Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5118 Brahma Golden Body

Lu Fan’s moves and every thought were laid bare to Long Chen. After all, Long Chen’s ability to read facial expressions and body language far surpassed Lu Fan’s.

From birth, Lu Fan had been a heavenly genius, coddled by everyone around him and favored by the heavens. Long Chen had encountered many people like him.

Many experts risked their lives, cultivating with relentless effort, only to strive for what Lu Fan had already possessed from birth. Moreover, he would gain things they couldn’t acquire even with a lifetime of hard work.

Such an immense disparity bred a natural sense of superiority in Lu Fan. However, this often led to deficiencies in character and psychology.

That was because everything such people had wasn’t from their efforts. Their talent, bloodline, and special skills—all were gifts from their parents, while their resources, weapons, and cultivation techniques were bestowed by their clans.

Many envied their meteoric rise, but Long Chen saw it as a kind of sorrow. Some things could only be earned through personal struggle; only then did they truly belong to you. Sometimes, the process of achieving something was more valuable than the end result.

When one received many things without having to work for them, no matter how strong they were, they couldn’t make up for the flaws in their heart and mind. Such people often had extremely fragile hearts, sensitive to criticism and unable to handle failure. Thus, when Long Chen called Lu Fan the weakest of the eight sons, targeting the most fragile part of his heart, Lu Fan’s fury erupted, and he directly attacked Long Chen without thinking.

Long Chen had ample experience in this regard. Seeing Lu Fan’s twisted expression, Long Chen could easily tell that he was about to attack, so Long Chen prepared his hand.

The next moment, an explosive sound rang out as Long Chen’s palm connected with Lu Fan’s face. To Long Chen’s surprise, a golden divine light enveloped Lu Fan’s face, and this powerful barrier caused Long Chen’s hand to hurt.

However, the power behind Long Chen’s slap was shocking as well. Even though the divine light blocked a portion of his power, the remaining force sent Lu Fan flying.

“What a thick face!” Long Chen was stunned, staring at Lu Fan in disbelief. His slap was powerful enough to severely injure a three-vein Heaven Saint, but apart from a handprint bruise, there was no damage on Lu Fan’s face.

Combined with the taunt, the slap ignited Lu Fan’s rage and drove him to the brink of madness. Lu Fan roared, unleashing a berserk aura that twisted the very air with wild flames.

Seeing Lu Fan go berserk, Long Chen instantly regretted it. The Earth Cauldron had told him to stall, but what could he do? His mouth was faster than his brain.

Nevertheless, Long Chen had countless tricks up his sleeves. He extended a hand and beckoned to Lu Fan, taunting him. “Come, show me the power of the eight sons of Brahma! Go ahead and take out your weapon. I’ll see just how long you can last while I only use my fists.”

As Long Chen spoke, a sword materialized in Lu Fan’s hand, exuding an aura that sent shivers down Long Chen’s spine. He could sense a deadly threat emanating from it. However, before he could get a clear look at the sword, it vanished from Lu Fan’s grasp.

Lu Fan roared, “You foolish ant, if you won’t use a weapon, I won’t either! I’ll completely crush you!”

Lu Fan stamped on the air, and a pair of flame wings appeared on his back. He shot toward Long Chen with blinding speed. While Lu Fan’s aura surged quickly, he didn’t wait for it to peak. His foot slammed down toward Long Chen, creating a pressure so intense that the ground started to sink even before the attack landed.

Long Chen was startled. Lu Fan truly lived up to his reputation as one of the eight sons of Brahma. It was the first time Long Chen had encountered such a terrifying aura among experts of the same realm.

In response, Long Chen’s Blood Qi ignited, and he countered with a kick of his own.

BOOM!

A violent qi wave exploded upon impact, throwing Lu Fan and Long Chen backward. Long Chen felt a numbing sensation in his leg, as if he had just kicked a star.

“Brahma Golden Body!” Lu Fan roared, and he became covered in golden divine light, resembling a golden statue. His aura became sacred and divine, carrying a trace of Lord Brahma’s presence. It was as if a god had descended, causing heaven and earth to tremble and clouds to be blasted away.

Despite the distance between them, Lu Fan unleashed a claw. At that moment, an intense sensation of danger rose in Long Chen’s heart, and he instinctively dodged to the side.

A hand bizarrely appeared right where Long Chen had been, shattering the space around it. Countless fragments of spacetime sparkled like broken crystals.

As Long Chen evaded the sudden attack, the void collapsed, and Lu Fan materialized directly in front of him.

“Ant, have a taste of my true power!” Lu Fan snarled.

Lu Fan’s fist was already right next to Long Chen, so Long Chen hastily crossed his arms to block the incoming strike.

BOOM!

Long Chen crashed into the ground like a meteorite, and the surrounding earth was upheaved by the impact. Seeing the massive crater, the Earth Devils were taken aback by the sheer force of the attack.

Golden flames circulated around Lu Fan, whose eyes glinted like sharp blades. He sneered at the hole in the ground and said, “Trash like you is viewed as a tough opponent by the Brahma Pill Valley? Hmph, the youngest dean of the High Firmament Academy is nothing more than dogshit compared to me!”

There was no response from the hole, and the Earth Devils exchanged puzzled glances.

“Did he already die?” guessed one of them.

As if answering the question, the ground started to tremble. Cracks spread across the earth, and Long Chen’s voice roared out like a god’s cry. “As expected of Lord Brahma’s son. Now, I can fight freely. Scarlet Dragon Battle Armor!”

BOOM!

A thunderous dragon cry shook the heavens, causing the ground to explode and the dust to surge like a tsunami. The next moment, a blood-colored streak of lightning appeared in front of Lu Fan, and a foot stamped at his face.
