Chapter 536
Long Chen didn’t know how long he had been unconscious for . He felt like he was floating in the clouds, and the only thing he could do was stubbornly keep hold of Little Snow’s fur . When he finally opened his eyes, he saw a barren desert before him .
His whole body ached, and his bones felt like they might fall apart . He hastily consumed a healing pill .
As the medicinal energy gradually spread, the pain faded, but his physical body had reached a monstrous level now and healing pills were having less and less effect on his body .
“Little Snow, how long have we been running?”
“Aowu!”
“A day and a night?!” Long Chen was startled, not expecting that he had been unconscious for so long . After thinking about it for a minute, he supposed that it had to do with that d.a.m.nable Cry of the Heavenly Daos .
It had been especially taxing to fight Yin Wushang when he had activated that ability . Furthermore, with his current physical body’s natural recovery abilities, a day and a night was enough for him to heal slightly even without medicinal pills .
However, it was as if some mysterious energy was inhibiting his recovery, which made him furious .
“These d.a.m.nable Heavenly Daos, they always have to target me . Just wait!”
Just thinking of his fight with Yin Wushang made him furious . That Cry of the Heavenly Daos was definitely bullying . No, it was practically cheating!
Eighty percent of the power in his attacks was blocked by the Heavenly Dao runes, but Yin Wushang’s attacks multiplied in power . This was his first time experiencing such a sullen fight .
“What a freak!” Long Chen spat in hate .
But if others were to hear that, they would definitely curse him to death . Just who was the freak?
Celestials were termed the favorites of heaven and earth, the heavenly geniuses of the world . Karmic luck blessed them, and fighting across realms was as easy as having a meal to them .
In this world, it was practically unheard of for someone to fight across realms against a Celestial . If Long Chen’s battle accomplishments ended up becoming public, it would definitely shake the entire cultivation world .
Not only was Long Chen able to battle across realms against a Celestial, but he had almost killed one . If a Celestial was a freak, then Long Chen was a freak amongst freaks .
It could be said that this battle counted as a victory, but he knew that his win was only because of luck . Yin Wushang was definitely feeling irritated now .
His defeat had been entirely because of his conceit . Long Chen was sure he had even more powerful techniques, but he hadn’t used them .
In the beginning, when Yin Wushang had been shocked by his abilities, he mostly felt that it was a blow to his dignity and had wanted to use the grandest method to crush him to regain his honor . That was a Celestial’s pride and arrogance .
But for that pride, Yin Wushang had ended up paying a harsh price . If he had treated Long Chen seriously, then Long Chen would never have had a chance to release his combination wind flame attack with Little Snow .
That attack’s power had already surpa.s.sed the level of a Heaven cla.s.s Battle Skill, as the flame energy did not come from a beast flame, but an Earth Flame .
If Long Chen had not held back a portion of its energy, Yin Wushang would have been turned to ashes by the attack .
But in that scenario, he himself wouldn’t have been able to block it, and he would also have been incinerated .
The fact that Yin Wushang had spent an ocean’s worth of spiritual qi to activate his Ancient Blood Divine s.h.i.+eld and still almost been killed was enough to prove how terrifying that attack was .
It was only because of this that Yin Wushang had run out of spiritual qi and been injured . After that, he was unable to use any of his more powerful techniques and thus was almost killed .
It could be said that Long Chen’s victory had been extremely lucky . That allowed him to see just how terrifying Celestials were .
“Little Snow, spit out a wind blade to cut a ditch in the ground . ”
Opening his mouth, a wind blade shot out of it, creating a hundred-mile gorge that was several meters deep and wide .
Long Chen then had Little Snow run within that gorge . The terrain here was a desert, and the ground was very soft . But there was very little wind here to cover up tracks . By cutting open this gorge, his footprints would be hidden as the sand flowed back in .
The next thing he had Little Snow do was spit out multiple wind blades from one location, creating multiple paths that would mislead any trackers .
