"This is the sacred land of the demon beast clan, not something you lowly humans can touch."
Countless powerful warriors of the demon beast clan saw Long Chen and his companion, their killing intent surging, and they charged forward wielding divine weapons.
"A sacred land of the demon beast clan?" What a ridiculous joke. Your billions of ancestors were killed here. To put it bluntly, this is just a graveyard, and you dare call it a sacred place? Long Chen burst out laughing at these words, full of mockery.
"Nonsense... A
supreme prodigy of the beast clan was furious, his wings trembling behind him. Suddenly, he pierced through tens of thousands of miles of space to Long Chen, his blood energy erupting. Wielding a long staff, he smashed it down at Long Chen's head. He hated Long Chen to the core, and with a single strike, he struck with full force.
"Clang!"
Long Chen drew his Minghong blade, blocking with one strike, but he used a feminine force. The moment it collided with the staff, Long Chen trembled three times, draining most of his strength. With a flick of the blade, the man couldn't retract his momentum and charged straight at Jiang Lei beside him.
"Pfft"
Jiang Lei was as ready as usual. Seeing the man charging, he swung his thunderous longsword and severed the man's head with one strike.
"Don't fight them head-on. Conserve your strength to avoid encountering super-strong opponents." Long Chen reminded him, and as he spoke, thunder wings appeared behind him like a meteor, rushing toward the weakest part of the encirclement.
"Boom boom boom... Long
Chen and Jiang Lei charged back and forth, not engaging in battle at all, and had consecutively killed several Supreme-level prodigies. The beast clan experts tried several times to surround Long Chen and Jiang Lei, but because they couldn't catch them because they couldn't catch them, they roared in anger.
As they pursued and killed them, they attracted the attention of countless powerful demon beast clans, and more and more beast experts began to join the encirclement army.
Originally, only tens of thousands were chasing the two men, but soon the number reached hundreds of thousands. After the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the number of people chasing them had reached millions.
Millions of powerful warriors engaged in a life-and-death chase across the Blood Sea of the Milky Way. They frantically surrounded and blocked Long Chen, but he suddenly slashed through the sky with a single blade, tearing through the encirclement and escaping with ease. The beast clan warriors cursed loudly in anger.
The Blood Sea of the Heavenly River is vast, yet Long Chen only dares to speed in a small area, afraid of attracting other demon beast experts. Otherwise, they'll snowball like a rolling snowball, growing bigger and bigger. It won't take long before they're exhausted.
But even so, the beast clan was growing larger, with more and more Supreme-level prodigies. Some Supreme-level prodigies were exceptionally gifted and possessed astonishing divine abilities, putting immense pressure on Long Chen and Jiang Lei. The restrictions increased, and breaking through became increasingly difficult.
While Long Chen was fiercely battling the beast clan experts, he also heard a loud roar in the distance. Clearly, the beast clan warriors were still fighting other experts, though it was unclear which clan they belonged to.
"Brother Long Chen, let's coordinate a bit more and strike the World-Destroying Fire Lotus!" Huo Ling'er transformed into a little fire dragon, climbed onto Long Chen's shoulder, and whispered in his ear.
"No, you haven't recovered yet. If things go wrong, you'll lose control again. And even if you don't, wiping them out all won't make much sense.
The World-Destroying Fire Lotus consumes a large amount of my soul and spiritual power. The tribulation is about to be crossed, and I must remain absolutely focused, without the slightest mistake. Long Chen said.
"Brother Long Chen, then I can use the World-Destroying Lightning!" Lei Ling'er also transformed into a thunder dragon, leaning on Long Chen's other shoulder and saying.
Long Chen couldn't help but laugh and cry. These two little guys were really fighting and fierce now, getting more and more combative.
"You can't do it either. Although the heavenly tribulation will start soon and the energy you've lost can be replenished, this place is too complicated. The strong are endless, and no one knows what might happen.
Moreover, the terrain here is special, and the laws of heaven are unpredictable. You two should keep your composure and behave—you'll definitely have a chance to show your skills. Long Chen said.
Hearing Long Chen say this, Lei Ling'er and Huo Ling'er stopped pestering him, but they also refused to retreat. They obediently lay on Long Chen's shoulder, watching him fight.
"Boom boom boom... Long
Chen and Jiang Lei fought back and forth under the pursuit and blockade of countless beast clan experts. Whenever their encirclement showed any loopholes, they would break through and kill some powerful opponents along the way.
The Divine Sovereign experts outside watched anxiously, shouting wildly and directing them on how to arrange the formation.
However, although the beast clan members have a strong sense of organization and often fight together, their fighting style is always one-on-one, with little coordination between them.
They couldn't deploy their troops like the humans did, so the millions of powerful warriors looked terrifying, but they were just a scattered mess. As long as Long Chen didn't fight them head-on, they couldn't inflict a fatal attack on him.
"Left side... Front ... Front ... I mentioned the front... So dumb, are you idiots? He's about to run from that direction again, hurry up and intercept him..." A Divine Sovereign realm expert shouted curses while directing the situation.
That Divine Sovereign realm expert was clearly an idiot. Long Chen moved extremely fast, turning nimbly, sometimes diving and sometimes darting upward. These people were chasing him, already dazed and disoriented.
When he spoke of left and right, he was speaking from his own perspective, but for the people on the battlefield, the direction was completely chaotic. If he didn't give orders, it would be fine, but once he did, these people would become like headless flies. Sometimes, their own people collided and chaos ensued.
"Shut your filthy mouth." A supreme-level prodigy finally couldn't hold back and cursed at the old man.
These people came from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Although they all belonged to the demon beast clan, they didn't know each other. Moreover, the prodigies were all arrogant. Even though that person had faults in commanding, they called them idiots. Naturally, these prodigies were furious.
"You..."
The Divine Venerable-level expert from the demon beast clan turned ashen with anger. If he weren't afraid to cross that boundary, he would have rushed in and beaten that man up.
"If you're not a Supreme-level expert, all of you, fall back. You don't need to intervene—get far away." A creature covered in golden scales roared in fury.
With his furious roar, sure enough, the ordinary beast clan experts all retreated. They couldn't keep up with the pace and lacked strength, so here they could only cause trouble. It was better to retreat altogether.
The ordinary demon beasts retreated like a tide, leaving hundreds of Supreme-level prodigies to attack Long Chen. This greatly increased the pressure on Long Chen and Jiang Lei.
"The boss can't take it anymore, there's no escape, we have to fight head-on." Jiang Lei was panting heavily, his expression somewhat grave.
With those people no longer in the way, these supreme-level prodigies could finally unleash their full power. Suddenly, they had nowhere to avoid or escape.
"Buzz"
Long Chen was about to speak when suddenly the Milky Way and Sea of Blood began to churn. At the same time, the Nine Heavens roared, and endless Dao runes poured down like a rain of light.
"The Milky Way's sea of blood is boiling. The time to cross the tribulation has come. Damn humans, let us witness how your frail body was reduced to ashes in the tribulation!"
The beast clan experts suddenly shouted excitedly. They roared, their auras surging, and the shackles were instantly broken through. In that instant, endless tribulation clouds began to gather in the heavens.
At that moment, Long Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the gloating expressions in the eyes of the beast clan experts around him, he smiled.
