“Go to hell, you bastard!” With a final cold shout, Yin Wushuang’s sword suddenly tore through space. A silver sword-light soared into the sky, and it appeared like a silver river as it hacked down on Long Chen.
“What a terrifying sword! She wasn’t using her true strength before.”
“She really is too strong. Just the shockwaves of this kind of attack can instantly kill me,” said a Favored with a quivering voice.
Everyone present had already advanced to the Bone Forging realm. Having just advanced, they were all filled with confidence.
But now seeing this attack, that new confidence of theirs was shattered.
They had finally realized a certain fact: they had advanced, but others had also advanced. Cannon fodder would always remain cannon fodder.
“Long Chen won’t be defeated in just one attack, right? That would be too boring.”
A blood-colored saber suddenly appeared in Long Chen’s hand. A large saber-image smashed heavily onto Yin Wushuang’s sword-image.
That sword-image instantly collapsed, and a terrifying Saber Qi smashed into Yin Wushuang.
In front of everyone’s stunned eyes, Yin Wushuang was knocked back into the distance and vomited a mouthful of blood.
The berserk power had blown apart her headband, causing her long hair to become a mess, and her eyes were filled with absolute shock.
The entire crowd was deathly silent. Everyone’s gazes landed upon the calm, expressionless Long Chen.
At this time, Long Chen was still maintaining his posture after swinging. That blow had seemed like a random slash from a divinity.
“If you hadn’t done what you’ve done, you wouldn’t die so soon. But it seems you don’t understand that. Since you want to die so much, I’ll help you out.”
Suddenly, a three-hundred-meter divine ring appeared behind Long Chen, and a terrifying pressure shot out.
Chapter 407 Blooddrinker Shocks All
Buzz…
A three-hundred-meter divine ring appeared behind Long Chen, releasing a terrifying pressure.
“What kind of technique is that?! What powerful pressure!”
“What’s going on? Aren’t only Bone Forging experts capable of compressing their spiritual qi the point of releasing this kind of pressure? Long Chen’s only at the mid Tendon Transformation realm!”
“There’s no Dao-charm surrounding him, so he isn’t even a Favored. How can he be so strong? What kind of monster is he?”
At this moment, Long Chen was standing there with a blood-colored saber resting on his shoulder, his aura surging tumultuously, his black hair dancing. He looked like a devil god who had descended to the world.
“Last time I said that you were a slut. However, I still underestimated your sluttiness. Step by step, you’ve forced me into being mortal enemies with you. Well fine, let me tell you your wish is fulfilled now. From today onwards, I officially declare war on all of you. If you want to kill me, then come. But to declare war requires a bit of ceremony, and so I think I’ll use your blood to bear witness to everything.”
Long Chen’s disdainful voice seemed to come from the nine heavens. It was a voice filled with endless killing intent that shook the land.
Suddenly, the blood-colored saber in his hand rumbled, and a fierce aura surged out.
“Your name is Blooddrinker. Starting today, you’ll be fighting side by side with me. I’ll let you drink as much of this world’s evil people’s blood as you want.”
Following Long Chen’s words, that blood-colored saber seemed to come to life, and a terrifying pressure shot out, blowing away all the clouds, and causing heaven and earth to change color.
“What? It’s a Xiantian weapon!”
“Yes, only a Xiantian weapon could release this kind of terrifying pressure.”
“So his pressure was actually coming from his weapon. He’s just relying on a weapon advantage.”
Xiantian weapons had runes that could only be activated by those who had reached the Xiantian realm and could use Xiantian power. That would allow them to release a mountain-crushing power.
These weapons could only release their true power in the hands of a Xiantian expert. Before reaching that level, holding one of them was just used to scare away cowards. There was no way to release their full power.
“Hmph, just a scare tactic. What an idiot; does he think just a Xiantian weapon could intimidate me? Don’t make me laugh to death. Just watch. This weapon will quickly change owners,” sneered a disciple from the first monastery.
