The neutral camp’s experts were stunned. A Life Star disciple had just received the attack of a third step Netherpassage expert. Originally, they had predicted that nothing would be left of Gu Yang after that attack. After all, a third step Netherpassage expert was an existence that stood at the pinnacle of the Martial Heaven Continent.
The Unfettered Allseer was about to attack again when Sword Qi slashed toward him. His heart shook, and he hastily raised his ruler to block.
He was actually only able to block a portion of the Sword Qi. The rest of it continued past his defensive barrier of divine energy and left a foot-long cut on his chest, causing blood to soak his tattered Daoist robes.
“What terrifying sword intent!” The neutral camp’s experts gasped. There was no lack of true experts here, and they could sense that Yue Zifeng had relied on the will of the Sword Dao to pierce the Unfettered Allseer’s life and death energy.
Although it was just a superficial injury, an attack that was able to break through the defenses of a third step Netherpassage expert was a world-shaking attack.
“The youngsters today really are terrifying!” Even Daoist Heavenly Feather sighed emotionally.
“Rumor is that the Heavenly Sword Gate has produced two amazing geniuses, and those two geniuses are actually a pair of master and apprentice. This Yue Zifeng is the apprentice, while the other one is called Ling Yunzi. He’s a monstrous figure that has completely toppled the cultivation world’s iron laws. Despite missing his golden cultivation time, he still soared like a shooting star,” said an elder. This world was filled with monsters. Many monsters were bearing witness to the event today, but who knew how many of them were still hiding in the dark?
As for Yue Zifeng, he was another monster aside from Long Chen. He didn’t have the slightest aura of the Heavenly Daos on him. For a person not blessed by the Heavenly Daos to be so terrifying, how could those so-called heavenly geniuses live with themselves?
The Unfettered Allseer’s fury soared upon being injured. His hair stood on end like an angry lion, and he smashed his ruler at Yue Zifeng. “Die!”
“You’re the one who will die.”
Countless willow branches descended from the sky, moving like pythons. The Unfettered Allseer’s expression changed as he sensed immense danger from those branches. He almost instinctively gave up on attacking Yue Zifeng and tried to charge out from the branches.
However, there were too many branches, and more of them blocked his path as he broke them. Although he was able to break through the branches, his expression was ugly. These branches possessed their own life and death energy that was resisting his own energy. Fortunately, he had fled right at the start, or if he had let them surround him, he would have been in trouble.
The moment he charged out of the cage of willow branches, two golden giants appeared, smashing giant pillars at him.
The Unfettered Allseer couldn’t dodge. He defended, and those two giant pillars exploded. However, his momentum came to a stop, and the willow branches behind him once more crept up.
A black light-sword suddenly shot out, filled with the air of annihilation. It was Cloud.
The Unfettered Allseer was hesitating over whether or not he should dodge or block when a wind blade sliced toward him. It was like a crescent moon, so sharp that it sliced apart the laws of space and time. Tang Wan-er’s attack arrived at the same time as Cloud’s.
“Soul Wound in the Dream, Soul Burial.”
The Unfettered Allseer’s eyes fluttered. His eyelids grew heavy.
Not good!
The Unfettered Allseer suddenly bit his tongue, using the sharp pain to wake himself up. At this moment, all the attacks landed.
BOOM!
A huge qi wave blew the Unfettered Allseer into the sky. He was covered in blood. Blood runes had appeared on his ruler. He had actually used his own essence blood to power his divine item and increase its defensive prowess, but he was still heavily injured.
Two rays of Sword Qi slashed toward him at the same time. One came from Yue Zifeng, but the other was unleashing crystals to appear in the sky, and a soul-chilling cold enveloped the Unfettered Allseer. It was Ye Zhiqiu.
She was also a member of the Dragonblood Legion, and she had joined in now, causing the Unfettered Allseer’s expression to change.
The Unfettered Allseer hastily blocked, but Yue Zifeng’s Sword Qi once more managed to ignore his block and strike him. As for Ye Zhiqiu, her attack made frost cover his entire body, and he felt a stabbing cold in his bones. At this moment, Gu Yang’s attack arrived. He had already recovered from his injuries. He hadn’t even had to do it himself. It was the powerful healers of the Dragonblood Legion that had allowed him to instantly recover.
