Chapter 6775 Sky-Shattering Saber
BANG!
The dagger stabbed into a violet screen an instant before it could reach Long Chen’s back.
The sneak attacker stared in disbelief. That dagger strike had contained all his power, but it was blocked just like that.
“The Shadow race?” Long Chen said as he slowly turned. “You’ve come to join the fun as well?”
The man was clearly standing there, yet his presence was faint to the point of near invisibility.
Long Chen instantly confirmed it. The sneak attacker was neither demon nor devil, but a member of the Shadow race—a branch of the Spirit race.
The Shadow race expert abruptly dissolved into a mass of black mist.
However, Long Chen gave him no chance to flee.
When a flower petal fell into his hand, it transformed into Evilmoon. With a single slash, Long Chen cleaved the void apart, and the Shadow race expert was severed along with it.
At the same moment, two more experts rushed in.
Long Chen swept Evilmoon outward, sending both divine sons flying back, blood spraying from their mouths.
“A group of ants wishes to block the footsteps of Long Chen? How laughable!”
Long Chen continued onward, petals flying around him. He seemed completely unstoppable as he carved his way through this massive army.
With three consecutive saber swings, three divine sons fell—two of them wielding powerful divine weapons.
In the merged state, a single petal of Evilmoon was strong enough to suppress ordinary Divine Sovereign magical items.
But even as Long Chen slaughtered them, he couldn’t scare them off. More and more of them swarmed him.
“Split the Heavens, first form!” Long Chen shouted, radiating a will to shatter the very heavens.
A giant blood-colored blade slashed through the battlefield.
Over ten divine sons joined forces to block it, but they were still sent tumbling back. Anyone below the level of a divine son caught in its path was annihilated outright.
“Split the heavens, second form!”
“Third form!”
Long Chen advanced as if strolling through a garden. With every step, he released another slash.
Each strike stacked upon the last, its power compounding. Even as reinforcements poured in, they were forced back again and again.
It looked as if Long Chen was simply blowing away fallen leaves.
Long Chen walked through the blood mist as if it were a carpet.
“Split the Heavens, ninth form!”
On his ninth step, Long Chen became one with the Evilmoon in his grasp. Blood-colored flames suddenly burst out of them.
BOOM!
Over a hundred divine sons had gathered in front of Long Chen. Although they joined forces, his Split the Heavens blasted them away.
Some were killed outright by the impact. After all, they had been receiving injuries all this time but refused to retreat for fear of losing face.
“Is Long Chen really this heaven-defying?” asked an observer.
Watching Long Chen progress, everyone was stunned. He completely overwhelmed these divine sons.
Without anyone realizing it, the focal point of the battlefield shifted. One by one, gazes turned toward Long Chen—especially those of the most conceited heavenly geniuses.
Seeking fame, they abandoned their original positions and ganged up on him.
Thanks to this, the Tiger Venerate line’s followers got a chance to breathe. The balance of the battlefield had silently shifted.
“As expected of the human race’s number one expert! I’m itching to test you out myself!” A voice like thunder shook the entire battlefield.
“It’s the Heaven Merging race’s number one heavenly genius, Yuan Tianhua!”
“I’ve heard Yuan Tianhua is the greatest genius in the history of the Three-Eyed Heaven Merging Ape race. With his Heaven Merging Golden Body, he’s never met an equal in the same realm. No acquired Divine Sovereign has ever lasted more than three moves against him!”
The demon race’s formations were thrown into chaos. It seemed that the majority of them had not realized that the Three-Eyed Heaven Merging Ape race was participating in this battle.
Brahma line’s instigation had led the demon race’s army to the Tiger Venerate’s ancestral land. Their target was the Tiger Venerate Scepter.
The Tiger Venerate Scepter was basically a bait. Anyone who could obtain it would be the demon race’s king, and they would receive the full support of Lord Brahma.
But with the Three-Eyed Heaven Merging Ape race present, many demon races instantly lost hope. As long as the former were here, the chances of anyone else obtaining the Tiger Venerate Scepter were nearly nonexistent.
BOOM!
Long Chen took another step forward and swung his sword as if sweeping away garbage.
As he watched the divine sons go flying, he casually responded, “If you’re really itching, then get over here. I’ll make sure you never itch again.”
His words were as arrogant as before, but now they also exuded a clear, naked provocation.
As expected, that voice replied, “Foolish human, are you in such a hurry to die?”
“A coward hiding in the dark thinks they can kill me? What a joke. There are two more shameful cowards hiding around here. Are you after the Tiger Venerate Scepter? You should just give up. As long as I, Long Chen, am here, no one will be able to touch the Tiger Venerate Scepter!” Long Chen declared
In the blink of an eye, Long Chen unleashed nine slashes of saber.
The first eight hung in the air without falling. But on the ninth slash, all of them merged and exuded a sharp pressure that distorted the color of the sky.
“Nine forms in one—Split the Heavens!”
Long Chen swung his saber again, this time with unrivaled might. Blood-colored runes and violet runes ignited atop Evilmoon, blending into a single blaze.
The land trembled violently as endless power poured into the saber-image.
It grew larger and larger, instinctively drawing in the strength of the earth.
“How can there be such a terrifying technique in this world?!”
Terrified screams rang out.
A crescent saber-image slashed forth, large beyond imagination. Everyone was shocked, including Long Chen.
Long Chen had started out with the first form of Split the Heavens to test out his combined power with Evilmoon. Thus, he used the technique he was most familiar with.
From those trials, he had confirmed that his violet blood’s destructive power had increased more than tenfold. With Evilmoon’s power in it, it became monstrous.
However, the fact that the final Split the Heavens would absorb the power of the earth all on its own was out of Long Chen’s expectations.
“Block it together!” a divine son shouted.
But their combined defensive formation was no more than an ant nest before a chariot wheel.
It was crushed in an instant.
