Chapter 672: Fierce Battle at Nascent Soul Stage, Crumbling Mountains and Splitting Earth
Chapter 672: Fierce Battle at Nascent Soul Stage, Crumbling Mountains and Splitting Earth
His skin was as smooth as jade, and his eyes shone like stars.
His handsome features were akin to an immortal in the mortal realm, captivating all who beheld him.
The most striking feature, without a doubt, was his signature blue hair.
Even at the fourth-stage Incarnation Body, it was impossible to change the color, for he was the royal of the Mermaid Clan—Liu Jun!
Luo Chen spoke his name and origin, causing Liu Jun to be taken aback.
"How dare a junior recognize me?"
"How could I not recognize you? After your defeat in the Sinking Sea, I, a Blood Scatterer under the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly, was your opponent. I, Luo Chen, would never mistake you."
"You!"
A flash of anger crossed Liu Jun's face, but he made no move.
Luo Chen was puzzled, his gaze falling on the Five Elements Lotus Platform beneath Liu Jun.
This was the target of his journey—the Five Elements Lotus Platform! Its quality was far superior to the one he had seen in the Green Dan Valley, and its energy was almost on par with a fifth-stage spirit land!
"Something's wrong, Luo Chen!"
Han Zhan's voice entered his ears, carrying a sense of urgency.
"He's absorbing the power of the lotus platform to heal his injuries."
Luo Chen's eyebrows rose, no wonder Liu Jun remained calm despite his provocative words.
But!
If you absorb the power of the Five Elements Lotus Platform, how can I use it to refine the Infant Formation Pill in the future?
"If you don't come out, I'll go in!"
Luo Chen shouted, his body moving like lightning, straight into the depths of the lava lake.
It's time to enter the tiger's den to catch the tiger!
As he ran, seven flying swords suddenly merged into one, taking the lead.
The long swords were sharp and exuded a menacing aura.
In the blink of an eye, they reached Liu Jun.
Liu Jun gently bent his fingers and flicked.
Clang!
The Seven Stars Saber was struck, and the giant sword that had just merged was broken, turning into seven streams of light that scattered into the depths of the lava lake.
Seeing this, Luo Chen was not surprised.
The Hundred Creations Mountain Master's flying sword technique was formidable, but he hadn't practiced it much. It was purely controlled indirectly through the Soul Heaven Sword Case.
Not to mention the Seven Stars Saber Formation, even some ordinary techniques were difficult to unleash. He had only mastered the Giant Sword Technique.
He had a backup plan!
A blue handprint emerged from his palm, but he held it back.
As he ran swiftly, the surrounding lava seemed to be drawn towards him, gathering as the blue handprint grew larger.
At a hundred zhang away.
"Go!"
With a low roar, the Blue Giant Handprint descended.
Seeing this palm strike, Liu Jun's eyebrows furrowed slightly. He drew a circle with his left hand and then slowly pushed it out.
Hum...
A layer of blue light slowly expanded.
When the light circle and the giant handprint met, they silently disappeared in front of both of them.
Seeing this, Liu Jun looked at Luo Chen with a hint of seriousness.
"The pinnacle fire-based technique can even harness fire energy for its own use. I underestimated you."
"If it were an ordinary time, I would have made you my slave."
"But now, I need to heal my injuries and have no time to play with you."
His words were like a captivating song, echoing softly.
These simple and direct words, when they reached Luo Chen's ears, sounded incredibly beautiful and enchanting.
Like a whispered melody, it was like the murmur of a spring.
"He's healing his injuries. He is indeed injured."
"It should be the wound left by the Blood Scatterer. The Blood Scatterer is extremely powerful, even at the Nascent Soul mid-stage, he is said to be no weaker than a Great Master at the Nascent Soul-stage."
"The Mermaid Emperor Liu Jun is only at the early Nascent Soul stage. How can he be a match for the Blood Scatterer?"
"In other words, now is the best chance for me to defeat him..."
With these words, Luo Chen's thoughts fluctuated in his mind, as if he could see the smooth and easy battle ahead.
At this moment.
A feeling like a needle prick pierced his Sea of Consciousness.
"Wake up!"
Suddenly, Luo Chen's stray thoughts vanished, and amidst the pain, he was shocked.
The Mermaid's song was like a dream, a fantasy!
If not for Han Zhan forcefully waking him up, perhaps Liu Jun's mere words would have made him sluggish, leaving him vulnerable to their control.
Indeed!
At that moment, as the Mermaid Emperor Liu Jun's words took a sharp turn, it was like a shattered silver bottle, a clash of knives and guns!
