Facing Tian Xiezi's attack, Long Chen held the Dragonbone Evil Moon horizontally in front of himself, calmly waiting for the strike to strike.
At this moment, endless power surged within Long Chen, coming from 108,000 stars within him. After stepping into the Reincarnation Realm, Long Chen finally understood the meaning of the cycle of life and death.
The previous 108,000 stars were 108,000 individuals, who contributed part of their power to Long Chen.
But once the power of life and death was activated, it was like a long-sealed world bursting with magnificent vitality, all its power channeled to Long Chen.
The power of 108,000 stars erupted simultaneously, and it operated according to some mysterious law. It seemed to be a kind of formation, and the power they were unleashing was beyond Long Chen's calculation.
Seeing Tian Xiezi's violent strike approaching, Long Chen grew even more eager. He longed for a powerful opponent to test just how strong his own strength really was.
"Boom!"
Tian Xiezi's blood-red battle spear smashed into Long Chen's Dragonbone Evil Moon, its divine light dazzling, engulfing the heavens. His divine power surged like raging waves across the world, wave after wave.
"Boom boom boom... Mountains
and rivers shattered, the sky and earth collapsed, as if the apocalypse had arrived. Only the area around the Spring of Life and Death was protected by a strange law, unaffected, while the surrounding area had already been wiped clean by Tian Xiezi's strike.
The divine power of destructive will surged back and forth in the air. Meng Qi and the others hid beneath the Life-and-Death Spring, not daring to come out, only watching through the spring water as the void twisted endlessly.
Everyone was terrified. Tian Xiezi was truly terrifying. If he had fought desperately from the start, this strike would have turned everyone present to ashes. This was an unstoppable force.
As the void gradually calmed down and people's sight returned, they saw Long Chen holding the Dragonbone Evil Moon, his black robe fluttering, long hair flying, standing perfectly still, completely motionless.
"Oh my god... He finally ... Surprisingly... Blocked it. A
disciple from the Tianwu Alliance peeked out secretly, and after confirming he hadn't mistaken things, he shouted in surprise.
The others slowly poked their heads out from the Spring of Life and Death, but only their heads were visible, not daring to stick out much, fearing that if something unexpected happened, they wouldn't be able to return in time. The Spring of Life and Death was their protective talisman.
"Hahaha, boss is boss! Tian Xiezi's strike doesn't even have the power to shake him." Guo Ran burst out laughing, arrogant to the extreme, as if he were the one blocking Tian Xiezi.
"This is impossible!"
Tian Xiezi roared, striking with all his might without holding back. This strike was his strongest ultimate move, yet Long Chen caught it so effortlessly, not even a single hair on his hair was harmed. He couldn't believe what was happening before him.
At this moment, Long Chen's divine ring swirled behind him, and within the ring, 108,000 stars flickered, vast as a universe. Tian Xiezi felt as if his strike was rushing into the cosmos, unable to stir up even a single wave.
"There must be something wrong. Why don't you try again?" Long Chen nodded and said.
Tian Xiezi was furious, unleashing a blood-red spear in his hand, divine light blazing, and smashed down with another fierce strike.
"Not good!"
Guo Ran shouted. Tian Xiezi was too fast; this time, he didn't even need to charge up and launched an attack directly. He was so frightened he quickly shrank his head, and the others were startled as well, all retreating into the spring.
"Bang!"
But this time, there was no explosion, but a muffled sound. There was no scene of divine light filling the sky or the earth shattering. After that muffled sound, everything fell silent.
Guo Ran and the others were stunned. What's going on? After that peerless strike just now, are they really out of strength? But it didn't quite look like it. They were clearly very curious, yet didn't dare to show their heads rashly.
Tian Xiezi's eyes were filled with shock, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably.
"This time nothing went wrong. I finally know how to use the power of reincarnation to neutralize the opponent's attacks." A smile appeared on Long Chen's face.
For the first strike, he circulated his power of life and death to block it, only to find that part of the force was blocked, causing spatial destruction, while part of it was absorbed by the 108,000 stars under his power of reincarnation.
For the second strike, Long Chen deliberately stopped taking it head-on and instead used his power of life and death to weaken the opponent's strength. As a result, the entire strike was neutralized, and he himself suffered no damage at all.
This made Long Chen feel the power of reincarnation. The third and fourth steps were both within the Tongming Realm, but the difference between them was like night and day.
Originally, Long Chen possessed 108,000 stars, thinking he could crush his peers at the Fate Star Realm. After all, others only had one star space, but he had 108,000.
Even if others' star spaces are vast, no matter how vast theirs are, Long Chen is ten thousand times larger than the others.
However, when it came to the power of the stars, Long Chen didn't seem to have much advantage. Yet today, after mastering the power of reincarnation, he was moved to tears. It turned out that the advantage of the 108,000 stars was finally revealed at this moment.
Tian Xiezi's full-force strike was absorbed by his 108,000 stars, leaving him no qualification to harm him. This was the gap—he could finally hold his head high for once.
"Get ready, now it's my turn."
Suddenly, Long Chen's sword-like brows shot up, and the 108,000 stars within the phenomenon behind him suddenly lit up, unleashing a tremendous power rising from the Evil Moon of the Dragon Bone.
"Bang!"
Tian Xiezi was flung away by the power above the Dragon Bone Evil Moon. Tian Xiezi was shocked. Long Chen couldn't move his body or raise his arms, and with just a single shock, he had knocked him away.
