Chapter 889: Killing Until They Tremble

"It's Bormont! He's been in seclusion for several months now. His strength must be even more unfathomable, right?"

"They're all discussing that when the next Earthly Fiend List comes out, Bormont will probably top it!"

"I wonder where Ye Yuan got the courage to challenge Bormont. This way of committing suicide is truly heroic."

Bormont's appearance caused quite a stir.

He ranked third on the Earthly Fiend List and first on the third level of the Shura Field, with formidable strength.

Even in Shura mode, no one would be foolish enough to challenge him, yet Ye Yuan did.

In everyone's eyes, he was naturally a fool.

Bormont's strength was deeply ingrained; even if Ye Yuan had a glorious record, he could not replace him.

Moreover, in Shura mode, whether Ye Yuan could survive to meet Bormont was a matter of debate.

Yan Shan glanced at Bormont, a hint of fear in his eyes. Clearly, he too was extremely wary of Bormont.

It made sense for Ye Yuan to challenge him, Yan Shan, to avenge the Demon King, but challenging Bormont was pure suicide.

All the challenged parties were present. The gray-robed middle-aged man came to the center of the arena and announced, "Ye Yuan challenges Shura mode. It is now officially open! First battle, Hua Jun!"

Hua Jun approached Ye Yuan with a mocking expression, sneering, "Kid, you really don't know your place. Today, let your Uncle Hua teach you..."

Hua Jun was only halfway through his words when a streak of light flashed in Ye Yuan's hand, and Hua Jun's voice abruptly stopped.

"Next!"

Ye Yuan's indifferent voice rang out, like a curse from the Grim Reaper, sending chills down the spines of all the martial artists present.

"Pfft..."

Blood spurted like a fountain. Before Hua Jun knew what had happened, he had already met the King of Hell.

From start to finish, it took less than a second.

The sword strike was as fast as lightning; no one had time to react. They never expected Ye Yuan to strike without warning and kill with a single blow!

So unreasonable! So ruthless!

With a thud, Hua Jun fell to the ground, no longer breathing, leaving only the fountain-like blood still gushing.

"Idiot! Once Shura mode is activated, it's a life-and-death battle, and he still had time to waste words with that brat!" Yan Shan said grimly.

As for Ye Yuan's one-hit kill, Yan Shan was not concerned. Killing someone of Hua Jun's level was something he could do as well.

"Next, Wan Ziheng!" The gray-robed middle-aged man's voice rang out again, cold and devoid of emotion.

But deep in his eyes, a flicker of surprise passed.

Others might not see it, but he did. Ye Yuan's move just now was not some profound martial skill, but the not-so-advanced soul technique 'Sword Control Art'!

The Sword Control Art was not particularly impressive among soul techniques, but Ye Yuan used it effortlessly to kill a top hundred expert on the Earthly Fiend List. How deep must his foundation be?

In the gray-robed middle-aged man's view, Ye Yuan had chosen the most efficient and effective way to kill his opponent.

This also showed that Ye Yuan's control over battle was extremely precise!

Such an opponent was truly terrifying!

As soon as Wan Ziheng entered the arena, Ye Yuan suddenly erupted and threw a punch at him.

Wan Ziheng's expression changed, and without thinking, he raised his hand to block with a palm.

"Boom!"

Wan Ziheng was sent flying, crashing heavily into the formation, and then fell silent.

"Next!" Ye Yuan's voice remained calm and emotionless.

But at this moment, neither the watching martial artists nor those who had been challenged could manage a smile.

If Hua Jun could be suspected of a sneak attack, then Wan Ziheng had fought head-on. Ye Yuan had directly killed Wan Ziheng with absolute, overwhelming strength!

They never imagined that Ye Yuan could be so powerful!

"Next, Cao Chen!"

"Next..."

The gray-robed middle-aged man called out name after name, each stronger than the last. Yet against Ye Yuan, the best any of them managed was to last three moves!

"Too... too strong! How can this kid be so strong?"

"Those are all top experts on the Earth Fiend List, yet they can't even last three moves under Ye Yuan!"

"Who the hell said this kid came here to die? This guy is a god of slaughter himself!"

The martial artists in the stands were utterly stunned. Watching legendary figures fall one after another, their hearts clenched, and they could barely breathe.

As for those who had yet to be called, their faces turned extremely ugly.

To have reached their level, who among them wasn't iron-willed? Yet seeing people of similar strength fall one by one, the impact was still too intense.

They... were afraid!

Ye Yuan's brutal and ruthless method of slaughter chilled them all to the bone!

"Next, Guo Ziming!"

Hearing his name, Guo Ziming trembled involuntarily and hesitated to step forward.

"Next, Guo Ziming!"

Guo Ziming ranked fifty-third on the Earth Fiend List, not far from Sun Qi, which was already an impressive achievement in the Heavenly Enlightenment Realm.

Yet facing such a formidable Ye Yuan, he dared not take a single step forward!

He shook all over, unable to move.

"Next, Guo Ziming! Ten breaths, if you do not appear, you will be executed!" The gray-robed middle-aged man's voice rang out a third time.

Guo Ziming shuddered and involuntarily took a step forward.

But after that single step, he still dared not advance.

"Bang!"

After ten breaths, Guo Ziming's entire body exploded. Clearly, he had been directly executed by the Asura Field.

Seeing this, the others' faces grew even more grim.

Death itself was not terrifying, but the agony of waiting to die was unbearable.

"Next, Qi Hao!" The gray-robed middle-aged man showed no emotion and called the next name.

Qi Hao's face darkened. Witnessing Guo Ziming's tragic end, he dared not delay any longer. He leaped forward and landed before Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan wasted no words; he immediately used his sword-controlling technique.

Qi Hao's strength was far beyond Hua Jun's. With a flicker, he dodged the sword.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

After the first strike, Qi Hao refused to engage Ye Yuan directly. He deliberately kept his distance, denying Ye Yuan any opportunity.

Clearly, he intended to stall for time.

"Hmph, if I don't fight you head-on, no matter how strong you are, what can you do to me?" Qi Hao sneered inwardly.

But the next moment, his expression froze.

Under Ye Yuan's magnetic field, his body suddenly stalled, and then he knew nothing more.

"Anyone who wants to kill my brothers must be prepared to die!" Ye Yuan's words were murderous, sending a shiver through everyone.
