Chapter 5713 Fighting Divine Emperors
BOOM!
The collision blew back Long Chen and Hou Tianwu’s father, spreading a violet-gold ripple in the surroundings.
“A Demon Emperor of the primal chaos era… and this is all you’ve got?” taunted Long Chen.
Long Chen’s Blood Qi churned violently, and his arm throbbed with numbness. But despite that, the power gap between them wasn’t as vast as he had expected from a Demon Emperor of the primal chaos era.
“Brat, you are courting death!”
Hou Tianwu’s father was livid. To be mocked by a mere Heaven Saint? He had never suffered such an insult.
Golden Blood Qi erupted from his body, and his Divine Emperor Crown trembled. Faint flames flickered within it, revealing the remnants of his once-great power.
“Time has stripped me of much of my strength. I possess only one-hundredth of my peak power! Even so, I am not someone a piece of trash can look down on!” Hou Tianwu’s father roared.
His aura surged, and the pressure of an Emperor intensified, suffocating Long Chen beneath its crushing weight. The humiliation burned hotter than his grief for his fallen son, fueling his fury.
Hou Tianwu’s father stomped on the void, shattering space itself. Enveloped in golden flames, he charged at Long Chen.
“Die!” Hou Tianwu’s father roared, his golden staff blazing with divine flames as it swung toward Long Chen with devastating might.
“If an ugly, old beast like you hasn’t died yet, why would I?” Long Chen sneered, meeting the attack head-on with Evilmoon.
The two exchanged blows at incredible speed, and each clash sent shockwaves rippling through space. In mere moments, they had exchanged dozens of strikes.
As they unleashed their strongest attacks, they shouted, their divine weapons colliding with an earth-shaking explosion.
BOOM!
The collision hurled them backward.
Just as Long Chen steadied himself, a trident descended from the heavens, radiating immense divine might.
The old crone of the sea whale race had entered the fray.
“Boss!” shouted Guo Ran.
“Don’t bother with me! Kill your own targets!” ordered Long Chen.
After forming a series of hand seals with his left hand, Long Chen extended his left palm. From it, a translucent shield materialized, one with a giant “Defend” character. As countless runes swirled around the character, primal chaos qi gathered within the shield.
BOOM!
The bone trident struck the runic shield. To the old crone’s astonishment, the shield merely quivered before nullifying her immense power. The attack simply disappeared like a clay ox entering the sea.
Before Long Chen could retaliate, Hou Tianwu’s father launched a sneak attack from behind.
“You truly are shameless. Then don’t blame me.”
Long Chen sneered as Evilmoon buzzed. His thirteen dragon veins quivered, and an unfamiliar yet mighty aura surged within him—he was merging his power with the old crone’s.
“Waning Moon Heaven Shaking Slash!”
A massive saber image tore through the sky, falling like a waterfall of stars. Guo Ran and the others instantly recalled the terrifying white-robed Long Chen’s attack.
The moment the saber descended, spacetime twisted violently.
BOOM!
Hou Tianwu’s father coughed blood as he was blasted backward, crashing through multiple mountains before vanishing beyond the horizon.
“Die!” cursed the fat old crone.
Furious that Long Chen had harnessed her power, the old crone opened her mouth, unleashing a black sword that streaked toward Long Chen’s head.
The blade sliced through space, severing Grand Dao runes. The void around Long Chen collapsed into a black hole.
But at the last moment, Long Chen twisted his body, narrowly dodging what would have been a lethal strike.
His heart pounded. That attack was terrifyingly fast. Thankfully, his combat experience and instinct had saved him—anyone else would have been struck dead instantly.
Using the momentum of his spin move, Long Chen launched a devastating kick and sent the old crone tumbling backward.
“Long Chen!”
A ferocious voice thundered through the battlefield, startling Long Chen.
A spear tore through the nine heavens, bringing a killing intent that terrified even the ten thousand Daos.
BOOM!
Caught off guard, Long Chen was sent flying. After that, he looked up.
“Wow, you are really persistent! You didn’t die?” mocked Long Chen.
Up in the sky was a blood-soaked Long Zaiye, his eyes ablaze with fury. Despite looking hideous with all his injuries, he still looked strong. His divine blood and thirteen heaven veins were still burning strongly. As he glared at Long Chen, his expression contorted with rage.
“I’m not dead, but your time is up!” shouted Long Zaiye.
After igniting his divine blood, he charged at Long Chen like a madman.
Back in the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm, Long Chen’s Dragon Meteor had nearly obliterated Long Zaiye and the others. But as they were about to be annihilated, the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm reached its limit first, and the laws collapsed, dispersing the Dragon Meteor’s power as well.
Still, Long Zaiye was caught in the midst of a crumbling world. Just as he thought that he would meet his end along with the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm, he ignited his core divine blood and escaped through a spatial gate just before the realm crumbled completely.
He barely managed to return to the Sovereign Emperor Heaven. However, the moment he sensed Long Chen’s aura, he charged over.
“After barely clinging to life, instead of cherishing it, you rush to your death? Very well. Since you want to die so badly, let’s see what it takes to kill you,” said Long Chen.
As Long Chen raised Evilmoon, his thirteen dragon veins unleashed a wave of violet flames. He stopped holding back.
After that, violet flames roared skyward, piercing the heavens themselves. Long Chen’s aura erupted like a volcanic inferno.
BOOM!
Evilmoon slashed down on the charging Long Zaiye, who coughed up blood, his disbelief painted across his face. How was Long Chen still in peak condition?
“Die!”
However, before Long Chen could follow up with his final attack, three figures launched an ambush on him. They were Netherdragon Tianfeng, Fantian De, and Li Changgeng. None of them had died; they had all escaped in the final moment.
The three of them moved in unison, surrounding Long Chen. Having just repelled Long Zaiye, Long Chen was momentarily exposed.
Realizing he had been used as bait, Long Zaiye seethed. These three had waited for him to create an opening. They were looking down on him.
On the other hand, Long Chen merely chuckled when he sensed them. Raising his left hand, he commanded, “Huo Linger, Lei Linger, don’t hold back! Give me your full power!”
Two blazing orbs appeared between Long Chen’s middle finger and thumb. The moment they appeared, a suffocating aura of destruction descended, causing heaven and earth to tremble in fear.
