“Despicable human, can you not fight like a real warrior?!” roared Peng Wansheng.
If Long Chen continued dodging, Peng Wansheng would be unable to do anything to him. Long Chen’s speed was also extremely great. But more importantly, his aura was very strange. Peng Wansheng found himself unable to quickly lock him down.
“Aren’t you the one cursing your ancestors? Don’t you think that’s improper?” sneered Long Chen. The ancient races continuously mocked the human race. But without the human race, where would the half-breeds known as the ancient races have come from?
“I drew you over here because I don’t want to be disturbed by others. It’s not because I’m afraid of you.”
“Then you can just die!” roared Peng Wansheng. His wings flapped once again, and with the golden runes revolving around them, he appeared in front of Long Chen in an instant, sending a punch at him.
“You’re not capable of killing me.” Long Chen smirked. He also let out a punch, his 108,000 stars revolving.
BOOM! This was a pure collision of physical strength. Both sides were blown back several miles.
“I heard your physical body was powerful and unrivaled amongst the human race. Hmph, now that I’m experiencing it, I’m disappointed! It’s a far cry from the power of the ancient races!” sneered Peng Wansheng.
“That’s different. There’s no way to compare to half-breeds like you!” mocked Long Chen.
“Die!”
Peng Wansheng once more attacked, and a huge ball of light appeared behind him. The ball of light was a mass of primal chaos. It was impossible to see anything within.
When that ball appeared, Long Chen felt some kind of energy suddenly suppress him, making him feel weak.
“A manifestation?”
Long Chen was shocked. Just what was that indistinct ball? Why did he suddenly feel weaker when it appeared?
BOOM!
This time, he was sent flying by Peng Wansheng’s punch, and he coughed up blood.
It felt like his punch contained some kind of hidden power. This was a kind of power that Long Chen couldn’t comprehend, and it was in the process of breaking his body down at this very moment.
“Hahaha, didn’t I say that you are but a piece of trash in front of me? Your power is like that of an ant’s!” laughed Peng Wansheng.
The mass of primal chaos behind him revolved. It was filled with thick mist. It felt like there was something there, but it was completely concealed by the mist.
“Are you surprised? Did you think you were unrivaled just because you defeated a rank nine Celestial? Let me tell you, rank nine Celestials are not the peak geniuses of this world. There is another kind of existence born from the Heavenly Daos and destined for greatness, an embodiment of the heavens that stands at the peak of the martial path! They are above all other geniuses.
“I heard that you started from a poor background, correct? I suppose you’ve heard of Favored. They are existences even inferior to Celestials. Favored are the ants who disseminate the laws of the heavens. They are the most foundational existence in the cultivation world. Outnumbering Celestials over a million to one, they are born to spread the word of the heavens. But while they are the foundation, they are not the main characters.
“Above Favored are Celestials, emissaries of the Heavenly Daos. They are the servants of the Heavenly Daos. Although the Heavenly Daos give them some benefits, they are still just servants. Celestials are ranked one to nine, and even the highest, rank nine Celestials, are at most higher level servants.
“To put it in an uglier way, servants are just slaves. They have to listen to their master for everything. This world’s real main characters are us - Empyreans!”
When Peng Wansheng said the word Empyrean, the world shuddered as if resonating with his words.
Long Chen coldly stared at Peng Wansheng, not saying anything. He calmly listened to his bragging. He wanted to know exactly why he was bragging.
Seeing Long Chen not say a word, Peng Wansheng continued, “Do you see? I am someone who represents the Heavenly Daos. I myself am in control of the power of the Heavenly Daos. Unlike Celestials, I don’t need to borrow their power.
“If the heavens are the king, then Favored are the poor commoners, Celestials are the civil and military officials, while Empyreans are the crown prince! We are the main characters of this world! As for you, you’re not even a commoner, you’re at most trash with dogshit luck! Today, your glory comes to an end!”
