Chapter 696 - Conspiracy

However, in the time it took for an incense stick to burn, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of Sun Pill City. .
"Long Chen, are you alright?"
The people who came were actually Fang Mingyuan and Chai Gaoyang. The two of them had brought more than a dozen Sea Cleaving stage experts with them as they came to meet him.
“Haha, thanks to your blessings, I’ve only been slightly injured. I’m fine. To be able to see the two of you, it seems that everything has gone smoothly!” Long Chen said with a smile.
Huo Mingyuan said, "It’s extremely smooth. That old fellow Huo Changsheng has eaten too much easy food. He thinks that the Huo Family is still the same Huo Family.
We had long since secretly contacted some sect experts and bribed the insiders of the Huo Family to work together to flatten the Huo Family. There were more than three thousand people in the Huo Family, yet none of them escaped.
Long Chen frowned slightly when he heard that the Huo Family had been exterminated. Although the Huo Family didn’t have many good people, some women and children had also died inside. This made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Right, have you seen Huo Wu Fang?" Fang Mingyuan said.
“They ran away. After I killed a few of the Skywalkers, they didn’t have any intention of fighting me, so I couldn’t catch up. I was worried about the situation here, so I came back.” Long Chen shook his head.
Long Chen didn’t want to reveal too much about Huo Wu Fang. Besides, Long Chen didn’t know why, but he felt very uncomfortable. Perhaps it was because the Huo Family was exterminated, but his mood unexpectedly fluctuated.
“It’s nothing to get rid of him, we just need to find someone to kill him. Without the support of the Huo family, he’s just a dog!”
He walked up to Long Chen and patted him on the shoulder. “Long San, you’ve done well. It’s all thanks to you this time!”
"Senior is being too courteous, actually this time …"
Puff.
As Long Chen was speaking, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. A black spike pierced into Long Chen’s chest. In that instant, space trembled violently. Long Chen felt his surroundings change as he appeared in a desert.
Chai Gao Yang, who was previously amiable, now had a cold expression on his face. He backed away from Fang Mingyuan, staring fixedly at Long Chen.
The other Sea Cleaving stage experts drew their weapons and encircled Long Chen.
Long Chen lowered his head to look at the spike on his chest. It had been shot out using an arrow from his sleeve. Even though he hadn’t seen it clearly, based on this angle, it had to be sent out by Fang Mingyuan.
There was a deadly poison on the sleeve arrow. It was a type of mixed poison, and it was almost impossible to cure. Because the poison was released too quickly, before they could figure out which deadly poison it was, the person was already dead.
Long Chen slowly raised his head to look at Fang Mingyuan and sighed, "Can you tell me why?"
A hint of shame appeared in Fang Mingyuan’s eyes as he sighed: “Long Chen, don’t blame us for being merciless. We did this to allow the clan to continue passing down the legacy.”
"Are you doing this for the earth fire on me?" Long Chen looked at the stars in the sky and an indescribable emotion appeared in his eyes.
“That’s right. Earth Fire is a Natural Oddity. There is no pill cultivator that doesn’t want to obtain it. Last time, in the Pill Emperor Competition, when you were in such danger, you didn’t even use Earth Fire.”
I guess your Earth Fire hasn’t fully matured yet and you are still unable to communicate with it or use it to forge pills.
So, after considering it over and over again, we still decided to take your Earth Fire, because after a period of time, the Earth Fire will grow stronger and it will not be easy to tame. For us, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. " Huo Mingyuan said.
Long Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly, "As expected, old ginger is spicier. I was too innocent and actually fell into your trap. I would like to ask, does Fang Chang and Chai Lie know about this?"
Fang Mingyuan shook his head. “They don’t know. Otherwise, our plan won’t work.”
Long Chen nodded. "Perhaps this is very gratifying news for me. If they betray me, I will be very sad."
"Long Chen, we had to go through with it as well." Fang Mingyuan said with a complicated look in his eyes.
"You have no other choice? Hehe, don’t find excuses for yourself. This kind of lie that can’t even fool a child, don’t even talk about it.
All my life, I, Long Chen, have only acted on my intuition, especially when interacting with others. My intuition has never fooled me.
This time, I didn’t do things based on my intuition. I used my deductions because I believed that those who can educate such characters as Fang Chang and Chai Fen must also be upright people.
In the end, I was wrong, very wrong, you know? I, Long Chen, have experienced countless life and death battles.
I am not afraid of anything, what I am most afraid of is betrayal, I can accept anything, I can’t accept betrayal, I am asking you now, do you still want to steal my Earth Fire? "
Long Chen’s voice was very low. Although he tried his best to remain calm, his voice was trembling slightly. This showed that he was currently in a very complicated state of mind.
“Long San, there’s no point in talking about this now. You will die today without a doubt. Considering the time you helped us, you can kill yourself. Otherwise, you’ll die without a complete corpse!” Chai Gao Yang said coldly.
Puff.
Long Chen suddenly extended his hand and pulled out the steel spike from his chest. There were countless barbed hooks on it, and dragon’s flesh was still hanging from it. Those flesh and blood were already beginning to rot away. The poison was truly frightening.
"Clang!"
Long Chen threw the steel spike on the ground and slowly said, "Actually, there are a few things that you don’t know.
The first thing was that when the people from the Huo family rushed into the Fang family and no one came out to support them, it was already somewhat illogical.
At that time, I was suspicious, but I told myself that maybe the strong warriors of the Fang family were secretly gathering. Maybe they had other plans.
So I led the Skywalkers away, but as soon as I left, you guys appeared. I know all this.
They are my brothers, and I do not believe that they will betray me.
If I guessed correctly, right at this moment, your people had already split into two groups. When the main force was ambushed, you also ambushed the Huo Family.
"This is also why only Skywalker attacked me, and not a Sea Cleaving Realm expert. By that time, all the experts from the Huo Family had already retreated, am I right?"
Fang Mingyuan was silent for a moment before nodding his head, "You’re right. I calculated it right. You would care about those innocent lives and lure them away, because Long Chen is Long Chen. It’s rumored that you don’t kill innocents wantonly, and you don’t like to implicate others.
I made the right bet. I only have two Sea Cleaving stage experts left in the Fang Clan. Once you lure them away, they can instantly wipe out the enemies.
