Chapter 832: 832
Long Chen felt gooseb.u.mps . Invisible blades were suddenly shooting up from below, attacking him and Leng Yueyan .
Flying Rainbow released a barrier of light that protected him, while Leng Yueyan also stopped attacking . Her bone blade blocked those invisible attacks .
Long Chen’s hand trembled when those invisible blades struck his sword . He sensed countless invisible arrows of some sort of energy were going through Flying Rainbow’s barrier when he broke the invisible blades .
His body instantly became riddled with small holes . Even his powerful body didn’t have the slightest ability to resist this unknown power .
“Careful . These are spatial blades, the result of when peak experts shattered the void . This place is a land of death created by experts that broke heaven and earth’s laws . This is just a trace of the chaotic flow of s.p.a.ce, but it’s still not something people on your level can resist,” said the Eastern Wasteland Bell .
But Long Chen had no time to care about the spatial blades of the chaotic flow of s.p.a.ce . Right now, he was surrounded by invisible attacks . He could only faintly sense them right before they struck him . He did his best to block them, but he was still pierced over and over .
Leng Yueyan’s bone sword released waves of light . Runes revolved around her . Her defense was even stronger than Long Chen’s, but even she was unable to stop these invisible spatial blades . Blood was pouring out of her body .
Although they were both capable of rapidly healing, this wasn’t a solution . Furthermore, they were rapidly falling, and the attacks only grew stronger . They wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer .
“Hey, monster girl, if this continues, we’ll both die . It’s better if we work together,” said Long Chen .
Although he had the primal chaos bead’s healing, that wouldn’t work forever . As the spatial blades grew stronger, who knew whether or not one of them might instantly kill him?
Furthermore, the two of them were enemies . He not only had to block the spatial blades, but he also had to be on guard against Leng Yueyan . That was the most dangerous thing, which made it so Long Chen couldn’t focus completely .
“I, Leng Yueyan, disdain working together with others . Furthermore, in this world, other than myself, there’s no one I can trust . Also, if you randomly come up with nicknames for me, I’ll kill you right now,” said Leng Yueyan coldly .
“You moronic girl, being so obstinate will only cause you to accompany me in death,” snorted Long Chen . Both of them were in desperate straits . If they didn’t work together to find a way out of this, they would both die .
These abysses here were known as lands of death . Anyone who had fallen down had never been seen again . Having his proposal rejected infuriated him .
“Death isn’t terrifying . If you treat death as the start of another life, you won’t feel so afraid,” said Leng Yueyan indifferently .
Long Chen almost died from rage . Why did it seem this woman wanted to die so badly?
But he was different . He didn’t want to die, he wanted to live . He had many things that he hadn’t done yet . He had his brothers and beauties waiting for him . His parents were also waiting for him . He couldn’t die yet .
But Leng Yueyan refused to cooperate . It was unknown whether it was her pride or if she distrusted him . He couldn’t do anything about it .
Long Chen pushed his stars to their peak . Endless runes poured out of Flying Rainbow as each slash released a river of runes that wrapped around him .
But he still felt like the pressure was growing . It seemed like countless archers were shooting at him from every angle .
Furthermore, the spatial blades were growing more powerful . Any of them could instantly kill a rank two Celestial . Even ordinary rank three Celestials would only be able to last for a breath .
The two of them continued to fall for half an incense stick’s worth of time . As a result, they weren’t even able to see the sky anymore . The world had turned pitch-black for them . It was unknown just how many miles they had fallen .
The spatial blades were now incredibly terrifying . Long Chen almost had his head destroyed by one .
Long Chen was covered in blood as he continuously suffered injuries . He had drawn out the life energy in the primal chaos s.p.a.ce so many times now that the trees were already starting to show signs of withering .
There was no way around it . His body was constantly receiving heavy injuries, and if he didn’t immediately heal, the next spatial blade might directly shatter his body .
“Long Chen, how about we work together for a bit? Otherwise, we really will die . ” What Long Chen hadn’t expected was for Leng Yueyan to suddenly open her mouth .
He raged, “Death isn’t terrifying . If you treat death as the start of another life, you won’t feel so afraid . ”
But as soon as he said it, he regretted it . Just the slight satisfaction of returning her words to her had sealed his fate . That was clearly a bit childish .
“You can’t even maintain a clear head . You’re too emotional and impetuous, Long Chen . I take back my praise for you,” snorted Leng Yueyan .
Long Chen took a deep breath . Now really wasn’t the time to argue . Suppressing his emotions, he forced himself to be calm .
“Then let’s work together . Before we escape our current predicament, we definitely can’t attack each other . Are you capable of doing that?” asked Long Chen .
