906: Chapter 902: The Power to Destroy Heaven and Earth!
“How incredible.
Is this the true power of the Power of Life?”
Ye Tian frowned slightly.
He was well-versed in the Power of Life and had used it many times before, but none of those times had demonstrated power on the scale of Yu Xiao’s.
Half a mountain had been utterly destroyed by Yu Xiao, and this was just a punch…
If this battle with Yu Xiao continued, the Heavenly Mountain might soon be left in ruins!
“Heh, heh, heh, heh~~~~~ Ye Tian, now you see—this is the true power of the Power of Life!”
After showcasing her immense strength, Yu Xiao appeared exceptionally pleased with herself.
“The Power of Life is the strongest force in this world.
Thus, it is only natural that it should rule this world!
Ye Tian, the Power of Life you wield is nothing but child’s play before me.
You can never defeat me!”
Yu Xiao declared fiercely, surrounded by a potent and overwhelming aura.
It was the purest, most concentrated manifestation of the Power of Life!
“Indeed!
Yu Xiao, your strength is impressive.
But no matter how powerful you become, I won’t back down.
I will stand in your way and prevent you from destroying the Martial Arts World!”
Ye Tian spoke resolutely.
Even though the enemy before him was extraordinarily powerful, retreat was not an option for him.
After all, Ye Tian had survived on battlefields like these!
“Boss…”
“That kid’s willpower is insanely strong!
His opponent is damn near monstrous, yet he remains utterly unwavering.”
“Regardless of the outcome of this battle, Ye Tian’s fighting spirit and determination are worthy of respect!”
The martial artists observing the duel between Ye Tian and Yu Xiao all couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
To be frank, when Yu Xiao showcased her mountain-shattering power, it became clear to everyone that there was a gap in strength between Ye Tian and Yu Xiao.
But Ye Tian’s indomitable spirit inspired them deeply…
“Stop me?
Ye Tian, what gives you the right to stop me?”
Yu Xiao sneered coldly and charged toward Ye Tian.
“Whoosh!”
Her speed was astonishing.
It was only when she was almost upon him that Ye Tian realized she had closed the distance.
Yu Xiao’s kick landed squarely on Ye Tian, sending him flying skyward before he could even react!
As Ye Tian soared into midair, Yu Xiao tapped lightly with her toes and ascended swiftly after him!
“Ye Tian!
You’re finished!”
Yu Xiao shouted and grabbed hold of Ye Tian’s leg, using herself as a pivot to spin furiously in the air.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~~~~~~~~”
The wild spinning generated a fierce tornado in the sky, its destructive force capable of engulfing the entire mountain valley.
Rocks, trees, even people were swept up by the tornado!
The entire valley was reduced to something akin to hell on earth!
“Dear heavens!
This is no longer a battle between humans!
Flee for your lives!”
“If this continues, even the Heavenly Mountain will collapse!”
“Flee?
With a battle of this scale, where could we possibly escape to?”
…
Even though the martial artists present were practitioners of cultivation techniques derived from the force of nature, greatly surpassing traditional martial artists in strength, they still couldn’t help but feel a deep fear toward Yu Xiao’s power.
Within the Martial Arts World, Yu Xiao and Ye Tian were like a lion fighting a tiger, while the surrounding spectators were merely small animals—caught in the crossfire of the lion and tiger’s ferocious duel.
“Everyone, stay put!”
Seeing how the tornado threatened to destroy the entire valley, Ye Zhihuan immediately shouted.
“Ye Zhiran, Ye Zhicang, Ye Zhirong, quickly form the formation!”
In response to Ye Zhihuan’s command, the Ye Clan’s Four Elders immediately took their places at the east, south, west, and north positions and initiated the Four Symbols Formation without delay!
The so-called Four Symbols Formation was a method of harnessing the force of nature to strike at one’s opponent with various elemental forces.
However, that was just one aspect of the Four Symbols Formation.
In addition to using natural forces as an offensive weapon, the formation also served to stabilize the natural environment and protect those within it.
Thus, with the Four Symbols Formation deployed, the martial artists who were on the verge of being swept away by the tornado were finally safe, shielded by its protective barrier.
This included the martial artists from the Night King Hall, as well as the Inner Sect disciples of the Heaven’s Gate who had used the Quagmire Formation to trap the Night King Hall’s forces.
“We’re saved!”
“Indeed!
But while we’ve been rescued, our stamina is limited; I wonder how much longer we can hold out.”
“It’s not just us whose endurance is running low.
Those four elders are probably at their limits too.”
…
The Inner Sect disciples of Heaven’s Gate couldn’t help but sigh.
Though they’d been rescued, it was only a temporary reprieve.
The Inner Sect disciples had combined their efforts to restrain the Night King Hall martial artists using the Quagmire Formation, but the technique consumed a great deal of energy.
