Chapter 499: Proving the Dao with Life, a Mirror for the World to See the Future!

Beside him, Ji Hai's expression was also changing.

This person is a bit terrifying.

It is the first time seeing someone from the Chen clan toyed with to this extent.

At the same time.

Creak, creak!

The sound of Chen Yunyou gritting his teeth rang out incessantly.

Yet he saw that Bing Yi had already turned around, his slender back gradually obscured by the firelight of the Eight Phases Map of the Burning City.

"You really should train your brain more."

A cold and mocking voice rang out.

Chen Yan extended a hand and, with a *snap*, clicked his fingers.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!!!!

A thunderous roar shattered the horizon; inside the Eight Phases Map of the Burning City, the firelight exploded instantly, and the scorching radiance illuminated the surroundings.

Chen Yan walked slowly until he reached a building, rose gently into the air, stopped at the highest level, and a trace of a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"Bing Yi!"

A howl like that of ghosts and wolves resounded.

A large hand, stained with blood and resembling a ghost's claw, instantly tore through the firelight; Chen Yunyou, like a frenzied beast, was utterly mad as he charged to kill Chen Yan.

He had gone mad, completely enraged.

"Can a mere Eight Phases Map of the Burning City stop me?" Chen Yunyou roared:

"What kind of thing is Lu Fukun!!!"

He bellowed and tore out with a claw; Chen Yan could not dodge in time and was caught in the wake of this strike.

Along with him, the buildings behind Chen Yan were also torn apart.

"Bing Yi!"

Lu Jianxia cried out in alarm and hurriedly flew over.

Chen Yunyou, dripping with blood and with a ferocious glint in his eyes, looked at the Bing Yi who had been knocked away and instantly suppressed him!

"You dare!" Lu Jianxia was cold to the extreme, a pair of silver eyes blooming with killing intent.

Immediately following, it turned into endless panic.

The current Bing Yi had long since lost the ability to fight Chen Yunyou to the death.

Facing the enraged Chen Yunyou, Bing Yi...

At this moment, Lu Jianxia's heart stopped beating.

"Get lost!" Chen Yunyou roared, striking out with a palm.

The next moment.

Bang!

A blade of light overflowing with malice instantly condensed, and a malicious entity wearing a tattered military uniform appeared, slashing a blade at Chen Yunyou's back.

With a loud boom!

Chen Yunyou was slashed by this blade, leaving a bloody mark; the next moment, his eyes trembled, and he looked on in disbelief.

Inside another shattered building not far away, another soldier holding a pitch-black handgun and overflowing with malice attacked.

Two malicious entities.

"This..." Chen Yunyou's body stiffened slightly, and the next moment he understood everything:

"You played me!!!"

He had been played.

Played by Bing Yi again.

The 【Eight Phases Map of the Burning City】 was merely bait, intended to make Chen Yunyou see that Bing Yi had revealed a flaw.

And the true trump card was these two malicious entities.

Why did these two malicious entities come to attack Chen Yunyou?

Because the buildings where these two malicious entities resided were exactly the same height as the 120th and 110th steps of the Brocade Palace.

Chen Yunyou had been the first to smash these two buildings and take action against these two malicious entities, so he was simultaneously regarded as a challenger by both.

"Damn it!"

Chen Yunyou growled.

With a bang.

A bullet burning with malice pierced the void, streaking toward Chen Yunyou, while the other blade-wielding malicious entity also slashed a blade down at Chen Yunyou.

Chen Yunyou threw a punch, but the fist imprint was pierced by that bullet and shattered.

Immediately after, Chen Yunyou dodged the blade light, but his cheek was struck by the incoming bullet, leaving a bloody mark.

Chen Yunyou was even more furious; these two malicious entities were not weak.

High in the sky in the distance, Chen Yan watched quietly.

He had long since discovered that the higher the step, the stronger the gatekeeper within the corresponding building.

Previously, when he arrived inside the 121st building, he had personally felt the aura of the gatekeeper within that building.

Chen Yan had given up directly at that time.

To defeat this gatekeeper, the price he would pay would be too high, and it would also instantly attract the attention of Chen Yunyou and the others above the Brocade Palace.

Earlier, Ji Chuxi had seen these two buildings directly from the steps of the Brocade Palace.

They were almost right next to each other.

Chen Yan had originally lured Chen Yunyou here only hoping the other party could shatter this Building No. 121.

He hadn't expected the other party's moves to be so powerful that even the nearby No. 110 was shattered.

To achieve this step, Chen Yan had specifically asked Lu Fukun to set up the 【Eight Phases of the Burning City Map】 at this location.

