The Fifth Elder of Celestial Flame Peak initially thought that hiding in the sky would render Ye Chen powerless against him.
After all, Ye Chen merely had a strong physique and couldn't fly.
However, what surprised him was Ye Chen's astounding jumping ability; even hiding a hundred feet up in the air was futile.
Swoosh.
At this moment, Ye Chen's body was akin to a swiftly flying meteor, causing the air to explode in its wake, emitting piercing sounds as it broke through.
In an instant, Ye Chen arrived several dozen feet away from the Fifth Elder.
Although Celestial Spirits surrounded the Fifth Elder, they were utterly ineffective against Ye Chen, instantly dissipated by Ye Chen's physical power.
"Bloodline Power, activate for me." The Fifth Elder's face became ghastly pale, instinctively unleashing his bloodline.
Roar.
Next, behind him appeared a massive porcupine covered in sharp silver spines, encasing the Fifth Elder like an impregnable fortress.
Crackle.
Immediately, the Fifth Elder crazily infused his Celestial Spirits into the porcupine, controlling its massive body to fiercely attack Ye Chen.
The power of this strike was terrifying, reaching around seven thousand tigers.
After all, the Fifth Elder's cultivation had stepped into the eighth layer of the Celestial Spirit Realm, and solely the Celestial Spirits could unleash the power equivalent to five thousand tigers.
Combining this with his bloodline secret technique, possessing around seven thousand tigers of combat power seemed perfectly normal.
"An ant trying to stop a cart, get down!" Just then, a cold smile flashed across Ye Chen's lips, and his right leg suddenly emitted a dark cyan light, spinning rapidly as if transforming into a tornado.
"Could this be the Transformation Realm of 'Celestial Wind Leg Technique'? No, that's impossible! How has he mastered a Yellow Level Top Grade Martial Arts?" The Fifth Elder's eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
'Celestial Wind Leg Technique' was one of the fifteen Yellow Level Top Grade Martial Arts of War King Hall, mastered by Ye Chen months ago.
Until now, it was his first time using it against an opponent.
Boom.
In a flash, Ye Chen's right leg fiercely collided with the silver porcupine, producing deafening explosions, creating a spectacle of white airwaves within hundreds of feet.
Ah!
Next, the Fifth Elder's anguished screams echoed out, chilling to the bone.
With just one strike, Ye Chen shattered the porcupine's spines without any resistance.
Remember, Ye Chen's physique could already unleash six thousand tiger strength, and his cultivation had risen to the Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm, enhancing the power of his martial arts.
Thus, Ye Chen's kick now exceeded the power of eight thousand tigers, reaching over nine thousand tiger strength, far beyond what the Fifth Elder could withstand.
With a loud boom.
In the sky, the Fifth Elder's body fell like a meteor, crashing to the ground with a speed that caused the earth to tremble, resembling an earthquake.
Then, everyone saw a deep pit dozens of feet wide, with the Fifth Elder lying inside, emitting constant wails of agony.
If not for his Bloodline Dharma Aspect's exceptional defense, he would surely be dead by now.
Even then, his bones were shattered, completely incapacitating him.
"No! Fifth Elder."
"In just over a month, how has this failure become so powerful? We can't possibly defeat him now." The other elders of Celestial Flame Peak stood paralyzed with horror, staring at Ye Chen as if looking at a monster.
"Escape, quickly escape." Some Elders immediately activated their Celestial Spirits, fleeing towards the mountain top of Celestial Flame Peak without hesitation.
They were utterly frightened by Ye Chen's strength.
"Not being able to fly in the air is troublesome!" Ye Chen frowned, sighing inwardly.
His jumping ability was incredible, but if the elders of Celestial Flame Peak decided to flee, it would be challenging to catch up.
This was the downside of not being able to fly.
"Ye Chen, you lawless brat, our Peak Master will never let you go, you're finished."
"Even though your cultivation has reached the Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm, in front of our Peak Master, you're no better than an ant. This time, no one can save you." Some elders of Celestial Flame Academy shouted at Ye Chen while fleeing.
"Noisy." Ye Chen snorted coldly, leaping into the air once more, leaving a massive crater on the ground beneath his feet as he lunged toward another elder.
"No!" That elder was instantly terrified out of his wits, his eyes filled with intense fear.
