Xie Luo’s killing intent intensified. Originally, the Blue Eye Peacock’s corpse had been perfect, but it had been half ruined by Long Chen’s flames.
If its corpse was intact, then even without the original true feathers, he would have been able to preserve eighty percent of its power. If that happened, who in the Yin Yang World would be able to block him? And if the corpse still had its feathers, Long Chen would probably have died from that attack. He would have never had a chance to mock him.
“Stop wasting time! Kill Long Chen immediately!” shouted Huo Lieyun, once more attacking with his flame giant.
“Qilin-drake merger, bloodline summoning, ancestral spirit possession!” True Immortal Jiaoqi also let out a shout. An image of a qilin and a drake appeared on his forehead.
The power of his Blood Qi skyrocketed. It was like divine flames were burning around him.
“He’s actually using his ancestral power. They’re not planning on stopping until Long Chen is dead.” The neutral camp’s experts were shocked.
“They treat Long Chen as someone they must kill here. Clearly, they’re alright with leaving anyone other than him alive.”
When comparing Long Chen to the Dragonblood Legion and the Martial Heaven Alliance’s geniuses, they clearly cared more about eliminating Long Chen. They viewed him as a greater threat than everyone else added together.
“Huo Lieyun’s tactics aren’t wrong. As long as the Dragonblood Legion and the Martial Heaven Alliance are present, with Long Chen’s character, he won’t leave even if he has to fight to the death. However, if they get destroyed, Long Chen won’t have anything holding him back. He’d leave, and then considering his talent and ruthless character, those powers would have to live in fear for the rest of their lives.”
It was no wonder Huo Lieyun wasn’t focusing on the Dragonblood Legion or the Martial Heaven Alliance. He was using those people to keep Long Chen here. He truly understood Long Chen.
“Hmph, I only view Long Chen as a real hero. The rest of them are fakes,” said one Empyrean. In his eyes, Long Chen was the only one worthy of that title.
“It’s too bad his character is too obvious. His enemies already know how to bait him into traps easily.”
“Long Chen is Long Chen. This is his flaw, but it’s not always a bad thing. It’s because of this flaw that he has a group of people willing to follow him unto death. Other than the Sovereigns, has there ever been someone with such charisma? Someone capable of making countless people risk their lives alongside them?”
For a moment, the neutral camp’s people were silent. From the Eastern Wasteland to the Central Plains, Long Chen had fought through countless despicable traps and countless life and death battles. But this characteristic of his had never changed. He never bowed his head.
Such a person looked a bit foolish and lacked flexibility. However, there was no choice but to admit that he possessed unmatched charisma.
They looked at the Dragonblood warriors slaughtering their enemies on the battlefield. Even this new army of the Martial Heaven Alliance possessed amazing morale. That was his charisma.
Even as spectators, they were unknowingly affected by it, having an urge to join the battle.
“Long Chen, you’ll be dying without a burial today!”
On the battlefield, Huo Lieyun, True Immortal Jiaoqi, and Xie Luo had surrounded Long Chen, making sure he had nowhere to run.
“Having a burial isn’t important. What’s important is that you don’t have that ability,” said Long Chen fearlessly.
Just as the three of them were fighting, on the other side, Di Feng was fighting Mo Nian. Divine light flowed around Di Feng. He was wearing divine armor, wielding his divine spear, and now there was a giant five-colored divine ring behind him.
This divine ring was different from Long Chen’s. Its five colors were absorbing the energy of the five elements for Di Feng.
His spear, armor, and divine ring were a rare set of divine items. They were part of the Di family’s inheritance and relied on bloodline power to be activated.
His three divine items were at full power, but he was unable to charge past Mo Nian’s blockade.
The two large figures in Mo Nian’s manifestation were forming hand seals, transmitting divine light into Mo Nian’s body.
As for the Five Element Sun Hunting Bow in his hand, each arrow it shot out caused the world to dim. It was blazing as intensely as the sun.
