Chapter 352: This Is the Life I Want!
"Chen... Chen Yan."
High in the sky, San Jin was enveloped in golden light, her eyes brimming with tears of joy.
The experience in the third layer of the Dream Abyss would be the most unforgettable of her life.
If it were before, she absolutely could not have crossed an entire glacier by her own strength.
Her beautiful eyes shimmered, tears continuously overflowing, as she gazed deeply at the young man behind her.
"Thank you... thank you."
Equally excited was Cheng Zizhen.
The golden light reflected off the feathers on her cheeks, making them exceptionally beautiful.
She stretched out her arms, her jade-white hands appearing as if they were embracing the entire world.
The golden light was hazy, grand, and surging.
The golden light, coming from the distant Seeking Sun Tower, tore through the barrier between the third layer of the Dream Abyss and the outside world, intending to completely take Chen Yan and the others away from the malice.
Chen Yan's long robes fluttered, and at this moment, his entire being also radiated golden light, like a scorching sun burning, dispelling the endless malice.
This was the method he had devised to break the situation.
To lure Lu Xunyang and have Lu Xunyang take him away.
Under the almost unreasonable blockade of the Master of Hardened Refining, it was impossible to break the shackles by Chen Yan's strength alone.
The so-called difficulty of the college entrance examination would never be this high.
What Chen Yan faced was the coercion of an ancient Master of Martial Dao.
Above the mountain of corpses, the Master of Hardened Refining's expression turned somber.
He looked at the vast, uncountable corpses of Xue Qi beneath his feet, and looked at the boundless corpses within that glacier.
Corpses, corpses, all were corpses.
As a founding master, he had not enjoyed a single day of pleasure, nor had he lost his heart amidst revelry.
He had executed his own son, bringing glory to the descendants of the Xia clan, but also endless pain.
He sought day and night, never having truly been happy.
He was a lonely man, a tyrant, but also a pioneer and a transmitter of civilization.
However, the world did not understand him.
Just as it was now.
He was only a sliver of the Master of Hardened Refining's consciousness, but he also possessed the emotions of the Master of Hardened Refining.
"The world is all muddy, I alone am clear."
The old man murmured, his face full of sorrow, then stared fixedly at Chen Yan, who was moving further and further away from him:
"Little one, you are still very young; you have not yet birthed the heart of a powerhouse that a Master of Martial Dao should have.
You are too naive."
His voice drifted into the depths of Chen Yan's mind.
Chen Yan narrowed his eyes; his appearance was handsome and refined, his eyes now as dazzling as the scorching sun, his long hair burning with golden light, rolling wantonly amidst the wind and waves.
Chen Yan executed 【Heaven Patrol】, suddenly turning around in the high sky.
At this moment, the Realm of Words vibrated, and the Martial Dao meridians were also vibrating.
An extremely intense feeling was born in the depths of Chen Yan's heart.
"Master Xia, you have gone too far."
Lu Xunyang's cold voice rang out.
The golden light on Chen Yan's body erupted continuously, carrying Chen Yan away from the glacier.
Beneath Chen Yan's feet, mountains appeared, and a vast earth appeared.
But he had not returned to the real world.
Behind Chen Yan, endless darkness chased continuously, wanting to pull Chen Yan back into the third layer of the Dream Abyss.
Master Xia was unwilling to let go.
Chen Yan's eyes became incomparably cold.
The Master of Hardened Refining wanted to change Chen Yan's will and interfere with the process of Chen Yan creating his Martial Dao.
Chen Yan did not like it.
Because the Path of Will was different from the other three great Martial Daos from the very beginning.
Will can grind away malice, rather than avoiding malice.
In this world, no one understood the Path of Will better than Chen Yan.
But Master Xia did not want Chen Yan to go off and create the Path of Will on his own.
He was unwilling to let go.
Above the desolate earth.
The mountains were vast, and the roars of beasts were constant all around.
San Jin and Cheng Zizhen appeared on a mountain peak, looking nervously at the distant sky.
Within their line of sight, only the upper body of Chen Yan from the real world appeared, while his lower body was not within this world.
Chen Yan was enveloped in golden light, his speed extremely fast, covering a thousand meters in an instant.
But the lower body left in the third layer of the Dream Abyss could never struggle free.
Until a certain moment.
Chen Yan's entire body disappeared from the real world.
The gray and dark third layer of the Dream Abyss.
This place is endlessly gray and dark, as if a layer of night curtain is shrouding the heavens and the earth.
Rolling malice wraps around Chen Yan's body.
Chen Yan has already left the glacier and left the old man.
But he still hasn't been brought out of the third layer of the Dream Abyss by Lu Xunyang.
"Lu Xunyang, you have lost!!!"
A loud, cold laugh full of vicissitudes resounds from an infinitely distant place behind Chen Yan.
It is the voice of the Xia Lord.
Chen Yan's expression turns ugly.
