Long Chen vs Liang Chen (2)

Except for Liang Chen's immediate surroundings, the rest of the area around him was covered with heavy mist.

"Young master watch out!"

"I am alright"

Before they could react, they had icy spears shot at them from random directions.

'Tung''Tung''Tung'

The mist made it very hard for them to predict its trajectory, making them hard to maneuver around it.

"Damn It"

'Woosh''Woosh' As Liang Chen muttered that, he was suddenly surrounded by multiple vines all ferociously entangling him.

Before he could even attempt to break through, he got hit with a crimson-colored lotus.

'Shttttt'

It burst out and a black-colored gas started invading every part of his body.

His skin started blackening, his blood got a bit muddy and his complexion turned pale.

The purest form of corrosive essence qi was rampaging through his body, significantly weakening his body and making him unable to breakthrough.

This was the newest ability of the evil cypress tree.

The icy spears had stopped while the vines did not shy away from attacking his body, in the form of ripping off his skin and muscles at the same time strangle him.

Meanwhile, the palm elder was dealing with Long Chen's assault.

'Tang''Tang''Tnggg'

Long Chen's blades repeatedly collided with the palm elder's metallic palm.

Long Chen was bleeding from all of his orifices, his clothes were completely torn with many of his bones broken.

Still, his intensity did not decrease at all.

The Palm elder on the other hand had fewer injuries, still, he was visible slowing down.

"Hell Hound" Long Chen muttered looking like a Cerberus in the shape of a Hydra.

"108 Palms" The image of a buddha with 108 palms appeared behind the palm elder, his brows were creased, as this was a very difficult technique to maintain.

The Cerberus heads and palms started rapidly colliding, even though the palms had a numerical advantage, they did not have the ferociousness of the hounds.

In 15 breaths of time, both their moves got undone, with neither side having the advantage.

That very moment, the ground beneath Long Chen shifted.

'Shit', Before he could even react he got hit with a golden buddha palm right in the abdomen, Making him crash in the hole.

'Chk''Chk''Chk'

'What is this ?'

He had been shoved in a hole of spikes, which were covered with metallic essence qi.

All the spikes dug around one inch deep.

The Palm elder could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

His expression then hardened and he jumped in the hole to finish Long Chen.

"Golden Buddha Palm"

'Woosh''Shh'

"What!" Long Chen's body vanished like mist, the moment the palm came in contact with Long Chen's body.

'Khao' All of a sudden he threw up blood, Looking at his stomach he could see a hand, or it would be more accurate to call it a claw, going through his abdomen, at the same time it ripped out one of his vital organs.

Long Chen then threw him on the ground, picked up his sabers, and continued his assault.

Even the Palm elder's transformation started looking sloppy, with steam pouring from his body and his muscles continuously disappearing. It looked like it could come off any time now.

"Damn it brat" The palm elder cussed as his transformation got undone.

"ROARRRRRRR" It made the Palm elder's head start buzzing.

Before he could even get his bearings together, he saw Long Chen's saber being shoved in his heart.

'Kuctch''Kucth''Kuctch'

Long Chen repeatedly stabbed his saber in all of the elder's vital organs.

"Y-you will never escape the wrath of-"

"Enough Chitchat" 'Swish'

The Palm elder's dead body fell on the ground, Without wasting any time Long Chen started eating his dead body, before collecting his storage ring.

Long Chen's scales started disappearing, along with his asura transformation.

Even the mist vanished, his essence qi was completely empty, Along with the vines that had kept Liang Chen entangled.

As the mist got cleared, Liang Chen became visible to Long Chen.

The former had become an empty shell the ground beneath had been corroded by being bathed in his blood.

His transformation was completely undone, with a large portion of his skin and muscles being torn apart.

His eyes seemed lifeless and hollow, He looked like a badly mangled corpse just standing there.

As the mist vanished some clarity returned to Liang Chen's eyes.

Seeing Long Chen just sitting here eating a corpse made his skin crawl.

Without uttering a word, he dashed in the opposite direction as Long Chen.

"STOP" Long Chen roared making Liang Chen stagger, just by using his physical body Long Chen instantly closed the distance between them. Despite his gruesome injuries.

Long Chen held Liang Chen by the neck.

At this point, Liang Chen felt his will to be broken his mental state had deteriorated and he did not even try to struggle.

"Young man you might wanna stop there, Even the organization behind would not wanna incur strong enmity with the Barbarian God Temple"

A short old man, with a benevolent expression, appeared.

