This crisis came very quickly. Although he had already been aware of this since he came here, he was willing to take the risk for his father. This was his responsibility as a son and also his desire.
In the blink of an eye, the nine-colored mist in front of him fluctuated rapidly as if it had sensed Long Chen's living aura. In an instant, it rushed towards Long Chen. It was endless nine-colored mist. If he encountered this nine-colored mist again, Long Chen estimated that he wouldn't be able to stop it.
In that instant, the nine-colored mist bombarded the gate, causing the whole gate to tremble violently. The five-hundred-meter-tall gate was blasted open in an instant, and then endless nine-colored mist surged in. They didn't directly attack Long Chen, but circled behind Long Chen and instantly blocked Long Chen's path of retreat.
It could be seen that the nine-colored mist also had a certain degree of intelligence.
"Be careful!"
Just as the nine-colored mist surrounded Long Chen, leaving Long Chen with no way of retreat, the nine-colored mist behind him suddenly rushed towards Long Chen. From the looks of it, it seemed that Long Chen wanted to have a life and death struggle with it.
This sudden change was beyond Long Chen's expectations. When the nine-colored mist descended, Long Chen used Time Storm to block it. He treated the nine-colored mist as insects, as living creatures. Sure enough, under his Time Storm, a large amount of nine-colored mist disappeared into thin air and turned into powder. However, there were too many of them. After destroying a batch, endless nine-colored mist surged up, forcing Long Chen into the abyss that he had been close to and blocking his path of retreat.
In that instant, the gate was sealed by the endless nine-colored mist. Even the entire palace was filled with the nine-colored mist. Long Chen couldn't get out of this abyss at all. He could escape from the gap in the sky, which was the place where the nine-colored mist in the abyss connected with the sky, but there was more nine-colored mist there.
For a moment, Long Chen was trapped here. Endless nine-colored mist surrounded him. Although it didn't attack immediately, it was almost there. Endless nine-colored mist danced around him and even made a terrible 'zi zi' sound, like the chirping of insects.
"I can't get out."
Long Chen couldn't help but frown. If he rushed out now, it was likely that he would be eaten up before he could get out. Currently, few people in the world were his opponents, but in this battlefield of the gods, there were still strange things that he couldn't resist.
Under the suppression of the nine-colored mist, Long Chen even sank into the abyss.
At this moment, the scene could only be described as soul-stirring. It was much more dangerous than when he fought City Lord Di Jun.
Long Chen felt that there were living things wriggling below.
He couldn't help but look down, and found a scene that he couldn't imagine at first.
This seemingly bottomless abyss, the surrounding mountain walls were actually covered with a kind of insect.
The small ones were more than ten meters long.
The long ones were more than a hundred meters long, and even several hundred meters long. They were like sticks that stuck to the mountain wall.
This was a type of pure flesh worm, but its entire body was sparkling and translucent. It had a nine-colored radiance, just like a gem. It gave off a very beautiful radiance in this abyss. If it was somewhere else, it would have been decorated into a fairyland.
However, such a beautiful 'meat worm' was a terrifying monster to Long Chen. This was because he could see that the nine-colored mist that surrounded the entire Divine Bone Palace, or rather the Battlefield of the Gods, and the nine-colored mist that surrounded him, were actually the smoke released by the 'Nine-Colored Bug', or rather, the 'larvae'.
No matter what, all the nine-colored mist was created by the Nine-Colored Insects.
This place was called the Nine-Colored Palace, so that was what it meant.
The battlefield of the gods, the Bone Palace, and the Nine-Colored Insects, what kind of secrets were there?
Before Long Chen could think, just as he entered the abyss and saw the Nine-Colored Insects, the endless nine-colored mist that had accumulated over the years swarmed over once more. In just an instant, it almost drowned Long Chen.
Long Chen was also thinking about how to deal with these terrifying things.
First, he used the Weeping Blood Dragon Souls.
He summoned the million Weeping Blood Dragon Souls and wanted to rely on them to charge out. However, when the million Weeping Blood Dragon Souls appeared and surrounded Long Chen, and just as they were about to charge into the sky, the endless nine-colored mist instantly drowned the Weeping Blood Dragon Souls and devoured them.
It had always been the slaughter dragons that killed others, but today, the other party had more people than them, and they were the ones being killed and devoured.
Under the terrifying swarm of nine-colored mist, Long Chen's Weeping Blood Dragon Souls couldn't support him to charge into the sky. After all, the nine-colored mist was endless.
