Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

BOOM!

A terrifying shockwave swept out.

The collision of Divinity Transformation Realm powers was earth-shattering, enough to change the very color of the sky.

However, Kunlun Mountain was always under the suppression of some strange power, so the resulting shockwave didn't cause too much of a disturbance.

Otherwise, back when Ye Chen fought Old Man Lin, who was also in the Divinity Transformation Realm, the commotion would have likely alerted the entire Kunlun Mountain.

"What?"

Seeing his attack so easily blocked, Yu Qingqi's pupils shrank as a sense of unease flashed through his heart.

'No wonder these guys have been so calm from the very beginning.'

'Even the name of my Yu family couldn't intimidate them.'

'They really do have a powerful trump card! To think they could even block a Divinity Transformation Realm attack!'

A wary look appeared on Yu Qingqi's face, and he immediately tried to retreat.

'I'll settle this score with them later!'

But just then, the dust and smoke ahead suddenly cleared. A dark golden figure shot forward like a meteor, arriving in front of Yu Qingqi in the blink of an eye.

Only then did Yu Qingqi get a clear look at the figure. It was a combat puppet!

The combat puppet was encased in a suit of black armor, and a powerful aura surged around it. The waves of Spiritual Power it invisibly emitted were no weaker than those of an ordinary Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator!

"They actually have such a powerful combat puppet!" Yu Qingqi's expression changed, and he immediately tried to flee.

However, since he had been the one to attack first, how could Ye Chen possibly let him go?

Amidst a surge of dark golden light, the puppet's fist shot forward, carrying an unrivaled power!

Yu Qingqi hastily tried to dodge, but in the next moment, a flash of sword light cut through the air. The deadly killing intent made his skin tighten, forcing him to halt his retreat.

"It's you?!" Yu Qingqi cried out in shock and anger.

He saw Ye Chen standing before him with a smile, blocking his path.

"Do you really think you can stop me?" Yu Qingqi said in a low voice.

"You should worry about how you're going to survive first," Ye Chen replied casually.

Yu Qingqi's expression changed. A terrifying power erupted behind him as the Profound Armor Combat Puppet launched another round of attacks!

"Damn it!"

Yu Qingqi quickly activated several Talismans. Explosions of Divinity Transformation Realm power erupted one after another, all landing on the Profound Armor Combat Puppet.

However, to Yu Qingqi's despair, the power of the Talismans couldn't harm the Profound Armor Combat Puppet at all. At most, they could only slow it down for a moment.

'This Profound Armor Combat Puppet is even stronger than I imagined!'

"In that case, I'll kill you first!"

Killing intent surged in Yu Qingqi's eyes. He suddenly thrust a palm toward Ye Chen, a terrifying aura swirling around him. His cultivation was already incredibly close to the Divinity Transformation Realm!

But he wasn't a true Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator in the end. Ye Chen stood his ground, not dodging at all. He brazenly threw a punch, his arm covered in a cyan light. Faintly, a clear dragon's roar seemed to echo between heaven and earth.

Seeing that the young man dared to meet his attack head-on, a flash of delight crossed Yu Qingqi's face.

'After all, I'm a Half-Step Divinity Transformation master, the most astonishing prodigy of the Yu family's current generation.'

'I'm just half a step away from becoming a true Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator and undergoing a stunning transformation.'

'This kid in front of me... it doesn't even look like he's reached the Primordial Mansion Realm, does he?'

'This palm strike will be enough to smash him into a bloody pulp on the spot!'

BOOM!

The two attacks collided, and a shocking shockwave swept out. But this time, Yu Qingqi's expression changed drastically.

As their attacks met, he didn't feel the overwhelming, crushing force he'd expected.

Although his opponent's cultivation was shallow, his strength was simply unbelievable. He had actually managed to block his attack head-on.

The powerful rebound force even sent his blood and qi into turmoil, and the muscles throughout his body went completely numb!

"Not good!"

In the instant Yu Qingqi was stunned, the Profound Armor Combat Puppet had already swung its fist again, smashing it down toward his head!

The Profound Armor Combat Puppet's current strength was enough to threaten even a Third Layer Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator!

Let alone Yu Qingqi, who hadn't even reached the Divinity Transformation Realm.

He threw out several Talismans in a row, trying in vain to block the puppet's attack, but he only managed to delay it for a moment.

The fist carried an unimaginable power, crashing down like a meteor from the heavens.

"No!"

Yu Qingqi had no time to escape. Pinned down by Ye Chen, he had no choice but to face the Profound Armor Combat Puppet's strike head-on.

The terrifying power, comparable to that of a Third Layer Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator, instantly washed over him, shattering the Spiritual Power around his body. Before he could even scream, he was smashed deep into the ground!

When the dust settled, Yu Qingqi was revealed. His clothes were in tatters, his body was drenched in blood, and his chest was caved in. It was impossible to tell how many bones were broken as he lay in the crater, his breathing faint.

His eyes were unfocused, and he periodically coughed up a large mouthful of blood. Just slightly moving his head seemed to aggravate all his injuries, twisting his face in agony.

"This punch is enough to injure a Third Layer Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator, yet it didn't kill you outright."

"It seems the disciples of great families truly have many ways to save their own skin."

Ye Chen shook his head, seemingly unsatisfied with this result.

"D-don't kill me..." Seeing Ye Chen's indifferent expression, a flicker of terror finally appeared in Yu Qingqi's eyes.

He forced his lips to move, using almost all of his remaining strength just to squeeze out a few words.

"I told you not to get any funny ideas."

"Otherwise, you would face consequences you couldn't possibly bear!"

Ye Chen's expression was cold, devoid of any sympathy for Yu Qingqi. "But you wouldn't listen. You insisted on courting death, so naturally, I have to oblige you."

Seeing the Profound Armor Combat Puppet move again, Yu Qingqi's heart trembled. He no longer had the strength to escape. This next blow would surely be fatal!

"I'm begging you... spare me! From this day forward, the grudge between the Yu family and you will be wiped clean!"

"But if you kill me... the Yu family will not let you go! You will never have a day of peace!"

Just as the Profound Armor Combat Puppet was about to strike, Yu Qingqi, as if in a final burst of energy before death, suddenly shuddered and clearly spat out a torrent of words.

However, Ye Chen's expression remained as indifferent as ever.

As Yu Qingqi watched, his heart sank into despair.

"Even now, you're still trying to threaten me?"

Ye Chen laughed. Without a hint of hesitation, he gave a mental command. The Profound Armor Combat Puppet immediately lifted its leg, which was as massive as a stone pillar, and stomped down on Yu Qingqi.

Just then, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from Yu Qingqi's body.
