Fierce Battle in the Bone Forging Realm

The golden blade tore through the sky, shining through the ages like a blade meant to sever the heavens, spanning between heaven and earth, filled with the will to slice through the firmament.

When Long Chen grasped that golden long blade, his entire essence, energy, and spirit concentrated upon it; beyond the blade, nothing else existed.

This was the first time Long Chen had felt such a thing; it was an incredibly wondrous Realm, as if he had achieved Fusion with the weapon in his hand.

Zhao Changxing threw a punch, a strike condensed from the strength of his entire life. It was only because he hated Long Chen to the bone that he spared no effort to kill him.

However, after the long blade in Long Chen's hand suddenly changed into a golden one, he immediately felt his scalp tingle.

It was as if he were facing an ancient primordial beast that had suddenly opened its eyes, causing his heart to tremble. But now, he could no longer care about such things, and he still smashed his fist down fiercely.

"Boom!"

The long blade collided with the fist, and the earth shattered explosively. A radius of several hundred li trembled violently, like an earthquake, and even the distant city walls were cracked by the shock.

"Whoosh!"

A terrifying gale, like a raging sea storm, surged in all directions, mixed with countless amounts of soil, resembling a tsunami.

Long Tianxiao and the others' expressions changed drastically, and he shouted coldly: "Everyone get down!"

"Boom!"

The crowd felt as if they had been swept away by a river; endless pressure assaulted them, desperately tearing at their bodies, making them feel as if they were about to be ripped apart.

When the soil stopped moving, Long Tianxiao was the first to "swim" up from the dirt; he had actually been buried more than two zhang deep.

Looking at the situation around him, Long Tianxiao couldn't help but be shocked to his core; a radius of several dozen li had turned into a massive crater.

The surrounding soil, like ocean waves, had directly submerged the distant city walls and even spread into the city.

"Whoosh!"

Shi Feng also crawled out from the soil, and when he saw the scene around him, he was also full of shock, as if in a dream, unable to believe everything before his eyes.

More and more soldiers crawled out from the ground like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Fortunately, they were far enough away that no one had died, though injuries were inevitable.

At the center of the battlefield, the dust and smoke slowly dissipated. As people's vision cleared, they saw two figures standing opposite each other in the center of the battlefield.

One stood tall and upright, with a hundred-zhang divine ring appearing behind him, and a massive golden blade over a zhang long carried on his shoulder.

Long Chen seemed like the Reincarnation of a Heavenly Emperor, his entire body radiating an Aura of looking down on the world with disdain. His long hair danced, his clothes fluttered, and he appeared indescribably arrogant.

Opposite Long Chen, the once insufferably arrogant Zhao Changxing had one arm missing, his face deathly pale, and he was looking at Long Chen with a face full of terror.

"What? Didn't expect this, did you? You thought that because you were a Bone Forging Realm expert, you could easily crush a Blood Condensation Realm kid like me?"

A trace of mockery appeared on Long Chen's face as he gripped Zhan Xie, which was the true name of this golden blade.

It was custom-made for him by Cang Ming and named Zhan Xie, meaning to slay evil and uphold the Dao. Cang Ming had placed great expectations on this blade.

And this blade truly did not disappoint Cang Ming, the Great Master of weapon forging; just after its debut, it had already severed the arm of a Bone Forging Realm expert.

"There is nothing to be surprised about. You idiots spend all day being arrogant and thinking of those filthy tricks. You blindly believe in your cultivation, thinking that you can crush those of a lower rank just by relying on it? How foolish."

"There are many kinds of cattle: yellow cattle, water buffalo, yaks, rhinoceroses. Although your cultivation has reached the Bone Forging Realm and you are ostensibly in the same rank as them, you must know that you are just a snail!"

Compared to those Bone Forging Realm Elders in the branch courtyard, Zhao Changxing could indeed only be considered a snail; he was simply not on the same level.

Zhao Changxing was both shocked and angry. He could never have dreamed that he would be defeated by a Blood Condensation Realm kid.

"I don't believe it! This must all be an illusion! I, Zhao Changxing, have run rampant for half a lifetime; how could I possibly lose to you? Go to hell!"

Zhao Changxing's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had gone mad. Unable to accept this result, his Aura erupted once again as he charged toward Long Chen.

Long Chen shook his head, put away Zhan Xie, and his divine ring also disappeared. Without even looking at Zhao Changxing, he turned and walked away.

"Kid, you stop right… Pfft!"

A massive wind blade struck heavily against Zhao Changxing's back, and he was instantly sliced into two halves.

As his two halves rolled a long distance away, Zhao Changxing saw that not far behind him, a massive snow wolf was watching him coldly.

A trace of mockery appeared on Long Chen's face. The power of Zhan Xie was truly too great, but the consumption was equally terrifying. Even using it normally required him to support it with all his strength; it was a huge burden on both his physical stamina and spiritual energy.

Now that he had tested the power of Zhan Xie, Zhao Changxing no longer posed any threat to him, and he couldn't be bothered to strike himself.

Little Snow was connected to him by heart and mind, so she naturally knew what Long Chen was thinking. Then, a silent wind blade slashed toward Zhao Changxing.

In his state of shock, anger, and near madness, Zhao Changxing had all his attention focused on Long Chen and had no idea what was happening behind him.

A dignified Bone Forging Realm expert had been killed just like this, and in the most frustrating way possible, his life came to an end.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…"

Just after killing Zhao Changxing, three figures suddenly came flying toward them; they were all Bone Forging Realm experts.

