Chapter 215 Authentic Secret Techniques
Xiao Chen and the dozen or so Netherworld Guards were almost at the palace above the Yin-Yang Gate.
During this time, the dozen or so Netherworld Guards dealt with wave after wave of Yin-Yang Sect disciples who tried to intercept them, killing many people in the process.
Even with the Yin-Yang Sect's strong foundation, it's likely that most of them have been killed or injured.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with this sect? It's like they're sending us to our deaths..." the leader of the Underworld Guards muttered.
Xiao Chen smiled dismissively.
This is nothing more than another underhanded scheme by Xiao Yichen.
Just like the Song family, they sent the Yin-Yang Sect members to their deaths to weaken their side, so that the Heavenly King Palace could finish them off in the end.
They could reap the benefits without expending the Heavenly King Palace's elite forces; their plan was quite clever.
Even though he saw through it, Xiao Chen didn't care and still had the Netherworld Guards clear the way.
A quarter of an hour later, they ascended the stone steps in front of the Yin-Yang Gate's main hall.
Ahead, there was a large group of people.
The two elders of the Yin-Yang Sect led the last remaining disciples of the sect to form a battle formation and wait.
They had no choice but to be forced by Xiao Yichen to bring their Yin-Yang Sect members to fight, otherwise it would be a dead end.
Compared to the terrifyingly luxurious lineup of the Heavenly King's Palace, the two preferred to face Xiao Chen and his group.
"If we take down this kid, the Yin-Yang Sect can make a comeback!" The two looked at each other, sharing the same thought.
"Young man surnamed Xiao, surrender now and my Yin Yang Sect will not harm you!" someone shouted, attempting to subdue the enemy without a fight.
"You dozen or so are all at your last gasp; you have no chance of winning. Give up!"
Xiao Chen remained silent, waving his hand to signal the Netherworld Guards to advance.
"Damn it! Stubborn to the end!" The two elders of Yin and Yang had grim faces and could only order their disciples to surround and attack the enemy.
With over fifty disciples, plus the two of them, they seemed to have a significant advantage.
"These people have been through many battles and have suffered heavy losses. Their strength is less than one-tenth of what it used to be. Whoever can take down one of them will be richly rewarded! The more heads they take, the greater the reward!" The two elders began to boost morale.
"Take your medicine," the leader of the Underworld Guards suddenly shouted.
The dozen or so underworld guards who were advancing all took out a pill from their bodies and put it in their mouths to chew.
In just a short while, the more than ten people who were originally somewhat listless suddenly surged in momentum, and there was no trace of their decline due to insufficient true energy.
"What?" The two elders stared wide-eyed.
"What kind of medicine is that? How can it be so miraculous?" They found it hard to believe.
"It looks like the 'Rejuvenation Pill,' a secret medicine from the Xiao family of Jiang City!" someone with sharp eyes exclaimed upon seeing the words on the bottle on the ground.
"The Rejuvenation Pill? Isn't that extremely rare and precious?" The two elders stared at each other, their eyes wide with disbelief.
That's a life-saving miracle drug! Even they couldn't get their hands on it, yet these people are eating it like candy...
Before they could even register their surprise, the two sides were already locked in battle.
It wasn't until the actual battle that the Yin-Yang Elders realized just how formidable the fighting power of these dozen or so people was.
Even the weakest is at least a half-step King level!
Among them are three king-level experts!
With such a lineup, the members of the Yin-Yang Sect would only be crushed and slaughtered in front of them.
The two elders were heartbroken as they watched their disciples fall one by one.
If they keep killing, the Yin-Yang Sect will truly be left with only one leader.
"To catch the thief, first catch the king!" The two quickly rushed towards Xiao Chen.
"Yin Yang Technique!"
They shouted and unleashed the ultimate techniques of the Yin-Yang Sect, each condensing a high-speed spinning ball of true energy the size of a lead ball in their palm, which they then blasted towards Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen glanced at them indifferently, raised one hand, and uttered a few words:
"Seven-cycle True Qi".
