Chapter 5092 Opening
“It’s finally starting!” exclaimed Long Chen.
When Long Chen heard that the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain was about to open, his eyes lit up. On the other hand, Bai Yingxue noticed that Long Chen seemed weary, so she couldn’t help but feel worried. She lightly rebuked him, “What were you doing these past few days? We’re about to enter the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain! You really make people worry about you.”
The Heavenly Flame Devil Domain was filled with dangers, and everyone had to contend with countless compet.i.tors. However, while others were honing their strength, Long Chen seemed to be treating it flippantly.
“I’m fine. Give me a few hours, and I’ll recover. I don’t believe they’ll let us directly enter once the gates open,” said Long Chen, consuming a medicinal pill as he walked out.
“Hm? If the gates open, why won’t they let us through?” asked Bai Yingxue.
“Ah true, you don’t understand this kind of thing. They’ll definitely spout a bunch of nonsense before they let us through. Overall, there will be a ma.s.s of posturing and ceremonies. That’ll be more than enough time for me to recover to my peak,” answered Long Chen with a knowing smile.
At this moment, Feng You and Hu Xiaoyu came over, their auras completely different. Feng You, in particular, was in the midst of merging with the phoenix marrow. A trace of the phoenix’s might emanated from her, indicating a significant rise in her combat power.
Once they entered the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain and harnessed the power of the Heavenly Flames to temper their bodies, along with the tempering from heavenly tribulation, their strength would reach a frightening level.
Meanwhile, the white dragon race’s experts gathered, all in top condition with blazing fighting spirits. Long Chen saw a determined resolve in their eyes—a readiness to face death.
Long Chen sighed. This was the true dragon race. They might not appear arrogant, but they could not be lacking an unyielding character. Only with such spirit could they stand tall and face death head-on, never bowing to others for mere benefits.
The white dragon race had dozens of other Heavenly Chosen as well, all clearly ready to be sacrifices.
“Warriors of the white dragon race, you are the pride of the entire dragon race. We will await your triumphant return here!” said Bai Yingxuan. She and the elders of the white dragon race stood on top of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, overlooking them.
Their eyes were filled with encouragement and reluctance. After all, the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain was exceptionally dangerous, and beyond that, they had to face countless powerful races inside. The threats from the other dragon races alone could result in countless casualties among them.
However, this was unavoidable. The white dragon race had their own mission. As crisis descended, someone had to stand up to ring the bell for all to hear. For that, they were willing to sacrifice their lives.
“Senior, don’t worry. I will protect them with all my power,” declared Long Chen. He looked at Bai Yingxuan and patted his chest.
Bai Yingxuan nodded. With Long Chen present, she was much more at ease. She also implored Long Chen to be careful.
Under Bai Yingxuan and the others’ watchful eyes, Bai Yingxue led the disciples in bowing to bid the elders farewell. They then grandly walked toward Glacial Heaven City.
As the white dragon race stepped out of their domain, countless roars shook the land around them. The other dragon races were also carrying out their own farewell ceremonies, which were quite grand. One roar after another rang out, as if they had injected themselves with chicken blood.
In comparison, the white dragon race seemed low-key. As several dragon armies moved out at the same time, the white dragon race appeared weaker by comparison. However, the members of the white dragon race were all elite experts. Their powerful auras ensured that no one was foolish enough to provoke them.
The white dragon race’s army was led by Long Chen and Bai Yingxue. Holding the flame staff, Long Chen appeared incredibly arrogant with flames swirling around him.
All the dragon experts here were well-informed. They knew that Long Chen had clashed with Huang Wudao on the Glacial Heaven Plaza and had even withstood the pressure of a Human Emperor, proving that he was not someone to be provoked lightly.
Before this, quite a few dragon races looked down on the white dragon race and wanted to bully them to show off. But after Long Chen’s display, they were too chicken to try anything. Although no one knew exactly how strong Huang Wudao was, they were well aware of the might of a Human Emperor. Hence, Long Chen’s audacity to challenge a Human Emperor had made a lasting impression.
Among the dragon races, only the Netherdragon race dared to look down on the white dragon race, while the others kept their distance.
Due to the ma.s.sive number of experts moving at this time, there was no way to use transportation formations for all of them. They directly flew into Glacial Heaven City.
Over a thousand dragon race armies whistled through the air. It was a stunning sight that made Long Chen’s blood heat up. However, at this moment, black qi filled the sky as an army approached from the rear—it was the Netherdragon race.
With the white dragon race at the front, the other dragon races didn’t dare to pa.s.s them. However, when the Netherdragon race saw them, they directly charged to the front.
Netherdragon Wushang led the Netherdragon race’s experts, their numbers over ten times greater than those of the white dragon race. With thousands of Heavenly Chosen, their collective power was undoubtedly enough to crush the white dragon race.
After Netherdragon Wushang caught up, he looked down on Long Chen and Bai Yingxue with a sneer. “Bai Dale, you look very pale. Are you about to kick the bucket?”
“f.u.c.k off. Isn’t it all because of your Netherdragon race?!” cursed Long Chen.
Netherdragon Wushang laughed. “You are a dead man. Naturally, you have death qi swirling around you. What does it have to do with the Netherdragon race?”
“Bulls.h.i.+t! The three dragons I bought were rotten! I’ve been having diarrhea ever since I finished the soup! How can you say it has nothing to do with you?!” retorted Long Chen.
“You...!” Netherdragon Wushang almost exploded as Long Chen’s words accurately struck right where it hurt.
Due to the dragon corpses incident, the Netherdragon race’s hatred for Long Chen had solidified. They wanted to tear the flesh off his bones. Now that Long Chen brought it up again, they looked ready to start a war right this instant.
Long Chen ignored their furious gazes, knowing that they wouldn’t dare to fight. After all, they were about to enter the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain.
“Just you wait. Only one of our races will leave the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain alive!” shouted Netherdragon Wushang.
With that, Netherdragon Wushang led the Netherdragon race’s experts away, not daring to keep flying alongside Long Chen for fear he would lose control.
“If you say such a thing, your whole race might be completely annihilated,” Long Chen said coldly, smiling as he watched Netherdragon Wushang leave.