“Kill this bastard! We’ll make him really unfettered!” shouted Guo Ran. He had originally been guarding over the Dragonblood warriors to prevent any other experts from disturbing them, but Xia Chen had finished establishing a grand formation, so he joined in as well.
The Unfettered Allseer, under their combined attacks, was in a panic despite being a third step Netherpassage expert. He was surrounded, unable to charge out of their encirclement.
On the other side, Long Chen had Evilmoon lazily resting on his shoulder as he looked at Ji Wuming indifferently.
“Based on your expression, it seems you don’t like me much.”
Chapter 1986 Long Chen’s Trump Card
Ji Wuming’s eyes looked like a hungry wolf’s. It seemed that he wanted to bite Long Chen to death. That hatred was quite intimidating.
However, Long Chen was looking at him indifferently, seeming to not see his anger.
“Of course I don’t like you. Right now, I’m considering how I can make you feel the most pain so that you regret ever being born in this world.” Ji Wuming’s voice shuddered with rage. He even felt that killing Long Chen would be letting him off easy. He wanted to make sure that Long Chen lived a life worse than death.
Because of Long Chen, there would be no more Heavenly Fate Island in this world. Their inheritance, which had stretched on for countless years, had actually ended with Ji Wuming.
“I feel like we should amicably chat about things. Fighting and killing is meaningless,” said Long Chen.
“Hahaha! Now you’re afraid?! It’s too late!” Ji Wuming laughed sinisterly.
“Too late? Well, I was busy with my tribulation before this, and the one who should be afraid isn’t me. Look at your Unfettered Allseer. He’s already being beaten like a dog. The Dragonblood Legion came prepared this time. Every Dragonblood warrior is on the same level as a Netherpassage expert of the first step. As for the captains, they are on the level of Netherpassage experts of the second step and maybe even beyond that. Just look. They are beating up the Unfettered Allseer, which is the best proof. Weren’t you suppressing the Dragonblood Legion because you were afraid of us rising? Unfortunately, things didn’t go as you wished. We still rose, and that means that our enemies will no longer be having a good time,” sneered Long Chen.
He was saying this not just to Ji Wuming but to all the experts of the Martial Heaven Continent, including Yu Xiaoyun and the others. On the battlefield, the Dragonblood Legion had surrounded the Unfettered Allseer. Others were unable to charge past their barricade, while the captain-level fighters attacked the Unfettered Allseer. He tried to charge out several times but failed. He was trapped.
The Unfettered Allseer, a Netherpassage expert of the third step, was actually being beaten by a group of Life Star disciples to the point that he couldn’t counterattack.
“The Dragonblood Legion is absolutely terrifying. They actually have so many powerful experts, and they’re so young. Their potential is limitless.”
“It’s truly terrifying. Perhaps the reason Pill Valley constantly suppressed Long Chen is because they predicted that this day would come. Unfortunately, the Dragonblood Legion still managed to grow to this point.”
“Each of them is a monster. If any sect had one
of them, it would give them hope of suddenly soaring. Most sects only managed to get one such monstrous genius. If there were two, they would fight until only one was left. Perhaps only a supreme monster like Long Chen can make those monsters follow him with such loyalty.”
Emotional sighs could be heard. The Dragonblood Legion’s name was about to shake the continent. Pill Valley had missed their chance to kill them.
At this time, the old man stopped fighting. Yu Xiaoyun refused to fight him directly, and he was too irritated by this combat style. After cursing him a few times, the old man flew back to stand by Qu Jianying and the others.
Long Chen had said to make sure that Yu Xiaoyun and the others couldn’t interfere. The rest was up to him. Hence, the old man didn’t want to waste the effort. He smiled upon looking at Long Chen’s unrivaled manner. It was like he was seeing himself in his youth.
Qu Jianying, the old man, Yan Nantian, and the other Grand Elders were keeping a tight watch over Yu Xiaoyun and the others. As long as they made any moves, they would immediately attack.
