Chapter 900: 900
Letting out a breath, Ye Chen raised his head and looked at the sky . The thunder calamity had passed, and wind fire calamity was the next .
The great wind fire calamity was divided in external and internal layers . The outer layer was the body being ripped by gales and burnt by heavenly fire, while the internal layer was the heart demon . Facing these two layers together, martial artists with weak wills could never pass . Most people facing Life and Death calamity died from this calamity or the godly Yuan calamity . The deaths from thunder calamity were not much .
“I have to recover my Zhen Yuan first . ”
The one thing one didn’t have to worry about during Life and Death Calamity was recovering Zhen Yuan . The black hole in the three skies was basically a highly compressed energy vortex . As Ye Chen operated his heaven grade Green Lotus Sword Arts, boundless Yuan Qi energies funneled toward him . Roughly speaking, the concentration of this energy was at least a thousand times higher than the outside word .
“So thick!”
Ye Chen had never had the feeling of building his Zhen Yuan pool so quickly . The rich Yuan Qi energies didn’t need to be refined at all and could be directly converted into his Zhen Yuan . His almost depleted Zhen Yuan pool recovered by a tenth in a matter of a few breaths . Then, they soon got to twenty percent, thirty percent…seventy percent, and finally hundred percent .
Huff!
The moment Ye Chen had completely recovered his Zhen Yuan, a shining whirlwind suddenly descended from the black hole and swept past him .
Pa! Pa! Pa!
With that, numerous scars appeared on Ye Chen’s face, legs, and hands .
Hiss!
Ye Chen sucked in a cold breath . This whirlwind completely disregarded his Protective Zhen Yuan and directly scraped his body . The might of the storm was not much and could barely cut through his body’s defenses . However, this was not the crucial point . Ye Chen felt that the pain coming from the cuts was excessively high . They were clearly small cuts, but they made him feel an extreme pain . Caught off-guard by the disproportionate pain, he couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air .
He operated his Undying body and mended the wounds, but the pain remained .
“Will…Sure enough, it’s a test of will . ”
The thunder calamity tested battle strength, and the wind fire calamity tested will . It wouldn’t directly kill the martial artist, but inflict an unbearable pain on them . Moreover, this was merely the first wave . Who knew what it would test next? It should be known that it was not normal pain; it included numbness, spasms, chills, contortions, and so on .
If one couldn’t bear the external pain, once the internal calamity descended, one’s body would directly collapse . At that time, one’s body would directly disintegrate into a million pieces .
Since the Protective Zhen Yuan had no use, he retracted it . Although the external calamity wouldn’t kill him, he still needed to operate the Undying Body to heal his body . Hence, every bit of Zhen Yuan consumption could make a difference .
Zzz!
Once the storm passed, a berserk flame of heavenly fire descended, burning Ye Chen’s body . The might of heavenly fire was similarly not strong, but the pain inflicted was magnified by several folds . His body felt the numb and burning pain intermittently . Ye Chen’s entire being turned into a human torch, making him suffer various sorts of unbearable pains .
“Hehe, this is only the first wave . Once the second and second wave come, he’ll be completely out of it . ”
Gray Bird King thought that Ye Chen could easily pass wind fire calamity . However, after seeing his wretched appearance, his mood brightened . He would like to see what kinds of suffering were still left in the store for Ye Chen .
“After suffering all sorts of sufferings, he’ll be attacked by us . There is nothing better and straightforward than that . ” Ironarm King also smiled . “Second wave!”
Hu! Hu!
Next came a purple whirlwind, which gave a kind of moist feeling as if it were liquid . Even from so far away, they could feel their skin somewhat itchy .
“It’s Poison Wind!”
The Poison Wind was considered the most powerful wind fire calamity . One would be immediately poisoned after coming in contact with this poison . Although the poison would not infiltrate the body, it would cause one’s skin to rot, wither, and stink . Not to mention the person experiencing it, even the spectators felt their scalps go numb . Not anybody could evoke this calamity, and only once-in-a-thousand-year geniuses had this pleasure .
Ye Chen’s skin turned purple black at a visible rate . Then, it began to rot, emitting a purple, poisonous liquid from the rotting regions . It was an extremely disgusting scene . With his brows creased, Ye Chen sat cross-legged in the air with his palms firmly holding his knees .
“He is actually enduring!”
Ironhand King was in a bit of disbelief . He felt that the first wind calamity was quite ordinary, but once he was scraped by the wind, he felt a pain that stretched the limits of endurance . His forehead was raining sweat and he couldn’t help but scream a few times . In his view, as terrifying as the Poison Wind was considered, Ye Chen should have at least let out a few screams .
“Could this Poison Wind be not as frightening as claimed?” Ironarm King extended his hand and grabbed a few strands of the purple wind .
Ah!
A miserable shriek instantly came out of his mouth as his entire right arm directly rotted away . However, that was nothing compared to the pain coming from his arm, which sent him spasming . This pain was not something a person could endure . It should only exist in the purgatory of the legends .
“How powerful is this Poison Wind!”
Gray Bird King’s scalp went numb . How could he still have the courage to act like Ironarm King? Even the masked man gave up on the idea of testing the Purple Wind .
“Damn!”
