Chapter 2373 - 2374: Collision

Chapter 2373: Chapter 2374: Collision

Sun Tianming had just recovered somewhat from his body’s injuries when he saw the situation, and he couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

Under the moonlight from that spot, he saw a black dot rapidly approaching Lin Chen like a small meteorite, causing the air to explode and emitting terrifying auras as it fell.

"Let me handle this!"

Zheng He pulled Lin Chen behind him, his towering figure standing in front of Lin Chen, with his fiery red long hair floating.

"No need, I feel like I can defeat him."

For some reason, this emotion suddenly surfaced in Lin Chen’s heart. Looking at Lu Kang rushing downwards, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat confident.

This was very strange, knowing that in previous encounters with Lu Kang, Lin Chen had always faced perilous situations, yet now he felt a strong confidence that Lu Kang was not his opponent.

Where does this confidence come from? Lin Chen didn’t know either.

But he felt it was a natural thing, without anything peculiar about it.

Zheng He was slightly taken aback, then looked at Lin Chen, initially wanting to speak but swallowed his words, recalling the various strange things that had happened to Lin Chen earlier.

The current Lin Chen seemed to always be unexpected, like those previous anomalies, and those burly men were no exception.

After a moment of hesitation, Zheng He thought it over and retreated a step back, exposing Lin Chen.

However, he remained vigilant, his hand tightly gripping the sword’s hilt, not daring to relax for a moment. If Lin Chen was indeed unable to defeat Lu Kang, he would not be late to intervene again.

Lin Chen took a deep breath; in his hands originally holding two longswords, one was suddenly put away.

The sword he put away wasn’t the one he snatched from Lu Kang, but his own Tianyan Ancient Sword.

There was no reason for this; Lin Chen just suddenly felt that this sword should be more handy.

Thinking so, Lin Chen stepped forward.

"Ha!"

A low shout rose from Lin Chen’s mouth, and in his hand, the longsword trembled uncontrollably with the shout.

This wasn’t the sword technique that Lin Chen had been learning from Wang Hao; instead, it was another sword technique Lin Chen had never used before.

Lin Chen didn’t understand why he used this technique, but he just felt there was a voice in his mind telling him to do so, so he did it.

Sword strike.

On that sword, a phantom appeared, also holding a longsword, which bore some resemblance to the sword Lin Chen held.

It stood tall at several zhang, upright there, tilting the longsword, completely motionless.

Like a swordsman waiting for an enemy, very indifferent, not fearing the threat.

"Let’s see what tricks you have left!"

Lu Kang sneered. Despite the sight before him, his eyes held no shock, only curiosity; yet, who is Lu Kang, with his rich means, how could he be intimidated by the present Lin Chen?

"Great Heavenly Demon Palm!"

As Lu Kang quickly moved forward, he suddenly shouted. Within this shout, his hand suddenly spread out, forming a wide, thick palm.

From that palm’s heart, a powerful force surged forth.

This force extruded from Lu Kang’s palm, rushing forward, forming a giant palm imprint several zhangs large!

It surged towards Lin Chen, carrying a strong fighting intent, as if it was forcing the sword-wielding figure before Lin Chen to retreat directly.

Lin Chen wasn’t afraid. Though his face winced from the approaching palm imprint, which stirred up a Wind Blade that stung fiercely, he felt no other emotions.

He simply took a deep breath. As he raised his hand, the giant figure similarly moved with Lin Chen’s action.

At this moment, Lin Chen’s mind was void of any emotional fluctuation, nor was there noise from beside him; his eyes contained only the sight of Lu Kang.

It was as if he entered a wondrous domain. In this state, Lin Chen felt an unending power surging forth within his heart, rapidly gathering at the giant’s longsword-bearing hand.

"Break!"

The palm imprint advanced towards Lin Chen, and within a mere instant, it was already upon him.

At this moment, Lin Chen finally shouted, and with the wave of sound, the real sword in Lin Chen’s hand swung down.

Simultaneously, the towering figure above also fell abruptly with Lin Chen’s sword swing.

That illusory longsword, as it swung downward, erupted with an incredibly dense power.

Under the influence of this power, even Lu Kang couldn’t help but be slightly taken aback, knowing that Lin Chen is a cultivator who defies conventional wisdom.

But now, seeing such an immense power burst from Lin Chen, Lu Kang’s heart was still slightly shocked.

"How could it be..."

Lu Kang said in astonishment, widening his eyes, with his heart rising with an unbelievable feeling.

How much time had passed since last time, Lin Chen’s cultivation speed might be a bit too fast!

Lu Kang took a deep breath, and his power continuously surged towards the palm imprint.

Having spent so many resources to recover himself, though now not entirely integrated, if he couldn’t compare to a Spirit Pill cultivator, it would be quite embarrassing.

After all, there were so many here witnessing the scene, and if word got back to the Sacred Sect, it would bring him shame.

"Die!"

Lu Kang burst out in rage, and the attacks between the two rapidly collided in mid-air. Following the impact, the power within Lu Kang surged.

The giant palm, upon colliding with the giant figure, began slowly interlocking; it handled the giant figure as if it were holding a toy.

Yet, the figure appeared formidable in strength but offered no resistance in this interaction; Lu Kang sensed no defiance occurring.

This startled Lu Kang while also inciting a degree of doubt.

But this doubt didn’t linger long before Lu Kang froze, as the giant figure gradually started to move. Though slow, like before, it continuously swung its phantom longsword downward.

And as it swung, Lu Kang’s attack, upon the light collision with this longsword, surprisingly dissipated rapidly! Those thick, ink-like dark fumes seemed to turn into its nourishment!
