"Rumble rumble rumble ..."
Long Chen's scales glowed, each scale shining with a star, each star burning with flames, endless divine light blossoming, auspicious clouds erupting, and heaven and earth resonating together.
"Such terrifying divine fire power."
Bai Shishi stared at Long Chen in shock. She had never seen or heard of it—the power of a person's divine fire actually started burning from the surface of the body.
You should know that the power of divine fire in a normal cultivator originates from the dantian and erupts from the inside out, so that the power of the divine fire does not leak out.
If it erupts outside the body, most of the power will dissipate into the world, rendering it completely useless.
"Boom!"
Zhao Wuzheng, facing the sudden upheaval, was shaken back by the overwhelming power of the sea.
"Crack, crack, crack... The
entire hall began to crack, web-like cracks spreading rapidly. Long Chen's violent divine power rampaged wildly, causing the hall to swell.
"No..."
The powerful figures inside the hall stared at Long Chen in terror. Long Chen's aura kept rising, and their bodies were crushed by divine might. They leaned against the stone wall, unable to move, their bodies crushed.
"Puff puff puff...
The immense pressure was like the sole of a giant, crushing the ants. Those strong beings howled in fear, but it did nothing to change their fate. They were crushed one after another. Only the relatively stronger cultivators were still struggling to hold on, but it seemed they wouldn't last much longer.
Zhao Wuzheng, Xie Tianyu, Chu Yang, and the others were both shocked and furious. Long Chen's strength far exceeded their imagination.
Among them, the most terrifying assassin was easily taken down by Bai Shishi, catching them completely off guard.
You have to know, with that assassin around, they can avoid fighting Bai Shishi to the death. His assassination technique is his trump card against her.
However, they hadn't expected that their schemes would be seen through by Long Chen, and it was clear that the assassin from the Blood Kill Hall was the most threatening presence among everyone.
Whether it was Long Chen or Bai Shishi, if they went all out against the enemy, the assassin's sudden attack could easily cause heavy damage or even assassination.
If they wanted to guard against that assassin, they couldn't go all out. The two of them were going to suffer heavy losses against so many top experts, so that assassin was Long Chen's top choice.
When Long Chen bestowed the "Divine Liquid" upon them, he mixed it with medicinal powder. The powder was non-toxic, yet it could make one's aura impossible to hide, effectively marking it.
Long Chen told Bai Shishi about that special mark, so she could accurately determine the assassin's location.
That assassin from the Blood Kill Hall hid in the void after Long Chen revealed his true face, waiting for the right moment to strike.
But this poor guy still didn't know that every move he made was exposed right in front of Bai Shishi.
His original goal was to kill Bai Shishi, but after drinking the "Divine Liquid," he flew into a rage and changed his strategy to Long Chen.
At that time, Long Chen was indeed the best choice for Zhao Wuzheng, deliberately choosing a good opportunity to unleash his power, causing Bai Shishi and the others to stagger backward.
At that time, Bai Shishi was retreating on a normal trajectory, just passing by the assassin. The perfect opportunity came to his door, so he quietly adjusted his body and found the best angle to assassinate.
But just as he had this idea, Bai Shishi slashed down with her sword. This poor assassin, a super powerhouse, didn't even get a chance to act, or even reveal his name, before being taken down as a random passerby. The frustration he felt was hard to understand.
Now that the assassin was gone, they could only rely on their true strength to kill Long Chen and Bai Shishi. But with Long Chen unleashing his full power, they were swept away by the shockwave and couldn't get close at all.
The disciples were continuously crushed by the shockwaves, both shocked and furious. If they also unleashed their full power, everyone here except the few of them would be crushed to death.
"This can't go on. We have to go all out. If we don't kill Long Chen and Bai Shishi quickly, everyone in the passage will be wiped out by their own people. They've already set traps."
Should you save the people in front of you or the millions in the passage? You need to think carefully. "Chu Yang shouted loudly.
Of the hundreds of thousands of powerful warriors in the main hall, fewer than eighty thousand are still struggling to hold on, while millions of disciples in the passage are desperately seeking help. Clearly, their situation is just as dire.
"We can't worry about that anymore. Let's kill them together. We can't let them lead us by the nose."
Gritting his teeth, Zhao Wuzheng was the first to charge forward. At the moment he charged, his blood surged, forming a mist of blood around him. As he reached Long Chen, the mist ignited all over his body.
As the blood mist ignited, a furious roar echoed through the heavens and earth, as if a ferocious beast from ancient times had been awakened. Zhao Wuzheng's divine might suddenly multiplied several times in that instant.
"Puff puff puff..."
As Zhao Wuzheng unleashed his full power, he ravaged together with Long Chen's power. The experts from the five major powers were instantly in despair. Under the double pressure, tens of thousands of people were instantly shattered into a mist of blood.
"Long Chen, prepare to die."
Zhao Wuzheng roared. With his full power, all disciples from the five major factions were killed. The space here was too small—these disciples didn't even have a place to escape.
Among these people were Zhao Wuzheng's relatives and his most loyal subordinates. Unfortunately, he could not protect them and could only vent all his hatred on Long Chen.
"Buzz!"
Zhao Wuzheng roared angrily, punching down. The piercing sonic boom mixed with rolling shockwaves covered heaven and earth, like a giant god's hammer crashing down on Long Chen. The force of the punch was unstoppable.
"Just you?"
Long Chen sneered. At this moment, his entire body was glowing with stars, as if clad in a layer of starlight armor. With the dragon scales providing cushioning, he could now control the star fire.
However, unlike others, more than half of his Starfire had dissipated into the air.
This wasn't because Long Chen had a problem with his control; he did it on purpose. Even with the Dragon Scales buffering, he couldn't withstand the full power of 108,000 stars. He had to waste part of it to avoid injury; otherwise, if all the power was locked, Long Chen would be unable to withstand it and explode.
Yet even so, Long Chen could still feel the endless power bestowed by the 108,000 stars within him. Seeing Zhao Wuzheng charging forward, he stepped on the void and threw a punch. The starlight on his fist trembled, and the space collapsed because of this punch.
"Boom!"
The void shattered, the explosion shattered the heavens, and a tidal wave of power poured forth. The grand hall instantly shattered, and smoke and dust soared upward, piercing through the earth.
The figures of Bai Shishi, Xie Tianyu, Chu Yang, Lü Chunyang, Zhen Meilian, and Lu Zihao shot out from the dust. Chu Yang and the others wore expressions of shock, while Bai Shishi's beautiful eyes held a hint of surprise.
She hadn't expected Long Chen to be so powerful. This greatly eased her pressure. The two of them together could take on six people.
"Hahaha... "
Long Chen stood above the void, laughing heartily toward the sky. His entire body shone with dazzling starlight, like a war god looking down on the world.
"After holding back for so long, you can finally hold your head high. Today, use your blood to write the chapter of Long Sanye's rise."
