Background

Long Chen was drawn by Long Yun's system as Tang Chen, the previous-generation Clear Sky Douluo and one of the continent's three Limit Douluo. Because the name “Tang Chen” was sensitive, Long Yun renamed him Long Chen and began calling him Old Chen. 179 180

He immediately accepted Long Yun as his Young Master, guarded him during the absorption of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone, and sealed the room with Soul Power to prevent outside interference. 180

Long Yun treats him as a consecrated elder of the Divine Palace and, later, of Spirit Hall. Although Long Chen possesses the Clear Sky Hammer, Long Yun publicly states that he has no connection to the Clear Sky Sect beyond hostility. 234

Appearance

Upon his summoning, Long Chen appears as a tall, powerfully built middle-aged man with a stern, weathered presence. His resemblance to the real Tang Chen is striking. 179 255

• More than two meters tall, with an exceptionally muscular build 255
• Blood-red robe and cape 179 255
• Long hair and a demonic mark on his forehead 179
• Carries a sinister, bloody aura even without releasing Soul Power 255
• Resembles Tang Chen by roughly seventy to eighty percent in appearance, while also sharing his martial soul and near-identical Soul Ring configuration 255

Personality

Long Chen is quiet, disciplined, and unwaveringly loyal to Long Yun. He addresses him as “Young Master,” obeys orders without hesitation, and prioritizes his safety even when presented with rare opportunities to battle powerful opponents. 180 197 200

He is cold and domineering toward enemies. When confronting the Slaughter King, he dismisses the surrounding experts as unworthy of his attention and openly demands that Tang San be surrendered to Long Yun. 197

Despite his restraint, Long Chen enjoys testing himself against powerful opponents. He is excited by evenly matched combat, eager to challenge formidable defenses, and willing to use dangerous techniques when necessary. 200 296 310

Abilities & Skills

Rank 99 Limit Douluo

Long Chen is a Rank 99 Limit Douluo, placing him among the strongest Soul Masters below godhood. His released Soul Rings consist of two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red ring. 198 234

• Overwhelmed the Slaughter King with a single hammer strike, leaving him half-dead. 199
• Killed three Titled Douluo of Slaughter City within a few breaths. 199
• Injured Level 96 Chen Xin with one blow and later shattered the Seven Kill Sword during their battle. 232 235
• Defeated Limit Douluo Dai Yi at White Tiger Pass and took his Soul Bones after the battle. 299 302

Clear Sky Hammer

Long Chen's martial soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, a pitch-black giant hammer surrounded by lightning and destructive power. It weighs over ten thousand jin, yet he wields it one-handed. 198

• Delivers overwhelming close-range strikes capable of destroying city walls, shattering defenses, and creating deep craters. 198 202 231
• Can expand the hammer to the size of a small hill when attacking fortifications. 297
• His hammer strikes are powerful enough to break through high-level Titled Douluo defenses and force weaker opponents into retreat. 232 299

Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer

A self-created Clear Sky Hammer technique that links consecutive hammer strikes together, with each blow stacking upon the power of the last. 202

• Used against Slaughter City's Great Enshrinement in a prolonged Limit Douluo battle. 202
• Generates increasingly destructive force as the sequence continues. 202
• Requires sustained momentum; interruptions or a decisive counterattack can prevent further stacking.

Heaven Shaking Strike

Long Chen's Ninth Soul Skill, used as one of his strongest attacks. 205

• Clashed with the Great Enshrinement's ultimate skill, producing a shockwave comparable to a Level 98 Super Douluo's full-force attack. 205
• The collision destroyed roughly half of Slaughter City's Inner City and severely injured both combatants. 205

Ring Detonation

A forbidden Clear Sky Sect technique that detonates Soul Rings to gain a temporary surge of power. 263 281

• Detonating his first five rings allowed him to temporarily contend with Tang Chen's Asura Demon Sword. 263
• Detonating all nine rings raised his combat power by nearly five to six times, allowing him to face Tang Chen's god-empowered state without immediately falling behind. 281
• Later detonated his first four rings against the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger to prevent it from using its Rejuvenation ability. 310
• The backlash is severe: detonating all nine rings nearly killed him, requiring a Resurrection Silver Cigar to preserve his life. 281
• He cannot use Ring Detonation repeatedly while recovering; doing so too soon would endanger his life. 296

Relationships

• Long Yun — His Young Master. Long Chen was renamed by Long Yun, serves as his guard, and follows his orders in battle. 180 197

• Bibi Dong — Spirit Hall ally. She fought beside Long Chen's faction during the conflict with Slaughter City and the continental war. 200 255
• Tang Chen — The genuine former Clear Sky Sect master whose appearance, martial soul, and Soul Rings closely resemble Long Chen's. They fought as evenly matched Limit Douluo until Tang Chen used Asura God power. 255 260 263
• Chen Xin — Opponent during the destruction of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Long Chen injured him, shattered his Seven Kill Sword, and captured him alive. 232 235
• Dai Yi — Limit Douluo opponent at White Tiger Pass. Long Chen defeated and killed him during the Spirit Hall Empire's assault. 299 302
