Chapter 749: The Transmission of True Martial, Borne by Me, Chen Yan, Alone!
Above the firmament, blood rain drifts and sways.
The land of Ji Province falls into a deathly silence; hundreds of millions of living beings look up at that tattered yet still standing figure, as if seeing a ghost or a god.
"He... is still alive..."
Someone whispers with a trembling voice, the sound torn apart by the wind.
"Impossible!
Can an Immortal Will truly be undying and indestructible?!"
Ji Yanqing's face is deathly pale, the long whip in her hand trembling inch by inch, as if eroded by invisible fear.
Everyone's brain has crashed.
Where Chen Yan stands, the residual fire is still burning; his ink-colored robe has long since burned away, revealing charred bones and flesh, and one can even see his slowly beating heart in his chest cavity, each pulsation spraying out golden-red flames of will.
He just stands there quietly, his eyes filled with calm.
"Can this not kill me either?"
Chen Yan stretches out his hand, looking at his left hand which is nothing but bare white bone; the boiling power of will flows like magma between the wounds.
Clatter!
The shattered Heavenly God Armor transforms into tens of thousands of pitch-black scales, gathering upon Chen Yan's physical body and changing back into an ink-colored robe.
【Blood Battle State】, activate!
It must be admitted that the 【Blood Battle State】 is still too overpowered.
If not for the Heavenly God Armor, Chen Yan would have perished just now.
After all, in order to create Li Zhiyi and Zhao Zhugui, Chen Yan's own Domain of Will had long been severed by two-thirds.
That is to say, the Domain of Will remaining in Chen Yan's body now is merely one-third.
The current Chen Yan is simply not in his complete form.
He scans the silent world coldly, a look of disappointment actually appearing in his eyes:
"Why are you all so weak?
The four or five Marshals of a province are actually not even a match for one of my hands?"
His physical body is recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, his miraculous newborn flesh radiating a crimson glow like the great sun.
Rumble!!!
Above the broken firmament, countless dragon-like, brilliant thunderbolts flicker and roar; the blinding light falls upon him, setting him off as even more of a deity.
"With existences like you, how can you deal with the Ancient God Beasts?
You are, after all, the pinnacle of the mortal world."
He speaks calmly; though calm, every word seems to hide the power of divine punishment capable of severing all things.
As this voice falls, the living beings of the entire Ji Province are plunged into terrifying, chilling dread.
That person not only didn't die, he is actually truly disappointed.
Is it because their Ji Province's methods are too weak?
Or is it because their Ji Province's four or five Marshals are not strong enough?
But no one dares to refute, because this devil just annihilated their two great Marshals a moment ago.
Terrifying!
Horrifying!
Around Chen Yan, tens of thousands of Ji Province martial artists who intended to come and self-destruct are trembling in their expressions at this moment.
Throughout the entire Ji Province, countless martial artists who had taken flight, intending to heroically sacrifice themselves, now have their bodies frozen in place, staring blankly at Chen Yan.
An elderly martial artist seems to lose all his strength in an instant, collapsing to the ground, his eyes hollow and lifeless, tears mixing with snot streaming down, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
He points shakily at Chen Yan and roars out:
"A devil, a devil!!!"
His desperate voice covers everyone's heart like cold ice; someone howls toward the sky:
"Is he truly undying and indestructible?"
"How can this be!!!"
"What to do, what should we do?"
Chen Yan and Lu Xunyang came, and now, just the two of them have already beaten their Ji Province into despair.
The entire Ji Province seems to have fallen into a desperate situation.
Above the void, the Ji Master has a bloodstain cut into her brow by the wind of Lu Xunyang's punch, bright red blood flowing down from her fair face.
She stands above the nothingness, looking at the figure below through the atmosphere; thunder erupts in her pupils, and her vermilion lips are pressed into a frost-covered blade.
Boom!!!
A golden fist imprint smashes down instantly; the Ji Master brings out a long thorn, shattering the fist imprint with a loud boom.
