The man was already too late to summon the phenomenon, not even having a chance to use his spiritual energy. However, he reacted quickly, ignoring Long Chen's fist and kicking straight for Long Chen's thigh wound.
Although Long Chen made the first move, his fists were short and his legs long, and when he kicked, he naturally leaned back. He could strike first after the attack. This man was a battle-hardened warrior, quick and ruthless.
"Pfft"
Unfortunately, before his foot could touch Long Chen, a Thunder Spear appeared on Long Chen's fist, piercing through his skull. His body stiffened, then collapsed to the ground, killed by Long Chen.
Everything happened too fast, too suddenly. Long Chen acted without any warning, and the use of thunder power showed no fluctuation.
You have to understand, whether it's thunder or flame power, neither is Long Chen's own strength. With just a thought, Lei Long knows how to coordinate with him. At such close range, that person was slain in a confused way.
For a moment, everyone present was stunned. Long Chen had actually killed someone, and not just a member of the divine clan—not a relative of the divine clan, but a true member of the divine clan.
"Die!"
Ye Benchang suddenly let out a furious roar. With his long sword in hand, he soared through the air. As the sword slashed down, the phenomenon behind him was stretched open, causing everyone to be shocked. Ye Benchang's blood surged, the phenomenon trembled as if alive—it was a spiritual phenomenon, and he was a Spirit Blood Awakener.
From sword sword drawing, breaking through the phenomenon, to slashing down, Ye Benchang completed it almost instantly. No one present could enter combat mode so quickly.
"Boom!"
Long Chen was prepared. After killing the man, he immediately pushed open his divine ring and battle body, slashing out with the Dragon Bone Evil Moon. As a result, Long Chen's arm shook violently, and with a cracking sound, the section of his arm was blasted away.
Gu Yang, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, and the others standing behind Long Chen hurriedly reached out to catch him, but Long Chen's body felt as heavy as a star. They all spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, flying far away like rolling gourds.
Ye Benchang's power contained terrifying laws. Although Ye Benchang was also a third-step Tongming Realm expert, his death force was unstoppable. With a single strike, the terrifying death force roamed through Long Chen's body.
Meanwhile, Gu Yang and the others, having gone to pick up Long Chen, were also tainted by the terrifying laws of death. Their faces turned ashen, and a mass of black death energy gathered at their foreheads.
"Pfft"
"Ding!"
Just as everyone was shocked by Ye Benchang's strength, a dagger had already slashed open his neck. Ye Benchang reacted too quickly, sending the dagger flying with his sword, and a figure was simultaneously knocked away—it was Dongming Yu.
Dongming Yu was knocked away, but the phenomenon behind her trembled, and the black energy on her brow quickly dissipated.
Dongming Jade is a goddess, possessing divine power. Although very weak, it can erase Ye Benchang's power of death.
"Courting death!"
Ye Benchang's neck was cut open in shock and anger. He had nearly lost his head just now, but Ye Benchang shouted coldly and raised his sword.
"Clang"
But just as he raised his sword, another sword blocked it—Shen Chengfeng made his move.
"Shen Chengfeng, you dare to stop me?" Facing Shen Chengfeng's resistance, Ye Benchang shouted sternly.
"Ye Benchang, your Ye family has gone too far." Anger flashed in Shen Chengfeng's eyes, veins bulging on his forehead—clearly, he had reached the peak of his rage.
"Shen Chengfeng, you're just an outsider dog from the Long family. Do you really have the right to discipline me? Today, I am going to kill these ants who desecrate the divine race. What can you do to me? Ye Benchang sneered.
At this moment, Long Chen had already slowly stood up. Chu Yao and Liu Ruyan were about to pour their life force into Long Chen, but Long Chen waved his hand to refuse.
Previously, while trying to kill a man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan, he was wounded by a fourth-step Tongming Realm expert from the Blood Clan. Although he succeeded in beheading him, he paid a terrible price himself.
As for Ye Benchang, perhaps because he was an awakened Spirit Blood, his death power was exceptionally strong—almost not a kind of power, but a law that had risen.
Such a death force is not something Chu Yao and Liu Ruyan can dispel; unless they can advance to Tongming and awaken spiritual blood.
Fortunately, Long Chen had the Chaos Pearl. The Yin-Yang Immortal Grass he cultivated inside the Chaos Pearl possessed the power of yin and yang and could absorb this law.
Long Chen bore injuries left by a fourth-step Tongming Realm expert, while Ye Benchang's death power was no less than the power left by a fourth-step Tongming Realm expert. According to Long Chen's estimation, for experts at Ye Benchang and Shen Chengfeng's level, their true combat power would definitely not be much weaker than that of an ordinary Tongming Realm fourth-step expert.
"At least I'm here, so you won't be allowed to act recklessly." Shen Chengfeng said coldly.
"Hahaha, stop me?" I'm just afraid you don't have the ability. Ye Benchang sneered.
Shen Chengfeng looked coldly at Ye Benchang and said, "I know your limits very well. If it weren't for the Ye family's connections, do you think you could have taken the position of Seventh Commander of the Tianlong Legion?"
