Nine Star Hegemon Body Art c1-2048

“Don’t think you’re the only one with trump cards! I have plenty as well!” Peng Wansheng spread his wings. Starting from his tail, all his golden runes began to flow toward his head. At the same time, the golden runes in his eyes spun and began to blaze like suns. “I’ll let you experience the Golden Peng race’s unrivaled skill - Golden Peng Destroys the Void!”
A huge golden figure appeared in front of Peng Wansheng. It was the exact same form as him; however, it was composed entirely of golden runes.
It suddenly shot forward. The golden runes within it were growing larger and unleashing even more dazzling light.
This move could no longer be called a technique of the ancient races. This was an inherited secret art of the Golden Peng race. Only extremely pureblooded Golden Winged Great Pengs could use it.
Peng Wansheng was the descendant of the human race and the Golden Winged Great Peng race. Thus, being able to unleash this move was already inconceivable.
The two dragons smashed into the Golden Peng. The world shook violently and the ground exploded. Terrifying astral winds blew apart the clouds. It was day, and yet it was possible to see the stars in the sky shaking.
Such an intense collision unleashed a blinding explosion of light that was visible even on the distant battlefield.
“Cloud, we have to work hard and kill these people. Casualties are already appearing in the Dragonblood Legion. Long Chen will be pained.” Meng Qi’s eyes had lost their luster, and she couldn’t see the light. But she could sense Long Chen’s aura.
She knew Long Chen was putting everything on the line over there. She understood Long Chen too well. Each warrior of the Dragonblood Legion was his brother, and he was incapable of accepting a single one of them as a sacrifice.
However, this battle was cruel. No one amongst the Dragonblood Legion could stop that powerful rank nine Celestial. He was the greatest threat.
Cloud let out a sharp bird cry in response to Meng Qi’s words. Its feathers rose, and divine runes began to appear on them. It launched an all-out attack on the three rank nine Celestials.
Meng Qi formed hand seals and circulated her Spiritual Strength. The world began to change. One moment it was sunny and breezy, and in the next moment, a thunderous storm appeared. One moment it was a wonderland, and the next moment it became a bloody hell.
She was affecting her opponents’ spirits so that their view of the world constantly changed. This made it all too easy for them to make errors in judgment, and now, they were disturbing each other with their attacks.
With Cloud’s power, in a one against one, it could absolutely defeat a rank nine Celestial.
However, to kill one would be very difficult. With Meng Qi’s assistance, they were able to suppress the three of them. But killing them was simply impossible.
After all, those were rank nine Celestials. And right now, what they needed wasn’t to beat them, but to kill them. That was the only way they could assist the others and lessen the casualties of the Dragonblood Legion. They had to go all-out.
BOOM!
Guo Ran forced back his rank nine Celestial, but he was panicked. The situation of the battlefield was extremely grim, and the Dragonblood Legion was in danger.
“Fuck, do I only know how to show off? With this little ability, how can I keep following boss?”
“KILL!”
Guo Ran roared, unleashing a tempest of attacks with his dual sabers. His opponent who had originally been fighting evenly with him was now forced to retreat over and over again.
They all sensed Long Chen’s aura, and they knew he was fighting all-out over there. Gu Yang, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, and the rest of the Dragonblood Legion let out furious roars and went all-out.
In another place far away from the main battlefield, sand and wooden stakes filled the air. Chu Yao stood atop a formation of wood, shooting out wooden stakes like arrows.
She was also going all-out against Sha Guangyan. The land had been turned into a sea of sand, and she had summoned a mountain of wooden stakes. The two of them were fighting an intense battle.
Glancing into the distance, Chu Yao couldn’t conceal her worry.
She was skilled in defense, not offense. Although she was doing her best, she knew it was impossible for her to kill Sha Guangyan.
The two of them had plenty of spiritual yuan, and a fight between them was a fight of endurance. Their offensive and defensive power were too similar to each other, and neither of their elemental natures had a restrictive effect on the other’s. Victory or defeat would be decided by whose spiritual yuan would last longer.
