With a loud "puff
," the thunder spear pierced through Long Chen's body in an instant. At that moment, all the powerful figures present were stunned—this turn of events happened too quickly.
"Boss!"
The Dragonblood warriors were terrified, yet the boss couldn't even block a single move.
Even Luo Changsheng, Yin Jiushang, and the others hadn't expected the attacks from the imperial clan experts to be so swift, impossible to resist.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, with a crisp sound, the imperial clan expert retreated. People were shocked to find that only half of the spear remained in Long Chen's body.
The half of the thunder spear inside Long Chen slowly melted and was absorbed by his body. Long Chen's wound was like a giant mouth, swallowing the spear completely.
Not only were those around shocked, even Long Chen himself was shocked. The moment he was shot, he thought he was finished, but he never expected that the power of thunder couldn't harm him.
The Red Dragon Battle Body he summoned was like a bloodthirsty beast, and the thunderous power of heaven and earth was nothing but delicious flesh and blood to it. If the imperial clan powerhouse hadn't stopped moving, the entire spear would have been swallowed by its body.
"So that's how it is. The killing will of the Red Dragon Battle Body has merged with yours, and every scale on your body is filled with endless resentment.
These resentments come from the beings you slain. Now that you are clad in armor and they have a place to rest, their resentment is ignited, and they begin to frantically absorb all the energy that can help them grow.
You need to be careful. If they kill you, they will never willingly obey you. When they become strong enough, they will devour your soul. "The Imperial Clan expert said.
The Ancestral Dragon of the Divine Might Imperial Clan, after a single probe, saw through the problem, and at the same time, he was secretly shocked.
The imperial clan's red dragons must undergo a trial of slaughter, and during the trial, they will also be tainted with resentment, but it absolutely does not affect the appearance or color of their scales.
Long Chen's Red Dragon Battle Armor had turned black red, its shape had changed, indicating that the beings Long Chen had slain were beyond calculation, and those who could bear resentment had to be at least of the same level as him.
He really wanted to ask how many beings Long Chen had killed, but even if he did, it wouldn't help, because from the Tianwu Continent to the Immortal Realm, Long Chen had fought countless battles, let alone how many lives he had slain.
"I'm not afraid. I, Long Chen, have acted with integrity all my life, never shameful before heaven, without shame before the land, outwardly without shame, and with a clear conscience within. I have always been fearless.
When they were alive, I slew them; even in death, I suppressed them. Want to devour their master? Their great wish ultimately could not be realized.
Heh, interesting—these vengeful spirits actually possess me? Does that mean they will follow me forever? Long Chen asked.
"That's right, until you die." The imperial clan expert said gravely.
"Hahaha, that's wonderful!" Long Chen heard the answer from the Imperial Clan powerhouse and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The imperial clan expert was stunned. If others knew he was haunted by vengeful spirits, even if not fearful, they would surely feel annoyed. Yet Long Chen was so happy.
"Why are you laughing?" The imperial clan powerhouse couldn't help but ask.
"Because this puts my mind at ease. If they are killed by me, their vengeful spirits will never disperse, never entering the underworld or reincarnation. In other words, as long as I don't die, they will never be reborn again, never able to harm anyone. Isn't that a good thing?"
If I could work harder, work harder, and kill more people like this, the whole world would sooner or later become a peaceful place, hahaha! Long Chen laughed heartily toward the sky, his laughter filled with delight.
Long Chen was genuinely excited, because the words of the imperial clan powerhouse gave him hope. In the past, Long Chen thought there were too many bad people in this world and that no matter how many times he tried, he couldn't finish them all.
But now he saw his goal: as long as he kept striving, one day he would kill all the evil people in this world, eradicating them at their root. How could he not be happy?
"Great benevolence and courage, no wonder you have won His Majesty's favor!"
The imperial clan expert nodded, then suddenly raised his broken spear, thunder trembling, and the spear returned to its original form.
"Time is running out, the power of the heavenly tribulation cannot last forever. Today, let's fight with all our might!"
"Boom!"
The void beneath the imperial clan expert's feet exploded, dragon roars rang out, spears whistling, and they aimed straight at Long Chen.
"Imperial Dragon Thrust"—
this time, the imperial clan expert's attack was slow, but the moment he thrust fiercely, the void for billions of miles twisted violently, forming a strange depression as if the world was about to collapse.
"Cloud Dragon Offering Claw" Facing
the strike of an imperial clan expert, Long Chen dared not be careless. His divine ring trembled behind him, and a blood-red dragon claw reached out, fiercely grabbing at the thunder spear.
"Boom!"
This was a world-shaking collision. The void exploded, the sky was torn apart, Long Chen and the imperial clan experts retreated simultaneously. The space behind them collapsed, forcibly slamming into a massive black hole—a scene utterly terrifying.
"That Nine Heavens Gate..."
Someone outside exclaimed in surprise. Only then did people realize that after Long Chen and the imperial clan experts exchanged a strike, the distant spatial gate trembled and became much clearer.
"Could this person be the true Child of Destiny?"
The faces of the powerful figures in the heavenly tribulation changed dramatically. When they looked at the imperial clan experts, a look of understanding appeared in their eyes.
Previously, the Nine Heavens Gate was only faintly visible, but with the appearance of the imperial clan's powerhouses, the Nine Heavens Gate began to become active. Now, with their strike exploding, the Nine Heavens Gate had clearly become clear.
"So he is the true Son of the Nine Heavens. Whoever can defeat him will open the Gate of Nine Heavens and become the new Son of the Nine Heavens." Luo Changsheng shouted loudly. At that moment, everyone inside the heavenly tribulation simultaneously turned to look at the imperial clan powerhouse, their eyes shining with greed.
"We absolutely cannot let Long Chen defeat him. Otherwise, with Jiutian's recognition, Long Chen will become immortal and coexist with Jiutian." With a sharp shout, Luo Changsheng wielded the Nine-Ring Battle Blade and charged first at the Imperial Clan powerhouse.
"Get lost! What is the Son of the Nine Heavens? How could the great dragon clan be the descendants of the Nine Heavens? You are desecrating the great dragon clan! Seeing
Luo Changsheng rush in, the imperial clan experts were furious. These people had called him the Son of the Nine Heavens, which made him furious.
It should be known that the dragon clan has always disliked the constraints of the Heavenly Dao, especially the True Dragon Clan, whose goal is to break free from the constraints of the Heavenly Dao and roam beyond the nine heavens. Proud as they are, how could they acknowledge heaven as their father?
"Boom!"
The imperial clan expert swung his thunderous spear, producing a thunderous explosion as endless thunder poured down. Luo Changsheng was struck by the spear, coughing up blood and flying backward.
"Rumble..."
At that moment, the other powerful figures within the tribulation charged at the Imperial Clan experts like madmen. They discovered that after Luo Changsheng clashed head-on with the Imperial Clan experts, his entire body was enveloped in thunder, and he had actually absorbed part of the thunder's power from the Imperial Clan experts.
Seeing this, they immediately understood: who could become the Child of Destiny depended on how much thunderous power they could receive from the imperial clan experts.
The powerful warriors inside the "Kill"
heavenly tribulation instantly reddened with emotion, unleashing their strongest momentum and charging at the imperial clan experts.
