193: A divine eye? A blind man? (Seventy-eight)

The Place of Fallen Saints.

The atmosphere was extremely heavy.

You Chen stood calmly, holding the Origin that radiated the aura of the saint dao.

Around him was a dense, dark crowd.

Hundreds, even thousands of Prodigies from different realms surrounded the place, leaving no way out.

In everyone's eyes burned unconcealed greed and killing intent.

saint dao origin.

This was a supreme treasure that could only condense after a powerhouse of the Saint Realm fell.

Obtaining it would allow one to peer into the mysteries of the Saint Realm, and their future achievements would be limitless.

This temptation was enough to drive anyone mad.

"Hand it over!"

Finally, someone could no longer restrain themselves, and a roar broke the dead silence.

It was like a signal.

In an instant, hundreds of Divine Abilities containing the power of Laws lit up from all directions.

They turned into streaks of light, descending upon You Chen in the center like a violent storm.

Knowing You Chen's strength, they did not dare to hold anything back.

This volley was enough to blast an ordinary King-level powerhouse into dust.

Facing this world-destroying siege, there wasn't a trace of fear on You Chen's face.

He even gave a cold laugh.

"A bunch of rabble."

He raised his eyes.

After five years of secluded cultivation, his strength was no longer what it used to be.

It was the perfect time to use these people's lives to test his Dao.

Boom!

Behind him, the Dao charm of the "Nirvana Singularity" unfolded silently.

It formed a Domain of absolute nothingness.

The Dao principles composing every Law-based Divine Ability that entered this Domain instantly began to disintegrate and collapse.

This scene shocked everyone.

However, it wasn't over yet.

You Chen moved.

He held his fingers together like a sword and made a casual swipe toward the densest part of the crowd.

A seemingly plain sword light flashed and vanished.

That sword light didn't have earth-shattering power, yet it contained a pure, ultimate intent of "Severing."

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Wherever the sword light passed, the seven or eight Quasi-King Prodigies charging at the front suddenly froze.

The next moment, a thin line of blood appeared on all their foreheads simultaneously.

Then, their bodies, along with their Divine Souls, were split in two by that Sword Intent.

With one sword strike, he killed nearly ten Prodigies with Quasi-King combat power.

The entire field fell into silence.

This move by You Chen completely intimidated all the petty characters.

"Emperor-level combat power!"

"Perhaps even close to the Venerable Realm..."

Fear began to spread through the crowd.

But the temptation of the saint dao origin ultimately outweighed the fear.

"He's only one man, we'll wear him down!"

A roar reignited the crowd's greed.

Even more powerful attacks surged forward again.

Among them were several full-strength strikes from genuine Emperor-level powerhouses.

"Courting death."

You Chen snorted coldly.

Combining the Nirvana Dao Domain with his embryonic Sword Dao.

He turned into a streak of black lightning and charged into the crowd.

A bloody massacre began.

Any Prodigy covered by his Nirvana Domain would have their Law power forcibly suppressed, their strength greatly diminished.

Meanwhile, his indestructible sword momentum ruthlessly harvested lives.

Screams rose one after another.

In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, nearly a hundred Prodigies had fallen under You Chen's sword.

Among them were even three genuine Emperor-level powerhouses.

You Chen's strength far exceeded everyone's imagination.

Just as he was about to kill a fleeing King-level powerhouse to completely intimidate the crowd...

A cold strand of Devilish Qi emerged from the Void Realm, blocking his killing strike.

Then, a terrifying bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking directly at his head.

You Chen's heart tightened, and he had to give up the pursuit, retreating rapidly.

Some of the top figures among the Emperor-level powerhouses could no longer sit idly by.

"Kill!"

Seeing the top powerhouses join in, the Prodigies who had been scared witless regained their courage and launched another siege.

You Chen's pressure instantly doubled.

Right then.

A cold, clear sword chime rang out from the distant horizon.

That sword chime seemed capable of purifying all the filth in the world.

A sharp, peerless green sword light crossed the sky like a celestial chasm, arriving later but striking first, accurately cutting into the weakest corner of the encirclement.

Boom!

Where the sword light passed, dozens of Quasi-God King Prodigies were pushed back by the terrifying Law power within it.

The encirclement was forcibly torn open.

A figure dressed in white, holding the Qingluan Longsword, came treading through the Void Realm.

Her expression was cold, her eyes devoid of emotion, as she landed right beside You Chen.

"Qing Yao!"

You Chen recognized the newcomer, a trace of warmth flashing in his eyes.

Having not seen her for years, Qing Yao's strength had also reached the King-level Realm.

Qing Yao didn't speak, simply standing silently by You Chen's side, her longsword pointing at the enemies, making her stance clear.

