They had thought that they would succeed this time as well. However, they would never have imagined that Long Chen would obtain so many inheritances in the Yin Yang World, infecting himself with their karma as well. That fragment of Eastern Wasteland Bell in particular threw the lines of fate into complete chaos. Now it wasn’t just Long Chen, but even the people related to his fate were no longer predictable.
So their flawless plan had become a joke. The remaining two Fate Princes were still dumbfounded, their minds blank, not knowing what to do. They could only continue to transmit everything happening here to the outside world through a secret communication method. They told their reinforcements to hurry up.
Suddenly, the two Fate Princes hiding in the crowd saw two Dragonblood warriors charging toward them.
“We’ve been noticed!”
The two of them were startled, but they were comforted to see that it was just two ordinary Dragonblood warriors. They would be easy to handle. Exchanging a glance, they decided not to hide. They took out their strange rulers, and their Heavenly Dao manifestations appeared behind them.
“Die, you bastards of the Dragonblood Legion!” The two Fate Princes both launched powerful attacks.
“You’re the ones who will die.”
The two Dragonblood warriors suddenly spat at the Fate Princes’ faces, and then they unleashed a kick. Their shoes actually flew off at the two of them.
The two Fate Princes instinctively dodged. However, the runes on their rulers didn’t light up.
They hastily dodged the spit and the shoes. As a result, two sharp swords came from a strange angle, slicing up from beneath their butts.
Blood flew into the sky and rained down. The two Fate Princes were turned into four pieces.
Chapter 1903 I’m Going to Slaughter You All
“How is that possible?!”
Seeing the two Fate Princes be instantly slain by two ordinary Dragonblood warriors, everyone was stunned.
Those were Fate Princes, the strongest geniuses of Heavenly Fate Island. They had all seen one of the Fate Princes attack Bao Buping and Chang Hao, easily crushing them. If Long Chen hadn’t returned, the two of them would have been dead.
If Long Chen could slay one of the Fate Princes instantly, then that was acceptable. After all, that was Long Chen, someone surrounded by a cloud of legend and fame. He was a monster that couldn’t be judged according to common sense.
However, those were just two Dragonblood warriors. Although they were squad leaders, they still couldn’t be stronger than Chang Hao and Bao Buping.
Yet, the two of them had killed the two Fate Princes like chopping a melon. The experts who had witnessed it were unable to comprehend what had just happened.
“Fate Princes? More like scammers,” sneered one of the Dragonblood warriors. Flinging off the blood on his sword, he put his shoe back on and charged back to join the rest of the Dragonblood Legion. The two of them acted like they had just done some insignificant thing.
Seeing the shocked expressions, they were very pleased inside. This was what Long Chen had taught them. When fighting Heavenly Fate Island’s experts, they shouldn’t use normal moves. It would be best if they just did something random that even they didn’t know why they were doing so. As a result, the Heavenly Fate Island’s disciples wouldn’t be able to calculate anything.
Long Chen had already figured out the power of Heavenly Fate Island’s disciples. Their terrifying strength lay mostly in that strange ruler of theirs that could calculate an opponent’s moves.
However, moves that it hadn’t seen before couldn’t be calculated. The disciples using the ruler were used to relying on it, so when fighting normal experts, no matter how complicated their techniques, they could accurately predict how to counter them. However, if you were just a blank piece of paper, there was nothing to calculate because there was no question.
So Long Chen had told his people to just randomly hack around to the point that even they didn’t know the goal of their own moves. As a result, they had instantly slain the two Fate Princes.
In truth, Long Chen had long since been looking for the two Fate Princes, but the two of them were rather crafty, and he had been unable to pinpoint them.
He had intentionally spoken to Huo Lieyun to bait him into spiritually communicating with them. Although he was unable to eavesdrop on their conversation, he was able to sense the fluctuations.
He himself wasn’t able to pinpoint their location, but there was a powerful soul cultivator amongst them. Meng Qi had locked onto their location, and Long Chen had sent two of the squad leaders to stealthily approach them before attacking.
