Chapter 5845: Divine Seal Flips the Heavens
“This bastard!”
Upon seeing the black spear in the white-haired man’s hands, all the Undying race’s experts were enraged. Their killing intent exploded.
How could they not? That spear was forged from a tree-heart—the very essence of an Undying race expert. To brandish such a weapon before them was not just an insult; it was a blatant provocation against their entire race.
“Long Chen, you know what to do!”
Liu Ruyan rose to her feet, trembling with rage. She barely restrained herself from charging forward to tear that white-haired man apart.
“Leave it to me,” Long Chen replied casually, already rushing forward.
The white-haired man sneered. With a flick of his wrist, the black spear tore through the void. The space before it twisted and collapsed, forming a massive maelstrom that sucked Long Chen toward its deadly core. This was no ordinary attack.
“Die!” shouted the white-haired man.
The spear was crafted from the tree-heart of a late-stage Demon Emperor from the Undying Willow race. Empowered by the white-haired man's Sovereign sprout qi, its runes blazed with destructive might. This single strike carried the weight of a Demon Emperor's wrath.
The Undying race’s experts were shocked and enraged, but they were also worried for Long Chen.The white-haired man had used his trace of Sovereign sprout qi to activate the spear’s Emperor runes. If this attack were to land, Long Chen would probably die. And worse—the compressed space left Long Chen nowhere to run.
“Divine Seal Flips the Heavens!”
Long Chen snorted, and the Heaven Flipping Seal expanded, smashing into the incoming spear.
BOOM!
A deafening explosion split the sky, and the impact shattered the spatial maelstrom, sending shockwaves rippling outward. The Heaven Flipping Seal was blasted aside, but the black spear was also knocked off course.
Shielded by the Demon Moon Cauldron, Long Chen charged forward without hesitation. He extended his hand to unleash a slap.
From the start, he had never intended to engage in a head-on clash. The Heaven Flipping Seal had merely served to disrupt the white-haired man's attack, throwing his spear off balance and creating an opening for Long Chen to charge over.
The white-haired man instinctively leaned back to evade the slap. However, while his face withdrew, his long white hair stayed in place.
Long Chen’s slap had been a feint all along, and his fingers directly grabbed hold of a wisp of his hair. A brutal tearing sound echoed as a chunk of the white-haired man’s scalp was ripped away. Black blood sprayed through the air.
Many spectators winced at the sight, their own scalps tingling in sympathy.
Since the Nine Star Master had altered the cultivation laws, the closer one was to the Human Emperor realm, the more human they became. Even these wooden lifeforms now experienced pain like ordinary mortals.
The white-haired man let out a shriek of agony and lashed out with his spear.
But Long Chen was already gone, having shot backward in a flash, causing the desperate counterattack to slice through empty air.
In the same instant, the Heaven Flipping Seal shrank down to the size of a brick and rocketed toward the white-haired man’s jaw.
BOOM!
Bone shattered on impact. The force sent the white-haired man spinning through the air, his blood splattering the ground.
The spectators were dumbfounded. Hadn’t the Heaven Flipping Seal been blasted away? How had it returned so quickly?
Then, they noticed the violet chain attached to it and immediately understood.
The Heaven Flipping Seal had never truly been out of Long Chen’s control. He had pulled it back with the chain like a flying mace, delivering a devastating blow. With all his focus on Long Chen, the white-haired man couldn’t dodge the silent attack from his blind spot.
“Devil Lily Breaker!” the white-haired man roared.
He opened his mouth, and a black blood arrow shot out toward Long Chen.
The moment it appeared, the arrow exploded, incinerating a hole in the void. From that abyss, a black lily bloomed at an unnatural speed.
Space trembled violently, twisting and warping in rapid succession. Each fluctuation sent a suffocating pressure rippling through the battlefield. This was undoubtedly a technique no ordinary flesh-and-blood body could withstand.
But then—
“Hey, where are you aiming?”
Somehow, Long Chen’s mocking voice came from behind the white-haired man, and the Heaven Flipping Seal smashed the back of his head.
Originally, this attack was aimed at the skull, but due to the distance involved and Long Chen’s inexperience with flying maces, his aim was slightly off.
The tip of the Heaven Flipping Seal struck the back of the white-haired man’s head, tearing open his scalp, while the rest of it crashed into his shoulder.
A sickening crack rang out as his shoulder shattered. He almost lost hold of his spear as he staggered forward.
Long Chen stamped on the air. Wielding the Heaven Flipping Seal like a flying mace, he sent it flying at the white-haired man again.
In response, the white-haired man swung his spear to block, but midway, he remembered—this was a flexible weapon, and it couldn’t be blocked like that. But it was too late to regret it.
His spear ended up entangled with the chain. The Heaven Flipping Seal spun around and smashed into his spine.
BOOM!
He spat out a mouthful of blood and stumbled forward, straight toward Long Chen.
Long Chen was stunned. Having never used such a weapon before, he had thought the Heaven Flipping Seal would strike the back of the man’s head, but he had left too much slack in the chain.
Seeing the white-haired man stumbling toward him, he instinctively slapped him across the face.
Once more, the white-haired man was sent flying by a slap. Long Chen pulled the chain, and the Heaven Flipping Seal whirled back into his grip.
From there, Long Chen unleashed a relentless barrage of attacks. The white-haired man roared in fury, trying desperately to defend himself, but the flying mace was unpredictable. Even Long Chen himself wasn’t entirely sure where the Heaven Flipping Seal would land next.
The white-haired man couldn’t do anything and quickly became covered in blood, which stained his white robe black.
The sky filled with afterimages of the Heaven Flipping Seal and its violet chain, and the sight dazzled the spectators.
The white-haired man was forced into retreat, unable to counterattack. Seeing this, the Undying race’s experts felt their blood surging with excitement.
BOOM!
Just as the cheers reached their peak, the flurry of afterimages vanished.
A moment later, everyone was stunned to see Long Chen holding his nose, his face scrunched up in pain.
“What…?”
The crowd was left baffled.
