Innate Power

When Long Chen arrived at the battlefield of Mo Nian and Yin Luo, his heart couldn't help but race; the battle between the two was truly too intense.

Spears came and arrows went, explosive sounds shook the sky, and rolling waves of Qi surged, causing the Void Realm to tremble unceasingly.

Although Long Chen had killed a Dao Deriver, the two people before him were far, far stronger than those Dao Derivers; they were simply not on the same level.

"Brother Mo Nian, do you need help?"

Watching the two fight, Long Chen couldn't help but feel his own heart surging with excitement. They were around his age, yet their combat power was truly terrifying; they were not in the slightest bit weaker than that Evil Path Elder, and might even be stronger.

"The target is a bit tough. Let's do this together. Let's kill him quickly and find a place to drink."

The bowstring in Mo Nian's hand trembled, and arrows flew explosively, yet he could never do anything to Yin Luo, which left him very frustrated.

He had boasted at the beginning, but this Yin Luo was truly too formidable. In the short term, they had fought to a standstill.

Mo Nian couldn't kill Yin Luo, and Yin Luo couldn't do anything to Mo Nian. Both were peerless experts; wanting to kill someone of this caliber was truly too difficult.

Mo Nian was also tired of fighting. For the first time in his life, he had wasted so much time with an expert of the same Realm without being able to take him down. Now, hearing Long Chen's proposal, he naturally had no objections.

Long Chen laughed loudly, moved his feet, and like a flying rainbow, charged into the battle circle, striking directly at Yin Luo with his saber.

However, after Long Chen entered the battle circle, he discovered that a strange force field had been generated where the two were fighting.

That kind of force field was not pressure, but originated from their wills. This was the first time Long Chen had encountered such a force field.

However, just after entering this force field, influenced by the wills of the two, Long Chen's own will uncontrollably erupted.

Completely different from their wills, Long Chen's will was not aimed at anyone, but at the entire heaven and earth, at the entire world, wishing to break the shackles of heaven and earth and look down upon the Nine Heavens.

When Long Chen's will was ignited, both Mo Nian and Yin Luo sensed it, and both were shocked at the same time.

"Watch my saber!"

Long Chen slashed down, light emerging upon the Severing Evil, shaking the mountains and rivers with its power.

Yin Luo snorted coldly. Runes lit up on the long spear in his hand, and a strange luster emerged as he smashed it against Long Chen's saber strike.

"Boom!"

Golden light dazzled, and explosive sounds shook the sky. Long Chen's entire body shook violently, and even his arms went slightly numb.

"Such powerful strength!"

Long Chen was shocked in his heart. This Yin Luo was truly too powerful; he was definitely no worse than that Evil Path Elder.

Long Chen was shaken back, but Yin Luo didn't have it easy either. A trace of shock appeared in his eyes; his strength was considered number one among the younger generation of the Evil Path.

For so many years, he had relied on his powerful strength to directly kill his opponents; he had even killed quite a few Bone Forging Realm experts.

But today, he was shaken until his wrists went numb by Long Chen's single strike, and his long spear had almost slipped from his hand. How could he not be shocked?

"Hum."

At that moment, an arrow from Mo Nian shot over. Yin Luo hurriedly swung his long spear, shattering that arrow.

However, because he couldn't withstand that terrifying force, he stumbled backward. Just then, Long Chen's long saber struck again.

"Boom, boom, boom…"

Long Chen attacked from close range while Mo Nian shot from afar, forcing Yin Luo to retreat repeatedly. Even as powerful as Yin Luo was, he couldn't withstand the joint attacks of the two.

"Put in more effort, we're about to finish him off!" Seeing Long Chen so fierce, Mo Nian couldn't help but be overjoyed. His long bow shook repeatedly, and arrows shot out in succession.

Mo Nian was a long-range attacker, and fighting against Yin Luo, he was inherently at a disadvantage because Yin Luo's speed was very fast, making it difficult for him to create distance.

Now that Long Chen was holding the front, he didn't need to deliberately maintain distance. Although he had to slow his rhythm for fear of accidentally injuring Long Chen, the power of their combined efforts was much greater.

"So what if the two of you join forces? Look at my Netherworld Possession!"

Yin Luo suddenly shouted, and the phantom image that had appeared behind him slowly disappeared, merging into his body.

"Hum."

Suddenly, the space surged, and the expressions of both Long Chen and Mo Nian changed. They felt as if the heaven and earth around them had changed.

"Not good, this bastard actually refined Innate Essence Blood!" Mo Nian warned loudly.

Innate Essence Blood was the essence blood produced after a Pulse Condensation Realm expert broke through the Acquired barrier, stepped into the Innate Realm, and underwent marrow washing.

Innate Realm experts had already shed their Acquired mortal bodies; their bodies would receive the blessings of heaven and earth, allowing them to draw upon the energy of heaven and earth for their own use, and their Lifespan could increase to over a thousand years, making them known as supreme experts.

And their essence blood was the source of their energy, extremely precious, because only Innate Essence Blood had the ability to draw upon the energy of heaven and earth.

The Yin Luo before them, for some reason, actually possessed Innate Essence Blood within his body. Just a moment ago, he had actually drawn upon the power of heaven and earth.

Although it was only a tiny bit, the power of heaven and earth was terrifying; it was simply not something a normal person could withstand.

"Die!"

An unhealthy flush appeared on Yin Luo's face. Although he had Innate Essence Blood in his body, the power of heaven and earth was not so easy to control; even that insignificant bit was something he could barely withstand.