Long Chen's heart jolted. He called Little Snow to his side and watched the three of them with a guarded expression. When he saw their attire, his heart tightened; they were actually Elders of the Blood Luo Sect.

When those three saw Zhao Changxing's corpse on the ground, their expressions changed drastically. The one at the front shouted sternly at Long Chen: "Kid, who killed Elder Zhao?"

"Me," Long Chen said coldly.

The three were shocked and angry. One cursed furiously: "Little bastard, you dare to toy with this old man? Do you believe that I will skin your whole family, pull out their tendons, and scatter their ashes?"

Long Chen's expression turned cold. With a hum, his full Aura erupted, his divine ring appeared behind him, and he summoned Zhan Xie once again.

Pointing Zhan Xie at that person, he said coldly: "I don't believe it. I want to try. I wonder, old thing, can you fulfill my wish?"

After Long Chen summoned his divine ring, he became filled with seething killing intent. What he hated most were idiots who talked about wiping out people's families at every turn.

The three were startled by the Aura coming from Long Chen. They had previously sensed a Bone Forging Realm expert fighting, which was why they had rushed over.

Having just rounded a hill, they had discovered the battlefield here. They only saw Zhao Changxing lying on the ground; they hadn't seen who had dealt the killing blow.

Therefore, after they arrived, the first thing they asked was who had killed him; they hadn't suspected that Long Chen was the one who had done it.

Now that Long Chen had erupted with his Aura, it actually made them tremble with fear. They finally believed what Long Chen had said earlier; Long Chen really had the strength to kill.

"Who are you?" one asked angrily.

"Long Chen."

"What? You are Long Chen?" The three were shocked, and they immediately understood the cause and effect.

The matter in the Fengming Empire was considered a great humiliation by the Blood Luo Sect. These Elders all knew about the plan to let in Evil Path Disciples to kill Long Tianxiao.

Looking at the expressions of the three, Long Chen knew what they were thinking. A trace of killing intent appeared on his face. Sure enough, these bastards were all colluding; it wasn't just Zhao Changxing's idea, this was the goal of the entire Blood Luo Sect.

"Audacious! Long Chen is a Disciple of the Xuantian Branch Courtyard, and the place they are stationed is not here. You are clearly an impostor! You Evil Path spy, die!"

The man shouted loudly, a long spear appeared in his hand, and he thrust it toward Long Chen. His strike was ruthless, aiming straight for the center of Long Chen's brow.

Just as that person attacked, the other two did not dally; they both drew their weapons and charged toward Long Chen to kill him.

"A bunch of idiots, can't you come up with a different excuse?"

Long Chen cursed angrily and swung Zhan Xie. Weighing nine hundred and thirty thousand jin, Zhan Xie carried the power to split the heavens and crack the earth as it slashed toward them.

"Boom!"

The moment Long Chen attacked, the three felt something strange. Long Chen's long blade gave them a sense of fatal threat, and the three simultaneously gave up their attacks and parried instead.

"Boom!"

With an explosive sound, the three were sent flying. The power on Long Chen's long blade caused them intense chest pain, making them feel as if their internal organs were turning over, and they nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

The three were greatly shocked. They were all Bone Forging Realm experts and could easily discern that this strike from Long Chen was not a battle skill; it relied entirely on the power of his Physical Body.

"Use battle skills!"

One roared, raised the long sword in his hand, and a sharp Sword Qi rose up, slashing down toward Long Chen.

"Wolf Fang Slash!"

"Gale Thrust!"

"Mountain Crushing Strike!"

After suffering a loss once, the three dared not be careless again. They all unleashed Earth Rank battle skills, their Aura heaven-shaking as they slashed crazily toward Long Chen.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom…"

Long Chen slashed repeatedly with Zhan Xie in his hand, relying on the terrifying power of Zhan Xie to clash crazily against their battle skills.

The earth shook unceasingly, and the ancient city behind them also continued to collapse amidst the trembling. Long Tianxiao and the others supported themselves with pale faces.

Even at a distance, maintaining a standing position was extremely difficult. The earth shook violently, and those soldiers were left dizzy and dazed.

Every collision was accompanied by soil and gale-force winds, which, like ocean waves, swept them further and further away, until they retreated more than a hundred li, only then did it get a little better.

The dust and smoke from the four-way battle filled the entire sky; their figures could not be seen, and one could only feel that violent power.

"Boom!"

Long Chen struck again, repelling the attacks of the three, while he himself was also forced back more than ten zhang.

This can't go on; I don't have enough stamina. I must end this quickly.

In a situation where Long Chen was fighting one against three, he was at a great disadvantage. These three guys using battle skills to attack him were doing so because they feared his Zhan Xie.

Such a battle was disadvantageous to Long Chen. The consumption of Zhan Xie was terrifyingly high, and his arms were already starting to feel a bit numb.

The opponents chose long-range attacks, rendering his skills useless and leaving him in a passive position. This had become a war of attrition.

Suddenly, Long Chen sensed more than a dozen figures rushing near; they were all Bone Forging Realm experts.

He took a deep breath. No matter what, he had to deal with them before that group arrived. The Fengfu Star spun rapidly, and just as he was about to channel Qi to strike the acupoint and unleash Heaven Splitting…

"Heaven and Earth Cage!"

Suddenly, a familiar, delicate shout rang out, causing a look of disbelief to appear on Long Chen's face.
