Chapter 455: True Strength!
In response to the attack, Long Chen pressed his right hand downward. Immediately, a surge of the Power of Thunder shot toward Lei Changshan.
Lei Changshan paid it no mind, instantly condensing an Energy Barrier.
BANG!
The bolt of the Power of Thunder was completely blocked by the barrier.
"Explode!" Long Chen let out a low shout.
The blocked Power of Thunder suddenly coalesced into a single point of light, then it instantly exploded!
Mysterious Heart Thunder! This was the core Secret Technique of the Jinglei Sect that Lei Yujing had taught him. During his closed-door cultivation, he had already mastered it.
This move was so unexpected that it caught Lei Changshan completely off guard. Before he could react, the Defensive Barrier shattered on the spot. The energy’s might did not diminish as it continued to bombard Lei Changshan.
Lei Changshan suddenly came to his senses. Just as the energy was about to strike him, he quickly waved his hand at the critical moment, neutralizing the attack.
Long Chen seized this opening.
The Divine Demon Eye activated!
A beam of light shot from Long Chen’s Heterochromatic Eyes, blasting toward Lei Changshan. This move was incredibly fast, catching Lei Changshan completely by surprise.
Fortunately, his reflexes were fast enough for him to scramble and dodge.
The beam of light grazed past Lei Changshan’s shoulder, scattering his long hair. His neck was stained with blood. Fortunately, the blow Long Chen had unleashed only injured his shoulder and didn’t hit a vital spot. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Seeing this, Lei Changshan’s expression became incredibly grim, his face darkening with a mixture of shock. He stared intently at Long Chen. "Heterochromatic Eyes?"
"I didn’t expect you to have Heterochromatic Eyes! Kid, you’re full of surprises! What other treasures do you have?"
Seeing that Lei Changshan had managed to evade the strike, Long Chen’s brow furrowed. I didn’t expect the old scoundrel’s reactions to be so fast.
When Long Chen remained silent, Lei Changshan chuckled. "Kid, whatever tricks you have, just bring them out! I want to see how long you can hold out!"
As his voice fell, Lei Changshan began forming seals with his hands. A Rune Inscription suddenly appeared before him, spinning rapidly. In the next instant, several energy waves appeared, all converging on the Rune Inscription and instantly trapping Long Chen.
Instantly, an immense pressure, like Mount Tai itself, bore down on Long Chen.
Long Chen’s entire body felt heavy, and his feet sank into the ground. A dense network of cracks spread out in all directions.
He exerted all his strength, trying to break free from the restraint, but the moment he moved, countless tentacles wrapped around him.
Facing these numerous, rapidly approaching tentacles, Long Chen had no room to dodge. He tried to channel his energy to resist, but Lei Changshan gave him no opportunity.
With a fierce press of his right hand, Lei Changshan shattered the Defensive Barrier Long Chen had conjured. The tentacles then surged forward, binding Long Chen tightly!
These tentacles were incredibly tough. No matter how much strength Long Chen used to struggle, he couldn’t break free.
Seeing Long Chen successfully captured, a smug smile crept onto Lei Changshan’s lips.
"Kid, there’s no use struggling. With your current strength, you simply can’t break free from the formation I’ve set up." Saying this, Lei Changshan grew even more smug and continued, "I prepared this formation specially for you. With this formation, I can absorb your Inner Strength and obtain your memories. At that point, everything valuable you have will belong to me."
From the moment he witnessed the unique suppressive power Long Chen displayed, he had coveted it. Unfortunately, Lei Shishi was there to back him up last time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had to wait until now.
Long Chen stared coldly at Lei Changshan without speaking.
Lei Changshan, arrogant to the extreme, said scornfully, "Kid, you could have chosen a safe path, but you insisted on courting death. You have no one to blame but yourself. Today, this old man will gladly accept everything you possess!"
As his voice fell, Lei Changshan thrust his palm toward the center of Long Chen’s brow, attempting to absorb his cultivation strength.
"Absorb my cultivation strength? I’m afraid you’re not capable!"
Long Chen’s voice was ice-cold as a powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body.
Secret Technique of Gods and Demons!
Dragon Blood Boiling!
A dense Demonic Qi surged out, twisting and warping the surrounding space.
In that same instant, all the tentacles shattered!
Seeing this, Lei Changshan’s expression changed drastically. He hurriedly circulated his energy to resist the oncoming force, but was still blasted away. He was thrown back a full hundred meters before he managed to regain his footing.
How can this power be so immense? Lei Changshan was shocked.
He lifted his head and looked at Long Chen.
He saw Long Chen’s eyes were blood-red, his body shrouded in Demonic Qi. He looked like a divine demon! An icy, ferocious aura radiated from him, sending a chill down the spine.
Lei Changshan was bewildered. What in the world is happening?
His pupils shrank abruptly before he stared greedily at Long Chen. "Good, boy, you really haven’t disappointed me. What is this Secret Technique? To be able to increase your aura by so much... Quite interesting."
"However, as far as this old man is concerned, this is all just a futile struggle. You can never be my match!"
As his voice fell, Lei Changshan extended two fingers. From within the Rune Inscription, many more tentacles shot out, coiling toward Long Chen.
Long Chen faced these tentacles with utter indifference.
At this moment, his combat power had leaped across an entire Great Realm! Even an expert at the ninth layer of the Warlord Realm would be no match for him, let alone these tentacles.
Long Chen waved his hand casually, and a devastating force instantly turned the tentacles to dust.
Lei Changshan was stunned, trembling inwardly. Seeing Long Chen neutralize the tentacles so easily, a grave expression appeared on his face. Only at this moment did he realize that the current Long Chen was not to be underestimated.
He frowned slightly and began forming seals. A dense field of the Power of Thunder instantly materialized around him.
Long Chen remained indifferent, unwilling to waste any more time. He threw a punch!
The wind from the fist whistled, tearing through space! A terrifying fist intent swept across heaven and earth!
This overwhelming pressure froze Lei Changshan in place just as he was about to make his move.
Such terrifying power! At that moment, Lei Changshan’s scalp tingled.
The fist’s intent had yet to arrive, but the force of its wind already had!
In the nick of time, Lei Changshan snapped back to his senses and hurriedly defended himself!
BANG!
With a dull thud, Lei Changshan was sent flying over a hundred meters. He crashed heavily onto the ground, instantly coughing up a mouthful of blood. He had suffered severe internal injuries, leaving him weakened to an extreme degree.
How is this possible?!
