The best medical god in the city

Chapter 12590 The Will of the Earth
The extreme burst of the Burial Technique caused a backlash against Ye Chen's body, his upper clothes were obliterated like dust, revealing his muscular physique.

These once-muscular bodies quickly withered away at a rate visible to the naked eye.

This is the backlash brought about by the "Burial" technique!
Ye Chen took a deep breath, regulated his breathing, and then wanted to take advantage of the power of the Burial Technique to pursue Abandoned Heaven Monarch.

"Ahhh-"

But at that moment, a sharp and shrill scream came from a distant arena.

The screams were so piercing that Ye Chen glanced sideways and saw that they were coming from the arena where Ji Siqing was.

Ji Siqing was fighting against Liu Daojun, and the two were evenly matched. Suddenly, Liu Daojun took a few steps back and then let out a shrill scream. His skin and flesh tore open, and black hellish reincarnation energy flowed out.

Six Paths Lord's eyes were filled with fear. He suddenly stared straight at Ye Chen and shouted:
"Do not……"

"You are……"

"Ahhh—Forbidden, forbidden?"

He seemed to be cursed, screaming as he staggered backward until he finally fell off the stage.

This scene was so astonishing that even the people from the Temple of the End were stunned and speechless, failing to catch Liu Daojun and letting him fall heavily to the ground.

Everyone assumed he was possessed by an evil spirit, and then looked at Ye Chen with some doubt.

Those present were all sharp-eyed individuals; they could vaguely perceive a connection between cause and effect.

The Six Paths Lord was suddenly possessed by an evil spirit, and it seems that Ye Chen is behind this!
Ye Chen was also taken aback. His eyesight was sharper, and he realized that the Six Paths Lord's possession was indeed related to him.

It was he who used the Burial Technique, unleashing unparalleled Reincarnation Qi, which actually injured the Six Paths Lord.

"This is my path, the path of reincarnation, the only path of reincarnation."

"If anyone studies the path of reincarnation without my permission, they will violate the taboo and suffer the consequences."

Ye Chen, with his clear Dao mind, had already roughly guessed the cause and effect.

He is the supreme master of reincarnation, and any martial artist in the world who wishes to cultivate the reincarnation method must obtain his permission.

If you practice in secret, you will violate the taboo and suffer a backlash.

This wasn't a taboo set by Ye Chen himself; it was because his Daoist techniques had progressed to a certain level, and he had become an existence akin to the "Heavenly Dao."

Anyone who privately practices the cycle of reincarnation is committing blasphemy against the divine authority and will inevitably suffer calamity and punishment.

"I am still a long way from reaching the Heavenly Dao Realm and becoming the Heavenly Dao Master."

"I never imagined that I would have attained enlightenment. It is truly incredible."

"However, I have a vague feeling that there is another path of reincarnation besides this one... But which force could it be?"

Ye Chen was amazed. He never expected that he, a mere sixth-level Divine Illumination Realm cultivator, had already attained enlightenment.

Or perhaps it was the power of the Burial Technique that caused the damage.

Ye Chen couldn't be completely sure for a moment, but he knew that if Liu Daojun fell off the stage, then Ji Siqing had won.

Of the three arenas, Ji Siqing's battle ended the fastest.

Her victory means she's in the top three!
Ye Chen and Qi Tianjun have yet to determine a winner.

Ye Chen had just thought of many things, but everything happened in the blink of an eye. He continued to swing his sword and assassinate Qitianjun.

At this moment, the power of the Burial Technique was still present, making it the perfect opportunity for Ye Chen to pursue.

Under the suppression of the Burial Word Technique, Qitianjun felt difficulty breathing. Seeing Ye Chen chasing after him, he snorted, his right hand tightly gripping the Yin-Yang Divine Sword, while his left arm suddenly dropped.

"Slay the dead and burn their blood, by imperial decree!"

Suddenly, his entire left arm withered and shrank, the flesh and blood completely withered, and his left arm became like a dry twig.

All the essence of flesh and blood was burned away in an instant and poured into the Yin-Yang Divine Sword.

Buzz!

The Yin-Yang Divine Sword hummed and burst forth with a terrifying sword light. Qi Tianjun's eyes were sharp as he swung his sword and shattered Ye Chen's Burial Technique with a single strike, forcing Ye Chen to retreat.

"That's... insane."

Ye Chen sighed inwardly when he saw Qi Tianjun's withered left arm.

