Chapter 6243 - A Colossal Secret

“Long Chen, I have given up on further igniting the Emperor Flame and advanced directly to Divine Emperor just to find you. I never expected you to deliver yourself to my doorstep.” The vicious bird's enormous eyes, like two blood moons, stared fixedly at Long Chen, its voice filled with excitement. “Oh? You're looking for me? Is it to thank me for buying you time?” Long Chen looked at the ferocious bird, his smile not reaching his eyes as he spoke. “Hahaha, yes indeed, I should thank you for buying us time. As a reward, hand over the Qiankun Cauldron, and I will leave you with an intact corpse.” The vicious bird laughed heartily, its laughter full of confidence. “One hundred and eighty-three Emperor Flames, truly a pity. You could have continued igniting the Emperor Flame here, and after gathering two hundred Emperor Flames, advanced to Divine Emperor. Your strength would have undergone a qualitative leap.” Long Chen counted the Emperor Flames surrounding the divine bird and couldn't help but shake his head. In the Heavenly Domain Battlefield, too many strong ones have fallen. Since this place forms its own world, the power of the fallen strong ones is trapped within it, creating unique fortune laws. This is the best opportunity to ignite the Emperor Flame. In the Nine Heavens world, many people's Emperor Flame has reached its limit, but here, they can break through barriers and condense more Emperor Flames. This person is not far from the two hundred mark. Giving up condensing the Emperor Flame at this time to advance to Divine Emperor is truly puzzling. “You foolish creature, what do you know?” The divine bird sneered, obviously unconvinced. Long Chen said calmly, “Just now, I was trapped in the Ten Realms Diagram. You heard the Five Emperors reciting scriptures, didn't you?” “I heard it, so what? Do you want me to thank you?” The divine bird sneered. Its body remained motionless in the void, countless runes silently gathering. Long Chen ignored its little tricks and said faintly, “How foolish. The treasure scripture appeared, yet you turned a deaf ear. The Human Emperor Realm is the best realm for your demon race to comprehend the heavenly dao. Only in human form can you better condense the Emperor Flame, yet you missed it.” “Hahaha…” The divine bird laughed loudly, suddenly its whole body burst with divine light, divine symbols began to surge frantically, and its violent aura spread in all directions. “The foolish one is you. I just broke through to Divine Emperor. The condensation of Divine Emperor Runes requires some time. If you had escaped immediately, I might not have caught up with you, but now, you've missed all your chances. What awaits you is only death.” “Buzz” The divine bird spread its wings, the aura of the Divine Emperor merged with the Emperor Flame, forming a new flame, its divine might overwhelming. The vicious bird sneered, “Among the endless prodigies, my Emperor Flame can only be considered slightly above average. There are countless stronger than me. I must break through now, while they are still condensing Emperor Flames, to have more opportunities. And the facts prove that everything I did was correct. In the past, I wouldn’t even have the qualification to challenge you, but now…” “You still don’t.” Long Chen said with certainty. “Nonsense, only by breaking free from the human form can our demon race’s true power be unleashed. The human form is a curse and seal placed on us by the despicable human race. Today, I will show you how terrifying the demon race is without the human form.” The vicious bird roared. “Whoosh” Suddenly, its giant claw trembled, tearing through the void, almost reaching Long Chen in an instant. “Boom” With a loud explosion, the spot where Long Chen stood, the void and earth were shattered by a claw, revealing a sky full of dust. The vicious bird's speed was too fast, yet this terrifying strike hit nothing, Long Chen's figure somehow appearing above the void. “Not bad speed, but still not enough.” Long Chen said calmly. “Let’s see how long you can be arrogant.” The vicious bird suddenly spread its wings, thousands of divine feathers shining, condensing into arrows of divine feathers in the void, shooting towards Long Chen. “Boom boom boom…” The divine feathers, like arrows, pierced through the void, space exploding, endless dust, this attack covered a space of tens of thousands of miles, leaving Long Chen no room to dodge or escape. “Only by breaking free from the human form can our demon race's innate treasure skills truly awaken. Our source power is dozens of times more vigorous than before, with endless strength. Hand over the Qiankun Cauldron, and I might consider leaving you with an intact corpse.” The vicious bird, attack unceasing, shouted aloud. “Boom boom boom…” Yet amidst the endless arrow feathers, a figure slowly walked out from the dense attack. Long Chen's black robe fluttered, neither dodging nor evading, walking leisurely, and in front of him, there was a transparent protective shield. Those divine feathers collided with the protective shield, disintegrating, disappearing, unable to harm Long Chen in the slightest. “What?” The ancient vicious bird's expression changed drastically, its divine skill not only had amazing attack power but was also continuous, capable of quickly exhausting the opponent's strength. Its goal was not to kill Long Chen instantly but to force him into a desperate situation, exhausting his source power, capturing him alive. It believed that Long Chen not only had the Qiankun Cauldron but possibly other treasures, intending to slowly interrogate and drain Long Chen completely. However, it didn't expect its proud attack to be ineffective against Long Chen, unable to harm him in the slightest. “Damn it, what kind of look is that? Since you’re seeking death, I’ll fulfill your wish.” The vicious bird roared, its figure flickered, and the vast divine feathers disappeared. “Buzz” Its whole body trembled, divine light radiating in all directions, a massive vicious bird emerged from its body, carrying countless divine lights, charging towards Long Chen. This is the innate treasure skill of the vicious bird clan, after it breaks away from the body, all the divine lights roar, absorbing the power of heaven and earth frantically, endless fragments of laws pouring into its body. “Boom” The vicious bird phantom slammed into Long Chen, the explosion resounding through the heavens, this strike, infused with the laws of heaven and earth, was fully unleashed. “Boom boom boom…” In the void, ripples blossomed, mountains shattered, dust filled the sky. However, when the dust settled, Long Chen was unscathed, standing in the void, looking at the vicious bird calmly: “Is this the power you spoke of?” “You…” The ancient vicious bird's face changed drastically, suddenly, its wings trembled fiercely, divine light soaring to the sky. “Buzz” Suddenly, its figure retreated rapidly, fleeing. “Boom” Yet just as it retreated, a loud explosion sounded, endless petals formed a divine wall in the void, it crashed into the divine wall, bounced back. The vicious bird was dazed from the collision, just about to get up. “Boom” A big foot stomped on its giant head fiercely, the earth was stomped into a huge pit. “Lord Long Chen, I was wrong, please, spare my life, I have a huge secret to tell you.” The vicious bird let out a terrified scream.
