372: Great Battle Pool Migration

Wu Clan, Council Hall.

Li Xinyi sat gracefully in the main seat, an innate aura of superiority radiating from her.

"Are you saying that Yang Lingchen already possesses the Combat Power of the first layer of the Cosmic God Realm?" A flash of surprise crossed Li Xinyi's beautiful eyes.

"Yes, Old Ancestor. I witnessed it with my own eyes when he defeated Qin Zihao, and he also controlled four Cultivators at the ninth layer of the Ancestral God Realm."

Wu Ming then proceeded to recount everything he knew.

"This bastard really has some tricks up his sleeve!" Li Xinyi thought to herself.

"What is the current reaction of the other forces?" Li Xinyi asked.

"I am not sure about the Qin Family, but Chi Zhongqian and Zhao Wuhen are already mobilizing their men. If nothing goes wrong, they should reach the Heavenly God Palace very soon," Wu Ming replied.

"Understood, you may leave," Li Xinyi said.

"Yes, Old Ancestor," Wu Ming bowed and retreated.

"Old Ancestor, should we send people to support Yang Lingchen?" the old woman asked.

"Do not worry about him," Li Xinyi said.

...

Heavenly God Palace.

"Master, this Subordinate has received news that the Chi Family and Wuya Palace are mobilizing troops, and the target is likely you, Master," Xiao Wanshan said respectfully.

"Chi Zhongqian, Zhao Wuhen, and Qin Hongjie—what are their cultivation levels?" Yang Lingchen asked.

"Master, Chi Zhongqian and Zhao Wuhen are at the second layer of the Cosmic God Realm. Qin Hongjie's cultivation level is one minor Realm higher than theirs, and he is also the most scheming of the three," Xiao Wanshan replied.

"It matters not. As long as they dare to come, I will ensure they never return," cold killing intent surged in Yang Lingchen's eyes.

"Master, these Three Great Powers all have Old Ancestors at the Cosmic God Realm Fifth Layer behind them. If you kill these three, it may cause huge trouble," Qin Zihao said.

"So what if they are at the Cosmic God Realm Fifth Layer? Anyone who provokes me must pay a price in blood," Yang Lingchen said coldly.

Afterward, he also summoned his Clone over, as this time the opponents were no ordinary people.

However, Yang Lingchen still had his Clone change its appearance; he did not want others to know about his Clone.

Although the Shapeshifting Technique was no longer very effective against those in the Ancestral God Realm, it was still quite simple to hide his true face.

With his Clone holding the line and the Suppression Grand Array, Yang Lingchen was not afraid even if Qin Hongjie, Chi Zhongqian, and Zhao Wuhen joined forces.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Chi Zhongqian, leading four Elder retainers at the first layer of the Cosmic God Realm, arrived first at the Heavenly God Mountain Range.

Facing the aggressive Chi Zhongqian, Yang Lingchen led the Servant Group and blocked them directly at the Heavenly God Mountain Range.

"Yang Lingchen, you have some nerve, daring to use evil arts to control my son! Today, I will let you know the consequences of offending my Chi Family."

Cold, sinister killing intent shone in Chi Zhongqian's eyes.

"Chi Zhongqian, surrender immediately, and the Master might still spare your life," Chi Tiannan said coldly.

"You bastard."

Chi Zhongqian shouted sharply, then said coldly, "Yang Lingchen, what exactly did you do to Tiannan?"

"What else could I do? It is nothing more than your son admiring my charisma, so he chose to abandon darkness for light and follow me."

Yang Lingchen sneered, then continued, "Now, I will give you a chance too. As long as you, like your son, abandon darkness for light and follow me, I can give you the position of Servant Group Captain."

"Little Bastard, you are courting death!" Chi Zhongqian shouted, "Kill!"

Having said that, he brandished his battle halberd and charged toward Yang Lingchen.

"Kill."

Yang Lingchen shouted coldly and swung the immortal demon sword, meeting Chi Zhongqian head-on.

