  “Kids, your daddy Long has returned. Submit or fight!”

  Long Chen had already charged off at two Soul Transformation experts standing together.

  These two experts came from the same sect, and seeing Long Chen charging at them, they cursed their bad luck inside.

  The other Soul Transformation experts mostly ignored Long Chen. They continued staring at the channel, clearly waiting for Bao Buping and Chang Hao to appear to take their Ancestral items.

  As for those two Soul Transformation experts, they didn’t dare to be careless. Their swords slashed through the air at him.

  But what they hadn’t expected was for Long Chen to suddenly send the cauldron flying over to them.

  BOOM!

  Their Sword Qi was blown apart by the Blazing Dragon Cauldron, and due to how hard Long Chen had thrown it over, its speed only dropped slightly as it continued towards them.

  The two of them were delighted. Long Chen had actually taken the initiative to send them such a good thing. Once they snatched this Ancestral item from him, although they wouldn’t get to keep it, the Pill Tower would definitely have to give them some benefits.

  No matter how strong Long Chen was, it wouldn’t be enough in front of two Soul Transformation experts. His sudden attack with this cauldron posed no threat to them. It was no different from giving it to them.

  The two of them attacked at the same time, unleashing sword-light that once more slashed at the Blazing Dragon Cauldron.

  When their attacks were about to land, the Blazing Dragon Cauldron suddenly rapidly grew, becoming three hundred meters tall.

  “Hmph, does making it bigger do anything? It’s power has already run out.” The two Soul Transformation experts sneered. The Blazing Dragon Cauldron might have grown larger, but its speed had already dropped. In their eyes, Long Chen’s attack had been completely useless.

  As expected, when their attacks landed, the Blazing Dragon Cauldron shuddered and came to a stop. The two of them excitedly reached out to grab it.

  But at the exact moment that they stopped the Blazing Dragon Cauldron, two figures flew out from within it. Two huge sword-images soared into the sky and slashed down.

  “Split the Heavens 4!”

  The two sword-images intersected as they fell. The two Soul Transformation experts instinctively began to prepare their defenses, but they weren’t as quick as Bao Buping and Chang Hao who had been storing up their energy this entire time.

  The two of them had been hiding in the Blazing Dragon Cauldron this entire time just for this moment. And everything went according to plan. Their unexpected attack allowed them to slay those two with even their Yuan Spirits dying.

  “Nice! Good work!” praised Long Chen. The three of them had worked together flawlessly. After succeeding, they immediately turned to flee again.

  “Bastards, keep dreaming! Don’t even think about getting away again!”

  At this time, the four Soul Transformation experts had already gone to block the area in front of the Sovereign Blood Seal, preventing them from getting away.

  “Hahaha, if you are capable of blocking the power of your daddy’s cauldron, go ahead!” Long Chen laughed brazenly and then began to charge over like an elephant, with one hand pushing forward the huge cauldron.

  “Brat, don’t look down on others!” The four Soul Transformation experts were enraged. Did Long Chen really think he could just barge his way through them? He was only a Foundation Forging brat. If they couldn’t even block a Foundation Forging disciple when fully prepared, there would be no need for them to continue living.

  With the Sovereign Blood Seal behind them, they didn’t dare to unleash any huge moves. But working together to block Long Chen’s charge was easy. They had all made their preparations to block him at full power.

  “Divine ring! Battle Armor!” Long Chen shouted, and his divine ring appeared behind, emitting a sacred aura. Four stars appeared in his eyes, and his aura transformed. He suddenly seemed like a devil, looking like he wouldn’t stop no matter what.

  In that instant, the Soul Transformation experts felt a chill in their hearts. They felt like they had been locked onto by a ferocious beast.

  “Get smashed lambkins!” Long Chen smashed the huge Blazing Dragon Cauldron at the four Soul Transformation experts. Even space was compressed as it fell to the point that it was about to explode.

  BOOM!

