Chapter 1744 (2/2)

“What the f.u.c.k, how can a tortoise be so fast?! That makes no sense! Hey, what breed of tortoise are you? How come I’ve never seen a tortoise that can run as fast as you?!” shouted Long Chen as he ran .

“Courting death!” The Netherpa.s.sage expert’s life and death energy suddenly transformed into a hurricane that pushed him on, increasing his speed even further . He almost caught up to Long Chen instantly .

“What?! Back in my day, there were tortoises everywhere, but none were like this!” Long Chen suddenly formed hand seals, turning the surrounding region into his lightning domain . He instantly dodged to the edge of the domain .

Doing this repeatedly, he was essentially teleporting away . He pushed the Celestial Lightning Body Blink to its maximum power .

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, how can you be so fast?!”

The Netherpa.s.sage expert roared furiously . After just a few blinks, Long Chen was almost out of the expert’s vision . If this continued, he really would get away .

“Life and Death Gates, Open!”

A black gate appeared in front of the Netherpa.s.sage expert . He charged through it, vanis.h.i.+ng . Up ahead, in front of Long Chen, a white gate appeared which he reappeared out of . This move was somewhat similar to Long Chen’s Celestial Lightning Body Blink .

He wasn’t as fast as Long Chen when it came to activating this art, but the distance he crossed was much greater . Like this, he was unable to catch up to Long Chen, but Long Chen was also unable to throw him off .

The experts in the Eastern Xuan City saw Long Chen injure the Netherpa.s.sage expert with his saber before fleeing, while the Netherpa.s.sage expert roared furiously and chased after . The two of them instantly vanished from sight afterward .

“This speed…”

These experts were unable to describe this level of speed . They had never heard of this kind of speed, let alone personally witnessed it .

“Clearly, Xiang Yunfei challenging Long Chen with his clone was just a joke . Long Chen didn’t even use his full power to kill his clone . ”

“You’re right . Long Chen knew there was a Netherpa.s.sage expert here and still jumped into their trap . Even in front of the guard of a Netherpa.s.sage expert, he still managed to slay Xiang Yunfei’s clone . He didn’t even place that Netherpa.s.sage expert in his eyes . That means he still has many trump cards he has yet to reveal . He obviously didn’t want to waste them here . ”

Experts were all like that . If they didn’t feel a.s.sured of killing their target or getting something out of it, who would foolishly expose their own trump cards? That was meaningless .

“However, Xiang Yunfei also isn’t weak . Although a clone would theoretically possess eighty percent of the power of the true body, due to his lack of bloodline power and Heavenly Bone Spears, his clone was far weaker than his true body . ”

“That’s true . Most experts only use their clones to increase their combat comprehension and cultivation insights . It’s just that Xiang Yunfei underestimated Long Chen . The destruction of his clone should cause a great deal of harm to him . He’ll be missing part of his soul and blood . However, with the Barbarian Mammoth race’s ancestral spirit protection, he should be able to recover . ”

“This kind of humiliation will definitely infuriate Xiang Yunfei . There will be a true earth-shaking battle between them in the future . ”

Heavenly geniuses were most afraid of having their Dao-hearts shrouded . Xiang Yunfei had now lost his clone to Long Chen, and that was sure to leave a shadow on his heart . If he didn’t defeat Long Chen with his true body, it would very likely become a heart-devil .

That was why whether it was because of Long Chen’s enmity with the ancient races or because he had killed his clone, Xiang Yunfei would definitely have a b.l.o.o.d.y battle against Long Chen . This was already set in stone .

“What do you guys think? Who’s stronger, Long Chen or Xiang Yunfei?”

Everyone fell silent, thinking about this . The majority of people shook their heads, unable to come to any conclusions .

“Is the world of heavenly geniuses a place people like us can step into? Don’t waste the effort thinking about it . Just happily look up at them,” said an Empyrean . He patted the dust off his clothes, summoned a flying boat, and left .

Even a powerful Empyrean said such a thing . His voice had been full of bitterness and discouragement, causing the others to also feel sad .

Wasn’t that precisely the case? They weren’t even close to the same level . They were fundamentally different existences . Even an Empyrean was given such a blow, let alone the Celestials . Even their excitement at having witnessed such a battle faded .

“You can’t put it like that . The great era has come, and fate is in flux . We might be weak now, but who would dare guarantee that we might not soar like a shooting star tomorrow? So keep your dreams . After all, who said that you have to settle just because you weren’t born in the right background or with good talent? Isn’t Long Chen the best example of this?”

“Zheng Wenlong!”

Everyone looked up to see that the speaker was standing at the top of the Huayun Sect’s building . Zheng Wenlong was smiling faintly .

“The Huayun Sect doesn’t let us gamble, but if we could, I, Zheng Wenlong, would gamble everything on Long Chen’s victory . ”

After saying that, Zheng Wenlong vanished from their sight . The battle had ended . Looking at the empty battlefield to the direction that Long Chen and the Netherpa.s.sage expert had vanished, everyone else also slowly scattered .