A blue glow rushed towards Luo Chen.
In this instant, there was no time for Luo Chen to react.
The glow instantly reached his body!
Puff!
Hiss!
Clang!
Three different sounds rang out in succession.
Luo Chen slowly raised his head, his palm holding a flying sword resembling a fish, a top-grade treasure.
It was this flying sword that had broken through his two layers of ultimate defense.
The Mermaid Emperor Liu Jun was slightly surprised, gazing at Luo Chen's red Daoist robe gradually transforming into black armor. Then, he suddenly realized.
"No wonder you're a human cultivator, with such excellent external treasures. A single armor can divide into inner and outer energy armor, delaying for a moment and saving your life."
Luo Chen's face turned fierce, "Don't even think about bewitching me with your enchanting voice again!"
By his ears, pure spiritual power had formed two barriers, blocking out all external sounds.
The Mermaid Emperor Liu Jun smiled slightly and flicked his fingers again!
In an instant, the flying sword held by Luo Chen started spinning wildly, attempting to break his defense.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
Sharp buzzing sounds continuously rang out, like an electric drill.
Luo Chen's face turned fierce, "Get lost!"
With one hand holding the sword and the other fist smashing down.
Clang!
The flying sword visibly bent in front of his eyes.
It merely bent, without breaking.
Liu Jun reached out and summoned the sword.
Whoosh!
The flying sword forcefully broke free from Luo Chen's grasp, returning to his side. After replenishing its spiritual power, the sword straightened again, just like before.
Such a change revealed the exceptional material of this sword.
With Luo Chen's brute strength, he couldn't forcefully destroy it.
The Mermaid Emperor Liu Jun also retracted his previous disdain.
He remembered this person, whose escape speed was incredibly fast. Back then, at the Three Pillar Canyon in the Sinking Sea, he had fled in advance, avoiding the same fate as Dao Lan, who had been enslaved by him.
Now, his spells and physical prowess also revealed a level of mastery far beyond that of a Core Formation Cultivator.
Therefore, he couldn't be treated as an ordinary Core Formation cultivator.
Taking a deep breath, he directly used the simplest and most effective method of a Nascent Soul True Man against lower-level cultivators.
Boom!
A powerful suppressing aura centered on him and spread out.
In an instant, it enveloped Luo Chen.
This was the Nascent Soul Domain!
"I don't know why you're seeking death, but I remember you killed one of my clan members, and you did it in an extremely cruel manner, burning him to ashes."
"Now, I'll use your own method against you and give you a taste of your own medicine!"
In a murmur, he slowly exhaled a strand of spiritual power.
The spiritual power flew in the air and transformed into a ball of blue flames.
It wasn't Sourceless Fire, but the most orthodox Nascent Soul True Flame! The blue flames slowly flew over, as if not at all concerned that Luo Chen might escape.
This would usually be the case.
After all, how many Core Formation Cultivators could withstand the domain suppression of a Nascent Soul True Man? But Luo Chen wasn't an ordinary Core Formation cultivator!
Boom!
"Hell of Samsara, open!"
A massive red spiritual power, amplified by the lifebound artifact Primordial Cauldron, erupted.
Like a volcanic eruption, it instantly broke through the domain suppression.
Blue flames rose, enveloping Luo Chen's entire body.
He stood like a demon lord in the midst of the magma lake.
Lifting his head to look at the sky, a hint of a smirk on his lips, the domain suppression of the Royal Current Lord seemed somewhat weak!
Either his own realm was too weak, or he was being restricted by the environment here.
In the Blazing Hell, fire-attributed spiritual energy was everywhere, while the other four elemental energies were scarce.
Especially the water-attributed spiritual energy, which was mutually restraining, was almost non-existent.
In this situation, the Royal Current Lord, born and raised in the ocean, a Nascent Soul cultivator of the shark race, might not be able to display even half of his strength.
Therefore!
"This place is my home ground!"
Luo Chen suddenly looked down, extending his right hand with a loud clap, and punched forward.
The floating blue flames were directly shattered.
After shattering the opponent's Nascent Soul True Flame, Luo Chen's body moved, transforming into a ray of light that ran in the magma lake.
With the Five Elements Lotus Platform as the center, Luo Chen's afterimages became more and more numerous.
And one after another, blue giant palm imprints emerged from the magma lake.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
All of this, though it seemed lengthy, actually happened in just an instant, from the moment Luo Chen broke through the domain suppression, to when he waved his hand to disperse the true flame, and then counterattacked with fierce force.
