long chen had no choice but to run. he sensed three extremely terrifying auras rushing straight over here.
those three auras were different from the auras of ordinary cultivators. they possessed an ancient bloodline power, the specific aura of the ancient races. they had to be top geniuses of the ancient races.
for the bloodkill hall’s experts and the ancient races’ experts to appear at the same time, there was no chance of it being a coincidence. one of the four nations had definitely brought them.
and it was very likely that these people had entered solely to kill him. so without even thinking about it, long chen ran.
the fur boots on his feet lit up, and he crossed a dozen miles in a single step. he disappeared in an instant.
he had only just disappeared when three experts arrived. their leader was the eagle-eyed expert.
at this time, he had a huge pair of wings extended on his back, and he looked like a human-shaped bird. he started to chase after long chen but he stopped, his expression sinking. “we’re too late, he’s already gone.”
“what a waste. if we had gotten here just one step sooner, he’d never have been able to run,” said one of them, a large man with two long tusks protruding out of his mouth.
his voice was very deep, and it rumbled through the air powerfully. those two tusks didn’t bend inwards, but upwards, like elephant tusks.
in truth, this ancient race expert was a descendant of the human race and an ancient elephant race. he was born with innately great power.
the other one didn’t speak. his mouth was quite frightening. he had fangs and fur, and was a member of a tiger race.
adding on the eagle-eyed expert, the ancient races had sent out three races’ top junior disciples to kill long chen this time.
the ancient races had the pride of the ancient races. they needed to use disciples in the same realm to kill long chen, or they would be mocked.
the three of them were all rank eight celestials, and they had extremely powerful bloodlines which allowed them to inherit divine arts.
according to the ancient races’ estimate, any one of them would be enough to kill long chen. but to be sure, they had still sent three of them, as well as a dozen rank seven celestials.
the reason they had sent so many people was because they wanted to kill long chen before the bloodkill hall could get to him.
if long chen was killed by the bloodkill hall, he would become a stain on the ancient races’ pride that they would never be able to wash away.
having sensed the battle, the three of them had rushed over. the eagle-eyed expert was the fastest, but he had still been one step too late.
“fuck, those two twin assassins are way too ridiculous. both of them are rank eight celestials? how the hell did that manage to happen?”
long chen was speechless inside. if he had been fighting just one of them, he wouldn’t be afraid. even without using the arm protector or the boots, he’d be able to kill them.
but when the two worked together, their combat abilities multiplied, and their seamless cooperation and crafty tricks were very difficult to deal with.
they had made his movements a mess, and if he hadn’t used the arm protector and boots to heavily injure one, he wouldn’t have even had a chance to use the fourth form of split the heavens.
most disheartening of all, despite using those two hidden treasures, he still hadn’t been able to kill them. furthermore, he could vaguely sense that the two of them still had many trump cards that they hadn’t used.
he only had this one chance to cut them down, but he hadn’t succeeded. next time, they definitely wouldn’t give him such a good opportunity.
in their first fight, those assassins had completely suppressed him. now that they had experience in fighting him and had forced out his trump cards, it would be even more dangerous.
as for those three auras that had appeared at the end, they had also been extremely terrifying. their auras had caused his scalp to turn numb. that meant they had the power to push him to the brink of death.
long chen was now sure that he was being targeted within the four nations ancient remnant. someone had set up a death trap for him.
these people were different from li wanji or xia youluo. they were true experts, and their cultivation bases were piled up from the lives of countless experts.
although they were both in the late foundation forging realm and also rank eight celestials, in terms of combat power, these people were many times stronger than li wanji.
long chen’s heart felt a bit heavy now. before he could even think of coming up with a way to handle those twin assassins, another three more terrifying ancient race experts arrived. now there were five rank eight celestials after him, and he didn’t dare to go head-on against them.
what worried him the most was a certain bad feeling he had. there was no way the grand xia would have let those people in, so they had to have entered from either the grand han, grand zhou, or grand chu. regardless of which ancient nation they had come from, his main worry was their goal.
one nation had brought in enough people to exterminate the elites of all the other three ancient nations. if that nation was cooperating with the bloodkill hall and ancient races, then their goal was even more worrisome.
long chen knew that in accordance with the four nations’ agreement, each nation was permitted to allow at most one outsider disciple to enter the four nations ancient remnant. furthermore, their cultivation base could not surpass the average cultivation base of all the disciples.
long chen’s cultivation base was only at the fourth heavenstage of foundation forging, while the experts that entered the four nations ancient remnant were at least at the eighth heavenstage of foundation forging. over half were at the ninth heavenstage, and a portion of those people had reached the peak of that realm.
so the grand xia hadn’t broken the terms by doing this, but others had clearly gone against their treaty, making long chen feel a sense of dread. he hoped he hadn’t brought the grand xia trouble.
long chen was rushing away quickly in hopes of finding a good place to rest when huo long suddenly gave him a warning of danger.
heaven and earth suddenly shook as flames filled the air. everything within thousands of miles was locked down by flame chains. long chen instantly became a fish caught in a net.
