Chapter 1383 - 1383: Dark Explosion
Chapter 1383 – 1383: Dark Explosion
The new world where Long Chen had just landed faced the same massacre as the last one, but it was even more Swift.
Everyone who stood in his path was killed. However, before long, the real leading cultivators of the city came flying.
A flaming sun appeared above the head of Long Chen, which came flying down at the fastest Speed.
From the left, thousands of golden arrows came towards him. From the right, a mighty elephant made purely of energy was running towards him.
Long Chen observed all the attacks coming towards him, grinning.
"Not a bad show of skill. Let me show you something as well!"
Long Chen clapped his hand.
Boom~
As his hands came together, a powerful wave of energy left from the impact, flying all around.
The golden essence of energy didn't harm him. It didn't harm any structural either. In fact, it looked like nothing more than an illusion. However, as soon as the golden essence got in contact with the attacks from the enemies, it swallowed them whole.
All the golden arrows were swallowed by the essence of energy. On the other hand, the mighty elephant also disappeared in the storm of the essence. Only the sun was left, which was still falling.
The essence also reached the sun, though. It surrounded the sun, making it impossible to be seen.
The golden essence soon disappeared. But by that time, no remains of the sun were left behind.
"What else do you have? I've been missing this so much! Go ahead and use your best attack!" Long Chen exclaimed, laughing.
Three of the strongest Cultivators were standing in the air, surrounding Long Chen.
"Who exactly is this guy?" One of them muttered under his breath. He had already used his strongest attack, but it didn't even phase Long Chen. It was as if he was dealing with the attack of children.
They didn't understand how this young man was so strong. Where was he from? Why was he suddenly here?
"If you're not going to attack me, let me start!" Long Chen replied. His figure flickered as he appeared above one of the Cultivators.
"Die!" He roared as he brought his Sword of Time down.
Slash~
The Sword cut the Cultivator in half, but it didn't stop there. The Sword actually slipped from Long Chen's hand, flying down towards the ground.
Tuck~
The Sword was stabbed in the ground.
"Attack him when he doesn't have the weapon!" The Cultivators flew towards Long Chen when he was without a weapon.
On the other hand, the sword had stabbed the ground, but it wasn't all. The Sword was releasing a powerful aura. A dark energy kept seeping into the ground, coming from the sword. And that Dark Energy was seeping everywhere.
The earth kept turning darker.
"Good effort. But too weak!" Long Chen declared, holding the two Cultivators' throat in his grasp.
He clenched his fist and snapped the neck of the enemies.
"Who else!" He roared, laughing as he tossed the body aside.
There were many cultivators in this city, but none were as strong as the three cultivators that were killed by Long Chen.
After seeing the strongest of them die so easily, the others didn't dare. They kept flying away at the fastest Speed possible, not daring to attack Long Chen.
Long Chen shook his head, sighing. "Why are you all running? Come and let me kill you."
He didn't chase them though. Instead, he snapped his fingers. Tens of lightning bolts fell from the sky, which took the shape of giant beasts before landing on the ground. One became a lightning lion while the other became a terrifying bear.
All the beasts chased after the Cultivators. In the meantime, Long Chen landed before the Sword of Time. He grasped the hilt and pulled the Sword out.
He didn't understand the chain of events that were set in motion from him pulling the sword. The entire world was filled with the dark energy of the sword. But as the Sword was pulled out, the energy in the ground became unstable. The sword wasn't there to keep it stable.
The entire ground started trembling fiercely, which made Long Chen look down.
"What the…"
Boom~
He couldn't even finish his sentence when the world suddenly blew up. All the corrupt dark energy that the sword of time had tossed aside came out even more explosively.
All the citizens of the world absorbed the energy unwillingly. However, their body wasn't compatible with the energy. Their bodies kept exploding with the unstable energy.
People kept dying even faster. Within seconds, everyone in this world was dead and not just one city.
Even Long Chen hadn't expected this. The sudden burst of dark energy also hurt him while tossing him far away from the world and into deep space.
Quite a lot of Dark Energy was absorbed by the Sword of Time again, but a decent amount of it entered Long Chen's body without being purified.
He was strong, but even then, he couldn't control the energy. He felt like his body was burning in the flames of hell as he floated in the space aimlessly. Most of his body was burnt as well, but it was also slowly being healed by that same dark energy that destroyed his body.
He also struggled to breathe in space; however, that problem was soon solved as he cast his Spatial Barrier to protect him in vast space before losing consciousness.
He didn't forget to send his sword of time back in his ring before Falling unconscious as he didn't want to lose it in space.
But he also made a mistake with that. The same Sword which he sent back in the ancient ring was helping him refine the Dark Energy. Without the Sword, something had changed. Long Chen was changing.
…
Long Chen floated in the endless space, unconscious. Dark Veins kept appearing and disappearing all around his body throughout the flight.
Six more months passed, and he still didn't wake up. Long Chen had spent one entire year in this trial, and it was unclear if he could even wake up and go back.
The bottle which was in his pocket was still intact though. And it was completely filled as well.
After an unknown amount of time, Long Chen's fingers moved. There was a change in his breathing pattern, which was slow all this while. It was getting faster.
After a couple of seconds, he slowly opened his eyes which were pitch black now like the eyes of a Demon.
The part of his eyes that was previously white was pitch black now.. On the other hand, his pupils were still their usual golden color.
