All in all, the third possibility was the most likely. But who was that person? Why did he do it? Why did he know that Long Chen needed this thing? Or did he just randomly place it here, or it just appeared naturally?
Long Chen's mind was a mess, but he didn't care anymore. He already had the strength to use the eighth level of the Nine Dragons Scripture. This Purple-Blood Demonic Dragon's scale would play a crucial role in improving his combat power.
So, with a wave of his hand, he kept the scale that once belonged to the Purple-Blood Demonic Dragon.
Up until now, the Nine Dragons Scripture had eight scales from different divine dragons. The first six levels were one level, and the last three levels were one level.
There were billions and billions of divine dragons in the Primordial Era, but only a few were left now.
After taking the Purple Blood Demon Dragon's Dragon Scale, the three of them left the plaza and hid in a relatively sealed but intact room next to the plaza. Long Chen believed that even the Ten Great Ghost Kings would not be able to destroy this room, so it was temporarily safe.
Long Chen took out the Purple-Blood Demonic Dragon's scale. The smell of purple blood lingered in the small space. Long Chen raised his head and asked, "What do you guys think?"
Mo Xiaolang scratched his head and said helplessly, "I'm as confused as you."
Li Xuanji fell into a state of deep thought. After a long time, she shook her head in distress and said, "I have a feeling that someone must be familiar with your situation and then left this thing here, waiting for you to come back. But who is this person? In any case, I don't think it's the ghost king that chased us."
Her thoughts were basically the same as Long Chen's.
"Big Brother, don't think so much. Use this to cultivate the Nine Dragons Scripture. I don't think that thing appears so frequently, and I forgot to be on guard just now. A Purple-Blood Demonic Dragon's scale can increase your strength by a lot. You cultivate, and I'll be on guard at the door to guard you. It'll be fine," Mo Xiaolang said.
He wasn't a weakling either. The reason why he was injured the first time was purely because he didn't expect his opponent to be so strong. He didn't believe that his opponent could still do anything when he was on full alert. Besides, even if he couldn't, Long Chen could still wake up from his cultivation state.
In any case, the outside world was still in turmoil, and the Ghost Tribe was running amok. Since they had nothing to do, they might as well increase their strength. Long Chen nodded readily. After telling them to be careful, he began to study the eighth stage of the Nine Dragons Scripture.
It could be said that the higher the level of the Nine Dragons Scripture, the more powerful it would be. Previously, the power of the seventh level of the Nine Dragons Scripture was already equivalent to Long Chen's Extreme Universe Finger. Now that he had cultivated it to the eighth level, the power of the Nine Dragons Scripture would definitely surpass the killing move of the Extreme Universe Finger, unless the Extreme Universe Finger evolved to an even higher level.
Leveling up the Extreme Cosmic Finger was rather difficult. Thus, for the time being, cultivating the eighth level of the Nine Dragons Scripture was the fastest method.
With the previous few experiences, although it was difficult to integrate another layer of energy into it, hard work paid off. Long Chen had long understood the knack and was extremely familiar with it. It was only a matter of time before he succeeded in cultivating it.
The thing that puzzled him the most was who had given him such an opportunity.
Only God knew.
Mo Xiaolang didn't dare to be negligent. He was always on guard. Li Xuanji also assisted him on the side. Both of them were waiting for Long Chen to succeed.
About a day later, people had explored the entire ruins of the Tiewei Mountain. When they returned to the square, they gathered in twos and threes. Among them, the members of the Ancient Yuan Spirit World and the Ancient Thunder Reservoir teams had also returned. They gathered together and glanced over at Mo Xiaolang from time to time.
The five handsome young men and women of the Ancient Yuan Spirit World were like fairies. Their appearances were enviable.
Yuan Xiaozhou was the best among them.
During this period, some people went out to take a look. The Ghost Clan was still rampaging outside. There was no way out. Thus, everyone waited patiently. Some even decided to stay here. The riot of the Ghost Clan had already affected the game of the 12 Supreme Alliances. It was fine if the game didn't continue.
On the third day, Long Chen was almost familiar with the eighth level of the Nine Dragons Scripture. The scale of the Purple Blood Demonic Dragon was about to be integrated into his chest. The eight scales formed a ring. Only the scale of the demon dragon was left to complete the ring.
Just as he was about to finish, there was a commotion outside.
The two people from the Solar Divine Realm staggered back to the square with their bodies covered in blood. Seeing their miserable appearance, everyone immediately panicked and became extremely vigilant. There had been a total of five people from the Solar Divine Realm, but now there were only two left. Furthermore, they were missing an arm or a leg. What exactly had happened?
For a moment, everyone was in an uproar. Could it be that what Long Chen had said about the Ghost King was actually true?
