  “Are you joking? They’re still just in the process of probing each other. Furthermore, boss’s power surpasses your imagination. Just watch,” replied Guo Ran.

  That flame leopard’s power was absolutely shocking. Each one of its blows could shatter mountains. Watching this, the disciples all had to admire the power of a core disciple. Any of these attacks could easily kill them.

  But despite what Guo Ran said, they were worried to see Long Chen repeatedly being forced back.

  People all had sympathy for the weak, and in their eyes, they had long since labelled Long Chen the weak one. The women were especially sympathetic. Although Long Chen wasn’t especially handsome, red flowers always needed green leaves to set themselves off. Compared to Que Xinyan who arrogantly looked down upon everyone else, Long Chen appeared exceptionally handsome and moving.

  The majority of the disciples here hadn’t participated in the inner sect trial and didn’t know what had happened. But just from the words between the two of them, they knew Long Chen was getting revenge for people who had died because of Que Xinyan. That made them feel even more sympathetic.

  “You can do it, Long Chen!” cried a woman in the crowd suddenly.

  “What the fuck? How am I supposed to live like this?” Guo Ran was dumbfounded. When did his boss’s charisma grow to this level? When he was a poser, he had people worship him, and when he wasn’t a poser, people sympathized with him? Why was it that he didn’t have the same luck?

  With one person taking the lead, quite a few people began to cheer for Long Chen, with the majority of them being women.

  Tang Wan-er couldn’t help but laugh. Did that scoundrel really possess this much charisma? Why was it that she had never managed to see such a thing?

  “Stop shouting, you’re annoying! The ones inside can’t hear the sounds from outside!” roared Han Yunshan. Seeing so many people sympathizing with Long Chen, he was infuriated.

  Han Yunshan truly did lack brains. He didn’t even understand the simple rule that he shouldn’t roar at women, especially not a group of women.

  “How could you be so coarse? If we want to cheer, we’ll cheer. What does it have to do with you?”

  “Exactly, if you don’t want to listen, then don’t listen. By shouting even louder, aren’t you just being more annoying?”

  “Hmph, I can tell you’re a bad person with just a look. You’re definitely jealous of him.”

  Quite a few people hadn’t even been cheering at first, but because of Han Yunshan’s roar, they joined in just to irritate him.

  “You damn slu-”

  Han Yunshan suddenly felt an icy killing intent lock onto him, and all his hair stood on end. Everyone looked at him oddly.

  “Continue.” Hua Shiyu looked indifferently at Han Yunshan.

  A drop of sweat dripped off Han Yunshan’s forehead and onto the ground. He felt like his back had been drenched in sweat in an instant.

  He had almost forgotten there was a terrifying fiend near him. Wei Changhai had almost lost his life because of his mouth.

  If he committed a second violation, he didn’t know if there would even be a Han Yunshan in this world any longer.

  Han Yunshan shut his mouth, refusing to say a word. Even his lower mouth was clenched tight, as he was afraid the slightest fart might end his life.

  Seeing this, the flower petals around Hua Shiyu slowly faded and she continued looking at the martial stage.

  At this time, Long Chen had been forced into a corner by the flame leopard. It roared and launched a claw at him. This time, there was nowhere to dodge.

  BOOM!

  The huge claw landed on the martial stage. Quite a few people jumped, thinking Long Chen had been crushed.

  “What speed!” cried someone suddenly. At some unknown point, Long Chen had appeared in the air and launched a vicious kick at the flame leopard’s head.

  The flame leopard smashed into the barrier and then rebounded back.

  It let out a furious roar and released a flame sphere that shot toward Long Chen. It was huge, and Long Chen didn’t even have a chance to dodge before he was struck.

  Startled cries rang out from the disciples. This had happened too suddenly. Had Long Chen only just launched a counterattack before being killed?

  A dragon’s cry rang out. A ten-mile flame dragon appeared and smashed apart the flame sphere with its tail.

