Chapter 478 : A Supreme Opportunity
“Haha… That quasi-emperor’s coffin? What good stuff is that!”Su Chen sneered.
Soon after, he pointed at the void. An unparalleled divine light bloomed from his fingertip, transforming into billions of rays that enveloped Long Aotian from all directions.
“Today, 1, Su Chen, will give you a supreme opportunity that surpasses the knowledge of the world! 1 hope that you can appreciate this chance well and not let me down.”
As soon as he said this, the white-haired elder from the Long family frowned slightly and looked at Su Chen puzzledly. He reflexively wanted to stop Su Chen’s actions. However, after carefully sensing it, he immediately halted.
He could feel that Su Chen’s divine light carried no killing intent, but rather a trace of goodwill. If nothing unexpected happened, this would indeed be a benefit, as Su Chen had claimed. But what exactly this benefit was, only Long Aotian and Su Chen knew.
Buzz…
As the divine light entered Long Aotian’s body, he instantly fell into a daze. After a full fifteen minutes, he slowly regained awareness, waking up with disbelief flashing in his eyes.
He looked at Su Chen incredulously and murmured, “This… How is this possible? This is…the World-Transcending Sword…”
Before he could finish speaking, Su Chen turned his finger into a palm and slapped down at Long Aotian. This action was too sudden. The onlookers were still curious to know what treasure Su Chen had taken out to win over Long Aotian and the Long family elder. They could not fathom what could make the Long family’s prodigy look so shocked.
Long Aotian was the number one prodigy of the Long family, no, the entire Southern Region! He had seen all kinds of treasures. Ordinary things could not elicit such an expression from him. However, before the spectators could witness what Su Chen held, he had killed Long Aotian – the Southern Region’s most outstanding talent.
What was going on? Everyone was very puzzled.
Long Aotian’s strength was not weak. But that was all. Compared to true unparalleled prodigies like Su Chen, the difference was as vast as the heavens. Furthermore, Su Chen had just made a move, carrying a hint of a sneak attack within it. Hence, within a short period, almost no one reacted.
When they finally reacted, all they could see was that Long Aotian, the number one prodigy of the Long family, had turned into a pool of crimson blood. It was mixed with pieces of shattered bones and brain matter, spraying in all directions like tofu.
His blood dyed the clothes of the creatures standing beside him red instantly.
In the Southern Region, the most outstanding prodigy of this era, Long Aotian, fell.
Even Ye Ruxue couldn’t help but deeply glance at Su Chen’s back.
In the previous life, Long Aotian was the newly appointed World-Transcending Sword Master, with unparalleled prestige. Even the prodigies and powerful beings awakened from ancient times would show respect to Long Aotian. Moreover, at that time, Long Aotian became the young master of the myriad races, regarded as their backbone.
However, in this life, he easily fell into Su Chen’s hands, outside the inheritance ground of the World-Transcending Sword Master. If this news spread, who would believe it? Even if the World-Transcending Sword Master were to be reborn, witnessing this scene would probably leave him dumbfounded. This was the next World-Transcending Sword Master carefully selected by him!
“Human Su Chen! You really have guts!” The white-haired elder of the Long family was completely enraged at the scene before him.magic
His eyes were bloodshot, and his white hair stood on end.
The entire world was stirred at this moment. The sky within tens of thousands of miles suddenly darkened, as if brewing an infinite storm.
When the saint king got angry, corpses lay for ten thousand miles! Even the powerful beings in the Great Saint Realm began to tremble at this moment. Everyone retreated, afraid of provoking the old man.
“The thing you just passed to Long Aotian, is it the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master?” A saint king who was not afraid stepped forward staring at Su Chen and asking sternly.
Before Long Aotian died, he didn’t finish his words, but he mentioned the word “World-Transcending.” Thinking back to Su Chen’s actions at that moment, killing someone to keep it secret, it was hard not to make people speculate.
Logically, letting Long Aotian finish his words would have many benefits for Su Chen. After all, turning one World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance into two would reduce the pressure and situation he would face next.
However, the final result was that Su Chen gave away an opportunity and then killed the other party. Many people were completely puzzled and could only think that Su Chen had become arrogant. He believed that he could single-handedly confront the powerful beings present at the critical moment. Otherwise, there was no way to explain why Su Chen killed Long Aotian at a crucial moment.
This not only aroused the anger of the Long family’s Saint King Realm powerhouse but also pushed himself into the abyss. Faced with so many powerful beings, even a peak-stage Saint King Realm powerhouse had to carefully consider it.
“Attack!”
However, the Long family elder had no time to consider so much at this moment. Long Aotian’s death was a huge blow to him.
How many years had passed since their Long family had such a hard-won prodigy? Even… this prodigy was somewhat related to the legendary World-Transcending Sword Master in some mysterious way.
When the Chaotic Sea Star region emerged, countless forces believed that the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master belonged to Long Aotian since the Long family had never had such a stunning prodigy!
But now, it was all gone. The inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master not only failed to be snatched away, but Long Aotian also died. The entire future of the Long family was essentially obliterated by Su Chen’s light slap. How could he endure this?
Originally, the Long family could have become the strongest existence among the myriad races, produced a future World-Transcending Sword Master, and soared to great heights because of Long Aotian.
But now, everything was irretrievable.
Su Chen’s light slap not only took Long Aotian’s life but also obliterated the future of the Long family! That was the hope of him becoming a Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouse!
