang Shen did not go all out.
While it was good to be able to kill, failing to kill was no big deal too.
The most important thing was that Ye Yuan had to die.
The instigator of all this was Ye Yuan.
Looking at Ye Yuan's sluggish movements, a hint of a hideous grin flashed across the corners of Yang Shen's mouth. A saver turned into a white streak, hacking over toward Ye Yuan's head.
However, just as Yang Shen's blade arrived in front of Ye Yuan's face, it suddenly stopped, as if frozen in the air.
His figure was unable to advance an inch forward.
In front of Yang Shen, there was seemingly boundless space, waiting for him to cross.
His saber cut through one layer of space after another, but it was unable to land on Ye Yuan.
Two supreme laws collided together violently!
"Hahaha, it's useless! In front of time laws, everything is in vain! Go to hell!"
Yang Shen let out a wild laugh, light radiating on his body. The long blade actually pushed another inch forward.
The blade was already less than an inch away from the top of Ye Yuan's head!
The piercing cold light made Ye Yuan somewhat unable to open his eyes.
Everyone's hearts leaped to their throats, looking at this soul-stirring scene.
The complexions of Baili Qingyan and the rest turned pale, looking nervous.
This blade landing, Ye Yuan would be done for!
But right at this time, countless blue filaments spread out of Ye Yuan's body frenziedly, like spiders spinning silk.
Yang Shen's face changed. These fine filaments acc.u.mulated more and more, wrapping the two of them up very quickly.
From the outside world, the inside completely could not be seen at all.
"This … What is this?" Du Rufeng's face changed as he asked.
A hint of terror also showed in Little Tong's eyes as he said, "This … seems to be a power similar to world power. But it also seems to be somewhat different. If my conjectures are right, Ye Yuan already won!"
Du Rufeng's gaze turned intent and he said, "Won just like this? I don't know what's happening inside!"
Little Tong said, "Although we don't know what's happening inside, this move is definitely extraordinary. Because … even I also felt danger!"
Du Rufeng turned pale with fright when he heard that. He was aware of what kind of existence Little Tong was.
Even he could actually feel danger. Then this blue filament ball was definitely extremely terrifying.
Inside the filament ball, Ye Yuan's two eyes showed an azure-blue color. Long sword swinging, it directly blew away Yang Shen's blade.
Yang Shen's gaze turned sharp and he exclaimed, "This … How is this possible? Time law!"
Yang Shen tried his best to urge time law, but time law seemed to have thoroughly lost connection with him, unable to feel it anymore.
This situation made his heart sink to rock-bottom.
Ye Yuan's azure-blue eyes looked at Yang Shen, his eyes not carrying the least bi
t of emotion as he said, "You held back your strength, but have you ever thought that I also held back my strength? Don't need to waste strength anymore. Inside this Divine Vestige Space, it's untainted by myriad laws! The rules here are set by me. All the laws that you comprehend in the Heavenspan World are useless!"
After Ye Yuan broke through to Divine Vestige Realm, he discovered that he had the ability to construct the Divine Vestige Space.
Once he entered the Divine Vestige Space, Ye Yuan could control all powers of law!
In this place, he was the sovereign!
Clearly, Yang Shen did not believe it at all. He laughed wildly when he heard that and said, "You set the rules? Do you think that you're the Creator? Killing people with laughter!"
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Don't believe? Watch! Time, stop!"
Only to see him lightly point a finger out, Yang Shen's body suddenly turned stiff.
He struggled desperately, but he discovered that he was unable to move at all!
Yang Shen was very familiar with time laws. He could sense that this was not some so-called immobilization spell, but a genuine time stop!
Titanic waves stirred in his heart, looking at Ye Yuan in immense shock.
This … How was this possible?
Time stop was an extremely profound time law. One had to at least cultivate beyond the seventh firmament before they could control the power of law.
But Ye Yuan clearly did not know time law, yet he could do it to this step.
This was also to say that Ye Yuan did not lie, he could really control this space!
Too inconceivable!
It was too fantastical!
There was actually still such a bizarre thing in this world.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Looks like you believe it. Then, you can go and die."
A hint of panic flashed across in Yang Shen's heart. He had never panicked like this before.
It was as if the being he was facing right now was really the Creator.
"H-Hang on! I … I was wrong, spare me! I promise that I absolutely won't find trouble with you in the future!" Yang Shen shouted.
Ye Yuan's gaze did not carry the slightest emotion. He just said coolly, "It's too late to admit your fault now."
Done talking, Ye Yuan pointed another finger out. Yang Shen's body disintegrated just like this, turning into nothingness.
Looking at Yang Shen's slowly disappearing figure, Ye Yuan did not have the slightest ripple.
The current Ye Yuan, his disposition was greatly different from usual.
He exuded an icy-cold aura from head to toe as if he was an ice-man without the least bit of emotion.
No idea how long had passed either, the blue filaments slowly faded away, merging into Ye Yuan's divine sea.
Plop!
Ye Yuan's entire person lost consciousness, falling onto the ring.
Of course, there was already no Yang Shen on the stage. There was only Ye Yuan alone left.
Yang Shen was already dead until he could not be any deader.
There was an uproar all round!
Before this, Yang Shen was the sole candidate to win the championship. No one had ever thought that he would get second, let alone talk about dying.
But now, he was killed by Ye Yuan silently just like this?
Especially the High Clarity Sect's elder, his one breath was pent up in his heart, virtually making him about to explode.
The High Clarity Sect that was powerful until it terrified people actually had six disciples die all at once this time. How would he report on his mission when he returned?!
Seeing that Du Rufeng was still in a daze, Little Tong reminded him and said, "Hey, you should announce the results."
"Ah? Oh, oh!" Du Rufeng was akin to waking up from a dream.