Yu Xiaoyun and the others didn’t wish to act rashly. The four Grand Elders gave them a sense of immense pressure.
Other than Yan Nantian who was a bit younger, the other Grand Elders would definitely die if they went all-out. So if they were to strike, it would be an absolutely thunderous strike, a suicidal attack that aimed to take their lives.
While Yu Xiaoyun and the others didn’t move, there was one person who refused to stop. That was Wilde. He was still fighting intensely against the leader of the ancient races.
Long Juncang had shouted at him several times to stop as everyone else had also stopped, but Wilde ignored him. Long Juncang’s expression was dark with fury. However, Wilde’s attacks were too powerful and random. Long Juncang couldn’t predict what he would do, and there were no spiritual yuan fluctuations either.
Long Juncang sat at the top of the ancient races because he was a true expert with endless combat experience. He was proficient in the Xuan Beasts’ divine abilities and the human race’s magical arts. But he had never faced an opponent like Wilde.
An idiot who relied purely on brute power to randomly swing his club. He practically ignored Long Juncang’s attacks, looking like he wanted to be beaten.
There were several times where Long Juncang had had a chance to launch a heavy blow on Wilde, but he couldn’t. Wilde’s fighting style was one where he was happy to be struck as long as he could strike back. The winner would be the one whose body was tougher.
Even Long Juncang didn’t dare to receive one of Wilde’s berserk swings. He had thought about it several times but always switched to defense. In fact, once, due to that hesitation, his shoulder was struck and turned into a bloody pulp.
Long Juncang was in an awkward position now. He regretted coming out to help the Xuan Beasts as he was simply embarrassing himself.
He could only defend against these wild and shameless attacks, unless he was willing to be struck. But that would risk his life. How could the leader of the ancient races, a Netherpassage expert of the third step, really be willing to risk his life just to kill a fool?
Although he was infuriated, Long Juncang couldn’t do anything. Wilde would occasionally take a few bites of True Immortal Jiaoqi’s corpse before continuing to fight. It was like he would never run out of energy.
No one came to help him. They were blocked by Qu Jianying and the others. If they chose to fight as well, it would definitely be a bloody battle where countless people died. That wasn’t what they wanted.
They were all stuck watching. Yu Xiaoyun and the others could only hope for Ji Wuming to turn things around.
As for the Unfettered Allseer, they had no hope for him. They simply wished for him to last a bit longer so that the rest of the Dragonblood Legion couldn’t go assist Long Chen. The Dragonblood Cross Slash had been truly terrifying.
No one could view the members of the Dragonblood Legion as simple Life Star disciples any longer. They were too terrifying.
If it was a one against one, Yu Xiaoyun was sure that Long Chen would die to Ji Wuming’s sword. There was a qualitative difference between the two. The difference between Ji Wuming and the Unfettered Allseer didn’t stop just at one being a deputy.
Ji Wuming was looking at Long Chen. He didn’t even bother looking at the Unfettered Allseer. “Your final words are meaningless. The only thing I’m still pondering is how to make you suffer. Perhaps I’ll kill everyone you care about in front of you? I heard your father, mother, and little sister are in the Wine God Palace. Perhaps I should think of a way to lure them out and let them die in front of you as well.”
A cold smile crept over Long Chen’s face. He shook his head. “You don’t need to worry about such things. Do you really think you can beat me? Do you not know that it’s still unknown whether or not you’ll live to see the sun tomorrow?”
If it was in the past, Long Chen would be infuriated at such provocations. But this time, Long Chen found it somewhat laughable.
Ji Wuming was angered by this indifference. The anger and fear he had expected to see never appeared. He wanted to give Long Chen more pain, but he found that it wasn’t happening. His Fantasy Star Sword suddenly lit up.
“The ignorant have no fear. You will never know how great the power of an inherited divine item is. This power is enough to cause the world to shake. When you destroyed the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect, it was because their sect leader didn’t have the ability to activate the karmic luck within their divine item. Today, I’ll let you see just how great the power of a divine item is when it is unleashing the karmic luck accumulated by its sect.”
