Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 969 - 968: Stomped Underfoot!

They're here!

Even though everyone had already anticipated this scene, they hadn't expected it to come so quickly.

"Let's see what you can do this time!"

Li Yixing sat there, staring coldly at Ye Qingchen, his eyes full of vengeful pleasure. The humiliation and mockery of the past few days made him wish Ye Qingchen would be crushed into meat paste on the spot.

"A堂堂Earth Immortal Sixth Layer powerhouse actually makes a move against an Earth Immortal Third Layer… isn't that a bit too petty and vindictive?"

Gu Shu slowly shook her head.

She saw that Ye Qingchen's bearing was extraordinary, so naturally she had a bit more goodwill toward him and was willing to speak on his behalf.

"He brought this on himself! Since his strength is lacking, he should've behaved himself and kept his head down, instead of learning from others to provoke a stronger expert! The dignity of an Earth Immortal—how can it be offended so lightly? Giving him a bit of a lesson is good! Let him understand what it means that there's always a higher sky!"

Zhou Feihong sneered.

At this moment.

Outside Lotus Platform Mountain, the spectators were all quietly watching Ye Qingchen.

And they saw.

Ye Qingchen sat there, unmoving like a mountain. Strands of vitality were being constantly drawn out by him, flowing through his seven apertures and into his Divine Soul. Not to mention Sun Xuanji, no one present could see what he was doing.

"Ye Qingchen, are you deaf?"

Seeing that Ye Qingchen completely ignored him, Sun Xuanji bared his teeth in a sinister grin and said, "Didn't you say in public that you could kill me in three moves? I happen to want to experience your strength. Hurry up and get your ass up here!"

Countless gazes fell on Ye Qingchen.

Some were doubtful, some regretful, some mocking, but most were gloating.

You have to know.

The gap in strength between the two sides was simply too great.

Everyone had witnessed Sun Xuanji's strength with their own eyes. Even if you didn't mention him personally, just that Mountain-shaking Giant Beast under his control was enough to rival an old Earth Immortal.

And Ye Qingchen?

He was only at the Earth Immortal Third Layer.

However, what surprised people was that Ye Qingchen still sat there, eyes closed, not responding.

This scene made quite a few people frown slightly.

You have to know.

As an Earth Immortal, one naturally has the honor of an Earth Immortal. What's more, at such a grand gathering, with all eyes upon you, even if you're not a match, you would face it without fear. Yet Ye Qingchen sat there motionless, neither accepting the challenge nor responding; in everyone's eyes, this was nothing but cowardice.

"Earth Immortal?"

Wu Wanli spoke with a half-smile, "With courage like his, he's not even as good as the disciples of Taotian Palace. Just him, and he managed to cultivate to Earth Immortal? Truly unbelievable! I heard that in Taotian Palace, he's always relied on Su Moran to back him up, which is why he's been able to act so lawlessly!"

"So it turns out he only has a pretty shell, but is useless inside. As fellow Cultivators, we're ashamed to stand on the same side as him!" A trace of ridicule appeared in Gu Shu's eyes.

"Are you sure that on Heaven-Shocking Peak, it was him who made the move and injured people?" This time, even Infinite Sect's Long Tu frowned slightly, his face full of doubt as he looked at Zhou Zheng Hall beside him: "He doesn't even have the courage to face Sun Xuanji—how could he possibly have hurt them…"

"This…"

Zhou Zheng Hall pondered in a low voice for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Maybe he knows the gap in strength between them is too big, so he doesn't dare get on the stage?"

At this moment.

Even Jiang Yun, who was presiding over the conference, couldn't stand it anymore. He opened his eyes and looked over:

"Ye Qingchen, the Martial Arts Conference does not allow refusal of a challenge! If you don't dare to fight, then please step down from Lotus Platform Mountain!"

However.

Ye Qingchen acted as if he hadn't heard a thing, still sitting there.

"Buzz!"

