Super Combat Soldier-Chapter 1539 - 1538: Potential Unleashed in the Face of Life and Death (Part 1)
The battle between Ye Tianchen and Xue Yundao ultimately ended with Xue Yundao’s annihilation!
The might of Xue Yundao was undeniable by anyone, but his defeat lay in his tactics. In the contest among Martial Arts Experts, aside from absolute strength, timing, location, and strategy all play a crucial role. Xue Yundao’s primary downfall was his over-reliance on the unpredictable Divine Arts. Regardless, defeat is defeat. In the Martial Arts World, only the victor rules. Even if one uses surprise tactics to kill a formidable enemy, it is due to the enemy’s lack of vigilance and ability to defend; no one will criticize, especially when Ye Tianchen’s victory was tactical, which everyone respected and acknowledged!
What was unexpected is that Ye Tianchen was already injured from a battle with Xiao Yuan, and in this clash with Xue Yundao, he used his Martial Arts True Qi excessively, deploying two Martial Arts Divine Skills to finally kill Xue Yundao. Xue Yundao’s strength made Ye Tianchen wary. After eliminating Xue Yundao, Ye Tianchen immediately sat cross-legged where he was to begin healing his injuries!
Suddenly, the entire heaven and earth of the Ancient Dojo were enveloped in a blood-red hue, resembling an apocalypse that threatened to bathe the Human World in blood. Thunder erupted as a blood dragon, forged from blood light, descended from the sky to devour Ye Tianchen, aiming to eradicate him!
"Someone is attacking sneakily!" Little Zhu Yan couldn’t help but say anxiously.
"What a cowardly act!" Wang Luanxiang gritted his teeth and said.
"In this Martial Arts World, only the winner is king, and despicable villains are numerous!" The God Beating Bowl shook its head and said.
"Such powerful bloodlight that even the formation of the Ancient Dojo couldn’t stop it?"
"It seems someone hid in the shadows long ago to crush Ye Tianchen, and the force is mighty!"
"Considering Ye Tianchen’s current state, trying to withstand this mighty Power of Slaughter seems as hard as ascending the heavens!"
"It’s truly a pity; even after killing Xue Yundao, death seems inevitable..."
Boom!
The blood dragon aimed at Ye Tianchen’s head, opened its bloody mouth, absorbing even the power in the void after crushing it, displaying astonishing strength. At this moment, Ye Tianchen was in a healing phase. If he acted despite his injuries, it would only worsen them, potentially leaving incurable latent illnesses!
Buzz!
Suddenly, a powerful Divine Rune net appeared high in the sky to block the blood dragon, and as it blocked it, countless Divine Runes emerged, turning the blood dragon to ashes, showcasing astonishing strength, attracting everyone’s gaze to Qin Kongdao and Dian Wei sitting cross-legged on the high stage of the Ancient Dojo!
"Battle King seniors, Dian Wei seniors, didn’t you say the young generation’s contention would remain untouched? Are you trying to favor Ye Tianchen?" A young voice said arrogantly.
"The young generation’s contention will indeed remain untouched. However, trying to take advantage of his wounds is excessive!" Dian Wei said calmly.
"Taking advantage? The Martial Arts World is brutal; win and you are king, lose and you are the conquered. Regardless of how the victory is achieved, a win is a win, a loss is a loss. Is there need for such excuses?" The presence hidden in the void was extremely arrogant!
"That’s true, you may proceed!" Qin Kongdao’s voice was calm, yet full of authority.
"Battle King senior, way to be reasonable!" The arrogant voice sneered.
Upon hearing Battle King Qin Kongdao’s words, Dian Wei was stunned, and Little Zhu Yan, Wang Luanxiang, and the God Beating Bowl were also surprised. They did not expect Qin Kongdao to decide this way. Given Ye Tianchen’s current weakened state, the arrival seemed overwhelmingly strong. With Ye Tianchen already at his limit, his chances of overcoming the fierce enemy seemed slim!
"No way. Battle King senior, Ye kid is heavily injured now, still healing. How can he fight a strong enemy? He’ll lose his life!" Little Zhu Yan said, stunned.
"Yes, after two battles, Ye Tianchen’s body and the consumption of Martial Arts True Power are severely drained, extremely weak. How can he face such a fierce enemy?" The God Beating Bowl said worriedly.
"I implore Battle King senior for assistance!" Wang Luanxiang said earnestly.
