“The Azure Dragon’s Battle Halberd?”

Indeed, Long Chen had some expectation of this item. However, at the moment, he was still a galaxy away from being qualified to compete for the legendary divine weapon.

Although the battle halberd was a good stuff, and Long Chen liked it too, he couldn’t use it temporarily. He had no choice but to put it away.

After they stayed there and took a rest for a while, the noon was arriving soon.

When the time came, Long Chen followed others to the big yard that they saw before.

The weather was gloomy and thundery to the utmost. It became so desolate and sombre between the heaven and earth, even in the afternoon .

“Let’s go to the Cave of Life and Death.”

Under the lead of Dongfang Xuanxiao, the members of outside families marched towards the Cave of Life and Death.

Long Chen was hanging with Gu Batian’s group and almost becoming a Purple Faction member.

Liu Yuan was the deacon of Green Faction, yet he got dumped by Chu Tianxiong, which extremely upsetted him. At that moment, he could only count on Long Chen’s final performance. If something bad happened to Long Chen, Liu Yuan would possibly be the next tragedy.

Liu Lan was also well aware of that. It was mainly her fault to break up with Chu Tianxiong’s family. She was guilty about that.

However, she saw that Long Chen was acting so casual, without any nervousness.

“How exactly is his true capability?” Liu Lan felt a bit headache.

Even with so many people around, Long Chen could spot whoever he wanted. At the moment, Chu Yunxi and Jin Sheng’en and so on were gathering together and whispering, while Yin Mengyao came to Long Chen’s side.

Except for the Green Faction, the Purple Faction, the Gold Faction and the Silver Faction, all the seniors of other outside families were just watching them for fun for this time.

Feeling that some people’s rage were being thrown onto his face, Long Chen had easily figured out that it was definitely Chu Yunxi and Jin Sheng’en.

These two guys were tricked by Long Chen once in the Qi Tian Road. In the combat at the Cave of Life and Death, they might reach a final resolution.

“Brother Chu, are you sure about that?” Jin Sheng’en asked.

“After he reached the peak of Human Dan Realm, I defeated him once. He was completely vulnerable. Now he entered the Earth Dan Realm and became more powerful, but still he will die for sure under my Profound Grade Advance Martial Technique.”

Chu Yunxi spoke with confidence.

Jin Sheng’en nodded and said: “We have two combats in total. You still have one more powerful rival, Gu Cheng. But Gu Cheng was poisoned before, you can defeat him as long as you perform normally!”

Chu Yunxi nodded and said: “Brother Jin, now you only have one powerful rival left, which is Yin Mengyao. It seems that you have a great possibility of getting into the inner faction!”

Jin Sheng’en nodded and spoke with confidence: “Yin Mengyao isn’t an ordinary person. She has achieved advance martial technique, Obliterating Ocean Seal, but she can never compete with me, unless she has another Profound Grade Advance Physique Martial Technique that I’m not capable of. Brother Chu, just hold on and fight for it, and then we will become the two disciples of Lord Xuanxiao in the end!”

“Lord Xuanxiao is absolutely the best and most powerful figure under the Heaven River Realm.” Chu Yunxi’s eyes were filled with admiration.

Soon afterwards, Long Chen’s group arrived a valley on the top of the mountain. After their arrival, the yin energy around aggravated even more. The nearby land became more desolated, making it difficult for even the toughest plant to grow.

“What a large valley!” Gu Cheng lifted up his head, deeply frowning his forehead.

In the air there was a rotten smell.

“The Caves of Life and Death are on the mountain wall on both sides of the valley. This is a natural battlefield where we can not only fight, but also watch the combats.”

Gu Batian explained.

Soon, Long Chen saw some caves of small sizes.

“In the Caves of Life and Death there are all sorts of toxic beasts. You can also see the Abyssal Poison Scorpion and the Dismal Serpent Spirit here as well, which you have met before. But Lord Xuanxiao might not choose a too difficult environment, I think.”

Soon afterwards, Dongfang Xuanxiao, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped, turned around and said: “Well, I’ll stop here now. The first group, Jin Sheng’en versus Liu Gui! The battlefield will be the Everglade in the Cave of Life and Death.”

Hearing that his rival was Jin Sheng’en, Liu Gui somewhat changed his face.

“It’s fine, if you can’t beat him, you can just surrender to him. I will be watching you here, and I won’t allow him to hurt you!” Gu Batian patted Liu Gui’s shoulder and laughed.

“Besides, the Everglade isn’t too bad anyway. You should be fine as long as you are aware of the toxic crocodiles under the marsh.”

Gu Batian explained to Liu Gui while following Xuanxiao into the first Cave of Life and Death.

It was a huge cave of 100 square meters. Within less than 20 meters of walking, they were suddenly enlightened. A giant hemispherical space appeared.

Walking to the front, Long Chen discovered a founderous marsh under the hemispherical space, which was full of rotten smell. Numerous bubbles of different sizes were blasting on the surface of this marsh.

“Battling on this Everglade requires to use true Qi to control one’s body and to keep oneself from falling. Such a combat is indeed a bit tricky. I might sink into the bottom of marsh if I get distracted even for a little. I assume that some toxic beasts are also hiding under the marsh.”

Long Chen said to himself in secret while looking from the edge of marsh.

