Chapter 6546 Heavenly Lightning Saint Body
Dragon pillars burst from the ground. One by one, the outsider dragon experts jerked as a dragon rune surfaced on each of their foreheads.
It was the slave seal Long Xu had planted in them.
All of them cried out in terror.
“Lord Long Xu—!”
Long Xu howled, “Sacrifice your blood soul!”
The heads of these dragon experts exploded. Their Blood, soul, and qi collapsed into dragon runes that shot out of their bodies like streaks of light.
Long Xu’s face twisted in pain. This legion—his hard-won army, built through ruthless conquests—was supposed to be the cornerstone of his triumphant return to the vile dragon race.
Yet in an instant, every one of them was offered up as a sacrifice. But Long Xu had no other choice. If Long Chen willed it, he would be reduced to ash.
From the start, Long Chen had ordered him to gather the strongest outsider dragon experts possible and brand each of them with this slave seal, saving them for a decisive moment.
With the forbidden item in his possession, Long Xu had risen to the half-step Sovereign Lord realm at terrifying speed. He swept across multiple factions, subduing every dragon expert he found. As a result, his group rapidly expanded, dwarfing even Long Wu’s force.
Long Xu was still unhappy at being controlled by Long Chen, but he also didn’t dare to rebel. Thus, he simply ordered this army to stay far away from the battlefield.
In his heart, he had been praying for someone to kill Long Chen. That way, he would regain his freedom.
Regrettably, things didn’t go as Long Xu wished. Long Chen had given the order to sacrifice all these outsider dragon experts, and he did not dare to defy Long Chen.
With the slave seals on them, these dragon experts had no ability to resist. They all exploded into dragon runes. Space twisted, forming a whirlpool that swallowed all these runes.
On the battlefield, another whirlpool formed above the Dragonblood Legion. Runes poured out like a golden storm.
“This is...!”
The Dragonblood warriors were all shocked. Their dragon souls had been nearly exhausted through endless combat. But the moment these runes touched them, the dragon souls devoured the energy like starving beasts.
In the blink of an eye, their blood soul power recovered to thirty percent.
The battlefield trembled as dragon phantoms were dragged screaming from the void.
Previously, Long Chen’s Dragon Roars at the Nine Heavens had slain many dragon experts from Long Wu’s side, as well as the Netherdragon experts led by Netherdragon Tianshao.
Their dragon soul karmic luck should have dissipated. But because Long Chen killed them with his dragon power, their souls were bound onto the battlefield and didn’t immediately dissipate.
Now, Long Chen was using his golden crown as a dragon rune-gathering formation. All the dragon soul energy locked in this space was being pulled in.
The Dragonblood Legion absorbed it. Anyone with dragon blood or even blessed by dragon spirits was being uplifted by the tide of karmic luck.
Even Yue Zifeng was stirred awake by this dragon qi. Some dragon shadows swirled around him, their karmic luck pouring into his body.
Yue Zifeng didn’t have dragon blood or a dragon soul, but he could receive the dragon race’s blessing. As these dragon runes contained the purest energy of heaven and earth, they helped Yue Zifeng recover his energy rapidly.
“It’s a sacrificial offering technique! Stop them!” Long Wu and Netherdragon Tianshao both roared. As members of the dragon race, they knew just how frightening such a thing was.
Unfortunately, whether it was the vile dragon race or the Netherdragon race, they no longer had the power to do much on this battlefield. Long Chen’s Dragon Roars at the Nine Heavens had slaughtered ninety-nine percent of their experts. By now, both factions had fewer than a hundred thousand survivors when added together.
They could now be considered the weakest factions here. As a result, no one heeded their roar.
“Hmph, an insignificant trick!” The Heaven Earth Cauldron shot into motion, and the chains around its body glowed.
At this sight, Long Chen’s heart tightened. Astral energy condensed within him. His eight gates flashed rapidly as he prepared to face this primal chaos divine item.
“Damn!”
The Heave Earth Cauldron let out a furious roar. Its runes spiraled wildly, and it shook uncontrollably. It suddenly failed to launch its attack.
“Senior...”
Long Chen’s vision blurred. His tears threatened to spill. The Earth Cauldron’s will was still alive—still fighting for him.
“Qian Jie, are you stupid?! Hurry up and stop them! Everyone, attack!” roared the Heaven Earth Cauldron.
The Heaven Earth Cauldron was extremely vexed. It thought that it had fully devoured the Earth Cauldron, but the Earth Cauldron’s will was stronger than it had expected. Now, it needed to focus entirely on suppressing it.
“Kill!” Qian Jie roared, charging forward.
Qian Jie’s hatred and jealousy toward Long Chen had always been strong. But now, his fear burned hotter than ever.
After all, the Heaven Earth Cauldron wanted Long Chen as its item-slave. If Long Chen lived, Qian Jie would die.
Qian Jie had to use this chance while the Heaven Cauldron was suppressing the Earth Cauldron’s will to eliminate Long Chen. Otherwise, the Heaven Earth Cauldron would execute him for Long Chen.
“Heaven Earth Law—Annihilation!”
Qian Jie’s bronze arm writhed with serpent-like patterns as Heaven Earth power surged into him. His aura swelled, stronger than ever.
“One Star, Star Fall!”
Long Chen waved his hand, sending a star flying at Qian Jie.
BOOM!
Qian Jie snorted and punched. The star shattered. But before he could do anything else, figures flickered through the air.
Long Chen’s afterimages flooded the battlefield.
“One Star, Star Fall!”
“Two Stars, Flying Rainbow!”
“Three Stars, Soul Chaser!”
“Four Stars, Devil Prison!”
“Five Stars, Void Break!”
“Six Stars, God Seal!”
“Seven Stars, Moon Slash!”
In the time it took for lightning to flash, Long Chen had unleashed every astral technique he possessed. The sky filled with stars, blades, seals, and shadows.
Qian Jie had never endured such a concentrated assault. He couldn’t sense Long Chen’s real position at all. Forced to defend blindly, he was overwhelmed.
As a result, the final strike—Moon Slash—hit squarely, destroying half of Qian Jie’s arm.
Even with Heaven Earth power protecting him, flesh and blood could only endure so much. With his armor broken, the attack tore through his body, ripping it open.
Just then, the world twisted.
Long Chen’s vision warped. The battlefield vanished, replaced by a rolling landscape of mountains and rivers.
“Explode!”
Long Chen slammed both palms outward. His Heaven Earth power shook the air, crushing the illusion.
There was now a giant divine diagram between Long Chen and Qian Jie.
Fan Ji had tried to trap him in the Brahma Divine Diagram, but Long Chen had fought this diagram many times. To trap him with it was not so easy.
Just as Long Chen avoided the Brahma Divine Diagram, he immediately felt killing intent behind him.
With a surge of astral energy, he slammed his fists behind him.
A pill furnace materialized and was blasted away. But the impact numbed Long Chen’s arm. This furnace carried terrifying faith energy, enough to shake his insides.
Then, a bolt of lightning flashed, and a line of blood appeared on Long Chen’s neck.
“Fast!”
Long Chen was startled. A man covered in lightning runes stood in front of him.
“This is the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art? It seems worthless in front of me—Tian Leizi—and my Heavenly Lightning Saint Body!”
The lightning runes scattered, revealing a horned man in lightning battle robes. He waved a finger, the blood from Long Chen’s neck glistening on the tip.
