It had no side effects, and it could burn the enemy's Nirvana energy, causing the enemy's strength to regress. This was the heaven-defying power of the Spirit Refining Flame.
It could be said that the ferocity and power of the Ancient Blood Spiritual Dragon was completely revealed after the Spirit Refining Flame. Its rule was to kill, and no one could compare to it.
There was nothing more terrifying than having one's strength regress. Even if they were killed, they wouldn't have to experience such a nightmare.
At this time, Su Yuchen, who had fallen to the ground, had been burnt black by the Spirit Refining Flame. He rolled on the ground, howling in pain. On one hand, it was physical pain, and on the other hand, it was spiritual pain. He could clearly feel the strength in his body dissipating.
That was the strength that he had painstakingly cultivated for …
"Long Chen …" Su Yuchen was still conscious. In extreme pain, he hurriedly stood up and looked at Long Chen with his burnt face. He said in disbelief, "You actually have a demonic technique. You deserve to die, my Nirvana energy … I'm going to tell my father and ask him to kill you on the spot, you bastard."
Long Chen said, "You can't do it yourself, so you have to look for your father. It seems that no matter what, the real trash is still you. Is this the so-called god's descendant?" Su Yuchen coughed a few times.
Su Yuchen coughed a few times. He retreated while laughing loudly, as if his throat was about to be torn apart. He said, "You killed a descendant of one of the 18 branch families, and even caused my cultivation to regress. Such evil deeds, even if you become my Third Uncle's adopted son, you will still suffer the harsh family laws. Long Chen, you will definitely be crippled. Just watch, your fate will be much worse than mine. With your lowly bloodline, you still dare to fight me?"
Suffering such a crushing defeat, and to such a small fry, was a heavy blow to Su Yuchen. His mind was in a state of complete chaos, and his eyes were bloodshot.
His Nirvana Force had already regressed back to the seventh stage of the Nirvana Tribulation Realm. Although this kind of injury could be made up with a huge amount of precious immortal essence, it could also cause his foundation to be damaged, and he would not be able to face the next stage of the Nirvana Tribulation. Even if he could face it, there would already be a hole in his foundation, and he would need a lot of time to recuperate. He would definitely be left behind by others.
Therefore, Su Yuchen's desire for all of this was just a dream …
His hands trembled as he pointed at Long Chen. He was very confused. Under such circumstances, Long Chen could still remain calm.
Long Chen could vaguely feel the arrival of many warriors. Moreover, they were all powerhouses of the War God Inner City. The three branch family youths had already gone back to report. With their speed, they should have arrived by now.
For Long Chen, this was the truly exciting moment.
Hu hu.
A large number of powerhouses broke through the air and descended above the two of them. These people were not only from the dead disciple's family, but also other people who heard the news and came to watch. In a short period of time, there were more than a hundred people gathered above the two of them. They were the real Su family members of the War God Inner City.
Long Chen had just caused a sensation in the War God Inner City and obtained Su Zhen's protection. He didn't expect that in such a short period of time, there would be another big event related to him. In fact, for every Divine Descendant in the Ancient City, every Divine Descendant was extremely important. It was difficult for them to reproduce, and a child with a high concentration of Divine Descendant's bloodline was a treasure to them. They were extremely protective of the lives of their own people, even to the point of madness. It was rumored that the destruction of the Ethereal Immortal Sect was because the people of the Immortal Sect killed the Divine Descendant.
And this time, the news was that a person from one of the 18 branch families had been killed by Long Chen.
There were more than a hundred branch families of the Martial God Bloodline, but only 18 of them could be called the 18 branch families. The 18 branch families were not fixed. Every thousand years or so, all the branch families would be selected according to the strength and foundation of each family. The 18 strongest families would be called the 18 branch families. It was rumored that the 18 branch families could occupy the ancient treasures left behind by the 18 Martial Gods.
It was normal for a person like Su Yuchen to be together with a descendant of the 18 branch families. After all, only the ancestral family was the strongest.
The people who came looked at all this in shock.
Many people knew that Long Chen had just survived the Hellfire Flame Star Behemoth. With his talent as a dragon warrior, he might not have reached the sixth level of the Nirvana Tribulation Realm. Such a person should not have too strong a combat strength. After all, he was too young and his cultivation level was too low.
Therefore, even if Su Zhen let him be his adopted son, he did not receive any attention in terms of strength. As for the arranged battle with Su Yuyao, everyone only treated it as a joke.
However, when they heard that a seventh level Nirvana Tribulation Realm late stage disciple of the Su Clan was actually killed by Long Chen, and that Long Chen was now fighting with Su Yuchen, the monstrous genius of the ancestral family, there was no need to mention how wonderful the expressions on everyone's faces were.
They came to the scene with shock and doubt in their hearts.
And when they saw Su Yuchen struggling in front of Long Chen, they looked at each other in dismay. They could not believe their eyes, and even more could not believe that the usually confident Su Yuchen would actually become like this.
