"If I can't whip you to death in one strike, I refuse to believe that you won't die after ten thousand times."
Long Chen's laughter echoed throughout the arena. Everyone's scalps went numb as they heard a series of cracking sounds followed by Yang Jun's screams of despair.
In the arena, Yang Jun's face was filled with misery as he was chased around by Long Chen. At this moment, his clothes were already in tatters and his entire body was covered in blood.
Everyone stared blankly at this scene. Before this battle, even if they were to explode their brains, they still wouldn't have thought that such a scene would occur.
No one would have thought that not only would Long Chen be able to cultivate the Traceless Specter, he would also be able to use it to such a degree. This kind of talent was far too monstrous.
"I concede, I concede."
Only when Yang Jun was on the verge of tears did Long Chen stop his attacks. Standing in front of Yang Jun, he looked at him with a mocking smile, "Yang Jun, I'm sorry. Today, I acted as your father and whipped you a few times. In the future, you better not be disobedient. Otherwise, I'll whip you again. I'll whip you until you cry, and I'll whip you until you beg for mercy."
"Long Chen."
At this moment, his entire body was burning with pain. Because he had lost quite a few of his teeth, Yang Jun's words had become labored. Right now, he was as miserable as he could be.
This was the power of the Heaven Tier Battle Skill, the Traceless Specter.
"A Heaven Tier Battle Skill truly is extraordinary. After I use it, this fellow doesn't even have the strength to fight back." Long Chen thought to himself.
Yang Jun glared venomously at Long Chen once more. He no longer had the face to stay on the arena any longer. Right now, his entire body was burning with pain, and his mind was completely blank. This kind of reality was far too shocking for him to believe.
After Yang Jun left the arena, Long Chen stood alone on the arena.
He suddenly enjoyed the feeling of being the focus of everyone's shocked gazes.
At this time, the three demon elders looked at each other. After a long time, the First Demon Elder sighed and said, "I have to admit that he is indeed a genius. It seems that the rumor that he killed the six commanders and exterminated the Wu tribe is absolutely true. This man is quite terrifying. The Palace Master has bet on the right treasure this time."
"Then what should we do?" Second Demon Elder asked worriedly.
"What can we do? Fortunately, Long Chen is only in the sixth tier of the Sky River Tier, and a new round of competition for the Demon Emperor Sword is about to begin. As long as he doesn't get the Demon Emperor Sword, everything will be fine," the Great Demon Elder said calmly.
Second Demon Elder also nodded. She looked at the shining young man on the Grand Elder and was a little dazed for a moment. Because she found that this young man had a feeling of looking down on the world. Even though she was much stronger than Long Chen, she always felt a little strange. It seemed that Long Chen was superior, and she could only look up to him like an ant.
"My eyes are blurred at this age. Alas …" Second Demon Elder sighed and then looked at the Third Demon Elder next to him. At this time, the Third Demon Elder's face was so dark that it was almost dripping blood.
"Third Demon Elder, what are you thinking about?" Second Demon Elder asked.
The Third Demon Elder was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice, "I'm thinking how to kill this guy without causing any retaliation."
"Don't. This is not the time. You are not young. Don't be impulsive." Hearing his words, the Great Demon Elder hurriedly warned him.
"Well, goodbye."
After saying that, the Third Demon Elder stood up. He was too ashamed to stay here. He called Yang Jun, broke through the crowd, and walked out.
Zhao Qingyun watched them leave, and then looked at Long Chen on the arena. The more he looked at this young man, the more satisfied he was. At this time, the battle was over. Before Long Chen came, Zhao Qingyun had been so sullen, but now he could finally hold his head high. So he stood up and said with a smile, "Everyone, the result of this battle is very clear. Long Chen fulfilled his promise. He not only completely practiced Traceless Phantom, but also defeated the third ranked disciple of the young generation. Yang Jun, let's give him a round of applause first."
With Zhao Qingyun taking the lead, there was no reason not to applaud. Suddenly, the tide of applause shook the entire Celestial Devil Palace. Before, they looked down on Long Chen because they thought Long Chen was bragging. Now that Long Chen obviously had such strength, more people sincerely admired him, especially those who had criticized Long Chen. At this time, their faces were burning.
Among them, Wang Xing shouted the loudest.
It could be said that because of this battle, Long Chen could finally use his identity of 'Long Chen'. He finally had a name. In the future, when he was in Celestial Devil Palace, he did not have to sneak around and listen to people talking about him.
However, Long Chen had an even more important matter to attend to in this challenge.
"Master, I heard that there is a trial of the Earth Vein of Fire. I don't know how many days it will take place." Long Chen asked.
"The trial of the Earth Vein of Fire is in five days."
Zhao Qingyun nodded. He knew what Long Chen was going to do. It seemed that Long Chen had the intention to enter the Earth Vein of Fire before.
"I want to ask, with my current strength, whether I am qualified to enter the Earth Vein of Fire for the trial." Long Chen asked with a smile.
