Chapter 7133 Let the Killing Commence
Chapter 7133 Let the Killing Commence
Long Chen stood before the gates in his black robes, facing an endless army of experts all alone. Every single person at the academy, especially those high-spirited disciples, was deeply shaken as they stared at his back. Their blood began to heat up before they even realized it.
“I can finally see Boss fight again!”
Among the crowd, Long Ziwei was the one most filled with anticipation. He knew what was about to happen.
“How arrogant of you, Long Chen. You plan on facing us all by yourself?”
Seeing Long Chen step outside the barrier by himself, Tu Jie was startled. He had already passed back word to the Immortal Ascension Gate that Long Chen was the killer. Li Yifu hadn’t even gotten the news yet, but Long Chen had for some reason decided to come out and stand before them, just like that. When the battle started, Tu Jie wouldn’t be able to stop others from killing him!
Long Chen had killed Li Mingdao, so Tu Jie had been ordered to capture him alive; Li Yifu absolutely insisted on torturing him for eternity. But doing so would probably be very difficult now. Who knew how frightening the gate master’s wrath would be?
Tu Jie had been planning on stalling a bit longer for Li Yifu to send him orders. But Long Chen didn’t give him the chance.
The others immediately grew antsy when they saw Long Chen. His reputation had grown to ridiculous heights over the past few years. Even in this new era with countless monsters rising, Long Chen’s light could not be eclipsed.
The younger-generation members of the army were particularly agitated. They wanted to rush over and kill Long Chen immediately. This was the man acclaimed to be number one of the junior generation! Although part of that claim was just a scheme, the fact that Long Chen hadn’t died at the hands of people seeking to take the title showed that his reputation was not in vain. They now finally had a chance to exchange blows with this legendary being, and anyone who killed Long Chen would be able to claim his title as the number one figure of the nine heavens.
The army surrounding the academy was quickly set into motion. Countless powerful auras rose. Many of them even summoned their manifestations. Tremendous pressure crashed over the land; let alone ordinary disciples, even triple-manifestation Divine Sovereigns were affected and forced to summon their heaven-earth law manifestations to resist. Their powerful auras rose, turning into wild waves that slammed against the academy’s barrier.
Over three thousand triple-manifestation Divine Sovereigns and millions of top heavenly geniuses in addition to an even greater army of regular troops! This kind of lineup was something the academy’s experts had never seen before.
Although the academy’s disciples refused to submit even in death, this pressure still left them sweating and shivering. However, Long Chen simply remained standing before the gates like an immovable mountain. He stared at the army before him apathetically.
Suddenly, the void in the distance twisted and tore, and a battleship appeared. Zi Yan and Miao Yin were standing side by side at the bow, while everyone else had their heads craned out the side of the ship and were watching nervously.
“Is there really no need for us to join in?” asked Miao Yin, glancing at Zi Yan.
In response, Zi Yan gave a mysterious smile. “You’re underestimating Long Chen too much. Do you really think you lost to him because you were unlucky? Did you think that trump card of yours could beat him?”
Miao Yin was stunned. Both Long Chen and Zi Yan seemed to know she had another powerful trump card, but neither seemed to care.
“Little sister Miao Yin, do you really not remember why you decided to conquer the nine heavens?” asked Zi Yan suddenly.
Miao Yin’s expression changed slightly. “Big sister, do you know why? If you could tell me, I would be endlessly grateful!”
Seeing Miao Yin’s reaction, Zi Yan sighed. “What a pitiful girl. Sorry, but there are some things I really can’t say. You’ll need to rely on yourself for that.”
Just then, the army shot into motion. No one had made the first move, but the powerful auras surging made it so that a lot of people had no choice but to take action.
Everyone’s power layered on top of each other as it crashed down on Long Chen. The space around Long Chen twisted wildly from the immense power.
The academy and the battleship’s people all tensed. But Long Chen simply watched as the massive army advanced towards him. His black robes fluttered as a sharp aura slowly rose out of him.
His voice rang out solemnly throughout heaven and earth, like a war god’s murmur reaching deep inside their souls. “I’m ashamed that I haven’t done much for the first academy in the past few years. As the dean, I should at least contribute something; otherwise, many of you will refuse to acknowledge me.”
Du XInhe and his people were all very dissatisfied with Long Chen as head of the first academy. They had even expressed their desire to replace him. But at this moment, they all felt a surge of embarrassment. Ignoring everything else, just the courage to face such a massive army all alone was not something that they had.
“Today, I will give everyone a lesson. I want the disciples to watch closely and learn. This is the experience I gained through risking my life.” Long Chen then turned towards the battleship and gazed at Miao Yin. “Girl, since you’ve chosen the path of dominance, you must learn a bit too! To your people, you must be a saint, a savior. To others, you must be a benevolent king. But to your enemies, you must be a ruthless hegemon. Unfortunately, I have only seen you act as a saint.”
Miao Yin shook slightly. She understood what he was saying. Yes, she had the charisma to win people over and make them loyal to her. However, she was clearly lacking when facing enemies. She consoled herself by saying that her faction wasn’t strong enough and she needed to accumulate more power, but that was just an excuse. She couldn’t lie to herself. This truly was her shortcoming.
“Dean Long Chen...”
Zhao Hongfei was panicking as he watched. Long Chen was refusing the aid of the formations. He wanted to face all these enemies on his own. But Long Chen was not just the dean of the first academy; he was also the future of the entire High Firmament Academy. Nothing could happen to him, or how would he face the sweeping elder?
“Yin and Yang switch; the endless heaven and the boundless earth flip. Heaven-earth law empowerment!”
The ☷ and ☰ essence runes appeared in Long Chen’s eyes. The Three Thousand Worlds appeared behind him.
The world changed color. The power of the ten thousand Daos surged towards him. The Three Thousand Worlds shuddered as two bloodline powers merged and ignited; turning into a burning pillar of light that soared into the heavens.
A giant whirlpool of lightning and dark clouds appeared in the sky. It was an unfathomable large vortex, which no gaze or divine sense could ever hope to encompass. It was as if heavenly punishment had just descended.
“Heavens, this manifestation...!”
No one had ever witnessed such a terrifying manifestation. Their so-called heaven-earth law manifestation seemed incredibly insignificant in comparison.
“Let the killing commence!”
Long Chen suddenly vanished from his spot. A triple-manifestation Divine Sovereign in the enemy army exploded into blood mist, and from this blood mist, a black-robed figure appeared like a devilish god crawling his way up from hell.
“Kill him!”
The entire army was enraged. They immediately crashed down on Long Chen from all sides.
