Chapter 4262: Chapter 4262: Scheming from Behind the Scenes

"If you can’t break it, then please go back."

The old man looked at Ye Chen’s tightly furrowed brows and calmly issued a dismissal order.

"Senior, please grant me a bit of time."

Ye Chen steadied his mind. He had even charged through Dishi Tian’s inner demon; how could he possibly stop here?

"Break ten thousand techniques with force—Reincarnation Tablet, arise!"

In that flicker of resolve, Ye Chen made his decision and suddenly released the Dust Tablet, Wind Stele, Dark Stele, Poison Stele, Flame Tablet, and Spirit Tablet all at once.

Rumble!

At once, the six Reincarnation Tablets spun wildly, unleashing a vast and boundless pressure.

The surrounding Eight Trigrams Daoist aura, under the crushing of the six Reincarnation Tablets, shook violently in an instant.

One force subdues ten societies!

Force breaks ten thousand techniques!

Since Daoist Formation methods could not unravel this Freedom Heaven, Ye Chen turned to the most primitive, most brutal, most direct method.

That was violence!

As long as his power was great enough, it would be sufficient to grind apart all illusions.

This was force breaking ten thousand techniques!

"Oh..."

The old man saw Ye Chen’s six Tablets appear and showed a hint of surprise. Clearly, he hadn’t expected Ye Chen to be this violent, actually wanting to break through directly with brute force.

"Then let’s see whether your brute force is stronger, or my techniques are stronger."

The old man still sat cross?legged, his countenance growing calm, fingers forming hand seals. Countless formation patterns spun as Qian Kun Kan Li, Zhen Dui Xun Gen and other Eight Trigrams Dao Energy transformed into ferocious spell attacks, crazily slaughtering toward Ye Chen.

Rumble!

From deep within Ye Chen’s bloodline came a roar like a volcanic eruption.

His entire body’s brute force exploded, and his reincarnation bloodline also vaguely showed signs of rampaging!

"Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline, open!"

"Soaring Wind Divine Vein, open!"

"Darkest Divine Vein, open!"

"Ancient Poison Divine Vein, open!"

"Dragon Flame Divine Vein, open!"

"Myriad Spirit Divine Veins, open!"

Ye Chen roared again and again, disregarding everything as he fully activated all his divine marks.

The Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline’s Gengjin Iron Wall shielded him from the onslaught of Eight Trigrams killing intent.

The Soaring Wind Divine Vein was continuously absorbing, storing up power.

The Darkest Divine Vein opened, merging with the Dark Source Talisman to create the Dark World of Eternal Night Demon Heaven, enveloping the entire Central Forbidden Island.

And the Ancient Poison Divine Vein also erupted with terrifying poisonous gas, ready to sweep away everything.

The Dragon Flame Divine Vein evolved into fire dragons, baring fangs and brandishing claws, roaring to shake the heavens.

Lastly, the Myriad Spirit Divine Veins brought forth vitality, firmly guarding Ye Chen, not allowing him to be harmed in the slightest.

With the six divine marks opened, Ye Chen’s pressure had already exploded to a terrifying extent.

The earth and mountains shook; the ocean outside the island blasted up thousand?layered giant waves and ten?thousand?zhang billows—a spectacular scene.

The old man seated at the core of the formation, seeing Ye Chen so ferocious, couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.

However, this was still not enough.

His Eight Trigrams Freedom Heaven, its Daoist aura boundlessly vast—even with Ye Chen’s six veins fully opened and his power erupting, it could not be crushed.

"Still not enough!"

"Destruction Dao Seal!"

"Soul?devouring Seal!"

"Heavenly Dragon Eight Divine Sounds!"

"Dharma Flower Annihilation Heaven!"

"Mystic Flames!"

"Burning Heaven, open!"

...

Ye Chen’s eyes were bloodshot as he utterly erupted, unleashing everything he had learned in this lifetime.

His heroic spirit was incomparably unrestrained.

Terrifying Destructive Aura, Hongmeng Ancient Qi, and Divine Fire aura continuously intertwined, merging, and erupting.

Thunderbolt rumbled around him, raging fire surged; savage force pounded the space, shards of space shattering again and again.

"So he had this many trump cards!"

The old man’s expression completely shifted.

Ye Chen’s series of eruptions was practically dazzling; his heart was shaken to the extreme.