After a moment of staring at Peng Wansheng who was looking at him like a king looking at a commoner, Long Chen said, “Looks like you’ve done bragging. I just have two points to mention. First, if Empyrean is the crown prince, don’t you think there are too many crown princes? Just here, there are already three. Who’s really the crown prince in line to inherit the throne? Second, if I’m not interested in being the crown prince, how can I become the emperor?”
“Foolish trash, you’ll pay a painful price for your disrespect.” Peng Wansheng was irritated that Long Chen hadn’t even batted an eye after he said so much.
His goal had been to shock Long Chen, but Peng Wansheng had just wasted his saliva. Long Chen was like a duck who heard lightning. It was like he didn’t even understand what he said. He once more sent out a punch.
“Hey, wait a moment!” cried out Long Chen suddenly.
Seeing Long Chen not even move to block, Peng Wansheng jumped in shock. If Long Chen didn’t try to block, this punch would blow him apart. There would be no way to capture him alive.
Peng Wansheng hastily held back his fist, but his power wasn’t so easy to hold back. As a result, he continued flying toward Long Chen.
Pow!
Long Chen slapped him across the face. This time, Long Chen had been storing up power for a long time, and Peng Wansheng flew for a hundred miles.
“Nice. We have good teamwork,” praised Long Chen, giving Peng Wansheng a thumbs-up.
“LONG CHEN! I’ll tear you to pieces!”
Peng Wansheng’s eyes were scarlet, and his face was twisted. With a sinister wail, he charged at Long Chen.
The reason Peng Wansheng had been played this time and slapped again was because Long Chen had seen through his goal of capturing him alive.
Now Peng Wansheng was completely crazy, and he didn’t even want to capture Long Chen alive anymore.
The primal chaos behind Peng Wansheng revolved. Golden runes circulated around his body as his aura soared. He had entered a berserk state.
He didn’t hold back at all with his punch. The void crumbled wherever it passed, as if the very world would be destroyed by this punch.
Everyone was shocked by Peng Wansheng’s punch. Even thousands of miles away, they could feel Peng Wansheng’s power. It was like this punch had also enveloped them, making it hard for them to breathe.
Although the battle between Chu Yao and Sha Guangyan was nice to look at, it wasn’t intense enough. Meanwhile, Peng Wansheng’s berserk punch was an attack that looked like it could destroy the world, so everyone looked over.
“Long Chen’s definitely dead. He can’t receive this punch,” said an ancient race expert.
In truth, everyone thought the same thing, including the rank nine Celestials.
Although Long Chen had fought and defeated rank nine Celestials, his combat power was just a bit higher than rank nine Celestials. As for Peng Wansheng’s punch, all the rank nine Celestials felt that they would die without any suspense if they were in Long Chen’s position right now.
Even Chu Yao was a bit afraid for Long Chen. She knew what being an Empyrean signified.
However, she still chose to trust Long Chen. She trusted that figure. In her memories, that figure had never fallen. He was an undefeatable battle god.
“Divine ring! Five Star Battle Armor! Green Dragon Battle Armor! All of you get out here!”
A pillar of qi soared out of Long Chen. The suppression of Peng Wansheng’s manifestation was instantly broken.
>
In front of the divine ring, all suppressions were forced to break.
108,000 green scales covered Long Chen’s body, and an image of a star appeared on each one. Endless energy poured throughout his body.
With a thunderous roar, Long Chen smashed a fist at Peng Wansheng.
Chapter 1429 The Situation Rapidly Changes
BOOM!
Terrifying astrals winds exploded. Space crumbled and spread a mass of ripples that spread in every direction, rumbling like divine thunder.
“He… he blocked it!”
Everyone looked up at the sky in shock. There, Long Chen and Peng Wansheng’s fists were repeatedly clashing. The mass of primal chaos behind Peng Wansheng surged, and Long Chen’s divine ring spun.
“Heavens, what terrifying power!”
People stared at them in shock as their power increased. Space was twisting around them, devouring them.
BOOM!
Finally, the sphere of broken space exploded. Long Chen and Peng Wansheng were blown back, both coughing up blood. At the same time, a huge ripple spread.
A huge wave of earth rose with the ripple, surging towards the distant spectators.
