"Want to suppress me? Yet you don’t know if you have the power!" Zhang Chen looked at Zhao Lie with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Even without invoking the Sun True Flame, with his own tenth-tier strength, he would never be inferior to the Po Jun Star Zhao Lie in front of him.
"Zhang Chen, quickly dodge! Run! Zhao Lie is a tenth-tier powerhouse, definitely not someone you can handle!" Zhou Qiucheng saw Zhang Chen blocking in front of him, his eyes showed a touch of emotion, and he continuously urged Zhang Chen to leave.
"Dodge? And where can I go? As for escaping, this place has already been suppressed by the Blood Sea Array of Yellow Heaven Dao, where can I escape to?" Zhang Chen said lightly.
Even if he really disregarded the current situation and directly used the Divine Techniques to escape, would Yellow Heaven Dao allow it?
Would Yellow Heaven Dao allow him to leave?
Yellow Heaven Dao would absolutely not agree!
"Whether I have the power, you’ll know soon." Zhao Lie laughed coldly upon hearing Zhang Chen’s words, a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes: "I hope later when I break your bones, you still can speak as boldly as now."
Zhao Lie’s Red Tassel Spear cut a fiery red trail through the air, stabbing toward Zhang Chen’s head, intending to pierce his ear.
Looking at the Red Tassel Spear shooting toward him, Zhang Chen looked cold-eyed; he could see that Zhao Lie did not take him seriously, as the spear straight for his ear was just a cat-and-mouse game.
"Damn it! The feeling of being underestimated is really unpleasant!" Zhang Chen looked at the Red Tassel Spear coming at him, the next moment his Celestial Measuring Ruler slightly fluctuated, clearly Zhang Chen stood still, yet the Red Tassel Spear inexplicably brushed past his front.
This scene fell into Zhao Lie’s eyes, filling his gaze with disbelief; he had great faith in his hand, even more in his spear. Practicing from five years old until now, for twenty years, the Red Tassel Spear in his hand would never deviate the slightest. If he wanted to pierce Zhang Chen’s ear, it would never hit his eye.
This confidence came from decades of Martial Dao cultivation day after day, but now as the Red Tassel Spear missed Zhang Chen’s ear and slid past, Zhao Lie was dumbfounded.
When a spear wielder no longer trusts his hand, when a martial artist no longer believes in his Martial Dao intuition, his Martial Dao cultivation is already half ruined.
Moreover, he was facing Zhang Chen, a real master, a moment of distraction could reverse the situation.
Zhang Chen’s Celestial Measuring Ruler cut through the void, taking advantage of Zhao Lie’s distraction, he smashed toward Zhao Lie’s head, if this strike landed, it might be brain matter splatter, like a watermelon exploding.
But at the critical moment, a point of starlight flickered at Zhao Lie’s brow, bringing him back to reality, his Red Tassel Spear instinctively blocked, intending to stop Zhang Chen’s attack with the ruler.
Zhao Lie was confident that this block would definitely stop the opponent’s ruler, even allowing the spear to twist and pierce the opponent’s heart.
Seeing Zhao Lie’s confident block, Zhang Chen had to praise Zhao Lie whose Martial Dao intuition was superb, the block was flawless, any other opponent might have died with regret — if only he hadn’t encountered Zhang Chen.
The scale on the Celestial Measuring Ruler slightly flashed, the silver-white ruler narrowly missed Zhao Lie’s block, striking his shoulder, causing an arm to explode and be absorbed by the Blood Sea Array.
"How is this possible!!!" Zhao Lie looked as if he had seen a ghost, rapidly retreating, staring at Zhang Chen with disbelief, then at his own severed arm, his eyes reddened.
Even a great cultivator high above, once an arm is severed, unless possessing the power of flesh rebirth, he would be ruined.
And there hasn’t been heard of any treasure that can regenerate flesh yet.
"How could this happen!!!" Zhao Lie ignored the bleeding wound, dumbly looking at his Red Tassel Spear, filled with disbelief.
His Martial Dao will was collapsing, at two crucial moments his Martial Dao had errors?
"Die!"
While Zhao Lie was dumbfounded, Zhang Chen wasn’t, his Celestial Measuring Ruler once again smashed toward Zhao Lie’s head.
Since he had already struck, of course he must ensure a kill with one hit, his Celestial Measuring Ruler was an Innate Spiritual Treasure; unless previously avoided due to Martial Dao intuition, Po Jun Star Zhao Lie would have already been ended by Zhang Chen’s ruler.
Watching Zhang Chen attacking again, Zhao Lie’s eyes instantly reddened: "Zhang Chen, you bastard, this won’t end here! You probably don’t know, the real methods of a tenth-tier powerhouse."
Faced with Zhang Chen’s attacking ruler, Zhao Lie dared not block it hard, rapidly retreating ten zhang away as starlight at his brow flickered brilliantly, the next moment the brilliant starlight transformed into a mystical trace, beginning to spread from Zhao Lie’s brow.
As the mystical trace flashed, Zhao Lie’s surrounding Qi Mechanism began to rapidly climb, unexpectedly moving toward eleventh-tier.
"Star God’s power?" Zhang Chen looked at Zhao Lie’s incessantly rising Qi Mechanism, a hint of curiosity in his eyes; he had to admit, he underestimated the Star God’s methods.