You have to know, at this moment, his power was still suppressing Long Chen, not relaxing at all, yet he was easily repelled.
"Let me try chopping it once."
"Buzz!" Long Chen's
Dragonbone Evil Moon slashed down with a single strike, without any flashy movements or spell casting—just an ordinary strike.
But as this blade was struck, heaven and earth fell silent, all sounds vanished, and only the Dragonbone Evil Moon slowly descended. This strike seemed to sever the restraints of time and space. Speed and time meant nothing to it. This strike reached the heavens and earth, with no escape, so it could only resist with all its might.
Tian Xiezi also saw the terror of this strike. Long Chen was using absolute strength to force him to block it head-on. Tian Xiezi roared, blood-red runes burning all over his body once again. Now he had no choice but to fight desperately, gripping the bone spear with all his might.
"Boom!"
The Dragon Bone Evil Moon slashed down, seemingly slow but actually fast, without stirring up any wind. But when it touched Tian Xiezi's bone spear, the power attached to the Dragon Bone Evil Moon erupted instantly.
A tremendous burst of power erupted, and the divine artifact bone spear in Tian Xiezi's hand shattered in an instant. Endless rune fragments flew about, and the runes emitted a piercing howl.
It turned out the bone spear had imprisoned countless vengeful souls. As a result, the spear shattered, and the endless vengeful spirits broke free from the rune's restraints, letting out piercing screams.
Originally, once released, they should have been grateful to Long Chen, but having been controlled for too long, they had long lost their true nature and charged at Long Chen like a vengeful ghost demanding life.
"Roar!"
A furious roar rang out as the Thunder Dragon appeared, devouring the vengeful souls in one gulp. The world instantly fell silent, revealing the figure of Tian Xiezi.
Tian Xiezi's arms vanished, and his whole body looked like porcelain struck hard, cracked all over. Long Chen's strike nearly pulverized him.
Tian Xiezi was shocked. Long Chen had just advanced to the fourth step of the Tongming Realm, yet he had already mastered the power of reincarnation. He had burned the divine power possessed by the Divine Son, yet was utterly powerless.
"Buzz!"
Long Chen slashed down with another strike, giving Tian Xiezi no chance to catch his breath. The strike wasn't strong, but it was as swift as a dot.
"Evil King Shield" Tian
Xiezi spread his hands wide, pushing open a blood-red shield. However, Long Chen shattered the shield with a single strike. In front of Long Chen's gathering power of 108,000 stars, even divine power could not withstand it.
"Pfft!"
Although the strike didn't land on Tian Xiezi, the immense force still shattered his physical body.
Tian Xiezi's body shattered, blood mist spreading everywhere, and a transparent figure appeared—it was his primordial spirit.
"Long Chen, just you wait." Tian Xiezi lost his physical body in agony and could no longer fight. He unlocked the seals with both hands, and a divine mark appeared on his brow. His body gradually faded into the world.
"You're overthinking it. If it weren't for killing you, why would I risk breaking through? The Blazing Prison. Long
Chen sneered and shouted, not needing to form seals at all. Suddenly, chains of flame hung down from the world, and a massive fire prison bound the world within ten thousand miles.
With the appearance of the fire prison, the power of heaven and earth was cut off, and the entire world inside the fire prison was sealed off. Tian Xiezi's previously dim figure had gradually returned to his original form.
"Boom boom... Tian
Xiezi opened his large hand, runes in his hand transforming into a bone spear, wildly attacking the prison. The prison was trapped in heaven and earth, and no matter how he tried, he could not break through.
"I won't make the same mistake twice. When the Hexagonal Sea Serpent clan escaped, it was like mending the pen after the sheep were lost—it's not too late."
This Fire Prison is one of my strongest moves right now. Originally, I planned to fight you to the bitter end with my brothers, and then use this move to trap you.
I didn't expect you to cooperate so much—you couldn't even see through my thunder clone. If you had seen through my clone, you'd have at least a fifty percent chance of using divine power to tear through the prison and escape.
But now, your body has shattered, your divine power exhausted, and you have no chance to escape. Long Chen chuckled.
Huo Ling'er was Long Chen's last resort and the ultimate move to trap Tian Xiezi, because Long Chen knew Tian Xiezi definitely had many life-saving tricks. It was easy to defeat him, but much harder to kill him.
"Long Chen, you underestimate me too much. You'll never know that as the son of the Evil God, he would never be killed by someone as powerful as you."
Tian Xiezi's face twisted with rage. Suddenly, blood-red lines appeared in his palm as he recited scriptures. The blood patterns spread rapidly, quickly covering his entire body.
Long Chen was startled, forming hand seals and rapidly closing the fire prison, ignoring that Huo Ling'er's power hadn't reached its peak yet—he wanted to close the net early.
"Too late,"
Tian Xiezi sneered. Suddenly, his entire body wrapped in blood-red patterns, he crashed straight into the fire prison. When he hit the fire prison, it seemed as if his body melted in an instant, passing right through it.
"Long Chen, you have drained all my offerings. Just wait, I, Tian Xiezi, swear I will take revenge." Tian Xiezi passed through the fire prison and looked at Long Chen, his eyes filled with hatred and venom.
"Pfft."
But just as he finished his harsh words, a transparent dagger pierced through his back, emerging from his chest and piercing through his body. The blood-red patterns on his body rapidly dimmed.
