Kaitian Reappears

Although the man in white had dodged Long Chen's strike, the terrifying gale shattered his hair tie. His long hair fell loose, and a trace of blood slowly flowed down his forehead. He had actually been injured.

"Seeing how you were boasting to the high heavens earlier, acting as if you were a god standing high above, it seems now that you cannot even withstand the strength of an ant. How truly regrettable."

Long Chen pointed his broadsword at the man in white and said coldly.

After Long Chen summoned his divine ring, his entire body's strength surged. At the same time, he frantically absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, causing his originally near-depleted Spiritual Qi to instantly skyrocket, recovering almost eighty percent.

It was a pity that the surrounding Spiritual Qi was limited; otherwise, he could have almost instantly refilled all his Spiritual Qi. However, even so, Long Chen was very satisfied.

Now that his divine ring was approaching completion, with the divine ring's enhancement, he felt as if he had inexhaustible strength and his Battle Intent was boiling.

He still knew too little about the divine ring, but he had now figured out that summoning the divine ring would cause his combat power to stack by several multiples.

It could be said that he was only in his strongest state when he summoned the divine ring. However, the divine ring state was too shocking, and unless it was an absolute last resort, Long Chen did not want to expose it. But now the situation was critical; if he didn't use it, everyone would die.

His father's serious injury made him abandon all concerns, and he truly erupted.

The halo appeared behind him, piercing straight through the firmament. His figure, like a god of war, shocked everyone's hearts.

Everyone had seen the combat power of the man in white earlier; even someone as strong as Long Tianxiao could not withstand a single strike from him.

Yet now, Long Chen had sent the man in white flying with a single sword strike, leaving him bloodied. Such a scene was too terrifying.

"Brother Long is too strong!"

Fatty Yu gulped hard and said with difficulty, forgetting even the pain of his own injuries.

Long Tianxiao also looked at Long Chen with a face full of shock. At this moment, the combat power Long Chen displayed was not inferior in the slightest to the man in white from the Sect.

Chu Yao bit her cherry lips lightly, looking at Long Chen with dazed, beautiful eyes. That person was the undefeated god of war in her heart.

"How can this be? What kind of Cultivation Technique is this?" The man in white seemed to have forgotten the injury on his head and said with a look of horror.

He felt unprecedented pressure from Long Chen. This was absolutely impossible. How could there be such a Genius in the mortal world?

A mere Ningxue Realm cultivator who hadn't undergone the cleansing of the Physical Body absolutely could not possess such terrifying combat power.

"An ant's Cultivation Technique. What? Are you interested?" A cold sneer appeared on Long Chen's face.

The man in white's expression turned cold, and he snorted, "Frog in a well! Even if you have a secret technique, so what? How long can you hold out? You still cannot escape your lowly fate! Go to hell!"

With a flick of his longsword, he unleashed a sky full of sword radiance, attacking Long Chen in an overwhelming manner.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom!"

Long Chen's broadsword flew, creating a sky full of sword shadows as he crazily traded blows with the man in white. The explosions shook the heavens, and the ground trembled incessantly.

Within a hundred-zhang radius, sand and stones flew, rapidly spreading outwards.

"Puff!"

One unlucky fellow, even though he was hundreds of zhang away, was still struck by a flying stone that pierced his thigh, bringing out a spray of blood.

Everyone let out a cry of alarm and retreated further away, as no one wanted to be the next unlucky fellow.

Within a radius of several dozen miles, only two battlefields were still fighting crazily. In the place where Great Master Yun Qi was fiercely fighting Wei Cang and Wang Luyang, flames towered into the sky, and heat waves rolled.

People witnessed the terror of Alchemy cultivators for the first time. Their Alchemy fire was too vigorous; even after fighting for such a long time, the power of the flames did not weaken in the slightest.

After all, when an Alchemy cultivator performs Alchemy, they need to continuously consume Alchemy fire. Especially with higher-grade Medicinal Pills, the time required to refine them is longer, sometimes taking several days.

Therefore, vigorous Alchemy fire is an essential foundation for an Alchemist. It can be said that an Alchemist's combat power is the most enduring.

On the other side, Long Chen and the man in white were fighting fiercely, their Battle Intent towering, and their Sword Qi surging, making those watching feel terrified.

"Long Chen is too powerful; this time, he is truly Heaven-Defying."

Someone could not help but exclaim in admiration. From a piece of trash, rising like a comet, starting from defeating Li Hao on the arena, Long Chen began his leap-style growth.

Now, he had consecutively killed Yijin Realm experts who were regarded as the Peak combat power of the Empire, and was even fighting against this terrifying monster before their eyes that almost exceeded people's cognition, shaking the heartstrings of everyone.

Some youths who had already viewed Long Chen as an idol gripped their fists tightly, vowing to become an expert like Long Chen.

"Boom!"

The two collided again, each retreating more than ten zhang, facing each other from a distance. The place where they were, within a thousand-zhang radius, was a mess. The ground looked as if it had been plowed, with gullies crisscrossing everywhere—all of them cut out by the Sword Qi.

"How is the strength of an ant?" Long Chen said coldly, looking at the man in white.

By now, the two had exchanged over a thousand blows. Long Chen clearly felt his physical strength declining and his Spiritual Qi beginning to run low, even with the divine ring's enhancement.

It was not that the divine ring was not powerful enough, but that the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was thin and could not keep up with the divine ring's absorption; the Spiritual Qi it could replenish for Long Chen was limited.

