Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

Dragon's Scale, touch it and face wrath!

And Lian Hongshang is exactly one of those untouchable scales of Li Chen.

Whoever dares to cross this line, regardless of your status or strength, the result is always the same:

Death!

Jian Changming saw Li Chen's eyes filled with murderous intent, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"What do you intend to do?"

Li Chen looked at Jian Changming, and shouted in a steady voice, "Old bastard, as the enforcer of this Immortal Sect competition, you have been unjust. You deserve to die!"

Hearing that Li Chen wanted to kill him, Jian Changming was initially stunned, then burst into laughter.

Though his strength was not as great as his sect-leader senior brother Jian Chen, he was still a seasoned Nascent Soul. Now, a junior who has yet to form his Golden Core dared to utter such mad words about killing him; it was simply absurd.

"Li Chen brat, I admit your talent is monstrous, but if you think you can disregard everyone and act unruly because of it, let me tell you, you're far from it!"

As he spoke, the violent True Yuan within him erupted like a tornado, displaying the terrifying pressure of a Nascent Soul cultivator without a doubt.

However, to Jian Changming's words, Li Chen had only one response: Kill!

In his eyes, there seemed to be beams of light shooting out. The Seven-star Dragon Abyss in his hand, wrapped in an invincible radiance, shot straight into the Nine Heavens Cloud.

Using it as the core, countless Magic Swords around them extended outward like rippling water.

Seeing this scene, even the experienced Nascent Soul Jian Changming couldn't help but change his expression.

Yet he showed no sign of fear. After all, he was a Nascent Soul cultivator. His talent might not match the new generation's Heavenly Prides like Jian Wuheng, but he hadn't lived these centuries in vain.

"Li Chen brat, since you are determined to seek death, I'll grant it to you!"

After a furious roar, Jian Changming summoned his Lifebound Magic Sword. His entire body shone with brilliance, ancient Magic Spells seemed to swirl around him, layer upon layer, flashing with dazzling lights.

Then, with a sword in both hands and a step forward, the ground beneath him split open with fissures. His wide sleeves were filled by the violent wind, even his hair stood up wildly as if charged with energy.

"Earth Splitting Slash!"

This was the seventh sword of the Heavenly Sword Nine Techniques, but unleashed by the seasoned Nascent Soul Jian Changming, its power was ten times greater than when Jian Wuheng had used it before.

Both sides, fearless, unleashed their strongest killing moves, with raging True Yuan, crashing into each other like two super tornados.

"Boom!"

Deafening explosions resounded through the sky, shaking the earth and mountains. Massive rocks fell like a landslide.

"Hiss!"

In an instant, everyone couldn't help but inhale sharply.

Li Chen had brought them so many shocks today, far beyond their understanding and imagination of the world.

At the same time, they secretly wondered, in this collision of blood and fire, of life and death, who would emerge victorious?

The vast majority believed that Li Chen would inevitably lose. No matter how monstrous his talent, he was still just a Half Golden Core cultivator.

His opponent, Jian Changming, was a seasoned Nascent Soul Great Power. The gap in cultivation between them was a two-level chasm, impossible to bridge by sheer force.

No one knew how much time had passed before the swirling dust finally settled.

At the storm's center, Li Chen and Jian Changming were still locked in their life-and-death confrontation.

But at this moment, Li Chen's eyes were bloodshot, his face pale, with traces of blood at the corner of his mouth.

In contrast, Jian Changming, though his clothes were somewhat tattered, still radiated vigor.

The comparison of their strength was now evident!

Jian Changming saw that Li Chen had taken a strike from him and hadn't fallen, and his eyelid couldn't help but twitch.

But seeing Li Chen's aura significantly weakening, even the brilliant light of the Seven-star Dragon Abyss had dimmed.

Clearly, Li Chen was now at the end of his strength, holding on with nothing but his last breath!

Thinking of this, a smug smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Li Chen brat, don't think just because you have some talent, you can disregard elders and do as you please. Today, I shall cripple your cultivation as punishment!"

Hearing Jian Changming's intention to cripple Li Chen's cultivation, everyone's face changed.

They understood, on the Jiuzhou Continent, strength was revered.

