Chapter 676: Chapter 440 Breakthrough! Shock! (Author’s Note)_3

Gazing at the object, Chen Yuan looked towards the direction of Tangshan in Qingzhou and said softly,

“Thank you all.”

There wasn’t much he could do, merely writing a letter to be delivered into the hands of Lady Xu, telling her to treat the common people a bit better within her capabilities, a task which Liu Zhengsong could undertake.

Any more than that, and it really would be difficult.

Many eyes were fixed on him, and moreover, he understood the principle that gratitude can turn to grudges over small matters, so he wouldn’t mismanage these relationships.

He solemnly stored the object away. Without it, he would have had to rely on the Qi Fortune Altar, which was his greatest support.

The support that dared him to enter the Sumeru Illusion Realm.

The journey he had made relied on his own efforts, that was true, but he could not deny the merit of the Qi Fortune Altar.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the Civilian Umbrella vanished straight away.

This time, he didn’t conceal it because at this moment, concealment would have been futile; when he had previously taken out the Civilian Umbrella, he had already revealed his possession of the Sumeru Treasure.

Besides, after this battle, he had gained enough strength to initially protect his treasures.

Not only the Heavenly Book, but also the Emperor Slaughter Saber.

Chen Yuan now no longer needed to hide as he had before. What did it matter if he had them?

As long as others couldn’t do anything about you, that’s what mattered.

Like Jiang He, had he not possessed the Divine Weapon Exterminating Immortal Sword even when his Cultivation was at the Core Realm level?

Who would dare to forcefully seize it then?

“Chen Qing Envoy!”

After a moment of stillness, a loud shout suddenly rang out.

Then, like the incoming tide, chants of “Chen Qing Envoy,” these three words, surged forth without ceasing.

In that moment, he was the center of the entire venue.

He had restored the face of the Central Plains, and fiercely challenged the hundred zhang tall Buddha’s Dharma Image.

In the eyes of those less worldly commoners, Chen Yuan was a supreme powerful figure.

His prestige had reached an exceedingly high level.

This was a scene many people could only dream of.

Moreover, it was foreseeable that as long as these commoners spread the news of today, his prestige would surge once more.

His name would shake the world!

Looking at the commoners in front of him, Chen Yuan made a fist with one hand and bowed deeply in gratitude.

It was with their help that he had shattered the Sumeru Illusion Realm earlier.

After the salutation, Chen Yuan’s gaze sharply turned towards Ito Ikeda, and he said calmly,

“I stated before we entered the Sumeru Illusion Realm, that once through, I would chop off your head to add to the festivities!”

Then he loudly exclaimed,

“You Japan servile cur, come forward and meet your fate!”

Such spirit-boosting words excited countless people, who all roared in unison,

“You Japan servile cur, come forward and meet your fate!”

“You Japan servile cur, come forward and meet your fate!”

“You Japan servile cur, come forward and meet your fate!”

The shouts were ear-splitting; at this moment, all the pent-up frustration and humiliation of the Capital’s citizens were released with their thundering roars. They were the subjects of the Heavenly Dynasty.

They had the right to call these foreign barbarians “servile curs!”

“Ikeda…”

Ito Shinsei slowly shook his head, signaling him not to step forward and admit defeat at this moment.

Chen Yuan, having now passed three challenges and shattered the Sumeru Illusion Realm, was at his peak morale and fighting spirit. Even though his Cultivation was only at the Void Core level, when combined with his Vajra Unbreakable Physical Body Cultivation,

His strength was undoubtedly no less than his own.

This time, it was very dangerous.

Ito Ikeda shook his head, pondering for a long while before saying,

“I am Japan’s number one genius, I cannot retreat, even in death I cannot retreat, Father, I hope you understand.”

“You…..”

“Father!”

Ito Shinsei took a deep breath, watching his eldest son’s resolute gaze, he said solemnly,

“Come back alive.”

Upon hearing this, Ito Ikeda grinned and nodded,

“The cherry blossoms back home are about to bloom, you know how much I enjoy watching them.”

After speaking, he turned his head, took a step forward, and faced Chen Yuan with a solemn salute,

“Chen Yuan, come and fight!”

He harbored intense hatred for Chen Yuan, for it was he who had thwarted the years of scheming by the three major families of Japan, shattered the Sumeru Illusion Realm, killed the Yagyu Double Blades, and also he who had always looked down upon Japan.

But…..

The opponent’s strength deserved his respect.

He had previously struggled through the Sumeru Illusion Realm with the guidance of his elders, but Chen Yuan was different, he went through without any help, and what he faced was the most difficult challenge of them all.

Such strength was admirable.

However, this did not mean that he would show any mercy; only by killing this man could he reverse the losing trend, otherwise, after today, the Japan Martial Artists would be the laughingstock of the Central Plains Martial Artists for many years.

This was absolutely intolerable.

“Fight!”

Without any superfluous words, and no pleasantries, there was only one word, “Fight!”

And this word alone was enough to reveal his attitude.

Ito Ikeda, he was determined to kill.

Being endowed with Qi Fortune was a declaration of his impending death, no one could stand in the way.

Besides, his previous demeanor had greatly annoyed Ito, and only by taking off his head could the frustrations from the Sumeru Illusion Realm be relieved.

Their confrontation was on the verge of triggering.

There were no referees, just slaughter.

The brightness came from the unleashed Sword Light, and the howling winds.

The storm was gathering.

Chen Yuan and Ito Ikeda, each standing on one side, collided like two shooting stars with ferocious force.

Neither Chen Yuan nor Ito Ikeda dared to be careless in the slightest.

No matter what, Ito Ikeda was a warrior of the Heavenly Core Level, and with his current strength, while it wasn’t difficult to resist, killing him was still challenging. However, he had just experienced a refining of the heart in the Sumeru Illusion Realm.

With a different mindset, his fighting spirit had reached its peak.

Furthermore, with the support of those civilians, Chen Yuan unleashed one hundred and twenty percent of his strength, pressing the Heavenly Core expert into a disadvantage as soon as they exchanged blows.

To Ito Ikeda, Chen Yuan was not to be underestimated.

He dared not be lax in facing this top genius of the Central Plains, who had just passed through the Sumeru Illusion Realm; and his opponent’s displayed strength also greatly surprised him.

Void Core versus Heavenly Core.

From the very start of their confrontation, he found himself at an absolute disadvantage.

It was simply unimaginable!
