"Crack, crack, crack..."
The crack kept growing, chaotic energy surging out from it. Amid the cracking sounds, people seemed to hear the whimpering of the Heavenly Vein Profound Realm.
At that moment, everyone was shocked.
"What level of power is this?"
Someone's voice trembled, and countless people were terrified. This strike was utterly despairing, as if their faith in cultivation had been severed.
"What a terrifying strike."
Even Gu Yang and the others felt their scalps tingle. They had never seen Long Chen in white before, and seeing the boss in such a cold and chilling aura, clearly not the Long Chen they knew, they were all horrified.
With this slash, Long Chen in white tore through the entire world. The dragon scale space was pierced, the barrier became transparent, and the scene inside was laid bare.
In front of Long Chen in white stood a man, a thumb-wide crack visible from head to abdomen. With this strike, he was cleaved in two entirely.
"You sly trash! Who would have thought that I, Zhu Yin, would capsize in the gutter and die at the hands of a petty man like you? But don't get too happy yet—come with me to hell!" Zhu Yin roared in anger.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, his body exploded, transforming into billions of purple dragon talismans, surging like a tide, instantly enveloping the white-robed dragon dust.
"Candle Yin Blood Curse!"
Zhu Yin roared angrily, billions of runes exploding with a roar. Purple flames surged, igniting the entire Dragon Scale Space.
"Pfft...
The moment billions of runes exploded, White-robed Dragon Chen channeled all his power to form a barrier, which shattered instantly, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.
He hadn't expected the power of the blood curse to be so terrifying. The most terrifying part was that the cursed flame had invaded his soul.
"Buzz."
At that moment, Long Chen's body suddenly trembled. White appeared around the outer circle of his black eyes, quickly covering them, and one of Long Chen's eyes returned to normal.
The white robe gradually turned black, and the evil aura on Long Chen slowly faded.
"You used me... Long Chen's voice was filled with shock and anger. In that moment, he seemed to understand everything.
"Why does that sound so harsh? I'm giving you a stage to perform for free—shouldn't you thank me?" A smile appeared at the corner of Long Chen's mouth, a smile that looked so sinister.
"Just wait. The next time I appear, you'll disappear forever." Long Chen in white said coldly.
"Let's wait until next time!" Long Chen smiled faintly.
"Buzz!"
Long Chen's aura completely vanished. Long Chen regained control of his body. At this moment, endless purple flames surged around him, and the entire Dragon Scale Space was immersed in a sea of purple fire.
Within these flames was Zhu Yin's dying curse, capable of destroying the body, burning the soul, and causing the body and soul to be destroyed in endless pain. It was an extremely terrifying curse.
However, this curse worked on the white-robed Dragon Chen, but not on him. What a joke—the dragon blood here shares the same origin as his own. Who in this world curses themselves?
As for the flames, they posed no threat to Long Chen; in fact, they were a great tonic for Huo Ling'er. Without Long Chen needing to act, Huo Ling'er sensed the power of the flames and began absorbing it automatically.
"Hehe, getting it was effortless."
Long Chen chuckled, sitting cross-legged in the void, forming hand seals. Nine dragon blood veins appeared, wildly devouring the surrounding flame power.
"You really are sinister. Zhuyin is so powerful, yet you actually killed him alive." The Chaos Dragon Emperor couldn't help but sigh.
Zhu Yin was its inner demon, growing up with it. No one understood Zhu Yin's strength better than it.
Watching Zhu Yin die so humiliatedly, it felt a faint pang of sympathy. Back then, when it used words to pressure Zhu Yin, it was just to give Long Chen a fair chance.
Who would have thought Long Chen had summoned the White-Clad Dragon Chen, and he had already condensed thirteen strands of Heavenly Vein Dragon Qi, catching Zhu Yin completely off guard.
Zhu Yin, one of the nine dragon veins, suffered a heavy defeat against the white-robed Dragon Chen of thirteen dragon veins and wanted to destroy the altar to raise its power to the thirteen heavenly veins and compete with the white-robed dragon Chen.
Long Chen in white seemed completely unaware that Zhu Yin could continue to improve his strength. He directly severed Zhu Yin's arm with a single slash, unwilling to waste time, decisively finishing the battle and concentrating all his power into a single strike.
The powerful Zhu Yin was actually killed by White-robed Dragon Chen as a minor character. Zhu Yin's death was truly stifling.
Based on the Chaos Dragon Emperor's understanding of White-robed Dragon Chen, if he knew that Zhuyin possessed thirteen Heavenly Vein dragon energy, with his pride, he would definitely give Zhuyin the chance to condense thirteen dragon veins before a fair battle.
But now, saying nothing was meaningless. Zhu Yin was already dead, and the death curse had severely wounded White-Robed Dragon Chen, but for Black-Robed Dragon Chen, it hadn't hurt a single hair.
It could be said that Long Chen effortlessly defeated Zhu Yin, severely wounded his inner demon, and took control of the Reverse Scale Space. This scheme was extremely sinister.
Even the Chaos Dragon Emperor felt sorry for Zhu Yin and the white-robed Long Chen, not knowing what had happened from beginning to end.
"Rumble...
Long Chen defeated Zhu Yin, and the dragon scale space began to burn. The dragon pillar and altar started to melt, and as they melted, pure power was rapidly released, spreading outward rapidly.
"Break into the Dragon Scale Space and compete for the Dragon Source Essence Blood."
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly. Countless people rushed into the Dragon Scale Space like madmen. As they rushed forward, they realized that countless figures had already been lying on the Dragon Scale Space, frantically absorbing energy from the flames.
Although the flames carry the power of curses, as monster-level experts, most have ways to resist curses.
Moreover, as the flames burned, the cursed power weakened and no longer posed a threat to them.
"Get lost! This is our turf. Intruders—kill them without mercy."
"Go to hell with your mother! I'll say this is my turf. Let's attack together and kill them!"
Although the outer edge of the Dragon Scale Space was vast, there were simply too many people. In an instant, figures filled the entire space, and ninety-nine percent of the experts hadn't even reached the distance yet.
In the chaos, countless powerful figures sprang into battle for territory, blood splattering everywhere and severed limbs scattered everywhere.
A powerful force would shrink their formation and adopt an absolute defensive stance, allowing more people to absorb as much of the sacred power within the flames as possible.
Although they were all Nine Meridian Heavenly Saints and could no longer condense the Heavenly Veins, the flames contained the sacred power of dragon blood and the laws of the Imperial Dao. Absorbing them would not only allow them to advance smoothly to the Human Emperor realm, but might even advance perfectly.
There are many forms to advance to Human Emperor. Perfect advancement is something countless people dream of, because Human Emperors are divided into ranks, and the differences between different Human Emperors are enormous.
It is precisely because of the importance of perfect advancement that so many prodigies have gone so wild. While others are fiercely competing for it, the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest has already been embedded in the barrier of Dragon Scale Space. The Dragon Blood Legion bathes in the flames of dragon blood while always ready to fight.
"Attack the gap, let's rush in through it."
Hou Tianwu's roar echoed, causing Gu Yang and the others' expressions to change—finally, someone had made a move.
