Ye Yang had heard about the taboos for warriors to break through the bottleneck before, that is, they must be fully prepared to break through in one fell swoop.
Because if you fail to attack the bottleneck, the difficulty of attacking the bottleneck next time will be doubled, and so on.
When the first time fails, those who can succeed the second time basically have a slim chance of even 1%.
After two failures, the barrier will become stronger, and the warrior will need to withstand more than four times the original difficulty. The chance of success is slim.
After three consecutive failures, basically no one can continue to do useless work and can only accept the fate of being unable to break through for life.
But Ye Yang has never encountered such a situation since he practiced the God-Slaying Technique. He thought that such a situation did not apply to him.
But today he was tricked by Jiu Xuan. He counted on his fingers afterwards and found that he had tried ten times in total. So once it was twice as much, twice as four times... then after the tenth time, how difficult would it be for him to hit the barrier next time?
That's one thousand and twenty-four times the original number. Thinking about this number, Ye Yang has the urge to vomit blood.
However, Jiu Xuan said in a leisurely manner, "Don't look so bitter. In fact, if you want to break through the Martial Emperor, it's easy. You just need to kill more than a thousand emperors. Isn't that enough?"
Ye Yang said angrily, "You don't have a small tone. You think you are killing chickens. I have been killing chickens for several days, and I have only killed less than a hundred."
"Yes, yes, there are less than a hundred, so just kill them for a while. Anyway, you will have nothing to do if you are idle," Jiuxuan said indifferently.
Ye Yang's face turned cold and he said in a sinister tone, "Jiu Xuan, I think all of this was caused by you on purpose. If I hadn't asked you at that time, I'm afraid you would have kept letting me try."
"There is absolutely no such thing. It is meaningless to say this now. The gold coins I gave you last time will expire in more than a month. Your little girlfriend is going to suffer again. You should break through the emperor quickly and find her.
"It's wonderful," Jiuxuan said, changing the topic.
When Ye Yang thought of Chu Yanran, his heart suddenly became hot. He no longer bothered to pay attention to Jiuxuan and continued to fight forward.
Seeing that Ye Yang no longer pressed him, Jiu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and continued to absorb evil souls.
Ye Yang continued to move deeper into the abyss and calculated the distance. At this time, he had gone more than 8,000 miles into the Demonic Abyss, which was beyond the hunting range of 3,000 miles.
There was no choice because Ye Yang had killed all the high-level demons on the periphery, and there were still people grabbing monsters from time to time, so he could only continue to go deeper.
But what Ye Yang didn't know was that his whereabouts had already caused an uproar. The disciples who participated in the hunt saw the corpses of emperor-level demons and speculated on who did it.
In the end, everyone agreed that it must be the work of Ye Qingqian and others, because there were six emperor-level experts among them, so it was logical to kill the emperor-level demon.
Everyone admired Ye Qingqian and others even more. Once, they actually found seven emperor-level demon corpses at the same time, and they were even more in awe of their fighting power.
Six people had to take care of one person who was lagging behind, but they were still able to kill seven emperor-level demons. This was simply the audacity of a skilled person.
Ye Yang has been in killing mode these days. He has been killing for seven consecutive days and has killed hundreds of emperor-level demons. However, Ye Yang's cultivation has not increased at all and he is still at the peak of the king-level.
As he was walking forward that day, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he noticed a powerful aura rising from the distance.
It was an extremely violent aura. It was not human, but the aura of a demon. After sensing the intensity of the aura, I realized that it was actually a half-step master-level demon.
Ye Yang quickly unfolded his consciousness and suddenly discovered that an abyss demon nearly ten feet tall was chasing a group of people.
In front of it were six figures running in panic, one of them was slim and graceful, with colorful sleeves fluttering, it was Ye Qingqian, the pearl of the Ye clan.
At this time, she was running forward with a nervous look on her face. Behind her, it was Ye Yulong, the top young man of the Ye clan's generation, and others who were also running for their lives.
Ye Yang looked at this group of embarrassed figures from a distance with some dumbfounding. He couldn't understand that these guys with low cultivation level were quite capable of causing trouble, and they actually attracted a half-step sect leader-level demon.
If Ye Yulong and others knew Ye Yang's thoughts, they would definitely curse, because they came here because of Ye Yang.
They are all king-level masters, and each of them is extremely proud. They don't want to kill demons below the king level to complete the mission.
They started looking for emperor-level demons to kill. The first two days were fine, as a few people killed more than a dozen early-stage emperor-level demons, but in the next two days, they didn't even encounter a single emperor-level monster.
All they saw were the corpses of emperor-level monsters everywhere. They couldn't help but be horrified. They had to know that among the entire disciples, they were the ones with the highest cultivation level and the strongest combat power. There were actually people hunting emperor-level demons like them. They couldn't help but be aroused.
Their curiosity was piqued and they were ready to find out this mysterious team.
Following the corpses along the way, they went deep into the abyss of demons. The more they searched, the more frightened they became. Seeing the corpses of demons on the ground getting stronger and more numerous, they were finally ready to retreat.
