Chapter 1871: Monsters Beneath the Ground

Blinding golden light erupted . Eighteen dragon teeth had appeared out of nowhere, shooting toward the Bloodkill Hall’s divine emissary .

It happened abruptly . Just as Long Chen looked to be in desperate straits, he suddenly unleashed such a killing blow .

The assassin’s expression completely changed . He realized that Long Chen had been feigning being at a disadvantage .

Long Chen’s goal was him . For an assassin, using fifty percent of their power was a kind of limit . Any more and it would affect their ability to flee .

However, to cooperate with Huo Lieyun and make sure that Long Chen had no chance to escape, he had actually launched a blow with eighty percent of his power . Now that Long Chen had launched such a vicious killing blow, he was caught with no way to run .

A bad feeling rose in his heart, but he had no time to think about this . His manifestation shook, and the divine marks on his sword lit up . He not only activated the power of his divine item, but he also used up all his spiritual yuan to face these eighteen dragon teeth . He had no other choice .

“Bloodkill X-Slash!” The assassin’s sword swung, one time vertically and one time horizontally . Its divine light filled the air .

BOOM!

The eighteen dragon teeth smashed straight into the giant cross in the air . Eighteen explosive sounds rang out, but they were so crowded that it sounded like one .

An explosive sound also came from behind Long Chen . Huo Lieyun’s spear struck the Heaven Flipping Seal, causing it to quiver and dim rapidly . Huo Lieyun’s attack actually exhausted all its energy .

However, it had succeeded in its mission . It had blocked Huo Lieyun’s attack without Long Chen having to worry about it .

It had to be known that the Heaven Flipping Seal’s item-spirit was different from other divine items . It was new and independent . It could attack freely .

The Heaven Flipping Seal had blocked Huo Lieyun, while the golden dragon teeth were once more flying at the assassin .

What shocked the assassin was that the seemingly overbearing dragon teeth weren’t actually as strong as he had expected .

“Watch out!” People began to roar in the distance .

At some point, another eighteen dragon teeth had appeared behind the assassin, shooting toward him .

The shouting had no use . The assassin had just sensed something was wrong, but he had no time to react . Those eighteen dragon teeth blew him to pieces along with his Yuan Spirit .

“I finally got one . ” Long Chen took a deep breath . He had finally eliminated a slippery assassin . Assassins were the worst targets to try to kill, and failing would make it even more difficult next time . Assassins wouldn’t fall for the same trick twice .

The death of the Bloodkill Hall’s divine emissary shocked everyone . It happened just as Long Chen was supposed to lose his life .

Long Chen extended a hand, grabbing the Heaven Flipping Seal . He had to allow the assassin’s sword to fly away as he had no time to block it . He coldly looked at the gloomy Huo Lieyun .

Huo Lieyun was like a roaring volcano, with flames surging around him . Pointing his spear at Long Chen, he sneered, “Is sinister scheming your strongest point?”

Long Chen had been arranging this from the start . His goal from the beginning had been the assassin .

There were two conditions to kill him . One was to bait him into a position where he lost the ability to run, and the other was to have him block Long Chen from fleeing, thus drawing him into close range .

All this had been arranged by Long Chen to win him a chance to slay a slippery and difficult target .

“No, when it comes to sinister scheming, who can compare to your Pill Valley? The entire continent is within your scheming . I am nothing in comparison,” said Long Chen . “That assassin must be quite sad . He didn’t even get a chance to show off his true abilities before dying . Are you going to follow in his footsteps?”

The truth was that neither Huo Lieyun nor the Bloodkill Hall’s assassin had used their true trump cards .

No one was willing to expose their trump cards in front of so many people . Thus, the Bloodkill Hall’s assassin was definitely sullen in death .

Last time, Long Chen’s scheme had failed against Xie Luo and True Immortal Jiaoqi . After that, he had decided not to rely on schemes anymore, but it was like the heavens were forcing him into a position where he had to scheme . Killing an assassin was not so easy . Fortunately, he had succeeded this time .

