Dragon War God

Chapter 174 - Cataclysmic Wind Finger!

Long Chen was not even a little surprised that Chu Yunxi would use an advanced Black-tier combat technique! “Have we arrived at the victory-defining strike?” Long Chen smirked coldly and his movements suddenly quickened significantly.

After such a long fight, the audience learned one thing: Long Chen had reached Chu Yunxi’s level!

Complex emotions filled their gazes as they watched Long Chen.

He was on par with Chu Yunxi’s younger sister, Chu Yunyao, when they met just a month ago. Although no victor had been determined, they knew that Long Chen and Chu Yunyao were equivalent in strength. However, one month later, Long Chen was on par with her elder brother, who was known as the Turquoise family’s number one prodigy and the one she admired!

She did not dare believe that this was reality.

“This is impossible, impossible! I must be hallucinating.” Chu Yunyao shook her head and then glanced at Dongfang Tianyu anxiously. He was watching the duel with a cold glare.

After a while, his breathing quickened and he said, “The winner is about to be revealed.”

“Will he win?” Liu Lan was also torn.

After Long Chen shocked her by selling the Violet Demonic Lizard’s Beast Soul, she was sure that he would lose badly in the qualifiers. But how could she explain what was happening before her eyes?

Long Chen had created one miracle after another, shining brightly on the stage that was the inner family qualifiers. Liu Lan was completely floored by his strength by now.

She stared at the energetic Long Chen in a daze, fully attracted by the teenager’s muscular back profile. She suddenly remembered the promise she made to him in a moment of rage, and a sickeningly beautiful blush appeared on her usually cold features.

“Long Chen, you really are a man full of miracles ...”

At the current moment, the man full of miracles was in a stalemate with Chu Yunxi!

“Your strength may have far exceeded my expectations, but an advanced Body Tempering Technique cannot be used as an advanced Black-tier martial technique! Die!”

This time, Chu Yunxi unleashed the most powerful martial technique he had. The immense scale of this attack was on par with Yin Mengyao’s Churning Sea Seal, even exceeding it.

Clouds flew and the wind started howling. The wind screamed continuously, intensifying as it twisted around Chu Yunxi. The powerful attack placed immense pressure on Long Chen.

“Do you think you’re the only one allowed to have an advanced Black-tier combat technique?” Long Chen sneered coldly. His heart was calm, but the Qi in his body started vibrating violently!

This time, I will unleash the Sword Devil Finger in its entirety for the first time, while I am in my most powerful form!

He had already used his new martial technique twice. The first time was during his fight with the teenager from the Red family. However, he had not used the Dragon Soul Transformation, so the attack was only released on a normal scale. He had also used it on Liu Qiong of the Gold family while breaking out of their ring, but not to its fullest potential.

This time, the full strength of the Sword Devil Finger was unleashed!

“Chu Yunxi is using an advanced Black-tier combat technique,” commented the surrounding elders with some awe. “Long Chen of the Turquoise family probably won’t fare well this time.”

Liu Lan was extremely anxious after hearing these comments, clenching both fists tightly. “You guys! Look at Long Chen’s finger!” exclaimed someone in the crowd. They all looked towards Long Chen.

Long Chen’s right index finger looked as if it had turned into glass that shone with starlight, resembling a sparkling jewel. The aura of sharpness it radiated made them nervous.

“If he’s using this attack against Xi’er, it must be an advanced Black-tier technique,” remarked Chu Tianxiong with knitted brows.

“What?” Chu Fengqing and Chu Yunyao gasped.

Chu Yunyao asked anxiously, “Then, will Brother be able to defeat him?”

“Watch him!” Chu Tianxiong’s eyes were cold. He turned his head to glance at Dongfang Xuanxiao, and he saw that he was also fixated on the duel.

Chu Tianxiong was actually preparing to save Chu Yunxi in the event that his grandson was unable to withstand his opponent’s attack. However, he was also concerned because Dongfang Xuanxiao was standing right there.

Under the anxious gazes of the crowd, the duel between Long Chen and Chu Yunxi reached its climax.

The tornado spinning around Chu Yunxi had reached its peak form, and a moment later, the violent tornado was suddenly compressed until it was the size of his arm, twisting above his finger!

The explosive energy it contained made Long Chen apprehensive.

That was when Chu Yunxi let out a guffaw and unleashed his most powerful attack!

Rumble, rumble!

He pointed his finger, causing the color of the sky to change! “Cataclysmic Wind Finger!”

It lived up to its classification as an advanced Black-tier martial technique, exceeding the Churning Sea Seal’s strength as it arrived right in front of Long Chen. The tornado had left behind a huge, deep groove in the mud where it traveled!

“Another finger technique?”

Long Chen’s expression did not change even in the face of an attack of this scale. Immediately after Chu Yunxi’s attack, he pointed hard in front of him! “Sword Devil Finger!”

Instantly, a shining ray of sword light exploded from his finger, momentarily lighting up the whole Mortal Cave. Everyone who saw the sudden light ray jumped in surprise!