But her entire body is covered in bloodstains from the scattered fist light, her shoulder blade shatters instantly, and blood flows unceasingly.
High above in the distant void, Lu Xunyang throws a punch, shattering three heads of the biochemical blood dragon transformed from the Lu Master's body; for a time, dragon roars tremble, the Lu Master's face turns deathly pale, and he dodges continuously.
The five remaining Elders of Lu Province cast divine chains, wanting to imprison Lu Xunyang.
But there is simply no chance; the Second Elder's chest is shattered by a punch from Lu Xunyang, and he can only maintain the operation of his physical body with his life essence and blood.
Seeing this scene, the Ji Master bites her silver teeth, and a look of difficulty finally appears on her beautiful face; her gaze shifts downward once more.
Unparalleled hatred, unparalleled anger!
In the past, when Lu Xunyang once fought his way up to the Ji Province Royal Court, she had never been this angry.
But at this moment.
An indelible killing intent dwells in her heart, growing thicker and thicker, wishing she could go down right now and annihilate Chen Yan.
"Chen Yan!"
The cold voice echoed on and on, resounding across the entire sky of Ji Province.
The Ji Master forcibly suppressed her own killing intent, unable to hold back any longer, and roared out at this moment:
"What on earth are you unleashing? That is neither blood-Qi nor tempering!!!"
As her voice fell, it was as if boundless seawater were crashing against the firmament in the hearts of the crowd.
Ji Yanqing was still contending with the Sixth Marshal and Seventh Marshal against Xia Yuan; at this moment, the movements of their hands remained unchanged, and their gazes never once looked toward Chen Yan.
But the instant the Ji Master's voice rang out, their hearts still began to beat violently.
Within the cosmos, the Lu Master unclenched his tightly bitten teeth, spat out a mouthful of blood, and looked at Lu Xunyang with fierce eyes, but the corner of his vision still looked downward.
Throughout the entire Ji Province, all martial artists—the hidden ones, the unhidden ones, the powerful ones, and the not-so-powerful ones—all fell silent at this moment.
Even the entire Great Xia was the same.
Some Tier 6, and even above Tier 6, martial artists opened their mouths; they thought it was because their own strength was low that they could not understand what martial Dao method Chen Yan was unleashing.
But now, the Ji Master was also asking.
That meant that what Chen Yan was unleashing was something that had never appeared in the world before.
Otherwise, why would the Ji Master need to ask?
Shock!
Dismay!
Even the extremely steady human powerhouses had their expressions change at this moment.
So, it was not just them who could not understand.
"So, you don't know."
Chen Yan's physical body reassembled, brilliant light exploding and shattering.
Rumble!!!
Within his body, nine True Martial self-universes vibrated and roared in unison, as if the earth were shaking and the mountains were swaying.
Inside each self-universe, the golden sun at the core of the universe erupted with scorching radiance.
In an instant, True Martial went wild, and endless pitch-black energy descended like mountains and seas!
"Chen...!"
The Ji Master's dry voice rang out from above the cosmos.
Rumble!!!!
The ocean of True Martial power entrenched in the firmament churned at this moment, covering the human world as Chen Yan pressed down with one hand.
It pressed toward the three Ji Province Marshals, including Ji Yanqing, like a world.
"What is this!!!"
Ji Yanqing let out a low roar, wielding her long whip to strike at that terrifying ocean of True Martial power.
But the Sixth Marshal and Seventh Marshal did not have such speed; struck by the True Martial power, their physical bodies trembled, covered in bloodstains, with bits of flesh splattering everywhere.
Their strength was already inferior to the Fourth Marshal and Fifth Marshal, and now, facing Chen Yan's pressure directly, they immediately took out the God-tier healing spirit medicine used only for saving their lives.
"This is not blood-Qi, nor is it tempering force; what is this thing?!!!"
The Seventh Marshal's arm was broken, his eyes erupting with terror, and he roared with his liver and gallbladder trembling.
