Tang Wan'er felt the space distorted and vanished from where she stood. When she reappeared, she sensed the vast demonic might within the space, threatening to tear apart their bodies and souls.
Amidst the twisting of myriad paths, they saw Long Chen. At this moment, Long Chen was holding the Dragon Bone Evil Moon, slicing the star river through the sky, mercilessly slashing down with a single blade that cut through dust.
Opposite Long Chen, they saw a terrifying blond man. The moment they saw him clearly, Tang Wan'er and the others felt their scalps tingle. Although they had never seen the real Demon Emperor, they could guess his identity from his overwhelming demonic aura.
Before they could figure out what was happening, the two long blades clashed fiercely. With a thunderous explosion, people saw a sun appear from where the two were standing.
The 'sun' rapidly expanded, instantly engulfing the area where they stood. The Hidden Dragon warriors screamed in terror.
Such terrifying power—once struck, one would be shattered to pieces, leaving no chance of luck.
The most terrifying thing was that everything happened so fast that they didn't even have time to react before being swallowed by the "sun."
"Rumble rumble...
Tang Wan'er and the others felt as if heaven and earth were being crushed, their bodies and souls torn to pieces, and the aura of death completely engulfed them.
However, they soon realized they were not dead; that aura of death was merely a feeling.
They saw behind Feng Wuji, a man forming hand seals with one hand, divine radiance flowing, forming a shield in front of them.
It turned out that man had shielded them from the terrifying shock, while preserving the feeling of death, allowing them to endure the trial of death.
"Our Wind God lineage now has a successor." The man looked at the Hidden Dragon warriors, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Clearly, the Hidden Dragon warriors' performance far exceeded his expectations. Even as death approached, their will remained rock-solid—neither yielding nor fearing, instinctively resisting this unstoppable force. This kind of courageous and fearless will is the foundation of becoming strong.
If it were just one person or two with such willpower, it wouldn't be a big deal. Most importantly, the entire Hidden Dragon Legion was so powerful that even these Chaos Era experts would be moved.
"Rumble rumble...
At that moment, the core of the "Sun" exploded, and as the void twisted continuously, the two figures rolled out like lone boats on the vast sea, rolling unpredictably.
"Too strong,"
said a powerful figure behind
Feng Wuji.
"Truly worthy of being the Nine Star successor. In every era, the Nine Star successor has never disappointed." The other experts nodded as well. Clearly, they had recognized Long Chen's identity.
"Boom boom!"
Two explosions rang out. Long Chen and the blond man steadied themselves simultaneously. The blond man spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, forming hand seals, golden runes appearing on his brow. Clearly, he was injured and took the opportunity to recover.
"Whoosh."
Long Chen wasn't much better off than him. He felt as if all his bones were about to be shattered, but Long Chen neither regulated his breath nor healed his wounds. He simply stepped forward and charged toward the corpses.
"Kid, you're courting death!"
The blond man saw Long Chen still coveting the corpses at this moment. He was so furious he felt like his lungs would explode. He roared and charged at Long Chen.
"Huff, huff, ..."
Long Chen's strike was lightning-fast, collecting several more corpses in one go. At that moment, the blond man's battle blade was already whistling toward him.
"Clang!"
Long Chen shouted sharply, throwing out the Evil Moon Dragon Bone in his hand, slashing fiercely at the blond man.
With a loud explosion, Dragonbone Evil Moon struck the long blade, and the golden battle blade in the man's hand was actually cut in half by Dragonbone Evil Moon with a single strike.
"What?"
The blond man was shocked.
What he didn't know was that just now, with that strike, the Dragonbone Evil Moon had already shattered his battle blade, leaving a gap the size of a peanut.
Long Chen's strike struck precisely at that gap, instantly slicing the blond man's battle blade in half.
The reason Long Chen used the 'Flying Dagger' was because he knew that cutting through the opponent's weapon didn't require much force; Dragon Bone Evil Moon could handle it herself.
But if he held the blade with both hands, he would have to endure the blond man's strength, and in doing so, he would remain completely unharmed.
