"Whoosh!" Long Chen's
thunderous wings trembled behind him, the void tore open, and like a meteor, he sped away with his long tail.
"The speed of the Thunder Wings is ultimately slower than the Kunpeng Wings. Unfortunately, the Kunpeng wings have already been washed out. If there's a chance in the future, I'll have to find a way to get a pair, otherwise it's inconvenient to chase people."
Long Chen sped at full speed, his speed pushed to the limit, but he kept chasing farther and farther away. If it weren't for Lei Ling'er's locking on, he would have lost track long ago.
Because the world had just been ravaged by a heavenly tribulation, the space was extremely unstable and couldn't use a directional teleportation array, so Long Chen could only obediently pursue all the way.
Along the way, Long Chen saw countless powerful figures roaring and wailing. They all shouted and cursed loudly in the direction Yan Tianhua had left, but there was nothing they could do.
These people were already stunned. After all, with the tribulation taken away, no one could quickly calm down. The reason Long Chen immediately thought of finding someone to ride the tribulation was because he was an outsider. If his tribulation were taken, he wouldn't be able to calm down immediately.
Long Chen chased relentlessly for three days and nights, until he suddenly realized the world here had changed—endless tribulation clouds had shrouded the sky.
The tribulation cloud slowly moved in one direction. Ahead lay a massive whirlpool. Long Chen had been running beneath the vortex for a whole day before he could vaguely see its center.
"There really is a conspiracy,"
Long Chen saw divine light trembling in the core area of the vortex, as if stars were twinkling. This was a sign that thunder was gathering power during the heavenly tribulation. Clearly, someone in that area had already begun preparing to undergo the tribulation, and there was more than one person undergoing the tribulation.
Long Chen continued to speed forward. As the distance closed, he finally saw hundreds of light orbs at the center of the vortex. These orbs looked as small as sesame seeds within the massive tribulation cloud.
But in reality, these Heavenly Tribulation Cloud Clusters were several times larger than those of the Dragonblood Warriors.
These orbs of tribulation cloud light swirled within the vortex, rapidly absorbing the vortex's power and continuously strengthening themselves.
The distance closed again. Long Chen saw that within each cluster of tribulation cloud light, there was a figure standing. In one cluster, besides one figure, there was also a white bone warhorse and a war chariot.
"It's him."
Long Chen was startled and immediately recognized him. This was the same person who had rushed in front of him when entering the Phantom Spirit Realm passage, only to be forcibly pulled back. This guy had an X-shaped scar on his face and carried a crimson heavy sword on his back, making him very easy to recognize.
This person was undergoing tribulation, not only himself, but also the white bone warhorse and bronze chariot were in the heavenly tribulation. Could they be going through tribulation with him too?
When Long Chen approached the center of the vortex, he found countless powerful figures already gathered around. They were scattered around the outskirts, with a strange formation beneath their feet, protected by a barrier.
"Just watching the match?" No, they might be together with these tribulation crossers, specifically to protect them. "Long Chen noticed that all the experts inside these barriers had already completed their tribulation and advanced to the Divine Lord Realm.
These Divine Sovereign beings came from all races, forming a massive encirclement that surrounded the core area of the vortex. The scene was extraordinarily spectacular.
When Long Chen rushed here alone, he immediately drew countless gazes.
"Where did this idiot come from? Are you looking for trouble?"
Among the beings watching below, someone shouted coldly.
"Humans, you really are foolish. Is a place like this even yours to come to?" One demon clan expert deliberately raised his voice and sneered.
Among the spectators were some human warriors, clearly saying this on purpose for the human race.
"Idiot, do you know who he is? And you shamelessly talk nonsense. "Among the humans, someone sneered in retaliation. Clearly, he recognized Long Chen's identity.
"How ridiculous. Is there really any other human worth getting to know among us? Among your humans, those few who stood in the heavenly tribulation—we can't even be bothered to recognize them. What is this thing? A powerful member of the demon race mocked.
"Truly ignorant and foolish. You don't even recognize Long Chen, the world's number one academy and the greatest prodigy of our era. Are you not only blind, but also deaf?" Have you never heard of Long Chen's reputation? "A human powerhouse said.
"What number one in the world? Nonsense, your human race is nothing but bragging. The demon clan expert sneered.
"He's not only the top young expert of Lingxiao Academy, but also the top expert of the human race. You bunch of rats, in front of him, can only kneel and prostrate."
That human powerhouse was frantically boasting about Long Chen. At first, Long Chen thought this person was his admirer.
But as he spoke, the tone changed. This was obvious flattery, trying to divert everyone's attention to him. "Number One Under Heaven" is the most taboo term in the cultivation world, and this guy's intentions were rather malicious.
Long Chen was also highly skilled and bold. Even though he knew something was wrong here, he still charged forward. When he flew past the onlookers and stepped into the center of the vortex, it finally caught the attention of the powerful figures in the orbs.
"Long Chen"
The powerful figures among those light orbs had been quietly resting with their eyes closed, waiting quietly for the arrival of the heavenly tribulation. But when Long Chen appeared, they sensed it. When they saw Long Chen's face clearly, several voices instantly called out his name.
The spectators outside were shocked, and even the human powerhouse who had been boasting about Long Chen with ill intentions was startled—someone here really knew Long Chen.
Those who called Long Chen's name were all gritting their teeth, their voices tinged with blood, as if there was an irreconcilable feud between them.
"Wow, so many acquaintances!"
Sensing the intense killing intent, Long Chen unexpectedly noticed a familiar aura emanating from many orbs of light.
"Long Chen, you damn bastard, go to hell!"
A furious voice roared, and a divine light shot out from the tribulation cloud cluster. It was a thunderous sword, wielding the power of the heavenly tribulation, roaring and exploding, with overwhelming thunder.
This strike wasn't fatal enough, but it had a fatal flaw: once taken, it would be locked onto by the heavenly tribulation. Even if you didn't want to undergo the tribulation, you had to follow along.
The person who acted was none other than Yu Zihao, who had been swindled out of countless rare medicines by Long Chen, nearly lost everything, gained nothing, and was slapped in the face.
This proud and ambitious Brahma disciple's eyes instantly turned red when he saw Long Chen, looking as if he wished he could devour Long Chen's flesh alive.
Faced with a thunderous strike, many thought Long Chen would choose to dodge, but to their surprise, Long Chen simply waved his hand.
With a loud explosion, the thunderous sword was shattered by Long Chen's palm.
"You guys really know how to have fun. Take me along!" A smile appeared on Long Chen's face.
