4220 Yang Yu Chen’s Strength
After the two intermediate Supreme Gods surrounded Yang Yu Chen and Duan Ling Tian, Yang Yu Chen could not help but laugh. Then, he turned slightly to look at Duan Ling Tian before he said, “Junior brother, your punching bag is here. Choose one.”
Faced with two intermediate Supreme Gods, Yang Yu Chen was still calm and indifferent.
After Yang Yu Chen spoke, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes shifted to the bearded middle-aged man. Then, he said, “This one seems to be stronger so I’ll choose him.”
The young man and the middle-aged man had yet to react to Yang Yu Chen calling them punching bags, but Duan Ling Tian already began to attack the middle-aged man.
Yang Yu Chen, who was standing at the side, did not stay idle. He raised his hand, and a terrifying energy swept out toward the young man. He said in a leisurely manner, “Alright, let’s move aside and have our own fun.”
The young man’s expression changed at this moment. At this moment, he could keenly sense that Yang Yu Chen was no weaker than an advanced Supreme God despite being an intermediate Supreme God.
‘Did I run into one of those incredibly strong intermediate Supreme Gods? Is his strength really comparable to an advanced Supreme God?’
Yang Yu Chen did not hold back when he made a move. His terrifying Divine Energy contained the Mastery Dao swept toward the young man, and despite the young man’s futile resistance, it easily brought the young man away.
At the same time, a heaven-and-earth phenomenon appeared, illuminating 100,000 miles of land.
Apart from the Mastery Dao, Yang Yu Chen also cast his law. His comprehension of the law alone had far surpassed that of the young man. Coupled with the Mastery Dao, it was only natural that the young man was rendered powerless.
The young man brought his prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul out, but it was useless. It did not give him any advantage at all. Similarly, when he activated his bloodline power, it still did not give him any advantage over Yang Yu Chen.
Upon seeing the futility of his actions, panic began to seize the young man’s heart.
‘Is he really just an intermediate Supreme God?!’
It was beyond the young man’s expectations that he would suffer such an overwhelming defeat from another intermediate Supreme God. He did not have the power to fight back at all. His opponent was too strong.
Meanwhile, after Duan Ling Tian’s sudden attack, the middle-aged man’s expression changed slightly. He discovered that the advanced Emperor of Gods in front of him was no ordinary advanced Emperor of Gods. He felt a huge sense of danger from the fierce seven-colored sword ray that Duan Ling Tian launched toward him. He instinctively knew that if he did not go all out or if he were careless, he would definitely die. Nonetheless, despite the threat that Duan Ling Tian posed, he was somewhat relieved. No matter what, he was an intermediate Supreme God, and Duan Ling Tian was just an advanced Emperor of Gods.
As the middle-aged man dodged Duan Ling Tian’s attack, he turned to the side just in time to see his companion being taken away like a chick being carried away by a hawk. His companion was completely powerless to resist.
‘Who the hell he is?!’
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man felt chills running up his spine. His only thought now was to escape as quickly as he could.
‘So what if I kill this advanced Emperor of Gods? I’ll still die if I don’t run now. That intermediate Supreme God is too powerful!’
The middle-aged man’s strength was on par with the young man. If the young man was powerless against Yang Yu Chen, he knew he would also be powerless against Yang Yu Chen.
Alas, just as the middle-aged man avoided Duan Ling Tian’s attack and made a move to flee, Yang Yu Chen thwarted his plan to leave.
Yang Yu Chen’s more-than-100-meter-tall Supreme God Phantom raised its hand, and a huge surge of energy swept forward like a tsunami, blocking the middle-aged man. Then, Yang Yu Chen said expressionlessly, “If you can defeat my junior brother, I’ll spare your life. If you run, you’ll die.”
Upon hearing Yang Yu Chen’s words, the waves of despair that rose in the middle-aged man’s heart receded a little now that he saw a glimmer of hope. He no longer dared to flee and turned to attack Duan Ling Tian. His Supreme God Phantom, which was also more than 100 meters tall, appeared. When a long staff appeared in his hand, his artifact soul loomed above the long staff.
“You’re the strongest advanced Emperor of Gods I’ve ever met. Very few rudimentary Supreme Gods are your match. However, I’m an intermediate Supreme God!”
At this moment, the middle-aged man pinned all his hope of surviving on defeating Duan Ling Tian. He did dare to underestimate Duan Ling Tian at all even if Duan Ling Tian was just an advanced Emperor of Gods. Not only was Duan Ling Tian powerful, but he also did not dare to hold back when he attacked because his life depended on defeating Duan Ling Tian.
“I’m going to kill you!”
Killing intent flashed in the middle-aged man’s eyes as he activated his bloodline power. In just a moment, his blood energy permeated the entire place. He did not consider the possibility of Yang Yu Chen retaliating if he killed Duan Ling Tian. After all, in his opinion, it would be easy for someone as powerful as Yang Yu Chen to save Duan Ling Tian at the critical moment.
Faced with the intermediate Supreme God, Duan Ling Tian did not dare to let down his guard at all. Not only did he not hold back, but he also summoned his doppelganger from the law of space.
‘He’s not a native of the Profound Energy Land?!’
The middle-aged man was taken aback when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s doppelganger.
Even the young man, who could only passively watch the fight, was taken aback.
