Chapter 1291: Chapter 1271: The Divine King at 26!

Over two thousand people in the arena stared at Ye Huan, who looked like a Celestial God descending to earth, their eyeballs about to explode from shock!

"Holy shit, what the hell is going on?!"

"What Ancient Martial Killing Technique did Young Master Ye just use? How can it be this freakishly strong? He was clearly trapped in a life-and-death crisis just now, but once he pulled out that trump card, he actually pulled off a direct reversal kill, sent Di Fourth down to Hell, then struck again without hesitation, and in just three seconds leapfrogged to crush Di Third, sending Di Third down to meet King Yama too?!"

"Damn, is Young Master Ye even human?"

"He’s not human, he’s a god!"

The Celestial Gods and Divine Generals from the Ancient Martial Realm in the arena all twitched fiercely at the corners of their eyes after witnessing this scene. Their voices were filled to the brim with earth-shattering shock!

Just then, someone suddenly pointed at Ye Huan and exclaimed in disbelief, "Wait, it’s not over yet. Feel carefully—is Young Master Ye’s aura still climbing?!"

"Fuck me, it really feels like it is!"

Someone shouted in alarm!

The next second, everyone in the field was stunned all over again.

"Boom!!!"

They watched Ye Huan’s aura explode in an instant, becoming even denser, even more terrifying!

On top of that, the muscle lines on his body were visibly becoming even more perfect!

At the same time, his eyes grew incomparably clear, and the faint golden glow covering the depths of his pupils and the edges of his body began to fade away.

This meant the trump card he’d just used to boost his strength—its effect had already ended!

But the aura around him had not dispersed!

"Young Master Ye advanced!"

"Initial-Tier Divine King!"

"He actually broke through to Initial-Tier Divine King in the middle of battle!"

"Holy shit!!! An Initial-Tier Divine King at twenty-six? You gotta be kidding me?!"

"Back when that old guy Di Lin, Di Shitian, broke through to Divine King, he was already thirty-five!"

"My god, did I just witness the birth of an against-the-heavens monster?!"

Now it wasn’t just the various powerhouses of the Ancient Martial Realm standing on Ye Huan’s side who were shocked; cries of amazement burst nonstop from the mouths of the Di Family people too, unable to believe what they were seeing!

Damn it, this has gotta be a joke!

A year ago, when Ye Huan took the Dragon Gate ancestor’s test in the Dragon Gate main hall, he had broken through to Half-step Divine King right under their noses.

In just a single year, he’d broken through the Half-step Divine King level that countless people fail to reach in their entire lives, and stepped into the Divine King level?!

Calling this speed of advancement "defying the heavens" doesn’t even begin to cover it!

This was simply unheard of, unprecedented and never to be repeated!

Even the heavens themselves would be green with envy at this!

Di Lunhui’s face turned even uglier; he hadn’t expected Ye Huan to break through and step into Divine King at a moment like this!

"Hahaha, good!"

"Young Master Ye, you help our juniors wipe out the Di Family people. We’ll keep dragging that old dog Di Lunhui!"

Ouyang Wuji stroked his beard and laughed heartily, exhilarated, though he felt a bit of secret embarrassment inside.

What "as long as the green hills remain, there’ll always be firewood to burn"?

Ye Huan not running just now clearly meant he wanted to use the enormous pressure of fighting above his level to push his own strength higher!

Besides, Ye Huan didn’t need to run at all!

That strength-boosting trump card Ye Huan had just used was way too fierce and heaven-defying!

Sending people to support him was completely unnecessary!

He’d misjudged the situation!

Thinking of this, Ouyang Wuji felt even more awkward. To cover up his embarrassment, he struck out quickly and launched another attack at Di Lunhui!

With Ouyang Wuji’s move, battle flames flared up again over Tingxiang Pavilion!

The various powerhouses from the Ancient Martial Realm and the Di Family all forced down their shock and horror, turning again to face off—and even to fight to the death!

"Boom!!!"

"Clang!!!"

"Argh!!!"

The sounds of smashing, explosions, screams, and wails all mixed together, rising and falling over the courtyard of Tingxiang Pavilion without pause!

Powerhouses kept falling into pools of blood, their lives snuffed out!

As time went on, the more they fought, the redder their eyes became from killing!

