Chapter 1706: Surging Fury
Long Chen had reacted immediately, but he was still one step too slow . That person still managed to toss the paG.o.da into the spatial gate .
Long Chen was enraged . He hadn’t expected someone to be able to sneak their way here without him even sensing it . Although he didn’t know what that person was doing, it definitely wasn’t something good .
In his fury, he slashed Evilmoon at the figure .
“Long Chen, patiently await your death, hahaha!”
That figure was enveloped by divine runes that covered his true face . However, he sounded masculine and young .
Those runes around him began to fade in the face of Long Chen’s saber . His entire body faded along with them, vanis.h.i.+ng .
“Star Fall!”
Long Chen was startled . He had clearly locked onto this fellow, but the latter had instantly escaped his lock . This was his first time encountering such a thing .
Without even thinking about it, as his saber landed on nothing, Long Chen raised his left hand, unleas.h.i.+ng Star Fall toward the s.p.a.ce not far from him .
BOOM!
s.p.a.ce exploded, revealing the figure that had already fled a hundred miles . He was forced out of hiding by Long Chen’s attack .
“Raging Flame Prison!”
Long Chen formed one-handed seals, and golden flames condensed in the distance, forming a giant cage .
“Your reactions are fast, but unfortunately, you still can’t hold me!”
That figure suddenly began to s.h.i.+ne, and eight strange symbols appeared around him . When those symbols appeared, the energy of heaven and earth began to move slower . Long Chen hastily forced the Raging Flame Prison to close, but it was still a bit too slow .
That person suddenly took out a sword, which was inscribed with countless tiny runes . It was like a ruler used by a tailor .
That sword swung through the air, causing countless runes to explode in the air . Long Chen was surprised .
“Explode!” Long Chen directly detonated the Raging Flame Prison, causing flames to devour that s.p.a.ce, crumbling it . Within those flames, that figure coughed up blood, not having expected Long Chen to do such a thing .
Long Chen had no idea what kind of magical art this person was using, but he had already managed to sneak his way out from between the chains of the Raging Flame Prison . That was why Long Chen had been forced to detonate it first .
“Heavenly Fate Island! You really are courting death!”
Long Chen finally guessed this person’s ident.i.ty . Only the people from Heavenly Fate Island could screen themselves from fate while still disturbing the lines of karma . It was no wonder the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art also didn’t manage to sense them .
As for that strange sword, it was no sword . It was actually a ruler, a special one used to appraise the very heavens . It was the specific weapon of Heavenly Fate Island .
This ruler was covered in runes used to read the lines of fate . Whether it was for attacking or defending, it would calculate the weakest aspect of an opponent’s attack or defense, allowing the user to easily dodge or counterattack .
The appearance of the sword was just to cover up the fact that it was a ruler . However, while making it look like a sword might be able to trick others, it couldn’t escape Long Chen’s sixth sense .
“Don’t you think saying that is already meaningless? You should think about how you plan on dying instead . ”
That person didn’t argue with Long Chen’s declaration . Instead, he cut a cross in the air with his ruler, tearing through s.p.a.ce and vanis.h.i.+ng within it .
That ruler was something capable of measuring the heavens, the earth, and all things in between . To be able to easily find spatial nodes within this turbulent s.p.a.ce was something only Heavenly Fate Island’s experts were capable of .
This time, he hadn’t used some kind of teleportation art but a true spatial transfer . Even if Long Chen caused the surrounding s.p.a.ce to explode, he wouldn’t be able to drag that expert out . He had already fled an extremely great distance .
That expert had vanished . Far away from Long Chen, Meng Qi, Chu Yao, Tang Wan-er, Gu Yang, and the others joined hands to attack the long-haired man . He was now charging toward the widened spatial channel .
Liu Ruyan formed hand seals, sending a heaven-encompa.s.sing net of willow branches . No matter how the long-haired man tried, he couldn’t get out . However, just as he was about to be captured…
BOOM!
The long-haired man ended up roaring furiously . His wings and crystal core unleashed blinding light as he self-detonated . His detonation blew apart Liu Ruyan’s branches .
“Boss, what do we do?”
Guo Ran and the others flew over . They were looking at the spatial gate that was still growing larger . They had no idea what to do .
Just at this moment, cracks began to appear in the s.p.a.ce around the spatial gate . The void began to explode, and web-like cracks spread .
BOOM!
The entire underground s.p.a.ce collapsed . Li Qi and Song Mingyuan slammed their earthen giants’ hands on the ground, forming a huge bubble that covered everyone .
