In his view, Ye Chenfeng indeed possessed limitless potential, but even if Ye Chenfeng was an extraordinary prodigy, could he really enhance his strength to the Divine Level tier in a short period of time?
Therefore, a prodigy on the brink of death was not anything to be frightened of.
In his heart, Ghost Saint Huang Chongtian had already determined that Ye Chenfeng was unable to leave this place alive.
After unleashing a stacked Soul Explosion, Ye Chenfeng staggered five steps backward, eyeing the distinctly visible trail of blood on the back of Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji’s head.
He himself had not anticipated that the simultaneous use of two Soul Explosions would combine into one, and the might was not much less than that of a high-grade Soul Technique.
However, upon seeing only a single streak of blood on the back of Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji’s head, Ye Chenfeng marveled at how extraordinarily hard Zhao Wuji’s skull must be.
No wonder Zhao Wuji had confidently claimed that even an Emperor Level Initial Stage expert would need to pay a certain price to shatter his skull.
Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji, whose head had endured a stacked Soul Explosion, turned his body, fixing his gaze tightly on Ye Chenfeng.
He touched the back of his head with his left hand, and when he saw the fresh blood on his palm, his face twisted ferociously, veins bulging on his forehead, he let out a particularly bone-chilling cold laugh, “Hehehe, how many years has it been since someone made my head bleed?
Today, a young brat actually managed to leave a bloodstain on my head?
Good, very good, Ye Chenfeng, you’ve succeeded in angering me, Zhao Wuji.”
Feeling the surge of corpse energy from Zhao Wuji, who was quite a distance away, Huang Chongtian inwardly sensed something was amiss.
He knew Zhao Wuji was an exceedingly arrogant person, especially about the toughness of his skull.
Zhao Wuji was merely toying with Ye Chenfeng just now, but it was clear that Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji was about to get serious.
How could Ghost Saint Huang Chongtian not be nervous?
He quickly spoke up, “Zhao Wuji, keep calm, Ye Chenfeng is someone the young master intends to kill personally, make sure not to act rashly.”
Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji glanced at Huang Chongtian impatiently and shouted, “You don’t need to meddle in this matter.
The Alliance Hierarch only ordered us to keep Ye Chenfeng alive, I will naturally leave him with a breath of life.
If you insist on intervening, I don’t mind having a bout with you.”
Seeing Zhao Wuji’s descent into madness, Ghost Saint Huang Chongtian helplessly shook his head.
He knew Zhao Wuji’s temperament – now no one could dissuade Zhao Wuji, so Huang Chongtian could only let him be.
He spoke coldly, “Zhao Wuji, this is your own doing, when the higher-ups seek accountability, don’t drag me down with you.”
Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji didn’t respond to Huang Chongtian anymore.
His hands clenched tightly into fists, with the Saint Level Peak Soul Force within his body wildly surging, coupled with the dense corpse Qi encircling him, Zhao Wuji’s combat power could truly be said to exceed that of an ordinary Saint Level Peak expert.
Ye Chenfeng, standing not far away, had a serious look in his eyes.
With over ninety percent confidence that he could perform the stacked Soul Explosion again, but considering Zhao Wuji’s skull’s toughness, unless Ye Chenfeng could consecutively land six to eight stacked Soul Explosions on Zhao Wuji’s head, there was a possibility of blasting Zhao Wuji’s skull apart.
Firstly, Zhao Wuji had already suffered a loss and would significantly heighten his guard against Ye Chenfeng, making it extremely difficult for Ye Chenfeng to strike him again; secondly, to consecutively perform six to eight stacked Soul Explosions would undoubtedly deplete Ye Chenfeng’s Soul Force entirely, given the watchful Ghost Saint Huang Chongtian nearby.
While Ye Chenfeng incessantly pondered countermeasures within his heart, Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji had already launched his attack.
His figure appeared swiftly in front of Ye Chenfeng.
In both speed and strength, Zhao Wuji completely outmatched Ye Chenfeng.
Unless Ye Chenfeng entered a controllable Berserk State, he would have the strength to contend with Zhao Wuji.
This time, Zhao Wuji didn’t even give Ye Chenfeng the chance to perform Netherworld Ghost Steps; with a punch, he struck Ye Chenfeng’s chest.
Another punch landed squarely on Ye Chenfeng’s left cheek, sending Ye Chenfeng flying like a sack, crashing heavily onto the ground with hints of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
Xu Hongwen, Li Nan, and Lin Xinyi, who were at a distance, witnessed Ye Chenfeng being blown away by Zhao Wuji with a single move.
