Chapter 140 - Blood Devouring Domain
Chapter 140 - Blood Devouring Domain
“He has an even more powerful technique?”
The crowd was still feeling impressed by Long Chen’s prowess, but after Feng Wutian’s cold declaration, they were shocked! “Long Chen had already used his most powerful technique to counter the Fire Bird Transformation. Feng Wutian now has one last trick up his sleeve. This is ...”
The top management of the Turquoise Sun Hall all approved of Long Chen’s performance, but when they heard Feng Wutian, they could guess the outcome of the battle and thought it was a great pity.
Liu Ling was initially depressed over the fact that Feng Wutian and Long Chen’s battle was a draw. When she heard that her beloved had a more powerful technique, she leaped and cheered, “Brother Wutian! Beat him! Teach him a lesson, don’t hold back!”
Liu Yuan and Liu Lan looked at each other. They had a bad feeling. “Father ...”
“Don’t worry. I will step up at the right moment. Feng Wutian is now an inner family member after all, and Long Chen is our only hope for the next generation.”
Liu Lan relaxed after receiving Liu Yuan’s guarantee. Long Chen had already surpassed the benchmark she had set for him, so it didn’t matter now even if he lost to Feng Wutian.
“So, you have one more trick ...” Long Chen squinted.
To be honest, Long Chen had used all his strength to deal with Feng Wutian’s Fire Bird Transformation. He thought this fight would end in a draw, not expecting Feng Wutian to have yet another attack!
Afterwards, a powerful gust of energy locked on Long Chen. He could even feel his movements being restricted—it was getting difficult for him to move!
“Don’t worry, you’ll enjoy this, Long Chen! I didn’t want to kill you, but it’s too bad you made me feel threatened ...” said Feng Wutian in an icy tone.
“You’re spouting a lot of nonsense.”
Long Chen had already retreated to the edge of the stage using the Nine Heavens Dragon Step. Feng Wutian closed in, building up an attack. Judging by his aura, it was already several times more powerful than the Fire Bird Transformation! “The Southern Vermilion Bird family secretly gave me this technique a year ago, and I only successfully mastered it recently. Long Chen, you should feel honored to be the first person to die from this attack!”
Feng Wutian sneered maliciously.
Although Liu Ling supported Feng Wutian, she felt a little uncomfortable upon seeing such a twisted sneer. Even Liu Yuan and Liu Lan’s brows were knitted.
“After Feng Wutian was defeated by Long Chen last time, although he never said it out loud, it deeply traumatized him. I’m afraid he won’t quit until he kills Long Chen.”
Liu Lan’s voice was filled with concern.
Feng Wutian suddenly let out the shrill call of a divine bird, and his Qi turned into blazing flames, burning angrily on his body. A pair of fiery wings suddenly sprouted as his aura exploded! “It’s time to die! Have a taste of this!”
Feng Wutian charged at Long Chen with great fury! “Nine! Heavens! Phoenix! Strike!”
Everyone was startled by how formidable the attack was. Even the mid-Earthly Core Realm Administrators were not confident that they could withstand this attack!
What shocked them even more was that Long Chen had not only decided not to flee, but he was actually charging at Feng Wutian!
“He’s gone mad!”
“Isn’t this suicide?”
“Father!” reminded Liu Lan.
After her reminder, Liu Yuan reacted to save him. No matter what, he was the Sect Elder and he had supported Feng Wutian. Feng Wutian wouldn’t kill him because he saved Long Chen.
Suddenly, thousands of blood whirlpools appeared above Long Chen’s blood-red dragon scales, spinning wildly!
A thick layer of blood Qi hung over the whole stage. Long Chen was in control of the whole space covered by this blood Qi!
Blood Devouring Domain, activate!
This was Long Chen’s second time using the Blood Devouring Domain. Compared to the last time, he was much more familiar with it, and it was used over a much smaller area!
The Blood Devouring Domain was one of the powers of the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon. After learning more about it, Long Chen could control its coverage. The last time he used this technique, it spanned over half of the underground city, which was currently Long Chen’s limit.
The Blood Devouring Domain could cover an area of a certain size. Anyone at a lower cultivation level within this area would find their blood being consumed by Long Chen. Opponents like Feng Wutian, at a higher cultivation level than Long Chen, would feel their blood and Qi boil and have their movements restricted!
Anyone that Long Chen didn’t target, just like Yang Lingqing and the hundreds of girls from before, would not be affected at all!
This technique would grow in strength along with Long Chen’s cultivation. That was why Long Chen didn’t know how powerful the Blood Devouring Domain would be once he became the strongest person in the city. Perhaps the life of every living being in the land would be in the palm of his hand!
