Long Chen moved with incredible speed, like a bolt of lightning. The Minghong Blade, infused with endless star power, slashed down from the air.
"Ant, today I'll show you for yourself. Even if you cultivate for a hundred thousand years, you still can't comprehend this power."
Moluo Tianye raised his long staff amid a cold laugh. At that moment, the staff actually merged with the runes on his arm and smashed down fiercely toward the charging Long Chen.
"Boom!"
With a deafening explosion, the world suddenly darkened. People instantly lost sight of everything, feeling as if the space around them was twisting, as if their bodies were about to be crushed. Countless people spat blood wildly.
People were shocked. Wearing armor and standing so far away, they were unable to defend against this strange force.
When everyone's vision returned, Long Chen wielded the Minghong Blade, slashing fiercely down toward Moluo Tianye.
That scene was exactly the same as before, as if it were a repeat of the previous scene. People looked terrified, wondering if it was just their imagination. With such a terrifying strike, shouldn't they recover their breath?
"Boom!"
Another earth-shattering explosion rang out, this time even louder than before. No shockwaves or ripples could be seen. People felt as if their souls and bodies had been struck by a meteor at the same time, as if their bodies and souls were about to be torn apart.
"Everyone retreat back into the city, quickly...!"
Guo Ran suddenly shouted. Countless people were already wounded, but upon hearing Guo Ran's order, they immediately withdrew without hesitation.
When people withdrew into the city, looking out through the observation array and looking toward the distant battlefield, the endless battlefield was littered with corpses. Countless magical beasts had been slaughtered to death by the power of the two men, and even the powerful members of the Moluo clan were retreating in terror.
"Rumble...
Suddenly, a long blade like a god's blade pierced through the sky and pierced straight into the ninth heaven.
The long blade pierced through the sky-covering demonic energy. From that large hole, people could see an endless starry sky, while the blade pierced straight into the nebula.
"Activate the protective array to the extreme, hold nothing back." Guo Ran shouted loudly.
"Rumble..."
As Guo Ran shouted, the entire Shengtian City trembled. A light screen appeared, and in the blink of an eye, over a thousand protective barriers materialized, wrapping the entire city tightly.
"Bastard, you're playing dirty tricks with me."
Moluo Tianye roared in anger. He clashed head-on with Long Chen twice, noticing that Long Chen's two strikes seemed offense but actually defense. The momentum unleashed by the first strike was absorbed by the second, and the momentum of the second strike was absorbed by the third.
And this strike was Long Chen's true finishing blow. The first two were merely groundwork for the third, and by the time he realized it, the terrifying blade aura attached to Long Chen's third strike had already locked him tightly in place.
Most terrifying, in the starry sky above the multitude, some starlight suddenly lit up, illuminating the massive blade shadow. There were already 999 stars on the blade shadow, sensed by it, and suddenly erupted with boundless power.
"Idiot, you're the one who thinks you're awesome, refusing to go all out at once, and instead wants to play a cat-and-mouse game with me.
You have missed every opportunity; what awaits you is only death. I will use your head to honor the warriors who sacrificed their lives in war. "
Buzz" Long Chen's
eyes flashed with murderous intent. Suddenly, a pair of wings sprouted from his back—one of flames, one of thunder. Thunder and flame intertwined, making Long Chen stand tall like an undefeated war god above the mortal world.
Long Chen's long blade pointed toward the sky, but before it could be struck, the terrifying power began to wail in sorrow, and even heaven and earth felt fear at this power.
Stars shone brilliantly above the sky, granting this blade boundless power. At this moment, Long Chen was the war god beneath this starry sky, controlling all the power of the stars.
One man and one blade, killing intent soaring to the sky. Long Chen stood firmly on the earth, his head above the starry sky—an indescribable unmatched presence. The people inside the city watched this scene, deeply imprinted in their minds, never to be forgotten.
Guo Ran shouted excitedly. In his memory, Long Chen was supposed to be like this—soaring between heaven and earth, unmatched by anyone.
Meanwhile, the Star River Warriors gazed at the starry sky above, and the endless sense of righteousness enlightened their minds. Many mysterious aspects of the Star River Firmament Technique suddenly became clear.
They looked at Long Chen with eyes full of awe and admiration. Long Chen had taught them the Galaxy Firmament Technique without reservation. This magnanimity was comparable to the Milky Way in the sky—a spiritual realm they could never reach in their lifetime.
Long Chen opened a door for them, allowing them to see a broader world. In their hearts, Long Chen was truly a god.
"Crack, crack, crack..."
Suddenly, a spiderweb-like crack appeared in the space beneath Moluo Tianye's feet. It was as if some terrifying force was pressing down on him, and his body began to tremble.
"Just locking on the aura is enough to overwhelm Moluo Tianye. This guy is doomed to die." Xie Liuer and the others shouted excitedly.
At this moment, Moluo Tianye was trembling all over, holding a long staff, his Supreme Bone glowing, his expression both shocked and furious.
"Despicable humans, all they know is to play tricks and schemes. But do you really think you can defeat a great supreme-level powerhouse just by doing this? Dream on. Moluo Blood Sacrifice! Moluo
Tianye roared, suddenly forming a strange hand gesture with his left hand. When they saw it, the people inside the city were shocked:
"How could the Moluo clan possibly form hand seals?"
They had fought against the Moluo clan for countless years, but had never heard of them forming hand seals.
"Puff puff puff..."
As he formed his hand seals, the powerful warriors of the Mo Luo clan hiding in the distance self-destructed one after another. After all, even after the war, the Mo Luo clan still had millions of powerful fighters.
The Moluo clan's powerful warriors self-destructed, and the remaining magical beast army collapsed to the ground, their bodies rapidly withered, their vital energy drained by the strange force.
Seeing this, people couldn't help but feel their scalps tingle. The Moluo clan's techniques were terrifying—they even offered blood sacrifices to their own kin.
"Buzz!"
As the Moluo clan warriors and beasts died, endless blood light surged into Moluo Tianye's arm like a sea of rivers. His arm instantly burst with blood-red light, and his power erupted like a volcano, surging rapidly.
Absorbing endless blood power, Moluo Tianye's body, which had shrunk to fight Long Chen, rapidly grew into a giant spanning hundreds of miles. The staff in his hand roared and exploded, bursting with blood-red flames, igniting in an instant.
"Die, despicable human demon hunter Heavenly Strike!" Moluo Tianye roared, shattering the void with a single strike, tearing through space as it smashed toward Long Chen.
"Go to hell, you filthy demon clan third form of the Heaven-Opening Technique." Long Chen also shouted sharply, pouring all his strength into this strike. If this strike failed, he would die for his life.
