“Torrential Rain Killing Formation!” Crushing the talisman, space trembled intensely as a rain of arrows condensed in the sky.
These were translucent arrows formed from spiritual qi. Each arrow had runes curled around it and emitted a terrifying pressure. This was an offensive talisman with a similar power to the defensive talisman he had used previously.
Long Chen was instantly surrounded by millions of arrows. But he still didn’t have an expression on his face. Raising Blooddrinker, he spun through the air, releasing waves of saber-images.
BOOM BOOM BOOM…!
Each arrow caused a powerful explosion. Waves of qi surged out, crushing apart boulders and causing space to quiver.
Each one of those arrows had contained power equivalent to the attack of a pinnacle expert like Han Tianyu. This powerful rumbling dazzled everyone.
Suddenly, with a final explosion, a saber-image tore through the final arrows and struck the mustached man, making him vomit a mouthful of blood.
Before he could do anything else, an icy saber stabbed straight through his chest.
Long Chen raised his saber, and the mustached man’s feet left the ground as he was suspended in the air. Looking at the saber piercing his chest, his eyes were filled with terror.
“Don’t kill me! I don’t want to die! Please!” The mustached man actually began to beg loudly. In the face of death, no matter how arrogant a person was on the outside, it was unable to conceal their inner heart’s cowardice.
“You don’t want to die?”
Long Chen furiously roared, “You don’t want to die?! Then tell me, who wants to die?! When you massacred us, did you ever think of other people’s feelings? You cowards who only know how to bully the weak, you can all die now!”
His saber shook, and without giving the mustached man any chance to reply, a terrifying force blew him apart. Another peak expert died.
“KILL!”
Long Chen suddenly roared. Even after killing those two, his killing intent hadn’t lessened at all. Instead, it increased even further.
Long Chen had been suppressing himself for too long. Now that he finally let himself loose, he had a desire to slaughter every person beneath the heavens.
Previously, Long Chen had always suppressed that desire. That was because he was afraid he would one day truly become a madman who only knew how to slaughter.
But now, he realized he was wrong, and very wrong at that. Only after merging with that bead did Long Chen realize just how excessively wrong he was.
Once that bead had merged with him, the words ‘primal chaos bead’ had appeared in his mind. Obviously, that must be its name.
Many things had appeared in Long Chen’s mind just now. However, he had no time to absorb them, and they were gradually fading. But he had realized a certain mistake of his.
He should never have suppressed his desire for slaughter. That was in direct violation of the true essence of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art.
The meaning of Hegemon in the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art referred to being domineering, to advance in the face of all obstacles, to rather break than bend, to rather die than submit. When you ran into danger, you had to smash it head-on with a single fist.
Long Chen had been raised in the secular world, and he had walked up to his current level step by step. When it came to background, he was far, far too lacking in comparison to his powerful enemies.
That was why he had never wanted to make so many powerful enemies. He had hoped to give himself enough time to peacefully grow. However, this thinking was completely mistaken. The Nine Star Hegemon Body Art was not trained in that manner. If you wanted to become a supreme hegemon, then you needed to be completely domineering, and to be domineering required you to never lower your head to anyone.
When he thought of that, Long Chen was filled with regret. His conservativeness and cowardice had finally resulted in a painful consequence. Lu Fang-er and Ye Zhiqiu had both died. That was also what had allowed him to see the truth.
Now, Long Chen’s killing intent was surging wildly. A huge saber-image grew out of his saber and attacked the experts around him.
Heads flew and flesh exploded. Anyone within Long Chen’s range was killed. It was incredibly bloody.
“Long Chen!” Chu Yao couldn’t help shedding tears as she watched Long Chen charge into a crowd of enemies on his own, crazily slaughtering.
Chu Yao was the one who understood Long Chen the best. Even though he was slaughtering so many, his fury wasn’t lessening. Instead, he was becoming more and more furious. She couldn’t help worrying that Long Chen might become bedeviled.
“Work together! We don’t need to be afraid. There’s no way he can keep this up for long!” shouted Huo Wufang.
