Chapter 1211: Challenge Accepted!

Han Yun looked at the group cautiously and said, “The best solution now is to have everyone disperse. Otherwise, if we gather in one place, we will all be killed. We’ll wait for Ye Chen. He will come out of seclusion in three days!”
“After that, we’ll have to act in accordance with the situation!”
Hei Yao was confused. “Ancestor Han, why?”
“That’s right! We have so many Supreme Emperor realm experts, so we can kill Wei Wucheng if we go all out,” Ruo Han chimed in.
Could it be that they could not kill a single person if all of them attacked together?
“You don’t understand,” Han Yun sighed.
“Han Yun is right,” Elder Bai Zhan said, “Those who have reached the middle-stage of the Semi Divine realm have already grasped the power of the divine realm. They’re considered immortals. Ordinary attacks will be useless against him. Moreover, he can use soul attacks!”
Bai Zhan looked around him and shook his head. “No matter how many Supreme Emperor realm experts we have, none of us have cultivated soul techniques, and will not be able to withstand a single soul attack. Everyone will die!”
“If we could block his soul attacks, we could at least stall for him. However, no one here can do that.”
“Let’s go!”
He paced back and forth for a few steps. “It’s best to disperse before the hall master comes out of seclusion. Besides, the people who came to the Kunlun Mountains this time are too powerful!”
“In the past, seven people from the Blood Spirit Clan would come to the Kunlun Mountains every hundred years.”
“However, the strongest one would only be a second-level Semi Divine realm expert. I might be able to barely hold my own against one of the ninth-level Supreme Emperor realm experts, but a fifth-level Semi Divine realm expert is impossible to defeat!”
“Therefore, we should disperse!”
He exchanged glances with Han Yun, Duan Huai An, Ye Wudi, and Ye Feng before saying, “Let’s go!”
“Now that Wei Wucheng is here, the Huang family can launch a large-scale attack. If he enters the fray, or those with him, we might lose well over a thousand Supreme Emperor realm experts!”
They had no choice, as Ye Chen was cultivating in seclusion. Only once Ye Chen left seclusion could the decision on whether to fight or retreat be made.
If they fought now, they might be wiped out even before Ye Chen left seclusion. Therefore, it was best to wait. After all, the enemy had given a time limit of ten days.
“Good!”
“I’ll discuss it with the sect masters of the Hundred Sect Alliance.” Duan Huai An nodded and quickly led his disciples away.
Han Yun hesitated for a moment before saying, “My men will not disperse. We will stay here.”
“We won’t leave either. The Hall Master is the leader of the Body Refining Land,” Elder Bai Zhan said, “However, we will spread ourselves out within the surrounding mountain ranges as much as possible!”
“Tell the twelve sects to disperse, especially the Holy Herb Valley, Luo family, and the two alchemy masters. Have them hide quickly!”
After Bai Zhan finished speaking, he went off to pass down instructions to the demonic beasts and plants.
No one had expected the Blood Spirit Clan to suddenly descend, so they could only try their best to disperse their forces to avoid being wiped out by the Blood Spirit Clan.
…
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the outside world was on tenterhooks and in full panic mode.
More than two hundred sects had dispersed. Some sects had already pledged allegiance to the Blood Spirit Clan, and there were many minor sects who were prepared to do the same at any moment. They had initially vowed to fight against the Blood Spirit Clan, but in the face of imminent danger, they forsook their vows.
They believed that Ye Chen was doomed.
Bang!
A stone flew out, and Ye Chen slowly walked out of the place where he had been cultivating in seclusion. His gaze swept across the crowd before him. “I already know about the Blood Spirit Clan,” he said.
“Trial?” He held a saber in his hand and said disdainfully, “They want to challenge me in the arena one by one?”
“Alright then, I’ll kill them one by one!”
“So what if he’s a fifth-level Semi Divine realm expert?”
Han Yun was a little worried. “You haven’t grown to your full potential yet, but Wei Wucheng has already been famous for over a thousand years and cultivated for over five thousand years. You don’t have to fight him now, right?”
Wei Wucheng’s period of cultivation was almost two hundred times longer than Ye Chen’s!
There was no need for him to fight Wei Wucheng now!
Besides, Wei Wucheng was not the only one. There were five more youths; the weakest of which was a ninth-level Supreme Emperor realm expert who was far stronger than the Ancestor of the Huang family.
In Han Yun’s opinion, Ye Chen should bide his time and return for revenge in the future. Even though Han Yun wanted revenge, he felt that Ye Chen’s chances were too slim in this situation.
“Hall Master!”
“It’s better not to go!” Ye Lingtian also understood how powerful the enemies were this time, and truly felt that Ye Chen should not go.
“Hall Master, you can’t go! We can leave through the Spatial Teleportation Formation!”
Bai Zhan, Han Yun, Ye Lingtian, and the others did not want Ye Chen to go.
How could a seventh-level Daoyuan realm cultivator fight a Semi Divine realm expert from the Blood Spirit Clan? Even if Ye Chen’s combat prowess was heaven-defying, he could not bridge the gap between the Daoyuan realm and the Semi Divine realm. Those were two major realms, and it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
No matter how powerful Qing Jian was, even armed with a second-grade immortal artifact, he would only be able to fight a first-level Semi Divine realm expert, and perhaps might be able to stall a second-level one.
A fifth-level Semi Divine realm expert was completely out of the question!
If Ye Chen went, would that not be equivalent to sending himself to his death?
“Since the Blood Spirit Clan has arrived early, I can save myself the trouble of waiting a year and kill them now!”
“Besides, what’s the big deal?” Ye Chen’s tone was calm. “When I was an origin king realm cultivator, I could fight Supreme Emperor realm experts and even kill an eighth-level Supreme Emperor realm member of the Blood Spirit Clan.”
“Now that I’m a seventh-level Daoyuan realm cultivator and about to reach the Supreme Emperor realm, what’s there to be afraid of?”
Blood Spirit Clan? So what?
‘A mere Semi Divine realm expert wants to put me on trial?’
‘Fine, I’ll go. But I’ll be the one judging you, not you judging me!’
‘If you want to use these battles to evaluate your disciples, I’ll kill them one by one. Let’s see how long your arrogance lasts!’
Moments later, scarlet-gold light appeared around Ye Chen’s body as a golden phantom appeared. It looked very similar to Wei Wucheng’s.
It looked down at the Huang family’s Supreme Emperor realm experts in the Kun Valley and the people from the other families and sects who had come to inquire about the situation. Its voice resounded. “I will go to Qianjue City in seven days!”
“When I do, I will kill the members of the Blood Spirit Clan!”
“That Elder of the Blood Spirit Tribe is called Wei Wucheng, right?”
“Tell him to wash his neck clean. I’ll pass judgment on him for the crimes the Blood Spirit Clan have committed against the Kunlun Mountains. I’ll chop off his head!”
His voice was infused with his blood energy, so it echoed throughout the Kunlun Mountains and lingered for some time.
Ye Chen accepted the challenge!
Shock filled everyone’s minds, but many of them quickly rushed back to their sects and families to deliver the news.
