Chapter 406 - Supreme Emperor Sword

Chapter 406 - Supreme Emperor Sword

When Long Chen used the Supreme Emperor Sword, despair flashed in the eyes of the Sword Devil. But soon, it was overshadowed by his madness. He roared furiously and used all of his Qi. He wanted to take Long Chen down with him!

This kid is only at the Eighth River Stage. How could he unleash such a powerful technique? The momentum of the Supreme Emperor Sword is even more terrifying than my Imperial Heaven Sword!

As this thought flashed through the mind of the Sword Devil, the Imperial Heaven Sword and the Supreme Emperor Sword clashed, causing the entire Counter Essence Realm to tremble violently. For a moment, the world lost its color. The dense, white clouds in the sky dispersed and all the spiritual herbs around them turned into powder in that instant!

"Break!" Long Chen roared. The black sword Qi emitted by the Demon Emperor Sword shattered the Imperial Heaven Sword. With a loud explosion, the sword in the Sword Devil's hand turned into fragments. Long Chen’s attack forced the shrapnel into the Sword Devil’s body, covering him in cuts and blood. Then the attack of the Demon Emperor Sword finally descended upon the Sword Devil and violently sent him flying backward. Although Long Chen didn't kill the Sword Devil immediately, the attack had inflicted a life-threatening injury!

In a real showdown of strength, the Sword Devil was no match for Long Chen. Long Chen had suppressed him completely!

When the dust settled, Long Chen caught the Sword Devil and pressed him onto the ground. The Sword Devil's vision was blurry and his whole body was in excruciating pain. His internal organs were almost shattered, and there wasn't a single intact bone in his body. The pieces of his broken sword were pushed deeper into his body and heavily mutilated him.

"Long Chen..." With one remaining eye, the Sword Devil looked at Long Chen. He had never imagined that he would die at the hands of such a young man. Seeing the cold expression on this young man's face, he realized how terrifying Long Chen truly was.

This young man had killed Song Yuefeng, the Ninth Prince, the six commanders, and even Song Zhongcheng! Long Chen seemed like a legend, and another accomplishment had been added to the list. The Sword Devil shuddered to think what kind of conflict would erupt in the imperial city.

The Sword Devil felt that he was just the first. In the future, Long Chen would kill many more people. With Long Chen's current strength, he could confront Lin Zichen, who was even more powerful than the Sword Devil. Long Chen was indeed powerful, but Lin Zichen couldn’t be written off. No one knew who was stronger ...

The only thing the Sword Devil didn't understand was why Long Chen hadn't killed him immediately.

At that moment, Long Chen pressed him down and leaned close to the Sword Devil. "Tell me, where is the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit?"

"No way..." Although he didn't know what Long Chen wanted to do with the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit, there was absolutely no way he would give him what he wanted.

The phrase "no way" indicated that there was definitely a Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit here. Otherwise, the Sword Devil wouldn't have said that.

"Think carefully. Tell me the location of the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit. Otherwise, I will take away all the spiritual herbs and kill all of the Immortal Guards here until I find it. I will get my hands on it one way or another. Choose," Long Chen threatened.

"Brother Chen, forget about the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit. It won't be good if the Sword Emperor comes here!" Ling Xi was still hesitant about acquiring the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit, so she didn't want it as much as before.

"No, I must try again!" Long Chen said decisively and quickly moved. With the Soul Swallowing Gaze highlighting every single living being within a Li, Long Chen planned to search the area in a carpet sweep!

He guessed that when the Counter Essence Realm experienced abnormalities, the Sword Devil would send a signal to the Sword Emperor. When the Sword Emperor received the signal, it would take roughly fifteen minutes for him, with his Heavenly Passage Realm strength, to arrive at the Counter Essence City. Long Chen had killed the Sword Devil in less than fifteen minutes, so he had less time than that to find the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit!

He didn’t pause for even a moment, only getting faster and faster! Whenever he discovered the location of a strong individual, Long Chen swiftly approached them just like how he had done with the Bloodseal Lotus. Even though a huge commotion had kicked off in the Counter Essence Realm, there would still be at least one Eighth River Stage guard guarding each spiritual herb!

Time passed as Long Chen combed the area. He found several Eighth River Stage experts, but they were not guarding spiritual herbs. More than half of them were heading towards where the Sword Devil had died!

"Brother Chen, time’s up. I think what the Sword Devil said is true. We haven't detected a single trace of the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit, so it must’ve been taken by the Sword Emperor. If we don't leave now, we won’t stand a chance once the Sword Emperor arrives!" Ling Xi urged him anxiously.

"Fuck!" Long Chen punched the ground and cracked it!

"Fine! Since the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit is with him, I'll kill him and take it if he hasn’t used it. I’m sure I’ll be able to kill him once I reach the Ninth River Stage and transform into my dragon form!"

In the end, Long Chen failed to find the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit. He had searched through most of the Advanced Zone of the Counter Essence Realm, and he had no choice but to give up and head towards the exit!

On the way, Ling Xi saw Long Chen's gloomy face and tried to console him. "Brother Chen, don't be angry. I am not in a hurry. The Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit can wait. Moreover, we found two Heaven-tier spiritual herbs and also the mysterious stone talisman ..."

"I know, Xiao Xi. You don't need to comfort me," Long Chen said when he reached the entrance of the Advanced Zone. He had located it earlier when he was searching. Long Chen changed back to his previous appearance and became a twenty-five-year-old man again.

Someone will definitely stop us at the exit once we head out of here. I will use Blood Warp and escape to where Xiaolang is! Long Chen took a deep breath and ran out of the entrance. Sure enough, countless attacks descended on him in an instant, including attacks from Eighth River Stage warriors. However, Long Chen had anticipated this. He instantly activated Blood Warp and disappeared in front of everyone. He was nothing but a blur of red.

The people looked at each other in shock.

"Where did he go?"
