Chapter 51 – Mysterious Metal SlateTranslated by:Edited by:TLCed by: OMA
At this point, the strange phenomenon in Burning Heavens Mountain Plains gradually vanished and Long Chen was able to feel that the temperature of the earth beneath his feet had decreased too.
As for the two in battle it should have been after seeing the metal slate, which was the source of this heaven-defying flame, that made them kill each other for greed.
“Chen Xiongzhou! You don’t want your life anymore! I have told you earlier, let me have it this time, and if I were able to reap its benefits, naturally I will share them with you!”
“You think I am a fool? After obtaining it I’m afraid the first person you’d kill is me huh? This metal slate can invoke such a huge fire, so how can it be a simple item?”
“Good! Good! If you are so stubborn in wanting to die then don’t blame me, Feng Mingyang, for being vicious!”
“[Forward Fiendish Rising Punch]!”
The two of the eighth level Dragon Pulse Realm experts had, at this point, brought forth all of their skills, and started a death match with each other!
Seeing their constantly changing expressions, Long Chen thought of what Founder Yang had said before: “The world is governed by martial techniques, and if one places too much faith in a brother, there will come a day when he will pay the price. However, if it is someone who is hot-blooded, then it is a different story!”
This match was extremely intense and both of the eighth level cultivator, had battle strength that was a little higher than Bai Zhanxiong. Thankfully, it was happening inside the Desolate Beast Domain so there was nothing much to be destroyed. Otherwise, their battle would have caused a huge mess!
Both of them had similar strength and it all boiled down to who had the better reflexes. Feng Mingyang’s body was much more agile than Chen Xiongzhou so in the end Chen Xiongzhou had an extremely unwilling expression as he was killed by a punch. Feng Mingyang was drenched in blood which suggested that he was in a critical state!
But thinking that he had finally defeated Chen Xiongzhou and managed to obtain the strange metal slate, his eyes blazed with desire.
“Chen Xiongzhou, I gave you the option to not fight with me for it, but you don’t know your place and it serves you right that you’re dead! However don’t worry; after I obtain this mysterious metal slate my cultivation will progress rapidly and I will take good care of your wife and son! After all, your wife is much prettier than mine!”
As he spat several times on Chen Xiongzhou’s corpse he never imagined that there would have been some blood mixed in with it. Feng Mingyang was startled by the sight and, after giving another vicious look at Chen Xiongzhou, only then did he slowly limp towards the mysterious metal slate.
Thinking of the metal slate which had caused such a huge phenomenon, he became extremely excited!
“This sc.u.m, earlier he had called him brother but then killed him for the treasure, and now he still wants to hit on the dead person’s wife! Long Chen!”
Seeing that Feng Mingyang had this kind of character, Lingxi was extremely furious and the big pair of eyes on her miniature body showing an extremely disgusted expression.
Seeing that Lingxi had commanded him to attack, Long Chen did not hesitate. At this point, he was already under [Dragon Soul Transformation] and his strength was much stronger than Feng Mingyang. Suddenly, a red gust of whirlwind appeared in front of Feng Mingyang and the metal slate was positioned behind Long Chen. Feng Mingyang had to get past him to get it!
“Beast Warrior?!”
Feng Mingyang eyes revealed a shocked expression but after seeing Long Chen standing in his path for the metal slate, which he had fought and killed for, his expression instantly revealed signs of madness and even though he was critically injured he still wildly charged towards Long Chen.
“You wish to defeat me in your current state?”
Long Chen smirked and with his formidable [Dragon Soul Transformation] his speed had a huge boost, letting him becoming even more agile. At this point, Feng Mingyang who was only several metres in front of him, wanted to drag his heavily injured body and wildly use a martial technique on Long Chen. Instead, his whole body was sent flying by a punch from Long Chen!
After being hit by Long Chen along with his already severely injured body, he spurted a mouthful of blood and neared his last breath, never being able to get up ever again.
Long Chen knew that if he did not save Feng Mingyang, Feng Mingyang would definitely die in this Desolate Beast Domain. Also, since he already punched him why would he save him?
Feng Mingyang struggled to keep his eyes opened and as he saw Long Chen who was approaching closer he unwillingly asked: “You……Who are you?”
Seeing the extreme unwillingness in his eyes, Long Chen thought of when he had pretended to be a ‘grandson’ for so long and he sneered in his heart as he removed the [Dragon Soul Transformation].
As he saw Long Chen’s true ident.i.ty, Feng Mingyang face was first filled with utter shock and disbelief, then swiftly turning into extreme unwillingness. Under this shocking revelation he, who had been on the verge of death, finally stopped breathing and went to the Yellow Springs.
[TL Note: (Chinese): Yellow Springs – The Underworld]
Seeing his corpse, Long Chen sneered and said: “Earlier both of you wished to kill me and now you can’t blame me since Chen Xiongzhou contributed to your death.”
“Hey, he gave us the Dream Spirit Gra.s.s before and yet we killed him like this, isn’t this too bad?” Lingxi hesitated.
“Not all good things have to be repaid. For people like them who had only wanted to get rid of me for the benefits for fear of me taking what they had wanted, this is almost like a deal and there is nothing to feel bad about.”
Lingxi’s face darkened and said: “Then, I had saved you twice earlier, and now you are searching the Dream Spirit Gra.s.s for me, is this considered a deal too?”
Long Chen was stunned and said in an annoyed manner: “Do you have the brains of a donkey?”
