Martial Defiance Across Nine Thousand Realms

Five demons, skilled in coordination, pounced to kill in the blink of an eye, targeting Ye Han and the other three.

Weapons appeared in their hands, treasures seized from human martial artists.

"Elemental Sword Technique!"

Nie Yuan was the first to strike.

"Serpent Shadow Sword Technique!"

"Mighty Palm!"

Zhao Yijian and He Qingfeng also made their moves in an instant.

The trio was clearly prepared, reacting swiftly in such a moment.

However, a shocking change occurred during the clash; Nie Yuan's sword shattered with a crack, and a demon's overwhelming power burst forth, sending Nie Yuan flying several meters away.

Zhao Yijian's sword struck a demon's fist, and upon collision, the demon remained unscathed, save for a shallow imprint.

Similarly, in a head-on collision, Zhao Yijian was immediately defeated, grunting continuously as he retreated.

He Qingfeng fared even worse; his punch was met with a direct counter from a demon, sending him reeling with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

"What?"

The three were horrified, their faces showing fear.

Especially Nie Yuan, who was frustrated as his battle sword had been shattered. How could he fight without a weapon?

"Such fresh blood, die!"

The remaining two demons lunged at Ye Han simultaneously.

These demons seemed to sense that Ye Han's vitality was the most vigorous, and for their kind, hunting martial artists was to devour their flesh and blood to strengthen themselves.

Boom! Boom!

Ye Han's punches were fierce and domineering, his energy tyrannical.

The first punch of the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Fist, Tiger Descends the Mountain, erupted, controlled at will.

After two consecutive punches, the two malicious demons screamed in agony, their arm bones shattered, roaring in anger.

"Brother Nie Yuan, step back!"

Ye Han quickly moved in front of Nie Yuan, sweeping away the demon that was attacking with a battle sword, causing it to howl in pain.

Ye Han's fist slammed into the sword, transferring his immense power through it, disarming the demon with a single punch.

"Damn it!"

The demon howled, its voice filled with deep murderous intent.

"Die!"

Ye Han's second punch was swift as lightning, the demon's chest bursting with blood, nearly having its heart shattered by Ye Han.

Falling to the ground, the demon glared at Ye Han with extreme hatred, powerless to rise and counterattack.

Glancing at the ground, Ye Han then leaped forward, moving with the grace of a dragon and the strength of a tiger, quickly rescuing Zhao Yijian and He Qingfeng as well.

In less than a hundred breaths, nearly all five demons lay on the ground, their faces filled with fear.

Nie Yuan and the others seized the opportunity to strike, swiftly slaying them all and eliminating future threats.

"Phew..."

Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Nie Yuan relaxed, then the three looked at Ye Han in amazement.

"I never expected Brother Ye Han to be so powerful!" Nie Yuan said, still shaken but also pleased.

Having such a formidable ally, they believed slaying the Earth Rampage Bear would be much simpler.

He Qingfeng also expressed his gratitude, "Brother Ye Han, this time, we owe you a great favor. We didn't expect these demons to be so fierce."

"It's nothing."

Ye Han shook his head, "Your martial skills are well-practiced, but your physical strength is lacking. Demons are similar to monster beasts, with astonishing vitality and strong bodies. You shouldn't clash head-on but rather use martial skills to entangle them."

The gap between Nie Yuan's trio and the five demons wasn't that great; it was just a lack of combat experience.

But the path of martial arts is about constantly improving oneself and growing stronger, which is quite normal.

Ye Han was satisfied with himself; he had just defeated a demon in the Divine Power Realm, crushing it effortlessly in a head-on clash.

It seems that after awakening the Eternal Invincible Dragon Body, his overall physical quality had indeed improved greatly.

Although he was at the Gathering Core ninth layer, facing an opponent in the Divine Power Realm, Ye Han now had the confidence to defeat them.

If Li Kai were still alive and dared to be presumptuous in front of him, Ye Han was confident he could kill him with a few punches within thirty breaths.

Ye Han walked forward and picked up the battle sword dropped by the Divine Power Realm demon.

"Nie Yuan, your sword is broken. Use this one for now," Ye Han said.

Without a weapon, it was incredibly dangerous in Demon Ridge. Not everyone had the Eternal Invincible Dragon Body like him, capable of fighting demons and monster beasts head-on.

"This sword?"

"A Human Level superior battle sword, too precious, I can't accept it," Nie Yuan immediately shook his head.

Nie Yuan's sword had been shattered because the demon's sword reached the Human Level superior grade. Weapons of the same quality were much more precious than elixirs. In terms of value, this sword was worth at least tens of thousands of Vigor Pills.

Even among the Outer Sect disciples, a Human Level superior weapon was considered a treasure, very valuable.

"Stop being so modest."

"Also, keep the demon core from that Divine Power Realm demon for yourself," Ye Han added.

He looked at Zhao Yijian, who was about to speak, but Zhao Yijian preempted with a wry smile, "Brother Ye Han, no need to say more. Since the four of us came together, we share our fortunes and misfortunes. It's only right for them to receive compensation for a broken weapon and injuries."

"Alright!" Ye Han didn't elaborate further, his gaze warm.

Although they were all menial disciples with low status, they were young and full of vigor, especially getting along with Nie Yuan and the others, which was quite relaxing, with mutual honesty and no scheming.

This was a rare feeling for Ye Han, to interact with others so comfortably, an experience he seldom had.

Soon, He Qingfeng extracted the demon core from the demon's body.

Demons, a mutated race from ancient times, would develop a demon core within their bodies upon reaching the Divine Power Realm, similar to the beast cores inside monster beasts, which could also be refined by people.

It was said that the demon cores from some incredibly powerful demons could even contain the inheritance of the demon's martial skills, though whether that was true or not was uncertain.

"Brother Ye Han, you contributed the most this time..." He Qingfeng offered the core to Ye Han.

"Such an ordinary demon core is useless to me!" Ye Han declined directly.

He practiced the Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique, which, when activated, absorbed the energy of heaven and earth at a rate hundreds or thousands of times greater than ordinary people, and the divine power transformed in just a moment was incomparable to the energy inside a single demon core.

After resting for a while, the group set off again, searching for the Earth Rampage Bear.

According to the research done by Nie Yuan and the others, the Earth Rampage Bear was likely to be found within three kilometers of the outskirts of Demon Ridge.

"Help, save me!"

"Is there anyone from the Cycle Academy to save me..."

Suddenly, a fearful and trembling cry for help came from the forest ahead, accompanied by a strong scent of blood.

"Someone is calling for help?"

Nie Yuan hurried towards the source of the voice.@@novelbin@@

"Wait!"

Ye Han looked at Nie Yuan, "Are you rushing to your death?"

"Brother, the one calling for help is a disciple from our Cycle Academy," Nie Yuan said urgently, looking at Ye Han.

Zhao Yijian and He Qingfeng were also moved, but they didn't act as impulsively as before, instead looking to Ye Han for his opinion.

"This is Demon Ridge, where life and death are unpredictable. Saving someone depends on whether you have the strength to do so," Ye Han shook his head.
