Chapter 817 Peerless Nemesis Ji Kun!

Ji Yuan, Ji Hui, and Ji Nan were members of the Ji Family, but they were merely branch members of the Divine Descendant Ji Family. Thus, Ye Tianling did not make a move. Even if he could kill Yao Meng’Er, his energy would be entirely depleted. The Form and Intent Transformation Technique would lose its effect, reverting him to his true identity as Ye Tianling. By then, if that Saint appeared, he would be hard-pressed to deal with them.

He was waiting—waiting for the Saint to show up.

Sure enough, during the brief moment Ye Tianling was lost in thought, a terrifying Holy Dao Aura flowed out like water through the entire Holy Dao Killing Array. Immediately after, a figure materialized.

Upon seeing this figure, Ye Tianling’s pupils contracted, and deep killing intent flashed in his eyes. The arrival was actually Ye Tianling’s former enemy, Ji Kun! The same Ji Kun who had wanted to kill Ye Tianling prematurely for a harvest! His azure wings, Battle Armor, and aura were exactly the same as before. However, Ji Kun’s figure was noticeably weaker than when Ye Tianling had seen him in the past.

Ye Tianling’s Soul Talent immediately detected that although Ji Kun was a Saint and had entered this area, it was only his Dao Body that had come here!

Ye Tianling’s memories drifted back to that scene in the Soul Burial Starry Sky. There, he had been intercepted and suppressed by Ji Kun, who brutally shattered his legs and forced him to his knees! At the time, if Feng Chaoge hadn’t intervened, he probably would have been humiliated to death! Yet even with her intervention, Feng Chaoge was still severely wounded by a single strike from him, coughing up mouthfuls of blood. Later, he had gathered all his Battle Power and summoned the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword, only for it to be shattered by Ji Kun in a single blow, nearly completely destroying it...

Afterward, if not for the appearance of the Life Law Guardian, Ji Yuechan, who killed Ji Xing, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Meeting his enemy face-to-face, Ye Tianling found his killing intent nearly impossible to suppress. And fueled by this deep-seated hatred, he couldn’t control his killing intent—nor did he try to.

"You hate me a lot? Panhuang Star Domain? Yanyue Heng of the Pangu Race? Never heard of such a nobody." Ji Kun had appeared, his azure wings making him look exceptionally divine and handsome. Yet his aura remained as arrogant and unfathomable as ever.

"A nobody? Ji Kun, I’m afraid you also came here seeking a rare opportunity, right? Tell me, if your Dao Body is slain here and you are forced to leave the Taiyin Ancient Tomb early, wouldn’t your loss be quite substantial?" Ye Tianling mocked, his voice cold, eerie, and carrying a hint of cruelty!

Hearing this, Ji Kun’s pupils slightly contracted. "It seems there truly is bad blood between us. Since that’s the case, you must be a descendant of some trash I killed in the past. Nothing to worry about. I, Ji Kun, have rampaged across an entire era and have never met a true rival. Not in the past, and not in the future, either!"

Ji Kun’s tone was incredibly aloof. Locking his gaze on Ye Tianling, he added, "A mere Three Paths Sword Ancestor. Your bloodline is decent enough, making it perfect to be a Blood Sacrifice for my Harvesting Technique."

Ye Tianling was utterly fearless, not in the least intimidated by Ji Kun’s words. What was there to hold back against an enemy like this? Hadn’t he refrained from attacking Yao Meng’Er and the other two precisely to wait for the moment the Saint appeared? He had suspected that Ji Kun might show up, considering Ji Kun was in charge of Ji Yun and Yao Meng’Er’s Cultivation Resources—something Ye Tianling had deduced back when Feng Cailuo first met and suppressed Ji Yun.

Now that his fated enemy, Ji Kun, had appeared, Ye Tianling was willing to expose his secrets if it came down to it.

