Chapter 1382 - 1382: Hunt
The time in the space of the old man was so slow that one second in the outside world was a thousand years in that space. So Long Chen was sure that thousands of years had already passed there by now.
He believed his family must already be very strong by now. Possibly even stronger than him. But he was also worried. What if the old man kicked out his family, thinking Long Chen ran away without telling him?
In that case, his family could still be weak and even in danger. He didn't want to spend a single second more than he had to. It didn't matter how many worlds he had to destroy. If it got him home faster, he didn't care, especially now when all this killing was common for him.
Unfortunately, even though he wanted to find a way back, he couldn't. He needed to find a world with life for that, and he couldn't.
Despite traveling through multiple galaxies, he didn't find a single world with life.
Despite that, his killing intent was getting stronger. It was already so strong that it was spreading everywhere by now.
"Is there no planet left in this world that might have life or something even close to life? Come on!"
He brought a red fruit out of his storage ring and started eating as he was getting hungry in this search.
After eating to the fullest, he again focused on his search.
Two more months had passed. Long Chen had almost lost hope of finding a way back when he saw something.
His eyes lit up as he saw a green planet that had an atmosphere surrounding him.
"That place... It must have life! It also has a Barrier for protection! It doesn't matter, though! I've been hungry for a way back for so long! Even this Barrier can't stop me!" He exclaimed as he increased his speed.
He soon reached the world. The world was slightly smaller than the first world, which he had destroyed, but unlike that world, this world had a golden Barrier. It looked like a barrier that was made by a cultivator.
The world appeared to be slightly advanced in terms of cultivation, unlike the first world. Even amongst the mortal worlds, it looked like a superior world that was close to the peak in terms of strength.
Despite seeing all these signs of a strong world, Long Chen only had a smile on his face. He was more pleased that he had a way back. He didn't care about how strong the people were. All he needed was people there!
As for the barrier, it was a child's play for him.
He could easily teleport on the other side to avoid the barrier.
However, he had a better plan. He wasn't in the mood to avoid obstruction but simply break it.
At the same time, he wanted to use the energy of the barrier for himself. That was why he brought out his Sword of Time from his ancient ring, bringing it out after a long time. Since he wasn't in Heaven, he didn't matter. No one was going to see him.
He raised the Sword of Time high in the sky before bringing it slashing down.
Slash~
The barrier shattered like it was made of a thin glass sheet, and someone had tossed a big rock on it.
The crack kept developing. The barrier kept getting destroyed and the parts that were destroyed turned into pure energy, which was absorbed by the Sword in Long Chen's hands.
The Sword of Time absorbed the energy and transferred it inside his body. However, after how strong he had become recently, this little bit of energy didn't matter much to him. He didn't even feel much growth.
"Such a weak Barrier," he commented, not realizing that it wasn't the barrier that was weak but he who was strong.
The destruction of the barrier didn't affect Long Chen much, but it affected the world inside the barrier. The people in the world had grown up with the barrier.
It had become a part of their life but to see it being destroyed was surprising. Moreover, the sound of the barrier shattering was heard by all.
They all looked up, wondering what had happened. None of them knew that a demon had just entered the world.
Fortunately for that, the person who had arrived didn't need to destroy the entire world. He only needed a town or a city. However, even if he needed to destroy the world, he wouldn't have hesitated at this point.
He straight flew down at the first City he saw. He didn't care if it was a stronger city in this world or a weaker one. After four months of searching without aim, he just wanted to finish fast.
Long Chen landed on the ground in the middle of the city with a black Sword in his hand.
Everyone in the surrounding area looked at him. The man who had come from the sky right after the barrier was destroyed. They wondered if he had destroyed the barrier himself.
"Ah, young man. May I help you?" A kind old man walked towards Long Chen to talk to him so he could understand the situation better.
"Help me?" Long Chen raised his head. At this point, he didn't care if people were nice here or bad like his last world. He didn't care about anything. Throughout these four months, he was going crazy to kill someone to finally fill up the bottle.
"Sure. I actually needed help. It was so kind of you to offer," Long Chen smiled, looking back at the old man. "So please help me."
"What do you need? And where are you from?"
"I'm from far away. Even I'm not sure how far that would be from here. As for what I need? That's simple," Long Chen smiled in return. "I need your life. So please die?"
Swish~
As soon as Long Chen finished speaking, he swung his sword. The old man didn't even have time to react to his words before his head rolled on the ground.
"Ahh, I missed it so much! Finally, I don't have to hold back! Finally, I don't have to keep searching! Time to start the hunt!" He exclaimed, looking high in the sky.
He observed his surroundings. Seeing him commit a murder, everyone was running. Only the guards of the city ran towards Long Chen.
"Why are you running? I came all the way to meet you? And you run? Come back!" Long Chen smiled as his figure flickered. He appeared in front of a running man and stabbed his sword in the chest of the man before pulling it out.
.....
"Is it too late already....." Long Tian muttered, watching the actions of Long Chen.
