Chapter 5852: Liu Rujiao

"It's Liu Rujiao."

When that woman stepped onto the stage, the disciples of the Immortal Clan were extremely excited.

"Liu Rujiao, ranked third on the Emperor's List, with unpredictable strength. Rumor has it that she has awakened the Chaos Divine Technique. Today, we might get to witness it." Someone shouted in excitement.

"The top ten experts of the Emperor Clan keep their battles confidential. Today, we can finally broaden our horizons."

"Silly human race, let's see how arrogant he can be this time. Let's see if his mouth will still be so tough in a while."

As Liu Rujiao appeared, the entire arena erupted. All eyes were focused on her, creating a tense atmosphere that swept through the entire venue.

However, Liu Ruyan and Chu Yao were no longer nervous at this point. They understood Long Chen's character; he wasn't someone fond of boasting.

"Liu Rujiao, I've come to learn from you!"

Liu Rujiao took the stage, unexpectedly giving Long Chen a slight salute. Then, she prepared to form hand seals. At this moment, her face was serious, treating Long Chen as a formidable opponent.

Liu Rujiao's actions made Long Chen feel a bit embarrassed. After all, she had shown respect, and Long Chen couldn't appear too rude. He clasped his fists.

"Master Xihua said I'm not your match, but I don't accept it. I, too, ascended from the mortal realm, experiencing endless life-and-death battles to reach my current position. In our fight, I hope you'll use your full strength. Even if you accidentally kill me, it's fine, because I will also strive to achieve my goal of killing you. Only then can I unleash my full strength." Liu Rujiao looked at Long Chen and said coldly.

From the moment Liu Rujiao stepped onto the stage, Long Chen sensed the bloody aura emanating from her. Clearly, Liu Rujiao was different from Liu Qingyu; she was a true powerhouse.

True powerhouses were not adept at the martial arts tournament style. They aimed for their opponent's life as soon as they made a move. If it stopped short, they couldn't unleash their true strength. So, Liu Rujiao made it clear from the beginning.

"In that case, I won't be polite." Long Chen slightly bent his knees, arched his back, and the Purple Dragon Battle Body appeared again, emitting a sharp aura.

"I have no regrets, but I seek a full-force battle."

Liu Rujiao coldly shouted, thirteen dragon veins danced, and a phenomenon unfolded behind her, countless willow branches fluttered, obscuring the sky.

As the willow branches danced, the imperial qi poured down like a waterfall. Seeing this scene, the experts of the Emperor Clan smiled.

Those who were familiar with Liu Rujiao knew that she would rely on absolute defense to confront Long Chen.

This was Liu Rujiao's strongest point. When she entered absolute defense, even the number one ranked Liu Minghao could hardly deal with her. He could only endure her attacks, relying on his thicker origin power to defeat her.

In terms of attack power alone, Liu Rujiao could at most be ranked fifth. However, in terms of defensive power, she was second only to Liu Minghao.

Liu Minghao defeated Liu Rujiao because his boundless origin power was more profound than hers, allowing him to overpower her.

Initially, they were worried that Liu Rujiao, who was determined to win, would choose to attack. Now, seeing her adopt a defensive posture, they doubted Long Chen's ability to defeat her before exhausting her origin power.

"When you adopt a defensive posture, you've already lost because you don't have the certainty of victory, which is why you take this stance." Long Chen calmly said.

Who was Long Chen? From her aura fluctuations, he could deduce her tactics.

"This is my strongest defensive posture. However, my ultimate moves are endless. Once you fall into the trap, you'll be beyond redemption. Don't blame me for not warning you." Liu Rujiao remained unmoved, coldly saying.

Long Chen nodded, "Since you put it that way, let's get down to business!"

*Buzz*

Long Chen moved like a bolt of lightning, rushing towards Liu Rujiao.

*Sizzling sounds...*

Just as Long Chen's body moved, the willow branches turned into sharp swords, fiercely stabbing towards Long Chen. The sharp willow branches pierced through the thick arena directly.

This indiscriminate attack was practically impenetrable, leaving no room to dodge or evade. Like countless silk threads, it blocked all of Long Chen's paths forward.

Moreover, this attack instantly covered the entire arena. The overwhelming force made people despair.