The duo did not expect that such a monstrous talent was not a native of a Realm of Gods. They were even more baffled at this moment.
‘Did a powerhouse discover this monstrous talent in the lower realm and bring him back to the Profound Energy Land when he was a child?’
The middle-aged man did not have time to mull over the matter. He quickly regained his senses and continued to attack Duan Ling Tian.
“What a good shot…”
Duan Ling Tian’s gaze turned slightly icy when faced with the middle-aged man’s aggressive and deadly attack. Following that, he and his doppelganger charged out at the same time. When a seven-colored sword appeared in his hand, a prominent divine sword appeared in his doppelganger’s hand.
The prominent divine sword belonged to a Supreme God whom Duan Ling Tian previously killed. At that time, Yang Yu Chen had quickly captured the sword’s artifact soul to prevent it from dying along with the rudimentary Supreme God. Artifact souls were generally loyal by nature, and this artifact soul was no different. However, since its master had died, it chose to surrender after being threatened and tempted by Yang Yu Chen. In the end, the artificial soul and the prominent divine sword became the weapons of Duan Ling Tian’s doppelganger, further increasing Duan Ling Tian’s strength.
Duan Ling Tian and his doppelganger charged toward the middle-aged man with a prominent divine sword with a complete artifact soul in each of their hands.
In front of the middle-aged man’s Supreme God Phantom that was more than 100 meters tall, Duan Ling Tian looked incredibly small. Just the palm of the Supreme God Phantom alone was more than enough to cover his entire person.
The middle-aged man scoffed coldly as he swung the long staff in his hand, sending out wave after wave of energy and stirring up a gust of violent wind that dispersed the clouds. The void rippled, looking as though it was going to shatter.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian tried to cast the Double Teleportation Profundity to avoid the attack.
The middle-aged man had disrupted the space before he attacked to prevent Duan Ling Tian from leaving. Although his strongest law was not the law of space, he was still able to disrupt the space.
Although the middle-aged man’s disruption of space was not strong enough to stop Duan Ling Tian from teleporting, he managed to slow down Duan Ling Tian’s speed of teleportation. As such, Duan Ling Tian could only confront him.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
In just a blink of an eye, seven-colored sword rays bloomed in the air, looking dazzling.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The long staff was like a behemoth. Each time it fell, a terrible and deafening soundwave would sweep out. Fortunately, no one was watching in the vicinity. Otherwise, even ordinary Emperors of Gods would have been affected and hurt by the soundwaves.
Yang Yu Chen and the bound young man watched as Duan Ling Tian attacked without holding back. His strength was almost par with an intermediate Supreme God.
The corners of Yang Yu Chen’s lip curled up when he saw this scene.
On the contrary, the young man’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief even if Duan Ling Tian was at a slight disadvantage at this moment.
‘That advanced Supreme God can hold his ground against an intermediate Supreme God?!’
The young man naturally knew that the middle-aged man was not a new intermediate Supreme God who had yet to stabilize his cultivation base. He was average among intermediate Supreme Gods, but he was not weak. However, he only gained a slight advantage after exchanging dozens of moves with an advanced Emperor of Gods.
I didn’t know that such a monstrous talent exists in the Profound Energy Land!’
The young man felt a tingling sensation on his scalp as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. In the past, he did not think that such a terrifying existence existed in the world. In his opinion, even the powerful Yang Yu Chen, who easily bound him, might not be a match for Duan Ling Tian once Duan Ling Tian became an intermediate Supreme God. In fact, even before Duan Ling Tian stabilized his cultivation base in the realm of an intermediate Supreme God, Duan Ling Tian should already be stronger than Yang Yu Chen.
‘He’s even more terrifying than this intermediate Supreme God! The intermediate Supreme God addressed him as ‘junior brother’ earlier. Are they fellow disciples? What kind of master would have such terrifying disciples?!’
The young man was filled with remorse at this moment. If he had known the duo was so terrifying, he would have run as far as he possibly could as soon as he spotted them. To think that he took the initiative to send himself over to become a punching bag.
At the same time, beads of sweat appeared on Duan Ling Tian’s forehead.
‘I’m not as strong as him…’
The middle-aged man was powerful enough that Duan Ling Tian could not keep up even with 99 Heavenly Veins. It was not surprising since the gap between their cultivation bases was too wide. The Divine Energy of an intermediate Supreme God was not only powerful, but it was also much more durable. He was just an advanced Emperor of Gods, after all, no matter how heaven-defying his talent was.
After exchanging another dozen moves, Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly. ‘I don’t think I’ll be able to survive 100 moves from him…’
At this time, the middle-aged man’s eyes grew brighter and brighter now that he was on the cusp of defeating Duan Ling Tian. Once he succeeded, he would be able to leave.
Suddenly…
“No!!!”
A shrill scream echoed in the air.
Following that, a tall figure appeared in the sky. The phenomenon let out an unwilling cry before it fell to the ground.
After Yang Yu Chen killed the young man he had been restraining, he flew toward the middle-aged man.
“No!” the middle-aged man cried out as his expression changed drastically, “You can’t go back on your words! You promised to let me go as long as I can defeat your junior brother!”
Yang Yu Chen said indifferently, “I’m not going back on my words. You’ve yet to defeat my junior brother until now. How am I going back on my words if I kill you now?”
