Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 110: Sikong Sheng, the 'King of Force' who doubts his life
Ye Chen's sword carries the elegance between mountains and rivers, and is also extremely sharp and fierce!

"This is impossible!" At this moment, Sikong Sheng's face was full of shock.

This was the first time he encountered something beyond his control since the start of the Hidden Dragon Ranking competition!
No matter whether it was the terrifying state of mind displayed by Ye Chen or the 70% sword intent of that terrifying state of mind, it shocked him immensely!
You know, 70% of the sword intent has already entered the upper realm of sword intent. Even among those swordsmen in the Star Realm, few can reach this realm!
boom!
At this critical moment, Sikong Sheng's body shook slightly, and an extremely terrifying true energy instantly rushed up into the sky, sweeping in all directions.

Even outside Sikong Sheng's body, there were tiny sparkles of stars visible to the naked eye, like diamonds, crystal clear and extremely condensed!

This is the half-step true essence that he had already begun to refine!

With the blessing of Half-Step True Essence, Sikong Sheng's attack and defense capabilities have been significantly enhanced. Coupled with the many high-level skills he has practiced, they are even enough for him to fight against true Star Realm powerhouses.

"Get out of my way!"

After the half-step true energy burst out, Sikong Sheng's momentum was strengthened again. Then he punched out with a powerful punch, which directly carried tremendous power and hit the sword light slashed by Ye Chen fiercely.

The sound of metal clashing rang out. The dazzling sword light and the terrifying fist force collided fiercely, and for a moment they were evenly matched.

The aftermath of the fight between the two spread in all directions and instantly penetrated the blue light curtain surrounding the arena.

If there weren't several referees at the Star Realm working together to take charge of the defense, I'm afraid that some of the young geniuses closest to the arena would have been seriously injured!
"Seventy percent sword intent?"

"Half-step true essence?"

Looking at the two figures on the arena, the expressions of most of the spectators in Qianlong Ancient City were completely frozen.

"What is going on? The strength of Sikong Sheng and Ye Chen is too exaggerated. The aftermath of their fight alone has penetrated the light curtain of the arena!"

"I didn't expect that both of them had been conserving their strength before. One hid his sword intent to 60%, and the other directly diluted his half-step true essence into true qi to fight. This is simply unbelievable!"

"Too strong! The strength of the two of them is far beyond that of the younger generation!"

At this moment, everyone was shocked by the strength of Ye Chen and Sikong Sheng.

In the audience, a Star Realm swordsman who had once competed with Ye Chen for the Sword-Shaped Grass at the auction had a hint of surprise on his face.

After all, when Ye Chen competed with him for the sword-shaped grass, his sword intent was only at 50% level. He actually raised it to 70% level in such a short time. This was even more incredible for him who had already raised his sword intent to 90%.

"This Ye Chen is definitely a rare genius in the sword art that only appears once in a hundred years!"

The Star Realm swordsman couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I wonder if he can defeat Sikong Sheng who has already possessed half a step of true essence?"

"How can this be?"

Sikong Ba, the leader of Xuankong Mountain and also Sikong Sheng's grandfather, couldn't help but reveal a solemn look on his face.

He had long known that Sikong Sheng possessed half a step of true energy, and he had never regarded Ye Chen and others as Sikong Sheng's opponents before, even after Ye Chen and others defeated Yan Chihuo.

But what he didn't expect was that Ye Chen actually had such a powerful trump card hidden!
Of course, if Ye Chen's trump card is only 70% of the sword intent, Sikong Sheng still has a great chance of defeating the opponent. However, what Sikong Ba is most worried about is that Xiao Yan, Pang Bo and others also have other trump cards in their hands.

Although he still has great confidence in Sikong Sheng, if Xiao Yan and the others still have trump cards, they will definitely think of countermeasures after seeing Sikong Sheng's strength. At that time, it will naturally be more troublesome for Sikong Sheng to defeat everyone!
In the referee's booth, chief referee Luo Jiacheng and several other Star Realm referees all gasped.

One of the referees couldn't help but sigh: "Originally, I thought Sikong Sheng would be able to win for sure, but now it seems that the outcome of this battle is still uncertain!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect that we would be wrong again this time!"

Another referee also sighed: "I thought Ye Chen's strength was the weakest among the remaining few, but I didn't expect that he actually had such a hidden card!"

Another referee who was quite concerned about Ye Chen said, "In fact, it's more than that! Ye Chen is less than 18 years old, which is much younger than most of the young generation present! At such a young age, he has raised his swordsmanship to 70% of the realm. He is definitely a swordsmanship prodigy that has not appeared in our Nanzhuo area for hundreds of years!"

