CHAPTER 834: CHAPTER 834: EMPEROR REALM POWERHOUSES

The only thing that hasn’t returned to normal is the hair.

At this moment, Ling Chen still had a head of white hair.

"Xiao Wu, I’m fine."

Ling Chen conveyed mentally.

Ling Wu had been sending messages earlier, he needed to reassure her first.

Hearing this, Ling Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"How could this be?"

Qi Tianyan was full of disbelief.

The life-taking secret technique takes away the cultivator’s vitality, which is life force.

Even if Ling Chen didn’t die, he shouldn’t have recovered!

Although the hair hadn’t recovered, from the life force exuding from Ling Chen’s body, it was clear that most of his life force had definitely returned.

This secret technique, the sect had told him, cannot be resisted except by an Emperor Realm powerhouse.

However, Ling Chen was merely an eleven-star emperor.

The gap to the Emperor Realm was still far!

How could he withstand this secret technique?

He simply couldn’t believe it!

Mu Qing also stared at Ling Chen, dumbfounded.

It was shocking enough that Ling Chen survived, but to have his lost life force return was nothing short of a fairy tale!

"Die for me!"

Qi Tianyan snapped back and, with a thought, launched a divine soul attack.

He condensed a dagger towards Ling Chen’s divine soul.

"Tricks of the trade!"

Ling Chen sneered.

Letting the short blade formed by divine soul telekinesis fall into his sea of consciousness.

As soon as the short blade entered the sea of consciousness, it was intercepted by numerous red lotus karmic fires.

In an instant, it was completely incinerated.

"It’s time to send you on your way!"

Ling Chen’s eyes turned icy cold.

Qi Tianyan made a move to kill him; if he had been lucky, he would have actually fallen at this moment.

No matter the background of the former, Ling Chen was determined to kill him!

"Boom!"

Ling Chen stomped the ground, and his figure immediately soared into the sky.

"Boom!"

A terrifying aura burst out from Ling Chen as he stood thousands of feet high.

"Eleven-star emperor?!"

The hidden sect disciples were in a panic.

Ling Chen could make them flee at ten-star emperor, let alone now, as an eleven-star emperor!

"Eleven-star emperor?"

Mu Qing was somewhat stunned.

Soon his face showed ecstatic joy.

Ling Chen not only passed through this calamity safely but even his cultivation slightly increased.

He understood!

"Tai Chu Calamity Relief Pill!"

Mu Qing was overjoyed.

Only by taking the Tai Chu Calamity Relief Pill could Ling Chen survive such a calamity and still increase his strength.

Unexpectedly, Ling Chen was so fortunate to have acquired the Tai Chu Calamity Relief Pill!

"What?!"

Sensing Ling Chen’s aura, Qi Tianyan’s face turned pale.

His life-taking secret technique could only be performed once a month.

Now, he simply couldn’t perform it.

And Ling Chen unexpectedly escaped death, with his cultivation rising again, probably no one could stop him!

"Prepare to die!"

Ling Chen shouted coldly, as green and red sword qi burst out from the mystic sword in his hand.

Directly performing the sixth form of the Green Lotus Sword Manual, the Green Lotus Dragon Transformation.

A green and red giant dragon emerged.

"Help me!"

Qi Tianyan looked toward Gu Wenzhao and the others next to him.

However, Gu Wenzhao and the others instantly dashed a hundred feet away.

They couldn’t bear even the attacks of a ten-star emperor like Ling Chen.

Let alone now, with Ling Chen promoted to an eleven-star emperor!

"You guys!"

Qi Tianyan’s face turned stark white.

In the moment of crisis, a purple jade appeared in Qi Tianyan’s hand.

Divine soul telekinesis instantly injected.

At this moment, the green and red giant dragon descended, directly slamming towards Qi Tianyan.

"Boom!"

A thunderous sound exploded forth.

Endless terrifying energy gushed out.

The shockwave storm raged.

When the storm cleared, an incredible scene appeared.

"You’re actually fine?"

Ling Chen looked at Qi Tianyan, full of astonishment.

Only to see the latter’s robe was intact, without any sign of damage.

