Chapter 1289 Nine Flowers Manifest the Heavenly Daos

Meng Qi’s huge area-of-effect attack didn’t actually contain any killing power . Her goal was only to affect the Corrupt expert’s souls for a moment to give Tang Wan-er a chance to unleash her attack .

Only a few Corrupt Soul Transformation experts with powerful souls and protective soul items were able to remain unaffected . The vast majority still felt like their heads were ringing and were unable to form any effective defenses . If this attack landed, it would probably have about the same effect as Guo Ran’s arrow .

“Hmph, an insignificant trick . Just how much could you possibly understand of the laws of heaven and earth?”

Suddenly, a cold laugh rang out, and a red-haired man suddenly appeared in front of the Corrupt Soul Transformation experts . It was Gui Yan .

Gui Yan formed a strange hand seal, and the space in front of him suddenly shook . Blood-red runes filled the air around it .

Heaven and earth were dyed a bloody color . Within the sea of blood-red runes, nine flowers appeared, forming a flower ring around Gui Yan .

“The manifestation of a rank nine Celestial - Nine Flowers Manifest the Heavenly Daos!” One of the Hall Masters of the Xuantian Dao Sect suddenly let out a startled cry, recognizing this version of the Cry of the Heavenly Daos .

Tang Wan-er’s attack struck Gui Yan’s runic sea . But shockingly, it only caused Gui Yan’s manifestation to shake three times before all of Tang Wan-er’s energy was sucked away . Not even a ripple managed to get past him .

“Not good! This is the absolute suppression of a rank nine Celestial!” The Hall Master’s expression sank .

This so-called absolute suppression was the huge restraining effect that rank nine Celestials had toward the lower ranks .

Nine . Nine was the pinnacle . In front of a rank nine Celestial, the attacks of rank eight Celestials would be affected by the Heavenly Daos and would have difficulty causing any injuries to a rank nine Celestial .

Whether it was a rank eight Celestial or a rank nine Celestial, when they summoned their Cry of the Heavenly Daos, they would be supported by Heavenly dao energy . That would make their attack power multiply by up to dozens of times .

This was a collision of power that came from the same source . It was like the clash of two rivers . Whichever side’s power was greater would be the side that absorbed the other .

From rank one Celestials to rank eight Celestials, there was always a suppressive effect on those of the lower ranks . But it was never as terrifying as the suppressive effect rank nine Celestials had on rank eight Celestials .

When Gui Yan summoned his Cry of the Heavenly Daos, everyone clearly felt the surrounding Heavenly Dao energy being stripped away from them . Tang Wan-er couldn’t even absorb a tenth of the Heavenly Dao energy that Gui Yan was absorbing .

Although they were both Celestials, the heavens were like a loving mother to one, but an evil stepmother to the other . The difference in treatment was immense .

Tang Wan-er was shocked . She was a rank eight Celestial, and with Meng Qi’s help, this full-power attack would have definitely slain a few Soul Transformation experts . But such a terrifying attack wasn’t even able to cause a ripple in Gui Yan’s runic sea .

Just as everyone was shocked by Gui Yan’s power, the sea of runes around Gui Yan suddenly surged as if a large rock had fallen in a sea . This was the reaction caused by Tang Wan-er’s attack falling into his manifestation .

Suddenly, a large runic arrow shot out from Gui Yan’s runic sea at the distant Guo Ran .

When this runic arrow appeared, everyone’s expressions changed . This arrow contained the energy of Tang Wan-er’s attack .

It was unknown what method Gui Yan had used to actually unleash Tang Wan-er’s attack as his own, even combining it with his own power . The runic arrow was like lightning, shooting toward Guo Ran at an alarming speed .

By the time Guo Ran reacted, the runic arrow was right in front of him . Even with his armor, this runic arrow contained the combined power of Tang Wan-er’s full-power attack and Gui Yan’s own power . It definitely wouldn’t be easy to receive .

Just at this moment, a figure appeared in front of Guo Ran and kicked his crossbow in the direction of the attack .

BOOM!

The huge crossbow was blown to bits . The explosion caused the world to lose all its color .

This attack was absolutely terrifying . Let alone Guo Ran, even Soul Transformation experts would have been annihilated .

“Guo Ran!” The Dragonblood warriors let out furious roars . Within that terrifying explosion, Guo Ran would be blown apart . All the Dragonblood warriors instantly became red-eyed beasts, their killing intent exploding .

“It’s boss!”

Just as they thought Guo Ran had died, the dust settled and space stopped twisting . They saw a huge ring in the air emitting endless divine might .

Long Chen stood in front of the divine ring, holding a pot . Slowly putting down the pot, he revealed Guo Ran behind him .