But his order didn’t have any effect. The current Long Chen was like a bloodthirsty devil king, someone no one could block. Everyone from both the Righteous and Corrupt paths was completely terrified of him. Who would dare go block him?
“Run!”
It was unknown which Righteous disciple decided to let out this terrified screech. But it immediately broke any remaining courage people had, and they all began to flee.
It wasn’t just the Righteous disciples who fled. Even the Corrupt disciples had given up on fighting.
“Brothers, it’s time to get revenge! Our brothers’ blood can’t be spilled for nothing! Kill!” roared Mo Nian. He took the lead, shooting out countless arrows.
Previously, he had been completely entangled with the other experts from Qing Prefecture. Now that they were fleeing in terror, two of them were instantly killed with a single arrow.
“Kill! Get revenge for our dead brothers!” Zheng Wenlong also shouted. The Huayun Sect had also suffered quite a few casualties, and he was filled with fury. This had been extremely different from his expectations, and his killing intent was also soaring. He chased after them with a sword.
“Kill! We have to get revenge for Ye Zhiqiu and Lu Fang-er!” Meng Qi, Chu Yao, and Tang Wan-er wiped away their tears. Clenching their teeth, they chased after everyone.
Long Chen was killing experts continuously. He suddenly raised his head and saw that Feng Xiao-zi was panicking and had summoned out his crow, preparing to flee.
His killing intent immediately locked onto him. It could be said that the main culprit for their heavy losses was Feng Xiao-zi.
If he hadn’t entangled Meng Qi, then with Meng Qi’s powerful soul energy, many of those experts would have been too intimidated to participate.
It could also be said that he was a main culprit in the deaths of Lu Fang-er and Ye Zhiqiu. Long Chen’s killing intent exploded to unprecedented levels. Seeing Feng Xiao-zi was about to flee, he raised his left hand.
During his previous seclusion time, Long Chen had not just been increasing his cultivation base. He had also solidified his mastery of his Battle Skills.
Other than that combined technique with Little Snow, he had also been experimenting with his thunderforce. His thunderforce was gathered from the nine heavens’ tribulation lightning, and that was this world’s strongest lightning.
However, the Thunderization Art that he cultivated in was too low-grade. It could only control ordinary thunderforce. When it came to controlling tribulation thunderforce, it was far from enough.
Long Chen could only experiment with it on his own to find the most effective way to use his thunderforce. At this moment, Long Chen had raised his left hand and pointed his finger at the crow Feng Xiao-zi was on.
“Lightning Finger.”
A violet bolt of lightning shot out of his finger and almost instantly struck the crow.
Thunder rumbled. The lightning bolt was like a spear, piercing straight through the Magical Beast. Terrifying thunderforce instantly killed it.
Even Feng Xiao-zi was impacted and his body turned numb. He began to fall to the ground with the crow.
Long Chen sprang into action, and he quickly appeared in front of Feng Xiao-zi while he was sti
ll in midair. As for Feng Xiao-zi, his entire body was numb, and seeing Long Chen suddenly appear in front of him, his soul almost fled his body in fright.
With a light slash of his saber, Feng Xiao-zi’s body was cut off at his elbows. His cut-up body collapsed on the ground. Feng Xiao-zi let out a cry of despair.
Long Chen’s attack had really been too vicious. He had cut him off at the elbows, meaning he wouldn’t die immediately. Perhaps if a Xiantian expert was present, he might be able to save him.
But there were none present, so Feng Xiao-zi was filled with despair. He could only slowly wait for death to take him. That was a cruel torment. Without his arms, he didn’t even have the ability to kill himself.
Long Chen cut off one of Feng Xiao-zi’s fingers and took off its ring. That ring contained the tiger’s corpse, and within that corpse was the golden page.
With a flick of his hand, that spatial ring flew straight to the distant Meng Qi, who caught it.
After handling Feng Xiao-zi, Long Chen’s gaze swept over the battlefield. He immediately noticed a terrified Huo Wufang who was hiding within the crowd.