The current Su Yuchen, the word 'miserable' could not describe it.
The difference between this reality and the ideal in their hearts was too great.
Before coming, they had already imagined the scene of Long Chen being captured by Su Yuchen. In their hearts, they had never thought that Su Yuchen would be defeated. To them, this was something impossible …
For a period of time, everyone was helpless.
When many people saw Su Yuchen's condition, they knew that this matter would definitely be blown out of proportion.
"A bunch of trash, what are you all still standing there for? This Long Chen dared to slaughter the descendants of the Martial God and even heavily injured me. This is a provocation to all the descendants of the Martial God. Quickly kill him, quickly!"
Su Yuchen collapsed to the ground as he howled hysterically.
Everyone woke up from their stupor, feeling the same hatred for a common enemy.
Someone saw that Su Yuchen was heavily injured and had already gone back to report to the Zong Clan. This matter was even more serious than they had imagined.
More and more people arrived.
At this moment, a huge amount of killing intent surged over from the inner city. Long Chen knew that the real trouble had arrived. He inclined his head and saw about seven or eight people. All of them were middle-aged men, radiating killing intent and terrifying combat prowess. Although they were not at the Samsara Realm, all of them were at the peak of the Nirvana Tribulation Realm.
These people should be from the clan of the deceased, one of the 18 branch clans.
Their eyes filled with hatred instantly locked onto Long Chen.
Without saying a word, under the command of a middle-aged man who was in the lead, they moved to surround Long Chen. When they surrounded Long Chen, they didn't make a move. The eyes of the majestic-looking man clad in purple were bloodshot. He gritted his teeth and spoke, "You are Long Chen, the one who killed my son."
Behind him, Su Yuchen malevolently spoke, "Su Baizhan, that's right, you are the one who slaughtered your son. I saw it with my own eyes, and the other three also saw it with their own eyes. There's no need to ask any more questions. This kind of outsider actually dares to touch the descendants of the Martial God? Just do it. As a father, how can you endure the fact that your son was killed?"
Under Su Yuchen's instigation, Su Baizhan's entire body was already trembling.
He breathed heavily, resembling a gigantic beast that blotted out the sky. The air he breathed out was sufficient to cause the surrounding rocks to tremble.
Long Chen roughly understood that this fellow's strength should be on the same level as Su Yuji.
This kind of opponent was still too difficult for Long Chen.
However, he had his own plans, so he wouldn't be intimidated by this kind of situation.
As for the matter of killing his son, Long Chen couldn't figure out the changes in the God Slaying Sword. This wasn't something he had to consider, but rather something unexpected. For now, he could only act according to the circumstances.
Many times, misfortune turned out to be a blessing in disguise. This wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Su Baizhan lowered his voice and asked, "Long Chen, considering that you are Young Master Su Zhen's adopted son, I'll give you a chance to explain yourself. The hatred of my son's death is absolutely irreconcilable. You have to explain yourself properly."
By the time he finished speaking, his expression had already become very sinister.
The other members of his family also had faces full of hatred.
Long Chen said indifferently, "Everyone has to be responsible for their own decisions. He decided to follow Su Yuchen to bully and provoke me, and he decided to kill my beloved. In that kind of urgent situation, if I hadn't accidentally killed him, I'm afraid I would have regretted it even more."
He was speaking the truth, so he didn't do anything wrong.
Su Baizhan clenched his fists, releasing the purest martial aura belonging to the Martial God's bloodline. He was different from the other nobles. At a glance, one could tell that he was the kind of person who had experienced hundreds of battles and had truly forged super combat strength and lethality. This kind of person was even more terrifying.
"Since that's the case, as a father, I can't let my son die in vain."
Long Chen had expected that the other party would lose his reason and attack.
The moment the other party attacked, his body ignited with the Spirit Refinement Flame.
Seeing this flame, Su Yuchen felt like he had seen a nightmare. He screamed, "Quickly retreat!"
Su Yuchen's warning made Su Baizhan hesitate for a moment. The flame in front of him completely disappeared, and at the same time, Long Chen also disappeared.
That's right, Long Chen used the Spirit Refinement Flame and escaped into the long river of time, using the Time Dragon.
He quickly swam out of the encirclement and hid in a corner. He couldn't escape from the Ancient City of Martial God, because Su Zhen's level restricted his freedom. However, he also couldn't let Su Baizhan kill him.
Before the real big shots arrived, Long Chen chose not to show himself.
He wanted to wait for Su Zhen to arrive and see how this guy would defend himself.
"Where did he go?"
Everyone present was even more shocked.
He had just survived the Hellfire Flame Star Behemoth. No wonder he dared to be so calm in front of everyone. It turned out that he still had such a magical method.
Even Su Baizhan completely lost sight of Long Chen's figure. He turned around sluggishly and glanced around.
