"Long Chen."
City Lord Di Jun's last two words reverberated in everyone's ears.
Some people began to show hatred in their eyes and killing intent. In fact, they had come here today to slay the demon.
In their eyes, Long Chen was also an uncontrollable demon.
He would bring disaster to the Human Clan sooner or later.
"City Lord Di Jun is right. Long Chen is obstinate, unruly, cruel, and a murderous demon. Coupled with his extraordinary talent and the fact that he is the son of the Eternal Dragon Emperor, he will definitely be a great threat to the Human Clan in the future. If we don't get rid of him today, he will definitely bring a catastrophe to us in the future."
"That's right. In order to prevent all life in the world from suffering, we can't let him escape today, even if we have to take the risk. Otherwise, if he becomes the new Eternal Dragon Emperor, we will all be in danger."
For a time, almost everyone echoed Di Jun's words enthusiastically. Although they hadn't done anything, they had already become ferocious devils from their words.
City Lord Di Jun smiled at the sight of this fiery and hateful scene.
He knew very well how terrifying that young man was. If he was not killed today, everyone would have to bow down to him in the future. If they wanted to avenge Di Yu, there would be even less of a chance. For the Di Jun Divine City, Di Yu was simply their hope. He was everyone's darling. He was the faith and hope of all the martial artists in the Di Jun Divine City, but Long Chen had cruelly destroyed him. After hearing this news, even City Lord Di Jun vomited three liters of blood.
"Wait and see. If the five great Dragon Cities do not respond within two hours, I will kill him directly. I will not care about anything else."
After two hours, the five great Dragon Cities still did not respond. This was almost a tacit agreement.
As long as they did not resist strongly, he would have a chance …
In the Demon Fall Valley, there was a sea of people.
Just when the cursing was at its peak, a figure appeared in the sky above the ring-shaped mountain.
It was a skinny old man with a snow-white spiritual pagoda rotating in his hand. It was the Emperor's Essence Pagoda.
Without a doubt, this old man was Di Ku.
Long Chen was in Di Ku's Emperor Essence Pagoda.
His arrival instantly silenced the clamoring crowd. Everyone held their breaths, and their eyes gradually became cold and fierce, hiding a thick killing intent. They began to be filled with anticipation, because Long Chen had come.
He was the one being slaughtered.
"City Lord."
Di Ku first bowed to City Lord Di Jun.
City Lord Di Jun smiled with gratification and said, "You've made a great contribution this time, and you'll be heavily rewarded when you return. Besides that, release the traitor's son. I want to see how he'll be able to face the experts of the world."
"Let him out."
"Release Long Chen and let us deal with him."
The surrounding martial artists started to clamor arrogantly. In reality, many of the things that Long Chen had done had been exaggerated in the Dragon God Domain. In everyone's eyes, he was already an unforgivable villain.
Seeing this, Di Ku was very satisfied. He sneered at the Emperor's Essence Pagoda and said, "Little guy, your time has come."
During these ten days, Long Chen paid no attention to anything happening in the outside world. He was completely focused on cultivating. This determination moved Di Ku. Moreover, he was acutely aware that Long Chen seemed to have made great progress during these ten days of cultivation, and had even advanced to a whole new level.
That's right.
Long Chen had taken advantage of this period of time to reach the late stage of the One Origin Tribulation.
The increase in Samsara power led to an increase in his overall strength, causing his battle power to undergo another transformation and reach a more profound level.
As for what was happening outside, he had a rough idea.
His strength had just stabilized after the breakthrough when he heard Di Ku's voice.
It had actually only been a month since he had broken through to the One Origin Tribulation. To be able to complete a task that would take others hundreds of years to complete in such a short time, his talent was indeed invincible. Even a genius like Lingxi, who was second only to him, was far inferior to him.
"Then the Demon Slaying Gathering will begin."
Li Xuanji sat on a tree branch in the new world and reminded softly.
There were definitely countless experts outside. Almost all the experts of the 72 Ancient Cities of Divine Descendants were gathered here.
"Don't worry, it's just a bunch of clowns."
Long Chen stood up and said with a smile.
At this moment, a suction force pulled him out of the Emperor's Essence Pagoda and smashed him into the Demon Slaying Valley below. The force was very strong, and it was obvious that it wanted to embarrass Long Chen. However, Long Chen did not panic. He turned around in the air and landed steadily on the ground.
Buzz.
Hundreds of thousands of gazes landed on him.
It was like countless mountains were pressing down on him, bringing him a terrifying level of pressure. Moreover, this pressure was filled with killing intent and malice. In this world, apart from Long Chen, there was probably no one who could resist the pressure of so many experts.
However, he gritted his teeth and stood up straight on the ground. He raised his head and scanned the surroundings. His sharp and cold gaze directly met everyone's gaze. Although there were countless experts in the surroundings, there was not a single gaze that could scare Long Chen into retreating.