His eyes looked sagely and he had a long flowing beard.

His body was radiating the aura of the 8th layer essence gathering realm.

"Uncle Song" Xia Qinguye who had been hiding behind a tree, dashed towards the old man hugging him and tears started streaming down her face.

"Young miss the lord had been very worried about you"

This uncle song had already arrived there in the middle of the fight.

The reason he did not interfere was he wanted to make sure Liang Chen's side suffers as much as possible.

He was pleasantly surprised to see the 2 deacon's death and Liang Chen would probably develop a heart demon now.

Still, he couldn't let Liang Chen die otherwise forget him even his lord would be in trouble.

This was the harsh reality of the cultivation world, Liang Chen would get no further punishment despite almost raping an elder's daughter.

Meanwhile, Liang Chen's eyes brightened a little as he felt saved.

'I am gonna make this bastard regret being born, I will kill everyone related to him. I will…' He maliciously thought in his mind.

'Crack'

Before he could even finish his train of thought his neck was snapped into two by Long Chen.

Even in his death, he couldn't believe Long Chen dared to kill him.

"YOUU!" Uncle Song shouted as his eyes widened in surprise.

"Noisy, He Mao".

Uncle Song suddenly felt very cold, It was a foreign sensation to him.

The cold increased and he had trouble started breathing.

In 2 breaths of time, his condition drastically deteriorated. Even his vision started getting blurred.

He looked at his chest and saw his heart missing, replacing it was a massive hole.

From the corner of his eyes, he noticed a black cat yawning.

'Thud'

He fell lifelessly, even till his last moments he couldn't understand the cause of his death.

"AHHHH WHAT DO YOU WANT?, WHY DID YOU KILL UNCLE SONG"

Xia Qinguye started hysterically screaming with tears streaming down her face.

'Thuck'

Suddenly, she felt a stinging sensation in the back of her head, before fainting.

A tall fiend appeared behind her, He was Ah Gu.

"Ah Gu announces to the city that they can carry on, also tell my friends that they can go sightseeing around the town tomorrow. I would be joining the day after tomorrow."

After giving a final command without giving anyone a second look he laid on the nearest tree trunk and passed out.

This fight took a lot of toll on him, despite his fierce arsenal of techniques, it took everything he had to win.

…

'Ahh shit how long have I passed out for ?'

Opening his eyes Long Chen saw He Mao curled up beside him, meanwhile, Ah Gu was guarding Xia Qinguye.

"My liege you have been resting for a day, what are your orders?"

"Go back to the asura stone I will deal with the girl"

"As you command"

Long Chen felt his throat to be very sore, his entire body was aching from both the inside and the outside.

Sitting crosslegged he cultivated the [Primordial Dragon Transformation Method] for 2 hours just to get into top shape.

After that taking out a mini cauldron he made a few simple concoctions.

He then fed these vials to an unconscious Xia Qingyue.

The latter's skin started turning redder by the second and her eyes were fluttering.

In about 5 breaths of time, she woke up with her eyes reddened and her chest heaving up and down.

"What do you want? why did you turn against me"

"Oh, I never thought your highness believed in saving one's enemies…. I am Long Chen by the way, does that ring a bell ?"

Long Chen spoke in a lower tone while leaning closer and closer to Qingyue.

The latter's eyes widened in surprise, she knows the name of her father and asked her to keep an eye on this man, disposing of him if an opportunity arises.

Her father also suggested turning her admirers against this man in all sects.

"I don't know who you are " Qinguye shrieked while breaking eye contact.

"Well, you are about to find out" saying that he intensely kissed her.

She initially resisted, but her mind started getting blurred and her body started getting more sensitive.

Before she knew it, she was all over Long Chen like a mindless nymph.

One hour later,

Xia Qingyue had turned into a mummy, with her cultivation base and lifeforce extracted.

Long Chen snapped her neck giving her a quick end, before burning her body.

Internally Long Chen could feel the change in his body, his veins which were predominantly blue and dark reddish shade to them.

Increasing their compatibility with Yin natured qi like nether qi.

Even his demonic heart developed a bunch of veins, strengthening itself both in terms of quantity and quality.

The nether cypress seed in his dantian also got nurtured further, increasing its compatibility with Long Chen.

Making it more of a part of his body.

After meditating on his gains for a while, he returned to the inn with He Mao.