Ye Huan and Jiang Shishuang joined forces, the beaded curtain formation united, shuttling between the smaller battlefields. With absolute superiority in strength, they crushed and slew the Di Family’s Celestial Gods, Half-step Celestial Gods, and Divine Generals!

In no time at all, they’d given the Ancient Martial Realm powerhouses the advantage in numbers!

"Second, Huiqing, don’t hold back anymore. Show yourselves and kill for me!!" Di Lunhui’s fury was completely ignited, and he roared in rage!

Hearing this, Ouyang Wuji and the others’ faces changed drastically!

Di First—that was the Dark Guard captain who handled all sorts of shady business for Dragon Gate, answering only to the Sect Leader, a high-tier Divine King powerhouse!

Di Second—that was the Inner Guard captain in charge of maintaining Dragon Gate’s order, also answering only to the Sect Leader, another high-tier Divine King powerhouse!

Ouyang Wuji and the others had been wondering earlier why the two hadn’t appeared on the battlefield, even suspecting they might not have come to the Capital City at all.

Only now did they realize they hadn’t stayed away—they were Dragon Gate’s hidden trump card, lurking in the shadows!

At Di Lunhui’s command, seven masked old men wrapped in black robes streaked into the courtyard from all directions with lightning speed, entering the battlefield and sweeping through the Ancient Martial Realm’s Half-step Divine Kings and those below Divine King level!

Among these seven, there were two high-tier Divine Kings, three mid-tier Divine Kings, and the remaining two were Initial-Tier Divine Kings!

Once they moved, slaughtering Half-step Divine Kings and below was like chopping vegetables. In just a short while, they’d butchered over a hundred people, and the scales of victory instantly tipped toward the Di Family!

Among those slaughtered by them were quite a few direct descendants of Huashan Sect Leader Ouyang Wuji and the Five Gods of the Northern Peaks!

Seeing their grandsons and sons die and go to the Yellow Springs, their previously good mood instantly turned grim. Their eyes went blood-red, overflowing with hatred for the Di Family!

"Old dog Di Lunhui, we’ll kill you!!!" Ouyang Wuji took the lead with a furious roar, no longer holding anything back as he unleashed his own trump card killing move, blasting it toward Di Lunhui!

"I gave you a way out and you refused it! A few pieces of trash, and you really think you can hold back me, an Extreme Divine King?!"

Di Lunhui let out a cold laugh dripping with contempt and disdain. With a thunderous shout, he raised the World-Suppressing Sword, and his finger flicked along the blade with a "swish," coating the entire sword in a layer of silver-white cold light as sharp and dazzling as Ice Crystal!

This cold light made the World-Suppressing Sword look even sharper and more shocking, like a weapon from beyond this world!

Up till now, while fending off Ouyang Wuji and the others, he’d been splitting his focus to sense!

Sensing whether there were any other Extreme Divine King auras nearby!

He was worried that once he went all out, he’d be ambushed by that young woman with Extreme Divine King strength and fall into a disadvantage!

Now, all his doubts were gone!

Relying on an Extreme Divine King’s intuition, he’d swept through the entire interior of the Tingxiang Pavilion villa like a carpet search, and hadn’t found a single Extreme Divine King aura!

That meant the woman just happened not to be home!

This crusade against Ye Huan— even the heavens were helping the Di Family!

With nothing left to hold him back, Di Lunhui let out a shout, his terrifying aura bursting forth as he drew his sword and swept out a silver sword beam!

"Fall back, now!" Ouyang Wuji’s expression changed drastically. The aura of this sword beam was too strong—so strong that even he, a high-tier Divine King, had no thought of taking it head-on!

As soon as he spoke, he and the Wudang Three Heroes scattered and shot backward!

"Retreat? Too late!"

Di Lunhui let out a ferocious grin, his body turning into a stream of light as he appeared behind the Wudang Three Heroes’ leader, Zhang Sanfeng, in an instant. With a dragon’s roar exploding in everyone’s ears, his silver-white longsword pierced straight through Zhang Sanfeng’s heart!

"Shoo!"

Di Lunhui pulled the sword free, and blood erupted wildly from the gaping wound in Zhang Sanfeng’s heart!

"Thud!"

Zhang Sanfeng collapsed to the ground, his life aura vanishing. Even in death, his eyes were filled with despair!

He hadn’t even had the chance to unleash his Ancient Martial Killing Techniques or his defensive moves before he died miserably under Di Lunhui’s World-Suppressing Sword!
