Chapter 391 - Myriad Soul Destruction

Long Chen rolled on the ground and used the momentum to run forward tens of meters to dodge her attack. He looked disheveled doing so, but he actually did it effortlessly to dodge her lethal move.

“You can dodge like that?” Murong Yu was impressed. Her Wilow Soul Dispersing Palm was a very deceptive technique that people always failed to notice when it was used in tandem with Traceless Demon Shadow. But not only had Long Chen detected it, he had even dodged it.

Long Chen turned around and saw that Murong Yu was only momentarily taken back before she launched another deadly attack at him.

He had no choice but to go all out when his opponent was a Ninth River Stage cultivator like her. He needed to defeat her to obtain the Demon Emperor Sword and complete his objective for joining the Heavenly Demon Palace. As long as he was strong, he could solve most of his issues slowly.

You think you’re the only one with the Qi of a Ninth River Stage cultivator? Long Chen chuckled and ran at Murong Yu. While charging, he transformed, and red scales covered his body. The tough scales and the menacing bone spikes warned Murong Yu of the danger. Long Chen was like a war god that radiated strength.

His speed suddenly exploded, and Murong Yu failed to notice it until the blood-red image was already in front of her.

“Willow Soul Dispersing Palm, Myriad Soul Destruction!”

At the critical moment, Murong Yu channeled all of her Qi into her palm. She launched a deadly palm strike towards Long Chen! Black mist swirled furiously around her and surged into her palm, causing her palm to appear to be burned.

What an extraordinary attack! Long Chen was shocked and brandished his halberd. He quickly whipped it around and formed a tornado before he lunged at the palm strike with the tip of his halberd.

He wanted to break through using a focused attack!

Several explosions sounded, but Long Chen failed to force his way through the attack using his intermediate Earth-tier martial technique. Even though he flew backward from the impact, he was not hurt. He landed safely, leaving Murong Yu shocked.

How does he have so much Qi? Did he use the Demon Seed Planting Technique? And did he use both stages? Murong Yu could only think of one possibility.

He is indeed a genius. If it wasn’t for the Frost Soul Essence that my master gave me, I would never have been his opponent. If I can’t kill him, I will die today. My family will also ... Murong Yu struggled with her predicament, but she forced herself to do what she needed to do. She needed to kill Long Chen, but her heart was struggling to do so every time she saw his face.

The life of her family and hers ... There was no competition there. She bit her lip and tried again.

“Since you’ve used the Demon Seed Planting Technique, I will do the same. Long Chen, let me show you the gap in our Qi after I use it!”

Long Chen appeared in front of her.

“Do you yield?”

“What is this?” It was difficult for others to understand what the Blood Devouring Domain was. She was still in shock and denial.

Her eyes were filled with unyielding will, but Long Chen shook his head. If he didn’t defeat her, the barrier surrounding the sword would most likely not disappear. So he punched the back of her neck and caused her to faint. Her eyes rolled upwards before she fell into his embrace.

Long Chen dispersed the domain and placed her on the ground. He didn’t hurt her but just rendered her unconscious.

“You might be at the Ninth River Stage, but the distance between us is big. Once I get the sword, you will never catch up to me. Still, take pride in the fact that you managed to reach the Ninth River Stage at your age.” He sighed and checked to make sure she was fine before he looked at the sword.

The black sword was still sealed at the altar, exuding horrific energy. It trembled lightly, and Long Chen heard a bone-chilling sound before the barrier disappeared.

He had defeated Murong Yu and the sword had somehow detected it.

The Demon Emperor Sword was an important object that Long Chen needed to get his hands on to complete his objectives, and he never thought that it would fall in his hands. Long Chen thanked his luck for being able to meet Zhao Qingyun, or who knew how much longer he would’ve had to wait to take revenge on the imperial family.

It would most definitely take much more than three months.

Three months had passed. It was neither a long or short time.

“Brother Chen, this weapon is not at the elementary Heaven-tier!” Ling Xi shouted in surprise when she could finally inspect the weapon when the barrier disappeared.

“Then how strong is it?” Long Chen was excited by the pleasant surprise.

“If I’m not wrong, this should be an intermediate Heaven-tier weapon, and it's even at the peak of its tier! It’s very close to being able to pass as an advanced Heaven-tier weapon. I couldn’t detect the strength of the Imperial Sword last time because I was trapped in a mortal’s body, but I’m sure that it’s at the same tier!”

“To think that there’s an intermediate Heaven-tier weapon in the Cangyang Kingdom. I thought the treasure that could secure the future of the Cangyang Kingdom was only at the elementary Heaven-tier at most.” Long Chen smiled in delight because this meant he was going to become stronger than he had thought.
