Chapter 5779: Let Me Try
The ominous spirit exuded boundless killing intent, an entity with a terrifying history that had fallen during the chaotic era but remained restless, roaming the heavens and the earth.
Later, it was nurtured by Bi Yingxue, receiving nourishment from the purple blood, gradually perfecting its spirit and awakening its consciousness. However, it remained subdued by Bi Yingxue's covenant. This time, it seized an opportunity to kill Bi Yingxue. The shackles on its soul were completely released, and a violent pressure filled the sky.
"Thank you for helping me kill that guy. In gratitude, I will kill you first."
The ominous spirit, shrouded in darkness, brandished a large blade and struck at Long Chen. The blade's aura shook the heavens and the earth, its might surpassing Bi Ta's strike by many times.
In this moment, Bi Ta and the others paled with fear. The ominous spirit had gone out of control, and it was bound to seek vengeance against the Purple Blood clan. When that happened, everyone would know the secret of their cultivation techniques.
*Boom!*
A punch covered in purple dragon scales struck the large blade, and what astonished everyone was that Long Chen had shattered the terrifying weapon with a single punch. Countless fragments pierced through the void, leaving numerous gaping holes.
The pupils of the ominous spirit contracted sharply. It hadn't expected this human to be so formidable.
"Undying and immortal? Let me try!"
Long Chen shattered the ominous spirit's weapon with a punch, and with his other hand, he targeted the spirit, summoning a fiery "十" character in his palm.
"Emperor's Blood Seal - Cross of Deicide."
Long Chen yelled, and as he struck, to everyone's shock, the ominous spirit, in the face of Long Chen's attack, didn't even have the courage to resist. Its body seemed to have frozen.
*Boom!*
Long Chen's palm struck the spirit, causing its body to explode, and the crimson powder tainted the sky.
*Hoo.*
After the crimson powder burst, it seemed like it wanted to merge into the void. However, suddenly, purple flames appeared on the crimson powder.
*Sizzle, sizzle...*
Strange noises emanated from the void, and it was as if the spirit's desperate wails could faintly be heard. Eventually, the flames disappeared, and the spirit's presence vanished with it.
This ancient spirit that had survived from the chaotic era met its end under Long Chen's Emperor's Blood Seal, its form and spirit extinguished.
*Buzz.*
After Long Chen killed the ominous spirit, he raised his hand and aimed it at Bi Yong, the one closest to him.
Bi Yong and his ominous spirit both felt a shiver in their souls when Long Chen's hand was pointed at them. Without thinking, they turned and fled.
*Hoo.*
Suddenly, Long Chen tightened his grip, and the space where Bi Yong was standing collapsed. Faintly visible, an invisible dragon claw appeared, capturing him and the ominous spirit.
"Don't..."
Bi Yong screamed in terror, struggling desperately. However, he could only watch as the dragon claw enveloped him. In an instant, darkness fell upon the world.
*Plop.*
A muffled sound came from within the dragon claw, and blood splattered through its fingers. Bi Yong's breath vanished instantly. This single claw not only crushed his physical body but also his spirit, along with the ominous spirit.
"My father was right. Less fancy moves, more practicality. Directly killing the opponent is the way to go. This improved Cloud Dragon Offering Claw, its destructive power has increased several times."
Long Chen spread his large hand, and the dragon claw vanished. At the location of Bi Yong's demise, a hundred-zhang whirlpool appeared.
This was Long Chen's first time using the enhanced version of the Cloud Dragon Offering Claw, taught to him by Long Zhan Tian. No seals, no mantras, no need to invoke the power of heaven and earth. With the power of dragon blood, he compressed the void. Within the dragon blood domain, with a single thought, he could create or destroy all things.
When the four of them rushed at Long Chen earlier, Bi Yingxue was the first to attack, with Bi Yong following closely behind. At the moment Long Chen killed the ominous spirit, Bi Yong had just stepped into Long Chen's dragon blood domain, although he was unaware of it. He had unknowingly entered the gates of death.
Long Chen consecutively killed Bi Yingxue, the ominous spirit, and Bi Yong in the blink of an eye. Everything happened too quickly for anyone to react.
Bi Ta and Bi Tian Xing were still charging toward Long Chen, but they were now horrified. They immediately stopped their approach and turned to run.
However, while they were fleeing, Long Chen did not pursue them. He held a long sword, and his body slightly bent.
*Ching.*
A dragon's roar resounded, and a purple sword qi crossed the battlefield, passing right over the heads of Luo Yanfeng and the others. They immediately felt suffocated, and the overwhelming pressure nearly crushed their bones.
*Splat, splat, splat...*
As the sword qi cut through the void, countless powerful demons hiding there were turned into a blood mist by Long Chen's sword.
Unbeknownst to most, the intense aura from this battle had attracted many demon powerhouses from the vicinity. Long Chen did not want the situation on this side to be exposed. He directly dealt with them to prevent any leaks.
With one world-shaking slash, Long Chen completely shattered the confidence of the Bi family disciples. Bi Ta and Bi Tian Xing had fled, and the other disciples, seeing the dire situation, also ran for their lives.
Originally, these Purple Blood clan disciples had not been allowed to use teleportation in battle. They were put in a life-or-death situation to force them to grow stronger. Now, as they fled, they exposed their backs to the Luo family disciples.
The Luo family disciples had been filled with rage and sorrow after experiencing this battle. Despite their apparent victory, they could find no joy in it. They just felt anger at the loss of so many of their own.
They had been close friends and siblings, their relationships harmonious. After enduring so many battles on the frontlines, their bonds had become as strong as steel. Now, they had to watch their comrades die at the hands of their own clan, and it filled them with an indescribable sense of resentment.
"Sister Yan, don't cry. Let's mourn the dead!"
Seeing Luo Yan sobbing bitterly, Luo Jiang choked up as he tried to console her.
"Let's go back to the Purple Blood clan and offer condolences to the Bi family as well."
Long Chen's face was dark as he waved his large hand and, accompanied by the Luo family disciples, he marched toward the Purple Blood clan.