Seeing the two Fate Princes be slain, Long Chen smiled. Looking at the gloomy Huo Lieyun, he lightly said, “Alright, if my calculations are correct, now your connection to the outside world has been severed. Don’t you think it’s time for you to bring out your full power? If you don’t, all these people will be killed. If only a portion die, the large powers will feel hatred for the Martial Heaven Alliance. But if they all die, that hatred will extend to Pill Valley as well.”
Long Chen’s words were like poison arrows piercing Huo Lieyun’s heart. He was infuriated. In front of Long Chen, it felt like all his plans were laid bare. He looked like an idiot.
He was starting to feel uneasy. If he was continued to be led by the nose, he would be utterly defeated.
Just at this moment, a flash of sword-light tore through the void. A figure exploded, his blood raining down.
Yue Zifeng sheathed his sword. The divine emissary of the Bloodkill Hall had managed to endure this long. He had used up all his techniques and movements arts but had been unable to escape his fate of being slain.
Now, the four Fate Princes of Heavenly Fate Island and the three divine emissaries of the Bloodkill Hall were all dead. Furthermore, Yue Zifeng wasn’t injured at all. It didn’t seem like he had used up much energy slaying that divine emissary either.
“Do you need help?” asked Yue Zifeng.
“No. Go help Liu Ruyan.” Long Chen shook his head. Liu Ruyan was having great difficulty handling True Immortal Jiaoqi. His divine item was too powerful.
Yue Zifeng nodded. Without another word, he floated over to Liu Ruyan’s battlefield. His sword once more came out of its sheath, slashing toward True Immortal Jiaoqi.
The instant Yue Zifeng’s sword came out of its sheath, True Immortal Jiaoqi felt a chill all over his body. In the face of a terrifying sword cultivator, he didn’t dare to be careless. His qilin halberd unleashed a blaze of divine light as he fought against the two of them.
With Yue Zifeng joining in, Liu Ruyan had it much easier. The two of them joined hands, forcing the furious True Immortal Jiaoqi back over and over again. Yue Zifeng’s attacks were very threatening, causing True Immortal Jiaoqi to be at a disadvantage.
Currently, the Dragonblood Legion was leading the Martial Heaven Alliance’s charge against the coalition army. With every moment, a genius died, dyeing the ground red with their blood.
The coalition army’s morale fell repeatedly, and they were completely routed. They were fleeing miserably in the face of the Dragonblood warriors, but they were unable to escape through the death formation.
Quite a few experts had tried to attack Xia Chen who was floating in the sky. Xia Chen was the core of this formation, and if he was killed, the formation would crumble.
Unfortunately for them, they were thinking too simply. How could Xia Chen expose himself to danger? When anyone approached him, black qi would swirl around him. He would be fine, but anyone who attacked him would be slain by that black qi.
Xia Chen was connected to this formation. Attacking him was equivalent to attacking the formation.
The experts of the coalition army were in despair. They couldn’t beat their opponents, and they couldn’t run. There was only one conclusion for them. They would all be killed.
The coalition army still had over seven hundred thousand people, while the Martial Heaven Alliance�
��s side had less than three hundred thousand. However, their morale was high, and the Dragonblood warriors were slaughter machines. Although the coalition army outnumbered them two to one, their numbers were rapidly dwindling.
Long Chen looked at the dark-faced Huo Lieyun. Long Chen looked as if he had all the time in the world, but Huo Lieyun on the other side was anxious. He had a difficult decision to make. Seeing these experts being constantly cut down, his thoughts were a bit chaotic.
“Are you calculating how important these people’s lives are? Or are the lives of the Dragonblood warriors and the Martial Heaven Alliance’s disciples more important?” Long Chen smiled at him.
The two Fate Princes had been slain, and although Meng Qi hadn’t been able to do a soulsearch through their soul fragments, she had managed to piece together some fragmentary memories and sent them to Long Chen.
Long Chen was now sure that reinforcements were coming for the other side. Although he didn’t know what kind of reinforcements they were, they had to be powerful.