“Huo Wufang, hand over your life!”
Chapter 463 I’ll Teach You What Pain Is
“Huo Wufang, hand over your life!” Long Chen sprang forward, charging at Huo Wufang.
Huo Wufang’s expression completely changed. Long Chen was absolutely massacring everyone, and no one had been able to stop him. Right now, Huo Wufang had already changed his clothes and was hiding within the crowd. He hadn’t expected Long Chen to find him with a single glance.
But in truth, it had to be said that Huo Wufang’s method was completely foolish, and just deceiving himself. As a pill cultivator with powerful Spiritual Strength, Long Chen was extremely sensitive to his flame energy.
Now that Long Chen had already locked onto him, Huo Wufang felt as if he had been dropped into an icehouse. Even his bones turned cold, and his hair stood on end.
Now he really did regret it. He had never imagined that the situation would develop to this point. If he had known earlier, then no matter what, he wouldn’t have dared set himself against Long Chen.
At this time, Long Chen had already killed three pinnacle experts: Xue Wuya, the mustached man, and Feng Xiao-zi. He was practically possessed by a killing god, completely unblockable. Whoever tried to stop him would die.
Of the pinnacle experts, only he, Han Tianyu, and Yin Luo were still alive. But the three of them could all tell that even if they joined hands, they wouldn’t be able to stop the current Long Chen. So, they were all fleeing.
They all wanted to see just who Long Chen would target. That was a gamble on whoever’s luck was the most lacking. They were all waiting for a certain thing that was on the verge of occurring. Now they were in a race against time.
Seeing Long Chen target him instead of Han Tianyu or Yin Luo, Huo Wufang couldn’t help cursing his bad luck.
But in truth, it seemed he had forgotten. The one who had caused this huge battle had been solely him. If it hadn’t been for him, Long Chen could have simply killed Han Tianyu and Yin Luo, and this matter would have been over.
It was only because Huo Wufang had used his Pill Tower status to interfere that Long Chen had become the enemy of the Righteous and Corrupt paths. If Long Chen didn’t target him, then that really wouldn’t have made sense.
He knew he wouldn’t be able to get away from Long Chen’s phantom-like movement technique. Seeing Long Chen come straight for him, he erupted with his greatest possible power.
“Blazing Dragon Kill!” All his Pill Flame gathered in his two hands, forming two huge flame dragons.
Countless runes flickered atop those huge dragons. Those were his core runes, something that could push his attack power to its peak.
In fact, this one attack contained over half his core runes. Once this attack was over, it would require at least a year for him to recover from the loss. During that year, he wouldn’t even be able to cultivate. Furthermore, at his age, this was his golden period for cultivation, and to waste a year was an irrecoverable loss.
However, there was no way around it. In order to keep himself alive, he could only use up everything he had. He knew that Long Chen’s Pill Flame energy had been used up, and so this attack should have an eighty percent chance of heavily injuring him.
As long as he heavily injured him, he knew that Han Tianyu and Yin Luo would immediately come kill him.
“Split the Heavens!”
Suddenly, Long Chen shouted, and a saber-image soared into the sky, seeming like a heavenly blade as it slashed down on those two flame dragons.
BOOM!
Huo Wufang was horrified to see that even after sacrificing over half his core runes to power his strongest attack, his dragons were instantly crushed.
Furthermore, those flame dragons were connected to his mind, and when they were destroyed, he vomited blood, intense pain wracking his soul.
When he recovered, he realized Long Chen was already standing in front of him. The two were less than a foot apart.
Huo Wufang was horrified. It felt as if he was staring the Grim Reaper in the face. He instinctively punched out.
Long Chen caught his fist with a single palm. Huo Wufang tried to pull it back, but he was powerless. He hastily kicked his leg at Long Chen’s abdomen. That was normally an extremely practical attack.
However, he only got his kick halfway when he let out a mournful scream. The arm that Long Chen had caught had been torn off at his shoulder. Blood splattered, appearing extremely frightening.
