Chapter 532 - 528: One Against Three
Swish!
In the blink of an eye, the tree root shot up from deep underground, reaching Ye Chen's face, trying to wrap him up completely.
The power contained in this tree root was truly astonishing, nearly equivalent to the strength of three million tigers.
Even if Wang Tian were here, he would have to give it his all to possibly fend off its attack.
However, Ye Chen's expression remained extremely calm as he directly swung the Golden Autumn Sword in his hand, striking at the root.
There was a resounding splatter.
The next moment, that root was split in half from the middle, falling to the ground and raising a cloud of dust.
"What? How can this human's body be so powerful?" The Leopard Demon's pupils suddenly contracted, and it said in shock.
"Could it be that he has mastered some powerful body refining technique?" Even the Eagle Demon's eyes widened, staring intently at Ye Chen as if trying to pierce through the secrets of his body.
They could sense that Ye Chen's body had just unleashed a combat power of about two million tigers.
Among the Demon Race experts in the Divine Mansion Realm, this might be considered rather ordinary.
However, considering Ye Chen is only about seventeen or eighteen years old, his physical strength has reached such a level.
This clearly shows his body refining talent is certainly extraordinary.
"I never expected you, a lowly human, could actually withstand my attack. I underestimated you!" A cold voice suddenly rang in Ye Chen's ear, filled with mockery.
The speaker was a Demon Race man with green skin.
The man looked just like a human, but numerous branches grew from his arms, looking extremely bizarre.
"Master, he's of the plant type of the Demon Race," the Tower Spirit said with a slight smile.
"Finally, I've been waiting." Ye Chen's eyes burned fiercely, looking at the Wood Demon like he was eyeing a delicious prey.
Plant-type demons contain a large amount of Wood Spirit Qi within them.
If Ye Chen can devour them, he can gain a large amount of Power of Enlightenment.
So, he naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity.
"This Wood Demon's cultivation has reached the late stage of the Divine Mansion Realm, and it can convert at least around ten thousand points of Power of Enlightenment," the Tower Spirit said with a cheerful smile.
"What? Ten thousand points of Power of Enlightenment, that's too much." Ye Chen's body trembled suddenly, hardly believing his ears.
As far as he knows, the Black Dragon Wood he got from the hunched old man last time could only convert about eight thousand points of Power of Enlightenment.
It was precisely because of these points of Power of Enlightenment that Ye Chen successfully mastered the Heaven-Sundering Sword Technique.
Yet the Wood Demon in front of him could grant Ye Chen about ten thousand points of Power of Enlightenment.
This far exceeded Ye Chen's expectations.
"That's not so much. After all, the opponent is a late-stage Divine Mansion Realm Wood Demon, and if he has Demon King Bloodline, the convertible Power of Enlightenment would be even more," the Tower Spirit said calmly.
"It seems I've come to the right place this time. If I can gather enough Power of Enlightenment, I can also fully master the Void Divine Fist, a Celestial Level Martial Arts," Ye Chen said excitedly.
"Wood Demon, it's a Wood Demon."
"How could this happen? Brother Ye Chen was unexpectedly targeted by three late-stage Divine Mansion Realm demons at once, what should we do now?" At this time, the disciples of Overlord Body Peak behind Ye Chen all looked extremely grim, filled with utmost worry.
It's known that Wood Demons are quite rare among the Outer Realm Demon Race.
Their strength is even more terrifying than those carnivorous demons.
The Wood Demon's cultivation in front of them has already reached the late stage of the Divine Mansion Realm, and ordinary late-stage Divine Mansion Realm cultivators wouldn't withstand him at all.
Even in the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, only those late-stage Divine Mansion Realm true disciples could contend with this Wood Demon.
As for Ye Chen, though his body refining talent and martial arts talent are strong, his cultivation has only just stepped into the Divine Mansion Realm.
It's exceedingly difficult to defeat this Wood Demon.
Not to mention, there is also a late-stage Divine Mansion Realm Leopard Demon and Eagle Demon prowling nearby.
"Brother Wood, it seems this human's talent is higher than we imagined, and today, we must eliminate him at any cost." The Leopard Demon spoke, its eyes shooting terrifying killing intent.
"He certainly mastered a powerful body refining technique, otherwise, his physique couldn't be this strong. Unfortunately, he's too young, far from fully grown. Killing him isn't difficult for us," the Eagle Demon sneered, with a playful mockery on the corners of its mouth.
"You two don't need to make a move, let me deal with this ant myself," the Wood Demon said disdainfully, looking at Ye Chen as though he was already a dead man.
"That's not going to happen. We've finally stumbled upon a human genius; there's no way I'm handing him over to you!" the Leopard Demon snorted coldly.
The Outer Realm Demon Race earns merit points by slaying human geniuses.
The higher the human talent they kill, the greater the reward they receive.
So the Leopard Demon was naturally unwilling to hand over the prey that was within its grasp so easily.
"All three of you, come at me together. No matter how many like you come, you're no match for me. I don't want to waste time on you," Ye Chen suddenly said, his tone overwhelmingly assertive and domineering.
"What did you say?"
"Overestimating your abilities! Who gave you the courage to speak to us this way?" The Leopard Demon and Eagle Demon suddenly burst with sky-high fury as if they had been greatly humiliated.
"Die!" Especially the Wood Demon, its entire being brimming with terrifying killing intent, flashed forward, and charged straight at Ye Chen.
For him, a dignified late-stage Divine Mansion Realm Wood Demon, to be so underestimated by a young human brat was an enormous insult.
Thus, he had to make Ye Chen realize just how foolish and ignorant he was.
Swish.
Almost at the same time, the Eagle Demon spread its wings behind it, transforming into a golden lightning bolt, darting toward Ye Chen.
"I said I was the first to discover this prey, so I should be the one to kill him," the Leopard Demon said with a cold smile, as its body left an afterimage, disappearing without a trace.
Its speed was undeniably the fastest among the three Demon Race entities.
In the blink of an eye, it appeared ten feet away from Ye Chen, brandishing five incredibly sharp claws at him.
