Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts - Chapter 6488 Fear
Chapter 6488 Fear
The Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race arrived with over a hundred thousand experts. Golden light blazed from their bodies as they charged after the dragon race, golden staves gleaming in their hands.
As the golden tide rushed in, Chi Wufeng turned and roared, ready to counterattack.
“Hmph, some bastard monkeys think that they can act arrogant? I’ll kill you all!”
But Mo Yang caught his arm. “Remember, protecting Long Chen is what matters most. They show up now just to distract us. Don’t fall for it.”
Although the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race had over a hundred thousand experts, Mo Yang did not see them as a real threat. But if they were to be bogged down by them, it would be troublesome.
Now, Mo Yang’s top priority was to reach the core battlefield and support Meng Qi and the others. They couldn’t afford to be delayed because of this.
“Wufeng, take the vanguard,” Mo Yang ordered. “Break through their defenses and link up with our allies. I’ll hold the rear and stop them from interfering.”
“Alright.”
Chi Wufeng had an explosive temperament, but he trusted Mo Yang’s judgment. So, he directly charged to the frontline and opened up a path for the dragon race through the chaotic battlefield.
With so many enemies in their way, breaking through wouldn’t be easy.
With his blood-colored broadsword—an ancient treasure he had claimed in the heaven region’s battlefield—he cleaved through enemies, sending a faction leader flying in a spray of blood.
“Kill!”
As the vanguard, Chi Wufeng was a blade of living fury. Every swing of his broadsword split open a path through the chaos, and the dragon race’s advance quickened behind him.
Meanwhile, Mo Yang led the rear guard, fighting off the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkeys as they retreated.
“Dragon race, you’ve really declined. We are just one of many branches in the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race, and you can’t even handle us?” a golden-armored man shouted from among the monkeys.
Emboldened by his shout, the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkeys fought even more ferociously, charging forward without fear. To them, suppressing the dragon race was an honor that would bring glory to their ancestors. They had to do it well.
Mo Yang steadily retreated, commanding his warriors with calm precision while studying the enemy. What he saw surprised him. Since when did the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race become this powerful? Over thirty monkeys at the front and the rear possessed essence runes.
By comparison, only nine of Mo Yang’s comrades, himself included, had condensed essence runes. Still, he wasn’t afraid of the monkeys.
After all, his warriors were no longer the fragile flowers raised in peace. Each had survived the carnage of the heaven region’s battlefield and emerged a true veteran, exuding sharp killing intent.
Moreover, several dragon experts had reached the threshold of condensing essence runes. Even without crossing it, their combat power rivaled those who had.
The Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race, on the other hand, was lacking in control. Their attacks were wild and unfocused—the sign of an unstable foundation built on forced breakthroughs.
So while it appeared that the dragon race was being pressed back, they were, in truth, conserving strength. They expended little energy as they retreated in an orderly fashion.
As this bloody battle raged, the stars in the sky continued to flash, connecting into starry diagrams. Their light converged upon the Earth Cauldron, flashing rhythmically. With every pulse, a star diagram branded itself onto its surface until the entire cauldron was draped in a bright astral robe.
Within these star diagrams, the Earth Cauldron’s body became translucent, revealing the world inside.
Three thousand Heavenly Star Daffodils floated in that space, bathed in surging primal chaos qi. Within it, a vague figure sat cross-legged.
“Long Chen…”
Meng Qi and the others trembled. Seeing Long Chen safe and sound filled their hearts with relief.
Petals drifted within the cauldron’s astral robe, each with a spinning vortex of starlight. These whirlpools drew in the energy of heaven and earth like a whale drinking from the sea. The primal chaos world inside was being continuously nourished.
The area around the Earth Cauldron had become a supreme spirit-gathering formation. Now, it seemed like it was going to absorb all the energy in the heaven region’s battlefield.
Even the fighters could feel the energy of heaven and earth filling this battlefield. If not for their battle frenzy, they could have absorbed it and gained immensely. But under the Earth Cauldron’s pull, all that energy flowed inward instead.
“If this is what’s happening outside… how terrifying must it be inside?” someone muttered.
“Is Long Chen using the Earth Cauldron to refine heaven and earth?!”
The Earth Cauldron was one of the strongest divine weapons under the heavens. What was impossible for other artifacts was entirely within its power. Energy and karmic luck poured toward it without end, vanishing into its depths.
“Damn it! We can’t let him succeed! Otherwise…” a nine heaven expert muttered, his voice trembling as his mind filled with dread.
This man was from a faction hostile to Long Chen. If they failed to kill him here, then when he emerged… With his character, his vengeance would be unthinkable.
“The nine heavens have produced a monster! We must warn our race and kill him!”
“Quick, spread the news! We cannot allow him to succeed, or we’ll all die!”
“Where the Earth Cauldron ends up is no longer important! Long Chen must die! Here and now!”
The enemies were terrified by this sight. No one dared to imagine what Long Chen would become once he awakened.
“Kill!”
Desperate cries filled the air as messengers spread the alarm across their factions.
Seeing this, Mo Yang took a deep breath and prepared to switch tactics. He exclaimed, “It seems that we have to go all-out now!”
Just then, two new forces swept across the sky.
“The Starry River Sect has come to reinforce Master Long Chen!”
“The High Firmament Academy has come to reinforce Dean Long Chen!”
