Based on the impression that the Demon General had, Long Chen's strength should be around the fifth level of the Ascension Heaven State. This was because he had killed Zhao Wuji. To think that in today's confrontation, Long Chen would be able to unleash such a powerful attack in such a short period of time.
"So strong! This lad must have been hiding his true strength."
The Demon General had no choice but to run away from Liu Yiyi and turn around to deal with Long Chen. After all, Long Chen's Heaven Punishment Sword Formation had already been fully formed and was descending on his head.
At the same time, the range of the Devouring World of Blood directly shrouded the entire cave. The blood-red mist. The Herculean Demon General could feel that there was a terrifying suction force acting on his body in this strange space. To be more precise, it was acting on his blood.
"What kind of technique is this?"
The Demon General was taken aback. He hurriedly channeled a portion of his Spiritual Qi to resist the influence of that massive suction force on him.
He had truly come to know how tenacious Long Chen was.
"This lad! If I don't give it my all, I won't be a match for him at all!" The Demon General muttered in shock.
Now that he was under the Heaven Punishing Sword Formation, he had no other choice. In an instant, his body burst forth with the Pure Qi of a level nine Ascension Heaven State. That massive Pure Qi swept across the entire cave, causing the air to ripple rapidly. The Herculean Demon General glared at Long Chen with a death stare. With a cold laugh, he punched out with a roar.
Roar!
An image of a ferocious tiger shot out from his fist. With lightning speed, it roared and charged towards the Heaven Punishment Sword Formation. The image of the ferocious tiger was massive and majestic. The massive energy swept through the entire cavern, causing it to shake violently.
At this moment, Liu Yiyi was already close to the entrance of the cavern. The huge commotion behind her made her want to turn around to take a look. However, she knew that as long as she turned around, she would likely slow down. By then, Long Chen would be in even more danger.
"Why are you so nice to me? We have nothing to do with each other. You don't have to risk your life for me..." Liu Yiyi's eyes were filled with tears. Given Long Chen's stubborn character, she knew that only by escaping would there be a chance for Long Chen to be saved. Therefore, she could only grit her teeth and move forward. With a whoosh, she flew out of the cavern.
Long Chen and the Demon General sensed that Liu Yiyi had left. Long Chen felt a lot more relaxed, while the Demon General frowned.
"Brat, you are forcing me to kill you as soon as possible."
If Liu Yiyi ran out, it was likely that she would call King Qingli over during this period. If King Qingli came, even if the Demon General could kill Long Chen, he would definitely die. Therefore, a crazy killing intent was burning in his heart.
Roar!
Under the Herculean Devil General's punch, the image of the ferocious tiger instantly collided with the Sky Punishment Sword Formation. In an instant, a terrifying power swept through the cave. The sword image and the terrifying power shook off large chunks of soil in the cave. If they continued fighting like this, it was very likely that the cave would collapse.
"With your strength, even if you are ten times stronger, you are still not my opponent."
The Demon General's punch directly broke Long Chen's Heaven Punishment Sword Formation. It shook Long Chen's body directly to the wall of the cavern and deeply imprinted it.
At this moment, the blood in Long Chen's body was tumbling, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. The Demon General was really terrifying. A casual punch was much more powerful than Long Chen's Heaven Punishment Sword Formation.
"Is that so?"
At this moment, Long Chen let out a cold laugh. The Demon General's punch had already injured him. However, Liu Yiyi had already successfully escaped. Long Chen could use the Blood Escape to escape, but he didn't. On the one hand, he wanted Liu Yiyi to escape further. On the other hand, he didn't want any of his enemies to live in this world.
The Demon General wanted to kill Long Chen, and Long Chen also wanted to kill him.
"Ten times the strength and I still can't kill you. What a joke. I haven't used this move for a long time …"
The strong confidence in Long Chen's voice made the Giant Strength Demon General a little confused.
In fact, not only had he not used it for a long time, but Long Chen had only used it twice ever since he learned it. Moreover, it was when he was being chased by the Cangyang Kingdom's royal family.
That was the Blood Sacrifice.
The Blood Sacrifice was actually quite terrifying. Its heaven-defying aspect was not the slightest bit weaker than Refining Blood into Qi and Dragon Soul Transformation.
The Blood Sacrifice had a total of three levels. The first level was to burn one's True Qi and raise one's True Qi by one level. For example, if Long Chen used the first level, coupled with the effect of Dragon Soul Transformation, he would have True Qi equivalent to the ninth level of the Heaven Ascension Realm. Of course, after using it, Long Chen's strength would return to the sixth level of the Heaven Ascension Realm.
The second level was to burn two levels of True Qi and raise one's True Qi by two levels. After using it, his strength would return to the fifth level of the Heaven Ascension Realm.
The third level was to burn three levels of True Qi and raise one's True Qi by three levels. After using it, his strength would return to the fourth level of the Heaven Ascension Realm.