When this situation was reflected in the eyes of the crowd outside Lotus Platform Mountain, an uproar immediately erupted.

Everyone was looking at him with mocking eyes.

You have to know.

Ye Qingchen's earlier words, "kill you in three moves," still echoed in their ears. Coupled with what they had seen before the conference, many people had been eagerly awaiting this duel between Earth Immortals.

But in the end, this is what they got?

"I thought this kid was so arrogant. Turns out he was just bluffing, waving a tiger's skin as a banner! He doesn't dare to fight, yet he won't step down from Lotus Platform Mountain either—he's practically throwing all of Taotian Palace's face away!"

"Exactly, exactly! Let someone like this cultivate to Earth Immortal—heaven must be blind! If I were Sun Xuanji, I'd just slap him to death and not waste any words!"

"He calls himself an Earth Immortal? That's a joke big enough to make your teeth fall out from laughing!"

The crowd showed no mercy, ridiculing him in waves.

But standing among the crowd, Jin Tianhao watched this scene and secretly sneered:

'A bunch of idiots. With your level, how could you possibly understand Mr. Ye's methods?'

Although the battle at Quanrong Mountain had already been seven whole days ago, every time he recalled that scene, he still felt it was unbelievable.

That battle was simply overwhelming and unstoppable.

In the eyes of ordinary people, figures like Fa Nan and Fa An were like Divine Demons, yet in front of Ye Qingchen, they were nothing but chickens and dogs. Even that final Celestial Immortal Tomb wasn't worth mentioning!

He only regretted that he had signed a Divine Soul Contract and could not speak of that battle!

At this moment.

Seeing that Ye Qingchen turned a deaf ear, the disdain in Sun Xuanji's eyes could no longer be put into words:

"Ye Qingchen, are you scared? If you're scared, then obediently admit defeat and kneel down to apologize to me! From now on, whenever I appear, you'll back off three streets—you're not allowed to show up in front of me!"

Everyone turned to look at Ye Qingchen.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths…

Ye Qingchen still sat there, like a stone statue.

Seeing this.

The mockery in everyone's eyes grew even stronger.

"Just for this act of cowardice alone, I can report to the Sect Leader and have your Elder position stripped away!" Li Yixing thought furiously. "I want to see how you'll have the face to look anyone in the eye from now on!"

And it wasn't just him.

Even disciples like Tuoba Ye and Wu Xingyun, who had been defeated by other sects earlier, were all wearing cold smiles, mocking him in their hearts:

"Ye Qingchen, so you only dare to act high and mighty in front of us! When you run into someone stronger than you, you don't even dare let out a fart!"

Just as Sun Xuanji was growing increasingly impatient.

Just as everyone present had concluded that Ye Qingchen was too cowardly to fight.

Finally.

Ye Qingchen finally opened his eyes slowly.

Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, he turned his head, looked straight at Sun Xuanji, and said:

"You're the one planning to challenge me? I really don't know how you managed to cultivate to the Earth Immortal Sixth Layer, being this suicidal. You've repeatedly acted wantonly in front of me, and I couldn't be bothered with you—did you really think I was easy to push around?"

Ignoring the deepening gloom in Sun Xuanji's eyes, Ye Qingchen continued coldly:

"If you kneel down right now, I can still spare your life!"

"You're courting death!"

Sun Xuanji's gaze turned icy.

At that moment, he could no longer suppress his rage; the aura of an Earth Immortal Sixth Layer burst out at once. He even ignored the fact that Ye Qingchen hadn't yet stepped onto the arena, turning into a streak of light as he shot out, charging straight at Ye Qingchen!

"Just you?"

Ye Qingchen merely let out a disdainful laugh:

"Since you're looking for death, I'll oblige you!"

Boom!

As his words fell, he suddenly stood up tall. In an instant, his aura changed dramatically, like a Holy Mountain rising straight from the ground. At the same time, he took a step forward and, without any warning, appeared directly above Sun Xuanji!

"Kneel!"
