Dragon War God - Chapter 314 - Crimson Devil Sword Technique

Chapter 314 – Crimson Devil Sword Technique

Most of the villagers of Goldfish Island had gone back to their houses, but two of them had decided to return to where Ling Xi and the Ninth Prince were. The duo were Chen Feng and Chen Lei. They knew that the Ninth Prince was trying to lay a hand on Ling Xi, but the latter had chosen to completely disregard him. Chen Feng was worried, so he and his son had snuck back to where Ling Xi was. They were hiding nearby when they saw Long Chen arrive.

“Long Chen? I thought he went to the capital to become an Immortal Guard. Why is he back?” Chen Feng was surprised.

“Father, I wouldn’t worry about that right now. Long Chen and the Ninth Prince are going to fight because of Ling Xi. The Ninth Prince is part of the imperial family, and all of them are talented individuals. What will we do if Long Chen dies?” Chen Lei was anxious. He had been suspicious of Long Chen’s kindness when Long Chen first arrived on Goldfish Island, but he had officially recognized Long Chen as a friend after the latter saved the island. Chen Lei was even regretting his actions back then.

“We are only at the First River Stage. Let’s watch and see if there’s anything we can do to help them, though I doubt we can do much.”

“Understood. Wait, they are fighting now!”

Once Ling Xi retreated to a safe distance, Long Chen and Xiaolang worked together. Xiaolang chose to fight Elder Yan while Long Chen chose the Ninth Prince.

“Xiaolang, Elder Yan is at the Sixth River Stage. You are only at Category Four; are you sure you can do it?” Long Chen whispered hurriedly to Xiaolang.

Xiaolang nodded, his eyes exuding an intense murderous intent. Demonic beasts were famed for their killing intent, and Xiaolang’s killing intent was almost as intense as Long Chen’s.

The Ninth Prince smiled at the insignificant Long Chen and Xiaolang.

“Elder Yan, go and distract that beast. I want to show Ling Xi how useless Long Chen is, and how much better I am!”

Elder Yan nodded and said nothing before giving Xiaolang a taunting look. He sidestepped, and Xiaolang growled before tensing all four of his legs and barreling towards Elder Yan.

Even though Xiaolang was only a Category Four, he still had a chance to win against Elder Yan thanks to two very special techniques, the Nine Devil Ancestral Fire and Divine Fire Clone!

Long Chen had shared his knowledge on Divine Fire Clone before entering the Counter Essence Realm. He took a glance at Xiaolang and saw that there were traces of Divine Fire Seeds in him. That meant that Xiaolang had learned how to use Divine Fire Clone.

Long Chen also saw that the Ninth Prince had traces of Divine Fire Seeds, and there were twenty-five of them! That meant that the Ninth Prince had cultivated Divine Fire Clone to the third stage!

Elder Yan and Xiaolang started their battle while Long Chen was still glaring at the Ninth Prince. Their auras rose rapidly, but the Ninth Prince was surprised that Long Chen was matching his!

Long Chen was an insignificant insect back in Yuanling City, but he had become so much stronger in less than two months! Long Chen could even fight the Ninth Prince today! Long Chen was a monstrous genius that brought him great fear. He had thought that he could use Long Chen, but he had decided that Long Chen would forever be his enemy once the beautiful Ling Xi appeared.

But the Ninth Prince had never expected that the day would come so soon.

“You are the second most talented genius that I’ve ever seen, except for my fourth brother, Lin Zichen. But you will die today. The imperial family is not an entity you can fight against!”

“Are all the people from the imperial family as talkative as you?” Long Chen taunted back. Xiaolang was already fighting, and Goldfish Island was near the capital. He had just killed Song Yuefeng as well, so he didn’t dare to drag this on for too long. He tightened his grip on the Azure Dragon Halberd and ran at the Ninth Prince.

“Are you trying to fight me with that weapon? You dare to flaunt a mere intermediate Earth-tier Divine Arm in front of me?” The Ninth Prince smiled and pulled a sword out of his Universe Pouch without even frowning.

This was the first time Long Chen had fought against a sword user.

Ling Xi was naturally the most anxious of them all. She knew Long Chen had less Qi than the Ninth Prince even after he transformed. Long Chen’s biggest advantage was the Azure Dragon Halberd, and if his Divine Arm was inferior to the Ninth Prince’s weapon, then his chances of winning would plummet!

