Chapter 6124 Slaughter
The death of that Kunpeng expert shocked everyone.
All eyes turned toward the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey expert, whose earlier taunt now seemed like a death sentence.
He paled and hastily raised both hands.
“It wasn’t me!” he shouted.
Though Human Emperor Pills were tempting, no one was foolish enough to spark open war over them. There was no way this monkey would be so rash as to kill that Kunpeng expert here.
The factions were simply posturing, bluffing for a bigger cut of the spoils. No one wanted real bloodshed between the races.
“Die!”
A furious roar split the sky, and killing intent surged, casting a dark pall over the heavens.
Then—the petals fell.
Black flower petals rained down, leaving razor-thin tails behind them. The trails were wounds in the very fabric of space.
After that, ear-piercing sounds erupted like the call of the grim reaper.
“What?!”
Those experts were shocked and hastily took out their divine weapons.
But before Evilmoon, they were mere lambs awaiting slaughter. With every soul it reaped, its power only grew stronger. The blood it drank became its fuel.
“Bastard, it was you! Get out here!” roared the leader of the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkeys.
He raised an imposing Sovereign shield, shimmering with a golden barrier. It was one of the few defenses strong enough to block the incoming petals.
But as he scanned for the unseen attacker, a starlit fist slammed into the shield.
CRACK!
Blood sprayed from his mouth as the shockwave tore the shield from his grasp.
Long Chen caught the shield mid-air. Even at a glance, he could tell—it was forged from rare materials. A genuine treasure.
The leader of the monkeys shouted, “Who are you?! How dare you—”
But the moment he saw Long Chen’s face, his heart turned ice-cold.
“Die.”
Astral energy exploded.
The monkey expert let out a desperate cry and summoned a golden rod, channeling all his power into a final defense.
But it was futile.
In the next breath—he exploded, reduced to blood and bone.
Although this monkey had reached the mid-stage Human Emperor realm, in front of Long Chen, he was just an ant.
Meanwhile, Evilmoon’s petals tore through the rest of the enemies. Within moments, the battlefield was deathly still.
The original devil race experts had long since accepted their fates. Yet now, they stood in stunned silence, staring at the black-robed man who had cut down their executioners like wheat.
“Where is Xiaoqian?” asked Long Chen.
“You...”
This group became vigilant when they heard Long Chen ask about their sacred daughter. Was this a trap?
But Long Chen quickly realized their concern and rephrased, “Is she safe?”
A second Heavenstage Sovereign Lord nodded cautiously. “The sacred daughter is still safe—for now.”
Only then did Long Chen let out a breath. He erased the item-spirit of the golden shield and handed it to that expert.
“Help me inform Xiaoqian. Say that Long Chen is here...”
But before he could finish—
A wave of terrifying Sovereign pressure descended. Clearly, the bloodshed had drawn the attention of more third Heavenstage Sovereign Lords.
“Go!”
Long Chen immediately flew off toward this terrifying aura.
“He... he is Long Chen?”
“The peerless heavenly genius of the human race? The one who challenged the ten thousand races on his own?”
“He knows our sacred daughter? How come I’ve never heard of that?”
The original devil race’s experts were baffled. Their sacred daughter was the hope of their entire lineage. Even if they all died, they would never reveal her location. Moreover, why would the greatest heavenly genius of the human race save them?
They still couldn’t trust him, but they couldn’t ignore what they had just seen either.
“Send word to the sacred daughter immediately! We’ll find out soon enough. Move—before we’re caught in the crossfire!”
Without hesitation, the elder acted decisively. As long as they didn’t immediately go straight to where the sacred daughter was, then it wouldn’t implicate her.
Just then, an explosion shook the land, and a pillar of astral light soared into the heavens, illuminating the world.
Seeing that, the original devil race’s experts were horrified. Now, they knew that Long Chen was truly powerful.
Moments later, another Sovereign aura surged into existence. More third Heavenstage Sovereigns were coming.
“Quick!”
The elder gritted his teeth and fled with his people.
...
“Gate of Life—Open!”
Long Chen’s roar shook the heavens, and his killing intent was fully unleashed. He looked like a battle god of the starry sky.
His fist collided with a golden rod.
The impact blew the natural laws apart, and a ripple of death spread, flattening mountains and turning rivers to dust.
“How is this possible?!”
An elder covered in golden fur stared in shock at Long Chen.
He was a third Heavenstage Sovereign Lord of the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race, wielding a fierce golden rod forged in the primal chaos era.
And yet... he was losing ground to a mere early-stage Human Emperor?
“One star, Star Fall!”
Long Chen’s voice echoed like divine thunder.
Astral energy surged into his fist as the power of the Life Gate poured into his body. Now, he could wield the nine star line’s divine arts without restraint.
This punch carried the might to shatter gods and crush devils.
“I don’t care if you’re Long Chen or the number one expert of the human race—you’ll die here!”
The Sovereign Lord bellowed, his fury igniting all three Sovereign bodies. His rod became a golden pillar of heaven, crashing down with the might to pulverize mountains.
“Golden Monkey Heaven-Crushing Rod!”
BOOM!
Starlit fist met golden pillar.
Long Chen grunted and was blasted back—his arm torn and mangled, blood spraying into the wind.
But across from him...
The Sovereign Lord staggered, coughing blood. He stared at his golden rod in terror.
Cracks were spreading across it.
BOOM!
The ancient rod—a weapon of slaughter from the primal chaos era—shattered into dust.
It had been destroyed by a single blow from a Human Emperor.