There were quite a few disciples here that were from the monastery. They were mostly from monasteries that were subordinate to the first monastery.
Now seeing Long Chen, a disciple from the last place monastery, possessing a Xiantian weapon, their eyes all turned red from envy.
It went without saying that he had definitely obtained it from someplace within the Jiuli secret realm. There was no way anyone would gift such a precious weapon to a Houtian disciple to use.
“All you can do is activate its pressure, but you can’t activate its real abilities. This is just a scare tactic. But thank you for that gift, as that blood-colored saber has taken my fancy!”
Han Tianfeng laughed icily and endless greed appeared in his eyes. Even he didn’t have the qualifications to obtain a Xiantian weapon.
“Time for you to die! Falling Leaves, Flying Stars, Heaven and Earth Encompassing Net!”
A rune appeared on Han Tianfeng’s forehead, and his combat strength immediately reached its peak. He was not patient enough to wait any longer, and he wanted to kill Long Chen instantly to snatch away his saber.
Sword-images descended from the sky, destroying the void as they stabbed at Long Chen.
Long Chen snorted, seemingly looking down on the sky full of sword-images as he swung out his saber. This was an extremely simple swing without any technique.
BOOM!!! The sword-images all vanished, and Han Tianfeng was knocked back, completely shocked.
“Flashy, but useless.” Long Chen smiled coldly. That kind of technique was just child’s play. How could true experts really care about his illusory images and be duped by such a weak trick? “I really dislike this kind of never-changing poser show.”
Long Chen stepped forward, crossing three hundred meters with a single step, appearing like a phantom as he arrived right in front of Han Tianfeng. His saber fell.
This was also a simple and direct swing, without the slightest fanciness. But the pressure from the saber as well as Long Chen’s killing intent had completely locked down Han Tianfeng.
Han Tianfeng’s hair stood on end, and he used his full strength to resist. But Long Chen’s saber seemed as heavy as a mountain, and with an explosive sound, Han Tianfeng was once more blown back.
“Heavens, Han Tianfeng is injured!” People let out startled cries. Fresh blood was slowly dripping off Han Tianfeng’s sword from his hand
“The webbing of his hand was broken by Long Chen’s saber! But then, just how powerful was Long Chen’s attack? Even after tempering two arm bones, Han Tianfeng was unable to receive it!”
Previously, none of them had sensed anything from their fighting. After all, they hadn’t used Battle Skills, and everything had happened too quickly.
But now the webbing of Han Tianfeng’s hand was broken. They all finally understood that Long Chen’s strength had reached a level they couldn’t even imagine.
Just as everyone was filled with shock, Long Chen once more stepped forward, slashing out with his saber.
“Attack together! His saber is shockingly heavy!” Han Tianfeng’s arrogance disappeared and he was now very cautious, not daring to face Long Chen’s saber head-on. He retreated, joining hands with Yin Wushuang.
“DIE!” Long Chen roared, killing intent filling heaven and earth, attacking the two of them.
There was no way to reason with people like them. The most effective way of communicating with them was to kill them.
As
long as he killed enough so that they felt pain, as long as he killed enough so that they felt terror, they would finally realize what respect and reverence were. Otherwise, if trash like them continued to surround you, then if they weren’t able to kill you, they would kill the people by your side, causing you to feel enough pain as to want to die.
Long Chen repeatedly swung his saber at the two of them. He seemed to be just hacking it around randomly like someone who didn’t even understand cultivation. Each of his attacks was full of mistakes.
And yet, each attack contained endless killing intent as well as a fearless will. Although there were countless openings, if a person wanted to take advantage of those openings, they would also be hacked to death by his saber.
His saber continuously collided with the two of their swords, emitting loud explosions. What shocked everyone was that despite joining hands, Han Tianfeng and Yin Wushuang were forced to repeatedly retreat by Long Chen. Dust began to fill the air.
“Isn’t Long Chen a bit too strong?”
