34: Chapter 35 Improving Your Realm: Not Just You

Chu Chen set Hua Xuan down from his arms.

With a cold gaze, he looked at Zhang Long, "Since that is the case, then I will come to take it myself."

The ten thousand demons immortal devouring sword floated in the air, emitting a terrifying demonic aura.

Seeing this, Zhang Long said disdainfully, "Do you think this is the downstream region?"

"The East Xuan Imperial Family is not some place where trash from a barren land like you can throw their weight around."

"Do you think that by relying on a secret treasure, you can run wild here?"

The six great Cave-Heavens behind Zhang Long frantically absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this place.

"Today, I will let you see what a Cave-Heaven Realm cultivator is!"

A cyan giant blade dozens of Zhang Long condensed behind Zhang Long and slashed down toward Chu Chen.

"Chu Chen, be careful!"

Hua Xuan looked at Chu Chen nervously and called out to warn him.

"Rest assured, he is not worthy of injuring me."

Chu Chen took a step forward, violent energy erupted from his body, and the ten thousand demons immortal devouring sword bloomed with incomparably sharp sword qi.

In an instant, a black sword light flashed across the entire Dongxuan Imperial City.

"Boom!"

The entire dragon vein was slashed open, creating a massive chasm.

Zhang Long's entire body was split in two, his appearance extremely terrifying as his body tore apart.

However, the next moment, the entire underground dragon vein trembled, and streams of golden energy sources floated out.

They flowed toward Zhang Long.

"This is the Qi of the Dragon Path, Chu Chen, stop him quickly!" Hua Xuan said anxiously.

Just as Chu Chen was about to strike, he saw Zhang Long's body slowly floating up.

The two halves of his body were actually healing at this moment.

Zhang Long's whole body radiated a dazzling golden light, and a golden giant dragon actually condensed behind him.

The golden giant dragon circled above the entire dragon vein, its massive body emitting powerful pressure.

Zhang Long's realm soared, stepping into the Cave-Heaven Ninth Stage!

Chu Chen looked at the golden giant dragon before him with a solemn gaze; he could feel a mysterious aura suppressing him.

Zhang Long opened his eyes, and powerful strength poured out from his body like a waterfall.

He shouted loudly, "Chu Chen, today I will have you dead!"

"Chu Chen, leave quickly!" Hua Xuan warned with a pale face.

"This is the Dragon Vein Qi condensed from the dragon vein, consolidating the fortune of an entire nation."

"Within this range, not only will Zhang Long's strength be enhanced, but any damage caused to him will heal within a short time."

Hua Xuan looked at Chu Chen with a face full of guilt, "If you hadn't come to save me, you wouldn't be facing this calamity."

"In a moment, I will try my best to hold him back, you find a way to escape."

After saying this.

A Cave-Heaven Second Stage realm burst forth from Hua Xuan's body!

She had already prepared herself to die in battle, "Perhaps all of this is fate; everything I have done over these years has fallen short."

"Rather than returning to that place to be a tool, it is better to die here."

However, a gentle and powerful arm rested on her shoulder.

"What, you still don't believe in me!"

Chu Chen said in a gentle voice, "You are my woman; I said today I will definitely take you out of here."

Chu Chen looked at Zhang Long, "Raising your realm? You are not the only one who can!"

In Hua Xuan's astonished gaze, Chu Chen's realm soared all the way from Mortal Shedding Seventh Stage to Cave-Heaven Seventh Stage.

Terrifying demonic energy radiated from Chu Chen, and the mark between his brows emitted a scarlet light.

Seeing this, Zhang Long laughed, "I didn't expect you to have so many secret techniques; after I kill you, they will all be mine."

Zhang Long was incomparably confident at this moment; even though Chu Chen had raised his realm to the Cave-Heaven Realm, he was not afraid in the slightest.

The Dragon Vein Qi consolidated the fortune of a nation; compared to this, a realm raised by secret techniques was not on the same level.

The next moment!