Unfortunately, now they were in an awkward moment. Huo Lieyun and the others definitely had more trump cards but still didn’t want to expose them. Perhaps it was because they thought that their trump cards were so powerful that if they used them, they would even break the barrier, allowing people to flee. Then they would be unable to slaughter them all like they wanted to.
Long Chen’s appetite was big, but the other side’s appetite was also great. Both sides wanted to completely eliminate each other and gain the greatest profit.
Pill Valley didn’t care about these people’s lives, but they had to take care of other people’s feelings. Huo Lieyun was currently weighing the pros and cons, but he hadn’t made his final decision yet.
Long Chen wasn’t in a rush and didn’t urge Huo Lieyun on. But occasionally, he would say a few words to disturb Huo Lieyun’s mental state.
This was like a game, or perhaps a gamble. It was a contest of the Martial Heaven Alliance against the other large powers of the world. Who won and who lost would influence the entire continent’s state. No one could be careless.
However, Long Chen was different. He didn’t care. No matter what scheme they had, he would receive it. If you wanted to fight, he would fight. If you wanted to wait, he could wait too. In any case, he couldn’t be bothered to try outscheming them. With just one head, how was he supposed to outscheme all the wily old foxes that had come up with this plan? All he needed to do was wait for Huo Lieyun’s trump cards.
“Huo Lieyun, what are you waiting for?! Do you want everyone to die?!” True Immortal Jiaoqi roared. He was infuriated.
It had only been an incense stick’s worth of time, but the coalition army had lost two hundred thousand people. The Dragonblood warriors’ killing power was too terrifying.
Right now, the ones surviving were the elites of the various large powers. The weak ones had long since been slain. The ones who were still able to endure were the true experts.
Battle was like a whetstone. It was like waves washing out the weak. However, now the battle was no longer a whetstone. Instead, it was simply grinding them into nothingness.
Their people’s confidence had been shattered. They had become lambs for the slaughter and were completely broken by the terrifying power of the Dragonblood Legion.
As for the Martial Heaven Alliance’s disciples, they were filled with reverence and worship for the Dragonblood warriors. They were a group of selfless, undefeatable battle gods. They had actually abandoned their own chance to comprehend life and death to protect them, giving them that opportunity.
That kind of heroism made them incomparably grateful. To be fighting alongside them, they felt their blood surging. They had forgotten their fear of death and had forgotten themselves. They were only thinking of following the Dragonblood warriors and annihilating their enemies for their fallen brothers and sisters.
One side was broken, while the other side’s morale was soaring. The coalition army’s numbers continued to drop. In fact, under the pressure of death, some of them were unable to create any kind of defensive might. They simply despaired. The casualties continued to rise.
Seeing his people being slain one by one, True Immortal Jiaoqi roared. However, Huo Lieyun was still conflicted.
“Fuck, I don’t care. I’m going to slaughter you all!”
True Immortal Jiaoqi’s manifestation suddenly exploded. The qilin image inside erupted, and a terrifying roar resounded throughout heaven and earth. A violent pressure crashed down from the heavens, causing the formation to shudder.
Chapter 1904 Dragonbone Evilmoon’s Power
True Immortal Jiaoqi’s manifestation exploded. The original qilin image was blown away, revealing a strange monster.
It was an amalgamation of a qilin and a drake. It had a qilin’s body, but it had nine drake tails growing on its back.
The nine tails soared into the sky, while the qilin scales shone brightly. That figure let out a heaven-shaking roar.
“This is his ultimate manifestation, qilin-drake power!”
“Apparently his race is the descendant of the drake and qilin. He had drake power, qilin power, and qilin-drake power. Rumor is that qilin-drake power can be considered a paragon art in and of itself. Through his manifestation, he can summon his ancestor’s power. Once his manifestation is fully awakened, his power will be able to shatter the heavens.”
“He’s already managed to unlock this ultimate manifestation. If it weren’t for his cultivation base limiting him, he would have long since fully awoken it. But even if it’s not fully awoken, his current power has now multiplied. I never expected him to have such a pure bloodline.”
