Chen Tian, hearing the system's words, had nothing to fear. He directly confronted the ruffian youth head-on and said, "I am meddling, so what? I will protect this little one. Leave quickly."
The ruffian youth's face showed mockery. "With you alone? Do you think you have that strength?"
The ruffian youth gestured, and a young man standing nearby slowly stepped forward. The ruffian youth spoke, "Boy, if you can defeat my subordinate, I'll admit you have some strength to meddle. Of course, only some strength; you're not enough for me to make a move."
"Although it's not very honorable to deal with a martial artist of the first tier, only those present know about this. As long as you die, then fight."
The young man stepped forward and stood before Chen Tian. Chen Tian looked at the young man, who was weaker than the ruffian youth. The ruffian youth was the strongest among these people, evident from their auras. The ruffian youth's aura was clearly a level higher. Chen Tian said calmly, "Alright, let me see what kind of strength the disciples of your Sheng Yun Sect possess."
This one sentence revealed everyone's identity. The ruffian youth was shocked that Chen Tian knew their origin. It was strange that someone in this world knew about their Sheng Yun Sect. However, the ruffian youth narrowed his eyes and didn't take it seriously, thinking the other party might have heard of Sheng Yun Sect somewhere, which was not surprising.
"Boy, disciple of Sheng Yun Sect, Sheng Kuang, please enlighten me!"
In the battles of all the heavens and myriad worlds, courtesy came first. In the Sacred God Realm, etiquette was indispensable, and respect was shown before a fight. Chen Tian made a corresponding gesture and said, "Chen Tian, please enlighten me."
Chen Tian and Sheng Kuang looked at each other. Suddenly, both their auras erupted, forming a gale that swept through the surrounding environment. Trees were shredded into fragments, the ground spewed lava, and lightning flashed in the sky. Chen Tian's aura was more formidable than Sheng Kuang's. Sheng Kuang looked at Chen Tian, who seemed like a changed person, and an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
This thought told him that he had to go all out against this opponent, or his fate would be miserable.
Chen Tian said, "I'll let you have one move. You go first."
Chen Tian directly unleashed two percent of his first-life body's power. Two percent of his power was not something Sheng Kuang could resist. Chen Tian's true opponent was the ruffian youth. The ruffian youth felt Chen Tian's aura, which was completely different from before. Could this kid be a hidden old monster, playing the pig to eat the tiger?
Or was the other party also interested in this young man? The ruffian youth desperately wanted to leave, but thinking of the power of the Demon Mother's Body, greed made him lose his ability to think.
Sheng Kuang, hearing Chen Tian's words, mustered his courage and said, "Boy, stop trying to scare me. I don't believe you have the strength to defeat me. Die!"
Sheng Kuang thought Chen Tian was bluffing, only appearing fierce in aura. Who knew if Chen Tian was just an empty threat?
Sheng Kuang decisively attacked, his first move a killing blow. His palms collided, all his strength concentrated in his hands. He struck out repeatedly with his palms, gathering the lightning in the sky onto his palms. Dark clouds swirled as his palms shot out, carrying dark clouds and thunder, heading straight for Chen Tian. Chen Tian stood still, unmoving.
Everyone thought Chen Tian was indeed an empty threat. This move was Sheng Kuang's most powerful technique, called the Meteor Destruction Palm. With one palm strike, thunder roared, dark clouds gathered, and the palm became enormous.
Chen Tian stood in place and even closed his eyes. His palms struck Chen Tian, and an explosion sounded. Sheng Kuang laughed heartily at the center of the explosion, "Boy, it seems you really are just a paper tiger, trying to bluff me. No way!"
Before he could rejoice for long, Chen Tian's voice rang out from the center of the explosion, "Is that all? One strike and you're done. You'll take my move now."
Chen Tian's eyes flashed fiercely. With this glare, Sheng Kuang was completely immobilized, unable to move. His hands and feet lost control, and Sheng Kuang couldn't even speak.
Sheng Kuang's heart filled with terror. What kind of power was this? What was happening with such terrifying power?
A sense of death emanated from within him. Chen Tian sighed, and Sheng Kuang's figure directly turned into countless starlight fragments, drifting into the sky.
The disciples of Sheng Yun Sect watched all this, seeing their comrade die just from a single glance from Chen Tian.
How terrifying! Who was this person?
"Boy, you're seeking death!"
