Chapter 693
“A large battle will erupt in a bit . This battle isn’t suitable for you . To put it frankly, you’ll only hold me back if you stay here .
“I’ll stall them, and you run as far away as possible . Don’t say anything about wanting to stay with me even unto death . That kind of sappy line is too irritating .
“Once you run, hide yourself . Once I handle this matter, I will return to my identity as Long Chen . At that time, you can openly return to Biluo Mountain and say that after undergoing a life and death battle, you finally awakened as a Celestial .
“At that time, you’ll have my favor, as well as a relationship with the Fang family . Then you can openly fight with Hua Jinrong for the position of the future family head . ”
After saying that, Long Chen threw Hua Biluo into the distance . But while he threw Hua Biluo forward, he borrowed that force to fly back . The closest one behind him was the Corrupt Celestial who was also using the Netherworld Ghost Steps . His speed was the greatest, and he had thrown off all the others .
For Long Chen to suddenly shoot backward, he hadn’t even understood what was happening when Long Chen’s fist ruthlessly smashed into his body .
Blood filled the air as if two bloody stars had collided . That Corrupt Celestial directly exploded from the impact .
The benefit of being faster was not just that you could chase faster, but also that you could reincarnate faster . Now he would definitely get a head start on the others .
“Die!” Suddenly, a black light shot straight at Long Chen . Long Chen snorted and shot a blazing flame spear at the black light .
But what surprised him was that the black light wasn’t affected at all . It went straight through the flame spear without weakening .
At this close distance, Long Chen felt an incredibly resentful will coming from the black light .
“It’s actually a spiritual attack . ” Long Chen immediately understood why his flame spear had been useless . This attack was fundamentally not solid .
The black-white-eyed Celestial had an Enchanted item called the Nine Yin Soul Locking Mirror . This attack had come from it .
This mirror had a formation carved into it that would absorb dead people’s Spiritual Strength . Then through another formation, that Spiritual Strength became an extremely sinister spiritual poison, becoming a special spiritual attack .
This kind of spiritual poison was extremely terrifying . Anyone whose soul was weak would instantly die, their soul dissipating . Even people with strong souls would only be able to last for an incense stick’s worth of time . That was also why that Righteous Celestial had been instantly killed .
“Hmph, a heretical skill is all it is . ” Long Chen sneered and he slammed his palm into the black light .
Seeing that Long Chen dared to touch the black light, the Corrupt Celestial sneered with ridicule . That black light was something even he didn’t dare to touch .
BANG!
“What?!”
He was appalled to see that the black light was directly blown apart by Long Chen . Then seeing thin thunderbolts surging over Long Chen’s palm, his expression immediately changed .
“You can control thunderforce?!”
Long Chen sneered and didn’t reply . He shot forward at him, the thunderforce on his hand growing brighter .
“Evil Spirit Shield!”
Long Chen was too fast, and he didn’t give him any time to dodge . The Celestial didn’t even have time to summon his Cry of the Heavenly Daos . Forming a hand seal, a black shield appeared in front of him .
That shield was something he had formed from the energy of evil spirits . It wasn’t just extremely strong defensively, it was also very tough and flexible . It could be used to fight for a long time .
But what stunned him was that this Evil Spirit Shield that he was completely confident in was as weak as glass in front of Long Chen’s fist .
BANG!
Long Chen’s fist smashed through the shield and landed on the Celestial’s chest . The sound of bones breaking rang out, and he vomited blood as he shot back .
Long Chen was just about to chase and take that person’s life when another Celestial shot forward, slashing his sword at Long Chen .
This Celestial was much smarter, and he had already summoned his Cry of the Heavenly Daos . His attack caused space to tremble . He was clearly extremely powerful .
But a thunderforce-covered hand tightly caught this sword . His body went numb, and he had a bad feeling . He was just about to retreat when Long Chen’s other fist smashed onto his body .
Blood mist erupted . Long Chen’s strength simply wasn’t something this person’s physical body could endure . Even having summoned the Cry of the Heavenly Daos, the Celestial’s body still blew up .
Although the Enlightenment Palace Star was still in the cyclone-condensing period, Long Chen’s current strength had already risen to a point where it terrified himself .
It had been a long time since he had had such a refreshing battle . He didn’t need any weapons, nor did he need any techniques . With just his bare fists, he dominated these Celestials . His energy surged out of him endlessly .
The Celestials were all horrified by his strength . At this time, the black-white-eyed Celestial finally had a breather and ordered, “Everyone, work together! Don’t let him take us on one by one!”
The remaining thirteen Celestials all surrounded and attacked Long Chen . Long Chen was submerged within the domain of their manifestations . Being suppressed by these many Heavenly Dao manifestations, he felt his strength falling .
Long Chen activated the Nirvana Scripture, and endless flames appeared around him . The Nirvana Scripture caused endless flame runes to appear around him, and a beautiful chanting resounded throughout the air .