  The four Soul Transformation experts went all-out blocking, but they were all blown away. One of them had his upper body explode, and even his martial weapon shattered.

  The four of them all hacked up blood. They were all shocked, and runes circulated around them, forcibly stabilizing them.

  “No!” The Soul Transformation expert whose upper body had been smashed apart suddenly let out a terrified cry. He was flying straight towards the stone pillar and couldn’t stop. He panicked and despaired.

  There was no suspense. His body smashed into the stone pillar and instantly exploded into bits. Another Soul Transformation expert was slain.

  At this time, all the Soul Transformation experts were dumbfounded. Previously, they hadn’t placed Long Chen’s group of three in their eyes. In terms of true power, they should have completely suppressed them.

  But now four Soul Transformation experts had worked together but still not been able to stop Long Chen. Although Long Chen had a weapon advantage with his Ancestral item, he wasn’t able to unleash its true power. At most, he only had an advantage in hardness and weight.

  This showed that even without an Ancestral item, Long Chen would be a match for any one of them. Otherwise there wouldn’t have been such a miserable result.

  They were finally shaken. At the Foundation Forging realm, Long Chen was a match for Soul Transformation experts. Their expressions became dull.

  After blowing those four Soul Transformation experts away, Long Chen also received a backlash. He almost coughed up blood, and his hand bled. He was also knocked back from the collision.

  But just at that moment, Bao Buping and Chang Hao extended their hands and pushed him forward. The three of them continued onwards without pause.

  Long Chen put away the Blazing Dragon Cauldron, and the three of them disappeared into the channel to Devil Spirit Mountain.

  The other Soul Transformation experts had tried to stop them, but regretfully, they had just been a little bit too far away.

  “Kids, just wait! Your daddy will definitely come back!” Long Chen’s shout once more rang out, this time with even greater destructive power. All these Soul Transformation experts quivered intensely and coughed up a mouthful of blood at the same time.

  Chapter 1281 How Fucking Vicious

  Long Chen’s group of three had only just entered the channel when they collapsed on the ground and began to crazily pant. After consecutive intense battles, they were dog-tired. The only difference was that they didn’t have their tongues lolling out.

  “Fuck… so addicting… and satisfying!” Bao Buping could barely breathe, but he still gave Long Chen a thumbs-up through his panting.

  Even in that kind of situation, they had slain three Soul Transformation experts. This sense of accomplishment made him feel like he was about to start floating. When they returned to the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect, he could brag for a lifetime. Who would dare to go against him?

  But after so many battles, especially that last one, they had used up all their energy and needed to rest.

  After an incense stick’s worth of time, they slowly got up. Bao Buping said, “It looks like our efficiency is dropping. The first time, we killed thirteen of them before running. The second time we got six, and this time we only got three.”

  “Don’t be so greedy. Those are Soul Transformation experts, not chickens. We only killed so many the first time because they were stupid and worked together with us. Otherwise, how could we have such terrifying battle accomplishments?” said Long Chen. Now that their opponents were prepared, the difficulty increas
ed. That was only natural.

  “Let’s go. I want to see if we can kill more of those creatures again.” Long Chen led them carefully forward once more.

  This time, he was particularly careful. The formation had already been completely broken, and they could leave at any time. But they still couldn’t get too close to those terrifying existences. They had to have enough time to run away.

  But as they advanced, his expression became odd. He didn’t sense any feeling of danger, nor was he able to sense any of those creatures’ auras.

  When they reached the spot where the formation had originally been, they saw that it had been completely abandoned. What was in front of them was merely some ruins and charred earth. Not a single one of this world’s creatures could be seen.

  “Where are they?” Chang Hao stared blankly.

  “Their shifts are over?” Bao Buping also had a bewildered expression.

  Long Chen swept his gaze over the ruins and shook his head. “Tch, there’s nothing for us here. This world’s creatures aren’t stupid. They’ve decided to run.”

