Chapter 722: Obtaining the Tombstone
Feng Zhilin was busy slaughtering the two brothers on the other side!
Long Chen calculated the timing, and blood-red scales covered his body. His eyes slowly turned blood-red as he looked at the tombstone.
Thanks to the tombstone blocking everyone’s view, no one had noticed him.
Long Chen used Sight to observe his surroundings. He would be alerted instantly the moment anyone noticed him.
Using Sight, he noted down the positions of the Wind clan cultivators. The one who killed Shao Yu was currently standing next to the Martial God Tombstone. Coincidentally, he was also the one closest to Long Chen.
Long Chen wanted to kill him to avenge Shao Yu, but he knew the importance of the Martial God Tombstone. If he failed this time, he would never get another chance to take it. But he was certain that he could kill whoever was in possession of it if he himself became stronger.
Long Chen focused on the Martial God Tombstone.
At the final moments of the battle between Feng Zhilin and the two brothers, Long Chen acted. Suddenly, the Wind clan cultivator turned his head and saw Long Chen charging towards him. He was surprised by the sudden appearance of the red-scaled warrior.Long Chen also didn’t know why the person had suddenly turned his head. It was a coincidence and bad luck.
The person opened his mouth to shout the moment he saw Long Chen.
Long Chen had killed one of his comrades yesterday, so the person clearly remembered him. How would he not be surprised to find Long Chen just behind the Martial God Tombstone?
“Damn!” Long Chen had no choice but to improvise. Since the person was standing just in front of the Martial God Tombstone, Long Chen decided to attack him too. Long Chen\'s right arm was engulfed in fire as the Scarlet Emperor Seal lit up in his palm.
Whoosh!
Long Chen activated the Blood Devouring Domain to suppress the person as well!
“Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal!”
He had wanted to use it to dislodge the Martial God Tombstone, but now he had to use it to kill the person!
Long Chen’s attack had come out of nowhere. The cultivator hadn’t fully recovered from the shock of seeing Long Chen here as the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal swiftly approached him!
“HE—” He remembered how his comrade had fallen to the same attack. He was so afraid that he forgot to fight back. Long Chen’s Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal touched his chest.
Bam!
“Die!” The Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal hit the warrior and launched his corpse straight into the Martial God Tombstone. The remaining force from the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal impacted the Martial God Tombstone and disintegrated the warrior. Long Chen then attacked with his palm as the burning flame exploded outwards.
Boom!
The Martial God Tombstone let out an explosive sound.
Long Chen used all of his strength to unleash a single potent attack. He was surprised by how everything turned out even though it was risky. Not only had he avenged Shao Yu, he had even hit the Martial God Tombstone.
The Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal’s strength might’ve been reduced a bit after hitting the warrior, but Long Chen still sensed that it was powerful enough to move the Martial God Tombstone. It was now up to luck to determine if it was enough to dislodge it!
Everyone noticed what was happening the moment Long Chen used the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal. They turned around and saw a person exploding into chunks of flesh while blood-red fire sprayed everywhere on the Martial God Tombstone.
Even Feng Zhilin was attracted by the sound.
She was launching her final blow when it happened, but her pride didn’t allow her to stop now. She intended to kill the two elders from the Gold clan before taking the Martial God Tombstone.
“Someone is behind the Martial God Tombstone!” Aunt Snow disappeared and instantly reappeared in front of Long Chen. The speed of someone at the Eighth Earthly Martial Realm was not to be underestimated!
Using Sight, he saw that everyone except for Feng Zhilin was surrounding him!
“I have to risk it!” Long Chen activated the Primordial Realm and tried to take the Martial God Tombstone!
“Damn! It’s still stuck a bit! Just a little more!” Long Chen was dismayed when he noticed that he needed to dislodge it just a bit for it to work. His luck was bad. If it wasn’t for that cultivator, he would’ve been able to take the Martial God Tombstone.
He had taken a huge risk and failed. It would be one of his largest regrets!
Everyone was approaching him and his window of escape was becoming slim. He knew when to give up and was about to use Blood Warp when…
“Brat, let me help you!” Little Cat’s words were like a blessing for him!
Long Chen continued to open the Primordial Realm. With Little Cat’s help, it emitted a strong suction! A black light burst forth and enveloped the Martial God Tombstone, causing it to shrink before it entered the Primordial Realm.
The Martial God Tombstone had disappeared!
Everyone saw Long Chen’s blood-red figure.
Aunt Snow was the closest to him at barely ten meters away while everyone else surrounded him from a distance.
When the Martial God Tombstone disappeared, everyone knew that Long Chen had a Storage Ring and had sneakily stolen the tombstone while everyone was occupied with Feng Zhilin’s battle.
Everyone from the Wind clan was angry.
But they were shocked to find that Long Chen wasn’t as strong as they had thought—his essence indicated that he was only roughly at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage.
The weakest Wind clan member present was at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage. Each of Feng Zhilin’s illusions was also at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage.
Anyone could kill Long Chen with a single tap and yet he had somehow successfully stole the Martial God Tombstone?
Who is this person? Even Aunt Snow was confused.
She was shocked to find that the Martial God Tombstone was stolen, but she was even more surprised to find that someone so weak was behind it. Does he have a death wish? And where did he obtain a Storage Ring?
No one knew who Long Chen was at first, but Feng Zhilin did.
Even though she had never seen him before, she had heard his name twice. The first time was about how he had escaped safely even though the young master of the Divine clan had stolen his pet.
The second time was when Long Chen killed a Wind clan cultivator in front of Black Gold City.
Rather than anger, Feng Zhilin was instead curious when she saw him. She had never seen someone so mysterious before.
But she soon remembered what Wu Guangyu had told her, that Long Chen had an amazing technique used for escaping.
“Damn!” Her Shapeless Whip cracked towards Long Chen like a snake. Long Chen would be split apart if he was hit by it!
“Blood Warp!” The moment the Martial God Tombstone was in his hands, he became a blood-red light and escaped. Even the Shapeless Whip missed him!
Everyone knew how serious the situation was when Long Chen disappeared.
To think that the Martial God Tombstone was stolen by a mysterious nobody.
And even Feng Zhilin’s Shapeless Whip had missed him?
No one knew what was going on.
Everyone was shocked, but the two brothers on the verge of death were happy with Long Chen’s appearance. They knew that Feng Zhilin would let them live, as she needed to chase him.
“He might be able to escape from Wu Guangyu, but he will not be able to escape from me! Aunt Snow, I will leave the two pieces of garbage to you. Wind God’s Warp!”
She turned into a gust of wind and chased after Long Chen!
Feng Zhilin was already fast, but her Wind God’s Warp made her even faster, enough to rival Long Chen’s speed. But Long Chen’s Blood Warp only lasted for ten Li, while she could use her’s freely.