Their hearts collectively jumped into their throats.
Meanwhile, Ghost Saint Huang Chongtian, seemingly indifferent, commented, “After all, Ye Chenfeng is merely at the Venerable Level Peak tier.
How could he possibly be a match for Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji?
Once Zhao Wuji gets serious, Ye Chenfeng can’t even withstand a single move from him.”
Ye Chenfeng, whose body lay on the ground, propped himself up with his palms, struggling to remain in a half-crouched position on the ground.
He contemplated entering a controllable Berserk State, but with another Ghost Saint nearby, unleashing such a state would mean Ye Chenfeng would have to fight to the death.
Just as Ye Chenfeng’s Soul Force entered the Space Ring to draw out the bracelet suppressing the red gas – though the bracelet was crushed by Yan Tianjue on the cruise ship, there were several spare bracelets in Ye Chen’s Space Ring – the moment Ye Chenfeng was about to retrieve the bracelet, his gaze settled on the plentiful Earth Flame Crystals inside the ring, especially the Deep Red Earthflame Crystal, which he couldn’t even lift.
If he could activate the Fire Attribute energy in it…
A feasible strategy suddenly emerged in Ye Chenfeng’s mind, and he temporarily abandoned the idea of entering the controllable Berserk State.
But just at this moment, Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji, seeing that Ye Chenfeng still hadn’t stood up, flashed before Ye Chenfeng once again, his foot fiercely kicking towards Ye Chenfeng’s chest.
“Bang!”
As Zhao Wuji’s right foot kicked Ye Chenfeng’s chest, Ye Chenfeng firmly caught Zhao Wuji’s right foot with both hands.
However, from his mouth came a “wah!” as a large mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.
The Soul Force compressed within Ye Chenfeng’s body burst out violently from the palm of his right hand, a standard Soul Explosion shredded Zhao Wuji’s entire right leg.
Feeling no pain at all, Zhao Wuji lost his balance as his right leg was blown to pieces.
Seizing the opportunity, Ye Chenfeng launched another Soul Explosion onto Zhao Wuji’s abdomen, causing Zhao Wuji’s body to be torn apart; his head also rolled to the ground.
“Ye Chenfeng, you’re wasting your Soul Force.
Even if you use that move again, you can’t hope to blow up my head in one or two tries; you’ll only further enrage me.”
“Bang!” As Zhao Wuji spoke, the head of a zombie not far away exploded, and the headless body flew rapidly towards Zhao Wuji’s head.
In Ye Chenfeng’s right palm, a Deep Red Earthflame Crystal now appeared.
His own blood suppressed the energy within the crystal, and all Ye Chenfeng had to do was withdraw the blood and then use his Soul Force to release the energy within the Deep Red Earthflame Crystal.
As the headless body flew towards Zhao Wuji’s head, Ye Chenfeng quickly appeared in front of Zhao Wuji’s head.
As Zhao Wuji once again tried to speak, the moment he opened his mouth, Ye Chenfeng forcefully stuffed the Deep Red Earthflame Crystal into Zhao Wuji’s mouth.
From a distance, the Ghost Saint Huang Congtian didn’t detect Ye Chenfeng using Soul Explosion.
He thought Ye Chenfeng was punching Zhao Wuji’s head and disdainfully said, “Ye Chenfeng is indeed a fool.
Knowing full well he can’t burst Zhao Wuji’s head, he still refuses to give up?
Such stupidity is incomprehensible.”
Xu Hongwen and the other two companions watched Ye Chenfeng’s silhouette with deep concern.
Ye Chenfeng successfully stuffed the Deep Red Earthflame Crystal into Zhao Wuji’s mouth, and at the same time, the headless body connected with Zhao Wuji’s head.
Knowing that there was no time to lose, Ye Chenfeng hastily withdrew the blood from the Deep Red Earthflame Crystal, quickly released the Fire Attribute energy within it with his Soul Force, while his figure violently retreated backwards.
Simultaneously.
“Boom!”
The Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji’s head was engulfed in roaring flames, which burned with a strange color that made the distant Ghost Saint sense the terror.
Screams of the Corpse Saint Zhao Wuji echoed from within the flames: “No, no, this can’t be happening.
How can I, Zhao Wuji, the Corpse Saint, possibly—”
The voice of Zhao Wuji in the flames suddenly stopped, and his entire head turned to ashes in the fire.