The Xia Lord is determined to interfere with his Will Martial Dao!
What should be done?
Chen Yan's expression is very calm, but deep in his brain, he is constantly thinking of countermeasures.
"Go north."
Lu Xunyang's voice suddenly arrives.
Within the gray and dark world.
A golden light condenses, turning into a middle-aged man with short white hair.
This middle-aged man looks ordinary, but his features are sharp as if carved by a knife, and his eyes are imposing without anger.
He looks at Chen Yan:
"All problems are because your strength is too weak.
Go to the Xunyang Tower and break through to the two hundred and fifty-second floor."
He wears white clothes, but he has no ethereal Immortal Dao temperament; instead, he is transcendent, extremely domineering and murderous.
It is as if the one standing in the high sky is not a person at all, but a white-clothed god of slaughter.
"I cannot save you, but you can save yourself."
Lu Xunyang says, his body glowing, refined and illustrious.
He instantly flies toward the rear of Chen Yan.
Roar!
A heaven-shaking and earth-shattering roar resounds.
Behind Chen Yan, within the glacier, a boundless and massive giant bursts through the glacial water and stands up.
Its posture is magnificent, like a jade pillar of Mount Kun; as it stands, the glacial water falls from its body like a torrential waterfall.
Its torso pierces the firmament; what spans the heavens and earth are merely its two feet.
The earth shakes, and waves of soil roll.
Chen Yan looks up at the top of his head.
Five fingertips with clear fingerprints, like crisscrossing mountain peaks, pierce through the firmament from top to bottom, pressing down toward him.
These fingers are vast and boundless, scattering the clouds.
Above the clouds, two great suns draw closer and closer, intending to destroy the firmament.
Those are the giant's eyes; flames and flowing light stream from the corners of its eyes, turning into red flowing clouds in the sky.
At this very moment, Lu Xunyang's avatar instantly shoots upward, raising his fist to explode with the brilliance of a scorching sun, a long trail of white air waves rushing toward the high heavens.
A terrifying battle.
Chen Yan has no heart to watch the battle behind him; at this moment, pitch-black thunder erupts all over his body, golden light disperses, and he exerts his strongest speed to fly toward the north.
This is Lu Xunyang buying time for him.
Chen Yan's eyes widen.
The Lu Xunyang and Xia Lord remaining here are both strands of consciousness from their true bodies.
But even this consciousness is so powerful!
It makes one unable to produce even a shred of the intent to fight.
Chen Yan's long hair billows, intertwined with pitch-black thunder and golden light, becoming crystal clear.
At this moment, he is flying rapidly with his back to the battle behind him.
But there is no fear or panic in his eyes.
Instead...
Excitement!
"So strong!"
Chen Yan laughs loudly.
As the Master of Martial Dao, he looks down upon the masses, but only at this moment has he truly witnessed a battle of the strong.
If Lu Xunyang's true body were to come, how powerful would that be?!
Rumble!
A heaven-shaking battle erupts.
Within the world of the third layer of the Dream Abyss.
Fire is like a sea, pouring down from the azure sky, like a raging tide of flames, surging and magnificent.
Pillars of fire slam into the earth, destroying everything in all directions.
Great mountains collapse under this violent power.
The crashing sound, like thunderous force, shakes the universe.
The earth is being destroyed, and the world is being overturned.
Chen Yan sped across the constantly crumbling earth, his expression ecstatic.
"I must, I must become as powerful as them!!!"
Chen Yan roared inwardly.
He suddenly realized that everything he had experienced before was just child's play.
It was all nothing more than that!
So what if one is the Master of Martial Dao? Are they not still weak?
If he wants to renew the sun and moon, he must possess the great power to change heaven and earth!
"Chen Yan!"
The voice of the Xia Lord rang out from afar, carrying anger.
"Hahahaha!!!"
Chen Yan laughed loudly:
"You are the Founding Lord, and I am naturally grateful to you, but you are also the Master of Martial Dao, so I have no obligation to obey you!"
Chen Yan's hair flew as he laughed with unrestrained high spirits:
"Keep your cage for yourself; I am leaving!"
He soared between heaven and earth, his heart incomparably excited.
To fight with men!
To fight with the Founding Lord!
To fight with Martial Dao!
How truly gratifying.
Is he suffering?
"No!"
Chen Yan's expression was like jade, his body blooming with pitch-black thunder and golden light erupting; as he flew over the earth, the rolling air waves tore the ground apart.
"This is the life I want!"
"Hahahaha!!!"
Lu Xunyang's loud laughter rang out:
"I told you to go to the Sun-Seeking Tower earlier, but you wouldn't go; regret it now, don't you?"
Chen Yan laughed heartily.
He charged forward all the way.
The tip of a golden tower emerged from above the horizon, and as Chen Yan sped along, the giant tower appeared within his line of sight.
Boundlessly tall and supremely magnificent.
