And even Long Chen had chosen to step back, offering to split half the Neidan with him. However, he had wanted the whole thing, and so they had fought.
As for Mo Nian, he was just openly cursing him without any regard for his status. He was so furious, his face ended up twisted, truly looking like a stove. He was completely red, making it seem like the stove was lit.
“All experts of the Righteous path, listen to my orders! I, Huo Wufang, ask you to help me to eliminate the dregs in front of us. Whoever helps will get a favor from me! What I say definitely counts, and you can even record it with a photographic jade!” shouted Huo Wufang.
Huo Wufang’s promise caused a huge commotion amongst the Righteous disciples. He came from the Pill Tower, and from his tone, it seemed he was an extremely high-level member there.
Every power required medicinal pills. Most of those were purchased from the Pill Tower. If they could create a good relationship with Huo Wufang, then that was a huge benefit to their sects.
Furthermore, the fact that Huo Wufang was promising like this, even allowing them to record it with photographic jades, meant that he really had that ability.
“Kill! Long Chen is a homicidal fiend, capable of rape, pillaging, and all kinds of indescribable crimes!”
“Charge! That fiend, he can’t be allowed to escape the punishment of justice! Use his blood to wash away his stain on the Righteous path!”
“Clean our Righteous path of evil! Kill Long Chen!”
In the first moment, over half the experts of the Righteous path directly charged at Long Chen, infuriating Mo Nian and the others.
“These bastards, they clearly know Long Chen is innocent, but for a favor, they can still sell out their conscience. Absolutely vile!” Veins bulged on Guo Ran’s forehead.
“The most hateful would have to be that Huo Wufang. That bastard wants us to go head-on with these idiots, making it so we both suffer losses. In the end, there won’t be many of them capable of surviving. He won’t need to do much as a favor. Just a simple discount can appease them.” Zheng Wenlong was also clenching his teeth.
Facing this tide of Righteous disciples, they didn’t know what to do exactly. After all, they were all Righteous disciples, and they should have been standing on the same side. But now they were charging at them with their weapons raised malevolently.
“Let’s kill them.”
Mo Nian was filled with fury. These idiots didn’t care about right or wrong. Raising his bow, an arrow made of spiritual qi shot forward.
BOOM!
The arrow exploded in front of those attackers. Mo Nian hadn’t really been aiming to kill them, but just to intimidate them. And so his arrow didn’t really have much power.
“These accomplices are also fiends! Kill them all with Long Chen! Don’t hesitate, as we’re just taking the place of the heavens!”
However, instead of intimidating them, Mo Nian’s attack only ignited their fury. With a furious roar, their auras erupted out completely, and they charged with even greater zeal.
“These goddamn fuckers!” Mo Nian couldn’t endure it any longer and exploded with curses. His bow shook, and a dozen arrows shot out.
The arrows all landed in their midsts, and dozens of them were killed. However, this didn’t halt their advance.
“Goddamnit, why do they never have this kind of bravery when fighting against the Corrupt path!?!?” raged Mo Nian.
“That’s because they don’t see any profit against the Corrupt path. As for why they’re going all-out now, it’s all for that favor. As long as they can bring that favor to their sects, they’ll immediately begin soaring. Even their sect leaders would probably give them special attention.” Zheng Wenlong had a ridiculing expression.
He had managed to see through all of this. As a businessman, he could immediately realize what everyone’s interests were.
There was just one thing he didn’t understand. These idiots could see the benefits, but could it be they didn’t see the danger? Did they think that they were fat sheep for the killing?
All they seemed to see was that they had a numbers advantage. Did they not know that the members of Long Chen’s present alliance were even more terrifying than those experts of the Corrupt path?
“You don’t need to hesitate. Have free rein to kill them all. Your hesitation will only cause those friends beside you to lose their lives.
“In this world, there are no innocent people. There are only idiots whose eyes have turned red with greed. If you decide to be merciful, they will return your mercy with suffering.
