Martial Master

In this glance, it was utterly plain, devoid of killing intent or any other emotions.

Yet, it was this very gaze that caused the hearts of the Grand Elder and others to tighten. At this moment, they even felt unable to breathe, as if an invisible hand had seized their hearts, tightly squeezing, preventing them from beating.

What a terrifying gaze this was.

"Willpower oppression!"

Ji Wufa's expression darkened as he slowly uttered a term.

Naturally, he wasn't as anxious as the Grand Elder and others, but he too was shaken by this willpower. A Nineth Level Martial God, truly mastering the subtle use of the rules, could control a realm of heaven and earth with just a raise of their hand. Therefore, every move made by a Nineth Level Martial God carried the effect of the will of heaven and earth; as for other martial artists, no matter how strong, they could never achieve this.

Some top-tier Martial God experts, having reached an unprecedented understanding of the rules, could be said to become the rule at certain moments—the rule and they were one.

This would also create a phenomenon where every action of the opponent would carry the will of the rules, producing a kind of willpower oppression.

And Qin Chen's earlier glance had such an effect, startling even a late-stage Martial God giant like the Grand Elder.

"What a terrifying gaze! This child has just broken through to Nineth Level Martial God, yet possesses such oppressive will. If he is not removed, it will be difficult to sleep peacefully."

Ji Wufa felt it was unbelievable. It should be noted that to release willpower oppression with just a glance requires those who have reached the pinnacle of understanding the rules. Even the Grand Elder, a late-stage Martial God giant, couldn't achieve this.

But Qin Chen, a peak early-stage Martial God, managed to do it, as if he could determine life and death with a single look.

This sensation terrified him.

"Kill!"

He roared, descending recklessly from the sky.

"Heh!"

Under the astonished gazes of Ji Ruyue and others, Qin Chen finally moved. He chuckled lightly, raising the mysterious rusty sword in his hand, and then lightly slashed down.

Puff!

Black sword qi surged explosively, and the blood sea that Ji Wufa had unleashed instantly erupted, a violent force raising the blood sea into towering waves. A single sword blocked Ji Wufa's attack, and Qin Chen opened a vertical eye in his forehead, directly unleashing a soul attack toward Ji Wufa, a force of soul annihilation. This soul annihilation power was dozens of times stronger than before Qin Chen's breakthrough, appearing like an intangible sharp blade that brutally pierced into Ji Wufa's mind.

At the same time, the Heavenly Thunder Sword in Qin Chen's left hand moved, lightning erupted, transforming into a sea of thunder, instantly blocking the attacks from the Grand Elder and others. Within the sea of thunder, sword qi shot out, piercing toward the Grand Elder and others.

As for the attacks from other mid-stage peak Martial Gods, Qin Chen didn’t evade at all, instead, he withstood them with his physical body.

"Ah!"

Bang! Bang!

Puff!

The first to suffer a heavy blow was Ji Wufa. Faced with Qin Chen's soul annihilation secret technique, his soul sea exploded, a gap blasted open, and the pain from deep within his soul made him cry out in agony.

The whole person appeared to be insane.

The Grand Elder and the decayed Demon Lord and other late-stage Martial Gods felt themselves caught in a terrifying lightning storm, being blasted away, their bodies tingling, blood spurting from their mouths.

As for the attacks from those mid-stage Martial Gods hitting Qin Chen, aside from producing a muffled sound, they did nothing at all.

"Chen... are you okay?"

A flash of white light appeared; it was Ji Ruyue, who had also passed through the lightning tribulation. Her demeanor had become increasingly transcendent, approaching mid-stage peak, giving off an extremely terrifying aura.

Beside Ji Ruyue was Ji Hongchen, equally terrifying, directly reaching the mid-stage peak realm, extraordinary and out of this world.