Even if she could defeat Sha Guangyan in terms of spiritual yuan, it would take a long time to do so. Most importantly, Sha Guangyan wouldn’t just foolishly sit here until his spiritual yuan was exhausted. He would run, and Chu Yao wouldn’t have any opportunity to kill him.
So right now, the only one who could turn the entire battlefield around was Long Chen. If Long Chen won, the situation would instantly reverse.
As for if he lost, Chu Yao never thought of that possibility. It wasn’t just her; anyone who understood Long Chen never thought that he would lose.
Right now, Long Chen couldn’t just defeat Peng Wansheng. He had to kill him. Just defeating him was meaningless.
If Peng Wansheng simply fled back to the main battlefield and targeted the Dragonblood warriors, he would cause huge casualties.
So the only thing that could quickly reverse the tides of this battle was if Long Chen could slay Peng Wansheng.
“Long Chen, I trust you. You can do it.” Chu Yao looked at that blazing light in the distance, praying inside.
…
The Golden Peng and the two dragons exploded. A tempest of chaotic energy unfurled, devouring both Long Chen and Peng Wansheng. Both of them violently hacked up blood.
This exchange had been horrifying. Both of them were injured. Peng Wansheng’s manifestation circulated, and his injuries slowly healed.
At that moment, Long Chen shot over to him. The black pot in his hand explosively grew, becoming as large as a mountain as it smashed down toward Peng Wansheng.
Chapter 1454 Utilizing Evilmoon
The black pot became enormous, and a mass of its black rust floated away. Long Chen was finally able to create the slightest connection between himself and the pot, allowing him to use a bit of its powers.
BOOM!
Peng Wansheng had never seen such a bizarre weapon, and he slammed his claws into the pot, trying to tear it apart.
Crack.
What cracked wasn’t the pot but Peng Wansheng’s claws. The pot wasn’t harmed at all. Peng Wansheng let out a pained groan as he was sent flying. The pot’s power was too bizarre. His claws, which were comparable to Ancestral items, had been broken.
Long Chen didn’t give Peng Wansheng any chance to take a break. He once more smashed his pot at Peng Wansheng.
The pot was what remained of the ancient expert who had created the Four Nations Ancient Remnant. Now he could form the slightest spiritual connection to it.
Before this, the black pot had never responded to Long Chen. It was only just now that it seemed to have woken up from a deep slumber.
Long Chen’s spiritual energy poured into the pot, and the pot finally responded. It instantaneously grew to help him strike Peng Wansheng.
Peng Wansheng released a noise that sounded like an explosion. He turned into a golden ray of light that slammed toward Long Chen.
BOOM!
Golden light mixed with black dust flew through the air. Long Chen’s wrist cracked, and he vomited blood.
Peng Wansheng was no better off. His golden wings were now bloody, and his huge body tumbled back across the ground.
The wings of the Golden Peng race were their strongest weapons. But when he used them to clash with the pot, they had almost broken. That filled Peng Wansheng with shock.
“Fuck, a damn pot for begging dares to show off in front of me?! Ridiculous!” Peng Wansheng
roared furiously. His huge body vanished as he reverted to his original, winged human form. The primal chaos behind him revolved, and the injuries to his wings quickly healed.
This was the terror of Peng Wansheng. Someone with such a powerful physical body and quick recovery abilities was practically impossible to defeat.
“This pot isn’t for begging but for stir-frying. Today, I’m planning on eating chicken wings!” Long Chen used the pot once more.
The pot’s item-spirit had woken, but it still seemed to be in a half-conscious state. Long Chen couldn’t use too much of his power.
As long as he poured in his spiritual yuan to it, it would grow larger and unleash greater power. Just that was enough.
“Having humiliated the Golden Peng race, you’ve signed death warrants for your entire bloodline, Long Chen!” Peng Wansheng was a descendant of the noble Golden Winged Great Peng, but Long Chen had called him a chicken.