If you're stubborn, I don't mind finding a legitimate reason to get rid of you. If you don't believe me, feel free to try. The
two powerful figures locked eyes, and the dozens of experts Ye Benchang had brought slowly drew their long swords.
"Clang!"
Of the warriors Shen Chengfeng brought, only half were controlling the battlefield; the other half stood behind him, all drawing their long swords. In that instant, a murderous aura filled the air, terrifying the powerful warriors of Tianwu Continent into silence. They had no idea what had happened, or why the divine clans were in conflict with each other.
"Shen Chengfeng, are you relying on having so many people? I don't believe you dare to do that. Ye Benchang sneered.
"You can give it a try. To be honest, I've disliked you for a long time. I advise you not to keep tempting me to kill you." Shen Chengfeng looked at Ye Benchang and said.
Ye Benchang's face darkened. They were few in number, while Shen Chengfeng had many. If a real fight broke out, they would definitely suffer.
However, he never expected that Shen Chengfeng, who usually swallowed his anger, would dare to go against him, causing him to miscalculate and leaving him caught in a dilemma.
"I didn't expect it to be quite lively here. Seventh Commander is quite enthusiastic—are you here to help?"
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, an aged voice rang out, and a gaunt-faced old man stepped forward.
When they saw the elder, Ye Benchang, Shen Chengfeng, and the other Divine Clan experts hurriedly bowed in salute.
"Greetings, Elder Long."
That elder was none other than the Dragon Clan's Tian-generation elder, the one who was discussing cooperation with Long Chen.
"I was worried the Dragonblood Legion wouldn't be reliable, so I came to take a look. I didn't expect to see their defenses collapse, so I quickly stepped in to defend myself."
Unexpectedly, after being insulted and attacked by the Dragonblood Legion's ruthless people, Long Chen became even more reckless, killing his disciple's deputy general and asking Elder Long to uphold justice. Ye Benchang shouted loudly.
"Let you ...," Gu Yang was furious, about to curse, but Long Chen grabbed him. The other party's intentions were already clear—reasoning with them was fundamentalIt makes no sense.
"Oh, is that so?" Long Chen, is that true? Elder Long looked at Long Chen and said.
"Yes,"
Long Chen said calmly, looking at Elder Long calmly, unwilling to say another word.
"Elder Long, as you can see, Long Chen has already admitted to all the facts. I suggest that we arrest Long Chen and take him back for our Ye family to handle. After all, the person he killed was one of our Ye family." Ye Benchang spoke up, actually bringing up the Ye family.
Elder Long didn't look at Ye Benchang, but instead looked at Long Chen: "Why do you want to kill someone?" "
Because he wants to kill my brother." Long Chen said calmly.
"How dare you! Your brother isn't dead, yet you killed my deputy general." Ye Benchang shouted sternly.
"If my brother dies, I won't kill just one person. I'll make sure all of you die with me." Long Chen looked at Ye Benchang and said.
"Hahaha... Such arrogance. Elder Long, you've seen it yourself—he's rebellious and unruly, and doesn't even care about our Divine Clan.
For people like that, do you think opening up the Star Domain Divine Realm to them is no different from raising a bunch of ungrateful wolves? How could the resources of our Star Domain Divine Realm be wasted on such trash? Ye Benchang laughed heartily.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately sensed something was off. It seemed that Ye Benchang was targeting Long Chen for the sake of the Star Domain Divine Realm.
It was said that if Long Chen completed the mission, he could lead everyone to gain the qualification to enter the Star Domain Divine Realm. It had long been known that the Star Domain Divine Realm was a sacred place that Tongming experts longed for and dreamed of.
The Divine Clan actually caused internal conflicts over this matter, clearly showing that the Star Domain and Divine Realm had a significant connection.
"Then according to your suggestion... Elder Long looked at Ye Benchang with a slight smile.
"In my opinion, of course we can't let trash like Long Chen enter the Star Domain Divine Realm. Why should our Divine Clan's resources be given to them for free, and why should we get them to show disrespect to the Divine Clan..." Ye Benchang said.
Before Ye Benchang could finish, Elder Long spoke up: "So you mean that in matters of the Divine Clan, you can make the decisions?" "
"That..."
Ye Benchang was instantly at a loss for words. He was just a lowly elder of the 'Earth' generation, with no qualifications.
Elder Long smiled slightly and said, "Since I can't make the decision, what's the point of saying this?" Go back and find someone who can make decisions to talk.
Moreover, as an elder, I advise you not to be too harsh with words. You must understand, a sharp blade heals quickly, but harsh words hurt a person with hatred. Be careful, disaster comes from the mouth. "
Elder Long, disciple..." Ye Benchang was about to speak when Elder Long waved his hand slightly.
Ye Benchang had no choice but to leave with a gloomy expression. Before leaving, he glanced at Long Chen, his eyes tinged with contempt and mockery.
"I really want to kill him—no, if I don't, I'll leave him half dead." Guo Ran said through gritted teeth.
"It's okay, there will definitely be a chance." Long Chen said calmly. Although Ye Benchang was targeting him so calmly, deep down he was already filled with murderous intent. Play with me, fine, I'll play you to death.
