"What?"
Outside the sky curtain, countless powerful figures were shocked. At the moment Long Chen was forced back, the Evil Moon Dragonbone in his hand shot out, transforming into a streak of black light that slashed at Huo Qianwu's neck.
This move caught everyone off guard. Huo Qianwu's reaction speed was already astonishing, and Long Chen's move was even more bizarre.
It should be noted that at that time, Long Chen's Dragon Bone Evil Moon was still being shaken away by the Thousand Phoenix Feather Garment, and Long Chen was sent flying by the blood arrow. Long Chen's change of move almost overturned martial arts knowledge; no one could figure out how he swung that blade.
Most importantly, the moment Huo Qianwu spat out the blood arrow, the torrent formed by the power of destiny was enough to destroy any attack, yet the Dragonbone Evil Moon could go against the current—this was truly bizarre.
"Pfft!"
Amidst countless shocked gazes, the Dragon Bone Evil Moon slashed across Huo Qianwu's neck, blood splattering instantly. Long Chen retreated, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He thought it was all over, but that smile had barely appeared before it froze on Long Chen's face.
The Dragonbone Evil Moon slashed through Huo Qianwu's neck but failed to sever it, only slicing a wound about an inch deep. Beneath Huo Qianwu's skin, countless fine threads appeared.
These things, like lotus root threads, contained endless power of destiny. The usually invincible Dragon Bone Evil Moon still couldn't completely cut through these fine threads. Long Chen could hardly believe his eyes.
Although he knew that a Destiny-Mandate powerhouse must be extremely terrifying, he never expected it to be this terrifying. Even with the sharpness of the Dragonbone Evil Moon, he couldn't cut through her physical body.
"What is that... The
powerful outsiders were also stunned. They saw the fine threads on Huo Qianwu's neck. Although they didn't know the origin of the Dragonbone Evil Moon, being able to withstand the Flame Dragon Bone Whip unharmed meant it must be of that caliber.
Such a powerful weapon, hitting vital points, yet still unable to seriously injure Huo Qianwu. This kind of battle was beyond their comprehension; even after countless years of life, they had never seen such a scene.
"That must be the Thread of Destiny, the unique protection of the Child of Destiny. The Child of Destiny is the favorite of the Heavenly Dao. Unless it's the Heavenly Dao, no one can kill them." A Heavenly Saint expert sighed.
"In fact, that is the Mandate Treasure Robe. Legend has it that after every Child of Destiny is born, Heaven drapes them with an invisible battle garment to prevent their premature death." A powerful figure added.
"Then the Child of Destiny will never be killed, right?" Someone exclaimed.
Someone shook their head and said, "That's not quite right. Legend has it that the Destiny Treasure Garment can protect the Child of Destiny from the Three Calamities and Six Calamities. No one can clearly explain what exactly these three disasters and six calamities are."
But most people believe that after three death crises and six cultivation bottlenecks, after enduring three disasters and six hardships, the Destiny Treasure Armor's Mandate will disappear.
So, no one knows how many times Huo Qianwu's Destiny Treasure Cloth has been used. If it's the last time..."
"Shut your mouths. Miss Qianwu's Destiny Treasure Cloth has never been used. If it weren't for today, we wouldn't have known it existed." Just then, Jiang Yizhou's rebuke came from afar.
The speaker was also a Heavenly Saint powerhouse, and the head of a sect. Being scolded like this, his face immediately showed anger.
But since the opponent was from the Fire God Temple, he didn't dare lose his temper and could only endure it. After all, he wasn't Xing Wujiang, so he wouldn't dare confront him head-on.
"The Child of Destiny is not immortal, and in this world, there is no true immortality.
If their strength far surpasses theirs, they can still be easily killed, but killing them would only bring immense karma.
For those of the same rank, since their strengths are similar, they cannot suppress each other with absolute power. At this point, the Destiny Treasure Cloth becomes their protective talisman.
However, this talisman could protect her at most three times. If Long Chen could cover her neck and slash her two more times, her talisman would disappear. "Just as the room fell into dead silence, a voice rang out.
"City Lord!"
someone exclaimed. The speaker was none other than Xing Wujiang. He didn't tolerate the Fire God Hall; he could say whatever he wanted.
