Primordial Star Scripture

Whoosh!

This result caused everyone watching outside the arena to stand up.

Countless true disciples had their mouths wide open, utterly disbelieving.

How many moves was that? Ye Chen had directly defeated Zhao Xuan, who was ranked eighth in the Spirit Ranking?

"This, this…" Many were at a loss for words to express the shock in their hearts.

Hundreds of zhang above the True Inheritance Battle Platform, in the void, the master of Fire Cloud Peak was also full of astonishment, "It's been just over two months since the selection for true disciples. Has Ye Chen improved again?"

"Sword Formation, he has actually learned the art of Sword Formation in these two months!"

"And his special True Qi has also undergone another qualitative improvement!"

Although Ye Chen's defeat of Zhao Xuan was partly due to Zhao's carelessness, as Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses in the void, they could see more clearly than anyone. Even if Zhao Xuan had been extremely cautious, or even if he had delayed for a bit longer, he would have been genuinely defeated by Ye Chen.

Zhao Xuan at this level was no longer a match for Ye Chen!

"Prodigy!"

"A true prodigy!"

"Jia Luo, you've found a great seedling for our Taixuan Sect. With Ye Chen's speed of cultivation, as long as he can continue to grow, he will completely be on par with the geniuses of the three great dynasties' major sects in the Central Region! He can even compare with those hidden Ancient Clan geniuses!"

"Could it be that our Taixuan Sect will also produce a heaven-defying genius?!"

The Peak Masters and Elders were all overjoyed.

Another Peak Master said, "Growth, I hope Ye Chen can continue to grow! With his current strength, he probably really can exchange blows with a Half-Step Rotating Pill now. Next, only the battle between Xue Jia and Ye Chen will truly be meaningful!"

"Fight a Half-Step Rotating Pill?" Many Elders felt a chill in their hearts, "I'm afraid it's still not possible. Defeating Zhao Xuan and a few others is feasible, but defeating a Half-Step Rotating Pill, now that's truly difficult."

Fairy Jia Luo at this moment also looked at Ye Chen below more seriously.

Because she knew that with such a performance from Ye Chen, that Half-Step Rotating Pill disciple, Xue Jia, would definitely be unable to hold back.

Sure enough, on the True Inheritance Battle Platform in the void, when Ye Chen knocked Zhao Xuan off the platform and the crowd erupted, Wang Mao, Chen Xing, and Lu Yuan, all their complexions changed greatly.

The three of them had a bit more strength than Zhao Xuan, but they also couldn't defeat Zhao Xuan as quickly as Ye Chen did!

The strength displayed by Ye Chen even gave them the feeling as if they were facing a Half-Step Rotating Pill powerhouse.

As the three were hesitating over who should fight next, Xue Jia, who had been waiting at the side of the True Inheritance Battle Platform in the void, moved. He appeared on the platform in an instant.

"I'll do it."

Landing on the True Inheritance Battle Platform, Xue Jia directly spoke out.

Hum!

Seeing Xue Jia directly step past the three and face Ye Chen, all the watching true disciples screamed.

"Half-Step Rotating Pill!"

"Xue Jia, who has reached the Half-Step Rotating Pill Realm, finally can't hold back and is making his move!"

Many true disciples came to watch precisely to see Xue Jia, a Half-Step Rotating Pill, in action. Now that Ye Chen had just defeated a Spirit Ranking powerhouse and forced Xue Jia to step up, it naturally made countless people excitedly scream.

Even if Ye Chen was strong, facing Xue Jia, he would probably not fare well.

They were finally going to witness a real grand battle!

In the Snowdrift Peak area, when Ye Chen defeated Zhao Xuan, all the female disciples of Snowdrift Peak were overjoyed, but when Xue Jia arrived at the Battle Platform, the excitement on the faces of the female disciples came to a halt.

As one of the only two Half-Step Rotating Pill disciples of the Taixuan Sect, the female disciples of Snowdrift Peak naturally recognized Xue Jia, and they were aware of his strength!

In the entire true disciple rank, only the ever-dominant Jin Lieyang, who topped the Spirit Ranking, could suppress Xue Jia.

All the female disciples understood even better that with Xue Jia's strength as a Half-Step Rotating Pill, even if he could not step into the Rotating Pill Realm, once he left the sect, he would definitely become a formidable figure.

Such a person was about to battle Ye Chen, naturally causing them to worry greatly about him.

"Ye Chen."

Among the female disciples, Jiang Yao's eyes were already full of concern.

A Half-Step Rotating Pill was too powerful. Given some more time, Jiang Yao believed that Ye Chen would definitely be able to defeat a Half-Step Rotating Pill, but now, in terms of cultivation time, Ye Chen was still at a huge disadvantage.

"The Half-Step Rotating Pill, Xue Jia." Yu, who came to the True Inheritance Battle area to watch, also became serious, "When I stepped into the late Spirit Sea Realm, he was already a Half-Step Rotating Pill powerhouse."

"Moreover, I heard that he has cultivated an Earth Grade intermediate cultivation technique. Ye Chen has not yet cultivated my fifth and sixth Sword Formations. To deal with Xue Jia, he will probably suffer a great disadvantage in terms of martial skills."

Amidst everyone's worries, Ye Chen looked at Xue Jia who had come up to the Battle Platform.

His gaze also became serious.

"Brother Xue Jia, you finally decided to make a move," Ye Chen said to Xue Jia with a faint smile, "Although I don't know if I can defeat you, I will fight with all my strength!"

"I hope you, too, will use all your strength!"

Whoosh!

Ye Chen's words once again stirred everyone up.

