That young man spat at Long Chen, startling quite a few people.

It had to be known that Long Chen was one of the world’s most ruthless people. From the Eastern Wasteland to the Central Plains, those heavenly geniuses that had become enemies with him had all died.

Although this man was at the Life Star realm and was also a powerful Empyrean, it seemed that someone on his level wasn’t qualified to be arrogant in front of Long Chen.

“What an idiot. After advancing to Life Star, he actually thinks he’s too big to be killed. He wants to insult Long Chen to raise his own prestige while there are Netherpassage experts around.” An old man shook his head.

“Last time, rivers of blood flowed through the Eastern Xuan City. No one was able to stop Long Chen from leaving. Does he really think such a person would allow such humiliation?” A Life Star expert sighed. He was already over a hundred years old and had no hope of further advancements. He would not be the main character of this era. However, being witnesses to this era, these people had personally seen Long Chen’s rise and seen him create miracle after miracle.

Long Chen suddenly vanished from his original location. Space shook and he reappeared in front of the young man. He was like a phantom, coming and going without any warning. Although the man had been prepared, he had not expected Long Chen to be so quick. He reached out to unsheathe his sword.

At the next moment, Long Chen’s hand grabbed the sword hilt, while his other hand slapped this young man’s face.

Blood flew out of his mouth, and his teeth became free, flying through the air.

As for his sword, it had come out of its sheath and was now pressed against his forehead.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded. Even the Netherpassage experts were stunned. Long Chen’s speed was inconceivable. He was so fast that they couldn’t even react.

The Netherpassage experts exchanged a glance, acknowledging how serious this situation was now. Long Chen was actually able to move while completely disregarding their life and death domains.

It had to be known that Long Chen was only at the peak of Soul Transformation. For him to be able to ignore their domains was against all common sense.

“Do I know you?” asked Long Chen, still pressing the sword at the young man’s forehead.

“No… no!”

The man was now terrified, unable to speak properly. He only had one life, and now it was in Long Chen’s hands.

“To express your disdain toward me, you came here, showing off your bravery? I actually look down on and hate people like you the most.”

Long Chen pressed forward with the sword. That person’s body shook once before he fell from the sky, his Yuan Spirit dead.

In front of Long Chen, this confident Life Star Empyrean didn’t even have the slightest ability to resist. His corpse landed on the ground, causing a burst of dust to fly into the air. Everyone’s hearts shook.

They looked at the gloomy Long Chen whose killing intent was steadily rising. Their hair stood on end.

Long Chen put away the sword. Although it was just a quasi divine item, it was still quite valuable.

Without even glancing at the Netherpassage experts, he began walking out of the city.

It was the same road, the same man walking alone. His enemies had grown even stronger, but his indomitable air was the same.

There were over ten Netherpassage experts present. They exchanged a glance, their meaning to wait until Long Chen was out of the city to attack.

If they fought within the city, they might not care about others, but they still had to worry about the Huayun Sect. The Huayun Sect might interfere under the excuse of stopping the disturbance in the city.

Long Chen walked away slowly. Under the gaze of countless experts, he walked out of the city with over ten Netherpassage experts following him.

“Attack!”

Once he was out of the city, one of the Netherpassage experts finally gave the order. Life and death energy erupted, and a sword slashed toward Long Chen.

He used his sharpest attack right from the start, clearly no longer viewing Long Chen as a Soul Transformation disciple, but a true threat.

“The battlefield hasn’t changed at all. Good, I’ll add some color this time. I think the blood of Netherpassage experts should be good.”

Long Chen’s gaze was icy-cold, and he was filled with fury. Since they had to force him until he had no other option, they couldn’t blame him for being vicious.

Long Chen’s divine ring burst into existence behind him. He activated the Five Star Battle Armor, and white scales also appeared all over his body.

However, when those scales appeared, Long Chen’s skin split open, and his blood poured out.

