"Boom!"
Long Chen threw a punch down from the air, forcefully swallowing the heavens and causing the star river to tremble. The three elders had just forced Jiang Huixin back and were preparing to press the attack, but Long Chen was already charging at him like a war god descended from the heavens.
Long Chen's speed was too fast, carrying the momentum of speed. With a single punch, the void caved in widely, and the fierce punch wind enveloped the three of them.
Even the Three Flowers-level Earth Venerable experts couldn't see anything clearly before being struck by Long Chen's punch wind. The Great Dao runes shattered, and the howling waves swept up sand and stones, stirring up raging waves. The three Three Flower Earth Venerables were caught off guard and sent flying backward.
"Who is it?"
The three were shaken so hard their blood surged that they could not feel the pressure of a three-flower-level Earth Venerable. All three were terrified at the same time, and one shouted angrily.
And the one shouting was none other than a powerful figure from the Purple Thunder Empire, Weng Tianyao's master.
"Your father!"
A cold laugh echoed from the void. Suddenly, a pair of golden wings appeared, tearing open space and throwing a punch fiercely at Weng Tianyao's master.
When Weng Tianyao's master saw Long Chen, his eyes were filled with disbelief. He never dreamed that the one who shook them away was actually the Immortal King realm kid before him.
Seeing Long Chen throw a punch, he was both shocked and furious. He stabbed his longsword fiercely into Long Chen's chest, refusing to believe Long Chen would dare ignore his strike.
"Clang"
But Long Chen's punch didn't waver, but suddenly an invisible force bounced off his sword, causing it to deflect.
"Boom!"
Long Chen slammed his fist hard into Master Weng Tianyao's face, embedding it into the face. Countless cracks appeared on his head, nearly shattering him with a single punch.
Weng Tianyao's master focused all his strength on the sword, but unexpectedly, the sword was deflected by a mysterious force. Long Chen nearly blew his head off with a single punch.
Weng Tianyao's master was knocked out by a punch and instantly disappeared, flying off to an unknown spot.
"Unfortunately, just a little bit short." Long Chen secretly regretted this strike; he had almost landed this strike.
If Long Chen summoned the Dragon King battle body, this punch would surely crush him to dust. But when he summoned the Dragon King battle body, under the terrifying aura pulled by it, Weng Tianyao's master would develop a death sense and would never fight him head-on.
"Whoosh!"
The wings of the Kunpeng behind Long Chen trembled, and he instantly vanished, heading straight for Weng Tianyao's master.
"Three flowers converge, five energies rise in tide!"
Weng Tianyao's master was nearly smashed off by Long Chen's punch, breaking out in a cold sweat. With a roar, the three flowers trembled as the shattered skull rapidly healed.
At the same time, the three flowers behind him were engulfed in endless flames. At this moment, he dared not be careless anymore, even beginning to ignite the power of the three flowers, unleashing his full power.
Seeing Long Chen charging forward, he knew that if he passively counterattacked, he would face a storm of attacks like Long Chen's downforce.
Long Chen is a fierce attacker. Once he gains the upper hand, he will suppress the opponent until they are defeated, never giving them any chance to catch their breath.
Master Weng Tianyao was a formidable fighter who had fought countless battles and accumulated extensive combat experience. He knew that if he dodged, he would only die faster. He had to fight back, even if his body was still injured.
"Purple Lightning Piercing Clouds"
Weng Tianyao's master roared angrily, merging man and sword into one, the three flowers trembling. He actually charged at Long Chen on his own, unleashing the fiercest ultimate move. He fought desperately to buy himself a chance to catch his breath.
As long as he could drive Long Chen away, he could catch his breath, giving him a chance to heal and buy some time for his companions' rescue.
"Whoosh."
But what he never expected was that his desperate strike missed, and what Long Chen lunged at was a shadow.
"Not good."
At that moment, Weng Tianyao's master's hair stood on end, and a terrifying threat of death instantly enveloped him.
