Chapter 7240 A Dark Son of the New Generation

Long Chen’s expression remained calm, even now that he was standing in front of this powerful outsider expert.

The man had revealed immense power, and the blazing aura he radiated was something no one around had ever felt. Meanwhile, no one was able to sense anything like that from Long Chen. He had not summoned a manifestation or released his Blood Qi, and he simply stood there like a completely ordinary person.

Yet this completely ordinary person gave off the feeling of a majestic, immovable mountain.

“Is this the aura of the number one heavenly genius of the human race?”

The experts of the nine heavens, especially the disciples behind Miao Yin, felt their blood boil. They knew that they were about to truly see a battle of those at the very peak.

This mysterious man possessed the Grand Dao power of two worlds. His strength was beyond the bounds of common sense. Had it not been for the interference of a hidden Heavenly Sovereign, he would have killed everyone here all on his own. Yet despite witnessing this, Long Chen remained completely calm. Only a true expert could possibly do that. Every single gesture revealed the confidence he had in his own strength.

The black-robed man laughed in response. “The number one heavenly genius of the human race? That’s just bait that the Brahma line threw out to get you killed. Do you really think that you’ve reached the peak of power in this world?”

You think I should stop wearing black? You think I can’t pull it off? Is there something wrong with your brain?

Furthermore, Long Chen had made this wild statement when the black-robed man had just unleashed all his power and was looking down on everyone. The mockery almost made him explode.

Long Chen smirked. “My power might not be at the peak of this world, but it sure is plenty if I have to deal with you!”

The black-robed man sneered in response. “Big words! Then let me see how you deal with me!”

What people found curious was that despite the black-robed man’s anger, he wasn’t attacking. Was this really the same overwhelming foe that they had just fought?

Long Chen slowly raised a hand and snapped his fingers.

Golden light slowly spread from him. Under this light, a massive law formation made of countless tiny runes was revealed, with the black-robed man at its center. Long Chen was standing at the very edge of the formation; with just one more step, he would be inside of it.

The spectators couldn’t help gasping when they saw this. They had no idea that this black-robed man had been setting up a trap. That was why he hadn’t directly attacked!

Miao Yin and Zi Yan were also surprised—even they hadn’t sensed this formation. It seemed that the man’s manifestation had thrown the laws around him into disarray, causing even their senses to fail. As for the formation itself, the sight of it gave them an intense sensation of danger. To them, it looked like a devil’s maw. Those who entered had no chance of leaving alive.

“You really are a coward. You used the laws of two worlds to set up this formation. Tell me, if you’re this afraid of dying, why don’t you just run?” asked Long Chen.

“You...” The black-robed man was shocked that Long Chen could sense it, and then, Long Chen’s mockery made him fume.

He was truly a peak heavenly genius, and he truly did not fear Long Chen. But just to be safe, he had still chosen to secretly set up a formation. The purpose of it was to guarantee that Long Chen wouldn’t be able to flee after losing.

Although he was confident in beating Long Chen, he wasn’t sure he could kill him; this was quite a common issue, so it made sense for him to do something in preparation. But now that the formation was exposed, it was practically a proclamation that he was so afraid of Long Chen that he had no choice but to scheme against him. Long Chen’s mockery made things worse—he had no argument against it, and no matter what he said, it would only make him look more like a coward.

He gnashed his teeth furiously. He waved his hand, and the formation disappeared. “I don’t need a formation to kill you!”

“Then why set it up in the first place? Who are you trying to convince, your own dad?” said Long Chen contemptuously.

This fellow was clearly not skilled at lying. Of course, with his power, he didn’t need to lie. The moment he tried to bullshit his way out, he was exposed.

The black-robed man finally lost his cool. He furiously slammed a hand at Long Chen, and at that moment, the space around Long Chen became a domain trapping him. Black and violet qi wrapped around him like chains.

“Divine ring, eight gates!”

Countless stars seemed to burst out of Long Chen, and the black-annd-violet domain was instantly swallowed by the torrent of stars. A starry river charged into the heavens, and a sea of stars appeared in the sky. The eight-color divine ring rose. The eight astral gates once more opened, and Long Chen’s aura surged with it.

The black-robed man’s hand projection slammed into the divine ring and eight gates and simply crumbled in front of everyone’s shocked gazes, dispersing into a wave of runes that flew out in every direction. It looked frightening, but there was no power remaining in it.

This man’s attack had been strong enough to kill everyone, yet it had been easily repelled by nothing more than Long Chen’s aura! Both friend and foe were stunned.

Long Chen stood there in starry battle armor. Countless star diagrams moved on top of the armor,and Grand Dao runes flowed through the air, making him appear like a war god of the starry sky.

People looked at the star-studded sky and from there to the god-like Long Chen. Was this the power of the human race’s number one genius?

No one cheered. In front of this terrifying power, they felt like prostrating on the ground was the wisest choice.

“You are a new-generation Dark Son! Am I wrong?” commented Long Chen casually.

When they heard this, everyone from the nine heavens was shocked. A Dark Son was an heir to the Dark Master’s will! Among the outsider devils, this was a supreme status!

The black-robed man finally recovered from his shock. He coldly said, “You’re quite sharp. Howev—”

Pow!

He wasn’t even done speaking when Long Chen appeared in front of him like a phantom, and a large hand slapped him in the face.

“Answer the question!”