Those experts hastily blocked, but even so, some of the weaker ones vomited blood, their bones broken.
“Even at this distance, even when they’re fighting up in the air, they’re managing to reach us!”
The spectators were no longer bothering with Chu Yao and Sha Guangyan’s fight. They were locked on the two figures fighting in the distant sky.
“So this is the level of a crown prince? It’s not much stronger than an ant,” mocked Long Chen. Now he was confident in fighting. His divine ring wouldn’t be suppressed by any manifestation.
Although his divine ring didn’t have a suppressive effect on others, it also wouldn’t allow other people’s manifestations to suppress him. That was enough. As long as he wasn’t suppressed by some unknown power, he wasn’t afraid at all.
“You do have some power, but it’s just a bit. It’s not enough to challenge the noble ancient races! Die!” roared Peng Wansheng. Golden runes appeared behind him, shooting towards Long Chen like a rain of arrows.
Each one of those golden runes was actually a golden feather. They were Peng Wansheng’s core true feathers.
This was one of the Golden Wing Great Peng’s divine abilities. Each one of the Golden Peng’s feathers was a supreme treasure, and a powerful killing tool.
“If trash like you hasn’t died, why would I die?” Thunderforce appeared in Long Chen’s hands, and when he clapped his hands together, a lightning blade appeared in his hands. He slashed it out.
BOOM!
The golden feathers were blown away. But Long Chen was surprised to find that this lightning blade he had condensed with a secret art from the immortal era was unable to destroy the feathers. This lightning blade’s power was comparable to an Ancestral item!
“Ten Thousand Feathers Pierce the Heart!” Peng Wansheng smiled sinisterly. The feathers that Long Chen had blown away seemed to come alive, turning around to attack Long Chen from every direction.
Long Chen repeatedly slashed out his lightning blade, but the golden feathers were extremely nimble. Several of them slipped past his defense and struck his body.
The feathers were incomparably sharp, and not even his dragon scales could block them. Several bloody holes appeared in his body.
“These feathers are my core true feathers. They accompanied me and grew with me ever since I was born. Their toughness is comparable to Ancestral items. Now let me see how you run.” Peng Wansheng smiled, and golden light revolved around him. More and more golden feathers shot at Long Chen.
“Run? Why would I run? Do you think a few chicken feathers can block me? Don’t make me laugh!”
Although Long Chen’s dragon scales were pierced by these feathers, the injuries they caused weren’t particularly heavy. The feathers possessed Heavenly Dao energy, but his divine ring wiped away that energy, not allowing it to destroy his body.
“Raging Flames Incinerate the Heavens!”
Golden flames filled the air. Long Chen had summoned the Heaven Incinerating Flame. “Today, I’ll burn your damn bird feathers.”
“Bastard, this is the Heaven Incinerating Flame!”
Peng Wansheng was shocked, and hastily called back his feathers. It went without saying that the Golden Peng race’s core divine ability was powerful. Even the Heaven Incinerating Flame didn’t manage to destroy his feathers.
But his golden feathers had dimmed a great deal. Many places were shared and emitted a smell like roasted bird.
Peng Wansheng was infuriated, as well as shocked. He had no idea how Long Chen could possess the Heaven Incinerating Flame. If his true feathers had been on his body, they would have managed to endure, but having flown out, while their offensive power was great, their defensive power dropped.
If he hadn’t recalled them fast enough, his feathers’ essence would have been damaged. But even though he had acted quickly, his originally splendid golden wings now looked charred and ugly.
Long Chen gulped heavily, his eyes shining. “I’ve decided. Today, I’m eating roast wings.”
This was Long Chen’s first time feeling such an intense desire for food. That particular smell was just that enticing.
“Roast wings?” The faces of the distant spectators twitched. Long Chen really was trying to defy the heavens. He wanted to eat Peng Wansheng’s wings.
“Those who blaspheme the ancient races are all exterminated down to the ninth bloodline!” Peng Wansheng roared furiously, and once more shot towards Long Chen. The primal chaos behind him spread to cover him.
