Chapter 2654: Chapter 2628: Here it Comes! (Five Updates)

“Attack!”

The Vermilion Bird Elder shouted loudly, and the four elders once again launched an attack toward Ye Chen, along with the divine soul of the Sword God of Six Paths, Feng Qingyang, which lingered around Ye Chen!

The illusory power enveloping Ye Chen gathered, condensing into the form of the Sword God of Six Paths.

With a serene, carefree smile, the Six Paths Heavenly Sword Intent emerged, and Feng Qingyang’s divine soul burned with its final brilliance…

“Ye Chen, my disciple, what you saw earlier was merely an appetizer. Over these days I’ve followed you, I unexpectedly discovered the essence of sword intent at this moment. Now let me teach you one last lesson: Six Paths as One—The Ultimate Sword. Witness its true power!”

The sword swept across the Nine Heavens, and celestial phenomena arose!

In this moment, even the tribulation itself paled under the might of this sword…

Sword qi surged in all directions, ripples spread through space, and under the force of this strike, everything shattered.

The four late-stage Disaster Slaying Realm elders from the Heavenly Dao Palace, completely suppressed, had their combined attack obliterated as if it were nothing. Their bodies, too, were engulfed by sword qi…

A lone figure fled swiftly toward the depths of the Poison Cave—it was the severely weakened Vermilion Bird Elder, his garments in tatters and his aura reduced to below the Great Void Realm. Blood gushed from his mouth, leaving a long trail across the air.

Elder Fu Mo and the others were utterly lifeless, their bodies shattered, even their divine souls annihilated by that Ultimate Sword, leaving no chance for resurrection.

“Master!” Ye Chen cried out in anguish, his voice filled with sorrow and despair.

At the same time as unleashing the Ultimate Sword, the divine soul of the Sword God of Six Paths, Feng Qingyang, burned completely, dissipating into the heavens and earth.

“Ah… just like the passing breeze. It was merely a divine soul,” a gentle sigh echoed. “Do not let Six Paths’ sacrifice be in vain. Ye Chen, focus on weathering the tribulation.”

“In the future, perhaps there will be a chance to reunite with Six Paths’ true form.”

“You are the hope of all of us.” A soft sigh was heard as a figure emerged.

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned.

This figure was neither the Ancient Medical God, nor Kuang Wu Dominator, nor the newly ascended powerhouse!

It turned out to be the tombstone from the Kunlun Mountains—the one that once displayed anomalies and granted power to Little Gold!

Only now did Ye Chen finally notice the engraved words on the tombstone that he had previously ignored.

“Xiao Ling.”

At this moment, even Little Gold seemed to realize something, becoming unusually still.

It was as though it was awaiting some kind of ceremony.

Although Ye Chen harbored many doubts, he still spoke:

“Senior, please return, quickly return to the Samsara Graveyard! I beg you!”

“I can do this!”

Blood and tears welled in Ye Chen’s eyes, his voice trembling with grief.

With a gratified expression, Xiao Ling shook his head and said, “I cannot return. The moment I decided to leave the graveyard alongside Six Paths’ divine soul, the outcome was already sealed. I can’t hold out much longer either…”

“My departure will allow Little Gold to truly break free from its shell.”

The divine soul escaped the Samsara Graveyard and descended here with Ye Chen as the medium. Both the Sword God of Six Paths and his divine soul began to collapse the moment they arrived. Even without the burning of divine soul to unleash power, they would still perish completely.

“Senior…”

“Do not waste any more time! Are you planning to let Six Paths’ sacrifice be for nothing?!” Xiao Ling roared, cutting off Ye Chen.

The eighth heavenly tribulation had already fully formed—it took the shape of a giant eye.

“The Eye of Heavenly Dao! It’s actually this legendary tribulation! And this is merely the eighth stage… you must be careful. We can help you with external tribulations, but this heavenly tribulation… you’ll have to rely solely on yourself!” Xiao Ling said solemnly, looking at Ye Chen with concern.

Gritting his teeth, Ye Chen stood up, calming his thoughts and circulating his spiritual energy, preparing for the tribulation.

