Dragon Blooded War God

Crack!

Chen Xu turned and swung his knife, but the moment he raised his arm, Long Chen struck his shoulder with a heavy blow. Long Chen’s Desolate Divine Seal hit his shoulder heavily and rendered half his arm useless!

“My hand! My hand!” Chen Xu cried and yelled, rolling several times on the leaf. The black knife fell out of his hand next to him, almost falling off the leaf. Thankfully, he snapped to his senses and used his feet to stop his knife. He cradled his arm pitifully. After being hit by the Desolate Divine Seal at the base of his arm, a large chunk of flesh had rotted. If he did not nurse it ,he would probably lose the whole arm.

Earth-shattering pain tore through Chen Xu’s nerves. The more pain he felt, the deeper his hatred for Long Chen became. Long Chen had waited a long time to attack him, but the moment he did, he had rendered one of his arms useless. Although Long Chen had less essence, his Big Dipper Step was just too powerful and too fast for his opponent to react.

And this was only because Long Chen did not want to kill Chen Xu. If he did, he would have hit the Desolate Divine Seal on his heart or head, which would kill him in one strike.

“Let’s stop here. You and I have no grudges. You’ve just been used by other people. There’s no need to risk your life fighting me,” said Long Chen solemnly as he stood with folded arms.

“Fuck you! You merely had a slight edge over me because of that strange body combat technique! It was just a moment of carelessness; how dare you hurt me! Prepare to die!” Chen Xu roared!

Chen Xu flicked his foot and kicked the knife up to his left hand. Then he turned into a shadow, and a black ray of sword aura flew at Long Chen beneath the starry sky!

“You’re still not giving up.” Long Chen was speechless. He did not want to cause more problems, which was why he had not killed this brat yet. However, Chen Xu was relentless and Long Chen did not have that much patience.

Long Chen used the Big Dipper Step and appeared to Chen Xu’s left in a flash. The Desolate Divine Seal flew at lightning speed towards Chen Xu’s hand, knocking the black knife out of his hand. The leaf was tough and could pinch the knife in place, as if it was solid ground.

When the Desolate Divine Seal hit Chen Xu’s hand, it turned his whole hand into rotten flesh and revealed white bone. Chen Xu screamed and rolled on the ground, screaming in pain. There was a saying that the ten fingers were connected to the heart[1], so the pain he felt was utterly terrifying.

Long Chen stood before him and glared at him coldly. He asked, “Do you still want to continue? If you don’t leave, I will not be entertaining you.”

Long Chen could not be bothered to waste any more time on him. After today’s interruption, he would not be able to continue cultivating here. Only a small part of the night had passed, so he was prepared to find another place of high altitude to resume. Chen Xu’s attack was merely a small distraction to Long Chen.

Chen Xu’s injury was just a warning from Long Chen. He had not attacked him in a severe manner, so Chen Xu had not sustained permanent injuries. As long as he cleared the deathly Qi, his flesh would regrow after a period of rest.

Long Chen was about to leave when the screaming Chen Xu suddenly roared and leaped up. Both his arms were already injured, but Chen Xu still had a vicious expression. His eyes were covered in blood vessels, and a sky-high killing intent radiated from him.

“Long Chen! Don’t leave if you’re a man!”

Long Chen stopped and turned around. “Do you really think I wouldn’t dare kill you?”

Chen Xu did not answer, and his features were contorted into a sneer. There was some madness mixed with the fury in his eyes, and to him, the fact that Long Chen had shown mercy was a humiliation.

“You … You really think I can’t kill you?” Chen Xu roared with madness and, bearing the agony in his arms, picked up his black knife. He pointed it at Long Chen and roared, “Do you know what knife this is? I’ll tell you! This is the knife that will take your life!”

It was clear that this bastard wanted to fight Long Chen till the end.

Long Chen put up his guard and suddenly felt a hint of anxiety. Then Chen Xu roared and threw his knife at Long Chen!

Whoosh!

