Chapter 144: Ye Chen Triggers the Heavenly Dao

Both of them felt the terrifying tremor; in the next instant, the Dao shattered, the laws became chaotic, and heaven and earth fell into darkness.

"What's happening!?"

"At this moment, they have launched an attack."

"What!"

Just as Ye Chen was shocked, a massive hand suddenly reached out from beyond the heavens, and Lianyi, upon seeing the scene, had her expression drastically change.

"Bad news, they're attacking; you should leave quickly, you can still make it if you go now."

However, Ye Chen did not move; he stared at the Xingkong beyond the heavens, his expression tightly clenched.

"Is there truly no hope at all?"

"The past remains the past; even the Immortal King cannot overly influence the river of time, so what can you do?"

"At least I can, within this spacetime, help them and slay the enemy together!"

Ye Chen finished speaking, his killing intent cold and fierce.

Lianyi sensed the killing intent on Ye Chen, her expression froze, but soon a barely perceptible smile appeared on her face.

"You could have left this place, these matters didn't require your involvement, yet you chose to join."

"No obstacle."

Ye Chen said, unleashing his entire cultivation, and flew toward the beyond.

Lianyi, seeing this, gently shook her head, then followed Ye Chen, flying toward the beyond.

Beyond the heavens, the Immortal Kings were nowhere to be seen; only cultivators below the Immortal Kings were fighting.

Ye Chen also understood why the Immortal Kings were absent: their battle level was too high; even if they touched a distant ripple, they would die on the spot, so their battlefield was elsewhere.

On the battlefield beyond, he saw two familiar figures: one was Yeming, the other was Huo He, and at that moment they were being besieged by six or seven cultivators.

They were covered in wounds, their condition extremely feeble.

Ye Chen, seeing this, rushed toward them without hesitation.

The Taiji Creation Diagram and Nine Heavens Chaos Mystic Thunder emanated from his body; any cultivator approaching him could not avoid death.

Only cultivators in the later stage of Great Vehicle could resist Ye Chen's Taiji Creation Diagram and Nine Heavens Chaos Mystic Thunder; those below that stage would almost certainly die upon contact.

The moment Ye Chen appeared, he attracted the attention of many; they had thought Ye Chen was merely an ordinary God Transformation cultivator.

But they did not expect his combat power to be so exaggerated.

In an instant, Ye Chen was surrounded by people from the Otherworld.

Ye Chen, seeing this, let out a cold snort; then his three-layer Extreme Boundary power fully erupted, and after that eruption, nearby cultivators were instantly flipped over.

At the same time, the Taiji Creation Diagram and Nine Heavens Chaos Mystic Thunder struck them; instantly those people perished, the whole process taking less than three breaths.

Immediately after, Ye Chen, at extreme speed, arrived beside Yeming and Huo He.

Yeming and Huo He looked at the young cultivator they had brought back, their eyes filled with shock.

They knew Ye Chen's talent and strength were great, but they did not expect his combat power to be exaggerated to such an extent.

"Ye Chen Daoist companion, you..."

Yeming was cut off before finishing, "This is not a place for talking; I'll first take you away from here."

Ye Chen said, enveloping Yeming and Huo He with spiritual energy; then, as if in a realm without people, he led them away from here.

Otherworld cultivators had indeed tried to block him, but the moment they approached, Ye Chen wiped them out.

After this scene played out three or four times, no Otherworld cultivator dared to block Ye Chen any longer.

At this moment, the Otherworld cultivators understood that only a powerful cultivator, or at least a later-stage Great Vehicle cultivator, could contend with Ye Chen.

Ye Chen quickly brought Yeming and Huo He back; at that time, their life flames flickered, as if they could extinguish at any moment.

"You both tend to your wounds first; the rest is up to me now."

Ye Chen finished, and Yeming and Huo He exchanged a glance, "Ye Chen Daoist companion, actually you didn't need to join this battle."

