The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3262 - 3257: King Ming Cheng’s Choice_1

Under this powerful effect, the Ghost King powerhouses found themselves in dire straits while clashing with the human cultivators.

Suddenly, multiple Ghost Kings lagged far behind because of the Death Omen Scripture, with one appearing ready to crumble at any second.

Yang Chen felt no shock at all about this turn of events.

The Death Omen Scripture possessed the power to sway and alter the entire battlefield dynamics!

This marked just the initial phase of the Death Omen Scripture, far from its peak intensity. As it progressed deeper, its might grew ever more astonishing. Upon hitting its peak, the Death Omen Scripture's strength would skyrocket dramatically.

Countless human cultivators let out cries of admiration, amazed that Yang Chen managed to aid them despite battling Huan Ye Ming Wang.

The chanting of the Death Omen Scripture pressed on, gaining immense force with every step forward.

This sight enraged Huan Ye Ming Wang, who evaded the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm from afar, his veins throbbing visibly in fury.

Every one of his followers suffered under the influence.

Realizing he needed to halt Yang Chen, Huan Ye Ming Wang burned with anger.

Yet right as he resolved to act, his form trembled. As a spirit entity, he faced severe suppression from Yang Chen’s Death Omen Scripture. At this peak moment of the Death Omen Scripture, Huan Ye Ming Wang proved unable to withstand its overwhelming surge.

In the following instant, Yang Chen’s Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm struck and seized Huan Ye Ming Wang with brutal force.

When Huan Ye Ming Wang finally snapped back to awareness, he discovered himself firmly gripped by Yang Chen’s Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm.

Still, as a formidable King of Hell powerhouse, Huan Ye Ming Wang rapidly recovered after the initial strike from Yang Chen’s Death Omen Scripture wounded him. A burst of golden radiance then swept over his frame, as if he aimed to flee via a hidden technique.

Yang Chen, however, had taken every measure to prevent such an escape.

Did he truly believe he could pull off the same move again?

Even without knowing the exact nature of that hidden technique, Yang Chen stood fully ready.

"Space-time seal, activate!"

A space-time barrier instantly enveloped Huan Ye Ming Wang.

Previously, a lone space-time seal had shattered under the foe’s mysterious method. This round, though, Yang Chen first pinned him down with the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm before deploying the space-time seal!

The space-time barrier locked him down solidly, rendering Huan Ye Ming Wang immobile inside the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm, frozen like a stone figure.

Right then, Yang Chen clamped down hard on the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm, radiating the clear intent to slay Huan Ye Ming Wang.

Yet unexpectedly, after that rigid pose held for merely a single breath, Huan Ye Ming Wang broke free through some mysterious method.

During his breakout, fierce gales whipped up around Huan Ye Ming Wang, tearing open a breach right in the heart of the Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm.

"Yang Chen, you think you can defeat me, no..."

Huan Ye Ming Wang bellowed, but sadly, before his words ended, a soaring sword stabbed straight through his skull, severing his form.

Huan Ye Ming Wang’s eyes bulged in disbelief. He believed he’d slipped away, unaware that his very breakout sealed his doom.

Yang Chen anticipated this perfectly, with the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword lingering nearby, poised to strike for quite some time.

He’d permitted Huan Ye Ming Wang’s escape once before and refused to let it happen again. Regardless of the mysterious technique employed, Yang Chen denied him any moment to recover. At last, Huan Ye Ming Wang perished entirely and without question.

Yang Chen extended his hand to seize, drawing Huan Ye Ming Wang’s storage bag and his top-tier Emperor Divine Artifact Hammer into his grasp.

This Emperor Divine Artifact Hammer truly qualified as a prized item, yet it held no value for him. He planned to store it away for his collection of treasures to consume later.

Regarding the items inside Huan Ye Ming Wang’s storage bag, nothing else stood out as exceptional; they suited Netherworld Ghosts and offered him scant benefit.

The standout prize remained the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag.

The Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag had truly rested in Huan Ye Ming Wang’s possession, and now it lay securely recovered.

"What a splendid triumph." Yang Chen grasped the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag and broke into a grin.

Meanwhile, the skirmish below neared its conclusion. Despite the humans’ shortage in numbers, the elite forces from Heavenly Melody Mountain proved formidable opponents, their combat skills compensating fully for the disparity.

Moreover, Broken River, Fairy Moon Fu, and their allies boasted impressive prowess, handling multiple foes with ease and even gaining the advantage.

Thanks to Yang Chen’s Death Omen Scripture aiding in swiftly dispatching and wiping out the adversaries, victory flowed naturally.

A handful of Ghost King powerhouses attempted flight upon realizing the danger, but alas, Broken River and his comrades spotted them promptly and slaughtered every last one.

"Hahaha, we’ve wiped them all out completely. Brother Yang Chen, this marks a huge win for us." Broken River boomed with laughter.

The assembled powerhouses brimmed with joy—who could resist delight at such a resounding success?

"Brother Yang Chen, did you secure the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag?" Mu Tianhe inquired.

"I did; it belonged to Huan Ye Ming Wang, and here it is for you all to witness." With a casual wave, Yang Chen displayed the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag.

Upon confirming the safe return of the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag, the group’s happiness surged even higher.

Yet Yang Chen’s expression grew stern as he gazed afar with arms folded behind him, "Daoist friends of Grand Abyss Palace, you’ve lurked in the shadows long enough—time to show yourselves."

"Hmm, folks from Grand Abyss Palace?"

Broken River and the rest turned their attention that way, detecting the auras rippling from afar.

King Ming Cheng realized hiding was futile, let out a sigh, and advanced.

"King Ming Cheng, what’s the meaning of this?" Broken River and his companions adopted a grave tone, pondering the implications of King Ming Cheng’s presence.

Initially, King Ming Cheng harbored schemes, including designs on seizing the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag, but witnessing Yang Chen’s clash with Huan Ye Ming Wang in hiding forced him to rethink everything.

He observed plainly how Yang Chen’s abilities sufficed to overpower and eliminate Huan Ye Ming Wang.

Such a feat lay beyond his reach; he lacked even the assurance to endure as long as Huan Ye Ming Wang had against Yang Chen.

Assessing the situation now, it seemed clear Yang Chen wasn’t at full strength, yet he surely retained hidden cards. Slaying Ming Cheng would pose him no challenge.

After weighing his options, King Ming Cheng chose prudence. His faction aligned with Fu Tiandi, leaving no cause to antagonize this monstrous talent over the Spirit Separation Ancestor’s branch.

"Nothing much, merely traveling through. With the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag in your hands, I offer my congratulations. It appears pointless for us from Grand Abyss Palace to linger, so we’ll depart ahead." King Ming Cheng stated.

The Grand Abyss Palace members stood stunned, baffled by King Ming Cheng’s words, which clashed with their prior instructions.

Still, with King Ming Cheng issuing the order, they dared not object and trailed after him in retreat.
