Chapter 710: Chapter 716: Life Sacrifice! Fighting Against the Sky! (Third Update)
Yang Zhen’s burst of fresh blood scared everyone.
Who had ever seen Yang Zhen in such a disheveled state?
His clothes had nearly turned into rags, and blood was dripping all over his body. His spurting blood had almost become a fountain, staining the ground red.
No one had ever seen Yang Zhen in such a state. Even the despicable cat, Hua Youyue, and Han Yan’er had never seen Yang Zhen sustain such serious injuries.
However, what was most unbelievable was that Yang Zhen willingly gave up resisting for the sake of the Sao Saint, allowing the Sao Saint to directly hit him.

Caw – !
The Sao Saint let out a piercing squawk that echoed through heaven and earth. The Thunder element fluctuations on his body became even more violent, countless Thunder Dragons roared furiously around the Saint, flying up and down, as if they were about to destroy the heavens and the earth.
The terrifying gust of wind blew the entire valley into chaos, countless rocks shattered and trees were uprooted. As the violent wind swept across, it lifted a thick layer off the ground.
Such terrifying destructive power exposed everyone to the terror of the will of the heavens and earth.
Under such a violent power, what creature could possibly survive?
Could this be the real Heaven’s Punishment?
Everyone staring at the almost destroyed earth in front of them suddenly felt as if the Tribulation they had passed before was a joke played by the heavens.
Those dreaded Tribulations seemed so insignificant in the face of such terrifying Heaven’s Punishments, almost like a gentle breeze brushing against their faces.
In the eyes of everyone, Yang Zhen, staggering, got up. His face was all covered with blood, but his smile was even brighter.

After Yang Zhen managed to steady his fumbling body, he wiped off the blood from his eyes. He looked up at the Sao Saint roaring angrily in the sky and the Tribulation Cloud looming overhead and suddenly spoke out, “Damn, Sao Saint. Is that all you got? You look all lofty, and even the treacherous heavens adorned you with a thunder robe. Yet you can’t break through my defense?”
With that, Yang Zhen burst out laughing. He waved at the Sao Saint and said, “Come again. Put some strength into it. Don’t let the treacherous heavens look down on us brothers.”
Roar – !
The Sao Saint cawed angrily. The entire Tribulation Cloud seemed to boil up. Faint yellow thunderbolts fell on the Sao Saint, making his presence even more formidable. Amid the overwhelming shadow, it seemed to be the end of the world in the midst of the endless dancing thunderbolts, the surrounding world turned cruel.
Countless people around the Heaven’s Punishment heard Yang Zhen’s words and almost bit off their tongues.
“That bastard Yang Zhen, even at this critical juncture, he still considers for the Sao Saint. If this continues, you’ll indeed be dead!”
“Damn it, Yang Zhen really is a true man! He actually withstood the Heaven’s Punishment with his bare body. And it’s such a terrifying beast Heaven’s Punishment. This… the Sao Saint having such an owner is indeed not in vain.”
“What owner? Didn’t you hear what he said earlier? Yang Zhen did this on purpose, not to let the heavens look down upon them, brothers. Damn it, with Yang Zhen showing such friendship to the Sao Saint, who dares to say Yang Zhen is selfish?”
“That bastard Yang Zhen, he really is admirable!”
…
Countless people felt their blood boil as they watched Yang Zhen, swaying and covered in blood, shouting at the heavens. Their blood almost started to burn.
Hua Youyue looked pale and exchanged glances with Han Yan’er, murmuring, “Yang Zhen, why… why bother?”
Han Yan’er’s eyes filled with tears, and she tightly gripped the Sun Shadow in her hands. The back of her hands, as clean and soft as jade, revealed distinct veins.
The fox-like cat was the most shocked. It dumbfoundedly looked at Yang Zhen, its eyes filled with astonishment. He muttered for a moment before cursing, “This bastard, he’s messing around. If this continues, you’ll die! Don’t you know Sao Saint doesn’t want you to die? This bastard who has fooled countless people, why end up fooling himself? But… damn! He’s so cool! So damn cool! Sao Saint, wake up, damn it!”