"Young age is both Ye Chen's advantage and his disadvantage! With only 70% of his sword power, he is no match for Sikong Sheng! It's just that we didn't save such a wonderful battle for the last one, which was indeed a mistake!"

"Yes, after this battle, the subsequent games will probably be meaningless!"

……

And on the arena.

Seventy percent of Ye Chen's sword intent broke out of his body, and the pressure brought to him by Sikong Sheng's half-step true essence was like a breeze blowing on his face!
"very good!"

Sikong Sheng finally put aside his pride and looked at Ye Chen straight in the eye: "I thought this would be a one-sided battle, but I didn't expect you to have such a hidden card!"

"Now you are qualified for me to take you seriously. Of course, it's just seriousness!" When he said this, Sikong Sheng's aura suddenly retracted, and he became completely restrained.

If he was an erupting volcano before, he is now a towering and massive mountain.

Facing all this, Ye Chen's face remained calm: "I'll say it again, if you don't use all your strength, you will definitely not be able to withstand my three swords!"

After hearing what Ye Chen said, Sikong Sheng was no longer as disdainful as before, but began to wonder in his heart whether Ye Chen had any other cards to play.

However, he was not too afraid in his heart. After all, with the blessing of the half-step true essence, his current strength was indeed terrifying: "Ye Chen, take my first punch, and I will win the world with my fist!"

Rumble!
Sikong Sheng threw a punch, and the entire arena shook violently, and then cracks suddenly appeared on the arena.

At the same time, the space around Ye Chen's body collapsed instantly, like a cage, trying to trap Ye Chen inside.

Clang!
At this moment, the Star Mark Sword in Ye Chen's hand was unsheathed again, and the 70% sword intent that permeated the surrounding void once again revealed its terrifying and invincible edge after having attached itself to an object!
"Immortal Sky Shattering Cloud!"

Ye Chen swung his sword, and a half-meter-long brilliant sword light suddenly shot out, instantly cutting through Sikong Sheng's terrifying fist power, and then continued to rush towards Sikong Sheng.

puff!

Seeing the sword light coming, Sikong Sheng's expression froze again. Although he had dodged in time, a trace of sword energy still passed through his left arm, bringing up a trace of blood.

Originally, Sikong Sheng did not care about this minor injury, but Ye Chen's sword energy was extremely strange. Although it was only a trace, it was difficult to destroy. He could only rely on his own powerful true energy to resist!

Ye Chen looked at Sikong Sheng who was injured by him, and couldn't help feeling speechless.

He has reminded the other party many times, but the other party is still so arrogant. Isn't this his own fault?

Of course, he reminded the other party out loud because he wanted to feel some pressure from Sikong Sheng and see if he could improve his strength a little bit.

After all, after Sikong Sheng, he still has to deal with the even more difficult people like Xiao Yan!
"Sikong Sheng, you are careless again!"

Ye Chen immediately said in a cold voice: "I don't know if you still have a chance to take my third sword!"

"Humph! From now on, you won't have another chance!"

Sikong Sheng, who was completely enraged by Ye Chen's attack, had a cold look in his eyes: "Ye Chen, I didn't expect that your strength would be so strong, and even your sword intent is so strange! Next, I will use my ultimate killer move, but I can't control this move now. Don't blame me if you can't take it!"

"Are you finally going to reveal your trump card? I can finally put some pressure on you!"

A thought flashed through Ye Chen's mind, and then he said immediately: "That depends on whether you have the ability!"

"Since you want to die, then I will make it happen for you!"

Sikong Sheng immediately shouted: "The punch breaks the sky!"

This punch was the killing move of the Cang Tian Ba Quan. After being performed by Sikong Sheng who had mastered half a step of true energy, he immediately roared towards Ye Chen with a devastating attitude.

On the other side, Ye Chen had already prepared for the third sword!

He was seen holding the Star Mark Sword in both hands, his mind completely immersed in his own sword intent, secretly accumulating a terrifying power!

When Sikong Sheng's fist power exploded, Ye Chen immediately swung out his fatal sword: "Destroy the heart!"

Rumble!
The terrifying sword energy collided with the fist force in an instant, and the defensive light shield around the arena was instantly broken. The violent aftermath swept out, causing many geniuses near the arena to change color.

Fortunately, they had already retreated some distance beforehand, and with the support of the referee at the Star Realm, they were not affected too much.