Long Chen’s eyes were completely calm, but that naughty smile of his had vanished . He had instantly become another person, seeming more like an undefeatable battle god . He put away the black pot and took out a blood-colored saber .

With Blooddrinker resting on his shoulder, he looked at Gui Yan and icily said, “Your opponent is me . Come at me!”

In the face of this terrifying rank nine Celestial, Long Chen was full of battle intent . Each powerful opponent was another stepping stone for him to advance . Only by using these stepping stones could he reach the peak of the martial path and get closer to his origins .

That was why what Long Chen felt toward Gui Yan wasn’t hatred or anger . There was only a thirst for a battle with an expert .

Gui Yan also wasn’t angry that Long Chen had blocked his attack . Instead, he laughed . “Good, looks like you’re a bit stronger than I thought . That will make it interesting . ” Then turning to the Corrupt experts behind him, he icily said, “I’m not from the same side as you . I only came this time for Long Chen . I’ve done all I need to do for you already, so starting now, your lives and deaths have nothing to do with me . ”

Buzz .

Gui Yan crushed a translucent jade tablet, and white ripples spread through the air .

Long Chen was covered by those ripples . The white ripples began to rise, bringing Long Chen and Gui Yan into the air, distancing them from the battlefield .

Long Chen didn’t move . He allowed Gui Yan to bring him away . When they finally reached a certain height, the white ripples finally stopped rising .

“This is a broken piece of the ancient battlefield’s divine stage . Although it’s already broken, it can still summon a battle space that others can’t disturb . Even Life Star experts can’t interfere,” said Gui Yan .

“Are you worried about others saving me? Don’t worry, the one to die today will definitely be you . ” Long Chen shook his head .

“Hahaha, how egotistical,” laughed Gui Yan, his voice full of contempt .

“It’s not egotistical . This is simply my confidence . No matter what rank of Celestial you are, as long as we are in the same realm, the one to be defeated will definitely be you . This is the iron law created from the countless life and death battles I’ve experienced,” said Long Chen .

It truly wasn’t egotistical . Up to now, Long Chen had maintained a perfect record against those in the same realm as him . This kind of confidence was the result of trampling over a mountain of corpses of powerful enemies . This confidence could not be shaken .

Although Long Chen had never fought a rank nine Celestial, this confidence still filled his heart . This undefeatable confidence of his was incomparably staunch .

“Hahaha, good, very good . I like this arrogance of yours . Do you know why I would sacrifice a treasure just to isolate you from all the other experts?” asked Gui Yan .

“I don’t . ” Long Chen thought about it . Clearly, Gui Yan had some other goal other than preventing others from saving him .

“I have two goals . One is to let the Righteous and Corrupt experts see me completely crush you, returning all the humiliation you’ve brought to the Corrupt path a hundred times,” said Gui Yan .

“Oh? This dream is not bad . Then I suppose the second goal is related to Leng Yueyan?” asked Long Chen .

“Not bad . Yes, this formation can record our battle . When the time comes, I’ll show Leng Yueyan that the Long Chen she brought up is nothing more than trash,” said Gui Yan, his eyes as sharp as blades .

Long Chen frowned . “I’m curious, why are you set on viewing Leng Yueyan and I together?”

This was something Long Chen was curious about . Based on what Gui Yan had said, Leng Yueyan had only mentioned his name, but Gui Yan hated him so much . His appearance made it seem like he wanted to bite him to death .

“Because I am one of Leng Yueyan’s pursuers,” said Gui Yan coldly .

“That has nothing to do with me . She’s the one who cut you, not me,” said Long Chen .

“Leng Yueyan said that you, Long Chen, are the only real man in her eyes . As for us… as for us… we’re… garbage! Die, you bastard!” Flames were practically spurting from Gui Yan’s eyes, and it was like all his resentment instantly erupted . The nine flowers revolved around him along with his runes . He sent a fist smashing toward Long Chen .

Hearing what Gui Yan said, Long Chen was surprised . He hadn’t expected Leng Yueyan to view him so highly . No wonder Gui Yan looked as angry as if Long Chen had slain his father .

Failing in his pursuit of Leng Yueyan, he ended up being cut in the mouth and cursed as garbage . This was definitely enough reason for a prideful rank nine Celestial to find trouble with Long Chen .

Gui Yan’s punch brought with it immense pressure that made it hard for Long Chen to breathe . It felt like his fist had absorbed all the energy of the world, as if all of heaven and earth were blessing him .

In front of Gui Yan, Long Chen clearly sensed the rejection he felt from heaven and earth intensify .

They were both sons of this world, yet one was given a candy, while the other was slapped in the face . The difference in treatment was immense . That made Long Chen feel even more hatred for the heavens . Four stars suddenly appeared in Long Chen’s eyes, and he also sent out a punch .
