The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3169 - 3164: Killing Xuan Zhen_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
The true nature of this Asura Soul Body remained a mystery to him. While he could manage other forces from the Spirit God Clan with relative ease, the sheer power of this particular Asura Soul Body was terrifying and proved exceptionally difficult to eliminate.
However, the presence of an Asura Soul Body currently offered some advantages.
At the very least, the High Myriad God Asura was now successfully obstructing all of Xuan Jie’s techniques.
Still, Xuan Jie was no simple opponent. Beyond the Heaven Non-Action Asura and his personal Heavenly Xuan Thunderballs, he possessed a variety of other methods in his arsenal.
Seeing that his Heaven Non-Action Asura and Heavenly Xuan Thunderballs were being held in check, he immediately pivoted his strategy and launched a direct assault on Yang Chen.
This time, a rotating black vortex manifested in his palm.
The black vortex exerted a massive gravitational pull, reminiscent of a black hole, yet it functioned with a fundamentally different force. Yang Chen narrowed his eyes cautiously and first unleashed the Deathly Silent Black Wind to test it.
Chi Chi.
When the Deathly Silent Black Wind struck the black vortex, Yang Chen was momentarily stunned.
His Deathly Silent Black Wind had been instantly and completely consumed by the black vortex.
“It can even swallow my most powerful Dao Intent? Could these be the Devouring Rules?” Yang Chen pondered, feeling a moment of hesitation.
He had exhausted nearly every technique. Xuan Jie’s Devouring Vortex was closing in, effectively sealing off all his paths of retreat.
“I want to see what else you have left to oppose me with.” The black vortex in Xuan Jie’s grip expanded, aimed directly at Yang Chen with lethal intent.
In that critical moment, Yang Chen’s finger twitched, and he instantly summoned the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword, sending it whistling toward Xuan Jie in a counterattack.
The Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword moved with the velocity of a lightning bolt, but Xuan Jie was clearly wary of this specific move. He tilted his head sharply, narrowly dodging the blade.
“Hahaha! Yang Chen, are you finally out of tricks?” Xuan Jie let out a cold, mocking laugh.
It was true that the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword had missed its mark, yet Yang Chen showed no signs of panic. Instead, a smirk played on his lips, and he suddenly vanished from his position.
Xuan Jie sneered, “Trying to flee? Where do you think you can go?”
He assumed Yang Chen was attempting a desperate escape, but upon closer inspection, he realized that Yang Chen wasn't running away at all...
“Second Brother, save me! This is bad!” Xuan Zhen screamed in terror from the rear.
Having missed Xuan Jie, the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword did not lose momentum; it flew straight toward Xuan Zhen instead.
Xuan Jie’s heart jolted as he realized Yang Chen’s true target had been Xuan Zhen all along.
Xuan Zhen’s reaction was a fraction too slow, as he had assumed Yang Chen was entirely preoccupied with his second brother and wouldn't spare him a glance.
By the time he understood the danger, it was too late to mount a defense.
Xuan Zhen was well aware that without his High Myriad God Asura, he had no way to withstand Yang Chen’s sword. He attempted to flee for his life.
But Yang Chen had no intention of letting him slip away.
Had Xuan Zhen been at his peak, he might have escaped. However, Xuan Zhen had drained his reserves, and his remaining Qi was insufficient for a swift retreat.
“Freeze!”
Yang Chen immediately triggered his Space-Time Imprisonment.
It only held Xuan Zhen for a heartbeat, but a heartbeat was all that was required.
The Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword flashed through the air, completely impaling Xuan Zhen’s chest.
Xuan Zhen’s frame buckled. Under the intense, crackling lightning of the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword, his body was torn apart, his life force extinguished, and his Qi dissipated into nothingness.
Xuan Jie witnessed the entire execution.
He was too far away to intervene. Seeing his brother slaughtered before his eyes by Yang Chen caused his composure to shatter instantly.
“Yang Chen, I’ll kill you for this!” Xuan Jie roared in a fit of rage.
With a thunderous boom, the Heaven Non-Action Asura ripped through the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm that Yang Chen had cast, breaking free from its restraints.
Watching this, Yang Chen narrowed his eyes, forced to acknowledge the formidable power of that Asura.
The Heaven Non-Action Asura remained relatively unscathed, and his own High Myriad God Asura was still holding its ground.
The situation had evolved into a direct confrontation between Yang Chen and Xuan Jie, including their respective Asuras.
However, in a direct comparison, Yang Chen’s High Myriad God was clearly outmatched. It was difficult to command, and its Asura Soul Body was fundamentally weaker.
Furthermore, having unleashed the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm twice in quick succession, Yang Chen was beginning to feel the onset of exhaustion.
“Yang Chen, your life ends today,” Xuan Jie hissed venomously.
“I suppose I have no choice but to use my final trump card...” Yang Chen whispered to himself.
Just as he prepared to move, several powerful auras suddenly swept across the distant horizon.
“Is that the reinforcements from Shi Ye City?”
Led by Han Bo and Lin Tianyi, the group arrived with great speed.
“Just as we thought, an ambush. Who is this Spirit God Clan expert?”
“That is Xuan Jie, a long-renowned master of the Spirit God Clan. His lifespan exceeds that of most cultivators in the Heaven-separated Realm.”
“What? The second prince of the Spirit God Clan, Xuan Jie?”
“Quickly, surround and kill him!”
The group of powerful experts moved in unison, attempting to block Xuan Jie’s path.
Though Xuan Jie was consumed by fury, the arrival of so many powerful enemies struck fear into him. He realized the battle was no longer winnable.
“Yang Chen, I’ll let you keep your life for now. We will meet again!” Xuan Jie didn't dare stay. He shifted his form, and a massive vortex filled with Devouring Rules appeared.
Xuan Jie plunged into the vortex, intending to flee.
Yang Chen was not about to let him escape. Sensing the technique involved space and time, he immediately countered with Space-Time Sealing.
In Yang Chen's eyes, trying to manipulate space-time against him was amateurish.
However, when the Space-Time Sealing collided with the Devouring Rules, it was unexpectedly swallowed whole.
“The Devouring Rules can even do that?” Yang Chen was stunned, watching as Xuan Jie successfully made his getaway.
The vortex vanished without a trace, taking Xuan Jie with it.
Yang Chen could only let out a frustrated sigh.
“Curse it, he escaped!” Han Bo gritted his teeth. “What a waste of a perfect opportunity!”
“How could there be an ambush here? Mo Wanchou’s subordinates didn't say a word during the interrogation. We were worried Xuan Zhen had other tricks and didn't want to rush in and scare him off. Who would have guessed there was a trap waiting?”
As Han Bo and Lin Tianyi spoke, their gazes turned sharply toward Mo Wanchou’s followers standing nearby.
The men turned red with embarrassment. They had known their Young Master would be harmed by Xuan Jie, but they had remained silent to protect their own interests.
The people of Shi Ye City had been in the dark, but now that the truth was out, they felt the sting of betrayal. It was obvious that Mo Wanchou had hidden the truth on purpose.
“Hmph, Shi Ye City really is something else. You suffered a loss and kept quiet about it. Did you want us to fall into the same trap?” Han Bo pointed at King Bai Ku’s head, venting his anger with a harsh scolding.