The golden giant dragon pounced toward Chu Chen.

"Mountain Shattering Finger!"

Chu Chen shouted, and a giant black finger shattered space, surrounded by lightning, pressing horizontally toward the golden giant dragon.

The moment the two made contact, a powerful energy storm, like blades, swept across the scene.

"Boom!"

The golden giant dragon was crushed and shattered.

"The golden giant dragon condensed from the Dragon Vein Qi has been scattered." Hua Xuan's eyes were full of amazement, and the look in her eyes as she gazed at Chu Chen had changed.

Could he have been hiding his strength? He was clearly a cultivator who walked out of the downstream region, yet he had easily scattered the fortune of an empire.

"Kid, your secret treasure is truly astonishing; to think you could scatter my Dragon Vein Qi. I will definitely kill you today; such a secret treasure should not fall into your hands."

Zhang Long said with a fanatical look in his eyes.

The entire Dragon Vein Qi condensed again, and subsequently, a golden holy sword formed in an instant.

With a loud shout, Zhang Long spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I am the current emperor of the East Xuan Empire, and I am willing to sacrifice half of the empire's fortune to kill this child."

As these words fell, the entire underground dragon vein began to shake violently, and a golden source orb floated out, entering the golden holy sword.

He did not hesitate to expend half of the Dragon Vein Qi accumulated by several generations of East Xuan Empire emperors to kill Chu Chen.

Zhang Long said with a crazed expression, "As long as I kill you, everything you have will be mine, including that woman, Hua Xuan."

"Chu Chen, you should just go; you have already done enough. You cannot withstand this sword strike."

"The national fortune accumulated over several generations is not something you can withstand right now."

Hua Xuan blocked in front of Chu Chen.

"I said, you foolish woman, why won't you believe in me!"

"There may be those in this world who can take my life, but it is definitely not him."

"Chaos Seed Golden Lotus!" Chu Chen said softly.

The next moment, the surrounding environment began to change, and a piece of chaotic void manifested.

A towering golden lotus took root in the chaotic void.

"Chaos Seed Golden Lotus, Chu Chen, are you really a person from the downstream region?!" Hua Xuan was greatly shocked.

She did not expect Chu Chen's constitution to be so heaven-defying; his awakened phenomenon was the Chaos Seed Golden Lotus, one of the most powerful constitutions throughout history.

Zhang Long immediately sensed something was wrong and controlled it to slash toward Chu Chen.

Looking at this terrifying golden holy sword, Chu Chen said calmly, "Perhaps before, I might not have been able to withstand this sword of yours."

"But now, this is my home field!"

"Swish!" A towering golden lotus blocked in front of the golden holy sword.

The moment they touched, streams of chaotic qi gushed out from within the golden lotus, instantly crushing the golden holy sword to pieces.

At the same time, Zhang Long also suffered heavy injuries, spitting out blood as his body cracked and he crashed heavily into the ground.

Chu Chen's phenomenon also dissipated, and Hua Xuan retrieved the demon sealing stone.

"I said I would take you out, and I will definitely be able to take you out."

Subsequently, he looked at Zhang Long, who was like a dead dog, "Originally, if you had committed suicide, I would have allowed your bloodline to continue."

"But now I have changed my mind. From this moment on, no one from the East Xuan Imperial Family will survive; the East Xuan Empire shall be destroyed."

The ten thousand soul banner turned into a ray of black light and flew into the firmament.

The next instant, a scarlet red light enveloped the entire East Xuan Imperial Family.

"Chu Chen, do you intend to massacre my East Xuan Imperial Family? Do you know what you are doing? If you do this, there will be no place for you in this world."

"My East Xuan Empire's ancestor is still alive; if you massacre the East Xuan Imperial Family, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, they will hunt you down and kill you."

"Threatening me!" Chu Chen smiled indifferently, "I fear threats the least; then let it start with you."

Just as Chu Chen was about to take action, an old voice came.

"Sigh! Little friend, be forgiving where you can; just let him go."