This Qi Tianyan was merely a divine thought master.

Such an attack definitely wasn’t something an upper-grade Emperor Realm divine thought master could withstand.

"Boy, dare to lay a hand on Heavenly Destiny Sect’s disciple, are you tired of living?"

A voice came from in front of Qi Tianyan.

Ling Chen looked closely and found a phantom divine soul standing before Qi Tianyan.

Though it was just a divine soul, it contained a terrifying aura!

"Emperor Realm powerhouse?!"

Ling Chen’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

This Qi Tianyan, worthy of being a hidden sect’s prodigy.

Unexpectedly protected by an Emperor Realm powerhouse.

Could this mean there is a true Emperor Realm powerhouse within the Heavenly Destiny Sect?

An Emperor Realm powerhouse indeed!

Throughout Qing Province, he only knew of one person: the Lord Governor.

It seems today, wanting to kill Qi Tianyan may be impossible!

Though it’s just a divine soul, it’s not something an emperor like him can resist!

However, he wasn’t afraid.

Mu Qing, being the State Governor, would naturally protect him.

"Brother Qi, long time no see!"

A figure appeared in the Void Realm.

It was Qing Province’s State Governor, Mu Qing.

"Brother Mu!"

Qi Jing’s divine soul cupped his hands.

His goal was merely to protect Qi Tianyan, not to kill Ling Chen.

As the sect master of a hidden sect, descending again, he naturally wouldn’t directly clash with the Azure Emperor.

Mu Qing nodded with a smile, "Brother Qi, let the young ones compete; let’s not intervene."

For him, these hidden sect individuals were also not to be provoked.

Though the majority of hidden sects had significantly lost their strength,

over the years of recuperation, the Heavenly Destiny Sect had probably restored quite a lot of power.

Moreover, no one knows what kind of trump cards these sects with millennia-long legacies might have?

Therefore, Mu Qing was also unwilling to make a move.

"Of course."

Qi Jing said, "Tianyan has lost, so we’ll be leaving."

A mere Qing Province champion list isn’t as important as Qi Tianyan’s life.

The reason for having Qi Tianyan participate was just to showcase the name of the Heavenly Destiny Sect.

Now that Qi Tianyan has lost, there’s no need to stay here.

"Okay."

Mu Qing nodded.

Qi Jing took a deep look at Ling Chen and said, "Tianyan, we’re leaving."

"Yes!"

Qi Tianyan responded.

He also gave Ling Chen a hateful glance.

His eyes filled with venom.

If it weren’t for Ling Chen, he could definitely have dominated the champion list this time!

Let the name of the Heavenly Destiny Sect echo across Qing Province!

Unfortunately, it was ruined by Ling Chen.

"This Heavenly Destiny Sect truly lives up to its name!"

In the State Governor Mansion, the senior officials of Qing Province were all astonished.

No wonder, after the Heavenly Destiny Sect appeared, the Lord Governor personally visited once!

It turns out there are such strong people!

"It’s fine if he’s not dead; it just saves me the trouble!"

Xiao Qian smiled slightly.

Eleven-star emperor, so what?

In his presence, still not worth mentioning!

When Ling Chen comes out, he will act quickly and seize the mystic sword.

In the Void Realm.

Qi Jing’s divine soul stretched out and tore a gap in the void.

Then, using Heaven and Earth Power, he enveloped Qi Tianyan, preparing to traverse the void.

Unable to climb the champion list, there’s no reason to stay here.

Though defeated, he believed it was very beneficial to Tianyan’s growth.

Watching the two step into the void, Ling Chen was helpless, only able to let them leave.

"If I were an Emperor Realm powerhouse, how could I let my enemy leave safely?"

Ling Chen clenched his fists tightly.

His eyes shot out sparks of hatred.

This Qi Tianyan almost killed him once.

If not for the Tai Chu Calamity Relief Pill taking effect, he would have truly died.

Last time, this Heavenly Destiny Sect helped the Burning Flame Sect in the Eastern Domain.

This debt, Ling Chen hasn’t settled yet!

Now, the Heavenly Destiny Sect directly made a move to kill him.

How could Ling Chen not be furious?