We have brought a large number of elite troops from two families, as well as some sects that have just entered our two families. They have also sent their experts and after changing their appearances, they have joined the battle.
The reason why the Huo Family was exterminated so quickly was because they put in a lot of effort. It took less than two hours before the entire Huo Family was exterminated.
Based on my calculations, with your battle prowess, even if you cannot defeat those people, you can still persist for a long time after fighting them and escaping.
“Merely, never would I have expected that your battle power was even more frightening than what we imagined. You actually managed to kill all of them and escape.” Fang Mingyuan couldn’t help but sigh. Long Chen’s battle prowess was truly terrifying.
One man against more than a dozen Skywalkers, and he had actually killed his opponent to the point that he had abandoned his armor and fled for his life. It was truly unimaginable. The Sea Cleaving stage cultivators present were not only shocked, but also terrified.
"I was just saying the first thing. Now let me say the second thing. The second thing is, I lied before.
"Those evil experts did not run away. They died because they did not have the power to escape." Long Chen said faintly.
"What?"
Fang Mingyuan and the others were shocked. They were all dead? How was this possible? With so many Skywalkers, even if they couldn’t kill Long Chen, they could still escape. How could they all be killed?
“The third thing is that Huo Wu Fang has fused with a special skeleton. He’s already a Tier 2 Skywalker.” Long Chen continued.
"Nonsense, how is that possible? If he became a Tier 2 Skywalker, how could you still be alive?" Chai Gao Yang said angrily.
A Tier 2 Skywalker was an extremely terrifying existence. The combat prowess of a Tier 2 Skywalker was comparable to that of an ordinary expert at the late stage of the sea realm.
“I’m alive, so of course he’s dead!” Long Chen said.
“Nonsense, that’s impossible!” Everyone was shocked.
Long Chen shrugged his shoulders and said faintly, "It’s up to you whether you believe me or not. Now, if I say the fourth thing, it will also be the last.
I have to say my goodbyes to all of you. In another world, you should continue to fight Huo Changsheng.
Fang Mingyuan and the others were shocked. The more they listened to Long Chen’s words, the more they felt that something was off. At the same time, a bad feeling rose in their hearts.
"He… "His wounds …"
Suddenly, someone pointed at Long Chen’s chest in shock. It was unknown when, but his chest had already completely recovered without a trace of injury.
It turned out that Long Chen had taken this opportunity to slowly circulate the Chaotic Pearl. Inexhaustible life force entered Long Chen’s body and removed the poison from his body.
However, this poison was extremely terrifying. The Long Chen had nearly exhausted the vitality of all the plants in the Primal Chaos Dimension in order to barely heal his injuries. However, Long Chen’s goal had already been achieved.
“Let’s kill him together!” Fang Mingyuan roared in anger. Flames erupted from his entire body, and a terrifyingly high temperature exploded. An enormous fire blade appeared in his hand, and he was the first to charge towards Long Chen.
His first move was to go all out. He had an inexplicable fear of Long Chen. Even as a late stage Sea Cleaving expert, he didn’t dare to be the slightest bit careless.
"Boom!"
An explosive sound rang out as a huge divine ring appeared behind Long Chen’s back. A terrifying pressure pressed down in all directions. With a wave of his hand, a cold light descended.
"Split the Heavens!"
"Puff puff puff …"
A long blade appeared in Long Chen’s hand. It was not a blood-colored long blade, but a long blade that he had taken from among the evil experts.
The blade descended, and before any of the eight Sea Cleaving experts could react, they were sliced to smithereens by the terrifying blade shadows.
Fang Mingyuan and the others were shocked. They finally believed Long Chen’s words, but it was too late. With a slash of Long Chen’s saber, he had risen into the air, his hands gripping his saber.
"Sky-Opening Second Move!"
Chapter 697 - Return

Long Chen gave a low shout as he pointed the long saber in his hand at the sky. An enormous shadow of the blade shot straight into the clouds, tearing the space apart. .
A peerlessly powerful aura locked down Fang Mingyuan and the others, causing everyone’s expressions to turn pale. They had never seen such a terrifying move before.
Previously, Long Chen had executed the first stance of the Sky-Opening, but now, with the second stance emanating its power, it had shattered all the clouds in the area and shaken all the stars in the sky.
This was the second time Long Chen had used the second move of the Sky-Opening, but now, three stars floated in Long Chen’s eyes, and the long blade in his hand mercilessly chopped down.
"Nine Revolutions Fireball Shield!"
Fang Mingyuan and Chai Gao Yang shouted at the same time, condensing the power of the Pill Fire in their bodies into a shield of fire in front of them.
The fire escape was not big, only a few meters in radius. In order to pursue the strongest defense, the two of them gave up the lives of the others. Their fire shields overlapped in front of their bodies.
"Boom!"
An enormous saber shadow mercilessly slashed down like the destruction of the world by a heavenly blade. The entire world was split into two halves. In front of Long Chen, an endless ravine appeared.
"Phew!"
Long Chen spat out a mouthful of impure air. This attack was fierce and unparalleled, and had actually drained all of his spirit essence in an instant.
He discovered that the Sky-Opening Second Style was a unparalel. No matter how much spirit essence one had, it could be used up in an instant.
However, the more spirit energy he expended, the more powerful it would become. Long Chen couldn’t see the end of it, nor the bottom of the ravine. His heart was filled with shock.
The crowd in front of him had already disappeared. Long Chen saw with his own eyes that even though the Sea Cleaving stage experts were doing their utmost to resist, the moment they made contact with the saber shadows, they were all crushed into fine powder.
Pu pu
Suddenly, two miserable figures drilled out from the soil. As soon as the two people crawled out, blood immediately spurted out from their mouths.
Those two people were no other than Fang Mingyuan and Chai Gao Yang, who had gathered the flame energy from their entire bodies into their strongest defenses.
Although the two of them survived, they paid a terrible price. They didn’t even look human anymore and were like a pile of rotten meat. The meridians in their bodies were completely destroyed, and they were only breathing more fiercely than the dead.
"Save … Save me, I don’t want to. “Die!” Chai Gao Yang looked at Long Chen and stretched out his arm, begging.
