Nangong Lie was a battle-hungry person. Regardless of whether the opponent was stronger or weaker than him, Nangong Lie's blood would boil with excitement as long as there was something special about the opponent. Long Chen's performance, the Thousand Slaughter, had aroused Nangong Lie's desire to fight.
Among the millions of Sacred Martial Palace disciples, Long Chen was the only one who could complete the Thousand Slaughter. Judging from his performance, it was possible for him to complete the Ten Thousand Slaughter.
More and more people gathered there. The millions of people who had dispersed earlier had almost all gathered in a short time. No matter what happened today, Long Chen would basically become the legend of the Sacred Martial Palace. This was the most high-profile time for Long Chen. Millions of people looked at him in shock. At this moment, Long Chen actually accepted Nangong Lie's invitation to fight.
The huge uproar created a huge shock. It was like the rumbling of thunder, causing everyone's ears to ring. Everyone's gazes were fixated on the youth in the center. Everyone was fantasizing about their heroic moment. However, they had no choice but to admit that when they faced Nangong Lie, they were so scared that their legs almost turned to jelly. There weren't many who could be as calm as Long Chen.
Many people, like Gong Zheng, had struggled in the Sacred Martial Palace for hundreds of years but still didn't have the opportunity to enter the True Martial Imperial Palace. Some people only needed one day. That was the difference. In everyone's eyes, as long as Long Chen survived the battle with Nangong Lie, he would definitely enter the True Martial Imperial Palace.
This was the reason why Long Chen was so high-profile.
In the eyes of the crowd, Nangong Lie's beast-like aura gave him a lot of deterrence. It was like a towering mountain towering in front of him, suffocating him. The pride in Long Chen's bloodline didn't allow him to be easily overwhelmed by Nangong Lie. Therefore, his strong spine was always standing firm.
"Your realm is far beyond mine. Tell me, what are the rules of the battle?"
In front of a super major power like Nangong Lie, Long Chen was neither servile nor overbearing. He knew that Nangong Lie would not use divine essence to bully him. That kind of battle would be too meaningless.
"What courage."
Nangong Lie's fanatical gaze revealed a look of approval. He thought that Long Chen would be scared witless. To be able to live until now, Nangong Lie was also a wily old fox. At this moment, he let out a thunderous laugh and said, "We don't need to use Divine Essence. I can see that your physical body is abnormally strong. Let's just use our physical strength to have a head-on clash. I will suppress my strength to the same level as yours."
"Alright."
Both of them were well aware of the purpose of the battle. Long Chen knew that he didn't need to say anything. Nangong Lie already knew his intention. That was the True Martial Emperor Palace. Accompanying Nangong Lie in this battle was probably paying the tuition fee. For someone like Nangong Lie who was addicted to battle, fighting with him was like making friends with him.
Long Chen was still too young. He didn't have the advantage in terms of physical strength. Therefore, Nangong Lie didn't dare to be careless. At this time, those who were defeated by Long Chen's Thousand Slaughter had already fled in embarrassment. It was very likely that the Seven Saint Gang would cease to exist after today. Even if they still existed, they wouldn't be able to raise their heads in front of others. They wouldn't be able to be arrogant anymore. Their resistance was originally lax. After being warned by Long Chen, it would be strange if they could survive.
Long Chen retreated a few steps. After distancing himself from the battle, Nangong Lie couldn't bear it anymore. He raised his head and roared like a wild beast. The earth trembled. Nangong Lie turned into a long line of flames and instantly rushed towards Long Chen. His strong arms were drenched in sweat as he condensed terrifying power.
Compared to Nangong Lie, Long Chen could only be considered as small arms and legs.
However, Long Chen's battle will wasn't inferior to Nangong Lie at all. This was probably what Nangong Lie valued the most about Long Chen.
Nangong Lie's terrifying physical body was like a wild beast. Rumbling sounds could be heard as a huge mountain pressed down on Long Chen. The sky was falling and the earth was cracking. The might of a single punch was so terrifying.
This was a contest without any Battle Skills. It was a contest of physical strength, speed, and reaction speed. Nangong Lie would not take advantage of Long Chen, so his physical strength and speed were the same as Long Chen's. This was a test of their reaction speed.
Long Chen remained calm. His eyes erupted with sword-like radiance. This punch and kick required calmness the most. Being calm was the best way to fight.
"Ha!"
Long Chen easily dodged Nangong Lie's punch. The golden lightning took a detour and disappeared. In an instant, he rushed behind Nangong Lie. Facing Nangong Lie's incomparably broad shoulders and wild muscles, Long Chen didn't say a word. He kicked towards Nangong Lie's lower body ruthlessly. The reason why he did this was because Long Chen knew that with Nangong Lie's strength, it was impossible for him to hurt him.
