Two Realms: I Will Become the Immortal Emperor

Chapter 176: Chapter 169: Reincarnation of a Great Power, Possession by a Powerful Expert?

Ah Qi, personally trained by his master, had been at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer for years. And yet, he fell to a single palm strike!

Rong Shisan’s heart clenched.

And most importantly, the aura from Chen Che’s palm strike just now was clearly only that of the Qi Refining Ninth Layer!

”He’s not at Foundation Establishment. How could he possibly have such strength?”

”Ah Qi!”

Seeing his Junior Brother die under that palm, Rong Ying’s face twisted with pain and fury.

”I’ll kill you!”

Rong Ying let out a roar, flipped his right hand, and threw out a blue-and-white porcelain bowl. In the blink of an eye, the bowl grew to be dozens of feet in size, like a small hill. Then, as he flipped his right hand, it came crashing down on Chen Che with a loud CLANG.

”Kill!”

Rong Ying’s face was set with determination. His long hair whipped around and his sleeves billowed, a clear sign he was pushing his True Essence to its absolute limit.

CRACKLE! POP!

Even while the great bowl was still in mid-air, a surging pressure slammed down. Amidst terrifying cracking sounds, all trees, grass, and stones within a radius of hundreds of feet were instantly turned to dust.

The very ground sank several inches.

But Chen Che, at the center of the pressure, seemed as unaffected as if a gentle breeze had brushed past him.

”How is that possible?”

Just as he watched in astonishment, as the great bowl descended, Chen Che casually raised a hand to strike it.

’A Cultivator, using his own body to fight a Magical Artifact?’

Rong Ying found it utterly absurd. Although the bowl was only a Tier One Middle Grade artifact, it wasn’t something a normal Cultivator’s body could withstand.

But the thought had barely formed when he saw Chen Che’s casual palm strike land on the porcelain bowl.

CRACK!

A crisp sound echoed.

The porcelain bowl trembled slightly before shattering with the sound, turning into a cloud of fine powder. However, the force of the palm strike was far from spent. The monstrous Strong Force, now mixed with the powdered ceramic, surged forward like a flash flood that had been building for three days and three nights.

With a tremendous BOOM, dozens of trees so thick it would take several people to encircle them were instantly blasted into splinters.

In an instant, this furious tide was right in front of him!

’Not good!’

At the last moment, Rong Ying slammed his palms together, gathering all his True Essence to block the blow. But in the end, he was like a dry twig in a torrent, instantly crushed to dust without a single trace left behind.

The Strong Force rolled past him and surged directly into the dense forest. A series of thunderous rumbles followed, carving a wide path through the woods.

The path was at least thirty to forty feet wide, stretching from Chen Che’s feet to over a thousand feet away.

THUD.

Watching the torrent of power that had passed just inches from his body, Rong Shisan’s knees gave out, and he collapsed to the ground.

Just now, if Chen Che’s palm had shifted by two inches, he would have been blasted to dust as well. The man clearly wasn’t a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, yet his strength was terrifying. His two senior brothers, both far stronger than him, couldn’t even withstand a single blow. What chance did he ever have?

”Where is your master?”

Chen Che slowly withdrew his right hand. His gaze shifted to Rong Shisan as he casually took out the Jade Token and toyed with it.

”Hasn’t he been using this Jade Token to track my location? Why hasn’t he shown up, even after I’ve killed two of you? Or did he just send the three of you here to die?”

Originally, Chen Che had planned to wait for the Fire Pattern Cultivator to appear before making a move. But when the man failed to show, he grew worried it was a trick and decided to strike first to gain the upper hand.

”Ah?”

Rong Shisan froze, then quickly cried out, ”Tributor Chen, this is all a misunderstanding...”

”Speak. What’s going on?”

Chen Che’s eyes narrowed.

How could Rong Shisan dare to hide anything now? He stammered meekly, ”Actually... Master told us to follow you...”

”He had the three of us surround you, a plan to force you into a desperate situation where you had no choice but to crush the Jade Token he gave you. Then, he would suddenly appear and save you. That way, you would be eternally grateful to him.
