Chapter 369
The instant that blood-colored mark appeared on Yin Wushuang’s forehead, an ancient aura surged out from within her body . Every single person present felt their hearts pound .
This was the not the same as ordinary pressure . This was a bloodline suppression . Those with weaker cultivation bases immediately felt as if their blood was about to burst out of their bodies, and they fled in panic .
Even those stronger Favored felt a change in their bodies, and they hastily retreated out of the range of that terrifying pressure .
“You are just a lowly ant . Today I’ll let you gain some experience on the power of an ancient bloodline, allowing you to die at ease!” After that blood-colored mark appeared on Yin Wushuang’s forehead, her aura became absolutely overbearing .
Blood-colored light began to shine from her body, looking as if the rising sun was lighting her up . She appeared extremely grand, as if she were a goddess .
The most terrifying thing about her was that bloodline pressure she was releasing . It caused people to feel as if they might explode . Just how was someone supposed to fight against that?
In front of that bizarre aura, even those two Chosen in the distance were pale . They felt a terror that came from their innermost hearts .
“An ancient bloodline!” Everyone was horrified . In the current cultivation world, there were several ancient powers whose inheritances stretched back into ancient times .
Terrifying experts had appeared amongst their ancestors, and their bloodlines were capable of continuing for tens of thousands of years without declining . Once they activated that bloodline power, it would result in this terrifying bloodline pressure .
This was a pressure that was impossible to block . Unless you also possessed an ancient bloodline or had some kind of secret technique or treasure that could block it, there was no way for you to resist such a person .
Many people had already heard that Yin Wushuang’s background was extremely powerful, but no one had imagined that she possessed an ancient bloodline . In other words, she came from one of those mysterious and powerful ancient families .
Chu Yao and Lu Fang-er were both under heavy pressure . Although that pressure was focused on Long Chen, they were still affected .
The two of them felt as if their blood was being compressed . Lu Fang-er was especially pale .
Chu Yao hastily reached out and pressed her hand on Lu Fang-er’s back . Pure energy was inserted into her body .
Having obtained Chu Yao’s assistance, Lu Fang-er immediately felt much better and smiled gratefully at her .
At the same time, she was also shocked by how powerful Chu Yao was . Not only was she able to resist Yin Wushuang’s bloodline suppression, she also had the energy leftover to help her .
“Now you should know how vast the difference between us is, right?” Yin Wushuang icily stared at Long Chen like a god looking at a mortal .
“The difference?”
Long Chen smiled slightly . When she had activated her bloodline pressure, Long Chen’s blood truly had reacted .
But it was as if his blood had been provoked, and it was like a volcano that was furiously erupting, seeming like it wanted to release its own bloodline pressure .
Long Chen had never encountered such a situation . He hadn’t even been aware that he had his own bloodline pressure . But he also didn’t know how to activate this power .
It was due to Yin Wushuang that his bloodline energy had instinctively become excited . He was like an emperor who had been sneered at by a beggar, and so he had decided to release his own might .
But this was the first time Long Chen was experiencing this . He didn’t even understand what exactly this bloodline pressure was, so he didn’t want to expose it .
He knew nothing about his origins . But Yin Wushuang’s bloodline pressure allowed him to confirm one fact: he also had to come from an ancient family, and it was definitely a family much stronger than Yin Wushuang’s .
Yin Wushuang’s bloodline pressure might be able to suppress others, but it didn’t pose any threat to Long Chen .
So when Yin Wushuang asked if he understood how vast the difference between them was, he had smiled . He really had learned the difference between the two of them . They really were as different as heaven and earth .
Seeing that disdainful smile of Long Chen’s, Yin Wushuang’s fury soared . Previously, she had been planning on killing Long Chen by relying on just her sword arts .
She didn’t want to bring out her full strength . But she had found her sword arts were useless against Long Chen, and so she could only summon her bloodline power .
But doing so was definitely raising Long Chen’s status . It was equivalent to admitting that Long Chen had the ability to fight on the same level as her . To Yin Wushuang, that was a humiliation .
And now Long Chen used this expression to look at her even despite her bloodline pressure . That infuriated her even more . She brandished her sword again, and the sound of space being torn apart rang out .
“Die!” Having summoned out her ancient bloodline, Yin Wushuang’s aura instantly reached its peak . This sword of hers caused heaven and earth to quiver, and a terrifying sword intent locked Long Chen in place .
Long Chen sneered, and with his FengFu Star circulating, his spiritual qi instantly surged out . After advancing to the Tendon Transformation realm, his spiritual qi had become vast as a sea, and his body had been constantly brimming with energy .
Seeing Yin Wushuang’s sword slashing at him, Long Chen roared, and Devil Decapitator hacked down on her as quick as a bolt of lightning .
