  “Yan Mochen!”

  Seeing this many of them, Hu Guishan’s expression changed several times before he suddenly cast a special glance at Yan Mochen.

  Yan Mochen instantly understood Hu Guishan’s intention. He hesitated slightly, but after looking at the distant Long Chen, a ruthless light appeared in his eyes, and then he disappeared.

  The mass of ninth rank devil beasts charged forward. There were no longer any more devil beasts behind them. Suddenly, a huge earthen wall appeared. But those devil beasts instantly slammed their way through it.

  That huge earthen wall was as weak as paper in front of ninth rank devil beasts. There was no effect at all.

  “Has Yan Mochen gone crazy? He’s blocking all the ninth rank devil beasts on his own!”

  Everyone saw a figure rapidly retreating at the front. Yan Mochen was hastily forming hand seals, forming earthen walls one after another that were rapidly blown apart by the devil beasts.

  As a result, these devil beasts were drawn over to Yan Mochen and targeted him. Yan Mochen retreated as he repeatedly formed barriers.

  Killing intent exploded out of Long Chen. “Yan Mochen, if you dare to harm us, I, Long Chen, swear that whether you ascend to the heavens or flee to hell, I will still kill you!”

  Following Long Chen’s furious shout, Hua Shiyu and Wang Zhen’s expressions also changed. Yan Mochen was retreating straight toward Long Chen. He was clearly drawing the devil beasts over to him to exterminate the Dragonblood Legion.

  “Hehe, Long Chen, I’m helping you stall for time, but you treat me like this? Then fine, we can just handle our own sides.”

  Yan Mochen suddenly sneered and disappeared from the ground. A rune flowed across the earth, returning to the Hegemon Hall.

  Yan Mochen had used an earth evasion technique to escape. Those ninth rank devil beasts lost their target and roared. With furious roars, they charged right toward Long Chen’s channel.

  Because there were so many of them, a portion also scattered through the other channels. But the Dragonblood Legion was facing the main force, with almost half the ninth rank devil beasts coming to them.

  Long Chen’s side had thirty-five ninth rank devil beasts charging at them, while the neighboring Hua Shiyu was also unlucky. Sixteen of the devil beasts had gone to her side, and icy killing intent shone in her eyes.

  Of the remaining four channels, the closest channel guarded by Wang Zhen had to deal with nine of them. It was unknown whether it was because they were intimidated by the insect army, but those devil beasts preferred to spread to the other channels.

  Hu Guishan, Fan Song, and Que Xinyan charged to the front of their channels, doing their best to kill the ninth rank devil beasts. Behind them, Yan Mochen, Han Yunshan, Wei Changhai, and the other peak experts also attacked.

  These three factions had gathered practically all the peak experts from the four outer regions. Other than Yan Mochen, Han Yunshan, and Wei Changhai, there had also been two other rank five Celestials who had been recruited. Although they were not innate rank five Celestials, they were much stronger than rank four Celestials.

  These three factions possessed the highest number of peak experts, and they were facing less than thirty devil beasts in total, making it so they were under the least pressure.

  “Guo Ran, don’t keep holding back. Bring out your killing weapon, quick!” shouted Long Chen.

  Guo Ran clenched his teeth and took out a huge crossbow the size of a war chariot. Its body was dark red and covered in runes. As soon as it appeared, it smashed a hole in the ground. Guo Ran was unable to hold it on his own.

  He quickly took out a golden spear with a yuan spirit stone embedded in it and set it on the crossbow.

  Buzz.

  Guo Ran pulled the trigger. A golden light flew out at the ninth rank devil beasts.

  BOOM!

  The spear exploded once it reached the ninth rank devil beasts, its body transforming into sharp fragments that pierced through the nine rank devil beasts’ flesh. A rain of blood erupted.

  “A month’s work for just a bang…” Guo Ran’s heart was dripping blood. This was a new weapon he had just created. Only Long Chen had known about it, and he hadn’t even tried using it before.

  Those fragments were so sharp that even the flesh of ninth rank devil beasts was unable to resist it. However, such small fragments were also not able to kill ninth rank devil beasts with their huge bodies.

  But the power behind this explosion had caused the charging ninth rank devil beasts to slow down for a moment. That was exactly what Long Chen had wanted.