  Long Chen was surrounded by flickering lightning as he floated in the air. The huge flame dragon circled around him, and a powerful aura began to rise. That was a kind of formless energy that caused the Dragonblood warriors to burst into cheers.

  “Boss is finally getting serious!”

  This aura was something the Dragonblood warriors were familiar with. It meant that Long Chen’s warm up was finished and the true battle was about to start.

  When this aura permeated through the barrier, the Hall Masters’ expressions changed.

  “This will… he walks the Undefeatable Dao!”

  This aura was too clear for them. It was incomparably arrogant and domineering. Only an expert who had never once tasted defeat could possess such a thing. The disciples didn’t understand what this aura signified, but it made them tremble.

  “You’re finally willing to bring out your rations to feed my Earth Flame Beast?” sneered Que Xinyan.

  “Yes, but I’m worried your Earth Flame Beast doesn’t have the stomach for it.”

  Long Chen extended another hand. His arm shook and another dragon cry rang out. Another ten-mile dragon appeared, this one formed of lightning.

  Chapter 1033 The True Power of Being Merged with Heaven and Earth

  The two dragons coiled around each other, their dragon cries shaking the sky. Blazing light came from them that dazzled the people outside.

  “How domineering!”

  Long Chen was like a god as he stood in the midst of those two dragons. The disciples outside had seen countless experts, but they had never seen someone who appeared so domineering.

  Long Chen’s domineeringness was not an external appearance, but something that came from his bones. It usually didn’t reveal itself, but when he began to fight for real, it would unconsciously awaken.

  It wasn’t even something that Long Chen did on purpose. It was a sign of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art and impossible to hide.

  When Long Chen circulated the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, that wild, domineering aura would spread. That was an aura that refused to be one with heaven and earth.

  The Central Plains’ disciples had never seen such a thing, but the Dragonblood warriors were familiar with the sight, and their blood began to boil. The sight of Long Chen standing in the air with the two brilliant dragons around him also possessed a special effect on the women who were still in the springtime of their youth.

  “How handsome!” One of the Heaven Female Alliance’s maidens involuntarily clenched her hands in front of her, looking worshipfully at that figure on the martial stage.

  “What’s so handsome about a stinky man? You’re not allowed to worship him,” ordered Hua Shiyu coldly. But even as she said this, she had to admit that Long Chen’s current appearance was worth a second look.

  “You think that summoning two little pieces of crap will allow you to fight against me? Your flame dragon will be my beast’s food!” Que Xinyan had absolute confidence in his Earth Flame Beast.

  “Show him just who is the food,” ordered Long Chen. Huo Long and Lei Long both roared and charged at Que Xinyan’s flame beast.

  “Devour them!” Que Xinyan also gave his flame beast an order. The flame leopard roared and pounced.

  Originally, the flame and lightning dragons had been flying separately. But on the way, they suddenly coiled around each other, forming a flame and lightning twister.

  BOOM!

  Flames and lightning erupted, instantly filling the entire barrier. The disciples outside were unable to see the situation inside any longer as all they saw was chaos.

&nbs
p; But even standing outside, they could feel the ground constantly shaking.

  “What’s going on inside?!” cried some of the disciples.

  The Elder Hall Master muttered to himself and slowly extended his hands. Forming three hand seals, the martial stage and the barrier began to rapidly expand.

  The disciples cried out in shock and hastily fell back. In just a few breaths, the martial stage had grown by ten times. As it expanded, the scene inside grew clearer.

  They saw a lightning and flame dragon fighting intensely against a flame leopard. Each time their huge bodies collided, it would cause the ground to shake. It was an incredibly crazy and fierce fight that shocked all of them.

  Que Xinyan hadn’t expected that Long Chen’s flame and lightning dragons would be able to contend evenly with his Earth Flame Beast. For the moment, there was no way to determine victory or defeat.

  That was completely different from the result he had imagined. He thought that Long Chen’s flame dragon wouldn’t have had time to completely refine his first Earth Flame yet.

