Chapter 1302 Divine Abilities
Chen Yang stared intently at his opponent and said word for word, "How can I trust you?"
"Leaving behind a peak Core Condensation realm expert is only beneficial, not detrimental, to the human race."
Chen Yang had a rough idea why the other party wasn't attacking. The strength of a peak Core Condensation realm expert was currently suppressed in the Human Realm.
The opponent likely couldn't exert their full power!
Morcha Venerable, while observing the surroundings, suddenly noticed that although the powerful spiritual fluctuations were of a peak Core Condensation realm intensity, the formation shrouding the mansion did not appear to be the work of a peak Core Condensation realm expert.
As a thought formed in Morcha Venerable's mind, he slowly spoke, "Back in the Earth Realm, I always heard about someone in the Land of Hope who nearly killed the Lord of Yaodu Prefecture."
"At first, I didn't quite believe the news, as I had met the Lord of Yaodu Prefecture before."
"With a foundation spanning over a thousand years, the Lord of Yaodu Prefecture was considered one of the strong ones among peak Core Condensation realm experts."
"But later, as more people spoke of it, I roughly understood that this matter was likely not false."
"However, I suddenly thought of something, is this place the Earth Realm..."
As Morcha Venerable reached this point, a smile slowly spread across his lips.
"No one else knows about this passage behind me except myself."
"Even Yaodu Prefecture couldn't know, so the human race certainly wouldn't get any intelligence."
"Therefore, I have a very big guess, which is that encountering you here is purely a coincidence."
Before his words had even finished, Morcha Venerable's figure had already vanished.
The speed of a peak Core Condensation realm expert, even when suppressed by the power of the Human Realm, was absolutely not to be underestimated.
Chen Yang's expression changed. It seemed the opponent had already discerned that his realm was only at the fifth level.
The next second, Chen Yang felt a powerful spiritual energy surge from behind him.
Morcha Venerable had cultivated for a thousand years, and due to his extremely sinister nature, the techniques he learned were equally so.
Assassinating others with a single strike was Morcha Venerable's specialty.
But this time, Morcha Venerable had encountered a true opponent...
Chen Yang's formidable power displayed in countless battles was not due to various techniques, but rather his extremely keen observation skills!
This was a combat skill that Chen Yang had mastered long before becoming a martial artist.
After becoming a martial artist, Chen Yang had honed it to its utmost.
A dark shadow appeared behind Chen Yang.
"Screech!"
Sparks flew, startling Morcha Venerable.
Having missed his attack, Morcha Venerable did not press his advantage and instead retreated cautiously.
Morcha Venerable stared in shock at the chipped dagger in his hand, a hint of unease rising within him: "This dagger of mine is forged from deep-sea ice. Even Core Condensation realm experts with a thousand-year foundation couldn't withstand it!"
"What was that just now?"
"Why could it block my dagger!"
Morcha Venerable considered his weapon to be incredibly formidable, but now... what Chen Yang held was more than just formidable!
To repair the chipped dagger would require him to nurture it with his spiritual energy for at least several years.
Chen Yang lifted the Wood Thunder Sword with one hand, lightning flashing on his arm.
As for his other arm, it was already covered in blood.
Morcha Venerable was, after all, a peak Core Condensation realm expert. Even with the suppression of the Human Realm's rules, he still possessed the strength of a ninth-level Core Condensation expert.
At this moment, Chen Yang also sobered up.
He realized that the reason he had been able to challenge opponents of higher realms all along was due to the Bronze Cauldron as his trump card.
The Bronze Cauldron not only enhanced the spiritual energies within his body but also strengthened his physique.
Now that the Bronze Cauldron was being used to suppress the spiritual domain, Chen Yang could only rely on his physique to contend with a peak Core Condensation realm expert.
The wood spiritual energy within Chen Yang flowed to his injured arm, giving him enough strength to retrieve a top-grade spirit stone and consume it.
After mixing the spirit stone with recovery pills and ingesting them, Chen Yang's eyes locked onto Morcha Venerable, and he said word for word, "Since you've made a move, don't think of leaving."
"A peak Core Condensation realm expert, is it?"
"I've killed a few in the Earth Realm before. Today, I'll see if I can kill one in the Human Realm!"
With the passage unstable, Morcha Venerable naturally couldn't leave.
Chen Yang also dared not let him leave this small city.
The only way was to kill him here!
Morcha Venerable naturally sensed the determination in Chen Yang's eyes. He sneered and scanned the surroundings. Finding no trace of any other Core Condensation realm fluctuations, he roared with laughter, "So, you were bluffing me all along!"
"There's really only you here!"
"The leader of the human race venturing out alone, you're not just brave, are you!"
As for Chen Yang's earlier claim of killing Core Condensation realm experts, Morcha Venerable paid it no mind.
A fifth-level Core Condensation?
Even the most monstrous genius would be hard-pressed to deal with a seventh-level Core Condensation.
Even with the suppression of the rules, he was by no means someone a fifth-level Core Condensation could kill!
"The human leader dying at my hands! The thought alone is exhilarating!"
Morcha Venerable's spiritual energy radiated from within him, his dark spiritual energy beginning to take on a tangible form.
He flung the dagger in his hand, and his spiritual energy instantly condensed.
"Clang!"
As Chen Yang's Wood Thunder Sword deflected the dagger, Morcha Venerable's figure was already before him.
Dark spiritual energy clung to Morcha Venerable's hand, like an abyss, reaching out to engulf Chen Yang.
Chen Yang stood motionless, his eyes even appearing somewhat lost.
Although Morcha Venerable didn't know why Chen Yang was distracted, he wouldn't waste such an opportunity.
"Die for me!"
Just as Morcha Venerable was about to swallow Chen Yang.
"Boom!"
A tremendous roar erupted from Chen Yang, and a sky-shattering thunderbolt directly tore through Morcha Venerable's spiritual energy.
Lightning crackled on the Wood Thunder Sword.
Before Morcha Venerable could react, several arms suddenly appeared behind Chen Yang.
Multiple powerful spiritual energies directly struck Morcha Venerable.
Breaking through Morcha Venerable's spiritual energy to directly attack his body was the most likely path to victory that Chen Yang could envision.
"You... this is divine ability power!"
Terror filled Morcha Venerable's eyes.
Divine ability power was a mark of the Nascent Soul realm.
Although one couldn't master complete divine ability power before the Nascent Soul realm, Chen Yang had touched upon it!
Chen Yang was someone with the potential to become a Nascent Soul realm cultivator!
"Is this the human race!"
"But... wanting to kill me? That's not enough!"