BOOM! Yin Wushuang’s silver sword and Long Chen’s golden Devil Decapitator collided with each other, emitting a fierce qi wave .
Chu Yao had long since been prepared . Before that qi wave even reached her, she had hastily formed hand seals, and countless wooden stakes had formed a huge shield in front of her and Lu Fang-er . At the same time, it also protected Little Snow as well as the Seven Heartsea Cherry-Apple Tree .
The ground beneath Long Chen and Yin Wushuang’s feet collapsed, and both parties were knocked back dozens of meters by the other .
The instant Long Chen’s foot touched the ground, he shot forward again . He held Devil Decapitator with both hands, swinging it out in a profound arc at Yin Wushuang .
BOOM!
Yin Wushuang hadn’t expected Long Chen to attack so quickly, and as a result, by the time she reacted, his saber had already reached her and she could only use her sword to block .
One person was attacking with their full strength, while the other had to come up with a hurried defense . As a result, Yin Wushuang was knocked flying by Long Chen’s saber .
Although his saber had managed to send her flying, Long Chen was absolutely shocked . He hadn’t held back with that attack, but Yin Wushuang wasn’t injured at all .
After advancing to the Tendon Transformation realm, Long Chen’s physical strength had multiplied by who knew how many times . Other than a few abnormal people, there was practically no one who could receive one of his blows .
Long Chen was shocked . But Yin Wushuang was even more shocked . Although she didn’t specialize in brute strength, with her bloodline assistance, she was almost able to one-shot anyone in the same realm .
But she wasn’t even able to completely stop Long Chen’s saber . Instead, she was the one who appeared miserable as Long Chen continuously brandished his saber, forcing her back step by step .
His saber flew through the air like a dragon winding around the heavens . Each one of his blows contained a terrifying power . Whenever their weapons collided, an ear-splitting explosion would ring out, and heaven and earth would change color .
BOOM! Under Long Chen’s tempest of attacks, Yin Wushuang had been forced back a whole mile before finding a chance to retreat .
“Hmph, you really are quite sentimental . Even at this time, you’re still trying to protect those two women behind you . ” Yin Wushuang’s expression was gloomy .
She hadn’t expected that Long Chen would not only possess such a terrifying strength, but also possess such exquisite techniques . Being caught off guard just now, she had been completely flustered . Now that she finally had a chance to breathe, she noticed Long Chen was purposely trying to create distance between them, and so she mocked him . “Hmph, even if you didn’t want to increase the distance, I would have done it since I don’t want to harm the treasure . In any case, well done for doing this! I’ll first kill you as a reward before handling those two sluts!”
Not waiting for Long Chen to reply, countless lines suddenly shone on her sword and a terrifying aura caused space to constantly warp .
The instant those runes on her sword lit up, Long Chen immediately felt an intense sensation of danger . Her sword came slashing down on him .
His saber once more collided with her silver sword, causing sparks to fly . The webbing between his thumb and forefinger split open, and he was forced back several steps .
He was shocked . Yin Wushuang was truly strong . It was no wonder she dared arrogantly say she was capable of killing him . There was a bizarre energy that came from her sword . Long Chen’s hand hadn’t been able to resist it, and had ended up injured .
“There’s something odd about this woman’s sword . ” Long Chen felt that no matter how powerful Yin Wushuang was, she was still a woman, and in terms of physical strength, she was definitely not able to surpass him .
Furthermore, when their weapons had collided, he had been shocked to find that a portion of his own energy had instead reflected back on him .
“This time you should understand the difference between us . However, you won’t have a chance for regret . Death is your only option, so just obediently go to hell!”
Having forced back Long Chen with her sword, a faint ridicule appeared in her eyes . Her silver sword swung out again .
Everyone was startled . They couldn’t comprehend why Long Chen, who had clearly gained the upper hand previously, would now be instantly injured .
From their distance, they were unable to clearly see the runes on her sword, so they were extremely astonished by this reversal .
I can’t continue like this . That sword is odd, and will reflect a portion of my own power . Forcibly attacking will just make me continue to lose out .
Long Chen wanted to summon out his divine ring, but he wasn’t sure what was going on with that sword .
If that silver sword was able to endure his power even after he summoned his divine ring, then the reflective effect would probably instantly break his own hand . That was too stupid .
Long Chen finally understood the importance of having a powerful background . Whether it was Han Tianfeng or Yin Wushuang, they all had countless treasures . Compared to them, Long Chen really was a poor beggar .
Furthermore, he realized that after that previous blow, another peanut-sized nick had been cut into Devil Decapitator . In other words, the material his saber was made of was clearly inferior to his opponent’s . If it weren’t for his weight advantage, his entire saber might have been cut apart by that sword .
Seeing Yin Wushuang once more attack him, Long Chen took deep breath . He ignored her sword, instead stabbing his saber directly at her chest .