“As expected, this is too much. My current physical body is still unable to summon the complete Azure Dragon Battle Armor. However, this state should be enough.”

Long Chen glanced at the bloody scales on his body for an instant before slashing his saber at the attacking Netherpassage experts.

BOOM!

Black and white light intertwined, devouring the sky. That berserk energy caused the world to shake.

“What?!”

All the experts watching let out startled cries. They saw a Netherpassage expert actually be sent flying. He wasn’t able to receive even a single blow.

“How is that possible?!”

“Just what kind of power is that?!”

“Is this some kind of self-destructive secret art? Is he exchanging his life for power?”

Wild speculation erupted. This saber slash had surpassed the limits of their imagination. Just how was it possible for a Soul Transformation disciple to ignore two major realms and force back a Netherpassage expert?

The other Netherpassage experts attacked as well after they recovered from their shock. Rumbling rang out as Long Chen’s saber danced.

“Scram!”

Long Chen suddenly let out an angry roar, like thunder shaking the land. A qi wave containing dragon might spread, and those Netherpassage experts tumbled back.

All that remained was Long Chen standing in the sky. Evilmoon’s runes had lit up, and a dragon cry could be heard echoing through the air, resonating with heaven and earth.

“A group of early Netherpassage brats think they can block me?” sneered Long Chen. He pointed Evilmoon toward the sky. “Split the Heavens 7!”

Evilmoon rumbled as a giant saber-image tore through the clouds. The void was torn in two, and then a black river of stars crashed down.

The current Long Chen was finally able to cooperate with Evilmoon’s power. When the two of them worked together, they could unleash the full potential of the seventh form of Split the Heavens.

The Netherpassage experts’ expressions changed. They had never imagined that a Soul Transformation disciple would be capable of unleashing such a terrifying attack.

They actually felt a sensation of death from this attack as they were completely locked down. Trying to run would only send them to their deaths.

BOOM!

Over ten divine items lit up, unleashing their divine power.

The black saber-image collided with the light of those divine items. The world almost crumbled from their power. As a result, a burst of astral winds blew back the Netherpassage experts, and they were wildly coughing up blood.

“What? He actually wasn’t defeated?” Startled cries rang out. They couldn't understand how these Netherpassage experts had been blown back despite joining forces.

Just as they were filled with disbelief, a black saber slashed down mercilessly at one of the ancient race Netherpassage experts. He was blown to bits, his Yuan Spirit annihilated. He vanished from this world.

Long Chen had a pair of lightning wings on his back, but he was covered in blood. His Azure Dragon Battle Armor was incomplete, and ignoring the fact that it limited his power, his body couldn’t even endure it. The backlash just now had heavily injured him.

However, this time, he was smarter. He didn’t try to heal with the primal chaos space while he had the Azure Dragon Battle Armor on. First of all, there would only be a little effect, and he would also waste a huge amount of life energy.

His whole body was wracked with pain, but he still clenched his teeth and pressed on. His lightning wings flapped, and he shot after the fleeing Netherpassage experts.

The next Netherpassage expert hastily raised his weapon upon seeing Long Chen turn to him, and as a result, his weapon was shattered along with his body.

His Yuan Spirit had just come out when one of Long Chen’s lightning wings smashed it, blowing it apart.

Long Chen had killed two Netherpassage experts in a row. However, his killing intent was still soaring, and it was as if he had forgotten his own injuries and pain. He shot after the third Netherpassage expert.

This expert was from the Xuan Beasts. He was a giant, and his movements were not nimble. Hence, he was instantly caught up to, and seeing Long Chen’s saber falling toward him, he roared, his battle-ax lighting up.

BOOM!

Evilmoon created a giant nick in the ax. At this moment, the Netherpassage expert thought that he had escaped a calamity, and he suddenly sent a kick at Long Chen. However, he had just moved when Long Chen’s left hand thrust forward, a lightning spear in his hand.

“Die!”

Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed. That Xuan Beast Netherpassage expert exploded into a rain of blood.