“Brother Chen …” Ling Xi watched the fight fearfully.

Long Chen took a closer look at the sword in the Ninth Prince’s hand. It was a flaming red sword that was somehow made from a jade-like material, but the edge of the sword was still sharp! The biggest feature of the sword was the nine Fire Essences embedded on it. The temperature around them rose dramatically!

“I’m sure Elder Yan has explained this to you. This is an advanced Earth-tier Divine Arm, the Fire Essence Sword. It enables me to fight those at the Seventh River Stage even though I’m only at the Sixth River Stage, much less a piece of trash at the Fourth River Stage like you.”

Long Chen was clearly not his opponent, which was why the Ninth Prince was not worried at all. He shot a happy look at the anxious Ling Xi.

“We will soon know who’s trash!” Long Chen waved his halberd, and a massive attack was launched at the Ninth Prince. Starsweep Dragon erupted with starlight and surrounded him!

This was the strongest Starsweep Dragon that Long Chen could muster with his strength at the Fifth River Stage. The Ninth Prince’s robes flapped wildly in the wind.

“Crimson Devil Sword Technique, Heavenly Rend.” The Ninth Prince chuckled and waved his sword in front of him. A crimson slash shot forward and clashed with Long Chen’s Starsweep Dragon. The sound of clashing metal caused discomfort to Long Chen.

Clang!

Long Chen was blown back by the attack. He realized that if he fought head-on, he would lose. The Ninth Prince’s Divine Arm was better, and the Sword Soul residing in his sword attuned it to his body. The Ninth Prince was capable of using twice his normal battle power.

This was the strength of an Armament Warrior! A Sword Warrior belonged to this category, and was naturally good with swords!

But Long Chen was unharmed from the clash!

“So this is all that the Ninth Prince is capable of …” Long Chen’s eyes gradually grew red. The dragon illusions in his body started howling and his mind was clouded by killing intent and the will to battle. Long Chen’s body was close to exploding from it all!

He felt like he could explode at any time and kill the Ninth Prince in a single moment.

“Ling Xi is my woman. You are looking to die if you try to touch her, you toad! You have forced me to kill you!”

A blood mist slowly enveloped Long Chen.

“Are you calling me a toad? You’re the toad! Long Chen, you lack the strength and background that I have. Do you think you are a good match for the beautiful Ling Xi?” The Ninth Prince chuckled and launched another attack.

The Ninth Prince was secretly shocked at the first clash. Long Chen was only at the Fourth River Stage, yet he was capable of launching an attack almost as powerful as his own.

“Azure Dragon Technique, Nine Heavens Dragon Ascension!”

“Crimson Devil Sword Technique, Crimson Land!”

Their techniques clashed again and again. The horrid sound of metal hitting metal made Ling Xi feel discomfort in her ears. Her face paled from feeling the impact of their techniques, and she retreated further. Even though she was retreating, she never once looked away from Long Chen.

Long Chen was slowly being pushed back by the Ninth Prince. It was only a matter of time before he lost!

The Ninth Prince was very powerful with the advanced Earth-tier Divine Arm and his Sixth River Stage strength. Crimson Land was also a powerful technique that launched consecutive attacks that pushed Long Chen back like an unstoppable wave!

Ling Xi failed to notice it, but the Ninth Prince did not. He knew he was pushing Long Chen into a corner, but the killing intent coming from Long Chen had not dissipated at all. The Ninth Prince was worried because a desperate man was the worst foe to fight against. He knew that Long Chen was very desperate from his bloodshot eyes.

“You are indeed a tough opponent. That makes me want to kill you more! Long Chen, I wonder, how much further have you cultivated your Divine Fire Clone? How would you like to be killed by a Divine Fire Clone?” the Ninth Prince asked, sounding ominous.

“Divine Fire Clone …” Long Chen finally managed to deflect the Ninth Prince’s attack. He saw that the Ninth Prince wanted to end things quickly, and Long Chen had no reason to keep his Divine Fire Clone a secret.

“Let me show you what the true Divine Fire Clone is …”

When Long Chen said this, an intense heat wave exploded from where Xiaolang was. With Xiaolang at the center, a black flame radiated outward, and numerous wolves made of black flames appeared!

“A hundred and twenty-five clones?!”

The Ninth Prince was shocked!