  “Raging Flame Prison!”

  Long Chen formed hand seals, and countless flame chains appeared in the air, enveloping all those ninth rank devil beasts. At the same time, a sacred light came from Long Chen’s face as he began to chant a scripture that resounded with heaven and earth. It was like gods were chanting along with him.

  Heaven and earth’s flame energy surged toward the flame chains. Long Chen also used all of Huo Long’s power to condense this flame prison. He made it as strong as possible.

  More chains continuously appeared. Back when he had used this move in the Eastern Wasteland, the flame chains had only been the width of an arm. But now they were already as thick as a person’s waist.

  As the chanting of the Nirvana Scripture filled the air, the chains continued to grow, and the flame energy also grew stronger.

  The ninth rank devil beasts crazily attacked the Raging Flame Prison. Intense rumbling sounded, but they were unable to shake the flame prison.

  “Huo Long, squeeze out all your power. Flame Prison Deathblow!”

  Long Chen ordered Huo Long not to hold back. His own spiritual yuan poured forth.

  The huge flame prison immediately trembled. The world seemed to lose all its sound, as if time had frozen.

  The flame prison suddenly shrank, compressing all the ninth rank devil beasts into a three-meter ball.

  Then the flame prison exploded. Long Chen’s hands also exploded, turning into lumps of flesh, and he vomited blood.

  Huo Long’s current power was too great, and after being amplified by the Nirvana Scripture, the flame energy had far surpassed what the magical art was able to bear. Thus, Long Chen received a heavy backlash.

  Fortunately, all the ninth rank devil beasts had been killed. However, Huo Long had also been heavily injured and would be unable to move for a short time.

  After killing all the ninth rank devil beasts, Long Chen looked back to see that Tang Wan-er and the others had already charged over to Hua Shiyu’s faction, helping her with the devil beasts.

  Long Chen took a deep breath and also rushed over. Hua Shiyu’s face was currently as pale as paper. She had previously used a forbidden technique to kill eight ninth rank devil beasts.

  That had caused her to suffer heavy internal injuries, but she clenched her teeth and continued to fight. The Heaven Female Alliance was taking huge casualties. These ninth rank devil beasts simply weren’t something they could handle.

  Tang Wan-er, Gu Yang, and an armored Guo Ran were each fighting against one ninth rank devil beast on their own. Li Qi and Song Mingyuan were circulating the earth’s energy to protect the Heaven Female Alliance’s people to avoid even greater casualties.

  Blood-colored light flashed. One of the two devil beasts that Hua Shiyu was fighting was killed with a slash from Long Chen’s saber.

  “Thank you.” Hua Shiyu’s eyes were slightly red. If it hadn’t been for the Dragonblood Legion, there might no longer be a Heaven Female Alliance.

  “Quickly kill them.”

  Long Chen had already charged over to the ninth rank devil beast that was forcing Song Mingyuan and Li Qi to repeatedly retreat.

  The two of them had already activated their Spirit Blood and were doing their best to protect everyone. But it still wasn’t enough. Seeing that their defenses were about to break, Long Chen hastily slashed his saber.

  Blood-colored light filled th
e sky and then disappeared. The Heaven Female Alliance’s disciples couldn’t help but be stunned.

  That huge ninth rank devil beast’s body slowly split apart. Through that crack, they saw a wild and domineering figure that was charging at another ninth rank devil beast.

  Long Chen found that although these devil beasts’ offensive power was extremely great, they had no intelligence. As long as someone was capable of blocking them from the front, a sneak attack from one of their blind spots was fatal. They could be killed in one blow.

  Long Chen killed three of them, while Hua Shiyu killed hers and went to assist Tang Wan-er. All the devil beasts were quickly handled.

  The battlefield descended into a deathly silence. Hua Shiyu looked over the Heaven Female Alliance. In just an instant, thousands of her sisters had died. Killing intent raged in her eyes.

  “I’m going to kill people. Do you want to come?” asked Long Chen.

  “Let’s go.” Hua Shiyu clenched her teeth.

  “All of you just stay here. Don’t move,” ordered Long Chen to the Dragonblood Legion. Walking side-by-side with Hua Shiyu, he looked toward the three factions. They were also icily staring back at them.

