The Cultivation Method Ye Chen Newly Obtained

“Brother Mu, they’re going to beat me to death!”

Chen Xuan’s voice reached Xu Mu’s ears.

Upon hearing this, Xu Mu immediately released qi into the sky. “Old Chen, I’m releasing this qi! Come over here quickly!”

“Xu Mu, what are you doing?”

Zilan Yin asked curiously after noticing Xu Mu release qi for no apparent reason.

“My friend is over there. I’m signaling him to come over.”

After saying this, Xu Mu stopped paying attention to Zilan Yin and sent another telepathic message to Chen Xuan.

“Old Chen, who’s attacking you?”

“It’s that Ye Chen and several members of the Light Clan.”

Chen Xuan’s telepathic voice came through again.

“Are you communicating with Chen Xuan?” Li Hongdou walked over and asked.

“That’s right. Old Chen is in danger. The ones attacking him are members of the Light Clan.”

Xu Mu had already sensed the qi over there, so he hurried toward Chen Xuan’s location.

“See? I knew it! The Light Clan are all a bunch of hypocrites!”

Zilan Yin followed beside Xu Mu and continued, “Let’s hope our Black Moon Clan’s eighth-level expert is still alive. If he is, we may still have a chance of winning.”

As they hurried along, Xu Mu could already see Chen Xuan in the distance.

His clothes were tattered and torn. Through the hole in the front of his shirt, one could see the woven urea sack underneath.

Right behind him was Ye Chen.

Ye Chen’s body was already covered in golden dragon scales, and both his hands had transformed into dragon claws.

A golden tail as thick as a man’s thigh extended from his back, while behind him floated the enormous phantom of a dragon’s head.

Whoosh!

Ye Chen continued charging toward Chen Xuan.

He swung his arm forcefully, and the giant dragon phantom behind him suddenly swept its foreclaw forward.

Boom!

The massive phantom claw transformed into several golden blades of wind that swept toward Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan ran while watching the golden blades of wind.

Just as the blades were about to touch him, his body suddenly transformed into golden electrical currents, allowing him to evade the attack.

“What about this, then?”

Ye Chen’s figure instantly closed the distance, and he struck at Chen Xuan with one claw.

He had noticed something unusual earlier. Chen Xuan’s technique was indeed formidable, allowing him to transform into electrical currents in an instant and evade many attacks.

However, after repeated testing, Ye Chen had discovered that his opponent could remain immune to attacks for only an instant. Using the technique required extremely precise timing.

Once that brief period of invulnerability ended, Chen Xuan’s body had to return to normal before he could use the technique again.

Ye Chen had seized that opening. His previous attack had merely been a feint; his true strike had been waiting for the precise moment Chen Xuan’s invulnerability ended.

Seeing the attack coming, Chen Xuan quickly turned around.

Bang!

Ye Chen’s claw slammed into Chen Xuan’s body, and the dragon-head phantom behind him struck with a claw of its own.

Boom!

The two attacks hit Chen Xuan almost simultaneously.

Chen Xuan flew backward like a kite with its string cut.

“Old Chen!”

Xu Mu, watching from a distance, immediately raised his hand and slightly compressed the vast stretch of air behind Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan, still flying backward, felt as though he had entered water. His speed gradually slowed until he landed safely on the ground.

“Are you all right?” Xu Mu immediately asked.

“I’m fine. I deliberately let him hit the woven sack.”

Chen Xuan grinned and patted the exposed urea sack on his chest before continuing, “Brother Mu, you finally made it. This Ye Chen really is terrifying. He’s only two levels above me, but I can’t do a thing against him.”

Xu Mu smiled helplessly. After all, they were both protagonists, and both could fight opponents above their level with ease.

When two protagonists fought each other, the one with the higher cultivation level would naturally be stronger.

In the distance, Ye Chen slowly landed on the ground as well.

He glared darkly at Xu Mu. “I knew you’d be here too!”

“Ye Chen, this is a grudge between the two of us. Why drag uninvolved people into it?”

Xu Mu took several steps forward and asked coldly.

Ye Chen let out a cold laugh. “The grudge between us has long since become irreconcilable! Even killing you wouldn’t be enough to extinguish the hatred in my heart. I’ll exterminate everyone around you and leave no survivors.”

“Quite the tyrant, aren’t you? I wonder who it was that ran away like a dog earlier.”

Xu Mu shrugged and mocked him.

“Xu Mu! You have no right to criticize me. Back then, you were stronger than me only because you had a powerful master who passed so many powerful techniques on to you. I merely happened to find a few techniques in a ruin.”

At this point, Ye Chen’s eyes gradually filled with confidence. “But now, I’m no longer the same person! Don’t think you’re the only one with backing. I have someone supporting me too!”

As soon as he finished speaking, three members of the Light Clan appeared in the sky behind him.

They were Freya, Dorothea, and another middle-aged member of the Light Clan.

Xu Mu briefly inspected the man with the Divine Eye and discovered that his name was Paul. He was none other than the Fifth Elder of the cabinet.

The three of them slowly descended behind Ye Chen.

Ye Chen raised the dragon claw he had yet to retract and clenched it tightly. He looked arrogantly at Xu Mu. “What do you think now? Do you really think those few ants beside you can stand against us?”

“Freya!”

Zilan Yin pointed at the woman in the distance. “Xu Mu just saved your life, and you’re already going to attack us?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen couldn’t help turning to look at Freya.

She was the strongest among them. According to the rumors, she could even fight a ninth-level expert.

If this woman switched sides and joined Xu Mu, the balance of power between the two sides would be completely reversed.

Freya spread her hands and took several steps back. “I already told them earlier that I won’t take part in a battle against Xu Mu. After all, he saved my life.”

“Freya, you clearly said earlier that you would help Xu Mu!”

Zilan Yin said coldly. “It’s only been a few minutes, and you’re already going back on your word.”

“I will certainly help Xu Mu if outsiders threaten him. But this time, it’s the Light Clan involved. The circumstances are different, so I will naturally remain an observer.”

Freya spoke calmly and stopped involving herself in the matter.

To her, the grudge between Ye Chen and Xu Mu was nothing more than a spectacle.

But Zilan Yin had to die.

The reason the Light Clan had come this time was to prevent the matter from escalating. If they entered the Black Moon Clan’s Divine Battlefield and the Black Moon Clan found out, they would certainly refuse to let the matter go.

Seeing this, Ye Chen said calmly, “That’s enough! We don’t need all of them to deal with you. You two should have no problem, right?”

Dorothea narrowed her eyes. She didn’t dare attack Xu Mu on her own, since the video of Zidian was still in the hands of Xu Mu’s friend.

“I’m out. I’ve already experienced Xu Mu’s strength firsthand. I wouldn’t dare fight him. You and Elder Paul are enough.”

Dorothea also retreated to Freya’s side.

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Paul. “Fifth Elder, you shouldn’t have any problem, right?”

“They’re nothing but ants.”

Paul’s tone was indifferent.

Before they arrived, Freya had already instructed him that their priority was to kill Zilan Yin.

As for Xu Mu and the others around him, they should kill them if possible.

After all, Xu Mu was currently worth an entire Heaven-grade technique.

“Good! Then let’s fight! Xu Mu, you’re going to die today!”

Ye Chen unleashed his power. “I’ll show you the technique I just obtained!”