Most importantly, he was extremely excited at this moment. He never expected that Long Chen had no weaknesses in strength, intelligence, or experience—he was almost an all-rounder.
Seeing this, Xing Wujiang no longer worried about Long Chen, because he could see that Long Chen's strength was not much inferior to Huo Qianwu's. Most importantly, Huo Qianwu's temperament and experience were far inferior to Long Chen's, and just in this regard, Long Chen could remain undefeated.
The Deputy Hall Master of the Fire God Hall sneered, "You're so old, yet you still speak so childishly. When experts compete, every tiny bit can determine victory or death."
Qian Wu was protected by the Destiny Treasure Armor, which could protect her three times, while Long Chen only needed one mistake to die and his Dao would be lost. "
Clearly, Xing Wujiang's words were meant for the Fire God Hall. If the Deputy Hall Master didn't fight back soon, it would weaken morale.
Xing Wujiang said calmly, "Although Huo Qianwu is strong, unfortunately, she is still a flower raised in a greenhouse. Even after careful cultivation, her experience is still lacking."
But I, this little brother, am different. He is a true powerhouse who fought his way out of the sea of corpses. Maybe he doesn't have as many treasures as Huo Qianwu does, but his experience and wisdom are enough to make up for all his shortcomings. "
The Deputy Hall Master of the Fire God Hall snorted coldly: "Is that so?" Then let's wait and see! Let me see how long Long Chen's blood can burn for long. "
The Deputy Hall Master of the Fire God Hall also had a sharp gaze. Although he was shocked by Long Chen's dragon blood power, he also knew Long Chen's weakness. Long Chen had burned his essence blood to gain such terrifying combat power. Once too much essence blood was depleted, his strength would also weaken.
Most importantly, this state couldn't last long. He firmly believed that as long as Huo Qianwu could push through, Long Chen would ultimately be the one to perish.
"Boom!"
At that moment, the Dragon Bone Evil Moon returned to Long Chen's hand. Long Chen raised his blade and slashed. With a single strike, blood energy filled the air, aiming straight for Huo Qianwu's face.
"Buzz"
Huo Qianwu was slashed in the throat by Long Chen's blade. Although she wasn't seriously injured, she was terrified and lost her mind. Shocked and furious, she swung the Flame Dragon Bone Whip in her hand, forming a bone whip shield in front of her.
Seeing this, both the Vice Hall Master and Xing Wujiang smiled. He smiled because he knew that as long as Huo Qianwu wasn't in a hurry to win and didn't reveal too many weaknesses, holding off Long Chen would make victory easy. Huo Qianwu taking a defensive stance was the best choice.
Seeing Huo Qianwu take a defensive stance, Xing Wujiang knew she was afraid. Her sharpness had faded, and in this state, it was difficult for her to pose a threat to Long Chen, allowing Long Chen to attack without restraint.
Although Xing Wujiang didn't know Long Chen well, he understood Long Chen's personality. Fighting him would only be offense against offense, using hard to break toughness. If his momentum weakened, he would be finished.
"Whoosh"
Just then, as the Dragon Bone Evil Moon was about to strike the Flame Dragon Bone Whip, Long Chen's long blade suddenly twisted strangely, causing Long Chen to flash behind Huo Qianwu and slash down.
Huo Qianwu was shocked. She hadn't expected Long Chen's powerful move to be a feint, so she quickly turned to blockAnd this move blocked the air.
"Huff, huff, huff..."
Long Chen struck repeatedly, and Huo Qianwu kept changing moves to block. Suddenly, the Vice Hall Master of the Fire God Hall outside the sky changed expression. He suddenly pointed his finger, striking the barrier, which bore a hole the size of a fist.
"Qianwu, this is a combo. Attack quickly and interrupt him."
The Deputy Hall Master of the Fire God Hall roared, finally realizing things were going wrong.
"Too late, Kaitian—Seven Forms in One."
Long Chen roared in anger, unleashing six consecutive slashes. Blade shadows crisscrossed the world. When Long Chen raised his blade again, the six previously slashed blade shadows merged into one, merging into one, and with a single strike, he fiercely slashed at the panicked Huo Qianwu.
