"Dodged, Zhang Liao's archery was actually dodged by Ye Chen."

"Heavens! How can his physical power be so strong, far exceeding the Power of Six Thousand Tigers? How can such a freak exist in this world?" In the Ancient Forest, the few young cultivators watching stood frozen in place, looking as if they had seen a ghost.

They initially thought that Ye Chen's physical power was only the Power of Six Thousand Tigers.

But they hadn't expected that he could unleash a full Power of Nine Thousand Tigers.

This was truly unbelievable.

It's known that even Huang Hu, the student with the strongest Body Refining Talent from Red Flame Academy, only has around the Power of Five Thousand Tigers.

Yet Ye Chen's physical power is nearly twice that of Huang Hu's.

Even if one were to tell others, few would dare to believe it.

With a loud 'pfft'.

In a flash, Ye Chen's fist struck Zhang Liao's chest, directly shattering his heart into pieces.

"No!" Before dying, Zhang Liao's eyes widened in shock, filled with overwhelming fear and despair.

He never imagined that he would die at the hands of a so-called waste who couldn't even awaken his bloodline.

This left him unable to rest in peace.

"Self-inflicted, unavoidable death." Ye Chen's expression remained calm, as if he had merely crushed an insignificant ant.

Zhang Liao dared to ambush him, and did so mercilessly.

If not for his quick reactions, he might not have survived or at least been severely injured.

Therefore, there was no reason for Ye Chen to show mercy towards Zhang Liao.

Sizzling noises.

The next moment, Ye Chen activated the power of the Evolution Divine Tower, absorbing the bloodline power from Zhang Liao into it.

Zhang Liao had awakened a Profound Level Third Grade bloodline, extremely powerful, but hadn't had time to use it before being killed by Ye Chen.

Bloodlines of this level can be transformed into a considerable amount of Evolutionary Power, and naturally, Ye Chen wouldn't miss out.

In a breath's time, all of Zhang Liao's bloodline power had been devoured by the Evolution Divine Tower, transformed into three hundred and fifty points of Evolutionary Power.

Additionally, Ye Chen's Evolution Divine Tower already housed over four hundred points of Evolutionary Power.

So now, he possessed nearly eight hundred points of Evolutionary Power.

"Eight hundred points of Evolutionary Power are enough to fully develop an ordinary person's Dantian. If others knew I had this ability, who knows how many would beg me to develop their Dantian! Unfortunately, I can't reveal this secret yet, or it could lead to deadly troubles at any moment," Ye Chen mused silently.

It's known that a thousand points of Evolutionary Power can fully develop Ye Chen's Dantian, granting him ninefold Qi Sea Foundation.

If he wished, he could also allow other cultivators to possess ninefold Qi Sea Foundation.

This is something many cultivators dream of achieving.

After all, even among the disciples of the Six Great Sacred Lands, those with ninefold Qi Sea Foundation are extremely rare.

Which cultivator wouldn't want to have such a powerful Qi Sea Foundation?

However, Ye Chen certainly wouldn't foolishly expose this secret.

If those powerful beings knew he had such a heaven-defying ability, they would undoubtedly covet it.

The consequences then would be unimaginable.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

At this moment, three young cultivators suddenly appeared in this part of the Ancient Forest, just in time to witness Ye Chen killing Zhang Liao.

These three were precisely the students from Celestial Flame Academy who had discovered Ye Chen earlier.

"Ye Chen actually killed a Celestial Spirit Realm expert from Black Sand Academy, doesn't he fear angering Zhang Qian?" the student from Profound Sword Peak said gravely.

"Hmph! He's already offended Black Sand Academy, and now he's killed one of their elite students. Do you think Zhang Qian will let him go? Let's just wait and see the show," said the student from Celestial Flame Peak, a mocking smile on his lips as he looked at Ye Chen as if watching a dead man.

They weren't surprised that Ye Chen could kill Zhang Liao.

After all, Ye Chen's strength was already enough to defeat the elder sister Wang Lian from Profound Sword Peak.

Unfortunately, no matter how strong Ye Chen is, he absolutely cannot contend against Zhang Qian.

It's known that Zhang Qian is ranked fifty-fourth on the Hidden Dragon List, a prodigy of extraordinary talent!

Not to mention Ye Chen, even their top genius in Celestial Flame Academy, Chu Feng, is no match for Zhang Qian.

For Zhang Qian to kill Ye Chen would be as easy as squashing a dead dog.

"Trash, how dare you kill even my cousin, absolutely unforgivable." At this moment, an extremely angry voice suddenly echoed through the Ancient Forest, sending chills down one's spine.

That voice unmistakably came from Zhang Qian.

At this moment, Zhang Qian's eyes turned incomparably blood-red, and even the features on his face twisted together, looking extremely ferocious.

