The elderly man in the strange robe was surrounded by immortal energy, yet showed no soul fluctuation. After the Eastern Wilderness Bell's reminder, Long Chen realized it was actually a corpse, though its appearance was completely unrecognizable.
"This is an immortal corpse puppet, transported from the Immortal Realm. It seems this Sealing Immortal Hall is the hidden trump card of the divine race.
Everyone who could have opened it was killed by you, but now you accidentally opened it. Your luck is ...." Even the Donghuang Bell was speechless.
Originally, this trump card should have been aborted, but now Long Chen had uncovered it. Long Chen had always been unlucky, and it seemed nothing had improved until now.
After the elderly man in the unusual clothes came out, his eyes swept around. His eyes were empty as he suddenly looked at Long Aotian.
"This old servant greets the master." The elderly man in strange clothes suddenly knelt before Long Aotian.
Long Aotian was startled and suddenly thought of something. He took out a dragon-shaped token from his pocket and spat a mouthful of fresh blood onto it. In an instant, a dragon-shaped pattern appeared on the forehead of the elderly man dressed in unusual robes, identical to the token.
"Kill him for me."
Long Aotian shouted loudly. Only now did he remember that his mother had held an important meeting with the Divine Clan Holy Lords a few days ago, and that day after, she brought her a token.
Long Aotian's mother told him that this token was a major secret of the Divine Clan and asked him to keep it safe.
Now, seeing the elderly man in the strange robe, his token sensed it. Indeed, the essence blood was attached to it, and the old man in the strange robe regained some consciousness, his eyes no longer so vacant.
"Buzz!"
After Long Ao Tianxia Command, the old man didn't hesitate at all. With a movement of his foot, no one knew what movement technique he used, but he appeared before Long Chen like a ghost, moving at incredible speed.
The elderly man in the strange robe smashed his fist down at Long Chen. It looked like a casual punch, yet it caused a massive collapse of space.
"Such a powerful physique."
Long Chen was startled. This was pure physical strength, something he had never seen before.
That terrifying physical strength also ignited Long Chen's fighting spirit. Facing that strike, he neither dodged nor evaded, blocking it with a single punch.
"Boom!"
The two punches collided, producing a thunderous explosion. Long Chen and the old man's sleeves shattered simultaneously, fluttering in the void like butterflies.
Boundless shockwaves erupted from where their fists met, causing the stars across the heavens to tremble. This was the most terrifying collision.
People watched nervously at Long Chen and the elder in strange robes. Their fists met, and in the void, black threads appeared—a terrifying spatial rift.
Long Chen's fist was covered in dragon scales, runes swirling on them, and the divine light rippled within them, containing boundless power.
Only when the old man's sleeve shattered did people see that his arm was covered with strange runes. These runes emitted strands of immortal light, and their fists clashed in the void, their violent power making the space hum.
Long Chen stood firm in the void, unmoving like a mountain. No matter how the old man in the strange robes gathered his strength, he could not shake him in the slightest.
However, Long Chen was also deeply shocked. This old man in the strange clothes possessed extremely strange powers, also a power not belonging to this world.
Dong Huang Zhong transmitted to Long Chen, "This person was sealed in the Immortal Realm and passed down as a puppet into the next realm. Because of the Wall of Sighs, it's very difficult for them to survive and come down."
But the dead are relatively simpler, though even puppets need a certain level of intelligence to unleash their combat power.
Therefore, these immortal corpses are carefully selected because the cost of another round is too high.
That Immortal Hall should be his dwelling, and only there could he maintain the immortal energy within his body from deteriorating too quickly.
However, once the battle starts, his immortal energy will slowly drain away, and he won't be able to resupply it anymore. As long as you can keep up with him, you'll likely gain the upper hand. "
What kind of cultivation level does this person have?" Long Chen asked.
"According to the realm divisions of the Tianwu Continent, he should be at the eleventh level of Fusion Heaven, which is the Saint Realm." Dong Huang Zhong replied.
"Saint Realm, this strong?" Long Chen was startled.
"You have to remember, he came down from the Immortal Realm, and the laws there are completely different from here.
They are born nourished by the energy of immortal spirits; what they eat, drink, and breathe all have fundamental differences. You can't judge the Immortal Realm by the standards here. "Dong Huang Zhong replied.
"Buzz!"
The elderly man in the strange robe had been struggling with Long Chen in a wooden standstill, unable to push him back more than a dozen times. Suddenly, his mouth opened wide, and he spat out a beam of sword light, aiming straight for Long Chen's brow.
The strike came so suddenly that Long Chen instinctively dodged, but the sword light dodged it, but the man was knocked back by the elder in strange robes.
"Watch out,"
Donghuang Bell suddenly warned. Long Chen sensed danger and threw a punch behind him without looking back.
Long Chen's arm shook violently, smashing into the fist of the elderly man in strange clothes. At some point, another old man had appeared behind Long Chen.
It wasn't a clone, but another immortal corpse. Only then did Long Chen notice that the palace's doors opened, revealing countless coffins, packed tightly with countless coffins.
One of the coffins was opened, and Long Aotian was there, forming hand seals.
"He's about to release all the immortal corpses. Stop him quickly." Dong Huang Zhong reminded him.
While Donghuang Zhong was speaking, seven more coffins were opened, and seven people dressed in unusual clothes charged in.
"Boom boom boom... Long
Chen was besieged by nine immortal corpses, thrown into chaos. He tried to rush through, but was blocked by those corpses.
"Long Chen, you didn't expect it, did you? The foundation of our Divine Clan is terrifying. There are thirty thousand immortal corpse puppets here, enough to destroy the entire Tianwu Continent. Today, I'll summon half of them to deal with you. Let's see how long you can hold out." Long Aotian sneered.
He held the token, continuously pouring his essence blood into it. Coffins were opened one after another, awakening the immortal corpses inside with his spiritual blood, all rushing toward Long Chen.
"Six-Star Battle Body appears."
Suddenly, Long Chen shouted sharply. Behind him, six stars lit up in the divine ring, forming a hexagonal pattern. The six stars trembled, and the star map seemed to boil over.
"Boom!"
Long Chen threw a punch, sending one immortal corpse flying. After being sent flying, the runes on its body rapidly dimmed.
With this punch, Long Chen exhausted all his immortal energy. Without the protection of the runes, he quickly turned into a corpse, rapidly rotting in the air before finally falling to the ground.
"Boom boom boom... Long
Chen summoned a six-star battle body, both swinging to surround his immortal corpsesAfter being blasted away and activating the star map, the six-star battle body became even more ferocious.
"Today, I'll smash your broken hall."
Long Chen snorted coldly, stepped forward, and rushed straight toward the Immortal Palace. But just as Long Chen moved, the Eastern Wilderness Bell suddenly cried out:
"Not good, hurry back to the Tianwu Continent!"