Facing the boiling magma lake and the countless afterimages striking out the Azure Sun Giant Palm Imprint, the Royal Current Lord's expression turned completely pale this time.
"You can actually ignore my Nascent Soul Domain!"
He didn't have time to think about what method the other party had used.
Countless giant palm imprints bombarded him, and he could only continuously display demon techniques for defense.
But just as he activated his demon techniques, he sensed something amiss.
"My spiritual power... This person is actually using a domain-like technique to provoke my spiritual power to boil!"
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, the handsome man's face filled with anger, and he spat out a round bead.
A radiant light spread out, about to isolate the inside from the outside.
Just at this moment!
Clang!
The sound of a sword rang out!
The next moment, seven swords resonated together, forming an array!
Seven killing auras transformed into a sword blade storm, directly sending the round bead into the air.
It was a sword formation!
The Royal Current Lord's expression changed, "Despicable!"
Without hesitation, he moved his mind.
The round bead suddenly shattered.
An extremely cold freezing force spread out.
Wherever it passed, the boiling magma turned into glaciers, and the thousand-year-old high temperature in this place began to rapidly cool down.
The Royal Current Lord took a deep breath, and his divine sense swept out, trying to locate Luo Chen's true body.
Suddenly.
The sound of ice cracking echoed.
In the starry eyes, a nine-zhang tall figure with fluttering wings rose from beneath the ice surface.
The giant hand clenched, and an iron fist broke through the air.
Mountain-Breaking Technique!
This time, the Royal Current Lord couldn't remain seated any longer.
Rising from the Five Elements Lotus Platform, he extended his right hand and punched forward as well, and as he struck, scales appeared on his arm.
The two collided.
Bang!
The immense force rebounded, causing both figures to involuntarily fly backward.
The Five Elements Lotus Platform, in the midst of the shattered ice and boiling magma, slowly descended.
Seeing this, the Royal Current Lord grew anxious.
His wrist trembled, and a flying sleeve struck out, about to wrap around the Five Elements Lotus Platform.
But just as it was about to wrap around it, the lotus platform, which had a bit of spirituality, turned in the air and then suddenly dove into the depths of the lake.
"Damn!"
The Royal Current Lord was furious, but he couldn't afford to chase after the Five Elements Lotus Platform that he had finally found. Instead, his gaze fell on Luo Chen.
With just a glance, he revealed an expression of doubt and uncertainty.
"Are you a human or an Ancient Beast?"
Luo Chen, who had already closed his ears, couldn't hear what he was saying.
Even if he could understand the meaning from the shape of his mouth, Luo Chen didn't want to answer.
In silence, he clapped his palm on the ice layer beneath his feet.
Immense power surged, and the ice blocks accelerated their collapse, while the sealed magma once again surged out.
The advantage of the home ground remained!
Subsequently, Luo Chen took a step.
The void exploded with a boom!
The distance between the two was already extremely close, and with the activation of the Void Burst Step, in the blink of an eye, they were face to face.
A claw slashed through the air.
The blue sword swung again!
Clang!
The Probing Cloud Divine Claw grabbed again!
Clang!
In an instant, Luo Chen fully displayed the Demon Lord's Seven Scattering Hands.
With an extremely high speed of movement, immense brute force, and exquisite body techniques, he occasionally even manipulated his spiritual power to instantly unleash the Azure Sun Giant Palm Imprint.
With such a combination of moves, after just a few dozen rounds, the Shark Emperor, Liu Ziwen, was exhausted and at a disadvantage.
As the sound of clashing rang out once more, that high-quality blue flying sword shattered into pieces in the Shark Emperor's eyes, and he was buried within the large lake.
"No! I can't keep fighting him here!"
"My Nascent Soul Domain is suppressed by the Blazing Hell, and my spiritual power is being drained bit by bit. And my physical body is even weaker than his."
"Especially since that person secretly attacks me like a thorn in my back!"
Taking a deep breath, the Shark Emperor used the momentum of his wide sleeves to forcefully withstand Luo Chen's attack, then borrowed the force to retreat, and charged into the sky.
Seeing this, Luo Chen's killing intent rose.
He looked down at the lava lake, then without hesitation, soared into the sky, tailing after him.
As soon as he left the lava lake and reached the sky, Luo Chen's pupils constricted.
In his line of sight, the Shark Emperor had not fled.
He stood tall in the sky, holding a lamp.
A lamp with a deep blue hue! A drop of liquid, like fresh blood or oil, flowed from the Shark Emperor's fingertips and landed on the lamp.