"Of course, you have defeated Yang Jun. Among the young disciples, you are already ranked third. You are fully qualified to enter the Earth Vein of Fire. How about this, the previous ten people should have already been decided, and Long Chen is qualified enough, so today's trial of the Earth Vein of Fire will increase to eleven people." Zhao Qingyun announced.
In this way, the guy who ranked tenth would not resent Long Chen because he was squeezed out.
"Thank you, Master."
After successfully obtaining this place, Long Chen was very happy. The help of the Earth Vein of Fire to him was the Great Method of Dao Heart Demonic Seed, and the help to Xiao Lang was even greater. Long Chen could imagine that it should be a paradise of flames. Xiao Lang was a demonic beast born because of flames. He was now only at the fifth grade of the Earth Rank. As long as he entered the Earth Vein of Fire, his strength would definitely be greatly enhanced.
"Master, I want to bring my demonic beast Xiao Lang in. It should be okay. He has always been with me. When I am not here, if he is not controlled, it will not be good if he hurts others." Long Chen said.
"Of course, this is okay."
Zhao Qingyun was in an extremely good mood. At this time, he might even agree to any of Long Chen's requests.
"How about this? Long Chen, the trial is about to begin. You still don't know anything about the rules. Little Yu, if you have time, you should talk to Long Chen about it."
Entering the Earth Vein of Fire, Long Chen would be alone. The top ten were all disciples of the Three Great Demonic Elders. Zhao Qingyun was worried that Long Chen would be besieged, so he thought of Murong Yu. Among the disciples of the Three Great Demonic Elders, only Murong Yu was relatively well-behaved and had no prejudice against anyone. Moreover, she was also powerful. If Long Chen could take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Murong Yu, it would be of great help to his trip to the Earth Vein of Fire.
Murong Yu didn't expect that Zhao Qingyun would suddenly mention her. She was a little stunned for a moment. She had just been warned, so her first reaction was to look at her Master. However, since Zhao Qingyun had spoken, Second Demon Elder didn't dare to let Murong Yu refuse. So Murong Yu nodded and said, "Palace Master, I will try my best."
Zhao Qingyun nodded with satisfaction. Then he looked around and said, "Today's business is over. Everyone can leave. Those who want to participate in the trial of the Earth Vein of Fire, prepare well. In five days, I will open the passage. At that time, who can get the Great Skill of Taoist Heart Demon Seed will depend on how hard you work."
"Yes, Palace Master."
Because of his relationship with Long Chen, Zhao Qingyun's prestige did not decline, but rose a lot. In the past, the only thing people in Celestial Devil Palace criticized was the ability of the Palace Master to accept disciples. When Long Chen rose, Zhao Qingyun's image instantly became perfect in the eyes of all disciples of Celestial Devil Palace.
The crowd gradually retreated. Except for Murong Yu who was still in the same place, the other three Great Devil Elders also left without saying a word.
What Long Chen didn't see was that Yang Danfeng's eyes were always gloomy when he left. He glanced in the crowd and finally found a thin young man. Then he hurried to follow him.
Long Chen naturally didn't know all this.
"Alright, Long Chen, Little Yu is a genius cultivator at the eighth level of the Heavenly River Tier. Moreover, she is kind-hearted and has a good temper. You should have a good conversation with her. It will be of great help to you on your journey to the Elemental Fire Vein," Zhao Qingyun said before leaving with Dongfang Xuanxiao and Dongfang Xuanxiao.
Only Long Chen and the veiled Murong Yu were left in the field.
"It seems that my Master wants you to cover me in the Earth Vein of Fire. It seems that I have to ride on your coattails." Long Chen said with a wry smile.
"Coattails."
Murong Yu was a little angry. Although Long Chen's words didn't mean that, Murong Yu felt that something was wrong. Moreover, Murong Yu still remembered the warning of the three Demon Elders.
"Long Chen, I'll tell you the rules of the Earth Vein of Fire. I'll leave after I tell you. Listen carefully," Murong Yu said.
"Okay." Long Chen nodded.
"The Earth Vein of Fire is a huge magma river. There are two things hidden under the magma river. One is the Fire Essence, and the other is a demonic beast at the sixth level of the Earth Stage, the Fire Flame Beast. Generally, the Fire Flame Beast will guard the Fire Essence. Under normal circumstances, only by defeating the Fire Flame Beast can you get the Fire Essence. Our rule is that whoever gets the most Fire Essence will be the winner. This time, I will compete with Yang Danfeng, and you will compete with others. If you get the most Fire Essence, you can get the first level of the Taoist Heart Seed Method."
"It's so simple." Long Chen was a little surprised.
"What else do you think it needs?" Murong Yu said.
"What if I get more Fire Essence than you and Yang Danfeng?" Long Chen asked.
"I don't know. You can ask the Palace Master. But don't think too much. Yang Danfeng and I have entered the Earth Vein of Fire twice and are very familiar with it. It's basically impossible for you to surpass us."
