Fortunately, it was only a matter of time. However, his Level-2 Undying Body talent was not bad either. At the very least, his combat strength had increased more than his swordsmanship talent.

At the same time, Chen Yiming could vaguely sense that his previous combat strength was about 10 to 20 times that of the second stage of the warrior realm, while it was now 30 to 60 times stronger.

The reason was that his body had received another all-round enhancement, and the strength of his internal force had also increased.

In terms of numbers, it was about three times stronger than before.

The martial arts talent panel disappeared.

Chen Yiming clenched his right hand into a fist, and a long sword formed from the strength-based internal force appeared in the air.

The sword was engraved with complicated patterns and emitted a brown glow. There was a heavy aura flowing inside, just like a real sword.

This was condensed from the complete concept diagram of the meteorite. Its maximum length was still only 100 meters, but its strength was three to five times that of before.

This meant that when fighting someone at the level of Li Daoyi, the sect master of the Blue Cloud Sword Sect, his opponent would not be able to block Chen Yiming’s strongest move with just a casual strike.

The sword extended and finally turned into a 100-meter-long sword.

The ground in the valley below the huge sword was crushed by an invisible force, creating a ravine that was 100 meters long.

This was caused by a special field force. It was somewhat similar to gravity and could increase the power of the strength-based internal force. It was a special effect obtained from the complete concept diagram of the meteorite.

Chen Yiming casually dispersed the huge sword and sensed that his internal force had returned to its full value. He smiled and said, “Not only is its lethality higher, but the internal force consumed for this finishing move can be restored in just the time needed for me to take a single breath.”

At this point, he felt that upgrading to the Level-2 Undying Body talent was more suitable than upgrading to the Level-3 swordsmanship talent.

The huge increase in his current combat strength gave him the confidence to deal with the two sect masters of the Kunshan Sect and the Blue Cloud Sword Sect. Furthermore, he could obtain the resources needed for his cultivation more easily.

For example, he had originally not planned to participate in the fight for the core of the willow tree king in the middle of the island. However, the situation was different now. He had the ability to get a share of the loot.

…

Just as Chen Yiming was about to head to the center of the island, “Where are you going?!”

A thunderous voice sounded from the horizon, carrying an incomparably heavy and vast meaning behind it. Before he arrived, the voice of the sect master of the Kunshan Sect, Lu Zhenshan, had already spread throughout the entire Mist Island.

Most of the people on the island leaped to a high point near them and looked in the direction of the sound.

In the distance, a black dot could be seen quickly approaching the island.

Layer after layer of air barriers were forcefully broken by his body, causing ripples to spread out. From afar, it looked like fireworks had exploded, and the aftershock affected an area of 1,000 kilometers.

Wherever the black dot passed, a semicircular pit appeared. The corpses of a large number of marine creatures that were shaken to death floated on the surface of the sea in his wake, and he was creating a bloody path behind him.

“Which sect’s master is it?” Many people exclaimed.

With this level of power, even though he was still quite a distance away from the island, people still felt afraid and their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably.

With just a glance at him, they felt as though the end of the world had arrived. Their bodies were telling them to run.

On a small lake in the middle of the island, the head of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, Ye Jianyuan, glanced at the willow tree king in the distance when he heard Lu Zhenshan’s voice.

The willow tree king did not react at all to Lu Zhenshan, who was at the same level as it and was rapidly approaching the island. Countless golden willow branches hung down naturally from the tree, as though it was not concerned by anything.

“Something is amiss,” Ye Jianyuan said in a low voice.

Compared to nine years ago, the willow tree king’s aura did not seem to have changed, but there was something strange about its behavior.

The core of the willow tree king ripened once every nine years, unlike the cores of the other willow trees that ripened once every three years.

“What’s wrong, Sect Master?” Zhou Xuesheng asked.

Ye Jianyuan turned around and said in a low voice, “I feel that something is amiss. Go back to East Sea Province and wait for me.”

Zhou Xuesheng’s expression changed, and he asked again, “What about the disciples in charge of transporting the willow tree cores and the spiritual spring?”

Other than Ye Jianyuan, the sect master of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, and the three court heads led by Zhou Xuesheng, there were also 12 true disciples selected from the various inner courts.

These true disciples carried various tools. They were mainly responsible for transporting the loot that had been obtained, and were also here for their training.

“Bring them all with you,” Ye Jianyuan replied.

“Yes.”

The three court heads did not ask any further and left the lake, heading straight to the location of the disciples they had brought along.

There were a few other factions that made similar arrangements.

Without exception, these factions were all at the same level as the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

In the mysterious valley, “The vast sea is all around you. Let’s see where you can escape to this time.”

With a loud laugh, a slightly old figure landed on the ground from midair.

It was as if an earthquake had occurred in the valley. Countless rocks slid down the edge of the valley, and many of the willow tree roots that had only a trace of life left in them were killed by the tremor.

However, Chen Yiming wasn’t too concerned about it. Three years later, the willow tree cores and the spiritual spring would no longer be of any use to him. As for Father Chen, Mother Chen, and Chen Yingying, they wouldn’t need that much either. As long as not all the willow trees died, it wouldn’t be a problem.

“Are you looking for me?” Chen Yiming asked calmly.

There was no doubt about the identity of the person who had arrived. There was only one possibility, and that was the sect master of the Kunshan Sect.

“The Kunshan Sect has no feud with you. It’s just a simple porcelain bowl. Why did you kill four of my sect’s court heads?” Lu Zhenshan questioned him, thinking that the masked man was already a dead man.

In his opinion, since the masked man had been held back by him, it was impossible for him to escape from under his nose, so he was not in any hurry to attack.

“That night, when the three court heads who were still alive returned to the sect, did they not tell you what had happened? It was the four court heads who attacked me first. I was just acting in self-defense.”

Chen Yiming sized up the sect master of the Kunshan Sect with interest.

Could it be that he also had a hidden talent for luck?

If the sect master of the Kunshan Sect appeared to cause trouble for him before he used the spiritual spring and the willow tree cores, he could only helplessly retreat while taking a small amount of the willow tree cores with him. With his powerful recovery ability, he could retreat while fighting.

His powerful recovery ability perfectly countered the Kunshan Sect’s Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist. He could endure some minor injuries for the sake of draining his opponent’s internal force, so Chen Yiming wasn’t afraid of him at all.

However, the sect master of the Kunshan Sect had only appeared in front of him after his combat strength had increased by another level. Wasn’t he a perfect punching bag for him to test the extent of his enhanced combat strength?

“You’re still trying to twist your words even at the brink of death. How do you feel now? The current me is just like you from that night, and you’re just like the four court heads of the sect from that night,” Lu Zhenshan said with a fierce expression.

At this moment, he had completely revealed his true appearance. He no longer had the image of an ordinary old man.

“I naturally have something to rely on since I dared to come to Mist Island. Do you really think I’m afraid of your Kunshan Sect?” Chen Yiming smiled.

Lu Zhenshan glanced at him and paused for a moment before saying, “So what if you found someone to rely on? Even if I have to pay with my life, you won’t be able to leave Mist Island alive.”

Hearing this, Chen Yiming understood that the other party had misunderstood him.

The support that Lu Zhenshan was talking about was an external source of help from someone at the same level as him. Little did he know that he had already undergone another transformation compared to 10 minutes ago.

The roles of hunter and prey had already been reversed within the past 10 minutes.

At this moment, Chen Yiming was relying on his own strength.

No matter how confident the other party was now, he would cause him to feel several times more despair in a short while.
