Long Chen didn't know what was going on with Mo Xiaolang, but he had only one thought in his mind, and that was to stop the War Devil from going to the Eternal God Domain, no matter the cost.
The War Devil had lost its desire to fight because it looked down on him, so it was now preparing to recover its strength. Long Chen could only stop it, and he had to stop it.
When so many people's lives were in his grasp, nothing else mattered. It was true that in the previous battle, he was almost crushed by this old monster from tens of millions of years ago, but this didn't make him take a single step back.
As the War Devil charged toward the Eternal Life God Domain, Long Chen chased after it with all his might. His regenerative abilities were astonishing, and his injuries healed very quickly. Soon, the War Devil realized that Long Chen was actually following it.
It would be quite troublesome to let a loser follow him.
"So you're in a hurry to die?"
The War Devil didn't plan to shake Long Chen off. Instead, it turned around and looked at Long Chen coldly. He hadn't had any killing intent before, but now he did.
Long Chen answered with an attack.
"It's not over yet."
Every time he fought, he would gain a chance to improve. The more difficult the battle, the greater the reward he would gain.
When the responsibility in his heart grew, and the danger grew heavier, he became even braver than before. The Death-grade Supreme God Emperor War Halberd cooperated with him, unleashing its greatest power.
In the god nation, everyone was supporting Long Chen.
In the Eternal God Domain, all living beings were praying for Long Chen, providing him with an endless supply of the will of all living beings.
Chop, sweep, spin, stab, point.
Every move of the Supreme God Emperor War Halberd was filled with monstrous power. And with the Chaotic Temporal Sea, Long Chen could control time, giving the War Devil a lot of trouble. Long Chen, who had been far away, closed in on it in an instant. Every move of the Supreme God Emperor War Halberd was filled with destructive power, forcing the War Devil back.
"At this point, if you don't get serious, I might not be able to do anything to you."
The cold voice of the War Devil sounded again.
It seemed that he was really angry.
Rip.
The Supreme God Emperor War Halberd swept past in front of him. The War Demon raised its arm and forcefully blocked the violent Supreme God Emperor War Halberd, but was forced back several thousand meters.
Swoosh.
Long Chen caught up again, and his attacks were even fiercer than before.
"Courting death."
War Devil was even more enraged. He couldn't understand Long Chen's suicidal behavior. Actually, Long Chen's idea was simple. He just wanted to stop War Devil. Even if it was just a tiny bit of time, it would be a ray of hope for the people of the Eternal-Life God Domain.
"Then die."
After being beaten back by Long Chen several times in a row, the War Demon was furious.
"There is nothing in the world that cannot break the Great Tribulation Finger."
In the blink of an eye, he was a thousand meters away. He turned around and stabbed with his finger.
It was a simple attack, but it contained a law that was even more terrifying than the Aeonic Invincible Divine Fist. This law, as its name suggested, was called 'Nothing Can Break.'
The Laws cultivated by the War Devil were direct, bold, wild, and domineering. They pressed forward without any room for negotiation. There was only one way to block the all-conquering Finger of Calamity, and that was to possess an even stronger Law that could suppress this all-conquering Law.
The finger pierced through heaven and earth, stabbing towards Long Chen.
It transformed into a giant finger that pierced through heaven and earth. The finger was made up of densely packed divine runes, each of which released a sharp and surging power.
This finger meant a lot to Long Chen.
This crushing power seemed to contain the pinnacle of the War Devil's attack, and it was prepared to kill Long Chen.
What Long Chen sensed now was precisely this dangerous murderous aura.
"Hmph."
The War Devil's cold snort was filled with deep contempt.
The speed of this finger attack was only fast enough for Long Chen to block it with his Supreme Celestial Emperor War Halberd.
Rumble.
He used the Whirlwind Formula and the tip of the Ancient Golden Instant Spear to collide with the Great Tribulation Finger that could break anything in the world. In an instant, death loomed over him.
The Supreme Celestial Emperor War Halberd left his hand and flew behind him. The power of the Great Tribulation Finger that could break anything in the world penetrated his body.
Rumble.
There were no words to describe the injury he suffered.
In short, Long Chen felt like his soul was about to leave his body in this tremor.
"Enjoy the feeling of everything you have crumbling under my law," the War Devil said indifferently.
The War Devil said indifferently. He was well aware of Long Chen's current state. No matter how strong he was, he was already at his limit. Hence, the War Devil didn't look at him any longer and directly turned to leave, heading towards his Eternal Celestial Domain. Long Chen couldn't catch up to him, so he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Ugh …"
Long Chen's vision blurred, and his body was crumbling.