At the same time, he had also removed the blood-Qi chains above Building No. 121.

The purpose was to deceive Chen Yunyou.

What dealt the most damage to Chen Yunyou was the snap Chen Yan had just made, along with that one sentence he had spoken.

Clearly, Chen Yunyou had been truly angry back then, and not just a little bit.

At this moment, the aura on Chen Yunyou's body was constantly weakening; that terrifying tempered-body martial art clearly could not be maintained for long.

The other party was already heavily injured, and now, facing the siege of these two malicious entities, it looked like he would have his hands full.

At this moment.

High above the Ten Thousand Phases Island.

The auras of Chen Qi and the others shifted again and again.

Chi Xun and Ji Hai were also silent.

They had not expected Bing Yi to have calculated Chen Yunyou so thoroughly.

Most crucially, the information the other party possessed was too complete.

How did he do it?

Terrifying, mysterious.

It seemed Chen Yunyou was truly in dire straits now.

"Lu Clan!" Chen Qi transmitted his voice:

"And the Chi Clan, what are you trying to do?!"

Chen Qi was furious.

Bing Yi's schemes were indeed terrifying.

But the assistance of Chi Yuexi and Lu Fukun was also key!

It was hard to imagine what kind of mood Chen Qi was in now; he even had to worry about Chen Yunyou's life.

"I don't know," Chi Xun said, he was also puzzled.

Soon, Chi Yuexi's message arrived:

"Both Lu Fukun and I were controlled by Bing Yi using explosive formation disks..."

Chi Xun spread his hands:

"Chi Yuexi was forced into it, but Chen Yunyou really didn't intend to leave this child Yuexi alive; her leg was blown off."

Chen Qi's face turned gloomy:

"Lu Jianxia, help him!"

Lu Jianxia's body paused, then he said coldly:

"Do you think that's possible?"

Chen Qi gritted his teeth.

"I don't need it!!!"

Chen Yunyou roared, he sent the blade-wielding malicious entity flying with one punch, furious beyond measure.

He was angry to the extreme.

At the same time.

Chen Yan walked below, and in the ruins where Building No. 121 and Building No. 110 had already shattered, he found an explosive formation disk and a cyan iron plaque in each, then stored them into his own origin space.

Clatter, clatter!!!

Divine chains struck out; it was Ji Chuxi, but upon seeing that Bing Yi had already taken the explosive formation disk into his origin space a step ahead, Ji Chuxi retracted the divine chains.

He looked at Chen Yan and said with a forced smile:

"Brother Bing Yi, what exactly is your situation right now?"

Ji Chuxi was furious inside; he also hadn't expected such a turn of events to occur.

He had already prepared a set of divine chains for everyone on the Jinzhi Palace, but Bing Yi had intervened.

Bing Yi was not simple.

His current state was neither human nor non-human, making it impossible for Ji Chuxi to see through him.

And seeing Chen Yunyou's miserable state, Ji Chuxi temporarily set aside the idea of being enemies with Bing Yi.

However, once rewards were involved, if he had to make an enemy, then so be it.

If you don't go and snatch them, would the opportunity come running to you?

It was also at this time.

Chen Yan walked in front of Ji Chuxi, and Ji Chuxi smiled gently and stepped back two paces.

Hm?

Why did I step back?

Ji Chuxi smiled, but he was cursing inwardly.

Could it be that he was already wary of Bing Yi?

How is that possible?!

Chen Yan bent down again and pulled a memory formation disk from the ruins of Building No. 110.

Ji Chuxi's eyelids twitched.

It was also at this time.

Lu Jianxia flew over.

"Bing Yi..." Lu Jianxia began, then looked toward Ji Chuxi:

"You..."

"I understand, you are reminding me that I still have matters to attend to." He smiled and flew away.

"Ji Haiyi, go help Chen Yunyou." Ji Haiyi's voice transmitted from the communication array disc on Ji Chuxi's eardrum.

Ji Chuxi was slightly stunned; he glanced at Chen Yan inadvertently but did not speak.

"Is Brother Chuxi intending to oppose me?" Chen Yan asked coldly.

"What?" Ji Chuxi's brows lifted slightly:

"What does Brother Bing Yi mean?"

Surprise surfaced in his heart; he hadn't said a word after receiving the communication.

"Is Brother Chuxi going to save Chen Yunyou?" Chen Yan spoke again.

"No, how did you know?" Ji Chuxi said with a smile:

"I will not interfere in the conflict between the two of you."

