The Cosmic Hive.
Now, Long Chen and the three supreme deities were all in the Cosmic Hive, and they were in a similar area.
They would not go deeper, but they could easily see through the shallower areas. Naturally, they knew that Long Chen would not be in that area.
There were hundreds of millions of densely packed passageways in the dark cosmic hive. The three supreme deities were flying through these countless passageways. Finding Long Chen here was much more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack for them. After entering the depths of this place and circling around, the Holy Mother of the Nine Heavens revealed an impatient expression.
"Long Chen, you're the one who issued a challenge to the three of us here. Why are you hiding here like a tortoise?"
Her voice passed through hundreds of millions of passages and echoed in the entire Cosmic Hive. After hearing her voice, many Deity Emperors began to look for a way out of the Cosmic Hive.
They could tell that it was one of the supreme deities in Hongjun Star Sea, Saint Mother Jiutian.
"Isn't Long Chen the number one on the Divine Emperor List?"
"There's a declaration of war between them. They want to fight here. A battle between supreme deities. Don't supreme deities rarely fight each other?"
In fact, it was not because supreme deities rarely fought each other, but because they were too few in number. They were the pinnacle of the Myriad Worlds and would not fight easily.
"It's said that there are three Ultimate Gods, Ultimate God Taihao, Saint Mother Jiutian, and Heavenly Dao Master. They've joined forces to besiege Long Chen. We'd better leave quickly, lest we get hurt."
"It can't be. Isn't Long Chen still a Deity Emperor? He seems to have defeated Emperor Jun, but he hasn't reached the level of an Ultimate God yet. He doesn't seem to have any conflict with them."
"I heard that he took away Ultimate God Taihao's Cosmic Gate and refused to return it. That angered Ultimate God Taihao."
"There's nothing to sympathize with. I can only say that he deserves to die. How dare he occupy the things of a supreme deity, the Taiyi Divine Realm."
In the Cosmic Hive, Deity Emperors and Deity Kings were leaving in large numbers.
About a few days later, Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens' patience ran out. Long Chen did not appear from beginning to end. She said many times, but there was no response. This was simply a kind of mockery and humiliation.
"If you don't come out now, it'll be boring. We can only leave."
Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens and the other two Ultimate Gods were surrounded by an illusory grayish-black fog. It looked simple, but in fact, it had a very strong hallucinogenic effect. The passages in the Honeycomb were also constantly changing. This was the best place to hide.
"What's the rush?"
At that moment, Long Chen, Lingxi, and Mo Xiaolang appeared from one of the passageways far behind them. The three Ultimate Gods suddenly turned around and saw Long Chen's team. The two teams were facing each other in the chaotic cosmic hive.
Their gazes collided, and the rules collided.
When the two sides met, the space was distorted. The nearby cosmic hive was also distorted. Of course, this was initiated by Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens. She had long lost her patience. Now that she finally saw Long Chen, the feeling of being played made her very unhappy.
"Don't lose your mind. Maybe this is the effect he wants." Heavenly Dao Master reminded her.
"Okay."
As soon as Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens nodded, Long Chen's team immediately took action. There were many passageways around them. Long Chen turned around and went into one of them, while Mo Xiaolang and Lingxi went into another. The two teams quickly disappeared from the three Ultimate Gods' sight.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens chased after them.
Long Chen was certain that the other party was actually more anxious than he was. Based on that, he would be able to separate them one day as long as he dragged it on. It was not easy to deal with three Ultimate Gods together.
The three Ultimate Gods chased after Long Chen.
However, just as they were about to enter Long Chen's passageway, Divine Tai Hao suddenly stopped and saw the direction where Lingxi disappeared.
"Tai Hao."
Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens and the others were very fast. It seemed that they would soon catch up with Long Chen.
However, at this moment, Divine Tai Hao directly flashed and chased after Lingxi and Mo Xiaolang.
"Tai Hao, he deliberately separated us," Heavenly Dao Master shouted.
Divine Supremacy Tai Hao didn't listen to him at all. Very quickly, he disappeared before their eyes.
Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens snorted and said, "It seems that he doesn't want to go with us. He just wants his Cosmic Gateway. He wants to beat us at our own game. Let's just ignore him. In the end, we will get the Original Incipient Grade Creator Divine Weapon and have one less person to share it with. From the beginning, his role was just to bring Long Chen here."
They were always sticking to Long Chen.
Long Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Divine Tai Hao would follow Lingxi and the others after the first time he caused trouble. It seemed that Divine Tai Hao had some changes in his mind. However, it also saved Long Chen a lot of trouble.
It was enough for him to understand Divine Tai Hao and Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens.