This Abandoned Heavenly Lord has completely gone mad; he actually sacrificed one of his arms just to retaliate against Ye Chen.

After shattering the Burial Technique with a single sword strike, the Abandoned Heaven Monarch's sword momentum remained undiminished, its blade shimmering with a blood-red light of slaughter, as it slashed straight toward Ye Chen's neck.

"Let's see who's crazier!"

Ye Chen felt an overwhelming killing intent approaching; if he didn't fight desperately, he would be killed by Qitianjun.

"A thousand swords and myriad paths, all returning to one origin!"

Ye Chen held his sword upright in front of his chest, and in an instant, he unleashed all the sword techniques he had ever practiced, fusing them all into one.

The Abyss Sword Dao, the Emperor Sword Dao, the Annihilation Sword Dao, Frost Moon Illuminating the River, the Heavenly Battle Great Slaughter Sword, the Heavenly Slash, the Nine Swords of Heaven Slash, the Still Water Sword, and so on—all the sword daos of the past were fused together by Ye Chen in an instant.

Roar--

A deafening dragon roar resounded, and the aura of the Great Dao Dragon Emperor appeared. The phantom of a five-clawed golden dragon hovered above Ye Chen's head. The light of the Supreme Word Technique flickered, and countless runes containing supreme aura bloomed on the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword.

Ye Chen did not actually intend to use the authority of the Great Dao Dragon Emperor, but the thousand sword paths were combined into one, bursting out a supreme aura. The supreme Emperor Sword Path was about to be born. The authority of the Great Dao Dragon Emperor resonated with it and automatically shone.

The five-clawed golden dragon landed on the Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword and completely merged with the thousand sword techniques!
What kind of swordsmanship is it to melt a thousand swords into one?
If it had to be named, Ye Chen would call it:
The Way of the Emperor's Sword!

An incredibly glorious scene unfolded: the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword in Ye Chen's hand was surrounded by countless golden lights, resembling a straight pillar of light that shot straight into the sky.

Endless sword runes floated and flickered within the pillar of light.

The powerful figures such as Yin Shen, Tianwen Ancestor, and Ren Feifan, as well as countless spectators, were all utterly shocked by the aura of the sword in Ye Chen's hands.

As for Qitianjun, he was also completely shocked. Witnessing the brilliance of Ye Chen's Emperor Sword, his eyes were almost blinded, and his hand holding the sword suddenly became weak.

His path was suppressed.

His swordsmanship was completely suppressed by Ye Chen!
Ye Chen forged the Thousand Swords Dao Technique and transformed it into the Emperor Sword.

Once the Emperor's Sword is drawn, all the heavens and myriad realms will submit!

"All swords return to their origin, the God-Slaying Emperor Sword slashes!"

Ye Chen let out a long roar, rode his sword and broke through the air to slash at Qitianjun.

When he shouted "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin," it was as if he held the mandate of heaven, commanding all the heavens. At least half of the audience, that is, five million people, had their swords summoned to Ye Chen's side, out of control.

Ye Chen's Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword is the Emperor, while the millions of flying swords summoned by him are his subjects!

With the Emperor Sword at its head and millions of flying swords as its subjects, a magnificent scene unfolded. The overwhelming power of "Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Their Own Source" and the earth-shattering killing intent all converged on Qitianjun.

This is Ye Chen's Path of the Emperor Sword!
The Emperor's Sword is unleashed, its sword intent capable of slaying gods!
It is called "God-Slaying Emperor Sword Slash"!
The overwhelming power of "Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Their Origin" stunned Qitianjun on the spot.

Although limited by the earth's veins, the power of this "God-Slaying Emperor Sword Slash" did not exceed the Life Source Realm.

However, the killing intent contained in this strike was too domineering and too invincible.

Qitianjun's swordsmanship was completely suppressed, leaving him feeling weak all over and powerless to resist.

Even the Yin-Yang Divine Sword in his hand seemed restless, as if it wanted to be summoned by Ye Chen.

puff!

Ye Chen's Emperor Sword slashed down, killing Qi Tianjun on the arena with a single strike.

Then, millions of flying swords that had submitted to the emperor's sword also slashed down with a hissing sound, cutting Qitianjun into mincemeat. The entire arena was also shattered and completely destroyed.

The arena prepared by the Yin Yang Divine Path Sect is extremely sturdy and can withstand powerful impacts.