“I heard that he had failed to obtain the Blue Eye Peacock’s essence blood, but he did find a corrupt drake’s skeleton in some cave. It happened to be the same kind of race as him, so he managed to merge with it very well. The fact that he can summon this qilin-drake power is most likely related to that.”
The neutral camp’s experts were discussing this change spiritedly.
True Immortal Jiaoqi’s Blood Qi surged. It felt like his blood essence had been ignited. He was almost exploding with power.
“Die!”
True Immortal Jiaoqi roared. His halberd rumbled, and it sounded like the cries of a qilin and a drake mixed together. A pillar of divine light blasted forth.
The giant tree that was Liu Ruyan was cut in two by that light. The majority of its crown had been slashed off.
Yue Zifeng swung his sword, helping Liu Ruyan out. However, True immortal Jiaoqi’s power was so great that it caused the void to crumble. Yue Zifeng was sent flying, coughing up blood.
Having summoned his ultimate manifestation, True Immortal Jiaoqi was in his strongest state. His power had multiplied, and even Liu Ruyan and Yue Zifeng combined were unable to block him.
Seeing this revitalized the coalition army’s experts. The Xuan Beasts in particular were cheering.
“I’m not going to play this stupid game with you any longer. Since you’re all cowards, I’ll do your job and kill them all!”
True Immortal Jiaoqi raised his halberd. It was like a blazing sun, and with a single step, he appeared above the Dragonblood warriors, his halberd slashing down.
BOOM!
The giant willow tree once more appeared, blocking True Immortal Jiaoqi, but the giant branches it condensed into a shield were pierced by the halberd. Liu Ruyan was sent flying again.
Having summoned his qilin-drake manifestation, True Immortal Jiaoqi was able to fully activate his divine power. His combat power was several times greater than before.
Even with her undying body, Liu Ruyan couldn’t continue like this. Just these two exchanges had cost her a great deal of energy. The second blow in particular had caused a terrible injury.
With Liu Ruyan sent flying, Yue Zifeng appeared in her stead. At some point, his sword had returned to his sheath.
Yue Zifeng’s gaze was locked onto True Immortal Jiao
qi. His hand reached for the hilt on his back. In that instant, the world became still.
There was no powerful manifestation raging, there were no astral winds unfurling, there was no irresistible pressure. There was nothing at all. There was only calm.
The current Yue Zifeng seemed to have become an icy sword god. He was concentrating all his energy. Mental energy, spiritual energy, everything he had was gathering. The world lost its sound. The only thing left was Yue Zifeng’s sword.
Although some of the people here were sword cultivators, they could all tell that Yue Zifeng had entered a special state. Once he attacked, it would be a thunderous blow.
Just at this moment Long Chen and Evilmoon had a short exchange.
“Are you ready?”
“About. I’ve already fully adapted to that evil dragon’s soul essence.”
“Alright, then it should be time for me to go in. Yue Zifeng’s attack is too dangerous. It’s an attack where either he kills his opponent, or he dies.”
Huo Lieyun was stalling, but Long Chen was stalling as well. Three days ago, Evilmoon had woken up.
It had finished absorbing the metal devouring evil dragon’s soul essence. It had then taken a bit of time to get used to it, so Long Chen was more than happy to stall with Huo Lieyun.
“Die!” True Immortal Jiaoqi felt a sharp pain in his soul upon seeing Yue Zifeng. A sensation of crisis enveloped him, but he still roared and attacked with the qilin halberd.
Yue Zifeng took a deep breath. Sword-light appeared in his eyes, and his hand tightened on his sword.
“Leave this to me.” Suddenly, Long Chen’s voice rang out. He appeared in front of Yue Zifeng.
The two dragon marks on Evilmoon lit up. As a result, an incredibly evil killing intent soared, and a terrifying dragon roar shook the world.
BOOM!
Evilmoon and the qilin halberd collided in the sky. It was like a star had exploded, and terrifying shockwaves filled the barrier.
The experts fighting were blown away by the shockwaves. Even the barrier Xia Chen had set up shuddered intensely, on the verge of collapse.