"You may have forgotten, I, Bing Yi, can discern others' inner thoughts simply by the changes in their expressions."

Ji Chuxi's pupils constricted, and endless coldness welled up in his heart.

As expected.

As expected, Bing Yi had already become terrifying to such a degree.

Damn it, what kind of thing is this?

"Chen Yunyou wants to kill me; by saving him, you are also killing me." Chen Yan was cold to the extreme, and a long spear appeared in his hand.

"Chi Yuexi and Lu Fukun have already been controlled by my explosive array disc; Brother Chuxi can think about how to play this game against me."

Silence.

An intangible chill spilled out, instantly enveloping Ji Chuxi from head to toe.

Even Ji Haiyi, outside the Ten Thousand Phases Island, trembled in expression, unable to make a decision at this moment.

"You..." Ji Chuxi was speechless:

"Are you truly an Ancient Divine Beast, or..."

He felt a bit of terror; too many unknowns had appeared on Bing Yi.

Is this damn thing still a genius?

It would be more accurate to call him an old monster.

Lu Jianxia was also watching; a few stray locks of hair slipped from behind her ears. Now, the feeling of Bing Yi in her heart grew increasingly powerful and mysterious.

For Bing Yi to have become like this, he must have paid a great price.

Chen Yan slowly looked at Lu Jianxia:

"Jianxia."

Lu Jianxia's expression tightened slightly; her jade hands, which had been hanging casually at her sides, now lifted subconsciously.

Bing Yi's form of address for her no longer included the word 'Princess'.

She watched the current Bing Yi quietly, listening.

The man wearing the white mask spoke:

"At the brink of life and death, I glimpsed a certain mystery of the Dao of Will, which may be related to breaking into the Immortal Will."

As his voice fell, Lu Jianxia parted her red lips slightly, and even Chi Yuexi's eyes trembled:

"You..."

"My Yu Province has records that back then, Lu Xunyang obtained an Immortal Body on the edge of death.

Chen Yan once entered death within the college entrance examination secret realm."

Chen Yan's voice was clear:

"And I, Bing Yi, struggled continuously within endless darkness, walking between a living being and an Ancient Divine Beast."

He slowly raised his hand, and a faint, crimson flowing glow appeared.

This was the aura of immortality.

Just a wisp.

"Immortal!" Ji Haiyi exclaimed aloud.

"Just a thread," Chen Yan said, looking at Lu Jianxia:

"Can you help me?"

"You..." Lu Jianxia's eyes flickered; she wanted to say much, but at this moment, she chose to acknowledge him:

"I will help you."

"Jianxia, thank you," Chen Yan said quietly:

"I want to preach the Dao to the world!"

"I will assist you," Lu Jianxia said quietly.

"I want to realize the transformation from the body of an Ancient Divine Beast into a living being!"

His voice fell.

Shock!

Endless shock!

Everything was quiet.

Even Chen Yunyou, who was still fighting in the distance, paused because of it.

Transforming from an Ancient Divine Beast into a living being?

How is that possible?

In ten thousand years of the Martial Dao, there has never been such a magnificent feat!

Outside Myriad Aspects Island, Chen Qi and the others fell silent, their hearts beating violently.

Only...

Chen Yan's voice was clear and resonant:

"I, Bing Yi, can die on the battlefield, can die on the path of seeking the Dao, can die at the hands of an Ancient Divine Beast.

But I cannot die at the hands of the human race, cannot die at the hands of a villain, cannot die at the hands of a butcher."

Lu Jianxia listened quietly, her gaze always blocked by Bing Yi's mask.

"I exhausted everything, only preserving my own consciousness, but my physical body still became an Ancient Divine Beast.

I do not want to spend the rest of my life like this; I will exhaust my very last bit of everything to convert the Malice!"

His voice was vast and filled with fighting spirit:

"Either the Malice destroys me, or I destroy the Malice. If I die, please let the world witness my demise!"

Boom!

The heavens were shaken.

Immediately after.

The news spread!

Bing Yi wants the world to witness him converting the Malice!

Countless people were shocked and astonished.

Bing Yi became an Ancient Divine Beast?

Bing Yi still has a sliver of human consciousness?

Bing Yi has already explored a sliver of an immortal will?

Bing Yi wants to exhaust everything to convert the Malice and restore his own spiritual nature as a living being?

Terrifying messages were bombarded out one after another.

Who knows how many people were left numb with shock.

Only one sentence spread, becoming known to more and more people.

"I, Bing Yi, shall use my life to verify the Dao and serve as a witness for the future of the world!"
