Chapter 731: Unrelenting Blood Sacrifice
Aunt Snow was an Eighth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator, and one who was stronger than the twins of the Gold clan. Long Chen had no chance of beating her right now. Even the Blood Devouring Domain would be useless against her.
“What’s your decision?” Aunt Snow asked.
Long Chen was not intimidated. “I’ve sold off the Martial God Tombstone. I don’t know where it is. It’s up to you to believe it or not.”
“You!” Aunt Snow frowned.
“Aunt Snow, stop bickering with him. We should kill him to prevent anything from happening. I will attack him now!”
Aunt Snow knew that Feng Zhilin was very wary of Long Chen and wanted to kill him as soon as possible, so she stopped wasting time. “Please wait a moment, young mistress!”
Her eyes changed when she said that. White snowflakes appeared in her black pupils and cold air emanated from her body. Snow fluttered around Long Chen!
Since she was called Aunt Snow, her techniques were all related to snow too.
Boom!
With a point of her finger, numerous snowflakes as sharp as razor blades appeared around her. The snowflakes were strong as they were formed from her essence.Long Chen immediately retreated, but he didn’t use Blood Warp. He didn’t want to escape but instead wanted to place some distance between them. Thankfully, Feng Zhilin didn’t attack, leaving it to Aunt Snow. The Shapeless Whip was much more dangerous, so Long Chen was less stressed with Aunt Snow attacking him first.
Feng Zhilin didn’t move even though Long Chen had moved back thirty meters. He used this time to figure out how to deal with Aunt Snow. Someone at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage was too strong for him, but Long Chen decided to try fighting once!
He knew he only had the strength of someone at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage and yet wanted to fight someone at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage. He was nothing short of being crazy!
“Trying to run? You will die by my hand no matter what!” Aunt Snow caught up as the snowflakes circled around her. Under her control, the snowflakes converged and formed a white peony!
“Snow Peony!”
The white peony flew towards Long Chen, cutting up the ground on the way. Long Chen circulated his essence and charged towards the peony.
“Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal!” Fire was the best element to fight against Aunt Snow. In terms of martial techniques, Long Chen was certain that his was superior, but he didn’t have the essence to back the technique up!
The fiery red seal exploded against the white peony, rocking the planet. Long Chen’s intense fire melted some of the snowflakes, but many of them shot past it and destroyed the seal, then they flew towards Long Chen.
The Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal had used up half of his essence, but he didn’t have enough time to think that much in this life-threatening situation. He used the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal again to block off Aunt Snow’s technique, but the impact still threw him backwards. He fell onto the ground hard and almost spat blood.
Aunt Snow’s cultivation was not to be trifled with. Long Chen had used an Emperor-tier martial technique but still lost to her regular technique.
Long Chen was shocked, but Aunt Snow was even more surprised. She knew that he had an Emperor-tier martial technique, but it was far stronger than she had imagined. She was at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage, and yet Long Chen could block her technique even though he was much weaker.
Even though it was just a regular technique, someone at the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage would find it hard to block it.
Long Chen was barely strong enough to defeat someone at the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage. The two that he had killed at the entrance were close to their limit, so it was easy for him to take them out. If he entered one of the Nine Great Clans, he would find it difficult to defeat them even if he used the Emperor-tier martial technique.
Long Chen stood up and glared at Aunt Snow.
“Brat, you are indeed strong. Tell me the location of the Martial God Tombstone, or my next attack will be worse.”
Long Chen smiled and pointed at his crotch. “It’s here. Want to put your hands here and take it yourself?”
Long Chen’s words were shameless. Aunt Snow didn’t fall for his taunt, but Feng Zhilin was infuriated by his insolence.
He’s nothing compared to Wu Guangyu. He has no right to exist in this world.
Aunt Snow paused and stared at Long Chen. He was wounded, but he was still brave. She revealed her killing intent and said, “I won’t take it, but I will smash it!”
Long Chen taunted her further. “Haha! You are so violent! I bet your husband is miserable living with you!”
“You brat!” Aunt Snow cared deeply about her reputation, and Long Chen had touched her bottom line numerous times. She was now angry even though she had told Feng Zhilin to not be angry. She lost her rationality and pounced towards Long Chen, using her strongest techniques.
Finally lost her cool? Long Chen chuckled as his plan had worked.
He had to admit that he had bad luck to meet them here, but that didn’t mean that he had given up.
Since he would die anyway, he would rather fight back with all his strength for a single hope of survival.
Long Chen’s words were meant to make Aunt Snow lose her cool.
He already prepared his next move when Aunt Snow started running at him.
Feng Zhilin probably doesn't have enough time to save her at this range. Long Chen then used the forbidden technique that even he rarely used.
He had recently reached the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, and he decided to sacrifice his progress if it meant killing both Feng Zhilin and Aunt Snow here.
He skipped the first stage and used the second stage of Blood Sacrifice!
It would bring him to the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage. With his Dragon Soul Transformation, he would have the strength to defeat someone at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage, but the price he paid would be his cultivation. His cultivation level would fall to the Third Earthly Martial Stage by the end of it.
That was his cultivation level when he first arrived in the Ancient Graveyard.
At that point, he would lose the strength to defend himself, but he wouldn’t regret it. He had no choice but to use it, or he would die here today. He would risk it for a chance of surviving!
More importantly, if he could kill both Aunt Snow and Feng Zhilin here, he would be able to obtain the inheritance of the Seven Star Lord without worry. If he truly obtained the inheritance, there would be no reason to fear being weak.
He had passed the Third Earthly Martial Stage once, he could do it again.
Long Chen used the second stage of Blood Sacrifice. This was the key to his survival!
When Aunt Snow was prepared to kill Long Chen once and for all, Long Chen splayed open his arms as if he was prepared to die.
Wait, is he really looking to die? Aunt Snow was confused. Long Chen opened his arms and closed his eyes, seeming to ignore the attacks from his Eighth Earthly Martial Stage enemy. This was nothing short of suicidal.
Feng Zhilin was confused too.
What was Long Chen doing?
They soon realized what he was doing. When Aunt Snow was close to him, blood-red flames suddenly appeared on Long Chen’s body and engulfed him.
More importantly, when the blood-red flames lit up, countless blood-colored dragon illusions howled at the top of Long Chen’s head. During the process, Long Chen’s essence surged rapidly!
“Oh no! He’s becoming stronger!” Feng Zhilin was caught unaware!