“Such a powerful sword Qi!” Dongfang Yunxiao and the nine Grand Elders of the outer families were very impressed.

The sword Qi of the Sword Devil Finger soon collided with the Cataclysmic Wind Finger!

Whoosh!

Like the collision between a sword and a shield, they first heard piercing shrieks, then finally, there was a loud boom. Under the audience’s gazes of disbelief, the Cataclysmic Wind Finger, or the “shield,” was punctured by the Sword Devil Finger, or the “sword,” and it shattered in an explosion!

“Impossible!”

Chu Yunxi’s face was pale. His attack had ended up damaging himself instead, due to the strong vibration in his Qi from the collision. But the ray of light traveled further at a speed that he couldn’t compete with and shot right into his body!

“No!!” Chu Yunxi roared. At the very last moment, the only thing he could do was shield his whole body using his Qi, but the sharp, formidable ray of light still ended up shattering his Qi. The sharp sword Qi suddenly pierced through, turning into countless tiny blades that wreaked havoc on Chu Yunxi’s body.

“Pfft!”

Blood sprayed out of Chu Yunxi’s mouth, and he crashed into the mud beneath. He was instantly swallowed by the mud pool, though his blood dyed the surrounding mud red!

“Xi’er!”

“Brother!”

Panicked shouts sounded from the Turquoise family. Chu Tianxiong shot towards the mud pool with a cold glare, at a speed more than a hundred times faster than Long Chen!

Long Chen! If anything happens to Xi’er, I will chop your body into pieces! roared Chu Tianxiong in his heart as his eyes slowly turned bloodshot.

“What are you doing, Chu Tianxiong?” Someone appeared in front of Chu Tianxiong, blocking his way. It was Dongfang Xuanxiao, his expression mild.

Chu Tianxiong awoke from his rage when he was stopped by Dongfang Xuanxiao.

“Yunxi is injured, hasn’t he lost already?” he asked with his cold eyes fixed on Long Chen.

“First, he has not admitted defeat. Second, he hasn’t been severely injured and has not lost consciousness. So, I command you to return to where you were standing.” Dongfang looked at him. Although his tone was mild, there was an unshakable regalness in his gaze.

Although Chu Tianxiong was not satisfied, Dongfang Xuanxiao’s increasingly cold glare left him with no choice but to swallow his anger, glare maliciously at Long Chen, and then return to his previous spot.

Everyone’s gazes were fixed on Long Chen.

Chu Yunyao and the others found this difficult to believe. Their eyes were filled with shock, but also hatred.

“Brother Tianyu, I want Long Chen dead,” sobbed Chu Yunyao as she leaned on Dongfang Tianyu’s shoulder with tears flowing from her eyes.

Dongfang Tianyu was heartbroken to see the beautiful girl look so pitiful and sad. His expression turned cold, glaring at Long Chen, and he said in a low voice, “Yao’er, don’t worry. Long Chen will not be alive in ten days. This is my promise to you.”

“Really?” Chu Yunyao was overjoyed to hear that.

Dongfang Tianyu was a true inner family member. Being the son of Dongfang Xuanyun, who was one of the Eastern Azure Dragon family’s four great cultivators, his status was higher than the average person’s. With his assistance, Long Chen would be dead for sure.

Even if Long Chen was fortunate enough to enter the inner family in the end, he would have to live his days oppressed by Dongfang Tianyu. And Dongfang Tianyu would only need to find a random chance to kill him off.

“He defeated Chu Yunxi?” Shock was written all over Jin Sheng’en’s and Jin Luan’s faces. They looked at each other, then they reluctantly accepted reality.

“Long Chen’s talent is nonhuman. I didn’t understand why Lord Xuanxiao allowed him to participate in the qualifiers, but after today, I must admit that he has good judgment! Thank goodness Long Chen is not your opponent, or you would have to fight very hard!”

Jin Sheng’en had an advanced Black-tier Body Tempering Technique and combat technique, but Long Chen also had his own, and they were also excellent. This meant that both were on a level above the rest of the participants.

“Sheng’en, Long Chen’s strength is on par with yours.” Even Jin Luan was impressed by Long Chen.

“How is that possible?” Jin Sheng’en asked sourly. He and Long Chen bore deep enmity, and now the latter was threatening his place as the number one prodigy of the outer families. He was looking for death!

Jin Sheng’en’s eyes were filled with killing intent as he watched his good friend get defeated by Long Chen. Long Chen, I wish you were fighting me instead. That way, you would find out who the most talented prodigy of the outer family is!

As for Liu Yuan, he was left in a daze when he saw that Long Chen had defeated his opponent, unable to react.

The gorgeous Liu Lan shuddered next to him, her small mouth slightly agape and her eyes a little unfocused.

Chu Yunxi, covered all over in mud, finally crawled out of the mud pool, struggling hard.

It’s time for him to call me ‘grandfather,’ thought Long Chen. [1]

1. To act as a “grandson” means to put yourself beneath another person, sometimes also referring to brown-nosing behavior. In this case, calling the other guy your grandfather is an insult to yourself, because you're implying that you're the grandson. ?