The manifestations of the Cry of the Heavenly Daos were no longer able to suppress him . Long Chen felt the pressure lighten a great deal, and his fists danced as he fought a crazy battle with them .
Explosions rocked the sky . Long Chen’s fists were like heavy mountains crashing onto their weapons . Each attack caused a rumbling explosive sound .
Long Chen had trained in the Lightning Rushing Hand . That was originally just a Heaven class Battle Skill . It was no magical art . But with the power of his tribulation thunderforce, he was still able to face off against their weapons barehanded .
As Long Chen’s fists danced, he seemed like a god of war, appearing incomparably valiant . Even surrounded by thirteen Celestials, he wasn’t at a disadvantage .
Long Chen no longer had to care about first rank Celestials . He just had to be careful about any strange Enchanted weapons they had, for example, that strange mirror .
But that mirror did not have limitless energy . Once its energy was used up, it was just trash .
True Enchanted weapons were not things these ordinary Celestials could use . A Celestial’s most powerful point was their Cry of the Heavenly Daos, which could reduce their enemies’ strength while increasing their own .
But to use an Enchanted weapon required an ocean’s worth of spiritual yuan . Most people’s Dantians, also known as their qi seas, all contained a similar amount of energy at each cultivation realm .
Only when a person entered Sea Expansion would their qi sea grow dozens of times larger, sometimes even over a hundred times larger .
Only once a person possessed that kind of enormous energy could they truly use an Enchanted weapon .
This was also why Meridian Opening Celestials could dominate Xiantian experts, but Xiantian Celestials were unable to do the same to the Sea Expansion experts . It was because the Sea Expansion experts possessed enough energy to bury the Celestial .
A Xiantian Celestial’s energy could be likened to a huge tree, while a Sea Expansion expert’s energy was grass . When there was too much grass, it could still easily crush a tree .
So although some of these people carried Enchanted weapons, they were at best quasi Enchanted items . They were merely used to shock and intimidate others .
As Long Chen fought, he was familiarizing himself with his new strength as well as trying to figure out his opponents’ relationship .
There were eleven people here from the Corrupt path . That was something easy to tell from their auras, weapons, and techniques .
The remaining two were from the Righteous path . He hadn’t expected that the idiots from the Corrupt path actually didn’t know how to adjust themselves to the circumstances . They had been duped by the Huo family .
It was no wonder the Corrupt path never worked together with the Righteous path . If they did, then this world would probably be united by the Righteous path in just a few years . They really had no idea how to scheme .
But thinking about it, Long Chen thought it made sense . The Corrupt path rarely had dealings with other people . If the Fang family ended up in control of the Pill Tower, then all their hard work currying favor with the Huo family would be ruined .
At that time, they would have to create a new relationship with the Fang family . That was extremely irritating to them, and they would rather support the Huo family . Then it would be simpler .
BANG!
“Not good! Get back!”
Suddenly, one of the Celestials made a careless mistake, and Long Chen caught his saber with his hand . The other Celestials hastily attacked Long Chen with their full strength, wanting to save that person .
Regretfully, Long Chen didn’t give them that chance . Holding the blade, just like that, he pushed, slamming the hilt toward its owner .
That person tried to abandon his saber and flee, but the hilt still struck him in the stomach . A terrifying force directly blew apart his body . He didn’t even have a chance to recover .
Borrowing this momentum, Long Chen charged into their midst .
One Celestial’s weapon was directly smashed apart by Long Chen’s fist . That weapon wasn’t an Enchanted weapon, making it much weaker than the others . This was one of the moments where Long Chen could show off his brute strength .
Following the destruction of his weapon, he shot back, vomiting blood . If another Celestial hadn’t slashed a sword at Long Chen’s back, he would have already died .
Long Chen dodged the sword and then suddenly formed three extremely complicated hand seals . A one-foot sphere appeared in his hand .
As soon as that sphere appeared, the Celestials’ expressions changed . That sphere was composed of over ten differently colored flames . Those flames were raging against each other, and the pressure they emitted caused them to feel a chill .
“Blaze Explosion . ”
Long Chen simply tossed the flame sphere .
BOOM!
Endless flames exploded, instantly devouring all of them . These Celestials were horrified, never having expected Long Chen to have such a terrifying flame magical art .
The Celestials resisted with their full strength, but the flame sphere contained all the beast flame energy Long Chen had . He hadn’t held back at all because he had the Earth Flame to protect himself . Thus, he could practically ignore these flames .
But while Long Chen had an Earth Flame to protect himself, the others didn’t . These people were too close . Some didn’t even have time to raise defenses before being incinerated into nothing .
Long Chen hadn’t expected the Blaze Explosion skill to have so much power when used in conjunction with the Nirvana Scripture . It seemed the Nirvana Scripture was much stronger than he had expected .
The Celestials who managed to raise their defenses bitterly endured for a moment . But the terrifying heat still turned them into black masses of ash . A cold light shot through them, directly severing any chances of those ashes coming back to life .