"Three Flowers Protection"
Weng Tianyao's master was shocked to discover that he had lost his sense of Long Chen. Long Chen was too fast, and his senses couldn't catch up. The Three Flowers above his head spread out, forming a huge shield of light on his body.
He couldn't sense Long Chen and didn't know from which direction Long Chen would attack. He could only defend from all directions, which would greatly reduce his defense.
There was no other way; he didn't dare take the risk. He was afraid that by the time he sensed Long Chen's position, it would be too late to defend himself.
"Buzz!"
Just as he was about to open his defense, Long Chen's claws hooked like hooks, piercing through his shield and stabbing straight at Master Weng Tianyao's head.
The shield shattered, scattering three flowers. Weng Tianyao's master spat out a mouthful of blood, but at the very moment the shield shattered, he finally sensed Long Chen and swung his longsword fiercely at him.
With a loud explosion, the long sword shook violently. One of Master Weng Tianyao's arms shattered, and the sword shot forward like a flying rainbow.
"Die!"
Just as Long Chen was about to strike mercilessly, two elders approached from afar—they were the two who had joined forces with Master Weng Tianyao.
Their speed couldn't compare to Long Chen's, but he still sensed them at a critical moment. Yet, facing them, Long Chen didn't even glance at them.
"Pfft!"
He kicked Weng Tianyao's master fiercely. Instinctively, Weng Tianyao's master raised his other arm to block, but Long Chen shattered him with a single kick.
It should be known that during the Vermilion Bird trial, Long Chen's flesh and blood power was increasing wildly, and even a three-flower-level Earth Venerable expert was far behind.
"Rumble... Long
Chen kicked Weng Tianyao's master's arm to pieces. Meanwhile, two Sanhua-level Earth Venerable experts charged in. Seeing Long Chen ignore them and instead attack Weng Tianyao's master, they were both shocked and furious. They were about to go all out to kill Long Chen.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the void collapsed, and two flaming longswords slashed down from above. It was Yu Qingxuan and Jiang Huixin who had arrived, striking simultaneously, aiming straight for their backs.
If the two of them went to kill Long Chen, the unprepared Long Chen might die, but likewise, they wouldn't survive.
The two were both shocked and furious, their hearts icy. They instantly understood that everything was within Long Chen's scheme, with the rhythm controlled to the brim.
Unless they wanted to trade their own lives for Long Chen's, but they truly couldn't, so in the end, they chose to resist.
"Boom boom!"
Two loud explosions rang out as Jiang Huixin's sword struck. The old man's blood sprayed wildly, and even the weapon in his hand cracked open. Clearly, none of them were a match for Jiang Huixin.
Jiang Huixin was very strong. If it were one-on-one, or even one-on-two, she would have been a sure winner. But facing three people, she suffered a heavy loss.
Meanwhile, Yu Qingxuan and the Sanhua-level expert exchanged fierce blows, their blood and energy surging from the shock. The opponent was also uncomfortable, as seven-colored flames burned on his body, rapidly draining his source power.
Jiang Huixin struck with her sword, and the three-flower-level Earth Venerable didn't dare to fight head-on in this state. Terrified, they hurriedly retreated. It wasn't that they didn't want to save lives, but they simply didn't have the strength.
"Pfft" Long Chen's
sharp claws hooked like hooks pierced into Master Weng Tianyao's skull. His master let out a piercing scream as his soul was being violently searched.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, Weng Tianyao's master exploded with a roar, turning into a mist of blood. Long Chen's expression changed drastically:
"Qingxuan, take care of yourselves. They're triggering the River of the Underworld to sacrifice. I'll go stop them first."
As he spoke, the wings on Long Chen's back trembled, transforming into a streak of light that shot away and vanished in an instant.
"The River of the Dead River sacrifice?"
When she heard that name, the usually calm Jiang Huixin's expression changed.
