Chapter 493 - Universe Eight Trigrams Array

Long Chen didn’t really want to fight Liu Yiyi, but since he had agreed to it, he would fight with all his strength. Apologizing for no reason was not something a man was supposed to dol.

Although Liu Yiyi was a girl, Long Chen did not dare act recklessly. After all, reaching the Seventh Passage Stage was no simple achievement.

“I have cultivated an advanced Heaven-tier body tempering technique and many advanced Heaven-tier combat techniques. You should be careful. Don’t you dare die on me,” Liu Yiyi reminded him before they fought.

Long Chen felt the weight of a mountain on his shoulders.

He felt like his opponent had everything he had, and more. How could he fight like that?

Long Chen took a deep breath, and at the same time, blood-red dragon scales slowly covered his body. He had no choice but to use his strongest form to face her attacks. This was going to be the most difficult fight of his life, and to be honest, facing Qin Huanyu had been effortless. On the other hand, he did not have much confidence in defeating Liu Yiyi. All he could do was fight the best he could. The only advantage he had was that he was more vicious than his opponent.

The Demon Emperor Sword appeared in Long Chen’s hands.

Liu Yiyi did not hold back once she saw that Long Chen was prepared. Under the night sky, she slowly revealed the strength of a Seventh Passage Stage cultivator. A powerful gust of aura blasted into Long Chen’s face, blowing dust and sand into the air as well.

Her aura was more than ten times stronger than Qin Huanyu’s. As expected of the daughter of the Clear Shallows King—she was indeed extraordinary.

A technique like the Demon Emperor Sword Technique was surely insufficient against her, let alone Long Chen’s other attacks. Long Chen’s mind raced as he looked for a solution. All he could do was launch a storm of attacks against Liu Yiyi the moment they started so she would have no time to retaliate. If he did not do this, he would have no chance of winning.

When Liu Yiyi announced the start of the duel, Long Chen’s eyes sprang open and he turned into a red line. He suddenly appeared in front of Liu Yiyi, moving the fastest he had ever moved in his life.

“You have decent speed,” Liu Yiyi said. She had witnessed Long Chen’s capabilities before, so his performance so far was within her expectations.

“Supreme Demon Sword!”

Once he approached her, he unleashed the Supreme Demon Sword twice, striking at her front, back, left, and right. The wind howled and trenches formed in the ground from his attacks.

Liu Yiyi’s expression remained unchanged. Her white dress fluttered, making her look like a pure fairy beneath the moonlight. With a gentle gesture of her hand, she formed a seal, and invisible ripples radiated towards him.

“Space Breaking Seal ...”

She gave a soft cry, and the countless runes spun into a gigantic array. The image of the eight trigrams appeared within it and flew up towards the descending Heaven Sword Array!

If the Heaven Sword Array was described as fast and sharp, then the Universe Eight Trigrams Array was stable and solid. The Universe Eight Trigrams Array contained a gigantic amount of destructive force and was the bane of sword arrays like Long Chen’s attack. When faced with the Universe Eight Trigrams Array, the Heaven Sword Array started to break down!

The Heaven Sword Array’s sharp Sword Qi also made the Universe Eight Trigrams Array to fall apart. This exchange of attacks under the influence of the Blood Devouring Domain was actually a draw since neither could completely destroy the other!

Boom!

There was a loud boom, and both attacks were pulverized at the same time. A huge amount of energy surged in all directions, turning the boulders nearby into crumbs. The momentum from the attack shredded Long Chen’s body, which would have resulted in a tragedy if he weren’t so hardy.

Similarly, Liu Yiyi did not fare well against Long Chen’s Heaven Sword Array. The Blood Devouring Domain made her feel miserable, but she had survived the Heaven Sword Array. Knowing that Long Chen had exhausted great amounts of Qi to launch the Heaven Sword Array once, she would surely win if he had no other tricks.

Long Chen saw the easy smile on her face. This meant that she was very confident in winning.

I wonder what this girl’s final move will be. Long Chen knew something was up when he saw her smile. She surely had a final trick up her sleeve, though he did not know what it would be.

But this would not affect Long Chen’s plan. After his Heaven Sword Array was destroyed, he raised the Demon Emperor Sword without a word and charged at Liu Yiyi!

The closer he got, the more effective his final move would be.

Long Chen had already made his brazen promise, and there was no chance he would ever kowtow to Qin Huanyu, nor was he willing to lose to Liu Yiyi. He was ready to risk it all.

Whoosh! Long Chen was merely ten meters away from Liu Yiyi. That was when he sensed a threat behind him. Startled, he thought, Is this what she’s been hiding up her sleeve?

Liu Yiyi was clearly standing in front of him; how could there be a threat coming from the back?

Long Chen could not figure it out. All he could do was turn around as quickly as possible, to which he gasped in surprise, “Divine Fire Clone?”

Of course, what had appeared in front of him was not a Divine Fire Clone, but a divine technique that used the same concept. A black shadow was charging at him. Although he had only taken a glance, he was sure that some sort of clone was attacking him!

The shadow even possessed more than half of Liu Yiyi’s strength!
