Chapter 864: First Blood

Murong Chen didn't have time to think at all, so he hurriedly ran Zhou Tian and lit up the one hundred and sixty weapon patterns in the Blue Flame Battle Halberd. In an instant, a monstrous battle power erupted above the halberd.

"Battle ——"

The halberd rose into the air and headed towards Long Haotian's right arm.

"Boom ——"

An earth-shattering loud bang echoed above the cliff, and the entire mountain top began to tremble violently again. The boulders rolled down, the dust rose into the sky, and it was a devastated sight.

The hearts of the people on both sides mentioned their throats at the same time.

And when the smoke and dust cleared, people saw that the positions of Long Haotian and Murong Chen had been exchanged. At this moment, the two stood with their backs to each other, about a hundred steps apart.

"What happened, what just happened?"

"Is it His Highness who wins, or Long Haotian?"

"Nonsense, how could Long Haotian win?

............

On Murong Chen's side, the crowd was talking.

Just now, the battle between Murong Chen and Long Haotian happened in a moment of lightning, and at the same time, it also caused the smoke and dust to isolate the line of sight, making it impossible to see clearly for a while.

On the other side, Lan Xinyue, the second elder, and Luo Jiutian's hearts also raised their throats.

They naturally knew that Long Haotian had used the power of the sword spirit just now, but before the duel, Long Haotian's state was not very good, could he really support it?

"Hmm......"

Just when everyone was looking forward to the result, suddenly, Long Haotian's body leaned forward slightly, as if he was about to stand up.

"Haotian ——"

Lan Xinyue, Second Elder, and Luo Jiutian exclaimed.

At this moment, they noticed that the battle armor on Long Haotian's body was already full of holes. In particular, there was a huge crack about two feet long and three fingers wide on his breastplate, from which blood gushed out, staining the armor on his abdomen red.

The power of this armor was all seen by Lan Xinyue before leaving. Therefore, at this moment, in addition to worrying about Long Haotian, the second elder and Luo Jiutian had a deeper understanding of Murong Chen's strength.

"Hmph, a guy who can't help himself, he even wants to fight with His Highness empty-handed!"

Qiu Fuyue looked at Long Haotian's appearance, and a pair of wolf eyes flashed with bursts of green light. Then, he set his sights on the Elder Unable again, as if he was waiting for the old man to rush over and compete with him.

"Yes, who can match the strength of our Highness? This Long Haotian is simply a mantis arm as a car!"

"That's right, that's right, Your Highness is mighty, invincible in the world!"

............

The retainers and guards began to cheer for Murong Chen. To be honest, their hearts have been tightened all the time. After all, their identities are there, and if His Highness really makes a mistake, they are a serious crime! Now, they can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

But just when this breath was not completely released, in the distance, there was a sudden crisp sound of rustling.

When everyone looked up, their eyes couldn't help but freeze.

Just look at Murong Chen's battle halberd, there are already several cracks. Suddenly, a crisp sound of "sonorous" was heard, and the blue flame halberd was broken into two.

"Temple...... Your Highness ——"

Murong Yu and the others' hearts trembled.

On the one hand, they felt extremely shocked, what kind of power was contained in Long Haotian's right arm?

You must know that in order to create it back then, Murong Yan found the top refining masters in the Holy Flame Kingdom, and the resources used were also the top-notch.

Although the grade of this battle halberd was only eighth-order, ordinary tenth-order soldiers did not have the slightest advantage in front of it. The battle halberd was cast, and on the day Murong Yan delivered it to Murong Chen, he made a simple and crude attempt in front of everyone: directly use the war halberd to cut against other soldiers to test its power.

In the end, the nine ninth-order soldiers were directly destroyed by it, and one tenth-order soldier was cut out of the crack by it. And this eighth-order battle halberd was unscathed. At that time, it shocked the entire Holy Flame Kingdom for a time.

Over the years, Murong Chen has gone through countless battles with this halberd in his hand, many of which are duels with powerhouses in the Demon Tribulation Realm. But in the end, the halberd was intact. Previously, Long Haotian had cut seven scars on his head, which had already shocked people. Now that the halberd is broken, does people feel that all this is really a dream?

On the other hand, Murong Chen's love for this halberd needless to say, Long Haotian broke it, and what was waiting for Long Haotian would be Murong Chen's monstrous anger.

However, before the first wave of shock from Murong Yu and the others had subsided, their gazes froze again. And this time, everyone actually felt a burst of terror.

Just look at Murong Chen's golden battle armor, an extremely long crack appeared. From his helmet, it stretched through his entire body to his waist.

You must know that the manpower and material resources condensed on this eighth-order battle armor are almost more than ten times that of the Blue Flame Battle Halberd. Not to mention an opponent of the same realm, even if it was a powerhouse at the beginning of the Demon Tribulation Realm, it was extremely difficult to leave a trace on it, let alone leave such a huge scar.

Of course, if only the armor was damaged, the terror in everyone's hearts would not have reached such a high level. What really made people feel terrifying was that on Murong Chen's left eye, a scar about two fingers wide appeared.

This scar directly split Murong Chen's perfect sword eyebrows into two, and red blood gushed out from the wound and flowed through his blue left eye, as if it had been dyed with a strange color. Then it flowed down his cheeks and turned into a long stream of bloody tears.

Since his birth, he has experienced countless fierce battles. But Murong Chen's body has never had a single scar so far. In his opinion, how can a person who wants to become an emperor have a body with scars?

Moreover, the most fatal point is that if Long Haotian's blow is accurate even by half a point, Murong Chen's left eye will be in danger of being destroyed. The Yin Yang Demon Pupil is Murong Chen's most important and proudest important capital. Long Haotian's actions undoubtedly touched the most disobedient of all Murong Chen's scales!

I saw Murong Chen slowly raise his slightly trembling left hand and touch the scar on his eyebrows. When he saw the blood on his fingertips, everyone saw his body tremble violently.

"Long Haotian ——" A roar full of rage resounded throughout the night sky, "The first drop of blood, you let His Highness shed the first drop of blood, do you know what this will mean?"

Long Haotian had almost exhausted all his strength at this moment, even with the help of the sword spirit, but the loss of power from urging the Holy Weapon Pattern was too huge. He didn't turn around, but said lightly: "I don't know, I hope His Highness will teach you!"
