The Black Rock Tribe was shrouded in a tense atmosphere. It seemed that something had happened. This was the most critical moment to test one's observational skills. He knew that those old guys in the Dragon Dance Hall must be monitoring his every move at this moment and then analyzing his actions. It would be boring if he always paid attention to these things.
Long Chen did not want to pay attention to them at all. He sat down and concentrated on his own things.
In the hard fortress of the Black Rock Tribe, the gate opened. Three Dark Survivors, who looked very distinguished at first glance, came out and hurried down the mountain.
These three people were somewhat different from the ordinary Dark Survivors.
The two on the left and right looked similar. They were more than three meters tall, and their bodies were full of the aura of Nirvana power. There was a black moon-like accessory hanging on their necks. Their muscles were bulging, and they were full of the visual impact of the wilderness.
Long Chen knew that these two should be the barbarian generals of the Dark Survivors. They had the strength of the first Nirvana Tribulation.
The teenager in the middle was special. The skin of the Dark Survivors was relatively dark, but this teenager was ridiculously dark. Even his lips were black like a piece of coal. However, this teenager was relatively thin. His height was similar to Long Chen's, and his body was also similar to Long Chen's. However, his skeleton was much bigger than Long Chen's, so he looked very thin. In fact, this teenager was much more delicate than the other Dark Survivors.
The others were wearing tattered animal skins, and only he had clean cotton clothes.
Therefore, Long Chen inferred that his identity should be relatively distinguished.
"This teenager should be the 'Holy Son' of the Dark Survivors."
Long Chen carefully recalled that it seemed that in this relatively weak Black Rock Tribe, the most powerful warrior was a warrior of the third Nirvana Tribulation.
This warrior also had the highest status. Below him, there was also a weak but very high position, and that was the Holy Son.
Before the Nirvana Tribulation Realm, the warriors of the Dark Survivors practiced on a completely different path from the Human Clan and the Demon Clan.
It was not until they reached a level similar to the God Martial Arts Realm that they had specific divisions. According to the difference in strength, they would wear different accessories on their chests.
Those with crescent moons on their chests were called Black Fang Warriors. There were nine levels, from One Fang Warrior to Nine Fang Warrior. The strength of a Nine Fang Warrior was similar to that of the ninth level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm. They wore nine crescent moons on their chests. For example, the Saint had seven crescent moons, which meant that his fighting strength was around the seventh level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm.
A Nine-fanged Warrior, after crossing the Nirvana Tribulation, would have the qualifications to wear a full moon.
For example, these two barbarian generals.
Above the Barbarian Generals, after crossing two Nirvana Tribulations, they would have the qualifications to serve the Gods. They would be able to wear grey clothes and have the title of Grey Priest. In a tribe, there would be more than ten Grey Priests, and in a powerful tribe, there would be more than thirty.
From this, it could be seen that the power of the Dark Nation was actually stronger than the average Nine Realms.
There were a total of eight major tribes among the Dark Remnant. Basically, the ordinary tribes were controlled by a martial artist who had crossed three Nirvana Tribulations. This martial artist who had crossed three Nirvana Tribulations was qualified to wear the most sacred black robe and serve the gods as a black priest.
There were a total of about ten black priests in the Dark Nation.
As for the experts who were comparable to Martial Venerables, it was unknown whether they still existed in the Dark Nation. They were martial artists who had crossed four Nirvana Tribulations. If they existed, they would be the commander of the entire Dark Remnant and have the title of Barbarian King.
Barbarian General, Grey Priest, Black Priest, and Barbarian King.
These four were the ranks above the Nirvana Tribulation Realm of the Dark Remnant.
Rank represented status.
As for those whose strength was far inferior, but whose status was higher than that of the Grey Priest, second only to the Black Priest who controlled a tribe, should be the Son of each tribe.
The Son of Darkness was the only one who could come into contact with the statue of the Dark Goddess, clean the statue, and serve the statue. He must be the purest Son of Darkness. The only criterion was the skin color. Only a person with pure black skin color had the constitution of the Son of Darkness and the qualifications to be the Son of Darkness.
In the belief of the Dark Remnant, the Dark Goddess was pure. Only the Son of Darkness could enter the place where the Dark Goddess was worshiped. But even he could only enter at special times.
If Long Chen had not read the information given by Wenren Xi, he would not have known about the Son of Darkness.
This was very crucial. When he saw the Son of Darkness, Long Chen overturned all the plans he had thought of. The first thing he thought of was that this guy might bring him a surprise. This was intuition, and it was also a manifestation of the ability to adapt to changing circumstances and make decisions.
The three of them left anxiously. They must have something on their minds.
