Chapter 5760: Violet Blood Heavenly Dao Fruit

A sword strike swept through the air like a violet bolt of lightning, slicing heaven and earth apart. Everything in its path was reduced to nothingness.

Luo Yanfeng and his comrades stood in stunned silence, their jaws dropping. They had never witnessed such a terrifying attack before.

As Long Chen sheathed the sword, he looked at the sliced void, light shining in his eyes.

“My dad was right. Sword cultivators truly are the strongest in the nine heavens. They can concentrate all their power into a single stroke.”

When Long Zhantian had passed his techniques to Long Chen, he had explained why Yue Zifeng's attacks were so sharp.

It was because he could instantaneously condense all his power into one strike, unleashing it in a perfectly controlled line of destruction. Such a technique could truly shatter the world.

Long Zhantian's insights had repeatedly emphasized control and compression. He had often cited sword cultivators as an example of the pinnacle of those principles.

This time, Long Chen had deliberately chosen a sword to incorporate some Sword Dao divine abilities into his attacks. It was all to deepen his understanding of compression and control.

His attack had been a violet streak splitting the world. Yet, despite its power, he sighed in disappointment.

“If it were Zifeng’s strike, its force wouldn’t be so scattered,” muttered Long Chen.

Even though Long Chen had done his best to control it, his Sword Qi still leaked the moment it was unleashed. Yue Zifeng, on the other hand, had always executed flawless lines of Sword Qi. Clearly, when it came to using the sword, Long Chen was a far cry from reaching Yue Zifeng’s level.

However, Long Chen never intended to become a sword cultivator. He was merely using the sword as a tool to refine his understanding of power compression.

Still, the attack Long Chen was disappointed in was actually viewed as a god-like attack for Luo Yanfeng and the others.

Luo Shenghui and his faction had been slain, yet no one felt the slightest sympathy. Instead, they were overjoyed. The tumor of the Luo family had finally been removed—it was the best possible result for the Luo family.

Now that most devils had been eliminated, Luo Yanfeng and the others eagerly approached Long Chen, their eyes burning with anticipation.

“Long Chen, that attack was incredible! Can you teach us?” asked Luo Yanfeng.

Long Chen jumped, thinking that something had happened to Luo Yanfeng and the others. But a quick scan showed them completely overwhelming their devil opponents.

“Could it be...?”

Long Chen quickly realized what had happened—other experts of the violet blood race had perished. The Heavenly Dao Tree had sensed their deaths and produced new fruits accordingly.

Moving through the ever-growing pile of Heavenly Dao Fruits beneath the tree, Long Chen was astounded. He had killed an unimaginable number of experts in the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm. In response, the Heavenly Dao Tree had diligently condensed fruits from each of them. Could the number of Heavenly Dao Fruits be in the billions? Trillions?

He decided to discard all the fruits with fewer than nine core veins, tossing them into the black soil. Only those with superior potential were worth keeping.

For now, he cast those stronger fruits aside like they were trash, saving space for the violet blood Heavenly Dao Fruits.

At that moment, another batch of fruits fell from the tree. Long Chen extended his divine sense and discovered a group of Bi family experts besieged by the devil race. Their numbers were rapidly dwindling.

“Impossible! How can the devil experts be so strong?! If the Luo family can hold out, why can't we?!” one of them roared in disbelief.

“Retreat! Break through their encirclement! Quickly!” another shouted, clutching a formation disc.

Long Chen noticed the disc's needle was pointed toward Luo Yanfeng and the others.

“They really are courting death!” exclaimed Long Chen.

He instantly understood their foolishness. They had drawn too much attention to themselves, attracting a horde of devil experts. Now, they were being slaughtered.

Suddenly, the void split open. A violet-crowned Divine Emperor of the Bi family appeared, clearly attempting to rescue the stranded disciples.

BOOM!

A bone spear shot through the void, striking the Bi family’s Elder down.

“Violet blood race, are you planning on breaking the rules?” An icy roar rang out.
