Chapter 1193 Berserk Energy

s.p.a.ce trembled as Long Chen and Li Wanji appeared on top of an ancient martial stage . The surroundings of the martial stage were filled with mist so that the two of them couldn’t see anything outside the stage .

But from the palace hall where Xia Youluo and the others were, they could see them clearly . There was a projection at the center of the hall showing the martial stage .

It was an incredibly clear projection that made it feel like it was the real thing . Even the pressure coming from the two of them could be sensed clearly .

Everyone stopped breathing . Every person here was an expert in their own rights, and they all liked to see other experts exchanging blows in order to confirm their own strength .

“Long Chen, I’ll make you pay a price for your words . ” Li Wanji icily looked at Long Chen, her aura gradually condensing .

Runes erupted into existence behind her . Her manifestation appeared, causing immense pressure to crash down on Long Chen .

This formless energy was like an invisible hand tightly gripping Long Chen . It was Li Wanji’s aura-lock .

Sensing how easily she had locked him down, she sneered . “Looks like I overestimated you . I can beat you in just one move . ”

Her sword came flying out of the scabbard, and people were unable to see how she even unsheathed it . All they saw was a fierce and sharp ray of light shooting toward Long Chen .

Sparks flew . Long Chen hadn’t released any of his aura . There was a blood-red saber in front of him, blocking Li Wanji’s sword .

That incredibly powerful attack from Li Wanji was easily blocked by Long Chen, causing everyone to jump in shock .

“He blocked it with just his physical strength . ” Xia Yunchong was filled with shock . Although he had given Long Chen a high estimate on his strength, he still hadn’t thought Long Chen was this powerful . Even without using his spiritual yuan, he easily blocked this attack .

Furthermore, he didn’t even budge . It was like all Li Wanji’s force was no greater than a dragonfly trying to shake a tree . Her attack wasn’t even qualified to shake him .

Long Chen’s expression was calm, like a rippleless well . He raised his saber, looking at Li Wanji coldly .

In truth, he wasn’t calm inside . That was because after reaching the fourth Heavenstage of Foundation Forging, his strength was no longer perfectly under his control . He had grown stronger without even sensing it .

Because the strengthening of his physical body couldn’t match the potency of his 108,000 immortal platforms, he couldn’t sense the exact power of his physical body .

But today, now that he was fighting, he sensed that the power of his physical body had unconsciously risen .

“Take another attack from me!” Li Wanji leaped into the air, hacking her sword down . This time sword-light exploded and the void was torn apart .

BOOM! Li Wanji’s attack shook the martial stage, and a qi wave erupted, causing all the disciples in the palace hall to jump and hastily raise their hands to block it .

But they quickly laughed involuntarily . What they were seeing was simply a projection of another s.p.a.ce . It looked realistic, but none of their power could reach them, let alone menace them .

When the qi wave scattered, they were once more shocked . The expressions of the experts from the Grand Han all changed .

At this time, Long Chen was standing there, still with his emotionless expression . The angle of his saber hadn’t s.h.i.+fted at all . Blooddrinker was blocking Li Wanji’s sword .

“How… how is this possible?!”

The Grand Han’s experts were filled with shock . Long Chen still hadn’t released his aura . He was just using his physical strength .

Li Wanji was an extremely powerful expert within the Grand Han . She was the strongest junior genius besides the Three Monarchs .

With a cultivation base at the eighth Heavenstage of Foundation Forging, as an innate rank eight Celestial, she possessed incredible power . The Grand Han placed a great deal of importance on raising her . But now, she didn’t even have the qualifications to shake Long Chen . How could they not be shocked?

“So he really was powerful . You just couldn’t tell from his appearance . ” Xia Youluo’s heart was shaken as she watched .

Her spiritual perception had sensed that Long Chen was an extremely terrifying existence . It had told her that he had immense power that he hadn’t revealed yet .

But then after her first encounter with him, he had been nothing more than a laughing scoundrel without the slightest propriety . He didn’t have the slightest air of an expert .

Then in the Wine G.o.d Palace, he had acted like a complete swindler . After taking their wine, that petty, pleased smile of his had made Xia Youluo forget he was a terrifying expert .

Now Li Wanji had attacked him twice, but Long Chen was like an immovable mountain .

The current Long Chen seemed like a different person compared to his normally laughing self . Although he had yet to even attack, that domineering air in his bones was already starting to manifest .
