That was Long Chen's fire dragon. At the critical moment, the fire dragon swept across the heavens, igniting the world, and endless flames enveloped Guo Ran.
Amidst the endless flames, Guo Ran had no blood clan to block him. Arrows shot rapidly, every shot missing, each one destroying a siege war chariot.
Guo Ran was protected by the fire dragon, allowing his arrows to shoot through endless flames. However, the blood clan experts dared not enter the flames, as the Water Spirit Flame would burn them alive.
The blood clan army fell into chaos in an instant, hastily ordering the siege war vehicles to withdraw. In just a few breaths, dozens of siege war vehicles had already been wiped out by Guo Ran.
If this continued, the siege chariots would soon be wiped out. But the siege chariots were too large and slow-moving. The barbarian bull monsters pulling the carts panicked, some disobeyed orders, and some abandoned their chariots and fled.
The giant crossbow in Guo Ran's hand trembled continuously, arrow after arrow like blood-red lightning. Hundreds of siege war chariots were completely destroyed by him in just over a dozen breaths.
"Done!"
Guo Ran finished all the siege battle vehicles without any delay. With a swift movement, he left the fire dragon's domain and flew straight toward the Dragon Blood Legion.
After helping Guo Ran, the fire dragon vanished in an instant, leaving countless ashes behind on the earth.
Guo Ran sped forward, turning to look toward Long Chen. He saw Long Chen and the man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan locked in a frenzy in the void far off the battlefield. The void flickered in flickering light, black mist collided with golden light, and space twisted continuously. This was a world-shaking battle, making it impossible to see their figures clearly, and it was unclear who had gained the upper hand.
Guo Ran charged through endless obstacles before finally returning to the Dragonblood Legion. At this moment, the Dragonblood Legion was also in trouble. The bloodclan experts attacked from all directions, relentlessly attacking the formation and making it increasingly difficult to advance.
While he was destroying the siege battle chariots, Meng Qi's 108 twelfth-tier peak magical beasts also began to form a frenzied battle in formation.
However, magical beasts have limited intelligence; some commands they cannot understand, and once a beast is hit painfully, anger surges, sometimes ignoring Meng Qi's commands and attacking on its own.
As a result, Meng Qi's magical beast formation was quickly broken. The beasts fought on their own, facing the overwhelming onslaught of blood clan experts and the Soul-Devouring Black Armor Army. It was like millions of field mice gnawing on an elephant—one twelfth-tier magical beast after another finally couldn't hold on and slowly collapsed.
Liu Ruyan, Chu Yao, Ye Zhiqiu, Tang Wan'er, Xiaoyun, and others gave their all to support the Dragon Blood Legion, slaughtering enemies frantically. Their long skirts were already stained red with blood.
At this moment, the world was filled with blood mist, and the battle was extremely fierce. On Xia Chen's side, the intensity was no less intense than that on the Dragonblood Legion's side.
The Dragonblood Legion only blocked a portion of the blood clan; most of them were heading for the exit—that was their ultimate goal.
Xia Chen sat cross-legged within the grand formation, with six formation disks arranged around him. He waved his hands repeatedly, fingers continuously moving the disks.
On the earth, sharp swords pierced the air, arrows rained down in the void, and from time to time, phantom beasts appeared within the formation, charging into the enemy ranks and exploding with a thunderous crash. As the beasts shattered, countless blood clan experts fell from the void and then died in such a bizarre way.
Before the formation, the corpses of the Blood Clan army and the Soul-Devouring Black Armor Army had already piled up like mountains. Whenever there were too many corpses blocking Xia Chen's view, the formation would activate. A gust of fierce wind blew through, slaughtering the corpses to ashes and spreading across the world.
Even though the distance was far enough and the grand formation blocked them, the strong warriors on the Tianwu Continent still felt suffocated—this war was too brutal.
Many strong fighters were already sweating on their foreheads. Usually, they fought alone, competed with others, and fearless.
But in this brutal war, they realized how insignificant individual strength was. No matter how strong one person was, facing an endless army, if overwhelmed, death was certain.
Xia Chen's fingers trembled continuously on the formation disk, clicking each rune, each symbol representing a variation of the formation.
Sometimes a single rune can trigger a certain attack from a grand formation; other times, you need to hold several runes simultaneously to launch an attack.
People saw Xia Chen's fingers leaping continuously across the six formation disks, lightning-fast. The formation was ever-changing, with arrows, flying swords, beams of light, war hammers, and axes all kinds of attacks crashing back and forth, forming a realm of death.
Sometimes, when a supreme expert charged into the formation, Xia Chen would strike the entire formation plate, and countless steel spikes shot out from the earth. Any expert hit by the spikes would instantly rot black and rot, and before they could escape, they would be shredded to ashes by the formation.
Those steel nails were poison-tempered killing weapons, designed to kill the strongest beings who could break into the formation. Xia Chen was like a musician, his fingers turning as he played a cruel overture to killing.
Li Jing stood behind Xia Chen, not daring to move at all. Staring at the endless ferocious Blood Clan army and the Soul-Devouring Black Family Army, she feared they would rush over and tear her and Xia Chen to pieces.
The only thing that reassured her was that Xia Chen's expression remained calm throughout, showing no sign of nervousness.
"Boom..."
Suddenly, the void lit up with intense light, igniting the sky. In the distance, vast areas of the void collapsed, and people hurriedly looked toward the distance.