Rumor was that when the Five Element Sun Hunting Bow was at full power, it could shoot down the sun and pierce the moon. It was unknown what trump card Mo Nian had activated, but his power was so great that he was evenly matched against Di Feng.
Mo Nian’s power was out of Huo Lieyun’s expectations. His original plan was for the four of them to go all-out and kill Long Chen before eliminating the others.
This was the mission that Pill Valley had given him. He was to make sure that the other powers suffered a bit so they would go against the Martial Heaven Alliance.
Once Long Chen and the others were dead, those powers would band together to deal the final nail in the coffin to the Martial Heaven Alliance.
He had gone above and beyond the first part of his mission. The large powers had suffered immense losses, far beyond any expectations. Now the question was whether or not they could kill Long Chen.
“Attack!” Huo Lieyun suddenly shouted, his spear piercing toward Long Chen.
True Immortal Jiaoqi and Xie Luo followed. Long Chen was the crux. He had to be killed. Now that things had developed to this point, they could not permit him to leave here alive.
As long as the Dragonblood Legion was still here, there was no way Long Chen would flee on his own. This was their best chance to kill him.
With the three of them joining hands, divine light exploded. Each attack was a peerless killing blow.
Evilmoon was also shining with divine light, and a dragon cry resounded through the air. Long Chen was unleashing all his power. Dragon might soared out as he blocked their attacks.
“This isn’t his power but his saber’s. He won’t be able to last long!” shouted Huo Lieyun, noticing this oddity.
Evilmoon was emitting a grand dragon might, and the majority of their attacks were blocked by it. Long Chen himself was enduring very little of their power. So even though he was fighting three against one, he was able to last for a while.
Just as they were fighting, the sky shuddered. A group of experts came flying over. When that group appeared, the remaining thirty thousand members of the coalition army let out a cheer.
“Bastards of the Martial Heaven Alliance, now you’re dead!”
Chapter 1907 Endless Sea of Lightning
“That’s…”
When that group appeared, the people in the neutral camp were stunned. As soon as they arrived, the Daos of the world were suppressed. They were a group of peerless experts.
“Are they Netherpassage experts…?” asked someone with a shuddering voice.
That was because the aura of this group was absolutely terrifying. It was like they were the rulers of this world.
“No, they aren’t at the Netherpassage realm. They’re only Life Star experts. However, they’re all powerful Empyreans, so the pressure of their auras is on the same level as ordinary Netherpassage experts,” said Hu Feng.
“Impossible! Isn’t it impossible for Life Star experts to enter the Yin Yang World? Have the rules of the Yin Yang World changed?”
“The Yin Yang World’s rules haven’t changed. However, rules are dead, while humans are alive…” said Hu Feng.
“You mean to say… those experts broke through in the Yin Yang World?”
That was crazy. A group of over three thousand Empyreans had actually broken through to the Life Star realm in the Yin Yang World and sacrificed all their future prospects just to kill Long Chen. That price was terrifying.
“They are really ruthless. This also proves that they want to make sure the Dragonblood Legion and th
e Martial Heaven Alliance’s disciples can’t escape. Based on their auras, these people have just broken through to the Life Star realm. They had to have undergone their tribulations just as the two armies met,” said Hu Feng sharply. These people were definitely insane and very frightening. He waved his hand. “Get further away from the battlefield, the farther the better.”
Although their group was neutral, they were now witnessing a group of madmen. No one could guarantee that they wouldn’t do something even more insane.
“Kill!”
Those three thousand Empyreans that had just broken through to the Life Star realm charged toward the Dragonblood Legion.
“I’ll handle you.” Guo Ran was the first to face them. He hacked his golden saber, and as a result, he was sent flying by a Life Star Empyrean’s sword. He almost coughed up blood.
Guo Ran was alarmed. These people were actually shockingly powerful. “Bastards, how can they be so strong?!”
“They’ve already broken through to the Life Star realm, and they are Empyreans whose manifestations have reached an initial level of awakening. As they now possess a Life Star expert’s world energy, we’ll definitely be at a disadvantage in a direct clash,” said Meng Qi.
