Chapter 24

On the Martial Arts Arena. The radiant armor on Yu Zunâs body shattered, blood dripping faintly from the corners of his mouth. His face was filled with disbelief.
âSword Eight Realm! One sword ⊠a single sword broke my strongest attack!? Impossible! This is impossible!â Yu Zun roared internally.
Since the day he began cultivating, he had always defeated his opponents with overwhelming strength, dominating his way forward. Even his aunt once said that when she was younger, she didnât possess such combat prowess.
He was a Holy Spirit Physique, the strongest bloodline of the Yu clan in the past 100,000 years. He was destined to defeat all prodigies and carve his own path of invincibility.
Yet here, in Heavenly Dao Holy Land, he had been defeated with a single sword by a junior at the first stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Yu Zun lifted his head and scanned the surroundings, as though he could see everyone mocking his previously invincible demeanor. Especially when he saw the astonished expression on his cousin Yu Xuanâs face and the sparkling brilliance in her beautiful eyes.
In an instant, Yu Zun felt his heart wrench as if being sliced by a knife. His cousinâs gaze was no longer on him, but on Yang Chen.
Damn it!
[Ding! The host has defeated Yu Zun with one sword. Yu Zunâs invincible Dao heart was severely damaged, and 2,000 points of Providence Luck were plundered from the Heavenâs Chosen Yu Zun. The host has gained 2,000 VPs!]
[Ding! The host displayed peerless talent, greatly increasing Yu Xuanâs favorability toward the host. Yu Zun noticed; his state of mind was severely damaged. Another 2,000 points of Providence Luck were plundered, and the host has gained 2,000 VPs!]
The systemâs voice rang repeatedly.
Yang Chen couldnât help but curve his lips into a faint smile. He sighed internally.
Goodness, as expected of the invincible Heavenâs Chosen. Interrupting his path towards invincibility earned such generous rewards.
In one go, he plundered a total of 4,000 luck value points.
Yang Chen looked at Yu Zun. Actually, Yu Zunâs strength wasnât weak. That earlier sword of his seemed like just one strike, but in reality, it was his strongest move.
His sword intent was at the small success stage of the Sword Eight Realm,
And it was only a step away from reaching the grand success stage. With this sword intent combined with his Solar Divine Flames, It was the epitome of strength, capable of cutting down and incinerating anything.
This was why he seemed to casually shatter Yu Zunâs full-strength radiant dragon attack with a single sword strike.
As for breaking his radiant armor, it was thanks to a secret technique recorded in the Pure Yang Sword Canon, created by the Pure Yang Sovereign. This technique was called the Sky-Splitting Sword Slash. The secret technique condensed oneâs sword intent into a powerful attack.
Legend had it that back in the day, when the Pure Yang Sovereign couldnât use true energy or his primordial spirit, he used this technique and killed three Dao Integration Realm experts with just his sword intent.
Of course, the Pure Yang Sovereignâs sword intent was far superior to his.
However, with his near grand success Sword Eight sword intent, breaking Yu Zunâs radiant armor was naturally not a problem.
âSenior Brother Yu Zun, are you alright? Hehe, the result is clear. I have an appointment with Fairy Yu Xuan, so Iâll take my leave first!â
Yang Chen cupped his hands toward Yu Zun, his face displaying a warm and caring smile before turning to walk toward Yu Xuanâs stone platform.
But this smile, in Yu Zunâs eyes, was blatant mockery.
An appointment with my cousin!
âDamn you, Iâll kill you!â
Yu Zun roared lowly, his eyes flashing with ferocious killing intent. He, Yu Zun, a dignified Holy Spirit Physique at the fourth stage of the Void Refinement Realm, had been injured by a first-stage Void Refinement cultivator with a single sword strike.
This was a humiliation beyond compare. Only by killing this bastard could he restore his Dao heart, rebuild his invincible belief, and ensure that his cousin remained his alone, never to be anyone elseâs.
Cracks began to appear on Yu Zunâs body, from which blood seeped out in large quantities. The blood burned furiously as radiant divine brilliance burst out in waves. His aura surged rapidly.
âDie!â Yu Zun let out a low roar, once again condensing a radiant spear, thrusting it directly at Yang Chen. This time, the attack was simple and straightforward, but filled with murderous intent.
âXiao Chen, watch out!â Zhan Qiuyun urgently warned. Although Yang Chen had his back turned to Yu Zun, his divine sense had been locked onto him the entire time.
After all, this was exactly the outcome he wanted. Opportunities to plunder like this werenât common; he needed to take advantage as much as possible.
Moreover, he intended to utterly shatter Yu Zunâs invincible Dao heart.
Suddenly, Yang Chen spun around and threw a punch.
No true energy, no sword techniques. Just a punch.
A solid punch collided with the incoming radiant spear.
Bang!
The murderous spear shattered into two pieces. One piece even embedded itself into Yu Zunâs chest, pinning him directly onto the stone pillar at the edge of the Martial Arts Arena.
Blood flowed down the pillar, leaving him in a state even more pitiful than the earlier Dugu Wutian.
[Ding! The host has gravely injured Yu Zun with one punch, completely shattering his invincible Dao heart. Yu Zunâs state of mind collapsed, and he fainted. 1,000 points of Providence Luck were plundered, and the host has gained 1,000 VPs!]
The systemâs voice rang out. Yang Chenâs eyes narrowed slightly.
Shattering Yu Zunâs invincible heart only plundered 1,000 points. It seemed that further plundering in this aspect would be more challenging moving forward.
Yang Chenâs gaze shifted to Yu Yourong, who was seated on a stone platform. His mind conjured the image of the stunning beauty and her extraordinary figure.
His lips curled into a sly grin. It seemed that if he wanted to continue plundering Yu Zunâs luck value, he would need to start with his aunt.
Heh heh.
