Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

Many of his fellow disciples were watching. How could he possibly tolerate being verbally humiliated by a mere Third Layer Spirit Sea Realm Demon Cultivator?

Especially after boasting to his Master. He absolutely could not let his Master down!

At this thought, Chen Yue unleashed his full power without holding anything back. A vast wave of Spiritual Power spread out, pressing down on Ye Chen!

"Die!"

His face was contorted with rage, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"How noisy."

Ye Chen's expression was placid. A golden Spiritual Sea surged forth, like a sky full of blazing golden flames, and instantly enveloped Chen Yue!

"Wh-what is this?!"

"Why do you have a golden Spiritual Sea?"

Chen Yue's expression changed. To his horror, he found that his attack, upon striking the phantom Spiritual Sea before him, simply vanished as if it had been swallowed by the ocean.

For a moment, a chilling sense of dread washed over him.

Only then did he realize he had picked a fight with the wrong person.

This Third Layer Spirit Sea Realm Demon Cultivator before him seemed to possess an unimaginable level of strength!

As the golden Spiritual Sea churned, Ye Chen struck out with his palm. The terrifying fluctuation of Spiritual Power nearly shook the very void.

'Not good!'

'Chen Yue is in danger!'

The stately woman watched this scene from a distance. A sudden realization dawned on her, and her expression began to change.

'How is this possible?'

'Even though Chen Yue hasn't broken through to the Primordial Mansion Realm, his cultivation is at the Peak of the Spirit Sea Realm.'

'How could he be unable to even handle a Third Layer Spirit Sea Realm Demon Cultivator?'

The stately woman's muttered words made the disciples beside her look up in astonishment.

Their perception was far inferior to hers, so none of them had sensed just how much danger Chen Yue was in.

BAM!

Seeing Ye Chen's figure rapidly grow larger before his eyes, Chen Yue's face paled. He hurriedly raised his arms, trying to defend himself.

'I'm at the Peak of the Spirit Sea Realm!'

'No matter how rampant you are, you Demon Cultivator, you can't possibly break through my defense!'

However, in the next moment, his arms snapped, flesh and bone bursting apart!

Ye Chen's palm, carrying a brilliant stream of light, brutally shattered his arms before striking him squarely in the chest.

At that moment, Ye Chen's expression was indifferent, like a banished immortal gracing the mortal world. His casual-looking palm strike obliterated every last shred of hope in Chen Yue's heart.

Chen Yue's eyes widened as his chest caved in.

He slammed heavily into the ground, blood spraying from his mouth. His life was extinguished on the spot!

The stately woman appeared before her disciple almost instantly. She gave him a quick, anxious glance before her expression turned completely ice-cold.

"How is he, Master?"

The other disciples rushed to her side and asked urgently.

"Chen Yue is dead."

The stately woman spoke, her tone chilling.

The disciples beside her paled instantly.

"Chen Yue… is actually dead?!"

"How is that possible? This Third Layer Spirit Sea Realm Demon Cultivator is that terrifying?"

Disbelief was etched on their faces, but it was quickly followed by a furious killing intent that erupted from their bodies!

"A mere Demon Cultivator dares to kill someone from our Feihong Academy! How unbelievably brazen!"

"Master, allow us to avenge Chen Yue!"

Agitated and furious, they all prepared to attack Ye Chen.

Ye Chen watched them with a calm expression, making no move to flee.

He had just been minding his own business, traveling, yet he was attacked for no reason.

At this moment, killing intent stirred in his heart as well!

"Wait!"

"You are no match for this boy!"

However, the stately woman stopped them, her words leaving them in disbelief.

'Master actually thinks we're no match for this Demon Cultivator?'

The disciples clenched their fists. Though enraged, they didn't dare to act rashly.

'Master wouldn't say something like that without reason.'

'The realm this Demon Cultivator is showing on the surface is most likely just a disguise!'

'Chen Yue ended up like this precisely because he underestimated him!'

"Boy, you hide your strength well."

The stately woman's gaze was scrutinizing as she looked at Ye Chen.

"You flatter me."

Ye Chen gave a faint smile.

"Hmph!"

"I'm not complimenting you."

The stately woman snorted coldly as an unusually terrifying aura began to surge around her.

Even the surrounding void seemed to tremble in response!

"You dared to kill someone from my Feihong Academy. In all of Lei Province, I'm afraid no one can save you now!"

Her robes fluttered though there was no wind, and within her eyes, a brilliant river of stars seemed to appear. Her aura was noble and elegant.

Ye Chen's brow furrowed slightly. He sensed a dangerous aura from the woman before him!

'To be able to train a disciple at the Ninth Layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, this stately woman is clearly no simple character!'

While Ye Chen was still sizing her up, a powerful wave of Spiritual Power suddenly poured from the woman's palm. Like a flowing galaxy, it rushed to envelop him.

Behind her, the phantom image of a Primordial Mansion appeared!

Sensing the Spiritual Power emanating from her, Ye Chen's expression shifted, and he grew extremely wary.

She was a Ninth Layer Primordial Mansion Realm expert!

And not just an ordinary one, either.

This stately woman was infinitely close to the Divinity Transformation Realm! She was more formidable than a typical Peak Primordial Mansion Cultivator; it was as if she already had one foot in the Divinity Transformation Realm.

'A Half-Step Divinity Transformation?'

Ye Chen's eyes flickered. Facing such a dangerous individual, he had to give it his full attention.

Seeing that the sky-spanning galaxy was about to swallow him whole, Ye Chen immediately executed the Wandering Dragon Step. His body moved like a phantom, and in an instant, he reappeared dozens of meters away, narrowly dodging the woman's terrifying attack.

"Such a profound Body Technique… It seems you hold many secrets."

Seeing Ye Chen dodge her attack, the stately woman couldn't help but voice her surprise.

As a senior instructor at Feihong Academy, her knowledge and experience were astounding.

She could tell with a single glance that the young man's Body Technique was far from simple.

'This is definitely not a Body Technique that could have originated in Lei Province.'

'This young man must have had an amazing stroke of fortune!'

At this thought, the stately woman stared intently at Ye Chen, a hint of interest appearing on her face.

"No wonder you could kill my disciple despite being in a lower realm."

"You truly are someone blessed with great fortune."

"Let me see just what secrets you're hiding!"

She took a step forward, her figure transforming into a streak of light as she flew toward Ye Chen.

Ye Chen's expression tightened. This was not the time to get entangled with a Half-Step Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator.

'I might not be able to defeat her, but if I want to run, she won't be able to stop me!'

Ye Chen gathered his power, preparing to use the Wandering Dragon Step to escape again.

But just at that moment, a beam of black light suddenly shot out from the distance, aimed directly at the stately woman!
