Chapter 872: 872

Yu Changhao seemed to have been plated in gold . What he had obtained was a golden battle armor, and an extremely powerful one at that .

He appeared incredibly domineering and imposing now, practically like a golden battle god .

His gaze suddenly turned to Xue You . He saw that Xue You was still in the midst of trying to connect with his treasure . He had an urge to interrupt him, but he still gave up on it in the end .

That Evil Dragon Bone Claw was a powerful treasure . Anything that came from a dragon’s body was a natural treasure . Perhaps that claw was at an even higher level than his armor .

However, Xue You was part of the Corrupt path . Although the ancient races were always neutral, as long as no one came to provoke him, he couldn’t attack the Corrupt path .

He snorted . Although he was a bit unwilling, he gave up any thoughts of attacking Xue You . His gaze rover around the mountain until he saw the distant Long Chen .

“Long Chen, just wait!” Yu Changhao sneered inside . He hesitated for a moment and then decided not to attack Long Chen for now . Instead, he began searching for more coffins . Finding more treasures was more important right now .

With this golden armor, his defensive strength had risen greatly . Furthermore, at this time, he still wasn’t able to activate its true power . Once he reached Sea Expansion, his defense would rise to a truly shocking level .

So Yu Changhao might want to immediately kill Long Chen, but he also knew Long Chen wasn’t so easy to handle . If they fought at full strength, it would waste this opportunity to obtain more treasures .

This opportunity was extremely rare . If he didn’t seize the moment, missing out on even stronger treasures just to kill Long Chen, it would be a loss .

Long Chen didn’t glance toward Yu Changhao, but he was on constant guard against him . Only once he saw him go to another coffin did he relax .

He was obtaining a hundred treasures an hour . How could he have time to fight him?

After another four hours, people gradually found that the number of opened coffins was declining . They began to expand their search range .

Everyone was extremely excited . They had at least obtained one treasure item, and some had obtained up to four .

The Righteous path’s rank one Celestials that had obtained a Treasure item directly left rather than continuing . They were very smart .

If they had too many Treasure items, then with their power, there was no way they could leave this place alive . Even if the Corrupt experts and ancient race experts didn’t do anything, the other Righteous experts would .

The Treasure items they had obtained couldn’t be counted as good, but they also weren’t bad . However, they wouldn’t draw other people’s envy, so hastily slipping away was the right decision .

As for those that had stayed, they were all rank two Celestials at least . Although those rank two Celestials couldn’t defeat a rank three Celestial, they were rather prideful, thinking that even if they couldn’t defeat one, they would still be able to escape .

“Bastard, how is this possible?! Long Chen just opened this coffin, and I clearly saw the light of a treasure come from inside! There should definitely be a treasure!” Suddenly, one of the ancient race experts roared furiously .

Because he hadn’t been able to find any other coffins, he had suddenly thought about checking one of the ones that Long Chen had gone through . Just because it was something Long Chen looked down on didn’t mean it couldn’t be useful to him .

“What? You also didn’t find anything? I’ve gone through seven of the coffins Long Chen has gone through, but there was nothing inside!” shouted another ancient rank expert .

Long Chen cursed inside . He had finally been noticed . Looking at those furious ancient race experts, he was so angry that he had an urge to wring their necks .

Their shouting caused everyone to stop and look at Long Chen with shock .

“This bastard definitely has a secret art that allows him to extract the treasures inside without completely opening the coffins!” roared one of the ancient race experts . A greedy light appeared in his eyes .

If he was correct, then even if half the coffins Long Chen had gone through had been empty, the number of treasures he had obtained had to be over a hundred . Thinking of a hundred Treasure items, everyone’s eyes turned red .

“Kill Long Chen and take his Treasure items!”

A powerful rank three Celestial from the ancient races roared and took the initiative . Although he wasn’t an innate rank three Celestial, his aura was like the sea . His spear stabbed toward Long Chen like a poisonous dragon . This attack contained a terrifying power that caused the world to rumble .

He was an extremely conceited expert, but he also had the power to be conceited . This attack was truly terrifying, and it sealed off all of Long Chen’s escape paths .

Following him, the other ancient race experts also attacked . Previously, they had all seen him fight Yu Changhao . Although he was powerful, for the unknown Treasure items he had on him, they chose to go all-out to kill him . That was because once Yu Changhao decided to join in, those Treasure items would all go to him .