Unfortunately, they were unlucky. A half-step sect master-level monster stared at them. Its powerful aura made them so frightened that they didn't even have the courage to take action, so they all ran for their lives.
Although the demon is powerful, its speed is not particularly fast, so they have a chance to escape.
But seeing its huge body slowly approaching, everyone knew that it would be difficult to escape.
Ye Yulong suddenly had an idea and ran wildly in another direction. The demon chasing behind him ignored him and continued to chase the crowd.
When everyone saw it, they dispersed one after another. The devil ignored the others and continued to chase Ye Qingqian.
Ye Qingqian's face suddenly turned pale, a trace of fear flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she continued to run, her eyes drifting past the others.
Everyone saw that the devil was only chasing Ye Qingqian. Although they also had the intention to save the beauty, they did not have the power to save the beauty. Compared with beauty and life, they chose the latter, pretending not to hear Ye Qingqian's cry for help, and ran away with their heads down.
Ye Yulong had already run far away, and a voice came from far away: "Don't be afraid, sister Qingqian, hold on, I'll go get you some reinforcements right away."
A trace of bitterness flashed across Ye Qingqian's beautiful eyes. She was afraid that her life would be at stake. How could she still have time to wait for your rescuers?
These people who usually looked tall and mighty and threatened to protect themselves abandoned themselves at the critical moment. Ye Qingqian felt a little aggrieved, but still did not say a word and ran forward with all her strength.
After running for hundreds of miles, the demon behind him finally caught up. Ye Qingqian gritted his silver teeth and stopped. He held a long sword in his hand and drew a semicircle in the air. A long sword shadow pointed at the demon.
Cut down.
But the demon didn't stop at all, and punched Ye Qingqian. The huge fist collided with the shadow of the sword.
There was an explosion, and Ye Qingqian's delicate figure was immediately blown away, her whole body was in severe pain, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, which made people feel pity for her.
Ye Qingqian watched calmly as the demon punched him again, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, was it about to end?
"Bang"
A thin black figure appeared in front of her, and the back made her feel vaguely familiar.
When the man saw the demon's punch coming, he also punched out, and the two completely disproportionate fists collided heavily.
"Bang"
The ground shook wildly, and cracks about a foot wide spread out crazily.
This person was Ye Yang. When he saw Ye Yulong and others actually leaving Ye Qingqian and running away alone, Ye Yang felt infinite contempt in his heart.
Even if he is a king in Ye Nu's lineage, he will not abandon his companions and escape alone even if he knows that he is no match.
Seeing that Ye Qingqian was in danger, Ye Yang had no choice but to take action. Ye Yang blocked the demon with a punch, turned to Ye Qingqian who was in a daze and shouted, "Why are you still standing there stupidly? Why don't you run away?"
Ye Qingqian never expected that the person standing in front of him at the last moment would be Ye Yang, who had always been ostracized and ridiculed by everyone.
Hearing Ye Yang's cold shout, he suddenly woke up, holding a long sword and said, "Thank you for saving me, but I won't escape. Even if I die, let us die together."
"Bang"
Ye Yang received another punch from the demon, and the powerful force shocked him. His energy and blood surged. This half-step master-level demon was too powerful.
Ye Yang said angrily, "Are you an idiot? What's the difference between you being here and dying, get out now?"
As soon as Ye Yang finished cursing, he avoided the devil's other arm, swung his spear, and hit the devil's calf hard.
"Bang"
Ye Yang's blow actually only made the demon stagger a step and was not injured. However, to Ye Yang's surprise, Ye Qingqian was not scolded away by him.
Standing there with beautiful eyes weeping, she cried aggrievedly, "You actually scolded me. No one has ever scolded me since I was a child."
Ye Yang was speechless for a while. Could it be that these people have been in this small world for hundreds of thousands of years and their brains have become stiff. How long has it been since then and they still care about this? "
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have cursed. You can leave quickly, okay?" Ye Yang avoided and apologized with a wry smile.
Listening to Ye Yang's apology, Ye Qingqian wiped away her tears, and a smile appeared on her pretty face, like a pear blossom blooming.
Ye Yang was affected by her smile and his heart beat wildly, but then he said angrily, "I've already apologized, why don't you leave?"
Ye Qingqian shook his head, holding a long sword in his hand and said, "I can't leave you to escape alone. I want to fight side by side with you. Even if I die, I will die without regrets."
Ye Qingqian's words made Ye Yang feel angry, funny, and a little touched. This weak woman actually had such heroic spirit in her bones. How could Ye Yulong and others still have the honor to live in the world?
"You really don't want to leave," Ye Yang said with a cold face.
"I won't leave." Ye Qingqian waved her long sword in her jade hand, her pretty face full of stubbornness.
Ye Yang had no choice but to take a deep breath and said, "If you don't want to leave, don't leave. Just stay far away and I won't hurt you for a while."
Ye Yang said that his entire body turned into silver, and a powerful aura erupted, like a god coming to the world. (To be continued)
