Eternal Heart

At this moment, Cui Yan’er, Yan Lie, and Chen Yu stood together on the seventy-third step, but they felt that many more eyes were focused on Chen Yu; they were still just the green leaves against his backdrop.

"Amazing, this child is actually standing on the same step as the geniuses of the two great King clans!"

"It’s truly admirable that an unknown person has managed to come this far!"

The Yang Family members also stared wide-eyed, astonished that Chen Yu had made it to this stage.

At the same time, they were quite worried, as Chen Yu already had a history with the two great King clans, and his current actions had only further incensed Cui Yan’er and Yan Lie.

At this moment, Cui Ming had already made a move against Chen Yu, and there were still twelve Cui Clan geniuses below.

Under these circumstances, could Chen Yu escape unscathed?

"Humph, Chen Yu, from now on, just keep looking up at my back, Yan Lie!" Yan Lie snorted coldly, stepping up to the seventy-fourth step.

Cui Yan’er also acted simultaneously.

To break this situation, they could only continue to climb upwards, surpassing Chen Yu!

Cui Yan’er and Yan Lie almost simultaneously stepped onto the seventy-fourth step, their figures slightly wavered.

Reaching this step, they both felt it was extremely difficult to move, and had to give their all to keep climbing upwards.

"Sister Yan’er, go ahead without worry; once I deal with this guy, I’ll join you!" Cui Ming said calmly, his words filled with confidence.

"Okay!" Cui Yan’er responded.

Though Chen Yu was radiant at the moment, she believed that Cui Ming would definitely win!

"You Cui clan are too shameless, coming at me one by one, is this a rotational battle?" Chen Yu couldn’t help but mock.

The Cui clan were the first to strike at him, Chen Yu blocked the attack, defeated the opponent, and immediately, another person came up.

Now, Cui Ming had also made a move against Chen Yu.

"Humph, just a few moves, it won’t even consume much of your True Yuan, how could it be considered a rotational battle!" Unexpectedly, Cui Ming shamelessly refused to admit this.

As long as one stood on the Heavenly Ascension Peak, they would have to use True Yuan to resist the oppressive power of heaven and earth; fighting in this condition was more strenuous and dangerous; a rotational battle was more effective too.

Boom!

Cui Ming didn’t say much more; he immediately launched an attack at Chen Yu, a golden bone claw, with fierce power and tyranny, aimed to crush Chen Yu’s head.

Chen Yu fearlessly waved the Demon Flood Dragon Sword, slashing out a surge of black Sword Qi.

Thud-crack!

Cui Ming’s claw collided, his fingers fiercely clutching, actually smashing Chen Yu’s Sword Qi.

However, Chen Yu’s Demon Flood Dragon Sword possessed explosive properties; the exploding Sword Qi maximally mitigated the power of Cui Ming’s claw.

Pong!

Ultimately, when this claw landed on Chen Yu, he blocked it with raw force.

"Let’s see how many of my claws you can block!" Cui Ming’s gaze suddenly sharpened, and the usually mild-looking man exuded an overbearing aura.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the void, a series of golden bone claws flew towards Chen Yu, like blooming golden flowers, dazzling yet containing powerful force and lethal intent.

"This man’s strength is almost no different from Hanshan’s." Chen Yu thought inwardly, unafraid, actively meeting the attack with the Demon Flood Dragon Sword.

At the same time, he activated the third demon pattern; a pitch-black, fierce demon armor quickly appeared on his body.

All the explosive turbulence and bone claws that came his way were blocked by the Demon Scale Armor.

The battle on the Heavenly Ascension Ladder was often decided by defensive measures; those with stronger defensive power were more likely to survive.

But just then, Chen Yu saw Cui Ming activate the treasure armor within his body, a golden film appearing on his surface.

The opponent also possessed a Spiritual Artifact with excellent defensive power. If Chen Yu had anything in reserve, it would take a long time to determine the victor.

Roaring winds!

Chen Yu’s body stirred up a storm of black winds, revolving continuously around him.

This tyrannically frenzied demon wind grew stronger, sharp as a blade!

Demon Wind Sword Domain was formed!

Suddenly, the area within several meters was affected.

If not for the great oppressive force of the Heavenly Ascension Ladder suppressing it, Chen Yu’s Demon Wind Sword Domain could cover nearly a hundred meters.

"Damn it, Chen Yu, what are you doing?" On the Black Demon Valley’s side, many from the You Clan were affected by the Demon Wind Sword Domain, facing even greater obstacles to advance.

Chen Yu didn’t bother with that; he had no intention of injuring those participating in the Black Demon Valley’s assessment, so he wasn’t breaking any rules.

Boom!

Chen Yu slashed at Cui Ming with his sword; inside the Demon Wind Sword Domain, this strike was even more powerful.

Cui Ming’s expression darkened slightly, not expecting Chen Yu to have this move.

"Bone-breaking Finger!" Cui Ming waved his arms, his claws twisting and flying in the air, golden bone fingers shooting out.

The golden bone fingers twisted in the air, the joints bursting with a series of explosive sounds.

Boom crash pong!

In the pitch-black Demon Wind Sword Domain, explosions were continuous.

"Damn!" contentPane Cui Ming felt the pressure.

He stood on the sixty-ninth step, enduring tremendous heavenly and earthly oppression, and now also facing the attack and suppression from the Demon Wind Sword Domain.

As Chen Yu in the sword domain felt relatively easier, his attack power also enhanced.

With this give and take, Cui Ming was very likely to lose!

"Golden Bone-breaking Claw!" Cui Ming roared, his two claws coming forth simultaneously.

Bang, crack, bang, crack!