"Do you really think I'm being completely suppressed by you here?"
"I survived the Demon War, how can I fear a mere water-fire mutual restraint?"
The previous suppression and embarrassment made the Shark Emperor furious.
Hiss!
On the lamp, a blue flame appeared.
He gently blew, and the blue flame slowly floated towards Luo Chen.
Danger!
An extreme danger signal flashed in his mind.
Without hesitation, Luo Chen fled towards the distance.
However, although the flame seemed to move slowly, its speed was incredibly fast.
With Luo Chen's Primordial Fourth Stage cultivation and his full Nine Wan Li speed, he couldn't shake off the strange flame.
When Luo Chen was forced to stop on a tall mountain, the flame appeared before his eyes.
His face turned fierce, and he extended his left hand, reaching for the flame.
The hand, filled with the Prosper-Doom True Flame, fearlessly grasped the blue flame.
Not far away, the Shark Emperor, who had been closely pursuing him, saw this and coldly smiled.
"You're seeking death!"
The next moment, the giant's left arm entered the Shark Emperor's field of vision, making direct contact with the flame.
One green and one blue light clashed, neither giving way!
The Shark Emperor was once again astonished. This person actually mastered such a mysterious flame? But it's still not enough! As expected.
The blue and green lights competed, and the battlefield was set.
The former had greater momentum, while the latter's light was weaker.
However, when the blue light touched the flesh, it suddenly began to surge, suppressing the green flame.
"In the Northern Sea, there are mermaids, beautiful and skilled in song. Their tears are like bright pearls, and mermaid blood can prolong life, burning for ten thousand years..."
Ever since he killed a Late Third Stage mermaid in the Sinking Sea and encountered the birth of the Shark Emperor, Luo Chen had inquired about a lot of information regarding this race.
At this moment, that information appeared in his mind.
He looked at his left hand, the scene of his vigorous fleshly vitality being suppressed by the blue flame, and he fell silent.
Apparently, this was a Nascent Soul True Man using his own oil as lamp oil to ignite a lamp comparable to a treasure, giving birth to this strange flame.
His means were not yet completely mastered by himself, and even the Prosper-Doom True Flame might not be able to resist it.
If this continued, even though his physical body was comparable to a Primordial Fourth Stage Ancient Beast, he might still be burned to ashes.
Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time; otherwise, he could have used the Dragon Slaying Technique to cut it off.
When a decision is made, act on it; otherwise, you'll be affected by the chaos.
Luo Chen remained silent, his right hand formed a sword gesture, and a beam of blood light flashed.
Crack!
His left hand fell to the ground.
Within a ten zhang range, the Shark Emperor saw this and was taken aback.
He thought the other party would rely on that mysterious green flame to persist for a while.
But he didn't expect such a decisive action!
At this moment, Luo Chen raised his head, his cold eyes staring at the Shark Emperor.
The Shark Emperor's eyebrows furrowed, "Do you have any other means? Our race's treasure-induced demon fire is suppressed by those with vigorous life force. Now your physical body is restricted by me, and you've lost the home field advantage..."
Luo Chen smiled coldly, then with his right hand, he formed a seal and struck out with a palm.
He didn't attack the Shark Emperor.
Instead, he slapped the mountain beneath them.
"Mountain Collapse!"
A low roar echoed across the wilderness.
The next moment, in the Shark Emperor's confused gaze, the mountain collapsed.
The powerful explosion's aftermath forced both of them to fly backwards.
"Trying to escape?"
Amidst the explosion's aftermath, the Shark Emperor's expression turned cold. He had been pushed to this point, and there was no way he would let the other escape.
He took a step forward, about to pursue Luo Chen.
Just at this moment—
From the broken mountain, a shrill cry sounded.
A silver giant python, enraged, burst out.
With just a glance, the Shark Emperor recognized the silver giant python's true nature.
"Fire Spirit!"
Luo Chen smiled coldly, opened his mouth, and a green flame flew out, transforming into a fire tree in the void.
"Go, kill him!"
The fire tree swayed, rushing towards the Shark Emperor.
And the silver giant python, sensing the actions of its kin, also targeted the Shark Emperor.
Seeing the two at least Fourth Stage fire spirits charging towards him, the Shark Emperor panicked!
Luo Chen's eyes turned fierce, his gaze sweeping the surroundings, and his heart was filled with murderous intent.
His body moved, and he flew towards another erupting volcano.
"Not enough!"
"Still not enough!"
"I want him to die in the Blazing Hell!"
