Chapter 761: Chapter 758: Yang Chen’s Initial Achievements_1
(Name correction. In the first three chapters, the names Han and Zheng were blocked out and have now been changed to Han Zheng.)
Describing Yang Chen’s current speed of passing levels as drinking water was not an exaggeration at all because his speed was indeed as fast as lightning. If Wu Sheng took only one hour to pass the first ten levels of the True Martial Realm Trial Tower, then Yang Chen…
Only took the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
The gap had been greatly reduced.
By now, Yang Chen had already entered the Tenth Level.
Breaking into the Tenth Level was not a surprising feat for these geniuses. It’s quite normal for a half-step True Martial Realm martial artist to enter the tenth level. However, shocking everyone was the fact that he reached the Tenth Level in just the time it takes to enjoy a cup of tea.
In the time it takes to have a sip of tea, Yang Chen had already rushed to the Tenth Floor. How incredible was that?
“This speed is just too fast!”
“Could it be that this Yang Chen will also make a name for himself in this Trial Tower?”
“This year’s Thirty-six Eastern Counties seem to have produced a promising genius!”
“It’s too early to jump to conclusions now. Just because he’s quick doesn’t mean he can make it far. It may seem fast that he has reached the Tenth Level, but if he doesn’t have enough stamina, it’s all in vain and useless!”
“That’s right. In the past, there were no shortage of martial artists who started off strong only to lose strength later on. They all began bravely, but wilted in the end.”
Many people thought this way because Yang Chen’s speed was just too fast, bordering on unbelievable.
Both Han Zheng and Wu Sheng agreed.
However, just as everyone had their doubts, Yang Chen entered the Eleventh Layer.
Moreover, for Yang Chen, his speed had not slowed down at all. Even when he reached the Eleventh Layer, he still maintained the same speed as when he first started.
Subsequently, Yang Chen entered the Twelfth Floor.
Then the Thirteenth Floor.
That meant that breaking through the levels after the Tenth was the same concept as breaking through the first few levels for Yang Chen. The high pressure and difficulty these levels brought had no significant difference for him.
Indeed!
Yang Chen reached the Thirteenth Floor without slowing down. Since reaching the Half-step True Martial Realm, he had a basic understanding of how to manage his True Qi. As long as he didn’t use the Slaughter God Spear, his True Qi would be sufficient to support him in continuing to break through.
That’s why from the beginning, Yang Chen had no intention of holding back. He directly used the trump cards of Holy Ants and Starfire.
Under these two trump cards, whether facing one or ten stone monsters made no difference to him.
He plowed through without stopping.
Breaking, breaking, breaking!
Yang Chen controlled an endless stream of Holy Ants, crushing and sweeping through the stone monsters that matched his strength. In a short while, these stone monsters’ Combined Attack Formations were broken.
“Starfire, go!” Yang Chen unleashed his technique.
Three breaths later, after having broken open the Combined Attack Formations, the thirteen stone monsters were destroyed one after another.
The thirteen stone monsters turned into stone pieces scattered on the ground.
Yang Chen successfully passed the Thirteenth Floor and entered the Fourteenth Floor.
Fourteenth Floor, fourteen stone monsters.
For Yang Chen, this was, of course, not his limit. It’s important to know that before entering the Half-step True Martial Realm, he had already reached the Sixteenth Floor. Although he stopped at the Sixteenth Floor, it still meant that the layers before the Sixteenth Floor were not enough to stop him.
Moreover, now that his strength had greatly increased, reaching the Half-step True Martial Realm and merging with the newly acquired Heavenly Thunder Origin, coupled with the help of Holy Ants, Yang Chen’s goal was no longer simply the Sixteenth Floor!
“The only regret is that I didn’t bring many spirit talismans with me this time. I just made a few spirit talismans on my way back with Elder Zhu. I’m not sure if it’s enough.” Yang Chen sighed in his heart.
As the words fell, his hands raised, and with the combined power of Shapeshifting Liquid Fire, Starfire, and the Holy Ants, he defeated the fourteenth floor’s stone monsters’ Combined Attack Formations. The Fourteenth Floor’s stone monsters were then torn apart into pieces of stone.
Yang Chen entered the Fifteenth Floor.
The speed of breaking through levels still did not slow down.
At this point, shock spread through everyone’s hearts.
“What… His speed hasn’t slowed down at all?”
“Could it be that this kid deliberately used up all his available tactics earlier to save his strength later on? This is undoubtedly a foolish move. What will he use later if he used up all his tactics now?”
“I guess Yang Chen must be doing that!”
“Don’t rush to conclusions!”
Everyone was discussing, but most people still thought that Yang Chen’s ability to break through so quickly was due to his early use of tactics.
“If Yang Chen had really used up all his tactics early on, then the Fifteenth Floor would be his nightmare.”
“Yeah, the difficulty starts to soar once you reach the Fifteenth Floor…”
Before they could finish speaking, the lights on the Fifteenth Floor went out, and then the lights on the Sixteenth Floor quietly came on.
Yang Chen entered the Sixteenth Floor!
As soon as Yang Chen entered the Sixteenth Floor, many people who had doubted and denied his talent before were now looking at each other awkwardly with nothing to say.
“Haha, Yang Chen is indeed excellent. He has entered the Sixteenth Floor. Not bad, not bad.” Zhu Hailong clapped his thighs in appreciation.
In his eyes, Yang Chen being able to break into the Sixteenth Floor was already a very outstanding achievement.
One should be content with what they have. As long as Yang Chen’s performance satisfied him, he didn’t expect Yang Chen to compete with other demons.
However, just as he had this thought, an elder suddenly approached Zhu Hailong and whispered something.
Zhu Hailong wasn’t taking it seriously at first, but when he heard the words, he was taken aback: “What? You said Yang Chen started the Trial Tower at the Yuanwu Realm Fifth Layer and made it all the way to the Sixteenth Floor of the Trial Tower?”
“It’s true. But before entering the Huangsha City Trial Tower, my young friend Yang Chen was only at the Yuanwu Realm Fifth Layer. And even then, he managed to make it to the Sixteenth Floor of the Trial Tower,” said the elder.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Hailong’s eyes lit up with surprise and joy as he exclaimed, “Good, good, good!”
He joked, for Yang Chen to have reached the Sixteenth Floor while only being at the Yuanwu Realm Fifth Layer before entering the Half-step True Martial Realm was truly something to look forward to. If he had known this earlier, he would have given Yang Chen two more treasures. How could he have known that Yang Chen could make such a name for himself in the trial tower?
“It’s truly something to look forward to.” Zhu Hailong was looking forward to it in his heart.
However, just when that happened, someone spoke out inappropriately, “I say, Zhu Hailong, you shouldn’t throw your words around. Heh, who can’t brag?”
