Dragon Blooded War God

Chapter 498: Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman

The moment Long Chen turned to leave, Zhao Wuji quickly pulled out a light-purple paper talisman from his Universe Pouch. Dark purple runes were drawn all over the talisman, and every rune turned into dense tendrils of electricity. The electricity that wove around the talisman turned into runes, blending back into the paper once more.

When the talisman was pulled out, Long Chen felt a sharp rise in the surrounding temperature. He had not deactivated his Dragon Soul Transformation, yet he could feel prickling pain all over his skin.

A powerful source of energy had appeared out of thin air behind him.

What was that?! Long Chen was startled and sprinted away immediately. While he ran, he turned around and saw Zhao Wuji’s contorted features, as well as the talisman in his hand, which was crackling with electricity!

“Jiang Cheng, this is something my master gave me. It’s a talisman meant to keep me alive—the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman! Anyone beneath the Eighth Passage Stage will certainly die when faced with this. Enjoy your death!” When Long Chen turned around, Zhao Wuji was laughing like a maniac!

When Long Chen saw the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman, he knew something was wrong. It had not even been used yet, but it was already radiating such powerful energy. If Zhao Wuji used it, even an Eighth Passage Stage cultivator would end up half-dead, let alone Long Chen!

Zhao Wuji had reached the Fourth Passage Stage at a very young age, even mastering advanced Heaven-tier techniques. He was likely to become a Devil King, so the Red Ghost King liked him very much. At the same time, he knew that this direct disciple of his loved to get himself into vicious fights, so he was worried that he would suddenly be killed by a random master. That was why he had given him the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman!

Zhao Wuji had only received it two or three days ago, yet he was already using it against Long Chen. Holding back his pain, he laughed and threw the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman towards Long Chen!

Although it was merely a piece of paper, it shot out as fast as the average throwing weapon. Long Chen was very close, so he was quickly targeted by the talisman! This was why talisman attacks were powerful. Once the talisman locked onto its target, its target would never be able to escape!

It was almost as if Zhao Wuji could see what Long Chen would look like after he was burnt black by the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman. He would be reduced to charcoal, completely dead. That was what Zhao Wuji wanted to see happen.

Just as Zhao Wuji imagined, the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman flew above Long Chen’s head and then exploded into a three-meter-wide lightning ball. The blinding, purple lightning lit up half the sky above the Clear Shallows Pavilion!

Fierce purple lightning wove around the purple ball of electricity, crackling loudly. The surrounding temperature rose and the whole barren mountain was lit with incredible light from the lightning. The wielder of the attack, Zhao Wuji, would remain completely safe!

“Die!” Zhao Wuji let out an evil laugh when he saw Long Chen completely trapped by the lightning ball. Then he activated the talisman, and the gigantic lightning ball exploded above Long Chen’s head!

Boom!

Endless lightning shot out of the barren mountain with Long Chen as the center point. The mountain boulders around them turned into powder. When the mighty lightning swept across the area, not even a tiny mosquito would survive such an ordeal!

Bright light cut through the darkness of the night sky, lighting up the whole Clear Shallows Pavilion!

Even the deafening boom traveled very far!

Looking at the patch of purple before him, Zhao Wuji was sure that even Long Chen’s ashes would not remain. When the power of the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman slowly faded, Zhao Wuji checked and realized that all the rocks around them had disappeared and a huge crater remained where Long Chen used to be. Even the soil had turned black. It was clear just how powerful the talisman was!

“He’s dead! Hehe, he’s finally dead! This is what happens to anyone who tries to fight me!” Zhao Wuji laughed like a madman as he struggled to stand up. However, his body kept twitching from the pain in his crotch. He looked down and saw only a blur of blood and flesh; he was unable to distinguish anything.

You’ve ended my bloodline! Jiang Cheng, you may have brought me the greatest pain, but I won in the end because you have been turned into powder by my lightning! With that thought, Zhao Wuji felt comforted.

However, he still felt tortured because he was going to be a eunuch before he had a chance to bed a woman.

I need to go back and look for Master. He must have some type of medicine that can help me. The explosion was very loud, so people will arrive very soon. I cannot stay for long! Then he quickly scrambled to stand up.