"Chen, what's wrong …?"
At the last moment, Long Chen had severed the Love Thread of Three Lifetimes. Lingxi wasn't injured, but her face was paler than anyone else's.
Everyone in the God Nation was in a panic. They knew very well how terrifying the War Devil's finger attack was. Even though his power had been exhausted to the limit, it was still not to be underestimated.
"Long Chen."
"Chen 'er."
Everyone saw a rather terrifying thing, and that was that the Divine Kingdom they were in was actually in the midst of collapsing.
The only possibility for a God Nation to collapse was that its master was dead.
Although everyone had expected this, they only realized how panicked, sorrowful, and pained they were when it actually happened. In their eyes, this young man was worthy of deep respect. Even though he knew that there was a huge gap between him and his opponent, he still managed to hold his opponent back.
He should have been able to avoid this outcome.
However, he had sacrificed his life for all of this.
Many people started crying. Even Yang You, who was the most stable, had completely collapsed. She almost lost her balance in the God Nation. No matter what, in her heart, Long Chen was her flesh and blood.
But now, even the God Nation was collapsing.
"Xi 'er …"
In a panic, Yang You held Lingxi's hand. She knew that Lingxi's heart was much weaker than hers. She felt that she should comfort her. Otherwise, Lingxi would be in even more pain.
"Aunt You, Chen won't die. He's not dead yet."
Unexpectedly, Lingxi was much more determined than she was. Perhaps her connection with Long Chen was closer. At this moment, Long Chen had indeed survived the most terrifying moment.
Just now, he seemed to have returned to that world of death.
Looking at this boundless world, Long Chen was momentarily stunned. "Am I dead again? This is the second time. In other words, once I die, I … will never be able to return."
This was the end of everything.
However, he still had so many things that he hadn't done. He hadn't truly fulfilled his father's wish. He hadn't figured out what had happened to him. He hadn't been able to see his daughter being born. He hadn't been able to help Mo Xiaolang bring Soyeon back to his side.
He desired all of these things so much.
There were too many things that he hadn't been able to accomplish.
And he hadn't been able to protect this world that belonged to them. Perhaps at this moment, this world that had been passed down for so many years, his hometown, the place that he and his father had risked their lives to protect, was about to become food for the Primeval Troll.
"Damn it."
He had already sent over 30 Primeval Troll into the Death World. He was just one step away. How could he fail now?
"No."
There were 10,000 voices screaming in his heart. He couldn't die now. He definitely couldn't.
"I have to go back."
Everyone was definitely waiting for him. Mo Xiaolang was definitely still fighting. He couldn't leave now.
When he turned back, he actually saw a ray of light. He hadn't entered this world of death. He was just at the entrance of this world.
He saw many people who, after entering this world, walked forward without looking back. There was no way to pull them back.
Long Chen gritted his teeth. There were countless restraints in the outside world. He couldn't go forward at all. Although it might be easy to go forward, he couldn't.
Therefore, he turned around and went back. In the blink of an eye, he crossed that ray of light. His eyes flashed. He saw a green flame. That was the flame of life. After he was hit by the all-conquering finger, the flame of life kept burning and saved him in the end.
It was the flame of life that saved him again.
His life had been extremely weak before and he was on the verge of death. However, the flame of life still pulled him back. But Long Chen deeply understood that it wasn't just the flame of life. There was also his own belief. It was this belief that made him turn back and return to this world to complete his unfinished mission.
Billions of lives were holding him back. They didn't want him to die.
In his heart, there was an even greater responsibility and belief that made him constantly remind himself.
RUMBLE!
The flame of life had grown a lot stronger, and the injuries on his body were rapidly recovering. The tattered World Tree and the power system had reformed, returning to their original state. The wish of all living beings had also returned to his body. It was countless people who had pulled him back from the world of death.
The god kingdom was restored.
Many of the people inside were still weeping, but now they were completely stunned.
"Long Chen isn't dead!"
Everyone was wiping away their tears and cheering. It had been tens of thousands of years since any of them had shed tears, and now that Long Chen had come back to life, they felt incredibly awkward.
"I can't bear to die, everyone."
Now that he was back in the world, Long Chen had a different idea. After adjusting himself, he felt like he was brimming with power.
The War Devil had gone to the Eternal Life God Domain, and he couldn't stay here any longer. There were so many people who needed him.
"War Devil, the battle has only just begun."
Courage was his biggest fog at this time. This courage became a kind of power, a kind of power that was comparable to the will of all living beings. It made his God Spirit Source Strength even more majestic in battle.