Standing shoulder to shoulder with her.

However.

Before the two could catch their breath.

On the other side of the sky, purple flames soared.

An equally powerful aura approached rapidly.

It was Zi Yuan.

Her gaze was incredibly complex.

She looked at You Chen, who was besieged by the crowd yet still filled with soaring Battle Intent, her heart full of conflicting emotions.

On one hand, You Chen had humiliated the Zi Clan in the Northern Plains and killed several Zi Clan Prodigies; he was an irreconcilable enemy.

But on the other hand, the past feelings and grievances made it impossible for her to watch You Chen die at the hands of others.

Zi Yuan took a deep breath, her eyes turning cold and resolute once more.

"This man's life can only be taken by my Zi Clan!"

She spoke coldly, finding an irrefutable excuse for herself and her clansmen.

With those words, she charged into the fray without looking back.

She didn't attack You Chen, but instead stood on his other side, blocking several fatal attacks for him.

For a moment.

You Chen, Qing Yao, and Zi Yuan.

The three stood back-to-back, forming a temporary triangular formation.

Sword light, the shadow of the Qingluan, and the Purple Phoenix Divine Flame.

Three distinct powers complemented each other, actually managing to temporarily withstand the attacks from all sides.

The battle seemed to have reached a turning point.

"Hehe, what a touching scene."

An untimely feminine giggle rang out in the sky.

An Emperor-level enchantress of the Demon Race seemed to have lost her patience.

No longer watching from the sidelines, her seductive figure flashed, and she appeared silently above the battlefield.

"Seeing you sisters struggle so hard makes my heart ache."

Her eyes were seductive as silk, yet her gaze was locked onto Qing Yao, who was focused on controlling her sword.

The next moment, an invisible devilish sound pierced directly into Qing Yao's Sea of Consciousness.

Buzz!

Qing Yao felt her Divine Soul shake violently as her vision went dark.

Her sharp, peerless sword momentum suddenly faltered, revealing a massive opening.

"You're looking for death!"

Sensing Qing Yao's peril, You Chen roared. Ignoring his own exhaustion, he forcibly split off a strand of Sword Intent to block several attacks aimed at her opening.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Another supreme Emperor-level powerhouse finally moved.

He simply flicked a finger casually toward Zi Yuan.

A bolt of Chaos Divine Lightning as thick as a baby's arm appeared out of thin air, crashing down with an aura of total destruction.

Zi Yuan turned pale with shock.

She pushed the power of her Purple Phoenix Divine Body to its limit, her purple divine flames forming a massive shield in front of her.

Boom!!!

A thunderous explosion.

The seemingly indestructible purple flame shield was fragile before the Chaos Divine Lightning, shattering instantly.

The terrifying shockwave sent Zi Yuan flying.

She spat out a mouthful of blood, her aura instantly withering.

Emperor-level power was far beyond what they could currently contend with.

Under the deliberate targeting of these top powerhouses, Qing Yao and Zi Yuan soon found themselves in constant peril.

From being helpers, they had completely turned into burdens that You Chen had to protect while distracted.

You Chen's pressure increased manifold.

The Divine Power within his body was being consumed at a terrifying rate.

The situation fell into a desperate state once again.

"It's over."

The cold voice of the God Emperor Prodigy who displayed the embryonic Thunder Dao sounded like a final judgment.

He spotted a massive opening You Chen left while trying to protect Qing Yao.

This time, he stopped playing around.

He raised his hand, and in his palm, a spear made entirely of Chaos Divine Lightning slowly took shape.

That lightning spear radiated a terrifying aura capable of annihilating the Divine Soul.

The lightning spear turned into a bolt of electricity that tore through the Void Realm, stabbing directly toward You Chen's undefended back.

This strike was incredibly fast.

It was also incredibly lethal.

At the very moment the lightning spear was about to pierce You Chen's body.

A seemingly ordinary sword light arrived later but struck first.

It appeared silently in front of the lightning spear.

That sword light simply circled the lightning spear gently.

The next moment.

The violent Laws and power within the lightning spear, capable of destroying everything, were instantly "plundered" away.

They vanished into nothingness.

"What?"

The Thunder King's expression changed drastically.

A young man in elegant white clothes, wearing a blindfold, stepped forward.

He appeared out of thin air in front of You Chen, blocking all the aftershocks for him.

He stood with his back to You Chen, not looking back at him once.

He simply smiled as he looked at the pale-faced Thunder Dao Prodigy and all the other Emperor-level powerhouses.

He spoke calmly and slowly.

His voice wasn't loud, yet it spread clearly across the entire battlefield.

"For you all to bully the few with your numbers is a bit..."

"...too lacking in martial virtue."
