Originally, Long Chen only needed to face King Chujiang.
But at this moment, there were actually five ghost kings surrounding Long Chen at the same time.
King Yanluo, King Qinguang, King Lunhui, etc.
Each of these ghost kings was at least at the third level of Nirvana Tribulation, and any one of them could easily defeat Long Chen. Two of them could even stop an expert of Wenren Xi's level.
At this moment, Long Chen could be said to have instantly faced a terrifying crisis.
"Refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, ignorant fool." King Chujiang spoke in the voice of the City Lord of the Wronged.
Long Chen could even feel that the disgusting aura from their bodies had already wrapped around his body. It was a feeling that made him want to vomit.
"Long Chen."
Wenren Xi had already broken free from the encirclement of two ghost kings, and even repelled one of them. He was about to protect Long Chen, but he was still a step too late.
"Go to hell."
The City Lord of the Wronged didn't have the slightest intention of being polite.
The four ghost kings seemed to have seen the most delicious food. They opened their bloody mouths and bit towards Long Chen. Their power was strange, but it was completely able to resist the power of Nirvana.
Swoosh swoosh.
A pungent stench assaulted his nostrils.
In this extremely dangerous situation, Long Chen forced himself to calm down. He held the Golden Demon Subduing Staff that was formed by the combination of ten Golden Demon Subduing Columns. The violent suppression power made Long Chen feel like he had caught countless giant beasts.
Roar.
With the Golden Demon Subduing Staff in hand, when the four ghost kings approached, Long Chen's muscles tightened, and a huge power was released. He swung the shockingly heavy Golden Demon Subduing Column and danced wildly. The Golden Demon Subduing Column broke through space and swept towards the head of the ghost king closest to Long Chen.
Boom boom boom.
The Golden Demon Subduing Column was so powerful that it broke through space and let out a roar.
"Break!"
The Ghost King's attacks were hateful, but Long Chen was even more hateful than them. When the Golden Demon Subduing Column was sent flying, the Ghost King didn't even know how to dodge. He just kept attacking Long Chen, causing Long Chen to send him flying with a strike from his pole. A piece of flesh on his shoulder exploded.
However, this opportunity from the other three Ghost Kings had brought Long Chen a fatal crisis.
Long Chen gritted his teeth and instantly shrunk the Ancient Hell of Blood Formation to his chest. The moment the claws of the three Ghost Kings touched his body and sank into his flesh, the Ancient Hell of Blood Formation finally exploded, forming a huge blood-red shockwave that sent the three Ghost Kings surrounding him flying. Their chests were a bloody mess.
Long Chen's calmness and decisiveness allowed him to survive despite being surrounded by four Ghost Kings.
Because of the tearing of the Ghost Kings' claws, Long Chen looked down and saw that there were a few more deep claw marks on his body. He was sure that if he was a little slower, he would have been caught by these Ghost Kings and then eaten alive.
At this moment, Wenren Xi had already rushed in front of him and protected Long Chen.
"Are you alright?" Wenren Xi asked anxiously.
"I'm alright."
Long Chen's recovery speed was amazing. The injuries on his body recovered very quickly. Of the few Ghost Kings that appeared, three went to stop Ye Guyu, two dealt with the others, and five Ghost Kings, including King Chujiang, charged towards Long Chen and Wenren Xi again.
Their goal should be to stop Long Chen and the others from touching the two dark red eyeballs.
"No matter what, let's destroy those two things first. Otherwise, if they absorb the life force of hundreds of millions of living beings, the City Lord of the Wronged's plan will succeed." Long Chen looked up and said in shock.
Wenren Xi's expression was solemn.
He did not expect that there would be such a strong counterattack in this operation.
In fact, Long Chen almost died just now.
Looking up, Ye Guyu shook off the three Ghost Kings and rushed towards a dark red eyeball on the left.
There were a total of five Ghost Kings charging over. Wenren Xi shook off Long Chen and said, "I'll deal with them. When the Realm Lord destroys those two things, I'll take you away."
Great Emperor Zhenwu had told Wenren Xi that no matter what happened, he had to prioritize Long Chen's life.
The strength of a Martial Venerable was at the fourth Nirvana Realm. He was a super expert that Long Chen had never seen before. When his cultivation was truly displayed, it surpassed ordinary Ghost Kings. Just now, there were two Ghost Kings that could hold Wenren Xi back, but when Wenren Xi really went crazy, he could hold off five of them alone.
For a moment, Long Chen actually had nothing to do.
He stood outside the battlefield and could better control the overall situation. Although the other warriors could hold up against the two Ghost Kings for now, as time went on, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Fighting five Ghost Kings was already Wenren Xi's limit. Next, it all depended on whether Ye Guyu could complete the mission.
