"She's extracting blood and soul! She's risking her life to buy time for Long Chen!" people exclaimed.
Blood stained the entire Heavenly Demon Harp with Zi Yan's hands. The scale-like patterns on the harp
, now stained with blood, emitted a fierce light. Those scales were actually bone fragments; after being stained with blood, they seemed to awaken demon kings, causing the harp to roar like a demon's howl, trembling throughout the heavens and the myriad realms.
"Boom!"
The bodies of Chunyang Gongzi and the others shuddered. Their hand seals were forcibly opened by an invisible force, and the great formation was instantly broken.
"Zi Yan..."
Meng Qi and the others felt as if their hearts were being torn apart. They wanted to rush to help Zi Yan, but under the pressure of the Heavenly Demon Harp, they couldn't move.
Gu Yang and the others gritted their teeth; they had the will to fight to the death, but no strength to do so.
"You idiots of the Qin Sect! If anything happens to Sister Ziyan, you can expect the Dragon Blood Legion to raze the Qin Sect to the ground!" Tang Wan'er roared, her teeth bleeding from clenching them.
But the Qin Sect disciples ignored Tang Wan'er completely, forming hand seals again, and the enormous Heavenly Demon Qin behind them lit up once more.
"Rumble..."
The Heavenly Demon Qin trembled incessantly, summoned by the power of the summons. Black demonic energy began to slowly emanate from its strings, a sight as if a demon was about to be awakened.
Ziyan pressed her hands firmly against the Heavenly Demon Qin, continuously releasing her blood soul power to control it and prevent it from being taken away.
"Long Chen's life is truly lucky. So many people couldn't do anything to you, so what if we join you?" Just then, a gloating female voice rang out.
Immediately afterward, the space trembled, and a large group of people appeared. Leading them was none other than Long Biluo, who had spoken.
"That vicious woman killed tens of thousands of our clan's experts just to seize opportunities."
"That damned bitch! With such terrifying strength, instead of fighting off the powerful beings from beyond the realms, she's busy stealing from her own kind. She's killed many of our sect's experts as well." Many powerful figures from the Nine Heavens World gritted their teeth upon seeing Long Biluo.
Long Biluo suffered a loss at Long Chen's hands last time, and afterwards, she frantically fought for opportunities, killing almost anyone she saw. If someone refused to give up an opportunity, she wouldn't leave them alive. She was ruthless and unscrupulous, incurring the hatred of countless powerful figures.
Now that she has appeared, so many people are gritting their teeth, which shows how many opportunities she has seized and how much blood is on her hands.
"The four great divine clans of the Nine Heavens World—Long, Ye, Zhao, and Jiang—are all here. Judging from their tone, are they here to deal with Long Chen?"
"That's not right. I heard that Long Chen possesses both the Nine Li and Purple Blood bloodlines. The Nine Li bloodline comes from the Dragon Clan of the Divine Clan. Shouldn't they all be on our side?" someone wondered.
The four great divine clans of the Nine Heavens World are renowned beings. Although they maintain a low profile, they are noble races bearing the bloodline of the Nine Li, and no one dares to underestimate them.
However, the four great divine clans are coming with overwhelming force, and Long Biluo has even uttered arrogant words. Judging from this, they are preparing to attack Long Chen.
If it were before, people could understand if they attacked Long Chen, after all, in front of a supreme treasure like the Kun Cauldron, blood ties and kinship are meaningless.
But now the Kun Cauldron has been fused with the Qian Cauldron, and the will of the Kun Cauldron is gradually weakening. Soon, there will be no more Qian and Kun Cauldrons in this world, only the complete fused Qiankun Cauldron.
The new Qiankun Cauldron is impossible for anyone to subdue. Since there is no possibility of seizing the treasure, why are the four great divine clans still targeting Long Chen?
"Long Chen, I didn't expect you to have this day. Very well, today I will kill all your subordinates first. I look forward to seeing their corpses when you come out of seclusion. What kind of expression will you have?" Looking at Long Chen in seclusion, a sinister smile appeared on Long Biluo's face.