Everyone felt their hair stand on end.
Many people hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
The two warriors from the Solar Divine World looked around with hatred. Finally, they fixed their eyes on Mo Xiaolang and Li Xuanji, who were standing at the door of the small house in the distance. They roared angrily. Their clothes were already dyed red with blood, but they didn't seem to notice it. They rushed over and shouted, "Murderous thieves, I want to avenge my brothers from the Solar Divine World. Come out and fight!"
"What?"
Everyone was frightened. Could it be that it wasn't the Ghost King who made them act like this, but the team from the Evil Dragon Palace? How was that possible?
While everyone was confused, the two warriors from the Solar Divine World had already rushed in front of Li Xuanji and the others. They looked at them ferociously and were about to make a move. Several experts from the Ancient Yuan Spirit Domain and the Desolate Ancient Thunder Reservoir rushed over. Among them, Yuan Xiaozhou used his spirit technique to restrain one of them, making him unable to move. Then, he asked, "What happened? If you have something to say, speak slowly. If they did something wrong, we definitely won't just stand by and watch."
When the warrior was stopped, his anger turned into tears. As he cried and struggled, he shouted, "It's them! They wanted to ally with us, but they launched a sneak attack. Three of our brothers died, and even the two of us were in danger. If we weren't lucky enough to survive and recover after three days, our team from the Solar Divine World would have been annihilated by them."
The other warrior glared at Long Chen and the others and scolded sternly, "You are really cruel. You used this method to annihilate the previous team, didn't you? First, you used the excuse of allying with them to gain their trust, then suddenly killed them. You definitely succeeded without anyone knowing. You killed them all, but you didn't expect the two of us to still be alive and miraculously survive. Evil Dragon Palace team, I want you to pay the price."
As they insisted, the others also had angry expressions. Everyone gradually surrounded them and looked at Li Xuanji and Mo Xiaolang aggressively.
Everyone could accept it if it happened the first time, but if it happened a second time, they could no longer tolerate it. Otherwise, what would they do if it happened to them again?
Long Chen had reached the final juncture. He knew that what happened outside was just a false accusation. He could see it clearly and sneered in his heart. However, he still continued to complete the last part of the eighth stage of the Nine Dragons Scripture.
Mo Xiaolang faced them alone. He was strong, so his aura was naturally strong. At this moment, he looked at everyone coldly and said, "We came here three days ago. From the beginning to the end, we didn't talk to your team from the Solar Divine Realm. What do you mean by allying with you? Are you sure that the people you met were really us and that you weren't deceived by some strange technique?"
The expressions of the people from the Ancient Yuan Spirit World changed. Yuan Xiaozhou said coldly, "Mo Xiaolang, are you saying that our team from the Ancient Yuan Spirit World is framing you? You're too ridiculous. I saw that you were an expert and respected you before. I didn't expect you to be a coward who didn't dare to admit your wrongdoings."
"You're right."
In the Desolate Ancient Thunder Pool, the burly man at the Great Perfection of the Martial Path also said angrily, "A man should admit to what he did. Mo Xiaolang, don't make me look down on you. These people from the Ancient Yuan Spirit World have been with us all this time. How dare you say that they're framing you? Do you think that our brothers from the Solar Divine Realm are fools? Do you think that we can't see clearly whether it was the spirit technique or you guys?"
For a moment, the people from the five teams present all pointed their fingers at Mo Xiaolang.
Mo Xiaolang clenched his fists. He knew what was going on, but he was no match for the Ancient Yuan Spirit World team in a battle of words.
If it weren't for Long Chen's instructions, he wouldn't have bothered to waste time with these guys. He would have directly attacked them.
Li Xuanji was also very angry. The feeling of being wronged was not a good one. She knew that Yuan Xiaozhou was probably targeting them because he was afraid of them.
However, he was very ambitious.
Therefore, they could only take advantage of the situation to attack Long Chen and the others.
Li Xuanji took a step forward. Her pretty face was filled with coldness. She was also not a person who could be easily bullied. She said straightforwardly, "Solar Divine Realm, you fought with us from the Supreme Yin Demon World for so long in vain. You have no brains at all. Let me tell you, we definitely won't do anything sneaky. Don't be used by others. You might think that you've taken revenge, but the real enemy is pretending to help you."
"What?"
The two people from the Solar Divine Realm did not believe her at all. In a situation where hatred had clouded their minds, they believed their own eyes even more. The first person to attack was "Li Xuanji." This could not be wrong. In addition, the Solar Divine Realm and the Supreme Yin Demon World were enemies. One of the warriors cursed, "You poisonous woman, how dare you say such things. If I didn't believe you, we wouldn't have died."
