Just as she was lost in thought.

Yao Guangjing suddenly stepped forward. This hunched old woman had an appearance somewhat reminiscent of Zhang Ren, who cultivated the Celestial Corpse Skill, with skin like orange peel and withered hands, yet unexpectedly, she was a Body Cultivator!

In almost an instant, she appeared before Ye Qingchen, and at the same time, her withered hand came crashing down from above.

Crackling sounds!

The surrounding void shattered, and before her hand even touched the ground, it had already collapsed, hinting at the shape of a massive palm print. This palm imprint was as large as a hundred feet in diameter—an unbelievable sight considering her fragile frame harbored such terrifying power!

"Get out of the way!"

As Yao Guangjing’s hand came down from the heavens, Ye Qingchen suddenly stepped forward, True Qi surging turbulently, his long hair dancing without wind. With a fierce upward palm strike, he met the descending hand from above.

This was the very palm that previously destroyed the Spirit King!

"Boom!"

Their palms collided.

The ground beneath Ye Qingchen’s feet suddenly sank, and he left two deep footprints. The violent power then cascaded down through Ye Qingchen’s legs, continuously spreading outwards!

Around him, the ground shattered inch by inch, debris flying as a fierce wind swept up the dust!

"Let this old man test this prodigy of Taotian Palace too!"

Seeing Yao Guangjing and Wang Qinhu take action one after another, Zhu Tianzheng laughed heartily and suddenly raised a pointing finger!

Crack!

This terrifying Sword Pointing tore the ground apart upon release. The vast Sword Qi extended a hundred feet in an instant, like a dragon dancing wildly, lightning howling, exposing the rocks beneath the earth, and tearing apart the sky filled with Yin Evil Qi!

Like a rainbow piercing through the sun, it quickly charged towards Ye Qingchen.

"Slash!"

Ye Qingchen gritted his teeth, raising his hand fiercely to grab.

A whirlwind roared around, forming a Heaven-shocking sword light that cleaved down in an instant, slashing heavily upon the vast Sword Pointing. The terrifying Sword Pointing held for a moment before being cut off by Ye Qingchen!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Qingchen had already fought against the three from the Blood Kill Hall, causing the entire Broken Secret Realm to surge with Powerful Qi, shaking the space wildly.

Yet.

Even though Ye Qingchen fended off the three attackers, the disciples of Daluo Sect felt as if their hearts had fallen into an abyss. Both Daluo Sect disciples and the evil cultivators could see:

The members of Ten Thousand Gods Sect had victory within their grasp!

In the eyes of Ten Thousand Gods Sect, Ye Qingchen was like a turtle in a jar, easy to capture. Their hesitance to deliver the killing blow was akin to a cat toying with a mouse. Xiao Qi’an remained silent, evidently in tacit agreement with these higher-ups!

"Boom!"

Swords clashed, Sword Pointing exploded, Sword Qi danced wildly, stirring Ye Qingchen’s long hair like a storm. Yet he showed no fear, his eyes filled with a rising fighting spirit.

He glanced at the remaining four Supreme Elders of Ten Thousand Gods Sect, his voice thundering:

"Who’s next?"

"Me!"

Finally.

The four Supreme Elders of Ten Thousand Gods Sect were ready to act.

As soon as the words left their lips.

Meng Fanggang stepped forward, his hands flipping as Circulation of Yin Evil Qi surged, transforming into a massive black dragon. Though this black dragon was only ten feet in size, it was several times stronger than the previous Evil Ghost Black Dragon conjured by the Spirit King!

The black dragon danced and soared, seemingly tearing apart the entire Broken Secret Realm. Within the black mist of Yin Evil, the dragon roared like a surging sea, crashing through mighty waves. With overwhelming Qi Force, it charged fiercely.

"Boom!"

Ye Qingchen clenched his fist, his spine undulating like a great dragon, and with an explosive burst of Qi Force, he finally punched the black dragon into oblivion!

However.

While Meng Fanggang remained motionless, Ye Qingchen was blasted back dozens of steps by the power.

Witnessing this scene.

Kong Jing and the others felt their hearts sinking once more.

Against a Human Immortal Second Layer, Ye Qingchen could hold his own. But when faced with a Human Immortal Third Layer, he immediately fell into a disadvantage!

"I’ll join too!"