  Chapter 1072 Ruthlessly Slaughtering Heavenly Geniuses

  With his blood-colored saber resting on his shoulder, Long Chen walked over directly to Hu Guishan and the others with Hua Shiyu. His eyes were both calm.

  Those familiar with Long Chen knew that this calm represented that his killing intent had reached a peak. There was no longer any need for him to suppress it, because, he was about to kill people.

  “Yan Mochen, come out and face your death.” Long Chen’s killing intent caused space to twist around him. It was like the arrival of a death god.

  “Long Chen, do you think you can arrogantly kill my people? Do you think you have the qualifications?” sneered Hu Guishan.

  “I’m going to kill. Those who block me will die,” replied Long Chen icily. His footsteps didn’t stop. His aura was continuously rising.

  “Hahaha, then let’s see how you try to kill me!” laughed Fan Song.

  Hu Guishan, Fan Song, Que Xinyan, Yan Mochen, Wei Changhai, Han Yunshan, and the other two rank five Celestials all stood at the front. Eight powerful experts stared coldly at Long Chen and Hua Shiyu.

  “I’m about to start. Take care,” said Long Chen to Hua Shiyu. Suddenly, a four-colored divine ring emerged behind him, and four stars appeared in his eyes.

  “Green Dragon Battle Armor!” Scales covered Long Chen’s body, and his aura erupted like a volcano, causing heaven and earth to rumble and astral winds to rage.

  A blood-colored saber-image tore through the sky and slashed down at the eight of them.

  Hu Guishan and the others were startled. They had thought that with their absolute superiority, Long Chen and Hua Shiyu wouldn’t dare to fight them. The power difference was too great, and they thought the two of them were just putting on a show.

  But this attack from Long Chen had no mercy, no leeway. The killing intent within this attack could cause ghosts to sob and gods to weep. He was truly trying to kill them.

  “Flower Sea Buries the Heavens!”

  At the same time as Long Chen, Hua Shiyu also attacked. An endless sea of flower petals condensed into a huge ring.

  That ring began to rapidly spin, acting as a huge circular blade that tore through the void toward them.

  Hu Guishan’s body suddenly grew, and black hair covered him. His teeth became sharp, and he instantly transformed into a huge devil ape.

  No one had thought that Hu Guishan was a beast cultivator as he had never revealed this beast merging art before. He was now a six-meter devil ape, and he smashed a fist forward.

  At the same time, Fan Song attacked. His Blood Qi erupted, and punching with Hu Guishan, they blocked Hua Shiyu and Long Chen’s attacks.

  In their opinion, if too many of them fought, it would make them appear weaker. What they wanted was to force the two of them back in the fairest manner.

  BOOM! The four attacks crashed together.

  “What?!” Astral winds erupted, but that wasn’t what caused the shocked cry. The shocked cry had come from someone who suddenly noticed that a person carrying a saber had appeared right beside him.

  The person who cried out was Han Yunshan. He was arrogantly standing with his hands clasped behind his back, eagerly waiting to see how Long Chen was humiliated. He hadn’t thought that Long Chen would bypass Hu Guishan without anyone noticing him.

  “Ice Frost Shield-”

  Pfft!

  His ice shield had only just begun to appear when Long Chen’s saber reached his body. He was blown to bloody mist.

  When the astral winds finally faded, everyone just managed to see a blood-colored flash as Han Yunshan was killed.

  Seeing that, it felt like the world had become still. Han Yunshan, a generation’s heavenly genius, a rank five Celestial who had awakened the ability to merge with heaven and earth, someone with overflowing battle power, was killed in one blow by Long Chen.

  Furthermore, the power within Long Chen’s saber had also destroyed Han Yunshan’s soul. There was no chance of any revival for him.

  “Courting death!” Hu Guishan roared furiously and smashed a fist toward Long Chen. At the same time, Que Xinyan’s flame blade slashed over. But Long Chen ignored their attacks. As soon as he had killed Han Yunshan, he slashed his saber at a tricky angle toward a shocked Wei Changhai.

  Wei Changhai was horrified. The feeling of death instantly filled his heart. He didn’t even have the courage to block. Water Qi appeared around him, and he rapidly retreated.

  BANG!