In her last battle with Long Chen, she suffered a great loss, and her heart was filled with resentment. Because of her special bloodline, the supernatural powers she gained required the condensation of a natal divine talisman to unleash their true power.
Now, with her divine talisman fully formed and her bloodline completely activated, she confidently charged forward.
Although she sensed some powerful fluctuations hidden in the surrounding space, she didn't care at all.
"Long Biluo, are you sure you want to do this?" Behind Long Biluo, in the Long family camp, a beautiful woman looked at Long Biluo and said calmly.
"What? Long Tianrui, do you have a problem with me?" Long Biluo glanced at Long Tianrui, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
Long Tianrui was the most independent and unconventional member of the Long family. She was aloof and always went her own way, never associating with anyone in the Long family.
Such a personality should have led to her being ostracized by various factions in the Long family, but Long Tianrui had extremely high talent and limitless potential, making her one of the strongest prodigies in the Long family, on par with Long Biluo.
Long Biluo holds a superior position within the Long family, commanding numerous powerful subordinates and countless followers.
In contrast, Long Tianrui remains alone. While possessing remarkable talent, she is inherently cold and lacks ambition, a trait that makes her unsuitable for cultivation as a future family head by the higher-ups.
Long Biluo, on the other hand, is ambitious, energetic, and sharp-tongued. After a period of training, once her initial arrogance subsides and her mind matures, she will become a qualified candidate for family head.
Originally, Long Tianrui had no interest in the position of family head and posed no threat to Long Biluo. However, the arrogant Long Biluo couldn't tolerate this person who was her equal, constantly mocking and ridiculing Long Tianrui.
Now, with Long Tianrui standing up to question her, Long Biluo narrowed her eyes, a flash of killing intent in them.
"If you attack Long Chen, then I have no choice but to fight you," Long Tianrui said coldly, her face expressionless.
"What?!"
The experts from the Long family were shocked. Even the experts from the other three families thought they had misheard. Jiang Yue'e and Feng Fei were also surprised that Long Tianrui, who was usually silent, would actually declare war on Long Biluo for Long Chen.
"Senior Sister Tianrui, are you serious?" a Long family disciple asked in a trembling voice.
"Long Chen is the father of my future child. No matter who tries to harm him, I will fight them to the death," Long Tianrui said calmly.
"What?"
"The father of my future child?"
"Between them..."
Even Feng Fei was shocked. Long Tianrui and Long Chen actually had such an intimate relationship.
"You shameless woman, you can say such shameless things in public. You have completely disgraced the Long family of the Divine Clan. Since you have betrayed the family for Long Chen, don't blame me for cleaning house today," Long Biluo sneered.
"What's shameful about this? In this world, only Long Chen is worthy to be my man.
Only by uniting with him can my child become the strongest genius in the world.
Long Biluo, you want to kill Long Chen only to vent your anger, not for the sake of the family's interests.
So don't accuse me of treason, and don't use the excuse of cleaning up the family to attack me."
"You've always seen me as a thorn in your side, a thorn in your flesh, and the thought of killing me isn't new. Why be so hypocritical? If you want to kill me, then just do it."
Long Tianrui spoke, stepping forward and turning to face the powerful figures of the four divine races. She slowly gripped the long sword at her waist, and an ancient and mysterious rune between her brows slowly lit up.
"Buzz!"
A vast aura radiated outwards from Long Tianrui, and a terrifying pressure instantly filled the entire battlefield.
Even Qian Jie, who was frantically bombarding the barrier, couldn't help but feel a chill: "Such powerful law power!"
This pressure was only slightly weaker than Yue Zifeng's previous killing technique, making Qian Jie feel threatened. He hadn't expected this seemingly frail woman to possess such terrifying power.
"You all saw it. Long Tianrui brought this upon herself, so don't blame me." Long
Biluo's face flashed with murderous intent. Suddenly, she spread her arms, and the void behind her shattered, revealing a gigantic phantom.
The instant the phantom appeared, everyone gasped:
"This is... the Nine Li Tower!"
