Chapter 920
Chapter 920 Full Firepower
A translucent sword appeared out of nowhere, looking as if it had come right out of space . It advanced at a dead angle toward Meng Qi .
“Sister Meng Qi!” cried Tang Wan-er . As a wind attribute expert, she was extremely sensitive to spatial fluctuations . Water was variable, but wind was always in motion . Any obstructions either had to be blown away by the wind or cause the wind to change direction . So Tang Wan-er was the first to notice .
But suddenly, she found that something was off . The sword had pierced through Meng Qi’s body, but there was no blood, nor was there any reaction from Meng Qi . Her body faded .
“An afterimage?” A man slowly appeared in the air, surprised .
“Explode!” Meng Qi appeared hundreds of meters away . Forming hand seals, an invisible sphere exploded above her, splattering yellow powder everywhere .
That man was instantly blanketed by the yellow powder . However, it seemed that the powder was just ordinary powder . It didn’t contain any offensive power .
This sneak-attacker was naturally the Bloodkill Hall’s top assassin, Huang Junmo . He had been hidden on the battlefield the entire time . In fact, he had been there ever since Long Chen had arrived at Drake Mountain, only holding back the entire time because he had never found a good time to kill Long Chen .
When Long Chen had arrived at Drake Mountain, he had felt that something was off . However, he hadn’t been able to pinpoint the exact reason . It was as though he was being stared at by an expert, but he had been unable to sense the expert’s position . That had made him keep his guard up . The only one who could hide his existence from him was a peak assassin like Huang Junmo .
Therefore, Long Chen had given Meng Qi some instructions on their way here . She had kept a protective Treasure item active the entire time . It was an extremely special Treasure item . When she was about to be struck by a close-range attack, it would instantly teleport her away .
This kind of Treasure item was of little use normally, but it was priceless to Meng Qi . She didn’t fight in close-range, so such a Treasure item was practically made for her . Although using it once would exhaust all its energy, just this one time was enough .
As soon as Meng Qi had activated the Treasure item, she had also detonated the sphere Long Chen had given her . The golden powder gave off a strong stench and light . There was no way for Huang Junmo to erase them in the short-term . They had basically broken Huang Junmo’s self-concealment abilities .
Huang Junmo’s expression changed . He instantly realized what was going on .
Long Chen’s prediction had been accurate . Huang Junmo would be lying in wait for an opportunity to kill him or assassinate one of the most important people to him to make him go crazy .
According to his experience with assassins, if they weren’t guaranteed to kill him in one blow, they wouldn’t take action . Even if he were to try baiting Huang Junmo into attacking him, with Huang Junmo’s immense assassination experience, it wasn’t likely he would fall for it . Instead, it would expose that he had sensed him .
So Long Chen’s guess was that Huang Junmo would kill one of his women to infuriate him . He wouldn’t choose one of the men, as the easiest way to enrage a man was to target their women . Long Chen had absolute confidence that Huang Junmo would choose either Tang Wan-er or Meng Qi .
As a wind attribute expert, Tang Wan-er was immersed in the endless wind element around her, making her extremely sensitive to spatial fluctuations . Thus, it would be difficult for Huang Junmo to approach her . As for Meng Qi, she was a soul cultivator . Although her Spiritual Strength was great, and she was also sensitive to auras, it would be easier for him to approach her while she was focusing on her enemies . So Long Chen had been almost sure he would choose to attack Meng Qi .
“Huang Junmo, you’ve finally appeared . I’ve been waiting for a long time . Four Star Battle Armor!”
Stars appeared in Long Chen’s eyes, and an explosive sound came from his body . His aura erupted like an awakening dragon .
BOOM!
Xue You and the others were instantly sent flying by a terrifying qi wave . They couldn’t help being horrified . Long Chen had actually been holding back .
After summoning the Four Star Battle Armor, he appeared like a battle god . With a single step, he closed the distance between himself and Huang Junmo, slashing his sword down .
Huang Junmo’s expression changed . He hadn’t expected his perfect assassination attempt to be ruined and to be thrown into Long Chen’s trap . There was no way for him to conceal himself any longer .
“Blood Fiend Grand Formation, Heaven and Earth Merge!” shouted Huang Junmo . He immediately activated his Spirit Blood and used a secret technique to push his power to its peak .
