Chapter 732: Chapter 731: After the Great Battle

Venerable Yin Mountain re-emerges into the world!

As countless cultivators departed, the news of the battle within the Withered Forest spread like lightning, instantly reaching every corner. For a time, many were deeply shocked, almost unable to believe it!

This is the Fierce God who dominated the Kunlun Realm centuries ago, with countless souls claimed by his blade, and numerous unparalleled geniuses buried at his hands!

Such a Fierce God did not die but hid in the Withered Forest, waiting for the opportunity to seize a body and be reborn.

Everyone can imagine.

If Venerable Yin Mountain truly succeeds, the Kunlun Realm would plunge back into the terror of centuries past, with countless people destined to perish at his hands again!

Yet now, the remnant soul of this Fierce God has died in a duel, and the one who killed him was a mere young man. Such an outcome was truly shocking!

For a moment.

Everyone remembered one name deeply:

Ye Qingchen!

"Who is this Ye Qingchen?"

Countless people inquired.

"Venerable Yin Mountain, with just a shred of his remnant soul, made hundreds of Human Immortals bow their heads. Can anyone really kill him? Could Ye Qingchen be an ancient monster?"

Some speculated.

The Kunlun Realm is unimaginably vast.

Sects and aristocratic families flourish.

Even though the chance of advancing to Human Immortal is extremely rare, merely one in ten thousand, the sheer scale of the population makes the number frightening. Moreover, some Human Immortals live in isolation, their reputations unknown to outsiders.

No matter how strong Venerable Yin Mountain’s strength is, he is just a remnant soul’s Yin Spirit. If he encounters one of those ancient Human Immortals, he would be powerless to change his fate.

Thus, such speculation seemed natural.

Well-informed individuals sneered:

"What ancient monster, he is merely a disciple of Taotian Palace. It is said he is a youth who emerged from the Barbaric Continent. Within the Withered Forest, he first wiped out the Ten Thousand Gods Sect, and then executed Venerable Yin Mountain."

"Moreover, when he killed Venerable Yin Mountain, he was only at the Human Immortal Second Layer!"

"What?"

For a moment.

The world was astir. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Taotian Palace! Void Peak!

A young man sat cross-legged, his aura rising significantly. Around him, vast amounts of Spiritual Qi formed a huge cloud cover, enveloping an area of dozens of miles.

Lin Tianlai, Tang Lifei, Lu Yanwu, and other disciples observed from the side.

"Tuoba Ye’s entry into Human Immortal this time is already sure to succeed!"

Lin Tianlai smiled faintly.

"Indeed, among the disciples from the same batch, Wu Xingyun and Tuoba Ye almost simultaneously entered Human Immortal. Such talents are truly worthy of being chosen by the Supreme Elder!"

Tang Lifei also nodded slightly beside him.

It is known.

Entering the Human Immortal stage is extremely difficult; without guidance, one might not break through even in a lifetime. Although they are Seven Peaks disciples, they cannot compare to talents like Tuoba Ye and Wu Xingyun, who continually receive guidance from Marquis Guangjun.

Thus, upon learning that the other party is about to break through, they specifically came to observe. This would hopefully lessen their hurdles during their own breakthroughs.

"I wonder how Mr. Ye is faring!"

Lu Yanwu worried quietly.

Originally.

He wished to follow Ye Qingchen this time for the task at the Withered Forest, but she was stuck at Celestial Venerable Ninth Layer, even lacking the qualification to enter the Withered Forest.

"It’s merely a simple search task, why has it dragged on for two months..."

As Lu Yanwu pondered.

Suddenly.

A powerful aura surged ahead. Its grandeur was heaven-shocking, reaching the skies, tearing apart the floating clouds above Void Peak, and boiling the countless Spiritual Qi.

"Above all, only I am supreme! Today, I have entered Human Immortal!"

With a booming sound.

A terrifying blade aura wildly swept through, and a figure emerged, stepping on the blade aura.

The newcomer was none other than Tuoba Ye.

Seeing Tuoba Ye emerge, the observing disciples all gathered around. Lin Tianlai stepped forward, cupping his hands, and congratulated, "Congratulations, Senior Brother Tuoba Ye, on proving as a Human Immortal! Now, Senior Brother Tuoba Ye has become the foremost among our peers!"

"Still lacking!" Tuoba Ye said expressionlessly, "Wu Xingyun entered Human Immortal three days earlier, and then there’s Ye Qingchen... I yet wonder how he is!"

"Wu Xingyun is nothing to worry about, Senior Brother Tuoba Ye will soon surpass him. As for Ye Qingchen, he is even less worth mentioning. He’s been sent to carry out a task at the Withered Forest and hasn’t returned yet!" Lin Tianlai sneered.

Others nodded repeatedly.

"Yes! Yes, even if Ye Qingchen is formidable, what use is it if he hasn’t reached Human Immortal?"

"Indeed, if not for Su Moran having him in Heaven-Shocking Peak, he wouldn’t even have the qualification to be in the same sect with us, let alone be mentioned alongside you!"

Many disciples flattered repeatedly.

Even beside them, Lu Yanwu lowered her head and stayed quiet.

It is known.

To reach the Human Immortal Realm, talent and fortune are indispensable. If talent is lacking, the chance of proving as a Human Immortal is minuscule.

"Haha!"

Tuoba Ye heard the remarks, showing a trace of smugness.

He had entered Human Immortal.

While Ye Qingchen was still roaming in Celestial Venerable Ninth Layer.

In time, the gap between the two would only widen.

"Ye Qingchen, what of your momentary triumph? Ultimately, you’ll be trampled beneath my feet!" Just as this thought emerged, the Communication Token in his arms suddenly sounded.

Tuoba Ye took up the Communication Token, listened, then his complexion changed drastically. Before finishing, the token had already slipped from his hand, breaking onto the ground with a ’clang’.

"What happened?"

Seeing Tuoba Ye’s expression turn ominous, Lin Tianlai quickly asked.

Tuoba Ye’s expression shifted, finally letting out a long sigh, saying, "Ye Qingchen within the Withered Forest has already reached Human Immortal Second Layer!"

"Human Immortal Second Layer?" Lin Tianlai and the others were shocked, yet immediately a hint of doubt arose in their minds. Even such news shouldn’t make Tuoba Ye so distressed, could there be other reasons?

As they speculated, they heard Tuoba Ye continue, "Ye Qingchen, in front of hundreds of Human Immortals, first eradicated the Ten Thousand Gods Sect, then killed Venerable Yin Mountain. By himself, he quelled all sides."

When the words fell, the surroundings were in commotion.

This news not only spread among Tuoba Ye’s group but almost completely permeated through Taotian Palace:

"Have you heard? Ye Qingchen went to the Withered Forest!"

"Are you talking about Ye Qingchen who stormed the inner gate and killed Zhang Nanxuan? He went to the Withered Forest, what’s that to me? No matter how arrogant he is, he might never reach Human Immortal, and he wouldn’t dare to cause trouble here at the Seven Peaks!"

"You are mistaken, Ye Qingchen has already reached Human Immortal Second Layer, flattened the Ten Thousand Gods Sect in the Withered Forest, and killed Venerable Yin Mountain!"

"How is that possible?"

For a moment.

The name Ye Qingchen already resonated, shaking Taotian Palace!