As he roared, Peng Wansheng’s feathers raised, and a golden rune appeared on his forehead. A golden spear materialized in his hand.
Countless runes revolved around the spear, and it was like the sharp fang of a devil king.
“Using my name as a descendant of the Golden Peng, awake my full power!” Divine light began to shine from the rune on Peng Wansheng’s forehead. The golden spear in his hand began to buzz.
The spear seemed like an ancient beast that had been sealed for countless years and now finally regained its freedom. Overflowing killing intent erupted.
“Die!”
Peng Wansheng’s spear unleashed a wave of golden light. A terrifying pressure caused the world to shake.
Long Chen’s expression changed. He knew that Peng Wansheng had used some secret technique to fully activate the Ancestral item in his hands.
Ancestral items were normally only usable by Life Star experts. Below the Life Star realm, an Ancestral item’s item-spirit would not be fully convinced of their master’s power and would only use a small portion of their own power to help their master.
Yet, Peng Wansheng had now fully activated the Ancestral item. This attack was full of destructive power.
It came so suddenly that Long Chen had no time to change what he was doing. He could only pour his spiritual yuan into the pot.
BOOM!
The golden spear slammed into the pot. A heaven-shaking eruption unleashed huge ripples that blew apart the ground and shattered any mountains in their way.
A giant mushroom cloud of dust appeared in the sky, and the space for ten thousand miles was twisting like the world was covered in water.
Long Chen repeatedly coughed up blood. His upper body was a bloody pulp, and even his bones were exposed. That huge power had almost caused his body to crumble away.
Long Chen was in an extremely miserable state, but Peng Wansheng was also covered in blood. He was staring in shock at the remaining half of the spear in his hand. The rest of it had shattered.
Long Chen pressed his feet into the air, stopping himself from being blown further away. Faint cracks had now appeared on the pot, and he didn’t dare to use it any longer.
“Evilmoon, I’m giving you one last warning. You better not cause any trouble, or I’ll toss you in manure and seal you there for eternity.”
A pitch-black saber appeared in Long Chen’s hands. An incredibly evil aura filled the air, mixed with a will to slaughter everything. It felt like the air of hell had suddenly emerged.
Long Chen raised the black saber into the air, and a saber-image soared through the sky, causing the stars to quiver. A formless aura locked Peng Wansheng down.
“Fuck, how can he use it?!” Peng Wansheng’s expression changed upon seeing Dragonbone Evilmoon.
Just now, because he had been lost in shock from the destruction of his weapon, he hadn’t been able to react before being locked down.
It had to be known that powerful moves in battle all required a long casting time, and that was the only way to lock down an opponent and prevent them from fleeing.
Without locking down an opponent, they would just run away when you unleashed your attack. Then your huge ultimate move would be a joke.
So before unleashing a big move, you had to create an opportunity to unleash it, forcing your opponent to have no choice but to receive it.
Long Chen had finally created that opportunity and grasped it. He had locked Peng Wansheng down, and the latter had no choice but to receive his attack now.
The black saber unleashed endless killing intent. It felt like millions of fiends were roaring. It was definitely a peerless evil weapon that was forged only to slaughter.
Peng Wansheng’s expression became extremely ugly. Clenching his teeth, he stuck out a finger and drew a vertical cross on his forehead.
Golden essence blood began to drip out. Peng Wansheng was forcing out his most precious, purest essence blood.
“Blood of the Golden Peng offered to my ancestors! Bloodline summoning, ancestral spirit possession!”
The void exploded, and a huge thirty-thousand-meter figure appeared behind Peng Wansheng. It was like a god had descended to the world. This figure was composed of golden runes. It was a human with golden wings just like Peng Wansheng, and he held a golden spear.
This spear was equally large. When the figure raised the spear, the world rumbled as if it couldn’t bear this power.
This was the Golden Peng race’s secret art, while that figure was an ancestral heroic spirit that the Golden Peng race offered sacrifice to. It was an extremely terrifying existence.
