  After the ancient family alliance was formed, the ancient families finally had a measure of safety and began to rapidly grow. After all, although they had declined, they had powerful foundations and inheritances. It was just that they didn’t reveal them for fear of drawing killers.

  In the end, after so many years of development, the ancient families grew stronger. Now some powerful families were finally revealed.

  The Sha family was one of those. Back when the ancient family alliance was first formed, they were an extremely unremarkable family.

  However, in the last few centuries, the effects of their powerful foundation were brought to bear. They actually possessed a divine item that maintained their karmic luck.

  Back then they had been extremely weak and focused entirely on growing unnoticed. Once they were powerful enough to be fearless, they began to show their power. All those powers that had once offended the Sha family had to pay miserable prices. Even five of the ancient families were destroyed by them.

  Those five ancient families had once bullied and kept the Sha family down. But now the Sha family had grown to the point that they were one of the top three ancient families in the Eastern Xuan Region.

  The other two were well established as the top powers, but the Sha family’s rise ruined their original board. It now became a three-way deadlock. It could be seen how powerful the Sha family had grown.

  Giving rise to an Empyrean in the form of Sha Guangyan in particular had set the Sha family’s rise in stone. They had been prepared to shake the Eastern Xuan Region.

  Unfortunately, Sha Guangyan, who had been supposed to rise to glory, had only just released a bit of light before he was beaten down from the heavens.

  This beating dumbfounded the Sha family. This beating had been given to them by Long Chen in the Spirit World. It was such a strong beating that the Sha family was seeing stars.

  Their peerless genius Sha Guangyan had been defeated, and extremely miserably at that. Not only had he lost to Long Chen, but Leng Yueyan had cut off one of his arms as well. It was practically an insult to the entire Sha family.

  When they heard that Long Chen had appeared in the Eastern Xuan City, the Sha family’s master had directly gone out with Sha Guangyan and their divine item to kill Long Chen, wiping away their humiliation.

  Yet, that plan had also been ruined by Long Chen. Three Empyreans had still been miserably defeated, and if it hadn’t been for the heavenly tribulation locking onto Long Chen in the end, the three of them would definitely have been killed.

  Most depressing of all, even when three experts on the same level as their family master had joined hands with divine items to seal Long Chen, he had still gotten away. That slap in the face was too resounding.

  The Sha family was located in an ancient city within the Eastern Xuan Region. The surroundings were filled with rising and falling mountains, and everything within tens of thousands of miles was the Sha family’s territory.

  On this day, a person appeared within the mountains and stealthily approached the city. It was Long Chen.

  Long Chen had two targets. One was Peng Wansheng and the other was Sha Guangyan. But after considering things, he had chosen Sha Guangyan.

  That was because the Sha family was located in a rather remote area. There weren’t any powerful forces nearby that could reinforce them. All the ancient families had their own territories.

  As for the ancient races, because they didn’t like mixing with the human race, they gathered in their own region, far away from them.

  The Sha family had to be rich and not just in money. Their heaven and earth divine spring had to contain a great amount of karmic luck, or they wouldn’t be able to give rise to an Empyrean.

  However, when he got closer to the Sha family’s city gates, Long Chen suddenly felt a slight sense of unease.

  “Something’s wrong.”

  Long Chen’s heart suddenly shook. He saw that the Sha family was bustling with people coming and going like everything was normal.

  It was because it was so natural that he felt something was off. During this period, he had been getting vengeance on many powers, and they had all locked their doors for fear of his arrival. For the Sha family to be acting normal meant that something was amiss.

  The longer he observed them, the more uneasy he felt.

  “Long Chen, leave. We’ve been caught in an ambush. I sense the auras of several divine items,” warned Evilmoon just as Long Chen was hesitating over whether he should advance or retreat.

  Hearing that, Long Chen hesitated no longer and rapidly retreated.

  “Hahaha, since you’ve come, don’t think about leaving!” Thunderous laughter rang out, and divine light exploded in the sky.

