Chapter 5496 I’ll Be Shameless
BOOM!
Long Chen’s palm met Netherdragon Tianfeng’s fist head-on. The force within Netherdragon Tianfeng’s attack could split the heavens and rend the earth, yet it shattered instantly upon impact.
The blood-colored cross in Long Chen’s hand tore through the void and crushed Netherdragon Tianfeng’s arm and shoulder. One arm of the cross extended further, slicing through Netherdragon Tianfeng’s waist and severing him in two.
Blood rained down, and two halves of Netherdragon Tianfeng’s body fell to the ground, his vitality severed.
In the void where their clash had taken place, a massive, blood-colored cross hung suspended. It radiated boundless dragon might, its aura ancient, sacred, and majestic. A faint dragon cry echoed from the cross, shaking the heavens and subduing the ten thousand Daos.
Despite the ferocity of the cross, the void remained intact. The cross was embedded into the world itself, not fading for a long time.
“So this is his true power...” muttered Mo Yang.
Mo Yang felt a chill run down his spine. Now, he knew how much Long Chen had been holding back against him when he used the Sovereign Blood Seal.
By compressing his dragon blood power with his astral energy, Long Chen had unleashed an attack so devastating it annihilated Netherdragon Tianfeng in one strike.
“You’ve drained your astral energy to compress your dragon blood power. Both are completely spent now. Your thunderforce and flame energy are also depleted. What’s left for you to fight me with? Hahaha!”
Suddenly, the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s laughter rang out, shaking everyone’s heart. Though Netherdragon Tianfeng had fallen, the Silver Hair Void Crusher was pretty much alive.
Around him, there was a milky white flame, which had humanoid runes flowing within. These runes vaguely depicted Lord Brahma’s figure seated in the lotus position.
The Silver Hair Void Crusher was now in his youthful appearance. His white hair was bright silver again, and his body was thrumming with vitality. It was like he had suddenly returned to the springtime of his youth.
Netherdragon Tianfeng’s demise seemed to not bother him at all. To the Silver Hair Void Crusher, the fallen dragon was no more than a sacrificial pawn, one meant to wear Long Chen down.
After using the Sovereign Blood Seal, Long Chen was utterly spent. The once-glorious dragon scales and Starry Sky Battle Robe were gone, leaving him clad in plain black robes, his brilliance dimmed.
“Kill him!’ the patriarch of the evil dragon race roared, charging forward without hesitation.
The other patriarchs couldn’t help but feel a headache; he should at least give them a heads-up. After all, they were facing the Silver Hair Void Crusher, one of the eight great divine commanders. They had to use all their power efficiently if they wanted to stand a chance against him.
However, this hot-blooded fellow charged out while the others weren’t prepared at all. With no other choice, they could only chase after him. Following that, all the Dragon Domain’s experts shot into motion. Countless Ten Thousand Dragon Nests flowed toward the Silver Hair Void Crusher like an unstoppable tide.
“The dragon race is nothing more than a group of ants. You no longer have your radiance. Scram!” the Silver Hair Void Crusher sneered.
As the Silver Hair Void Crusher swung the Divine Commander Blade, a stream of Sword Qi sliced through the air, transforming into a surging qi wave.
All the Dragon Domain’s patriarchs grunted and were blown back, feeling absolutely shocked. The Silver Hair Void Crusher was still in his peak condition.
The surging qi wave blew back the other dragon race experts as well, sending the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests tumbling through the air.
Fortunately, the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s target was Long Chen, so he didn’t waste his energy on attacking the Dragon Domain. Otherwise, who knew how many people would have perished from that attack?
“Call out that white-robed fellow. Today, I’ll properly put him in his place,” the Silver Hair Void Crusher shouted, pointing his sword at Long Chen.
Guo Ran and the others exchanged bewildered glances. They had no idea who the “white-robed fellow” was.
With a smirk hanging on his lips, Long Chen replied, “You truly hid your schemes deeply. You intentionally looked weak to bait Netherdragon Tianfeng into being your guardian. Using the laws of the Netherworld and the power of the Nether Emperor, he exhausted my power. And now that I’m spent, you come out to steal the kill—not bad, truly not bad. Child, you’ve grown up. I’m very happy for you.”
Long Chen didn’t forget to clap after praising the Silver Hair Void Crusher, his tone like that of an elder praising a member of the junior generation. It was comical.
However, at this critical juncture, no one could laugh. Thankfully, Long Chen’s calm appearance made them feel a bit less anxious.
It was like all of this was within Long Chen’s expectations. The patriarchs, who were about to ignite their remaining longevity, also paused for a moment.
The Silver Hair Void Crusher shouted, “Shut your dirty mouth! Who do you think you are to patronize me? Do you think this lord needs to scheme against you, with your insignificant power? I’m simply curious who that fellow in your body is. As for you, you’re just an ant. Although you’re a slightly stronger ant, an ant remains an ant. Call him out. This lord will crush him fully this time.”
The Silver Hair Void Crusher had lost to the white-robed Long Chen back then. It could even be called a miserable defeat, and it had cast a shadow on the Silver Hair Void Crusher. After he healed, whenever he closed his eyes, he saw the white-robed Long Chen’s image in his mind.
The white-robed Long Chen’s icy and arrogant gaze made him seem as if he was the highest god of the world, as if he could look down on all other lifeforms in the world.
The white-robed Long Chen had become his heart-devil, causing his recovery to be much slower than it should have been. After fully recovering, the Silver Hair Void Crusher knew that he had to erase this heart-devil. In other words, he had to kill the white-robed Long Chen.
But first, to kill the white-robed Long Chen, he had to force Long Chen into desperate straits. After layers of schemes and preparations, he had pushed Long Chen to the brink again and was now prepared to fight the white-robed Long Chen.
Unbeknownst to the Silver Hair Void Crusher, the white-robed Long Chen was actually Long Chen’s heart-devil, not a discarnate soul of a peerless expert from the primal chaos era hidden within Long Chen.
In truth, the misconception couldn’t be blamed on the Silver Hair Void Crusher. The white-robed Long Chen was utterly different from the true Long Chen—not just in mannerisms and bearing, but also in bloodline power and spiritual fluctuations.
Despite his countless years of existence, the Silver Hair Void Crusher had never encountered anything like this before. The idea that someone’s heart-devil could surpass their true body in every aspect was beyond his comprehension. His primary objective in this battle might have been the Earth Cauldron, but he also sought to obliterate the white-robed Long Chen.
“You’ve exhausted your core energy as well. I can no longer sense its aura,” Long Chen observed calmly. “In other words, you’re now sustained entirely by faith energy. You’re relying on Brahma power, aren’t you?”
“Correct,” replied the Silver Hair Void Crusher, his tone icy. “As one of the eight divine commanders, I can ignite my soul essence and offer it to my divine throne. Through this process, I summon Brahma power. To trigger it, I must constantly provoke my fear of death through battle. That’s why I let that idiot buy me time. Now, the process is complete. Lord Brahma’s divine power flows through me, and I am at my strongest. Hurry up and summon that other fellow. I will erase my previous disgrace.”
Long Chen simply shook his head. With a hint of disdain, he said, “Since you’re going to be shameless by using external forces against me, a mere Heaven Saint, I suppose I can be a bit shameless too.”
As Long Chen formed hand seals, the void trembled violently. In an instant, a colossal figure materialized, its golden wings stretching wide, radiating an aura of overwhelming devil might.
“That’s...!”
Everyone was stunned to see this giant figure.
