Li Yifengs expression was unsightly.
Based on the spatial fluctuations remaining here, it seemed that Long Chen and the others had used a spatial transportation to leave.
However, the remaining fluctuations were chaotic, offering no clue of their destination.
Yifeng, dont worry, said the elder whom Long Chen had slapped. That brat Long Chen is quite crafty. He actually detected the energy mark Li Tianbi planted on him. But it doesnt matter. Now that hes in the Devil Slaying Battlefield, he no longer has the palace masters protection. Theres no chance he leaves this place alive.
The other elder nodded.
Thats right, we know the terrain here like the back of our hand. The Qu family girl knows a little about this place, but shes an idiot and not worth worrying about. Well be here for a month. Thats more than enough time to hunt them down slowly.
Li Yifeng nodded. There was nothing else to be done.
The group vanished at once.
Youre the idiotyour entire family is full of idiots! Two undying idiots!
In a hidden location, Qu Yingying stared at the projection before her and erupted in curses.
Before they left, Long Chen had set up a monitoring formation over their previous location. It was Xia Chens work, and it was so subtle that even Li Yifengs group had failed to detect it.
Qu Yingyings face flushed red. The old mans words had been heard by the entire Starry River Legion.
Two Divine Sovereigns have appeared, Qin Yu said, frowning. Are they targeting us? How can they act so brazenly?
This place was the trial place for disciples. For two Divine Sovereigns to appear was clearly against the rules.
Grinding her teeth, Qu Yingying said, Those two undying old fogeys arent ordinary Divine Sovereigns. Theyre Starry River Sovereign Guards, and they were the palace masters followers. After receiving his guidance, theyre just one step away from becoming acquired Divine Sovereigns. Ordinary Divine Sovereigns arent even worth mentioning before them.
Qu Yingyings anger had yet to fade. When it came to the Starry River Sovereign Guards, she would normally show utmost respect, but that old man had thoroughly enraged her.
The Starry River Sovereign Guards were the main force of the Starry River Palace. There were only eight of them, and they rarely appeared. Because of her special status, Qu Yingying had met one before and could recognize them.
Half-step acquired Divine Sovereigns?
Everyone was shocked.
Long Chen had used the Sovereign Dao Foundation Breaking Pills to let them undergo creation through destruction. Thanks to this, they had condensed entirely new essence runes.
After that, he had explained the distinction between innate and acquired Divine Sovereigns.
It was better for them to understand this early. It would be very important when they eventually became Divine Sovereigns and condensed heaven-earth law manifestations.
Because they understood the insurmountable gap between innate and acquired Divine Sovereigns, the shock was immediate.
They are not half-step acquired Divine Sovereigns. They have used some kind of method to make up for their flaws. Now, they are truly acquired Divine Sovereigns, corrected Long Chen.
What? Qu Yingying asked in disbelief. Real acquired Divine Sovereigns? Their heaven-earth law manifestations are fully formed? How can you tell?
I slapped one of them before, so I remember his aura clearly. His incomplete law fluctuations have been corrected. Hes now a complete acquired Divine Sovereign. However, since the flaw was patched with external means, hes still a level weaker than people like Vice Palace Master Liushang or Li Wanci.
Just one level weaker? Qu Yingying blurted out. Then can we deal with them? What are they thinking? Helping Li Wanci bully us? How shameless! Wait, little brother, why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong? They really are bullies!
There was a strange look in Long Chens eyes.
The old fellows insult toward her was not unfounded. Her naivety stunned Long Chen speechless.
After a sigh, he said, If we fall into their hands, you might survive because of your unique status. But I wouldnt count on it.
Ah? Theyll kill us?! But thats impossible! Qu Yingying froze, finding it hard to believe such a thing.
They dared to appear openly, Long Chen said. They didnt conceal their identities or auras. That means theyre prepared to silence everyone involved.
If the palace master learns of this, none of them would survive! If my familys patriarch finds out, hell definitely avenge us! Qu Yingying snapped.
Thats only if they learn of it, Long Chen said calmly. Once were dead, theyll blame the outsider devils. Then, theyll cut down a few devil heads and report to Qu Liushang. They will say, Vice Palace Master, these are the fiends who killed your descendant! We did our best, but we could only avenge Miss Yingying, not save her. Please punish us! What could anyone do then?
Long Chen gestured, laying out the outcome perfectly.
Qu Yingying was stunned. She could hardly believe it. Would the two Starry River Sovereign Guards truly dare to kill them?
However, deep inside, she trusted Long Chen. It was just that she had trouble reconciling this harsh reality.
Lord Long Chen, what should we do now? Qin Yu asked, feeling a bit at a loss.
They had to face an endless tide of outsider devils, and now two acquired Divine Sovereigns were hunting them. At any moment, they could be annihilated.
Long Chen smiled comfortingly. Two acquired Divine Sovereigns arent frightening. Dont forgetyoure no longer who you used to be. If you cant even deal with two old men, how do you expect to cross the nine heavens and wipe out the devils?
Long Chens words reignited everyones confidence.
That was true, they were no longer helpless. So what if they were acquired Divine Sovereigns? If it came down to it, they would fight to the death. With their numbers, victory was not impossible.
However, since everyone is still getting used to the battlefield, its best to avoid them for now. Right now, we are using the outsider devils as a grindstone to temper ourselves. Once you are sharp enough, we will go kill those old fogeys, declared Long Chen.
Qin Yu nodded. After organizing everyone, she was about to cast out bait with her aura when Long Chen stopped her.
We have to grow faster. This process is now too slow, so were diving right into the heart of our enemies, said Long Chen.
If we go there, we will be instantly surrounded. There may not be a chance for us to escape, Qin Yu warned.
Theres no need to escape, Long Chen replied. Well kill as many as come. Well use battle to train for battle.
Other than Qin Yu, all the other nine star heirs felt their blood heating up.
Most of them couldnt stay calm. Just hearing Long Chens proposal set their battle instincts ablaze. They wanted to charge toward the next battle immediately.
Seeing that Qin Yu was still worried, Long Chen smiled. Those two old fogeys wont dare to appear at the heart of the battlefield.
Now, Qin Yu understood.
In truth, this battlefield was for the young disciples of both sides to train. If a Divine Sovereign appeared at the heart of the battlefield, the outsier devils would notice and send out experts on this level as well.
It was an unspoken rule, observed by both sides, that Divine Sovereigns did not intervene here.
So, while going deeper was dangerous, it also meant they wouldnt have to be on guard against the ambush from the two Divine Sovereigns.
Using a transportation formation, they vanished once more and arrived at the core of the Devil Slaying Battlefield.
Devil qi filled this place. The laws were strange and twisted. Anyone without sufficient strength would be crushed by the aura alone.
Human race flesh delicious
As soon as they appeared, a hoarse growl rang out. Figures emitting black qi quickly converged on them.