Behind the Golden-Horned Blood Clan man, the void split open, revealing an endless sea of blood churning. His aura was sinister and violent.
Behind Long Chen, the endless sea of lightning empowered, the sea of blood collided with the sea of lightning, and the two forces collided, unleashing a light fiercer than the sun.
Long Chen bathed in the sea of thunder, with thousand-mile thunder wings appearing behind him. In his right hand, the Dragonbone Evil Moon, and his left Thunder Spear, he coldly stared at the shocked man of the Golden Horn Blood Clan opposite him.
The man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan had countless pillars of light stretching from behind him into the blood sea, and boundless power surged into his body.
This move was a secret technique of the Golden Horn Blood Clan, a sea of faith formed by gathering the power of an entire clan. Yet his Blood Sea domain was actually suppressed by Long Chen's thunder domain.
"Who exactly are you?" The man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan shouted sternly.
It should be known that the blood sea behind the man of the Golden Horn Blood Clan has a profound origin. This blood sea has fused with the essence blood of the human race, making it a trump card the Golden Horn Blood Clan uses against humans.
When the blood sea erupts, the blood energy within it affects the vitality of human warriors, making the condensed blood of their strength thin and weak, greatly reducing combat power.
This Blood Sea Domain is also the strongest killer move of the Golden Horn Blood Clan against humans. Its power not only empowers him but also counters humans.
After a fierce battle just now, he and Long Chen were evenly matched. He thought the two were evenly matched, but when Guo Ran fell into trouble and Long Chen summoned the Fire Dragon to help him, the man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan was furious—Long Chen hadn't even given his full strength.
This was a humiliation for him. In his rage, he directly summoned the Blood Sea Domain to suppress Long Chen, intending to kill him in one strike. Even if the human powerhouse saw through the origin of this move, he wouldn't care.
But he was too optimistic. Long Chen's sea of thunder resisted the power of his blood sea, and Long Chen felt nothing about that bloodline suppression. So, the man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan was both shocked and furious, guessing that Long Chen was not human at all.
"The person who killed you,"
Long Chen sneered, unwilling to waste words with him. Seeing that time was about right—at most half an incense stick's time—he'd finish the task. Who would bother nagging him?
"Heavenly Thunder Splits Heavenly Wings"
Long Chen shouted sharply. The thunder wings behind him slashed down like a wild blade, carrying endless thunder runes, as if a river of thunder sliced down.
Seeing Long Chen refuse to speak, the man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan roared angrily. From the sea of blood behind him, a blood-red spear surged out, charging straight at Long Chen's thunderous wings.
With a loud explosion, the thunder wings and blood-red spears shattered simultaneously, thunder runes and blood-red symbols scattering across the world.
"Mad Thunder Battle Soul Spear"
"Boom"
"Eighth Form of Heaven Opening" Long
Chen launched three consecutive moves, blocking the Spear, But the man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan was also shaken back repeatedly. When he saw the eighth form of the Heaven-Opening Technique, his expression changed dramatically.
"You..."
Long Chen had previously used the Eighth Form of Heaven-Opening before, but this eighth form was completely different from before.
The previous eighth form of the Heaven-Opening Technique was all superficial, but in reality, it was all Long Chen's intention. He wanted to lull the man of the Golden Horn Blood Clan into a complacency, making him feel that Long Chen's blade wasn't that terrifying.
Now that the previous two moves had been blocked, Long Chen's true killing move had arrived. This time, the eighth form of the Heaven-Opening Heaven was the real eighth form. The man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan realized it was already too late.
The previous two consecutive moves had shaken his blood and energy surging, leaving him powerless to defend. He roared, stepping on the void, his figure rapidly retreating, retreating into the blood sea. The blood sea churned and rapidly condensed, countless blood-colored symbols flowing, forming a giant blood sea shield.
"Pfft!"
The Blood Sea Giant Shield was actually sliced open by the Dragonbone Evil Moon's blade, and before the eighth form of Heaven-Opening, it was utterly powerless.
"How is this possible... the Golden-Horned Blood Clan man shouted in terror.
Long Chen sneered. He had used the Eighth Form of Heaven-Opening several times before, but all were fake, all to mask the shield-breaking ability of the Eighth Technique. This was the result.
Seeing that the blood sea shield could no longer resist, the Golden-Horned Blood Clan man hurriedly blocked the chains on his hands.
"Pfft!" As a result,
the chains and his arms shattered. Dragonbone Evil Moon sliced him diagonally in two with a single stroke, from his shoulder to his waist.
Long Chen landed his slash, and the Zuo Ting battle spear roared forward, stabbing straight at the brow of the Golden Horn Blood Clan man.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a large hand reached out from the sea of blood and shattered Long Chen's Thunder Battle Spear. Long Chen felt as if struck by electricity, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"A fourth-step expert in the Tongming Realm?"
Long Chen was shocked. A fourth-step Tongming Realm expert had actually attacked him through this sea of blood, saving the life of the Golden Horn Blood Clan man.
"Human brat, just you wait. Sooner or later, I'll behead you." The man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan roared, pushing open the sea of blood and retreating rapidly.
"I'm very busy and don't have time to wait for you."
Long Chen snorted coldly, his thunderous wings trembling behind him as he charged straight after the man from the Golden Horn Blood Clan.
"Long Chen is back."
Seeing Long Chen actually chase after them, Qu Jianying and the others' faces changed dramatically, and they cried out in shock.