Everyone was stunned. Just who was Han Tianfeng? He was the brother of the Righteous path’s number one expert, and his talent was only slightly lower than his brother’s. He was also on the level of a peak expert.
As for Yin Wushuang, she wasn’t inferior to Han Tianfeng at all. Coming from an ancient family, she possessed a bloodline that would suppress anyone from the same realm. Most people didn’t even have the courage to exchange blows with her.
But the two of them were unable to even retaliate against Long Chen.
“Tempered bone energy!” Seeing that they were repeatedly forced to miserably retreat in the face of Long Chen’s attack, Yin Wushuang and Han Tianfeng both clenched their teeth. A light blossomed from their right arms, and a powerful aura violently surged out.
BOOM! Yin Wushuang and Han Tianfeng’s swords locked onto Long Chen’s saber. Long Chen’s tempest-like attacks were finally stopped.
“Long Chen, did you really think the Bone Forging realm was so weak? You’re too naive!” Han Tianfeng clenched his teeth as his sword tightly locked down Long Chen’s saber.
Although he said Long Chen was naive, he was actually absolutely shocked. Long Chen’s combat strength had far surpassed his expectations. He had no choice but to tap into the energy within his tempered bones.
Ordinarily, that tempered bone energy was something only those who had reached the four-temper Bone Forging realm could use. That was because only those who had tempered four bones or more could allow their bones to gain the ability to store energy.
Generally, they would slowly accumulate a large amount of spiritual qi within their tempered bones. Through constant nourishment and compression, once that energy was released, they would be able to explode with incredible power.
“Hmph, Han Tianfeng and Yin Wushuang have finally tapped into their tempered bone energy. Hehe, Long Chen’s death has come.” One of the first monastery’s disciples boasted confidently.
However, when other people heard that, their mouths twitched. They didn’t dare easily declare their position anymore.
“Naive?”
Long Chen mocked, “Back when I was at Blood Condensation, I already possessed the power to fight against the eight-temper Bone Forging realm. Your little power is nothing more than a fart to me.”
BOOM!
Long Chen’s divine ring trembled intensely and surprisingly began to slowly rotate. Endless energy from heaven and earth poured into Long Chen’s body. The power behind his saber sharply increased.
After testing them out for a while, Long Chen had already figured out their battle rhythms. He no longer held back, and his full strength exploded out.
A saber clashed heavily onto two swords. The ground beneath their feet was finally unable to bear that terrifying force and was broken into pieces. The three of them began to sink from people’s lines of sight.
BOOM!
Han Tianfeng and Yin Wushuang were finally unable to endure it. Long Chen’s limitless strength sent them flying.
“Die!” Long Chen stamped on the ground, arriving in front of the two of them, slashing out with his saber.
Their panicked defense was immediately broken. They were once more sent flying, dust filling the air. Both of them vomited blood that splashed through the air.
Those distant spectators all let out startled cries, never having imagined that the two of them would be defeated so quickly even after releasing their full power.
A blood-colored light soared, cutting apart heaven and earth, looking like a bloody river as it slashed down mercilessly on the two of them.
Although they did their best to dodge, they didn’t have that ability. Yin Wushuang’s arm was slashed off by that terrifying Saber Qi, instantly turning into a bloody mist.
She let out a mournful shriek. That strike had not only destroyed her arm, but it had also heavily shaken her internal organs.
As for Han Tianfeng, he also didn’t have the ability to dodge. The Saber Qi crushed his leg, causing him to scream.
Even after attacking, Long Chen didn’t pause. He was like a demon, appearing right in front of Yin Wushuang, his saber slashing toward her neck.
Chapter 408 Beheading Han Tianfeng
Long Chen’s saber didn’t pause at all as he slashed it towards Yin Wushuang’s neck.
However, the scene of her head flying didn’t appear. His saber ended up hitting nothing but air.
“Teleportation talisman!” Long Chen was filled with regret. He had actually forgotten about this thing, allowing that woman to escape again.