“My apologies, but obviously I can’t. I’ve said that in this world, I can accept anything except betrayal!” Long Chen shook his head.
"Crack!"
Long Chen had just finished speaking when the long blade in his hand suddenly exploded, startling Long Chen.
So it turned out that his continuous use of the Sky Splitting Battle Skill had caused him to use too much strength. This magical weapon was actually unable to withstand the wild strength and ended up exploding into pieces.
"Long Chen, look at this …" Burning… Oh, please, let me. "One horse…" At this moment, Chai Gao Yang no longer had the demeanor of an expert. He was just an ordinary old man who valued his life. He did not want to die.
"Why bother? We shouldn’t have faced each other like this, because both Fang Chang and Zhuyan, you were once my respected elders, and I trusted you so much.
And what did you do? You have betrayed not only me, but your children, and your own conscience.
"The greed in your hearts has lost your eyes. You actually killed your own people. All of you have brought this upon yourselves, and no one is involved!" Long Chen sighed.
"I beg of you …" "Hmm …"
Chai Gao Yang still wanted to plead for mercy, but the fire of his life could not burn for such a long period of time.
If their bodies were killed, they could still use their soul force to let their souls escape. In the future, they could find a suitable body to possess, just like the Huo Family’s old man in the Chaos Territory.
However, they had used all of their strength to support the fire shield and channeled all of their soul force into it. This time, not only had Long Chen shattered their fire escape, he had also shattered their souls.
"Cough cough, why do you need to go through so much trouble?" Fang Mingyuan looked at Chai Gao Yang, who had just died, and a self-deprecating look appeared on his face.
His power was slightly higher than Chai Gao Yang’s, but only by a sliver. At this point, he was at the end of his tether.
Long Chen didn’t say anything. He just looked at him quietly. In this situation, there was nothing left to say. No matter what he said, it would all be useless.
“Long Chen, I know I don’t have the qualifications to beg you, but I still want to ask you. This is all Chai Gao Yang and I’s idea, neither Captain Fang nor Flame knows about it, so I hope you don’t vent your anger on them.” Fang Mingyuan suddenly felt slightly excited. This was the last glimmer of light.
Long Chen said, "Rest assured, I, Long Chen, have clearly distinguished myself by my kindness. They did not betray me, so I will definitely not betray them."
Originally, we shouldn’t be facing each other like this, but after today, I won’t be able to face the two of them. I’ll recover my identity as Long Chen.
When Fang Mingyuan heard Long Chen’s words, he felt slightly comforted. If Long Chen didn’t go find trouble with the Fang family, then the Fang family would be safe.
However, when Fang Mingyuan heard the following words, he felt a wave of regret. All of this was caused by him, and it was only because they had been blinded by greed.
If not for the fact that the Fang family had an ally with unlimited potential like Long Chen, how wonderful would that be? Unfortunately, nothing could be saved.
"How … "Thank …"
After Fang Mingyuan said those two words, he closed his eyes and another generation of powerful experts perished.
Long Chen sighed. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He rarely trusted anyone, but those he trusted would never suspect anything. The first time he had been betrayed was a heart-piercing pain.
Reaching out, he dug a large hole and buried Fang Mingyuan and Chai Gao Yang’s bodies. Long Chen didn’t even touch their belongings, and just buried them along.
Long Chen only left behind one of Chai Gao Yang’s identity tokens before turning around to leave, leaving behind a chaotic battlefield.
Looking down from the sky, it seemed as if a long wound had been cut open on the ground. A cool breeze blew past, causing the land to appear desolate and desolate.
Long Chen sped along. When Fang Mingyuan had activated the teleportation array, it had traveled several tens of thousands of miles. He reckoned that they were looking for a quiet place to kill him.
Long Chen rushed all the way to Sun Pill City. Taking advantage of the night, he changed his appearance. Holding Chai Lie token in his hand, he entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda warehouse and headed straight to the place where the beast fire was placed.
The guards here had always recognized each other, so Long Chen easily entered the warehouse.
After entering the warehouse, Long Chen directly released Little Flame, who bluntly devoured hundreds of beasts’ flames.
After Little Fire was full, Long Chen left the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and secretly went to take a look.
After discovering that the entire Sun Pill City was in chaos, that the Huo Family had been annihilated and that the Fang Family’s had been attacked, everyone felt insecure. Some of them went into hiding, while others fled.
Long Chen changed into ordinary clothes and dressed as an ordinary cultivator. He sized up the Fang Residence from afar and found that Fang Chang and Chai Lie were waiting anxiously in the courtyard.
Long Chen sighed, turned around and left, and his figure disappeared into the night before the dawn …
The battle between the Huo Family and the Fang and Chai Clans had shaken the entire Sun Pill City. The destruction of the Huo Family astonished countless people to the point where their mouths gaped wide open.
The Fang family and the Chai family were also heavily injured because the Fang family’s patriarch, the Chai family’s patriarch, and the Fang family’s legendary Long San had also disappeared.
The members of the Fang and Chai Clans increased the range of their search. Finally, half a month later, they found a terrifying battlefield. In the end, they found the corpses of the two Patriarchs.
At the same time, they also discovered Long San’s clothes on a fragmented body. Judging from his clothing, the corpse had to be his.
People inferred that Long San’s group had met an unprecedented opponent, but had all perished together. This was because on the battlefield, there were pieces of flesh and bones everywhere. It was impossible to tell how many people there were at that time.
Fang Chang and Chai Lie cried on the spot. On this day, not only had they lost their family’s pillar, but they had also lost a good brother.
They brought the small half of Long San’s body back to the Fang family and buried it in their ancestral tomb.
When they heard that the genius Long San had fallen, the entire world of alchemy sighed. He had just become the champion of the Pill Emperor Tournament and was about to shine for a hundred lifetimes, yet he had actually fallen like this.
The Pill Valley also sent people to take a look at the state of Sun Pill, but they only took a glance before leaving.
Before he left, he only said one thing: The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda’s Beast Flames had been stolen, so the Fang and Chai families would be responsible for this loss. The Huo Family disappeared, and as long as the Pill Tower’s sales didn’t decline, they wouldn’t pursue this matter.
In reality, to the Pill Valley, Pill Tower was just a place in the mortal world. They didn’t care who guarded this place, they only cared that they could look after it and earn a lot of money.
