"Boom!"
Huo Ling'er's wings spread wide, their golden wings tearing through the sky. Unlike before, eighteen golden crows swirled atop her wings, forming totem wings. The Three-Vein Heavenly Saint-level Demon Saint was struck by Huo Ling'er's wings, splattering blood wildly.
"Boom boom boom... Huo
Ling'er sometimes transformed into human form, sometimes into a golden crow. Sometimes, in the blink of an eye, she switched several times, her figure filling the sky, making it impossible to tell if it was real or fake. That three-veined Heavenly Saint-level demon was killed by Huo Ling'er, barely able to defend herself, with no chance to fight back.
You have to know, Huo Ling'er doesn't possess the Divine Dragon Might. She relies on her true abilities to contend head-on with a three-veined Heavenly Saint-level expert. It must be said, at this moment, Huo Ling'er's strength has indeed surpassed Long Chen's.
The eighteen golden crows sometimes transformed into totems to assist Huo Ling'er in fierce battles, sometimes transformed into golden crows, pouncing on opponents to attack alone. Not to mention the monsters—even Long Chen would be flustered when faced with such unpredictable attack moves.
"This is terrifying!" Long Chen had lost count of how many times he had said this today.
Huo Ling'er had completely suppressed the demon. If she wanted to kill it, she could do so within a few moves. But Huo Ling'er wasn't in a hurry to kill it; instead, she used it to practice, constantly testing out her newly mastered Golden Crow divine power.
Long Chen immersed his mind in the chaotic space and discovered that the endless Golden Crows were sleeping atop the ancient Fusang tree. However, their bodies were only a dozen zhang long, and their aura was not strong.
"There are too many Golden Crows. They need too much energy to grow. I think the supply is somewhat insufficient here!" Long Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Originally, the life energy in the chaotic space was extremely dense, but now it had become thin because it had been absorbed by the ancient Fusang tree. To raise such a large flock of Golden Crows, the energy required was astonishing.
"Huo Ling'er possesses eighteen Golden Crows and possesses such terrifying power. If these seven thousand or so Golden Crows fully mature, just how strong would she be then?" Long Chen watched Huo Ling'er's figure in the fierce battle, finding it hard to imagine.
Those eighteen Golden Crows are equivalent to eighteen Sons of Destiny, and they're all incredibly powerful—terrifying in strength and immortal. Their power can be controlled by Huo Ling'er's will, able to be divided or merged. This kind of ability is practically cheating!
With a thunderous boom, the three-veined Heavenly Saint-level demon finally could no longer withstand Huo Ling'er's power and was shattered by a single blow from her staff.
This three-vein Heavenly Saint-level demon was extremely frustrating—unable to fight or escape, and was brutally beaten to death by Huo Ling'er.
"Pfft!"
At that moment, Long Chen pointed a finger, striking the monster's forehead. Because Huo Ling'er had exhausted all its source power, it was now extremely weak. Long Chen's finger pierced through its skull and immediately began soul-searching.
Huo Ling'er watched from the side, and seeing that Long Chen showed no sign of surprise, she couldn't help but ask, "
What is it?" Still not allowed? Long
Chen nodded and said, "Still not possible. Although I can detect some strange fluctuations, I can't interpret them. If only Meng Qi were here, she would definitely be able to handle it easily." "
Long Chen couldn't help but think of Meng Qi. Meng Qi was skilled in soul arts, so this kind of thing shouldn't be difficult for her. But Long Chen couldn't handle it. Although his soul power was strong, it was too violent to be controlled at the micro level, so Long Chen directly gave up cultivating soul techniques.
"Senior, I suddenly have an idea—I just don't know..." Long Chen said to the Qiankun Cauldron.
He now faced two choices: one was to quickly enter the core region and compete with the prodigies of various races for the best promotion opportunity.
Another was to go check out the stone embryo. Long Chen always felt that the stone embryo hid an astonishing secret, and if he missed it, he would regret it.
Long Chen wanted to know the secret of the stone embryo, but was afraid of missing the opportunity at the core of the Heavenly Fire Demon Domain. If everyone else advanced to immortality, especially Minglong Wushang, Luo Yujiao, Lu Fan, and Huang Wudao,
These people were already extremely terrifying; any one of them was a ruthless one. Although Long Chen wasn't afraid of them, he had to be fully alert when facing them.
If they had advanced to Immortality while Long Chen was still at the Divine Venerable realm, then Long Chen would truly have no chance of survival. For the moment, Long Chen was at a loss for a choice, so he sought advice from the Qiankun Cauldron, hoping to hear its opinion.
"This matter is something you need to consider for yourself. I can't give you advice. This is a crossroads, and I can't see the future karma clearly." Qiankun Cauldron said.
Hearing Qiankun Cauldron's words, Long Chen gritted his teeth and said, "The core area must be occupied by people from the Brahma Pill Valley. Outsiders wanting a share of the core territory probably won't be so easy either. Let's just go see what that stone base really is first." "
The Qiankun Cauldron did not respond to Long Chen's words. Clearly, it had no intention of giving him any guidance. Whether it was a blessing or a curse was uncertain, so it was better to leave it to Long Chen to decide.
Seeing that the Qiankun Cauldron didn't respond, Long Chen didn't waste words and let Huo Ling'er return to the chaotic space to rest. Although Huo Ling'er was still excited, after two battles, the power of the eighteen Golden Crows had begun to wane, and they all needed to rest.
Moreover, because too many Golden Crows had previously settled in the Fusang Ancient Forest, the energy in the chaotic space had become depleted. They wanted to return to peak condition but couldn't recover as quickly as before. Although Huo Ling'er was reluctant, she had no choice but to return to the chaotic space to rest.
Long Chen then sped toward the core area of the Heavenly Fire Demon Domain. Although he encountered countless monsters along the way, he had no patience to entangle with them.
These monsters were all here to clear the battlefield, because anyone entering the Heavenly Fire Demon Domain would immediately break through to the central area. Now, there were few people left in the outer areas.
Long Chen spread his thunder wings and charged forward. Along the way, he saw many races quietly advancing toward the core area. It seemed they were the ones who slipped through the encirclement, as their numbers were small and they were overlooked.
When they saw Long Chen swaggering through the air, countless people were shocked. When they recognized Long Chen's identity, greed flashed in their eyes, but that greed quickly faded. With their strength, killing Long Chen would be no different from courting death.
Long Chen sprinted swiftly, soon discovering a force of hundreds of thousands fiercely battling the demon army.
"Hehe, here's your chance."
Seeing them, Long Chen didn't hesitate and dove straight in.