  Clearly, just being beaten without being able to retaliate wasn’t something these creatures wanted to continue. Unable to think of any way to strike back, they directly gave up and ignored them.

  “Fuck, seriously? How gutless. They conned so many of the continent’s experts during these years, but we only conned them a few times and they fled. No balls,” cursed Bao Buping.

  But thinking about it, that was easy to understand. With the Sovereign Blood Seal, they didn’t dare to approach this place.

  Continuing to stay here was just being a target for Long Chen to attack. They didn’t have any way to handle him, so they directly left.

  Long Chen’s guess was that they hadn’t truly retreated. They were probably secretly watching, and if the three of them really dared to go deeper, they would immediately seal their path of retreat.

  In truth, Long Chen didn’t have any intention of charging back in again. It was just that he didn’t have much choice but to come here over and over again because of what was happening on the other side. There was no way he would go deeper.

  “Let’s go. There’s nothing to kill here,” sighed Long Chen, turning to leave.

  “Ah, the feeling of being unrivaled is so lonely!” Bao Buping sighed as well, shaking his head.

  “Tch, if Long Chen said that, it would be one thing. But the two of us aren’t qualified.” Chang Hao was speechless. Bao Buping turned red. If Long Chen hadn’t been present, they would have never managed to survive coming to Devil Spirit Mountain. How could they be called unrivaled?

  “As brothers, him being unrivaled represents that we are unrivaled as well. His qualifications are ours as well!” declared Bao Buping unashamedly.

  Long Chen smiled. “That’s right. Between brothers, what’s mine is yours and what’s yours is mine. There’s no need to make any distinctions. Chang Hao, you should learn from him.”

  “Hehe, do you see? This is all our joint glory. Long Chen, what strategy do you have for our return this time?” asked Bao Buping.

  Long Chen shook his head. “There’s no strategy. Even these creatures have run. As for those fellows, there’s probably nothing for us to do against them either.”

  When Long Chen’s group of three once more appeared outside the entrance, as expected, those Soul Transformation experts had retreated a great distance. Sneak attacking them wasn’t possible.

  Furthermore, they had spread out in a circular formation. No matter which direction Long Chen went, they would seal his path of retreat.

  “Now what?” asked Bao Buping upon seeing them hiding so far away. There was no way for their group to attack them now.

  “What do you mean, now what? We’re in no rush. They’re the ones in a rush. Speaking of which, I’m getting hungry. Let’s first fill our bellies before fighting any more. That battle just now was pretty tiring.”

  Just like that, right in front of a stone pillar, Long Chen took out a table, some delicacies, as well as a jug of wine. The three of them immediately began to eat and drink their fill.

  The smell of wine and food wafted over to those distant Soul Transformation experts. Seeing the three of them eat like nothing had happened, their eyes turned blue from anger. They had seen arrogance before, but never anything quite so arrogant. They were treating them, Soul Transformation experts, as nothing more than air.

  “Hey, don’t just look. Do you want to come over and eat?” Long Chen grabbed a piece of meat and gulped down a mouthful of wine, waving at those Soul Transformation experts with his mouth full.

  Bao Buping and Chang Hao were truly hungry. The Heaven Splitting Battle Sect’s members were different from other cultivators. They needed a great deal of energy that came from food, not just spiritual yuan.

  Even if their spiritual yuan was full, an empty stomach would make their combat power drop a great deal. So eating was very important to them.

  These Soul Transformation experts’ hair stood on end from anger as they saw themselves be treated as nothing by these three fellows who were stuffing their faces. They were like hedgehogs. If looks could kill, those three would have been killed hundreds of thousands of times over.

  Several of the experts almost charged over to kill the three of them. But they didn’t dare to do so in the end. Who knew whether or not this was a trap? Perhaps they were intentionally infuriating them to bait them into coming over.

  In just this short time, they had been conned so many times. Even a pig would have learned its lesson. Thus, they didn’t dare to approach.