"Waaaaah..."
In an instant, Xiao Chen also condensed a ball of true energy that was spinning at the same high speed in his hand, and it spun three more times than the Yin-Yang Elders.
The two of them had four cyclones, while Xiao Chen had seven.
"what?!"
Upon seeing this, the two elders' expressions changed drastically, filled with disbelief and shock.
"The highest level of Yin-Yang Technique, Seven Rotations! How could he..." The two were extremely shocked, to the point that the speed of the vortex in their palms slowed down considerably.
Aren't they just showing off their limited skills in front of an expert?
The problem is that Xiao Chen also knows the Yin-Yang Sect's secret techniques, and his level is far higher than theirs!
The changes are not over.
The vortex in Xiao Chen's hand rapidly expanded, growing into a large sphere with a diameter of over one meter in the blink of an eye.
This nearly scared the two elders so much that they collapsed to the ground.
Is this really the same martial art? How can the difference be so huge?
"Om..."
Xiao Chen released a vortex of energy from his hand, which blasted towards the Yin-Yang Elders.
As the true qi vortex rotated, the surrounding air distorted as well. The qi vortices in the hands of the Yin-Yang Elders were affected and rotated along with them. In the end, they were actually absorbed into Xiao Chen's qi vortex and merged into it.
The two were terrified and immediately tried to run away.
But the powerful suction from the massive cyclone forced the two backward, making it impossible for them to run away.
Even though they tried their best, they couldn't get rid of it, and their expressions were full of terror.
"Buzz..." The two were caught in the vortex and let out a heart-wrenching scream.
The other Yin-Yang Sect members were so frightened that their faces turned ashen, and they couldn't stop retreating.
The tearing force of the cyclone was terrifying. The person who was caught the deepest was torn to pieces on the spot. The other person fared much better, with only one arm torn off. He managed to break free and fled the cyclone in a panic, his face pale.
"What was that?" He watched the cyclone gradually dissipate with lingering fear, his body still trembling.
"What? Your Yin Yang Sect has the secret manual of the Seven Cycles True Qi, and yet no one has reached the seventh level after all these years?" Xiao Chen mocked.
"The seventh level... Seven-fold True Qi..." The last old man was suddenly shocked, looking at Xiao Chen in disbelief.
“You…you are…” His pupils shrank, and his expression turned fearful.
The Yin-Yang Skill was originally called Seven-Turning True Qi, but it was altered by the Three Elders of Yin and Yang in order to promote it as the unique skill of the Yin-Yang Sect.
The only people who know this name are those who came from it.
The one who gave them the secret manual was the then-ruler of the Underworld...
The more the old man looked at Xiao Chen, the more horrified he became.
Such strength at such a young age is truly astonishing.
But if he is the lord of the Underworld, then it seems normal.
"So it turns out we've been going against Hades all along..." The old man of Yin and Yang gave a bitter smile.
Just like the Song family, they all believed that the Underworld Palace had relinquished its control over the subordinate forces of Jiang City.
Because the Yin-Yang Sect had done many shady things, they feared retribution from the Underworld Palace and thus sought refuge with the Heavenly King Palace.
Even when Hades himself arrives, his immense power still terrifies them.
One is Hades, the other is the young master, how can they be compared?
"Disciples of the Yin-Yang Sect, heed my command! Retreat immediately and do not resist in any further!" the elder of the Yin-Yang Sect shouted.
He was forced to come here as cannon fodder by Xiao Yichen, and upon learning that the King of the Underworld was coming, he was even less willing to resist.
He attempted to use a final concession to buy the Yin-Yang Sect a way out.
"Leave two people behind to keep an eye on them," Xiao Chen said calmly, before stepping into the Yin-Yang Sect's main hall.
Two gazes clashed in mid-air.
Xiao Chen and Xiao Yichen stared at each other across the distance...
