Battle of the Evolvers

Suddenly, a golden spear appeared in Yin Luo's hand, which he smashed against Mo Nian's arrow. When the arrow collided with the golden spear, a heaven-shaking explosion occurred.

The entire battlefield trembled, and violent power erupted, causing the earth to crack like a spiderweb, spreading in all directions.

"Very good. It was worth coming all this way. You truly didn't disappoint me. This place is too small; let's go somewhere else."

Mo Nian took a step, and he was already dozens of miles away. After a few steps, he had covered a hundred miles. His speed was astonishing.

Yin Luo snorted coldly, moved his feet, and turned into a phantom, rushing towards Mo Nian. The golden spear in his hand carried the will to pierce the heavens as he attacked.

Mo Nian continuously plucked his bowstring. Light radiated from the bow limbs, shooting straight into the clouds and stinging the eyes. Three arrows appeared out of thin air and shot towards Yin Luo in a triangular formation.

Yin Luo shouted loudly, his long hair flying. He flicked his spear repeatedly, creating thousands of spear shadows before him, swallowing those three arrows.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three consecutive explosions rang out. Even from hundreds of miles away, one could still feel the earth trembling violently.

"So strong."

Even Long Chen couldn't help but be shocked. The combat power of Mo Nian and Yin Luo far exceeded Long Chen's expectations. Is this the power of a Dao-Originator?

"Kill them all!"

While Mo Nian and Yin Luo were engaged in a world-shaking battle on that side, with spears and arrows flying and explosions rocking the heavens, the Evil Path Disciples on this side also swarmed toward Long Chen and the others.

Their primary target was Long Chen, as he seemed to be the Soul of the Righteous Path Disciples. Although they didn't know why a small rookie at the Blood Condensation Rank had become the leader.

However, they knew that as long as they killed Long Chen, the Righteous Path Disciples would immediately scatter like loose sand.

A man with a face as pale as paper, resembling a zombie, rushed directly at Long Chen. His ten fingers were splayed, his nails like eagle claws, shimmering with a metallic luster. The sound of him breaking through the air seemed as if it would pierce one's eardrums; his Aura was terrifying.

The most terrifying thing was that his pair of hands were covered in blood-colored runes. A thick Aura of death followed his movements, pressing in from all directions, making one's heart tremble, as if countless vengeful spirits were covering those hands.

"A mere Blood Condensation Rank, die!"

The zombie-faced man shouted sharply and pounced in front of Long Chen. Long Chen didn't dare to be careless. He channeled all his strength and slashed at the zombie-faced man with his saber.

"Boom!"

The saber struck the zombie-faced man's strange claws, but to Long Chen's shock, his saber, forged from refined steel, shattered directly, and he was knocked back.

The zombie-faced man looked astonished. He clearly hadn't expected Long Chen's power to be so great, capable of blocking his full-force blow.

He was a Dao-Originator, praised as an existence invincible among his peers. Although he was only in the Early Stage of the Tendon Tempering Rank, within the Domain of the Tendon Tempering Rank, no one could suppress him except Yin Luo.

Even ordinary Late Stage Tendon Tempering Rank experts would be killed instantly by him. Yet, not only did Long Chen block this blow, he didn't seem to have suffered any injuries.

"Second move, I'll take your life!"

The man shouted coldly, his entire Aura erupting. Faint blood mist actually appeared around his body. As soon as that blood mist appeared, Long Chen felt as if shrill screams were emerging beside his ears.

This was the terror of the Evil Path Cultivation Technique. Not only was the attack terrifying, but because it carried endless Killing Intent and resentment, it specifically targeted a person's will. If one's will was not firm and fear arose, they would be finished immediately.

However, Long Chen's will was incredibly firm. He hadn't even yielded when facing the pressure of heaven and earth, let alone a bit of resentment. He was just about to counterattack.

"Wood Rock Spikes!"

Suddenly, a delicate shout came. The ground exploded, and hundreds of wood spikes, like bamboo shoots, drilled out from the underground, covering a ten-zhang radius and stabbing at the zombie face.

The zombie face was startled at first, then sneered, waving his large hand and grabbing fiercely at the wood spikes that were as thick as a person's thigh.

Those wood spikes, comparable to steel, were directly shattered. However, the zombie face underestimated the flexibility of these wood spikes. With one claw, he only shattered a few, unable to sweep away all of them.

When he was about to exert force again, those wood spikes had already shot towards his body like arrows.

The wood spikes were like octopus tentacles, hundreds of them coming from all directions; there was simply no way to dodge.

"You're courting death!"

The zombie face was furious. Suddenly, with a sharp shout, his whole body appeared an eerie red, like a blood man, and his Aura instantly became several times stronger.

"Boom!"

Those wood spikes were immediately shattered by the energy on his body, debris flying everywhere, his Aura extremely terrifying.

When had the Disciples of the Xuantian Branch ever seen such a terrifying figure? They couldn't help but be shocked; such a figure was simply invincible.

Even if they weren't afraid of death, facing such a powerful figure, they couldn't muster the will to win.

"Long Chen, leave this person to me. You must be careful."

The person who arrived was Chu Yao. She smiled slightly at Long Chen to reassure him and formed a seal with her jade hands in front of her chest.

"Myriad Woods Flourish!"

Following Chu Yao's delicate shout, the ground for several miles exploded, and countless wooden stakes flew out, like living vines, rushing directly towards the zombie face.