  The more Long Chen’s group of three ate, the more the others felt they were only trying to intentionally infuriate them. There was definitely some kind of sinister trap.

  “We have to stay cool-headed! Don’t fall for it!” warned one of them quietly. None of them dared to be careless when it came to Long Chen any longer. He was an evil bastard.

  The three of them devoured their food. In an incense stick’s worth of time, they were full. Wiping their mouths, they turned their attention to the battle in the sky.

  Right now, that battle had already reached its climax. Runes filled the sky, and flying figures could vaguely be seen shooting back and forth. Space was constantly twisting.

  “Long Chen, it looks like the bosses are at a disadvantage,” said Chang Hao worriedly.

  Although they hadn’t reached that level, they could see that other than Boss Bao, the other bosses were finding it taxing to fight like this. That was because five of those Life Star experts were using Ancestral items. Each of their attacks was incredibly powerful, making the bosses unable to fully block them. The Seventh Boss’s sword already had several nicks in it from his opponent’s Ancestral item.

  Although the Seventh Boss’s sword was a peak King item, and the material that had gone into it was extremely close to the Ancestral item level, there was no way around this. It couldn’t compare to an Ancestral item that had been nourished for countless years. Even if these opponents couldn’t use an Ancestral item’s full power, his sword was about to shatter, worrying Bao Buping and Chang Hao

  Suddenly, an explosive sound rang out, and the Seventh Boss’s sword was no longer able to endure colliding with Ancestral items. It split in two, causing Bao Buping and Chang Hao’s expressions to change.

  The Heaven Splitting Battle Sect’s members focused on using their huge swords. Losing them would be like a tiger losing its fangs. The Seventh Boss would very likely die in just a few more moves.

  “Seventh Boss, don’t panic. The Ancestral item has come!”

  Long Chen suddenly let out a shout and threw a black object at the Seventh Boss. It was a black sword, one of the Ancestral items he had obtained in Devil Spirit Mountain. But its quality was a bit inferior to Bao Buping and Chang Hao’s weapons.

  When Long Chen had subdued it, because he had been forced to beat it fiercely with the pot, there was now a dent in it.

  “Long Chen…” Ba
o Buping and Chang Hao were both startled. That sword was something they had personally seen Long Chen submit. They were very clear on that sword’s current state. It was basically half-crippled right now. How could it be used by the Seventh Boss to fight?

  If a weapon had to be given to him, he should have given them their current swords. After all, the swords they were currently wielding were wasted in their hands.

  But Long Chen had acted too fast for them to even say anything. The black sword was already flying through the air.

  “Haha, I’ll help you keep this sword. Many thanks!”

  One of the Life Star experts fighting the Seventh Boss suddenly used some unknown movement art to disappear. When he reappeared, he was right in front of that sword. He was so quick that others found it freakish.

  The Seventh Boss was infuriated to see this weapon land in the enemy’s hands. He was just about to charge out when he heard Long Chen’s voice.

  “There’s no need to thank me. Let it count as your funerary object… explode!”

  BOOM! What shocked everyone was that the black sword exploded without any warning.

  The detonation of an Ancestral item instantly devoured everything within a thousand miles. Space shattered, and the world turned dark as this energy spread like a tsunami.

  Despite being prepared, Long Chen’s group of three still coughed up blood from that terrifying energy. As for the Soul Transformation experts, they weren’t any better off. They tumbled back miserably, coughing up blood.

  The dark sky quickly recovered. They now saw that there was an empty space in the sky, and the Life Star expert that had been there had vanished. He had been killed.

  “How fucking vicious.”

  Seeing that empty space, all the Soul Transformation experts felt a chill. Cold sweat dripped off their backs.

  Chapter 1282 Blood Moon Devouring Sun Formation

  The self-detonation of an Ancestral item was practically apocalyptical. Even Life Star experts going all-out wouldn’t necessarily be able to block that power.
