Chapter 1023

Long Chen coughed up blood . He hadn’t thought this silver lizard would be so crafty . At the same time as it had attacked him from the front, it had silently sent out its long tail to strike him from behind as well .

If he had been struck directly, then even with his powerful physical body, he would probably have had all his bones broken . Anyone else would just explode instantly .

Stabilizing himself, Long Chen wiped off some blood from the corner of his mouth . He was just about to check the others’ situation when the silver lizard opened its mouth . A golden ray of light suddenly shot out .

Long Chen’s scalp turned numb . Without even thinking about it, he used the Lightning Body Blink to dodge to the side .

The ray of light shot right past him . It then pierced through the light barrier and struck the castle walls . A huge hole appeared in the wall . Not only that, it continued forward, killing any Bloodthirsty Devil Lizards in its way .

Through that hole in the wall, Long Chen saw many female faces . It was the Heaven Female Alliance .

Countless shocked expressions could be seen there . They had been lucky just now, as this ray of light had shot past them . But if it had been angled just a bit to the side, it would have gone right through them . That would have been a calamity they didn’t want to even imagine .

“Not good!”

Seeing the silver lizard once more open its mouth, Long Chen’s heart turned cold . The direction it was facing was the army outside . If it once more attacked, who knew if those disciples would be so lucky again?

But the silver lizard didn’t give him much time to think . Its next attack was being prepared and would come out quickly . He couldn’t dodge it again .

“Lightning Finger!”

Seeing it open its mouth, a sphere of light fully condensed inside, Long Chen quickly shot out a bolt of lightning that entered its mouth .

That silver lizard hadn’t expected Long Chen to take advantage of when it was unleas.h.i.+ng its attack . Its attack had only just formed and it hadn’t had time to release it when the lightning arrow struck it .

“Go ahead and explode . ”

BOOM!

The ball of light exploded in the lizard’s mouth . Its mouth shattered along with its lower head .

“d.a.m.nit, this monster’s aura didn’t drop at all . ” Long Chen had thought it was over now that its attack had exploded inside its head . But he suddenly realized that the heavily injured lizard’s aura was as fierce as ever .

That meant its vital point wasn’t its head . It was very likely similar to a Neidan Magical Beast . Unless its Neidan was destroyed, its body wouldn’t die .

Long Chen suddenly launched an attack, slas.h.i.+ng his saber at it . It was just an ordinary attack, because he had no time to charge up a magical art . He couldn’t give it any breathing room .

Long Chen’s saber slashed toward its head . He wanted to completely destroy its head, but it instinctively blocked with its arms .

If he could have destroyed its head with this move, then his victory would just be a matter of time . It would run out of energy eventually .

But this silver lizard’s power far exceeded Long Chen’s expectations .

If he hadn’t been lucky and managed to use his thunderforce to cause its attack to self-destruct, the consequences would have been too horrible to imagine .

It was truly worthy of being the trial for core disciples . Although it had only revealed a portion of its power, it was enough to deeply shock Long Chen . It definitely had the power to push him to the brink, and maybe even into death .

Having failed with this attack, Long Chen extended his left hand . A lightning sphere shot out . He couldn’t give it any chance to recover .

The lightning sphere exploded on the lizard’s body . It let out a bizarre cry, and its body stiffened .

Long Chen was already in the air, his saber raised . Twenty-seven of his acupuncture points had been activated, and a fierce aura soared into the sky .

Only eighteen of these acupuncture points had full-grown divine runes on them . He was able to unleash the second form of Split the Heavens perfectly, but the third form’s divine runes were still in their initial states . They were still being nourished by his spiritual yuan .

But despite that, they were strengthening with each pa.s.sing day . The power of Split the Heavens also increased with them .
