Chapter 5400 God Crown
Long Chen’s furious shout shook the heavens. Two stars swirled in his hands and flew out, manifesting twin rainbows.
Arcing through the air from the left and right, the twin rainbows honed in on Ye Linfeng, who instinctively tried to dodge. But to his surprise, he found that his faith energy had failed him—he was locked in place by these two flying rainbows. Such a phenomenon was something he had never experienced in this life.
“God Shield!” Ye Linfeng shouted, slamming his hands together to summon shields in his left and right hands.
BOOM!
The shields shattered, and Ye Linfeng staggered backward, grunting. Though he had managed to block Long Chen’s attack, a dull ache spread in the pit of his stomach. He was shocked to find that a trace of Long Chen’s astral energy had managed to penetrate his defense and hurt him.
In response, Ye Linfeng took a step forward, summoning layers of afterimages in the sky. He could no longer afford to hold back and started counterattacking.
“Have a taste of my attacks too!” Ye Linfeng shouted, specks of golden light illuminating his fist.
The void itself seemed to ripple and explode from the power of his strike, and it filled the air with a chilling pressure. When the ripple reached them, the spectators felt an icy wave settle over them.
This was Ye Linfeng’s first counterattack, a terrifying technique that forced them to admit that he was qualified to act wildly arrogant. The pressure of his strike alone was enough to shatter their confidence and crush their resolve, leaving them with only despair.
In response, Long Chen’s arms blurred as he moved, leaving trails of afterimages in the air. The stars on his hands swiftly converged.
“Three stars, Soul Chaser!”
A single star—larger than the previous two and bigger than an average man’s fist—shot out from Long Chen’s palm.
BOOM!
Ye Linfeng’s fist smashed into the star, and a heaven-shaking explosion rang out. The world flickered chaotically as if the end of days had come. Though Ye Linfeng shattered the star, he felt his Blood Qi churn violently, like his fist had been pierced by a needle. Just as he steadied himself, another star hurtled toward him.
“What?!” Ye Linfeng was startled, not having expected another star to appear behind the first. He crossed his arms in front of him.
BOOM!
He was blasted backward, only to find the third star waiting as he flew away.
BOOM!
The final star struck him squarely, engulfing him in a chaotic explosion. Onlookers gaped, stunned by the ferocity of Long Chen’s three successive attacks. Even someone as powerful as Ye Linfeng had to be severely injured—if not dead.
Long Chen didn’t wait for the dust to settle. Forming rapid hand seals, he summoned four astral pillars of light that pierced the heavens, locking down the space around Ye Linfeng.
“Four stars, Devil Prison!”
The pillars of light converged, exuding such terrifying pressure that made every expert watching feel a chill run down their backs. If they were crushed by those pillars of light, wouldn’t they be instantly obliterated?
“Divine Flame Ignition!”
Within the pillars, Ye Linfeng’s roar echoed as golden flames erupted around him. A shimmering golden crown appeared above his head, projecting a radiant domain that stopped the converging pillars in their tracks.
“What is that?!” Xiao Yue asked, staring in shock at Ye Linfeng’s golden crown.
The crown wasn’t a physical object, but its presence transformed Ye Linfeng’s aura entirely. The divine energy it radiated was terrifying, paralyzing everyone with a feeling of helplessness. It felt eerily similar to the reverence they experienced when kowtowing to the Wind God’s statue.
Tang Wan-er’s expression became grave. “That is a god’s crown. In this state, he becomes a true god and can wield the power gathered in his divine statues. In other words, he’s backed by the collective faith energy of countless followers, prepared by his two families.”
“Then doesn’t that make him unbeatable? How can anyone fight against such a force?” one of the Hidden Dragon warriors exclaimed, his voice laced with fear.
Tang Wan-er nodded grimly. “It’s true—this is basically cheating. He is a man-made god created through an endless supply of resources and manpower.”
“Then... can Brother Long Chen still win?” asked another warrior.
Before Tang Wan-er could respond, a deep rumbling sounded, making their hearts tighten.
Ye Linfeng’s domain continued to expand, and the four astral pillars locking him down started to falter.
BOOM!
The astral pillars finally reached their limit and shattered.
“An ant is still an ant. No matter how strong, an ant cannot defy a god,” Ye Linfeng’s voice thundered across the heavens and the earth, shaking the very world. At that moment, he seemed to command all the laws of existence.
Long Chen eyed the changes in the world, sensing the transformation in the energy of heaven and earth. When he heard Ye Linfeng’s arrogant proclamation, a contemptuous smile tugged at his mouth.
“A god’s power? You’re nothing but a counterfeit. Compared to Lord Brahma’s god energy, you are a speck of dust. A false god propped up by resources isn’t recognized by heaven and earth. You’re just playing pretend.”
Even though Long Chen could feel the oppressive force from Ye Linfeng’s god energy, he noticed its lack of harmony with the world. This so-called god energy didn’t resonate with heaven and earth, relying entirely on his Heavenly Fate Disk to siphon faith energy and forcefully amplify his power.
In other words, this fake shit-head might look grand, but he was simply standing atop a mountain of resources built by his two families.
Long Chen had wondered how there could be such a young god, but now, he knew.
Ye Linfeng’s face darkened, his eyes flashing with fury at being called a fake god.
“Your mouth is loathsome. You will pay a price for it,” Ye Linfeng spat, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished.
“Wan-er, look out!” shouted Long Chen.
The moment Ye Linfeng disappeared, a mix of shock and anger surged through Long Chen as he bolted toward Tang Wan-er and the others.