  A golden light shot toward Long Chen. Without even thinking about it, Long Chen slashed Evilmoon at it.

  Black light came from Evilmoon, and when the two lights collided, a powerful explosion blew Long Chen back. His arms tingled.

  “Long Chen, I’ve finally caught you! This time, I’ll make sure to kill you in the most painful way possible!” A chilling voice rang out.

  “Qi Yunao.”

  The golden light faded, and Long Chen finally managed to see who had attacked him. When Long Chen saw his opponent, his heart sank slightly.

  It was the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect’s Qi Yunao. His face was twisted with hatred and rancor, and he was holding the Violet Gold Soul Devouring Staff.

  “Long Chen, you were really brazen to attack the Pill Tower. Now let’s see where you can run,” Pill Valley’s vice palace master spoke, his voice blazing with killing intent.

  “Hahaha, Long Chen, since you’ve come to my Sha family as a guest, I have to treat you with the right hospitality. I feel like there’s no need to say any unnecessary words to someone about to die a very miserable death.”

  Long Chen recognized the elder that had just spoken. He was the elder who had come with Sha Guangyan to the Eastern Xuan City. He was the head of the Sha family. Sha Guangyan was standing beside him, smiling maliciously at Long Chen.

  “Long Chen, even if you grew wings, you wouldn’t be able to get away!” What Long Chen found surprising was that Peng Wansheng was also present, as well as the elder from back then.

  Ye Qingkuang and his master were also here. The two of them were just coldly staring at Long Chen and didn’t say anything. Perhaps it was because everything they had to say had already been said by the others, so they simply chose to keep their mouths shut.

  Other than them, five other elders were floating in the air, looking at him like prey.

  “Looks like you’ve been waiting for a long time.” Long Chen smiled indifferently.

  His face was calm, but large waves were raging in his heart. He couldn’t understand how they had known he would attack the Sha family.

  He hadn’t told anyone after he had decided to attack the Sha family. No one had known.

  There were plenty of targets he could have attacked. Furthermore, he had just attacked the Pill Tower. Considering the huge waves, people should have assumed he’d go into hiding until things died down a bit.

  Even if people were able to correctly guess that he would brave this danger anyways, how could they guess his target would be the Sha family of all things?

  Even if someone had guessed he would attack the Sha family, how could they be so sure? There was no way so many experts were here by coincidence. They had clearly been fully prepared and sure that he would attack the Sha family.

  Even Peng Wansheng and his elder had come. That proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that they had known he would attack the Sha family. That was what shocked Long Chen the most. However, he didn’t display that shock.

  The head of the Sha family laughed, “Haha, Long Chen, I’m impressed that you can stay so calm in the face of death. Your guts are quite big. Who would have thought that you would attack my Sha family in this kind of situation? If it hadn’t been for-”

  “Cough, there’s no
need to say that much. Long Chen, are you going to come willingly with us, or do we need to use force?” demanded the vice palace master, cutting off his words.

  Long Chen narrowed his eyes. The head of the Sha family had been about to expose a clue. A name suddenly surfaced in his mind.

  “If it hadn’t been for the support of some heaven-peering arts, you would have never imagined such a thing, is that right?”

  A touch of shock appeared on everyone’s faces. Long Chen clenched his fists. Another enemy was courting death.

  Such precise calculations were probably something only Heavenly Fate Island was capable of. But Long Chen couldn’t be sure that it was them, so he only brought up fortune-telling. However, their shock was his answer.

  Back then, Xuan Jizi had found trouble for Long Chen multiple times with his despicable means. In the end, he and the Pill Fairy had killed Xuan Jizi in Pill Valley.

  Because Xuan Jizi had been abandoned by Heavenly Fate Island, Long Chen hadn’t found any trouble for Heavenly Fate Island. Once Xuan Jizi died, Long Chen had let that matter go. But while he didn’t go find trouble for Heavenly Fate Island, Heavenly Fate Island ended up helping Long Chen’s enemies scheme against him.

