"Hmph! With just your level of strength, you think you can hold back against me? Such arrogance! Show me whatever killing techniques you have, or there won't be another chance in the future." The corner of Ye Chen's mouth twitched with a cold smile, his tone full of mockery as he spoke.
"Trash, I admit I underestimated you, but do you really think you can defeat me? How naive. I'll make you understand just how foolish and ignorant you are." Lin Tian's expression had completely returned to calmness, and he grinned menacingly at Ye Chen.
Earlier, the reason his Huangyang True Intent was blocked by Ye Chen was that he hadn't gone all out.
Because he was afraid of accidentally crushing Ye Chen to death.
But now that he knew how strong Ye Chen's Divine Soul was, there was no need to hold back.
"Is that so? Then let's give it a try." With a thought, nine Golden Battle Swords shot out from Ye Chen's sleeve, infused with boundless mana, exuding an extremely sharp aura as if capable of cutting through anything.
Swish, swish, swish.
In an instant, the nine Golden Battle Swords joined with Ye Chen's nine Demon-Slaying Thunder Shuttles, streaking through the void like bolts of lightning, rushing toward Lin Tian.
"What? He can actually control eighteen Top Grade Magical Artifacts in one breath?" Wang Ming and the others' pupils contracted sharply, feeling a tingling in their scalps.
Know that just now, Ye Chen wielding only nine Demon-Slaying Thunder Shuttles was already able to unleash terrifying power.
Add the nine Golden Battle Swords, and how terrifying would his combat power become?
"Trash, don't be so arrogant." At this time, Lin Tian's face turned extremely grim, and he let out a furious roar.
At that moment, he sensed a hint of death threat coming from Ye Chen.
To him, this was a great humiliation.
Rumble.
The next moment, Lin Tian instinctively activated the sixth layer of Huangyang True Intent, forming a massive golden fireball hundreds of feet long above his head, like a scorching sun.
This time, however, he didn't split the golden fireball into five parts but directly pressed it forward.
Boom, boom, boom.
In a flash, the eighteen Top Grade Magical Artifacts controlled by Ye Chen clashed fiercely with the golden fireball, producing thunderous explosions.
Next, the space within a radius of tens of thousands of feet was engulfed by terrifying power, even leaving cracks in the void.
After a while, the terrifying scene finally began to disappear.
Yet, both Ye Chen and Lin Tian emerged unscathed, each unable to do anything against the other.
But Lin Tian's face was ashen, worse than a corpse's, as if he had swallowed a pile of dead flies.
It's important to know his cultivation was six small realms higher than Ye Chen's.
In theory, he should have easily crushed Ye Chen.
But even after pushing the sixth layer of Huangyang True Intent to its limit, he couldn't do anything to Ye Chen.
This was a humiliation he couldn't wash away for a lifetime.
"Damn it, this trash is growing rapidly. If not eradicated soon, he'll become a huge threat." Ji Yuan's eyes were fixed intently on Ye Chen, his body exuding a terrifying killing intent.
Even he had felt a hint of death from Ye Chen earlier.
This showed that Ye Chen's strength was starting to catch up to his.
The truly frightening thing is, Ye Chen was only seventeen or eighteen this year and already possessed such power.
If he continued to grow unchecked, who knows how terrifying he would become?
By then, not even the Venerable Golden Core would find it easy to eliminate Ye Chen.
So today, regardless of the cost, Ji Yuan was determined to cripple Ye Chen, leaving him no chance of recovery.
"Brother Lin, we don't need to waste time playing with this trash. Let's join forces and suppress him first." In the next moment, a terrifying glint flashed in Ji Yuan's eyes as he spoke to Lin Tian.
In the past, he would never have teamed up with anyone to suppress Ye Chen.
Because that to him was an utter disgrace.
But now, he couldn't care less about that.
As long as he could cripple Ye Chen, he'd use any means necessary.
"No need, let me handle him alone. If I can't even suppress this trash, how could I face anyone else?" To Ji Yuan's surprise, Lin Tian decisively rejected his request.
Understand that in terms of both cultivation and bloodline, he was far superior to Ye Chen.
If word got out that he and Ji Yuan had to team up to suppress Ye Chen, where would he hide his face?
Moreover, he hadn't yet unleashed his most powerful strength.
He believed that if he went all out, he could certainly suppress this trash Ye Chen.
"Brother Ji Yuan, don't forget our brother Lin Tian has awakened the Celestial Fire Giant Ape bloodline. Just unleashing his Bloodline Power would easily crush Ye Chen." Wang Ming coldly laughed on the side, full of confidence in Lin Tian's strength.
In his view, Lin Tian's greatest asset was not his Huangyang True Intent, but his Bloodline Power.
If he was willing to unleash his Bloodline Power, crushing Ye Chen would be a matter of moments.
"In that case, I'll leave this trash to Brother Lin. I'm sure Brother Lin won't disappoint me." Ji Yuan nodded in agreement.
In fact, he also believed Lin Tian had the capability to suppress Ye Chen.
The only reason so much time was wasted was that they initially underestimated Ye Chen.
If he just got serious, this trash Ye Chen wouldn't be able to last long.
"Trash, let me show you my Bloodline Power now." Just then, a dazzling red divine light burst forth from behind Lin Tian.
Roar!
Next, a terrifyingly loud beast roar echoed around everyone's ears like a thunderclap, making their eardrums ache.
This sound came from a giant ape.
This giant ape was over two hundred feet tall, its entire body covered in crimson fur, like a Flame Divine Mountain, towering above the earth, creating an unparalleled sense of oppression.
"Heavens! That's Lin Tian awakening the Celestial Fire Giant Ape bloodline."
"This bloodline, even among Earth Level First Grade bloodlines, is quite powerful and, in some respects, even more terrifying than Huang Long's Golden Chi Dragon." The spectators gasped in amazement, their eyes full of intense apprehension.