“Do you need me to help you up?” A familiar voice came from behind him.

“Alright … Who are you?” Zhao Wuji replied instinctively, then when he realized who it was, his face paled. He turned around with great difficulty. The person standing behind and looking down at him was Long Chen.

Long Chen gazed at him with amusement, though he was internally a little traumatized. He had learned a huge lesson today.

If Blood Warp weren’t fast enough to break free from the talisman, he would not have survived. Although Long Chen rarely used Blood Warp and Blood Sacrifice, the techniques of the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon were admittedly powerful. Regular people could not hide once they were targeted by a talisman, but Long Chen could!

Of course, Long Chen could also use Rewind, but it was too painful. Using Blood Warp was more direct, and Rewind had to be avoided since it was only supposed to be used in painful situations.

Zhao Wuji had truly taught him a lesson—no matter how weak his opponent was, he had to take them seriously. He had severely underestimated Zhao Wuji, and due to the contempt in his heart, he had not taken him seriously. That was how he had been tricked into coming here in the first place, even almost getting himself killed!

The Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman was definitely powerful enough to kill Long Chen.

Thankfully, he had survived due to the extremely fast Blood Warp.

Long Chen understood that he could not keep enemies who wanted to kill him alive. If he let Zhao Wuji go now, he would try his best to kill Long Chen again.

Zhao Wuji saw the coldness in Long Chen’s eyes.

“That’s impossible! How did you survive?! With such a powerful explosion, you should be very dead!” Zhao Wuji scrambled backwards with terror. This time, he was truly afraid.

“There are many things that you do not know,” said Long Chen, shaking his head. “Zhao Wuji, you taught me a huge lesson. To be honest, I’m very thankful, but now you need a taste of your own medicine …”

“No! I’m begging you!” Zhao Wuji screamed in fear as he gazed at Long Chen in despair. Long Chen’s intentions were clear—he wanted to kill Zhao Wuji!

His despair and begging did not make Long Chen’s heart soften.

Sharp claws pierced into Zhao Wuji’s chest and crushed his heart. Zhao Wuji’s eyes widened, still filled with despair. Unfortunately, it was too late. He was the one who had made Long Chen decide to kill him. There was no one else to blame.

Long Chen sighed and said, “Xiaolang, lend me your fire.”

He used the Soul Swallowing Gaze to survey his surroundings. After such a huge commotion, people would be arriving soon.

Xiaolang hurried out of the Primordial Realm. His Nine Devils Ancestral Fire was perfect for burning corpses and destroying evidence.

But it was too late. Two people were present when he used the Soul Swallowing Gaze—Demon General Strongman and the Clear Shallows King. Since this was right next to the Clear Shallows Pavilion, they were the first ones to check on the commotion. Unfortunately, what greeted them was Zhao Wuji’s bloody corpse while Long Chen was standing next to him, unharmed.

He was one step too late. Long Chen had planned to burn the corpse to destroy all evidence, then he would flee the scene, but he had no choice now.

After seeing Zhao Wuji’s body, the Clear Shallows King’s pupils constricted. She knew that the commotion had been caused by a Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman, and it was something that belonged to the Red Ghost King. Since Zhao Wuji was the Red Ghost King’s disciple, he was the only one who could have possibly used it. But using it should have meant certain death for Long Chen. So why was Long Chen alive while Zhao Wuji was dead even after he used the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman?

To the Clear Shallows King, this was a little hard to believe. She knew exactly how destructive the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman was, and very few disciples of the younger generation would have been able to survive it. The Red Ghost King must have really liked Zhao Wuji if he had given him a Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman!

Long Chen’s position in the Clear Shallows King’s heart rose once more.

Most importantly, the Clear Shallows King had heard from Liu Yiyi a few hours ago that she had lost to him too.

This meant that Long Chen was an extraordinary prodigy, and he surely had many secrets. The Clear Shallows King needed talent more than anything, especially dark horses like Long Chen.

Long Chen knew this too. Based on the fire in her eyes, he knew that he was safe, even though Demon General Strongman’s eyes had gone red when he saw Zhao Wuji’s body. Doge & Chacha's Thoughts

Heheh. Demon General Strongman can't do anything and Zhao Wuji is finally dead. Life is good.