Heaven and earth shook. A starry sky appeared behind Ji Wuming. The world shook as the Daos and laws of the world actually converged around Ji Wuming.
“Ji Wuming is actually unleashing all the karmic luck belonging to Heavenly Fate Island! Long Chen’s in danger!”
This power had nothing to do with his cultivation base. This was the energy that generations of experts of Heavenly Fate Island had accumulated. It wasn’t something that a human could block. It would require another core divine item to activate their karmic luck as well.
An ordinary sect definitely couldn’t do such a thing. After all, that karmic luck decided the rise or fall of a sect. But Ji Wuming no longer had such concerns.
“Long Chen, you are an ant. Go in peace. I’ll make sure that everyone you care about is sent after you!” Ji Wuming slashed his sword.
The Sword Qi sliced through the clouds, causing heaven and earth to shake. He eagerly awaited the look of despair on Long Chen’s face. He wanted to enjoy that sight.
Long Chen pressed his forehead and extracted a drop of blood. He placed that blood on Evilmoon.
“Evilmoon, I’ll undo your seal. If you don’t kill him, I’ll look down on you for a lifetime.”
Chapter 1987 Evilmoon’s Seal, Undone
This powerful attack could not be received by just anyone. Of everyone present, only some of the peak experts could receive it. Hence, the people who cared about Long Chen felt their hearts clench.
Ignoring the might of the Fantasy Star Sword, Long Chen only focused on the blood on his finger.
That was a drop of his purest essence blood, merging with Evilmoon. As a result, a character slowly appeared on Evilmoon, and it began to shake intensely. It was like an evil beast was trying to break free.
Long Chen drew over the character with his blood, and it slowly revealed itself to be an immortal character: Shang.
Golden light blossomed as a divine and indomitable will spread. This divine aura caused the Life Star experts to involuntarily kneel on the ground. Even some Netherpassage experts began to kneel.
“This is… a Sovereign’s aura!” Daoist Heavenly Feather was stunned.
Sovereigns were unrivaled existences on the Martial Heaven Continent. They were leaders, rulers, and heroes who had come to the world to bring peace to chaos, allowing the Martial Heaven
Continent to escape its destruction.
Each Sovereign had been an amazing figure with no equal. They were viewed as protective gods. For a Sovereign’s aura to appear here, they all knelt down in worship.
“Is this really a Sovereign’s aura? How can Long Chen release such a thing? Is he the reincarnation of a Sovereign?”
People shuddered. They didn’t want to show disrespect to a Sovereign, but they suspected that this was one of Long Chen’s tricks. They didn’t really believe that he was the reincarnation of a Sovereign because all the past generations of Sovereigns wore white robes, while Long Chen always liked to wear black.
Evilmoon shook. Long Chen finally finished writing the Shang character, which was the seal that Sovereign Yun Shang had left on Evilmoon.
“Using my blood and soul, let gods and devils in heaven and earth hear my oath. My name is Long Chen, and I call upon the laws of the world to break Sovereign Yun Shang’s seal!”
Long Chen’s voice resounded through heaven and earth. The world shook as if it was responding to Long Chen.
At that moment, Long Chen seemed to be the master of this world. His word was law, and even the Heavenly Daos didn’t dare to go against him. This mnemonic was the method to undo the seal that Yun Shang had left him.
The Shang character grew brighter and brighter until it was blinding, and then it exploded. Once the Sovereign seal was undone, an evil, domineering, bloodthirsty, and ruthless aura soared.
“Hahaha, I, Evilmoon, am finally free!”
Evilmoon laughed wildly. The earth shook uneasily, and everyone’s expressions changed. That evil and sinister aura was hair-raising. It seemed that Long Chen had just unleashed some monster.
“Stop laughing and get to work, or I’ll be killed!” shouted Long Chen. At this time, Ji Wuming finally launched the attack he had been lazily brewing.
“Kill him!”
Evilmoon attacked on its own. A giant black blade slashed through the air, meeting Ji Wuming’s Fantasy Star Sword.
BOOM!