This was also the reason why the three families dared to brazenly fight with each other. Originally, the Huo Family was cultivating their strength, and when the time was right, they would annex the other two families.
However, this plan had been completely destroyed by Long Chen. In the end, not only did his strength not increase, but it had been reduced by the two families.
Now that the Pill Tower had become the domain of the Fang and Chai families, however, Fang Chang and Chai Lie did not have a single trace of happiness. Instead, they felt an endless pressure.
For a time, all the burdens were placed on the two of them. Moreover, they had no choice but to shoulder this heavy burden because the result was too heavy and they had no choice but to take over.
However, it was a good thing that with the reputation of the Pill Valley, he was not afraid of other people provoking him, nor was he afraid of others spying on him. This was because if someone dared to target Pill Tower, it was equivalent to challenging the Pill Valley.
Provoke the Pill Valley? In this world, there really weren’t many forces that dared to act this crazily. Thus, once the Huo Family disappeared, they would be completely safe.
Long Chen, who single-handedly created this chaotic scene, had long since stepped onto the teleportation formation and returned to the prefecture, heading straight for the Xuantian branch.
When Long Chen saw the familiar mountain gate, he suddenly felt like a prodigal son returning home. This was because here, there was his lover, his brothers, and the existence he had to protect.
"Brothers, I, Long Chen, have returned!" Long Chen suddenly roared, shaking the vast sky.
Chapter 698 - Xuantian Sect
Mobile Read
With Long Chen’s cry, all the disciples of the Xuantian Branch were alarmed. .
"Senior brother Long Chen!"
"You … “He’s actually still alive!”
Those disciples all knew who Long Chen was. It seemed that everyone in the Xuantian department knew who Long Chen was.
However, everyone knew that Long Chen had met with countless evil experts in the Anarchic Lands and had also fallen. Now that Long Chen was standing right in front of them, no one dared to believe him.
“How fresh it is! If I were to die, wouldn’t you all have seen a ghost?” Long Chen scolded.
However, there was something strange about Long Chen’s words. His voice could definitely spread throughout the whole branch. However, no Shui Wuhen appeared. Meng Qi, Tang Wan’er, and the soldiers of the Dragonblood Army also didn’t appear.
"Long Chen, you … "you are really alive!"
The person who came was Elder Tu Fang. After the First Monastery was attacked, there were too many things that happened, so the reconstruction of the First Monastery was temporarily put on hold. Elder Tu Fang stayed in the Xuantian Monastery and helped with some chores.
The news of Long Chen’s death had spread throughout the Xuantian Division. Apart from Shui Wuhen and the members of the Dragon Blood Army, everyone had thought that Long Chen had truly fallen. Now that Long Chen had returned, even Tu Fang was somewhat teary.
This made Long Chen very touched. No matter if it was Tu Fang or Ling Yunzi, both of them treated him as a relative. Especially after experiencing Fang Mingyuan and Chai Gao Yang’s betrayal, this emotion was exceptionally touching.
“Elder Tu Fang, I’m sorry, I came back late.” Long Chen said somewhat guiltily.
“It’s good that you’re back. It’s good that you’re back.” Tu Fang quickly wiped the corner of his eyes and smiled. “Sigh, I’m old, but I’m prone to getting excited.”
Long Chen was about to speak when he suddenly heard a cold shout, “Who’s making such a ruckus here to disrupt the division’s order?”
Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance stood in midair. The wings on his back fluttered as he looked down at Long Chen and the others.
"We pay our respects to the sect master!"
The moment the middle-aged man appeared, the surrounding disciples immediately bowed.
"Honorable Sect Master, this is …" The man was quickly introduced.
“Shut up. I don’t care who he is. Men, take him down!” The middle-aged man shouted coldly.
As the man coldly shouted, more than ten experts immediately rushed out, wanting to catch Long Chen. Those people were all Xiantian experts, all of them at the elder level, but Long Chen didn’t recognize any of them.
"Wait, who are you?" Long Chen coldly said. He felt that something was off. Why did everything become so unfamiliar after he returned to the Xuantian Branch?
"Long Chen, this is our new sect head," Tu Fang hastily reminded in a low voice.
“Where’s Shui Wuhen?” Long Chen asked.
"Shui Wuhen she …"
“Shut up, you bold bastard! How dare you pretend to be my branch disciple. I think you’re tired of living. Someone take him down!” The middle-aged man interrupted Tu Fang’s words and coldly shouted.
At this moment, the dozen or so Xiantian experts charged toward Long Chen without a word. A sneer appeared on their faces, but just as their palms were about to touch Long Chen.
"Scram!"
With a loud shout, it was as if thunder struck from a clear sky. A terrifying aura erupted, and those ten or so individuals were struck head-on by that aura. All of them spat out a mouthful of blood, and were sent flying backwards.
"Xiantian! Senior brother Long Chen has also stepped into the Xiantian realm!" A disciple exclaimed.
This was because the aura that Long Chen was emitting right now was that of a Greater Heaven stage cultivator. However, Long Chen’s aura was even more violent and valiant. Just his aura alone was enough to make those people faint.
Tu Fang stood behind Long Chen. Seeing that Long Chen had grown to such a terrifying level, he couldn’t help but feel ecstatic.
"How dare you, you lunatic! How dare you hurt someone in front of me, suppress me!"
The middle-aged man extended his hand, and a palm image over a hundred feet in length came slamming down onto Long Chen. This was the attack of a powerful Sea Cleaving cultivator.
As that palm attack was unleashed, space trembled. Those disciples with lower cultivations felt as if they were being pressed down by a mountain. Their faces turned as pale as paper and they almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
Long Chen’s expression turned cold. This bastard was definitely doing this on purpose. He coldly snorted and threw out a punch.
"Bang!"
An explosive sound rang out. To the astonishment of everyone, the gigantic palm image was shattered by Long Chen’s fist.
The middle-aged man couldn’t help but be shocked. He didn’t think that Long Chen would have such terrifying battle prowess. Suddenly, his vision blurred and Long Chen’s figure disappeared.
Next, a figure appeared in front of him. Before he could even react, a palm with the sound of wind and thunder viciously slapped his face.
