The moment the light curtain tightened, heaven and earth trembled. The violent power was chilling, and the power contained in this strike could destroy heaven and earth.
Guo Ran and the others' hearts clenched instantly; they knew this move was definitely Long Aotian's ultimate technique.
But what they didn't expect was that at the very moment the light screen tightened, Long Chen pointed a finger at the Vermilion Bird totem.
Endless flames erupted within the Vermilion Bird Totem. Originally, the five powers within the light screen were balanced, but when Long Chen's power was injected, the screen instantly lost balance.
With a loud explosion, endless runes danced, and the terrifying light screen was actually shattered by Long Chen with a single finger.
The experts present were shocked. Such a terrifying move, and Long Chen actually broke it with a wave of his hand?
"The power of the Five Elements generates and counters each other. Long Aotian can control the power of the Five Elements simultaneously because he uses the way of mutual generation among the Five Elements.
Long Chen himself possessed the power of flame. His power was infused into the Vermilion Bird Totem, drawing it to attack the Azure Dragon Totem. The Azure Dragon belongs to Wood and is overcome by fire, so it immediately defends itself. In this way, the power of the Five Elements' generation is severed, instantly losing balance and naturally breaking the killing move. Seeing Mo Nian and the others looking puzzled, Yue Xiaoqian explained.
Only then did Mo Nian and the others realize that Long Chen had taken a shortcut. Without Yue Xiaoqian's explanation, they could never have imagined how Long Chen could have broken Long Aotian's killing move with a single finger.
Long Aotian's killing move was broken, yet he showed no surprise, as if everything had been expected. With a wave of his hand, Long Aotian waved his hand.
The runes in the sky converged into five totems, each flying toward Long Aotian, each imprinted on his forehead, hands, and feet.
Long Aotian had a qilin atop his head, a Vermilion Bird in his left, a White Tiger in his right, a Azure Dragon on his left, and a Black Tortoise on his right—he had directly imprinted the Five Elements Totem on his body.
"Rumble rumble... When
the Five Elements Totem merged into his body, heaven and earth trembled, myriad paths resounded. At that moment, he seemed to be the master of this world, controlling all laws and invincibility.
Long Aotian merged the Five Spirit Rune into his body, and his aura completely changed, becoming more domineering and fierce.
"Long Chen, you possess the power of flames—how could I not know? Do you think breaking free from my Five Spirit Bundle makes you proud? You're too childish.
Long Chen, I won't let you die so easily. I'll show you just how terrifying your Seven-Colored Supreme Blood really is. I want you to die with endless resentment and helplessness.
Only then will all the pain I endured not be in vain. I will repay you the pain you gave me a thousand times over. Long Aotian stood in midair, his long hair flying, his gaze sharp, and a sinister smile at the corner of his mouth.
"On the Tianwu Continent, you claim to be the strongest in physical strength and invincible strength. Today, I will defeat you at your strongest place.
I will let you die under my own talent. Everything I have now is yours, but you can only watch helplessly as everything is taken away, powerless to struggle, dying in pain. "
Buzz"
Long Aotian suddenly threw a punch, a golden fist shadow blotting out the sky and sun, like a mountain crashing down.
Long Aotian's punch required no charging or hand seals; he controlled the golden power of heaven and earth at will, and this strike showed no warning beforehand.
A golden fist, like a towering mountain, roared toward him. Long Chen's heart tightened; the force of that punch was so overwhelming he could barely breathe.
However, this punch did not hit Long Chen; instead, it flew past him and slammed hard into the ground.
With a thunderous explosion, Long Aotian's punch struck the thirty-six coffins. The terrifying force shattered the earth and turned the soil into nothingness.
Yet such a terrifying punch failed to shatter the coffins. Without the support of the earth, the thirty-six coffins floated in the void.
Long Aotian's punch was earth-shattering and unstoppable, yet it could not destroy the coffins. People were both shocked by the power of his punch and shocked by the sturdiness of the coffins.
Those coffins floated in the void, faintly visible transparent chains connecting the ancient cauldron in the skyline.
"Long Chen, you know I deliberately missed this punch, because I was afraid that one careless move would kill you, and that would be too boring."
Long Aotian completely ignored the coffins and didn't even look at the bronze ancient cauldron. In his eyes, there was only Long Chen, only this mortal enemy he hated to the core.
"Go ahead and go all out. I also want to see how strong my own Seven-Colored Supreme Blood really is. Since I'm about to take it back anyway, I should be mentally prepared." Long Chen said coldly.
In Long Chen's eyes, battle intent surged. Long Aotian's strength was beyond imagination, but the stronger Long Aotian became, the stronger the fighting spirit deep within his soul became.
"Long Chen, don't waste too much power on him. Your target is that bronze ancient cauldron.
Let me tell you, that ancient bronze cauldron is a priceless treasure. You must save your strength to awaken it, and don't lose the bigger for the sake of small things. At this moment, the voice of a dragon clan expert echoed in Long Chen's mind.
Clearly, the bronze ancient cauldron had a very high origin, and it was eager for Long Chen to obtain it.
"This man is my mortal enemy and knows my father's whereabouts even more. Today, I must defeat him and force him to find out my father's whereabouts. As for anything else, I can't care about anything else." Long Chen shook his head.
Normally, Long Chen would definitely have chosen to get the ancient cauldron first before fighting anyone.
But Long Aotian was different. The two were destined mortal enemies, and once they met, it turned into a fight to the death.
"Hahaha, this arrogant atmosphere is just as it was back then. Unfortunately, I, Long Aotian, will never be the same as before. Prepare yourself!"
Long Aotian sneered, suddenly stepping on the void and throwing a punch at Long Chen. This punch locked onto Long Chen with a violent aura, forcing him to fight head-on.
Golden light flashed, runes swirling on Long Aotian's fist, its power even stronger than the previous strike. The howling wind caused the entire Heavenly Burial Land to shake continuously.
"Buzz"—On Long Chen's
fist, seven stars suddenly lit up, their sacred brilliance enveloping the fist. The pattern was clearly a miniature of Long Chen's Seven-Star Battle Body.
This move was something Long Chen had secretly learned from the Nine-Star heir during the Heavenly Tribulation. By striking a specific part of his body, the power of the Seven Stars could be concentrated and unleashed at a single point.
When the Nine Star successor used this move, Long Chen was nearly crayed. It was the first time he had seen such a terrifying move, and this move enlightened him.
Previously, Long Chen's star power flowed throughout his body. Although the circulation of star power provided comprehensive protection and distributed power evenly across his limbs and bones, he could never launch a highly concentrated attack.
But when the seven-star pattern appeared on Long Chen's fist, the star power circulating within him surged into his fist in an instant, like a volcano sealed for billions of years finally finding an outlet and erupting.
"Boom!"
A punch landed on Long Aotian's fist, golden light shattering it instantly. Long Aotian groaned softly, his body trembling and swaying.
"Whoosh"
