Chapter 6419 Black Rock Heaven Swallowing Python
When Long Chen led the group out of the Sovereign Dragon Divine Nest, Xi Yuanqing and the others were shocked to see an enormous city floating before them.
“There are cities in the heaven region’s battlefield?” asked Xi Yuanqing.
“It’s not a city. It’s a mobile fortress,” corrected Long Chen.
Long Chen’s divine sense swept across the fortress, probing for those who dared to attack the Sovereign Dragon Divine Nest.
A group of scaled experts with incredibly gloomy auras stood atop the walls of the fortress. They had detected the aura of the Sovereign Dragon Divine Nest and intercepted it as it passed through an unstable space channel. Since the nest’s speed was not that fast, they successfully caught up to it.
“I don’t care which branch of the dragon race you belong to! Hand over the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, and we might spare your—”
When Long Chen and the others stepped out, this person swallowed the rest of his words.
“Long Chen! It’s Long Chen, the fellow who broke the scales!”
“This is big! Quick, wake up the young master!”
“No need. Who cares if it’s Long Chen? He doesn’t seem that tough. I’ll deal with him!”
One of their experts with 999 Sovereign flames flew out of the city. Standing in front of it, he shouted, “Long Chen! I heard you’re very wild, but before my Black Rock Heaven Swallowing Python race, you’re only fit to kneel! If you don’t accept it, come and fight me—Mo Chen!”
“Courting death!”
One of Long Chen’s subordinates, also a 999 Sovereign flame expert, flared with killing intent and was about to rush out when Xi Yuanqing grabbed him by the arm.
“Are you an idiot?” Xi Yuanqing barked. “He’s standing in front of the city gates, still within the fortress’s field! He can use its power. If you charge in, you’ll die before you even touch him! Did you leave your brains behind when you got stronger? Where’s your perception?”
Xi Yuanqing’s scolding instantly woke this expert up from his anger. It was true, during this time, their power had risen too quickly, causing their egos to grow as well. In their arrogance, they had neglected caution and awareness.
Quite a few of them lowered their heads in shame, realizing they had almost made the same mistake. Fortunately, they were a bit slower, or they would be the ones getting scolded.
Meanwhile, Long Chen ignored the provocation. His gaze remained fixed on the mobile fortress as he probed it carefully.
“Senior,” he asked in his mind, “this thing should be useful to you, right?”
The Earth Cauldron’s calm voice echoed in his mind. “Yes. It is useful.”
“Tch. If it’s useful, why didn’t you just say so earlier?” Evilmoon interjected irritably. “You always wait until Long Chen asks first. Are you trying to be annoying on purpose?”
The Earth Cauldron was always like this. Perhaps it was simply in its nature, but it almost never voiced its own desires. It left Long Chen to notice and ask on his own. Evilmoon, on the other hand, was the complete opposite—if it saw something it wanted, it would snatch it without hesitation.
“Long Chen, you gutless coward! How can you call yourself the strongest expert of the human race?! Where’s that courage you had when you broke the scales? Come and fight! Otherwise, kneel and beg for mercy, and I, Mo Chen, might spare your dog life!”
Although they all knew this was blatant provocation, Mo Chen’s words and hateful expression still ignited everyone’s fury.
However, thanks to Xi Yuanqing’s earlier warning, the rhino dragon experts restrained themselves. They spread their perception outward and felt the suffocating pressure from the fortress.
This city was a terrifying battle fort, and only due to its immense power did they dare to attack the Sovereign Dragon Divine Nest.
“Lord Long Chen...” Xi Yuanqing said, about to request to fight Mo Chen when Long Chen raised his hand.
“Divine Dragon Pull.”
The next moment, a dragon cry echoed throughout heaven and earth, and the space in front of Mo Chen collapsed.
When Mo Chen saw Long Chen lift his hand, he smirked with disdain. Inside the city’s barrier, he thought he was untouchable.𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
But the next instant, his arrogance vanished. The air in front of him twisted violently, and the fortress itself trembled as an invisible force tore at its barrier. A translucent energy screen flickered in front of Mo Chen to protect him, but it was useless.
Space shattered like glass. Mo Chen screamed as a massive suction force yanked him into a collapsing spatial rift.
BOOM!
He roared and punched with all his might, shattering the distorted space around him. The channel collapsed, and the pulling force vanished.
He exhaled in relief, only for terror to replace it an instant later. The suction had vanished, but now he was standing face-to-face with Long Chen.
His face went pale. He frantically started to form hand seals, but before he could finish—
CRACK!
Xi Yuanqing appeared beside him, grabbed his wrist, and tore off his entire arm.
Mo Chen shrieked and staggered back, but before he could even regain his balance, a cold gleam flashed—
SWISH!
His leg was severed cleanly.
Inside the fortress’s barrier, he thought himself invincible. In his arrogance, he hadn’t even summoned his Sovereign flames. To humiliate Long Chen, he’d intentionally held back, acting as though Long Chen was beneath his notice.
Now, that arrogance had cost him dearly.
When Long Chen’s hand closed around him, Mo Chen didn’t even have time to summon his Sovereign flames. In the blink of an eye, he lost an arm and a leg.
Just then, the city shuddered, and a beam of divine light enveloped Mo Chen.
“Shit!” Xi Yuanqing cursed.
He hastily reached out to grab Mo Chen, but a powerful force knocked him away.
“Hahaha! You ants are already caught within the Heaven Capturing Stronghold’s power! Struggle all you like! You’re already dead!” Mo Chen cackled.
With the city’s energy protecting him, his fear vanished, replaced by arrogance once more.
Dozens of the rhino dragon race’s experts unleashed a joint attack, but they couldn’t break that light barrier.
Buzz.
The space around Mo Chen twisted violently, forming a spinning spatial channel.
“He’s running!” Xi Yuanqing shouted.
Unfortunately, this barrier was one with the city. Unless they had the power to crush the city, they couldn’t break the barrier.
BOOM!
Suddenly, violet qi surged through the air. A massive hand wrapped in violet mist pierced through the barrier as if it were nothing and clamped around Mo Chen’s neck.
“Wha—?!”
Before Mo Chen could react, the city’s protective power flared once more, and both he and Long Chen vanished in an explosion of light.
A heartbeat later, the space above the city walls warped, and the two figures reappeared there.
Both the rhino dragon and Black Rock Heaven Swallowing Python experts stared in disbelief. No one could comprehend how Long Chen had bypassed the stronghold’s defenses so easily.
While looking calm and cold, Long Chen said, “If it’s that easy to get in, then you’re no longer of any use.”
With that, his fingers tightened.
BOOM!
Mo Chen’s neck exploded in a shower of blood and qi.
