"Boom boom!"
Two consecutive explosions rang out. Luo Changwu and Luo Changwen each charged to one of the totem poles, their bodies filled with purple blood. With a single sword strike, both totem pillars shattered.
Luo Changwen and Luo Changwu truly deserved to be the top experts of the Luo clan. If they unleashed their full power, the Chu family's first-generation experts would have no strength to stop them. They knew they had to destroy the altar, or things would be bad.
So as soon as the two made their move, they immediately unleashed all their firepower, without any entanglement, heading straight for the altar.
With a loud explosion, Long Chen slashed horizontally, the sharp blade whistling past. The Chu family experts blocking him shattered one after another. The strike was unstoppable, smashing heavily into the totem pole. After the Chu family expert risked his life to block it, the force of the strike was reduced by more than half. But after a moment of explosion, the totem pillar still cracked, and then the entire altar began to dimm.
Long Chen glanced at Luo Changwu and Luo Changwen, seeing that the two had already charged toward another altar, with other Luo family experts protecting them as they charged forward.
Long Chen immediately turned and rushed toward another altar. As long as the altar was destroyed, the Chu family's plan would be completely ruined.
"Stop them... a
powerful figure roared and charged up to Long Chen. Suddenly, his entire aura surged, startling Long Chen.
"Boom!"
The first-generation Divine Lord realm expert actually self-destructed right in front of him, his terrifying blood energy erupting like a volcano.
A first-generation Divine Lord realm powerhouse self-destructed, releasing all his life's power in an instant. That was the strongest strike of their lives. Long Chen was shaken back by the terrifying force, his legs carving a deep trench into the ground, blood and energy surging, and he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Long Chen hadn't expected that the Chu family also had ruthless people willing to use their own lives to buy time.
"Pfft" At that moment,
another first-generation Divine Lord realm expert lunged at Long Chen. Long Chen slashed swiftly, shattering him before he could self-destruct in time.
"Boom boom boom boom...
Luo Changwu and Luo Changwen were doing the same. The Chu family experts seemed to go mad, self-destructing wildly and forcing the Luo family experts to retreat.
"Bastard... The
Grand Elder roared, about to charge forward, but Luo Changwu grabbed him. Fighting head-on now would only bring disadvantage.
"Ss s s..."
At that moment, a rain of arrows poured down. The Soul-Chasing Wooden Arrows appeared once again, and a small squad of archers returned. After a barrage of arrows, hundreds of Chu family experts fell to the ground.
It turned out that Qin Feng had been directing others to resist the Chu family's reinforcements, but seeing the situation was critical, he made a quick decision and sent a hundred men to assist.
This move was highly effective, catching the Chu family experts off guard. Because they were unprepared, they suffered a heavy loss. Luo Changwu and the others felt much less pressure, and with the support of the archers, they charged forward swiftly.
"Die!"
The Chu family's powerful warriors were bloodthirsty, some of them frantically charging at the Luo clan archers, determined to kill these troublesome fools.
A chill ran through Long Chen's heart. He knew these Luo family disciples were finished, and no one could save them now. He and Luo Changwu had to destroy the remaining two altars as soon as possible, while Qin Feng, facing countless powerful opponents, was already retreating step by step and couldn't hold out much longer.
The Luo family disciples remained calm in the face of death, their longbows trembling continuously as they fired arrow after arrow.
They knew they were doomed, but killing one more person before dying was already a win.
"Die... The
Chu family experts roared. Many of them had been killed, but a few still charged into the archer ranks.
"Puff puff puff... A
hundred archers were all killed in a few breaths, yet not a single one made a sound. Every disciple of the Luo clan was an unyielding warrior.
Long Chen gritted his teeth, murderous intent burning in his eyes. Wielding his black blade, he charged forward, lightning flashing beneath his feet. He dashed left and right, and with every swing, a powerful figure was surely slain, rapidly closing in on the altar.
At this moment, no ultimate move was effective; it relied solely on the most basic moves. Without Luo Zichuan's guidance, Long Chen would have suffered a heavy loss in this state.
But now, in front of so many first-generation Divine Lord Realm experts, Long Chen still excelled in both offense and defense, killing his way and rapidly closing in on the altar.
The Chu family experts charged forward one after another, frantically self-destructing to block Long Chen's advance. Long Chen didn't even have a chance to summon his battle body; his long blade flew as he drew closer and closer to the altar.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a dark shadow shot up from Long Chen's body. Lei Ling'er broke free from him and flew straight toward the altar. Everyone's attention was focused on Long Chen; they hadn't expected anyone else to break through.
At this distance, by the time they reacted, Lei Ling'er had already reached the altar. She wielded a black sharp sword, slashing it against the altar. With a loud explosion, the altar shattered, turning into billowing dust.
Long Chen was so angry he wanted to slap his own mouth. He had actually forgotten that Lei Ling'er had already taken human form and could have left him to fight. If Lei Ling'er hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten about it.
Lei Ling'er transformed into a thunder maiden, slashing the altar with a single sword strike, then turning into a streak of light that charged straight toward another altar.
"Puff puff puff...
Any powerful figure who stood in her way, whether first-generation or ordinary Divine Lord experts, was shattered into dust.
"Block her... "
Boom boom boom..."
The Chu family's powerful figure self-destructed wildly, creating a large ripple in front of the altar. Although Lei Ling'er was a lightning avatar, she was still pushed back.
At that moment, a dragon's roar rang out. Long Chen, clad in golden armor and his blood surging to the sky, finally seized an opening after being drawn by Lei Ling'er, summoning the Golden Dragon Battle Body.
"Boom!"
Long Chen stepped on the void, and with a loud explosion, the void collapsed extensively. He shot forward like a meteor, slashing down with his blade, heading straight for the final altar.
Even though some Chu family experts self-destructed and space collapsed, Long Chen's strike ignored the laws of space, pressing down with fury and severing the heavens and earth.
The spatial collapse caused by those powerful warriors' self-destruction could not affect Long Chen's strike; this strike was the essence of the blade technique Luo Zichuan had taught Long Chen.
Just as Long Chen was about to strike the altar with his blade, the void suddenly twisted, and a pill furnace appeared out of thin air. With a loud explosion, Long Chen's black blade shattered instantly.
At the same time, Long Chen spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and was sent flying. He felt as if his body was about to explode. The divine power atop the pill furnace was simply terrifying.
On the alchemy furnace, endless divine patterns flowed. Long Chen felt a sense of familiarity when he saw the patterns on the furnace.
"Night Furnace!"
Long Chen exclaimed, instantly thinking of the divine artifact from Dan Valley on the Tianwu Continent. Although its design was different,But those runes were similar, and their auras were very similar.
"Whoosh."
The alchemy furnace slowly swirled, divine light blossomed, and a figure gradually appeared atop it. It was a gaunt old man, like a dried corpse crawling out of a coffin. Golden light shone in his eyes as he coldly stared at Long Chen
"I didn't expect you to recognize the origin of this pill furnace."
His voice was dry and chilling. Luo Changwu and Luo Changwen's faces changed drastically upon seeing the alchemy furnace:
"Not good, that's a royal artifact."