By the end of the outburst, stars filled the fox-like cat’s eyes, that twinkled brightly.
Roar——!
The Sao Saint roared, shaking the heavens. The boundless raging dragon on his body roared and rushed towards Yang Zhen, bringing with it a terrifying might, as if it wanted to completely erase Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen laughed heartily, spat out a mouthful of blood, and opened his arms to stand still in the original place. He shouted, “That’s right! Let this bastard of heaven see that we brothers, none of us are easy to mess with!”
Boom——!
The earth shook, the sky changed color, the entire mountain peak crumbled into countless pieces. Yang Zhen’s body was blasted into the ground by Sao Saint, completely disappearing. Even his aura became intermittent.
Countless people, caught in the terrifying wave of energy, were blown off their feet, tumbling over and over before they managed to regain their footing. But they could no longer sense Yang Zhen’s presence.
“Dead…is he dead? Did Yang Zhen really die just like that?”
“Shit! Sends chills down my spine. Yang Zhen is such a passionate man. Could it be that…god really turns a blind eye…to it?”
“Yang Zhen, stand up!” Someone shouted out loud, igniting the surrounding valley.
“Yang Zhen, stand up!”
“Yang Zhen! You better get up! You’re not allowed to die, you cannot die here!”
The brothers Yang Zhen had been searching for over a year were used as celestial punishments to wipe him out. The heartlessness of the heavens drove everyone to despair.
Yet, Yang Zhen stood resilient against the celestial punishment twice with only his mortal body. No one dared to imagine withstanding such an extreme punishment, let alone surviving it. They feared even being slightly singed by it would mean certain death.
Yang Zhen’s reckless actions seemed insane at first. But gradually, everyone’s hearts were ignited with admiration, their eyes glued to Yang Zhen. There was no one among the thousands present who wished for Yang Zhen to succumb to the heavenly punishment.
Such a death would be too great a pity.
“Yang Zhen, stand up!” Hua Youyue murmured. Her face was pale and two tears traced down her pristine cheeks. She hit the ground and scattered into countless sparkling droplets.
“Yang Zhen, you bastard, you can’t die!” Han Yan’er shouted loudly, her vision blurred by tears. But she continued to stare in Yang Zhen’s direction, fearing to miss any detail.
After a while, the world fell silent. Sao Saint’s eyes, once glowing red, seemed to flicker with struggle and gradually faded.
Everyone stared blankly at where the mountain had collapsed, and the mountain wind blew away the dust. The scene was chaotic.
In the silence that followed, people could hear their own breathing.
At that moment, at the highest point of the debris pile, a rock suddenly loosened and fell.
Everyone’s eyes instantly lit up, staring intently at the place where the rock had fallen.
A bloody hand reached out.
Roar——!
The surrounding valley, filled with people, erupted in cheers, completely boiling over with excitement.
Yang Zhen crawled out from the rubble, his body smeared with blood and swaying as if he could be blown over by a gust of wind. But he stood his ground like an unyielding stone, grinning at the crowd.
“Not bad, this time…has been a bit of a challenge. Let’s go again…”
Yang Zhen’s voice was weak. His lips had been busted open, making it slightly difficult for him to speak. His predicament was almost comical, causing people to laugh hysterically. But as they laughed, tears welled up in their eyes.
What the hell was Yang Zhen thinking? He was on the brink of death, yet he was still acting so absurdly.
At that moment, Sao Saint suddenly roared, his body instantly ignited in flames, triggering a series of thunderclaps.
A piercing cry echoed throughout the sky. His eyes, once clear, turned golden.
The flames raged against the sky!
As everyone collectively gasped, a golden flame slowly formed around Golden Crow, quietly burning. It moved in front of Yang Zhen, under his squinted eyes, and slowly ascended above his forehead.
“Holy crap!” Dirty Cat jumped three feet high, his face filled with disbelief: “Life Sacrifice?”
