His physical body, speed, dragon's will, as well as the sharp increase of his Divine Energy, had given Long Chen a metamorphosis.
Although he was only at the fourth tier of the Divine Martial Realm, in terms of Divine Energy, which was ten thousand times stronger, he was already equivalent to a martial artist at the sixth tier of the Divine Martial Realm. Adding on the dragon's will, the Yin Yang Sword Soul, and even the Nine Dragons Scripture, the current Long Chen's strength was infinitely close to Su Zhe and Qin Shi, who were the top geniuses of the three Imperial Domains within a hundred years old.
As for Wang Chen, who was within a hundred to a thousand years old, Long Chen would still need some time to catch up. However, the chances of catching up were very high.
Of course, this was all in the future.
As the dragon's shadow hovered, Long Chen gradually revealed a mysterious veil in front of Su Zhe and Qin Shi. Everything returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened. However, in the eyes of Qin Shi and Su Zhe, Long Chen seemed to have become a different person.
Previously, in their eyes, Long Chen was just a martial artist that could be easily crushed by the will of the world. However, the current Long Chen's eyes were like blazing fireballs, revealing a disdainful aura that made people want to worship him. Su Zhe and Qin Shi had an illusion that they discovered that Long Chen was like a creature that was one level higher than them. Even if the Divine Energy in Long Chen's body was not as strong as theirs, they had a natural reverence in their hearts.
Originally, after possessing the will of the world, it was impossible for them to be reverent towards anything.
However, now, even the Earthly Aspect, the miniature of the entire Dragon Sacrificial Continent, was slightly trembling because of Long Chen's existence.
This made Qin Shi and Su Zhe wonder if using the will of the world to deal with Long Chen would still be effective.
From any aspect, after experiencing the short moment just now, Long Chen had become stronger. He was so strong that the two geniuses could feel his mysteriousness.
He slowly opened his eyes.
The divine light contained in his eyes did not seem to belong to the human race, but to a super overlord from the ancient times.
The three of them remained silent for a very long time.
Long Chen was stabilizing the terrifying power he had just obtained. Disregarding everything else, the tyrannical feeling of his physical body had completely surpassed that of Su Zhe's super strong Battle Physique, which had been formed after absorbing the bile of the Myriad Evil Vine.
Soul Eye technique …
The range of the Divine Awareness, which had just entered the fourth level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm, was exactly one mile. However, because of the powerful God Martial Spirit, the range of Long Chen's Divine Awareness had already reached two to three miles. This meant that his Soul Pupil Technique, the Soul-Devouring Demon Pupil, could also be expanded to such a large range.
"So many experts from the Nine Super Clans are watching …"
These people had arrived a long time ago, but Long Chen had only discovered them now. They were still in the forest outside the Holy Tree, watching the final battle in the Holy Tree.
Although Long Chen could only sense their presence and couldn't see their expressions, he knew that Long Chen's breakthrough must have made their expressions very interesting.
This feeling of looking down on all living beings made Long Chen enjoy it very much.
At the same time, he also understood where the strongest power came from. Part of it came from his own undefeatable belief, while the other part came from his protection. The reason he could make a breakthrough here was inextricably related to Li Xuanji. It could also be said that without her, Long Chen would not have been able to make a breakthrough so quickly.
Moreover, he would not have formed the Will of the Dragon that could resist the Will of Heaven and Earth.
If he could not resist the Will of Heaven and Earth, Long Chen would definitely not have the chance to fight against a seventh level Divine Martial Realm expert.
"Don't worry, I'm fine now."
Regardless of whether Li Xuanji could hear him or not, Long Chen still said this to her.
Previously, she did not have much confidence in Long Chen, and even wanted to use the Heart of the Everlasting Protection. However, Long Chen had proven to her through his actions that she would not have the chance to do so.
There was no pride in her heart, only enlightenment.
Long Chen seemed to have somewhat understood where his path forward was.
"Perhaps the path of the Primordial Blood Spiritual Dragon is not the kind of merciless killing that I imagined. As long as it is alive, it has feelings, and it is the same. Its killing is also for protection, for survival."
Merciless slaughter was the behavior of demons. Perhaps the true path of slaughter should be like what Long Chen was thinking right now, which was to protect and survive.
His current understanding was of great help to his future development. It could be said that he had walked from a crooked path back to the right path.
All of this was thanks to Li Xuanji.
"I originally thought that only Xiaoxi could make me feel this, but I didn't expect it to be her …"
Although it was a little funny, Long Chen's feelings for Lingxi would never change.
"Jiang Yunfan …" Qin Shi's pink lips parted slightly, her eyes wavering as she looked at him.
Long Chen also snapped out of his thoughts. He was very grateful to Su Zhe and Qin Shi. They were true warriors, not despicable people. If they were despicable people, they would not have given Long Chen a chance to recover, and they would not have not stopped Long Chen when he was breaking through.
