Sima Feng actually crossed tens of thousands of miles in an instant and directly tracked down Ye Chen!

Seeing the thin, black-clad middle-aged man suddenly appearing, Ye Chen felt a sudden heaviness in his heart.

This was Ye Chen's first time witnessing the true supernatural prowess of a Lower God King!

Being able to traverse tens of thousands of miles, to make him spit out blood with a mere roar, and moreover to instantly track him down, such strength was simply unimaginable for warriors in the Heavenly Saint Realm or True God Realm!

Ye Chen knew that when a Nine Tribulations True God broke through to the Lower God King Realm, not only would their True Qi increase by countless multiples, but their entire True Qi Divine Power would undergo a transformation to a higher level.

Even if Ye Chen, in the late Heavenly Saint Realm, could battle a Nine Tribulations True God and possessed means far beyond ordinary warriors, the gap between his realm and that of a Lower God King was too vast; he definitely could not defeat a Lower God King now.

Unless his star power expanded by countless multiples and his realm made a great advance, perhaps then he might stand a slight chance!

While Ye Chen's heart was shaking, the thin, black-clad middle-aged man, "Sima Feng", fixed his ghostly green eyes on Ye Chen.

His voice was extremely hoarse, like a ghostly wail, "Kid, you're merely at the late Heavenly Saint stage, yet you've managed to injure my son and withstand my soul-shattering strike!"

Sima Feng himself was somewhat shaken by Ye Chen's combat capabilities.

However, such shock was fleeting and even though Ye Chen's level of strength earned him some respect from Sima Feng,

Ye Chen had injured his son, Sima Huan, so he would absolutely not let Ye Chen go.

In the midst of speaking, Sima Feng's expression looking at Ye Chen turned incredibly grim, "No matter how strong you are, no matter how talented, since you've injured my son, you only have one path—death!"

"In this Buried Dragon Mountain Range, no one dares to defy me, no one dares to clash with my Black Dragon Stronghold!"

"Meet your death, and remember, the one who kills you is the Lower God King, Sima Feng!"

Boom!

As Sima Feng finished speaking, he didn't bother saying anything more to Ye Chen, immediately unleashing the aura of a Lower God King.

He had big plans to deal with in the Ancient Ape Valley, and of course, he wouldn't waste time!

As the aura exploded, within a radius of ten thousand zhang, the sky darkened amidst howling winds, accompanied by terrifying cries and wolf howls.

More horrifying still, amidst the chaotic aura, Sima Feng slapped his own head, and a palm-sized skull appeared above him instantly.

The skull's eye sockets flickered with ghostly green flames, which in a flash stirred up, as two unmatched ghostly green beams fiercely shot towards Ye Chen!

Clearly, the skull was an incredible offensive treasure!

Ye Chen, while in the underwater divine palace's Illusory Chessboard Formation, had already practiced up to the Upper God King Realm. Although it was all just a dream, Ye Chen possessed profound knowledge about the methods used by God King Realm warriors.

In the God King Realm, the Divine Power they held was significantly elevated compared to the True God Realm.

And their lifespan experienced a tremendous leap compared to the True God Realm!

This elevation and leap meant that warriors of the God King Realm were no longer solely reliant on True Qi Divine Power for battle; they would spend long periods of time cultivating their Life-bound Divine Treasures to execute even stronger attacks.

These Divine Treasures, honed over extensive periods of time, exerted attack power countless times stronger than Divine Arts, and could even incorporate Heaven-reaching Divine Arts within them. By utilizing the treasures, one could unleash these divine arts directly, causing their destructive power to combine with the might of the treasures and increase explosively!

At this moment, seeing the thin, black-clad middle-aged man, "Sima Feng", directly operating the skull to emit ghostly green beams, Ye Chen knew that this was likely the attacking prowess of one of Sima Feng's Life-bound Divine Treasures!

Struck by the ghostly green beams with an unimaginable speed, Ye Chen was hit before he could grasp what was happening.

Ye Chen, even before Sima Feng's appearance when coughing up blood, had already redirected all his strength to protect himself; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to defend in time and would have been killed on the spot!

However, even with Ye Chen's preparedness, the two ghostly green beams sent him flying tens of thousands of zhang away, smashing through no less than a hundred massive ancient trees in the process!

It was only because Xiaojiu rapidly flew out to unload the terrifying force from Ye Chen's body as he was being sent flying, that they ultimately managed to stop Ye Chen's continuous collision with the large ancient trees.

"Ye Chen!" Xiaojiu's eyes were already entirely red.

And in the Icebound Temple Jade Pendant, Zhou Yue, who could see everything happening outside, also had red-rimmed eyes. Even Bing Yi, Bing Wu, Bing Qi, and the little monkey, who were meditating inside the pendant, were all shaken awake!

Were it not for Ye Chen halting them, they would probably have flown out of the Icebound Temple Jade Pendant!

Ye Chen knew that with a Lower God King's battle strength, even with Bing Yi and the others' help, it would be absolutely futile, and could even lead to their deaths as well.

Therefore, Ye Chen had stopped them from coming out.

