Rise of the Demon God-Chapter 1516:
Chapter 1516:
Long Chen had completely healed, and now he was back even stronger. Not only was he able to use his Laws against, but he could also use the Sword of Time better now.
The Sword of Time could be used with the help of Origin Energy, and that Origin was what was corrupting Long Chen at the beginning. But now, his core had evolved after being damaged, and now it was able to accommodate the Origin Energy along with the Qi.
Long Chen could use both to cultivate now but the biggest advantage to it all Wass his ability to control the Sword of Time! The Sword felt much more comfortable in his hands, and he understood it even more. It was as if the bond between him and his sword had only strengthened.
The Ice Phoenix was stunned; no matter where it moved, Long Chen appeared to be looking in its direction as if the mist was useless. His vision was perfectly intact.
The Dark Phoenix didn’t realize that Long Chen was using Buddha’s gaze, which gave him the ability to see through illusions and obstructions like the mist. This much was nothing as he could even use the vision to see through the weak points of someone’s body.
Firmly holding the sword of time in his hand, Long Chen flashed a calm look. “As I said before, I can see you. And I can even kill you. But I will still give you a chance to survive! Escort us to the exit of the Maze of Death, and I won’t kill you.”
The Ice Phoenix screeched in anger. “You! You think you can command me just because you can see me? That just means I can’t toy with you but did you really think it meant you’ll get to live!”
Long Chen simply smiled in response. For a moment, his future disappeared. The next moment he appeared back in his place. Everything happened so fast that it happened in the blink of an eye.
The Ice Phoenix gazed toward her shoulder, stunned. Her right arm was missing. She looked to the ground. Surprisingly, her detached arm was lying on the ground right beside her. Her hand had been sliced, yet she didn’t even notice. And it all happened so fast.
Moreover, since the Ice Phoenix was dead, she couldn’t feel the pain either.
“That could’ve been your head. If I were you, I would try to form my next few words more carefully.”
It was like a warning from Long Chen in the form of her hand. If he could cut her hand this easily, it wasn’t hard for him to slice her neck.
“You Mortal dare to mock me!” Instead of taking the advice of Long Chen, the Ice Phoenix appeared to go crazier instead.
The Ice Phoenix felt as if she was being mocked openly, and it was being done by a youngster.
Following the roar of the Ice Phoenix, the temperature became even colder. The Ice Phoenix called forth a freezing sword which she stabbed on the ground.
As soon as the sword stabbed in the grounds, thousands of Spears shot out of the group, intending to impale anything they could find.
As if sensing danger, Long Chen grabbed the hand of Ling and pulled her closer to him.
Taking Baihu Ling in his embrace against her wishes, Long Chen teleported to appear right behind the Ice Phoenix. That space appeared to be the safest.
As expected, as soon as he appeared behind the Ice Phoenix, he noticed thousands of Spears coming out of the group straight ahead.
“Don’t tell me I didn’t try,” Long Chen freed Baihu Ling before swinging his sword.
Despite being in the body of the Ice Phoenix, the spirit couldn’t protect it. The head of the body was sliced by the Sword of Time.
The Sword of Time not only sliced through the dead body, but it also appeared to suck the evil spirit, refining it in the process.
The head dropped to the ground, followed by the body.
Unfortunately, Long Chen still didn’t feel right. It appeared to be too easy. Did he just defeat a God Beast King?
He gazed at Long Tian. “Wasn’t this maze considered to be a stronger treasure than my Sword? How did such a big threat die so easily?”
“The Ice Phoenix wasn’t alive. Her dead body was being controlled by a Spirit. She had already lost most of her strength from what I could decipher, so it makes sense that you managed to defeat her so easily. As for the maze, I would still stick by my statement.”
“This maze is a much higher grade of Treasure than the Sword of Time. Unfortunately, both are different types of treasure. The maze was considered to be a defensive treasure to trap an enemy. Meanwhile, the Sword of Time was meant to be offensive.”
“If you want to see what is stronger, try hitting the walls. You won’t even be able to leave one scratch behind with the Sword of Time. The Ice Phoenix wasn’t even the bigger threat of this place? She was someone like you who entered and died inside.”
“Imagine, if the strongest her could die in this Maze, just how strong will that maze be? On the other hand, you defeated a weaker version. I would even go as far as to say that we were lucky we met her at the dead end and not what killed her. So from now on, you need to be more careful.”
Long Chen affirmed. Long Tian was right. Just because he crossed one dead end, it didn’t mean this maze wasn’t a threat to him.
He turned to Baihu Ling. “Are you alright?’
Baihu Ling nodded. “I am fine. And… And… Thank you for saving my life. You really are strong. I really underestimated you.”
“I should thank you as well. Without that orb, I wouldn’t be able to heal my core. But what was that orb? How did it have so much energy? And do you have more of them?”
“I don’t have them personally, but I have a few back at the Castle. As for what they are, it’s a bit complicated. I doubt I can explain to you. I’m glad that I was able to help you. It saved our lives in response.”
The wall that was blocking both of them started going down as a pathway opened up.
“This should reset the paths for us. Since we crossed a dead end, we are now back on the right path,” Long Tian reminded the young man. “But we need to be more careful this time.”