On the opposite side of Ye Chen, the terrifying fist force swung by Sikong Sheng was directly pierced through by the sword light unleashed by Ye Chen. Then the remaining force of the sword light directly and fiercely hit the half-step protective true essence outside the body of Sikong Sheng who had no time to dodge.

Wow!

The half-step protective true energy was torn apart in an instant, and Sikong Sheng spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then the whole person flew backwards, obviously seriously injured!
……

Click!

In the audience, Xuankong Mountain Sect Master Sikong Ba instantly crushed the armrest of the chair. He originally thought that Sikong Sheng, with his powerful half-step true essence, would easily take the first place on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, but he didn't expect that Ye Chen would appear!
The faces of the elders of Xuankong Mountain standing nearby all showed disbelief.

At this moment, Shen Tujue, the core elder of Xuankong Mountain, suddenly said in a voice transmission: "Sect Master, Sheng'er still has hope!"

"After all, Ye Chen is only a disciple of a ninth-grade sect. As long as we secretly coerce and lure him to lose the previous battle, after Sheng'er defeats the others, we will have another chance to fight him. Then we can take back the dragon vein energy!"

After hearing this, Sikong Ba's heart moved, but this was after all within the extremely sacred Qianlong Ancient City. Even he did not dare to act recklessly, so he was still hesitant in his heart.

On the martial arts arena, after Ye Chen defeated Sikong Sheng, the dragon-shaped shadow outside his body seemed to sense something and quickly pounced on Sikong Sheng automatically.

After swallowing a portion of Sikong Sheng's dragon vein energy, the dragon-shaped shadow on Ye Chen's body instantly exceeded nine zhang, reaching ninety and a half zhang!

And among all the geniuses, he was the first to make his dragon-shaped phantom reach a height of nine feet, and instantly ranked first!

After being swallowed, Sikong Sheng's dragon-shaped phantom quickly retreated back to eighty-nine feet!
After seeing this scene, the people watching the fight were completely stunned.

Who could have imagined that Sikong Sheng, who had already refined half of the true essence, would lose to Ye Chen!
Sikong Sheng's original expression was very lost, but suddenly his grandfather Sikong Ba's voice sounded in his ears.

"Sheng'er, temporary success or failure doesn't mean anything. With your strength, you just need to defeat the others next time, and I will be able to give you a chance to challenge Ye Chen again!"

"He is just a disciple of a ninth-grade sect. Naturally, he dare not offend Xuankong Mountain. When the time comes, whether it is the first place on the Hidden Dragon List or the number one dragon vein energy, they will all belong to you and Xuankong Mountain!"

After listening to Sikong Ba's message, Sikong Sheng felt much better.

He let out a long sigh, and quickly calmed down his inner anxiety and unwillingness, and his eyes became firm again.

"Ye Chen, you are indeed very strong!"

Sikong Sheng looked at Ye Chen again and said seriously: "Next time I fight you, I will definitely not give you any chances!"

After hearing this, Ye Chen ignored the other party and jumped directly off the competition arena.

Upon seeing this, the Star Realm referees continued to arrange the next match.

Although they all believed that the ranking of this competition had been determined, they still had to fulfill their responsibilities.

While other people were competing, Ye Chen also received a message from the great elder of Xuankong Mountain, Shentu Jue.

In the voice transmission, Shen Tu Jue either threatened or bribed, and even promised to give Ye Chen a chance to join Xuankong Mountain.

Unfortunately, with the support of group leader Lu Qingshan, Ye Chen had no fear at all and simply and decisively rejected the other party.

Sikong Sheng, who was unaware of all this, was still dreaming of defeating Xiao Yan and others and challenging Ye Chen again. But what he didn't know was that what was coming next was just the beginning of his nightmare!
……

In the 68th round, Sikong Sheng met Pangbo.

Sikong Sheng, who had lost to Ye Chen before but fully recovered with the help of a large amount of spiritual medicine in Xuankong Mountain, had obviously changed a little. He no longer carelessly put his hands behind his back to meet the enemy, but had prepared low-grade boxing gloves early, and the half-step true energy in his body was no longer diluted.

"Pombo, are you ready for my wrath?"

Sikong Sheng looked at Ye Chen's companion in front of him. His aura had begun to rise steadily, as if there would be no end.

At this time, the disappointment of being defeated by Ye Chen had not yet dissipated, so he naturally would not be polite when meeting Ye Chen's friends.

puff!

After hearing what Sikong Sheng said, Pang Bo, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Sikong Sheng, you've forgotten that Ye Chen slapped you in the face just now! You think you can beat me before the fight even starts?"