The Blood Sacrifice was a secret technique. It was better not to use it unless it was a crucial moment. On one hand, it would cause one's strength to regress. On the other hand, it would cause a certain degree of damage to one's foundation.
The first level of the Blood Sacrifice would normally cause very little damage, basically no damage at all. However, the second level of the Blood Sacrifice could not be used frequently, as it would cause a certain degree of damage. Back then, when Long Chen dealt with the City of Songzhong and Lin Zichen, he had used the second level of the Blood Sacrifice. As for the third level of the Blood Sacrifice, it would cause a very long period of weakness. It was best not to use it unless it was a moment of absolute death.
Long Chen actually had a lot of life-saving skills. Time Reversal, Blood Escape, and Blood Sacrifice could be considered as his top life-saving skills. It was just that the way they were used was different.
It didn't matter much to use the first level of the Blood Sacrifice. Moreover, now that Liu Yiyi had left, Long Chen could do whatever he wanted to and get rid of the Herculean Demon General to avoid any future troubles.
At the thought of this, scarlet flames suddenly burned on Long Chen's body. As the flames burned, his strength grew rapidly. Coupled with the strengthening effect of the Dragon Soul Transformation, his True Qi instantly reached the ninth level of the Heaven Ascension Realm.
He was using the first level of the Blood Sacrifice.
The Herculean Demon General's eyes widened when he saw the True Qi burning with scarlet flames.
"What the hell is this?"
He originally wanted to kill Long Chen quickly. However, when he saw the scarlet flames suddenly burning on Long Chen's body, he was completely dumbfounded.
"Something that will kill you."
The first level of the Blood Sacrifice was completed very quickly. Not long ago, Long Chen had kept some corpses of the seventh and even the eighth level of the Heaven Ascension Realm in the third level of the Demon Realm. It just so happened that they came in handy today.
At this moment, Long Chen's eyes were also burning with scarlet flames.
"Die."
The Herculean Demon General wanted to end the battle quickly, and so did Long Chen.
Among people of the same level, because of the Devouring Blood Realm, Long Chen had always been invincible. His True Qi expanded, and the power of the Devouring Blood Realm increased rapidly. Gradually, it reached a level that even the Herculean Demon General would find difficult to resist.
"What?"
The Herculean Demon General was shocked to find that the blood on his body seemed to be completely out of his control. It was boiling. He could only try his best to control it. At least half of his True Qi was used to finally control the rioting blood that didn't seem to belong to him.
At this moment, the Sky Punishment Sword Formation, which was ten times more terrifying than before, descended.
"Don't!"
The Herculean Demon General let out a crazy roar. He threw a few punches crazily, but he found that his current attack was simply too weak compared to Long Chen's. Under the cold sharpness of the Sky Punishment Sword Formation, the Herculean Demon General was killed by Long Chen with a roar of despair. The only thing that could survive was his Cosmos Sack.
Long Chen quickly put away the Cosmos Sack.
The power of the Blood Sacrifice began to fade. Long Chen found that his Earth Yang Aperture, which he had already opened, was rapidly closing. Long Chen quickly sat down cross-legged and took out the corpse of the Nine-wheel Ghost Fire Beast. He used the Blood Refining Qi to swallow the blood. After producing a huge amount of True Qi, Long Chen used the Reaching Heaven State again to break through to the seventh level of the Reaching Heaven State.
He spent another 350,000 Reaching Heaven State, but Long Chen didn't feel the slightest bit of heartache. The Herculean Demon General wanted to escape the Ancient Demon Territory, so there should be a lot of things in his Cosmos Sack.
Although it was much easier to go back to the sixth level of the Reaching Heaven State and break through to the seventh level of the Reaching Heaven State again, it was still a rather uncomfortable feeling. However, if he wanted to kill the Herculean Demon General and get his wealth, Long Chen had to give it a try.
If he didn't understand, he had to ask others and absorb their knowledge. This was a way to become knowledgeable quickly. Killing people and getting their wealth was a way to become rich quickly. Long Chen's original idea was to let Liu Yiyi go out, and then he would use the Blood Sacrifice and Blood Refining Qi to kill people and get their treasures in an isolated corner.
Of course, such a risky thing couldn't be done often.
Long Chen estimated that Liu Yiyi would come back soon. As he expected, at this time, Liu Yiyi reappeared in the cave. Her face was full of anxiety and panic. At this time, her face was full of tears like pear blossoms.
Long Chen knew that she wouldn't find King Qingli. She ran halfway and thought that Long Chen would follow her. However, Long Chen didn't even see his shadow. She was suddenly in a mess. She knew that Long Chen was probably killed by the Herculean Demon General, so she was full of self-blame.
She could only run back in despair, because she thought that if Long Chen died, she would die with him. Because Long Chen died because he saved her.
However, when she returned to the cave, what she saw really stunned her.