“Kill them. Such people are trash. Against real enemies, they are filled with terror. But against their own people, their weapons never hesitate. Guo Ran, kill them all!” Long Chen’s voice rang out across the entire battlefield.
Everyone heard it extremely clearly. His last sentence caused a ruthlessness to fill Guo Ran, and countless spatial stones activated around him.
Those were all cores of spatial rings. Guo Ran had embedded them into his flesh, and so with a thought of his Spiritual Strength, the things within those spatial rocks were all summoned out.
His body became covered in armor, turning him into a metallic monster. Facing that huge group charging at them, he roared, “Die!”
His arms shook, and many little holes opened on his armor, all pointed at them.
Chapter 450 Heroes Fight a Bloody Battle
Countless black lights shot out of Guo Ran’s metallic arms, wreaking havoc amongst the attackers.
Blood splashed, and miserable cries rang out. When those black lights pierced through a body, the entire body would explode.
This had happened so suddenly that even Mo Nian and Zheng Wenlong jumped in shock.
“How fiendish! Don’t be afraid everyone; they don’t have many people, and as long as we get close, we can still crush them to death!” someone loudly shouted.
“Long Chen kills people without any regard to the value of life. Each person by his side is also evil! Everyone charge together to purify our Righteous path!” A woman’s sharp cry rang out.
“Fuck, this damn bitch!” Guo Ran could tell that it was Yin Wushuang’s voice.
However, they had a tide of enemies surging towards them, and so he had no time to find her. He shouted, “Brothers, you’ve all seen that these are all idiots who can’t distinguish between right and wrong. We don’t need to have any misgivings; kill them all!”
BOOM!
Those Righteous experts finally managed to get close to them. With an angry roar, countless openings appeared all over Guo Ran’s armor.
Black lights devastated the attackers, and flesh flew through the air. A pile of mincemeat appeared in front of Guo Ran.
Mo Nian raised his bow, and terrifying arrows tore through their ranks. Wherever his arrow flew, corpses would follow.
As for those archers behind Mo Nian, they were constantly raining a hail of arrows into the ground. They were truly all divine archers, and their arrows were targeted towards the experts. Each arrow was extremely accurate. The killing power of these three hundred people was truly terrifying.
Zheng Wenlong’s spear fluttered through the air. With each swing, a Chosen would die. But suddenly, a chilly aura enveloped him, and he hastily swung his spear behind him.
BOOM! His spear blocked another spear that had tried to sneak attack him.
“You are the Seven Underworld Gate’s Sun Hao?” Zheng Wenlong was startled.
This attacker was a peak expert of the Seven Underworld Gate, so Zheng Wenlong naturally recognized him. But he hadn’t expected even him to join in now.
“For a favor, you have to put aside other things. I hope brother Zheng won’t mind,” said Sun Hao.
“This is not some ordinary competition, but a true life and death battle. Don’t regret it,” said Zheng Wenlong.
“Don’t be so serious. This is none of my business. All I have to do is entangle you for a bit, and once Long Chen is dead, I can report my succe
ss. Brother Zheng is a businessman, so can it be you can’t tell what’s about to happen? Long Chen will definitely die today. Why must you go all-out? Wouldn’t it be better to also get a favor?” advised Sun Hao.
Zheng Wenlong’s expression turned icy. “I, Zheng Wenlong, am a businessman, but to do business, the most important thing is integrity. Since I’ve chosen to invest in him, then even death wouldn’t change my decision. You should leave. Don’t end up sending yourself to your death.”
“Zheng Wenlong, don’t refuse to give face. I’m advising you for your own good. Don’t think I’m actually afraid of you!” raged Sun Hao.
“Then you can die.”
Zheng Wenlong’s eight-temper aura erupted, and his spear smashed towards Sun Hao.
Sun Hao raised his spear to block, but he was horrified to realize he had underestimated Zheng Wenlong’s strength. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his internal organs almost displacing.
