Chapter 5472 A Quick Battle

BOOM!

Two immense forces erupted simultaneously as spheres of dragon blood runes collided.

A black sphere and a red sphere of light pressed against each other, shaking the entire martial stage. The sudden explosive power shocked the experts watching. They felt like they had been struck by a hammer in the pit of their stomachs, causing them to almost spit out blood.

They couldn’t help being shocked. While Mo Yang’s strength was well-known, none had anticipated that Long Chen’s power would rival it.

The two spheres of light expanded rapidly, splitting the martial stage into two distinct domains—one black and one red. These domains clashed fiercely, yet neither was able to overpower the other.

“Impossible! He’s only a human! How can he use dragon blood power at this level?!”

Most dragon race experts couldn’t believe their eyes. The dragon blood domain that Long Chen condensed was actually on par with Mo Yang’s.

As their domains clashed, their eyes were locked onto each other. Both of them felt a burning fighting spirit rise within them.

This kind of aura suppression was the simplest way to test out an opponent. It was what made an expert able to recognize a fellow expert in an instant.

This was no mere display of raw power; it was a profound exchange of soul and will. This clash wasn’t simply about dragon blood. It was a contest of spirit that was tempered through countless life-or-death battles. In this brief but intense exchange, both Long Chen and Mo Yang recognized the strength of the other.

“Using human power to ignite dragon blood and match me… You’re truly extraordinary,” said Mo Yang, his tone laced with admiration.

Long Chen replied calmly, “You’ve surprised me as well. My dragon blood’s origins are beyond imagination, yet it has no suppressive effect on you. That speaks to your strength.”

Long Chen had encountered many dragon experts, and his dragon blood power always suppressed them in one way or another. Yet Mo Yang remained unaffected, a fact that left Long Chen impressed.

“Your dragon blood’s pressure is truly terrifying,” Mo Yang admitted. “Despite being incredibly dilute—less than a hundredth of mine—you still match me. I’m curious… where does your dragon blood come from?”

“Sorry, but that’s a secret,” Long Chen said with a faint smile. “However, we’ve chatted enough. Your dragon blood far exceeds mine in quantity, and I can’t sustain this output for long. A drawn-out battle doesn’t favor me. Let’s end this quickly. Are you ready?”

As Long Chen spoke, he changed his stance, bending his knees with one foot forward and his back slightly arched. In an instant, his surging aura retracted, no longer spilling out uncontrollably.

The dragon experts were shocked once more. To be able to retract such wild dragon blood power at will required incredible control—something eighty percent of these heavenly geniuses here couldn’t do.

Yet what truly left them in awe was Long Chen’s candid acknowledgment of his weakness. He explicitly said that he could not maintain this level of dragon blood power output for long. Only someone with an extremely strong mental strength would dare to expose their own weakness, a trait that marked him as a true warrior.

With that, the dragon experts found their resentment toward Long Chen softening. They started to respect him.

“Come,” said Mo Yang, his sharp gaze blazing with battle hunger. “Let me experience the power of a true human genius.”

“Then I won’t hold back.”

In a flash, Long Chen vanished.

“What speed!”

BOOM!

Long Chen’s figure reappeared directly before Mo Yang, prompting him to counter with a punch. Yet just as swiftly, Long Chen disappeared again.

“What?!” “A feint?!”

The dragon experts were stunned. Long Chen’s movement was like a phantom, ephemeral and elusive. Though Mo Yang managed to track him, Long Chen’s sudden disappearance caught even him off guard.

This time, Long Chen reappeared behind Mo Yang, space twisting in a rippling wave around him.

“What terrifying Blood Qi! He’s…!” “One move to decide victory?!”

The crowd gasped. Long Chen’s first move hadn’t been a simple faint but a calculated move. He actually saved the power of the attack midway and unleashed it along with this second attack. What seemed like two moves merged into one, and the force shook the entire martial stage.

“Black Dragon Binding!” Mo Yang shouted as he formed a series of hand seals.

Countless black dragon chains flew out of his hand, wrapping around Long Chen.

This was one of Mo Yang’s original divine abilities, and it could be used in offense and defense. Composed of his innate runes, the black dragon chains were both tough and flexible. Once bound, even a Devil Emperor divine weapon would have great difficulty breaking free of it.

Seeing Mo Yang summon over a thousand of these chains in an instant, Mo Ying and the other heavenly geniuses of the black dragon race gasped. Even Mo Ying, a half-step Dragon Emperor, could only condense over two hundred of these chains at once.

Even two hundred dragon rune chains were enough to give Mo Ying the confidence to face a Dragon Emperor divine weapon barehanded. Yet Mo Yang had conjured over a thousand of them. If Long Chen were bound by so many chains, it would unquestionably spell his defeat.

Mo Ying hadn’t expected Mo Yang to instantly reveal one of his trump cards. She had assumed that against a formidable opponent, he would seize the opportunity to temper himself through battle.

But Mo Yang’s reaction made one thing clear—he wasn’t underestimating Long Chen in the slightest. His only focus was to emerge victorious, and he wasn’t holding back.

The dragon rune chains formed an enormous heavenly net, sealing the space around Long Chen entirely. In an instant, he was like a bird trapped in a cage. Mo Ying and the others couldn’t help but sigh.

“It’s over…”

BOOM!

However, just as the cage closed in, Long Chen’s body exploded in a sudden burst of power.

“What?! Another feint?!” Startled cries rang out.

Everyone was stunned, including Mo Yang. In an instant, his Heavenly Fate Disk trembled, and the dragon rune chains recoiled instantly, weaving themselves into a colossal three-hundred-meter-wide shield before him.

“He switched to defense?”

Mo Ying and the others were surprised. They didn’t know why Mo Yang would react this way.

“Cloud Dragon Immolation Claw!”

At that moment, Long Chen reappeared. From his divine ring emerged a massive blood-colored dragon claw, and it descended upon Mo Yang’s shield with apocalyptic might.