Next, Lingxi and Mo Xiaolang would hold Divine Tai Hao back. At least, they wouldn't let him get close to Long Chen's battlefield.
After all, although the Cosmic Hive was huge, once a battle between Ultimate Gods happened, it would cause a huge commotion and be extremely destructive. Even if they attracted Divine Tai Hao away, he might return during the battle. Therefore, they had to attract him far enough.
Divine Tai Hao must also know what Long Chen's goal was.
However, he wanted such an opportunity. Since Long Chen had made such a plan, he had to separate from Lingxi and the others to face Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens. Therefore, Lingxi and the others were also taking a risk. They had to compete with Divine Tai Hao. Divine Tai Hao seemed to have guessed that Long Chen would do that, so he chased after them with great difficulty.
Whether he would catch up and take back the Gate of the Universe or Lingxi and the others were enough to hold him back, it all depended on the abilities of the two sides.
Lingxi had the Gate of the Universe. With the cooperation of Mo Xiaolang and Lingxi, Long Chen was quite relieved. Once he couldn't hold Divine Tai Hao back, Long Chen would let them leave the Cosmic Hive and stay as far away from Divine Tai Hao as possible.
Then, he was the only one left.
"Long Chen, is this fun? It seems like there's no end."
Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens followed behind him at all times. She was getting more and more angry.
"Interesting. I have plenty of time to play with you."
"Then you'll never get that drop of blood."
"You'll never get what I have. It's the same."
Long Chen said indifferently.
"Aren't you afraid of making a mistake? Perhaps Divine Tai Hao will catch your two helpers. Moreover, if I make a big noise, he'll come back."
"That's not for you to worry about."
Long Chen smiled coldly.
"Don't provoke me. I'm still polite to you now. I only want that Original Incipient Grade Creator Divine Weapon. But if you provoke me, it won't be as simple as that Creator Divine Weapon." Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens gritted her snow-white teeth.
"What? Do you still want my people?"
Long Chen turned his head and smiled casually.
"It's your life."
It had been a long time since Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens heard someone talk to her in such a tone. She was holy, noble, and eternal. She was the Supreme God. Usually, all she heard was worship, worship, and compliment.
"Then I don't have to worry. Otherwise, it won't be good if word gets out that you're robbing the cradle."
Long Chen laughed. In fact, in terms of speed, Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens was already very fast. She had surpassed Long Chen and seemed to be about to catch up.
"Hmph."
Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens' eyes spun rapidly.
A fierce chase ensued.
After asking Lingxi's side, they still kept a certain distance from Hierarch Tai Hao. Long Chen was relieved. Seeing that Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens was still so crazy, he suddenly had an idea. He avoided Heavenly Venerate and talked to Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens in private.
"Let's discuss it. To be honest, you know that there's no end to this. We can't do anything to each other. I can only accept a one-on-one fight with you. If I win, that drop of blood will be mine. If you win, the Primordial Dragon Pagoda will be yours. You don't have to share it with the other two. This is a matter between you and me. There's no need to involve others. What do you think?"
Long Chen knew Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens from her reputation. She was definitely a person who valued money as much as her life.
Such a person would be willing to share the Primordial Dragon Pagoda with others if she was so eager to get it.
Because of this, Long Chen was certain that he could succeed in this cosmic hive. After all, the other three were not of one mind. They each had their own ideas. For example, Heavenly Venerate beside her was actually the first trap for Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens.
After that failure, he was now a fighting force for Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens. However, the problem was that Long Chen had the Life and Death Realms. He would not allow them to surround him.
"It's called the Primordial Dragon Pagoda, right?"
Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens was not in a hurry to agree to Long Chen. Instead, she muttered the name of the Primordial Dragon Pagoda without batting an eyelid. However, she knew very well that Hierarch Tai Hao was getting farther and farther away.
Just like that, the chase continued for half a day. The farther Hierarch Tai Hao was, the more difficult it was for Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens and the other two to surround Long Chen.
Long Chen knew that she must have been struggling internally during this time.
"For you to reach this point, you must know the principle of seeking wealth from danger. Only by following my bottom line will you have this opportunity. Are you afraid of me?"
The greatest temptation that Long Chen gave her was the opportunity to occupy the Primordial Dragon Pagoda alone. She could directly obtain it and even refine it, surpassing Heavenly Venerate and Hierarch Tai Hao. This was a huge opportunity.
Looking back, Saint Mother of the Nine Heavens' colorful eyes were already filled with an incomparably intense divine light.
"I'll fight. The problem is, how will you shake off Heavenly Venerate?"
Long Chen smiled. He had finally achieved his goal.
