"Oh?" Long Chen looked at Ma Cheng with interest and said lightly, "Just you? I’m afraid you don’t have what it takes."
Recalling Long Chen’s performance at the Demon Pursuit Conference, Ma Cheng couldn’t help but feel a flicker of apprehension. He could only turn to the man beside him. "Uncle Liu, this guy is far too arrogant. Please, cripple him!"
Hearing this, the solemn-faced man turned his gaze toward Long Chen. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a chilling aura radiated from his body. The next second, he shot toward Long Chen and threw a punch!
Witnessing this, Long Chen leaped away, dodging the attack just in time.
I don’t know his true strength yet. It would be unwise to clash with him head-on, or I’ll be the one to suffer. In a situation like this, I have to be cautious.
BANG!
The shockwave from the punch slammed into the spot where Long Chen had just been standing, blasting a large crater in the ground. The earth shattered, sending chunks of debris flying everywhere.
Long Chen’s brow furrowed.
From that single punch, I can sense an incredibly formidable power. To produce such force with a casual gesture... his strength must be at least the Ninth Level of the War King Realm, if not the Warlord Realm!
Seeing Long Chen in disarray, Ma Cheng couldn’t help but burst out laughing. "Well, boy, weren’t you arrogant a moment ago? Why so quiet now? Not laughing anymore?
"An ant like you dares to shout in my presence? You’re simply seeking death!"
Long Chen remained silent in the face of Ma Cheng’s mockery, having no intention of dignifying it with a response. His gaze was fixed firmly on Liu Yukun, his fighting spirit surging.
"So be it," Long Chen said. "I’ll use you to test my current strength!"
As his words fell, his battle qi erupted from his body. An immensely powerful pressure instantly swept out, causing the very air to feel like it was solidifying.
A corner of Liu Yukun’s mouth curled up, his eyes filled with contempt as if he wasn’t taking Long Chen seriously at all. With an air of casual indifference, he simply extended a finger. A ripple of energy coalesced at his fingertip, forming a beam of Qi Force that shot toward Long Chen.
Faced with this attack, Long Chen did not dodge. He threw a direct punch to meet it!
The Qi Force exploded with a threatening hum!
BOOM!
A deafening explosion erupted as the two energies collided, releasing a dazzling flash of light. Although Long Chen’s punch had neutralized some of its power, Liu Yukun’s attack still possessed immense impact as it continued hurtling toward him.
Forced into a corner, Long Chen had no choice but to swiftly summon his puppet.
THUD!
Another dull impact rang out. Long Chen was thrown back several steps before he finally managed to regain his footing, his expression grim. As for the puppet, it had been sent flying.
Long Chen sighed inwardly. I was lucky I prepared for that in advance, or I would have really been in for it. Even though I just broke through to the First Layer of the War Sect Realm, the gap between me and the Ninth Level of the War King Realm is still massive. Without using Dragon Blood Boiling, a Secret Technique of Gods and Demons, I’m simply no match for him!
Liu Yukun stared at Long Chen with disdain as battle qi swirled around him. He unleashed a powerful palm strike, sending it flying toward Long Chen!
"The game ends here, ant!"
