Chapter 45 Defeating a Powerful Enemy

“I’m coming . ”

With a cold shout and his body encased in flames, Long Chen suddenly rose up . The s.p.a.ce even several meters away from him had already reached a terrifyingly high temperature .

Long Chen punched out, the high temperature around his fist causing s.p.a.ce to twist, its power shocking as it smashed towards Huang Chang .

Huang Chang was extremely startled as he felt an indescribable fear about the flame around Long Chen’s fist . Seeing him attack, he quickly retreated back to avoid the punch .

But just as he dodged this punch, he suddenly saw Long Chen coldly smile . An enormous sense of danger immediately filled him .

“c.r.a.p!”

Long Chen’s shocking punch was actually just a feint! The actual attack was a silent kick; by the time he sensed it, Long Chen’s foot had already viciously landed itself upon his stomach .

Huang Chang screamed miserably . This kick didn’t cause him any heavy injuries, but the flame ignited the fur around his body .

“Animals really do hate fire . ”

Long Chen was gratified inside . Huang Chang’s beast transformation might bring with it a Magical Beast’s might, but it also brought with it a bit of their weaknesses .

Furred Magical Beasts had an inherent fear of fire, so his Pill Flame had a powerful suppression over Huang Chang .

Long Chen’s kick had been covered with flame and ignited Huang Chang’s body . A strong roasting smell filled the air .

Despite doing his best to pat away the flames, it still took a long time for them to extinguish . A great portion of his yellow fur had been burnt black by this point . He appeared extremely miserable, like a rat that had dug its way out of a stove .

Seeing this, Yun Qi relaxed inside . For Long Chen to find Huang Chang’s weak spot so quickly was very exceptional .

And most importantly the fact was that even if others knew of it, only Long Chen who could condense the Pill Flame could take advantage of that fatal weak point .

Huang Chang’s skin was now black and all his fur had been burnt away . Although he wasn’t heavily injured, he couldn’t suppress the innate fear he had towards fire .

By this time it had become completely obvious that Long Chen’s Pill Flame had completely suppressed him .

Just as Huang Chang was howling in anger, Long Chen charged at him with his fists flying, appearing just like a human-shaped blazing flame .

Long Chen was extremely quick, consecutively landing three blows . Huang Chang knew he would be unable to avoid them, so he could only grind his teeth and take them head on .

Although he wasn’t afraid of Long Chen’s physical strength, each time Long Chen landed a blow, his claws seemed to shrink as if they had just come out of a furnace .

After the three blows, Huang Chang felt as if his hands weren’t his own anymore . He could even smell a faint fragrance of meat coming from them .

Just a moment ago it was Long Chen who was forced to dodge and run . Now the situation had completely reversed itself . In front of Long Chen’s Pill Flame, Huang Chang could only cower and didn’t have the strength to retaliate .

Fatty Yu and the others all celebrated when they saw this . As long as Long Chen could persevere, victory would definitely be his .

“Kill him Huang Chang!”

Xia Changfeng stood up and shouted . Long Chen’s strength had far exceeded his expectations .

It had reached a point where he was already feeling some fear . A Pill Adept with endless potential who was also a genius martial cultivator was not someone he could take lightly .

That kind of person had to either become a loyal subordinate or be completely eliminated . Currently his relations.h.i.+p with Long Chen was like that of water and fire, so the first possibility no longer existed . Therefore it didn’t matter what the price was; he must kill Long Chen or he would never be able to be at peace .

Huang Chang hatefully glared at the blazing Long Chen . He had never thought that someone he was toying with in battle would evolve to such a level .

“Die Long Chen!”

Now that he had received the order from Xia Changfeng, Huang Chang let out a b.e.s.t.i.a.l roar and suddenly his Blood Qi filled the sky . His entire body seemed as if it was completely engulfed in blood and become entirely red, even his eyes .

“What?!”

“He can use the Great Blood Explosion Technique?!”

“That’s insane!”

Those n.o.blemen of the Phoenix Cry Empire all cried out in alarm as they all recognized this technique .

The Great Blood Explosion Technique was an extremely terrifying secret art . It would be used if and only if a Blood Condensation expert met with foes that they absolutely could not defeat and were pushed to the breaking point . Only then would they make such a ruthless decision and use it .

The Great Blood Explosion Technique ignited the entire body’s Blood Qi as the price for temporarily increasing one’s battle strength . It would let the user double in strength .

But the price was extremely terrible . Once using it, the blood essence you had condensed would be completely burnt away . Even if you lived, your cultivation base would freeze and you would never be able to progress for the rest of your life .

This kind of situation was rarely seen . Unless it was an absolute last resort, no one would use it . But now Huang Chang had actually used it .

Grandmaster Yun Qi noticed those stunned n.o.blemen and couldn’t help sighing . The Phoenix Cry Empire truly was hopeless . Despite such a genius appearing, none of them went to help Long Chen .

No matter what, he was the son of Zhenyuan Hou who had great accomplishments and contributions to the empire .

Zhenyuan Hou had been fighting along the border for over ten years, fighting back the savages off the barbarian tribes and letting the Phoenix Cry Empire enjoy an age of peace .
