Supreme Lord of Towers

The Candidate Saint Son, Ouyang Xue naturally understood what that represented.

Only a peerless genius who had stepped into the Profound Pill Realm was qualified to assume the role of a Candidate Saint Son of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

Therefore, this Zhou Hong before him, his cultivation had undoubtedly reached the Profound Pill Realm, far surpassing Zhang Sect by who knew how many times.

As for Ye Chen's cultivation, it was merely at the Divine Mansion Realm Sixth Layer; even if he had comprehended the Fourth Realm of True Intent, he absolutely could not defeat Zhou Hong.

If Ye Chen did not leave now, he would undoubtedly be directly suppressed by the opponent.

"No worries, just a Candidate Saint Son; it's not like I haven't killed one before." Ye Chen's expression was calm, like a still pond, as he smiled and transmitted a message to Ouyang Xue.

"What? You've killed a Candidate Saint Son?" Ouyang Xue's slender body trembled suddenly, hardly believing her ears.

"Ye Chen, someone like you, a waste, doesn't deserve for me to personally take action. However, you are simply too arrogant. If I don't teach you a lesson today, where is the dignity of Azure Sky Peak?" Zhou Hong raised his head high, hands behind his back, gazing at Ye Chen with a cold eye, as if he were merely a small ant to be crushed at will.

Rumble!

The next moment, an extremely violent mana surged out from inside him, causing the surrounding void to shake.

As a Candidate Saint Son of Azure Sky Peak, his Qi Sea Foundation had reached six times that of a typical cultivator, possessing a mana of ten million tiger's strength.

This mana alone was enough to easily crush most Divine Mansion Realm cultivators.

"So strong, Senior Brother Zhou Hong's mana is simply too powerful."

"Even if this waste has a Qi Sea Foundation of nine times, so what? It can never make up for the gap between their cultivation levels."

"I really want to see what this waste will use to contend against Senior Brother Zhou Hong." Zhang Sect and others sneered coldly, their lips filled with a thick mockery, watching with amusement.

Yes!

Ye Chen is indeed strong.

But compared to Zhou Hong, his mana was pitifully lacking in comparison.

Moreover, as a genuine of the Profound Pill Realm, Zhou Hong had also comprehended the Fourth Realm of True Intent.

Ye Chen's proud advantage immediately disappeared in front of Zhou Hong.

What would he use to fight Zhou Hong?

"One move, I'll suppress this waste in just one move." Zhou Hong said with extreme disdain.

Crackle!

The next moment, terrifying purple lightning surged out of Zhou Hong's body, forming an immensely large Thunder Ball above his head.

This Thunder Ball emitted a power so terrifying it seemed it could destroy all things, pressing down so heavily that everyone felt suffocated.

"Thunder Strike True Intent, this is the Thunder Strike True Intent that Senior Brother Zhou Hong has cultivated."

"For Ye Chen to be defeated by Senior Brother Zhou Hong's Thunder Strike True Intent is something to be proud of." The disciples of Azure Sky Peak were all extremely excited.

Thunder Strike True Intent was of the Lower Grade Earth Level True Intent, and Zhou Hong had cultivated it to the Fourth Realm of True Intent.

He relied on this True Intent to elevate his cultivation to the Profound Pill Realm.

Usually, only when facing a genuine Profound Pill Realm expert would Zhou Hong deploy this True Intent.

But now, he intended to use this True Intent to suppress Ye Chen.

This was undoubtedly a great honor for Ye Chen.

"Waste, kneel and beg for mercy while there's still time, or I fear I might accidentally use too much force and kill you. Don't regret it then." Zhou Hong sneered.

The power of Thunder Strike True Intent was not something to joke about.

Not to mention the Divine Mansion Realm cultivators, even ordinary Profound Pill Realm experts could be easily killed by it.

So, if Ye Chen continued to persist in his ignorance, he was destined to pay a painful price for his foolishness.

"Tricks of the trade, and you dare display them before me? You overestimate yourself." Unexpectedly, not only was Ye Chen unfazed by Zhou Hong's Thunder Strike True Intent, but there was a thick disdain in his smile.

"Is that so? Since you seek death, I shall fulfill your wish." Zhou Hong's expression turned sinister, deadly cold light shooting from his eyes.

For a mere Divine Mansion Realm Sixth Layer ant to dare underestimate him, he must be tired of living.

Today, he would make Ye Chen understand how foolish and ignorant he truly was.

Rumble.

The next moment, the Thunder Ball suspended above Zhou Hong's head plummeted like a terrifying small planet, bearing down on Ye Chen at incredible speed, causing the air to explode as it passed.

In the blink of an eye, it reached Ye Chen, ready to turn him into ashes.

It must be said, Zhou Hong's killing technique was indeed formidable, its power exceeding twenty million tiger's strength.

Even the Black Rhinoceros Great Demon would be injured if struck.

However, Ye Chen showed no concern towards it.

Swish!

Just as the Thunder Ball was about to hit Ye Chen, his body vanished from its original spot.

At that moment, he unleashed the full power of his Perfect Body, his speed instantly multiplied several times, effortlessly dodging the Thunder Ball.

With a thunderous bang.

In an instant, the Thunder Ball struck Ye Chen's afterimage, resulting in an unbelievably terrifying explosion, filling the surrounding hundreds of meters with menacing lightning.

Any of these lightning strikes could kill weak Divine Mansion Realm cultivators.

Among the powerful figures present, none could withstand it.

"Is Ye Chen dead?"

"Humph! Even if he isn't dead, he's surely crippled. This is exactly the consequence of his own actions."

"Exactly, this kind of overconfident waste deserves no sympathy. It's all his own doing." The observing cultivators chimed in gleefully.

"No, Ye Chen." Ouyang Xue's slender body trembled, her face turning paler than a corpse.

Before the battle between Ye Chen and Zhou Hong, she and Zhou Ba had been moved to a safe area by Ye Chen, thus avoiding the Thunder Ball's impact.

However, at this moment, her heart plummeted to rock bottom.

If anything happened to Ye Chen, what would she do in the future?

"Ha! This waste is nothing more than this; Senior Brother Zhou Hong could easily crush him with one move. To think he dared to cause trouble at Azure Sky Peak, where did he get his courage?" Yue Linglong couldn't help but sneer, her mouth filled with ridicule.

"What? My attack was actually dodged by him, how is this possible?" Just when everyone thought Ye Chen had been hit by Zhou Hong's killing technique, Zhou Hong's pupils suddenly contracted, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

He saw Ye Chen's figure, somehow already appearing above his head, looking completely unharmed.

This confirmed he hadn't been hit by Zhou Hong's Thunder Strike True Intent.

"No, that's impossible?" Zhang Sect and others, their smiles instantly froze, staring at Ye Chen like they had seen a ghost.

One must know, in addition to its tremendous power, Zhou Hong's Thunder Strike True Intent was astonishingly fast.

Even for a Profound Pill Realm expert, avoiding it wasn't easy.

Yet Ye Chen dodged it in great secrecy.

How did he manage to do it?
