Chapter 740: Your Killer, Ye Chen, the Successor to the Icebound Divine King!
"The Frozen Divine King?" Ni Shan God King was taken aback.
However, he immediately seemed to recall something, and a cold smile crossed his face.
"That guy, some of my Cultivation Techniques were learned from him. It's a pity though, in the end I only managed to severely injure him, letting him escape."
"But even if he did escape, I'm afraid he surely couldn't have survived. It's just a shame about the Treasures he had on him..."
At this point, Ni Shan God King's divine eyes fixed straight on Ye Chen, "What's the matter, kid, do you have ties to that Frozen Divine King?"
"Heh heh, don't think just because you could block my recent move that you're anything special."
"I could deal with the Frozen Divine King back then, and I can deal with you now!"
Pfft! Pfft!
As he spoke, Ni Shan God King swept his palm, and two Blood Puppets pressed down on the feeble "Master Liancheng" and "Master Wanbo", while the other six Blood Puppets directly moved behind him, facing Ye Chen.
Although Ni Shan God King verbally dismissed Ye Chen, deep down he was still a bit apprehensive about Ye Chen, who had suddenly stood up.
After all, the young man before him had already seen him injure two mid-tier earthly Divine Venerables and still dared to stand up, he surely had some kind of ace up his sleeve.
Ni Shan God King, a cunning person, of course, took the situation very seriously.
Ye Chen, for his part, was indifferent to Ni Shan God King's little maneuver.
His gaze shifted toward the void space for a moment, pondering in his heart, "Frozen Divine King predecessor, I have found the culprit who harmed you. Today, I will help you take revenge!"
The next moment, Ye Chen's gaze fixed directly on Ni Shan God King.
Ye Chen didn't waste more words, and directly said to him, "Ni Shan, remember, the person who will kill you today, is the disciple of the Frozen Divine King—Ye Chen!"
Ye Chen revealed his true self for the very purpose of avenging the Frozen Divine King in the persona of his disciple!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the whole world shook.
The countless martial artists below were completely taken aback; they never expected that in the aftermath of "Ancestor Ni Shan" revealing his true self and injuring two mid-tier earthly Divine Venerables, a young man would actually stand up, dare to confront this ancestor, and even boldly declare to execute him!
In the crowd, a particular group of people were most shocked.
This group was none other than those from the Wang Family.
At this moment, Wang Cheng, looking up at Ye Chen in the Void Heaven, was so scared his eyeballs nearly fell out.
Ye Chen had already astounded him when he had repelled his grandfather, a lower-tier Divine King at the peak of his realm.
Now, Ye Chen was actually directly confronting a mid-tier earthly Divine Venerable!
Clearly, this indicated that he had previously provoked someone who wasn't even afraid of a mid-tier earthly Divine Venerable!
Wang Cheng's grandfather, the old Divine King of the Wang Family, the man in the brocade robe, was now trembling all over, "My God, this predecessor is even more powerful than I imagined. He... Could he not only possess the strength of an Upper God King, but could also execute a Heavenly Divine Venerable?"
"Keep in mind that those Eight Great Blood Puppets of Ancestor Ni Shan can reach the strength of a Heavenly Divine Venerable!"
At this time, the little girl Ping'er was clenching her tiny fists tightly with excitement.
She looked at Ye Chen, her starry eyes sparkling with brilliance.
Her Uncle Ye Chen, no, now the dashing Brother Ye Chen, was still as formidable as ever, still unstoppable.
Previously, he had faced off against Eight Tribulations and Nine Tribulations True Gods, had scared away a Divine King, and now, he wasn't even afraid of the big bad ancestor!
"Brother Ye Chen, kill this big bad ancestor!"
Ping'er raised her little fists and shouted towards the sky.
"Master Liancheng" and "Master Wanbo," pressed down by two of the great Blood Puppets, had already lost all hope.
They knew they couldn't stand against the Eight Great Blood Puppets and were certain to die at the hands of "Ni Shan God King."
Now, as Ye Chen had suddenly emerged, declaring to take revenge for someone called the "Frozen Divine King" who they had never heard of, a glimmer of hope flashed within them.
If Ye Chen could truly kill Ni Shan God King, they could indeed escape from the jaws of death at Ghost Gate!
The entire world was abuzz with discussions and unrest due to Ye Chen's words.
At this moment, "Ni Shan God King" had an extremely unsightly expression.
"Kill me?" Ni Shan God King eyed Ye Chen, "Many have wished to kill me; let's see if you've got what it takes!"
Ni Shan God King was even more hesitant in his heart.
It seemed he had heard the name "Ye Chen" before.
But for the life of him, he couldn't recall where he had heard it.
Now wasn't the time to ponder on it; while speaking with Ye Chen, Ni Shan God King had already secretly formed a spell with his hands.
The six great Blood Puppets behind him vanished in an instant.
The next moment, the six great Blood Puppets appeared behind Ye Chen, and a vast expanse of blood-colored light engulfed him completely!
This "Ni Shan God King," even with the status of a mid-tier earthly Divine Venerable, had actually launched a sneak attack on Ye Chen!
Seeing Ye Chen completely submerged by the blood-colored light, the countless martial artists below yelled out in shock.
Ping'er, along with Bai Zhuer and others, were so anxious that they even stopped breathing for a moment.
However, their anxiety was quickly relieved.
