Chapter 621: Chapter 628: Excessive! How Could This be Possible? (Third Update)
“How could this be possible?”
Both Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow were left aghast as they witnessed Yang Zhen. In the midst of the surroundings’ tumultuous qi waves, a terrifying aura erupted once again. Almost instantly, it pushed back all the power of heaven and earth, leaving everyone in a state of disbelief.
“No way, this kid clearly unleashed all the True Essence within his body, this… this is even more profound than the essence within myself, has he been cultivating since he was in his mother’s womb?”
“Was it not the full strength of our friend Yang just now?” Gong Sanhe was muttering to himself, utterly bewildered.
The True Essence Yang Zhen emanated at this moment was even more fearsome and profound than the two senior practitioners. The most unbelievable part was that the terrifying True Essence that exploded from Yang Zhen’s body was not only ferociously torrential and incredibly profound, but also… extremely pure!
As everyone knew, if a practitioner used too much external force during cultivation, their inner True Essence would become cluttered, hence the longer the cultivation period, the more profound and pure the True Essence inside the practitioner becomes.
Yang Zhen, who was now almost as old as the two seniors put together, had True Essence inside him that was even more profound and pure than the seniors’. Even seeing with their own eyes, it made one incredible.
How old was Yang Zhen?
At the age of only twenty or so, if he continued to cultivate for another hundred years, wouldn’t he touch the sky?
Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow exchanged a glance, both seeing incredulity in each other’s eyes, and simultaneously exclaimed, “Such horror!”
Just then, in mid-air, there was a sudden and deafening boom. A stream of wildly surging power from heaven and earth burst open, angrily rumbling towards Yang Zhen.
Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow were startled and hurriedly shouted, “Yang, watch out!”
At the infinite power of heaven and earth came down from the sky, as if it was the authority of heaven and earth, the mounting pressure made everyone’s faces change significantly.
This force, although not naturally produced between heaven and earth but evolved from the Three Lives Panlong Array, did not lack in terms of terror.
Seeing such a terrifying force suddenly erupting in mid-air, Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow were both greatly shocked. They ignored what Yang Zhen had said about not wanting anyone to interfere, and hurriedly rushed to his aid.
Boom!
As destructive winds stirred up in mid-air, the turbulent power surged towards Yang Zhen. Just as Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow were about to step in, it crashed onto Yang Zhen with a loud boom.
“Damn it!”
Ding Chun exclaimed, seeing the two seniors rushing forward. He shouted hastily, “Elder Gong, be careful, Death Shadow!”
With the impact of such terrifying power, even if Yang Zhen survived, he would still be seriously injured. In this situation, if Elder Gong and Death Shadow were hurt as well, there would assuredly be no chance to enter the Heavenly Machine Lock.
It was unbearable to watch the Heavenly Machine Lock right before their eyes but not be able to go in. Even Wen Yuning had visible worry on her face and in her anxious state, she grit her teeth and rushed forward.
“Junior Sister, no!”
Ding Chun’s face changed, and without a choice, he followed suit.
But just as Ding Chun moved, he heard a heartily triumphant laugh.
Yang Zhen’s voice sounded from within the formidable wave of power engulfing him, “Damn, this is so satisfying, what else you got, bring it on!”
Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow slammed their brakes, stopped, and looked at each other in confusion upon hearing Yang Zhen’s laughter.
“Is he OK?”
“He’s OK?”
Both questioned in unison then immediately exclaimed, “How could that be?”
Even Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow, let alone Yang Zhen, would have suffered serious injuries under the force of such violent pressure.
It was not until this moment that Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow suddenly realized that although Yang Zhen was young, he was indeed at the peak cultivation of the Mahayana Phase. Furthermore, the profundity of the True Essence within him even exceeded theirs a bit.
Excessive!
How could it be like this?
How will we two old seniors endure this?
Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow kept their heads down in disappointment as they walked away. They turned back to glance at Yang Zhen and marveled at him.
Watching Yang Zhen standing tall amidst the turbulent atmosphere, the Great Missing Sword in his hands explosively unleashed a wild, dark energy. As the Evil Shadow Black Glutton roared, the oppressive air around them began to surge fiercely. Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow visibly trembled, a bitter smile flickered across their faces.
Especially Death Shadow, who had experienced the terrifying power of the Great Missing Sword in Yang Zhen’s hands. Now that Yang Zhen had drawn the sword, he paused, fascinated, watching Yang Zhen confronting the universe alone.
However, something completely unexpected happened at this moment.
The Evil Shadow Black Glutton roared skywards. Its furious roars reverberated to the heavens, the furious pressure of the world seemed even more wrathful. The raging waves of air in the half-sky began to churn and roil. Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow changed color as the two dragon-like formations on the sides of the canyon began to vibrate and, surrounded by clusters of Three-life Flowers, bloomed!
Pink mist emerged from the Three-life Flowers, blending into the world in the blink of an eye, rushing towards everyone.
“Flee, young friend Yang Decao, the Three-life Flowers have bloomed. Retreat now!” shouted Death Shadow anxiously while retreating instantly.
Gong Sanhe also shouted and turned to Ding Chun and Wen Yuning, “You two, quickly retreat.”
With the opening of the Three-life Flowers, the Three Lives Panlong Array was completely activated. Even for practitioners at the peak of the Mahayana Phase, once they fell in, there would be no chance of escaping intact, such was the power of the Heavenly Machine Array.
Buzz–––!
A sound that seemed like the roaring of the heavens and earth resonated. The chaotic power of the heavens and earth, gradually shrouded itself in a layer of eerie pink, making one’s hair stand on end. Regardless of the distance, Gong Sanhe and the others felt an eerie sensation, a feeling of impending death.
Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow exchanged glances. It had been so long since they had felt such an aura that their faces turned pale.
With their level of cultivation, it would be a blessing in disguise if they could change the predicament and ensure their own safety.
Ding Chun and Wen Yuning didn’t need any reminders from Gong Sanhe. When they saw the opening of the Three-life Flowers, they rushed back where they came from.
Seeing that Yang Zhen still hadn’t retreated, the expressions on Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow’s faces changed again. Death Shadow smiled, showing his teeth and said to Gong Sanhe, “You should take those two kids and leave first.”
“And you?” Gong Sanhe’s face was marked with concern.
Death Shadow glanced in Yang Zhen’s direction where the turbulent air had obscured him, “Me? Of course, I am going to save Yang Xiaozi. I just swore an oath, if I abandon the young man and run for my life at this point, even if the heavens don’t punish me, how can I face the world?”
As he said this, Death Shadow smirked, saying: “But you are different, if I’m not mistaken, you barely know Yang Xiaozi, so you shouldn’t risk your life for him.”
“Bullshit!” Gong Sanhe snarled, pointing at Death Shadow, “Old fool, you think I’m the kind to betray trust?”
“Aren’t you?” retorted Death Shadow, smirking, “Let me tell you, my eyes…”
“Shut the fuck up!” snapped Gong Sanhe, ignoring Death Shadow. With a loud sound, he rushed towards Yang Zhen.
“Huh?”
Taken aback, Death Shadow hastily followed, shouting: “Wait for me, old man, let me tell you, my eyes really…”
“Fuck you, Shut up!”
Boom——!
Suddenly, a thunderous roar detonated amidst the terrifying airwaves. Frightening energy erupted and sent the two old men, caught off guard, stumbling.
After they steadied themselves, their faces changed and they said in shock, “What happened?”
The turbulent and chaotic atmosphere rolled and pitched, and from within, Yang Zhen’s sharp voice rang out:
“Desolate! Sky! Sacrifice!”