"This is True Martial!"
Chen Yan took a step forward, the void shattering, and raised a fist; a pitch-black ring condensed between his knuckles.
【Heaven-Splitting Style】!
Hum!!!
Like a meteor impact, the pitch-black ring slammed toward the Seventh Marshal in an instant.
Ji Yanqing slashed with her long whip, only then shattering this strike, but the horror in her eyes grew even more intense.
"Blood-Qi and tempering combined into one school; tracing back to its source, it is True Martial!"
Chen Yan's voice rang out, his eyes scanning the heavens and earth:
"The legacy of True Martial is borne by me, Chen Yan, alone!"
At this instant!
The ten-thousand-year martial Dao history of the human world changed drastically!
In that moment.
Above the void, both the Lu Master and the Ji Master, who were contending with Lu Xunyang, had their bodies stiffen.
Above the firmament, the three great marshals including Ji Yanqing, and even Xia Yuan, were stunned.
Countless living beings were already dumbstruck.
Within the distant void, the Chen Master's slowly stepping pace paused in the void, and even his body trembled.
"The legacy of True Martial is borne by me, Chen Yan, alone!"
Chen Yan's voice rang out from the communication array disk beside his ear; on the other side of the disk, the voice of the Chen Province martial artist transmitting to him was trembling:
"Master, Master, we are..."
That martial artist roared with difficulty:
"We are opposing the Master of Martial Dao!"
The Chen Master's pupils constricted, standing above the boundless ocean; even in his eyes, a look of bewilderment emerged.
"Tempering, blood-Qi combined into one, True Martial..."
Can blood-Qi and tempering be combined into one?
Is this not two naturally opposing martial Daos?
Chen Zhu had once researched this as well, but the conclusion reached was that it was completely impossible.
"If I haven't seen it with my own eyes, then it isn't real."
He spoke calmly:
"Even if it is real..."
Chen Zhu's breathing paused slightly:
"Even if it is real, that is merely the merging of two already-existing Martial Daos, just like... the combination of Blood Qi and Elemental Martial Dao.
This is a coordination and evolution between Martial Daos, not the birth of a new Martial Dao.
Chen Yan is simply not the Lord of Martial Dao."
He opened his mouth, wanting to speak but stopping himself.
The seven great Martial Daos: Thought Power, Blood Qi, Hard Refinement, Will.
Elemental, Array Formation, True Intent.
The former four are Physical Martial Daos.
The latter three are Auxiliary Martial Daos.
Auxiliary Martial Daos can naturally assist Physical Martial Daos.
But between Physical Martial Daos, they are different; they are different paths that do not lead to the same destination.
How can a Physical Martial Dao merge with another Physical Martial Dao?
Chen Zhu could no longer speak, took a single step, and was ten thousand miles away.
At this moment, the sound of discussion throughout the entire world had long since reached a fever pitch.
"Lord of Martial Dao!"
"Lord of Martial Dao!"
"Lord of Martial Dao!!!"
Within the entire Great Xia, sounds of shock and cheers rang out, stretching endlessly, shaking the heavens and the earth.
People gazed at the giant screens above every city, falling into a state of boiling excitement.
Those military guards who admired Chen Yan all had their faces flushed red.
Starting from Qinzhou as the point of origin.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!!!!
One after another, flying warships set sail, leaving behind a vast expanse of white exhaust flames under the moonlit night.
Densely packed, web-like streams of light occupied the firmament.
Hundreds of thousands of martial artists took to the air, intending to cross the ocean and head to Jizhou.
Those with powerful cultivation in the Creation Realm even carried hundreds of martial artists with their own strength, flying off like long rainbows.
"Assist our Heavenly God General, assist our Great Xia Lord of Martial Dao!!!"
"The Lord of Martial Dao is our Great Xia's Heavenly God General; how could our Great Xia lose, how could our human race lose?!"
"Kill! Head to Jizhou, assist our God General!!!"
