Chapter 1219: Chapter 1191: The Undying
Throughout his life, Yun Canglong encountered many enemies and opponents.
Among these people, there were some strong and difficult opponents. But in the end, he still won, which is why he is alive today.
Otherwise, he might have long become a legend in the Martial Artist World, and his body would have turned into a handful of yellow soil by now.
However, among the many opponents he had faced, none were as troublesome as Li Chen.
Yun Canglong wasn’t someone who only practiced in closed-door cultivation; he was once young too, traveling the world, visiting many places.
He even took a ship across the ocean to a continent where the culture was entirely different from that of Huaxia.
In those places, he also encountered some tricky beings, such as a type of vampire-like creature with extremely hard bodies and superb regenerative abilities.
And others like wolf-like creatures, but whose strength was far greater than that of the average martial artist.
Yet, he had never encountered anyone as troublesome as the person he was facing now, no one more troublesome than him!
Because, although his attacks were strong, and seemed to deliver deadly damage with every move, before long, this monstrous young man would stand up again, leaping around wielding that terrifying blood-colored blade to attack him.
And the most insidious part was, this young man seemed to be aware that he was hard to kill, and always engaged in a life-for-life combat style.
He could pierce through his heart, and his blade could hit his neck.
It’s just that simple.
Can Yun Canglong fight him?
Of course not!
Even though he didn’t know whether that sword could truly break through his protective True Qi to tear his neck, Yun Canglong knew that getting hit by that bloodred blade would certainly not be something pleasant.
As for himself... even if he could pierce through his heart, it might not be possible to kill him, right?
At this moment, Yun Canglong no longer considered Li Chen as a new star in the Martial Artist World, a junior worth cultivating.
In his eyes, Li Chen was a monster, a complete monster.
This guy was even crazier than his father back then.
At least, if it were his father, he wouldn’t mix unknown things into his body and turn into this ghostly state.
But Li Chen dared to, and he did it.
Although Yun Canglong didn’t know how Li Chen turned into this, he was certain that pure inheritance and cultivation wouldn’t result in such a state or possess such an Undying body.
Even the Demonic Path cultivation techniques could not achieve this!
If Li Chen knew Yun Canglong’s thoughts at this moment, he would laugh heartily and tell him, "This is the power of science!"
But obviously, he didn’t know Yun Canglong’s thoughts, and now, he indeed lacked the strength to speculate on Yun Canglong’s thoughts.
"The regeneration speed has slowed down." Looking at the scar on his chest, Li Chen lowered his head slightly, his long red hair falling over his forehead, obscuring his expression.
"There are not many opportunities left. If I don’t seize it, there might really be no chance left. If this drags on, even with the Undying body, I might die."
"Once more!"
Li Chen slightly raised his head, his face once again taking on a crazed look as he fiercely approached Yun Canglong.
Indeed, Red Moon was a Demon Blade. ’Blood Fury’ gave Li Chen unparalleled strength, but equally, this power was a great burden on Li Chen’s body.
If not for the super-speed regeneration ability he had acquired by chance, his body might have collapsed by now.
Let alone dealing with this collapse while repairing the damage caused during the battle with Yun Canglong.
This regenerative power was indeed domineering, but even such power had its limits.
Even Li Chen himself hadn’t noticed that he was gradually reverting to his original normal appearance, and his over-two-meter-tall body silently shrank by a circle.
This state, he was about to lose it.
"Unsheathing the sword!"
"Clang! Clang!"
Two loud clanging sounds, the blade light struck Yun Canglong’s right arm, while Red Moon’s blade sliced his left arm, causing two deep marks to appear on the golden arm armor, and the glow dimmed significantly.
The Red Moon in Li Chen’s hand also changed from its previous deep red to a light red, and Red Moon seemed unable to hold on much longer.
Person against person, weapon against weapon.
The battle between martial artists is like this. Any side weakening could tip the battle’s outcome.
"Boom!"
Another dull thud sounded as Li Chen kicked towards Yun Canglong with vigorous True Qi, but Yun Canglong seemed prepared and kicked out simultaneously, colliding with Li Chen’s leg.
"Crunch!"
Li Chen’s leg broke.
However, this result didn’t seem to be unexpected, and Yun Canglong showed no sign of surprise.
Because such results had already occurred four or five times in the past.
But at this moment, Li Chen’s broken leg suddenly twisted and hooked onto Yun Canglong’s foot.
Using a broken leg to hook Yun Canglong, this was probably something only Li Chen could pull off.
Because Yun Canglong could easily shatter his broken leg with a burst of True Qi.
Yet at this moment, a smile appeared on Li Chen’s face.
For some reason, seeing the smile on Li Chen’s face, a bad premonition surged in Yun Canglong’s heart.
With a surge of True Qi in his arms, the sharpness of Metal Attribute erupted entirely, as if countless sharp blades were stabbing towards Li Chen.
But Li Chen ignored this targeted aura, suddenly retracting the Red Moon, lightly slashing towards the air.
As if it were an aimless slash, like a beginner practicing the simplest blade exercises.
But after seeing this slash, Yun Canglong’s face changed for the first time.
Turning ugly.
Li Chen opened his somewhat dry lips, possibly due to blood loss, and lightly uttered a few words.
"Wind Roar."
"Whoosh, whoosh—"
Innumerable blood-red blade lights suddenly erupted, centering around Li Chen.
And this time, the blade lights didn’t fly chaotically but started rotating around the two, as per Li Chen’s intention.
Like a tornado rising from the ground, it spun wildly.
Except that this tornado was blood-colored!
Yun Canglong immediately wanted to escape the range of this blood-colored tornado; his intuition told him it was extremely dangerous.
But when he struggled, he remembered his foot was hooked by Li Chen’s broken leg.
His body instinctively paused for a moment.
And because of this moment of hesitation, the blood-colored tornado suddenly closed in.
"Damn it!!" From within the blood-colored tornado came Yun Canglong’s furious roar.