He never expected that Ye Chen, this useless piece of trash, could improve his strength so much in just a few months.

So, by the time he reacted, it was already too late.

His cousin, Zhang Liao, had already died at Ye Chen's hands.

"What? Is he allowed to kill me, but I'm not allowed to fight back? Your Black Sand Academy is truly domineering!" Ye Chen said with a cold laugh, a thick sense of mockery flashing across his lips.

If not for his strength being strong enough today, he would have been crushed to death by Zhang Liao like an ant.

In other words, this was all Zhang Liao's own doing.

But now, Zhang Qian felt that killing Zhang Liao was an egregious crime.

This is truly ridiculous to the extreme.

"Trash, I want you dead. Today, whether in heaven or earth, no one can save you." Zhang Qian's icy eyes shot out terrifying killing intent, as if transforming into an enraged Ancient Fierce Beast, making souls tremble uncontrollably.

Rumble.

The next moment, an incomparably violent Gang Qi surged out of Zhang Qian's body like a tide, instantly condensing into five Celestial Spirit Vortices behind him, like black holes devouring everything.

"What? Zhang Qian's cultivation has improved again, how is that possible?" The three Celestial Flame Academy students couldn't help but gasp, their expressions terrified to the extreme, their bodies trembling intensely.

To know, the last time they saw Zhang Qian, his cultivation was only at the fourth layer of the Celestial Spirit Realm.

But now, he had already stepped into the fifth layer of the Celestial Spirit Realm.

This cultivation speed is too fast.

Of course, it might be that Zhang Qian was already close to breaking through.

"Heavens! Zhang Qian has condensed five Celestial Spirit Vortices, how terrifying is this?"

"No wonder he's ranked fifty-fourth on the Hidden Dragon List, his Gang Qi can now exert power surpassing the Power of Ten Thousand Tigers. Even if Ye Chen's physical body is strong, in front of him, it's a joke. This time, Ye Chen is absolutely doomed."

"Blame it on Ye Chen for being blind, offending someone he shouldn't have." The few young cultivators watching were stunned by Zhang Qian's power, their eyes full of intense fear.

In their view, Ye Chen was already a dead man.

Although Ye Chen possessed a fivefold Qi Sea Foundation.

But his cultivation hadn't stepped into the Celestial Spirit Realm, and the Gang Qi in his body could only exert the Power of Five Thousand Tigers at most.

Compared to Zhang Qian's Gang Qi, it's a world of difference.

Most importantly, Ye Chen couldn't even awaken his bloodline, but Zhang Qian had awakened a Profound Level First Grade bloodline.

Even if Ye Chen's physical body could exert the Power of Nine Thousand Tigers, it couldn't bridge the gap between them.

It can be said that today's battle is without suspense.

Ye Chen will be easily crushed to death by Zhang Qian, without a hint of resistance.

"Trash, do you really think you're something remarkable? In the face of absolute power, your proud physical body is a joke. Today, I'll make you understand how vast the gap is between you and a strong person on the Hidden Dragon List." Zhang Qian raised his head high, his gaze filled with mockery as he stared at Ye Chen, like looking at an ant that could be crushed at will.

Rumble.

The next moment, an awful power erupted from the five Celestial Spirit Vortices behind him, forming a giant golden hand that slammed down towards Ye Chen from above.

"Fourfold Qi Sea Foundation, heavens! Am I dreaming?"

"Zhang Qian's strength is even more terrifying than we thought." The three Celestial Flame Academy students' pupils constricted, their eyes full of shock and disbelief.

They originally thought Zhang Qian's Qi Sea Foundation would be at the same level as Chu Feng, three times that of an ordinary cultivator.

But they never expected him to have a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation, even more terrifying than Chu Feng.

Knowing that an ordinary fifth-layer Celestial Spirit Realm expert's Gang Qi can exert the Power of Three Thousand Five Hundred Tigers.

And Zhang Qian's Qi Sea Foundation is four times that of an ordinary Celestial Spirit Realm expert.

So, the power his Gang Qi can exert alone has already reached the Power of Fourteen Thousand Tigers.

What does Ye Chen have to fight against him?

They are not on the same level at all.

"Even your Celestial Flame Academy's top prodigy Chu Feng, I can easily defeat. Who gave you, this piece of trash, the courage to go against me, kneel before me." Zhang Qian's expression became extremely ferocious, speaking to Ye Chen in a commanding tone.

Bang.

In a flash of lightning, the golden hand Zhang Qian controlled appeared before Ye Chen like an Ancient Divine Mountain, intending to crush and shatter the bones in his body.

The power contained in this golden hand was terrifying, reaching the Power of about Eighteen Thousand Tigers.

He couldn't believe that it wouldn't be enough to crush this trash Ye Chen.
