"Rumble rumble...
At that moment, heaven and earth collapsed, myriad paths collapsed. The long staff carried endless black energy, the Minghong Blade carried twinkling stars. Both roared in unison, their divine weapons, carrying all their power, simultaneously striking fiercely toward each other.
Neither held back at all. This was not only a clash of power, but also a clash of wills. At this moment, neither could hesitate or fear, or else their minds would reveal flaws. Under the other's powerful mental assault, their will would collapse instantly, leading to defeat and death.
One was a supreme prodigy of the demon race, the other a peerless powerhouse of the human race. Both possessed invincible willpower, but only one could survive this strike.
At that moment, time seemed to slow down. The people inside Shengtian City gritted their teeth, clenched their fists, and watched as the two figures in the void slowly approached. This strike was not only a life-and-death battle between Long Chen and Moluo Tianye, but also a critical moment for the survival of the human race. For a moment, everyone's hearts leapt into their throats.
"Boom!"
The Minghong Blade, carrying the will to open the heavens, slashed fiercely at Moluo Tianye's long staff, and the power of both men surged forth.
The moment the two divine weapons touched, a ball of light lit up. At first, it was only the size of a fist, but suddenly burst forth and swallowed heaven and earth in an instant, like a sun/sun swelling and sweeping across all worlds.
Suddenly, heaven and earth fell silent, lost all sound, and time seemed to stop abruptly. People briefly fell into a state of emptiness, followed by violent tremors, heaven and earth upside down, and endless rain of light poured down.
The light rain was chaotic, flowing chaotically through the void, as if the world was tumbling and all paths were overturning.
"Puff puff puff... Shengtian
City roared and exploded as the grand array was activated to its limit, shattering continuously while the city began to crack. Fortunately, Guo Ran had previously ordered the formation to be fully activated, with over a thousand barriers to prevent it from being completely destroyed in an instant.
"Not good, the dragon vein has been destroyed by the shockwave." Suddenly, someone shouted in terror.
The defense of the grand formation is built on the dragon vein; if the dragon vein is shattered, the formation will soon lose its protective power.
"Defense ships, assemble and activate defenses to protect all civilians." Guo Ran made a decisive decision at the critical moment.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, with a loud explosion, Shengtian City, without the dragon vein's blessing, shattered with a thunderous crash. Fortunately, at the very moment it shattered, the warship's protective divine light activated, protecting the city's residents at the critical moment.
The fierce winds howled through the world, and the dazzling divine light slowly faded. When people's vision returned, they could hardly recognize this world.
Looking out, the world was already desolate. At the center of the battlefield, a spatial rift stretching tens of thousands of miles appeared. The rift remained unmoving, neither devouring nor spitting out. It was as if the world had been cut open with a wound, and even the laws of the Heavenly Dao could not heal it.
"Don't stop the protective formation."
Some runes on some warships began to fluctuate, and Guo Ran suddenly shouted sternly, "Keep activating the protective formation! Otherwise, the lingering will of slaughter in the world will wipe out more than half of the city's inhabitants in an instant." Guo
Ran's words sent a chill through countless people's hearts, especially some who thought the battle was over and wanted to conserve energy by withdrawing the fully activated protective formation. Guo Ran's words scared them so much that they didn't dare move at all.
Everyone activated the observation array, and soon they found a figure beneath that spatial rift.
"It's Boss Long Chen! We've won, we've won, we've won!"
When they saw the figure dressed in black, holding a long blade, people were overjoyed and wept, but Long Chen did not disappoint them.
"I've always said, among peers, the boss is always invincible." Guo Ran said proudly.
In fact, Guo Ran had just been frightened. That Mo Luo Tianye was too strong; that Supreme Bone was simply a heaven-defying existence. For the first time in his life, he worried that Long Chen might lose to an opponent of the same rank.
However, Long Chen did not disappoint anyone. The people of the Moluo Star Domain frantically called out Long Chen's name, their gratitude reaching a level beyond words.
Life is precious, but most people do not understand its value. Only when facing death do they realize how wonderful it is to be alive.
At the same time, they understood how brave and admirable the warriors who dared to fight such cruel demons with their lives and blood at such a time truly were.
At this moment, Long Chen's clothes were torn and covered in blood. The blood dripped slowly along the Minghong Blade, but his figure remained as upright as ancient pines and cypresses, unshakable as mountains and seas.
However, Long Chen was also in a very sorry state. The thunder and fire wings behind him had vanished, and Lei Ling'er and Huo Ling'er had fallen into a deep sleep. This strike had exhausted all their strength.
Previously, Long Chen hadn't used the power of either of them before, just to prepare for this strike. Everything happened just as he expected.
The more abundant the purple energy, the more star power it could summon, the greater the power he could control, and the more terrifying the backlash force.
So, to be safe, Long Chen had Huo Ling'er and Lei Ling'er join him in sharing the backlash force. Fortunately, he did it right; otherwise, the enormous backlash would have left him seriously injured even if he didn't die.
"Crack...
Suddenly, the ground trembled, and a patch of ground bulged. The people who had been cheering suddenly fell silent, staring in terror at the ground in front of Long Chen.
"Moluo Tianye isn't dead yet?"
Long Chen, however, remained calm. He took a few steps forward, then suddenly stabbed the Minghong Blade lightly into the ground.
"Whoosh!"
A massive figure was lifted off the ground by Long Chen—it was Moluo Tianye's body.
After being stabbed by Long Chen, his body began to shrink rapidly, eventually shrinking to normal human size.
Moluo Tianye was no longer as arrogant as before; his whole body was a mess of blood, bones shattered, his body like a pile of mush, and his aura was extremely weak.
At this moment, he was already on the brink of death. Long Chen's strike had not only broken his physical body, but also shattered his soul and will. At this point, even if Long Chen let him go, he wouldn't survive.
This is a battle between the strong—leaving themselves no way out. They can accept death, but cannot accept defeat.
"Humble ... human ... Just you wait... We ... The Moro Clan ... I'm not the only one supreme... You quietly ... ... waiting for death Come on... Moluo Tianye's gaze was already unfocused, but he still glared fiercely at Long Chen, a sinister smile still playing at the corner of his mouth.
His words were like a demon's curse, sending chills down one's spine, but Long Chen calmly said,
"No matter how many supreme-level geniuses your Moluo clan has, I'll kill as many as there are. Unfortunately, you won't live to see that day."
Sorry, you're about to die. I'm about to act. I, Long Chen, have to keep my word. I want to use your head to mourn the fallen heroes. They're watching me, and I don't want them to wait too long. "
Pfft"
As Long Chen spoke, the Minghong Blade severed Moluo Tianye's neck, and his head slid off instantly.