"F * ck off!"
"Pa!"
A loud explosion resounded for thousands of miles in every direction. Under everyone’s panic-stricken gazes, the middle-aged man was sent flying by Long Chen’s palm and smashed into the ground like a meteor.
"Boom!"
The middle-aged man caused a huge crater in the ground. For a moment, everyone was stupefied. That was the new head, the mighty Sea Cleaving stage cultivator, he had actually been slapped to the ground by Long Chen.
"Bastard…"
The middle-aged man crawled up from the ground and roared angrily. However, just as he roared out, Long Chen sent a second slap towards him.
This strike was even more powerful than last time, and it broke his jaw. However, he was not sent flying because a large hand had grabbed his neck, as if it were holding a dead dog.
“How dare a mere initial sea cleaving martial artist act so haughtily before me? I truly admire your courage. I’m puzzled. You’re so awesome. How did you manage to survive until now?” Long Chen looked at the guy with the badly mutilated chin and said with admiration.
Seeing Long Chen holding the newly appointed Sect Leader’s hand, everyone’s mouth was wide open to the extreme. From their mouths, one could almost see their stomachs.
Isn’t this too exaggerated? As soon as he returned, he beat up the newly appointed headmaster. He truly deserved to be called the strongest monster in the history of the Xuantian Branch.
“What’s your name?” Long Chen said coldly.
“How dare you, do you know what you’re doing …” “Ahhh!”
The middle-aged man wanted to threaten Long Chen, but when Long Chen kicked his crotch, two round objects immediately fell from his pants onto the ground. All of the male creatures present felt their scalps go numb as they tightly clamped their crotch.
“I don’t like to talk nonsense. Let me ask you, what’s your name?” Long Chen continued to ask as if he had done something trivial.
The middle-aged man’s face had contorted in pain. Long Chen had instantly made him lose his footing. This was the first time he had ever experienced such pain.
At the same time, he saw the threat of death in Long Chen’s cold eyes. This caused him to shiver and his entire person seemed to be much more clear-headed. He knew that if he angered Long Chen, he would undoubtedly die.
"Zhou … "Chuji!" The man could only tremble in fear.
“You are a member of the Zhou family?” Long Chen’s eyes narrowed as he suddenly thought of something.
"En!" The middle-aged man nodded.
Long Chen wanted to continue asking him, but seeing that he was in so much pain that his forehead was constantly dripping with sweat, it was difficult for him to continue speaking.
“Senior Tu Fang, what’s going on?” Long Chen asked the Tu Fang instead.
Through the map, Long Chen found out that Shui Wuhen had brought all the elite disciples of the Xuantian Monastery to the Xuantian Sect seven days ago.
This was a grand meeting of the Xuantian Sect, and it was also an experiential learning. All of the most outstanding disciples of the XuanTian Branch were taken away.
Therefore, the current Xuantian Division was merely a group of inferior disciples. This was also the reason why Long Chen did not see everyone.
With Shui Wuhen gone, the XuantianMonastery would not have a single Sea Cleaving Realm expert to guard it. That was why their superior had sent a temporary head of the department.
In the end, when the Sect Leader arrived, he could be said to have a high authority. He disliked everyone and often made things difficult for everyone.
Everyone knew that when the Zhou family fought with the Shui family, they suffered greatly. They were here to vent their anger, to pick at the bones.
As a result, the entire branch now looked lifeless. Everyone was looking forward to the end of the Xuantian branch’s grand event. Now that Shui Wuhen had returned, this fellow could f * * k off.
The people here all hated this arrogant fellow. Just now, when Long Chen had hit him, everyone had almost applauded.
Hearing this, Long Chen looked at the middle-aged man in his hand and sneered, “No wonder you dare to target me like this. Not bad, you’re quite bold. With your guts, I’ll spare your life!”
Long Chen could whip him, but he couldn’t kill him. After all, he was a Sea Cleaving expert, and he also had the status of a deputy head. Killing him would be troublesome.
Of course, this was on the premise that he didn’t offend Long Chen. If he really did touch Long Chen’s reverse scale, then even if God gave him a backing, it wouldn’t be enough to save his life.
"Pa!"
Long Chen pushed out his hand and the middle-aged man was immediately sent flying backward in a sorry state. He rolled on the ground far away before finally stopping.
"Long Chen!"
After the middle-aged man broke free from Long Chen’s grasp, his aura immediately erupted. He was shocked and angry at the same time. He couldn’t even clench his teeth because his jaw was broken and he couldn’t even clench his teeth.
Earlier, he had been restrained because of his weak point, but now he was safe. Previously, he had been careless and had been restrained by Long Chen. Now, he wouldn’t give Long Chen a second chance.
"Why do you still want to fight? "I welcome you to attack me at any time, but I have one thing to remind you of, if you attack me, then I will … kill … you!" Long Chen said coldly.
Finished speaking, Long Chen didn’t even spare a glance at the middle-aged man as he entered the Mysterious Heaven Branch with Tu Fang. Long Chen needed to borrow the transmission array to go to the Xuantian Sect.
The middle-aged man’s face darkened. He wanted to attack several times, but his intuition told him that if he did that, he would lose his life.
But if he didn’t make a move, where would he put his face? In front of so many people, how could he face the crowd and manage the entire branch academy in the future?
While he was in endless confusion, Long Chen had already entered the Xuantian Branch. In the end, that middle-aged man didn’t dare to make a move.
Actually, if he were to make a move, Long Chen would not take his life. He would only want half of his life. However, the life Long Chen left behind for others would usually not be very comfortable. Thus, his decision was the correct one.
He didn’t look for Long Chen, but instead, Long Chen came looking for him. “Immediately get me an identity token!”
In less than an incense’s time, Long Chen had obtained a brand-new identity token. With this token, he would be able to enter the Xuan Dao Sect.

The scene in front of him changed. The Long Chen appeared on top of an extremely ancient transmission array. The transmission array was actually ten miles in circumference. It was extremely vast. .
The transfer array was surrounded by four towering pillars that pierced the clouds. On the pillars were countless flashing symbols. The majestic aura they exuded made one’s heart tremble.
It was a teleportation formation constructed on the peak of a tall mountain. Ancient structures were everywhere, and they were extremely old.
