Chapter 81 Both Sides Heavily Wounded
“Void Breaking Slas.h.!.+”
Waves of Qi completely constricted Long Chen . That sword seemed completely unstoppable .
That was Ying Hou’s most powerful sword technique . Long Chen knew that it was definitely also an Earth cla.s.s Battle Skill, and it was even more terrifying than the one he had used before . The powerful aura completely locked him in place .
Facing death, Long Chen’s mind was completely calm . He entered a strange state at this moment . He seemed to have grasped everything within heaven and earth . Ten thousand laws and Daos, every single creature and object, everything was clearly captured within his mind right now .
He felt as if he had already escaped from his body and was looking on as an observer .
What Long Chen didn’t know at this time was that his FengFu Star had become completely static at this time as if it was waiting for some kind of enlightenment . It was a shame that Long Chen hadn’t noticed .
Spiritual qi rushed towards his twelve cyclones . They explosively grew and a cord-like energy surged through Long Chen’s meridians to enter the broadsword in his hands .
“Split the Heavens!”
Strange lines appeared over the broadsword and it seemed to come alive . It cut through a mysterious arc, imposing just like an overpowering dragon . This was Long Chen’s strongest attack .
BOOM! Waves of Qi exploded outwards . Both of them were sent flying back, blood filling the sky .
Long Chen’s broadsword had been sent flying back hundreds of meters, only stopping once it sunk deep into a boulder .
Vomiting out blood, Long Chen felt that his whole body was about to collapse and his aura plummeted .
A dozen cuts appeared on his body from which blood unceasingly flowed out of . But what was worse was that his entire body’s meridians had been cracked, just a bit away from completely breaking apart .
And this was after Long Chen had gained the experience of using Split the Heavens last time . So when he used it this time, he had used his entire body’s meridians in order to brunt the explosive force that came from it .
But because he had used even greater force that last time, he was really only just the slightest bit away from truly becoming a completely crippled person .
It was possible to regrow a small portion of destroyed meridians . That was because you could follow the ‘memories’ of the meridians before it . But if all the meridians in the body were destroyed, even with a Pill G.o.d’s memories, Long Chen would be completely powerless to fix it .
The current him was now unable to use even the slightest trace of spiritual qi . His cracked meridians were unable to bear any force at the moment .
On the other side, Ying Hou’s condition was not that much better than Long Chen’s . The sword in his hand had shattered explosively, its fragments cutting into both of them .
If it was just outer wounds then Ying Hou would still be able to use his powerful cultivation base to suppress them . But having used his most powerful attack just now, he had lost control of the extremely toxic poison inside him . Only the slightest trace of that corrosive poison had entered his heart just now .
But just that slight trace caused his heart to show signs of withering . That completely terrified Ying Hou and he hastily used his spiritual qi to defend against the poison’s invasion .
Long Chen took a deep breath and slowly stood up . Going over to his broadsword, he pulled it out of the rock, and slowly began to walk over to Ying Hou .
He could see a bit of blackness on Ying Hou’s forehead . That was one of the signs that the poison had reached his heart . It also meant that Ying Hou was like him and couldn’t use his spiritual qi .
Now he would use his powerful physical body to go kill Ying Hou .
Long Chen wanted to rush over and split him in two, but his body was unbearably weak . Blood was flowing from the dozen wounds caused by Ying Hou’s shattered sword . If it weren’t for his powerful physical body, he would have already run out of blood . But even so, bursts of dizziness caused him to feel as if he might faint at any time .
But he couldn’t fall just yet . Even though he was already out of energy, his eyes were still calm without the slightest trace of emotion as he slowly walked towards Ying Hou .
“Ying Zhao, now the one who will die is you . ”
Long Chen raised his sword and slashed down at Ying Hou .
Ying Hou was worried to see that Long Chen still had the strength to come attack him . He hastily rolled to the side . When the broadsword slashed right past his cheeks, it was so close that he could feel the icy coldness coming from it .
“d.a.m.n, he actually still has so much strength!”
Ying Hou’s expression finally changed . That was the first time he had felt fear from an insignificant Qi Condensation ant . He was especially afraid of Long Chen’s completely calm eyes .
Long Chen was just like a deep well . He only revealed the slightest bit on the surface, but as for how deep he was, no one knew .
Ying Hou could sense the steady killing intent overflowing from him . Now he was at an absolute disadvantage . Without his spiritual qi, he was not a match for Long Chen’s physical body .
“Just treat it as you being lucky today!”
Ying Hou coldly sneered and actually turned to flee .
“You want to run? Leave behind your life first!”
Long Chen shouted and charged forward in chase .
However the broadsword in his hand was too heavy and he was actually unable to catch up . In just a few short moments, he had already lost Ying Hou’s tail .
Seeing Ying Hou disappear, the anger on Long Chen’s face faded to be replaced by relief . He suddenly felt the world spinning around him and his vision blackened as he lost consciousness .
…
Ying Hou was celebrating that Long Chen was unable to catch up to him . Long Chen’s physical body might be powerful, but his attacking strength resided with that broadsword .
Now that broadsword had become a burden and caused him to be unable to catch up to him, letting Ying Hou relax . However he didn’t know that Long Chen was actually completely spent . He had used up all his final energy to put on an act to scare him off .
