The starry sea ignited as Long Chen’s eight stars blazed like miniature suns. Small dense stars were spinning around the eight stars as if they were little galaxies surrounded by nebulas. Meanwhile, violet flames erupted from Long Chen’s starry sea, intensifying with every moment.
For the first time, Long Chen fully unleashed his astral energy. In his rage, he no longer cared about slowly activating them and pushed the Eight Star Battle Armor to its limit.
He didn’t care if his body could endure it. After all, his rage had become a blazing inferno—if he didn't release it, he’d be consumed by it.
As his starry sea burned, violet flames filled the world, shaking the land. A terrifying pressure radiated from Long Chen, causing the very fabric of space to twist and tear. The ten thousand Daos wailed in response, recoiling in fear.
“Retreat!” Tang Wan-er cried out.
Just as she led everyone back, the place they had stood on suddenly collapsed. Spatial runes circled the air, as if invisible beasts were devouring the very fabric of space.
As the void beneath Ye Linfeng’s feet shattered, he lunged toward Long Chen to seize the initiative.
BOOM!
However, before he could reach Long Chen, a wave of surging qi blasted him back.
“What?!”Everyone was shocked by this, including Ye Linfeng. He had attacked to interrupt Long Chen’s climbing aura, knowing if it continued rising, he would be in trouble. However, he couldn’t even get close. Only then did he realize that he had done something extremely foolish.
Around Long Chen, swirling nebulas orbited his blazing stars, and his aura continued to grow wildly. Space itself seemed unable to contain his power, tearing apart around him.
Finally, the onlookers comprehended how terrifying Long Chen was. Back when he had called their previous fight a “warm-up,” it wasn’t an exaggeration—in truth, it was barely more than him stretching his muscles.
“Stop him! Don’t let his aura keep rising!” shouted the Brahma Pill Valley elder in alarm.
The Wind Domain Battlefield was sealed off by a barrier, supposedly preventing any outside interference, yet this elder had used a secret art to send his voice through. Gone was his previous calm indifference; his tone was now edged with panic and fear as he realized the full extent of Long Chen’s power.
Long Chen’s aura continued climbing, sending the runes of the ten thousand Daos scattering away from him. It was a phenomenon they had never seen before.
This was a clash of wills between Long Chen and the Heavenly Daos. The latter was trying to suppress him because his power could threaten the stability of the world.
“God Power: Violet Lightning Cloud Piercing Palm!” Ye Linfeng roared, a hint of panic breaking through his voice.
A lightning bolt rune appeared on his palm as his Heavenly Fate Disk spun, unleashing its full might. Previously, his Heavenly Fate Disk had only shown scattered lights and flashing runes, but now, for the first time, it spun at full power.
The void exploded as Ye Linfeng’s attack tore through the qi waves radiating from Long Chen. Yet as his palm pierced deeper, the crowd realized that Long Chen’s qi waves were layered, continuously regenerating with dense waves of energy. Each layer Ye Linfeng broke through was instantly replaced by another, seemingly endless.
Ye Linfeng’s palm attack cut through these waves until he was almost at Long Chen’s chest. Yet, Long Chen didn’t even flinch. Just as Ye Linfeng’s hand was within three feet of Long Chen, the lightning bolt rune on his palm faded, its power exhausted. He still hadn’t managed to touch Long Chen and was blasted back by the relentless qi waves.
“What?!” Everyone was shocked. Despite Ye Linfeng being in his full combat state, he still couldn’t approach Long Chen. Just how powerful was Long Chen?
“Stop holding back! Ignite the Martial God Eyes!” shouted the elder from the Brahma Pill Valley urgently.
Hearing that, Ye Linfeng took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. When he reopened them, a golden ring glowed in his pupils, and twin golden pupils appeared within his Heavenly Fate Disk.
BOOM!
The ten thousand Daos were wailing because of Long Chen’s power. However, when these pupils appeared, the wailing ceased. People found that the restraints of the laws of heaven and earth had vanished. It felt as though the heavens had surrendered, ceasing to clash with their powers.
“You are the first person in the same realm to force me to use the Martial God Eyes,” said Ye Linfeng.
He was an extremely proud person. For Long Chen to force him to use the Martial God Eyes was a humiliation to him.
Ye Linfeng took a step forward, his lightning rune reappearing. This time, he unleashed the same attack as before, but now it bore a supreme divine power. The qi waves around Long Chen parted instantly as Ye Linfeng closed the gap between them.
This time, Long Chen moved, and his hand that was covered in stars slammed into Ye Linfeng’s palm. When their palms met, spacetime seemed to freeze, and all sound faded from the world. One was powered by god energy and the other by astral might—two apocalyptic forces collided in a silent clash. Only the sound of hearts pounding could be heard.
“Although I haven’t reached my peak state, it’s more than enough against you,” said Long Chen with icy killing intent.
“Big words. How about I go kill that woman right now?” responded Ye Linfeng just as coldly.
Suddenly, black ripples appeared in Long Chen’s eyes, and a chill ran down Ye Linfeng’s spine. For a moment, he felt as though an ancient beast had awakened, its gaze fixed on him.
Long Chen was still clashing with Ye Linfeng. Suddenly, he extended his thumb and pinkie and grabbed Ye Linfeng’s hand, like two iron pincers digging into it.
Ye Linfeng felt a burst of pain and tried to pull his hand.
The sound of bones breaking rang out, followed by Ye Linfeng’s scream. His hand was forcibly ripped apart by Long Chen.