  Just at this moment, Que Xinyan and Hu Guishan’s attacks arrived. But they didn’t reach Long Chen. They were blocked by a petal shield from Hua Shiyu.

  “No!” A miserable cry rang out. In the distance, Wei Changhai was entangled by a lightning dragon and unable to move. A blood-colored saber stabbed through his back and out his chest.

  “Die.” Berserk power exploded out of Blooddrinker, and Wei Changhai’s body was blown apart.

  Another rank five Celestial was killed!

  Long Chen put away Lei Long and vanished. Like a phantom, he rushed back toward Hu Guishan and the others.

  “This goddamn madman!” Hu Guishan was infuriated. He was sure Long Chen was a madman. He really did dare to kill people, and not just anyone. He was killing the top heavenly geniuses raised by the Xuantian Dao Sect. He had signed his own death sentence.

  “Long Chen, that’s about enough!” shouted Hua Shiyu.

  In the beginning, when she had said she would kill people with Long Chen, she had just been venting. She hadn’t really thought of killing anyone.

  But now after two people were killed, there were no signs of Long Chen’s stopping. Now she was a bit panicked.

  “If you’re afraid, you can go. You might be fine with your sisters dying for nothing, but my brothers can’t die for nothing.”

  Long Chen ignored Hua Shiyu. Because of helping out the Heaven Female Alliance, seven Dragonmark warriors had died.

  Long Chen didn’t regret that the Dragonblood Legion had gone to help the Heaven Female Alliance, nor did he blame them. Each member of the Dragonblood Legion was a hot-blooded man, and they definitely wouldn’t just watch as weak women were butchered in front of them. If they did, they wouldn’t be fit to be warriors of the Dragonblood Legion.

  But their deaths had been because of a certain idiot. That idiot would have to pay the price.

  Provoked by Long Chen’s words, Hua Shiyu clenched her teeth. Seeing that Long Chen had already attacked, her flower petals condensed into a spear that pierced toward Hu Guishan.

  BOOM!

  Hu Guishan blocked Hua Shiyu’s attack with a punch. But Hua Shiyu’s flower petals contained runes that possessed some kind of strange energy. He was knocked back.

  “Hua Shiyu, you’ve also gone mad! Do you want to die with him?!” roared Hu Guishan. />
  But Hua Shiyu ignored him. An unhealthy redness appeared on her beautiful face, and two runes suddenly lit up within her eyes.

  The flower petals suddenly seemed to come alive. They formed a huge dragon that attacked Hu Guishan. Despite her condition, Hua Shiyu had decided to use her forbidden technique once more.

  BOOM!!!

  Hu Guishan was forced back once again and coughed up blood. Hua Shiyu’s terrifying petal dragon was incredibly powerful. He was horrified, not expecting Hua Shiyu to be so powerful. She was clearly exhausted but still able to unleash such power.

  Seeing that Hu Guishan was unable to block the next attack, Fan Song suddenly took his place to block it. But although he managed to block it with a punch, blood dripped down his hand and he was also knocked back.

  With Fan Song’s assistance, Hu Guishan gained some breathing room. Working together, they managed to block Hua Shiyu. They couldn’t bother any longer about the others.

  At this time, Long Chen was fighting intensely against Que Xinyan, Yan Mochen, and the two rank five Celestials.

  Yan Mochen’s earth giant was destroyed in an instant by Long Chen, and he was no longer able to summon it for a moment. He could only rely on fleeing through the ground to avoid him.

  Long Chen forced back Que Xinyan’s flame blade and suddenly used his shoulder to receive a rank five Celestial’s sword.

  That sword pierced his shoulder, but just as that disciple was surprised by this, Long Chen’s saber slashed through his head.

  This was using an injury to exchange for a life. Long Chen was used to doing this. Although they were rank five Celestials, and although he had heavily injured himself by using the Raging Flame Prison at full power, just with his battle experience, he could easily crush them.

  Another heavenly genius was killed, leaving behind only Que Xinyan, Yan Mochen, and another rank five Celestial. They were all intimidated now.

  Just as they were hesitating over whether to continue fighting or run, Long Chen took advantage of that hesitation to raise Blooddrinker to the sky. He activated the twenty-seven divine runes in his acupuncture points.
