Chapter 920



920 The trial of death

~~

Sensing ye Chen’s tyrannical power pressing down on him, Shi Jue did not want to end up as miserable as Xuan Ye. He turned into a bloody light and ran hundreds of kilometers away in an instant.

“You want to leave? Come back here!” Ye Chen’s spirit God reached out to grab Shi Jue.

Shi Jue felt as if he was being sucked in by something as he continuously retreated and crashed into the spiritual God’s palm.

“BOOM!” A loud sound was heard.

Shi Jue was picked up by the spirit God and smashed onto the ground. Just like Xuan Ye, he turned into a wisp of soul and was about to disappear from the spirit world.

“You’re ye chen, right? I’ll remember you! Don’t think that with your cultivation, you can be a King. Even if you enter nether city, I can play you to death!” Xuan Ye howled in a shrill voice. There was a deep sense of unwillingness in his voice.

Xuan Ye had joined nether city this time because of someone’s recommendation. He had an older brother, mu ye, whose talent and cultivation base were above his own. He was already a peak star Lord expert and was about to enter the realm beyond Star Lord. In nether city, he was someone that nether would focus on nurturing.

Seeing that Xuan Ye still dared to be so arrogant after being beaten up like this, ye chen snorted coldly. “No matter who it is, I’ll play with them!”

With that, ye chen raised his giant palm. bang, bang, bang! Xuan Ye was continuously smacked deep into the ground.

Xuan Ye was only left with a wisp of his soul. After being ravaged, his soul dissipated and he left the spiritual world.

Ye Chen’s spiritual God surveyed the surroundings, his gaze sweeping over everyone.

The surrounding experts from various races were all deeply shocked. Even Maya and the other experts did not dare to move. The Phoenix extinction had run hundreds of kilometers away and was still caught. Where could they hide in this spiritual world?

Ye Chen’s spirit God’s gaze fell on Shi Jue.

Shi Jue smiled bitterly. He did not want to end up like Xuan Ye and be struck by ye Chen’s giant palm again.

“I admit defeat. I’ll leave on my own!” Shi Jue said quickly. With a “bang,” his soul dissipated. Although he had committed suicide, his points still belonged to ye chen.

After defeating two of them, ye Chen’s score soared to first place. Maya was in second place.

Xuan Ye and Shi Jue were ranked first and third respectively, but they were both killed so easily. What else could the rest of them do?

In the void far away from the land of the spirit God.

The general of the black demon clan was still sitting cross-legged quietly. At this moment, there was another person beside him. This person’s features were similar to Xuan Ye’s.

It was the Shen Jin star soul, mu ye!

Nether city’s strength was unfathomable. The outside world knew that nether city had ten great battle generals and six peerless geniuses. Each and every one of them was an existence at the peak of the star Lord level. They would soon break through to the star Lord level and reach another realm. As for mu ye, he was the one with the highest talent.

The general of the black demon clan smiled as he looked at mu ye, this year’s newcomers are quite talented. I didn’t expect one of them to be stronger than your brother!

Mu ye’s expression was gloomy. Xuan Ye’s talent was not bad. Among the lower-level Star Lords, he could be considered as one of the top. He had originally wanted Xuan Ye to pass the three tests and rank first. This way, he would be able to recommend Xuan Ye to become the subordinate of a battle general.

This way, Xuan Ye would be able to be nurtured, and his position in nether city would also be consolidated. However, he did not expect a random human to appear out of nowhere and ruin his plans.

Mu ye smiled indifferently. every year, many geniuses join nether city. Many of them were amazing talents at that time, but only a few of them were able to advance all the way. Entering nether city is only their first step. It’s not certain who is more valuable to train in the future!

The black demon clan’s general looked at mu ye and only smiled. He didn’t make any comment. What mu ye said did make some sense. However, although many geniuses fell every year, there were also many geniuses who rose. These geniuses were the pillars of nether city.

Wasn’t mu ye one of them?

As a God advancement Astral Soul, mu ye’s talent was indeed extraordinary. At such a young age, he had already reached such a high realm. His future was limitless and he might even become a powerful figure in nether city. Even he had to be polite to mu ye.

Mu ye’s profound gaze looked at the huge spiritual God standing in the spiritual world. This human who came out of nowhere actually made him feel a trace of threat.

He couldn’t help but think of that mysterious human expert of the ten great generals. Even now, mu ye was not sure of that person’s true identity. He had only met him once, but the other party’s powerful strength had left an indelible impression on him. It turned out that a human of the third race could also cultivate to such a realm. This was something unimaginable.

Although he had written off all his grudges in nether city and the city did not allow any internal strife, mu ye still maintained a certain level of vigilance towards the human race. Only he, a divine advancement star soul, truly understood the relationship between the star Soul Race and the human race.

Seeing ye Chen’s spirit God sweep away the powerhouses of the various clans, mu ye’s expression was gloomy. It seemed that with ye Chen’s ability, joining nether city was already an unstoppable thing! Even he was unable to influence the results of the selection.