Long Chen was very nervous, but he could not help. He had used the Golden Demon Subduing Column several times in a row, almost exhausting his strength. For the current him, the consumption of the Golden Demon Subduing Column was too great.
"Child …"
Suddenly, he heard the voice of the City Lord of the Wronged.
Long Chen shuddered and hurriedly looked around. With Wenren Xi protecting him, there seemed to be no enemies around. Where did the voice of the City Lord of the Wronged come from?
Lifting his head, he saw the Demon Tree swaying in the wind. That black girl-like tree trunk was filled with a strange charm. The two eyes at the top were dark red, releasing a large amount of miasma and swallowing life force. One of the eyes had already formed, and at this moment, it was staring straight at him. The dark red eyeball rolled around, causing Long Chen's heart to freeze.
"Let me ask you one last time. I cherish your talent. I only want to ask you, are you willing to follow me into battle? My divine might is not something you can imagine. If you can follow me, I guarantee that you will have power a hundred times stronger than you have today, endless money, and beautiful women."
Those charming eyes never left Long Chen's body.
Being stared at by it, Long Chen felt a chill run down his spine, but he wasn't afraid. He consciously retreated and looked at it coldly. "Don't say anymore. I'll make you pay for this debt of eighty million lives, old bastard."
The City Lord of the Wronged chuckled. His laughter was very presumptuous as he said, "They're all just incompetent ants. If I were in the Eternal God Domain, I would be able to recover my sight by absorbing the life force of several thousand people. But here, I need a hundred million. There are far more than a hundred million such worthless beasts in the Dragon Sacrificial Continent. Just in the Supreme Yin Demon Realm alone, there are billions of them."
He lamented, "Billions … Just how many of these incompetent beasts are there in the Three Regions and Nine Worlds? And how many are there in the Dragon Sacrificial Continent? Eighty million dead is just a small number, not worth mentioning. For such insignificant beasts to have me lead them to their afterlife, this is the greatest relief I can give them. They should thank me."
Long Chen could not tolerate this guy anymore.
Despite his anger, he appeared calm. He laughed coldly. "People of different principles cannot make plans together. I am also one of the beasts in your eyes. But old man, from today onwards, that little kindness you have shown me no longer exists. I will not be polite with your God Slaying Sword, and you will not be able to take back your True Martial Thearch Soul. Today, you killed eighty million of my people. One day, I will make you regret what you have done today."
"Is that so? If that is the case, why don't I send your soul to the next world today?"
Above the Demon Tree, the eye that had already formed was spinning rapidly.
Long Chen suddenly felt a sense of danger.
His intuition told him that it was very dangerous.
At that moment, he exerted his top speed and fled backward with all his might. At that moment, the dark red eye emitted a dark red ray of light. No matter how fast Long Chen fled, that ray of light instantly hit Long Chen.
"Golden Demon Suppressing Pillar."
In a moment of desperation, Long Chen mobilized all the Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars. He could concentrate all the energy of the Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars on his body to protect himself. The shadows of the ninety-nine Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars surrounded Long Chen tightly. They rotated at high speed and dissipated that dark red ray of light.
Even so, Long Chen still suffered a near-fatal injury.
If not for the Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars, this attack from the City Lord of the Wronged would have broken his body.
His internal organs were shaken, and he was seriously injured. Blood gushed out of his mouth as Long Chen crashed into the ground.
"That was close."
Long Chen endured his injuries and quickly got up. Luckily, he had the Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars.
However, just when he thought that the crisis was over, an even greater crisis arrived.
When Long Chen mobilized all the energy of the Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars, the Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars in the God Kingdom dimmed a little. At that moment, the beautiful girl in the crystal ice coffin suddenly opened her eyes and let out an ear-piercing shriek.
"Suppress."
Long Chen was shocked and hurriedly retracted the energy of the Golden Demon Suppressing Pillars. In order to save his life, he did not pay attention to the movements of the City Lord of the Wronged's heart. He could only forcefully suppress the beautiful girl back, but …
That shriek was obviously a warning to the City Lord of the Wronged.
In that instant, the ten ghost kings suddenly stopped what they were doing and looked at Long Chen with burning eyes.
"My heart, my heart, my heart."
The ten ghost kings actually spoke at the same time. They used a ferocious and crazed tone as they stared at Long Chen. It was as if they had gone mad, and their eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets.
"Stop them."
Long Chen understood that he was in big trouble this time.
Zhenwu the Great had warned him not to make any mistakes and let the City Lord of the Wronged know that the heart was in his body. But now that the City Lord of the Wronged had discovered it, he would definitely launch an endless pursuit.
Even at this time, the ten ghost kings were already in a frenzy.
Wenren Xi was in the know. In his shock, he hurriedly blocked the five ghost kings beside him, at all costs.
At that moment, there was a poof. The dark red eyeball broke free from the demon tree and rushed towards Long Chen.
