"Ye Yuan, you mustn't!" Leng Qiuling's face changed and she urged.
She knew that Ye Yuan's strength was powerful, but this sword formation, even Ji Kang did not dare to go and challenge the seventh level too. It was too terrifying.
Ye Yuan's willful challenge would get him killed.
Xu Xing laughed loudly when he heard that and said, "Alright then, I'll go and challenge it first! At that time, don't get scared until you wet your pants! Hahaha …"
A wave of hooting also came from all around, very disapproving of Ye Yuan's 'willful' provocation.
Hearing Ye Yuan's laughable challenge, Xu Xing was overjoyed in his heart.
This time, he was finally going to make Ye Yuan lose all face in front of Leng Qiuling.
Xu Xing was not perfunctory either, leaping and entering inside the Heaven Killing Sword Formation.
Upon entering the sword formation, countless sword lights came head-on.
Xu Xing's strength was formidable, lifting something heavy as if it were light, blocking it easily.
"Brother Xu's strength is truly astonishing like a celestial's!"
"His Sword Dao law fused with lightning and fire, two great laws. Now, he refined the White Tiger true blood too, his current strength is too terrifying."
"The first three rounds shouldn't have any suspense anymore. As long as he clears the third round, Ye Yuan will have to clear until the sixth round! Heh, that kid will likely really be scared until he wet his pants."
...
The power of the Heaven Killing Sword Formation was set according to the martial artist's overall strength, becoming stronger when encountering someone strong, becoming weaker when encountering someone weak.
Xu Xing's comprehension of laws was indeed formidable. He cleared the first three rounds very quickly.
When the transmission array appeared, that voice sounded out once more.
"I choose to continue!" Xu Xing immediately said without the least bit of hesitation.
Exceeding everyone's expectations, Xu Xing actually chose to continue challenging the formation!
The grand array that fell silent lit up once again.
The terrifying sword light suddenly leveled up, Xu Xing's aura also skyrocketed along with it.
Chapter 1870 - Standing Firm
"Tsk tsk, Xu Xing is forcing Ye Yuan to the death here!"
"Can this guy clear the sixth round?"
"Since he dared to do so, he likely has some confidence! Fusing three kinds of law powers, plus the White Tiger bloodline, his strength is already unimaginable."
...
Xu Xing's crazy action caused a huge uproar.
Ever since Fan Ming, no Celestial Deity Realm martial artists dared to challenge the fourth round at all.
Only by clearing the third and sixth round would a transmission array appear.
If one could not clear it, then there was only the outcome of waiting for death.
Quite a few people cast amused looks toward Ye Yuan. If Xu Xing really made it through the sixth round, then it would be fun for them to see Ye Yuan going through the challenges.
Reckon that he would really wet his pants.
Xu Xing did not disappoint everyone. Although it was rather strained, he still successfully cleared the fourth round.
In the fifth round, the White Tiger bloodline power in Xu Xing's body suddenly erupted, making it through.
Everyone was stunned, including those True God powerhouses. Each and every one of them became somewhat ashamed of their inadequacy.
A Celestial Deity Realm martial artist actually made it to the sixth round!
While they, these True God powerhouses, actually did not even dare to challenge the round.
The so-called proud son of heaven was roughly like this.
In the level six sword formation, the power was tremendous. Xu Xing who was amidst sword lights was far from as composed as before, with the injuries on his body also increasing.
Xu Xing's sword intent crisscrossed, three kinds of law powers utilized to the limit. The White Tiger bloodline power was similarly urged to the limit.
Even so, Xu Xing was also perilously close to death, brushing past the death god many times.
Everyone's hearts leaped to their throats, not knowing if he could clear this round or not.
Suddenly, the sword formation abruptly stopped. The transmission array appeared.
Xu Xing succeeded in clearing this round!
All of the powerhouses drew a cold breath. The peak Sixth Firmament Celestial Deity Xu Xing actually cleared the sixth round!
This was absolutely an incomparably proud battle achievement!
The current Xu Xing was riddled with injuries. But his image became incomparably tall and big in everyone's eyes.
This was a young man whose prospects were boundless!
Dragging his all scratched up body, Xu Xing moved over toward the transmission array.
Before entering the transmission array, Xu Xing even turned around and looked in Ye Yuan's direction, giving a profound look.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Everyone's gazes looked toward Ye Yuan in unison.
This trumpet was blown too loudly!
According to Ye Yuan's statement, he must now complete the level nine sword formation before he could continue exploring the mystic realm.
But the level nine sword formation, was this possible?
Lord Ji Kang was a Ninth Firmament True God powerhouse. He did not dare to challenge the level seven sword formation too.
The power of the ninth level, no one dared to try at all.
That was a taboo existence!
"Young Master Ye, it's your turn now! Just now, you made the boast. Now, are you going up or tucking your tail between your legs and getting lost?" The one who spoke was Nine Fire Imperial Capital's genius disciple called Qi Heng.
Ye Yuan had an impression of this person. This person had been constantly s.u.c.k.i.n.g up to Xu Xing.
But saying this to him at this time, no one felt that there was anything inappropriate.
