Long Chen had witnessed countless storms and all kinds of vicious tricks in his life, but he had never seen anything like this.
Using the essence blood of the eight blazing war horses, he detonated the golden chariot. The moment the chariot erupted, the tremendous impact it generated was earth-shattering.
Not to mention a group of Heavenly Saints—even a group of mid-stage Divine Emperors would be blown to ashes without any warning.
Everything happened so fast and suddenly. Even Long Chen hadn't expected the opponent to use such a move, because seeing the Flame Warhorse pulling the golden chariot, he instinctively wondered who was riding inside.
However, just as they were guessing the opponent's intentions, the golden chariot ran alongside them and suddenly exploded—a fatal blow.
Long Chen couldn't hide his strength and was about to summon the Qiankun Cauldron to protect everyone, but Huai Yushan shot at the exploding chariot like a bolt of lightning.
"Buzz!"
Huai Yushan formed hand seals with both hands, her long hair flying, and thirteen dragon veins surged behind her, forming a strange cluster. As soon as the pattern appeared, the space in front of Huai Yushan twisted in an instant.
In the instant the space distorted, Long Chen clearly felt the space being torn apart. The scene of the golden chariot exploding suddenly shifted into a halter and a halt.
"The Law of Time?"
Long Chen was shocked. Huai Yushan was actually so powerful that she had touched the level of mastering the laws of time?
You have to know, even Long Chen still hasn't touched that height.
"Buzz"—
the twisted space formed a shield. Such a terrifying strike was impossible to block in time.
But Huai Yushan not only distorted space, she also distorted time, delaying the moment the golden chariot exploded, buying everyone precious time. At that moment, everyone rapidly retreated.
With a thunderous boom, everyone was blasted away by the terrifying gale. The leaves beneath their feet transformed into shields, shielding them from the impact.
The leaves were shattered directly, and the disciples of the Undying Dragon Locust clan were still so shocked they saw stars, suffering unbearably, yet unharmed.
"Lady Yushan... Everyone
gasped in shock. Huai Yushan's hands had already disappeared. She had given everyone an opportunity, but she herself endured the strongest impact. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, her face pale as paper, and the thirteen dragon veins behind her rapidly dimmed. Her aura suddenly weakened.
"Hurry!"
Huai Yushan's face was pale, but her gaze remained sharp. She sensed something was wrong. This attack was carefully planned, definitely not a coincidence. The enemy must be nearby.
"Trying to leave? Don't even think about it!"
At that moment, a cold snort rang out. The void exploded in all directions—front, back, left, right—and countless figures surrounded everyone.
When these people appeared, the overwhelming demonic energy surged, and the entire world instantly became eerie and gloomy.
Seeing these figures, Huai Yushan's expression changed. She hadn't expected to be targeted by a group of demon clan experts.
All four directions were blocked. Unless they could fly through the sky or escape the ground, there was absolutely no chance of escape today.
"Demon Clan, are you trying to make an enemy of our Undying Clan?" Huai Yushan said coldly.
The demon clan was endless; just the Divine Empress-level experts numbered dozens, each exuding a powerful aura and overwhelming pressure. Yet Huai Yushan showed no sign of fear.
"A bunch of foolish brats, don't know your place. Today, you can only be considered unlucky." An elder demon clan member showed a sinister smile at the corner of his mouth, revealing a set of yellow teeth, looking utterly sinister.
"We have no intention of making enemies of the Undying Clan, but to advance to Human Emperor, I need to borrow your lives. I have no choice but to resort to this measure."
At that moment, a voice rang out, and countless demon clan experts cleared a passage. Sixteen blazing war horses appeared, pulling a massive golden war chariot.
Behind the golden chariot followed dozens of chariots smaller than itself,
each chariot identical to the one attacking them. "Whoosh!"
The curtain of the golden chariot was lifted, revealing a man dressed in purple with a golden crown appearing on the chariot.
When the man wearing the golden crown appeared, all the demon clan experts present bowed in salute, including those of the Divine Empress, clearly showing his high status.
"Lord Yefeng, I discovered them, but they moved very quickly, and the leader was very strong. I was afraid they would escape, so I self-destructed my chariot. Please ...," a young demon clan expert stepped forward hurriedly and said.
"You did very well. Losing a golden chariot but gaining so many top-grade Dragon Locust Tree Hearts is what I need most. I'll reward you properly later." The man wearing the golden crown smiled faintly.
"Thank you, sir."
The man was overjoyed upon hearing this, looking as if he wanted to step forward and kowtow to the man in the golden crown.
While the blond man was speaking, Long Chen sneaked a glance at him from the crowd. He saw his pointed ears, narrow eyes, fair skin, and two short horns growing from the top of his head.
In terms of appearance, it was quite attractive, but as it spoke, it revealed a set of dark yellow teeth, and its aura carried the power of the earth.
At that moment, Long Chen suddenly understood that this group of demons must be earth-element cultivators, capable of controlling the power of thick earth.
And the reason they were willing to offend the Undying Clan was because they wanted the tree hearts of Huai Yushan and the others.
If an earth-element expert could also master the power of wood, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
Moreover, judging by their tone, it was one of this guy's men who discovered Huai Yushan and the others, secretly gathered men, and only then did they self-destruct their chariot, leaving them behind and giving them no chance to escape.
Their attacks were ruthless and rigorous, their judgments precise. Even though they were enemies, Long Chen still felt these people had brains.
That guy clearly saw that Huai Yushan was too strong. Without going all out, he might not be able to keep them. Without getting permission, he self-detonated such a precious war chariot. His subordinates were truly bold.
"This is trouble, we've been outmaneuvered!"
Huai Yushan transmitted her voice to everyone.
Even someone as powerful as her, surrounded by so many powerful figures and injured, couldn't help but change her expression at this moment.
"You won't escape. Accept your fate. Under the encirclement of our Night Demon clan, your Undying Dragon Locust Clan's Earth Escape technique is ineffective. Hand over the tree hearts obediently, and I can spare your lives."
The man wearing the crownStanding atop the golden chariot, he looked down at the crowd as if looking at his prey, with a victor's smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Do you really think anyone would believe your nonsense? If the Undying Clan finds out about this, how will your Night Demon Clan withstand their wrath?" Huai Yushan sneered.
"If that's the case, then you may die!"
Seeing the lie exposed, the crowned man's expression turned cold. He waved his hand, ready to give the order.
"Buzz."
But just as his large hand was raised, one large hand gripped a brick and slammed hard toward the back of his head.