The next moment, Zhang Chen coldly smiled, the Blood Control Technique directly activated, disrupting Zhao Lie’s Bloodline Power, causing Zhao Lie’s Qi Blood to flow in reverse, his heartbeat unexpectedly pausing, and the Power of Star Origin gathered within him unexpectedly dispersed.
"Damn it, how could this happen?" Zhao Lie was stunned, his eyes wide open in shock, the mark on his forehead at this moment transforming back into a bright point.
"Your own cultivation is just Ninth Rank, even with the support of the Power of the Stars, it’s just Tenth Tier. You actually vainly attempt to use a Secret Technique to temporarily gain Eleventh Tier power, truly laughable. All of the power is borrowed by you, nothing but a castle in the sky, appearing strong but actually easy to defeat!" Zhang Chen sneered.
He himself had the Blood Control Technique which was a Tenth Tier skill, and the other was a phony reliant on external force, why should he compare with himself?
The most crucial thing is that the opponent dared to display a Secret Technique in front of him, he wasn’t a fool, how could he give the opponent a chance to unleash his big move?
This is a real battle, not a novel.
"It was you! You interrupted my Secret Technique!" Zhao Lie glared angrily at Zhang Chen, his eyes full of shock and fury: "Your strength... your strength... is at least Tenth Tier."
To be able to interrupt the casting of my Secret Technique, and still compete with me, it is at least an existence of Tenth Tier.
Moreover, there’s a problem with the other’s weapon!
Don’t look at my body, which seemed like a pile of tofu under Zhang Chen’s blow, but is my body really that weak?
I am a Star God, a physique tempered by the Power of the Stars, even compared to the Divine Body of a Tenth Tier expert, I am by no means inferior, so why is it that when confronted by the opponent, I become tofu?
Behind Zhang Chen, Zhou Qiucheng was also dumbfounded at this time, looking at Zhang Chen’s back with disbelief, and couldn’t help exclaiming in shock: "Are you truly a Tenth Tier expert?"
That is a Tenth Tier expert!
And without relying on Divine Dao external force, reaching Tenth Tier, such existence is extremely rare in the world.
Do you really think Tenth Tier experts are like cabbages?
Before the Divine Dao appeared, Ninth Rank Yang God experts could already dominate one side, calling themselves the pinnacle of the world.
Among those of the same rank, a Tenth Tier expert relying on genuine abilities is definitely stronger than a Tenth Tier relying on Incense Faith.
One depends on their own strength, the other relies on external force, the two cannot be compared at all.
At this time Zhao Lie suffered a defeat, knowing he was facing a life-and-death crisis, without saying a word, turned to flee.
"Can you escape?" Zhang Chen looked at Zhao Lie’s back, eyes filled with mockery: "Where do you think you’re going, you scoundrel?"
Zhang Chen infused Innate Qi into the Celestial Measuring Ruler, then activated the Celestial Measuring Ruler to distort space, the next moment seeing the Celestial Measuring Ruler transform into a silver-white light, piercing through the void and attacking Zhao Lie.
"You brat, how dare you!"
Gu Mingyue shouted angrily, the Blood Sea Array rolled, countless blood-red threads flew out, entangling Zhang Chen’s Celestial Measuring Ruler.
And Zhao Lie took the opportunity, his figure flashing and disappearing into the endless Sea of Blood.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Chen furrowed his brows, eyes showing discontent, unexpectedly his attack did not keep Zhao Lie, allowing the other to escape.
Above the blood cloud, Huang Chao, witnessing Zhang Chen’s immense Divine Power, was also stunned, mouth wide in disbelief. He knew Zhang Chen was a powerful figure, but never imagined Zhang Chen was so strong, even Zhao Lie was defeated within a few moves, nearly losing his life.
"You actually possess Tenth Tier power! You’re a Tenth Tier expert!!!" Gu Mingyue stared in disbelief at Zhang Chen below, eyes filled with shock.
He had met Zhang Chen many times, yet never saw through Zhang Chen’s depths, if Zhang Chen suddenly turned on him, wouldn’t he be finished?
Zhang Chen paid no heed to Gu Mingyue’s astonishment, instead, his eyes swept through the void, finally focusing on the Celestial Measuring Ruler, looking at the blood-red threads wrapped around it, Zhang Chen couldn’t help but praise: "Truly worthy of the Blood Sea Array, it’s indeed powerful."
As the master of Blood Dao, the stronger the Blood Sea Array, the happier he was.
The next moment, Zhang Chen waved his hand, the Celestial Measuring Ruler vanished from within the blood-red tentacles and was held by Zhang Chen in his hand.
"Even if you are a Tenth Tier expert, so what? I am an Eleventh Tier cultivator and I have the Blood Sea Array in hand, bolstered by an endless Sea of Blood. It’s not just because you are a Tenth Tier cultivator, even if you were an Eleventh Tier cultivator, today you will find it difficult to escape death." Gu Mingyue above, eyes filled with an inexplicable meaning, advised Zhang Chen: "Zhang Chen, I can give you a chance, as long as you acknowledge me as your master, submit One Soul and One Spirit under my control, today you can avoid death. In the future, you will become a Great Cultivator of my Yellow Heaven Dao, and when my Yellow Heaven Dao achieves its ambition, your benefits will be innumerable."