"Cloud Dragon Claw."

Long Chen shouted, and a claw struck out, shattering the endless willow branches. A massive passage was formed, and Long Chen, following that path, instantly reached Liu Rujiao.

However, seeing Long Chen approaching, Liu Rujiao was not at all flustered. With a cold snort, her figure flickered, and eight figures separated from her main body, each rushing towards one of the eight corners of the arena.

"This move is useless against me."

Long Chen had already reached Liu Rujiao, and with a swipe of his hand, he greeted her face with a claw. However, just as Long Chen struck, eight attacks from Liu Rujiao simultaneously shot towards Long Chen from the corners of the arena.

"Nine figures, all of them are my true self. Even if you kill the most, you can only destroy one-ninth of my strength. Meanwhile, you have to face the simultaneous attacks of the other eight true selves." Liu Rujiao coldly shouted, while forming hand seals. Willow branches crossed in front of her, forming a protective shield.

Liu Rujiao was extremely cautious. Even in this situation, she chose the most conservative approach, unwilling to discard a single body.

"Imperial Blood Seal."

With Long Chen's cold shout, the shield formed by the willow branches was pierced by a single palm. Before this strike, Liu Rujiao's defense seemed as fragile as paper.

*Boom*

However, just at this moment, Liu Rujiao's eight attacks had already reached Long Chen's back.

But Long Chen completely ignored them, and with a palm, he struck Liu Rujiao's face in front of him.

*Smack*

However, Liu Rujiao's head was not shattered. When Long Chen's palm struck her face, white flames surged, and Liu Rujiao was instantly frozen.

"Ice Flame of the Frost?"

Seeing this scene, Master Xihua was shocked, recognizing the origin of these flames.

Although Long Chen had struck Liu Rujiao first, her other attacks had already arrived.

Eight divine lights formed by Emperor's flames rushed towards Long Chen, but just as they were about to hit him, all the divine flames suddenly avoided Long Chen and shot towards the side.

"What's happening?" Someone exclaimed.

"I understand. Long Chen didn't destroy Liu Rujiao's body because he guessed that her attacks wouldn't target him." Someone guessed the reason.

"Sorry."

When Long Chen avoided the domineering attacks, a loud explosion echoed. Liu Rujiao, who

 had been frozen, instantly turned into ice shards.

At the moment when Liu Rujiao turned into ice shards, the other true bodies also trembled, and Long Chen, at this moment, had already rushed towards the nearest figure.

"Bad, Liu Rujiao's move has been broken." Someone shouted.

*Buzz*

However, Long Chen missed, and Liu Rujiao immediately retracted all her bodies, merging them back into one. At the same time, the original location of the clone left behind a deep pit. Just as Long Chen pounced there, the pit suddenly exploded, and endless willow branches shot out from the ground, instantly engulfing Long Chen.

"Trap?"

Long Chen was shocked. Liu Rujiao was quite skilled; this strike came too suddenly, catching even him off guard.

Just as the willow branches wrapped around Long Chen, in the sky, billions of branches descended, forming a gigantic cocoon with a radius of tens of thousands of miles. This move was also used by Huai Yushan. It was one of the Immortal Clan's most powerful techniques. Once trapped, it would turn into a battle of attrition.

"It's over!"

Liu Rujiao snorted coldly, forming hand seals. The endless branches rapidly tightened, and the thirteen dragon veins acted like a seal, enveloping the gigantic cocoon. Not only that, even the Emperor Clan's power was unreservedly infused into it.

"Surrender, or you'll be strangled alive. Liu Rujiao loudly shouted. She was extremely confident in this move; she had already won.

"Taiyin and Yang, who is weak and who is strong? Yin cannot give birth alone, and yang cannot grow alone. When yin and yang are complete, all things return home."

Just at this moment, Long Chen's voice came from within the cocoon, like the murmurs of a god, resonating throughout the arena. Following that, everyone felt a terrifying scorching aura, and countless flame runes appeared in the sky, converging towards the cocoon.

*Crack*

At this moment, a crisp sound rang out, and the cocoon rapidly expanded before the eyes of countless shocked onlookers.

*Boom*

In the horrified gazes of everyone, the cocoon burst open.
