A masked expert hidden in the void was forced out by Long Chen. With a flicker, Long Chen's figure flickered, and he was already standing before the man.
Before the man could react, his five fingers hooked like hooks, aiming straight for Long Chen's forehead. The masked expert was an Immortal King, but only a mortal Immortal King. He unleashed his immortal king's aura, trying to shake Long Chen away.
Unfortunately, his aura was meaningless in front of Long Chen. Not to mention an ordinary Immortal King, even a spirit-grade Immortal King could be ignored by Long Chen.
"Pfft!"
The man didn't even have time to draw his weapon before Long Chen's five fingers pierced through his crown, blood splattering everywhere. Long Chen shouted,
"Soul Stained by the Same Source."
The man's primordial spirit was crushed by Long Chen's crushing. Using his primordial spirit as a vessel, Long Chen activated a secret technique, and countless illusory figures appeared in the void.
These figures had originally been hidden in the void, making them invisible to people, but Long Chen detonated that person's primordial spirit, using his soul to find those whose cultivation techniques matched his fluctuations and exposed them.
Above the void, within the ruins, thousands of powerful figures were hidden. Although they were exposed, they were merely using their primordial spirits as a guide, outlining their blurry figures. Their faces were indistinguishable, nor could they sense their cultivation levels.
But that was already enough. When these figures appeared, the experts of the Tianhong Domain immediately went berserk, gritting their teeth and attacking these despicable assassins.
The assassins hidden in the void were also stunned; they hadn't expected Long Chen to possess such a terrifying secret technique.
What they didn't know was that Long Chen had learned this secret technique at the main academy, in the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion. At the time, Long Chen thought this technique was specially prepared for the Blood Slaughter Hall, though he had never used it before.
Because the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Hall were hiding in front of him, he would sense something. Unless they had no murderous intent toward Long Chen, no matter how they tried to hide it, they couldn't escape the Nine Star Overlord Body Technique's sensing.
Today, Long Chen used it to force all the hidden experts of the Blood Slaughter Hall to emerge.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, Long Chen opened his massive hand, the void trembled, and a fiery prison appeared out of thin air, covering ten thousand miles of emptiness. After the prison appeared, it rapidly shrank.
As it shrank, a figure appeared inside the fire prison—also a masked expert, but his aura was completely different from the people from the Blood Slaughter Hall.
"Die!"
Long Chen shouted sharply, his large hand gripping midair. The Ten-Thousand-Mile Fire Prison instantly shrank to the size of a fist, and the person inside the Flame Prison shattered instantly, turning to ashes.
At the same time, countless figures appeared, none fewer than those from the Blood Slaughter Hall.
"Nine Nether Hunter."
Long Chen's forehead veins bulged, and murderous intent overflowed in his eyes. The Nine Nether Hall and Blood Kill Hall had joined forces against him—these beasts.
"Kill!"
Seeing these people appear, Qin Feng roared and charged out first, slashing with his long blade. The nearest mortal Immortal King of the Blood Slaughter Hall was shattered by his strike. At this moment, Qin Feng was extremely brave, enough to rank among the top-tier powerhouses. Fighting at two tiers, he could easily slay a mortal Immortal King.
"Warriors of the Rainbow Domain, leave here at once. Don't make pointless sacrifices. The future of the Rainbow Domain needs you to rebuild. The spiritual fire of the Rainbow Fairy needs to be passed on. Keep your useful bodies and don't do useless things."
Seeing countless powerful figures from the Rainbow Domain charging recklessly toward the Nine Nether Hall and Blood Kill Hall to avenge their fallen predecessors, they were no match and fell in large numbers. Long Chen shouted loudly.
Long Chen's voice echoed throughout the ancient city. Hearing his shout, the powerful figures of the Tianhong Domain, their eyes reddened, ultimately chose to obey his orders, no longer making pointless sacrifices, and all left the battlefield.
They had seen Long Chen fight fiercely against foreign powerhouses and knew that if he stayed here, Long Chen would fear accidentally hurting them and hesitate to act freely, while the enemy ignored them. If Long Chen suffered greatly, he would suffer greatly.
"Long Chen, right? Let me meet you..."
A thin, masked expert with the Jiuyou Hall emblem on his sleeve charged at Long Chen. His aura was powerful—he was a spirit-grade Immortal King. As soon as he reached Long Chen, he suddenly vanished.
"Pfft!"
Long Chen slammed his palm forward. In his palm, a lotus pattern appeared. The void before him twisted, and with a loud explosion, blood mist filled the sky. The spirit-grade Immortal King of the Nine Nether Hall was killed by a single slap.
This man seriously underestimated Long Chen's combat experience. According to his routine, the moment he became invisible, eight figures would appear in eight directions around him.
Normal people would judge which of these eight figures is real. Each of these eight figures can be transformed into a body; if chosen wrong, death is certain.
Facing Long Chen, he used an even simpler and more direct method. All eight bodies were illusions, yet he attacked head-on, aiming to kill Long Chen the moment his mind shifted, giving him no chance to react.
But Long Chen completely ignored those eight clones and slapped the true self to death. This spirit-grade Immortal King from Jiuyou Hall had killed countless people in his lifetime, yet never understood why Long Chen didn't fall for it.
Of course, Long Chen wouldn't fall for it, because this person was stained with the blood of the Nine-Star heir, making him easier to identify than those from the Blood Slaughter Hall. It was no wonder Long Chen was fooled.
"Kill!"
Long Chen slapped the spirit-grade Immortal King of the Nine Nether Hall to death. The surrounding experts from the Nine Nether Hall and Blood Kill Hall shouted sharply and charged at Long Chen.
"Divine Ring appears!"
"Activate the battle body!"
Long Chen howled to the sky, his divine ring swirling behind him, a star map appearing, his entire body covered in golden dragon scales, and a violent wave of energy surged into the sky, a chilling killing intent sweeping across the world.
"Boom!"
Long Chen slashed down with his bone blade. The dozen or so spirit-grade Immortal King experts who charged ahead shook violently, blood spraying wildly, and were sent flying like rolling gourds.
Even among Spirit-grade Immortal Kings, their combat power was far inferior to the Spirit-grade Immortal King experts copied from the academy's trial grounds. Even with more than a dozen people working together, they couldn't withstand a single strike from Long Chen.
"Pfft"
After Long Chen's slash, another flame lotus appeared in his left hand. With a palm strike, the void shattered, and the flame lotus swallowed half the sky.
"Ah... The
spirit-grade Immortal Kings within the explosion range of the fire lotus screamed and were sent flying, their bodies engulfed in flames, burned like roasted pigs, while the mortal-grade Immortal Kings were instantly reduced to ashes.
"Puff, puff, puff... Long
Chen slashed horizontally, slaughtering groups of the Nine Nether Hall and Blood Killing Hall's experts. Long Chen stepped on the void, charging left and right like a Death Demon King. Wherever he passed, the experts of the Nine Nether Hall and Blood Kill Hall were slain one after another, their momentum unstoppable.
Meanwhile, over there, Bai Shishi stepped on a golden lotus, drew her golden sword, and swept through all who blocked her. Her attacks were even sharper and more terrifying than Long Chen's.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, heaven and earth trembled. From the ninth heaven, a divine light descended, enveloping the entire ancient city of the Tianhong Domain.
"Long Chen, right? Interesting. You killed Tian Mo, so today I'll have a chance to meet you." At that moment, a cold yet proud voice echoed from within the void.
