Super Combat Soldier
Chapter 1834 - 1832: Helpless Against the Devouring God Worm
Blood Killing Organization!
Ye Tianchen’s understanding of this force wasn’t exactly shallow, but it wasn’t deep either. What he’d heard were mostly rumors. Of course, Ye Tianchen had fought quite a few powerhouses from the Blood Killing Organization before, especially the younger generation of Assassin experts. As for the Blood Killing Organization, Ye Tianchen had only one impression: anyone from this force absolutely could not be underestimated!
You had to know, ever since the Blood Killing Organization emerged in the Martial Arts World, it rose to power at a terrifying speed, in just a very short time. This was a force that not only accepted commissions from others and killed for wealth, but would also launch endless slaughter just to seize any Cultivation Resources. And this force just happened to be extremely powerful; every Assassin within cultivated Divine Skills that were all focused purely on taking lives, nothing else!
In the Martial Arts World, whether it was an ancient, long-inherited Cultivation Sect, or an Immortal Cultivation Family, none of their Martial Arts Divine Power was dedicated purely to killing. So when it came to ruthlessness, the Blood Killing Organization was absolutely out of the ordinary, once making the entire Martial Arts World turn pale at the mere mention of its name!
At this moment, what Ye Tianchen faced was a wisp of Divine Thought from an old King of Killers of the Blood Killing Organization. When this wisp of Divine Thought struck out, it unleashed a powerful killing intent that slashed toward Ye Tianchen. Ye Tianchen blocked it with Chaos Qi. The reason he used Chaos Qi right from the start had only one purpose: he did not want the slightest mishap. The Blood Killing Organization’s Killing Skill was strange and unpredictable, and since he was facing a seasoned, powerful old King of Killers, he didn’t dare show even the slightest hint of contempt!
Who could have known!
What Ye Tianchen hadn’t expected was that although the Chaos Qi had blocked the killing intent of that wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers, in the very next instant, he felt a powerful aura appear in his own mind, shaking his Divine Thought. Ye Tianchen had no choice but to immediately use Inner Vision, condensing his Divine Thought into a likeness of himself, focusing all his attention as he entered his sea of consciousness. When Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought took on his own form and stepped into his own mind, he froze. Because that wisp of Divine Thought from the Blood Killing Organization’s old King of Killers had actually entered his mind as well, radiating a terrifying killing intent, about to charge at him in an instant!
"The Blood Killing Organization’s Killing Skill really is strange and unfathomable. You want to attack me with Divine Thought!" Ye Tianchen gradually calmed down, looking at that wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers as he spoke.
"There are only two reasons to attack your Divine Thought. First, I myself am only a wisp of Divine Thought; only by using a Divine Thought attack can I unleash my greatest power. Second, your physical body is strong enough, rarely seen since ancient times, and worth being used by me!" That wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers said, looking at Ye Tianchen without the slightest concealment.
"You’re pretty straightforward," Ye Tianchen said with a smile.
"Because you are an ant. You are food in my mouth, meat on my plate, absolutely inescapable!" That wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers said with complete confidence.
Crash!
Just as that wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers finished speaking, within Ye Tianchen’s sea of consciousness, countless densely packed Rune began to appear around his Divine Thought. These Rune continuously shifted, continuously released power, and gathered toward Ye Tianchen, as if they intended to swallow his Divine Thought alive. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"You want to Refine my Divine Thought? I’m afraid it won’t be that easy!" Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought trembled, and he too channeled a surge of power, turning it into a sharp sword that slashed toward the surrounding Rune.
Bang!
Those Rune were scattered apart, but they very quickly gathered together again, continuing to swarm densely toward Ye Tianchen. The sight made Ye Tianchen pause in surprise. These Rune actually hadn’t been cut off? Why?
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The longsword condensed from Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought Power struck out four times in a row, each slash cutting toward a different direction, trying to shatter those densely gathered runes that were forcefully devouring his Divine Thought. However, the very next instant after his Divine Thought Power smashed them apart, those countless runes once again swarmed together, momentum undiminished as they attacked Ye Tianchen anew.
"What the fuck is this thing, why can’t I break it?" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but frown and mutter to himself.
"These aren’t runes, just a kind of bug that looks like runes, that’s all!" The old King of Killers from the Sha Xue organization said with a cold laugh.
"Bugs? Could they be... Devouring God Worms?" Ye Tianchen asked in shock.
"Didn’t expect you to actually have some knowledge. That’s right, these are Devouring God Worms!" The wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers of Sha Xue spoke calmly.