With barely a pause, Xiang Jiuyang laughed heartily, spreading his arms. Two black blades, each spanning over ten feet, crossed his chest. Where the black blades passed, even the entire sky was sliced apart, creating a scene of fluttering willow fluff!

It was a spectacle of air being sliced!

"Boom!"

With a thundering noise.

Ye Qingchen was pushed back again.

"Let’s see how long you can hold on!"

Yue Shiming’s gaze turned cold as he suddenly raised his large hand. The black blade exploded, and the resulting Yin Evil Qi surged together, transforming into streams of black swords!

Each of these black swords was three feet six inches long, covered in cloud patterns and exuding a chilling light. In an instant, the area surrounding Ye Qingchen turned into a Juedi slaughter ground!

It followed as he grasped with a curve of his hand!

"Swoosh!"

An endless array of steel needles gathered like a whirlwind, akin to a rain of arrows, blotting out the sky as they rushed forward.

Ye Qingchen’s eyes narrowed. With a flip of both hands, he clapped continuously. Although he shattered the black swords coming at him, he was still pushed back repeatedly by the immense power of the swords.

"Haha, that’s all you’ve got!"

Bang!

Ye Qingchen raised his hand to shatter the last black sword and retreated one more step.

But instead of any fear, he burst into hearty laughter.

"Is that so?"

As soon as Ye Qingchen finished speaking.

Suddenly, a chilling voice echoed. It was Gong Shikun, who had remained silent among the four elders. He smiled sinisterly at Ye Qingchen and said:

"Look up above you."

What?

Ye Qingchen was taken aback, lifting his gaze, his pupils contracting instantly.

At that moment, everyone snapped back to reality, looking up in unison, only to gasp in shock. Unbeknownst to them, a vast, thick layer of black clouds had gathered above Ye Qingchen’s head.

Within the clouds, countless black dragon-snake-like lightning bolts raged and weaved freely. The turbulent storms did not drive away the darkness; instead, they made this Broken Secret Realm even more daunting and oppressive!

Even from a distance, everyone could feel the terrifying power contained within the lightning!

"Die!"

Gong Shikun grinned menacingly.

Both hands waved sharply.

"Boom!"

In an instant.

An endless torrent of thunder roared, like a wild dragon crashing down with no interval, cutting through the sky for hundreds of yards, crashing down with a bang, covering an area with Ye Qingchen at its center for hundreds of yards!

Boom!

The violent thunderstorm immediately whipped up an infinite wave of air, sweeping across the entire land like a hurricane. Even the secret realm could not withstand such terrifying power, splitting into countless cracks. Behind the cracks lay the pitch-dark void!

The disciples of the Daluo Sect and the evil cultivators were swept away by the gale on the spot. Only the members of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect stood at the forefront, unmoved, watching the scene unfold!

"It’s over!"

Gong Shikun sneered coldly.

In his view, his strike with black thunder possessed extreme power. Even a Human Immortal would be reduced to ashes. No matter how powerful Ye Qingchen was, he was only at the Celestial Venerable Ninth Layer; how could he escape death?

The other members of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect on site thought the same.

"It’s over!"

Qiuyuan’s face turned pale, heart sinking into an abyss. Yuan Chong felt like his bones were being extracted, considering the Ten Thousand Gods Sect’s ruthless methods, with Ye Qingchen’s death, they’d be next.

"Impossible..."

Kong Jing muttered to herself, seemingly unwilling to believe, as tears trickled down continuously.

Gong Shikun’s strike was far too powerful; even if they all joined forces, they couldn’t hope to block that storm of thunder. How could Ye Qingchen alone withstand it?

Only Xiao Qi’an furrowed his brow slightly, discontentedly saying:

"Gong Shikun, you were too ruthless! This kid slaughtered our sect disciples, nearly destroyed Earth Kill and Celestial Kill Halls. Allowing him to be obliterated like this is far too lenient!"

However.

Before he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly interjected:

"Is that so?"

"What?"

Xiao Qi’an’s face changed dramatically, suddenly looking forward.

Immediately following, Gong Shikun, Zhu Tianzheng, Yao Guangjing, and others were also shocked, quickly looking ahead. The Daluo Sect disciples and the evil cultivators present also looked over.

Amidst the dust settling, an unbelievable scene slowly unfolded!