Qin Kongdao shook his head and sighed, "Ye Tianchen is an anomaly, possessing a deep fortune, outstanding talent, and an indomitable spirit granting him the potential of an Emperor. However, throughout history, such individuals face a perilous path and mightily fall. Few reach the final step. His journey, his Tao, has just begun. Facing unknown life-and-death challenges, if he cannot unleash extraordinary potential against formidable foes, his path may end prematurely..."
Battle King’s words left Wang Luanxiang, Little Zhu Yan, and the God Beating Bowl astonished. Dian Wei also seemed to understand deeply. Qin Kongdao’s insight was profound—Ye Tianchen indeed was a talent worth nurturing, possessing uncommon opportunity, superior talent, and an undefeated mindset. Yet the Martial Arts World harbors myriad possibilities, countless unknowns. Across ages, countless Ye Tianchens have risen only to fall, few reaching the Martial Arts Peak. This is merely on isolationist Earth. Compared to the genuinely vast Martial Arts World, the three Ancient Martial realms scarcely count as specks. If here Ye Tianchen cannot dominate, cannot claim the strongest title of the young generation, how can he enter the boundless Martial Arts World to contend? What qualification does he have to fight?
Crash!
The divine rune formation arranged above the ancient dojo disappeared, which means Qin Kongdao and Dian Wei are no longer assisting Ye Tianchen, and the person who just made a move to attack Ye Tianchen, as if entering a no-man’s land, is set on becoming an assassin against Ye Tianchen!
Swish!
A sword light flashed, directly slashing toward the center of Ye Tianchen’s forehead, incredibly fast!
Whoa!
A blade light appeared, striking from above as if vowing to split Ye Tianchen in two, extremely fierce!
Bang!
Bang!
The shadows of swords and blades all fell on Ye Tianchen, but to everyone’s astonishment, they didn’t harm Ye Tianchen at all. With only the strength of his physical body, Ye Tianchen resisted these fierce and powerful sword and blade shadows, leaving other martial artists in disbelief—how could Ye Tianchen’s physical strength be so formidable?
Swish! Swish!
Ye Tianchen opened his eyes, two beams of divine radiance bursting forth. His entire momentum became sharp, and with his right hand, he grasped the Taie Sword, launching two slashes with lightning speed!
Puff!
Puff!
Two streams of blood spurted from the void, quickly disappearing. Ye Tianchen didn’t move an inch, once again calmly closing his eyes, sensing the fluctuations in the surrounding atmosphere. He knew these two assassins were strong, and their killing skills were terrifyingly potent; a small slip could result in a soul-shattering end.
"Isn’t... Ye Tianchen severely injured? Has he already recovered?"
"No, his injuries are still severe, yet he can display even more formidable power; it’s terrifying!"
"It seems that under such circumstances, Ye Tianchen’s physical strength has become even more robust. He’s truly a demon-like being that cannot be judged by conventional wisdom!"
"I understand now, this young Ye Tianchen must have unleashed unimaginable potential under such extreme peril. He’s even stronger than he was a moment ago, almost exhibiting an invincible stance!"
Upon hearing this, the others froze, as if what was said made perfect sense. Not to mention martial artists, even ordinary mortals can unleash unimaginable power and intellect in life-threatening situations, let alone someone called a heaven-defying demon like Ye Tianchen.
Buzz!
Another sword light slashed from the void, extremely fast, sweeping past Ye Tianchen’s back of the head, slicing even the void apart. This time, Ye Tianchen didn’t counter with brute force. He knew that the strong opponent was aware of his tremendous physical power, and that’s why powerful runes were added to this sword light. If he confronted it with sheer strength again, he might be severely injured by these runes.
Bang!
Brandishing the Taie Sword, Ye Tianchen blocked this sword light. Simultaneously, he moved with utmost speed. His left hand formed into a claw, and using only the strength of his physical body, he tore the void apart with a single grasp. At such speed, Ye Tianchen had already seized the attacker’s head, exerting a force of at least a thousand Qian Jun, forcefully dragging the person out of the void!
Thud!
Ye Tianchen held the head of a person in his left hand. This person was a young martial artist, his face looking very youthful, at most twenty years old; his eyes filled with malice, yet also full of surprise, probably not expecting Ye Tianchen to be this powerful, to split the void with his bare hands and capture him!
Bang!
This young martial artist was indeed fast and extremely vicious. Even as Ye Tianchen grasped his head with his left hand, he still launched a palm strike towards Ye Tianchen’s forehead, intending to smash Ye Tianchen’s skull into pulp... (To be continued.