That was the power of the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon.
Although it wasn’t an attack-type technique, the Blood Devouring Domain had a huge effect on Feng Wutian, who was about to use his Nine Heavens Phoenix Strike!
This was his first time using the Nine Heavens Phoenix Strike, so he didn’t have absolute control over the technique. The vacuum created by the Blood Devouring Domain wreaked havoc on Feng Wutian’s body!
Long Chen had activated his technique at just the right time; the timing was even better than if he had used it when Feng Wutian used the Fire Spirit Seal or Fire Bird Transformation.
The blood in Feng Wutian’s body suddenly seemed to grow excited, as if it heard the call of its master. It turned into tiny blades that started to surge within his veins and arteries!
Feng Wutian, who had been fully focused on launching the Nine Heavens Phoenix Strike, never would’ve expected this. The chaos in his blood was nowhere near enough to kill him; it would at most make movements difficult in regular circumstances. However, at a moment like this, it was enough to knock the wind out of him.
The Nine Heavens Phoenix Strike he’d been preparing suddenly exploded, and Feng Wutian was launched back by the blast. He was in shock.
Blood sprayed out of his mouth, and he crashed into the ground. The intense changes in his body caused blood to rush into his heart, resulting in him fainting!
The series of unexpected events had unfolded far too quickly. By the time he hit the ground, the crowd was still frozen in shock!
Even Long Chen never expected the Blood Devouring Domain, which he had used out of desperation, to be so effective. He knew that he had only taken advantage of a tiny window of opportunity because Feng Wutian hadn’t fully mastered the Nine Heavens Phoenix Strike yet.
If Feng Wutian had been familiar with the technique, Long Chen would’ve at most weakened the attack and slightly restricted his movements. He would not have caused Feng Wutian to hurt himself with his own attack.
However, he had defeated Feng Wutian nonetheless, so he heaved a sigh of relief.
This time, Feng Wutian had lost to Long Chen in front of many people. This problem could be considered resolved.
Feng Wutian was unconscious, so the fight was over. Long Chen returned to his normal form and smirked, looking at the spectators.
“What happened? Wasn’t Feng Wutian going to use his most powerful attack? Why did he suddenly hurt himself?”
“He probably couldn’t control such a powerful technique and caused it to implode, I guess. Long Chen is lucky to have survived because of that ...”
The lower-ranked disciples might not have seen anything, but the four Elders and the others knew that it was not that simple.
“Didn’t you guys see them? Many tiny blood whirlpools appeared around Long Chen’s body, and then Feng Wutian’s attack hurt himself!”
“Long Chen must have done something. If Feng Wutian dared to use that technique, he must’ve been confident. What technique do you guys reckon Long Chen used? It’s so mysterious!”
The four Elders and Administrators looked at Long Chen with completely different eyes. They previously looked at him with contempt, but now they were filled with respect. “I couldn’t tell before, but Long Chen is actually quite mysterious.”
When they saw Long Chen’s amused look, the old folks couldn’t stand it anymore and looked away. Especially Administrator Zhang, who had previously made a bet against Long Chen. The two other Elders wished the ground would swallow them whole out of shame.
Of course, the one in most disbelief was Liu Ling.
She paid no attention to Feng Wutian. At that moment, all she saw was Long Chen on the stage and that evil grin.
Last time, Feng Wutian had also, to her surprise, lost to Long Chen.
This man was fated to be her unlucky star.
Liu Ling suddenly felt like breaking down. This time, she felt true fear. Seeing Feng Wutian lose to Long Chen once had left her in a state of despair, but Feng Wutian grew stronger afterwards, so she was confident he could defeat Long Chen. But this time, to everyone’s surprise, he lost once again despite being much stronger.
Liu Ling was paler than ever. She shook her head in disbelief, then ran off.
“Ling’er!” yelled Liu Lan, but her younger sister didn’t turn around.
Liu Lan was also in disbelief that Long Chen had turned the tide at the last moment. However, this was not the first time such a thing had happened. Though Liu Lan was completely floored this time!
To her, Long Chen was the definition of an ultimate prodigy!
“Wutian!”
This was Liu Yuan’s first time witnessing such an impressive performance from Long Chen. A huge wave of emotions surged through him, and the memory of the teenager was now deeply etched in his mind.
He was still shaken by Feng Wutian’s tragic state and didn’t have time to talk to Long Chen. If anything happened to Feng Wutian, Liu Yuan would be the one in trouble. That was why he quickly called for the others to save him.
Most people ran towards Feng Wutian, leaving Long Chen bored.
Under their shocked gazes, Long Chen left the Mortal Arena alone.