"Yanyan, I don’t want to always rely on your Battle Power, but I must kill this man—even if it’s only slaying his Dao Body, I don’t care about the price!" Ye Tianling murmured in his heart, communicating with Yanyan.

He knew his own Abilities well. Relying solely on the Form and Intent Transformation Technique, he couldn’t become any stronger. Fundamentally, the limit of his transformation was the absolute ceiling of his Battle Power. Being at the Sword Tribulation Third Refining Realm with a Battle Power of Breaking Ten, the ultimate limit of his Form and Intent Transformation Technique was to turn into an expert at the Three Paths of Sword Ancestor Realm. Moreover, if the energy depletion from this transformation was too severe, he would suffer massive side effects after reverting to his true form. If he didn’t overexert himself, there naturally wouldn’t be any backlash.

"Is that so?" Ye Tianling’s thoughts raced like lightning. As he indifferently replied to Ji Kun, he directly Sensed Yanyan’s body. He planned to enter Yanyan’s body in this state and slaughter everyone here.

However, just as this thought sprouted, his Bloodline Power suddenly trembled. Yanyan’s body didn’t swap places with him; instead, it turned into a wisp of Purple Flame. Emanating from his glabella, it flowed straight into his body. At this crucial moment, Yanyan had actually initiated an Integration with him! It was as if Yanyan had merged her entire being into Ye Tianling’s physical form, granting him a true Emperor’s Body!

In that instant, Ye Tianling’s white hair instinctively turned a striking purple. When the purple Emperor’s Qi permeated the air, Ji Kun’s expression instantly changed!

"Go!" Ji Kun immediately shouted, instantly shrouding Yao Meng’Er, Ji Yun, and Ji Lansi in his Holy Dao Aura. Clearly, he placed immense importance on the prodigies of the Ji Family. The moment "Yanyue Heng’s" physique changed, he instantly Sensed a fatal crisis!

In fact, it wasn’t just Ji Kun who noticed this terrifying shift; Ji Yun, Ji Lansi, and Yao Meng’Er had also noticed it right away. The trio’s expressions drastically changed. Almost by instinct, they turned into streaks of Flowing Light and fled wildly in three different directions.

But would Ye Tianling show any mercy? This was the moment he was at his most powerful. Like a peerless Great Emperor resurrected. Like a peerless emperor Descending. The more Ji Kun valued them, the more he wanted to bring Destruction! Only by making Ji Kun feel bone-deep pain could this hatred be even slightly avenged!

Whether it was for the humiliation of being forced to his knees with shattered legs, the humiliation of seeing Feng Chaoge beaten until she coughed blood, or the tragic suffering of his many female confidants in the Buried Soul Star Domain who had been harvested or suppressed. The entire Buried Soul Star Domain was a grand scheme orchestrated by Upper Ranks like the Divine Descendant Jiang Family and Ji Family. The Ji Family was practically the core mastermind. Regardless of karma, this deep-seated hatred had already sunk into his very bones and Soul.

"Trying to leave? Do you think you can! Slaying prodigies? Harvesting Talents? Let me show you exactly how it feels to watch all the prodigies by your side get destroyed!" Ye Tianling sneered aloud.

His figure moved. With a WHOOSH, he pierced straight through the Void.

HUM.

With a ripple in the Void, Ye Tianling appeared on the other side.

"Such arrogance! Since you’re courting death, I, Ji Kun, will grant your wish!" Ji Kun spat in a chilling tone. He felt the pressure, but his Dao Body was at the peak of the Holy Dao Realm. Naturally, he didn’t fear the Yanyue Heng standing before him!

After all, in the Taiyin Ancient Tomb—where Divine Spirits didn’t descend and Venerables didn’t appear—Ji Kun was practically invincible. Therefore, after his initial unease, Ji Kun’s expression turned equally icy, completely shedding his apprehension! Trying to slaughter the peerless prodigies of his Divine Descendant Ji Family right under his nose? This was blatant provocation!