“Xiaoqian, you continue flipping through the coffins while they’re distracted . I’ll handle them,” said Long Chen, stopping her from attacking . He alone was enough .

The Eastern Wasteland Bell had said that as long as Long Chen remained on this mountain, it would be able to take the treasures in whatever coffin Yue Xiaoqian opened .

“Then let’s see just who will be killing who,” laughed Long Chen . A broadsword appeared in his hands, and he directly attacked the first expert to charge at him . His sword slashed down on his spear .

BOOM!

The ancient race expert was forced back by Long Chen . At this moment, Long Chen became covered by thunderforce, and he appeared in front of him again like he had teleported .

He was too fast . With his Lightning Body Blink, especially at such a close distance, that person didn’t even have a chance to react . Long Chen’s sword cut straight through his head, and it exploded like a melon .

This attack had contained his thunderforce, and it had destroyed his soul along with his body . There wasn’t the slightest chance of him escaping .

“Split the Heavens!”

After killing one, Long Chen didn’t hesitate . His broadsword pointed toward the sky, and a huge sword-image appeared . It slashed down on the experts charging at him .

Everything happened too quickly . Long Chen’s attack was almost instantaneous and incredibly powerful . Although the ancient race experts immediately went to block, quite a few people were still struck .

Several of the ancient race experts instantly exploded . Even in death, they couldn’t comprehend how Long Chen could instantaneously release such a powerful move .

Over ten of them were killed in an instant . Even their hasty defenses were unable to block Long Chen’s power .

Currently, Long Chen was no longer holding back . He was prepared to undergo a slaughter . These ancient races were too arrogant, and since they wanted to kill him, he definitely wouldn’t be merciful .

Only four of the attackers managed to survive his attack . Those four were all innate rank three Celestials .

Although his attack had come suddenly, with their immense power, they had managed to brunt the impact of his attack . But they were still filled with a lingering fear .

Without accumulating any power, Long Chen was capable of releasing such a terrifying attack . This had already surpassed the scope of their understanding .

Long Chen swung his broadsword, resting it on his shoulder . His body was covered in flowing lightning . “You want to kill me? I’ll welcome you at any time . As long as you feel like your throat is hard enough, come as you please!”

“All of you, get out of the way! Let me kill this arrogant fellow . ” Yu Changhao flapped his wings and flew toward Long Chen . Runes circulated on his wings, summoning a sharp light that suddenly shot toward Long Chen . It was actually the same move as before .

“Arrogant? This counts as arrogant? I’ll show you what real arrogance is . ”

Long Chen sneered, his aura circulating . His black robes began to float without any wind . His primal chaos bead circulated and the power of his four stars erupted . His broadsword slashed down, releasing a ray of Sword Qi .

BOOM! A raging qi wave erupted .

“What?!” Everyone was shocked to see Yu Changhao’s terrifying attack be shattered by Long Chen’s sword .

What was going on? Previously, Long Chen clearly hadn’t dared to receive that attack . But now he easily broke it? Was this supposed to mean that Long Chen had been holding back before?

“Where are you looking, idiot?”

Yu Changhao couldn’t believe his eyes . One of his core attacks had been destroyed with just brute force . Just as he was stunned, a hand viciously slapped across his face . By the time he reacted, he was struck .

Yu Changhao shot back like a shooting star in front of everyone . He slammed into the ground, forming a huge crater . Even the surrounding coffins were buried .

“Disobedient son of a bitch, does being slapped feel extremely comfortable to you?” sneered Long Chen, swinging his hand .

“Long Chen was definitely hiding his power . How sinister . ” This was what most people were thinking .

In truth, Long Chen truly had been concealing his power . When he had fought against Yu Changhao previously, that formation might have stopped his magical arts, but it didn’t stop his Nine Star Hegemon Body Art .

It was just that Long Chen didn’t want to become everyone’s target so early . Enduring for a bit to make a fortune was the way of the king . But halfway through his fortune, he had been noticed by others . Now there was no point in enduring any longer . He immediately released the power of the eighth star transformation and twelfth Heavenstage .

Suddenly, the ground exploded and a pillar of light soared into the sky . Yu Changhao appeared, a huge illusory figure behind him . A golden rune lit up on his forehead, and a terrifying pressure came from him, one that caused the space around him to twist .

“Long Chen, die!”

Yu Changhao’s wings suddenly pointed to the sky . Everyone was horrified to see the void tear .
