Chapter 5055 Escaping From Death
BANG!
Long Chen’s palm blasted another Heavenly Chosen apart. The minute he got close to his target, the latter’s fate was set.
Long Chen had always been a close-range fighter. With the overwhelming power of the Sovereign Blood Seal, he dispatched the Netherdragon experts as easily as killing chickens. In fact, it was even simpler; killing chickens required plucking and bleeding, but against the Netherdragons, one palm was enough. He didn’t need a second strike.
Long Chen chased after them as best as he could, but they had scattered in every direction. In the end, he could only kill a few dozen more before they were all gone. By his count, he had eliminated eighty-seven, including a nine-star Doyen he had accidentally slain. The rest were mostly two-vein Heaven Saints or Heavenly Chosens.
This indiscriminate slaughter was refres.h.i.+ng for Long Chen. He didn’t know if it was due to the influence of the Sovereign blood, but executing these traitors made him feel incredible.
BOOM!
Just then, the void shattered. One of the three-vein Heaven Saints fighting Bai Yingxuan used a secret art to directly appear in front of Long Chen, enveloping him in a terrifying pressure. The elder’s palm smashed toward Long Chen’s head.
A terrifying sensation of death filled Long Chen’s heart. Just as this elder attacked, Long Chen took a step forward and raised his hand. Under the pressure of a three-vein Heaven Saint, even taking a single step was incredibly difficult. It felt as though his body was suddenly filled with lead, and his movements were slowed.
Despite that, Long Chen was able to slap the elder’s face. Fortunately, it was close enough for him to land the blow.
With an explosive sound, half of the three-vein Heaven Saint’s face shattered, and the bones beneath were exposed. Borrowing this reverse force, Long Chen shot back.
Originally, he was unable to move under a three-vein Heaven Saint’s pressure. But when he landed the slap, the restrictive effect lifted, and he shot back instantly.
BOOM!
Just as Long Chen fell back, the spot where he had been standing collapsed under the elder’s palm strike. A giant black hole appeared in the void, the force of the blow piercing heaven and earth and shattering the ten thousand Daos.
Seeing this scene, Long Chen couldn’t help but sweat. Had he not reacted fast enough, not even ten lives would have been enough to survive that palm. A three-vein Heaven Saint wasn’t an existence he could contend with.
At the same time, Long Chen was startled. He had unleashed his remaining dragon blood power in that slap, yet it wasn’t enough to inflict a severe injury on the elder.
Clearly, the Sovereign Blood Seal’s suppressive effect was limited against three-vein Heaven Saints. Unless he was in his peak condition and could concentrate all his dragon blood power into one attack, he couldn’t inflict a heavy injury on a three-vein Heaven Saint.
Just after this elder’s palm pierced the void, another hand silently appeared and struck the elder’s head, blasting it apart and killing him.
It was Bai Yingxuan. Looking at Long Chen worriedly, she asked, “Are you alright?!”
Just now, those two Netherdragon experts had witnessed Long Chen slaughtering their kin. They had never seen such a terrifying heavenly genius before. Realizing they couldn’t beat Bai Yingxuan, they steeled themselves and devised a desperate plan: one would sacrifice themselves so the other could attack Long Chen.
To drag down a heavenly genius of the white dragon race with limitless potential through their death would make their sacrifice worth it. As a result, one of them directly drew in all the energy of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest and detonated themselves.
The full power of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest was something that even Bai Yingxuan had to be wary of. Just as she retreated, she saw the other elder charge at Long Chen.
At that moment, she realized she had fallen for their scheme. She immediately rushed over but was still one step too late. Fortunately, Long Chen possessed the power to save himself. Otherwise, she would regret it for a lifetime.
“I’m fine, but a three-vein Heaven Saint really is terrifying,” said Long Chen quickly.
They truly were terrifying. Even the cheat-like Sovereign Blood Seal couldn’t do much against the three-vein Heaven Saints of the Netherdragon race. Had it been against another race, he wouldn’t even have had a chance to run.
This gave Long Chen a sense of alarm. He now knew the vast difference between him and three-vein Heaven Saints. In the future, he definitely couldn’t mess around if he encountered one, or this little life of his would be easily lost.
“It was my mistake. I’m truly sorry. Fortunately, the Dragon Sovereign has protected you!” Bai Yingxuan sighed.
“Senior really is amazing. You didn’t even need to use your full power, but the two of them were completely under your control,” praised Long Chen.
Bai Yingxuan was truly powerful. From the start, she had not used her full power. Without even using her three-vein manifestation, she could contend against those two elders.
Of course, that caused the two of them to despair and directly sacrifice themselves. Unfortunately for them, they failed to kill Long Chen even after throwing their lives away.
“Don’t be sarcastic. If they were under my control, that mistake wouldn’t have occurred.” Bai Yingxuan smiled bitterly.
“Isn’t it the same for me? I said that I would kill all of them if you blocked those two fellows, but I let many of them get away.” Long Chen shrugged somewhat helplessly.
Long Chen had originally thought this would be a b.l.o.o.d.y battle. He planned to first wipe out a few tough opponents before joining forces with Bai Yingxuan and the others to finish off the rest. However, the Sovereign Blood Seal gave him a pleasant surprise. It crushed them so quickly that it ruined the original plan, and there was no way to control the chaos.
“Let’s go. We shouldn’t stay here for too long. Their reinforcements will quickly come. If I were alone, I wouldn’t fear them. But we have our own mission, and we can’t waste our energy on them,” said Bai Yingxuan.
“Senior, please wait a moment. I’m going to clean up the battlefield.”
The ground was littered with powerful corpses, which were priceless treasures to Long Chen. How could he just leave them behind?
Seeing Long Chen gather the corpses, Bai Yingxuan frowned slightly. The dragon races normally wouldn’t touch each other’s corpses unless there was an immense grudge between them. It was one of the rules of the dragon race.
However, Long Chen wasn’t part of the dragon race, so she couldn’t bind him with those rules. In any case, the Netherdragon race were traitors, so they shouldn’t be treated as part of the dragon race either.
When Long Chen was finished, there was a pile of dragon corpses on the primal chaos s.p.a.ce’s black soil. His heart almost burst in excitement; this was definitely enough fertilizer.
After returning to their Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, the white dragon race continued onward. Then, in less than an hour, four Ten Thousand Dragon Nests whistled toward the empty battlefield.
“White dragon race, you are courting death!”
A furious roar rang out, filled with killing intent. However, Long Chen and the others had already left.