  Now Long Chen was infuriated. Fine, if they wanted to play, he would play!

  Looking at the experts in the sky, Long Chen was overflowing with battle intent. Evilmoon was on his shoulder.

  “Long Chen, I’d advise you to go quietly with me back to Pill Valley. The valley master will deal with you. That’s your only chance of living,” said the Flame Divine Palace’s vice palace master.

  “Hahaha!” Long Chen laughed. “If I went quietly, I wouldn’t be Long Chen. Since I dared to destroy your Pill Tower, I never had any intention of turning back. Your Pill Valley might like to consider yourselves the upholders of justice in this world, while you actually use despicable means and a monopoly over medicinal pills to control the world. You act neutral, while you secretly stretch your hands throughout the continent, sowing chaos with the intent of controlling everyone. Don’t think that no one knows that you were the ones who secretly destroyed the Xuantian Dao Sect.”

  Long Chen found himself feeling more and more hatred for Pill Valley. From the start, he had suspected that the Xuantian Dao Sect’s destruction had been related to Pill Valley. Even if they hadn’t personally attacked, they had to have been part of the plot. Otherwise, who would dare to destroy a supreme sect so brazenly? Then Li Tianxuan had sent him a message through the Huayun Sect that had confirmed his guess.

  “Long Chen, don’t spout nonsense. The Xuantian Dao Sect’s destruction was done by the Corrupt path. It was part of the conflict between the Righteous and Corrupt paths. However, you went berserk and wrongly released your fury on the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect. You’ve committed uncountable atrocities, but you still dare to slander others?!” shouted the vice palace master.

  “Fuck your mother. Old ghost, do you dare to swear to the heavens that you didn’t participate in the attack against the Xuantian Dao Sect?” cursed Long Chen, his voice ringing like thunder in the air.

  “Hmph, why would I waste my time convincing someone about to die? How childish,” snorted the vice palace master.

  “Sanctimonious hypocrites are the most hateful. You scheme against others in the dark and then feign righteous indignation when they get their revenge in the open. Since you want to kill me, then just come. I promise to pull a few of you old ghosts with me.” Long Chen pointed Evilmoon at them, and an unstoppable will surged out along with chilling killing intent.

  “Long Chen, you destroyed my Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect. Today, I’ll definitely kill you!”

  Qi Yunao was the first to charge out. His Violet Gold Soul Devouring Staff unleashed its divine might, and he used it as a spear, stabbing it at Long Chen. Considering his hatred for him, Qi Yunao immediately launched his sharpest killing blow.

  “There are too many of them. We have to run,” said Evilmoon. Black qi poured out of it, condensing into a huge saber-image.

  BOOM!

  A collision of divine items shook heaven and earth. Divine might filled the world, and blinding light drowned out of the sun.

  After blocking the attack, black light surged out of Evilmoon and enveloped Long Chen. It shot toward the sky, wanting to bring Long Chen away.

  “Want to run now? Stop dreaming.”

  Suddenly, the vice palace master took out a diagram. The world shifted. Endless stars filled heaven and earth, completely sealing this space.

  “The Brahma Divine Diagram?!” Fury appeared in Long Chen’s eyes. That diagram was Pill Valley’s divine item.

  The Brahma Divine Diagram was a priceless treasure, and the information about it was limited to legend. Practically, no one in the current era had ever seen it.

  It had completely sealed this space in the diagram’s own world. There was nowhere to run.

  “Now we’re in trouble. That diagram possesses the will of a god. It’s a true divine item, and after being nourished by endless faith energy, it’s extremely powerful. Although this person is unable to bring out its full power, I’m currently too weak to break its seal,” said Evilmoon. Its voice contained a hint of vexation.

  Long Chen cursed inside. This trap was truly well-laid, as all Long Chen’s trump cards had been calculated in. Clearly, the vice palace master had brought out the Brahma Divine Scripture specifically to handle Evilmoon.

  “Let’s see where you can run to this time! The Brahma Divine Scripture is even more powerful than your Xuantian Dao Sect’s Xuantian Tower! You’re definitely dead, so why bother struggling?” shouted the vice palace master.