“Then what do we do?” Guo Ran actually had no ideas. Over three thousand Life Star Empyreans with manifestations that had started to awaken? What could they possibly do against them?
“We should break through to the Life Star realm and go all-out against them!” shouted one of the Dragonblood warriors.
“Don’t say that. Then we’ll never be able to progress to Netherpassage,” shouted Guo Ran.
“Everyone, retreat and summon the Dragon Blood Heavenly Barrier!” shouted Long Chen suddenly.
Following his shout, Meng Qi, Chu Yao, Tang Wan-er, Cloud, Liu Ruyan, Xia Chen, Guo Ran, Gu Yang, Yue Zifeng, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, Yue Xiaoqian, Ye Zhiqiu, and the other experts stopped fighting their opponents and retreated.
The Dragonblood warriors formed a strange formation, and they made sure to protect all the Martial Heaven Alliance’s disciples within. Pillars of Blood Qi soared out of each of their bodies.
Xia Chen floated in the air, the giant formation disc spinning above him. Suddenly, the formation disc exploded. Its particles enveloped them all.
“Dragon Blood Heavenly Barrier!” Xia Chen let out a cry. A giant barrier appeared around everyone.
The power of the Dragonblood warriors was linked with dragon blood. It was that energy that condensed into this giant barrier.
“Hmph, we abandoned our futures just to kill you. Do you think resisting will have any use?”
Those Life Star experts had sinister expressions. Which of them had been willing to abandon their futures? However, they had had no choice. If they didn’t obey, they would be killed.
They were geniuses raised by various large sects. They were extremely talented and originally had limitless prospects. However, they didn’t have any powerful backgrounds themselves, so they were forced into this plan.
These orders were something they had no choice but to obey. So they themselves were filled with hatred and resentment. Now they were releasing all that anger on the Dragonblood Legion.
Berserk attacks struck the barrier. That power was immense.
In unison, every Dragonblood warrior coughed up a mouthful of blood. In the very first clash, they were injured.
“They’re too powerful! We can’t last for long!” Xia Chen’s expression changed.
“We’ll help.”
Meng Qi, Tang Wan-er, Yue Xiaoqian, Yue Zifeng, and the others began to transmit their own spiritual yuan into the Dragonblood warriors to strengthen the defenses.
“There’s us as well. What do we do?” Ye Lingshan and the others shouted.
Willow branches sprouted from the ground. Liu Ruyan said, “Transmit your spiritual yuan to me, and I will transmit it to the Dragonblood warriors.”
Hearing that, the disciples of the Martial Heaven Alliance poured in their spiritual yuan. The barrier rumbled. With everyone working together, the barrier managed to endure.
“This should be your final trump card, correct? Then we can go all-out.” Long Chen suddenly shouted, and his upper robes exploded, revealing his upper body.
The green scales covering his body suddenly darkened, becoming black. As blood spurted out from between them, a pillar of light soared into the sky, infecting the sky with darkness. An evil aura caused the sky to shudder.
Long Chen’s aura was crazily rising, growing stronger and stronger. Huo Lieyun, Xie Luo, and True Immortal Jiaoqi were actually blown back by just that terrifying aura. They stared in shock at Long Chen.
The current Long Chen looked evil, bloodthirsty, domineering, and emotionless, like a fiend from hell that was slowly recovering its power.
“What’s going on?!” roared True Immortal Jiaoqi. This power actually made him feel fear.
“It’s that weapon of his! He’s powering it to strengthen himself,” said Huo Lieyun. He noticed black qi flowing out of Evilmoon and into Long Chen. Long Chen’s scales were turned black by them.
It was like an evil dragon was about to burst out of Long Chen’s body. His physical body was tearing, and blood continued to pour out of him.
“Are you able to endure?” asked Evilmoon.
Long Chen’s physical body was too weak to endure its full power. Evilmoon could only transmit a portion of its energy into Long Chen, forcing his body to the limit. That was the only way they could go all-out.