Suddenly, two huge golden bone claws appeared on either side of Cui Ming, the five claws slowly moving, emitting a series of explosive sounds.

"This is Big Brother Cui Ming’s ’Golden Bone-breaking Claw’. Even someone in the Half-Step Sky Sea Realm, if careless, could be disfigured by Brother Cui Ming’s claw!"

"That kid is really impressive, pushing Brother Cui Ming to this extent. But since Brother Cui Ming has used the Golden Bone-breaking Claw, this duel is basically over."

"What a powerful strike!"

Chen Yu’s gaze sharpened, showing no fear.

He charged his heart, amplifying his power, and swiftly swung the Demon Flood Dragon Sword.

Demon Light Sword Spin!

Boom boom boom!

In an instant, Chen Yu slashed out more than a dozen pitch-black sword rays, each one incredibly powerful. At this moment, all the sword rays combined to form a pitch-black blade vortex. Amplified by the Demon Wind Sword Domain, it spun and struck out!

Boom bang!

The Demon Light Sword Spin clashed with the Golden Bone-breaking Claw, exploding continuously. A series of fierce storms spread out.

Chen Yu and Cui Ming were both defending.

Below them, members of the Cui Clan and the You Clan did the same, some even being knocked back a step or two by the shockwaves!

Boom!

With a loud noise, Cui Ming’s Golden Bone-breaking Claws completely dissipated, but two rays of sword light from Chen Yu’s Demon Light Sword Spin remained, slashing towards Cui Ming in an instant.

Pang!

The first sword light landed on a pale golden membrane, causing it to dent and crack slightly.

At that moment, the second sword ray arrived nearby. The pale golden membrane burst open with a "pang", and the residual sword rays struck Cui Ming.

Black light exploded from Cui Ming’s chest, injuring him, sending his figure tumbling backward.

At the same time, the massive pressure from the Heavenly Ascension Ladder bore down.

Thud thud thud!

Cui Ming’s body fell and tumbled down the Heavenly Ascension Ladder, rolling over three times until he stopped on the forty-second step!

Cui Ming was defeated!

Below Heavenly Ascension Peak, uproar erupted!

"Damn it, this kid defeated Brother Cui Ming!"

"Brothers, let’s gang up and blast this kid off the Heavenly Ascension Ladder!"

After Cui Ming’s defeat, the remaining prodigies from the Cui Clan felt utterly disgraced and extremely angry.

But they also knew that apart from Cui Yan’er, none of them could match Chen Yu alone, so at this moment, all the remaining Cui Clan members, discarding any pride as prodigies, prepared to mob Chen Yu!

"Shameless, so many from the Cui Clan ganging up on one person!"

"Ah, such a situation should be stopped!"

There was a buzz of discussion below.

Yang Yuhuan was also worried for Chen Yu but could do nothing.

Chen Yu’s gaze turned fierce, his heart even more annoyed.

Since the Cui Clan members were so despicable as to plan to mob him, Chen Yu no longer cared about retaining any decorum.

Strike first!

Yangming Sword Point!

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two blood-red Sword Qi beams shot out.

On the Heavenly Ascension Ladder, ordinary attacks were hard to stop, not to mention the Yangming Sword Point.

Splurt! Splurt!

Two peak Late Guiyuan Realm members from the Cui Clan were penetrated in their legs by the Yangming Sword Point. Blood immediately gushed out, unstoppable.

On the Heavenly Ascension Ladder, with their legs suddenly wounded, how could they remain stable!

Thud thud thud!

Those two immediately rolled down.

With this, only ten people were left on that side!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Chen Yu wielded the Demon Flood Dragon Sword, launching a fierce offensive.

At this moment, each of his strikes was comparable to those of Cui Ming. The Late Guiyuan Realm simply couldn’t defend against them!

Instantly, two members of the Late Guiyuan Realm were blasted off the Heavenly Ascension Peak by Chen Yu, while a peak Late Guiyuan Realm member managed to block Chen Yu’s strike.

Meanwhile, the attacks from the other members of the Cui Clan descended, their might horrifying.

But among these, there was only one Half-step Sky Sea, the rest being Late Guiyuan Realm, which was not fearsome.

Chen Yu’s defensive power made the attacks of the Late Guiyuan Realm feel like mere tickling.

Even at the peak of the Late Guiyuan Realm, he was completely unafraid!

"Demon Scale Shield!"

Chen Yu activated the second Demon pattern, quickly forming a Demon Scale Shield around his body.

Then, he activated the High-Grade Inner Armor he wore, with an ancient cyan protective light appearing around him.

Demon Scale Shield, Demon Scale Armor, High-Grade Inner Armor... Chen Yu had all his defenses up!

With these layers of defense, Chen Yu fearlessly launched a vicious offensive against the prodigies of the Cui Clan!

They had thought that Chen Yu, faced with their mobbing, would either be scared witless or blasted off in one round.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yu was so fierce—daring to counterattack!

Boom bang!

After one round of attacks, Chen Yu’s ancient protective light and Demon Scale Shield were shattered, leaving the Demon Scale Armor somewhat damaged, but Chen Yu was otherwise unharmed.

On the other side, three more Late Guiyuan Realm members from the Cui Clan were blasted off the Heavenly Ascension Peak by Chen Yu!

Thus, only five people were left on the Cui Clan’s side!

This outcome dumbfounded the Cui Clan.

"Get down, all of you!"

Chen Yu, enraged, launched another attack on the people from the Cui Clan.

The Demon Wind Sword Domain was still active, and his sword moves grew even stronger!

Shortly after, these five were also successively blasted down by Chen Yu.

It was not until then that Chen Yu’s Demon Scale Armor was destroyed, leaving some injuries on his bodyunteers