Long Chen pointed his fingers. Ten lightning swords shot out of his fingertips and at Peng Wansheng.
Peng Wansheng was caught off guard. For the first time, Long Chen wasn’t facing him in a direct clash of power. Now he was suddenly using a magical art to attack him at long range. He hastily rolled to the side.
But he was still too slow. One of the lightning swords pierced his shoulder, ripping a hole in his tough body.
“Impossible! Peng Wansheng is the descendant of the Golden Peng! His physical body is completely off the charts! How could he be pierced with one attack?!”
Although Peng Wansheng was from the ancient races, his blood had gone through an ancestral regression, making his physical body on the level of a Xuan Beast. Rumor was that the Xuan Beasts essentially had unbreakable bodies. But despite that, Long Chen’s lightning sword pierced him so easily.
“He controls the Heaven Incinerating Flame, as well as that powerful lightning. Long Chen is absolutely terrifying,” muttered someone quietly, horrified.
None of these experts had thought Long Chen possessed such trump cards. Each one of them was more terrifying than the last. Up to now, Peng Wansheng hadn’t managed to get any advantage over Long Chen.
The two of them once more crashed together, shaking the sky. Long Chen held a lightning blade, and when he slashed it down, it suddenly grew, filling the sky with blinding light.
Peng Wansheng, who had been fighting barehanded this entire time, now took out a golden spear. The spear was ancient and heavy. Its aura was anything but ordinary. It was a powerful Ancestral item.
BOOM!
The lightning exploded. It was like a giant firework had gone off. The sky was immersed in a sea of lightning.
Long Chen unleashed more and more lightning each time he slashed his lightning blade. As for Peng Wansheng, his spear danced in the air. They fought intensely.
BOOM!
Long Chen slashed his lightning blade. But this time, Peng Wansheng’s spear flickered with golden light, and when it collided with the lightning blade, an even more intense light shot out of it, shooting for the distant altar.
“What?! He… he’s borrowing Long Chen’s power to break the altar’s defense?!” cried out someone.
BANG! This attack containing both Long Chen and Peng Wanshe
ng’s power smashed into the altar’s barrier. The nine huge stone pillars shattered, and the black saber was visible once more.
“Hmph, I’ll take that saber first and then kill you!” Peng Wansheng became enveloped with golden light, and suddenly vanished. He reappeared right beside the black saber, grabbing it.
“Peng Wansheng, what do you think you’re doing?!” roared Sha Guangyan. A giant sand hand smashed towards Peng Wansheng.
“What am I doing? Do you think I’m an idiot? You’re intentionally stalling with her to wait for me to exhaust myself against Long Chen. In the end, won’t you be the last one laughing? Since that’s the case, I think I’ll take the treasure first, hahah!” laughed Peng Wansheng.
One hand broke the sand hand, while another hand grabbed the hilt of the black saber.
At this time, Long Chen returned to stand next to Chu Yao. Chu Yao had a worried expression, but Long Chen smiled, expressing that she shouldn’t worry.
Peng Wansheng’s sudden move was out of everyone’s expectations, including Long Chen. He had actually borrowed Long Chen’s power to break the barrier.
Long Chen hadn’t expected this seemingly idiotic Peng Wansheng to have some smarts. He had actually realized that his thunderforce was strange, and used it to attack the barrier.
However, Long Chen felt that this situation wasn’t so simple. This place was a huge battlefield. There had to be a reason this sinister black saber was sealed here. Long Chen didn’t think it would be easy to obtain it.
That was why Chu Yao was a bit worried, but Long Chen wasn’t at all panicked. He wanted to see if Peng Wansheng really could take the saber.
His guess quickly became reality. Peng Wansheng’s expression changed as he suddenly coughed up a huge mouthful of blood and fell back.
“What?!”
Everyone was shocked. Peng Wansheng had actually been forced off the black saber. But Long Chen saw a touch of shock in Peng Wansheng’s eyes that was quickly suppressed.
Long Chen looked at the blood he had spat out. He narrowed his eyes, but he didn’t say anything, as Sha Guangyan had already reached the black saber as well.
