Chapter 5914 Fleeing For Life
Long Chen had thought that once they escaped the Brahma Divine Diagram, they would be free to run. But as soon as they broke through the barrier, he was struck dumb.
Only endless darkness awaited them outside.
The sky was completely filled with a tide of devil creatures—so many that even Long Chen’s divine sense couldn’t find their end.
And most terrifying of all, these were no ordinary devil creatures. Each one of them was a Devil Emperor.
Even Long Chen felt a chill run down his spine. The hope he had instantly turned into despair.
But there was no going back. If they wanted to live, there was only one path left—to charge forward.
“Liu Ruyan, Liu Minghao, Liu Qingyu, Liu Qingshan, break out of this enclosure from four different directions! No matter what, no one is allowed to turn back!” roared Long Chen.
Before heading into the Sea of Oblivion, he had split them into small teams in preparation for a group battle. There had been no time to teach them intricate formations, but at least they had some organization.
Now, the four top experts of the Undying race would each lead a group in an attempt to break through the encirclement. It was a risky and taboo strategy—splitting their power meant they could be crushed one by one.
However, there was no way around it.
If any of the three supreme experts trapped inside were to break free, and they stayed together, they would all be wiped out.
At least by scattering, someone might survive. As long as even one of them lived, the Undying race would not be completely exterminated.
“Kill!” Liu Minghao roared.
His normally calm demeanor was shattered after witnessing so many seniors fall. With a cry of rage, he ignited his soul essence and unleashed a World Extermination Flame Lotus.
“Long Chen...” muttered Liu Ruyan, her face drenched in tears.
She didn’t know if she would survive this battle—or if Long Chen would. Also, would her father and mother be alright?
If they were fated to die here, she would rather die together with Long Chen. She couldn’t survive alone while everyone she loved was gone.
“Run!”
Long Chen’s furious roar shook Liu Ruyan from her emotions.
Long Chen couldn’t follow any of the groups. After all, that woman—Long Can—would never let him go. Whoever he went with would only be dragged to death along with him.
“Long Chen...”
Biting her lip until it bled, Liu Ruyan gripped an emerald gemstone. It was the Undying race’s greatest treasure, the Undying Eye, which was entrusted to her by Liu Changtian.
Tears blurred her vision, but she turned away without another glance and charged forward, leading her group of Undying race experts.
Liu Qingyu and Liu Qingshan each led another group, splitting the young disciples among them.
There was no time for them to grieve or be angry. Right now, their only duty was to charge forward—to protect even a single seed of hope for the Undying race’s future.
They had no idea if they would live to see tomorrow’s sun. All they could do was risk their lives. As for the results, no one knew.
“Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Source!” Long Chen roared, and the Sun Flame and Moon Flame erupted from him.
The Golden Crows and Jade Rabbits within the primal chaos space instantly vanished, while the Moon Trees and Fusang Trees withered away at a visible rate.
This was Long Chen’s first time almost destroying the foundation of the Sun Flame and Moon Flame to unleash their greatest power.
An enormous flame lotus bloomed, engulfing both friend and foe alike. Space itself ignited.
Countless devil creatures were burning. Even Devil Emperors couldn’t endure these flames and screamed in agony.
As for the Undying race’s experts, with the protection of the Sovereign sprouts and their Undying power, they were mostly unaffected.
Taking advantage of this opening, the groups fled in all directions.
“Long Chen...” muttered Chu Yao.
Tears welled up in Chu Yao’s eyes. She knew Long Chen was buying them a chance to escape... he would stay behind alone.
Compared to the endless devil creatures, Long Chen and the others were like a tiny boat on top of a stormy sea. With that attack, they had been pushed far, while the center of the battlefield was empty.
“Seven Supreme Blood Ignition, Ten Thousand Swords Fly!”
While the flames still raged, Long Chen formed hand seals. Behind him, thirteen seven-colored heaven veins ignited.
Millions of swords materialized, turning into a rain of rainbow-colored death scythes.
Long Chen was going all-out. He had merged the Cloud Dragon Eight Forms with what his father taught him. As a result, he managed to ignite all his seven-color Supreme Blood, managing to unleash the most devastating attack he had ever unleashed to date.
Those swords pierced through the flames, slicing through these devil creatures and killing them.
Although these Devil Emperor creatures were terrifying, after undergoing the baptism of the Moon Flame and Sun flame, their bodies were charred and damaged. So, the seven-color swords flying through the air instantly ended their lives.
Long Chen deliberately avoided Liu Ruyan’s group. Wherever the swords swept past, the devil creatures collapsed like falling dominos, lightening the pressure on the fleeing Undying race experts.
“Take care of yourselves. This is all I can do for you...” Long Chen prayed as he watched Liu Ruyan and Chu Yao vanish into the distance.
As expected, the moment he unleashed these two great attacks, a giant hand ripped through the sky. It extended from the space still frozen by the ancestral tree’s giant willow leaves.
Heaven and earth shuddered in front of this hand. Then, Long Chen sensed the space around him on the verge of exploding.
Long Can had made her move!
The fact that she could act freely meant that Liu Xihua and Liu Changtian were being completely suppressed by the other two supreme experts.
In front of an expert on this level, even Long Chen didn’t dare to take the attack head-on.
He extended a finger, channeling the last remnants of his seven-color Supreme Blood into an arrow.
BANG!
This arrow directly exploded like it was a mosquito striking a raging bull.
However, the impact still managed to slightly weaken the frozen space. That was the opportunity Long Chen had been waiting for.
In an instant, he vanished.
The palm smashed into the space he had stood at. A massive handprint spread out, rumbling and expanding. Space itself collapsed, forming a giant black hole.
This was a massive gap in power. No matter how strong he was, he couldn’t block an attack containing Sovereign laws.
“The Jiuli bloodline? What relationship do you have with the Jiuli Long clan?”
Long Can’s voice rang out, tinged with the slightest surprise.
