The elders of the Six Paths Sect offered the Heavenly Treasure Demon Transformation Mirror to Zhenyuan Palace in exchange for Ye Chen's life. Sect Leader Yang Tiangyang agreed to spare Ye Chen, but only if he knelt and kowtowed one hundred times, and had his cultivation abolished. Ye Chen refused these terms, stating he would not kneel or abolish his cultivation, enraging everyone present.

The shadowy figure of the kill god unleashed a furious roar, his violent blade raised as if poised to cleave Ye Chen in two.

At this very moment, Yang Tiangyang himself was provoked by Ye Chen. His aura suddenly erupted, and his form seemed to swell into a colossal giant, towering over the very heavens.

Yang Tiangyang’s immense aura surged outwards, his imposing presence shaking the cosmos, vast and surging like the untamed power of the Nirvana Star Sky.

Within Yang Tiangyang’s eyes lay an endless, chilling abyss, fixated upon Ye Chen with an unparalleled, ferocious murderous intent.

"The Six Paths Sect nurturing such an arrogant disciple will prove to be their gravest mistake!"

Yang Tiangyang bellowed, suddenly extending a palm. Destructive might swept out, as if he intended to seize the universe itself and annihilate all within it, his aura overwhelmingly oppressive.

"Sect Master!"

The sage-like elder's countenance shifted drastically at this critical juncture. If Yang Tiangyang were to act, Ye Chen would possess no chance of survival, a fate that simply could not be allowed.

Heeding the elder's urgent cry, Yang Tiangyang’s aura faltered. He turned his gaze coldly towards the elder. "What troubles you?"

"Sect Master..."

The elder regarded Yang Tiangyang with a solemn expression, then resorted to transmitting his voice, the words echoing within Yang Tiangyang’s mind.

"If you personally strike down Ye Chen today, the entire Moon Soul Domain will perceive Zhenyuan Palace as being unjust. They will deem us as showing utter disregard for the Six Paths Sect, even stepping to bully a junior. Such an act would irrevocably tarnish Zhenyuan Palace’s reputation should word spread."

His words caused Yang Tiangyang’s eyes to gleam with coldness; he had been so utterly incensed by Ye Chen’s arrogance that he had overlooked this crucial detail.

Presently, Zhenyuan Palace stood on different footing compared to its past. Initially, it had only managed to survive through the crucial support of the Six Paths Sect. Now, however, it had ascended to become a prestigious and renowned sect throughout the entire Moon Soul Domain.

Consequently, as the esteemed Sect Master of Zhenyuan Palace, Yang Tiangyang was compelled to weigh numerous factors and could not act with such reckless abandon.

With his expression swiftly altering, Yang Tiangyang’s dominating aura abruptly dissipated. He resumed his seat, casting a cold glare at Ye Chen.

"I shall refrain from striking you today to preclude any accusation of bullying a junior."

"Where are Zhenyuan Palace’s disciples?"

Yang Tiangyang suddenly directed his gaze towards the inner sect disciples within the Holy Family Hall, his voice booming with undisguised anger.

"Your disciples are present!"

In unison, all the inner sect disciples responded with a powerful roar, acknowledging Yang Tiangyang’s summons.

"Which one of you will step forward to apprehend this exceedingly arrogant fellow?"

Yang Tiangyang’s eyes narrowed coldly on Ye Chen, a cruel curve gracing his lips.

Yang Tiangyang harbored no intention of personally engaging Ye Chen. Instead, he desired for Zhenyuan Palace's inner sect disciples to brutally dispatch Ye Chen. He considered Ye Chen, a mere ant residing at the Sixth Level of the Heavenly God Realm, to be easily crushed by any competent inner sect disciple of Zhenyuan Palace.

Upon hearing Yang Tiangyang’s declaration, the inner sect disciples, who already harbored intense killing intent towards Ye Chen and felt deeply affronted, became instantly agitated.

"Allow me! I intend to cripple this useless wretch completely and then torture him to his very death!"

"I can annihilate this ant of the Heavenly God realm with a single sword strike. The Chief Disciple of the Six Paths Sect? Hmph, the Six Paths Sect is utterly worthless!"

"Sect Master, grant me the honor. I wish to personally eliminate this brazen individual for the glory of Zhenyuan Palace!"