Because they saw that Ye Chen, just engulfed by the blood-colored light, suddenly emitted an extremely mystical starlight where he had been standing!
Amidst the flickering of endless starlight, Ye Chen's figure reappeared.
The blood-colored light from the six great Blood Puppets was completely repelled by the starlight surrounding Ye Chen!
"You would need all eight Great Blood Puppets to take action to perhaps prevent me from withstanding,"
"Six Great Blood Puppets cannot breach the defense of my 'Star Blue Divine Garment'."
Enveloped in the glow of the stars, Ye Chen shook his head with a smile at the "Nishan God King."
At this moment, seeing that Ye Chen could escape his confines, the "Nishan God King" had a drastic change in expression. He couldn't bother to use two blood puppets to suppress "Master Liancheng" and "Master Wanbo" anymore. With a wave of his hand, those two great blood puppets flew out instantly, joining the other six and once again launching an assault on Ye Chen.
Without the two great blood puppets to suppress them, "Master Liancheng" and "Master Wanbo," now feeble though they were, hastily retreated to the distant horizon before stopping to watch the match between Ye Chen and Nishan God King.
In the meantime, as Ye Chen faced the attack of the eight great blood puppets, a cone-shaped item the size of a fist and gleaming with silver suddenly appeared in his hand.
The Xuan Divine Cone!
This was indeed Ye Chen's formidable trump card, capable of slaying a Superior Heavenly Divine Venerable and critically wounding an Immortal Divine Venerable—the Xuan Divine Cone!
Of course, Ye Chen wouldn't let Nishan God King harm him.
He had long kept a Xuan Divine Cone clasped in his hand!
"Let's end this."
Ye Chen held the Xuan Divine Cone, his expression neither sad nor happy.
The next moment, the Xuan Divine Cone in Ye Chen's hand burst forth a beam of white lightning so extraordinarily splendid.
What a magnificent bolt of white lightning it was!
Thousands of warriors from countless families on the ground below gaped in awe.
They had never seen such an incredible white lightning before!
It was as if it were a divine object from the extreme heavens, a thousand, no, a million times more wondrous than real lightning!
Then, everyone witnessed a scene they would never forget in their lifetime.
The eight great blood puppets, which even two mid-ranking Divine Venerables couldn't withstand, were, in the twinkling of this unearthly white lightning, as if slashed by numerous divine lights.
Splurt! Splurt! Splurt! Splurt! Splurt!
They instantly exploded into pieces, turning into chunks of wood completely devoid of divine power!
And that white lightning, with its inconceivable speed, shot towards the eight blood puppets' master, the "Nishan God King."
Even if the "Nishan God King" saw something was wrong and tore open the void in a panic to escape into it,
the white lightning still penetrated the void, striking within!
The next moment, everyone heard an incredibly miserable scream, and they all saw the body of "Nishan God King" being pierced from the void and falling from it, plummeting down.
In his dying breath, the "Nishan God King" managed to shout out a few words, "You are that Ye Chen, the peerless genius from the Supreme Divine Institute!" before he fell from the void and died.
At the moment of his death, the Nishan God King finally remembered where he had heard the name Ye Chen.
He had heard from some messages that had entered the "Snow Lotus Mountain" of Star Continent about the Supreme Divine Institute having enrolled a new peerless genius.
A peerless genius who could eliminate a Divine King with the strength of a Divine Venerable while being at the True God Realm!
Until his death, the Nishan God King would never expect that this peerless genius "Ye Chen" had any connection with the "Icebound God King" he once plotted against!
Bang!
The remains of the Nishan God King eventually fell to the earth, causing it to tremble upon impact.
Then, the corpse was enshrouded with flashes of lightning and electromagnetic glows, disintegrating into nothingness with the tremor.
Silence.
All around was utter silence.
Nobody had expected that the "Ancestor Nishan," who had bared his fangs, would meet such an end, utterly annihilated!
This young man who had stepped forward had truly killed the "Nishan God King," the evil presence concealed for thousands of years!
After a moment of silence, the whole land erupted in an earth-shattering cheer.
Many had worried that the sinister Nishan God King would target them later on, but now, with the Nishan God King dead, they cheered without restraint!
Amongst the cheers, numerous discussions also arose.
"That Ancestor Nishan, in his last moments, said that this youth is from the Supreme Divine Institute, named Ye Chen?"
"I think I've heard of Ye Chen from the Supreme Divine Institute!"
Within the crowd, Ping'er felt the most incredulous.
Right then, the little girl gazed at her brother Ye Chen in the Void Heaven, her starry eyes filled with disbelief.
The little girl adored heroes.
Even within "Snow Lotus Mountain" on Star Continent, she had heard of the legends from the Divine Kingdom, heard of the unmatched genius Ye Chen from the Supreme Divine Institute, whose fame was comparable to the institute's foremost Divine Maiden "Long Li."
When Ping'er first heard the name Ye Chen, she could never have imagined that this Ye Chen was the same Ye Chen from the Supreme Divine Institute.
After all, there were far too many who shared the same name in the world.
Furthermore, Ye Chen had the appearance of a bearded burly man.
When Ye Chen reverted to his original appearance, the little girl was already astounded.
Now, upon hearing that her brother Ye Chen was indeed the same Ye Chen whom she had so admired and had never met from the Supreme Divine Institute,
the little girl's heart seemed ready to leap out, "Brother Ye Chen!"
"He is the Ye Chen from the Supreme Divine Institute!"
