Chapter 104: The Royal Soul Bell Takes Action
Towering purple flowers swayed gently, causing the earth to shake and mountains to tremble. A loud, purple glow descended, carrying boundless power, catching Ye Chen off guard. The purple glow enveloped him, its boundless power pressing down on him like a massive mountain, sending Ye Chen stumbling backward, almost crushing him.
With a single sword, he barely managed to bend his body, and the powerful force made Ye Chen feel like vomiting blood. The black and white sword energy enveloped his entire body in an instant, resisting the heavy pressure. Ye Chen let out a loud roar, and his entire skeletal system creaked as he slowly straightened up.
The purple glow was not only incredibly oppressive, but its momentum was also not weak. The sharp sword energy of Ye Chen couldn't even cut through the purple glow, and it only made a small incision about one meter above Ye Chen's head, making him feel slightly more at ease.
The power of the purple flowers gathered from all directions is astonishing, and Ye Chen has fully felt it now. With small accumulation, when a small amount accumulates to a certain number, it will definitely cause a qualitative change.
The enormous pressure was like a mountain, making it difficult for Ye Chen to take a step forward. It was extremely hard to move even an inch, let alone harm the crystal-clear purple flower. That would be utterly impossible. The purple glow seemed to have a consciousness of its own and slowly increased the pressure on Ye Chen.
The crack on Yechen's head was slowly shrinking, and even if Yechen's strength had increased a lot, he was still very weak under the purple light. This was because Zihua didn't have any extremely powerful attacking methods, otherwise, Yechen would have been defeated completely.
However, the purple glow alone made it difficult for Ye Chen to move forward. The pale purple petals seemed to have found their target and were rushing towards him. This entity was not afraid of Ye Chen's abnormal martial arts skills, which he had practiced before.
The purple flower didn't know that Ye Chen was now too afraid to use that technique, so he still thought Ye Chen's technique couldn't absorb physical attacks. Those petals under the control of the purple flower flew quickly towards Ye Chen to attack him.
The black knife in Ye Chen's hand danced with difficulty, but the speed was really too slow. Under the pressure of this purple light, the black and white sword energy couldn't play a big role either. The purple flower petals came crashing over like a machine gun, causing Ye Chen's face to change greatly. The attacking power of these flower petals was also astonishing! Ye Chen didn't dare to take it head-on.
Whoosh! A green light shield suddenly appeared in front of Ye Chen and the flower petals, and a dull thudding sound was heard. The flower petals did not cause much damage to the green light shield, and Ye Chen only saw the green light shield twist and deform, but it did not break.
Little bear Momo also appeared in the purple light shield at this moment, and the overwhelming momentum reappeared with the appearance of Little Bear. The little bear walked into the purple light halo in mid-air with a light and casual attitude.
The purple glow carrying the power of Wan Jun didn't cause much trouble for Little Panda, a circle of green glow emitted from the emerald bamboo pole in Little Panda's hand, gently blocking the pressure of these purple glows.
The strength of the little bear cat has been upgraded again in Yechen's heart, but looking at that cold gaze, Yechen feels that this little bear cat is not like Momo after all. The body is still the same, but the thinking and personality may not be the same.
However, for the little panda to save itself, Ye Chen was still full of gratitude, mobilizing its whole body's strength, and the black and white sword energy increased again. Ye Chen didn't worry about those purple flower petals, turned around and moved forward inside.
Those purple petals attacked in vain, and they all flew back to the stem of the purple flower, re-forming a flower. The purple glow emanating from the towering purple flower increased again, and Ye Chen's body arched, almost falling over.
Even Ye Chen's physique, which was at the third stage of the Innate Realm, couldn't withstand this powerful oppressive force. The Heart Method of the Transforming Sword Technique that Ye Chen was using also didn't have any effect. Although the Heart Method could stir up the peerless good sword hidden in his Dantian, it was unclear whether it was because Ye Chen's realm was too low, but the Dantian only trembled slightly before falling silent once again.
Ye Chen could only continuously circulate his inner energy, allowing it to permeate throughout his entire body. Although this wouldn't last long, it did alleviate some of the burden. This time, Little Panda didn't help Ye Chen; its previous intervention was merely because the Devouring All Things technique had stirred up his heart.
Ye Chen and Little Panda formed a stark contrast, one struggling to move forward, the other effortlessly gliding along, both arriving beneath the purple flower.
The crystal-clear purple flowers lean over in front of the leaves and little pandas with their purple light shining recklessly.
The pressure that wanted to crush the heavens and earth was so great that it directly caused Ye Chen's body to seep out blood, his long knife stuck in the ground, his face flushed red, all of his internal energy circulating on the surface of his body, causing Ye Chen's body to be elevated once again.
But in this situation, that little boost was of no use at all. His body was compressed, making Ye Chen feel like he had been flattened.
Seven orifices bleeding, his body was also seeping with bloodstains. The black gas around Ye Chen's body churned and rolled, while the white gas seemed to be suppressed.
In Ye Chen's body, in the dantian, there was a small black sword and a dark black clock. The small black sword remained still, suspended in the center of the dantian's qi sea, while on the other side, the dark black clock seemed to have an urge to shed tears, if a spirit body could cry.
Yu Jing Zhong was originally a powerful artifact in the world, although not as strong as a divine artifact, it also had its own unique place, otherwise it would not have been restricted for so many years towards Da Kun.
If it weren't for this absolutely divine black sword, the Soul Bell wouldn't have been defeated, almost shattered. In the end, I had to sign a contract with this young human, and it was a master-slave contract. Once the master dies, how can the servant survive?
The soul bell has a very ancient soul, of course, it doesn't want to die like this. The longer it lives, the more afraid it is of death, just like those who are indifferent to life and death are extremely rare.
It's clear that Yu Ling Zhong didn't reach that level, otherwise he wouldn't have signed the master-servant contract for survival, and it was even done without Ye Chen knowing.
But it's also good this way, saving the young master from making his own decisions and enjoying a leisurely life.
But unfortunately for this young master, he didn't know if it was bad luck or not, but he actually encountered the Violet Sea and even provoked its convergence.
Originally, the Yuanshen Bell only emitted some black soul energy to help Ye Chen increase his strength, but now that he has encountered this purple flower condensed into a single purple flower, this bit of strength is really not enough.
Yu Ling Zhong couldn't let Ye Chen die, of course. The black sword that had previously dominated Yu Ling Zhong knew this all too well. If the black sword were to make a move, the purple flower would pose no threat whatsoever. But now, the sword didn't budge, and Yu Ling Zhong certainly couldn't force it to act. He could barely dodge in time.
So he could only take action himself, and then that rolling black gas appeared, surrounding Ye Chen's body.
"Three thousand noble souls, one path to immortality." The ancient and weathered voice thundered out from within Ye Chen's body.
As the hoarse voice faded away, the black gases surprisingly stopped churning at that instant, and Ye Chen suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
Seven black silhouettes emerged from Ye Chen's body, leaving him stunned and wondering when his body had hidden seven people.