But since Yin Wushuang had once more used a teleportation talisman to escape, Long Chen didn’t waste any time crying about it. He directly went to attack Han Tianfeng.
“Long Chen, just wait! I’ll tear your body apart and play all your women to death! Haha, just wait!” Han Tianfeng also took out a teleportation talisman, his eyes filled with rancor. “You won’t be able to kill-”
Han Tianfeng had just been about to crush the talisman when a wave of Spiritual Strength surged over. He suddenly found he was unable to crush the talisman. An instant later, Long Chen’s saber had already cut off his arm.
Before he could even scream, his saber was pressed against his throat. That icy blade made it so Han Tianfeng didn’t dare say a single word as he was filled with terror.
The entire crowd was silent.
“Long Chen, I don’t believe that you dare to kill me.” Even with a blade pressed against his throat, Han Tianfeng still acted high and haughty. He hoped he could use his powerful background to intimidate Long Chen. Otherwise, he really would die today.
“You’ll believe it in a bit.”
Long Chen turned to look at those distant spectators. A portion of these people were monastery disciples, and Long Chen also saw several wearing the first monastery’s robes.
He said to them, “I know there are quite a few of you using photographic jades to record all this. Right now, I’ll give you a good opportunity. Properly prepare your photographic jades to record this next moment, because this next moment will be very precious!”
Long Chen’s words caused everyone’s expressions to change, as they all knew what he was planning on doing. He was about to kill Han Tianfeng in front of all of them.
If Long Chen killed Han Tianfeng, then that was equivalent to provoking an enormous disaster. He would have to face Han Tianyu’s wrath.
“You dare, Long Chen?!” Han Tianfeng was startled and infuriated.
“Correct, I really do dare.” Long Chen nodded, approving his viewpoint.
“You… if you kill me, you also won’t be able to live! No one will be able to protect you!” Han Tianfeng sharply cried. He was now afraid, truly afraid.
“Haha, you don’t need to worry about whether or not I’ll be able to live. Just go to the otherworld and properly repent.” Long Chen’s voice sounded like the summoning of a death god.
“No, no… Long Chen, don’t kill me… we… we can disc
uss this!” Han Tianfeng sensed Long Chen had truly set his heart on killing him.
“Discuss this? As soon as we entered the secret realm, you all tried to entrap me, smearing my name, wanting to destroy my reputation. Did you ever come to find me to discuss this?
“After entrapping me, you then sent out proclamations, painting me as a heinous criminal. Then using the image of justice warriors, you came to try and kill me, all in order to raise your own glory. Did you ever come to find me to discuss this?
“When you failed to kill me, you shamelessly put your targets on the people by my side, slaughtering the weak, all to make me feel endless pain. Did you ever come to find me to discuss this?”
With each word he spoke, Long Chen’s voice became clearer. With each word he spoke, his voice filled with more emotion. By the end, his voice was full of endless hatred, and it had become a heaven-shaking roar that caused even the void to shudder.
Even those distant spectators felt that Long Chen seemed like an angry lion. His fury could ignite the dome of the sky, and no one could possibly calm that fury.
“Now that your life is in my hands, you still have the face to want to discuss things with me? If you had just targeted me, then there would still be room for discussion. But when you extended your hands towards the people beside me, then that means no rest until death!”
“No rest until death… no rest until death… no rest until death…” Those four words continued to echo throughout the mountains, shaking people’s ears. The killing intent contained within those words caused people’s hearts to tremble with fear.
“Han Tianyu, I know you’ll see this video. Don’t think that by hiding behind others, I don’t know what you’ve done. Don’t you want to play with me? Now I finally have time to accompany you. For now, I’ll first accept your brother’s head. Next time I’ll accept Yin Wushuang’s head, and if you dare try to stop me, then I’ll also cut off your head.”
“Nooo-!” Han Tianfeng’s scream was cut short by a blood-colored saber. His head flew into the air.