The sounds of battle cries rang out.
Madness, boiling over.
The entire Great Xia had become incomparably fervent.
In cities, villages, and mountain wildernesses, countless people looked up and gazed, their breathing rapid at this moment.
"I am actually... actually comrades-in-arms with the Lord of Martial Dao."
Inside the military camp, a young man named Xu Di looked blankly at the giant screen above Qinzhou.
Beside him, Zhan Hui, Shen Youning, and other former prodigies of the New Dragon Guard all wore dazed expressions.
This was something they never could have dreamed of.
Likewise, Li Qingyuan, Gao Yuan, Wu Chuhua, and other old classmates from the Martial Suppression Class felt even more like they were in a dream seeing this scene.
After the Martial Suppression Class, Chen Yan was like a dragon emerging from the water; even the heavens could not block him, and they could only watch Chen Yan's back from afar.
Now, they felt even more that there were countless worlds between them and Chen Yan, able only to see that towering corner, yet forever unable to approach.
Inside a mountain village, Hu Yuan opened his mouth wide, watching the giant screen, unable to breathe.
That Chen Yan was once a relative he looked down upon.
Because of one thousand yuan, he had always felt that Chen Yan was only fit to stay beneath his feet, and any resistance from the other party felt like a provocation to him.
But now, but now.
That one thousand yuan had long since been repaid by the other party, and there was no longer any connection between the two families.
Listening to that magnificent sound and watching that grand back, Hu Yuan couldn't even stand steady for a moment.
Within Tiezhou, the remaining military guards of the Five Clans hid in secret places, not daring to show their heads.
It was not just Great Xia, not just the Five Clans.
Within the borders of the other four provinces, there were sounds of fear and desperate cries everywhere.
The Lord of Martial Dao had appeared, and the entire history of the human race had been rewritten at this moment.
Hum, hum, hum!!!
The Grand Ancestral Uncle, Little Life Controller, Martial Suppression God General, and two other old men wearing gray robes flew across the sky, only to be intercepted by one person.
"Ke Qingxuan."
The Ancestral Uncle little nun frowned as she looked at Ke Qingxuan in front of her:
"We know of the matter you spoke of."
Ke Qingxuan's expression was calm:
"Since you are aware, then please return, all of you."
The little nun Zongbo's expression was icy:
"Why does Chen Yan not want us to go to Ji Province? If no reason is given, we will still go."
Ke Qingxuan's expression was calm:
"I do not know. He only instructed me as such; he did not state the reason, and I will not ask further."
"He will die," an old man in grey robes spoke up:
"The Lord of Chen is already on the road to Ji Province, determined to kill Chen Yan."
The two old men in grey robes had never appeared before the world, but if they were to reveal themselves, the world would surely be shocked.
Because these were two Princes of the Great Xia from a thousand years ago.
Two thousand years ago, these two were already at the Eighth Rank.
Ke Qingxuan's expression trembled, and she gritted her teeth, but still spoke:
"What he has ordered me to do, I must accomplish."
She tilted her body slightly, pressed a finger to her lips, and as her Qi and blood surged, two rotating cyan beams of light struck out.
"Secret Technique—Cyan Profundity!"
Boom!!!
One old man in grey robes flicked his finger into the void, and in an instant, ripples sealed the space, pinning Ke Qingxuan in place.
Even those two beams of light were frozen within the space.
"Little girl, I know you are very loyal and will not betray Chen Yan, but for you to try and stop us all by yourself is truly... a mantis trying to block a chariot."
One grey-robed person shook his head slightly:
"He does not let us go, but the two Divine Generals are the backbone of the Great Xia; tell me, how could we not go?"
The Grand Zongbo, Divine General Zhen Yue, and the others said nothing, brushing past Ke Qingxuan.
Ke Qingxuan's body trembled slightly, unable to move, but she still spoke:
"Ke Qingxuan implores you all to safely bring back the Heavenly Divine General."
