The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3312 - 3307: Can We Surpass_1

As soon as they spotted him, the puppets rushed at Yang Chen, clutching all sorts of weapons.

These puppets dashed forward with the speed of lightning, closing in on Yang Chen's position in mere moments.

Yet Yang Chen merely lifted his hand casually and let it drop.

Right then, the puppets that had been moving like bolts of lightning froze in place abruptly, uncertain of what force had struck them or what obstacle they had hit.

...

Meanwhile, beyond the Ice River Secret Realm, Mu Fei spoke with a sigh of resignation, "Junior Sister, let this guy be. We're the hosts here, and he's our guest. Since he's already submitted the Jiyu Essence, we shouldn't embarrass ourselves. Plus, given his Heaven-separated Realm cultivation, his achievements can't be too shabby."

"How impressive could they possibly be? I know every big shot past the seventh level of the Heaven-separated Realm. Never heard of him at all. Does he actually believe he's some hotshot?" Fairy Yun Xiu scoffed.

Mu Fei shook his head in exasperation, "Fine, calm down. With Senior Sister Qing Wan done, we can head back and report to Master now."

Yun Xiu Fairy stomped her foot, her face twisted in a pout, "No way, I want to watch which Palace this brat makes it to. So full of himself, huh? If he clears the Third Palace, I'll write my name upside down."

With those words, she fixed her gaze intently on the Ice River Secret Realm.

One quick look, and Yun Xiu Fairy's eyes narrowed sharply, "What in the world? How on earth did this fellow get through the First Palace?"

She recalled that Yang Chen hadn't spent much time inside the Ice River Secret Realm.

But in a sudden realization, the man had already stepped into the Second Palace? Wait, no—it was the Third Palace now.

In that brief lapse of attention, Yang Chen streaked through like an undetectable flash of lightning, landing straight in the Third Palace?

"That's it; I'm heading out." Fairy Qing Wan, ever the icy type, had endured the bickering between the two and couldn't depart earlier. Now that they fell silent, she stated coolly—failing the Sixth Palace had hit her hard.

Still, as her statement hung in the air, the usual begs for her to stay never came, leaving Fairy Qing Wan a bit taken aback.

Turning her head to check, a flicker of shock appeared in Fairy Qing Wan's gaze.

For she could plainly see Yang Chen stationed in the Third Palace. This pace... this time...

...

Right then, inside the Third Palace, Yang Chen activated his personal domain once more.

Once the domain unfolded, the nearby space and time fell fully under his command. In this space, the puppets turned fragile like captives, ripe for easy takedown.

Yang Chen held back nothing and struck decisively. As the domain's pressure mounted for that split second, it utterly demolished every puppet in the Third Palace.

Crackling...

The entire group of puppets broke apart into shards, flying off in every direction, resembling heaps of thrown-away scraps.

This display stunned the trio watching from outside. Yang Chen's rush through the Third Palace proved astonishingly swift too.

Next, within the domain, Yang Chen moved like a ghost or a haunting dream, stepping forward and vanishing into thin air.

Reappearing, he glided in as a feather-light silhouette, already positioned in the Fourth Palace.

This Fourth Palace mirrored the earlier ones, holding over a dozen puppets. Yet unlike the prior three Palaces, these dozen puppets displayed far superior design. Above all, one among them donned armor, setting it starkly apart from the rest.

This one was known as the 'Puppet General.'

The Qi emanating from the Puppet General dwarfed that of the other puppets entirely.

In a flash, multiple puppets lunged ahead, their velocity, raw power, and bursting strength delivering a truly alarming impact.

However!

The instant they crossed into the domain, all their might got blocked, utterly dismantled, and reduced to nothing.

What lingered were their now sluggish forms, which Yang Chen tore through without effort.

With sharp crackling sounds, the more than a dozen puppets, just like those in the Third Palace, crumbled into pieces across the floor.

Only the Puppet General resisted, its forged facial features twisting in strain, worry, and dread.

Spotting this, Yang Chen blurred and faded away. Upon his return, the Puppet General's armor cracked open, and its frame, like the others, collapsed into a mound of debris.

The puppets couldn't be fully eradicated, merely bashed into scattered components. This stemmed from the core housed inside each puppet's frame. Yang Chen remained unaware of the core's creation method, but it brimmed with energy from Dao Ancestor powerhouses.

Such energy sufficed to let these puppets reform and fuel the Secret Realm's perpetual loop.

Hence, smashing them apart worked fine, without needing total annihilation. Should they get wholly destroyed, Fang Xuan Dao Ancestor might not forgive him lightly.

Thus, after conquering the Fourth Palace, Yang Chen claimed an additional 3,000 Jiyu Essence.

Yet this 3,000 Jiyu Essence failed to spark even a hint of joy in Yang Chen.

"The Second Palace gave me 1,000 Jiyu Essence, the Fourth Palace 3,000, totaling 4,000. Yeah, I just about evened out." Yang Chen shook his head.

That word "just about" carried an underlying twist, as he well knew.

He'd paid 5,000 to enter, recovering only 4,000 so far. "Just about" fit the situation perfectly.

Yang Chen pushed the thought aside. To truly balance the scales, clearing the Sixth Palace remained essential.

With that in mind, onward... to the Sixth Palace!

Yang Chen paused scarcely after the Fourth Palace before pressing on to the Fifth Palace!

By now, Yun Xiu Fairy, Qing Wan Fairy, and the other one stared fixedly, their gazes glued to the action without pause.

Yun Xiu Fairy fell utterly silent, her earlier haughtiness vanished. She simply observed Yang Chen's feats in the Ice River Secret Realm with steady poise.

Occasionally, her pulse raced, as though struck by profound astonishment.

Mu Fei and Qing Wan Fairy held a touch more steadiness than Yun Xiu Fairy, yet witnessing Yang Chen's near-horrifying prowess stirred unease in them too.

For Yang Chen handled the Fifth Palace with eerie ease, bulldozing through it in a dominant sweep.

Following that came the Sixth Palace!

The three shared the identical thought in unison.

Could Yang Chen tackle the Sixth Palace with the same casual flair as the Fifth?

"No chance. Only top-tier experts beyond the Heaven-separated Realm's peak can conquer the Sixth Palace. That Puppet General was forged by Master to match the Heaven-separated Realm's utmost limit. How could this unknown pull it off? Even Senior Sister fell short." Yun Xiu Fairy reassured herself inwardly.

At that point, Yang Chen had fully entered the Sixth Palace.