BOOM! Visible ripples appeared in the void . Although Gu Yang and the others had been informed by Meng Qi and retreated, they were still struck by those ripples .
Those ripples struck them, as well as the rank four Celestials fighting them . They felt as if a mountain-like hammer had smashed into their bodies, and they all vomited blood .
Only Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er were slightly better off . Meng Qi had already retreated far away, while Tang Wan-er was extremely fast . But they were both sent flying even further .
More explosive sounds rang out as the ripples spread to the ground . Huang Junmo crashed into the desert, vomiting blood . The people fighting where he landed were devoured by a wave of sand .
He had landed right in the center of the battlefield . Fortunately, Guo Ran had been smarter . After seeing Long Chen’s attack, he had immediately let out a fierce spurt of wind and soared straight to the clouds .
The three experts fighting him were stunned as they lost track of him . Before they could even tell what was happening, a huge wave of earth devoured them . The previous ripple that had struck them had been the shockwave from their attack . But this earth wave contained the true power of Long Chen’s attack . Even Huang Junmo hadn’t been able to bear it and had been blown into the ground . This wave of earth was the result of him shedding as much of the excess power as he could .
As a result, the three of them were very unlucky . In fact, the experts fighting against Wilde were also unlucky . They were like ants in front of that wave . The energy within that wave of earth smashed their bodies to pieces, and hundreds of other figures were blown to bits .
Those figures had been hidden before this . But when that earth wave erupted, they couldn’t continue hiding . They had tried to flee, but they had been too slow .
These people were the Bloodkill Hall’s elite assassins . They had caused countless experts to tremble in fear, but now they had been turned to dregs .
The strongest aspect of assassins was their assassination arts . Their combat power lay in sneak attacks and fleeing . Defense was something they looked down upon, or there wouldn’t be the assassin’s creed of fleeing if the first attack failed .
Even if they had the power to kill across realms, their defensive ability was basically zero . This one attack had killed all the elites of the Bloodkill Hall . If that news was transmitted, the entire world would probably be shaken . The Bloodkill Hall’s way of raising disciples was extremely stringent . This attack had basically killed this generation of the Bloodkill Hall’s talented disciples .
“Boss really is vicious! He’s getting more and more monstrous . ” Guo Ran had flown into the air with a single fart . Looking at the apocalyptic scene below and those experts miserably vomiting blood, he felt goosebumps . He tried to wipe the sweat off his forehead but forgot he was wearing a helmet .
Personally watching the earth wave rapidly spreading, Guo Ran gulped .
“Li Qi, quick! Great Earthen Protection!”
Song Mingyuan saw that this earth wave would still affect them despite how far they were . If they were struck, there were quite a few people that most likely wouldn’t be able to bear it .
BOOM!
A huge dome covered everyone, protecting them from the earth wave . The experts outside were dumbfounded . They had no time to think too much . They fled so quickly it seemed like they wished they could use their third leg as well . But they were still devoured by the earth wave .
The wave spread tens of thousands of miles . Li Qi and Song Mingyuan’s defense was covering a huge area, and they still managed to bear it . When the wave passed, people popped out of the ground like moles, filled with horror . They were currently in a huge crater . It was like a meteor had struck this place .
“Is this really the power of a human?” muttered one of the Foundation Forging tribe leaders .
“The threat has passed! Everyone, go all-out! There’s no need for mercy now . What we need is the blood of our enemies! We’ll use their foolish lives to comfort our departed brothers!” shouted Long Chen .
Previously, Long Chen had always been worried about Huang Junmo and his assassins . They were the ones that posed the greatest threat to his people and the aboriginals . Now that threat was over, it was time to let loose and start a slaughter .
“Kill!” The aboriginals thought of their fallen tribesmen and charged toward the enemies closest to them . Pain made people angry . Pain made people crazy . But pain could also make a person brave and tenacious .
“Huang Junmo’s not dead! Everyone, work together to kill Long Chen!” shouted Yu Changhao . He still sensed Huang Junmo’s aura and had to gather everyone’s power to kill Long Chen . Long Chen was in the midst of preparing his second attack, so they all charged forward to interrupt him .
“Let’s settle things today . ” Long Chen tightly gripped Blooddrinker, battle intent soaring out of him . It was time to resolve all their grudges .
