Chapter 1560: Five-Point Star Pierces the Dome of the Sky
Divine might shook the sky. That huge bone claw was an incredibly powerful divine item that Hu Xiaolin had taken out.
This was a divine item left behind by one of the Darkwing Devil Tiger race’s ancestors. It was the remains a terrifying expert of their race had left behind. All the power of that expert’s cultivation base was condensed within it.
Amongst the three of them, the most infuriated one would have to be the one who had been slapped in the face, had his nose broken, and his b.a.l.l.s crushed, Yan Weishan.
However, he had actually endured, while Hu Xiaolin had taken out a divine item first. This was because of Long Chen’s dragon pressure. Hu Xiaolin was unable to bring out all of his power because of it, resulting in him being the weakest amongst them.
When the three of them worked together, due to his large body, he was unable to cooperate nimbly. He could only wait at the side and look for opportunities. He, a heavenly genius of the Xuan Beasts, had actually turned into a mere extra with everyone watching.
That was unacceptable to him. However, the other two also refused to be the first to take out a divine item.
That was because being the first one to take out a divine item would represent that that person was the first to be unable to go on without one. That was why the three of them had continued fighting without them, but Hu Xiaolin couldn’t endure any longer. He was extremely sullen inside. All he wanted was to kill Long Chen. Not bothering with anything else, he became the first to take out a divine item, his giant bone claw.
A terrifying pressure caused even the distant spectators to feel like s.p.a.ce had frozen. They felt that this divine item was different from other divine items. It was even more terrifying, even more powerful.
“I just knew you are the weakest,” laughed Long Chen.
Hu Xiaolin almost coughed up blood. Just being the first to take out a divine item was embarra.s.sing enough, but now Long Chen had added salt into his wound.
Long Chen was fearless in the face of the bone claw. Instead, he was excited. His battle intent had been ignited.
“Break!” A black saber appeared in Long Chen’s hands, and a huge saber-image soared into the sky, slas.h.i.+ng the bone claw.
BOOM! Divine light exploded. Huge waves spread through s.p.a.ce like an angry tsunami.
This was the dreadful power of divine items. The surrounding s.p.a.ce around them exploded.
Long Chen and Hu Xiaolin were both blown away. Yan Weishan and Jin Mingwei were at the core of the battlefield and were the first to be affected by their divine power. However, divine light appeared around them as well, protecting them.
A golden cauldron appeared above Yan Weishan, emitting waves of golden light that protected him.
As for Jin Mingwei, the gourd on his waist was now above his head. Waves of Blood Qi came from it, preventing Jin Mingwei from being affected by the shockwaves of the divine items.
“Why is it that their divine items are able to release such power in their hands? Could it be that they’re already powerful enough to use divine items?” cried out someone.
Previously, people had seen the Empyreans fighting Guo Ran, Meng Qi, and the others wielding divine items. However, they weren’t able to unleash this much power from their divine items.
“It’s not that they’re fully using their divine items, but that their divine items are above ordinary divine items,” explained the Empyrean from the neutral camp.
Only Empyreans in possession of divine items were qualified to understand the difference between divine items. Some of these people hadn’t even seen divine items before, so they naturally didn’t know that divine items were cla.s.sified according to different levels.
The divine items in these Empyreans’ hands were at most quasi divine items. They didn’t have innate divine runes.
However, even quasi divine items weren’t something that they were qualified to use. They couldn’t activate their true divine power.
The reason Hu Xiaolin, Jin Mingwei, and Yan Weishan’s divine items were able to unleash such power wasn’t because they could control them, but because of the divine items themselves. The power of divine items was so great that they could destroy the world, but it was also because of their great power that they had to be sealed with restrictions when they were made. Otherwise, if a divine item attacked its master, the world would be thrown into chaos.
Divine items themselves were only able to control a very small portion of their power. Ninety-nine percent of their power required a person to activate.
That was why although some of the spectators possessed divine items, none of them had a divine item that could unleash such power. They couldn’t even unleash a tenth of their divine items’ power.
However, these principles were only known by Empyreans. The others didn’t have that much understanding of divine items. All they knew was that Long Chen and Hu Xiaolin’s exchange was an apocalyptic one.
Even from such a distance, they were shaken by the divine might. They didn’t even dare to move.
Long Chen rested Evilmoon on his shoulder. Holding Evilmoon, he was full of confidence as well as an intense desire to fight. This was still his favorite way of fighting. Simple hacks of a saber were what made him feel the most content.
“Tell me, why bother testing me bit by bit? Shouldn’t you have brought out your divine items earlier? How is this any different from taking off your pants to fart? Even tigers use their full power to hunt down a rabbit. Well, there’s just one thing I want to ask you: does your face not hurt?”