But Ye Chen's "God-Slaying Emperor Sword Slash," using the Emperor Sword as a guide and summoning countless flying swords to assist in the kill, was simply unstoppable, killing gods and Buddhas alike. It was so powerful that after killing Qitianjun, even the entire arena was shattered.

Everyone in the audience was stunned by this astonishing scene.

Even Gu Jiuge and Feng Huangjun, who were engaged in a fierce battle on the side stage, were stunned and momentarily forgot about the fight.

Wow…

Ye Chen's battle ended, and the millions of flying swords he had just summoned rained down like a storm, creating a magnificent and spectacular scene.

The Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword also transformed into a stream of light and returned to Ye Chen's body.

The Yin-Yang Divine Sword whistled and flew back into the Yin God's hand.

Yin Shen was completely stunned. He temporarily handed over the Yin-Yang Divine Sword to Qi Tian Jun, hoping that Qi Tian Jun could defeat Ye Chen.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen's swordsmanship was so powerful that it directly suppressed Qitianjun.

The final victor was Ye Chen!

"Ho..."

Ye Chen was panting heavily, feeling extremely unwell himself. Although he had just killed Qitianjun with astonishing force, he had also suffered a great loss of energy and was now in a state of weakness.

There are still matches to come, and with him so exhausted, it will be very difficult for him to continue fighting.

However, Qitianjun, who wields the Yin-Yang Divine Sword, is far too terrifying. If Ye Chen doesn't fight desperately, he simply has no chance of winning.

Now that he has won, he has paid a huge price!
"Ye Chen, how are you?"

“Your breath is completely exhausted, which is terrible.”

"I'll help you!"

Within the Reincarnation Graveyard, Haotian Lanshen sensed the danger and felt Ye Chen's body was weak, so he prepared to release his spiritual energy to nourish Ye Chen.

"No, senior, you mustn't."

"If you release your spiritual energy, you will be exposed immediately."

Ye Chen stopped him.

If Haotian Lanshen makes any unusual moves, it will be exposed immediately.

The eyes of many powerful figures, including Yin Shen, Tianwen Ancestor, and Tingyou Ancestor, were all fixed on Ye Chen. If Haotian Lanshen was exposed and Ye Chen was found to have borrowed Haotian Lanshen's power, then he would be in violation of the rules.

The final has its own rules; you have to rely on your own strength!

If you use external forces and it's discovered, you'll immediately lose your eligibility to compete.

Of course, since the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect had used many underhanded tricks, Ye Chen was certainly not going to be polite and also planned to cheat.

However, now is not the time to cheat.

"Elder, did I win?"

Ye Chen hovered weakly in the air, looking at the referee elder not far away. Seeing that the elder had not yet announced the result, he asked.

The elder was completely stunned, and stammered, "Yes..."

Ye Chen nodded and flew back to the Nine Cang Academy's main camp, where he sat cross-legged to regulate his breathing and try to recover his energy.

He killed Qitianjun, won the fourth round of the competition, and successfully advanced to the top three.

However, being in the top three is not enough; Ye Chen must win the championship!
Now, he only has half an hour to rest.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the fourth round of the competition came to an end.

Liu Daojun, Qitianjun, and Fenghuangjun were all eliminated.

Ye Chen, Ji Siqing, and Gu Jiuge advanced to the fifth round, making them the top three.

The next stage of the competition will determine the champion!
"I never thought I'd make it into the top three."

Ji Siqing was a little surprised; she hadn't expected to make it into the top three. It was really luck.

But when she saw Ye Chen panting and looking pale, she had a bad feeling.

"Ye Chen, there are still matches to come, what are you going to do?"

Ji Siqing became worried. She had already used the power of the Path of Destiny during the preliminary rounds, and she could no longer use it.

Otherwise, the Great Calamity of Light will obliterate her!
She wanted to bless Ye Chen's fate, but she couldn't.

Moreover, the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect is watching closely. If Ye Chen uses outsiders for help, it will be considered a violation of the rules!
"I have half an hour left. I'll try my best to recover my strength!"

"That Gu Jiuge doesn't seem to be in very good condition either."

Ye Chen looked at Gu Jiuge, the once elegant young nobleman, who was now covered in wounds and had a pale face.

Clearly, although Gu Jiuge won the battle against Feng Huangjun, she also paid a heavy price.

This was naturally good news for Ye Chen.