Earlier, the seventh heavenly tribulation descended first; Ye Chen managed to endure it with his own power. Later, the four Heavenly Dao Palace elders’ combined strike followed, but it was intercepted by the Sword God of Six Paths.

Due to the Fire of Fusion offsetting most of the heavenly tribulation’s power, the wounds inflicted by the seventh tribulation on Ye Chen were minor.

“Burn the laws, awaken the bloodline…”

In the sky, the giant eye had already locked onto Ye Chen, the power of the “Eye of Heavenly Dao” radiating an intensely dangerous aura. Without hesitation, Ye Chen activated a life-risking card at the cost of damaging his foundation.

Ye Chen formed seals with both hands, causing nomological power to surge around him. The laws of slaughter, destruction, space, and time—all the rule forces he had initially grasped—condensed around him, protecting him and amplifying his combat strength.

Burning nomological power would create a “gap” in his cultivation level, and his strength would undoubtedly plummet.

However, nomological power could be cultivated anew, and over time, recovery was possible.

This Great Void Destructive Thunder Tribulation sought Ye Chen’s life, and survival took precedence over all else!

Ye Chen had already awakened both the “Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline” and the “Soaring Wind Divine Vein” within his reincarnation bloodline. Activating this bloodline power significantly boosted his combat capabilities, but it came with severe repercussions, making it a last-resort measure.

“It’s coming!” Xiao Ling’s gaze fixed on the Eye of Heavenly Dao, his expression tense, deeply worried for Ye Chen.

In stark contrast to the thunderous pomp of the previous heavenly tribulations, this terrifying eighth tribulation carried no trace of thunder or lightning.

All that came was a fine ray of light—so thin it resembled a strand of hair—emanating from the enormous eye. It seemed exceedingly slow, yet it traversed space in an instant, directly penetrating Ye Chen’s head!

“The Eye of Heavenly Dao—attacking from within, burning the soul and seizing the essence. If you fail this tribulation, the consequence is complete eradication of your divine soul. And this isn’t even the final stage—the Heavenly Dao truly leaves no room for survival!” Xiao Ling lamented, his gaze settling on Ye Chen, his expression softening slightly.

“The Samsara Master—someone even the Heavenly Dao, manipulators of all life, fears. I eagerly await your capabilities!”

Within the space of his mind, the ray of light headed straight toward Ye Chen’s divine soul!

It carried no detectable power fluctuation, seemingly the direct manifestation of the Heavenly Dao Will. It bypassed all defenses, targeting the divine soul alone—it was devastatingly lethal!

Ye Chen’s response proved effective. Within the mental space, spiritual energy was useless, and physical defenses were even weaker—but nomological power and bloodline power came from within himself, making them capable of resisting the Heavenly Dao’s light!

Two colors of radiance emerged—one faint yellow, one green—the vivid manifestation of Ye Chen’s activated Scarlet Dust and Soaring Wind bloodlines. The bloodline power enveloped him like armor, shielding his divine soul and intercepting the ray of light.

The Heavenly Dao’s light was like a fine needle, while the bloodline power was akin to a balloon, caving inward under the pressure. Yet, it was unable to fully nullify the light’s destructive force, teetering on the edge of collapse…

At this moment, Ye Chen’s divine soul stood tall, hands forming a seal, as waves of intangible, vast energies fluctuated.

Law forces of slaughter, destruction, death, and time converged, transforming into a strand of light within Ye Chen’s divine soul palms—it was identical to the Heavenly Dao’s light, only now tinged with black and red hues.

Ye Chen “grasped” the nomological light and guided it toward his crown, letting it collide with the incoming Heavenly Dao ray. The two forces met, dissolving each other bit by bit!

Rumble!

Ye Chen’s mental realm trembled violently—the clash of energies at this elevated level of “Dao” almost caused his entire mind to collapse.

At last…

A single thread of dazzling light pierced straight into Ye Chen’s divine soul, the Heavenly Dao’s light proving superior to the nomological light, and breaking through the protective bloodline force, invading Ye Chen’s soul!
