Dominating Sword Immortal - Chapter 658

Chapter 658: 658

Hearing what Ye Chen had just said and seeing Gao Changtian’s attitude, a lot of people started to accept what had just happened . Indeed, the title of Sword Master would need someone to bear it . If no one dared to, then there would always be a Sword Master missing . Ye Chen taking this title would not be as simple as they had imagined . Of course, not many people thought this way; most of them did not think of him as worthy . They all thought that it would only take months for him to end up being the joke of the world, and a lesson for all young warriors .

“Ye Chen, the battle between you and I is not over yet . I will battle with you another day . ” Du Gujue did not set a time . It would be meaningless, since the competition between them would not be just of one or two days, neither one or two years . If he managed to catch up with Ye Chen, then naturally there would be another battle . If he could not, then it would mean nothing . On the other hand, if they got caught up by the others, then it would be the same .

What he had not expected was that when they met again would already be years later .

As Du Gujue had left, more and more people decided to leave as well . But before they did, they suddenly remembered that the reason that the whole place was packed with people was because Bai Wuxue and Xia Houzun had a battle here one year ago, and this year, there was also Du Gujue and Ye Chen . What about the next year?

“Let’s go!” Bai Wuxue and Lu Shaoyou left one after another .

“Ye Chen, let’s catch up when you have time . ” Hai Wuya and Yan Fengfeng greeted him before they left as well .

Moments later, the Nine Dragon Lake had gone quiet .

Li Daoxuan and the other two came to the mountain that Ye Chen was on and the former said with a laugh, “Ye Chen, long time no see!”

Ye Chen smiled and said, “Indeed long time no see! Time really flew by!”

“Time goes so fast . Luckily, we have all made it into the Sea of Souls Realm, so our appearance will not change for at least another couple of decades . ”

Ye Chen smiled again .

Time was cruel and invincible . Only with cultivation might one be able to seize the beautiful moments of life for a bit longer . But even then, they could only have a couple of decades more . When Ye Chen first ran into Li Daoxuan and the other in the Hidden Dragon Match, it was already eight years ago . Within a blink of an eye, time had flown by .

“After eight years, although our appearance did not change, our minds have . Regardless, I am glad that I have met you, Ye Chen . With you appearing, our lives changed drastically . ” It was Yan Chihuo who was talking . Eight years ago, he would have never said such a thing because he was young and reckless, and feared failures . But after eight years, he had changed a lot . His perception of things had changed as well . Ye Chen’s appearance had not only not silenced them, but somehow also inspired them to be more powerful .

“Brother Yan is right . But, besides the appearance, the only thing that did not really change was you, Ye Chen . You are still so bright and shining . Ah right, we should start to address you as Sword Master . ”

Bing Ling smiled, which was extremely rare for her . She looked beautiful under the sunshine like an ice flower under the sun .

Ye Chen smiled politely, “Are you guys planning to stay in the Sky Martial Region for a while?”

“Indeed! We have just arrived in the region, so it is rather new to us . We plan to travel around here for a while . ” Li Daoxuan nodded .

Ye Chen said, “Hai Wuya and Yan Fengfeng are quite nice . If you guys run into them, just tell them that you are my friends . As for me, I will head back to the South Rudra Region now . ”

“Alright!”

The three did not try to stop Ye Chen . The more friends they had out there in a foreign region, the better of course .

“Then I will take off now . You guys be careful!”

As he waved his hands in the air, the flying puppet was thrown out . Ye Chen jumped up and turned into a beam of flowy light, disappearing in the horizon .

“We are here and he is gone . ” Li Daoxuan sighed .

For the three of them, the Sky Martial Region was still rather new, a new start for them basically . But for Ye Chen, it was already so old that there was nothing left for him to learn . He had everything he needed .

…

On the way back to the South Rudra Region, Ye Chen would have to pass through the Turtle Mountain .

Shoo!

A beam of light shot through, traveling extremely quickly .

“Ye Chen, I have been waiting for you for a long time now . ” It was right then that a figure jumped up into the sky, blocking in front of the flying puppet . It was a man in gold robes and tied up hair . It was indeed Xia Houzun!

The flying puppet flapped its wings, slowing down its body . On the back of the puppet, Ye Chen stood up while staring at Xia Houzun and said, “If I have guessed it right, you have trained your Void Shattering Finger to completion, right? Otherwise you would not have come to challenge me . ”

The Void Shattering Finger Art was a low rank profound martial art because it contained the space profound, which was more powerful than normal mid rank profound martial arts . So far, Ye Chen had also trained his to ninety-nine percent as well . Of course, that last bit was the hardest part . Without full understanding the space profound, it would be almost impossible to make progress .

“You have guessed it right! Therefore, you have to lose!” Xia Houzun had a golden light shining around his body, and his aura was aggressively powerful .

Ye Chen shook his head, “Earlier on, you might have had some hope of winning against me . But right now, you have zero chance, because you would not even dare to challenge me in front of others . I think this is why you have been waiting for me this whole time, right?”

Xia Houzun’s face dimmed down .

“Alright, since you are this confident, then bring it on!” Ye Chen put away his flying puppet, his palm holding the sword .

“Falling Star Finger!”

Xia Houzun did not want to talk to Ye Chen anymore as he performed one of his most powerful attacks right in the beginning . After half a year in closed-up training, Xia Houzun had made drastic progress, and not just in his space profound . Right then, his Falling Star Finger Attack was nothing different from a real star shower . It brought out swaths of explosion while sparks splashed everywhere .