However, this kind of power naturally came with an immense backlash. One mistake and his meridians would be broken. However, this was Long Chen’s only remaining move.
“I’ll endure it.” Long Chen clenched his teeth. His physical body was constantly tearing and healing. He was in indescribable pain, but he had to endure.
BOOM!
Suddenly, the world shook. Long Chen’s scales were fully black now. His aura was finally no longer spreading.
“Alright, this level of power should be enough to use all the available power I have. Go, Long Chen! Make this world tremble because of us. Slaughter and roar as much as you please!” Evilmoon let out a roar filled with killing intent. Its soul formed a resonance with Long Chen’s soul.
Long Chen suddenly let out a heaven-shaking roar. Mountains collapsed, and all the experts felt a chill. This roar was the overture of a slaughter.
Long Chen’s voice had become deep as if he was a different person. It was merciless and domineering, as well as filled with a determination to charge forward regardless of what lay before him.
Long Chen took a step forward, and True Immortal Jiaoqi went to block him. Divine light erupted from his qilin halberd.
“Scram!”
BOOM!
Long Chen let out a simple slash of Evilmoon. Black light flowed out of it, and True Immortal Jiaoqi’s arms were instantly broken. His halberd smashed into his own chest, and he was sent flying back, hacking up blood.
Long Chen’s power had risen to a monstrous level. Evilmoon was finally able to use some of its power, and in this state, True Immortal Jiaoqi was actually unable to receive a single attack.
A black saber-image sliced through the air, attacking the Life Star Empyreans.
Those Life Star Empyreans had no choice but to stop attacking the Dragonblood Legion and focus on blocking Long Chen’s attack.
BOOM!
Those Life Star Empyreans were blown back by Long Chen’s saber.
“Die!”
Long Chen suddenly charged toward them, unleashing a tempest of attacks with Evilmoon. One Life Star Empyrean after another was blown to bits. Even divine items were blown apart.
“Heavens, Long Chen is absolutely heaven-defying! He can even fight across realms against Life Star Empyreans with partly awoken manifestations!” The neutral camp’s experts’ jaws dropped. No one had expected Long Chen to possess such a terrifying trump card.
In the blink of an eye, Long Chen had ki
lled eighteen of those Empyreans. It had to be known that each of them was a terrifying existence. When it came to combat power, they were only the slightest hair weaker than Huo Lieyun, Xie Luo, and True Immortal Jiaoqi.
However, they weren’t a match for Long Chen in his current state. But then again, eighteen of them dead meant nothing to this army of three thousand.
Those experts quickly recovered from their shock. However, they had just gathered when a lightning dragon appeared behind Long Chen. It rapidly spun, forming a giant lightning channel. A world of lightning could be seen within that channel.
“Brothers, come slaughter them all!” Long Chen suddenly roared. Following his cry, countless lightning drakes came flying out of the lightning portal.
Chapter 1908 The Dragonblood Attack
Wild lightning poured out of the channel, turning the world into a sea of lightning.
All of a sudden, terrifying roars rang out as millions of lightning drakes flew out of the channel, running rampant and attacking the Life Star Empyreans as well as the rest of the coalition army.
Long Chen was immersed in the lightning. Lei Long continued to spin behind him. He was like a god of lightning.
These lightning drakes were the lifeforms of the Morning Dao Lightning Field. Long Chen had previously made an agreement with the master of the lightning field. As long as he needed it, the lightning field’s lifeforms would have to listen to him.
Long Chen was finally unleashing this trump card. The lightning drakes crazily attacked the coalition army.
“What are these things?!” The Life Star Empyreans roared. They were forced to defend against the lightning drakes’ furious attacks. Although the lightning drakes were temporarily unable to injure them, they did cause their bodies to go numb and slow their movements. The invasion of thunderforce was very uncomfortable.
When they attacked the lightning drakes, the lightning drakes would explode and then immediately reform to attack them once again. There was no end to them.
