Chapter 681: Alright, you can get lost

In its dragon transformation, Long Huang was blown away, skin torn and flesh exposed.

Yet because it was in dragon transformation, its defense rose greatly, and under the Law Armor the injuries were not severe.

"Impossible, I won't believe it!"

Jiang Chen, still completely unscathed, his very presence provoked Long Huang.

Long Huang, as if maddened, charged at Jiang Chen, brandishing a Giant Axe.

The Giant Axe was wrapped in Entangling Law; merely holding it shattered space, its power was immeasurable.

The moment the Giant Axe appeared, Long Huang's aura surged violently, as if reaching another realm.

Jiang Chen was shocked; Long Huang was no longer the same as before.

A strong sense of danger brewed in his heart, his soul kept issuing warnings. In this state, Long Huang was unbeatable.

Jiang Chen's soul stirred, and three consecutive God‑slaying Thunders erupted in the air, exploding. Purple light filled the sky, a sea of thunder rose, obscuring vision.

As the God‑slaying Thunder was released, his soul moved, activating Antares's Dragon Scale. Long Huang burst out of the thunder sea, bloodied all over, exuding scorched‑earth aura.

But at that moment Jiang Chen's trace was already lost; his eyes could not find him, and the soul lock that had just been set also vanished.

Two seconds later Long Huang realized Jiang Chen had fled, and it roared in fury, "Come out, if you've got the guts, don't run!"

"Come out! I'll chop you to pieces!"

Long Huang raged like a lunatic, swinging the Giant Axe wildly in the void, carving terrifying fissures in the air.

The Demon Emperor watched Jiang Chen leave with his own eyes, then saw Long Huang's madness and contempt, and said, "What an idiot. If Jiang Chen hadn't left, you'd be the one to die."

"So wielding Long Huang's war axe makes you great, huh? Even a thousand or ten thousand of those axes would be useless before it."

The Demon Emperor averted his gaze, unwilling to watch Long Huang any longer; he held the weak‑brained fool in utter contempt.

He lounged lazily on the Demon Emperor's throne, his eyes complex, murmuring to himself, "How should I deal with Jiang Chen from now on?"

"This guy can't be killed, yet he can't just surrender either."

"If he doesn't surrender and reaches Half‑step Super God, he'll probably plunge straight into the Abyss. Can I stop that?"

"What a headache. How could the Human Race produce such a guy?"

"So annoying, so annoying."

At this moment the Demon Emperor, lacking his former wind, seemed like an ordinary person, worrying over something.

Antares looked at Jiang Chen, who had appeared not far away, and asked, "Had enough fun?"

Jiang Chen replied excitedly, "Hmm, had enough."

"What's making you so happy?" Antares seemed puzzled; clearly they had been forced to retreat, so why the joy?

Jiang Chen had nothing to hide from Antares, "Do you remember the talent I awakened at Third Transcendence?"

"I remember, Comprehensive Rebirth, right? It's a rather perverse talent—a Rebirth chance once per minute. Disgusting!" Antares couldn't help but complain, while also thinking how great the talent was for himself.

Jiang Chen said, "I discovered another use: when it triggers Rebirth, the soul is reborn as well."

Boom!

Antares's head slammed onto the ground, creating a huge crater; the flowing lights in the sky instantly turned chaotic, exploding like fireworks.

Jiang Chen asked oddly, "Was all that really necessary?"

Antares's eyes were filled with disbelief; he forced himself to swallow, "You say this talent can also rebirth the soul? Really? Could you be mistaken?"

Jiang Chen answered with absolute certainty, "No mistake."

He used the Soul‑Splitting Technique, extracting a strand of soul to command Law, bearing the Law's backlash.

Without affecting his own foundation, he could split off up to five strands. At that moment Jiang Chen was about to leave, but Long Huang's attack was so fierce that it instantly activated the Comprehensive Rebirth talent.

Jiang Chen was astonished to find that not only had he avoided death, his Skill cooldowns recovered, the Undead Legion was reborn, and his soul also gained new life.

That means he could again split off five soul strands and continue using God‑slaying Thunder.

With this discovery, how could Jiang Chen not be excited?

He gained a whole new understanding of his talent—it was truly overwhelming. Antares glared at Jiang Chen, muttering, "Perverse, so perverse. How could such a talent exist?"

Jiang Chen asked oddly, "In the outside world, countless strong ones exist; is there really no such talent?"

Antares tossed his massive head, "Never heard of it. Talents involving the soul are rare, and their effects aren't usually that strong."

"A talent that can restore the soul? I've never heard of that." Even Antares hadn't heard of it; Jiang Chen realized his talent might truly be remarkable.

Antares suddenly adopted a serious tone, "From now on, never tell anyone you have this talent; it's dangerous."

As he spoke, the air grew suddenly viscous, and the atmosphere changed instantly.

Jiang Chen was also affected, whispering, "What danger?"

Antares said, "Some evil methods can steal a person's talent." Jiang Chen felt a chill of dread; such methods actually existed. Indeed, the outside world is full of countless strong beings, anything is possible. Their own world was just a small island in the sea; the outside world is dangerous, anything can happen.

Jiang Chen calmed down from his excitement, reminding himself not to be careless.

This world is far from as simple as he thought....

Jiang Chen said, "I understand, I won't tell anyone." Antares hummed, "Also, the Ancient Thunder Tower is just an external object. You can't rely on it too much. Moreover, with your current strength you still can't unleash its full power, let alone control the God‑slaying Fortress."

Jiang Chen accepted humbly, knowing he still had a long way to go.

"Thank you!" Jiang Chen expressed sincere gratitude.

Antares hummed, "No need, just say fewer words to me in the future."

"No problem." Jiang Chen said with a smile, agreeing first; whether he could actually do it was another matter.

Jiang Chen was truly grateful to Antares; if not for Antares's Dragon Fin, he might still have been in danger.

The Giant Axe that Long Huang finally produced was terrifying.

"Antares, Long Huang finally produced a Giant Axe…" Antares said, "I know, it's a Divine Level weapon; wielding it, Long Huang can approach the Super God tier infinitely. You're no match."

Jiang Chen asked oddly, "A Divine Level weapon—only a Super God can wield that, right?"

"His axe has special properties, and it serves more than one purpose." "Anyway, be careful in the future; unless you reach Divine Level combat power yourself, just dodge as far as you can when you see that axe."

Jiang Chen was secretly a bit surprised; even Antares said that, so it can't be false.

The grading of equipment also serves a convergent purpose.

Above Legendary level is Mythological Class, and above that is Super Divine Level. Super Divine Level weapons have only appeared in legends, and at least do not exist in Human Race history.

Jiang Chen's eyes showed contemplation, "Could the Demon Emperor also have a Super Divine Level weapon?"

"That's right." Antares did not deny, speaking plainly. Jiang Chen continued, "Then what the Righteous God said— even if I reach Super Divine Level I still can't eradicate the Abyss Dragon Race— is that related to this weapon?"

Antares looked at Jiang Chen, chuckled, "Did you guess it?"

Hearing that, Jiang Chen already had an answer.

He answered honestly, "Half and half, bold speculation, careful verification, you know."

Antares smiled, "Indeed it is related to this weapon."

Jiang Chen muttered, "It seems this weapon not only lets them approach Super Divine Level without limit, but also can wield power beyond Super Divine Level."

"…and they are not beings of this world; could this weapon also summon other strong ones to come?"

"You can get lost!" Antares, half‑asleep, whispered, then roared.
