Long Chen's entire body was covered in golden dragon scales. He finally formed the Golden Dragon Battle Body, but the newly formed scales were very tender and needed some time to harden.
Moreover, the tender dragon scales still cannot be branded with divine flames or circulate the power of the hundred-eight thousand stars to attach to them.
But even so, Long Chen felt a complete transformation. Even without the support of the Golden Dragon Battle Body, his flesh and blood could now control the power of the divine fire.
Previously, his physical body could only barely withstand the power of divine fire in the state of the Dragon Blood Battle Body, but now it was different. His physical strength was countless times stronger than before, and as the dragon blood flowed through his body, it was continuously growing stronger.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the nameplate at Long Chen's waist flashed rapidly, and at the same time, an alarm sounded from afar.
"Someone is attacking Lingxiao Academy."
Long Chen's expression changed. He took out a black robe and draped it over his body. Thunder wings swirled behind him, and he stepped on the void, speeding away like a bolt of lightning.
"You scumbags from Lingxiao Academy, prepare to die!"
Countless black-clad and masked experts poured into the outer gate of Lingxiao Academy from all directions.
The outer sect area instantly turned into ruins. Hundreds of Divine Lord Realm experts descended, shattered the barrier, and charged in.
Many outer disciples were shattered into dust before they could react. Screams and cries of fear echoed throughout the outer sect.
"Kill ...!"
A thunderous explosion echoed, and millions of black-clad warriors surged in like a tide. All were Level 4 experts, led by those Divine Lords in a frenzied slaughter.
The sudden change happened so suddenly—from the alarm sounding to the barrier shattering, it happened almost instantly. Clearly, the enemy was prepared.
"You audacious rascal, you stormed into my Lingxiao Academy—do you have a death wish?" Inside Lingxiao Academy, powerful figures were furious and charged out from the inner courtyard.
It turned out that after these experts entered the outer sect, they immediately destroyed all the teleportation arrays, and they actually knew the academy's teleportation array locations inside out.
"Hand over Long Chen, or else countless people at Lingxiao Academy will be implicated by him. No one else is to blame."
A Divine Lord realm expert shouted. Just as he finished shouting, the void suddenly trembled as a golden fist descended from the sky.
"Pfft"
The Divine Lord realm expert was blown apart by a punch, and Long Chen's figure appeared. The crowd cheered:
"It's Master Long Chen."
Long Chen appeared, both shocked and furious, his blood surging. He was familiar with the auras of many people here. From their cultivation fluctuations, he could tell they were all the powerful opponents at the Jiuzhou Conference.
Long Chen had slain so many Divine Lord-level experts and had a certain understanding of their cultivation techniques.
"Everyone retreat to the inner sect. The strong ones are in no hurry to fight; first protect the outer sect disciples as they withdraw."
Long Chen's voice echoed through the void. There were too many enemies, and the crowd was chaotic, making it impossible to unleash ultimate moves and accidentally injuring their own people. Therefore, protecting the outer sect disciple Li was the most important priority.
"What are you pretending? You caused all this, and now you're pretending to be the savior. You, Long Chen, are a disaster star. Everyone here was killed because of you." A Divine Lord realm expert sneered.
"Die!"
Long Chen was furious, his figure shooting toward the Divine Lord realm expert like a bolt of lightning.
"You want to be both a proud and honored person. You, Long Chen, are the most shameless person in this world. You shouldn't be living in this world." Facing Long Chen, the man sneered fearlessly, showing no intention of dodging.
"The ignorant are fearless; go to hell and repent." Long Chen sneered, and a black broadsword appeared in his right hand.
"Buzz!"
But Long Chen didn't use the broadsword. Instead, as he rushed up to the person, a thunderous spear appeared in his left hand, stabbing at the man, while the blade slashed toward the void on the other side.
With a loud explosion, the void shattered. Where Long Chen's blade had slashed, a blood-red dagger appeared. At the same time, a figure emerged from the void. Long Chen collided with the dagger, and his blade was instantly uncontrollable, sending him flying.
"Pfft"
At the same time, Long Chen's left hand pierced through the void with a thunderous spear, killing the once confident Divine Lord realm expert with a single spear.
"Do you think someone lurking nearby can save your life?" Long Chen snorted coldly, stepped sideways, grabbed the longsword that had been knocked away, and pointed it at the masked man: "
Bloodkill Hall's dogs, who gave you the courage to attack my Lingxiao Academy?"
No matter how exquisite that person's stealth technique was, Long Chen still saw through it. The sensing of the techniques of the Blood Slaughter Hall experts had already been deeply embedded in Long Chen's soul.
The Divine Lord realm expert deliberately lured Long Chen over, thinking he was hidden in midair and could kill Long Chen in one blow, but unfortunately, he miscalculated.
The man snorted coldly and said nothing. Suddenly, his entire body erupted with vital energy, and a divine statue appeared behind him. Amidst the thunderous roar, divine power surged, and the entire space seemed to freeze in an instant.
"First generation?"
Long Chen was startled—it was actually a first-generation Divine Lord Realm expert. He immediately thought of a possibility.
"Buzz"—
A divine ring appeared on Long Chen's back, the star map circulated, and at the same time, all 108,000 star fires within him ignited, slashing down with a single strike.
With a loud explosion, the void shattered, waves of energy overlapped, and Long Chen's arm trembled violently. This first-generation powerhouse of the Blood Killing Hall possessed such terrifying power.
After the strike, Long Chen's expression instantly grew serious. That person was a first-generation Divine Lord realm expert, worlds apart from ordinary Divine Lord experts. His attacks carried the power of the laws of the Heavenly Dao.
He had borrowed the power of heaven and earth to deal with Long Chen, and since Long Chen was still at the Divine Fire Realm, his realm was suppressed, which made the pressure on him even greater.
After Long Chen's slash, his Zuo Ting spear appeared, slashing behind him. With a loud explosion, another dagger appeared, shattering Long Chen's thunder spear and stabbing straight at his chest.
"Buzz!"
At that moment, the void behind Long Chen's left side trembled, and a dagger, like a snake's fang, silently stabbed toward him.
The first-generation Divine Lord Realm experts of the Blood Slaughter Hall were not just one, but three. Three had set traps and attacked Long Chen at the same time. Clearly, they were determined to win Long Chen.
Long Chen snorted coldly, swinging his long blade to block the most deadly blow. At the same time, a lotus pattern appeared on his left hand. He intended to block the enemy's strike head-on, trading injury for injury, life for life. With the chaotic space in his hands, as long as he survived one blow, he could recover instantly. With one of the three killed, dealing with them would be relatively easier.
"Sss
But before Long Chen could make a move, the void split open, and a golden battle sword slashed straight at one of them. The sharp sword energy sent chills down one's spine.
