Chapter 5263 Not Qualified
Long Chen’s divine ring spun behind him, and his eight stars flickered. The starry sea above him made him seem like a battle G.o.d of the starry sky, one capable of gazing down on the nine heavens.
At this sight, the Heaven Devil ground his teeth, his wings and tail twitching. The sharp bone spike at the end of his tail was pointed at Long Chen and roving, as if searching for Long Chen’s weakness.
The two of them stood three thousand meters apart, but icy killing intent burned in their eyes as they stared at each other.
“This is what you call a heavenly genius of the Heaven Devil race? Heh, weaker than I expected,” mocked Long Chen.
“Foolish human, you aren’t qualified to look down on my race! If you hadn’t interrupted me, I would have awakened the primal chaos devil body and made you kneel before me!” roared the Heaven Devil.
“Hmph, if I became a half-step Human Emperor, you wouldn’t even be qualified to kneel in front of me. The Heaven Devil race is just a bunch of arrogant fools whose strongest trait is their bragging,” sneered Long Chen.
“You really p.i.s.s me off!” the Heaven Devil growled.
His tail twitched, tearing the void apart with a single flick, and he shot at Long Chen like a black bolt of lightning.
BOOM!
Long Chen swung his hand and struck the Heaven Devil squarely in the face again. The force sent the Heaven Devil tumbling back with an explosive sound.
“Are you a pig? You never learn your lesson. Against our boss, you have to maintain your distance!” shouted Guo Ran.
The Heaven Devil no longer had any advantage in terms of aura, so victory seemed to be within Long Chen’s grasp.
The Heaven Devil charged at Long Chen again, closing the gap. Had Long Chen not been deliberately forcing him to show his full strength, the cycle of beatings would have continued.
“Die!” the Heaven Devil screamed.
In his rage, black qi ignited around him, and black flames consumed the world. Countless runes lit up on his bone sword as he swung it down.
Abandoning fist combat, the Heaven Devil had chosen to rely on his bone sword after failing to gain any advantage in their previous exchanges. Although he had believed his powerful body would give him the edge in close combat, Long Chen’s divine face-slapping had shattered his confidence. Left with no choice, he ignited his blood soul energy and concentrated all his power into his bone sword.
BOOM!
The Heaven Devil’s bone sword clashed with Long Chen’s punch, sending them both flying back once more.
The Heaven Devil glared furiously at Long Chen, enraged that Long Chen still hadn’t drawn the ma.s.sive saber strapped to his back. By continuing to fight barehanded, Long Chen was openly insulting the Heaven Devil. In other words, Long Chen thought that the Heaven Devil wasn’t worthy of dirtying his weapon.
“You d.a.m.n ingrate!” the Heaven Devil roared furiously. Its wings suddenly vanished, and a pair of wing-like runes appeared on his bone sword.
Through some unknown method, the Heaven Devil transferred the power of his wings to his sword. His sword then sliced toward Long Chen with immense destructive power.
Facing this full-power attack, Long Chen sneered, “Are you afraid? You’re actually holding back some power for running!”
“You...” The Heaven Devil almost deflated on the spot. Long Chen’s words struck the mark.
He had ignited his Heaven Devil wings, but he had kept some power in reserve. Just as Long Chen said, the Heaven Devil no longer had any confidence. Deep down, he feared that Long Chen hadn’t shown his full strength yet.
“Someone like you isn’t qualified to make me draw my saber! Try surviving this one first. Star Ocean—G.o.d Slaying Cross!” exclaimed Long Chen.
A cross appeared on Long Chen’s palm as he smashed it against the bone sword. The energy from his Starry Sky Battle Robe surged into his hand, dimming the robe ever so slightly.
BOOM!
The bone sword shattered into fragments, some of which pierced the Heaven Devil’s body, leaving him riddled with holes. He then vomited blood, and his aura plummeted.
As the cross on Long Chen’s palm slowly darkened, he coldly said, “You couldn’t even block this attack. Hmph, you aren’t qualified to fall to Dragonbone Evilmoon.”
“Haha, well done! I like that!” Evilmoon’s voice echoed in Long Chen’s mind, clearly pleased with Long Chen’s arrogance.
The Heaven Devil crashed into the ground, creating a ma.s.sive hole. But all of a sudden, he flew into the air again, his body bloodied and one of his eyes shattered, leaving a gaping void in its place.
He panted for breath as this attack had wounded him seriously. Though he had survived by holding back some power, he was in no condition to continue fighting.
“d.a.m.n human, just wait. The Heaven Devil race will soon conquer the nine heavens and ten lands! I swear I will kill all of you!” The Heaven Devil spat, hatred dripping from every word. He couldn’t believe being defeated by a lifeform he looked down upon, but he had no choice but to accept it.
Long Chen smiled. “Judging by your tone, it sounds like you’re planning to flee. Dream on.”
“Hahaha!” the Heaven Devil laughed maniacally. “You fools, if I want to leave, even ten thousand of you couldn’t stop me!”
Blood mist suddenly shot out of its mouth, enveloping his body, causing it to fade.
However, just as he started to disappear, he halted. His expression changed dramatically as he saw a violet eye in the sky, with three spinning flowers within it. This violet eye had completely sealed the s.p.a.ce around him.
