Chapter 1635: Carrying a Mountain

"Bang!"

While Zheng Qi was in a daze, Gao Yuan suddenly attacked, striking him in the chest with a palm.

Hearing the news that Ye Yuan was not dead, Zheng Qi's mind was shaken, and he was stunned for a moment. How could Gao Yuan let this opportunity slip?

Zheng Qi was sent flying by the palm strike, crashing heavily to the ground, spitting blood.

This palm strike caught Zheng Qi completely off guard, and he took it solidly, now unable even to stand.

It was only because Gao Yuan was severely injured, with less than a tenth of his strength and divine essence, that he didn't kill Zheng Qi.

But for Gao Yuan, this was enough.

His goal was not to kill Zheng Qi, but to escape!

"You... despicable!" Zheng Qi clutched his chest, enraged.

Gao Yuan laughed: "If time weren't pressing, I'd send you to the afterlife! But let me tell you good news: Ye Yuan really isn't dead! And... if nothing unexpected happens, this treasure is probably already his!"

At these words, everyone showed shock.

"This... how is this possible? I clearly saw him killed by that demonic powerhouse. How could he not be dead?"

"Not only is he not dead, but he also obtained the great fortune from the three heavenly gods!"

"How did he do it? Did all our eyes deceive us?"

...

The shock in everyone's hearts was beyond measure. A person they thought had been blasted to pieces had actually seized this great fortune.

Such a thing seemed utterly inconceivable.

Moreover, this time three heavenly god powerhouses were involved. Did they just stand by and watch Ye Yuan take the treasure?

Gao Yuan cast a contemptuous glance at Zheng Qi and was about to leap away.

"Hahaha... Gao Yuan, thank you for bringing me this news! Since Ye Yuan isn't dead, my heart's burden is lifted! Today, I will die together with you!"

Suddenly, Zheng Qi burst into wild laughter, his aura surging!

He stood up abruptly, his injuries healing instantly, and a red glow emanated from his body as if he had gone berserk.

Seeing this, Gao Yuan's expression changed, and he shouted harshly: "Zheng Qi, you're mad! The technique of Withered Sword of Frenzy burns life force and blood essence!"

Zheng Qi was completely insane, laughing loudly: "So what? Back then, Master taught me this technique, telling me not to use it unless at a life-or-death moment! But if I miss today's chance, I don't know how many years it will be before I can kill you again! So today, you must die!"

Under normal circumstances, even if Zheng Qi used this Withered Sword of Frenzy technique, he wouldn't be a match for Gao Yuan.

But today's opportunity was too good. Zheng Qi knew that if he missed it, he might never have another chance to take revenge.

Although Gao Yuan's chance of breaking through to the Heavenly God realm was extremely slim, his own chance was equally slim.

To take revenge, there was almost no opportunity.

And today might be the last chance.

Zheng Qi had waited tens of thousands of years. How could he easily let this opportunity slip?

Gao Yuan's face changed drastically, and he said in terror: "Madman! You're a madman!"

Gao Yuan and Wu Xingtang were powerhouses of the same era, so they were no strangers to this Withered Sword of Frenzy technique.

Using this technique in a desperate situation not only restored full condition but also greatly boosted combat power.

The price was burning lifespan and blood essence!

In his current state, Zheng Qi using this technique was extremely deadly for him.

Without any hesitation, Gao Yuan immediately fled at full speed.

Zheng Qi sneered and shouted: "Where do you think you're going!"

Having used the Withered Sword of Frenzy technique, Zheng Qi's movement greatly increased, and he caught up with Gao Yuan in an instant.

His sword strikes came faster and faster, forcing Gao Yuan into a fluster.

Gao Yuan dared not linger in battle, retreating while fighting.

He knew that Zheng Qi's state wouldn't last long. If he could just outlast him, he would have a chance to counter-kill Zheng Qi.

One chasing, one fleeing, they soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

"All of you stay here and wait for Elder Ye to come out!" Before leaving, Zheng Qi left these words.

Ning Tianping and the others looked conflicted. They hadn't expected the Great Elder to be so resolute.

Shortly after Zheng Qi and Gao Yuan left, sounds of fierce fighting came from behind.

Soon, the figures of Kasuo and the other two appeared before everyone.

But they didn't stop; fighting as they pursued, they too soon disappeared from sight.

Everyone looked at each other, feeling the situation was extremely chaotic, and became very bewildered.

"Kill!"

A ruthless glint flashed in Tian Xing's eyes. He suddenly attacked, killing a human powerhouse with a single move.

The human powerhouses finally came to their senses and fought back.

But now, the humans were leaderless, without anyone to stabilize the situation. How could they be a match for the demonic powerhouses?

Qiao An, unable to resist the temptation, had tried to enter and seize the fortune, but was killed by the combined force of the three heavenly gods.

Now, Tian Xing and Di En were the strongest among this group.

Even with his realm suppressed, he was like a tiger among sheep.

Fortunately, everyone's realm was suppressed, so the humans weren't completely routed, but the situation was still bad.

Now, the powerhouses of Tianying Imperial City became the main force in this battle.

Their strength was well-preserved, and their combat power was strong.

Among the human powerhouses, only Ling Zikun remained as a top expert.

He alone faced two peak Third Layer Divine Lord powerhouses, feeling greatly strained.

But the demons already had a numerical advantage, and the humans' defeat was only a matter of time.

The current situation was very unfavorable for the humans.

"Everyone, hold on! As long as Lord Song Yu and Lord Lei Yi return, we will win!" Ling Zikun shouted.

But the humans were divided into too many factions, each fighting on their own. How could they be as united as the demons?

In the fierce battle, the number of human powerhouses dwindled, suffering heavy losses.

Even on the Tianying Imperial City side, several were severely injured.

"That damned Ye Yuan dares to steal this fortune! Today, you will all pay for his actions! Hahaha..." Tian Xing laughed wildly.

Originally, when he saw Ye Yuan killed by Kasuo, Tian Xing was very excited.

But who knew that Ye Yuan not only didn't die but also obtained this great fortune? Tian Xing felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.

Now, he vented his anger by slaughtering human powerhouses.

The number of human powerhouses sharply decreased, and despair appeared on their faces.

Just then, a young man in white robes stepped out from the depths of the canyon, seemingly slow but actually fast.

With each step the youth took, a deep footprint was left on the ground.

In the youth's hands, he was actually holding a giant mountain!

Yes, compared to his body, it was a giant mountain.

Beneath the giant mountain, his figure appeared very frail, as if he could be crushed into meat paste at any moment.

But the youth's expression remained unchanged, handling it with ease, looking very relaxed and effortless.

"Ye... Elder Ye! It's Elder Ye!" Ning Tianping was the first to spot Ye Yuan, crying out in surprise.