Previously, it had been a hasty situation. Now, Chu Yao unleashed her full power, tens of thousands of wooden stakes, like soft ropes, surging rapidly.

The man with the zombie face couldn't help but be terrified. Just now, he had felt that those wood spikes were extremely strange, both hard and tough, and their power was extremely terrifying.

Seeing so many wooden stakes rushing over, he hurriedly moved his body, dodging frantically. If he couldn't dodge, he had no choice but to fight hard and shatter the wooden stakes.

However, he didn't dare to unleash that kind of big move again, because if he released such a move a few times, his energy would be exhausted.

Competing in endurance with a Wood-element expert was simply courting death. Usually, Wood-element experts were support-type powerhouses, with vast energy like the sea, but their attack power was very average.

But Chu Yao's talent was extraordinary. Her Wood energy unexpectedly contained a rare portion of Earth energy, capable of being as hard as rock without losing the flexibility of wood, which was extremely terrifying.

That was why she was directly accepted as a Disciple by the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Wood Palace. One had to know that the Heavenly Wood Palace Sect Leader was extremely proud and had never taken any Disciples in their life.

After taking Chu Yao in, they taught her everything they knew. Although the time she had been in the Heavenly Wood Palace was very short, her Foundation was built extremely solidly.

And in order to protect Long Chen in the future, Chu Yao practiced desperately, which was why she had such terrifying combat power.

The chaotic wood filled the air, like countless giant pythons, attacking crazily, the Aura terrifying. Tu Fang and the others couldn't help but have looks of shock on their faces.

Only Hua Yu looked excited: "Hehe, this girl is too amazing. She really brings honor to our Heavenly Wood Palace."

That zombie-faced Dao-Originator, although powerful, could only be forced to defend amidst Chu Yao's sky-filling wood spikes.

Because Chu Yao's attack range was too large, surrounding him in the wood formation all at once, Chu Yao was effectively in an invincible position.

Within the wood formation, she was the Dominator. All the wood spikes were controlled by her mind, just like a part of her own body.

The zombie face's expression became uglier and uglier, basically stiffer than a zombie, because he was trapped.

If this continued, this battle would become a war of attrition. Comparing internal energy with a Wood-element expert was just asking to be tortured.

Usually, the energy inside a Wood-element expert's body was more than ten times that of their peers. Competing with a Dao-Originator-level Wood-element expert, who knew how much energy she had?

The zombie face tried several times to break through those annoying wood spikes and kill Chu Yao with full force. As long as he killed Chu Yao, those annoying wood spikes would disappear.

His idea was very full, but reality was very skinny—almost as skinny as his face. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't even dream of getting within a hundred zhang of Chu Yao, let alone attacking.

The zombie face was so angry that he yelled: "Hurry up and help me kill that woman!"

However, no one paid attention to him, because those Disciples had also rushed out when he was fighting Chu Yao.

A Dao-Originator holding a giant axe like a tabletop had just rushed over, and before he could even shout, a huge spiked mace smashed fiercely towards him.

"You are mine!"

That person was A-Man. Although A-Man was usually a bit silly, this time he had learned to be smart. Without waiting for Long Chen to speak, he had already found his target.

Because that Dao-Originator was sturdy, his muscles bulging, like an iron tower, especially the giant axe in his hand, which was several sizes larger than a tabletop. At a glance, he was a person with extremely terrifying power.

And A-Man was best at strength. His usual battles were simply not satisfying, and he didn't want to fight Long Chen, so he had been feeling uncomfortable for some time.

When he saw such a figure rushing over, he thought it was a gift from heaven. Fearing that others would snatch it, he was the first to rush out.

That Evil Path expert had just rushed over and was about to roar when he saw a spiked mace with a head as thick as a water vat smashing over. He couldn't help but be furious and swung his giant axe fiercely.

"Boom!"

Not only the battlefield, but even the mountain where the Righteous and Evil Path Elder-level experts were located was shaken, and some stones slowly rolled down from the mountain top.

"Is this that silly boy from before?"

"That's right, it's him."

Tu Fang forcibly concealed the excitement in his heart. He was truly worthy of being Cang Ming's Disciple. Such combat power was simply shocking. The Branch had also produced a Dao-Originator-level expert.

The Senior Brother-level enforcers of the Xuantian Branch, watching A-Man waving his huge spiked mace and fighting crazily against that Dao-Originator, couldn't help but be shocked to the core.

This batch of juniors was simply too terrifying. Having only been enrolled for half a year, they had already surpassed their group of Senior Brothers.

"Satisfying, truly satisfying!"

A-Man yelled while waving his spiked mace, his voice full of excitement. Except for fighting Cang Ming, he had never fought with full strength. Such a battle of the same level made A-Man ecstatic.

"Don't play around. If you can smash him to death early, then smash him to death early," Long Chen reminded him loudly. He was afraid that A-Man would get addicted to fighting and wouldn't want to kill his opponent.

"Alright!"

With Long Chen and A-Man chatting like this, that Dao-Originator couldn't take it anymore. Could there be anything more bullying than this?

"Brat, go to hell! Golden Python Power!"

That Dao-Originator roared, and a layer of scales appeared all over his body. The most terrifying thing was that one of his eyes turned into a vertical pupil, resembling a poisonous snake's eye.

"Die!"

That Dao-Originator roared angrily, and the giant axe in his hand slashed through the Void Realm and struck fiercely down at A-Man.