At this moment, Ye Chen felt as if his entire sea of qi was being torn apart, and his whole body was churning as if it were about to be shredded!

Puh! Puh! Puh!

When he had been blasted away just moments before, Ye Chen had spat out several mouthfuls of fresh blood. His clothes were completely shattered, revealing the mid-grade Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact level armor he had acquired from the inner sanctum of the Icebound Temple.

Without the protection of this armor, even if Ye Chen had been on guard, he might have been killed on the spot!

After glancing at the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact armor that had been revealed, Ye Chen quickly circulated the Divine Power of his Undying Divine Body, rapidly repairing his damaged body; at the same time, he flicked his palm and a top-grade Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat appeared in his hand.

With his current strength, he was not yet able to fully wield the protective abilities of the mid-grade Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact armor, let alone the flying speed of the top-grade Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat.

Therefore, Ye Chen had not used the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat when moving around before.

But now, facing the attack of a Lower God King he could not possibly withstand, Ye Chen had no choice but to rely on the defensive power of the top-grade Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat.

Seeing that his own strike had not killed Ye Chen, who was still able to move, Sima Feng's eyes twitched.

He knew very well that he had not held back in his attack.

Under such a blow, even a mighty Nine Tribulations True God could have been slain, yet this young man before him had managed to block it, taking Sima Feng completely by surprise.

When Sima Feng saw the armor revealed by the torn clothing on Ye Chen, along with the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat, a sneer spread across his face, "I didn't expect that a mere late-stage Heavenly Saint like you, in addition to being powerful in combat, actually possesses Heaven-reaching Divine Artifacts! And they're not even of low quality!"

"It seems you come from no ordinary background!"

"However, no matter how extraordinary your origins may be, if I kill you here in the Buried Dragon Mountain Range and erase all traces of what happened, there won't be anyone to avenge you!"

"You can't fully harness the power of Heaven-reaching Divine Artifacts, and you think they will protect you from me? Dream on!"

Boom!

As Sima Feng spoke, the skull above his head flashed in an instant, and two more green rays shot out towards Ye Chen.

Clearly, Sima Feng had no intention of giving Ye Chen a chance to recover his strength, intending to use this Divine Treasure to completely finish him off!

Before the green rays reached him, Ye Chen instantly flew into the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat, which then took the brunt of the assault directly.

The Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat was of the highest grade, so Sima Feng's Ancient Treasure could not destroy it. However, even if it could not be destroyed, the attack still managed to send the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat hurtling tens of thousands of feet away, with Ye Chen unable to fully activate its power.

In the end, Sima Feng reached out with a large hand and, regardless of Ye Chen controlling the flying boat, the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flew back towards Sima Feng!

Sima Feng, seeing that the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat could protect Ye Chen, seemed to want to take it for himself!

Without the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact, he would be directly exposed to attacks, and within the Divine Artifact, he had no way to prevent it from being seized. In the end, Ye Chen and Xiaojiu, who had also entered the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat, shared a significant glance. Then, Ye Chen instantaneously retracted the flying boat and revealed his figure.

As he was being grasped and pulled towards Sima Feng, and as Sima Feng once again charged up the skull to shoot out the third green ray, Ye Chen flashed with divine light and suddenly stopped the momentum at which he was being captured.

This divine light turned out to be Xiaojiu pouring all her Soul Power into Ye Chen's body, giving him a significant increase in Divine Power!

"Hm? Able to fuse Divine Power? It seems your Spirit Beast is a Soul Beast!" Sima Feng noticed Ye Chen's halted motion, his eyes growing cold, "You think with Divine Power fusion you can withstand my mortal blow? It's still far from enough!"

As he spoke, the two green rays shot by the skull heads were about to strike Ye Chen for the third time.

At that moment, the Life-bound Flying Sword, Crimson Fire, that resided within the Jian Palace acupoint on Ye Chen's forehead, took flight, gathering boundless Divine Power. It activated the second strike of the Nine Swords of Annihilation that Ye Chen had never before used, "Wandiding," to meet the two green rays head-on.

The moment the second strike of the Nine Swords of Annihilation, "Wandiding," was unleashed, the earth within a radius of ten thousand feet seemed utterly overturned, each piece of ground incinerated into nothingness, as if every breath of life had been drained!

These breaths, at an incredible speed, all flowed into the second strike of the Nine Swords of Annihilation wielded by Ye Chen's Life-bound Flying Sword, Crimson Fire!

A single sword met the attack, splitting heaven and earth, and finally shattered the two green rays completely!

This turn of events left Sima Feng with a shock in his eyes, "Flying Sword, Heaven-reaching Divine Art!"

"You, boy, sure do have quite a few hidden cards. It looks like I need to employ my trump card to deal with you!"

In Sima Feng's astonished gaze, he patted his forehead once more, and another Ancient Treasure that he nurtured within his body space emerged above his head.

This Ancient Treasure was a black Ancient Banner adorned with countless ghastly specter patterns.

And at that moment, Ye Chen too moved his palm, grabbing onto the life-saving talisman East Territory King had left behind.