He quickly put away the Weeping Blood Dragon Souls to prevent himself from suffering too much damage. If this continued, he would die here.
He used Time Storm again. This was the most effective method, and it could turn a large area of the nine-colored mist into powder. However, the nine-colored mist was endless, and who knew how many Nine-Colored Insects were still producing them. When he used up all his energy, wouldn't he die here?
The situation seemed to be a bit urgent.
After dealing with three or four attacks, the other party still attacked, leaving almost no room for Long Chen to breathe. Long Chen could already smell danger and death.
At this critical moment, he had an idea and set his sights on the Nine-Colored Bugs. Without a word, he formed the Dragon Enslaved Bow and the Dragon Enslaved Arrow with 700 dao patterns and aimed at the fattest Nine-Colored Bug in his field of vision.
It was a full 100 meters long, and its tail was spewing a large amount of nine-colored mist.
"You're the one who's controlling the nine-colored mist."
Long Chen sneered.
Release the arrow.
The Dragon Imprisonment Arrow turned into a dragon, and Long Chen used the explosive rule. With his current strength and the Dragon Imprisonment Bow, the powerful destructive power was released. The Nine-Colored Insects couldn't block it. It was obvious that they weren't good at defense, so Long Chen's Dragon Imprisonment Arrow directly pierced through the Nine-Colored Insect.
Then, it exploded.
The entire Nine-Colored Insect exploded, turning into endless nine-colored mist that joined the group attacking Long Chen. Then, some of its organs exploded and turned to dust.
Before dying, the eyeless Nine-Colored Insect let out an earth-shattering scream. The surrounding Nine-Colored Insects squirmed downwards in fear. Even the nine-colored mist surrounding Long Chen slowed down, but it still stared at Long Chen. It didn't give Long Chen any chance of escaping. It was even preparing for the next attack.
"This is still difficult."
Long Chen was still trapped here, and he only had a dozen meters of space to move around. He couldn't even tell which side was up and which side was down.
"Let's kill a few more first."
He started to descend, and the Dragon Imprisonment Arrow returned to his hand. Using the Dragon Imprisonment Arrow, Long Chen aimed at a Nine-Colored Insect. The Nine-Colored Insect seemed to feel it, and it went down again, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
The nine-colored mist went berserk once again, not giving Long Chen a chance. Long Chen unleashed the Time Storm again and again. Very quickly, he was exhausted, but the nine-colored mist was still endless. He could already sense a terrifying crisis. If he continued to be trapped like this, he would really lose his life.
"How can I get out?"
This was the question he and Li Xuanji were thinking about all the time. They were racking their brains for a solution.
The Nine-Colored Insects were afraid that Long Chen would kill them, so they were basically going down. Long Chen could only go down and threaten them at any time. Otherwise, the nine-colored mist would quickly swallow Long Chen.
Because of this, the deeper Long Chen went, the farther he was from the exit.
But he had no choice. If he didn't go down, the nine-colored mist would have nothing to worry about.
During this process, if the nine-colored mist attacked, Long Chen would shoot a Nine-Colored Insect to warn them. This was the only way.
Now, this endless loop continued. Long Chen tragically found that he didn't know how far he had fallen, and it was even harder to get out.
"Are you afraid?"
He gripped the Dragon Imprisonment Bow and looked at his opponent seriously. Then he used his mind to communicate with Li Xuanji.
"No."
"Why?"
Facing this kind of death, in truth, even Long Chen felt disgusted. Who would want to be swallowed by something like this? How painful would that be?
"Because … I don't think you will die. You won't die, and I won't die."
Li Xuanji's voice was filled with gentleness and certainty.
She trusted him so much and gave him endless power. As the saying went, the boat would cross the bridge when it came to the end. Before he died, he shouldn't give up or be afraid. Otherwise, how could he live up to her trust in him?
He continued to go down and kill the Nine-Colored Insects. The Nine-Colored Insects basically didn't have much attack power and were easily killed. However, Long Chen didn't dare to be too cruel. If he killed all the Nine-Colored Insects, it would be the real apocalypse. Right now, he could still threaten them.
In a daze, Long Chen saw something special on the mountain wall below.
It was a small blade of grass.
In this barren land, there was such a green blade of grass. It was truly a bit inconceivable. It was even emitting an enchanting radiance, bringing with it a rich green color. It was incomparably powerful, powerful, and filled with a terrifying vitality.
More importantly, there was no nine-colored mist within ten meters of this blade of grass. The nine-colored mist seemed to be afraid of this blade of grass.