Without saying anything, Long Chen turned around and left the Black Rock Tribe, quietly following the three of them.
"I know nothing about the location of the statue of the Dark Goddess, as well as the current situation of the Dark Nation and the Dark Remnant. Senior Wenren's information came from tens of thousands of years ago. There must have been great changes today. I have to find out something from this guy. He is only a Seven-Fanged Warrior, and soul control is still useful …"
Long Chen was ready to take the Son of Darkness hostage.
But in fact, soul control would make a person's mind fuzzy, and it was not particularly safe. So, Long Chen decided to observe the situation.
All success had an element of luck. He was lucky to meet the Son of Darkness today.
In the Dragon Dance Hall, the higher-ups who had been holding their breath and watching Yang Chen and Feng Zhilin's performance finally saw Long Chen's actions.
"Who is that young man? Those who can wear normal clothes seem to have a higher status."
"Yeah, I think so too."
At this moment, someone said, "I remember that there is a position called the Son of Darkness. Looking at that young man's clothes, he should be the Son of Darkness. He is the only person who can get close to the statue of the Dark Goddess."
As soon as this was said, everyone was instantly excited.
What shocked them the most was that Long Chen knew about this too.
Everyone shook their heads. They felt that it was impossible. Long Chen was just lucky.
"Even if he is the Son of Darkness, so what? Yang Chen has almost gotten the statue of the Dark Goddess. To him, it is just like catching a turtle in a jar," Hall Master Hanwu mocked.
Many people were helpless.
In fact, Yang Chen's method wasn't particularly appropriate. After all, it was not easy to get the statue even for their own people. Perhaps the entry point that Long Chen found was more suitable.
Long Chen knew that the other party must have something up. As soon as they left the Black Rock tribe, they sped up.
They didn't enter the forest, but left quickly along it.
Long Chen took out the map and looked at the direction they were heading. The destination was another tribe called the Black Smoke tribe. This was the tribe where Feng Zhilin did her mission.
"Why are they going to the Black Smoke tribe?" With this thought, Long Chen hid in the forest and followed them.
He didn't dare to make the first move. After all, this place was very close to the Black Rock tribe. If he made any noise and the Gray and Black Priests came out, he would probably lose his life here.
Among the Gray Priests, there were also people like Wenren Jingtao. Long Chen couldn't deal with them.
The Black Priest was a cultivator close to the Hall Master of Hanwu. They were a huge threat.
After walking for about an hour, they finally left the vicinity of the Black Rock tribe. It was estimated that they wouldn't be able to affect the other side. Just as Long Chen was about to make a move, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
He didn't rush to make a move. Instead, he started to think.
"If I directly control the soul, there will be a huge loophole. I should wait and see how this guy treats the human race."
Thinking of this, Long Chen used a safe method.
He disappeared on the spot and rushed into the depths of the forest.
In the Dragon Dance Hall, everyone was speechless.
"This kid actually gave up chasing the Son of the Darkness Remnant. He must be sick in the head."
Even those who supported Long Chen were speechless when they saw Long Chen make such a strange choice. One must know that the Son of Darkness was very important to the statue.
Wasn't there something wrong with Long Chen's brain if he suddenly gave up after following for an hour?
He wasted an opportunity for nothing.
However, what exactly was Long Chen going to do?
In the bronze mirror, Long Chen used his fastest speed and dashed into the forest. The area in front of him became more and more sinister, and the shadows of the trees moved rapidly behind him. In the Dragon Dance Hall, everyone gradually heard a violent beast roar.
"It's the toad beast from before. Why is Long Chen looking for it?"
Everyone couldn't help but be confused.
When Long Chen suddenly appeared, the toad Savage Beast, which was circling on the spot, immediately went berserk.
Long Chen was stunned. He saw a sword mark with the word "Heaven" on the forehead of the toad beast.
Without a doubt, it was carved by him.
This was the toad beast that he had killed.
Wild beasts were really magical creatures.
Long Chen did not have time to think too much. He quickly turned around. The toad Savage Beast let out a series of roars and used its powerful hind legs to burst forth with terrifying speed as it chased after Long Chen.
And the direction that Long Chen was heading in was the direction that the Son of Darkness and the others were heading in.
At this rate, they would definitely meet on the road.
"He's going to attack the two Barbarian Generals and the Son of Darkness with this beast. He should be able to deal with the two Barbarian Generals with his own strength," the higher-ups in the Dragon Dance Hall were discussing.
They didn't understand Long Chen's strange actions.
However, they were all smart people. Very quickly, someone said, "Could it be that he wants to gain the trust of the Darkness Saint? Heavens, does he not know that the Darkness Remnant Race hates all humans to the bone and wants nothing more than to kill them? How could there be trust?"