  “Of course it’s stronger than the Xuantian Tower, or how could the Xuantian Tower be forced to flee into the chaotic space between worlds?” sneered Long Chen.

  When Long Chen said this, the vice palace master’s expression twitched, but it quickly returned to normal. “Long Chen, don’t bother trying to infuriate me. I won’t quibble with someone about to die.”

  Long Chen cursed again. Even now, when he was forced into this trap of definite death, the vice palace master refused to admit anything.

  Although Li Tianxuan had said that Pill Valley had participated, Long Chen didn’t know the details. But at the very least, this little test revealed just how terrifying the Brahma Divine Scripture was. It was what had forced the Xuantian Tower to flee into chaotic space.

  “Is there really no way to escape?” asked Long Chen.

  “Your only chance is to capture that fellow and use his life as a hostage. Otherwise, even if you killed him, this space has already been formed, and it won’t let us out even if he dies,” said Evilmoon a bit helplessly.

  “Long Chen, hand over your life!”

  Suddenly, divine light blazed. Qi Yunao was attacking once more with the Violet Gold Soul Devouring Staff.

  “Why don’t you fuck off? Split the Heavens 5!”

  Long Chen’s divine ring surged behind him. A huge black saber-image slashed down.

  Five stars appeared in Long Chen’s eyes, and green dragon scales covered his body. Long Chen unleashed all his power.

  Before, Long Chen was forced to slowly increase his power in battle. First, he would activate the divine ring, then the Five Star Battle Armor, and then the Green Dragon Battle Armor.

  It wasn’t for showing off, but that if he didn’t have this warm-up process, instantly raising his power to the peak would be a great burden to his body.

  Yet now, having reached the eighth star transformation, his body had strengthened to the point that he didn’t need to worry about that. Moreover, Qi Yunao’s twisted expression enraged Long Chen.

  Qi Yunao acted like he was a victim when he had been one of the main factors that destroyed the Xuantian Dao Sect. Although Li Tianxuan was still alive, he refused to come out. Something must have happened to the Xuantian Tower, or he would be the first one to come out and defend
Long Chen.

  Qi Yunao’s appearance had fully infuriated Long Chen. He wanted to kill him right now.

  The huge saber-image contained an unstoppable will as it slashed down. That huge power shocked Qi Yunao, and he hastily switched to defense. However, he was still sent flying. Half his body exploded, and he almost died.

  That shocked everyone, but then when they thought about it, they also felt that Qi Yunao was truly stupid. He was the first to charge at Long Chen with his weak physical body.

  Maybe Qi Yunao wanted to kill Long Chen too badly, or maybe he felt that Long Chen was a turtle caught in a jar, unable to resist.

  However, he had forgotten that Long Chen was not a turtle. He was a dragon, a berserk dragon. Anyone who got close would be risking their life.

  “Die!” After almost killing Qi Yunao, Long Chen attacked again.

  “Long Chen, don’t be so arrogant!” The other experts immediately activated their weapons, attacking Long Chen.

  Long Chen was blown away by their combined might. He coughed up blood. In front of this many experts, he was outmatched.

  “Kill him!” An elder raised his sword. He charged at Long Chen, his sword unleashing divine light.

  “If you want to kill me, we’ll have to see if you have that ability.” Long Chen sneered and slashed Evilmoon out. An explosive sound shook everyone’s ears as that elder was blown away. He wasn’t a match for Long Chen in terms of power.

  If he hadn’t had a divine item to block a portion of Long Chen’s power, he’d have been killed. He coughed up blood, shocked.

  That shock quickly transformed into killing intent. Such a person definitely couldn’t be left alive.

  Long Chen had just sent the first one flying when the others blew him away again. He coughed up blood, but in that instant, he formed some rapid hand seals.

  “Double Dragon Destruction!”

  A golden flame dragon and a five-colored lightning dragon roared into existence, causing everyone’s expressions to change.