"Bastard!"

The man in white's composure had long since vanished. He would never have dreamed that in the mortal world, there would be a monster like Long Chen, a Ningxue Realm cultivator who could fight him, a Late Stage Yijin Realm Sect Disciple, to a standstill.

While this made him angry, it also stirred up deep jealousy. Looking at a Genius who was younger and had more potential than himself, he felt a deep killing intent.

The man in white shouted sharply. A ray of light appeared between his eyebrows, shining directly onto the longsword in his hand.

The longsword seemed to come alive, emitting a roar. Its body was filled with flowing light and vibrant colors, the radiance piercing the air. A sword radiance slashed down at Long Chen from the air.

"Flowing Light Sword!"

A beam of flowing light, almost as soon as the man in white's movement was executed, arrived in front of Long Chen. The speed was unparalleled.

By the time Long Chen became alert, it had already slashed to his front. Long Chen could not help but be terrified in his heart; it was the first time he had seen such a fast attack.

"Boom!"

A sword light over ten zhang long slashed heavily onto Long Chen, making everyone let out a cry of alarm.

Everything happened too fast. By the time they reacted, everything was already over. The light covered the sky, swallowing Long Chen.

They were evenly matched just a moment ago, and now he was killed in one strike? Everyone was stunned.

After the man in white slashed with his sword, his face turned pale as paper. That sword strike was his finishing move, and its power was terrifyingly peerless.

The power of that sword strike lay in its speed. By the time many people saw his movement, it was already too late to defend. The speed was just that terrifying, making it impossible to guard against.

This move was the man in white's trump card. Relying on this move, he had defeated many Disciples of the same rank within the Sect.

However, the consumption of this move was extremely terrifying, making even him unable to withstand it somewhat. But as long as he could kill Long Chen, everything was worth it.

Seeing the gullies ahead, the man in white was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when, suddenly, his pupils shrank.

"Boom!"

The ground cracked, and a figure flew out from within the earth.

"Long Chen!"

The whole scene was filled with cries of alarm; that person was indeed Long Chen.

At this moment, Long Chen was covered in mud, and there was a large pool of blood on his chest. He looked very disheveled, but he was still alive.

"How is that possible?"

The man in white looked at Long Chen with a face of disbelief. He could not believe that Long Chen could still be alive after enduring his strongest strike.

Long Chen patted the mud off his body, his heart also filled with terror. The strike just now was too terrifying; that kind of speed was impossible to block.

If it hadn't been for the critical moment where he instinctively used his sword to block in front of him and used his Spiritual Qi to protect his whole body, he would probably be a dead man by now.

His keen spiritual perception had saved his life once again. However, although he had blocked it, the terrifying power had shaken him, causing him to spit out three mouthfuls of blood while underground.

"To not return a favor is impolite; I will also give it a try."

Long Chen took a deep breath, and the broadsword in his hand slowly pointed towards the sky. With Long Chen's movement, the world seemed to suddenly become quiet, losing all sound, as if only Long Chen existed between heaven and earth.

A strange pattern appeared on the broadsword. Suddenly, the heavens and earth roared, space trembled incessantly, and endless killing intent shot straight into the clouds.

The man in white's expression changed drastically. Seeing this scene, he was horrified to discover that he had been locked onto by a terrifying Aura.

Long Chen was just a Ningxue Realm brat; it was impossible for him to lock onto an Yijin Realm expert. Therefore, the only explanation was that he had been locked onto by the battle skill Long Chen had activated.

"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

The man in white screamed wildly in his heart. To be able to allow a Ningxue Realm brat to lock onto him, an Yijin Realm expert, it must be an Earth Rank Intermediate or higher battle skill.

Usually, the Earth Rank battle skills that circulated in the mortal world were things that those Sects looked down upon, and were considered the trashiest things.

The battle skills in the Sect were all premium; although they were both Earth Rank Elementary, the power difference was too great, which was why the man in white's battle skill was so terrifying.

But even he, as a Sect Disciple, was not qualified to learn an Earth Rank Intermediate battle skill. That was a move that only Inner Sect Disciples could Cultivate. How could a brat from the mortal world possess such a powerful battle skill?

But even though he knew it was impossible, that terrifying Aura was firmly locked onto him; there was no mistake about it. The man in white was almost going crazy, frantically mobilizing the Spiritual Qi in his body to prepare to meet this strike.

Because he was locked onto, he could not avoid it. Once he dodged, it would only accelerate his defeat. At this moment, a palm-sized turtle shell appeared in the man in white's hand.

The turtle shell was snow-white, as if carved from jade, and had very strange patterns on it, carrying a terrifying Aura.

Long Tianxiao watched Long Chen raising his sword to pierce the sky, feeling the terrifying pressure on Long Chen's body, and could not help but have his heart beat wildly:

"What a terrifying Aura!"

Everyone quietly watched Long Chen. The world between heaven and earth was dead silent, losing all sound. In people's eyes, there was only one person and one sword.

"Hum!"

The broadsword in Long Chen's hand suddenly emitted a roar, and a will to split the heavens and crack the earth erupted, radiating for hundreds of miles around.

Before that will, people felt as if they were facing divine punishment, their hearts filled with panic, as if the world were about to be destroyed.

"Heaven Splitting!"

The longsword in Long Chen's hand slashed down with roaring thunder.
