Chapter 6886 Battling a Discarnate Soul
“A wisp of a Heavenly Sovereign’s discarnate soul possessing an incredibly weak body, who allowed you to behave arrogantly before me? Do you not see that I created this opportunity simply because I was waiting for you?” Long Chen asked.
Long Chen looked at the possessed Yan Sheng without any shock or dismay. It seemed like he had expected all of this.
However, the spectators hadn’t seen this coming. Only now did they understand why Long Chen hadn’t used his full strength against Yan Sheng right away. He had slowly pressured Yan Sheng, waiting for the outsider devil to take over.
“Waiting for me?” the possessed Yan Sheng repeated, looking surprised.
“What else? I could have just killed him at the start with a single slap instead of wasting my time.”
“Why would you be waiting for me?” the possessed Yan Sheng asked, sensing something off.
Long Chen replied, “Certainly, the goal is to end this battle once and for all. After you fought the senior from the nine heavens, both of you perished, but your wills persisted. You continued to fight as discarnate spirits. The Deep Earth Sect targeted both of you, but our senior saw that their intentions were impure and refused to cooperate. Meanwhile, you were eager to scheme against them.
“Now, with Yan Sheng’s body, you've slain the Deep Earth Sect’s experts who tapped into your energy, turning them into resources for your rebirth. The Heavenly Sovereign power you're unleashing is just to intimidate us. Once that's done, you'll erase the remaining will of our senior, ultimately winning this battle that has spanned countless eras.”
After hearing this, everyone realized that it was true. The devil hadn’t killed them right away after taking over Yan Sheng. Instead, it used its aura to frighten them. Its real goal was the will of the earth-attribute expert from the nine heavens. Long Chen seemed to see through all its plans.
“I didn’t expect the human race to produce such a sharp-eyed individual. If you grow up, you would definitely be a thorn in our side. It seems that killing you is even more important than eliminating that person’s will.”
Yan Sheng suddenly extended his hand. The earth exploded, and a black halberd flew toward him.
Devil qi poured out of the halberd. This weapon from the Devil Dao had killed many powerful experts from the nine heavens. When the halberd landed in Yan Sheng’s hand, it crackled loudly. Black rust fell away, showing the fierce runes underneath.
“What a terrifying aura...!”
As the halberd’s aura spread, everyone felt as if their souls would be pulled in.
“Today, I will definitely kill you first!” Yan Sheng roared, and the ground beneath his feet exploded.
He suddenly appeared right in front of Long Chen. His black halberd swung with a whooshing sound, which resembled the wail of a vengeful ghost.
“Big words. The elder of my human race could kill you once, so how could I afford to lose?” Long Chen snorted.
The Earth Dao essence rune shone brightly on Long Chen’s forehead as violet flames soared into the sky. A fist with a cross on top collided with the halberd, causing violet flames and devil qi to rage fiercely, tearing the world apart.
Yan Sheng was pushed back several steps.
“I refuse to believe I can’t defeat you! How dare a small Sovereign Lord be arrogant before me?” Yan Sheng shouted loudly, his body flashing rapidly like a lightning bolt, leaving afterimages in his wake.
His speed was so incredible that observers couldn’t track him.
“Today, I will show you how vast the heavens are!” he shouted.
“You’re just a discarnate soul. If my ancestor could kill you, then I, Long Chen, can do the same!”
Long Chen’s fists danced as he unleashed his combat skills. He repeatedly struck that terrifying halberd with his bare fists.
As Long Chen and Yan Sheng fought, powerful qi waves tore through the sky. The disciples, frozen by the devil’s aura, were thrown back and coughed up blood.
Fortunately, thanks to Long Chen fighting Yan Sheng, that terrifying Sovereign might faded. The disciples could move again and ran for their lives.
Now, only the likes of Zheng Wenlong, Li Chenggang, as well as Yue Tianming, Chi Yunfeng, and the other double manifestation Divine Sovereigns could remain in their spots.
Chi Yutong, Xin Yu, and the others were hiding behind them. With some of the pressure blocked, things were easier for them.
“Not good. This fellow’s aura is growing stronger and stronger!” exclaimed a disciple from the Calligraphy Sect.
“He’s getting stronger because he’s absorbing the energy of the Deep Earth Sect’s experts during this fight. He’s also getting used to his new power,” Li Chenggang explained.
BOOM!
The two of them were suddenly blown back.
“Not bad. But it’s over now!” Yan Sheng roared, raising his halberd.
The next moment, the world darkened, and black lightning converged onto his halberd.
Long Chen looked carefully and said, “I understand. So, after your invasion, you altered the world's laws. Now, the Heavenly Daos are in disarray. Yin and Yang are reversed; distinctions between right and wrong are blurred. You are now free to openly harness the power of the Heavenly Daos.”
“So what if you know? You foolish lifeforms of the nine heavens and ten lands, you no longer stand a chance to resist. All that's left is to wait for death in terror!” Yan Sheng laughed maliciously.
He swung his halberd down, unleashing a giant halberd-image that ripped apart the world.
In the face of this attack, even double manifestation Divine Sovereigns felt despair. Most terrifying of all was the will of a Heavenly Sovereign behind this blow. It crushed any will to resist, and most people could only close their eyes and wait for death.
“You think so?” Long Chen snorted.
Suddenly, he slammed his hands together, with the Heaven Dao rune on his left hand and the Earth Dao rune on his right hand. All his violet blood energy and Supreme Blood energy erupted simultaneously.
“Three Pillar Shield!”
BOOM!
Heaven and earth shuddered. The power of the ten thousand Daos converged into a shield in front of Long Chen.
That giant halberd-image slammed into the shield forcefully. The shield shuddered, but it remained intact. On the other hand, the halberd-image shattered.
“How... how is that possible?!” Yan Sheng exclaimed, stunned. The force of the backlash shook him deeply.
Long Chen formed another series of hand seals as the power of Heaven and Earth combined. Suddenly, a translucent figure manifested behind him.
“Little brother, thank you for awakening me!”