"Who is it?"
Long Chen didn’t even have the time to take a look at the surrounding scenery. Suddenly, he heard a cold rebuke, and a dozen disciples in long white robes appeared.
The disciples were all very young, but their cultivations were all at the Xiantian realm. On each of their chests, there was a large ancient immortal script — Xuan Realm.
On the surface of the big word, there were two modern words — Law Enforcement. These people were the law enforcers of the Xuantian Sect.
Ordinary law enforcers were all Xiantian realm experts. The Celestial Sect of Wonders was indeed a heavyweight of the Eastern Wastelands. Their background was frightening.
"I am Long Chen, a disciple who has come to participate in the competition." Long Chen said.
"The registration has already ended. Why are you only just now? Do you have an identity token? " A disciple said with a frown.
"Yes!"
Long Chen took out the nameplate that he had "applied for" with the newly appointed headquarter and handed it to that person. That person took a glance and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the nameplate, he said:
“Follow this path down the mountain. If you cross over seventeen mountains, a small teleportation formation will appear in front of you and enter the Dao Sect examination grounds. I really don’t understand. I will inquire about it when I return the nameplate to Long Chen.”
"Haha, thanks a lot!"
Long Chen cupped his fist and followed the direction that the person had pointed to. They moved along a path and moved forward at a fast speed.
Looking at Long Chen’s leaving figure, the law enforcement disciple couldn’t help but mutter: "The thirty-sixth branch, Long Chen? Why does this name sound so familiar? "
The heck, the Xuantian Branch was way too big. Long Chen ran for nearly two hours before he finally reached ten mountains. Tens of thousands of miles had already passed.
After much difficulty, he finally saw the Teleportation Formation in front of him. Long Chen showed his nameplate and stepped onto it.
After his line of sight returned to normal, Long Chen appeared in an enormous plaza. Even with Long Chen’s mental fortitude, he was still cursing in his heart. What was going on?
In the center of the plaza stood a huge statue. Its charm and charm were exactly the same as those of the XuantianMonastery, but it was much bigger. It was about three thousand meters tall and could almost touch the clouds.
The square was covered with green stone bricks. Every stone brick was covered in runes. With the support of these runes, it would be difficult for an ordinary Xiantian expert to destroy every stone brick.
The heck, this was simply too extravagant. Wouldn’t such a huge plaza cost hundreds of millions of stone bricks?
Currently, in the plaza, there were many people walking around. There were many young disciples wearing the Xuantian Sect’s uniform, both male and female, and it was extremely lively.
As Long Chen looked at the scene before him, he suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity. This was because he didn’t recognize any of these people.
“Look, there’s a person over there!” Suddenly, a group of chattering women saw Long Chen and let out a low cry.
"Why is he dressed differently from us? “Furthermore, he looks so stylish. Look at his eyes, he’s so aggressive!” A lady with a ponytail said softly.
Only now did Long Chen notice that everyone present was wearing white disciple clothing. A number was drawn on their shoulders, indicating which branch power department they came from.
Long Chen came in a hurry and didn’t wear his disciple’s attire. Besides, he didn’t wear his disciple’s attire when he was in the branch academy. He was wearing a black robe from start to finish.
He was the only one who was eye-catching. As soon as he arrived, everyone’s attention was immediately attracted.
"What a cute little brother, do you need help? “If there’s anything you need, don’t mention it. Big sister is very friendly.” Among the female disciples closest to Long Chen, one of the bravest had already started teasing him.
Lovely? Little brother? Long Chen had lived for so long, but this was the first time he’d received such an intimate title. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
"Aiya, little brother is shy!" The woman suddenly laughed coquettishly.
Long Chen was speechless. He glanced at the symbol on their chests. The number drawn on it was 28, which meant that they were from the 28 Branch.
"Sisters …"
Long Chen was about to inquire about the thirty-sixth Monastery’s encampment and where it was when he suddenly saw many people gathered in a circle in the distance. It seemed as if something had happened.
"Ah, the disciples of the thirty-sixth branch academy have been bullied again!" Those girls sighed.
"Little brother, you want to ask … …. "Eh, where is he?" The girl turned around and saw that Long Chen had already disappeared.
Long Chen squeezed through the crowd and saw that there was an open space in front of him. A dozen people were surrounding two people, clamoring about something.
Long Chen’s heart warmed at the sight of those two. They were the two soldiers from the Dragonblood Legion.
At this time, their cultivation had already reached the middle Xiantian realm. Seeing this cultivation made Long Chen smile.
Before Long Chen left for the Pill Tower, he had warned them not to rush to increase their strength and consolidate their cultivation. It seemed that the benefits they would receive would be even greater than they imagined with the assistance of the Soul Suppressing Melody.
Although their cultivation bases were not high, merely at the Xiantian fourth stage, their foundation was solid to the extreme. This was the best foundation for them to break through to the Sea Cleaving Realm in the future.
But now, he realized that his cultivation was only at the Second Sky of Nascent Level, and he was still in the early Xiantian realm.
Long Chen discovered that most of the disciples here had reached the middle stage of the Xiantian realm. There were also some that had reached the late stage of the Xiantian realm.
This not only made Long Chen sigh with emotion, he was so busy every day that he didn’t even have the time to stick out his tongue. His cultivation had been left behind, and he needed to seize every moment to cultivate.
"All of you, do not go too far. You have bullied each other multiple times, and we have not ceased to yield. That is because the head of the sect told us not to cause any trouble. However, this does not mean that we are afraid of you." A soldier of the Dragon Blood Army said coldly.
It turned out that after the thirty-sixth branch disciple arrived at the Xuantian Sect, they were provoked and insulted by many other branch disciples.
Some of the disciples, unable to bear the humiliation any longer, directly attacked the opposite party. As a result, many of them suffered great losses because of this.
When Shui Wuhen heard this, she could not help but be infuriated. She knew that the Zhou family was behind the scenes, deliberately allowing their branch family to make things difficult for the thirty-six branches.
Each of the four noble families controlled the nine branches, but Shui Wuhen had turned against the vice sect master because of Long Chen’s incident, which had triggered the family’s discontent. They believed that Shui Wuhen was becoming more and more presumptuous, disregarding the overall situation and acting recklessly, requiring a warning.