In fact, they were the ones who had pushed for the final breakthrough.
Su Zhe and Qin Shi looked at each other, using their eyes to tell each other that although something unexpected had happened, this battle still had to be fought.
"I admire your change, but we still have to determine the winner today. I hope that after we go down, we can all become friends and exchange martial arts," Su Zhe said.
This was a late battle, but no matter what, they still had to take the test, and it was Long Chen facing both of them at the same time.
In Su Zhe and Qin Shi's opinion, Long Chen was still the person they had to deal with first.
But now, Long Chen no longer felt any pressure.
"Come on," Long Chen said with a smile, full of heroic spirit.
The silver Silver Dragon Spear appeared in Su Zhe's hand. Although its sharp aura could not compare to the Scarlet Blood Desolate Halberd in Long Chen's hand, it was still very good.
As for Qin Shi, she did not use a weapon, but she was the disciple of the Realm Emperor, so she had many tricks up her sleeve.
With the power to resist the will of heaven and earth, Long Chen was no longer afraid. The three of them immediately started fighting, and the flames of battle immediately ignited in the ball of light.
From the first battle, Su Zhe and Qin Shi were shocked to discover that Long Chen's strength was not much different from theirs. Although his Divine Energy was not as good as theirs, Long Chen's physical body and speed were a level higher than theirs. His advantage in speed allowed Long Chen to leave them far behind.
No matter how strong they were, Long Chen was basically the same as them.
"How is this possible? Does he have a method to hide his strength? Just how powerful is his true strength?" This was a question that both Su Zhe and Qin Shi doubted.
They had worked together to fight against Long Chen because Long Chen was weaker than them. They wanted to deal with Long Chen first before focusing on the battle. However, the situation had changed now. After a while, none of them managed to gain the upper hand, so they split up.
"Since brother Jiang is so capable, if the two of us continue like this, it'll seem like we're lacking in bearing. Since it's a chaotic battle, let's fight it to the end. I'd like to see who'll be standing in the end."
Only the last person would decide the opening of the Saints' Fruit. Only then would the experts of the nine clans come to open the ball of light.
The battle had developed into a chaotic battle between the three of them. Each person faced two opponents. Long Chen had never encountered a battle like this before, so it could be said that he felt a lot less pressure. It was also very interesting.
It had gone from a battle of life and death at the beginning to a chaotic battle between the three of them. It was much easier, but their opponents were indeed very powerful.
Even with such a level of cultivation, it was impossible for Long Chen to be as terrifying as when he dealt with the six fighters earlier. Su Zhe and Qin Shi could be described as martial geniuses. They had their own comprehensions, rich battle experience, and even a great foundation.
Su Zhe had fused the will of the world into his Moon Demon Spear Technique. Every move he made was as natural as flowing water and fatal. He was truly a talented person. Qin Shi, on the other hand, had cultivated the Rank Eight Divine Technique, the War Demon Finger Sword. At the same time, she had the War Demon Body, which was almost comparable to the Great Yin Devil Body in the Nine Underworlds. It was because of this War Demon Body that Qin Shi had been able to escape from the icy pond.
At the seventh layer of the God's Martial Arts, everyone's path was extremely mature. Su Zhe fused the Way of the Spear with the Way of the Martial Arts. His attacks were extremely fast, and his strikes were dazzling and beautiful. Although Qin Shi was a woman, she also walked the Way of the Battle. Of course, because of the War Demon Body, her Way of the Battle had its own special characteristics. She was like a mad demon, attacking with no regard for her own life. Her attacks were basically no different from Long Chen's from before.
They were all true experts, so they were not as easy to deal with as the people from before.
However, in the eyes of Qin Shi and Su Zhe, Long Chen was even more terrifying. Fighting against him was like fighting against a primordial beast. His gaze and his will in particular possessed a natural awe to others. It could be said that when Qin Shi and Su Zhe fought against him, they actually felt like retreating.
Su Zhe refused to believe that his will of the world could not deal with Long Chen. At this moment, the power of the Earth Aspect behind him surged into his Silver Dragon Spear. The terrifying might of the world erupted.
"Moon Demon Spear Technique, Samsara of the Moon."
The shining Silver Dragon Spear danced in his hand and gradually formed a silver halo. The halo was faintly flashing with the power of the world's will. At the same time, it was mostly the powerful Divine Energy that belonged to the seventh layer of the God's Martial Arts Realm.
It felt as if a silver full moon had appeared above Long Chen's head and was crashing down with a loud bang.
If it was an ordinary warrior who had not reached the seventh layer of the God's Martial Arts Realm, under such a powerful attack, there would only be one ending, and that was death. Not to mention the Divine Energy contained in the full moon, just the pressure of the world's will alone made it seem as if the whole world was collapsing. In terms of spirit, one would first be defeated by the world's will.
Hiss.
But Long Chen was different.