At this moment, he regretted it to the extreme.
He originally thought that if they chose to run away, Ye Chen would absolutely not be able to catch up with them.
But he hadn't expected that Ye Chen's speed would completely surpass his imagination.
If he had known this, he would not have spoken harshly to Ye Chen just now.
Unfortunately, even if he regretted it now, it was already too late.
Ye Chen's body quickly reached that elder, once again using the "Celestial Wind Leg Technique," kicking toward the elder like a tornado.
Ah!
A shrill scream instantly echoed in the sky.
That elder's fate was exactly the same as the Fifth Elder; he was kicked down from high altitude by Ye Chen, creating a massive crater in the ground and completely losing his combat ability.
"If I hadn't held back, you two would be dead by now." Ye Chen landed in front of the Fifth Elder, speaking to him coldly.
"Ye Chen, aren't you afraid of angering our Peak Master with your actions? A worthless person like you can't possibly understand how powerful our Peak Master is. Crushing you would be no different from crushing an ant." The Fifth Elder glared at Ye Chen viciously, his eyes filled with deep humiliation.
For him, the dignified Fifth Elder of Celestial Flame Peak, to be defeated by a worthless person who couldn't even awaken his bloodline was an utter disgrace.
So at this moment, he really hoped the Celestial Flame Peak Master would act to suppress Ye Chen, to make this ignorant fool understand what reverence means.
"Is that so? Then today, I'll see for myself the strength of your Peak Master." Ye Chen sneered coldly, showing no trace of fear in his eyes.
He naturally knew that the Celestial Flame Peak Master's strength was incredibly powerful, otherwise, he wouldn't be the strongest in the Celestial Flame Dynasty.
However, this didn't mean that the Peak Master could casually take their War King Hall's quota.
Today, he wanted to show everyone that the things that belonged to their War King Hall were not to be taken by anyone.
Otherwise, people might really think that their War King Hall is an easy target to bully!
If the Celestial Flame Peak Master truly pushed Ye Chen to the edge, he might just unleash his true strength and have a showdown with the Peak Master.
After all, he had already condensed the other six Dragon Elephant Divine Patterns, and his combat power and physical defense had greatly improved, making him fearless of the Peak Master.
"A fool who overestimates himself, daring to speak such arrogant words, you'll surely regret it when you meet our Peak Master." The Fifth Elder's lips curled with mocking disdain, looking at Ye Chen as if watching a clown.
He admitted that Ye Chen's strength was indeed formidable.
Among all the elders of Celestial Flame Peak, very few could defeat Ye Chen.
However, the strength of the Peak Master was simply beyond the imagination of someone as worthless as Ye Chen.
For him to challenge the Peak Master was nothing short of seeking death.
"Teacher Ouyang, you all should head back first, let me handle this matter personally." Ye Chen ignored the Fifth Elder and spoke to Ouyang Xue.
"Ye Chen, how about we go back? The strength of the Celestial Flame Peak Master is something even my father fears greatly. I'm really worried he will act to suppress you." Ouyang Xue's brows knitted in deep concern.
"Trust me, I'll be fine." Ye Chen said with a faint smile.
"Ye Chen, please be careful." Ouyang Xue knew she couldn't persuade Ye Chen and could only sigh helplessly.
Whoosh.
Soon, Ouyang Wu urged the Celestial Spirits, taking Ouyang Xue and flying toward the War King Hall.
They all knew that staying by Ye Chen's side would only be a burden to him, so they had no choice but to leave.
"Old man, can you take me to your Peak Master now?" Ye Chen lifted the Fifth Elder's body with one hand, as if holding a chick, speaking to him coldly.
Whoosh.
The next moment, regardless of whether the Fifth Elder was willing, he left an afterimage in place and dashed towards the summit of Celestial Flame Peak.
"Peak Master, Peak Master, something terrible has happened. That little brat Ye Chen severely injured the Fifth Elder and is now coming towards us." At this moment, an elder of Celestial Flame Peak hurriedly flew into a grand hall at the mountain summit, reporting to the Peak Master with a grim expression.
"What? How dare he do such a thing, who gave him the courage?" The Celestial Flame Peak Master's body trembled violently, his expression turning extremely gloomy, and terrifying anger erupted from his eyes, making people shiver involuntarily.