“I should be the one asking you that . Stabbing people in the back, hitting people when they’re down, conning their own people, those are the things your Righteous path is most proficient in . Don’t you feel asking me this is very satirical?”
Leng Yueyan’s words almost caused Long Chen’s rage to erupt out of control . But then thinking about it, her words were the truth . Although the Corrupt path was fierce and savage, they actually cared a great deal about prestige and reputation . As for the Righteous path… well, there was no need to say it so directly .
“Fine, I won’t lower myself to your level . Since I’ve chosen to work together with you, I’ll temporarily trust you,” said Long Chen . After saying that, he clenched his teeth and slowly approached Leng Yueyan .
Thinking of how he had to work together with this terrifying woman, he felt a chill . But there really was no other choice right now .
Once Long Chen was closer and had entered Leng Yueyan’s attack range, her sword suddenly released an even brighter light . She increased her defensive range to include him . In fact, her defensive perimeter instantly grew to three hundred meters .
Seeing that, Long Chen was shocked . Monstrous, absolutely monstrous . Just how strong was Leng Yueyan? Even now, she was able to release such terrifying power .
“You don’t need to be surprised . She is drawing out her bloodline energy . Just like you, she has Spirit Blood, but her Spirit Blood wasn’t extracted . Instead, it’s perfect, and furthermore… she seems to possess extremely strange origins . I’m actually unable to see through the origin of her Spirit Blood,” said the Eastern Wasteland Bell .
“Spirit Blood is actually so powerful?”
“Of course . That so-called bloodline power refers to ancestral experts that pa.s.s down a portion of their own talent through bloodline runes . But Spirit Blood is different . It is a spiritual blessing pa.s.sed down by supreme experts . Not only can it pa.s.s down talent and divine abilities, but it can even superimpose karmic luck . Spirit Blood is a sacred inheritance . How else do you think this girl is so strong?” said the Eastern Wasteland Bell .
“Spirit Blood, Spirit Blood . d.a.m.nit . ” Long Chen cursed inside . Previously, he hadn’t cared too much about having his Spirit Blood extracted . But seeing how terrifying Leng Yueyan was, his fury soared .
If he still possessed his Spirit Blood, would he be suppressed by this woman?
“Hey, did you only come here to take advantage?!” Leng Yueyan’s voice brought Long Chen back to reality .
Only now did he react . Right now, he was relying entirely on Leng Yueyan’s defense . He hastily began to brandish his sword, defending against the surrounding spatial blades .
His back was up against Leng Yueyan’s back . That way it would only take half the effort to defend themselves .
The two of them relaxed slightly . But very quickly, they were unable to stay relaxed . That was because they suddenly heard a terrifying rumbling coming from below . They hastily looked down .
This place was completely black, but with their cultivation bases combined with their Spiritual Strength, they were able to see .
They saw a huge chain at the bottom of the abyss . That chain was over a hundred miles thick, and it was unknown just how long it was . It extended throughout the abyss .
That unbelievably thick chain was surrounded by revolving runes . Endless spatial blades were flying out of it .
The spatial blades they had run into had been invisible, but the spatial blades coming from the huge chain were easy to see . Those blades slashed through the void . s.p.a.ce was constantly being torn and then healed . That ear-piercing sound gave them chills .
“We still have an incense stick’s worth of time before we reach the bottom . Once we touch those spatial blades, we won’t even have corpses left,” said Leng Yueyan indifferently .
Long Chen took a deep breath and said, “Even at such a time, you can still calmly and objectively appraise the situation . I really have to admire you . Respected Devil Empress, I need you to help protect me . I’ll use a magical art to lock us in s.p.a.ce . Otherwise, we’ll quickly be cut into mincemeat . ”
After saying that, Long Chen stopped defending . He rapidly formed hand seals . Countless flame runes surged around him, and Leng Yueyan brandished her bone blade to protect him .
“Raging Flame Prison!”
A huge flame prison appeared, enveloping Long Chen and Leng Yueyan . It immediately began to shrink to a size of three meters . No matter how the wind blades tried, they were unable to damage the flame prison .
Long Chen thanked his lucky stars . If any of the spatial blades had touched the nodes of the flame prison when it had formed, then it would have shattered just like when Leng Yueyan had broken it .
But to break that node, which only appeared for an instant, was something only Leng Yueyan could do with her Voidpiercing Eyes .
“This technique of yours is very powerful,” praised Leng Yueyan upon seeing that the wind blades were unable to shake the flame prison .
Long Chen sighed, “Even if it’s strong, it doesn’t have any use . We still have a bit of time . Whether or not we can survive is up to you . I’m out of moves . ”
Leng Yueyan was startled . But once she spread her divine sense, her expression changed .