After all, in everyone's eyes, Ye Yuan was the braggart who blew his own trumpet too loudly.
No one thought that he would enter the sword formation, because Ye Yuan definitely would not treat his life as a joke.
"Where did this dog come from, anyhow barking here?" Ye Yuan did not even look at Qi Heng as he said.
Qi Heng's expression changed and he said angrily, "Want to say dog, you're the dog, right?! Aren't you wretched like a stray cur right now?"
Ye Yuan laughed the moment he heard and said, "Your master merely cleared the sixth level sword formation, look how you're showing off. Since you want to lick his smelly boots so much, why don't you dare to go challenge the sword formation yourself?"
Everyone looked at Ye Yuan with mocking looks. Already at this point, his mouth was still unrelenting.
Merely cleared the sixth level sword formation?
Right now, the ones who cleared the sixth level sword formation, one was the Ninth Firmament True God Ji Kang, the other was the Sixth Firmament Celestial Deity Xu Xing.
Holding in contempt, it was also not your turn to look down on!
Qi Heng sneered and said, "Razor-tongued! Since you don't dare to go challenge the sword formation, why haven't you quickly scrammed yet? Making a spectacle of yourself here, your face is really thick!"
"Yeah, really shameless! No matter what, Xu Xing already cleared the sixth level sword formation, what about you?"
"Hurry up and get lost, don't be an eyesore here! You'll only make people look down on you more like this."
The moment Qi Heng spoke, quite a number of people concurred.
No one thought that Ye Yuan dared to enter the sword formation, which was no different from courting death.
"When did I say that I'm not entering the sword formation?" Ye Yuan said with a guileless look.
Everyone was taken aback for a while and did not come back to their sense
s yet. It was only to see Ye Yuan pat Qi Heng's shoulder and say nonchalantly, "Open your eyes wide and take a look at how weak your master is!"
Finished saying, Ye Yuan leaped and landed right in the sword formation.
This scene reversed too quickly, everyone did not react to it and Ye Yuan already went in.
After Xu Xing successfully cleared the rounds, everyone's preconceived notion was that Ye Yuan did not dare to enter the sword formation anymore.
But Ye Yuan went in, catching them by surprise.
Leng Qiuling also did not react to it. It was already too late to want to stop it and she could not help having a worried look.
When Qi Heng saw the situation, he said with a cold smile, "Heh, this guy couldn't stand being provoked and indeed went in to seek his doom!"
Upon entering the sword formation, countless sword light came from all directions.
Ye Yuan stood with his hands behind his back and completely did not have any intention of defending.
Everyone was dumbfounded, entered the sword formation already and this guy actually still wanted to act cool!
However, they did not have time to mock yet when their expressions immediately turned stiff.
Those dense sword lights, not one actually landed on Ye Yuan's body.
Too relaxed!
Too effortless!
Just like this, Ye Yuan passed the first level sword formation without even moving a finger.
"This … This is also too fake, right?" Qi Heng said with a look of astonishment.
"Spatial law is a supreme law. It's not at all surprising for him to be able to do it to this step. But the power of the sword formation at the back gets stronger and stronger. Wanting to use this kind of opportunistic method to pass the round is impossible! I reckon that next round, he'll have to take action," Ji Xun said with a sullen look.
When everyone heard that, they all came to a realization.
But right at this time, the second level sword formation also started activating!
Ye Yuan stood firm!
Those sword lights still could not touch the corners of Ye Yuan's sleeves!
Ji Xun's face immediately turned stiff there.
His face was slapped resoundingly!
"Third round, he'll definitely make a move in the third round!" Ji Xun gritted his teeth and said.
The second round did not have any suspense, Ye Yuan cleared it easily.
Third round, Ye Yuan still did not move!
"Hahaha!"
Everyone looked at Ji Xun with peculiar faces, laughing wildly without ceasing.
Ji Xun's face practically turned black like the bottom of a wok.
He could not understand why Ye Yuan could be as steady as Mount Tai in the midst of such berserk sword lights!
While the rest were laughing, the shock in their hearts was not any bit less.
Were the first three rounds strong or not?
So many dead people were lying there!
Quite a number among them were even high-level Celestial Deity Realm powerhouses.
But Ye Yuan, he was just a Third Firmament Celestial Deity.
Even if he comprehended spatial law, on what basis did he not even have to move a finger?
These first three rounds were cleared too trivially, right?
Chapter 1871 - The Terrifying Last Three Levels Sword Formation
"Continue!"
Ye Yuan did not hesitate in the slightest, choosing to continue challenging.
To others, this Heaven Killing Sword Formation was a life-snatching-like existence.
But to Ye Yuan, this was not considered anything.
Him being able to easily pass the rounds did not rely on spatial law either.
Arriving in the Immortal Grove World was like arriving at home. As long as he released Immortal Grove Heavenly Dao's aura, it was impossible for this sword formation to attack him.
The Heaven Killing Sword Formation was like this, when plucking the Vermilion Bird true blood, it was also like this.
Ye Yuan possessed the Soul Suppressing Pearl and World Suppressing Stele, two lifeblood spirit treasures. How could the traps Heavenly Empyrean Immortal Grove laid down possibly cause harm to him?