He swung the golden long spear in his hand, and the space immediately trembled. The energy within a thousand feet was instantly sucked dry by his spear.

"Soul-Chasing Piercing!"

Following Yin Luo's voice, the golden long spear in his hand stabbed fiercely toward Long Chen. The terrifying energy almost crushed the space itself.

"Earth-Reversing Mountain-Shaking Arrow!"

Mo Nian responded immediately. Unlike Long Chen, he knew how terrifying this strike from Yin Luo was; it had the power to instantly kill Bone Forging Realm experts. Therefore, he no longer held anything back, pouring all his strength into his long bow. A ten-zhang-long red arrow flew out, shooting straight toward Yin Luo.

Although he didn't know what the Innate Essence Blood that Mo Nian mentioned was, relying on his astonishing intuition, Long Chen sensed the terror of this strike.

Gripping the Severing Evil with both hands, the surging energy behind him was crazily injected into the Severing Evil. This time, Long Chen finally acted like a spendthrift.

The power Chu Yao had bestowed upon him was completely squandered; that was energy several times greater than Long Chen's peak period, and he used it all.

However, Long Chen discovered with shock that even after using all of Chu Yao's power and stimulating the Nine Orifices, it still hadn't reached the limit of the Nine Orifices.

However, the power this time was too immense. Long Chen felt his meridians again having that feeling of being about to burst, and they began to ache intensely.

"Hum."

A terrifying Saber Intent rose up, and the Severing Evil in Long Chen's hand began to hum crazily, filled with an indomitable desire for slaughter.

"Heaven-Opening!"

Long Chen shouted loudly, and the Severing Evil in his hand slashed down. As the Severing Evil moved, heaven and earth trembled. This was the strongest strike in Long Chen's history.

"Boom!"

The three attacks collided fiercely. Long Chen felt his arms shake violently, and he could no longer hold onto the Severing Evil, which was directly shaken away. His eardrums were filled with roaring sounds and he couldn't hear anything; his body flew backward, and blood sprayed out wildly.

When Long Chen recovered his vision, a huge pit had appeared on the ground. Below the pit, spring water gushed out, and the entire scene was plunged into a stupor because of this strike.

He couldn't hear anything with his ears; he could only see two other people in the distance, both standing there just as disheveled as he was.

Yin Luo's face was pale as paper, his aura dropping rapidly, with a look of shock on his face. Mo Nian was not much better; that strike just now had also exhausted his strength, and he was panting crazily.

Yin Luo took a deep breath, and a jade tablet suddenly appeared in his hand. When Long Chen saw that jade tablet, his expression couldn't help but change.

Because the shape of that jade tablet was basically the same as the one his parents had left him, only the color was different; the one in Yin Luo's hand was white, while Long Chen's was purple.

"Not good, this guy is trying to escape, stop him!"

After Mo Nian saw that jade tablet, his expression changed. He flicked his long bow, and an arrow flew out.

However, what left Mo Nian helpless was that his Spiritual Qi was completely exhausted, and he couldn't condense a powerful arrow. That arrow was no different from an ordinary arrow and posed no threat at all.

As expected, when the arrow reached Yin Luo, Yin Luo snorted coldly, moved a step to the side, and just like that, avoided it.

After avoiding Mo Nian's arrow, Yin Luo squeezed the jade tablet hard with his large hand, inputting the last trace of Spiritual Qi in his body into the jade tablet.

The jade tablet immediately emitted light, and the space surged. Behind him, a transparent portal slowly emerged.

Only then did Long Chen react from his shock; this guy had actually opened a portal.

He reached out and grabbed the Severing Evil lying beside him, rushing straight toward Yin Luo. Although Long Chen's Spiritual Qi was completely exhausted, and even the leaf Chu Yao had used to empower him had disappeared, Long Chen still had a bit of physical strength. As long as he reached Yin Luo, he could kill him with his saber.

This Yin Luo was too terrifying. If he and Mo Nian hadn't joined forces to block that strike just now, if it had just been him, the probability of him losing his life would have been very high.

Having such a rare opportunity, if he didn't kill him, Long Chen himself would feel regret. Therefore, he used all his strength to rush toward Yin Luo.

Looking at Long Chen rushing toward him, a trace of mockery appeared on the corner of Yin Luo's mouth, and he sneered, "Long Chen, I've remembered you. Next time we meet, I will definitely take your life."

Although his ears were still ringing and he couldn't hear what he was saying, judging by his lip movements and expression, he knew he was definitely posturing.

"Little Snow, take him down!"

Although his Spiritual Qi was exhausted, his Soul power was still there. He instantly contacted Little Snow, who was fighting in the distance.

"Whoosh."

Receiving Long Chen's message, Little Snow didn't even think and rushed over like a bolt of lightning. Seeing that the distance was about right, a huge wind blade flew out.

After finishing his words, Yin Luo coldly glanced at Long Chen and Mo Nian, made a throat-slitting gesture, and was about to walk toward the portal.

"Whoosh."

A huge wind blade came rushing toward him. It had to be said that Yin Luo was indeed Yin Luo; he was worthy of being a peerless expert. Even after the great battle, with his spiritual sense almost gone, he still reacted at the very moment the wind blade was about to hit his body, using his long spear to block it rapidly.

"Boom!"

If it were normal times, Yin Luo might have been able to ignore Little Snow's strike, but not now. Weakened, he was directly shaken away by Little Snow's wind blade, flying out like a rolling gourd.

With this delay, Long Chen had already rushed to the front. Looking at the horrified Yin Luo, Long Chen slashed down fiercely with his saber.
