Supreme Lord of Towers

At this moment, countless tree branches stood erect in front of Ye Chen, numbering in the hundreds, all of them having fallen from the body of the Purple Wood Demon King.

Ye Chen's eyes were filled with deep excitement. With a thought, he gathered them into his storage bracelet.

"Master, if the wood spirit qi contained in these branches is completely converted into the power of enlightenment, it will definitely be enough to master the Void Divine Fist," the Tower Spirit said with a cheerful smile.

"I really do need to master a celestial level martial art now. Otherwise, when fighting with the Profound Pill True Person, I won't have any advantage in the martial arts realm," Ye Chen nodded and said.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, his figure flashed, transforming into a stream of light that rapidly flew deeper into the Celestial Cry Mountain Range.

Although he wanted to immediately master the Void Divine Fist, both Zhou'er and Xu Yan were in a critical situation; he had to find them first.

As for the Void Divine Fist, he could wait to cultivate it after returning to the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

"Master, Zhou'er's aura is getting closer, only less than four hundred miles away. However, her aura is becoming increasingly weak, and she is likely in mortal danger," the Tower Spirit suddenly frowned and said to Ye Chen.

"Damn it! I must find her as soon as possible." Ye Chen's expression turned extremely grim, pushing his speed to the limit, vanishing from the spot in an instant.

For him now, the distance of four hundred miles wasn't far at all; it would take less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea to reach.

However, Zhou'er's aura was becoming weaker and weaker.

Even if Ye Chen were to be late by a single breath, she might die at the hands of the enemy.

How could Ye Chen not be anxious?

With a loud bang.

In the depths of the Celestial Cry Mountain Range, a figure flew horizontally like a meteor, breaking through one towering ancient tree after another, which took several people to encircle, splinters flying everywhere.

After breaking through dozens of towering ancient trees, this figure finally stopped, lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, turning into a person soaked in blood.

This figure was none other than the top true disciple of Overlord Body Peak, Xu Yan.

At this moment, all the bones in his body were thoroughly broken, countless deep wounds exposed the bone, as fresh blood continuously surged out.

Even his internal organs suffered unimaginable trauma, appearing with countless cracks.

If it weren't for him having cultivated the Red Flood Dragon Technique to the third realm, making his physical body much stronger than other cultivators in the Divine Mansion Realm, he would have already been dead.

Despite this, he still lay dying, with only his last breath left, ready to die at any moment.

"Xu Yan." In the ancient forest, a black-clad girl couldn't help but cry out anxiously, her entire face losing blood.

This black-clad girl was Zhou'er.

"Ha! Bitch, you can stop shouting. This piece of trash, whose bones I've completely shattered and whose internal organs are critically damaged, wouldn't survive even if the Divine Spirit came," a cold voice suddenly echoed in the ancient forest at this moment.

The speaker was none other than Hua Qianxue, a candidate saint son of the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect.

Her lips twisted into a smirk full of mockery, her gaze at Xu Yan as if she were looking at a dead man.

"Hua Qianxue, Xu Yan has no enmity with you, why do you want to kill him? I've already agreed to go with you, why can't you spare him?" Zhou'er's eyes turned blood-red with fury, anger blazing from them as she spoke through gritted teeth to Hua Qianxue.

She and Xu Yan had already safely left that canyon.

But they never expected to be discovered by Hua Qianxue en route.

Since then, Hua Qianxue had been relentlessly hunting them.

Although Zhou'er and Xu Yan managed to shake her off multiple times with some secret treasures they carried and the complex terrain within the Celestial Cry Mountain Range,

Ultimately, they were still caught by Hua Qianxue.

Zhou'er knew she was no match for Hua Qianxue, so she agreed to go with her.

She only hoped Hua Qianxue would spare Xu Yan.

After all, Xu Yan was innocent.

She did not expect Hua Qianxue to be so unscrupulously vicious, not sparing even Xu Yan.

Although Xu Yan was the top true disciple of Overlord Body Peak, he was no match for Hua Qianxue.

In a few rounds, Hua Qianxue shattered all of Xu Yan's bones, inflicting him with unimaginable injuries.

Unless a miracle happened, Xu Yan was likely to meet a dire fate today.

"Humph! Bitch, what right do you have to negotiate with me? Today, this meddling fool must die. Who told him to side with that worthless Ye Chen?" Hua Qianxue spoke with an extremely cold voice, devoid of emotion, sending chills down one's spine.

Xu Yan knew full well that Ye Chen was the target Hua Qianxue and Tuoba You wanted to eliminate, yet he dared to step forward and protect Ye Chen.

This was simply courting death.

So, today, she absolutely wouldn't let Xu Yan leave alive.

"Hua Qianxue, the person you want is me; he has nothing to do with it. If you spare him, I'll immediately go with you," Zhou'er's face twisted into an ugly expression, pleading with Hua Qianxue.

Though she hadn't known Xu Yan for long, they had once fought side by side.

She honestly didn't want to drag Xu Yan into it.

"Dream on. I'll crush him before your eyes now. Anyway, you can't escape my grasp," Hua Qianxue said coldly, her lips curling into a chilling grin, exuding a terrifying aura.

"No." Zhou'er let out a furious roar, as a hundred-zhang-long black mythical bird appeared behind her, engulfed in black flames, charging at Hua Qianxue.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

Hua Qianxue's power was overwhelmingly strong, suppressing Zhou'er was no hard feat.

With a loud bang.

The next moment, Zhouer's body was blasted away by a purple lotus, blood gushing continuously from her mouth.

Hua Qianxue, however, didn't even glance at Zhou'er. Her figure flashed, rushing towards Xu Yan.

Xu Yan, now barely clinging to life, had lost all combat ability.

If Hua Qianxue wished, killing him would be as easy as crushing an ant.

"No, Xu Yan, I've dragged you into this," Zhou'er's eyes were full of grief and guilt.

"Ha! Xu Yan, blame Ye Chen if you must. He's the one who got you killed.

This worthless person must have already been crushed by that Black Rhinoceros Great Demon. Let me send you down to reunite with him," Hua Qianxue taunted with a mocking expression, her right hand casually waving, sending pink petals flying towards Xu Yan like sharp flying sabers, intending to pierce Xu Yan's entire body.