Of course, Nangong Lie wouldn't be hit so easily.
As soon as the battle between the two of them started, the intensity of the following battle exceeded the imaginations of millions of people. The most terrifying thing was that Long Chen wasn't sent flying by Nangong Lie's attack like the other warriors. Instead, he engaged in a fierce battle with Nangong Lie. In a short period of time, due to their strong physical bodies, the earth shook and the mountains swayed. The Sacred Martial Square directly cracked under their fists and a huge crack appeared.
Long Chen was incomparably shocked. This guy's body was too strong. When he fought with Nangong Lie's hands, it was like using his body to collide with steel. Long Chen's arms were now swollen. Blood-red dragon scales appeared, increasing Long Chen's defense.
Bang.
"Haha, where can you hide?"
Nangong Lie entered a very excited state. He would never feel tired. To him, fighting was a kind of pleasure. It was very dangerous to fight with such a person. Although Long Chen wasn't addicted to fighting, he had another kind of tenacity.
No matter how crazy Nangong Lie's attacks were, he was still calm. In terms of agility, Long Chen had a slight advantage. Although it seemed that Long Chen was constantly escaping from his opponent's attacks, so far, Long Chen hadn't been hit by his opponent even once.
Even if he was hit, Long Chen could rely on the strength of his body to dissipate the opponent's attack.
The earth-shattering sound kept reverberating. In the eyes of the crowd, a blood-red figure and another tall and sturdy figure were constantly fighting. Every time they exchanged blows, the crowd's hearts were in their throats.
Towards the end of the battle, the dragon scales on Long Chen's body appeared to protect his body.
"His appearance is not bad."
Nangong Lie smiled approvingly. His hands moved faster. At the beginning, he used pure strength to attack. In the following battles, Nangong Lie used his own martial arts. The Divine Martial Realm was to cultivate one's own martial arts. Judging from Nangong Lie's situation, his martial arts and Long Chen's martial arts were similar. Nangong Lie's martial arts were constantly fighting, crazily fighting, stimulating his own potential, while Long Chen's cold-blooded killing.
A blood-red aura spread out from Long Chen's body.
"Martial arts …"
In terms of martial arts, Nangong Lie was Long Chen's senior. Therefore, when he launched his mysterious martial arts, Long Chen almost couldn't hold on with the same body and speed. Martial arts was a kind of spiritual mystery. It couldn't be explained with words. Long Chen could only seize the opponent's spirit bit by bit from Nangong Lie's display.
"This young man hasn't been defeated yet."
"Who the hell is he? He's so terrifying."
"He has almost annihilated the Seven Saints Gang, but he still managed to hold on for such a long time under the attack of Senior Martial Addict. He is really a monster. I bet his strength is definitely higher than the second level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm that we have seen."
Millions of people were talking about it. Long Chen had become famous today. As soon as he arrived here, everyone in the Sacred Martial Palace knew who he was.
At this moment, Long Chen was forced to retreat again and again. He was only able to persist by relying on his willpower.
He would definitely lose to Nangong Lie in the end. After all, Long Chen estimated that Nangong Lie was at least in the Eighth Lv Divine Martial Realm, or even a super expert in the Ninth Lv Divine Martial Realm.
This was his intuition.
Logically speaking, there was no reason for such an expert to be here. Not only the Martial Addict, but also the Drunkard seemed a bit strange. Long Chen had an intuition that these two people were very strong, so strong that they shouldn't appear in a place like the True Martial Imperial Palace. As for why they appeared here, it was their secret.
Nangong Lie's martial arts cultivation was of great help to Long Chen. In this extremely tough battle, Long Chen quietly opened the True Martial Imperial Soul and absorbed everything from Nangong Lie. He was worried that Nangong Lie would know about the True Martial Imperial Soul, so he opened it carefully.
Even so, Nangong Lie's help in martial arts was too great.
After dodging his opponent's attacks countless times, Long Chen's comprehension of martial arts advanced by leaps and bounds. He was heading toward the Completion of the Second Lv Divine Martial Realm. Only when he reached the Completion would he have a chance to reach the Third Lv, the Celestial Realm.
When the True Martial Emperor Soul was activated, Long Chen entered into a mysterious battle state. In this state, he felt that he didn't need to think and could make the most accurate response to dodge or block the opponent's attack, and then give the opponent an even more terrifying attack.
The power contained in each of Long Chen's punches was not much weaker than Nangong Lie's.
"Hiss."
Nangong Lie had reached the peak of excitement. His eyes were blood red, and he let out a roar. He suppressed his strength to the same level as Long Chen, otherwise, he would have already killed Long Chen.
