Chapter 1984: The Hidden Threat Chapter 1984: The Hidden Threat Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation He laughed heartily. Ye Chen was finally going to die. When he returned to the Holy Dragon Family, he would be able to brag about this. Ye Chen’s vision was gradually blurring. Even if he had the experts in the Samsara Graveyard transfer energy to him, it was impossible to win. His body could no longer withstand it. Lei Wu slowly walked up to Ye Chen and punched him. Puchi! Blood spurted out of Ye Chen’s mouth. He could no longer control his body and fell to the ground. When Lei Wu saw this scene, the corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. The current Ye Chen did not have any combat strength at all. He could do whatever he wanted. He held the sword in his hand and prepared to stab it into Ye Chen’s body. He wanted to avoid any more trouble and decided to just get rid of Ye Chen. However, just as his sharp sword was about to pierce in, a dragon’s roar suddenly rang out, which resounded through the heavens and earth. A Nine-clawed Golden Dragon appeared around Ye Chen’s body. The Nine-clawed Golden Dragon protected Ye Chen’s body and roared at Lei Wu. Furthermore, the aura of the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon was healing Ye Chen’s internal injuries. When Lei Wu saw this scene, his expression changed completely. The Nine-clawed Golden Dragon was actually protecting Ye Chen! Even the cultivators on the square formation did not know what was going on. In fact, every time Ye Chen killed an expert, the dragon energy would strengthen the dragon soul in his body. After killing so many experts, the dragon soul in Ye Chen’s body had reached a terrifying level, so it was not too surprising that it would protect him. This was the benefit of being selected early on in the competition. Had Lei Wu killed as many experts as Ye Chen did in the competition, he would have enjoyed this same effect. Thus, although it had seemed disadvantageous to Ye Chen to have to fight so early on in the competition, there were hidden benefits. Still, Lei Wu did not believe that the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon could protect Ye Chen forever. He kept striking with his sword again and again, but the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon blocked each blow. When Lei Wu saw this scene, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. It was too f*cking infuriating! He was only one step away from killing Ye Chen, but he could not deal the final blow. If not for the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon, Ye Chen would have been a dead man by now. However, with each strike, the color of the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon would dim a little, which also gave Lei Wu hope. Boom! Boom! Boom! The Nine-clawed Golden Dragon’s figure gradually dimmed. Then, just as it was about to shatter, Ye Chen opened his eyes. The moment he did, he saw Lei Wu trembling with anger and immediately thrust the Heavens-Splitting Divine Spear! Before Lei Wu could react, the spear had already pierced his chest. A stream of blood spurted out, and Lei Wu took three steps back. His eyes were fixed on Ye Chen. Ye Chen stood up from the arena. Although his injuries had not fully recovered, he was in much better shape than before. A violent aura erupted from his body. “Get lost!” Ye Chen growled. His three nomological powers began to fuse, and his divine blood essences and Gengjin energy erupted. “Heaven-cleaving Sword!” The entire arena was filled with sword essence as a giant sword beam descended, causing space to crack as it whistled past. Boom! After the thunderous explosion, Lei Wu’s entire figure flew backward. The speed of the sword beam was too fast, and after suffering the earlier injury, he was unable to react in time. Lei Wu slowly stood up, and there was a hideous wound on his chest. Seeing this, Ye Chen’s enemies all had a bad premonition about what was about to happen. Lei Wu had failed to kill Ye Chen just now, and now that Ye Chen was partially recovered, it was even more difficult to do so. Was Ye Chen really going to turn the tables? This felt so surreal! It was already a miracle that Ye Chen had lasted as long as he did. Could he actually kill Lei Wu? They did not know what was going to happen next, so they could only continue watching. Lei Wu let out a roar. His eyes had already turned bloodshot due to how infuriated he was. He wished that he could tear Ye Chen apart with his bare hands! Lei Wu’s figure suddenly charged toward Ye Chen, swinging his sword viciously. A powerful sword beam came hurtling toward him in an instant. Ye Chen’s expression did not change. Behind him, the phantoms of the Qilin and White Tiger appeared. The two divine beasts roared, causing the entire river to tremble. The Qilin phantom rushed over to meet the sword beam, and a loud explosion ensued. Then, the White Tiger unleashed its sharp claws as it pounced toward Lei Wu. The Immortal Divine Body erupted with golden light, and Ye Chen raised the Blood Demon Sword and a sword beam that seemed that it had the power to split open the sky shot out. Wherever the sword beam passed, everything around it was destroyed. Boom! The sword beam landed on Lei Wu’s body. Puchi! Lei Wu spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground. World’s providence poured into Ye Chen’s body! When Ye Chen saw this, he grinned. His body could not take it anymore. Fortunately, he had managed to win at the very last moment. All of this was thanks to the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon. If not for the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon protecting him earlier, he would have perished. The onlookers gasped. Ye Chen had really won! Ye Chen’s enemies could not believe what had happened, and their expressions were abnormally ugly. How did Lei Wu fail? They had witnessed Ye Chen grow stronger step by step. They could still suppress him now, but what about in the future? They did not dare to continue imagining it. If Ye Chen was given time, no expert would be able to stand against him in the future. “The winner will be crowned! The Universe Death Domain will close in three days!” The cold, mechanical voice rang out again. The Cosmic Divine Armor flew over to Ye Chen. The Cosmic Divine Armor surged into Ye Chen’s body and appeared on the surface beside him. The moment Ye Chen put it on, he was like a god of war, standing tall above the long river. “You’d better hand over the Cosmic Divine Armor, the dragon soul, and the world’s providence!” At this moment, a hoarse voice rang out.