At the edge, all people deployed in a line. At the moment, Dongfang Xuanxiao spoke at the front: “The first combat of the first group, now begins! According to the rules, there are only two ways to determine the winners and the losers. First, you surrender. Second, you lose your combat power and lose your consciousness.”

There was a special and resolute power in Dongfang Xuanxiao’s voice, making others difficult to resist him.

“Jin Sheng’en, Liu Gui, go ahead.”

Under his order, Jin Sheng’en showed a hearty smile, his toe tip slightly touching the ground and flying to the marsh. He used his toe tip to touched the mud very gently, and his pose looked extremely dashing, which won the applause from the audiences.

“What the hell.” Long Chen reviled in the dark.

At the moment, Jin Sheng’en looked at the Dragon Faction, joining his hands together: “Mr. Liu, after you.”

On the surface he was asking Liu Gui to start the combat, but in fact he was provoking Long Chen.

However, Liu Gui wasn’t a coward either. The selection held by the inner faction was vital, abd who didn’t want to give it a try? Therefore, he reached the marsh in the same way without saying a word, staring at Jin Sheng’en coldly.

“Let’s begin.”

Though his rival was known to be the legendary first genius of the outside families, Liu Gui wasn’t afraid of him. After all, he was also a talent who had reached the Earth Dan Realm, which was more or less the same as Jin Sheng’en.

“Gilding Physique?” Seeing the vaguely floating, light golden and wave-shape radiance on Jin Sheng’en’s body, Long Chen somewhat changed his face.

“They are both Profound Grade Advance Physiquess. Is the Thunder Flame Physique or Gliding Physique more powerful?”

The combat between Jin Sheng’en and Liu Gui began soon.

Liu Gui’s combat power was quite amazing, proving that he deserved the title of genius. However, Jin Sheng’en was better. With his Gliding Physique, he hit Liu Gui and made him fall into the marsh, basically without casting too many martial techniques.

When Liu Gui crawled out from the marsh, Jin Sheng’en’s hands have already clutched his neck. If he made any moves, his neck might be broken straightly by Jin Sheng’en.

“I surrender.”

Finding that he could never compete with Jin Sheng’en no matter how hard he tried, Liu Gui could only give in to him dejectedly.

“You’re tactful.” Jin Sheng’en smiled, looked at Long Chen’s side with pride, and then returned to the Gold Faction’s team in a stylish manner.

“Gliding Physique, what a doughty technique, I…”

Seeing such situation, Yin Mengyao was a bit concerned. She mastered the Profound Grade Advance Battle Halberd, so did Jin Sheng’en. However, she didn’t grasp the Profound Grade Advance Physique Martial Technique, while Jin Sheng’en did.

Her odds to win weren’t big.

Long Chen also saw how powerful Jin Sheng’en’s Gliding Physique was. Even he himself wasn’t sure about defeating Jin Sheng’en without getting hurt.

“The first round, Jin Sheng’en wins. Next, Yin Mengyao and Liu Qiong.”

Liu Qiong was the guy who had been slapped by Long Chen for looking down at him. At the moment, his face was still carrying a palm print, giving a hilarious look.

“What are you laughing at?!” The senior of the Gold Faction, Jin Luan yelled in anger.

He was the most awe-inspiring senior for this time. Three talens in the Gold Faction all entered the finals at the Cave of Life and Death. With Jin Sheng’en, he felt certain about getting at least one Gold Faction member into the inner faction.

Soon enough, Yin Mengyao and Liu Qiong began the combat. Without no doubt, Yin Mengyao casted the Obliterating Ocean Seal, just as the last fight, and vanquished her rival easily.

“Well, now you and Jin Sheng’en must fight for one quota to get into the inner faction.” Long Chen smiled to her.

“I’m no rival to Jin Sheng’en. Long Chen, I need to rely on you for Xiaolang’s matter.” Yin Mengyao said to him abruptly.

Long Chen paused for a bit and remained silent.

At the moment, the first round of the first group was finished. Liu Qiong and Liu Gui were out, Jin Sheng’en and Yin Mengyao were in. Then the first combat of the second group began.

As Dongfang Xuanxiao was the person to arrange the grouping, Long Chen had no idea who his rival would be.

In fact, even his rival wasn’t Chu Yunxi, if they both won this round, they would fight each other in the end.

“The first combat of the second group, let’s welcome Jiang Liu and Gu Cheng!”

Long Chen shuddered. It meant that he would be the rival of Chu Yunxi in the first combat.

In the meantime, Chu Yunxi happened to look at him as well. In Chu Yunxi’s eyes, Long Chen still saw madness and malignity.

“Long Chen, you’re dead.” Chu Yunxi was moving his lips without making a sound.

As long as he could attack him fast enough, he could finish Long Chen even before he surrenders. After all, Dongfang Xuanxiao didn’t make it clear that no rivals could be killed in such life and death combat.

Long Chen didn’t give a damn about him at all. Turning around, he saw that Liu Lan was staring at him in a trance, her eyes brimming with concern and worry.

“Hey, if I defeat him, can you allow me to touch your big rabbits?” (Note: it’s a symbolic joke among the guys to indicate girls’ big boobs)

Long Chen moved his head towards Liu Lan and leered at her.
