In Long Chen's eyes, the Primeval Troll had gradually become a beast that only had great strength and divine might, but low intelligence.
Even the Demon Race, the Sea Race, and the Wizard Race were much smarter than the Primeval Troll.
Every time, he was so arrogant that he almost succeeded.
But every time, in reality, Long Chen was constantly improving in his spiritual attack, but he completely concealed it, causing the Primeval Troll to think that he was just a little bit away.
This process kept repeating.
Although Long Chen's progress was very small to him, in reality, even if others spent hundreds or thousands of years, they might not be able to achieve such a small improvement as he had.
Just as the Primeval Troll said, he was a genius that was ten thousand times stronger than the Moon Demon and the Zero Demon. He was the possessor of the strongest talent that had been born in thousands of years, excluding the Gods and Demons.
Cultivation, especially at the peak, required tens of thousands of years to achieve the power to destroy the world. Originally, there was a time limit of a thousand years, but the Dragon Emperor and the others had to use secret techniques to extend their lives.
Long Chen had already experienced close to half a year since he reached the late stage of the Seven Stars Tribulation. During this period of time, he had always been sharpened by the Primeval Troll. He had endured and trained himself again, all so that one day, he could fulfill the promise and oath in his heart and complete the task of protecting the Dragon Sacrifice. At the same time, he could also prove himself to Mo Xiaolang.
The next day, the Primeval Troll had recovered to a very good state. With great ambition, he invaded again, wanting to take advantage of this time to completely control Long Chen and make Long Chen his puppet. What he did not know was that the current him did not have this qualification at all. After being imprisoned for thousands of years, and his will doppelganger had been swallowed by Long Chen, in terms of the spiritual level, he was already very weak to Long Chen.
If not for the fact that he still had the unattainable power of the Giant Demon and the divine might that could easily destroy the world, Long Chen would not have suffered so much in his hands!
After failing, the huge beast roared angrily again, gnashing his teeth!
"If you continue to resist stubbornly like this, there will come a day when your soul disperses!
If you still don't yield, I'll ignore my brothers' suggestions and directly swallow you! "
Long Chen closed his eyes and rested, remaining calm and collected.
There was no need for him to pay any attention to him.
"I said yesterday that I would prepare a gift for you today. Take it!"
Whoosh!
As soon as the Soul Controller Devil finished speaking, Long Chen felt a sense of life-threatening danger. It was the danger of the Dao Artefact. At that moment, his eyes snapped open. A ghostly shadow appeared in front of him, incomparably fast. Behind the green-faced fanged figure, Long Chen saw the true form of the ghostly shadow. It was a black needle.
Of course, it was different from Li Xuanji's black needle.
It was more like a nail than a needle.
"This is the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail. It has a total of 970 Dao patterns!"
The Soul Control Demon's voice pierced through the air like a sword, causing a violent vibration.
It was indeed worthy of being a Primeval Troll. Any one of them was an extremely rare Peerless Dao Artefact.
Long Chen had only seen three true Peerless Dao Artefacts: the Tai Zu Dragon Sword, the Celestial God Sword's Milky River and the Spirit God Thrust.
The King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail was about the same as the Spirit God Thrust.
As the Soul Slaying Nail attacked, Long Chen was greatly restricted by this demonic claw. There was no way for him to resist. In a blink of an eye, the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail pierced through his chest!
"Uh!"
What followed was a bone-piercing pain.
This was a Peerless Dao Artefact, so it naturally had terrifying abilities. Now, endless black foul gas was like a monstrous river. It entered Long Chen's blood vessels, instantly contaminating his entire body. It caused his blood vessels, liver, bones and skin to turn completely black. His flesh and blood were disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The pain of a Soul Slaying Nail piercing the heart was truly terrifying!
However, Long Chen's blood vessels were not so easily defeated. When the foul gas reached his heart, the Seven Orifices Heart of Karma immediately lit up. It was the light of judgment, the power of justice. It could exorcise evil and cleanse evil. Wherever the light swept, the damage caused by the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail would rapidly recover. The foul gas would be chased back into the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail!
As the fire of life swept through him, all his injuries healed.
Because the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail was the power of the Primeval Troll, Long Chen was unable to pull it out of the demonic claw's encirclement. As long as the Soul Slaying Nail remained in his body, it would bring him endless pain.
"Enjoy it!"
The Primeval Troll fell into a deep slumber once again.
After he left, Long Chen finally picked up the God Slaying Sword. Although the pain was not that great, it was still extremely uncomfortable to have the Soul Slaying Nail stuck in his body.
And the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail was a great supplement for the God Slaying Sword.