There was a loud bang. The two were only thirty meters apart. The black knife covered fifteen meters in an instant, and at this point, Long Chen saw it explode and sensed a destructive force brewing within. Long Chen had already sensed danger before that, so he abandoned all feelings of mercy. His gaze darkened, and at the last second, he used the Dragon Soul Transformation!

Blood-red scales instantly covered his whole body, and not only did it raise his essence to Chen Xu’s level, it also increased the toughness of his body!

“Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal!” Long Chen used the seal without hesitation, as he sensed that the destructive force and range of the explosion would be quite large. If he only relied on the Big Dipper Step, he wasn’t guaranteed to dodge it. That was why he chose to use the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal!

The golden seal appeared in his palm and shone brightly. Under his control, a ray of golden light shot out into the dark night sky. Even the people in Heavenly Wood City below could see the shining light!

Then there was a brighter light, which came with a huge explosion. That was caused by the knife. After the knife exploded, the immense force brought with it countless knife shards that shot at Long Chen. If he was hit by them, he would be filled with holes!

The strength of the explosion was close to an Eighth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator’s attack. That was Chen Xu’s last trump card. It was unexpected for him to use his trump card after facing pressure from Long Chen.

This guy has definitely gone mad. Long Chen could already feel the explosive force, and the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal had faced an opposing force in its path forward. An earth-shattering force flew at Long Chen!

This is quite difficult to withstand, but die! Under such immense pressure, Long Chen had no time to think. If he did not destroy the exploding force, he would end up taking damage!

“I refuse to believe that you’ll survive the explosion of my knife, Long Chen. You’re a mere Sixth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator. How could you be a match for me?” Chen Xu laughed when he watched the explosion gradually engulf Long Chen.

But he was stunned a moment later. Within the endless explosive force, he saw a hint of golden light, which immediately expanded. Then it forced the explosive force back, causing both the seal and the explosion’s energy to fly toward Chen Xu instead!

Everything happened so quickly that Chen Xu only had time to see that it was a gigantic seal!

Then his thin body was completely engulfed by the emperor seal. The power of the seal and explosion combined to turn Chen Xu into dust in an instant.

“That’s impossible …” At the last second, Chen Xu was stunned. He could not have imagined this. Long Chen was merely at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage. How could he have such terrifying power?

Under the terrifying explosion, Chen Xu’s bones shattered and the leaf they were on was completely destroyed, leaving Long Chen floating in the air.

The commotion quickly died down and Long Chen furrowed his brows. He knew that the final showdown had caused a huge commotion, and soon, many people would arrive. It was a fact that he had killed Chen Xu. After some thought, he decided not to leave.

Leaving would just show that he was guilty of doing something bad. He had to stand his ground in front of everyone. Chen Xu was the one who had attacked and tried to kill him. Long Chen was merely preserving his own life. Since he was in the right, he would not be afraid of any accusations. If Bai Lan learned of what had happened, he would stand on his side.

After a while, Long Chen sensed people approaching from below. Soon, many Demon and Thunder clansmen were around. When they saw him and confirmed he was not a foreign enemy, they did not attack. However, they looked at him cautiously because it was undeniably suspicious for him to be here late at night.

The strongest person who came was an elder. When Long Chen saved Suyuan, this elder was present. He looked around with furrowed brows. There were clear signs of a fight. He was about to ask Long Chen what had happened when the beautiful Suxue appeared from below.

“What happened?” Suxue was ranked highest here in terms of status and strength. She came up to Long Chen’s side, looking around as she spoke.

Previously, Suxue had not been nice to Long Chen, but ever since he saved her younger sister, her attitude improved greatly. At this moment, she went up to his side before asking him the question in a gentle tone filled with trust.

She was wearing a long, black dress, making her look cold and beautiful beneath the starlight. She was Bai Lan’s daughter after all, so naturally, she was regal.

Long Chen explained in detail, “I came here to cultivate, but then someone with dark skin attacked me. I was unwilling to fight him, but he would not stop bothering me. In the end, he made his knife explode, intending to kill me. I had no choice but to kill him because of that.”
