Ye Chenfeng easily withstands Cheng Gaorong's powerful attack and counters with his own, crippling the Third City Lord. Witnessing this, City Lord Tan Muya and Second City Lord Chu Guangtian, realizing Ye Chenfeng's strength, decide to offer him the position of Third City Lord to exploit his abilities for their own dangerous plans within the mysterious space.

"Puff!"

Cheng Gaorong, who was on the verge of death within the pit, suddenly expelled a mouthful of fresh blood upon hearing Tan Muya’s words.

He could never have predicted that Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian would be so utterly ruthless. His face turned an even ghastlier shade of pale, and the very life force within his eyes rapidly drained away, ultimately succumbing to his fury prematurely.

Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian displayed no hint of concern for Cheng Gaorong’s demise.

Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong, who lay prostrate on the ground behind Ye Chenfeng, let out a collective sigh of relief in their hearts. They understood that this represented the most favorable outcome. Although Ye Chenfeng had swiftly dispatched Cheng Gaorong, Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian possessed a significantly greater power level than Cheng Gaorong. Facing the combined might of these two formidable individuals, Ye Chenfeng’s prospects for victory were far from promising.

However, an unexpected turn of events transpired. Ye Chenfeng offered no hesitation, directly stating, "What? Are you attempting to propose a truce? The elder I eliminated was one of the City Lords of Floating Cloud City. He could have held on a little longer, but your words ignited his rage, leading to his demise. This chilling human nature, I have witnessed it firsthand today."

"Had I arrived even a moment later, my companions would have been transformed into mere blood. This matter necessitates a proper reckoning. I am merely at the Initial Stage of the Divine King Realm, whereas you two stand at the Peak and Late Stages respectively. What is it that causes you such apprehension?"

"Allow me to venture a guess! Perhaps you have not yet grasped the full extent of my capabilities, yet the reason you have decided against engaging me in combat is likely because you have recognized my strength and seek to leverage it, am I correct? The position of Floating Cloud City’s City Lord is not a mantle easily donned!"

Ye Chenfeng’s gaze fell upon Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian with a mocking glint.

The true intentions of these two elders were laid bare by Ye Chenfeng’s words, and their facade of amiability vanished in an instant. The sole reasons they had refrained from acting against Ye Chenfeng were a few underlying concerns, coupled with their desire to utilize him.

Nevertheless, the combat prowess Ye Chenfeng had just displayed was far from sufficient to instill genuine fear in them. Tan Muya’s countenance darkened, his spiritual energy stirring within his body as he declared, "Brat, you mistake a bit of courtesy for an invitation to establish dominance here? Since you are so profoundly ignorant, we shall dispatch you immediately."

A cerulean spiritual energy emanated from Chu Guangtian’s form, surging forth boundlessly. "You certainly possess some talent, but your strength is confined to the Initial Stage of the Divine King Realm. Do you truly believe you can contend against our combined might? Shall we put it to the test?"

With those pronouncements.

Chu Guangtian and Tan Muya simultaneously dematerialized from their positions, reappearing instantaneously before Ye Chenfeng and unleashing powerful punches in his direction.

The sheer force generated by their converging fists caused the very space around them to warp subtly, accompanied by a thunderous roar that assaulted the ears.

Despite the seemingly unadorned nature of the assault, it harbored the absolute peak strength of Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian, their fists resembling ferocious tigers descending from a precipice, poised to rend Ye Chenfeng asunder.

Even before their fists made contact.

Ye Chenfeng could already feel the overwhelming pressure crashing down upon him. His garments were ripped to shreds, his own fists clenched with unyielding resolve. The Supreme Ten Revolutions technique was pushed to its absolute limit, spiritual energy surged like a torrential flood from within his being, and his fists, akin to arrows loosed from a bowstring, met the oncoming blows of Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian.

"Bang! Bang!" Two resounding impacts echoed.

Ye Chenfeng was propelled backward a distance of three paces, and Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian were likewise forced back three steps.

The raw, unadulterated force emanating from the clashes on both sides had perfectly neutralized each other, despite Ye Chenfeng confronting the combined might of Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian!

Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian shared a critical deficiency akin to Cheng Gaorong; the spiritual energy coursing through their bodies exhibited a degree of instability. It appeared that their prolonged existence within the mysterious domain had exerted a detrimental influence on their combat efficacy. Otherwise, repelling an assault from cultivators at the Peak and Late Stages of the Divine King Realm would not have proven so easily achievable.

Following this initial probing exchange, a sense of disquietude settled within Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian’s hearts. They had never anticipated Ye Chenfeng’s strength to be so astonishingly formidable, and a sinister shadow began to creep into the corners of their eyes.

Should they sustain severe injuries within the enigmatic space, given the scarcity of resources available therein, it could prove exceedingly detrimental to Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian, potentially even leading to a regression in their cultivation levels. Furthermore, while their ultimate secret techniques remained unleashed, they could not be certain whether Ye Chenfeng harbored any hidden trump cards.

Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian were unwilling to leave their fate to chance. They had no desire to gamble with their cultivated realms, and thus, they simultaneously retreated a distance of several tens of meters.

As they fell back, their arms began to move through the air, generating palpable ripples that disturbed the atmosphere throughout the entirety of Floating Cloud City.

Before long, these atmospheric disturbances intensified considerably.

A dense concentration of spiritual energy erupted from Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian, simultaneously rending a colossal tear in the sky above Floating Cloud City. From this chasm, the imposing silhouette of a black mountain began to materialize.

As the colossal mountain solidified after its emergence, an overwhelming force of suppression emanated from its core, pressing downwards.

Almost in unison, Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian let out a powerful cry: "One Mountain Suppresses the World!"

The immensely potent mountain then rapidly descended, aiming to crush Ye Chenfeng.

The 'One Mountain Suppresses the World' is a formidable offensive formation, meticulously crafted from pre-arranged energy and specialized Profound Meanings to create a devastating attack.

Its initial construction was intended as a defense against any potential incursion by powerful Flame Demon Fish into the city. Activating it typically requires an excessive amount of energy, making its use infrequent.

Moreover, when 'One Mountain Suppresses the World' is brought into play, the protective Barrier around Floating Cloud City experiences a significant weakening, as maintaining both requires a continuous expenditure of energy.

Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian unleashed 'One Mountain Suppresses the World' because they desired to prevent any unforeseen complications or further disturbances within the mysterious space. After gauging Ye Chenfeng’s capabilities, they resolved to expend the city’s energy reserves to activate this powerful technique and obliterate him.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The fully formed, gigantic black mountain plummeted towards Ye Chenfeng with terrifying speed.

Looming before the descending black mountain, Ye Chenfeng felt a stifling pressure that rendered his body somewhat rigid.

Witnessing Ye Chenfeng's momentarily stiffened posture, Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian exchanged smug grins. They were intimately aware of 'One Mountain Suppresses the World's' destructive might; even a combined effort from them would result in instant annihilation. For them, Ye Chenfeng's doom was assured.

Tan Muya sneered, his voice laced with disdain, "Brat, you were given a chance at life, yet you actively chose death. Your combat prowess did indeed surprise us, but it all concludes here. You may now rest in eternal peace."