Most extremely ancient inheritances would involve offering sacrifice to an ancestral spirit. In the ancient era, there were some experts who weren’t willing to ascend and instead transformed their lives into protective wills that looked after their descendants.
As long as their descendants continued to sincerely sacrifice to them, their heroic spirit wouldn’t fade. Like an oil lamp, as long as they continued offering more oil, the flame would not go out.
Peng Wansheng had now summoned the Golden Peng race’s ancestral spirit, but the price had been a huge amount of his essence blood, as well as his purest essence blood located in the space between his eyebrows.
Long Chen didn't even look at the giant figure. All he focused on was unleashing his full power. His 108,000 stars poured their energy through forty-five of his acupuncture points.
The black saber-image in the sky grew more and more solid. It now looked like a true blade, but it didn’t cause any rumbling. Instead, it was deadly silent. It was the calm before the slaughter.
“Split the Heavens 5!” Long Chen let out a thunderous cry that was like the roar of a devil god.
The black saber hacked down following Long Chen’s movements. It unleashed boundless killing intent.
“Golden Peng Heaven Breaking Attack!”
Peng Wansheng also let out a cry, and the huge figure behind him stabbed its spear at Long Chen. When the golden spear met with the black saber-image, the explosive rumbling faded. Deathly silence took over the world.
BOOM!
Then an incomparably violent explosion caused the world to rock. Golden rays of light and black waves spread, unleashing apocalyptic power.
The ground crumbled, split, and exploded. Countless cracks appeared in the sky. It felt like a tsunami was spreading through heaven and earth. Terrifying waves spread into the distance.
The huge sound caused all the experts fighting on the distant battlefield to go deaf. Then in the next instant, terrifying astral winds buffeted them. Everyone hastily blocked, while the Magical Beasts high in the sky were blown far into the distance.
The fierce astral winds made them feel like their bodies were being torn apart. The weaker ones coughed up blood.
“What kind of power is this?!” cried one of the ancient family experts as he stared at the space in the distance that was still twisting violently.
Long Chen’s robes were torn apart, and his body was covered in blood. He was panting slightly,
but his eyes were calm.
He stepped through the air. Finding his target, he shot over. He put away the black saber, replacing it with a medicinal cauldron that he smashed into a giant hole beneath him.
Chapter 1455 Landing in Desperate Straits
Long Chen had used Evilmoon for the first time to unleash an unrivaled attack. But he was shocked to find that the majority of his spiritual yuan had been sucked away by Evilmoon.
Long Chen immediately assumed it was some nonsense caused by Evilmoon and cursed it. But the truth was that he had wrongly accused it.
Although he was just using Dragonbone Evilmoon’s body and not actually utilizing its true power, trying to use the fifth form of Split the Heavens would automatically use up over ten times the spiritual yuan as when he used it with his previous Ancestral item sword.
That amount of energy was the majority of his spiritual yuan. The exhaustion was huge, but the attack power was terrifying. His power had also been increased by over ten times, or there was no way Long Chen would have been able to defeat Peng Wansheng’s attack.
On the other hand, he had now used up so much energy that he didn’t have enough left for another attack. He could only use the Blazing Dragon Cauldron.
The Blazing Dragon Cauldron, which had almost been completely crippled by the black pot, had now recovered by thirty percent after this long recovery time. Its power had risen immensely.
The dragon image on the Blazing Dragon Cauldron lit up, and a faint dragon roar could be heard. The Blazing Dragon Cauldron became three thousand meters wide, and it was like a meteor as it shot toward the giant hole.
Peng Wansheng was hacking up blood in the bottom of the hole, his face completely pale. Even the golden runes in his eyes had dimmed. That attack just now hadn’t just used up a great amount of his essence blood, but it had also exhausted his spiritual yuan.
In his heavily injured state, he hadn’t even had time to recover before the Blazing Dragon Cauldron whistled toward him.
“Golden Peng Flash!” A ray of light shot out of Peng Wansheng’s eyes and struck the Blazing Dragon Cauldron. At the same time, golden light revolved around his body and transformed him into a phantom that shot away.
