Chapter 6367 Bone Throne, Battle Robe
The throne was made of countless bones that emitted an incredibly strong aura of resentment. Looking closer, Long Chen recognized them: the remains of experts from the nine heavens.
There were bones of humans, demons, the Blood race, and many lifeforms Long Chen didn't even know—yet every skeleton bore an aura specifically belonging to the nine heavens. They had been stripped of their rest and bound into this hateful seat.
Long Chen had kept his composure all this time. But now, his head buzzed and fury boiled within him.
Cang Lu was using the bones of the people of the nine heavens to strengthen himself. In other words, he used the dead to kill their descendants.
Finally, Long Chen understood what Sovereign Yun Shang meant about washing away the humiliation of the nine heavens.
Even after so many years, those bones still cried out, full of hatred. They were unwilling to be used as pawns by their enemy, yet they were powerless to resist. Their resentment lingered, generating a baleful aura so potent that people’s souls shuddered upon sensing it.
With no way to control themselves, the bones became part of Cang Lu’s manifestation when the throne appeared.
The next moment, Cang Lu’s aura grew wildly, and his Bloodfiend Wings ignited, unleashing raging flames. His power underwent a fundamental transformation with this throne’s support. Now, his presence was enough to drive people to despair.
“This throne is merely an energy source for my nirvanic rebirth. It doesn’t grant a massive power boost. At most, it multiplies my strength threefold,” Cang Lu said, his voice haughty.
He stared coldly at Long Chen before continuing, “It is far inferior to the Dark Throne the Dark Master gave me. I can only summon that once my power recovers to the Divine Sovereign realm. Against an ant like you, though, this bone throne is more than sufficient. It also gives me the chance to show these damned spirits how I slaughter their descendants.”
After speaking, Cang Lu unleashed a palm. Though separated by miles, the space around Long Chen exploded, forming a giant black hole.
“This speed...!”
“This power...!”
Everyone was shocked. These were not empty boasts. With the throne’s support, Cang Lu’s power had truly multiplied.
“Is Long Chen dead?!” asked someone.
After all, the spectators could only see the black hole. Long Chen’s figure was nowhere in sight.
“Long Chen, kill this Cang Lu!” an expert from the nine heavens roared with fury.
Shockingly, it came from a devil-race expert. He had seen the bones of his ancestors bound into that throne. If not for the immense power gap, he would have charged at Cang Lu immediately. In the end, the devil race also had dignity, and they could not accept the existence of this throne.
Although the devil race had a long-standing enmity with Long Chen, circumstances put them on the same side against Cang Lu.
All the nine heavens’ experts were filled with outrage. This throne was not merely a weapon; it was an insult to the entire nine heavens, and none of them could tolerate it.
BOOM!
Just then, the black hole split open, and Long Chen walked out of it, his gaze as sharp as a blade.
“Big Brother Yun Shang, I will return the humiliation they gave us!” Long Chen roared his declaration, spreading his arms.
The Starry Sky Battle Robe from his starry space materialized around him, radiating power that made the void itself tremble.
“Kill!”
Long Chen’s roar thundered through the air as he surged forward. The Starry Sky Battle Robe left a trail of stars as he shot through the air, looking both beautiful and violent.
“Starry River God Extinguishing Spear!” Long Chen shouted.
A starry spear filled with heaven-destroying power shot toward Cang Lu.
This time, Cang Lu’s expression changed, and he quickly formed a series of hand seals. As the throne ignited, he stepped to the side. Then, one of his Bloodfiend Wings slashed down like heavenly blades.
BOOM!
The Bloodfiend Wing and the starry spear collided, unleashing an impact that shook the air violently. Qi waves radiated outward, blowing spectators back. Many of them spat out blood.
Mu Qingyun drew her sword, slicing through the shockwave with her Sword Qi, narrowly avoiding a direct hit. However, she was still sent flying, almost losing her grip on her sword.
“What kind of power is this?” she gasped. The sheer force of the shockwaves alone was terrifying.
“Starry River God Extinguishing Spear!”
Just then, Long Chen shouted, and another starry spear condensed.
“What?!
Cang Lu was shocked. How could Long Chen unleash such a devastating attack without storing energy? One of his wings was broken and his body had yet to recover. With no other option, he shouted and sent his giant throne flying in front of him.
BOOM!
Long Chen’s starry spear slammed into the bone throne. As a result, the starry spear exploded, while the bone throne went tumbling back.
“Starry River God Extinguishing Spear!”
This time, Cang Lu’s face was drained of color. He hadn’t even taken a proper breath before Long Chen’s roar echoed again in his ears. How could this be?
He had killed countless nine star heirs in the past, but he had never experienced such a phenomenon.
A powerful attack definitely required storing up energy before unleashing it. Moreover, every single step had to be done cautiously; otherwise, the backlash would injure the user. This was the common sense of the cultivation world.
It dictated that the greater the power of a technique, the greater the danger to the user as well as the target.
The bone throne tried to block the incoming spears. Though it survived, the impact battered Cang Lu further, forcing more blood from his mouth.
“Let’s see how many times you can use this move! Once you’re out of power, it will be time for your death!” roared Cang Lu.
“Starry River God Extinguishing Spear!”
“Starry River God Extinguishing Spear!”
“Starry River God Extinguishing Spear!”
...
The stars shook. People could no longer see Long Chen’s figure. All they saw was one giant spear after another condensing and slamming at Cang Lu. From their distant vantage point, the spectators could only watch as an endless barrage struck the bone throne.
People’s jaws dropped. Was Long Chen a monster? How could he control so much astral energy?
BOOM!
In front of everyone’s shocked gazes, the giant bone throne finally exploded.
“Cang Lu, it’s time for you to die!”
Long Chen’s furious roar shook the heavens, and another starry spear shot at Cang Lu.
