Chapter 947
Ye Chu looked at the exquisitely beautiful and otherworldly woman before him, shook his arm, and took a deep breath. He thought to himself that this woman was truly formidable, hitting him until his whole body felt numb. If the fight continued like this, he was afraid he would truly suffer a disadvantage in front of her.
Thinking of this, Ye Chu moved his arm. As it moved, a green lotus flashed between heaven and earth. The green lotus reflected against his forehead, trembling terrifyingly. At this moment, the spiritual energy filling the sky was seized and rushed into Ye Chu’s body, causing his momentum to surge violently.
Ji Die watched this scene, surprised in her heart by Ye Chu’s secret technique. She did not know what kind of secret technique could have such a miraculous effect, actually being able to seize even her power, and even more so, it caused her primordial spirit, which cultivated the Supreme Law Golden Book, to tremble.
“This secret technique of his should also be a Supreme Law. Only a Supreme Law could cause the primordial spirit tempered by the Golden Book to tremble like this. The strength of his intent is not inferior to mine in the slightest. Could it also be because of this secret technique?” Ji Die looked at Ye Chu with some doubt.
Ye Chu did not know the doubts in her heart. His power continued to surge, the green lotus bloomed, and petals danced across the sky. The technique Blossoms Like Brocade danced out. As they flew, the petals transformed into streaks of sword light, terrifying and fierce. Gathering Ye Chu’s laws and intent, as they shot out, heaven and earth were shrouded in an unparalleled sword intent.
The more Ye Chu used Blossoms Like Brocade, the more he felt its extraordinariness. Every time he used it, he had new realisations. This was the profound martial art uniquely taught to him by the Heartless Peak, a symbol of the Heartless Peak’s identity. Ye Chu did not know what other significance Blossoms Like Brocade truly represented, but he knew that this thing was far more than what appeared on the surface.
Petals danced across the sky, and Ye Chu’s intent erupted to the extreme at this moment. As the sword light danced across the sky, it shredded everything to pieces.
“Boom… boom…”
The void cracked under the sky full of petals. Under the blooming of the green lotus, the vast void and the starry sky were all covered by petals.
Seeing this scene, Ji Die’s expression also became somewhat solemn. Although her realm was much higher than Ye Chu’s, she similarly could not deny that she had to respond carefully to the intent and power Ye Chu was displaying at this moment.
“If he had my realm, I would truly have no chance of winning!” Ji Die took a deep breath, feeling somewhat relieved. She thought to herself that although she had not made an inch of progress in the past year or so, at least her realm was still higher than Ye Chu’s. Relying on just this point, defeating Ye Chu was still possible.
“The dancing of ten thousand flowers is indeed dazzling, but it is merely a foil for the butterflies!”
As Ji Die spoke, endless butterflies flew out from her forehead. As the butterflies danced, they landed on the petals, sucking the petals dry. The petals instantly burst, like firecrackers, creating bursts of sound in the void.
Ten thousand butterflies danced continuously, and the sky full of petals was truly just a foil for them. The butterflies were gorgeous and enchanting. As they danced in the void, everyone could feel that each butterfly harboured an extremely terrifying intent and power.
The butterflies and petals continuously dissipated. Ye Chu and the other each manipulated their intent patterns. The starry sky danced, and the nine stars merged into one.
But Ji Die was no less impressive. Ten thousand butterflies surged, breaking out of their cocoons. With every rebirth, they blocked Ye Chu’s sky full of sword shadows. Amidst the dancing of the butterflies, Ye Chu’s sky full of petals gradually began to dissipate.
In the contest of intent patterns, Ye Chu was ultimately at a disadvantage. It was not for any other reason, but simply because Ji Die’s realm was a notch higher.
“Is that so? Although the butterflies are strong, can they suck on poisonous ones?”
Ye Chu suddenly burst into hearty laughter. As he laughed, the petals danced and suddenly all landed on an old vine resembling a python. The murderous aura seeping from the old vine merged into the petals, and there was even a surge of the aura of laws.
“Murderous aura!” Ji Die’s pupils contracted slightly. She was not too surprised, as she and Ye Chu knew each other, and she had known since the General’s Tomb that Ye Chu had special methods regarding murderous aura. She had always been wary of this, but she had not expected that the murderous aura Ye Chu erupted was so terrifying, actually faintly emitting the aura of laws.
Watching each butterfly be obliterated by the murderous aura, there was not the slightest change on Ji Die’s cold and beautiful face. She moved her arm, and as her fingers struck forward, an absolutely powerful force erupted from her body.
“At the fifth level of the Profound Hua Realm, one can faintly perceive the laws of heaven and earth. Although I cannot utilise them yet, I can still taint my power with a trace of their aura. Especially for cultivators like us, the tainted aura of the laws of heaven and earth is extremely terrifying. Your murderous aura is good, but it still cannot do anything to me.” As Ji Die spoke, the terrifying force surged and erupted, transforming into a sky full of butterflies carrying the aura of laws. Although it did not form actual laws, it was much more powerful than before.
This was why Ji Die had the confidence to definitely defeat Ye Chu. The fifth level of the Profound Hua Realm was always much stronger than Ye Chu.
Watching his murderous aura being obliterated by her, Ye Chu frowned slightly in his heart. As expected, a figure like Ji Die was difficult to deal with. If it were any other cultivator, they would have been defeated long ago when he unleashed such a fierce attack. Even those at the fifth level of the Profound Hua Realm would be no exception, yet Ji Die still held the advantage.
The butterflies she manipulated danced, obliterating Ye Chu’s intent patterns. Ye Chu’s intent patterns filling the starry sky were continuously obliterated.
“It is about to be settled, I suppose. For Ye Chu to be able to fight Ji Die to this extent is simply defying the heavens,” the crowd sighed.
“Ji Die is ultimately a notch superior!” There were smiles on the corners of the crowd’s mouths. If Ye Chu were a notch superior to Ji Die, the face of their Ye family would not look good.
“Win? That is not necessarily true!” Ye Jingyun spoke up at this moment. “Do you think these two only have this much strength? At this moment, they have displayed at most seventy percent of their combat power.”
Ye Jingyun had seen Ye Chu’s Heavenly Emperor Fist and knew the terror that Ye Chu’s fists could unleash. Ye Chu had not used it yet, and this battle was going to continue. It was impossible for Ji Die to firmly suppress Ye Chu relying solely on the strength of the fifth level of the Profound Hua Realm.
After Ye Chu unleashed the Heavenly Emperor Fist, if Ji Die did not have corresponding power to resist Ye Chu, she could not win. Of course, Ye Jingyun also understood Ji Die’s extraordinariness. She naturally had extraordinary ultimate techniques held in reserve. Therefore, neither of them had fought to their full satisfaction yet.
“Ye Chu, bring out your ultimate move!” Ji Die looked at Ye Chu. She did not believe Ye Chu had no other methods. Just like herself, she also had a trump card held in reserve.
Ye Chu looked at Ji Die and suddenly smiled. “Since you want to witness it, then I will let you witness it, and tell you that these trifling things are always a flash in the pan, not worth mentioning.”
Ye Chu looked at the sky full of butterflies and laughed loudly. He moved his arm, and as he did, a green light erupted within it. As the green light surged, patterns flashed on Ye Chu’s arm, and his intent struck forward. The crowd only felt as if their chests had been struck by a giant boulder. Looking at Ye Chu’s arm, they felt that his single arm carried the weight of Mount Tai, so heavy that it made their scalps tingle.
And as Ye Chu swung it out, it made people widen their eyes even more. Although it was just a single punch, the crowd felt that it carried the heaviness of a mountain range, blasting straight forward.
