The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3148 - 3143: Returning to the Divine Night Sect_1

This location held immense value for Mo Wanchou as well.

Even though he no longer held the memories of his past incarnation, his personality and innate talents remained the same; in fact, he had become even more overbearing and arrogant than in his previous life.

Still, such traits were irrelevant as long as he could guarantee his breakthrough into the Heavenly Extreme Realm and reclaim his former glory. For any major power, this was the primary factor to weigh.

Furthermore, as a reincarnation, there was a strong possibility that Mo Wanchou would surpass his previous limits upon returning to his peak state.

This potential made the prodigies listed on the Daluo Celestial Stele appear mediocre by comparison.

"Commence the battle."

The subordinates at the Heaven-separated Realm were not particularly concerned. They knew that regardless of the outcome, Mo Wanchou was there to support them if complications arose.

A cold sneer played on Mo Wanqiu’s lips; in his mind, Yang Chen’s death was already a settled matter. The reasoning was straightforward: Yang Chen had actually managed to force him into a retreat.

He was a reincarnated being of the Heavenly Extreme Realm. During his time in the Enlightenment Stage, the Grand Abyss Palace had spared no expense in nurturing him to comprehend the most formidable Dao Intent. Despite this, he had suffered a minor setback during his exchange with Yang Chen. This proved that Yang Chen’s Dao Intent was in no way inferior to his own.

While he was certain he could defeat Yang Chen in a true duel, he found it unnecessary. He preferred the satisfaction of watching his retainers crush Yang Chen, proving to the youth that certain fates were predestined.

It appeared that talents like Yang Chen needed to be eliminated in their infancy, lest they grow into significant threats later on.

Upon their return, they could simply claim that Yang Chen refused to submit to the Grand Abyss Palace and posed a potential danger. The sect leadership would undoubtedly help suppress the matter for him.

With these schemes in mind, Mo Wanqiu spoke up, "Yang Chen, why struggle like this? You are throwing your life away for the sake of a woman. If you repent this instant and kowtow to me a few times, I might find it in my heart to let you live."

Despite being encircled by numerous Heaven-separated Realm experts, Yang Chen remained composed, showing no hint of alarm.

"Mo Wanchou, do you truly believe you have the power to detain me here?" Yang Chen asked, his hands clasped calmly behind his back.

Simultaneously, he noted that the Heaven-separated Realm martial artists from the Divine Night Sect had already made their escape to a safe distance.

He gave a soft shake of his head. He hadn't counted on those people to assist him and had fully expected them to flee.

Mo Wanchou erupted into mocking laughter. "Yang Chen, who do you think you are? Escape? What methods could you possibly have to get away?"

Yang Chen replied, "Mo Wanchou, if I decide to depart, not even ten of you could obstruct me. I expected you to challenge me yourself, but it seems you prefer cowering behind your lackeys. This so-called Heavenly Extreme Realm reincarnation is nothing special after all."

Yang Chen shook his head slightly.

These words weren't intended as mere mockery; they were his honest assessment.

How could someone as prideful as Mo Wanchou endure such insults? Just as he opened his mouth to retort, Yang Chen suddenly reached out and grabbed Murong Qi.

Murong Qi did not panic. Sensing Yang Chen’s intentions, she abandoned all resistance.

In a heartbeat, the two of them vanished like a streak of light, departing the scene instantly.

"What?"

The Heaven-separated Realm experts who had surrounded Yang Chen were stunned, their faces turning pale with shock. "Where... where did they go?"

Mo Wanchou’s rage flared like a thunderclap. "You incompetent fools! You couldn't even keep a single Realmless brat under watch?"

"Master, it seems Yang Chen employed some extraordinary spacetime techniques. We were unaware he possessed such skills and... we were caught off guard..." The Heaven-separated Realm cultivators were completely bewildered.

Had they exerted their full strength to block his escape from the start, it might have been possible for experts of the Grand Abyss Palace to intercept him.

But now that he had vanished, how were they supposed to give chase?

The Heaven-separated Realm experts projected their divine sense in every direction, but Yang Chen had disappeared without a trace. They had no way to track him.

"Young Master Mo, let it go for the moment. Yang Chen is quite gifted, and since he has already fled, there is no use in pursuing him," an Elder said as he stepped out from the shadows. His form gradually solidified, revealing a cultivation at the Heaven-appointed Realm.

"Elder Han, surely you are capable of catching him?" Mo Wanchou asked, his voice low and frustrated.

Elder Han shook his head. "The boy’s escape was too swift. Even if I chased him, it would be a grueling trek. Wind King Star sits at the very edge of the Grand Abyss Palace’s influence. Beyond this lies the domain of the Divine Night Sect, where I cannot move freely."

"Curse him!" Mo Wanchou ground his teeth in anger. "Hmph, fine. I will let the brat run for now. If our paths cross again, I will make him pay dearly."

...

As Yang Chen continued his flight, he saw no signs of pursuit and slowly began to relax.

With his current Peak of No-Boundary cultivation, utilizing the spacetime Dao Intent allowed him to travel at incredible speeds. Crucially, his enemies had been careless, having no inkling that he mastered spacetime Dao Intent. They never imagined he could break their perimeter.

He had successfully exploited their negligence to make a clean getaway.

Now that he had crossed back into the territory of the Divine Night Sect, Yang Chen was certain the pursuers from the Grand Abyss Palace would not be able to reach him.

"Young Master Yang Chen, I am deeply sorry for dragging you into this trouble. If it weren't for my involvement, you wouldn't have been put in such danger," Murong Qi said, her face filled with guilt as they traveled together.

Yang Chen brushed it off, saying, "Think nothing of it. If the Grand Abyss Palace is truly run by people like that, then it isn't a place worth joining anyway."

In the past, Yang Chen had held a deep respect for the Grand Abyss Palace. However, after joining the Divine Night Sect, he realized that the image of the Grand Abyss Palace maintaining the peace of the Ten Thousand Realms was largely a facade.

While the Divine Night Sect paid a heavy price in the shadows, the hypocritical Grand Abyss Palace claimed all the credit. It was no wonder the members of the Divine Night Sect harbored such intense resentment toward them; their behavior was truly shameless.

He had previously taken the Divine Night Sect's claims with a grain of salt, but after this encounter, his disappointment with the Grand Abyss Palace was profound.

Perhaps the entire organization wasn't corrupt and Mo Wanchou was simply an outlier, but compared to the Divine Night Sect—which was solely dedicated to battling alien races—the Grand Abyss Palace fell far short.

"My main concern now is for you, Miss Murong. You represent the hope of your star realm, and I had promised to help you enter the Grand Abyss Palace. I didn't foresee things turning out this way," Yang Chen remarked.

Murong Qi offered a small laugh. "I feel the same as you, Young Master Yang Chen. If that is the true nature of the Grand Abyss Palace, I have no desire to be part of it."

"Haha, if that is how you feel, I can introduce you to another power that is every bit as formidable as the Grand Abyss Palace," Yang Chen said with a slight smile.

Murong Qi blinked in surprise. "There is another force equal to the Grand Abyss Palace?"

Yang Chen chuckled, "You will see for yourself once we arrive."

He then guided Murong Qi forward, their journey made swift by the Spirit Leaf Flying Boat.

Upon their eventual return to the Divine Night Sect, the disciples and Elders—who had grown somewhat accustomed to Yang Chen—granted them easy entry.

Shortly after, Yang Chen sought out Ji Yueshuang.

Ji Yueshuang beamed with relief at the sight of him. "Young Master Yang Chen, I am so relieved you returned safely. You truly had me worried to death."
