Chapter 812 – Five-Colored Altar

“No,” Feng Zhilin answered hurriedly. If other people knew that the sensitive spot on her chest had been hurt by Long Chen’s spear, she would be utterly embarrassed, and may even embarrass the Divine Wind Faction.

When Feng Qing saw that Feng Zhilin did not seem like she was hurt, he was more assured.

Bai Lan and the others and also heard the conversation between them.

“Long Chen and Wu Guangyu are fighting inside now?” Bai Lan furrowed his brows. They could not see what was happening inside, so they were a little worried.

“Brother Bai, what now?”

“We’ll just wait and see.” Bai Lan thought for a while, but this was all they could do.

If they were fighting inside, no one would know the result until the next person with a Divine Space Talisman emerged.

***

Long Chen had just eliminated Feng Zhilin. When he saw a faint drop of blood at the tip of his spear, he knew which part of her body it came from.

“The scent of blood ...” He absorbed the drop of blood, and it turned into a wisp of his essence. He had not used Blood Transmutation in a very long time.

The day he used this divine technique again would be a shocking day.

Wu Guangyu and Suxue’s battle had stopped. Wu Guangyu had resigned from the fight voluntarily. He backed away, ignored Suxue, and then turned to Long Chen. Long Chen saw a solemn look in Wu Guangyu’s eyes for the first time.

“Half a year ago, when you first came to the Ancient Graveyard, you were definitely no match for me. Just half a year has passed, but you have already caught up to me ... Long Chen.” Upon meeting a true opponent, Wu Guangyu became much calmer.

Long Chen gave a slight look of acknowledgment. After Suxue circled around Wu Guangyu and reached Long Chen, Lei Wen finally arrived. When he was still very far away, he had seen something that shocked him—Long Chen had eliminated Feng Zhilin at lightning speed.

“Princess Xue’er, are you alright?” Lei Wen inspected her for a while. Although Suxue was very worn out, she was not injured. This meant that Long Chen had come just in time.

“I’m alright. Long Chen ...” Long Chen and Wu Guangyu were having a standoff.

“It looks like they’re going to fight. Neither has a Divine Space Talisman, so this will likely end in death,” said Lei Wen in a daze.

“If they’re fighting to the death, without Father and the others present, it’ll become very troublesome.” Suxue’s willow-like eyebrows were slightly furrowed. Suddenly, she asked excitedly, “Lei Wen, do you roughly know how many people have been eliminated already? I know Lei Wu has left, and Wu Guangyu seems to have taken out two people from the Five Elements Alliance. Plus Feng Zhilin, it makes four people!”

“Four?” Lei Wen’s eyes lit up. He counted in his heart, then said in a low voice, “Long Chen has eliminated four, and the Divine clan’s couple eliminated one from the Gold clan. This means that nine people have already ...”

“Nine people?” Suxue had already formed a plan. She whispered to Lei Wen, “Wu Guangyu is extraordinarily talented. We must not let them fight here. Lei Wen, attack me now and activate my Divine Space Talisman. If you send me out, the first round will end!”

Lei Wen also had the same idea, but it was slightly different. He said directly in a low voice, “Princess Xue, you’re kidding. With your strength, you can at least reach the top four and maybe become champion. I’m just here to gain experience. Just attack me. And if Uncle Bai and my father found out that I attacked you, they’d eat me up.”

Suxue thought for a moment, then she made her decision. She and Lei Wen were familiar with each other. On the one hand, she was a girl, and girls had to be protected. On the other hand, she was indeed stronger than he was, so the decision had been made.

Long Chen was focused on Wu Guangyu, so he did not know about their plan. Wu Guangyu and he were archnemeses, so they were ready to fight it out here.

The two young prodigies of the Ten Thousand Nations Territory were studying each other.

Ever since Xiaolang was taken away from him, Long Chen had been waiting. Half a year later, that day had finally come.

It was the same for Wu Guangyu. This was a rare opportunity to fight Long Chen.

After receiving the Azure Lotus Lord’s inheritance, he was widely accepted as the most powerful young prodigy. However, Long Chen’s rise challenged his position.

Long Chen was a major nemesis in every aspect.

“Is that ... The Three Thousand Star Clusters ...” Wu Guangyu studied the weapon that Long Chen had used to eliminate Feng Zhilin. Then he slowly raised his hand, revealing the picture of an azure lotus on his palm.