He could not possibly recover to his peak condition in just half an hour, but Gu Jiuge also appeared to have suffered some damage.

Therefore, until the very last moment, no one knows who will win the championship.

Now that he has half an hour to rest, Ye Chen made the most of the time to recuperate.

"Emperor Ye."

At that moment, a fragrant breeze wafted over.

A woman with a graceful figure, holding a paper umbrella and wearing a veil, walked slowly into the main camp of the Nine Heavens Academy. She came to Ye Chen and said...
"Give me back my flying sword."

But then came the long night rain at the Tianjing Ancient Temple.

Ye Chen was adjusting his breathing when Chang Yeyu interrupted him. Annoyed, he asked, "What did you say?"

Ren Feifan and the Goddess of Beauty wanted to drive away Chang Yeyu, but along with Chang Yeyu came Jingliu Immortal Venerable!

With Immortal Venerable Jingliu in charge, it won't be easy for them to drive away Changyeyu.

Moreover, Chang Yeyu had given Ye Chen a win in the previous match, which could be considered a favor, so they couldn't very well send Chang Yeyu away.

Changye Yu said, "You just fought with Qitianjun and used the 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin' technique, which borrowed my flying sword. You have to return it to me."

Upon hearing Chang Yeyu's words, Ye Chen suddenly realized what was going on.

It turned out that when he shouted "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Source," even Chang Yeyu's flying sword was summoned.

"Uh……"

"Girl, go find it yourself."

Ye Chen pointed to the foot of Yangfeng Mountain. After the battle, the millions of flying swords he had borrowed all fell down the mountain.

There are now many martial artists searching for swords at the foot of the mountain, and the scene looks somewhat absurd.

With Chang Yeyu's cultivation level, she and her flying sword naturally have a blood connection. As long as she goes down the mountain to search for her sword, she will surely be able to find it.

Changyeyu shook his head and said:

"My flying sword has been tainted by your aura; it's become dirty. I don't want it anymore."

"I want you to give me a new one."

"My flying sword was forged from the seven-colored divine stone beneath the Primordial Seven-Colored Waterfall. Give me back an identical one."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was immediately at a loss for words and said, "How can I possibly return an identical sword to you in such a hurry?"

Changye Yu wasn't being unreasonable, and said:
"If you can't pay it back now, you can pay it back later."

“I have heard that there is an ancestor named Crimson Refining Monarch in the Nine Heavens Clan, whose weapon forging skills are extremely powerful. Your Nine Cang Academy must have inherited his weapon forging techniques.”

"I will give you the materials later, and you can forge a new sword for me. In addition, you will compensate me with 500,000 Dao Crystals."

"You fight with Qitianjun, fine, but how could you borrow my flying sword? This is outrageous!"

Knowing he was in the wrong, and not wanting to escalate the situation, Ye Chen said, "Alright, young lady, I'll reforge your sword after the Myriad Sects Conference."

Chang Yeyu hummed in agreement, and seeing Ye Chen's panting and pale face, she said:

"Emperor Ye, you seemed to have burned yourself out in the battle just now."

"I'm really afraid you'll die here, haha."

"Feel the earth beneath your feet, and it may bestow its blessings upon you."

After saying that, Chang Yeyu and Immortal Venerable Jingliu floated away.

Ye Chen was stunned, staring at the two women's backs. If you only looked at their backs, they seemed to be exactly the same, with the same graceful figures, and he couldn't tell them apart.

Shaking his head, Ye Chen composed himself, sensing that Chang Yeyu's last words seemed to have a deeper meaning.

"What is she doing? Is she giving me pointers?"

Will the earth bless me?

"Did she come before me not to force me to return my sword, but to give me pointers?"

Ye Chen's heart stirred, and he immediately sensed that Chang Yeyu had suddenly arrived. On the surface, she said she wanted him to repay the flying sword, but in reality, she might have a deeper meaning!
Blessings of the earth?
Ye Chen closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and felt the breath of the earth beneath his feet.

He first sensed a powerful and abundant energy, which belonged to the Yin-Yang Divine Path Sect's earth veins, but he could not access it.

But upon further reflection, Ye Chen glimpsed a trace of an ancient law.

That is an image belonging to the earth!
It is the Earth Ancestor!
Earth Ancestor among the Seventy-Two Pillar Gods!
Among the seventy-two pillar gods, the Earth Ancestor is the most unique.

Because he has no independent image; he is the earth itself.
