Chapter 6371 Laws of Darkness
Cang Lu’s aura spiraled out of control, surging as though he would explode at any moment. Moreover, his scarlet eyes blazed with madness, making him look like a feral beast.
“Today, even if I have to cripple my Dao foundation, I will rip you to pieces!” Cang Lu’s roar shook the heavens, his killing intent exploding like a bomb.
Within his manifestation, the black spider convulsed. Endless streams of black qi gushed out, its power comparable to that of a Divine Sovereign.
“Oh, this is something good!” Evilmoon shouted excitedly.
Without waiting for Long Chen’s command, countless Evilmoon blades surged forward, piercing toward the black spider.
“Hey, wait!”
Long Chen was alarmed, but Evilmoon had already made its move.
“Fool!” Cang Lu sneered, his expression twisted with contempt. “This is my dark manifestation, a projection of my faith to the Dark Master! It has no true form, so you can’t stop it! Just wait for death!”
Cang Lu completely ignored Evilmoon’s attack and brandished the Bloodfiend Halberd. At this time, it emitted a powerful rumbling. The boost in dark qi caused this terrifying divine weapon to release its true might, and a ferocious pressure locked onto Long Chen.
“Die!” Cang Lu launched himself forward like an arrow loosed from a divine bow.
But just then, the black spider was skewered by millions of Evilmoons, turning it into a grotesque hedgehog.
In an instant, Cang Lu’s body froze. The madness in his eyes abruptly cleared, replaced by dread. It was like a bucket of ice water had doused him.
Turning his head in horror, he saw black qi coiling around the Evilmoon blades. Worse, he could sense them devouring the dark energy within the black spider’s body.
“How can this be possible?!” Cang Lu’s scream echoed with disbelief and outrage.
This manifestation was a projection of the Dark Master’s power—the dark energy personally bestowed upon Cang Lu. Even though he could only summon a trace of it due to his limited cultivation base, it was still a force capable of annihilating anyone beneath the Divine Sovereign realm.
However, these sabers could ignore that law and devour its energy. Cang Lu could feel his strength bleeding away, faster and faster.
“Fuck off!” Cang Lu howled.
For the moment, Cang Lu could not even spare Long Chen any attention. Forming rapid hand seals, he lit up the black spider with dark sigils. A tide of black qi surged outward, causing the Evilmoon blades to quiver violently, as if they were about to be expelled.
However, before he could act further, starlight erupted. A massive hand descended toward him.
“Dark Wall!”
Cang Lu’s priority was to get rid of the Evilmoons stealing his power, so he just summoned a wall to counter Long Chen.
This Dark Wall looked like it was made of unbreakable steel, giving off a heavy aura that would make anyone else give up any thoughts of breaking it.
But just as the wall materialized, a radiant cross blazed in Long Chen’s palm.
Astral energy flooded into the cross, and Long Chen’s hand trembled violently as blood mist seeped into it. With the Starry Sky Battle Robe reinforcing him, Long Chen’s body was pushed beyond its natural limits.
“Sovereign Blood Seal—God Slaying Cross!”
BOOM!
The impregnable Dark Wall shattered like paper before a storm, and the shockwave sent Cang Lu flying back, blood spraying from his mouth.
In that instant, he realized he had made a fatal mistake—splitting his power. He had tried to stop Long Chen while also getting rid of Evilmoon.
And the insidious Long Chen had baited him into it. At first, his palm strike had seemed ordinary, but it was just a simple feint meant to trick Cang Lu.
When Cang Lu summoned the wall, even ten times the strength in Long Chen’s hand wouldn’t have been enough to shake it. But the instant that defense appeared, Long Chen unleashed his true technique.
To increase his power so drastically at such close range, and in so little time, defied the common sense of the martial path. But that was exactly the trap.
Knowing this, Cang Lu raised his defense on instinct, while Long Chen had already predicted that reaction and prepared a bait.
In truth, Long Chen hadn’t suddenly increased his power. There had never been enough time for that. He had simply condensed the Sovereign Blood Seal in advance and cloaked it beneath his astral energy, hiding its true force until the perfect moment.
As Cang Lu hacked up blood, Long Chen arrived in front of him.
With a wave of his hand, a saber appeared in his grip. Spinning with his momentum, he slashed down, and a crescent of blood-colored light howled toward Cang Lu.
BOOM!
Cang Lu hurriedly blocked with the Bloodfiend Halberd. The saber exploded on impact, while Long Chen was sent tumbling back.
When Long Chen steadied himself, he found his hands torn and bloody. While the God Slaying Cross was powerful, the Starry Sky Battle Robe’s power wasn’t something he could control at this time. He injured his right hand just by using it.
Then, Long Chen unleashed the saber slash with his left hand, yet the flood of dark energy backing Cang Lu nearly blew it apart. Now, both his hands were broken and bleeding, the damage so severe that even the primal chaos space could not heal them instantly.
Wreathed in this dreadful power, Cang Lu was now an existence beyond anyone in his realm. Even so, Long Chen was fearless. Raising his hand, he drew another Evilmoon into his grip.
A sharp killing intent locked onto Cang Lu. With a flash, Long Chen lunged, his blade sweeping toward his enemy’s neck.
Cang Lu gritted his teeth. Ignoring the saber, he unleashed a storm of blows at Long Chen, choosing to cut him down first.
Evilmoon after Evilmoon exploded in Long Chen’s hands. Yet, even under this onslaught, Long Chen could slip between strikes, dodging with phantom-like precision.
The truth was that Long Chen was using the sabers’ explosions to bleed off some of Cang Lu’s power. That way, he wasn’t injured badly.
“You coward! Do you only know how to run around like a rat?!” Cang Lu roared, his fury unrestrained after so many failed attempts to land a single blow.
“No, I’m not a rat. I’m just an ant,” Long Chen responded as he continued to dodge.
Cang Lu then realized that this method wouldn’t work. While he was attacking Long Chen, Evilmoon was like a leech absorbing the energy of his manifestation.
Cang Lu felt like he was going crazy. In this short time, half of his dark energy had already vanished.
“Laws of darkness—merge!” Cang Lu bellowed.
The black spider behind him dissolved. His body swelled, releasing a majestic aura so overwhelming that it flung Long Chen and the countless Evilmoon blades away.
Long Chen tensed, preparing to defend. But before he could move, Cang Lu’s roar shook the battlefield.
“Damn you, Long Chen! Just you wait!”
In the next instant, Cang Lu’s massive figure detonated. Amid the storm of flying Grand Dao runes, his presence vanished without a trace.