“I’ll show you the divine sword, the Azure Lotus, from the Azure Lotus Lord’s inheritance.” As Wu Guangyu spoke, the lotus on his palm gradually shone with azure light. In contrast to the Three Thousand Star Clusters' iciness, the Azure Lotus’ light was very gentle and filled with life force. Azure light flowed like water, and finally, a one-meter-long sword materialized in his hand. The sword was long, slender, and simple. It was not as eye-catching as the Three Thousand Star Clusters, but its jade-like material exuded the same level of energy.

The Azure Lotus Sword was a weapon on the same level as Long Chen’s Three Thousand Star Clusters.

When it was moved gently, ripples formed on the sword’s surface, making it look both beautiful and very terrifying.

Suddenly, Wu Guangyu’s expression turned cold, and he pointed the Azure Lotus Sword at Long Chen.

“Sword Warriors are naturally born with Sword Souls. They have one more soul than other people. Once they reach the Heavenly Martial Realm, their Sword Soul evolves into a Sword Root. I will use the Azure Lotus Sword as a catalyst to form my Sword Root. Other than the few Second Heavenly Martial Staged cultivators, no one in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory will be a match for me then.

“Sword Warriors are a branch of the Armament Warriors. The Armament Warriors you have previously met were not mature ones. After I have condensed my Sword Root, you will see that Armament Warriors are the most suited people to use weapons. People like you who do not have Armament Souls can only throw punches and kicks. If you want to truly use a weapon, you’re still way far off.”

“Sword Root?” Long Chen had heard before that the Armament Warriors in the Three Royal Territories were different from the ones he had met before. He had also heard from Shao Yu that Wu Guangyu was a true Sword Warrior.

Long Chen was still clueless about the cultivation system of Armament Warriors, but that was not important. The important thing was that it had been easy for him to master the Three Thousand Star Clusters.

“Less of that nonsense. Let’s fight.” When Wu Guangyu saw how clueless Long Chen looked, he did not want to talk to him anymore. With the Azure Lotus Sword in hand, he prepared to charge at Long Chen.

When Wu Guangyu was about to attack, Long Chen suddenly shouted, “Wait!”

“What, are you afraid?” Wu Guangyu stopped. With Long Chen’s personality, he should not have said something like that at this moment.

Long Chen was looking at something behind Wu Guangyu woodenly, so Wu Guangyu hurriedly turned around. However, he saw nothing.

What is he looking at? Wu Guangyu was confused.

He did not see anything. But Long Chen was looking at an illusory Five-Colored Altar behind Wu Guangyu amongst the ruins. The Five-Colored Altar was about ten meters wide, and a five-colored light shone from it. It was very faint, so it was difficult to see unless he was very careful.

What is that? Why did it appear here? Five colors ... Could it be related to the Five Emperors? Long Chen thought about it calmly. He had not expected something like that to appear before his duel.

Everyone looked in the same direction, but they did not see anything. Wu Guangyu asked solemnly, “Long Chen, is it really necessary to pull tricks like that?”

“You can’t see it?” Long Chen realized that no one seemed to be reacting to the strange phenomenon.

“What are you talking about? There’s clearly nothing behind me!” Wu Guangyu said curiously. He looked at Long Chen carefully, and then in the end, he concluded that Long Chen was toying with him.

The Five-Colored Altar continued to sparkle before Long Chen’s eyes.

What is that Five-Colored Altar? Why am I the only one who can see it? Long Chen was stunned for a second. He turned around, ready to ask Suxue and Lei Wen if they could see it. However, he did not know about Suxue’s plans.

She immediately smashed Lei Wen’s Divine Space Talisman.

Whoosh! Lei Wen left the ruins, becoming the tenth person to leave.

Out of the eighteen participants, ten had been eliminated.

Wu Guangyu was speechless, but he reacted quickly. He said angrily, “Long Chen, I didn’t know you would be this cowardly, that you would use a trick like that to buy time. Your plan worked, but let me tell you this—in the next round, if you really are capable, you will meet me sooner or later. Don’t pull tricks like that then, or I will start looking down on you.”

After that, Wu Guangyu turned and walked out. If he attacked now, it would be against the rules.

Long Chen was not actually buying time. However, the altar had disappeared.

He made a mental note of this location.

“Stay here for a while. Someone will get us later. Father and the others have come here many times, so they are familiar with the place. With them leading us, we’ll get out quickly,” Suxue said in a low voice.

Long Chen nodded. He did not say much but circled the location of the altar several times. However, he could not spot anything different.

That’s strange. Why was I the only one who could see the Five-Colored Altar? Is there something different about me compared to the others? Confounding City indeed has a secret.

While Long Chen mulled over it, Bai Lan and the others had entered to get him.