Certainly, from Ye Chen's words, it could be heard that even he wasn't sure he could defeat Xue Jia.

But even so, Ye Chen did not hesitate to agree to the bout with Xue Jia, and he even asked Xue Jia to fight with full force. This showed that Ye Chen wanted to experience a true grand battle.

Everyone began to applaud Ye Chen in their hearts for his words.

Fearless before the strong!

No excuses to shrink back and evade!

Even in defeat, to be bested only by absolute strength!

This is the true temperament of a genius, this is why Ye Chen could always grow stronger and continue to ascend!

By daring to engage in combat, one can travel further!

Even Zhao Xuan, who had been knocked off the True Inheritance Battle Platform by Ye Chen and had flown back into the fray, began to hold Ye Chen in even higher esteem for his fearless demeanor in the face of Xue Jia.

Wang Mao, Chen Xing, and Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Ye Chen, we are far inferior to you in terms of sheer boldness. In the previous moment, we didn't even dare to make a move to challenge him, yet here he is, nonchalantly facing Xue Jia. We truly feel ashamed."

"Regardless of whether Ye Chen wins or loses against Xue Jia, this time, Ye Chen, you have earned our admiration!"

In the midst of the True Inheritance Battle Platform, when Xue Jia heard Ye Chen asking him to go all out, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he laughed heartily, "Alright, Ye Chen, I will go all out!"

"I hope you will do the same!"

Boom!

As Xue Jia spoke, without any movement from him, a towering inferno over three hundred meters high suddenly burst forth from around his body!

This massive inferno, formed entirely of True Qi, somehow weaved within it the essence of thunder and lightning as it billowed ferociously.

Such tremendous True Qi, such strange essence—none of the Spirit Sea Realm disciples had ever seen it from another of their rank.

This was what only a warrior who had attempted the Rotating Pill Realm, a Half-Step Rotating Pill, could achieve!

Watching the enormous flames around Xue Jia, Ye Chen's gaze became extremely grave, finally no longer suppressing his own True Qi. With a "boom," the twelve Gang Yuan True Qi vortexes in his body shook wildly, and a vast, unparalleled silver Gang Yuan True Qi swept out around him.

This time, the Gang Yuan True Qi rose to a height of over one hundred and fifty meters. Although it was far less dense than Xue Jia's True Qi, within that one hundred and fifty meters of Gang Yuan True Qi, threads of golden light were distinctly mixed in.

This was unmistakably Ye Chen unleashing the techniques of both the Nine Transformation Fighting Body and the Gang Yuan True Qi.

On the True Inheritance Battle Platform, hundreds of Zhang apart, Ye Chen and Xue Jia faced each other with surging True Qi.

The next moment, both men surged forward simultaneously, each carrying a heavens-shaking Inferno of True Qi, and slammed fiercely into one another!

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen and Xue Jia collided in the void.

This collision sent a "boom" through the void, with endless waves of energy lashing out, even sweeping many Spirit Sea Realm disciples who were riding flying beasts hundreds of Zhang away!

Even those disciples standing in the void to watch the battle were forced to retreat explosively!

While everyone was affected by this explosive force, they all noticed that Ye Chen, after the collision, was sent flying backwards as if struck by a massive stone.

After tracing an arc in the sky, Ye Chen countered the force with his Gang Yuan True Qi and managed to just barely stop at the edge of the True Inheritance Battle Platform.

"Puh!"

In the end, when Ye Chen had completely withstood the force of the collision, he was actually struck by the rebound and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

By contrast, Xue Jia had not moved an inch from the spot he was in prior to the collision, showing no sign of being bounced back.

In this direct clash of True Qi, Xue Jia of Half-Step Rotating Pill clearly overpowered Ye Chen!

If it wasn't for Ye Chen's quick reaction, using True Qi to stop his flying momentum, he would have been smashed right out of the True Inheritance Battle Platform and lost the fight!

"Ye Chen!"

Jiang Yao called out worriedly upon seeing Ye Chen being struck and sent flying.

And the female disciples of Snowdrift Peak, seeing Ye Chen barely land on the edge of the battle platform and nearly defeated in one move, all screamed in fright.

As countless True Inheritance disciples marveled at the formidable power of Xue Jia, a Half-Step Rotating Pill, Xue Jia in the void looked toward Ye Chen, who had been knocked to the edge of the platform, and his eyes flickered, "Ye Chen, you asked me to go all out, don't tell me that's all you got!"

"If that's really the case, then, this fight, let's end it here!"

Boom!

As Xue Jia's voice echoed, he once again charged with a towering inferno over three hundred meters high from the void, slamming toward Ye Chen.

Ye Chen, now at the edge of the Battle Platform, would unquestionably be knocked off if struck by Xue Jia again!

"Lost, have I?"

"The always mysterious, invincible Ye Chen, is he finally about to lose?"

Just as everyone watched, in an instant, Xue Jia had already reached the spot where Ye Chen stood.

In that lightning-flash moment, everyone was shocked to discover that Ye Chen had vanished from his original location.

The next moment, Ye Chen suddenly appeared behind Xue Jia, and with a great grasp in the void, ninety-six Sword of True Qi appeared around his body.

These ninety-six Sword of True Qi emitted a killing force even more terrifying than the previous "Hidden Wind Sword Formation."

"The end?"

"It's not over just yet!"

With traces of blood still at the corner of his mouth, Ye Chen's voice remained remarkably calm. In that calmness, he suddenly released his grip, and the ninety-six Sword of True Qi charged toward Xue Jia's back with a thunderous roar.