Various inner sect disciples vociferously clamored, each burning with eagerness to be the one to strike down Ye Chen.

After all, extinguishing Ye Chen would not only serve as a vent for their pent-up anger but would also provide an opportunity to showcase their prowess before their peers, the elders, and even Yang Tiangyang himself, thereby earning the sect’s commendation. It indeed presented an exceptional chance.

Slaying Ye Chen represented a pathway to significant acclaim, and every one of them coveted this opportunity.

However, a cold, impassive voice suddenly pierced the air. "Sect Master, permit me to handle this arrogant individual. I shall refine him into my Ten Thousand Beast Soul-devouring Lamp, subjecting him to eternal torment as he is gnawed by beasts for eternity!"

At that instant, a voice emerged from a young man radiating a formidable aura, possessing a square jaw and clad in dark gold armor.

This individual was none other than Hua Baomin, a prominent figure ranked among the top ten prodigious talents within Zhenyuan Palace, second only to the esteemed Feng Yusi!

Upon witnessing Hua Baomin’s interjection, the other Zhenyuan Palace disciples fell into a respectful silence. Hua Baomin's superior standing, being second only to Feng Yusi, commanded their admiration, and they dared not contend with him for the privilege of eliminating Ye Chen.

At this juncture, Hua Baomin raised a Glazed Glass Lamp. From within its depths, countless beast souls let out ferocious roars and mournful howls, fixing their predatory gazes upon Ye Chen, seemingly poised to leap forth and devour him.

With unparalleled strength and a history replete with numerous formidable achievements, Hua Baomin had personally vanquished all the savage beast souls contained within the Ten Thousand Beast Soul-devouring Lamp.

"Excellent!"

Yang Tiangyang, witnessing Hua Baomin’s willingness to confront Ye Chen, readily assented without the slightest hesitation. "This arrogant fellow is yours to slay personally!"

Upon hearing this, Hua Baomin's indifferent gaze turned towards Ye Chen, his eyes now blazing with an unquenchable, murderous fury, akin to a ferocious beast gone mad, its eyes bloodshot.

"It is your honor to perish by my hand!" Hua Baomin declared frigidly to Ye Chen.

"Oh?" Ye Chen arched an eyebrow at Hua Baomin's pronouncement, a sneer of disdain gracing his lips. "You are far too weak and utterly unqualified to face me; you had best find someone else."

His words sent ripples of shock through the crowd, with many deeming Ye Chen utterly insane. They believed he was excessively arrogant, underestimating Hua Baomin, who was acknowledged as one of the top ten prodigies of Zhenyuan Palace.

Hua Baomin was incensed, his body erupting with an overwhelmingly fierce aura, much like an ancient demonic beast descending, which violently swept towards Ye Chen with the intent to crush him.

"Arrogant beyond measure, I shall kill you!"

"Roar!"

As Hua Baomin unleashed his attack, it was a blur of blinding speed. Furious roars emanated from the Ten Thousand Beast Soul-devouring Lamp, each savage beast soul within unleashing a celestial might, seeming poised to frighten Ye Chen to his very death.

Concurrently, Hua Baomin brandished a blood-soaked sword. The crimson liquid on its blade was startlingly fresh, emitting a pungent aroma, as if it had only recently tasted life.

This was Hua Baomin's formidable weapon, the Sky-Slicing Sword, renowned for its ability to slay ten thousand ferocious beasts. Having ended countless lives, this blade had absorbed a destructive, ominous power potent enough to cleave through the heavens and the universe itself.

In the face of Hua Baomin's lightning-swift assault, Ye Chen's expression remained remarkably placid, completely unmoved.

Observing this, the assembled members of Zhenyuan Palace within the Holy Family Hall regarded Ye Chen with utter contempt. They presumed he was simply stunned into immobility by Hua Baomin's ferocious sword strike, lacking even the basic courage to retaliate.

"How utterly foolish. To dare claim Brother Hua is unqualified... this Ye Chen demonstrates the pinnacle of arrogance."

"Now is the time for him to face the consequences. With Brother Hua's strike, Ye Chen, let alone the pathetic elders of the Six Paths Sect, would not be able to withstand it."