Sun Hao was the Seven Underworld Gate’s number one expert, and his strength was even slightly greater than experts of Yin Wushuang’s level. He could just manage to count as a peak expert. However, he was unable to receive a single blow from Zheng Wenlong.
“Die!” Zheng Wenlong sent his spear in for the kill. He knew there was no room for compassion on this battlefield. That would just be sending yourself to death. If they dared to attack, then they were enemies. And since they were enemies, they needed to be eliminated without the slightest mercy.
BANG! Zheng Wenlong’s arms shook intensely. A sword had slashed into his spear, saving Sun Hao.
“Xin Guran, you dare?!” Zheng Wenlong recognized this person as also someone from a large sect, and his power was similar to Sun Hao’s.
Zheng Wenlong suddenly retreated as a huge hammer smashed where he had just been. A huge crater appeared there.
Another peak expert had joined in. Zheng Wenlong’s spear danced through the air as he faced off against these three peak experts. But then, another expert joined hands with them, completely surrounding him.
He couldn’t help being startled and furious. He hadn’t expected there to be this many idiots. Even these peak experts had become idiots.
However, he then suddenly realized that with more and more experts joining in, the Righteous side now had a clear superiority. So these top experts were joining in just to take advantage.
Zheng Wenlong was besieged by four people, while Mo Nian’s expression was dark as he stared at the three people in front of him. Killing intent was surging out of him.
“Are you three sure you want to become enemies with my Mo Gate?” Mo Nian’s voice was icy.
“Young master Mo, we don’t dare do such a thing. You are our Qing Prefecture’s hegemon. With each one of your steps, all of Qing Prefecture trembles. Of course we don’t dare become enemies with you. But as Righteous disciples, we must uphold justice, to defend the weak from the strong, to eliminate evil from our world. Right now, we will simply be taking the place of the heavens to block you for a bit.” An emaciated man sinisterly laughed at Mo Nian.
Mo Nian’s expression was extremely ugly. These three were the top disciples of Qing Prefecture. They came from three different sects, and they were all exceptionally powerful.
Unfortunately for them, Mo Nian still stood at the peak. No one could shake him from that position. These three might be heavenly geniuses unrivaled within the same realm, but they were outshone by Mo Nian.
If it was a one on one, Mo Nian could beat them to the point that they wouldn’t even recognize themselves. But if the three of them joined hands against him, that was different.
His fury soared. For them to target him at this time, Huo Wufang’s promise was only part of the reason. The other reason was that they wanted to make up for all their grievances.
“Then you can all die.”
Mo Nian’s bow trembled as thousands of rays of light enveloped the three of them. A terrifying aura instantly erupted. Mo Nian’s killing intent was finally truly provoked.
The three of them didn’t have much enmity with him. After all, they all commonly appeared in Qing Prefecture, and none of them wanted to offend the others.
However, Long Chen’s matter was huge, and these three had decided to interfere. Now Mo Nian’s killing intent was truly provoked, and he truly wanted to kill these three idiots.
“Aiya, young master Mo is mad! How scary!” A sarcastic mocking came from one of them.
“Careful!”
The two beside him shouted at the same time, and their weapons began to shine, slashing at Mo Nian.
The careless one who had mocked Mo Nian had an arrow pierce straight through his weapon and blast his shoulder apart.
Originally, that arrow was aimed for his head. However, he was also an extremely strong person, and the instant that arrow was about to reach him, he dodged to the side. But it still struck his shoulder, turning his face purple.
When they had fought before, Mo Nian had never used such heavy attacks. But this time Mo Nian really was planning on killing them.
“Attack! We don’t need to kill him. As long as we stall him, others will be able to kill Long Chen.” One of them raised his weapon and charged at Mo Nian.
As for the injured one, he consumed a medicinal pill. Enduring the pain, he also joined them. Due to how familiar they were with Mo Nian’s attacks, the three of them were able to surround him and attack him from all sides. Mo Nian roared with fury, but he was also unable to do anything about it. After all, the three of them together were around the same power level as him.
