"My God Di Jun, that scoundrel Long Chen has no respect for the laws of the world, and has a cruel personality. He has assaulted and killed my Di Jun City Lord, and the evidence is conclusive. All the gods have seen it with their own eyes. Now that this scoundrel has been subdued by the might of the gods, he is willing to submit to the law. I hope that Ancestor can punish him, so that the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao can be righteous."
"My God Di Jun will definitely send down a calamity to skin him alive, pull out his tendons, dismember his bones, and dismember his corpse to avenge my City Lord. This scoundrel is arrogant and has no respect for the gods. He has committed treason and killed the leaders of my 72 God Cities, as well as the leaders of our descendants in the Dragon God Domain. I beg the gods to use their might to deter him, so that he will never be able to reincarnate, and be reduced to ashes."
Within the Di Jun God City, the old men all knelt on the ground, pleading. They firmly believed that since their Ancestor had reminded them that City Lord Di Jun had been killed by Long Chen, when Long Chen arrived, their Ancestor would definitely send down a calamity to kill Long Chen.
The seventy-two primordial gods were their faith and their lives.
They had dedicated their entire lives to the Ancient Gods. Now that City Lord Di Jun had died, they would definitely not let this matter rest.
It wasn't just the people of the Di Jun God City who knelt down on Mount Di Jun. The thousands of them, as well as the hundreds of thousands of people outside the city, began to recite the words of the two old men. Their voices shook the heavens and earth, causing the entire Mount Di Jun to tremble. Even the statue of Di Jun was trembling, as though the Ancient Gods had manifested themselves.
"I hope that Ancestor can punish him, so that the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao can be righteous."
"Let him never be reincarnated, and be reduced to ashes."
The entire Mount Di Jun was filled with such cries.
For a time, the cries were endless. The scene was huge and incomparably vast.
All the living beings had placed their hopes on the Ancient Gods. All of them looked at the statue of Di Jun with the most sincere gazes, filled with hatred towards Long Chen and devotion towards the statue. It was as though this was truly a trial. As such, even Long Chen himself felt a little nervous when facing the statue of Di Jun.
After all, the other party was the number one god in the ancient times.
The news of the death of City Lord Di Jun was indeed a little strange. Long Chen had come for the manifestation of God Di Jun, and with the protection of the Eternal Night Dragon Emperor, he was not afraid. What he wanted to know was whether the 72 Ancient Gods really existed.
Perhaps in the next moment, he would know.
Unfortunately, amidst the pious shouts, screams, and even cries of countless people, the tallest statue of Di Jun did not respond at all. From the beginning until a quarter of an hour later, there was no response at all, and everyone's throats were almost hoarse from shouting.
In the beginning, they were filled with energy, but now, they were all dumbfounded. Their eyes were filled with defeat and disappointment.
Long Chen's mood was completely relaxed. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Everyone, it seems like your ancestors haven't heard what you're saying. Why don't you raise your voices a little more?"
This was obviously a mockery, but those people still firmly believed in the manifestation of Di Jun, to the point that they really raised their voices and shouted, almost to the point that their internal organs were about to be shouted out, but there was still no movement from Di Jun Divine City.
"Ancestor, please slay this scoundrel! Right now, he's mocking your descendants, mocking your people! How can we tolerate this insult?!"
The few old men were crying, their hearts were filled with endless grievance. The thing they were most looking forward to had really happened, and that was, Di Jun really did not appear and punish Long Chen.
Only Long Chen knew that the gods would not appear, because they had endless secrets. It wasn't as simple as the ancestors of these people in front of him. They were high and mighty, how could they personally appear for City Lord Di Jun, and it was the number one god in the ancient times, Di Jun?
He stood at a high place, looking at everyone looking at the statue of Di Jun with incomparable devotion. That was their faith, and in Long Chen's eyes, it was more like a poison, driving them to contribute their strength.
The people of Di Jun Divine City were probably going crazy from anger.
To Long Chen, this journey had only confirmed one thought in his heart.
He suddenly had a new idea.
Just when the people of Di Jun Divine City and the 72 Divine Cities were still kneeling, Long Chen suddenly said in a clear voice, "Everyone, your god might be asleep, why don't I call him and let him wake up?"
What was he going to do?
Everyone raised their heads, looking at Long Chen in shock. Did he really want to die?
At this moment, what they saw was Long Chen taking out a golden bow and arrow, casually nocking it, pulling it into a full moon shape. It seemed like a simple action, but when everyone saw the dense Dao patterns on the Dragon Enslaved Bow, they were stunned when they remembered that this was what Long Chen used to defeat City Lord Di Jun.
As expected, Long Chen aimed the arrowhead of the Dragon Enslaved Arrow at the head of the statue of Di Jun.
His movements were extremely fast, and before anyone could react, the Dragon Enslaved Arrow had already shot out, turning into a ray of golden light before transforming into a mystical dragon, slamming into the head of the statue of Di Jun. Instantly, the entire Mount Di Jun shook even more violently, and countless rocks flew downwards, causing a large amount of smoke and dust.
