Long Chen decided to stop hiding after he had been found out.

As far as the regular members of the Blood Saints, Long Chen was like a plague. Wherever he went, people would die.

Once Long Chen had been controlled by the Great Priest, everyone started distancing themselves from him. All of them were now surrounding the Great Priest and Long Chen.

But Li Jing and the two brothers were the ones who were most surprised.

“Sister Li, didn’t you say Long Chen is only at the mid Human Core Realm? Why is he so strong?”

“I don’t know either.”

Li Jing’s heart was beating rapidly. “Looks like I’ve underestimated him. Long Chen’s talent far exceeds ours. I guess he was laughing on the inside when we were warning him just now.”

They had indeed persuaded Long Chen to not attack before.

“Wait, didn’t they just say that Long Chen is from the Lingwu family?”

Li Jing nodded. “Indeed. Only members of the Lingwu family could have such remarkable talent. But I think he’s from the outer family based on his surname.”

“Outer family ... Those from the outer family don’t have a high status, so no wonder he’s the only one here.”

All of them admired him now. They had previously thought Long Chen was the weakest one, but now it was clear it was the other way around.

“He easily dispatched the late Human Core Realm Sect Elders. Even though he’s not at the Earthly Core Realm, his fighting power should be very close to it.”

It was unheard of for someone at the mid Human Core Realm to kill someone at the late Human Core Realm.

Even the Great Priest was admiring Long Chen. “I was told that you were only at the Eighth Draconic Stage when you left your family. But to think you are already at the mid Human Core Realm after just one month. You even have the fighting strength of someone at the peak Human Core Realm. Brat, looks like you are indeed a genius.”

Long Chen had no choice but to risk his life and face the Great Priest now. He had to kill him!

“Great Priest, you are also young, and you’ve reached the Earthly Core Realm. You are more talented than me!”

“Is that so?”

The Great Priest chuckled. “You are from the Lingwu family and yet you came here alone. Looks like you guys know about my true identity! You just interrupted the Sanguine Sacrificial Ceremony and ruined my mood, so I will take your life!”

“Come and get it!”

The atmosphere became very tense when they released their Qi. Everyone was watching eagerly to see what would happen.

“Die!” the Great Priest shouted. Long Chen did not buckle under the pressure, which infuriated the Great Priest even more. The Great Priest exerted even more pressure onto Long Chen and became a mirage!

An Earthly Core Realm expert is indeed stronger than a Human Core Realm cultivator by numerous times!

Long Chen frowned and used the Nine Heavens Dragon Step. Even though it was only an elementary Black-tier Body Combat technique, he could still kite the Great Priest if he used it perfectly.

“Hah! You have a Body Combat technique, but I have a stronger one! Blood Shadow Step!”

The Great Priest became numerous bloody shadows and closed in on Long Chen, his speed much faster than the latter. Long Chen felt an intense pressure bearing down on him.

How strong is the Great Priest?!

But this was not outside of his expectations. The Great Priest was Emperor Yuan’s grandson. Even though he was not important, his family background was not something Long Chen could fight against.

The Nine Heavens Dragon Step had been suppressed by the Blood Shadow Step. It was clear the Blood Shadow Step was an intermediate Black-tier Body Combat technique!

I have intermediate Black-tier Attack, Body Tempering, and Recovery techniques, so I should be using them instead!

Long Chen knew he should be using his resilient body to fight. With his physical body being so strong, his attacks, defense, and speed were all top tier too!

“You might have some tricks up your sleeve, but you are still no match for me!”

The Great Priest cornered Long Chen with the Blood Shadow Step. Even though neither had attacked yet, the Great Priest had seized the initiative.

“We can’t stop the Sanguine Sacrificial Ceremony for too long, so I will end you in one strike. It should be an honor to be killed by this technique ...”

Long Chen heard the Great Priest’s sadistic voice.

“In your dreams!”

Yang Lingqing was staring nervously. She had been confident in Long Chen after seeing him kill the late Human Core Realm cultivators, but now it was clear that he could not win against the Great Priest.

She panicked when she saw that he had been cornered by the Great Priest. She had prepared herself to die after getting caught, but she could not accept that Long Chen would die because of her.

“Brother Long Chen! Run! Don’t worry about me!”

She shouted at the top of her lungs, but Long Chen ignored her.