Seeing that the peak experts of the Righteous path had blocked Zheng Wenlong and Mo Nian, quite a few others directly went around the others to attack Long Chen.
With Long Chen busy with fighting Han Tianyu, Long Chen’s defensive strength must be essentially zero right now. As long as they attacked, they could definitely kill him.
If Long Chen dared focus on them, Han Tianyu’s crystal bone would immediately kill him. Furthermore, there were many people who had long since placed their intentions on Long Chen’s mysterious scale.
“Dreams Coil Around the Soul.”
A cry rang out. Those experts suddenly felt as if they had entered a dream.
Meng Qi’s eyes were closed, and she was still holding a strange hand seal in front of her. A bit of unwillingness had appeared on her face.
Her soul energy was incredibly vast. Those experts who had just been about to pass by them instantly entered a half-sleeping state.
“Wind Murders All Directions.”
The void trembled intensely. The wind was like millions and millions of blades flying through their midst.
The sound of wind blades cutting through flesh caused people to feel numb. Thousands of experts had been cut to pieces.
Tang Wan-er had constantly refined the energy within the wind spirit stones, and her comprehension over wind energy had increased to a new level. Her wind blades were now even more terrifying, capable of easily piercing armor and bodies.
She had a slightly uneasy expression. This was her first time killing people in such numbers. Furthermore, they were Righteous disciples.
However, for Long Chen, there was no way around it. Treating these people with kindness was to treat Long Chen with cruelness.
“What vicious women! They’re just the same as Long Chen, indiscriminate murderers who kill without batting an eye! Even if we all have to die, we still have to kill them to purify our Righteous path!” A sharp cry rang out from the crowd.
Everyone was constantly fighting. As time went by, more and more experts began to join in, increasing the pressure on them.
Suddenly, a large man with the huge broadsword passed by everyone and rushed over in Long Chen’s direction.
Chapter 451 The Heaven Splitting Divine Sect
Suddenly, a large man with the huge broadsword passed by everyone and rushed over in Long Chen’s direction.
“Spiritual Illusion!”
Meng Qi shoute
d and an illusory image appeared in front of that person. That illusion was transparent, and it had the same form as Meng Qi.
The person rushing forward was that mustached man who hadn’t said a single word from the very start. It was unexpected for him to take action at this time.
“Hmph.” The mustached man snorted and an ancient copper bracelet on his wrist lit up. It protected him and directly smashed apart Meng Qi’s spiritual avatar.
“A soul suppressing item!” Meng Qi was startled. It had to be known that the attack she had just used was incredibly powerful, as she had sensed that this man was extremely terrifying, perhaps not even lacking when compared to Han Tianyu or Yin Luo.
So this spiritual attack had contained her full power. Even ordinary protective soul items would have instantly been broken.
It had to be known that Meng Qi’s vast soul energy was even stronger than Long Chen’s. With just one ultimate move, she had managed to block all those charging experts.
There had been quite a few people amongst them who possessed soul items to protect themselves. But in front of Meng Qi’s powerful soul energy, those soul items would run out of energy in just a moment, and they would still be killed.
That was the most terrifying ability of soul cultivators. Their attacks silently targeted the soul, causing a person to die in an instant.
However, her attack had been destroyed by this mustached man. Meng Qi could sense that his bracelet contained a huge amount of soul energy. That soul item was not ordinary and had to be high grade amongst soul items. Their other name was soul suppressing items.
A soul suppressing item had a higher quality than ordinary soul items, and it didn’t even need to be activated. When it encountered a spiritual attack, it would instantly activate to protect its owner. Meng Qi could sense that the soul energy within that bracelet was incredibly condensed. That was something only possible if a Xiantian soul cultivator had poured their soul energy into it. Meng Qi was unable to do anything to it.
After breaking past Meng Qi’s blockade, he charged directly at Long Chen. He was incredibly fast, and before people could react, he was already past them.