Any one of these divine powers, taken alone, would be enough to walk alone under heaven.

But Ye Chen was flinging them out as if they cost him nothing, madly casting them.

His trump cards were so many that it left people utterly dumbfounded.

"Samsara Master, your past life’s layout is not only going to be broken—this kid might even flip over the entire board!"

The old man muttered under his breath, only feeling Ye Chen’s potential to be terrifying.

Given time, he would definitely surpass the Samsara Master of his previous life!

Under Ye Chen’s continuous eruptions, that Eight Trigrams Freedom Heaven was already shaking violently.

"Sword, come!"

"Blood Moon Slaughter Sky Slash!"

Seeing this, Ye Chen gave a cold shout, summoned the Dust?falling Dragon Subduing Sword, and gripped it tightly in his hand.

Chii!

Ye Chen slashed out viciously with one sword; Blood Light exploded, Moonlight surged.

A full four Blood Nights rose slowly in the sky.

The might of the Blood Moon crushed the Void.

Space shattered continuously, letting out piercing roars.

The Crimson Blood Moon Radiance broke through the Eternal Dark Night, spilling down over the entire Central Forbidden Island.

Four Blood Nights—no less than four Blood Nights!

Ye Chen’s level of cultivation in Blood Moon Slaughter Sky Slash rose in that instant!

"Blood Moon Slaughter Sky Slash—that is that person’s martial arts!"

The old man’s expression changed at once; he clearly recognized the origin of Blood Moon Slaughter Sky Slash.

Crash!

Under the overbearing crushing force of the Blood Moon’s Heavenly Might, the entire Eight Trigrams Freedom Heaven completely exploded into nothingness.

And all the surrounding Maze Arrays turned to dust, leaving not a single trace behind.

Force breaks ten thousand techniques!

Ye Chen’s brute force had finally ground apart all illusions!

"Cough... cough, cough..."

After doing all this, Ye Chen only felt utterly weak, as if his body had been emptied out. He propped himself up with his sword, not allowing himself to collapse.

With that mad eruption, his aura was completely exhausted.

Wooo, wooo, wooo...

The six Reincarnation Tablets turned into Streaming Light and fled back into Ye Chen’s body.

Under the nourishment of the Myriad Spirit Divine Veins, Ye Chen’s aura gradually recovered, though his face was still pale.

"Pa, pa, pa..."

The old man smiled, gently clapping, and said, "The Samsara Master truly is extraordinary. Such divine powers are indeed worthy of admiration."

"Senior flatters me."

Ye Chen took a deep breath, restoring his spirit somewhat, and walked toward the old man.

This time, he encountered no obstruction, and there was no confusion from any array; he smoothly arrived at the old man’s side.

"Senior Qi Yunshu told me that you are another powerhouse of the Yin Yang Divine Palace. I wish to consult you about the Samsara Master’s layout."

Ye Chen took out the Yin Yang Jade Pendant, displaying his identity.

"No hurry—have some tea first."

The old man smiled faintly and clapped his hands. The four Great Demon Guards of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting walked out from the nearby woods, each carrying tea, pastries, and other items.

The old man invited Ye Chen to drink tea; his eyes narrowed slightly, carrying a touch of vicissitudes, as if recalling ancient secret histories.

Ye Chen nodded, not impatient in the slightest, and quietly sat down to drink tea.

The four Great Demon Guards of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting stood in attendance to either side.

"You defeated the Dishi Tian Mo Ying, crossed the Inner Demon Tribulation, and then broke my Freedom Heaven. You already have the qualifications to know of the Samsara Master’s layout."

After a long while, the old man took a sip of tea, his tone turning solemn.

"Please instruct me, senior."

Ye Chen immediately grew serious.

The old man said, "This old man’s name is Tian Ziyi. Outsiders call me the ’Hidden Spirit Painting Saint’. Back then, I was a friend of the Samsara Master. He once entrusted me to investigate many matters, among them the identity of the Master of Inner Demon."

"I have already found out: the Master of Inner Demon is Dishi Tian. Unfortunately, I did not have time to tell him this news before he fell."

"Perhaps this is Heaven’s Will. His layout fell still too early. If it had been a bit later, if he had learned Dishi Tian’s identity, killed Dishi Tian first, and then undergone Reincarnation, perhaps many twists and turns would have been spared."