Now, Long Chen was able to resist the oppressive force within the demonic claw. He could basically brandish the God Slaying Sword. He gathered all the energy in his body to break through the demonic claw's restrictions, slashing the God Slaying Sword at the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail!
Once, twice!
Now, Long Chen's strength was weak, so he needed a long time.
But he did not give up. Every time he brandished the sword, it was his own improvement.
Towards the end, he could even use the Massacre Sword Art.
Every time he brandished the sword, it was as if he had taken a bite out of the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail.
After a day and a half, Long Chen finally used the God Slaying Sword to destroy the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail in his chest.
The God Slaying Sword improved once again. The Little Skeleton was extremely excited. This time, he had directly produced five Dao patterns, reaching the level of 950 Dao patterns!
Limitless Dao Artifact!
From not having a single Dao pattern, to today, it had formed 950 Dao patterns, becoming an Unbounded Dao Artifact.
This path had been too difficult and complicated. The God Slaying Sword had slain thousands of Dao artifacts to finally reach its current level.
Long Chen was very happy. Every improvement of the God Slaying Sword was also his own improvement.
At the Unbounded Dao Artifact, the God Slaying Sword's power increased once again. The green in the Little Skeleton's eyes also deepened.
Long Chen was now focused on improving his strength. He did not pay much attention to the changes in the God Slaying Sword. When it successfully became an Unbounded Dao Artifact, he continued to train himself.
The days began to repeat themselves.
The difference was that every ten days, Primeval Troll would take out a Dao artifact. First, it was the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail. Next, it was an Unbounded Dao Artifact with 987 Dao patterns. Long Chen used the God Slaying Sword to destroy that Dao artifact. The process was similar to the King Tai Ah Soul Slaying Nail.
The God Slaying Sword once again condensed 15 Dao patterns.
Then, it repeated two to three times. Now, the God Slaying Sword had increased to 990 Dao patterns!
Long Chen knew that the other party must have done it on purpose.
At the start, he had used the God Slaying Sword to save his life. He did not think too much about it. But after two or three times, he realized that Primeval Troll had only used the Dao artifact to hurt him. Then, he did not ask too much. Long Chen finally understood.
However, he was curious. What was the other party's goal in using such a method to improve the God Slaying Sword?
With 990 Dao patterns, the God Slaying Sword was almost at the peak of Dao artifacts. It was getting closer and closer to the Unbounded Dao Artifact.
But even so, the Little Skeleton was still under his control. Other than the God Slaying Sword becoming terrifyingly powerful, there were no other changes.
This time, Primeval Troll took out an even stronger Dao artifact. It had 996 Dao patterns.
"How about using that interesting God Slaying Sword of yours for a spar?"
If this went on, he would definitely fall into his trap. This time, he could not agree to it no matter what.
"Looks like you're suspicious.
It's actually very simple. I just want this sword to turn into its original appearance. I won't take it away. Of course, the prerequisite is that you are my puppet.
But you aren't now. But, you will be soon.
Since you won't cooperate, I'll take the sword myself and make it change. "
Primeval Troll said nonchalantly.
It had been close to two months since he was imprisoned.
The Demonic Star Seal outside was close to collapsing. Perhaps in another month, everything would be destroyed. The closer it was to that time, the more anxious Long Chen was.
The Demonic Star Seal was already very weak. It was nearing a critical point. Once it reached that critical point, this Primeval Troll would be able to tear everything apart. After tearing the Demonic Star Seal, he would only need to devour some living beings to have the power to tear the Demonic Star apart.
Everything was imminent, but he was still trapped here.
In these two months, he had been trapped here. He had gone through a lot of tempering. His will, body, and strength had all been improved. But he still couldn't destroy these five claws and get out of here.
There wasn't much time left. The closer it was to that time, the smaller the hope.
But even at this time, it wasn't easy for Long Chen to maintain his calm mood.
One had to know that the depression and anger in his heart was unprecedented. Almost no one could bear what he was enduring now. It came from everyone's hope, from his promise to his lover, and from his brotherhood!
Primeval Troll's sharp voice echoed again.
"In these two months, I must have been deceived by you. Every time, you were almost controlled by me. But in the end, you were able to hold on. I think you were playing with me and stalling for time. You were worried that I would kill you. Damn it. I didn't expect a mere mortal like you to be so cunning."
It took him almost 60 days to understand this truth. He was really stupid.
In fact, he was too confident in himself. He didn't expect that after spending so much time, he still didn't have the ability to control Long Chen.
Now that he found out the truth, Primeval Troll naturally wanted to kill Long Chen on the spot.
But this kid was so valuable. He might be of great use in the future. It would be a pity to kill him now.
One had to know that the enemies of the primordial demon race were not mortals.
