Chapter 5903: Divine Ring Cloud Sea Diagram
BOOM!
Heaven and earth trembled as Violet Blood Qi condensed into a towering heavenly pillar. After that, it slammed into the martial stage’s barrier, which rapidly swelled and became covered in cracks.
“What?!”
The experts of the Devil Eye Water Lily race cried out in disbelief—especially the elders. They knew just how sturdy this barrier was.
This wasn’t just any protective barrier. It had been specially activated to counter Liu Changtian’s command tablet and could even isolate a Sovereign Lord’s divine sense. Most importantly, it was said to be unbreakable by anyone below that realm.
However, when Long Chen released his aura, this “unbreakable” barrier instantly became covered in cracks, looking like it was on the verge of shattering.
“What is going on? Is Long Chen’s power really that great?” muttered one of the Undying race’s elders, visibly shaken.
Even Liu Xihua would need the full support of all the elders if she wanted to break this barrier, and they would have to pay an immense price.
But Long Chen had cracked it just by releasing his aura? That defied logic.
Liu Xihua suddenly exclaimed, “I see it now! This barrier is resistant to attacks from outside, but it’s far weaker when the attack comes from within. Lian Sanqiang thought it was impossible for a mere Heaven Saint to break it from the inside. But he underestimated Long Chen. We all did. This barrier cannot contain him.”Another elder slapped his leg in realization. He said, “No wonder Long Chen smiled like that when the barrier rose. He knew this thing was a joke to him.”
BOOM!
Just then, a majestic dragon cry rang out, and violet qi exploded like a volcano, blowing the barrier apart.
The moment it shattered, countless runes flew through the air. Wild shockwaves swept through the crowd, sending weaker spectators flying.
As the surrounding experts scrambled to shield themselves, the violet pillar of light spared into the sky, forming a massive vortex high above. The vortex spun slowly at first, then rapidly expanded—blanketing the entire Sea of Oblivion.
The very world was shaking.
“What?!”
The Undying race’s experts were completely stunned. They had seen Long Chen summon the Violet Dragon Battle Armor before, but never with this level of phenomenon.
As the violet vortex covered the sky, deep within the boundless void and starry sea, an ancient eye opened. The master of this eye sensed something.
“The human race’s comprehension skill really makes one envious. I didn’t even teach him that technique, yet he grasped it on his own. Is this truly fate?”
BOOM!
The whirlpool in the sky transformed into a rolling sea of clouds. Within it, a colossal violet dragon emerged—so vast that even the endless clouds looked like a mere washbasin compared to it.
The moment the divine dragon manifested, a sacred aura descended, causing countless souls to shudder.
Then, behind Long Chen, an eight-colored divine ring appeared. The sea of clouds poured into it, forming a cloud sea diagram within.
The violet dragon swam majestically within the diagram, and the sacred aura grew in intensity. Divine light flooded the sky around Long Chen, making him appear too holy to even look upon.
Standing there with his robes and hair billowing, Long Chen appeared unspeakably domineering. He gazed down at the stunned Yuanshan like a sacred dragon observing a pitiful insect.
“This is the dragon race’s power, not the human race’s!” roared Yuanshan stubbornly.
With a cold voice, Long Chen replied, “The human race is the head of the ten thousand races. Blessed by the heavens, we are born to comprehend all Daos and command all laws. Any power that can be controlled by the human race—is the human race’s power.”
Long Chen then took a step forward, his words echoing like thunder.
“In the same vein, this world gave birth to the ten thousand spirits—and so, it belongs to the ten thousand spirits. Any power that you can wield in this world belongs to you!”
Liu Xihua and the others were startled to hear such words.
The ten thousand spirits were born of the world, and the world existed for the ten thousand spirits. If they could control something, then why argue over who it originally belonged to?
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, darkness—there were endless attributes. The heavens never said only one race could master each path.
The Undying race clung to its old rules, believing they could only use vegetative divine abilities. Cultivating any other path was considered a betrayal to their ancestors.
But Long Chen had shattered that notion.
