Chapter 431 - Heaven Sword Array

“You used a sneak attack to defeat my other half. Do you really think you can defeat me?” The Sword Emperor chuckled. “Had you continued your assault, I might’ve died too. Too bad you wasted your time because of the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit. Long Chen, you are too naive.”

The Sword Emperor’s laugh echoed across the plains and reached the city. Everyone knew what he meant. It had been a day filled with surprises, and yet the black-eyed Sword Emperor was hinting that he could defeat the monstrous Long Chen even though his other half was beaten.

“Xiaolang, you’ve killed one of them. Let me fight him now.” Long Chen gently pushed Xiaolang away. Xiaolang knew he would just be a distraction, so he left the stage to Long Chen and the Sword Emperor.

The golden-eyed Sword Emperor is his other half? I can use Divine Fire Clone, but my clones are all made of fire. How did he make a clone out of flesh and blood? Wouldn’t it be crazy if he could cultivate 125 clones? But stronger techniques usually have some sort of restriction. The Sword Emperor must’ve put in a lot of effort to cultivate that clone, but now that it’s destroyed, he will focus his entire wrath on me,

It was the final fight. The Sword Emperor’s robe billowed in the wind as he stared at Long Chen, his Qi circulating wildly inside him. A strange light slowly emanated from his body, resembling the reflections of swords.

Divine Nine Palace Step.

The Sword Emperor disappeared as he approached Long Chen, rapidly launching Sword Qi attacks.

Traceless Demon Shadow.

Long Chen used his Heaven-tier Body Combat technique, creating numerous afterimages. The Sword Emperor was fast, but even he had a hard time locating Long Chen’s true body.

Both of them were nothing but a blur as they fought furiously. Sword Qi flew everywhere, and the people’s eyes were glued to the fight. Under the influence of the Blood Devouring Domain, Long Chen could fight on even ground with the Sword Emperor. Both of them were fighting without being pushed back. The people on the wall could see nothing but the flashes of Sword Qi.

“This is a battle of experts. Long Chen is definitely one of the three strongest fighters in the Cangyang Kingdom. His master must be Zhao Qingyun from the Heavenly Demon Palace. He was only there for three months and yet he has improved so much. Looking at how much stronger he drew in that time, his master must be a monstrous teacher!”

“The Heavenly Demon Palace is an organization with a Heavenly Passage Realm cultivator. They can stand up against the imperial family, so there’s no way they would be weak. I might send my son there if I leave the capital. I’ve heard that they aren’t exactly evil.”

Everyone was discussing and making small talk while Long Chen’s fight against the Sword Emperor was approaching its climax. The Sword Emperor used two consecutive Supreme Martial Swords that pushed Long Chen back. As a Heavenly Passage Realm cultivator, he had more Qi than Long Chen!

And a portion of Long Chen’s Qi was being used to maintain the Blood Devouring Domain.

Long Chen panted as he flew backward.

“Long Chen is too young. The Sword Emperor has fought for dozens of years and accumulated a lot of experience. Long Chen can’t be his opponent. I wonder if the Sword Emperor will kill him.”

“I think he will. Who would let an enemy with so much talent and potential live? If Long Chen doesn’t die today, the Sword Emperor will die in the future!”

Suddenly, everyone shouted and then turned to look at the battle again.

Long Chen had to admit that the Sword Emperor was strong as the latter continued his assault.

“Long Chen, I am impressed by your strength, but unfortunately, this is the end!” The Sword Emperor was like a sword as light reflected off his body. He shot towards Long Chen like a massive sword.

Sword Qi swirled around the Sword Emperor\'s fingertips, its incredible pressure causing the very air to vibrate.

The Sword Emperor was using all of his strength for this one single attack. He was trying to kill Long Chen in a single strike. Everyone on the city wall clamored because they thought it was the end. The Sword Emperor was going to kill Long Chen!

“Die! Imperial Sword Technique, Supreme Sovereign Sword!”

The attack he used was even stronger than the one used by the golden-eyed Sword Emperor. The flash of light was like a tornado that carried a thousand blades as it shot towards Long Chen. If he was hit by it, he would be torn apart just like Lin Zichen.

Would the same thing happen today?

No one blinked.

Long Chen’s achievements were unheard of in the Cangyang Kingdom, and many of them didn’t want Long Chen to die.

But what they never noticed was that even though Long Chen was retreating, he was not panicking. Instead, he was very calm as he looked at the attack approaching him.

At the last moment, Long Chen attacked with his sword. He swung the Demon Emperor Sword widely in front of him, and a massive, black rune appeared in its wake. He was using the Demon Emperor Sword like a brush, and he drew an array filled with runes in the air before him!

An ancient and grand energy exuded from the array.

“What’s Long Chen doing?” No one knew what he was doing. Why was he drawing runes instead of dealing with the attack?

“Is he killing himself?” No one understood why.

But they were wrong. Long Chen was not killing himself, but rather using his strongest attack. The Heaven Sword Array was completed before the Supreme Sovereign Sword reached him. Light enveloped Long Chen, and the runes spun wildly within the layer of light.

“Destroy!”

He pointed with the Demon Emperor Sword.

The runes around him disappeared and the very skies changed. Waves of ripples surged towards the Sword Emperor, revealing illusory swords.

The Heaven Sword Array was an advanced Heaven-tier martial technique, something that couldn’t have come from the Cangyang Kingdom. The elementary Heaven-tier Supreme Sovereign Sword was nothing against it.

The ripples enveloped the Sword Emperor and the Supreme Sovereign Sword. He had thought he could kill Long Chen when he suddenly felt a strange power exerting on his body.

He was surprised because he felt like his body was in an empty space filled with endless swords. The swords flew past him, and there were thousands of them. His Supreme Sovereign Sword was rendered useless here!

“What is this place?” The Sword Emperor didn’t realize that this was Long Chen’s killing move!

In an instant, the endless swords in the empty void surged towards him. The Sword Emperor was even more surprised to find that he could not defend himself!

Long Chen’s strength was too scary!

Impossible! This is just an illusion! Once I endure it, I will be able to kill him!

But he had thought wrong.

The endless swords reduced him to dust.

Everyone watching from the wall screamed in shock. They had all witnessed the Supreme Sovereign Sword being destroyed with just a few runes. The runes then flew past the Sword Emperor and rapidly turned his body to dust. The Sword Emperor’s face was the last thing to disappear, and all of them had seen his eyes filled with fear.

But it was too late.

The Sword Emperor had disappeared completely from the world.

The only thing left of him was the Universe Pouch that Long Chen had deliberately avoided attacking.

The people stared at Long Chen with shock.