Ye Tianchen furrowed his brows. He had indeed seen Devouring God Worms before. He still remembered that back in the Penglai Ancient Martial World, he, the old man with the pipe, the Wudao Saint Child, the veiled woman in thin gauze, and the others, had entered the secret land of the exterminated Taishi family to search for the Taishi family’s Absolute Skill, the "Burning Sky Finger". But they had run into a massive swarm of Devouring God Worms. Those Devouring God Worms were incomparably powerful and unfathomably strange, capable of devouring everything; even the Void was pierced through by one Devouring God Worm after another. At the critical moment, if the Wudao Saint Child hadn’t unleashed a heaven-shocking secret technique to block them, that battle would probably have cost Ye Tianchen and the others their lives right there!
Now, after so many years, seeing Devouring God Worms again, Ye Tianchen was shocked but also puzzled, even somewhat unable to believe it. Because these Devouring God Worms were substantial monsters in the flesh—how could they suddenly appear inside his Divine Thought? Even if this old King of Killers from the Sha Xue organization had a secret technique to drive these Devouring God Worms, just now the old King of Killers had only released a burst of killing intent. Ye Tianchen had blocked that killing intent with Chaos Qi and hadn’t made any physical contact. So how could Devouring God Worms appear in his mind? Appear in his Divine Thought?
"How did you get these Devouring God Worms into my mind?" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help asking.
"My Sha Xue organization has countless secret techniques. You’ll never figure them out. You’d better behave and accept your death. The Devouring God Worms have already entered your mind. Your Divine Thought will be slowly eaten away, and what’s left will only be an empty shell, a walking corpse!" The old King of Killers of Sha Xue said with a cold sneer.
Ye Tianchen frowned deeply, truly feeling a great crisis. Back then in the Taishi family’s secret land, just seeing some Devouring God Worms had almost cost them their lives. And now, these Devouring God Worms had actually entered his body. What method was left to block them? Was there still any saving Ye Tianchen? Even he himself had no confidence in his heart and didn’t know what to do!
Countless!
Ye Tianchen’s mind was filled everywhere with Devouring God Worms swimming about, all heading toward his Divine Thought. It was obvious that these Devouring God Worms were being driven by that wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers, with only one goal—to devour his Divine Thought. If so, then Ye Tianchen would be completely annihilated in body and soul, turned into nothing more than a walking corpse with only an empty shell left.
In this world of Divine Thought, the only thing Ye Tianchen could use was also Divine Thought Power. He had already done his utmost, turning his Divine Thought Power into a sharp sword, slashing toward the surrounding Devouring God Worms. But the sword radiance formed by this Divine Thought Power hadn’t killed off the Devouring God Worms in the slightest. On the contrary, the Devouring God Worms kept pouncing at him, their speed extremely fast; they were about to reach Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought at any moment!
Ye Tianchen knew very well that these Devouring God Worms specialized in devouring the Divine Thought of All Living Beings. As long as his Divine Thought was touched by them, they would madly devour it. Once his Divine Thought was damaged and eaten clean, Ye Tianchen would be utterly annihilated in body and soul. That would be an extremely miserable and painful end.
"Stop struggling. It’s all futile. This is the world of Divine Thought, the world of spiritual power. Even if your spiritual power is strong, these Devouring God Worms truly exist. Your spiritual power will be devoured, and your Divine Thought will be completely eaten by them. Quietly wait for death—that way you’ll suffer a little less pain before you die!" That wisp of Divine Thought of the old King of Killers of Sha Xue said coldly.
Hearing the words of that wisp of Divine Thought from the old King of Killers, Ye Tianchen really wanted to punch this old bastard. But he couldn’t do that now. Watching these Devouring God Worms close in on his Divine Thought, knowing that in just the blink of an eye they could devour all of it—by then, even a great Luo Immortal God probably wouldn’t be able to save Ye Tianchen. At this moment, Ye Tianchen also felt that the situation was extremely thorny, not even knowing where to start. This was where Divine Thought resided, the world of spiritual power; other Martial Arts Divine Powers and even powerful Treasures couldn’t be used. What he could bring to bear was only the power of Divine Thought. Yet Divine Thought Power could only attack Divine Thought—this was common sense. If this old King of Killers of the Sha Xue organization were also using Divine Thought to battle Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought, Ye Tianchen wouldn’t be the least bit afraid. But this old guy had actually lured Devouring God Worms into Ye Tianchen’s spiritual power world, and these Devouring God Worms were real, living beings. No wonder Ye Tianchen’s powerful Divine Thought Power attacks were completely useless against them; he had fallen into a completely passive state, a state where he had strength but nowhere to exert it!
"No, these Devouring God Worms may be strong, but there must be a way to subdue them. Back then in the Taishi family’s secret land, we saw so many Devouring God Worms—how did the Wudao Saint Child, by his own strength, block that many Devouring God Worms?" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help frowning inwardly as he thought.
Suddenly, Ye Tianchen recalled something. Looking around, he saw that several Devouring God Worms had already flown to his face, about to bite into his Divine Thought. He couldn’t help clenching his fists tightly and gritting his teeth as he said:
"If I die, I die. I absolutely can’t give up. I have to at least try this method!" (To be continued.
