following long chen’s shout, lei long and huo long flew out. they rapidly grew larger as they intertwined, looking like two dragons piercing out of the ground and the heavens.
this action happened incredibly quickly. the corpse-like man had been extremely confident in his ghost devours spirit curse, and he had thought that long chen would be powerless to retaliate. but his confidence had become the death of him.
the two dragons directly caused his body to explode. and they continued forward, directly roaring toward the remaining five.
lei long and huo long were too large, and they almost filled the entire cave. the five of them had no chance to flee, and they could only resist with their full strength.
boom!
the five of them instantly exploded. even the incomparably sturdy cave was blown wider.
the corpse-like man only had a head remaining. suddenly, two runic wings appeared on that head’s back, and like a butterfly, it began to fly away.
long chen’s saber sliced that head cleanly in two. but then an illusory figure shot out. that was the corpse-like man’s soul.
if he could bring his head away, he would be able to survive. he had heard that as long as rank three celestials were given enough time, they could regenerate a full body from just a head.
but now the head had been destroyed. the corpse-like man could only flee with his soul. his soul would at most be able to survive for twenty-four hours in the outside world before dissipating.
so within the next twenty-four hours, he would have to find a suitable body to possess.
“stay behind.” long chen snorted and waved his hand. a lightning arrow shot at the soul.
the corpse-like man’s soul suddenly shouted, “lord xue you, save-”
regretfully, before he could finish shouting, the lightning arrow pierced through his soul. lightning was the bane of all souls. his soul instantly exploded into runes.
those runes had only just appeared before they dispersed, being absorbed into the primal chaos space. long chen was delighted. he had gained yet another rank three heavenly dao fruit.
suddenly, his heart shook. a sensation of terrifying danger caused his hair to stand on end. without even thinking about it, he dodged to the side.
a ray of light pierced his shoulder, bringing with it a spray of blood. he slammed into the wall and hastily looked in the direction of the attack.
there were over ten people who had arrived, all of them from the corrupt path. the person at the front was a handsome long-haired man. he wore a golden crown and violet robes. his gaze was like two sharp blades stabbing into long chen.
the most terrifying thing about him was his pitch-black third eye on his forehead. it looked as if it could devour all of heaven and earth.
“truly worthy of being long chen, ranked number one on the must-kill list. even under the ghost devours spirit curse, you were still able to kill qi luo. long chen, although we’re enemies, i really have to admire you,” said that man.
but just when he thought that long chen would have no time to change his move, long chen’s saber borrowed the rebound strength to slash toward xue you’s throat. he also hadn’t released his aura. in fact, he hadn’t used his spiritual yuan.
xue you was now truly startled. he shot backward, dodging the saber. his movement technique was incredibly bizarre.
he had only just dodged long chen’s slash when the tip of the saber pierced toward his throat. he was shocked, not expecting that long chen’s slash was actually a feint. the instant he dodged it, long chen changed his slash into a thrust.
xue you slammed his palm into long chen’s saber, knocking it out of his hand, shattering it.
the zhanmadao was widely known for the sharpness of its point. it was actually somewhat similar to a sword and relied more on agility. xue you had struck it in its weakest spot, and after all, it was just an enchanted item. thus, it instantly shattered.
long chen was forced back a dozen steps. not far behind him was the wall. but he looked disdainfully at xue you.
looking at his own palm, xue you was infuriated. in terms of technique, he had lost. if he hadn’t used his spiritual yuan in the end, he would have been injured. this was a humiliation that he couldn’t accept.
“as expected, you really didn’t last ten moves.” long chen smiled lightly.
he had to admit that xue you was a terrifying expert, but when it came to combat experience, no one had more than him.
his combat experience was something he had accumulated through risking his life. even though the corrupt path was famed for their viciousness, long chen didn’t believe that they would really throw their geniuses into crisis after crisis and have them either survive on their own or perish.
who cared if they were talented? he had trampled countless geniuses on his path. he had paid far more than anyone. was the smooth and level path of a genius so amazing?
long chen’s words were a slap in xue you’s face. he had previously said that long chen wouldn’t even be able to last ten moves against him even in his peak state. but now, long chen had forced him to use his spiritual yuan in just three moves. it could already be called his loss.
“tch, hopefully you can still say such things once i draw out your soul.”
“departed spirit restriction!”
countless blood-colored runes lit up on xue you’s hands. the entire space was covered with his runes, and a terrifying pressure descended. it was like space was about to be compressed.
this should be something similar to a spatial magical art. long chen’s heart shook. as expected, xue you was incredibly powerful. he was actually able to use spatial strength. but he didn’t have the time to be shocked. as those runes compressed, the space around him also compressed. soon, he wouldn’t even be able to move.
“double dragon destruction!”
at this moment, he was incredibly weak. his only abilities unaffected by the curse were huo long and lei long’s combined attack.
“heaven-netherworld divine shield!”
sensing the aura of the two dragons, xue you was startled. he could no longer continue compressing space, and a blood-red shield appeared in front of him.
boom!
this was a world-rocking collision. the entire cave shuddered and almost collapsed. when the dust finally scattered, the corrupt experts were all dumbfounded.
