Chapter 6284 - A Narrow Escape

"Buzz" The Celestial Spear was drawn before Long Chen, yet as it approached him, it turned fierce, shaking violently as it thrust towards him with deadly intent. A chilling killing aura made Long Chen's hair stand on end, as if the spear had a will of its own. "Boom" With a loud shout, the Star Battle Body emerged, delivering a powerful punch. An explosive sound erupted, and Long Chen spat out a mouthful of blood, his entire arm battered and bloody. "Buzz" However, the spear only trembled slightly before once again striking towards Long Chen, its fierce killing intent making even his soul shudder. "Withdraw!" Long Chen's face changed dramatically; the spear's power was too strong for him to handle. He tried to channel the star sea within his dantian to retract it. But once the spear left the star sea, it was beyond his control, suddenly splitting into two, then four... endlessly dividing until it turned into sixty-four Celestial Spears, all shooting towards Long Chen. "I'm doomed!" Long Chen's face turned pale. The spears seemed determined to kill him unless they were shattered. "Six Gates Open, Stars Ignite!" Long Chen roared, not daring to hold back, channeling the power of the stars to the fullest, his fists frantically blocking the onslaught of spears. "Boom boom boom..." Long Chen used every bit of star power he had, as his life hung by a thread, not daring to be careless. He swung his fists, clashing against the spears until they were finally held back. However, before Long Chen could catch his breath, the spears vibrated again, merging into thirty-two. As they became thirty-two, their star power doubled, and Long Chen felt the pressure increase drastically. "Could it be..." Long Chen's face turned white. "Buzz" As expected, Long Chen's predictions were always precise. Several breaths later, the thirty-two spears merged into sixteen. "Boom boom boom..." The power of the spears surged again, doubling, as Long Chen frantically blocked, feeling his arms go numb, and his bones ache. "It's over, I'm in trouble!" Long Chen couldn't help but shout. "Buzz" Again, after several breaths, the sixteen spears became eight. "Puff" Long Chen desperately blocked, but blood spurted wildly as his defense faltered, and a spear pierced his shoulder. Blood splattered, turning his shoulder into a bloodied mess, the wound deep enough to expose bone. Long Chen grimaced in pain, roaring as he frantically blocked. "Buzz" At that moment, the spears merged again, with four spears emitting supreme divine power, darting through the void, striking at Long Chen. "Damn it, I refuse to believe I'll die by my own hand!" Long Chen cursed, his fists bloodied, the starlight flickering as he gritted his teeth to block. Yet at this moment, the Celestial Spears' power was enough to shatter the heavens, and despite Long Chen's efforts, he was continuously shaken, spitting blood. "Buzz" Worse still, the spears merged once more. "Boom" Under Long Chen's full defense, both his arms were instantly broken. He managed to block one spear, but another was already at his back. "Puff" The spear pierced through Long Chen's chest, the pride of his physical body penetrated in an instant, the excruciating pain almost causing him to pass out. "Whoosh" Suddenly, starlight trembled beneath Long Chen's feet. Facing the terrifying Celestial Spears, he stopped blocking directly. Long Chen had a hunch that the spears were a trial, meant to be subdued by his own strength. If he resorted to tricks, it might result in failure, possibly missing the opportunity forever. But Long Chen couldn't care anymore; continuing to fight meant losing his life. "Whoosh" Starlight trembled under his feet, and heavily injured, he retreated three steps, changing angles continuously to avoid their assault and buy time to catch his breath. Yet to Long Chen's surprise, no matter how he evaded, he couldn't shake off the spears. "Boom boom boom—puff!" Long Chen fought desperately, blocking three attacks, his bones on the brink of shattering, but ultimately failed to dodge as a spear struck his abdomen hard. That blow nearly split him in two, his internal organs shattered instantly, and in that moment, Long Chen was filled with despair. But then, the two spears merged in the void, forming a single spear that shone with starry light, illuminating the universe. As it formed, time seemed to stop, the laws of heaven ceased to function, and Long Chen was horrified to find himself immobilized, locked in place. "Buzz" The spear trembled, descending mercilessly. "Puff" The Thunder Spear pierced Long Chen's chest, transfixing his body. Long Chen's vision darkened, the world sinking into eternal darkness. In the endless darkness, Long Chen seemed to drift for eons, until a speck of light, like a firefly, appeared. Gradually, the fireflies multiplied, illuminating the dark world, waking Long Chen with endless starlight. The starlight converged, slowly forming a Star Giant. As the giant appeared, Long Chen noticed a large star vortex on both its head and feet. The star vortices channeled star power into the giant's chest, forming a dense cluster of stars. As the star cluster formed, a sharp pain in Long Chen's chest brought him back to reality, the giant and star vortices disappearing. In their place was a fierce Celestial Spear, pressing down on him with the aura of death. It carried a wild and destructive force, relentless in its attempt to crush Long Chen's will. Yet, the sharp spear tip was blocked by a bone in Long Chen's chest. "It's the Supreme Bone!" Long Chen exclaimed. The intense pain emanated from the Supreme Bone. The sharp spear tip was firmly lodged against it; without the Supreme Bone, Long Chen would have perished. The small Supreme Bone was holding back the Celestial Spear, while the power of dragon blood, seven-colored supreme blood, and purple blood converged within it. The Supreme Bone blocked the Celestial Spear, and the power of the three bloods tried to devour the star power on the spear, but to no avail. "Crack crack crack..." At that moment, the Supreme Bone reached its limit. If it shattered, Long Chen would turn to dust instantly. Long Chen's mind recalled the scene he had just witnessed. Gritting his teeth, he formed a seal with his hands. "Buzz" A sea of stars appeared above Long Chen's head, while beneath him, another sea of stars emerged. The sea above was the celestial phenomenon, while the one below was the projection of his dantian star sea. "Merge for me" Long Chen shouted, and the two seas began to rotate, one clockwise, the other counterclockwise. As they rotated, two star vortices appeared, channeling star power from Long Chen's head and feet to his chest. "Buzz" The Supreme Bone, empowered by the two star seas, began to emit starry light. To Long Chen's delight, the Celestial Spear slowly merged into the Supreme Bone, eventually transforming into a spear-shaped star symbol. "Whoosh" The myriad stars dispersed, and Long Chen lay on the ground like a dead dog, gasping for air. "I finally got my life back."
