Rise of the Demon God-Chapter 1453 1453
The puppets that were blocking the path of Long Chen spread around, surrounding Long Chen.
Long Chen looked around, frowning. There were more beasts here than he thought, and all of them were more powerful than what he faced before.
However, even if he was able to defeat them all, he still had to face the Rainbow Phoenix, who probably wasn’t going to let them leave.
She was the enemy of Little Snow, and she was ultimately going to kill her, who was very weak at the moment. On the contrary, the chances of her leaving him alive weren’t high either.
”Do we really have to fight? We know you’re strong. Fighting you won’t be beneficial for me. Why don’t you just tell me what you want?” he asked, sighing.
”What I ask? Hand her over, and let me do a soul search on you so I can find what’s special about you. Either you do that, or you die fighting my puppets. The decision is yours.”
”So I have two choices. Surrender or die fighting?” Long Chen asked, smiling. “Why do I feel like I’ll take the third route?”
”Third route? You mean escaping? I’ve sealed this chamber completely. You can’t run. But you can try. Just know, I’m not known for my patience.”
Long Chen looked at the gaps between the statues, trying to formulate a plan. He had already tried teleporting away, but it wasn’t working.
”Sigh, I suppose fighting it is then.” He raised his hand, calling out the Sword of Time. At the same time, he sent Xun back since he didn’t want her to get hurt.
He even tried to send Little Snow back inside the Beast Mountain, but it didn’t work on her. She was resisting and not going back.
”That Sword… Where did you get it?” The Rainbow Phoenix asked Long Chen, glaring at the Sword. The Sword of Time attracted her attention instantly.
”Amusing. Even you know about the Sword? I thought beasts weren’t interested in human treasures?” Long Chen let out, smiling.
”Human Treasure?” the Rainbow Phoenix asked. “You naive man. You don’t even know what that is. How foolishly you call it a human Treasure!”
”I don’t even know if I should laugh at your stupidity or feel anguished that something so precious is in the hand of yours!”
”Precious treasures?”
”It doesn’t matter either. Even the strongest weapon in the world is nothing but a normal Sword in the hands of a human. You can’t even bring out its true form.”
”It’s true form? I still don’t understand what you’re talking about. I know it’s a Godly grade treasure. It’s indeed one of the strongest treasures in this universe, and I can certainly use it!”
”Godly grade Treasure? Is that what you call his Soul Weapon?”
”His Soul Weapon?” Long Chen asked, frowning. “It’s a soul weapon? A human can’t use a Soul weapon. A beast can’t use this sword. You’re wrong.”
”A human can’t use a Soul Weapon? Who says?” The Rainbow Phoenix rolled her eyes.
”Whatever, I’ve wasted enough time talking. I’ll give you one last choice since you have that Sword. Give the sword to me along with her. And I will allow you to leave without soul search. It’s the best offer I can give a human.”
”I’m sorry, but anything that involves me giving away my belongings isn’t a good offer to me,” Long Chen rejected the offer once again.
He had to face Tian Shen. In his eyes, he was a bigger threat than an Ancestor Beast. If he gave the sword and Little Snow away when faced with a beast, how could he face the guy? He needed the sword!
”You really don’t want to take my offer? I’m really disappointed.” The Rainbow Phoenix walked around her puppets and sat on the red throne, which was right beside Little Snow’s throne.
Xue Min also followed behind her and stood near the throne. She was wholly confused. She didn’t even know what a human was doing here.
How was he related to the Rainbow Phoenix? And why was she interested in the Sword. The Sword seemed mostly odd. However, she couldn’t disturb anyone with her questions. She remained silent to see what was going to happen.
”Go ahead. Tear him to shreds,” the Rainbow Phoenix commanded after she sat down comfortably.
All the stone beasts started closing in on Long Chen, who couldn’t Teleport.
Long Chen held the sword firmly with both his hands. He faced the statues with his Swiftness and teleportation last time, but now he didn’t have that, so he decided to go with strength instead.
”Little Snow, I’ll need to fight them. I can’t fight them with you sitting on my shoulder. Why don’t you go back temporarily and let me watch what’s happening?”
Little Snow silently looked at the statues coming towards them as she refused to budge from Long Chen’s shoulders.
Instead, she made a light noise in response.
”Look, It’s not the time to play around. You really need to get going and give me some room to fight,” Long Chen responded; however, he soon noticed something.
The stone statues that were coming towards them were blocked. And what blocked them were none other than the rest of the statues.
”Wait, are you helping me? I get it; half of them are owned by you, and the other half owned by her? I was wondering why you would make these? Don’t tell me they were like your version of chess?” Long Chen asked, rolling his eyes. Finally, he had a clue about the uses of such things.
The statues of the Rainbow Phoenix didn’t like their path being blocked, and they attacked in response. The statues of Little Snow also attacked in response, letting a battle ensue.
While all the statues were busy, Long Chen took the advantage of the situation and flew up. He started flying towards the stairs. He couldn’t touch the stairs, though. As soon as he reached the stairs, he hit a barrier that blocked him there as well.
Watching Long Chen’s futile effort to run away, the Rainbow Phoenix couldn’t help but smile.
”I told you, running isn’t an option. Even if she stopped you from the statues, that’s only temporary. Soon the statues will run out of the energy. I can supply them with more energy.”
”On the other hand, she can’t even do that. She is pathetically weak now. It’s only a matter of time before you’re caught. You can’t run.”
