Chapter 5308 Reclaiming One’s Confidence



With one sweep of his saber, Long Chen shocked everyone present, both friend and foe alike. They were still stunned as Long Chen shot toward Jiang Yiming.


Long Chen didn’t bother with words. Brimming with murderous intent, Evilmoon slashed directly at Jiang Yiming’s head.


Jiang Yiming was stunned by Long Chen's sudden appearance. He had been wondering where he had gone, but seeing him now attacking, he raised his jagged saber and roared, “You little coward, you’ve finally decided to show yourself?”


“Your mouth really is detestable, you traitorous bastard,” Long Chen snorted as black qi gushed out of Evilmoon.


BOOM!


The land shuddered when Evilmoon struck the jagged saber. With an explosive sound, Long Chen and Jiang Yiming were both knocked back.


“What?!”


Everyone was astounded once again. Long Chen, a mere Sage King, was able to fight evenly against Jiang Yiming, a four-vein Emperor.


Moreover, Jiang Yiming wasn’t just any four-vein Human Emperor—he had once been a peak genius of Tianyu City and was regarded as a future leader. His power was nearly on par with a six-vein Emperor.


Tianyu City’s disciples were thrilled. If Long Chen was this strong, perhaps there was still hope for their city after all.


Jiang Yiming, however, was left reeling, and his arm was numb from that single exchange. He had never encountered such raw power before. While Jiang Yiming was still in shock, his jagged saber split in two—it had been cleanly severed by Evilmoon. Seeing this, he retreated.


Long Chen swayed but made no move to chase Jiang Yiming. Instead, while everyone was distracted, he broke through the blockade and rushed to Chu He’s side.


“Senior, sorry for being late. Leave everything to me!” said Long Chen, placing a hand on Chu He’s back without waiting for a response.


The Earth Cauldron appeared above Chu He’s head, enveloping him in divine light. Chu He felt spatial energy wrap around him and, in an instant, he was transported to the city’s fortifications.


The experts of Tianyu City erupted in cheers. Chu He was their spiritual pillar—his survival meant their hope still stood.


“Young friend, I might be old, but I can still fight! Let us fight together and execute these traitors and monsters!” shouted Chu He. Even while covered in blood, he was still awe-inspiring.


Chu He was well aware of how dangerous the enemy was. There was no way Long Chen, a Sage King, could handle them alone. In his eyes, Long Chen’s youth made him prone to rash decisions, and Chu He feared that Long Chen would fall into their traps.


While Long Chen’s strength was admirable, he was still just a Sage King, and his rashness made Chu He nervous. Long Chen was Tianyu City’s hope now. If anything happened to him, they would have no hope of turning things around.


As a result, Chu He would rather use his remaining longevity to support Long Chen. That way, even in death, he could rest easy.


“Senior, don’t worry. I never act without confidence. I owe Tianyu City a debt, and if I don’t repay it, my conscience will gnaw at me. I will help Tianyu City eradicate the Stone Spirit race and the Gold Lion race!” declared Long Chen.


“Hahaha, big words! Are you going to kill us all on your own?” mocked Jiang Yiming.


Beside Jiang Yiming, a thirty-meter-tall stone giant wielding a golden hammer glared at Long Chen and shouted, “What arrogance!”


This expert of the Stone Spirit race was a seven-vein Emperor and the leader of the Stone Spirit race.


“Damn you. How dare you humiliate the great Gold Lion race? Today, you will die a miserable death,” snarled the Gold Lion race’s old lion that Long Chen had encountered. It was the only one capable of speaking their language.


However, this old lion was not their race leader. The true leader was a massive lion with a red-tufted mane, and it was also a seven-vein Emperor. Its eyes were locked onto Long Chen, looking like it wanted to eat him.


Despite their disdain for Long Chen, the two race leaders were cautious, positioning themselves strategically around him. It was clear they were more nervous than they appeared.


“My defeat last time nearly shattered my heart. Sorry, for Boss Long San’s future, I will use you all as offerings to reclaim my confidence,” said Long Chen, his gaze sweeping over his enemies.


With Evilmoon on his shoulder, Long Chen took half a step back, bending both of his knees and his back slightly. As whirlpools appeared beneath his feet, his aura rapidly surged, causing his black robes and hair to billow.


“Eight Star Battle Armor!”


Qi waves exploded from Long Chen as if a volcano had erupted beneath him. Astral winds tore at the heavens, blasting the surrounding experts with an overwhelming force. Even six-vein Emperors were forced back several steps.


Only the race leaders, though swaying slightly, held their ground. They couldn’t believe that a Sage King could be concealing such immense power.


Inside Long Chen’s dantian, his Spirit Root flame flickered as faint three-flower Eternal runes appeared. The power of his starry sea ignited, surging through his veins. The world itself seemed to tremble at Long Chen’s power. His black hair and robes whipped violently in the astral winds, making him look like a war god descended from the heavens. It was as if the world could only submit to him.


Tianyu City’s disciples couldn’t help quivering with excitement as they watched. In their eyes, Long Chen was an undefeatable battle god.


“Attack him together!” Jiang Yiming’s voice cracked with fear. Long Chen’s power far exceeded his expectations.


But before they could act, Evilmoon flashed through the air, and Jiang Yiming’s head flew into the sky.
