Chapter 6548 Surging Killing Intent

Sword-light swept through the air, bringing with it a storm of blood. Yue Zifeng had woken up and recovered. Without hesitation, he rushed toward Long Chen’s battlefield.

“Qian Jie, let’s try this again!”

With a thunderous shout, Yue Zifeng descended, his sword slashing the void apart. The violent Sword Dao will surging from his blade made even Qian Jie shudder.

He directly charged into the battlefield, his sword slashing down thunderously. The violent Sword Dao will from his blade made even Qian Jie shudder.

“A breakthrough?” Qian Jie was startled.

Bronze runes blazed across Qian Jie’s fist as he met the incoming sword.

BOOM!

The Sword Qi blew apart Qian Jie’s fist, and Yue Zifeng pressed forward relentlessly.

BOOM!

Qian Jie howled as his battle armor shattered beneath the next slash.

Yue Zifeng was now a half-step Sovereign Lord, his Sword Qi fierce and unstoppable. Every blow contained a heaven-destroying power that sent Qian Jie flying back.

“Kill!”

Gu Yang, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, Bai Xiaole, Xia Chen, and Guo Ran came flying out. The cracks on Long Chen’s astral gates had grown, and his aura was weakening. He probably wouldn’t be able to last much longer.

Gu Yang, Li Qi, and Song Mingyuan joined forces against Ye Xun with his Daynight Furnace, while Bai Xiaole, Xia Chen, and Guo Ran faced Fan Ji. But to their shock, both enemies were overwhelmingly powerful. Their weapons were in a league beyond legacy Divine Sovereign armaments.

Their Daynight Furnace and Brahma Divine Diagram contained terrifying faith energy. Their law domains crushed everything around them.

Even so, Guo Ran and the others gritted their teeth and continued tying them down. They didn’t need to win—they simply had to buy time for Long Chen.

With Qian Jie, Ye Xun, and Fan Ji held back—and Tuo Ya caught up fighting Cang Lu—only Tian Leizi remained before Long Chen.

A spark of vitality returned to Long Chen.

“Now that those meddlesome fools are gone, I’ll end this in one blow!” Tian Leizi roared. “Lightning Law—Swallow the Heavens!”

As Tian Leizi formed a series of hand seals, the world shook. Endless lightning runes around him condensed into an enormous dragon.

“Starry Ocean—God Slaying Cross!”

Long Chen raised his hand. The eight astral gates behind him shuddered, and a starry cross appeared on his palm.

The cross smashed into the dragon’s skull and blew it apart.

BOOM!

“Bastard!”

Tian Leizi was startled and outraged. This lightning dragon was one of his greatest techniques. However, unleashing it required two steps: condensing it and then bestowing it with life.

To do so, Tian Leizi had to use his Spiritual Strength to bestow the lightning dragon with his law power. In truth, this was a technique for Sovereign Lords. Only those of that realm could wield it, and the true mastery belonged to Divine Sovereigns.

While Tian Leizi’s talent allowed him to attempt it, his cultivation realm wasn’t enough. As a result, he could only form the body first and then slowly infuse it with law power afterward.

But before he could finish the second step, Long Chen shattered it, causing him to nearly vomit blood.

“Your astral energy is exhausted now, while I still have countless trump cards. What can you possibly use to fight me?!” roared Tian Leizi.

After this one attack, Long Chen’s eight astral gates were fully covered in cracks, looking like they would shatter apart at any moment. Their starlight had dimmed.

“Heavenly Lightning—Condense!” Tian Leizi shouted.

He raised his hand to gather all the lightning runes in the air.

But nothing moved.

Confused, he turned around and froze.

At some point, tens of thousands of lightning dragons had appeared in the sky, devouring all his lightning runes.

Tian Leizi roared and charged at those lightning runes. They were his heavenly lightning, precious beyond measure. Each of them contained fragments of his essence laws.

The lightning dragons gathered together, twisting into the shape of a beautiful maiden. She raised her hand, forming a lightning spear, and hurled it.

BOOM!

Tian Leizi’s punch collided with the spear, and he was blasted backward.

“Big Brother Long Chen, after devouring his lightning, I am as strong as a half-step Sovereign Lord. Leave him to me!” Lei Linger shouted, chasing Tian Leizi with a flurry of lightning-spear attacks.

“A lightning spirit?!”

Tian Leizi blocked her attacks, furious to realize that she had devoured his law power and was now using it against him.

Seeing that Lei Linger was holding Tian Leizi back, Long Chen took a deep breath.

He knew he had reached his limit.

This nirvanic rebirth had been far harder than expected. In the end, he had failed to perfect it.

If he’d had even a little more time—an incense stick’s worth—his eight stars would have merged with his eight gates completely.

Unfortunately, he had fallen short, and the once-tiny crack resulted in a massive flaw. The stars and gates repelled one another, weakening him, fighting his control, and ravaging his body and soul.

He had been forcing them into submission the entire time. Even so, the power they granted had been immense.

If they had fully merged, he would have been able to sweep through all these enemies. Regrettably, the heavens would not give him that chance.

However, Long Chen had no regrets. Let alone an incense stick’s worth of time, if he had come out a single breath later, the Dragonblood Legion would have been annihilated.

Only now did he finally have the chance to look toward the battlefield.

The Dragonblood warriors and dragon race experts were launching a fierce counterattack. Because of the sacrificial offering, they too had become half-step Sovereign Lords.

Long Chen sighed inwardly. It was a good thing he hadn’t killed Long Xu. That one move had become their lifesaving chess piece.

One squad of Dragonblood warriors protected the original devil race as they rampaged through the devil army. Even Sovereign Lord dark devils were suppressed by the original devils’ divine runes, making them easy prey.

But those runes worked only on devils. Against other races, the divine runes had little effect, sometimes completely negligible.

On Fan Ji’s side, there were experts of all kinds of races. Huo Linger was attacking them with Zhi Zhi. They were doing their best to look after everyone.

Huo Linger had become a half-step Sovereign Lord before Lei Linger. She was definitely on the level of the captains, while Zhi Zhi was not far behind.

Zhi Zhi’s vines lashed out like spears, as swift as lightning, striking from unseen angles.

However, their enemies were just too overwhelming, and the battlefield was too chaotic. They were still at a crushing disadvantage.

Then, Long Chen’s brief moment of respite ended abruptly.

BOOM!

Long Chen struck out with a palm. A loud bang followed, and Long Biluo appeared.

“Hahaha, you really are at the end of the line. Now is the best time to kill you!”

After this one exchange, Long Biluo’s killing intent fully ignited. She had confirmed that Long Chen’s astral energy was completely exhausted.

However, before she could strike again, a zither’s gentle hum rang out, drawing Long Chen’s attention.

Long Chen traced the sound—and his heart trembled.

“Long Chen, do you not care about your woman’s life?”

Prince Chun Yang’s slimy voice slithered across the battlefield. Inside the Heavenly Devil Zither, he held Zi Yan by the throat. It was impossible to tell whether she was alive or dead.

Long Chen’s heart stopped beating for a moment—

—and everything went silent.

Black spots blossomed within his eyes.

Then an indescribably savage killing intent erupted, like a volcano tearing open the sky.