Bang.
There was a loud sound.
What surprised Long Chen was that he didn't expect Di Jun's statue to be so hard. When he shot an arrow, the statue actually bounced off the Dragon Imprisonment Arrow and was unharmed. There seemed to be a layer of golden light enveloping Di Jun's statue. The statue was actually protected.
In the blink of an eye, the Dragon Enslaved Arrow was back in his hands, and the statue of Di Jun was completely fine. Of course, there was no sign of the god awakening.
That was a statue that even City Lord Di Jun didn't dare to touch.
In an instant, the entire Di Jun Divine City was in an uproar.
"Blasphemy against the gods, damn it, damn it."
"You actually used such a dirty bow and arrow, what a shame. Long Chen, you have already triggered the wrath of the gods, you will definitely die, you will definitely die."
They clamored like crazy, and most of them were about to go crazy.
There were even some who couldn't help but pounce towards Long Chen, but now, even the Seven-star Reincarnation Realm warriors couldn't do anything to Long Chen, and no one in the entire 72 Divine Cities could stop his power of time.
"Did you see that? The gods don't exist at all. I used a Dao weapon to hurt him, but he didn't even resist." Long Chen sneered at them.
Although it wasn't a good thing to destroy other people's faith, it was mainly because their faith was too blind. After experiencing the Battlefield of the Gods, Long Chen didn't have a good impression of the so-called 72 Ancient Gods, and even to the point of extreme disgust. That was why he was so bold today.
When he said that, it touched the bottom line of the warriors in the Divine City.
In an instant, a large number of warriors pounced towards him. Long Chen couldn't be bothered to deal with these brainless people. To be honest, he was already sure that Di Jun's statue wouldn't have any reaction. This time, it was a waste of time.
As for the problem of reputation, he didn't want to care. These people were like flies, and now that they had caught Long Chen killing City Lord Di Jun and made a big deal out of it, Long Chen couldn't do anything to them. As for Long Qinglan's matter, he could only think of other ways.
But at this moment, something completely unexpected happened.
Even Dragon Emperor Yongye didn't expect it.
Suddenly, the head of Di Jun's statue cracked.
Then, the body collapsed.
Countless cracks could be seen clearly, and it was a ghastly sight, as though there were countless spider webs pouncing on him. Of course, this was just the beginning.
At the next moment, the entire statue of Di Jun, which was hundreds of meters tall, exploded and turned into dust. The wind blew it away, and it disappeared from the world.
At that time, everyone was dumbfounded. No one could react. Even Long Chen's mind was a little blank. He knew that his arrow could not destroy Di Jun's statue.
Of course, he wasn't the one who destroyed Di Jun's statue.
When everyone looked up, they saw an old man floating at the head of Di Jun's statue. Most people might not know who this old man was, but he, Dragon Emperor Yongye, Blue Fire Emperor, and the others definitely knew who he was.
That was the Eternal Dragon Emperor.
The Eternal Dragon Emperor had destroyed Di Jun's statue.
"Who are you?"
In Di Jun Divine City, countless people trembled as they looked at this old man. That was Di Jun's statue, and he had actually destroyed it. No one dared to go up and provoke him. They believed that the gods would definitely punish him, and they also knew that they couldn't defeat someone who could destroy Di Jun's statue.
Of course, there were still a few ignorant people who went up to attack the Eternal Dragon Emperor. After someone took the lead, a dozen or so people immediately followed. There were even Seven-star Reincarnation Tribulation Realm experts among them.
"Courting death, courting death."
The people of Di Jun Divine City were going crazy.
The Eternal Dragon Emperor lowered his head. When everyone approached him, he casually waved his hand, and more than 40 people instantly turned into dust. Not even a speck of dust was left. Those who were about to attack were so scared that they almost wet their pants. Some people who rushed into the air directly fell to the ground, trembling.
The Eternal Dragon Emperor should be like the other four Dragon Emperors, searching for secrets and answers in the Deity Ocean. But now, he suddenly appeared here. Although the distance was not very far, the question was, why did he destroy Di Jun's statue?
If he found something similar to what Long Qinglan had found in the Deity Ocean, then why did he kill people?
In Long Chen's impression, the Eternal Dragon Emperor shouldn't kill innocent people. Even Long Chen didn't dare to kill these people, after all, it would be troublesome.
Turning around, the Eternal Dragon Emperor, the Blue Fire Emperor, and the others were all shocked.
Long Chen looked at the Eternal Dragon Emperor again. When he raised his head, Long Chen found that his pupils had disappeared, and only the whites of his eyes were visible. He looked gloomy and terrifying. At this moment, he was smiling cruelly. After a sneer, he actually turned around to leave.
"Immortal, stop."
The Eternal Dragon Emperor instantly blocked in front of him. Now that she had revealed herself and that address, it seemed to remind some of the experts of their identities.
The Eternal Dragon Emperor indeed stopped. He looked at the Eternal Dragon Emperor with those strange eyes and said, "Junior Sister, don't stop me. I'm going to do something big. Get out of my way."