  And even if it had, its power would only barely be able to match the Heart Rending Salamander Flame. It definitely would not surpass it. That was because Long Chen’s flame dragon’s power had been weaker. Even after devouring it, its power would not surpass the Heart Rending Salamander Flame.

  As for the current Earth Flame Beast, it was ranked eighty-fifth, and it was much, much stronger than the Heart Rending Salamander Flame. It would be able to easily devour it.

  He had always been hesitating about whether or not he should allow his Heavenly Net Earth Core Blaze to devour his Heart Rending Salamander Flame. That would strengthen the Heavenly Net Earth Core Blaze, but he had never been willing to do so as both these Earth Flames had cost him endless sweat and blood to raise. Of course, he had never imagined that one would be devoured by Long Chen.

  So now, Que Xinyan wanted the Heavenly Net Earth Core Blaze to devour Long Chen’s flame dragon. That would be like devouring two Earth Flames for the price of one.

  But then he was startled to find that the flame dragon was stronger than he had imagined. Although its actual power was at most a match for the Heart Rending Salamander Flame, it actually possessed battle tactics and knew how to cooperate with the lightning dragon to attack.

  That was the thing that Que Xinyan found most unbelievable. Although Earth Flames had spirits, their intelligence was extremely limited. Everything they did occurred instinctively, and being able to listen to a few simple orders was the limit.

  But Long Chen’s lightning and flame dragons were extremely smart and knew how to cooperate. It was only through this cooperation that they managed to fight evenly against his flame leopard whose power far surpassed theirs.

  What Que Xinyan didn’t know was that Long Chen’s Earth Flame had been harvested while it had been extremely young and immature. There had been great room for growth and molding, and as a result of Long Chen’s attention and care, it was extremely devoted to him.

  But Que Xinyan’s Earth Flames were different. They had been forcibly subdued with secret arts when they had already been fully mature. They didn’t dare to refuse his orders, but as a result, there were many things that couldn’t be communicated.

  Earth Flames would normally slowly mature in well-hidden regions during their youth. They wouldn’t be easily noticed, and when they dared to go out, they were mostly fully matured. So it was very difficult to find immature Earth Flames.

  Furthermore, Que Xinyan was startled by the lightning dragon. Since it was formed of lightning, it wasn’t afraid of the flame leopard tearing at it. Even if it bit off a piece of its body, all it got were some lightning runes. The flame leopard was unable to devour lightning runes, and those runes would return to the lightning dragon’s body eventually.

  While the lightning dragon was the main fighter, the flame dragon would constantly nip and bite at the flame leopard, occasionally managing to get a bite. Although there was no way for it to immediately digest that energy and strengthen itself, a flame beast that lost its core runes would gradually weaken.

  One or two bites wasn’t a big problem, but if it continued, his flame leopard would only grow weaker, and sooner or later, it would be completely devoured.

  “So the reason you allowed yourself to be entangled with my Earth Flame Beast was to figure out its attack patterns and weaknesses.” Que Xinyan clenched his teeth. He knew he had been schemed against.

  Seeing this situation, it was all too clear. The two dragons were cooperating perfectly, while his flame leopard was unable to strike them. Instead, it was constantly being bitten by the flame dragon, and when it went to attack the flame dragon, the lightning dragon would stop it.

  When the people outside heard this, they finally understood why Long Chen had been forced back repeatedly by the flame leopard. As for when he had kicked away the flame leopard, he must have already figured out all there was to figure out about the flame leopard and hadn’t wanted to waste any more time.

  “Don’t you think saying that now is a bit meaningless? Bring out your full power. This isn’t a game, nor is it the time to be a poser. This is revenge,” said Long Chen.

  “Hahahahaha!” Que Xinyan raised his head and laughed. He was completely infuriated now. Long Chen kept saying he would get revenge on him, and now he was tired of hearing it. Just as he was about to speak…

  Pow!

  A large hand came from a strange angle and struck Que Xinyan while he wasn’t expecting it at all. The huge power behind it sent him flying.

  “This face-slapping art is probably unrivaled beneath the heavens…” sighed the Elder Hall Master.