“Come . The real fight can start now . If I can cut down another idiot from Pill Valley, I’ll have a drink to celebrate . ” Long Chen rested Evilmoon on his shoulder . Thirty-six dragon teeth swirled around him .

“Ignorant arrogance . You are just a lowly piece of trash . Do you think you can compare to me?” Although the assassin had been slain, Huo Lieyun was not the slightest bit uneasy . It seemed he didn’t care at all . As he spoke, a divine rune appeared on his forehead .

When that divine rune appeared, the head of a statue appeared on his manifestation, and the divine mark was present there as well .

The divine rune on the statue’s head was set ablaze . The fire grew stronger and stronger, and a powerful pressure descended .

“Long Chen, a beggar like you can’t make up for your deficit even if you were given a thousand years . Even if a beggar sees a piece of gold, they will never gain any nobility . ” Huo Lieyun’s aura changed . It gained a kind of sacred and divine presence to it .

The flames surrounding him grew stronger . Long Chen knew that this pressure didn’t belong to Huo Lieyun but his ancestors . That manifestation behind him was very likely an inherited art in his family .

This was a foundation . Long Chen truly didn’t possess such a foundation . After all, Huo Lieyun’s inheritance stretched back an unknown number of millennia, while Long Chen had nothing .

“What about this is noble? Relying on the leftovers of your ancestors makes you a noble? To put it nicely, you inherited your ancestors’ legacy, but putting it another way, you’re dependent on your ancestors, bothering them day and night . The amount of wealth you can make in your lifetime is probably less than a thousandth of what you’ve squandered . Ignoring everything else, at least a beggar has to actually go begging to live . As for you? What have you done for your household? All you’ve done is hide at home for years, turning their wealth into human excrement . ”

A vein throbbed on Huo Lieyun’s head . Long Chen’s words were like arrows piercing his heart . He had no way to retort, as he had been hidden by the Flame Divine Palace all these years, cultivating within his family .

It was just as Long Chen said; Huo Lieyun had used an endless stream of resources . It was only through this enormous amount of resources that an expert like him had been born .

“Nonsense, I am the number one genius of the Flame Divine Palace and its heir . I am Pill Valley’s choice, and what I’ve created is a legend, an achievement that will shake the world!” shouted Huo Lieyun . The flames around him continued to grow stronger .

“You should stop trying to brag . If you want to even survive to leave the Yin Yang World, you need to rely on your ancestors’ protection . I won’t be giving you a chance to create a legend,” said Long Chen .

Suddenly, the statue in Huo Liehuo’s manifestation shook . The blazing rune on his forehead spread to cover his entire body, and all the flames grew explosively . The statue suddenly vanished, replaced by a gate .

The gate slowly opened . Inside was a sea of flames .

A pillar of fire soared out of Huo Liehuo’s body . The surrounding space became a flame domain . The Heavenly Daos roared as they were squeezed out of this area . This became a world of flames, and in this world, Huo Lieyun was king .

“A paragon art! It’s a flame paragon art!”

Startled cries rang out . Only a paragon art could cause such a terrifying phenomenon .

“With a paragon art, who could fight him? Long Chen’s definitely dead . ”

“This world of flames is Huo Lieyun’s . How is Long Chen supposed to face him? There’s also that unending stream of flame energy coming from the gate behind him . Huo Lieyun’s energy is limitless . ”

This place had become an isolated world, the domain of a paragon art, a world controlled by the user .

“Long Chen, show me just what you’ll use to fight me . Having a powerful foundation is also a kind of power . A piece of trash like you without any background shouldn’t exist in this world,” shouted Huo Lieyun, his seas of flame erupting .

Long Chen was about to say a few things back when the ground shook, and a long ditch split the earth in two . It was like the earth was being torn asunder .

Suddenly, a slim figure flew out of the earth . It was just a few miles from Long Chen . When he saw that figure, Long Chen was dumbfounded . It was Ye Lingshan .

Ye Lingshan’s current appearance was wretched . She was pale with terror . Upon seeing Long Chen, she shouted, “Run! Monsters are about to come out of the underground!”