She then saw the Great Priest launch a powerful attack at Long Chen.

“He’s dead once he gets hit by that!”

Granny Huang chuckled when she saw what was happening. Her wrinkles stacked together when she laughed. It made her look like a demon that had escaped hell.

Nature’s spiritual energy gathered in the Great Priest’s hands, and he quickly formed a seal. The pale, red Qi spun quickly on his hands.

“Do you know why the mark on my forehead is called the Blood Mark?”

Faced with an Earth Core Realm cultivator’s attack, Long Chen took a deep breath, activated the Nine Heavens Dragon Step, and quickly ran towards the Great Priest, launching his strongest attack too.

Without waiting for Long Chen’s reply, the Great Priest gave him the answer. “That’s because my technique is called ... Blood Mark!”

A massive explosion could be heard when the Great Priest launched his attack. A massive, bloody hand seal flew towards Long Chen!

“Burning Devil Sun Fist, Devil Sun Collision!”

“So you have an intermediate Black-tier technique too! Impressive!”

Long Chen’s technique clashed with the Great Priest’s technique amidst the laughter.

Everyone, including Li Jing, was shocked to see how strong their attacks were.

“Sister Li, do you think he can win?” Li Cheng mumbled.

“He’s already using all of his strength against an Earthly Core Realm cultivator. I’m afraid he might not win.”

Long Chen and the Great Priest collided once more!

This was the strongest technique Long Chen could use. Even Feng Wutian had lost to the Devil Sun Collision.

But the Great Priest was considerably stronger than Feng Wutian. The mysterious Blood Mark had struggled against the Devil Sun Collision, but Long Chen didn’t have enough Qi to sustain it! His Qi reserves were too shallow to unlock the true strength of the Devil Sun Collision!

It was the first time he had seen the Devil Sun Collision lose to another technique! The massive wave of Qi crashed into Long Chen’s body!

He tried his best to evade it, but the Blood Mark’s impact still made him spit blood from the impact.

He hadn't received such a painful injury in a long time. His strength instantly declined because of it!

One more time! I can’t lose now!

“Long Chen! Use Recovery!” 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝓮𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢

With Ling Xi’s warning, Long Chen steadied his body and used the intermediate Black-tier Recovery.

A white glow circulated in his body and repaired the damage to his flesh.

Even though the Great Priest’s attack was strong, Long Chen had the Blazing Thunder Combat Body to endure it. In addition, his dragon scales had mitigated most of the damage, and he had dodged the majority of the attack anyway. Therefore, his injuries were not as bad as they seemed.

But everyone, including the Great Priest, thought that the previous attack was more than enough to kill Long Chen.

Yang Lingqing was already sobbing, while Li Jing and the two brothers wanted to risk their lives fighting against the Great Priest.

“Too bad. Such incredible talent, yet you chose to oppose me. Death was a mercy for you.”

The Great Priest then turned around to kill Li Jing and the other two. free(w)ebnov(e)l

“You must have a wild imagination to think that you could kill me with just that attack.”

Long Chen had more or less recovered to his peak thanks to Recovery.

“Impossible!”

The Great Priest’s pupils shrank from shock.

He knew that the Blood Mark was an incredibly powerful technique. He had even killed other cultivators at the Earthly Core Realm with it. How could a cultivator at the mid Human Core Realm endure it?

“Impossible! Long Chen, die!”

Yang Lingqing was joyous when she saw that Long Chen was fine, but the pressure was still intense enough to suffocate her when the Great Priest used the Blood Mark once more.

“Brother, please survive ...”

Long Chen remained calm after surviving the Great Priest’s attack.

It’s difficult for him to kill me when I have the Devil Sun Collision, the Blazing Thunder Combat Body, and Recovery ... But it’s impossible for me to rescue Lingqing! I can only stall for time! His eyes flashed towards Yang Lingqing, and he saw her crying.

Long Chen was stuck in a dilemma, but he had no time to think. The Great Priest had just launched another Blood Mark at him!

Long Chen was wary of the attack.

“You won’t kill me that easily! Devil Sun Collision!”

Long Chen avoided the killing blow once more. This time, the Great Priest lost all of his patience.

“Everyone, kill the Blood Origins! Granny Huang, I leave the Dark Yin Body to you!”
