The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2218 - 2207: The Realm Beyond Divine King
As Ye Chenfeng’s gaze swept towards the Fifth Elder and the others.
The Fifth Elder and the others immediately snapped back to reality. Although they were shocked and terrified, their strength ranged between the third and fourth layers of the Heavenly God Realm, whereas Ye Chenfeng was only at the Initial Stage of the first layer of the Heavenly God Realm. Why should they fear him?
Understanding this point, the Fifth Elder of the Jins and the others immediately raised their auras. As they prepared to launch their attack, Ye Chenfeng acted first, unleashing the full power of the Supreme Ten Revolutions. Red lightning flickered at his calves and soles, making his figure appear like a red bolt of lightning.
By pushing his strength to the extreme and using the Four-Star Secret Method: Thousand Thunder Flash, his speed became overwhelming for the Fifth Elder and the others. After all, they weren’t exceptionally talented, nor were their combat capabilities absurdly high.
Unable to track Ye Chenfeng’s movements, the Fifth Elder and the others stared wide-eyed like lanterns, forming a protective layer of Spiritual Energy around themselves. Their heartbeats quickened, their eyes darting around in search of him.
A "pfft" sound suddenly came from the air.
The Spiritual Energy defense in front of the Fifth Elder of the Jins was directly breached. Ye Chenfeng’s hand pierced through the Fifth Elder’s chest like an unstoppable force, instantly shattering the Fifth Elder’s heart.
The Fifth Elder was killed instantly.
After the Fifth Elder’s death, Ye Chenfeng placed both hands on the elder’s body. Black vortexes appeared on the backs of his hands, rapidly devouring the absorbable energy from the Fifth Elder’s body into Ye Chenfeng’s own.
Ye Chenfeng’s aura surged violently. With the energy absorbed earlier from Jin Zhiteng, his aura at the Initial Stage of the first layer of the Heavenly God Realm became unstable, quickly progressing to the Middle Stage, and then rapidly to the Late Stage.
Finally, Ye Chenfeng’s aura stabilized at the Late Stage of the first layer of the Heavenly God Realm, while the Fifth Elder’s body shriveled completely. If the ability could absorb all of the opponent’s energy, it would be more remarkable; however, it could only merge a portion of the most easily absorbed energy from the opponent’s body.
The remaining four elders, upon witnessing the Fifth Elder being slain, and Ye Chenfeng advancing by two minor stages consecutively, became extremely tense. Among them, two were at the Middle Stage of the third layer of the Heavenly God Realm, and the other two at the Middle Stage of the fourth layer.
The four elders surrounded Ye Chenfeng, with Spiritual Energy fiercely emanating from their bodies. They swung their arms, unleashing powerful Combat Skills.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Powerful attacks charged towards Ye Chenfeng, splitting the ground rapidly.
Ye Chenfeng, with red lightning flickering beneath his feet, evaded the attacks effortlessly, appearing skillful and composed.
Another couple of "pfft" sounds echoed.
The two elders at the Middle Stage of the third layer of the Heavenly God Realm gradually fell to the ground, their hearts pierced through.
The other two elders at the Middle Stage of the fourth layer of the Heavenly God Realm drew sharp breaths; they felt like fish at Ye Chenfeng’s mercy.
Ye Chenfeng continued using the Sea-Nurturing Rivers method to extract from the deceased two elders of the Middle Stage of the third layer.
As the two elders’ bodies withered away, Ye Chenfeng’s aura surged once more.
He ascended from the Late Stage of the first layer to the Peak, then charged into the Initial Stage of the second layer.
Given that these two elders were weaker than the Fifth Elder of the Jins, and Ye Chenfeng’s strength had recently advanced, the combined energy from these two elders only allowed him to rise by two minor stages.
The last two elders at the Middle Stage of the fourth layer of the Heavenly God Realm realized they weren’t a match for Ye Chenfeng, more so with Ye Chenfeng now at the Initial Stage of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm. They had never witnessed such a bizarre event in their lifetime.
One white-haired elder drew out a long-distance messaging talisman, attempting to send a message. As he activated it and just managed to send out a few syllables, he felt a chill across his body.
A massive brown Sword Qi swept across him, severing him in two.
Ye Chenfeng wielded the Qingyun Sword, unleashing the Tenth Order Unyielding Sword Intent.
The final elder at the Middle Stage of the fourth layer of the Heavenly God Realm was utterly terrified. How could this level of combat prowess still be considered the Initial Stage of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm? As terror consumed him, Ye Chenfeng’s Qingyun Sword sliced across his throat.
As dense blood sprayed from the wound on his throat, his life force quickly drained away, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Ye Chenfeng then began absorbing the energy from these two deceased elders, with the black vortexes on his hands spinning faster and faster.
His aura surged upwards once more.
The Middle Stage of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm!
The Late Stage of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm!
Finally, it stabilized at the Peak of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm. With his increasing strength, Ye Chenfeng found he needed to absorb more energy to break through.
Feeling the aura of the Peak of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm within himself, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Ye Chenfeng’s lips. This method of rapidly enhancing strength seemed quite effective. After casually destroying the corpses of Jin Zhiteng and the others, he focused his attention on the small secret realm entrance ahead.
After a brief hesitation, he stepped directly into the entrance.
Upon entering the small secret realm, Ye Chenfeng’s vision instantly broadened.
Ye Chenfeng found himself in an endless desert, with the sun in the sky blazing fiercely, the extreme temperatures scorching the earth, even the air inhaled into his lungs felt unbearably hot.
As a practitioner at the Peak of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm, Ye Chenfeng found this temperature still bearable.
Ye Chenfeng began his exploration in this vast desert.
Not until the sky started to darken did Ye Chenfeng emerge from the desert. Perhaps because the desert lay at the edge of the secret realm, all the explorable areas had already been explored by the Flame Heaven Valley, the Xues, and Xiao Yao Palace, so Ye Chenfeng found nothing extraordinary there.
Upon exiting the vast desert, a continuous mountain range came into view.
The sky grew increasingly dark.
As night completely set in, the temperature within this small secret realm abruptly shifted. Gusts of chilling wind arose from nowhere, and the temperature plummeted as an extreme icy cold swept over Ye Chenfeng.
This icy cold was no ordinary chill; even Ye Chenfeng, at the Peak of the second layer of the Heavenly God Realm, couldn’t help but shiver.
Suddenly.
A formidable aura struck from the east, continuously surging like a monstrous tidal wave.
Ye Chenfeng, caught off guard, was hit hard by the overwhelming aura.
Even with Ye Chenfeng elevating his internal aura to resist, his body was knocked away, crashing into a massive boulder.
"Bang!" echoed as the boulder shattered upon impact from Ye Chenfeng’s body.
Blood continually oozed from Ye Chenfeng’s mouth. It was just an aura from afar, yet he was knocked away like this? And his body sustained considerable injuries; not even a Peak Divine King’s aura was this terrifying, right?
Old Bai Wu Fengxian immediately spoke: "Little one, quickly find a place to hide. Old Hei and I suddenly recalled the origin of this secret realm; there are entities above the Divine King Realm here. If you encounter them, not even we can save you, given we’re both only in a remnant soul state."
An existence above the Divine King Realm?
Ye Chenfeng wasn’t aware of any levels beyond the Divine King Realm, but he didn’t have the luxury to ask further. He promptly fled in the opposite direction of the aura, quickly vanishing into the continuous mountain range.