For cultivators like them, being stripped of their cultivation was worse than death itself.

Moreover, Li Chen has countless enemies. If he didn't possess this formidable cultivation, he would definitely be slaughtered by minor thugs.

Jian Changming's actions not only aim to kill but also to shatter the heart. His ruthless methods are chilling!

Zhao Yuqing's nerves were tense, quietly channeling True Yuan, gathering it upon her Spirit Sword. It seemed she was ready to take action.

However, at that moment, Lian Hongshang suddenly grabbed her wrist holding the sword.

Zhao Yuqing was taken aback, looking at Lian Hongshang with confusion.

Lian Hongshang didn't speak, simply shook her head and used her eyes to signal Zhao Yuqing not to act rashly.

Zhao Yuqing hesitated for a moment, but then her taut nerves gradually relaxed.

Though still bewildered, she trusted Lian Hongshang from the depth of her heart, not even asking for a reason as she transferred her gaze back to Li Chen, silently praying for him.

"Brother Li Chen, come on!"

Hearing Jian Changming arrogantly threaten to abolish his cultivation, Li Chen showed no fear. Instead, a sinister and eerie smile appeared on his lips.

"Just an old thing like you dreaming of abolishing my cultivation? Dream on!"

"Soul Capturing!"

Before he even finished speaking, his pupils contracted sharply, shooting out two eerie beams like serpents, boring into Jian Changming's Sea of Consciousness.

Jian Changming's mind shook violently, inwardly exclaiming that it was bad, realizing Li Chen had such bizarre techniques to attack the Divine Soul.

He previously thought Li Chen had exhausted his True Yuan, becoming a spent force incapable of resistance, thus lacking any defense.

Moreover, the two were so close, he had no chance to dodge.

Furthermore, this Divine Soul Attack was an extremely bizarre technique, killing invisibly. Few from reputable sects practice it; only some masters from the Demon Sect are adept at such wicked arts.

Therefore, when Li Chen unleashed the Soul Capturing Technique, although Jian Changming realized the situation was grim, it was already too late.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Chen discarded his sword, swiftly clasped his hands, and formed a peculiar Dharma Seal.

The Qingzhou Tripod within him resonated with it, manifesting a mountain above his head.

Initially, the mountain was small, only the size of a fist.

However, as True Yuan from within Li Chen poured in continuously, it expanded rapidly with the wind, soon growing to the size of a house, and continued swelling visibly into a majestic and towering mountain.

"Is this the Daqing Mountain?"

Many cultivators from Yingzhou recognized the mountain, exclaiming in surprise.

Ling Shuanghua's pupils also snapped open, filled with an incredulous gleam.

She finally understood why such a large Daqing Mountain had disappeared into thin air earlier.

At this incredible scene, those significant figures on the high platform instinctively stood up.

Sect Leader Jian Chen of Heavenly Sword Mountain even shouted on-site, "Young Li Chen, stop!"

However, Li Chen completely ignored him, raising his hands high to support the entire Daqing Mountain, grinning fiercely as he looked at Jian Changming like observing a dead man.

"Old thing, I said you'll die, you must die today!"

"Daqing Mountain Seal!"

"Ah, no!"

Jian Changming didn't expect Li Chen to wield such heaven-defying means, was shocked into losing composure, his expression panicked, devoid of any Nascent Soul Great Power's dignity.

In the face of Death God, whether you are noble or slave, all are equal.

"Die for me!"

Li Chen lifted Daqing Mountain and pressed it fiercely towards Jian Changming.

"Boom!"

The world shook, and the earth trembled!

Amidst swirling dust, a mountain resembling a tombstone towered in the air, piercing the clouds.

The Peak Master of Jianlai Peak on Heavenly Sword Mountain, Nascent Soul Cultivator Jian Changming, fell namelessly!

At this moment, silence returned to heaven and earth. Everyone stood wide-eyed, mouths agape, faces full of disbelief.

Even witnessing firsthand, they still couldn't believe Li Chen, merely a Golden Core Stage Loose Cultivator, publicly obliterated the Nascent Soul Great Power of Heavenly Sword Mountain. Such feat is unprecedented, perhaps even Emperor Yu of ancient illustriousness couldn't achieve such a shocking display!
