Chapter 567 - My Reason To Live

Long Chen took several steps back with some resignation.

“The Golden Thread Kingsnake is hiding somewhere in the giant snake. Use your Soul Swallowing Gaze to find it, then do your best to kill it. After you kill the kingsnake, all the little fiery snakes will disappear. You have an advantage here because you know where it is. Other people might end up half-dead trying to fight the snake without knowing where it is,” said Little Cat.

Although Long Chen was able to find it, killing it would not be easy!

Compared to Long Yue and the others, he was at a disadvantage because he was too weak. After passing the reward room earlier, he knew that they were progressing faster than he was.

The gigantic, fiery snake took up a quarter of the cave when coiled. It glared menacingly at Long Chen. He was still in the passageway, and the moment he entered the cave, it would unleash a storm of attacks on him.

Using the Soul Swallowing Gaze, Long Chen saw the Golden Thread Kingsnake in its abdomen, though it probably wouldn’t remain in the same location. The Golden Thread Kingsnake was moving slowly as it studied Long Chen. It was in control of the gigantic body.

The center of its abdomen was not an easy spot to get to.

What now?

The Golden Thread Kingsnake was a Category Two King-tier for a reason, despite its only flaw, which was having a weak defense. Long Chen was strong enough to kill it, but he would have to find the perfect opportunity.

I wonder if it’s able to distinguish between my Demon Illusion clone and myself? Long Chen released his Demon Illusion clone, which was holding an intermediate Heaven-tier sword. With a whoosh, his clone charged into the cave but did not attack the gigantic snake. Instead, it charged towards a corner! Aall newest chapters on n.o./velbi/n/(.)com

Hiss!

Countless hisses rang. The gigantic snake blurred as it charged at the clone!

I’m afraid my clone will be destroyed here. Long Chen frowned. The clone was a very helpful tool, and if it was destroyed, he would be weakened. However, all he really needed to do was kill the snake to pass to the next stage.

Under Long Chen’s control, the clone suddenly turned around after it rushed to the corner. The gigantic snake was very close now, and the tall flames on its body flew at the clone like a flaming mountain!

Long Chen had the clone use its most powerful attack, the Heaven Sword Array. It sent a tidal wave of sword symbols flying at the gigantic snake!

When the array collided with the snake, large flames shot out of its head, as if there were explosions. More sparks flew in all directions while the giant snake screamed and quickly retreated. The clone’s Heaven Sword Array had taken a chunk off its head!

But then the countless little snakes slithered up and quickly filled up the hole. The fiery snake only shrank by a tiny bit as a result.

This showed just how resilient the snake was. Long Chen would probably have to use the Heaven Sword Array thousands of times in order to make it completely disappear, but that was impossible.

If he did not find another method to deal with the snake, it would be impossible for him to pass!

The Divine Fire Realm was indeed a terrifying place.

The real Long Chen was waiting in the tunnel, holding his breath. Just as expected, after his clone shot out, the kingsnake’s full attention was on his clone. It did not seem to notice Long Chen!

That was when Long Chen charged!

He had been waiting for this moment. With the Desolate Cleaving Sword in hand, he used the Blood Devouring Domain on the snake the moment he shot out. The Dragon Soul Transformation and Blood Devouring Domain had become necessities in his recent battles, bringing him countless victories!

It was the same this time!

Long Chen covered a distance of ten meters in the blink of an eye. The gigantic snake was about five meters wide. With red flames covering his body, he slammed his fist onto the gigantic snake to open a hole. Then he unleashed the Heaven Sword Array towards the kingsnake!

With the boost of the Golden Crow’s soul remnants, his Heaven Sword Array was ten times more powerful than the clone’s array! Since Long Chen had managed to get very close, the kingsnake could not react in time. The Blood Devouring Domain played a huge part in this as well, but most importantly, the Demonic Illusion clone had completely tricked it!

Sword symbols with red flames exploded, covering a ten meter radius around Long Chen with burning Sword Qi. The Golden Thread Kingsnake was completely trapped!

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

Countless fiery snakes were destroyed by the Heaven Sword Array. The gigantic fiery snake was severed in half, and the kingsnake could not dodge in time. It drowned in Long Chen’s Sword Qi!

Long Chen had poured all his strength into this final attack!

It was a perfect fatal strike that had successfully cut the Golden Thread Kingsnake in half!

He had won!

Long Chen had the urge to fall to his knees.

Admittedly, both tests were close calls. In the first test, he would not have passed if it were not for Xiaolang. This time, he would not have passed if he did not have his Demonic Illusion clone or the Soul Swallowing Gaze. Although the Divine Fire Realm was treacherous, it was as if the tests were designed for Long Chen.

The fiery snake disappeared completely when the Golden Thread Kingsnake died. They turned into small flames that fell on the ground like rain, creating a beautiful sight. Millions of tiny sparks covered the ground.

The only loss he had suffered was the Demonic Illusion clone.

The Demonic Illusion had brought Long Chen a lot of benefits. If he did not have it while fighting the Void Martial Saint, he would not have won either.

Most importantly, he had cultivated the Demonic Illusion with Liu Yiyi.

The girl who was very similar to Ling Xi.

Two faces appeared in his mind. In the end, he could not let go of the image of Ling Xi.

What is love? I don’t know, but I’m chasing after Ling Xi as if she’s my reason to live.

Long Chen stood up, looking around numbly.