In nether city, everything had to be done according to the rules.

As for Xuan Ye, he had no problem entering nether city, but he wouldn’t be as dazzling. It was basically impossible for him to become a disciple of a battle general. The ten battle generals were all extraordinary existences. If they wanted to take in disciples, they would only take in peerless geniuses. They did not need ordinary people. Even if it was only slightly inferior, they would not be interested.

This made mu ye secretly angry, because this was related to his position in nether city!

Outside the spiritual world, the experts of various races came out of crystal coffins with dejected expressions. They sat cross-legged in the hall to recover their damaged souls.

Hundreds of thousands of people were sitting cross-legged in a well-arranged manner.

Xuan Ye, Shi Jue, and the others each occupied a corner of the hall.

After about half an hour, ye chen, Master Lion, little tanuki, and MoU ping jumped out of the ice coffin and walked to the hall at the back.

In an instant, the gazes and thoughts of hundreds of thousands of people fell on ye chen and the others.

Their gazes were extremely complicated, with all kinds of emotions.

There was envy, jealousy, and respect.

Before this, outside the spirit God land, no one had taken ye chen and the others seriously. Who would care about a few third-type races? However, ye chen had suddenly appeared and swept everyone away with a domineering attitude. They could not help but be convinced.

At this point, they no longer dared to underestimate ye Chen’s group.

Xuan Ye’s eyes were filled with hatred as he looked at ye chen. Ye chen had defeated him and caused him to disappoint his big brother, affecting his big brother’s plan. All of this was because of ye chen!

However, his strength seemed to be slightly inferior to ye Chen’s, so he still kept a respectful distance from ye chen. If he wanted to settle the score, he would have to get his big brother’s permission first! His current mission was not to seek revenge, but to enter nether city first!

As for shijue and the others, they were completely convinced. How would they dare to provoke ye chen and the others? When he saw ye Chen’s gaze sweeping over in his direction, he quickly looked away.

Maya and the others were the same.

The way of survival in the universe was to respect the strong. If one were to fight to the death with an expert, the result would definitely be very tragic.

Ye chen understood that he had swept through the astral world and intimidated everyone. They did not understand his true strength and would not dare to provoke him under normal circumstances. If they knew that his true strength was actually similar to theirs, what would they think?

The people sent by the Scarlet Flame Star Palace to kill ye chen looked in ye Chen’s direction, extremely depressed. It was only after they entered the soul world that they realized how powerful these experts from various races were. They had been inside for less than fifteen minutes before they were all killed.

These powerhouses from various races were ridiculously strong but they had heard that ye chen had defeated everyone in the astral world. This shocked them and made them feel incredulous.

It seemed that with their strength, they were not even a dish in front of ye chen!

They all had the thought of retreating. It seemed that if they wanted to kill ye chen, they would have to ask the Scarlet Flame Star Palace to send a stronger master, or wait until ye chen left nether city before making a move.

In the void, the ancestral fiend looked down on everyone.

“The first round tested the strength of everyone’s souls. The Lords of Nether city have recorded your performance. “Next up will be the trial of death. More than half of you will die, leaving only one or two hundred people behind. If you apply to withdraw now, there’s still time!” The ancestral fiend in the sky looked at everyone with interest. His gaze swept across the experts of the various races.

The people of the Scarlet Flame Star Palace looked at each other and turned pale. They were afraid, so they all applied to leave and left the hall.

Hundreds of thousands of people, but only one or two hundred people would be left?

This was too ruthless!

The elimination rate was too high. As expected of nether city, it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to enter! Countless people came to nether city every year, but only a few could enter.

After a while, people started to stand up and leave the hall.

One after another, they were all geniuses from their respective races. They were very confident in their own strength, but after coming here, they understood that there would always be someone stronger among the strong. The battle in the soul world made many of them understand this reality. They heard that only one or two hundred people could remain in the next round, so they no longer had any confidence in themselves.

If they stayed, they would most likely die in the next round!

Batch after batch of people stood up and left. The hall that was originally packed with people gradually became emptier.

Hundreds of thousands of people became tens of thousands, and finally thousands.

The remaining people were unwilling to leave.

They all wanted to join nether city. Even if they had to die, they would not hesitate!

MoU ping looked at ye chen, little tanuki, and Master Lion and said, if it really comes down to life and death, you don’t have to worry about me. I know that with my strength, I might not be able to enter nether city. If I die, it’s a worthy death.

“Why don’t you choose to quit?” Ye chen asked MoU ping.

“Since I’m here, there’s no reason to leave.” MoU Ping’s will was firm. if I were to turn back because I’m afraid, I would have died countless times! Even if I die, I want to die on the road of the nether city’s trial!”

As a Wanderer in the starry sky, MoU ping was tired of the days of fleeing. He had to enter nether city and become a powerful expert! That was his only chance, and he would not give it up even if he died!