He brought them the Moon Flame, and to their astonishment, it was practically tailor-made for them. The willow tree—a Yin entity—resonated perfectly with the Moon Flame, a Yin flame. They had never dared imagine such a compatibility existed.
But now, they could.
Control of flame? That was just the beginning. According to Long Chen, if someone were born into this world, then anything in this world could belong to them.
If their mouth was big enough, if their stomach was hungry enough, they could consume as much as they wanted. After all, anything they could swallow was theirs.
The peerless divine arts of the dragon race? Long Chen was wielding them with ease, proving that his words weren’t mere bravado.
Liu Xihua and the other elders were all deeply shaken.
A door they had never dared to dream of… had just opened.
“The human race really is shameless! How can you say it's your own ability when you’re using the dragon race’s divine abilities?!” retorted Yuanshan.
Long Chen looked at him with disdain. “Luyao wielded a demonic beast’s bloodline—was that not shameless? Qifeng had a contract with a Lightning Blaze Spider, using its power to fight—was that not shameless? And you... you carry a pure Devil Eye bloodline, but your soul reeks of fiendish aura. You also contracted a powerful demonic beast. Did you think I wouldn’t notice?”
“You…”
Yuanshan froze in shock, as did everyone else from his side.
Other than Lian Sanqiang, no one was aware of this secret. How could Long Chen notice it?
The Undying race’s experts were also startled. If Yuanshan really had a contractual beast, then it could only be stronger than the Lightning Blaze Spider. That would be hard to deal with.
“In any case, if you want to build up strength, just do it openly,” Long Chen said calmly. “No need to stall with pointless shouting. I’ll give you plenty of time.”
Suddenly, a strange sound echoed from Yuanshan’s body—crack. It was as if something shattered.
His aura erupted, like a seal had been broken.
“Hahaha, foolish human, face your death! Have a taste of the Devil Lily Heaven Swallowing Technique’s second form!” shouted Yuanshan.
Yuanshan roared with glee as he launched forward. A surge of violent power erupted behind him. As he raced across the martial stage, a deep ravine appeared wherever he went.
Liu Qingyu and Liu Minghao were stunned.
The martial stage was so sturdy, and yet Yuanshan’s sheer speed and power left it scarred. Just how terrifying was he now?
BOOM!
A deafening explosion rang out as Yuanshan arrived before Long Chen. The ground caved in, forming a massive crater.
When the dust settled and the spectators saw the aftermath, their jaws dropped.
Inside the crater, Yuanshan was kneeling, with Long Chen’s foot planted firmly on his head. No matter how Yuanshan struggled, he couldn’t get up. That foot pressed down like the weight of an entire world.
Both friend and foe were shocked. Whatever had happened just now, it was too fast for them to see or sense.
Even Lian Sanqiang and Liu Xihua didn’t know what had happened. One flash of movement—and Yuanshan was crushed beneath Long Chen’s foot.
Liu Rujiao and the others should’ve been cheering. But they were too shocked to react.
They’d always known Long Chen was strong, but Yuanshan’s aura had just soared several fold. And even then, he was trampled.
This one move showed the huge gap between them.
Even in the second form of the Devil Lily Heaven Swallowing Technique, he was still an insect before Long Chen.
Yuanshan’s limbs trembled. Runes surged through his body as he channeled his power into the ground, trying to escape. The entire martial stage quaked, but he couldn’t move Long Chen’s foot.
“Before my previous breakthrough,” Long Chen said calmly, “you might’ve been qualified to exchange a few blows with me. But now that I’ve comprehended the Cloud Dragon Eight Forms, the Violet Dragon Battle Armor holds the power to refine heaven and earth. In front of me, you are simply a piece of trash. Hurry up and enter your ultimate state. That’s your only chance.”
Just like that, Long Chen casually kicked him, sending him flying into the sky.
“LONG CHEN! I’LL MAKE YOU SUFFER FOR AN ETERNITY!”
Yuanshan howled as his heaven veins turned into massive devil lilies. The entire world darkened beneath their bloom.