In the end, the other branches under the clan’s banner coldly watched the situation of the thirty-sixth Monastery from the sidelines and did not provide any help.
As for the Martial Arts Examination, before it was held, the Xuan Dao Sect allowed disciples to spar with each other. As long as they didn’t deliberately kill each other, they wouldn’t care about it.
Only when there was competition could there be motivation. When there was pressure, there would only be an explosive burst. This was a sect’s strategy for winning and surviving; almost every sect did the same.
Thus, the entire square was a place for everyone to freely move about. If anyone here disliked them, they could challenge them at any time.
In order to prevent the people on his side from being bullied, Shui Wuhen tried his best to keep everyone from going out. However, according to the rules of the Mysterious Heaven Sect, each branch had to send people to the branch office to sign in every day.
Signing in meant reporting the movements of the daily staff. It was only a form, but it had to be followed.
Today, in order to not attract anyone’s attention, the two of them secretly went out. However, on the way back, they were blocked. This made the two of them angry; this was simply bullying others.
“A bunch of cowards. Is it just a spar?” You don’t even have the courage to make a move. Did your mother give birth to you all just to make you cowards? " A man with a mole on the corner of his mouth sneered in disdain.
As for the people behind him, they all let out cold snorts of disdain. When Long Chen took a glance at them, he realized that their symbols originated from the disciples of the 25 branch academies.
Long Chen didn’t say anything as he stood in the middle of the crowd. He wanted to see how the two of them would deal with this situation.
"Boss said that sparring is a type of boring game, we are not allowed to act as we please," the Dragonblood Warrior said while shaking his head.
"Boss?" "Hahaha, did you hear that? As a disciple of the Xuantian School, you call yourself a bumpkin? Your boss must be a bumpkin, right?" The man with the mole laughed.
“Shut up! You’re the f * cking bumpkin! Our boss is Long Chen, an unrivalled genius, an invincible existence!” The Dragon Blood Legion soldier roared with his eyes red. His anger had already reached its peak.
Seeing the two soldiers angry, the man with a black mole sneered: “What a fart genius! He’s just a dead ghost. He did something shameful and was struck to death by lightning. Trash!”
"F * ck you!"
The two soldiers couldn’t hold it in any longer and threw a punch towards the man. Because the distance was too close, the man with the mole didn’t expect that the two would attack as soon as they said so.
However, one of them smashed his fist into his chest, while the other smashed his fist into his nose. With a loud ‘kacha’ sound, that person screamed as he was sent flying.
"Bastard! How dare he sneak attack us! Attack them together and cripple them!"
The disciples that followed the man with the mole angrily roared and rushed over. If they didn’t follow the rules and attacked, they could still gang up on them.
"Puff puff puff …"
Suddenly, the blade flashed as blood splashed out. The disciples who were charging over did not expect that the two of them would use weapons. Furthermore, their killing moves were so powerful that they were scared out of their wits.
After all, they were all elite level elites and were very sensitive to danger. If they were half a step too late, they would have been cut into two halves with a single slash.
"Bastard, you two actually intend to kill people. Come at them together, kill them!" At this moment, the man with the mole held his nose, drew out a long sword and charged forward.
Chapter 700 - Kneeling

"Ah!"
As the man screamed, one of his arms flew into the air and the other leg was chopped off.
The man with the mole on his chin had just rushed up and almost had his neck chopped off. Although he was able to dodge with all his might and escape with his life, that Dragonblood Warrior had easily chopped off his thigh with a single stroke.
Suddenly, everyone cried out in alarm. This was too fierce! As soon as they came into contact with the man with the mole, the plaza was dyed with his blood. If it wasn’t for the fact that the man retreated so quickly, he would have already become a headless corpse.
Long Chen nodded. Every single soldier in the Dragon Blood Legion was an elite warrior who had fought their way out from the battlefield. Although their cultivation level wasn’t high, their lethality was absolutely terrifying.
Long Chen had once told them that they should either not make a move or not. If they did, then they must use the most violent method to take the life of their opponent. Every single move was aimed at killing the opponent.
This was also why not letting them spar with each other was to let them develop a habit of killing. This habit would to a large extent save their lives in a true life and death battle.
This kind of ordinary sparring was like some boring examination. With so many tests, people would forget the true meaning of battle. Their moves would become flashy, but they would not possess true might.
This was also why evil experts were much stronger than righteous experts. It was because evil experts never sparred, and as long as they attacked, they would fight to the death with each other.
"Such viciousness, you are all out of hand!"
Suddenly, an angry shout rang out and a man rushed over. He had just arrived when a terrifying pressure pushed back everyone nearby. Runes covered the sky; it was actually a Skywalker who had attacked.
Skywalker let out a cold snort, then punched out with his fist. The two Dragonblood Warriors hurriedly raised their weapons to block.
However, they were only ordinary people. Under the effects of the Heavenly Dao and the abnormal sign from Ming Dong, their battle power was greatly reduced. At the same time, the frightening power of their opponent surged forth like a surging tide.
The two of them were immediately knocked back by the terrifying force and coughed out a mouthful of blood. The power of Skywalker was simply unable to resist.
However, even when the two of them faced the terrifying Skywalker, they did not show any fear. Instead, their battle intent overflowed into the heavens as they pointed their weapons at Skywalker. Their eyes were calm, so calm that it was terrifying.
"What a terrifying battle intent!"
The hearts of the surrounding people trembled. They were all intimidated by the auras of the two of them. Even in the face of an unrivalled enemy, their minds weren’t affected in the slightest. What a powerful will this was!
“You’re courting death!”
Seeing that the two of them were able to block his attack and merely spit out a mouthful of blood instead of falling onto the ground, even pointing their weapons at him, not only did he get enraged, he even pointed his weapon at them.
"Kill!" Skywalker extended his hand, and countless runes appeared on his fist as he punched out at the two. This punch caused space to tremble, causing the expressions of the surrounding people to change drastically.
"Boom!"
Kacha. Skywalker punched out with his fist. The two Dragonblood Warriors tried their best to resist, but they were still unable to withstand that terrifying force. The weapon in their hands was actually shattered.