However, when the Dragon Bone Evil Moon severed the opponent's divine weapon, while the blond man was stunned, stars swirled in Long Chen's right hand, a cross appeared, silently striking his large face.
"You shameless ...!"
Long Chen shouted sharply, his large hand slamming the blond man's face. This slap technique truly did not disappoint Long Chen.
Long Chen's previous slap technique was purely intended to humiliate the opponent, never threatening their life. It could block the opponent's sense of danger, so it was always accurate.
However, this time, Long Chen's strike was meant to kill the opponent. At such close range, the blond man couldn't react at all and was struck in the face with a palm.
"Boom!"
His massive head and flowing golden hair were shattered by Long Chen's palm. Demonic blood stained the sky red, and the headless corpse was sent flying backward.
Normally, the Hidden Dragon warriors would have cheered for Long Chen when they saw this scene.
But at this moment, they were so shocked by the horrifying sight that their mouths dropped open. Long Chen was now fierce and invincible, as if the Heavenly Emperor had come back to life, as if he was no longer the Long Chen they knew.
"Smack!"
Long Chen landed a successful palm strike, his large hand spreading, and the Dragon Bone Evil Moon flew back, caught by Long Chen, and slashed down swiftly.
"While those heroes haven't gone far yet, hurry up and call me 'Daddy'—let me fulfill my promise." Long Chen shouted sharply.
"Pfft."
The
dragon bone's evil moon slashed down, sending the blond man's headless body flying sideways, sliced in half by Long Chen.
"Damn humans, the great Heavenly Demon Clan, how could they ever submit to you? Go to hell!"
From the sky came the roar of the blond man.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, with a loud explosion, the two halves of its body exploded with a roar, turning into a rain of blood that rained down from the sky. The blood rain didn't scatter everywhere, but instead fell onto the remaining corpses.
"Not good."
Seeing this, Long Chen's face changed drastically. He immediately rushed toward the corpses, aiming at one of themHe grabbed him in one go.
"Buzz!"
Long Chen's large hand trembled, and he was actually repelled by a terrifying force of vital energy. At the same time, he noticed that the corpses were beginning to show faint soul fluctuations.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't just watch—come help!" At this moment, Long Chen also saw Feng Wuji and the others. He instantly sensed their powerful aura and immediately called out to summon them.
"Long Chen, don't be rude. This is Senior Feng Wuji." Tang Wan'er saw Long Chen feeding Feng Wuji back and forth, so she quickly said.
"Young man, your bravery is invincible. I admire you greatly. However, they are our arch-enemies, and you've already done very well. This battle that transcends time and space ultimately depends on us to resolve it." Feng Wuji said.
"If you help me sever the bloodline power, I can collect these corpses. Why are you so fussy?" Long Chen shouted angrily.
As soon as Long Chen said this, the powerful figures behind Feng Wuji turned pale and were about to scold him, but Feng Wuji spoke up:
"Young man, this is fate, and even more so, destiny. With the Eight Gates Blood Curse activated, we are destined to perish together with them. Destiny cannot be defied."
Hearing this, Tang Wan'er seemed to understand something. It seemed that for Feng Wuji and the others to create karmic ties with these demons, they would inevitably go through a final battle.
Precisely because he saw this karma, he didn't try to stop the blond man. Perhaps he knew no one could stop him.
"Rumble rumble...
At that moment, the demonic corpses on the ground trembled. They were already awakening, terrifying demonic power surging as the entire world shook wildly.
"What destiny? What destiny? That's all nonsense. If this is fate, I'll show you what it means to defy fate."
Seeing these terrifying Golden-winged Heavenly Demons about to awaken, Long Chen grew both anxious and furious. Suddenly, he formed hand seals, and immediately after, a loud explosion rang out within his body. His entire aura erupted in an instant, and at that moment, he advanced from Earth Saint to Heavenly Saint.
"Rumble rumble ..."
At that moment, the nine heavens split open, myriad paths roared, and endless tribulation clouds enveloped the world.
