The blond man was not tall, almost equal to Long Chen. On his back grew a pair of golden wings, resembling bat wings, shining with golden light, as if forged from gold.
His golden hair flew wildly, demonic energy surging to the heavens. Even without deliberately releasing his pressure, the terrifying imperial might had already suppressed ten thousand paths, causing the world to change color.
He looked down at Long Chen from above, his golden eyes filled with endless killing intent. In the air, it seemed as if invisible blades were continuously slashing at Long Chen, intent on cutting him into pulp.
"After countless years of planning and endless effort, we finally broke through the Gate of Time and Space and extracted the laws of the Chaos Era to break that bastard's Eight Gates Blood Curse. In ten years—no, five more years—I will succeed.
At that time, all curses will be lifted, and the billions of powerful warriors under my command will be resurrected with great force, slaughtering you foolish humans.
But unexpectedly, a mere ant like you ruined it, ruining the effort for the sake of the mountain. Tell me, how am I supposed to deal with you?" The blond man gritted his teeth, his face twisted with rage, looking as if he wanted to bite Long Chen to death.
"Didn't I just give you some advice? Why don't you give it a try?" Long Chen said coldly to the terrifying blond man.
"As expected, humans are foolish. Even now, you don't know who you're facing, nor do you know what kind of pain you'll endure in a moment." The blond man said with a sinister expression.
"Stop bragging. The fact that I dared to come to you means I'm not afraid of you. Besides, your scheme ultimately failed, which means you're still nothing but a corpse. Would you, Long Sanye, be afraid of you?" Long Chen said disdainfully.
"I've seen enough of the stupidity of humans, but I've never seen someone as foolish as you.
Not to mention you, a mere Earth Saint, even a half-step Divine Emperor would still be an ant before me." The blond man said.
The blond man kept calling him 'this emperor', which meant he was truly a Demon Emperor. No wonder his aura was so terrifying.
However, Long Chen still showed a look of disdain: "So what if you were once the Demon Emperor? You are still a corpse, still trapped by the power of the curse.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have acted from afar, and in the end, let my two sisters take me away, staring at me with big eyes, unable to even say a word."
"Pfft."
As soon as
Long Chen said this, Huo Ling'er and Lei Ling'er in the chaotic space burst out laughing. They had been extremely nervous, but Long Chen's words made them laugh out loud.
They were filled with admiration for Long Chen. Facing the blond man, he wasn't afraid at all, and even dared to humiliate him like this. Their fear of the blond man faded considerably.
Hearing Long Chen's words, the blond man's face instantly darkened, but Long Chen continued:
"You can't leave that altar, probably because of a curse that has immobilized you.
It's also possible that the power of the entire altar has merged with yours. If you don't dare to move, the altar will be destroyed. In that case, all your years of planning will be wasted, and you'll never have a chance to turn things around."
The blond man had been furious, but Long Chen's words made a look of surprise flash in his eyes.
Seeing his expression, Long Chen immediately knew that even if he hadn't guessed correctly, it wouldn't be far off.
"I didn't expect you to have some brains. That's right, I really can't move. Most of Feng Wuji's curse power is concentrated on me, and the Eight Gates Law seals my soul and will.
And this altar is the one I have commanded my subordinates, collecting human heads over countless years to build.
Because they are human, unrestricted by the power of curses, I have used their indomitable will, unleashed the supreme divine power of my Golden Wing Clan, harnessed the death aura of the Gate of Death to corrode the space-time barrier, extracted the power of time and space, pierced through the passage of time, and stole the aura of the chaotic era.
I used this aura to counteract the curse power on us. It seemed like success was about to succeed, but you, you bastard, have closed the space-time passage." At this point, the blond man's expression turned ferocious again.
Upon hearing this, Long Chen's heart stirred. That spatial passage wasn't something he had closed, but something he had closed himself after being sent back.
Suddenly, Long Chen understood that this guy didn't know much about that spatial passage either.
He was simply using that passage to steal a trace of chaotic energy to break the curse technique.
He definitely hadn't expected Long Chen to enter that passage, pass through the Gate of Time and Space, and enter the Chaos Battlefield.
Long Chen tentatively asked, "Bro, don't be so mad just yet. I have a question for you."
"Get lost! Who's your buddy? You foolish human." The blond man shouted angrily.
Long Chen waved his hand and said, "If I told you I entered that passage, went to the Chaos Era, and after wandering around there and came back, would you believe me?"
"Hahaha..."
As soon as
Long Chen said this, the blond man burst out laughing: "Idiot, there should be a limit to making up lies. Do you really think I'd believe you? Do you take me for an idiot?"
Clearly, the blond man didn't believe Long Chen at all.
Long Chen wasn't angry; instead, he nodded and said, "Yes, if someone else told me that, I wouldn't believe it either. By the way, where was I just talking about earlier? Oh, I remember now. We talked about you being unable to move, so you continue."
"Continue what? Even if my soul is trapped by the power of the curse and my body is connected to the altar, killing you would still be effortless. Do you really think you can leave alive in front of me?" The blond man said coldly.
"Leave? Why should I leave?"
Long Chen looked at the blond man and said, "I'm here for you. Since you're here, let's settle this to the bitter end, and then settle it to life and death!"
"You think of me?" The blond man looked at Long Chen, and the golden wings behind him slowly unfurled.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the entire world trembled violently, and then countless threads began to fall from the heavens and earth. Long Chen felt his whole body tense, as if embedded in the rock.
In the void, the constantly flickering threads were the compressed Great Dao runes, shrinking into thin threads. The invisible Dao was compressed into tangible threads—this was the first time Long Chen had ever witnessed such a scene in his life.
"You ant, you can only be manipulated by me. Who gave you the courage to speak so brazenly in front of me?" The blond man shouted.
"Crack, crack, crack..."
Long Chen slowly raised his arm, the void cracking as the space around him cracked like a spiderweb.
Long Chen felt the space freeze like solid ice, restricting his movements. Yet he showed no trace of fear; instead, his overwhelming fighting spirit ignited.
"Master Long San never needed others to give me courage. Today, I will kill you, use your head to honor the human heroes you killed."
"Eight-Star Battle Body... Open!"
Long Chen's furious roar shook the heavens, echoing across the heavens and earth. With a single roar, he shook all the heavens and worlds.
