Chapter 1664: Chapter 1661: Adult Python Dragon
Considering this, the usually cautious Long Ming decided to temporarily avoid the confrontation.
He swiftly pulled back, tracing a bizarre arc in the void as he retreated with incredible speed, mysteriously evading Li Chen’s attack.
Seeing Long Ming being forced back, Li Chen did not follow up with an attack, but suddenly changed direction and attacked the Great Elder on the left.
The Great Elder had previously witnessed Li Chen tear through Heavenly Blade Ancestor’s body with a single spear strike.
Facing Li Chen’s unstoppable spear, even the invincible Sect Leader had to temporarily avoid the edge.
Although he was a cultivator in the Mahayana Realm, there was still a significant gap between him and Heavenly Blade Ancestor and the Sect Leader.
Therefore, when facing Li Chen’s unmatched spear, he had to be extremely careful and alert.
Li Chen’s figure suddenly accelerated, the tip of his spear gleaming coldly, like a comet attacking the moon, striking at the Great Elder.
Just as the Great Elder’s nerves were on high alert, ready to respond with all his strength.
A strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Li Chen’s mouth.
Immediately, he did something that left everyone present dumbfounded.
When he was less than a hundred yards away from the Great Elder, Li Chen abruptly made a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree spin.
Moreover, during the spin, his figure not only did not slow down, but increased his speed to an unbelievable degree.
This time, his target was the Second Elder.
Li Chen’s speed was extremely fast, and even though the Second Elder was a master in the Mahayana Realm, he only managed to catch a fleeting shadow.
Furthermore, the Second Elder had no idea that Li Chen would suddenly change the direction of his spear and target him.
Thus, he was completely unprepared in this rushed moment.
Additionally, Li Chen’s speed was too fast, leaving him with no time to prepare.
"Rip!"
The irresistible spear forcefully tore through the void, directly piercing it like a bullet through tofu, destroying all of the Second Elder’s defensive measures with overwhelming might.
"Puff!"
The Chi Dragon Spear drilled a bloody hole through the Second Elder’s heart.
His eyes widened in shock, and the light in his pupils faded instantly.
Immediately, he spat out a mouthful of blood towards the sky, staining the heavens with a glaring red.
Li Chen’s arm jerked violently, and the Chi Dragon Divine Spear spread like Roc Spread Wings, slashing horizontally towards the sky.
"Crack!"
The condensed and unmatched spear light streaked through the sky like lightning.
The Second Elder’s body instantly turned into a shower of blood, splashing through the air.
All of this happened in a flash, no one expected that despite his young age, Li Chen’s talent was monstrously formidable, and even his combat experience left these ancient monsters who lived for tens of thousands of years in the dust.
The Great Elder now realized that Li Chen had been using the strategy of striking east to attack west.
In this sect, he shared the deepest bond with the Second Elder.
Now, seeing his junior brother die tragically at Li Chen’s hands.
The Great Elder immediately erupted in fury, his whole being like a frenzied beast, roaring hysterically.
"Damn it, I’ll kill you!"
The Great Elder roared in anger, charging at Li Chen like a cannonball in a parabolic trajectory.
Witnessing this scene, Li Chen’s eyes shifted, revealing a faint, elusive smile.
Then, he intentionally revealed a flaw to lure the Great Elder into attacking.
At this moment, the Great Elder was blinded by hatred, unaware that Li Chen was deliberately luring him deeper into the trap.
Thus, he recklessly dove in headfirst.
The Heavenly Blade Ancestor and Long Ming watched the scene clearly.
Long Ming shouted urgently, "Junior Brother, be careful!"
Unfortunately, his warning was a beat too late.
Li Chen wouldn’t let his prey, already within reach, slip away.
He pointed a finger through the air, tracing a circle of light that enveloped the Great Elder.
At this moment, the Great Elder realized he had fallen into Li Chen’s trap; panicked and flustered, he used all his strength, vainly attempting to break free from the light circle’s constraints.
However, the more he struggled against this circle of light, the tighter its grip became.
In just the blink of an eye, the space for him to maneuver was reduced to less than three yards.
If it continued to shrink, his fate would be no different from that of a lamb on the chopping block, at Li Chen’s mercy.
Realizing the situation, the Great Elder’s mind was completely unsettled, and he urgently called out to Long Ming for help.
"Sect Leader Brother!"
Seeing the Great Elder trapped, Long Ming’s expression instantly turned extremely somber.
This Li Chen was too monstrous, with a ceaseless array of techniques. Divine Dragon Sect had already lost the Second Elder and Third Elder.
If they also lost the Great Elder, relying solely on himself and the disembodied Heavenly Blade Ancestor, capturing Li Chen would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
With this in mind, Long Ming did not hesitate, shouting to the Heavenly Blade Ancestor.
"Brother Heavenly Blade, this child’s monstrous, let’s join forces and capture him!"
The Heavenly Blade Ancestor nodded, his eyes full of burning hatred.
Seeing the Heavenly Blade Ancestor agree, Long Ming summoned a snake-shaped long sword, with rings of purple light rippling around it, spreading wave-like in all directions.
"Divine Dragon, come forth!"
As Long Ming chanted, the snake-shaped long sword in his hand transformed into a Python Dragon.
At first, the Python Dragon was only three yards long.
But it quickly began to expand visibly at a rapid pace.
In just a few breaths, the Teng Snake had already expanded to a thousand yards in size.
Witnessing this spectacle, the disciples of Divine Dragon Sect were greatly shocked and bowed down to worship.
This Divine Dragon was their Divine Dragon Sect’s Mountain Guardian Beast!
Seeing this scene, Li Chen’s gaze suddenly focused intensely.
From his experience, this so-called Divine Dragon was merely a True Dragon Descendant— a hybrid breed between a True Dragon and a python, similar to a Jiao Long.
However, judging from the power it unleashed, this creature had lived for at least a hundred thousand years and belonged to a mature Python Dragon.
While the Jiao Long, starting from the day it hatched, would not live more than three to five thousand years.
The Dragon Clan possesses extraordinarily long lifespans, living for hundreds of thousands, even millions of years is common.
Within the Dragon Clan, the dividing line between youth and maturity is set at thirty-six thousand years.
Li Chen focused his sight and could release the Jiao Long, Taotie, and Red Tiger.
All three were Eighth-level Demon Beasts, but none could rival the mature Python Dragon before him.
However, three against one, even if unable to defeat it, they could delay it for some time.
Just grant him half a moment longer, and he could decisively kill the Great Elder.
Once that was achieved, he could secure victory ahead of schedule!
