Long Chen swept across the battlefield with a single strike, shaking the heavens. Just as both sides were stunned, Long Chen had already stepped across the battlefield, charging toward Jiang Yiming like a bolt of lightning.
"Buzz"
Long Chen didn't waste any more words. The Dragonbone Evil Moon, brimming with boundless killing intent, slashed down swiftly, aiming straight for Jiang Yiming's head.
Seeing Long Chen charging in, Jiang Yiming was both shocked and furious. He had wondered where this guy had gone before, but now, seeing Long Chen wielding a serrated long blade, he slashed down at Long Chen and shouted loudly:
"You coward, have you finally come out?"
"Your mouth is so foul, you beast who betrays your master and ancestors." Long Chen snorted coldly, the Dragonbone Evil Moon shrouded in black mist, murderous intent surging to the heavens.
"Boom!"
The Dragon Bone Evil Moon slashed at the serrated blade, a thunderous explosion echoed, divine sounds rumbled, the earth trembled, and Long Chen and Jiang Yiming retreated simultaneously.
"What?"
All the powerful beings present were shocked. Long Chen, a mere Saint King, was actually going head-to-head with Jiang Yiming, the Four-Branch Human Emperor.
It should be noted that Jiang Yiming is a super genius of Tianyu City, once groomed as the future successor. Although he is a four-lineage Human Emperor, his strength is no less than that of the six-branch emperors.
The disciples of Tianyu City were overwhelmed with excitement at the sight, their blood surging. Long Chen had become so powerful—now Tianyu City was saved.
Jiang Yiming was also stunned. His chest trembled faintly from Long Chen's strike, and his arm was still numb. The power of Long Chen's strike was truly terrifying—Jiang Yiming had never seen such terrifying power before.
"Crack!"
Just as Jiang Yiming was both shocked and furious, the long blade in his hand suddenly broke, and it was actually broken by the Dragon Bone Evil Moon.
"Whoosh" Long Chen's
figure flickered, startling Jiang Yiming into retreating rapidly. However, to everyone's surprise, Long Chen did not lunge at him. Instead, while everyone was stunned, he instantly broke through their blockade and appeared beside Chu He.
"Senior, sorry for being late. Leave the rest to me!" Long Chen didn't wait for Chu He to speak, placing one hand on Chu He's back.
"Buzz"—
above Chu He's head, the Qiankun Cauldron appeared, and a divine light descended. Chu He immediately felt a powerful spatial force enveloping him, and Long Chen instantly teleported him to the defensive fortification.
When Chu He returned, the strong figures of Tianyu City erupted in cheers. Chu He was the spiritual pillar of Tianyu City. As long as he was alive, the city's strong people had a backbone and felt at ease.
"Young friend Long Chen, though Chu He is old, he still has the chance to fight. Let us, the old and the young, fight side by side, sweep away the villains, and eliminate the traitors!" Chu He was now covered in blood, but Old Tiger's heroic spirit remained, and he shouted loudly.
He knew how terrifying those people were, and worried that Long Chen wouldn't be able to handle them alone. If two people fought together, their chances of victory would be higher.
From that strike just now, he could see Long Chen's strength was astonishing. But no matter how powerful he was, he was still only a Saint King, and he was young and hot-headed, easily falling into enemy traps.
The stronger Long Chen became, the more anxious he became. Long Chen was the hope of Tianyu City. If anything happened to him, they would have no chance to turn the tables.
He would rather exhaust all his life to minimize danger, so that even if he died, he could close his eyes in peace.
"Rest assured, senior. I never do anything I am not confident about. I owe Tianyu City such a great favor. If I cannot repay it, I will not be able to eat or sleep peacefully.
With no way to repay, I'll help Tianyu City wipe out the Stone Spirit Clan and the Golden Lion Clan, and completely eliminate the aftermath of Tianyu City! Long Chen replied loudly.
"Hahaha, what an arrogant attitude, and you think you can do it?" On the battlefield, Jiang Yiming laughed bitterly in anger.
"What a big talk!"
Next to Jiang Yiming stood a ten-zhang tall rock giant, wielding a golden warhammer, its eyes fixed on Long Chen. The vast aura of a sovereign made the void buzz.
This powerful member of the Stone Spirit clan exuded a terrifying aura; he was a seven-vein emperor-level powerhouse, the current clan leader of the clan and the strongest of the clan.
"Damn it, you dare insult the mighty Golden Lion Clan. Today, you will die without a grave." The old lion of the Golden Lion clan also stepped forward; it is the only golden lion that can speak human language.
But this old golden lion was not the clan leader. The clan leader was a huge golden-haired lion with a tuft of red fur on its head.
This golden-haired lion was also a seven-vein emperor-level beast, its pressure overwhelming. Its eyes locked onto Long Chen, as if it wanted to devour them all.
Although they spoke with utter contempt toward Long Chen, they were highly focused, their bodies tense, each occupying the best attack positions to tightly surround Long Chen. Clearly, their hearts were filled with tension.
"Last time I lost so badly that my mindset nearly collapsed. I'm sorry, but for the sake of Master Long San's future, I can only use you as punching bags. Let's see if I can regain some confidence."
Long Chen shifted his gaze to look around, watching these powerful figures. Dragon Bone Xie Yue carried it on his shoulder, shifting half a step back with his left foot, knees slightly bent, shoulders bowed and back rounded.
"Buzz buzz buzz...
At Long Chen's feet, vortices appeared, air currents rising, stirring his black robe and long hair, and his overwhelming fighting spirit ignited in an instant.
"Eight-Star Battle Body—Open!"
Long Chen roared angrily, divine sound resounding throughout heaven and earth, shaking eternity. Behind him, an eight-colored divine ring lit up, eight stars appeared, and the vast starry sky appeared behind him.
"Boom!"
Long Chen's aura erupted, waves of energy surging into the sky. In that moment, Long Chen seemed to stand atop a volcanic crater, with fierce winds rolling and tearing through the sky, spreading in all directions.
The group of powerful figures surrounding Long Chen were struck by the terrifying shockwave, instantly feeling as if they were caught in a raging storm. Even the dignified Six Meridian Emperors involuntarily took several steps back.
Only the chiefs of the Stone Spirit Clan and the Golden Lion Clan swayed slightly, barely steadying themselves. Their eyes were filled with shock; they couldn't imagine how such immense energy could be hidden within the body of a small Saint King.
At this moment, the spiritual root fire in Long Chen's dantian flickered continuously. The three-flower-shaped immortal divine diagram beneath the spiritual root appeared faintly. As the spiritual root fire burned, the power of the star sea boiled, continuously flowing into Long Chen's limbs and bones. At that moment, Long Chen was filled with strength.
"Buzz buzz buzz...
The entire world trembled because of Long Chen's power. The rhythm of heaven and earth changed because of Long Chen's aura. Long Chen stood atop the void, his long hair flying, his black robe fluttering, like a war god who looked down on the heavens descending to the mortal world, and all worlds could only submit beneath his feet.
At that moment, the disciples of Tianyu City trembled with excitement upon seeing this scene. In each person's mind, there was an invincible war god, but Long Chen's current state was exactly that form.
"Let's do it together!"
Jiang Yiming roared, fear flashing in his eyes. Long Chen's strength far exceeded his expectations.
"Pfft"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Evil Moon of the Dragonbone tore through the void, and Jiang Yiming's head shot into the sky.