The shattered pieces pierced right through their bodies, causing them to both cough out blood as they flew backwards. This attack was simply too terrifying, it wasn’t something they could withstand.
Just as the two of them got up from the ground, Skywalker had already rushed over like a phantom. He waved both of his hands in the air, slapping them on the shoulders.
"Kneel!" Skywalker bellowed.
"Pa!"
Just as the two were about to be humiliated, a large hand appeared from an extremely strange angle. It was like the palm of a ghost as it heavily slammed onto that sinister and arrogant face.
"What?"
The crowd could not help but be astonished. Skywalker had been sent flying with a slap. As he spun around, more than thirty bloody teeth shone with a dazzling brilliance under the sunlight. They drew a perfect parabola as they landed on the plaza.
A thin figure stood in front of the two Dragon Bloodline Warriors. Black robes fluttered on his body and his long hair fluttered. He gave off an indescribably relaxed and unrestrained feeling.
"Boss!"
The two Dragon Blood Warriors couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise when they saw the figure’s back. Their voices were filled with excitement and trembling.
Long Chen was the one who attacked. He didn’t do anything before because he wanted to see how powerful the soldiers of the Dragon Blood Legion were now.
To be able to face a powerful Skywalker without showing any signs of discouragement or fear, Long Chen was very satisfied. As a martial artist, their will and talent were equally important.
“Good job! You’ve given me face!” Long Chen patted their shoulders. He discovered that even though they were injured, their physiques were extremely strong. Unexpectedly, they were unaffected. This meant that they were both tempering their own bodies during this period of time.
"Bastard, who are you?" After Skywalker was sent flying with a slap, he was not only shocked but also enraged as he shouted in a stern voice.
Long Chen slowly turned around and looked at Skywalker. A light flashed in his eyes, and it was as if two sharp blades had stabbed into that man’s eyes.
"Kneel!"
The two words were not very loud. However, there was endless killing intent and unquestionable determination in those words.
Skywalker immediately felt a terrifying will lock onto him. He immediately felt as if his entire body was being pressed down by a mountain. An incomparably fearful feeling rose in his heart.
He felt that the world had changed. The only people left in the world were him and Long Chen. Long Chen was like a god of death, a scythe for harvesting lives, which rested on his neck.
Long Chen was like a god. With just a thought, his soul would be scattered. It was a type of reverence and fear that came from the depths of his soul.
When he said those two words, Long Chen gathered all of his killing intent and locked down Skywalker with his soul force.
This was a type of soul oppression, but also a form of willpower contest. Long Chen had expressed his own willpower in order to humiliate his brother. If he didn’t kneel, he would die.
If he really did dare to resist, then Long Chen, under the influence of his Qi, would immediately unleash a thunderous attack and kill him without mercy. As for causing trouble, Long Chen didn’t even think much about it.
At this moment, this commotion had attracted the attention of countless people. They all came over and looked at each other. Long Chen stood with his hands behind his back while Skywalker’s body was trembling. His face was filled with fear and struggle.
"Plop!"
Under the shocked gazes of countless people, Skywalker was unable to withstand the pressure. The pressure Long Chen gave him was actually forced to kneel on the ground. For a moment, everyone’s hearts didn’t beat as they thought, Just what kind of demon is this? A single sentence from him was enough to make Skywalker kneel.
Long Chen’s will and killing intent were all focused on Skywalker, so no one could see what was going on.
Long Chen coldly snorted. Skywalker struggled for a moment before kneeling on the ground. Everyone felt chills running down their spines. Just how terrifying was this black-robed man?
After Skywalker kneeled on the ground, the terrifying will that had been attached to his body disappeared. The shock and anger on his face disappeared, and in the face of the disdainful gazes of countless people, he suddenly roared out.
Under the fury of Skywalker, he unleashed his full strength with a single fist strike. A terrifying pressure pressed against the air, causing the surrounding people to feel as though they were suffocating.
Long Chen, on the other hand, wasn’t in a hurry. He also threw out a punch towards that person’s fist.
"Bang!"
With an explosive sound, Skywalker let out a miserable shriek. Amidst the screams of shock from the crowd, one of his arms was actually shattered. Skywalker was sent flying backwards, actually fainting due to the impact.
The eyes of the two Dragon Bloodline warriors behind Long Chen were filled with worship. Their boss was their boss. Every time they saw Long Chen make a move, it would make their blood boil.
The surrounding crowd all looked to Long Chen as if he was a monster. Especially those female disciples who had teased Long Chen before, they were even more stunned.
They never would have thought that the cute little brother in their eyes was actually not cute at all. He was truly terrifying.
The powerful Skywalker was simply nothing in front of him. It was like an adult beating a child. How was this a battle? This was simply torturing.
The appearance of Long Chen had reversed the situation. With a wave of his hand, he had almost crippled Skywalker. Moreover, from beginning to end, his aura hadn’t exploded at all. He was simply a monster.
“I know, he’s from the first Monastery. He’s known as the monster level genius — — Long Chen!” Someone suddenly cried out.
“What?” Didn’t he fall? Has he come back alive? " The news of Long Chen’s death was something that many people in the entire Xuantian Sect knew.
Although the Zhou and the Shui Families tried their best to keep the news a secret, such a thing would not be beneficial to both clans. Moreover, it would not benefit the entire Xuantian Sect.
However, there was no wall in this world that did not leak out. The news of Long Chen suffering a punishment from the heavens in the Anarchic Lands had still been dug out.
Now that Long Chen had appeared, the two Dragonblood Warriors called him their boss. In addition to his terrifying fighting strength, everyone immediately thought of him.
“Let’s go, us brothers will go back and have a drink.” Long Chen patted their shoulders as he laughed heartily.
The two Dragonblood Warriors couldn’t help but be overjoyed. During this period of time, it was always Tang Wan’er who managed them. In order to urge them to cultivate, Tang Wan’er didn’t allow them to drink during this period of time.
“Stop, you’re injured, yet you still want to leave?”
Just as Long Chen was about to leave, he heard a cold snort. Long Chen turned around and saw five or six Skywalkers walking over with a large man in tow.
Before them was a tall and sturdy body like a bear with a full beard. When Long Chen carefully sized up the man, his heart couldn’t help but shiver and his pupils constricted.
"Tier 2 Skywalker."
