Chapter 5386 Minor Tests
Long Chen’s attack was quick, accurate, and ruthless, executed in a single stroke. The Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros screamed in agony as its giant pizzle and balls flew into the air.
Without a second thought, Long Chen reached out and sent the detached parts into his primal chaos space, where they were promptly absorbed by the Earth Cauldron.
The Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros’s aura plummeted as if its life force drained out, leaving it visibly weak.
Only now did Long Chen realize just how vital that treasure had been to the beast—it was clearly no ordinary organ, given how severely its aura had dropped. When he inspected the cut, he saw that the wound was flat and smooth as glass. It wasn’t even bleeding.
“Wow, you’re brutal,” Long Chen muttered, realizing that Evilmoon had absorbed the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros’s essence blood as it severed the organ, causing the creature to wither.
“What are you talking about? I was just being considerate, making sure the old cauldron had plenty of essence blood,” Evilmoon retorted smugly.
“Cut your nonsense. The essence blood you took isn’t the part that I want. You can keep it,” the Earth Cauldron replied, clarifying that it needed the essential energy within the essence blood rather than its quantity.
At this moment, the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros went into a frenzy. Despite the loss, it ignited whatever little essence blood remained. Its aura surged, and it charged at Long Chen, its horn glowing fiercely.
The space around Long Chen instantly solidified. The sharp horn pierced toward him like a bolt of golden lightning.
The space around Long Chen solidified as the razor-sharp horn closed in like a bolt of golden lightning. He could feel the destructive force radiating from it. It was a lethal attack that could kill him instantly.
Yet, Long Chen remained calm, sensing the overwhelming threat. Under this pressure, he noticed that the flame of his Spirit Root intensified and the Eternal runes beneath it began to react, as if resonating with the feeling of impending death.
BOOM!
A sheathed broadsword struck the golden horn, sending the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros crashing through mountains. Ye Lingkong had arrived, but he hadn’t released his aura, bloodline fluctuations, or even spiritual pressure.
Just a single swing of his sheathed broadsword had sent the berserk beast flying. Although Long Chen knew that Ye Lingkong was shockingly powerful, he hadn’t expected his power to have reached this level.
Even at full power, the raging Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros had been knocked back with ease. It was clear that the two were not even close to being on the same level.
“Ye Lingkong, I’ll definitely kill you!” Liao Qingyu screamed, her face twisting with fury.
She directly attacked Ye Lingkong with a sword. Her five elite allies followed, surrounding him with a barrage of attacks. However, Ye Lingkong simply blocked them with his sheathed broadsword, effortlessly deflecting their all-out attacks.
Despite what Liao Qingyu said, she had long since expected this. They were under no delusions of being able to kill him; they just wanted to occupy him.
With Ye Lingkong tied down by them, Liao Qingyu shouted at her disciples, “Kill them all!”
“Kill!”
The six factions’ disciples charged out like a tidal wave toward the Hidden Dragon Legion.
“What a pity. A group of beautiful women are about to be sliced apart,” one sneered.
“Can’t we keep a few alive as bed warmers? Killing them is a destruction of natural treasures,” added another.
“Alive or dead, it’s all the same to me!” a third laughed, eyeing the warriors with lecherous grins.
To them, the Hidden Dragon warriors were nothing more than easy prey.
“I’ll take care of the man!” announced a large figure from the Divine March Gate.
The same man who had taunted Long Chen now strode toward him. As the Divine March Gate’s top disciple, he exuded intense Blood Qi and was clearly a formidable body cultivator.
Dark runes resembling writhing centipedes surfaced on the man’s fists, distorting the air around him. His Blood Qi surged, and his aura was overwhelming; it was clear why this person was the Divine March Gate’s number one disciple—he truly possessed immense power.
Looking expressionless, Long Chen simply raised his hand, and that was all. He simply let that man’s fist hit his palm. At the moment of impact, stars flickered to life across Long Chen’s palm, and his astral energy instantly condensed into a formidable barrier.
The man felt as if he had punched solid iron. Sharp pain radiated from his fist, and he feared his bones were close to breaking.
Radiant World Star Crystal, you really are my treasure! Long Chen thought with satisfaction.
Long Chen had intentionally tested the transformation of his astral energy by the Radiant World Star Crystal, and even in passive defense, its power was terrifying. Long Chen was overjoyed. What about when he actually attacked with it? How strong would his astral energy be then?
The large man was stunned by the outcome. Enraged, he reached out with his other hand, his fingers clawing toward Long Chen’s neck.
While he was quick, Long Chen was quicker. Before his hand could reach Long Chen, Long Chen’s palm struck his face with a resounding slap, leaving a bright red handprint.
“Wow, I can control my astral energy this precisely now?” Long Chen muttered to himself.
Seeing the handprint on his opponent’s face, Long Chen was pleasantly surprised. Before, a slap like that would have likely blown up the man's head or at least disfigured his face. But now, Long Chen could leave a clear handprint instead, which showed that his control over astral energy had reached an extremely high level. He could use it with exact precision.
“Die!”
When that man’s head cleared up after being slapped, his fury exploded. A giant hatchet then appeared in his hands, and he swung it down toward Long Chen with full force.