Operating his Undying Body, he restored his right arm, but his face was completely pale and a hint of terror could be seen in the depths of his eyes . He looked at Ye Chen again, but with fear and apprehension this time . He couldn’t imagine how the latter was enduring such pain . After all, the latter’s whole body was suffering from the poison wind .
“Is this kid really a human?”
As he saw it, the pain Ye Chen felt must be beyond comprehension . Moreover, this pain could not be blocked off . He couldn’t distract himself from the pain in this trial . The test of heavens didn’t allow for such an easy route out .
Once the Poison Wind passed, a fire stream suddenly descended from the sky . It was highly concentrated, seeming more like lava .
“It’s the Sky Flame!”
Sky Flame was also the most powerful fire calamity .
The lava poured on Ye Chen’s body, directly burning his face and skin . But, the lava didn’t infiltrate his body, only rubbing against his inner muscles, as if slowly roasting his body . He could feel the pain of being burned alive as if an ordinary person were thrown into a pot of boiling oil .
Every muscle of his body swelled, and his four limbs incessantly spasmed .
He could feel his pounding heart . Ye Chen knew this was heavenly will’s blessing for him, protecting his heart and lungs from tearing themselves apart due to the pain . However, with so much pain, Ye Chen’s slowly lost consciousness and arrived in a hallucination .
It was a boundless valley . The spring was filled with bird cries and beautiful flowers, and it had a magical air to it . Giant dragons and phoenixes were flying in the skies, leaving behind dragon cries and sweet phoenix neighs . As soon as he heard them, Ye Chen completely forgot that he was amidst a trial and completely lost himself in the world .
“Your majesty, please come in!”
Outside of the valley, a squadron of expressionless, imposing divine generals was at guard . The leader of the guard pointed inside the valley, his voice respectful . Ye Chen didn’t say a word and calmly watched .
“Your majesty, young miss is waiting inside . Don’t make her wait for too long . ” The divine general continued .
Seeing that Ye Chen was not moving for a long time and seemed to have no intentions of doing so, the divine general no longer spoke and just stood respectfully by the side, A few moments later, a melodious, sweet sound came from inside .
“Young master Ye, why are you not coming in? The young miss has been awaiting you for a while . ” Seven beautiful women in silk skirts walked out of the valley . Each of them carried a graceful bearing like that of fairies . Their moving expressions could make anybody think twice before rejecting them .
“Come, young master Ye!” Two women skipped over and held Ye Chen’s arms, trying to pull him inside .
“Get lost!” Ye Chen released his aura for a moment, shaking the two women off .
“You…!” Tears flowed down the faces of the two women, their expressions wronged .
“Brother Ye!” Right at this moment, another person walked out of the valley . It was a tall woman with beautiful features, looking at Ye Chen with eyes full of love . It was none other than Xu Jing .
“Young miss, he doesn’t want to come in . You don’t need to care about him . ” The seven women swarmed around Xu Jing .
“You really don’t want to enter?” Xu Jing asked .
A complicated look flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes before he closed them to regain his composure .
“Let it be . You can go find her!” Xu Jing let out a long sigh as she turned around and walked back inside the valley, leaving behind a teardrop .
“Ye Chen, let’s leave . ” Not far away, Murong Qingcheng slowly walked over; her face had a compassionate look on her face .
“What is true, what is false?”
“It’s always hard to distinguish!”
“This is precisely the heart demon!”
Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes, which were again clear . He didn’t glance at Murong Qingcheng, and his aura incessantly climbed . The sharp sword aura caused the whole world to disintegrate like a shattering mirror .
“Break! Break! Break!”
With three roars, the valley, the divine generals, the giant dragons and phoenixes, as well as Xu Jing and Murong Qingcheng all disappeared, as if they never existed . The fire stream was still burning his body . The moment his hallucination disappeared, Ye Chen again felt the scorching pain . Moreover, because he’d just emerged from a hallucination, the pain seemed to have increased several times, making him feel like dying .
Fortunately, the time of fire calamity was limited and it soon ended . Perhaps the wind fire calamity was quite difficult for other people, but with Ye Chen’s powerful will, the so-called external calamity was useless . This was because the source of his battle strength had always been his will and soul .
After the wind fire calamity, the godly Yuan calamity finally arrived . However, to the masked man and the other three’s surprise, even though Ye Chen’s soul was so strong that it was unheard of, he actually passed it with the greatest ease .
Only Ye Chen himself knew that his soul was five times more powerful than that of an ordinary person . The essence of his soul was already comparable to that of Life and Death Kings . Thus, passing the godly Yuan calamity was much easier than passing the thunder calamity for him .
Bang!
From the black hole, a seemingly semi-liquid-semi-solid crystalline river poured down and entered Ye Chen’s body . This was the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth compressed to the limits . After entering his body, it instantly converted into king grade Zhen Yuan . With the king grade Zhen Yuan, even if Ye Chen didn’t make any progress in his profound, his battle strength would increase by multiple folds .
“Not good, his soul didn’t weaken at all! Leave!”
The masked man decided at once and entered the void . Ye Chen possessed a mid two star battle strength even before the breakthrough . And now that he had broken through, it would be a disaster for them . Previously, he was pinning his hopes on Ye Chen’s weakened soul after surviving the calamity . However, that was no longer the case, and it seemed to only be their wishful thinking .
