Chapter 490 - Snowing Heavens

Chapter 490 - Snowing Heavens

The two most attention-grabbing items were the Demon Emperor Sword and the Snow Moon Knife. These were both intermediate Heaven-tier weapons, and both cultivators were equal in many aspects. That was why there was much to look forward to in this fight. In fact, many people were excited.

Of course, these were the opinions of other people.

This was Qin Huanyu’s first time proving his strength in front of so many people. He was a little nervous, so he gritted his teeth to suppress the discomfort in his heart. Then he decided to face the battle with passion in his blood. During his previous strike against Long Chen, he had indeed not taken Long Chen seriously.

The blades were out and the battle had begun. Qin Huanyu turned into an illusion and charged at Long Chen, leaving glints of light in the air where his Snow Moon Knife passed!

Qin Huanyu let out a low growl. With a dark gaze, he swung the Snow Moon Knife like a madman!

“Blizzard Strike!” This technique was like a blizzard in deep winter barreling towards Long Chen. The magnitude of this attack was much larger than the last time he used it against Long Chen. In the face of a threat like Long Chen, he had no choice but to use all his strength to achieve a glorious victory!

He had received two years of mentorship from the Clear Shallows King, so this was only right!

The crowd was awed by Qin Huanyu’s attack. Even the elders were impressed and said, “Huanyu’s knife technique has gotten more and more precise. The Blizzard Strike is an advanced Heaven-tier knife technique, though he is using the first strike of the sequence, which is at the intermediate Heaven-tier. However, it’s impressive that he has mastered it so thoroughly. If he proceeds to use the most powerful move, even I am no match for him.”

“Of course. How can we compare to someone who has received personal mentorship from the Clear Shallows King?”

The elders were powerful individuals for sure, but as they were already over thirty years old, they lacked potential.

While Qin Huanyu’s attacks impressed the crowd, Long Chen maintained his calm composure, just like before. However, there was a cold flash in his eyes.

He slashed his sword at the last moment. He used the Supreme Demon Sword, which was as powerful as before!

Rumble!

The sword and knife techniques collided, and powerful ripples radiated. The crowd quickly stepped back, and even their clothes billowed in the wind created by the attacks.

Their eyes remained glued to the battlefield.

Just as they expected, Long Chen was out of tricks. Qin Huanyu’s attack was more powerful this time, so it blasted Long Chen backwards, even flipping several times in the air.

“As expected, a newcomer can never be a match for a direct disciple ...” This thought popped into everyone’s minds.

This included the Clear Shallows King’s disciples, who thought the same. The stronger fighter was already determined just from this first exchange.

I hope Huanyu will listen to me and not kill him ... There was worry in Liu Yiyi’s eyes.

Long Chen was a little surprised by the move’s power, though it did not exceed his expectations. It was difficult for even a Seventh Passage Stage cultivator to use this attack to this magnitude, so when he launched the attack, the crowd thought that Qin Huanyu would surely win.

“Snowing Heavens can kill cultivators above the Seventh Passage Stage, let alone a Fifth Passage Stage cultivator.”

“It’s a pity the new kid has to die this way. Huanyu must have felt threatened, so he pulled out his strongest move against him. The kid will surely die unless the Clear Shallows King protects him.”

Everyone looked at the Clear Shallows King, who remained calm and did not move. It was clear that she had no intention of protecting anyone.

The crowd gasped when Snowing Heavens was used, but it did not scare Long Chen. It was admittedly powerful, but could it beat Ling Xi’s Heaven Sword Array?

The Demon Emperor Sword flashed and Long Chen accelerated. Then many sword symbols appeared in front of him and exploded into the Heaven Sword Array, which far exceeded Snowing Heavens in scale. It completely trapped Qin Huanyu inside.

This time, the Heaven Sword Array was more powerful than ever before because the more Qi Long Chen had, the more powerful the attack would become. In fact, this was the first time he could somewhat use the technique to its full potential!

The wind howled in their ears. Under the crowd’s shocked gazes, the blizzard from Snowing Heavens was completely swallowed by Long Chen’s Heaven Sword Array! Millions of sword symbols trapped Qin Huanyu’s attack, which completely disappeared!

“How is that possible!?” Cries of shock rang out like gushing water.

“A cultivator needs to be at least the Seventh Passage Stage to use such a powerful attack! Is Jiang Cheng a monster?”

“I saw him use this attack during the qualifiers, but it definitely wasn’t as scary as this!”

“Has he become that much stronger?”

Even the two Demon Generals’ faces twitched. Long Chen was insane to use a sword technique as powerful as this at just the Fifth Passage Stage!

“No! Huanyu will die!” The Clear Shallows King’s direct disciples were also shocked by Long Chen’s strength, but they were even more concerned that Qin Huanyu would die if the fight continued. Just a few moments ago, they thought Long Chen was the one who would die, but now Qin Huanyu was the one in mortal danger!

They yelled for the Clear Shallows King, begging for help, but then they realized that her gaze was still calm. However, there seemed to be an additional fire burning within it.

Liu Yiyi’s gaze also fell on the Clear Shallows King.

Mother really isn’t going to save Qin Huanyu... Liu Yiyi thought bitterly to herself. She knew that the Clear Shallows King would definitely not rescue Qin Huanyu, so it was up to her. No one else knew what Liu Yiyi was thinking.

“Stop it!” yelled Liu Yiyi. Her white dress billowed and she quickly rushed towards Long Chen.

“Stop?” Long Chen chuckled coldly. At this critical moment, not only did he not stop, he intensified his attack. Snowing Heaven had completely died down due to the powerful Heaven Sword Array by now. Then, to everyone’s shock, Long Chen’s Demon Emperor Sword pierced through Qin Huanyu’s heart, causing blood to spray!
