Chapter 1558: A Battle Between Dragons and Tigers

The blood-colored hand appeared out of nowhere, but as soon as it did, an evil air filled the air. The wails of millions of ghosts could be heard.

The large hand blocked the sun, and a cold killing intent locked onto Long Chen. Long Chen was startled by Jin Mingwei’s attack. The cries of the ghosts were actually a spiritual attack that caused him to feel like s.p.a.ce was thrown into chaos.

A lightning blade immediately appeared in Long Chen’s left hand, and he slashed it at the blood-colored hand.

BOOM! The hand was cut in two. Blood Qi filled the air, emitting a nauseating scent.

As Long Chen cut apart the hand, it revealed Jin Mingwei’s sinister face. He had a bloodthirsty smile on his face as he smashed his fist at Long Chen.

Jin Mingwei’s manifestation had appeared behind him. His manifestation was also not just a ma.s.s of primal chaos. Instead, it was scarlet like blood. Various terrifying lifeforms seemed to rise and fall within his manifestation.

Blood runes revolved around his fist. There was also blood-colored armor on his arm.

Long Chen hastily blocked it with his own fist, but he was blown back. What shocked Long Chen was that Jin Mingwei’s power was extremely strange. With the support of his manifestation, he wasn’t any weaker than Hu Xiaolin.

“Long Chen, did you really think controlling the Heaven Incinerating Flame would allow you to dominate the Flame Dao? Today, I’ll show you that there are many powerful flames not any weaker than the Heaven Incinerating Flame.” Yan Weishan suddenly raised his flame spear, and red flames exploded out of his body. Those flames were the same color as blood.

His manifestation rumbled behind him. Vague images of high mountains could be seen within, but it was too vague to see anything clearly.

As his manifestation rumbled, his spear, which was originally one composed of flames, became solid. It was the same as a real spear, and divine runes circulated around it.

“Heavens, the three of them have reached the initial awakening of their manifestations!”

Hu Xiaolin, Jin Mingwei, and Yan Weishan surrounded Long Chen. Three powerful Empyreans, with their manifestations at full power, emitted such pressure that it terrified everyone.

If it was anyone else, even another Empyrean, then let alone fighting, they might not even have the courage to raise their weapons. That was a pressure that caused despair.

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Although many people had thought that Long Chen’s final fate would be to die here, they hadn’t expected it to require three powerful experts to kill him.

“Long Chen, last time, I was too late to kill you when you stepped into the Corrupt path’s sacred land. This time, you won’t be able to get away no matter what. I want to suck all your essence blood dry.” Jin Mingwei licked his lips with a bloodthirsty light in his eyes.

Jin Mingwei had a very intense desire for essence blood, especially the essence blood of experts. He couldn’t resist that allure, as that was related to his cultivation technique. He had to consume the essence blood of experts to cultivate.

“There’s no blood, but there’s p.i.s.s. Do you want to drink it?” asked Long Chen calmly.

Even in such a tense situation, Long Chen’s reply caused people’s expressions to turn odd.

“Courting death!” Jin Mingwei roared and sent another punch at Long Chen.

What no one expected was that Long Chen simply let out a single palm to face Jin Mingwei’s punch. A lightning rune appeared on his palm, and it shattered the blood runes around Jin Mingwei’s fist, allowing Long Chen to catch his fist.

At this moment, Hu Xiaolin also attacked. A claw the size of a mountain crashed toward Long Chen.

Hu Xiaolin was still maintaining his Xuan Beast form. Only in this form could he threaten Long Chen. If he returned to his human form, his power would sharply drop.

However, his huge body was not convenient for the others that fought alongside him. Long Chen suddenly twisted his body, pulling Jin Mingwei toward Hu Xiaolin’s claw.

Then without even looking, Long Chen slashed his flame blade at Yan Weishan who was coming right at him.

Their two flame weapons clashed. Flames exploded, causing s.p.a.ce to twist. The golden and blood-colored flames raged, looking like the apocalypse.

Fortunately, people were far away enough that they weren’t affected by the flames. Once the flames faded, the ground had been turned black, and a stinging scent hung in the air.

Long Chen had just blocked Yan Weishan’s attack when another bang rang out behind him. Jin Mingwei had been sent flying by Hu Xiaolin. Due to Long Chen’s move, he was not on guard against Hu Xiaolin, while Hu Xiaolin had attacked with his full power. Jin Mingwei coughed up a mouthful of blood.

“Hu Xiaolin, you’re courting death!” roared Jin Mingwei.

“You’re the one who flew over! What does it have to do with me?!” retorted Jin Mingwei.

All the distant experts saw it clearly. Long Chen’s movements were extremely clean.
