The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3341 - 3336: Killing the Four-direction Ghost Kings_1

Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
Observers marveled at Yang Chen's prowess, recognizing he had surpassed the limits of the Sky-separating Realm and outshone even Fu Xuanbing's achievements. In the intense battle, Yang Chen's Crimson Ox Soul initially dominated the Four-direction Ghost King by devouring his ghost Qi techniques, but the Ghost King countered with his resentful thorny whip Life-bound Divine Artifact, forcing Yang Chen to recall the soul. Sensing vulnerability, the Ghost King directed other Ghost Kings to assault Yue Xingzhenren, aiming to coerce Yang Chen into exposing weaknesses. Defiant, Yang Chen summoned Xingtong, the Insect Queen, who unleashed a horde of Insect Race warriors, including Sky-separating Realm elites, to counter the threat and shift the battle's momentum.

It was widely known that an Insect Mother in the Heaven-separated Realm could match even the peak of that realm, clashing with over a dozen Heaven-separated Realm Experts at once.

Furthermore, this particular Insect Mother at the Heaven-separated Realm clearly stood out as no average being.

Bao Lu observed the entire spectacle too.

Consequently, Bao Lu found herself puzzled about the extent of Yang Chen's hidden cards, while her curiosity surged intensely as well. Precisely what unfolded in the clash between Yang Chen and Xingtong?

How could Xingtong suddenly switch sides to aid Yang Chen now?

...

Xingtong dove into the fray without delay, and with her initial strike, over a dozen Insect Race fighters at the Heaven-separated Realm, along with numerous others from lower realms in the Insect Race, swiftly turned the chaotic battle around.

The Four-direction Ghost Kings unleashed their fury in a blaze, their eyes bulging wide with seething wrath: "Good kid, you have quite a few tricks, but I will take your life!"

One among the Four-direction Ghost Kings advanced boldly, seizing command of the Thorny Whip and lashing it straight at Yang Chen.

Xingtong observed this unfold and sank into contemplation. By now, her command over the Heaven-separated Realm insects ensured total mastery of the field.

At the same time, she found herself utterly captivated by the duel pitting Yang Chen against the Four-direction Ghost Kings.

Ever since her arrival, her gaze had locked onto the battle between Yang Chen and the Four-direction Ghost Kings. That focused scrutiny left her profoundly stunned by Yang Chen's techniques. Soon after, memories of her own bout with Yang Chen flooded back.

The outcome of that encounter for her had been utter and total defeat!

An azure pattern spread out, transforming Yang Chen into a figure of deathly might. In a flash, he propelled himself forward with swift steps. Right there, more than a dozen of her Insect Race Heaven-separated Realm subordinates met their end.

Had she not been of the Insect Race, with her core form able to endlessly spawn new insects, she would have suffered absolute annihilation in that fight.

In fact, she would have met her doom!

Yet, Yang Chen spared her life then, opting instead to forge a pact: she would assist him with a single strike.

One had to admit Yang Chen possessed remarkable foresight, having anticipated the events on the Ice and Fire Star where her aid would prove essential against her.

Back then, with her existence hanging by a thread, she had no choice but to accept Yang Chen's terms without hesitation.

Truth be told, initially, thoughts of vengeance against Yang Chen lingered in her mind. Yet these days, she increasingly sensed that unraveling Yang Chen's enigmas held far greater allure than any payback.

Take the current moment, for instance...

A warrior at the Heaven-separated Realm tangling with a Ghost King of the Heaven-appointed Realm in such a way—could anything be more astonishingly improbable?

...

Meanwhile, Yang Chen grappled fiercely with the Four-direction Ghost Kings, his position growing dire by the second, his face hardening with tension. True, he had taunted and jeered moments ago, yet confronting the all-out assault from the Four-direction Ghost Kings left him feeling rather outmatched.

In a heartbeat, Yang Chen had no recourse but to call forth the Slaughter God Spear.

