259: Chapter 259 Self-Destruction of a Quasi-Emperor-Level Formation!

"BOOM—!" Another earth-shattering roar echoed.

Before Ye Chen could steady himself, the Golden-Winged Peng Puppet, with its entire body made of crimson gold, flapped its wings, transforming into a blinding golden streak of light.

Like a giant sword capable of severing the heavens, it slashed directly down toward his head!

Ye Chen's pupils contracted sharply. Only now did he truly feel the terror of these two Puppets.

Although they were inanimate objects, the power circulating within their bodies was like a living Quasi-Emperor striking with full force.

Every blow carried the lingering resonance of pure Emperor Realm Law, so heavy that it made one unable to breathe.

He exerted all his spiritual Qi, flipped his left hand abruptly, and a dark red light shield condensed before him.

Runes flowed across the surface of the light shield, exuding a heart-stopping defensive power.

"CLANG—!" A sharp, ear-piercing sound of metal clashing erupted.

Under the impact of the golden wings, the dark red light shield instantly filled with spiderweb-like cracks, then shattered with a loud boom!

Ye Chen was sent flying backward again by the shockwave, tumbling several times in the air.

His clothes were shredded, his hair crown flew off, and his long hair hung disheveled over his shoulders, making him look utterly wretched.

Before he could land, the Nether Mystic Snake's tail pursued him like a shadow.

Its ink-black scales glimmered with a cold, eerie luster under the dark red light of the Blood Abyss Demon-Devouring Formation.

The snake tail swept across, carrying the heavy force of a mountain, and struck him squarely in the waist and abdomen.

"PUGH—!" A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from Ye Chen's mouth.

In mid-air, the blood turned into a dark red mist, carrying a terrifying Evil Qi.

He was like a piece of debris thrown out, smashing into the edge of the Blood Abyss Demon-Devouring Formation.

He caused the bloody light barrier to cave in significantly, and it hummed and vibrated several times before returning to normal.

At the edge of the ruins, the watching Cultivators all widened their eyes.

"The Master of Tiansha Abyss... actually beaten into such a state?"

"That is the number one person beneath the Quasi-Emperor Realm! How can he have no power to fight back in front of these two Puppets?!"

"Heh, that's not a fair comparison. Those are two Quasi-Emperor Realm Puppets. No matter how strong the Master of Tiansha Abyss is, he hasn't reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm. It's no surprise he's being suppressed."

"To be honest, these Quasi-Emperor Realm Puppets are truly supreme treasures. Even just one would be enough to protect a Holy Land's Legacy for ten thousand years."

Ye Chen slid down from the indented barrier with difficulty, knelt on one knee, and raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

His narrow, dark red eyes were filled with irrepressible shock, anger, and unwillingness.

He never dreamed that when facing Shen Qingyuan again, the other party wouldn't even need to make a move personally to make him look so exceptionally miserable.

He raised his head, his gaze locked onto Shen Qingyuan.

Every word seemed to be forced out from between his teeth: "You... how can you have Quasi-Emperor Realm Puppets?!"

Shen Qingyuan stood lazily in the center of the Formation eye with his hands tucked into his sleeves, his green robes motionless.

He looked at Ye Chen's miserable state and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "What? Only the Tiansha Abyss is allowed to have treasures, and I cannot?"

Ye Chen was choked by this remark, his face turning livid, and his chest heaved as his Qi and blood surged.

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

His gaze swept quickly over the two Puppets, his mind racing to calculate a plan for escape.

Although these two Quasi-Emperor Puppets were powerful, they were ultimately inanimate objects, relying entirely on Shen Qingyuan's control from behind the scenes.

If he could find an Opportunity to injure Shen Qingyuan himself, those two Puppets would naturally lose control.

But as soon as this thought surfaced, he forcibly suppressed it.

Compared to the two Quasi-Emperor Puppets, Shen Qingyuan's strength made him even more wary.

This seemingly young man possessed unfathomable strength; he was simply not someone he could confront head-on.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, a flash of determination in his eyes.

He suddenly raised his hand and slammed the Formation Plate of the Blood Abyss Demon-Devouring Formation in his palm onto the ground!

"BOOM—!" The Formation Plate shattered, and the Blood Abyss Demon-Devouring Formation disintegrated instantly.

Countless dark red rune fragments exploded like fireworks, turning into a sky full of blood mist that permeated the air, dyeing the space within a hundred zhang dark red.

But at the same time, an extremely violent force of the Void Realm swept out, engulfing the entire ruins like a tidal wave.

Ye Chen's figure blurred rapidly within that Void Realm force.

His dark red robes were torn and flapped loudly, as if they were about to be shredded by the power of the Void Realm at any moment.

He had actually detonated the Formation Plate directly, using the violent Void Realm force from the disintegration of the Formation to forcefully tear through the Void Realm and attempt to escape!

"Shen Qingyuan, you just wait! I have recorded this debt!"

His voice came from the twisted Void Realm, hoarse and vicious.

"Once I find another Opportunity and achieve a Breakthrough to the Quasi-Emperor Realm, you will be the first one I use to sacrifice my banner!"

However, before he could finish speaking—

A green figure had already appeared before him.

Shen Qingyuan was still in his lazy posture with his hands tucked into his sleeves.

His steps were casual, yet it was as if he had crossed the gap of time and space, appearing before the twisted Void Realm where Ye Chen was about to vanish.

"Leaving? Who gave you permission to leave?"

Shen Qingyuan's voice was calm and waveless.

He stretched out one hand, his slender, fair fingers gently gripping the twisted Void Realm.

"CRACK." With a very light and crisp sound, the frantically shrinking spatial rift suddenly stalled, as if gripped by an invisible giant hand at its edges, unable to heal or expand any further.

Immediately afterward, Ye Chen's figure was forcefully dragged out of the rift!

He fell to the ground in a wretched state, his dark red robes tattered, his hair disheveled, and fresh blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Where was there any trace of the majesty of the Master of Tiansha Abyss?

"You—!" Ye Chen's pupils contracted sharply, a deep sense of horror appearing in his eyes.

He never imagined that even after using his last resort—detonating the Formation Plate—he still hadn't managed to escape from this person's grasp!

"What kind of person are you?! In this world, it is absolutely impossible for someone with your level of cultivation to exist! Who exactly are you?!"

Ye Chen's voice was hoarse, carrying an irrepressible tremor.

Shen Qingyuan looked down at him, his condescending gaze carrying a hint of playfulness.

"Why do you people all love to ask this question?"

He chuckled, his tone carrying a hint of unquestionable majesty.

"Who I am is not important. What is important is that you have offended me twice!"

He raised his hand, his fingers moving slightly.

The two Quasi-Emperor Puppets, as if receiving an order, slowly surrounded Ye Chen.

One black and one golden, the two massive figures completely sealed off Ye Chen's path.

Ye Chen slumped on the scorched earth, looking at the approaching Quasi-Emperor Puppets, and then at the green-robed figure with hands tucked in sleeves and a lazy posture.

Finally, he stopped struggling.

He just closed his eyes, a bitter arc tugging at the corners of his mouth.

"Forget it... I have roamed the world for half a lifetime, never expecting to fall into your hands."

He opened his eyes again and looked at Shen Qingyuan: "Do whatever you want with me. But don't forget, I have more than just the Tiansha Abyss behind me. If you kill me, they will not let you go!"

Upon hearing this, there was no ripple in Shen Qingyuan's eyes.