The shock that this scene brought to him was seriously too intense.
That blue filament ball that was akin to a cocoon seemed to have the ability to devour everything, directly obliterating Yang Shen until not even dregs remained.
Just how strong was this Ye Yuan?
In reality, before this, he was not very optimistic about Ye Yuan.
After all, similar a possessor of a supreme law, Yang Shen's realm was much higher than Ye Yuan's.
No one had expected that what they waited for was actually such a result.
"This battle, Ye Yuan wins, Yang Shen perishes!" Du Rufeng said in a clear voice.
The moment his voice faded, a figure dashed onto the stage like lightning, and suddenly smacked a palm toward Ye Yuan who was currently in a coma.
High Clarity Sect's elder!
At this time, his two eyes were bloodshot, already completely lost his reason.
Du Rufeng gave a cold snort and took a step out, and already arrived on the stage.
Bang!
Two mighty True God powerhouses suddenly exchanged a blow. The High Clarity Sect's elder was immediately blasted flying.
"Han Jianqing, what are you trying to do?" Du Rufeng said coldly.
Chapter 1836 - Heavenly Dao is Heartless!
Han Jianqing's eyes were bloodshot, already losing his reason.
He roared at Du Rufeng, "This brute killed six of my High Clarity Sect's top disciples! Not killing him today, how will I give an account to the sect master when I go back?"
Du Rufeng said coldly, "That's your business! As long as Ye Yuan didn't violate the temple's rules, no matter how many people he kills, it doesn't matter too!"
Fresh blood kept flowing out of the corners of Han Jianqing's mouth and he said in a cold voice, "The temple isn't fair! The moment this Ye Yuan came, you all let him stay in Upper Groove Court, based on what? If say that Ye Yuan is a disciple that the temple groomed, then why didn't you tell us beforehand? hy must you take such a path?"
Once a person lost their reason, the angle of thinking about problems became very extreme.
In Han Jianqing's view, Ye Yuan was definitely a disciple that the temple groomed in secret. However, he was deliberately instructed to participate in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave. Wasn't this nauseating people?
Du Rufeng's brows furrowed and he said in a cold voice, "Han Jianqing, keep talking nonsense and slandering the temple, you'll bear the consequences yourself!"
At this time, several figures appeared next to Du Rufeng. These were all the temple's elders. All of them were True God Realm powerhouses.
Seeing such a line-up, Han Jianqing seemed to have a basin of cold water splash down overhead.
One Du Rufeng and he was not a match already, let alone so many True God powerhouses.
"I'm … unreconciled to it!" Han Jianqing roared angrily.
Du Rufeng's expression eased up slightly and he said coolly, "The Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave's original intention was to let the disciples who enter the temple obtain more harvests and stimulate greater potential. The reason why it doesn't forbid killing is to let them let loose. But actually, situations where massacres are caused are exceedingly rare. This time, it was originally you all who initiated trouble first but want to blame others. What logic is this? Right and wrong, everyone has a weighing scale in their hearts. I believe that no need me to say anymore and everyone is also clear in their hearts!"
When everyone heard that, they secretly nodded their heads.
This matter was indeed provoked first by the High Clarity Sect. But the result now was that the arm could not twist the t.h.i.g.h, and wanted to vent their anger on Ye Yuan.
In reality, at first, everyone indeed felt bitter about the Shadowmoon Sect staying in Upper Groove Court. They had unhappiness in their hearts.
But by now, they had long already tossed this kind of thinking to the back of their minds.
Ye Yuan possessed incomparably powerful martial strength and also possessed superb alchemy skills. He indeed had the qualifications to stay in Upper Groove Court.
Moreover, they all knew that the cause of all these was the Treasure Pig.
Even though they all did not kn
ow what the Treasure Pig was, without a doubt, its origins were not ordinary.
Du Rufeng's gaze was scorching as he said, "Han Jianqing, on the account that you were rash for a moment, you're spared from death! But you insulted the temple. Death penalty can be spared, but it's hard to escape punishment. Today, you'll be expelled from the Bamboo Groove Holy Realm and return to the sect to be confined for a thousand years, not to leave the mountain! Do you submit?"
Han Jianqing's face turned ashen, and he raised his head to the sky and heaved a long sigh as he said, "Forget it, Han Jianqing accepts the punishment!"
In the Bamboo Groove Void Realm, no matter how powerful the sect, they could not contend with the temple too.
The temple was a paramount existence.
Because they had Empyrean powerhouses!
This battle ending, the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave's situation became even more complicated and confusing.
Yang Shen was already dead, he was naturally unable to become the temple's disciple.
This way, the struggle for the second camp became abnormally fierce.
While Ye Yuan also tasted his Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave loss because of the fight with Yang Shen.
This coma of his lasted ten days and nights, directly missing the next fight, and was issued with a loss.
However, even if he lost, he still firmly occupied the throne of first place.
Furthermore, everyone all knew that they were no longer able to shake Ye Yuan's position.
...
Ten days later, Ye Yuan finally slowly opened both eyes.
"You're awake!" When Baili Qingyan saw Ye Yuan wake up, she could not help being excited.
Little Tong's face also showed a rare smile and said with a faint smile, "Like I said, this kid won't die, but you guys don't believe."
Ye Yuan's eyes looked a little confused, the gaze that looked at Baili Qingyan was somewhat unfamiliar.
That unfamiliar look gave Baili Qingyan a fright.
"What? You … You don't even recognize me anymore?" Baili Qingyan's face changed and said.
But very soon, Ye Yuan's eyes recovered clarity and he said with a smile, "Ha, S-Senior Apprentice Sister Baili what, why would I not recognize? Maybe the time that I was in a coma was a little long, and there's some issues. Unleashing that martial technique is still a pretty big burden on me."