Even these highly skilled disciples found it increasingly difficult to maintain the formation.
If the battle between Ye Tian and Yu Xiao persisted any longer, the Quagmire Formation would inevitably crumble…
The Ye Clan’s Four Elders were in a similar situation.
They had already deployed the Four Symbols Formation multiple times during this conflict, and the strain it placed on them was immense.
The advanced years of the Ye Clan’s Four Elders made stamina a greater challenge for them compared to younger martial artists, and they would not last much longer…
Therefore, all the martial artists temporarily protected by the Four Symbols Formation focused their gazes intently on Ye Tian’s duel with Yu Xiao!
Yu Xiao tightened her grip on Ye Tian’s leg and spun with reckless speed, generating a ferocious tornado.
When the tornado reached its peak strength, Yu Xiao abruptly let go, sending Ye Tian hurtling toward the mountain wall at unimaginable speed through immense centrifugal force!
“Crash~~~~~~~~~~~”
The sound was deafening.
This time, Ye Tian didn’t merely leave a gaping hole in the mountain wall; instead, he plowed straight through it!
Chunks of rock cascaded down as the Heavenly Mountain began to collapse catastrophically!
For the surrounding martial artists, their immediate concern wasn’t the falling debris or the mountain’s impact on the civilians below, but Ye Tian’s condition following the brutal blow.
“Boss, are you alright?
You absolutely can’t lose!”
“Kid, the enemy may be monstrously strong, but you can’t just bow down, can you?”
“Ye Tian, you can’t die!
You’re the hope of the Martial Arts World!”
“Ye Tian, we’ve all lent you our support—you can’t let us down!”
…
All eyes were firmly fixed on Ye Tian.
Suspended in midair, the powerful downward force of his fall was threatening to send him plunging off the cliffside.
The previous strike had pushed the limits of human endurance.
Even Ye Tian, after enduring Yu Xiao’s harrowing attack, was now critically injured.
With the last ounce of his strength, Ye Tian staggered and regained enough stability by stepping onto the debris scattered around, managing to drag himself back into Yu Xiao’s presence.
Meanwhile, Yu Xiao moved nimbly through the air, her face brimming with even greater disdain as she gazed at the ravaged figure before her.
“You’re still not dead?
Even mountains have shattered—how could your mortal body possibly survive?”
Yu Xiao sneered as she glared at Ye Tian.
The earlier attack had inflicted such devastation that surviving it seemed impossible.
By now, Ye Tian was drenched in blood, his body covered in countless wounds, flowing profusely.
Moreover, the injuries were not superficial—Yu Xiao’s overwhelming power had shaken Ye Tian’s internal organs until they were gravely damaged.
That Ye Tian hadn’t lost consciousness and could still stand before Yu Xiao was solely thanks to his mastery of medical arts.
Within his battered frame, his energy was circulating slowly, mending his wounds…
But in the heat of battle against Yu Xiao, no amount of self-healing could turn the tide; it was merely a futile effort.
To Yu Xiao, Ye Tian was only struggling for the sake of appearances…
“Yu Xiao, no matter how powerful you are, you will never crush the human spirit!
The heart is the mightiest force in this world, stronger than even the Power of Life.
You cannot control everyone with mere strength!”
Despite his grievous injuries, Ye Tian gritted his teeth and declared firmly.
Yu Xiao responded with a cold smile.
“Empty words!”
Her body flickered and instantly appeared before Ye Tian, her hand darting out to grip his throat at lightning speed.
At first, Ye Tian had been able to match Yu Xiao evenly, but once she unleashed the full power of the Power of Life, Ye Tian’s strength fell far behind.
Ultimately, this came down to a fundamental issue: Ye Tian had injected all his internal Power of Life and other energies into his wooden saber.
However, the millennium ancient tree’s Shu Xin remained dormant, making it impossible to form a powerful resonance with him.
It was inevitable that Ye Tian would lose to Yu Xiao…
“Ye Tian, your fate is sealed!”
Yu Xiao stated viciously, as Ye Tian was completely devoid of any ability to resist.
“…”
With his throat caught in a deadly grip, Ye Tian was unable to utter a single word.
He had become nothing more than a helpless victim, subject to Yu Xiao’s mercy—or lack thereof.
The surrounding martial artists looked on with crestfallen expressions.
Although Ye Tian had achieved many miracles before, this time it seemed he wouldn’t be able to withstand Yu Xiao’s overwhelming attack.
The disparity in their power was too stark.
No matter how desperately Ye Tian poured everything into this battle, the odds were entirely against him…
“It’s over…
It’s all over…”
“If Ye Tian loses, that monster will annihilate the entire Martial Arts World!”
“To face and fend off three devastation-capable experts consecutively, Ye Tian was already extraordinary.
Unfortunately, he still fell to the hands of the monster in the end.”