"Hahaha, I’m out again. However... it seems like our enemy is quite powerful this time." The Slaughter God Spear boomed with laughter upon manifesting, only to cut off sharply at the sight of the Four-direction Ghost Kings.

"Go!"

Yang Chen drove the spear forward, unleashing every ounce of his power.

The Four-direction Ghost Kings proved no pushovers. In response to Yang Chen's thrust, the whip morphed into a serpent, its thorns brimming with malice, coiling aggressively toward Yang Chen.

Following the clash, the Slaughter God Spear cried out, "It hurts so much. What an evil power in this whip."

"Be careful, there’s a lot of resentment on this whip, and you, as an Artifact Spirit, are too ostentatious. Naturally, you will be entangled and heavily injured by its resentment. Stay at the bottom of the divine weapon and don’t reveal yourself easily," Yang Chen cautioned.

"What should I do when I use that move later?" The Slaughter God Spear inquired.

At the sound of the Slaughter God Spear's words, Yang Chen went quiet.

This dilemma occupied his thoughts as well. His most potent spear technique demanded much from the Slaughter God Spear, and the Artifact Spirit couldn't simply hide away forever.

Considered this way, pitting his Emperor Divine Tool against this Heaven-appointed Realm foe wielding another Emperor Divine Tool made true equality a tough proposition.

"There isn’t a good opportunity yet!" Yang Chen's face turned grave: "Stay hidden for now, and wait for my order!"

"Alright!" The Slaughter God Spear complied readily with Yang Chen's command.

Just then, the Four-direction Ghost King noted how Yang Chen's Slaughter God Spear struck his Thorny Whip and came off worse, prompting his chuckles to escalate. He refused to entertain any notion of Yang Chen mounting a comeback.

After all, for a Heaven-separated Realm cultivator like Yang Chen to endure this far was already nothing short of miraculous!

Seizing the advantage now, the Four-direction Ghost King wielded the Thorny Whip, unleashing a barrage of tactics that encircled Yang Chen completely, intent on slaying him right there.

Yang Chen refused to yield passively to fate. As the Thorny Whip pursued him relentlessly in every direction, he dodged and vaulted, whirling his spear in defense. Realizing victory eluded him, he vanished in a flicker of movement.

Spotting Yang Chen's retreat, the Four-direction Ghost King pursued without mercy, hot on his trail.

"Hahaha, kid, I want to see where you can run!" The Four-direction Ghost King mocked.

With formations sealing off the entire zone, where exactly could Yang Chen flee?

Yang Chen offered no retort, maintaining his composure as he fled, all while directing the Slaughter God Spear, and declared, "Alright, it’s about time!"

"No problem!" The Slaughter God Spear responded with a mischievous cackle, like it was gearing up for mischief.

Their partnership flowed without a hitch, and the instant Yang Chen spoke, a brilliant glow erupted from the Slaughter God Spear. Next, an odd energy welled up within the weapon, bursting out in a torrent.

The Four-direction Ghost King, eagerly giving chase, never imagined Yang Chen retained the power for a counter-thrust from behind.

As the spear lanced out, the Four-direction Ghost King sensed the peril and shouted, "Not good!"

Right then, beams of light saturated the heavens, swallowing the whole vista and blanketing every bit of the area occupied by the Four-direction Ghost King and Yang Chen.

Spectators witnessing the event were clueless about its nature. A few even mistook it for a technique of the Four-direction Ghost King.

Beneath that brilliance, Yang Chen might well have been utterly destroyed.

Yet Yue Xingzhenren, Xingtong, and several others with keen insights fixed their stares on the firmament, brows furrowed in uncertainty and reflection.

They had perceived it all too distinctly, though doubts lingered on whether their eyes deceived them.

The glow from that spear originated with Yang Chen, not the Four-direction Ghost King.

What's more, the Four-direction Ghost King's presence was steadily fading.

With the light slowly receding now, the Four-direction Ghost King's form plummeted from above.

And the clear triumph after the glow's retreat belonged to Yang Chen, who lingered aloft, gripping the Slaughter God Spear, erect in the midst of resplendent golden hues.