In the fourth level sword formation, the power suddenly increased.
This time, Ye Yuan finally took action.
It was only to see his fingertip move lightly. Those streaks of sword light were pushed aside effortlessly.
Those horrifying sword lights could not get close to him at all.
"So strong! Ye Yuan cleared the fourth round much more leisurely than Xu Xing!"
"Xu Xing fused three powers of law, and there's also the augmentation of the White Tiger true blood to be able to do it to this extent. Ye Yuan he … based on what?"
Everyone looked at Ye Yuan's casual state, each and everyone extremely alarmed and scared.
The current Ye Yuan did not employ the power of Heavenly Dao.
Xu Xing fused three kinds of law powers. It looked very strong, but comprehending three kinds of law powers similarly made his comprehension speed become very slow.
Although Xu Xing's strength far surpassed powerhouses of the same rank after fusion, if he wanted to do it like Ye Yuan, leaping over two or three minor realms to fight the enemy, that was impossible.
And Ye Yuan's Sword Dao law was already comprehended to middle-stage fifth firmament. His spatial law was even comprehended to the terrifying peak initial-stage fourth firmament.
After fusion, his combat strength was extremely formidable.
This Heaven Killing Sword Formation did an overall evaluation. To the Third Firmament Celestial Deity Ye Yuan, it was not considered very hard for him to clear the fourth round.
Following that was the fifth round, sixth round, Ye Yuan similarly made it through.
When the transmission array appeared, everyone held their breaths.
Would he choose to continue challenging?
"You can choose to leave now and can also choose to carry on with the challenge!" That voice sounded out once more.
At the far end of the grand array, the Xu Xing who originally already obtained a true god mystic treasure was very pleased with himself.
But now, his expression was very ugly.
He stared fixedly at Ye Yuan, hoping that he would choose to continue.
Because he was certain that it was impossible for Ye Yuan to clear the three rounds at the back.
The last three rounds, no one had seen it before, no one dared to go and attempt as well!
"Continue!" Ye Yuan said very calmly.
Everyone's minds trembled, no one could have expected that Ye Yuan really dared to continue challenging.
In order to spite Xu Xing, he did not even want his life anymore?
One could tell and when Ye Yuan cleared the sixth round, although it was not as miserable as Xu Xing, it was also quite laborious for him.
The three rounds at the back, the possibility that he could make it through was virtually zero!
The seventh level difficulty did not activate immediately.
A destructive aura gradually crept out in the space.
Puu, puu, puu …
The few martial artists standing closer were actually blown apart from this terrifying aura!
The countenance of the group of powerhouses suddenly changed, hurriedly retreating.
This seventh level sword formation's power was actually so horrifying. A hint of aura that randomly effused out blew Celestial Deity Realm powerhouses up.
Then the Ye Yuan in the eye of the storm, his pressure could be imagined.
Everyone's gaze was focused on Ye Yuan.
"This … Someone is going to die! Ye Yuan overestimated his ability too much!"
"This is the might of an Empyrean? That boy is dead for sure!"
"The seventh level is already so horrifying, what will the ninth level sword formation look like?"
...
The expression on everyone's fa
ce was extremely ugly. The power of this seventh level sword formation made them understand what was called awe!
This destructive power let them witness the power of Heavenly Empyrean Immortal Grove.
Right at this time, the seventh level sword formation activated!
Countless sword light directly engulfed Ye Yuan.
The powerhouses outside the array formation could not see Ye Yuan's figure at all.
"Hahaha … idiot, see if you still don't die this time!" When Xu Xing saw this scene, he laughed wildly without ceasing.
A hint of relief actually flashed across Ji Kang's face.
He was rejoicing, rejoicing that he did not go and challenge the seventh level difficulty!
Ji Kang weighed it over, if he challenged the seventh level sword formation, he would definitely die!
Time slowly trickled by. Gradually, the sword lights receded.
Everyone's pupils shrunk, looking at that figure inside the sword formation in disbelief.
"This … This is impossible! Such terrifying power, how can he possibly survive?" Xu Xing's eyes were full of disbelief.
He completely never thought that he could see Ye Yuan. Under such horrifying sword lights, Ye Yuan would not be able to leave behind even a corpse.
But now, Ye Yuan was standing there perfectly fine.
It was just that there were many more wounds on his body.
Ye Yuan stood there without moving, both eyes tightly shut.
On the Frostcounter Sword, there was fresh blood dripping from the tip of the sword non-stop.
Ye Yuan's state was clearly not very good, but his heaving c.h.e.s.t told everyone that he was fine.
"How is this possible? He actually made it through the seventh level, it doesn't make sense!"
"Could it be that his talent is even greater than Xu Xing's?"
"But … even Lord Ji Kang didn't have the confidence to challenge the seventh level sword formation!"
...
A series of exclamations sounded out everywhere. Ye Yuan's performance seriously exceeded their expectations too much.
Originally thought that Ye Yuan was just a Third Firmament Celestial Deity, reputation undeserved, unable to even pass the first three levels if he entered the sword formation.