Yeming said to Ye Chen, he hadn't expected that the Ye Chen he unintentionally brought back would save his life at the crucial moment.

"No obstacle, I just wanted to join."

Ye Chen finished, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.

Yeming and Huo He watched the direction Ye Chen departed, their thoughts a whirlwind.

"Brother Yeming, we should have stopped him; the cruelty of this battle is far beyond what we can imagine, he could very well die here."

"Perhaps, but even if we intended to block him, we couldn't in our current state."

A hint of helplessness leaked from Yeming's tone.

"The time left for us is ultimately too little."

Yeming said, his resentful gaze turning toward the battlefield beyond.

"Brother Yeming, the power that just erupted from him—was it... three-layer Extreme Boundary?"

Huo He finished, and only then did Yeming notice that the power Ye Chen just unleashed completely surpassed that of a God Transformation cultivator, and

At this very moment, Ye Chen had already arrived at the battlefield beyond, summoning the full Taiji Creation Diagram and Nine Heavens Chaos Mystic Thunder, and his three-layer Extreme Boundary power had been driven to its limit.

The current Ye Chen was almost god‑versus‑god, Buddha‑versus‑Buddha; in a short span, he terrified those Otherworld cultivators into dread.

"Damn, didn't we say our cultivation method counters theirs? Why does this cultivator kill us as easily as slaying a chicken?"

"There's a problem, this cultivator has a huge problem!"

"No, he's three-layer Extreme Boundary; only that level of power we cannot contend with!"

As those words were shouted, everyone fled from Ye Chen, as if evading a plague god.

"Run!"

No one knows who shouted that, but instantly those cultivators fled like fugitives.

Cultivators of their world all heard the words: Ye Chen is three-layer Extreme Boundary!

"He is a third-layer Extreme Boundary! When did this monster appear!"

"A third-layer Extreme Boundary—he shouldn't be this unknown!"

"Damn it, who buried him!"

"So everyone was doubtful, yet at the same time they felt relieved, because Ye Chen belonged to their world."

"The battle continued; aside from those who had witnessed Ye Chen's power and fled, the others did not retreat, and Ye Chen once again charged at them, fighting desperately."

"Ye Chen knew they were illusions, but throughout history, in the long river of the world, these events had truly occurred, and he could not simply stand by and do nothing."

"Even if he changed nothing, he still had to act; the reason was simple: these people were truly excellent, peerless heavenly talents, and he could not bear to ignore them."

"Kill!"

"Ye Chen roared in anger; at this moment, his killing intent was fierce, he stood there, and the violent power made his black hair stand on end, his whole appearance resembling that of a peerless demon god."

"What a pity, these are not true souls; if they were, capturing them all in your Ten Thousand Souls Banner, I dare not imagine how powerful your Ten Thousand Souls Banner would become."

"Hunyan's voice suddenly sounded at this moment, but Ye Chen ignored it, instead mobilizing his entire body's strength and charging at those people."

"The people of this world, seeing Ye Chen's bravery, instantly had their morale boosted!"

"Although his cultivation was only at the God Transformation stage, his combat power far exceeded that of a God Transformation cultivator!"

"Kill!"

"Ye Chen's voice rang out; although not loud, it shook the universe."

"Whether it was because Ye Chen's 'Kill' affected the people of this world, or because they saw his such bravery and hope ignited in their hearts, each face showed fierce killing intent, as if they were about to tear them apart in the next moment."

"Kill!"

"Amidst the chorus of 'Kill' voices, gradually, the bodies of the cultivators of Ye Chen's world underwent slight changes—it was an unnamed force."

"At this very moment, the Heavenly Dao suddenly bestowed a golden light; that golden light was extremely soft, soft to the point of feeling like soaking in a hot spring."

"But when the foreign cultivators sensed that golden light, they were filled with astonishment."

"Heavenly Dao's blessing!"

"Retreat! Quickly retreat!"

"......"

"Terrified voices kept echoing among the foreign cultivators."