“Break!”

Taking out his Thunder Disaster Sword, Ye Chen held it with both of his hands and then waved down casually, but without any hesitation . That powerful sword aura seemed invincible .

Boom!

A huge area of falling star rain was shattered as that powerful sword qi created a black tunnel within his opponent’s attack, reaching all the way to Xia Houzun even .

“This sword movement?” Xia Houzun looked confused as he pointed out his finger to shatter that sword qi .

“Gold Pattern!”

Ye Chen flew over as his clothes danced in the air, looking like someone out of the world . He waved out another sword attack, and that powerful gold pattern spread out at an extreme speed .

“Impossible! How could his sword aura be this powerful?”

Xia Houzun threw out three attacks of Comet Finger before managing to tear apart the gold pattern attack . That aggressive exploding power pushed him back for dozens of steps .

“Nothing is impossible . I have gotten the title of Sword Master, and my mind and spirit have started to evolve as well . At the same time, you are hiding from everyone, hiding the fact that you have lost to me before . Right now, all you are relying on is the fact that you managed to complete you Void Shattering Finger Art . Besides that, you have nothing . ”

After accepting the Sword Master title, Ye Chen could vaguely feel that he had gotten stronger . It was not the kind of external power; instead, it was the kind that one could feel inside . Perhaps it could not be manifested out, but it could give him the confidence to feel more powerful like the sun in the sky . On the contrary, Xia Houzun had been affected by Ye Chen’s sword aura, so he had lost the upper hand already . Perhaps he could still use one hundred percent of his power, but he would not be able to reach his full limit .

The smallest flaws would be expanded in the battles between top warriors . Xia Houzun was not strong enough mentally; therefore, Ye Chen’s power was able to obtain the upper hand .

“Sword Master title? Stop joking around! Who do you think you are? Do you think the title Sword Master is for everyone? In front of me, you are nothing . ” Xie Houzun roared as that golden light of his shone even brighter, like a golden sun that rose up slowly . He stood from above, pointing out his finger at Ye Chen . Behind him, that emperor figure shadow appeared out of nowhere . It was so powerful that the sky seemed to have been frozen as well .

“You are already not my rightful opponent, and neither will you ever be in the future…Thunder Devour!”

Ye Chen shot out into the sky, flying even higher than Xia Houzun . Those long black hair of his danced in the air and a sharp sword qi surrounded him, shattering all of the qi field around him . He yelled quietly as if he was the owner of all the swords .

With that, thunder and lightning gathered at the tip of the sword before he waved it down eventually .

Crack!

That silver thunder ball fell from the sky, drawing a silver route in the air as it pointed right at Xia Houzun .

Boom!

The Emperor finger power was shattered and the shadow behind Xia Houzun exploded . As the mirror like shadow had been shattered, the figure twisted before being torn completely . Xia Houzun had been affected by it as well, and he could no longer help but puke out a small chunk of blood .

“Damn…the Void Shattering Finger!”

XIe Houzun was extremely frustrated . He planed to get close to Ye Chen before performing his powerful Void Shattering Finger . But right now, he did not even have the power to get close to him at all . That sword qi of the latter was so powerful that the air started to shake after the sword attack had been thrown, which boiled up his blood and qi .

Shoo!

The Gold Void Shattering Finger Power could ignore the distance as it arrived right in front of Ye Chen . Even with the sword aura created by Ye Chen from before, he had no choice but to admit that the Void Shattering Finger was extraordinarily powerful . If it were some other martial art or attack containing the same profound, Xie Houzun would never be that powerful .

The gold pattern had spread out in the whole area . As the Void Shattering Finger Power entered the pattern, it was not shattered or disappeared on its own . It was so dense that the gold pattern itself was being affected and vaguely pushed to the side .

“Spiritual Sword!”

At that moment, Ye Chen turned around like a gentle bird in the air . Flying in the air, he twisted his wrist a little and a silver mark landed on Xia Houzun’s chest .

Chin!

Sparks flew everywhere as Xia Houzun was blown backward .

“You managed to avoid my Void Shattering Finger . But it is okay . I already have a semi extreme shield . It will be impossible for you to wound me . ”

Xia Houzun was shocked first before cracking out in laughter . That semi extreme rank shield on him came from a Great Master . With it, his defense was more than doubled . Added with that powerful defensive profound art he had trained, he was able to block out seventy percent of Ye Chen’s sword qi . Only about five percent of that remaining thirty percent would make it through eventually, if lucky .

“Gold Fury!”

Ye Chen’s expression stayed the same as he slashed out his longsword . That twisted gold pattern in the air was stretched out before landing on Xia Houzun’s semi extreme rank defense shield .

Crack!

A metal exploding sound was heard, while Xia Houzun looked like he had just swallowed a goose egg . His eyes popped out a bit and blood spilled down from his face . That heavy wind blew him all the way away onto a nine thousand meters tall mountain peak, chipping the tip off a bit .

“Isn’t that Ye Chen and Xia Houzun?” A Sea of Souls Realm warrior who was traveling past had a shocked expression on his face, “Haha! I am so lucky! I cannot believe that I got to see this . I bet a lot of people would not know that Xia Hozun lost to Ye Chen . ”
