Chapter 6238 - The Battle of Fortune

“It's the chains of order,” someone exclaimed. “These chains of order here must be the condensed power of order from the Heavenly Domain Battlefield, bolstered by fortune. How can one break through?” someone shouted. “How can one person break the fortune of an entire world?” People's hearts leapt into their throats. “Boom…” On the chains of order, endless runes flowed, and the luminous chains of order instantly turned golden. This was a celestial net, spanning the void like a heavenly chasm, severing the path forward, rendering humans as insignificant as ants before it. The most terrifying aspect was that this celestial net came with its own laws—either the net breaks or the person dies; there was no third outcome. Even a trace of fear in one's heart would render them incapable of facing this terrifying giant net, which had intercepted countless peerless geniuses over the ages. This was a terrifying giant net. The extraterritorial experts here had countless people who had once challenged the balance, unlike the Nine Heavens' experts. They challenged the balance simply out of defiance. All the experts who had ascended the balance five times came from the Nine Heavens, while on their side, no one had ever succeeded for countless years. Although the Heavenly Domain Battlefield had been dominated by them for so many years, ascending the balance had always been an indelible shadow. Countless experts had once issued challenges but ultimately failed beneath this celestial net. Those who failed either perished or had their will shattered, their dao heart broken, their cultivation never advancing, leading to a desolate life. And as this net appeared once more, the faces of the extraterritorial experts became extremely complicated. It was like a heavenly blade that could sever a person's future. Among the extraterritorial experts, there were countless geniuses and rampant monsters, but their ancestors had strictly forbidden them from challenging the balance, even ordering them to swear oaths to prevent them from acting recklessly. Now that the celestial net appeared, countless extraterritorial experts felt unwilling; they too wanted to challenge, but the old rules constrained them. “Boom…” As Long Chen gradually approached the giant net, the pressure upon it grew increasingly formidable, as if the power of an entire world was pressing down, capable of crushing all the heavens and myriad paths. “Fortune? Then I'll use my entire dragon aura to battle you, to determine superiority and life or death!” Long Chen shouted with a decisive roar, like a heavenly emperor bellowing, shaking the universe and reverberating through eternity. Then, the power of the dragon blood erupted. Long Chen's steps were firm, his gaze sharp. He believed he was invincible at that moment, and nothing could stop his steps, not even death. A divine ring appeared behind him, a giant dragon's shadow soaring, noble purple dragon blood unleashing a monstrous flame. His large hand opened towards the front, and a blood-colored cross emerged. “Emperor Blood Seal.” With a decisive shout from Long Chen, the sacred dragon's roar exploded like thunder. The dragon shadow within the divine ring behind Long Chen suddenly broke through the constraints of the ring, spanning across the Nine Heavens. The dragon's body, stretching for millions of miles, seemed to want to burst this world apart. When the dragon experts saw the enormous dragon shadow, they immediately felt their dragon blood rapidly circulating. Even the dragon experts within the Dragon Domain passage seemed to feel a summoning. The Master of the Domain and the elders were astonished, their mouths agape: “Is that... the remnant shadow of the Chaos Dragon Emperor?” “Boom.” Long Chen's palm struck the giant net, which trembled violently, yet did not shatter. “Trouble.” At that moment, the faces of the dragon experts, as well as most of the Nine Heavens' experts, changed dramatically. If he couldn't break through, the celestial net's pressure would backfire, and Long Chen would be instantly crushed. The fortune power of that world, let alone Long Chen, even a God Emperor might not endure it. “Boom…” However, the celestial net trembled, and the massive dragon shadow behind Long Chen danced. Long Chen seemed to have become a bridge between two forces. “Long Chen hasn't lost; he's still holding on,” the Master of the Domain said excitedly. “If the shadow behind Long Chen is truly the Dragon Emperor's, with the Dragon Emperor bearing the fortune of our dragon clan, he will surely overcome this celestial net,” shouted a confident dragon elder. “If Lord Long Chen hasn't crushed...” an elder couldn't help but say, but immediately fell silent. His words caused everyone's faces to change. Indeed, the emperor's crown had already been crushed by Long Chen, the dragon clan's fortune returned to them. Even if the Dragon Emperor's shadow appeared, how much help could it provide Long Chen? “Fortune? From the mortal realm to the immortal realm, I've trodden on blood and bones, facing thorns every step, never relying on luck to survive. I only believe in absolute power. Break!” Long Chen grasped the giant net, his dragon-scaled hand fiercely tugging. “Buzz.” Under Long Chen's terrifying strength, the giant net began to deform, astonishing countless people. “The pressure of this celestial net's fortune, though intangible yet substantial, isn't enough to directly suppress current-world experts. Its target is directly at Long Chen's dao heart. If there's even a crack in Long Chen's dao heart, a hint of fear, he would be utterly defeated,” the aged voice resounded again. “Facing the power of an entire world, confronting life and death choices, fearless and undaunted, with a dao heart as steadfast as a rock, what kind of inner strength is this?” someone exclaimed. “Boom…” At this moment, under Long Chen's powerful tug, the golden giant net had completely deformed. “Boom.” With a resounding explosion, the golden giant net shattered, turning into a rain of gold in the eyes of countless astonished onlookers. As the golden rain appeared, the divine ring behind Long Chen trembled, forming a massive vortex that absorbed all the golden rain. “This is…” “The golden rain contains the fortune laws of the Heavenly Domain Battlefield, and he absorbed it all.” “Truly, fortune is sought amidst danger. With so many fortune runes absorbed, what benefits will Long Chen gain?” For a time, people debated incessantly. Fortune power, an unspeakable, indescribable, yet undeniably existent supreme force. “With so many fortune runes absorbed, even if the balance tilts to the end, driving others away, he can remain unaffected, continuing to seek opportunities here,” the aged voice said. “If that's the case, Lord Long Chen wouldn't need to risk breaking through the next barrier,” the dragon experts felt their hearts burn with excitement. Upon hearing the elder's words, countless people felt conflicted. From Long Chen's perspective, he indeed shouldn't continue taking risks. But from the perspective of the Nine Heavens' world, they hoped Long Chen would continue to strive, to find hope to reverse the situation. However, they also knew this was unrealistic. Long Chen had already absorbed so much fortune power, so why take further risks? “Boom…” At this moment, the void beneath the balance boomed and burst with divine light, and people erupted in thunderous cheers: “Long Chen has chosen to continue striving.” Long Chen, wrapped in a massive light orb, soared upwards with unstoppable momentum, like a wild Kunpeng, intent on tearing through the sky and severing all shackles. “Boom…” At this moment, a barrier appeared before the golden balance. The barrier transformed instantly into a divine image. Upon seeing the divine image, Long Chen's pupils contracted sharply, and the experts who saw the image were shocked, their hair standing on end: “Ten Realms Diagram.”
