Chapter 5143 No Choice But To Be Greedy
The sight of millions of top experts undergoing tribulation at the same time was breathtaking.
When Lu Fan and the others’ auras erupted, Heavenly Flame energy surged over them, forming spheres of flame around their bodies as they absorbed the energy. In the sky above, clumps of tribulation clouds appeared. Every single one of them corresponded to someone undergoing tribulation. Millions of these clouds materialized, resembling stars scattered across a celestial river—a breathtaking sight.
Lu Fan, Li Tianfan, Qin Keqing, Luo Yujiao, Huang Wudao, Netherdragon Wushang, and the other peak experts had enormous tribulation clouds, but they were all caught within Long Chen’s enormous swirling tribulation clouds.
Seeing this scene, Lu Fan’s pupils shrank. He glanced at Long Chen, who remained immersed in the flames, controlling the majority of the Heavenly Flame energy and preventing it from dispersing to anyone else.
“This bastard! Is he not afraid of bursting?!” Lu Fan clenched his teeth in frustration.
When the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone exploded, ninety-nine percent of the flames erupted outward, but the very essence of it remained locked in the core. That was because Long Chen and Huo Linger worked to trap the essence, refusing to let it escape. After that, Long Chen crazily absorbed this energy as quickly as he could.
Unbeknownst to him, one of the laws of this place dictated that the stronger the heavenly tribulation, the more Heavenly Flame energy one would absorb. Conversely, the more Heavenly Flame energy one absorbed, the stronger their heavenly tribulation would become. The two forces fed into each other.
Originally, Long Chen’s heavenly tribulation was already incomparably terrifying. Now, as he absorbed the Heavenly Flame energy with reckless abandon, the tribulation clouds above his head continued to swell, growing ever more menacing.
“Big brother Long Chen, is this really alright? This heavenly tribulation is frightening,” said Huo Linger, her voice quivering.
She had followed Long Chen for so many years and had experienced countless heavenly tribulations by his side. But this time, the scale of the heavenly tribulation even scared her.
As they absorbed more Heavenly Flame energy, the tribulation whirlpool grew limitlessly. More and more lightning runes condensed within the clouds, devouring each other and growing. The destructive power contained within this tribulation was something Huo Linger had never experienced before.
Clenching his teeth, Long Chen replied, “Ignore it. Absorb as much as you can. If we’re going to play, we’re going to play big. We have no other choice other than getting stronger.”
“Long Chen, if this continues, the strength of the tribulation will exceed your expectations. Don’t be too greedy,” warned the Earth Cauldron.
“I’m not trying to be greedy, but I have no other choice. If I’m not greedy, how will I deal with them? Senior, do you think they will spare me?” replied Long Chen, as he eyed Lu Fan and the others outside.
They were all first-rate experts. In a one-on-one fight, Long Chen wouldn’t be afraid of them. However, with so many of them gathered here, Long Chen would be sent to the yellow springs if he didn’t get stronger.
Just Lu Fan alone had forced Long Chen to reveal all his trump cards. Now, with over twenty more experts of his caliber, how could Long Chen stand a chance against them if he wasn’t greedy?
“Senior, I’ve only grown stronger because the condition forced me to. If I were alone, perhaps I could risk it all and flee. But they didn’t give me that option. If I run, Bai Yingxue, Feng You, and the others will all die. Tell me, what choice do I have?” continued Long Chen, his tone resolute.
The Earth Cauldron fell silent as it knew Long Chen very well. Telling Long Chen to abandon his friends was impossible. He would rather fight to the bitter end and die alongside everyone else.
“Long Chen has taken almost fifty percent of the purest essence of the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone, but it’s impossible for him to devour that much, so he’s going to burst. We just need to wait. Limitless greed never has a good end. When the tribulation really starts, the Heavenly Flame energy will merge with the tribulation’s energy, and those two forces will instantly take his life. Even if he doesn’t die then, he’ll be on the verge of death and perish anyway,” said Lu Fan.
Lu Fan knew more about the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone’s energy than anyone else. What Long Chen had locked onto was the purest part of the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone.
That portion was originally supposed to be Lu Fan’s, but even he would need to carefully seal this energy into the Brahma rune, absorbing only a tiny fraction for his current advancement. The rest would be reserved as nourishment for his eventual breakthrough to the Human Emperor realm
Hence, for Long Chen to try to devour everything at once was like a tiny serpent trying to swallow an elephant.
Suddenly, Lu Fan formed a series of hand seals, and his Heavenly Flame Qilin appeared. Seeing Long Chen and Huo Linger, it roared angrily and was about to charge forward when Lu Fan stopped it.
“Don’t be impatient. When they lose control of the Heavenly Flames, I’ll take Long Chen, and that flame spirit is yours,” said Lu Fan as he patted the Heavenly Flame Qilin, his eyes shining with a sinister light.
The flames around Long Chen grew to a certain extent before stopping, signaling that Long Chen had reached his absolute limit. After that, the tribulation clouds above him roared, and the whirlpool of clouds spun faster and faster.
“Hehe, let’s see how he dies,” Li Tianfan chuckled. Seeing lightning flash at the center of the whirlpool above Long Chen’s head, Li Tianfan knew that Long Chen’s tribulation was about to start.
Just as everyone stared in rapt attention, wanting to see how the Heavenly Flame energy and the tribulation energy merged and crushed Long Chen, the giant whirlpool absorbed their tribulation clouds.
“What?!” This time, even Lu Fan and the other peak experts were taken aback.
