Chapter 5218 Destroy Races and Sects
Holding the Sovereign jade, Long Chen punched an enormous hole into the void, causing endless dark energy to swirl within it. The spatial blades that should have existed within this void were obliterated by this punch.
Long Chen’s punch not only destroyed the void but also the laws of this dark world. Even the palace master was shocked by Long Chen’s power.
Long Chen was also taken aback. As he punched, the Sovereign jade in his hand warmed slightly, and a gentle current of energy flowed from it, amplifying the destructive force of his attack.
BOOM!
At that moment, the High Firmament Divine Sword clashed with the Brahma Divine Diagram again. The impact sent the Brahma Divine Diagram reeling. The images on it glowed, and the figure of Lord Brahma flickered.
“Where do you think you’re going?!” Long Chen roared, charging toward the Brahma Divine Diagram with the Sovereign jade in hand, intent on using its power to destroy the Brahma Divine Diagram.
Seeing this, Evilmoon and the Earth Cauldron shouted in unison, “Stop!”
Startled, Long Chen hastily paused. He had no idea why they were both so panicked, but just then, s.p.a.ce quivered, and the Brahma Divine Diagram vanished without a trace.
After the Brahma Divine Diagram disappeared, the experts of the various races completely lost their will to fight. Their leaders were all dead, so even if they ran, they didn’t need to worry about being punished.
“Kill!” The Dragonblood warriors roared and chased after their enemies, who were running away without orientation. This was the perfect opportunity to strike, and they didn’t hesitate.
The heavenly geniuses within the barrier also charged out, joining the Dragonblood warriors in pursuit.
As these people fled, the sea of lightning and flames grew violent, and Lei Linger and Huo Linger started their own slaughter. Wielding the lightning spear that Huang Wudao once used, Lei Linger began to pick off the half-step Human Emperors.
Lei Linger and Huo Linger were like tigers freed from a cage. With one blow, Lei Linger killed a half-step Human Emperor holding a flame sword. After picking up this flame element Human Emperor divine weapon, she tossed it to Huo Linger, and they instantly joined forces.
The sea of flame and lightning transformed into a barrier, slowing down the fleeing enemies and preventing them from using spatial transportation.
Despite their desperate attempts to escape, the enemies were trapped. The Dragonblood warriors descended upon them like wolves upon sheep. These once-powerful experts fell in droves, their blood raining down, forming a sea of blood on the battlefield.
The defeat was a landslide. The enemies had already lost the will to fight, their courage completely shattered by the Dragonblood Legion. Rather than the Dragonblood Legion, they should be called the Fiend Devil Legion.
“Kill! Brothers, if you can’t even claim a few heads at this time, what right do you have to call yourselves heavenly geniuses?!” shouted someone from the first academy.
This person had been utterly crushed by the Emperor pressure when he stepped out of the barrier earlier, forced to kneel helplessly. Hence, he was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with anger and resentment, having never suffered such humiliation before. At this moment, if he didn’t kill a few enemies, he would feel too ashamed to continue living. Many of his fellow disciples felt the same thing.
Thinking of how prideful they had been in their minor world, they found their old selves repulsive. They swore to become fearless experts like the Dragonblood warriors. Even if it was just for an instant, that would be enough. Even if they lost their lives, they wouldn’t regret it.
“Kill!”
The sullen heavenly geniuses charged forward like madmen. They attacked with reckless abandon, some even detonating their weapons upon contact. Others pounced on their enemies, using their teeth to rip out their throats.
The Dragonblood warriors had triggered their blood-crazed nature. Now, they were going through a metamorphosis. This battle had a profound impact on them, instantly transforming pampered princelings into fearless warriors.
Long Chen didn’t partic.i.p.ate in the pursuit. He was frustrated by the Brahma Divine Diagram’s escape. As he went to check on Bai s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s condition, a wave of pain suddenly washed over him. He went pale and nearly collapsed.
“Long Chen, what’s wrong?!” asked the palace master.
The palace master caught his arm, and his expression changed dramatically. He discovered that Long Chen’s meridians were riddled with holes and on the verge of collapse.
The palace master felt a wave of guilt, realizing that Long Chen had pushed himself beyond his limits. If the palace master hadn’t been caught by the Eight Domain Divine Diagram, Long Chen wouldn’t have suffered such terrifying injuries. Damage to the meridians was exceptionally serious; if not treated properly, Long Chen could become a cripple.
Only now did Long Chen realize the severity of his condition. It was no wonder Evilmoon and the Earth Cauldron had stopped him from attacking the Brahma Divine Diagram. His body couldn’t endure such an impact.
“Palace master, I’m fine. But what about you? You forcibly made a breakthrough inside the Brahma Divine Diagram. Are there going to be any side effects?” asked Long Chen. He wasn’t worried about his injuries, confident in his ability to recover. However, he was concerned about the palace master.
The palace master had been trapped in the Eight Domain Divine Diagram and suppressed by eight Human Emperors. Breaking through under such circ.u.mstances had to come at an immense price.
The palace master checked Long Chen’s body more thoroughly and sighed in relief when he saw that, although Long Chen’s meridians were badly damaged, they were still tough and showed no sign of collapse.
The palace master replied, “I’m fine. In the Eight Brahma Divine Diagram, I used half my power to resist their seal and the other half to compress my energy. When my power underwent a qualitative chance, I detonated it. I didn’t rely on external power to make this breakthrough, so there’s no problem.”
“That works? Wouldn’t that make you explode?” asked Long Chen, dumbfounded.
“This is a special divine ability of my barbarian dragon race. It’s enough for you to know this; don’t try to imitate it,” the palace master warned.
Long Chen nodded, knowing that he shouldn’t learn such a technique. After swallowing a medicinal pill to stabilize his condition, he looked around the battlefield. The battle was nearing its end. The sea of lightning and flames had become a ring, trapping the remaining enemies.
Most of the other enemies had already fled too far. The sea of lightning and flames was now focused on fully locking down this area. The Dragonblood warriors and the academy’s disciples, with Lei Linger and Huo Linger’s help, were slaughtering the ones caught inside the ring.
As for Guo Ran, he had positioned himself atop the barrier, using his crossbow to pick off fleeing experts like live targets. He specifically targeted the ones running the fastest to ensure none escaped.
“Guo Ran, pull back the troops!” Long Chen ordered.
“Pull back? What?” Guo Ran couldn’t believe his ears. “We can kill them all!”
“Let them go. We’ll follow them to their hives. If they hand over what we demand, we’ll leave it at that. If they don’t, we’ll annihilate their races and sects,” Long Chen said darkly.
Hearing that, Guo Ran quickly understood. Their boss was livid this time.
“Retreat!”
As Guo Ran’s shout echoed across the battlefield, the world-shaking battle finally came to an end.