His Clone led the Servant Group and pounced on the four Elder retainers of the Chi Family who were at the first layer of the Cosmic God Realm.

The battle began. Within the Heavenly God Mountain Range, Sword Qi soared into the sky, the flames of war flew, and earth-shattering roars echoed in all directions.

Yang Lingchen did not use the Suppression Grand Array; after all, the opponent's strength was not enough to force him to use it.

The moment they clashed, a look of shock appeared in Chi Zhongqian's eyes. He had originally thought he could easily take down Yang Lingchen.

But after truly engaging, he realized how ridiculously wrong he was, because Yang Lingchen's Combat Power completely exceeded his imagination.

Chi Zhongqian simply could not understand how someone at the third layer of the Ancestral God Realm could display the strength of the second layer of the Cosmic God Realm.

At this moment, he completely abandoned the idea of capturing Yang Lingchen alive, because he knew it was impossible to do so.

"Little Bastard, go to hell!"

Fierce light erupted in Chi Zhongqian's eyes, and his battle halberd thrust out repeatedly, invisible halberd rays shooting toward Yang Lingchen.

Seeing this, Yang Lingchen leaped sideways, sweeping the immortal demon sword through the air. With a sound like a sonic boom, the Sword Qi slashed horizontally toward Chi Zhongqian.

The fierce sword momentum made Chi Zhongqian frown, but he was, after all, a top expert who guarded a region. At the critical moment, he decisively unleashed all his power and swung his battle halberd to meet it.

"Boom... boom... boom... boom..."

The two terrifying forces collided heavily, creating an earth-shattering roar.

At that moment, Yang Lingchen and Chi Zhongqian were both sent flying backward.

However, in this collision, Yang Lingchen clearly gained the upper hand, because although he was sent flying, he did not suffer any injuries.

Conversely, Chi Zhongqian's state was significantly worse, as a long gash had been cut into his chest by Yang Lingchen, and blood had already dyed his entire chest red.

"Kill!"

Having succeeded in one strike, Yang Lingchen shot out again. He brought his battle sword down through the air, the Sword Qi cutting through the Void Realm with a brilliant light as it slashed down toward Chi Zhongqian.

Just then, a terrifying figure flashed over and appeared instantly in front of Chi Zhongqian. At the same time, a sharp blade aura met Yang Lingchen's Sword Qi.

"Boom... boom... boom... boom..."

With a loud boom, the two powerful forces collided. Yang Lingchen's figure was instantly sent flying, while the terrifying figure stood motionless.

The person who arrived was none other than Qin Family Head, Qin Hongjie.

"Many thanks to Brother Qin for saving my life," Chi Zhongqian cupped his hands in gratitude, still shaken by the event.

"Brother Chi, you are too kind. This child has entered the Demonic Path; we should naturally join forces to slay him," Qin Hongjie said.

"Brother Qin is right," Chi Zhongqian said.

"Oh! So Brother Qin is here too!"

Just then, several powerful figures appeared at the battle scene; the leader was none other than Zhao Wuhen of Wuya Palace.

"Eh! Brother Chi, what is going on? Why do you look so disheveled?" Zhao Wuhen said with a mocking smile.

"Hmph!"

Chi Zhongqian snorted coldly and said, "Zhao Wuhen, no one will think you are a mute if you do not speak."

"Brother Chi, do not be angry. I was just curious and asking casually," Zhao Wuhen said coldly.

"Retreat."

Yang Lingchen shouted coldly, then immediately led the Servant Group and retreated instantly into the Suppression Grand Array behind him.

Just a moment ago, Yang Lingchen's Clone, leading the Servant Group, had not gained much advantage in the battle against the four Elder retainers of the Chi Family.

If Qin Hongjie had not appeared, Yang Lingchen's main body would have already taken care of Chi Zhongqian.

By then, he could have helped his Clone and also taken care of the Chi Family retainers. It was just a pity that such a good opportunity had been ruined by Qin Hongjie.