In the eyes of the crowd, the young man who had been thrown out of the Emperor's Essence Pagoda was full of arrogance. Even in the face of such a scene, he was actually not frightened.
He faced hundreds of thousands of people alone, and he did not retreat a single step.
In terms of courage, how many people in this world could compare to Long Chen?
The confrontation between the two of them, one against hundreds of thousands, lasted for a short moment.
Long Chen had imagined such a scene countless times in the past. He knew that such a scene would happen sooner or later, and today's scene was even bigger than he had imagined.
"There are actually so many people who want to kill me? Just how did I provoke all of you? And what did I do wrong to make so many people want to kill me right now?"
Long Chen laughed inwardly.
He was not afraid. Instead, he found it laughable. In order to kill him, the people of the seventy-two Divine Cities of the Dragon God Region had actually traveled tens of thousands of kilometers to this place and held this Devil Slaying Conference, creating such a huge scene. And he, a mere junior who had not even reached a hundred years of age, had already caused them to be so afraid.
Laughable. Pathetic.
He looked around and saw the eyes of the hundreds of thousands of people. Some were fierce, some were hateful, some were evasive, and some were threatening. The majority of them were filled with intense hostility toward him. There were even some experts who revealed traces of fear in their eyes. Clearly, they had been scared stiff by Long Chen.
"Are you afraid of me or afraid of my father?"
In the end, Long Chen's gaze stopped on City Lord Di Jun. This Eight Trigrams Samsara expert was equivalent to the Glorious Dragon Emperor and the Dark Dragon Emperor. His strength was inferior to Yang You and Xue Chi.
City Lord Di Jun specifically targeted Long Chen. That terrifying pressure was something that Long Chen could not resist. That pair of eyes that were like the sun swept across Long Chen's body.
"Long Chen."
A soft shout like a great bell shook Long Chen's blood and qi.
Long Chen quickly suppressed that boiling blood and qi. He knew that City Lord Di Jun was the mastermind behind all of this. "You can wait for your death.
"You can just wait to die. Today, we are holding the Devil Slaughtering Assembly to kill a fiendish villain like you, to remove a great threat to our human race and avert a calamity. Just obediently surrender. You've already committed a grave mistake, so don't expect the five great dragon cities to release you. I've already asked the five great dragon cities about today's matter. There are still two hours left. If the five great dragon cities don't respond by then, that means they've tacitly agreed to your execution. You should enjoy these last two hours."
"Two hours."
Of course, Long Chen understood that if there was no reply from the five great Dragon Cities within two hours, this guy would not show mercy.
But Long Chen knew it. He narrowed his eyes and looked at City Lord Di Jun. Just when everyone thought that he would be scared, he asked back, "You must be City Lord Di Jun, right? Do you dare to ask me what grave mistake I have made? Is it because I killed your Di Yu? That's ridiculous. That kid is known as the number one genius in history, and I am not much older than him. When geniuses fight, one will definitely die. Jiang Ming of the Slaughter Dragon City is ranked number one in the Hidden Dragon Rank, and he has killed hundreds of thousands of geniuses in his cultivation career. If killing a trash like Di Yu is considered a grave mistake, then Jiang Ming's mistake is hundreds of thousands of times bigger than mine."
Speaking up to here, his tone changed, and he chuckled and said, "I think I understand now. I heard that the Devil Slaying Conference has been used to kill the most vicious and evil human beings, and tens of thousands of innocent lives have been taken by their hands. I don't think that is the case. The Devil Slaying Conference is just a way for the Di Jun Divine City to settle their personal grudges. Whoever defeats the so-called geniuses of the Di Jun Divine City will be escorted here to be executed in front of the world. It seems like the Di Jun Divine City's pride is a bit fragile."
These two sentences were full of sarcasm, but they were also reasonable. All of a sudden, all the people from the Di Jun Divine City were speechless. The hundreds of thousands of people watching did not know how to refute. To be honest, everyone knew that City Lord Di Jun was making a big deal out of nothing by using the Devil Slaying Conference to deal with Long Chen.
City Lord Di Jun's eyes turned cold.
Long Chen looked at him without blinking. Instead of retreating, he took a step forward and said in a clear voice, "The other point is even more ridiculous. When did I create a catastrophe? In the future? What kind of ridiculous reason is that? This so-called City Lord Di Jun, I concluded that you will create a catastrophe for the Human Clan in the future. Then, should I hold the Devil Slaying Conference to kill you? This is the biggest joke in the world. Such an action, such an action, is simply ridiculous. Even if you don't find it shameful, I will."
After saying that, Long Chen raised his head and looked at everyone. There was no fear in his eyes. He also wanted to see who had a reason to kill him. What I wanted to do was that even if the people from the Di Jun Divine City attacked him, they would not be able to stand on the side of reason. Long Chen was in the right and there was nothing to be afraid of.
