The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2290 - 2279: Still Alive?
Previously on The Strongest Dandy in the City...
Upon hearing Tun Tian’s command, the approximately forty members of the Bloodswallow Clan swiftly channeled the Spiritual Qi within their meridians. All of them had attained the Divine King Realm.
Following Tun Tian’s gesture, they all mirrored his movement, waving their arms in unison.
Tun Tian perceived the oppressive force from the heavens, which hampered their ability to traverse the void. However, this external pressure did not diminish their offensive power. His own arms moved with increasing speed, blurring into an indistinguishable motion, causing the blood beneath his semi-transparent skin to surge with accelerated flow.
Furious crimson spiritual energy erupted from his body, coalescing around him, compressing the surrounding air and distorting the very fabric of space.
With a sudden strike towards Ye Chenfeng suspended in the air, Tun Tian declared, "Blood Origin Unity!"
"Boom!"
The spiritual energy manifested as a tumultuous, blood-red river. This colossal torrent, born from spiritual energy, hurtled towards Ye Chenfeng in the sky, carrying an overwhelming force capable of annihilating all in its path.
This was, after all, a devastating blow from a cultivator in the Early Divine Venerate Realm. As the blood-red river traversed the space, the very air cracked, revealing fine fissures.
The remaining forty or so members of the Bloodswallow Clan executed the identical technique as Tun Tian, employing Blood Origin Unity.
Despite their synchronized efforts, these forty members were less potent than Tun Tian, resulting in considerably weaker blood-red rivers. Nevertheless, the sight of more than forty spirit-manifested blood rivers converging was undoubtedly a breathtaking spectacle.
The very ground of the surroundings trembled incessantly.
Having unleashed Blood Origin Unity, Tun Tian’s lips twisted into a chilling smile, his gaze locked onto Ye Chenfeng above. He was confident that Ye Chenfeng could not possibly endure such an overwhelming assault, believing his opponent’s demise was imminent. Yet, it was regrettable that he could not fathom Ye Chenfeng’s hidden secrets.
Ye Chenfeng, standing placidly in the sky, observed the colossal blood-red river advancing towards him, closely followed by the forty other rivers of spiritual energy. The sheer momentum of their approach caused a surge of blood within him, and a trickle of crimson seeped from the corner of his mouth.
This was a coordinated assault involving an Early Divine Venerate and over forty experts at the Divine King Realm! In contrast, Ye Chenfeng's current cultivation base was merely at the zenith of the sixth level of the Heavenly God Realm.
Even though Ye Chenfeng’s strength had advanced, his usage of the Immortal Golden Body was still limited to twenty times. Furthermore, with each subsequent breakthrough, the rate at which he could increase the uses of the Immortal Golden Body slowed considerably.
Gazing at the approaching torrents of blood, the solemn voice of Old Bai Wu Fengxian resonated within his mind: "Little one, focus all your spirit; you must redirect all the power from these attacks onto the Array Eyes. Old Hei and I have imparted the transfer method to you; the success now rests entirely on your shoulders."
The moment Old Bai concluded his words.
"Boom!"
Tun Tian’s unleashed blood river collided with Ye Chenfeng, completely engulfing him within its crimson depths.
Despite being subjected to Tun Tian’s blood river, Ye Chenfeng maintained his right hand steadfastly pointed towards the Array Eyes. Internally, the Divine Blood Art had been activated long ago, enabling him to continuously deploy the Immortal Golden Body. Concurrently, employing the transfer technique instructed by Old Bai and Old Hei, he channeled the offensive power of Tun Tian's strike directly into the Array Eyes.
Although Ye Chenfeng merely acted as a conduit for power transfer, the barrage inflicted immense damage upon his physical form, causing his flesh to tear and his bones to fracture repeatedly.
Fortuitously, just prior to the impact of Tun Tian’s blood-red river, he had commenced the repeated activation of the Immortal Golden Body. Consequently, even while enduring mortal wounds, the Immortal Golden Body rapidly facilitated his recovery.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—"
As Tun Tian’s blood-red river had not yet completely dissipated, the other forty-odd blood-red rivers swiftly arrived, slamming into Ye Chenfeng in rapid succession, their impacts echoing thunderously through the sky.
The area of the sky where Ye Chenfeng stood became entirely consumed by blood-red spiritual energy, obscuring everything from view.
Hua Wanchuan, Luo Qianhai, and the others from the Xiao Yao Palace Sect, having already retreated, cast their gaze back towards Ye Chenfeng’s location upon hearing the cacophony of explosions. A profound shock gripped their hearts. They believed that even they themselves could not have survived such an onslaught, let alone Ye Chenfeng, whom they deemed to have absolutely no chance of survival.
Luo Qianjiang voiced, "This kid bought us precious time to escape, but he is surely doomed now. How are we going to leave this place?"
Luo Qianjiang’s question left Hua Wanchuan and the others in a quandary, as they possessed no discernible means of escape.
Meanwhile, Tan Yuanwu, who had fled in a different direction, also sensed the disturbance. His gaze, filled with worry, fixed upon the distant blood-red sky as he reached the vicinity of a concealed Teleportation Array.
Knowing the ancestral lands of the Bloodswallow Clan were extremely vast, Ye Chenfeng meticulously established a Teleportation Array at the valley entrance before their departure from where Bai Xiaorou and her companions resided. He anticipated potential emergencies, thus ensuring swift access back to the valley by positioning a Teleportation Array, linked to the valley entrance, at regular intervals along their path.
With a worried frown, Tan Yuanwu whispered, "Chenfeng, you simply must be alright! You need to pull off another miracle!"
While Tan Yuanwu spoke his own concerns aloud.
Meanwhile, back with Tun Tian and his group, Tun Tian’s gaze remained fixed on the sky, his expression returning to a state of composure. Could Ye Chenfeng possibly endure such a brutal onslaught? The answer, he felt, was a definitive no.
The seconds began to tick by, one after another.
Gradually, the oppressive, blood-red spiritual energy that filled the sky started to dissipate, until it completely vanished without a trace.
And what then appeared in the sky...
Was Ye Chenfeng, still airborne but staggering, completely drenched in blood. He was a ghastly figure, a walking embodiment of gore, with his entire being and even his face smeared and soaked in crimson.
All twenty uses of the Immortal Golden Body had been completely expended.
Even after the depletion of his Immortal Golden Body, some residual energy from the blood-red rivers still lingered. Fortunately, this remaining energy was considerably weaker; otherwise, Ye Chenfeng would undoubtedly have met his demise.
Nevertheless, even with this fortunate turn, Ye Chenfeng suffered severe internal injuries.
The placid look on Tun Tian’s face instantly evaporated, his eyes widening in shock.
Ye Chenfeng was actually still alive?
He had survived such an immense and devastating assault?