Crack…
Furthermore, his kick was stopped by Long Chen’s foot. With some light pressure, Huo Wufang’s knee broke and his leg bent at an odd angle.
“AHH!”
Compared to the pain of his lost arm, Long Chen’s kick had caused him much more pain. Long Chen’s foot had contained some bizarre energy that was crazily targeting his pain nerves.
Huo Wufang was in so much pain that the veins on his head bulged, looking like they might explode at any moment. He rolled back and forth on the ground.
“Does it hurt? No, this can’t count as pain. True pain is something an idiot like you cannot comprehend. It seems I can only help teach you what level of pain you’ve caused others.” Sorrow flashed in Long Chen’s eyes, and his foot stamped down on Huo Wufang’s body.
Crack.
Crack.
Crack.
Long Chen’s foot came down dozens of times on different joints. In the beginning, Huo Wufang’s screams were exceptionally mournful, but afterward, he became silent.
That was because it was already too painful for him to scream. He had to use all his strength just to resist the pain. That wasn’t even voluntary, but an instinctual reaction of his body.
According to his current level of pain, Huo Wufang’s body should have immediately shut down and allowed him to pass out.
But unfortunately, such a blessing never came to him. The first thing Long Chen had done was sever certain nerves to make sure he couldn’t faint. Now, Huo Wufang could only silently endure that hell-like pain.
However, no matter how much pain he was in, it was just physical pain. Could it even compare to the pain Long Chen felt inside?
Seeing a spatial ring on his finger, Long Chen just directly took it away.
Then after hesitating for a moment, he took out a medicinal pill and stuffed it down Huo Wufang’s mouth. He used a slap in the face to help him swallow it.
Only after doing that did Long Chen nod with satisfaction. Such a person had to suffer endless pain for the rest of his life. Killing him like this was letting him off too easy.
After finishing this, Long Chen saw that Mo Nian and the others were crazily slaughtering their enemies as they fled. Now was the time for revenge.
Then turning around, he saw the distant Han Tianyu and Yin Luo. The two of them were a hundred miles from each other and were fleeing in two different directions. After hesitating for just a
moment, Long Chen went straight for Yin Luo.
Rumble…
He had only just moved when heaven and earth began to shake. A huge ripple appeared in the air, and a vast spatial door slowly appeared.
“Haha, time’s up!”
Yin Luo, Han Tianyu, and all the others celebrated. They hastily activated the tablets on their waists. The spatial door shot out lights that enveloped them.
“Boss, first kill that bitch Yin Wushuang! She’s about to run!” Guo Ran called out when he saw Yin Wushuang was already enveloped by light.
Everyone already hated Yin Wushuang to the core. If they let her run, they would be so depressed that they might just kill themselves.
Long Chen heard Guo Ran, but he still went straight for Yin Luo. To teleport away required a certain amount of time. He wanted to cut down Yin Luo as soon as possible.
“Hahaha, Long Chen, you aren’t able to kill me!” Yin Luo suddenly laughed loudly.
A tortoise shell appeared in front of him. It was jade-like and crystalline. Runes covered it densely, and it completely protected Yin Luo.
“Crystal bone!”
Long Chen’s pupils shrunk. He really hadn’t imagined that Yin Luo would have also found a crystal bone. Furthermore, it was a defensive crystal bone. He had actually been hiding such a powerful life-preserving trump card.
His expression became a bit ugly. He was well aware of a crystal bone’s power. As a defensive crystal bone, its defensive prowess was incredible.
Although Yin Luo’s cultivation base was limited and he was unable to use its full power, it would be enough to block at least one of his full power attacks.
All Yin Luo needed was to block that one attack. That would be enough for him to leave the Jiuli secret realm.
“Yin Luo, you should stay behind!”
Mo Nian’s voice rang out. At this time, a pitch-black arrow was nocked on his bow. It emitted a powerful pressure, seeming like the tongue of a poisonous viper that might take a person’s life at any moment.
Furthermore, all Mo Nian’s spiritual qi was pouring into this bone arrow. Its runes lit up, causing heaven and earth to rumble.