  All the Hall Masters, other than the Law Enforcement Hall Master, nodded inside. This move of Long Chen’s had already touched upon the realm of a natural Dao.

  From the moment he launched it to the point it struck, it was flawless as if it had been created by the heavens. Even for them, this was the first time seeing such a face-slapping art.

  The disciples that were just watching for fun were startled, but they mostly found it comedic. A grand rank five Celestial was actually slapped in the face.

  “Bastard, I’ll kill you!” roared Que Xinyan. Probably, anyone on his level would be unable to bear being slapped in the face like this. This was the only time he had ever been slapped in the face.

  Five-colored runes erupted, forming chains in the air. The chains were constantly moving like thousands of tentacles.

  It looked like there was a huge, five-colored spider web behind Que Xinyan. But as soon as it appeared, all the disciples’ expressions changed.

  “How is this possible?!”

  They were horrified to find that in that instant, they were unable to sense any Heavenly Dao energy. It was like the world’s Heavenly Dao energy had all been sucked away by Que Xinyan.

  As for Que Xinyan, it was practically possible to see Heavenly Dao energy pouring toward him like hundreds of streams. His aura was crazily climbing.

  “Do you see it? This is the difference. That’s why I said Long Chen has no chance. A Celestial who has reached the realm of merging with heaven and earth can instantly absorb all the Heavenly Dao energy around them for their own use. Unless others have also reached the realm of merging with heaven and earth, they’ll find themselves without any energy. Just how are they supposed to fight?” sighed Hua Shiyu.

  It wasn’t just Zhao Ziyan she was talking to. All the disciples heard it. Over ninety-nine percent of them hadn’t known about this, as they didn’t have the qualifications to know about such a thing.

  Seeing Que Xinyan’s aura rapidly climbing, they felt a profound sense of helplessness. Although they were also Celestials, they were completely suppressed. As for Han Yunshan, Wei Changhai, and Yan Mochen, they finally understood just how great the difference was between them and these monsters.

  “Long Chen, now do you understand the difference between us? A piece of trash like you isn’t even fit to carry my s
hoes! Hurry up and die!” Once Que Xinyan’s aura reached an unprecedented level, raging qi waves continuously poured out of him.

  “All I know is that the difference between us is that one is a person, and the other is an idiot. Today, I’ll let you see just how great the difference between a person and an idiot is! Divine ring!”

  Chapter 1034 Activating his Spirit Blood

  “Divine ring!”

  That cry was like the cry of a god, shaking the world and penetrating people to their cores.

  The four qi seas below the FengFu Star, Alioth Star, Life Fate Star, and Enlightenment Palace Star fully activated, and boundless energy surged within him.

  A red, orange, yellow, and green ring appeared behind him. It caused the void to rumble, and even the barrier of the martial stage began to shake.

  The four-colored, three-thousand-meter divine ring revolved. It seemed to contain the greatest principles of heaven and earth within it, as if it possessed the entire world’s laws. It was sacred and divine.

  This was Long Chen’s first time fully activating the divine ring since arriving in the Central Plains.

  “What kind of technique is this?! Even the barrier is being affected!” The Elder Hall Master was shocked. Long Chen’s divine ring was loosening the barrier.

  This barrier was not an ordinary one. Even Foundation Forging experts wouldn’t necessarily be able to shake it, as it was extremely tough. Those below the Jade Core realm were normally unable to damage it.

  But Long Chen’s divine ring seemed to possess some strange energy that was disturbing the barrier. The Elder Hall Master sank into thought for a moment, and then decided to secretly increase the power of the barrier to make sure it was secure.

  The divine ring was absolutely shocking and drew everyone’s attention. But no one noticed a man standing in the air, calmly looking at the divine ring behind Long Chen.

  That person was the Xuan Master. Even as he stood there, no one was capable of noticing him, not even the Hall Masters.

  Seeing this divine ring, the Xuan Master’s expression finally turned a bit grave, and he was lost in thought.
