Chapter 1172 1168: Ninth-Tier Divine Spirit Descendant

"No! That's impossible! I must be dreaming!"

"Senior Brother Yang Fan and Senior Sister Luo Yan, how could they possibly be captured by them?" At this moment, the True Disciples of the Human King Hall were all frozen stiff on the spot, as if struck by Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, completely unable to believe their own eyes.

One had to know, Yang Fan and Luo Yan were Core Disciples of the Human King Hall! Their strength was at least comparable to Divine Spirit Descendants of Tier Eight or Tier Nine.

Within this Ancient Secret Realm, logically, no one should've been able to do anything to them.

Yet now, they'd been beaten into this miserable state, left with only half a life.

How were everyone supposed to accept this.

"Heavens! Who the hell are those two? How can their strength be this terrifying!"

"Even the Core Disciples of the Human King Hall have fallen into their hands—who else could possibly stand against them?"

"I'm afraid even Ye Chen isn't their match. This time we're truly finished!" The Human Race experts all sucked in a cold breath one after another, their expressions utterly horrified.

Originally, they'd pinned all their hopes on Ye Chen.

But now, two such terrifying beings had appeared among the Outer Realm Races.

Even for Ye Chen, trying to defeat them alone would definitely be incomparably difficult.

So this time, if no miracle occurred, they would likely all fall here.

"Heh! Those two fellows are indeed pretty strong, but too bad they ran into us." Just then, a burly White Elephant Demon couldn't help but sneer, the corners of his mouth full of thick mockery.

This White Elephant Demon stood a full five zhang tall, and in his massive hand he was gripping a woman.

That woman was none other than Luo Yan.

"No! Senior Brother Yang Fan, I really don't want to die here! Why did we have to run into such terrifying monsters?" Luo Yan's eyes were filled with deep unwillingness and despair.

She had originally thought that, after awakening the Vast Sea Martial Body and possessing strength to rival Tier Eight Divine Spirit Descendants, she could sweep through this Ancient Secret Realm invincibly.

Yet she never imagined she would be easily crushed by the White Elephant Demon before her.

Because this White Elephant Demon was a Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendant, his power far more terrifying than hers.

Even the Vast Sea Martial Body she was so proud of was utterly vulnerable before him.

So in this moment, she was truly in despair.

"Sigh! There's always a higher sky, always someone stronger. Had we known, we shouldn't have come in here to explore." Yang Fan said, his expression deeply remorseful.

The bones and meridians in his body had already been shattered; he'd completely lost the ability to fight.

If not for his awakening of the Star Martial Body, with its tenacious Life Force, he'd definitely already be a corpse.

Even so, today he was destined to escape neither death nor doom.

Because the one who'd defeated and captured him alive was also a Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendant, and even more terrifying than that White Elephant Demon.

In this place today, there was simply no one who could save him.

"Junior Brother Ye Chen, what should we do now?" At this moment, Dugu Yuan's expression was grave to the extreme, as if facing a great enemy.

Even Yang Fan and Luo Yan had been defeated by those two Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendants.

In front of them, he was even more no different from an ant.

Now, probably only Ye Chen had the ability to turn the tide.

"Just two Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendants—I'll crush them directly!" Right then, Ye Chen's icy voice suddenly echoed in everyone's ears, his tone domineering to the extreme.

If anyone else had said such words, everyone would've thought he'd gone mad.

But Ye Chen had even managed to defeat Ye Xia.

He might very well really have a way to fight those two Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendants.

"Hehe! Hahahaha! Did I hear that right?"

"This clueless Human dares say such stupid, ignorant things to Lord Bai Hong and the others—who gave him that kind of courage?" The surrounding Outer Realm Races burst out laughing, looking at Ye Chen as if watching a pathetic jumping clown.

They hadn't seen Ye Chen defeat Ye Xia earlier, so they had no idea how strong Ye Chen actually was.

In their eyes, Ye Chen was just a Golden Core Realm Seventh Layer Human Race Cultivator, yet he dared to spout such arrogant words.

He was simply courting death.

"That guy seems to be Ye Chen. The Spirit-devouring Tree Demon died by his hand!" Some of the Outer Realm Races began to recognize Ye Chen.

"Hmph! The Spirit-devouring Tree Demon was only a Tier Four Divine Spirit Descendant. Compared to Lord Bai Hong, he's ten thousand leagues beneath him.

This guy thinks that killing the Spirit-devouring Tree Demon means he can stand against our Lord Bai Hong—truly overestimating himself to the extreme."

A group of Demon Race experts couldn't help but sneer, their lips curled in thick ridicule.

They knew that their Lord Bai Hong was a Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendant!

Even if Ye Chen truly had the strength to kill the Spirit-devouring Tree Demon, in front of Lord Bai Hong he was no different from an ant.

If Lord Bai Hong wished, he could crush Ye Chen to death with a turn of his hand.

"It's Ye Chen. Has that guy gone insane?"

"He, wanting to contend against Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendants—pure delusion. Today he's destined to be buried with us." Luo Yan and Yang Fan both shook their heads, as if they'd just heard the funniest joke in the world.

All along, Ye Chen in their eyes had been nothing but an ant that could be casually crushed.

And even they weren't the opponents of those two Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendants.

What could Ye Chen possibly use to contend with them!

They really couldn't understand who had given Ye Chen the courage to say such things!

...

"Hmph! Ant, so you're Ye Chen? Speak! Was Black Profound killed by you?" Just then, a young man in Purple Battle Armor suddenly barked at Ye Chen, murderous intent surging all over his body.

This man was precisely the Tier Nine Divine Spirit Descendant who had defeated Yang Fan.

His name was Lei Fei, from the Thunder Dragon Race, and his relationship with Black Profound was extremely good.

Yet not long ago, Black Profound's subordinates had come to inform him that Black Profound was very likely killed by Ye Chen.

This had instantly enraged him like thunder.

So this time, his purpose in coming here, besides wiping out all of the Human Race, was also to get the truth of the matter from Ye Chen's own mouth.

"What? Ye Chen killed Black Profound? How is that possible?"

"With just that guy, how could he possibly have that kind of strength?" Luo Yan and Yang Fan's pupils abruptly tightened, their eyes filled with disbelief.

White Elephant Demon. Thunder Dragon Race.