As soon as he finished speaking, endless energy and blood power instantly exploded in Pangbo's body, and even the void around him seemed to be burning.

"what?"

"This terrifying Qi and blood power is probably already greater than those of the sixth-level monster overlords!"

At this moment, Sikong Sheng was completely stunned, and the expression on his face was as if he had eaten shit!
How could he have imagined that after Ye Chen, there would appear another person named Pang Bo who could compete with him!

Although he could easily kill a sixth-level monster overlord in seconds with his strength, those monster overlords could not use any martial arts, let alone the strange boxing techniques that Pangbo had displayed in the previous battle.

Afterwards, Pangbo and Sikong Sheng quickly fought each other.

Although Sikong Sheng learned from his previous lessons and displayed all his strength right from the start, even using many killing moves, he was still defeated by Pang Bo who used the "Nine Slashes of the Demon Emperor" in the end!

After seeing this scene, whether it was the people from Xuankong Mountain, the other warriors watching the battle, or the talented people of the younger generation on the list, they all seemed to have witnessed something incredible.

They simply could not imagine that Sikong Sheng, who possessed half a step of true energy, would be defeated successively by Ye Chen and Pang Bo!
What none of them expected was that this was just the beginning!

……

In the 69th round, Sikong Sheng met Han Li, who was mainly defensive.

Originally Sikong Sheng thought that as he possessed half a step of true energy, he could easily defeat Han Li's defense once he used his killing move, but he did not expect that Han Li could actually withstand his strongest killing move.

Later, he thought that with the strong half-step true energy, he could fight until Han Li was exhausted, but he didn't expect that he would be the first to be exhausted!

Just like that, Sikong Sheng was defeated by Han Li again, and at the same time, the dragon-shaped shadow behind him shrank to eighty-seven feet again.

……

In the 70th round of the competition, Sikong Sheng met Xiao Yan, the person he was most afraid of.

When the battle started, Sikong Sheng was still very confident, because he thought that the two-colored fire lotus that Xiao Yan had displayed before was already his ultimate move.

But what was surprising was that this time Xiao Yan still used the two-colored fire lotus, but its power was more than ten times more terrifying than the previous one.

Under that terrifying power, Sikong Sheng had no hope of winning at all.

So he was finally defeated by Xiao Yan again, and the dragon-shaped shadow outside his body was only eight feet and six centimeters long!

……

In the last round of the competition, Sikong Sheng met Meng Huan, who had always been relatively low-key.

Although Meng Huan defeated Yan Chihuo and others, he finally admitted defeat when he met Xiao Yan and others, so Sikong Sheng finally felt that he could win the game.

But what he didn't expect was that Meng Huan, who looked the most low-key, seemed to be the most terrifying one among Xiao Yan's group!
Clearly, Meng Huan did not use any killing moves, but he had no ability to resist at all in the hands of the opponent, just like a child encountering a two-meter-tall strong man who had learned martial arts.

In the end, after being ravaged by Meng Huan, he was defeated again by the opponent, and the dragon-shaped shadow behind him had shrunk to eighty-five feet!

After experiencing this final battle, Sikong Sheng even began to doubt his life!

After all, five people appeared in succession and were able to defeat him successfully!
One or two might just be coincidences, but what about five in a row?

"Have I always been a waste?"

After being defeated by Meng Huan, Sikong Sheng was completely stunned, and his entire expression became dazed, as if he had just realized the real world today.

"Are all the opponents I met before the weakest of the weak?"

"I have actually always lived in my own world. My strength is actually very average?"

At this moment, Sikong Sheng was completely confused and even began to deny himself!
In fact, in a sense, Sikong Sheng and Mo Yan, the eldest disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect, belong to the same kind of people.

Simply put, I can't afford to lose!

The only difference between the two is that Sikong Sheng's talent is stronger and his strength is more terrifying!

In previous battles, Sikong Sheng was able to crush his opponents one by one, so his shortcomings would naturally not be exposed.

But even if he was defeated by Ye Chen alone in the original book, he would find Liuyun Sect to challenge Ye Chen after breaking through to the Star Realm, because he knew that it was absolutely impossible for Ye Chen to break through to the Star Realm in such a short time!
And now that Sikong Sheng was defeated one after another by the chat crowd, his own shortcomings were naturally fully exposed.

If he can wake up in time, he will naturally be able to achieve something in the future.

But if he doesn't wake up, his achievements may not be as good as Li Daoxuan, Bing Ling and others in this genius battle!