The ruffian youth roared in fury. Killing Sheng Kuang alone would have been manageable, but Chen Tian had also erased Sheng Kuang's origin. It was known that erasing the origin meant complete annihilation. As long as a shred of origin remained, there was a chance for reincarnation. Now, Chen Tian had erased the origin as well.
This guy was truly ruthless, but such actions enraged Xi Yun. Xi Yun thought about returning to the sect. Sheng Kuang was the disciple of an elder, and that elder was an inner sect elder of the sect. If Sheng Kuang died here, that elder would not let him off.
Only by killing Chen Tian and bringing his head back could he appease the elder. Chen Tian said indifferently, "Those who kill must be prepared to be killed. You don't think only you can kill and people can't kill you, do you?"
"A huge joke. In my eyes, enemies must be completely annihilated."
Chen Tian stated resolutely. Xi Yun stepped forward and said, "Boy, let me fight you. Judging by your appearance, this must be your full strength. I will kill you."
"You can try!"
Chen Tian and Xi Yun glared at each other. Xi Yun knew that among the Sheng Yun Sect disciples present, he was the only one who could contend with Chen Tian. Xi Yun sensed from Chen Tian's previous glance that Chen Tian was in his full state, at most at the same realm as himself. If they were to fight, it would be a six-four split, with him having six. Xi Yun had never taken Chen Tian seriously, and it was still the same now.
He felt Chen Tian only had some skill, just some skill. Xi Yun and Chen Tian unleashed their auras, with Xi Yun having the upper hand. Chen Tian's aura surged forward and then retreated, indicating that Chen Tian had not fully mastered his power.
Having power was both good and bad. The good thing was that with power, you could protect those you wanted to protect. The bad thing was that you had to fully control that power. If this immense power were to get out of control, it would lead to unimaginable consequences.
Chen Tian was currently in the process of slowly mastering his two percent power. Chen Tian had recovered the memories of his first life, but that didn't mean Chen Tian was the same person as his first life. Chen Tian had not yet understood the power of his original body, so Chen Tian needed to gain mastery.
Chen Tian attacked first, not wanting to give his opponent the advantage. Chen Tian stepped forward, the ground cracking, and shockwaves of air kicked up dust from his feet. In an instant, he appeared before Xi Yun, throwing punches. Xi Yun watched Chen Tian's attack and his fists closed in. Xi Yun extended his palms, and his palms collided with Chen Tian's fists. Xi Yun tightly gripped Chen Tian's fists. Chen Tian spun his body, and Xi Yun quickly let go. Xi Yun kicked out his left leg. Chen Tian, after spinning his body, had just stabilized himself when Xi Yun's left leg lunged. Chen Tian reacted quickly and dodged with a flash, the kick missing.
Suddenly, Xi Yun appeared before Chen Tian. Chen Tian looked at Xi Yun, who seemed to know Chen Tian would appear there and was already waiting. Xi Yun struck out with his palms. Chen Tian crossed his arms, and the power of the Five Elements formed armguards. His palms struck Chen Tian's armguards, and Chen Tian retreated rapidly.
He forcefully stabilized himself. Xi Yun looked at the unharmed Chen Tian and said indifferently, "Not bad. Even disciples of the same realm in Sheng Yun Sect cannot easily resist this move. Boy, I have to admit you have some strength, but you are still not as good as me."
"Who is stronger will be known after the fight."
Chen Tian's fighting spirit soared, his aura rising steadily. Xi Yun was the same. The two evenly matched individuals were now fully ignited in their desire to fight.
Chen Tian's arm trembled slightly. The force of the previous palms had left his arm numb, indicating Xi Yun was a formidable opponent.
Chen Tian had not yet understood this power, and currently had no chance of winning. Chen Tian calculated many scenarios, and the final result was that after understanding the power, he would have a hundred percent chance of winning. Currently, it was only a six-four split, with Chen Tian having only four.
Based on the previous battle, Chen Tian's understanding of his power had improved significantly. Chen Tian was confident he could defeat Xi Yun.
Xi Yun's body trembled, and his figure turned into countless afterimages, attacking Chen Tian. Chen Tian's eyes glowed with silver light. Under these eyes, Xi Yun's true form was revealed, and all other afterimages vanished.
Xi Yun's attack approached, and Chen Tian met palm with palm.
Rumble!
Shockwaves spread, the surrounding ground turned into fragments, trees vanished, and everyone was blown away.
