When Long Chen's Purgatory Eye was activated, the entire world suddenly darkened. At that moment, a violent, dark, and slaughtering aura swept across the heavens.
Even Guo Ran and Xia Chen felt a chill down their spines. Long Chen, with the Eye of Purgatory open, looked like a demon from hell, intent on slaughtering all living beings, inspiring deep fear from the depths of the soul.
"Three Flowers Break the Void"
When the Eye of Purgatory opened, a three-petal flower pattern appeared in Long Chen's left eye. As the petals spun, the space before Long Chen's eyes twisted in an instant, and the heavenly net formed by the power of faith was twisted open by the dark force.
"How is that possible?"
When Liao Bencang saw this scene, he couldn't help but cry out in surprise. Even with his experience, he couldn't believe that Long Chen possessed such terrifying power to suppress his faith.
Long Chen used the Purgatory Eye to activate Bai Xiaole's Three-Flower Eyes secret technique. The divine light directly pierced through the invincible Faith Net. Xia Chen and Guo Ran were overjoyed, but their expressions quickly changed:
"Boss"
because they noticed blood flowing from Long Chen's left eye, It looks extremely frightening.
"Let's go!"
Long Chen closed his left eye, opened his right, and said to the two.
"Buzz"
Xia Chen had already prepared the formation disk. The three rushed out of the sky net, and Xia Chen immediately activated the array. The three were instantly enveloped by divine light, disappearing.
When Liao Bencang attacked Long Chen, Long Chen had already made arrangements. Xia Chen teleported him to the edge of the Sky Net, he broke through it, and Guo Ran was responsible for blocking Liao Bencang.
When the net was broken, Xia Chen's formation plate activated just as it happened, and everything worked together seamlessly.
"Boom!"
A long sword pierced through the sky—it was Liao Bencang's attack. Unfortunately, his attack was still a step too late, and the three figures had long since vanished.
"Damn it!"
Liao Bencang was furious, letting three people escape. Looking at the now-vanished Jiuyou Island, and at the faith power that had become less pure from excessive consumption, his face twisted as he let out a thunderous roar:
"Long Chen, you little beast, just you wait! I will tear you to pieces!"
...
"Pfft!"
Long Chen, Xia Chen, and Guo Ran flew out of the void, all coughing up blood at once. Liao Bencang's strike missed them, shattering the void and disrupting teleportation. They were pulled by spatial power and nearly dragged into the spatial turbulence, all of them sustained varying degrees of injury.
"This bastard, how is he so strong?"
Guo Ran wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. That supreme arm was in so much pain it couldn't be lifted, and he couldn't help but speak anxiously and angrily.
Although Guo Ran had heard Long Chen say that powerhouses like Enpuda and Liao Bencang were not yet someone they could handle right now.
But he never expected that just one of Liao Bencang's clones would have killed all three of them. If Long Chen hadn't destroyed Skynet, the three of them would have died today. Liao Bencang was ridiculously strong.
Guo Ran had just obtained the Supreme Arm and was full of confidence, even disregarding half-step Divine Venerable-level powerhouses, believing that only Divine Venerables were qualified to fight him.
But in the battle with Liao Bencang, he found himself instantly reverted to his original form, a feeling that left him both frustrated and frustrated.
Xia Chen also looked terrified; he hadn't expected a Realm King to be so terrifying—it was just too monstrous.
Long Chen took out an eye mask, wrapped his left eye, and said calmly, "There's nothing strange about it. If they weren't divine cultivators, old guys like Liao Bencang and Enpuda would have already advanced to Divine Venerable."
Although their realm remains at the Realm King realm, their strength is no weaker than those at the Divine Sovereign level. Don't be fooled by their realm.
For countless millennia, they have widely recruited followers, trained disciples, and gathered the power of faith. As the saying goes, 'No gain, no rise early.' Do you think their efforts are all in vain?
That power of faith is the result of countless generations working together; with their own strength, they laid the foundation beneath Liao Bencang's feet.
Every practitioner is like a tree; we can only see the surface of the tree, but the roots buried in the soil are invisible to us.
On the surface, Liao Bencang is at the Realm King Realm, but his roots beneath the soil are even stronger than those of Divine Venerable Realm experts. Realm doesn't mean everything. If you see him as a Divine Venerable Realm expert, wouldn't you feel much more at ease? Long
Chen's left eye hurt sharply, but with the mask that Bai Xiaole's mother had made herself, he felt much better.
This was Long Chen's first time using the Eye of Purgatory to activate his skill. His Eye of Purgatory contained boundless power, but unlike Bai Xiaole's Three-Flower Eyes, it was exceptionally fragile.
Long Chen's Purgatory Eye seemed to be just a window for him to use dark power. Using dark power was fine, but condensing dark power into divine abilities would injure his eyes. Even now, Long Chen still hadn't figured out how to use the Purgatory Eye.
Using the Eye of Purgatory meant Long Chen was afraid of awakening his inner demons, so unless absolutely necessary, he would never use it.
After using the Eye of Purgatory this time, the eye would have to rest for a long time. After a brief rest, Xia Chen teleported several more times, and the three of them finally found a quiet place to heal.
In this battle, aside from his eyes, Long Chen had no other injuries. However, within Liao Bencang's domain, his strength was useless, and he fought very frustratingly.
Guo Ran and Xia Chen were more seriously injured. Because Xia Chen was a talisman cultivator, his body was weak. Even with talisman support, he still couldn't withstand Liao Bencang's power.
But the most serious was Guo Ran. To buy Long Chen that chance, his supreme arm was nearly shaken off, and the runes on his body were loosened by the impact.
However, Guo Ran was indeed formidable, able to single-handedly withstand Liao Bencang's full-force strike. Looking across the land, he was more than capable of standing above all others.
Long Chen had fully recovered in just half a day, began guarding the two of them, and kept refining pills.
This battle gave Long Chen a huge sense of crisis. Although he had tried to overestimate the strength of Liao Bencang and Enpuda, he was still shocked by Liao Bencang's power.
The power of faith was practically a cheating force. Their escape this time was largely due to luck, mainly for two reasons: one was that Liao Bencang came as a clone, and the other was that when his clone descended, he didn't have a domain artifact.
Long Chen didn't know what restrictions this avatar had descended. If Liao Bencang had a domain divine weapon on him back then, the three of them working together would have been wiped out in one strike. Thinking back now, he felt a wave of fear.
When he summoned the seven-colored divine ring, it stretched open the heavens and earth, unafraid of Liao Bencang's faith power. But in the end, because it was too weak, the purple divine ring was crushed. When the purple ring exploded, Long Chen immediately felt a mountain of pressure, suffocating.
"It seems that as long as my Seven-Colored Divine Ring is fully mastered, I won't have to fear his faith domain anymore. I need to hurry." Long Chen's expression grew grave; the battle with Liao Bencang had given him a great sense of crisis.
