Rise Of The Demon God

Chapter 1530 Free spirit

The White Tiger King had stopped attacking the way Long Chen wanted. Instead, he was using his physical strength now.

It was unclear if it was because he had noticed what Long Chen was capable of or something else, but it was still a huge problem.

According to Long Tian, a battle like this was disadvantageous to Long Chen, and it was better for him to avoid the battle. And what better way to stop an old man than to take his daughter hostage.

Even if he was the White Tiger King, he was still going to care about his daughter like any father would.

"I suppose it's the only option."

Long Chen also agreed. He held the sword firmly in his hand, planting his feet on the ground.

He shot straight to the White Tiger King. The White Tiger King was also ready. He expected Long Chen to attack straight.

Unfortunately for him, just when Long Chen's body was a few meters away from him, he used his footwork and the momentum to change his direction, moving past the White Tiger King.

He went straight to the Energy Prison that was holding Ling and Xun. He swung his Sword of Time to break the Prison so he could take Ling hostage.

Thud~

A bullish figure came crashing into him before his Sword could even touch the prison. The figure belonged to none other than the White Tiger King, who surprised even Long Chen with how fast he reacted.

Boom~

Long Chen's figure shot back uncontrollably, following the impact. He even felt as if some of his bones were broken by the powerful impact which came out of nowhere.

The sudden attack even made his Sword of Time fall out of his hands as his figure flew back like an uncontrollable bullet.

It all happened so fast that even Long Chen couldn't control his body. Before he even understood what had happened, he felt his body touch something behind him. His face turned pale, realizing what it was.

His body crashed on the black Statue that was standing right beside the entrance...

His body crashed into the statue with such force that even the statue couldn't stay intact. It broke into a thousand small pieces that Long Chen saw flying everywhere before his body crashed into the wall behind, creating a crater.

What he didn't want to happen was exactly what had happened, and he couldn't do anything about it. Instead, he was the reason the statue broke.

Even Long Tian's lips parted at the disaster. The White Tiger King didn't know what he had caused.

The White Tiger King glared at Long Chen, who was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed.

"He died so fast?" The King frowned, watching the unmoving Long Chen.

He also observed the broken pieces of the dark statue. "So much for powerful spirits hiding inside the statue. What a nonsensical story."

He couldn't see any strange time happening even after the statue had broken. It only made him smile at the childish lie that Long Chen had concocted.

Long Chen slowly opened his lifeless pitch black eyes. Ling and Xun sighed a breath of relief. Long Chen was safe.

However, at the same time, a bright light filled the surrounding area.

"Hmm? What's the bright light?"

As he was distracted by Long Chen, he noticed a bright light filling the entire place, as if there was a sun in this place.

He turned around, trying to find the source of the light.

His face turned solemn as soon as he realized the source of the light. The light wasn't coming from Ling's ring that could detect spirits and their strength.

"Father..." Ling blankly stared at her ring, which was shining so bright like it never did before. "A Spirit... Which can make the ring shine so bright... Just how much strength would it have?"

The ring kept getting brighter and brighter before; ultimately, the gem on the ring shattered, unable to bear the spirit aura.

Even Long Tian felt that immense aura. And it was coming from none other than...

He grimaced, looking at Long Chen. "This shouldn't be possible."

A powerful dark aura spread with Long Chen at the center of it.

"Haha... hahahaha... Hahahahaha!"

Long Chen started laughing like a maniac. There was relief in that laughter, but there was also anger hidden inside it.

The mighty aura coming from Long Chen was nothing like before. In fact, it was even a thousand times stronger than his peak aura before.

Long Chen slid his thumb across his lips, wiping the blood trail.

"Long Chen....?" Long Tian appeared before Long Chen. "Are you...?"

"Long Chen...? So that's the name." Long Chen spoke. His voice appeared to be the same as before in essence, but there was also a significant difference. The voice was much more lifeless and dark now.

"You aren't Long Chen, are you? Where is he?!"

Long Chen smiled in response as his body started rising in the air. "He is inside me, and he'll be there for quite some time. Just because he's the reason I'm free, I haven't tried to destroy his soul."

"I don't forget favors," he added. "And while we're on the topic of favors..."

He gazed at the second statue.

He raised his right hand, waving it casually to form a circle in the air using his Dark Origin Energy of the purest quality.

A Dark Portal appeared between the invisible circle Long Chen formed.

He inserted both his hands inside the dark portal, and when he pulled out his hands, there were two dark Gauntlets around each of his hands.

"This is much better."

He stepped closer to the other statue. "Lucky, isn't it. I'm the one freed first, and I'll make sure you never get free."

He placed his hand on the second statue, making it disappear. It was unclear where the second statue went, but Long Tian had an idea. The Statue was sent inside the Ancestral Ring on Long Chen's finger to keep him away from people's reach so no one could free it.

"How ironic." Long Chen sighed. "The one who trapped me is now so weak that he's hiding inside a human. Pitiful. If I want, I can return the favor and seal him in the statue as well for an eternity, but I won't. I'm not a bastard like him."

"Who are you?! An Evil Spirit that took over his body?!" The White Tiger King roaringly asked.

It was evident that this person wasn't Long Chen.

"And you... You seem to be the one that hurt the human who saved me?" Long Chen smirked. "A weak beast. You're not worth my time, so I'll give you a quick death."
